A Pennsylvania politician, just re

In that State, predicts that the
Qroenbock mon will hold the bal

A few years ago Daniel Drew was

Gallipous, Ohio, where the yello .
fever has gotten a foothold and
created such a panic. Is high up the
Ohio river, being opposite the West
Virginia shore of that river. It can
not be far from a very elevated or
mountainous region.
Thebe Bailors—all foreigners, as
their names would indicate—were
drowned near Tybee, below Savau
nah, on Teusday, by a.heavy seadriv
ing a small boat on the breakers and
capsizing it. They belonged to the
bark Tulsko, Capt. Von Thulen.
Euoene Hale, who has boon beaten
in Maine by a Greenbacker, is chair
man of the Republican Congressional
Committee, and has bad chief direc
tion of the couduct of the campaign
this year. It is a bad presage for
an army for its leader to fall in the
beginning of tlie battle.
The New York Post considers it “a
reasonable calculation that after the
mercantile failures-and suspensions
to the first instant, when the bank
rupt law expired, every branch of
trade will be sounder, and in respect
to credits more trustworthy than it
has been for many years.”
The railroad pool meeting at At
lanta did nothing savo submit the
new classification of frleghts ar
ranged by Mr. Virgil Towers, t.he
Commissioner, toacommittee, which
will report to the annual meeting on
the 2d of October. Many changes
are recommended in the old rates.
Cabroll County.— The vexed ques
tion in regard to the delegation from
Carroll County is settled, as a special
dispatch advises us, by tho success of
the Henry R. Harris ticket at the pri
mary election on Wednesday. Wo
fear that this result will only make
the parties more Impracticable and
Inoreaso the difficulty of making a
nomination.
The Sumter Republican says that
Mr. Jno. Patrick, of Montezuma,
Ga., was run over and killed just the
other side of Flint river, last Satur
day. He was on his way to Ogle
thorpe, walking on the track; was
deaf and could not hear the whistle
blow. An extra train following the
down passenger ran over him in the
curve of the (rack.
The Bank Commissioners of Cali
fornia have ordered the Farmers and
Mechanics’ Savings Bank of San
Francisco into liquidation. It owes
$305,000 to depositors, besides $44,-
385 to other parties. The Commis
sioners are of opinion that the depos
itors will ultimately be paid in full,
but the capital stock and reserve
fund will bo required to do it.
An Important experiment is being
tried in the Boston public schools,
where books have been excluded
from the primary departments and
oral exercises and object lessons sub
stituted. She young pupils are es
pecially taught to express ideas in
their own language. The teachers
lecturo or talk daily about suoh
knowledge as little children may best
acquire.
Thehs is no longer a shadow of
doubt, says the Nashville American,
that this fall will be the practical
settlement of the financial question.
It is the issue everywhere through
out the United States. Not another
issue of any kind, political or eco
nomical, is cutting any decent figure
in politics. The lines at last are
squarely drawn throughout the
Union with the decided advantage
with the Democrats.
We are glad to see, that at the
meeting held in Savannah on Tues
day night, to consider the subject of
a Southern Paoillc Railway, Ex-Beu
ator Norwood spoke in opposition to
Tom Scott’s and A. H. Stephens’
“Texas Pacific,’’ and in support or
the “Southern Paciflo” road. Reso
lutions in accordance with Mr. Nor
wood’s views were unanimously
adopted by the meeting. We were
confident that Mr. N rwood, thor
oughly understanding this subject,
would give proper direction to the
action of the meeting.
The New Orleans JDenmrat of
Wednesday prints a comparative ta
ble of the number of deaths in that
city from yellow fever from its com
mencement in the years 1853, 1867
and 1878 up to the 56th day, which
is this year up to thG 11th Inst. The
following is the summary: 1853,
6,119 deaths; 1867, 1,434 death; 1878,
1,638 deaths. It will be seen that,
terrible as the epidemic is this year,
it is nothing like as bad as in 1853,
and but little worse than In 1867.
But it is noticeable that the fever of
1833 had begun to decline by the 10th
of September, whereas do diminution
of deaths this season is yet visible.
A feeling of general debility and
a lack of interest in affairs indicate
a sluggish circulation of the blood,
which will, in the end,cause sickness.
By the prompt and judicious use of
Dr. Bull’s Blood Mixture all threat
ened trouble may be avorlejj.
JIH. MTKriIF.XM A>D IH. FELTON.
Wo copy elsewhere a letter of
Hon. Alex. H. Stephens, giving his
reasons for supporting Hon. Win. H.
Felton in his independent candidacy
for Congress. Messrs. Stephens and
Felton started out in the same "inde
pendent” yawl before the meeting of
the Democratic nominating conven
tions in their respective districts.
Subsequently Mr. Stephens, with his
famous “skillet,” was picked up and
taken on board - by tho staunch
steamer Regular Democracy, but not
until a black, rakish-looking craft,
bearing vary much tho appearance
of a Radical pirate, was seen ap
proaching him with the evident pur
pose of giving him aid and com
fort. It was apparent that he would
make the tripanyhow, on one craftor
the other, and the officers of the
Demooratic ship deemed it the best
policy to take hitn up. In Dr. Fel
ton’s case, the regular Democracy re
solved to pursue a different course
and let him to “paddle his own
canoe” alone. That is the difference
between them as regards their re
spective relations with the Demo
cratic party, and it Is no wonder
that each has a kind feeling and so
licitude for tho other’s success.
Neither can oppose tho other with
out condemning bis own course.
We do not deny what Mr. Stephens
says about Dr, Felton’s ability and
his uniform support of Democratic
measures in Congress. We believe
that he has been more uniform than
Mr. Stephens in this respect. But
that is a personal matter—not
one affecting the integrity or usa
ges of the Democratic party or
loyalty to its organization. Some
time before the meeting of tho Dem
ocratic Convention of the 7th Dis
trict, Dr. Felton publicly announced
himself unconditionally a candidate
for re-election, thus repudiating the
authority of the Democratic party of
tho District. True, he did not use
such terms of criminatioa and de
fiance as Mr. Stephens did in an
nouncing Ids Independent candidacy;
but the purpose to ignore and defy
the organized authority of the party
was none the less manifest.
We believe, as Mr. Stephens says,
that party organization and nomina
tion are only necessary "when unity
of action is essential fori he success
of principles.” But who is to be the
judge of suoh necessity? Is the can
didate to be the judge? If so, then
Dr. Felton is not In insubordination
to his party organization. But if
the Democratic party is to be
the judge of its own necessities
and its own policy, then is Dr. Fel
ton in the revolt and rebellion. We
hold that the principle of pauy or
ganization involves as well the right
and an d to decide whether a
nomination ought to bemadeatall,
as to determine who shall be the
nominee. Therefore, while we are
opposed to making party nomina
tions when we think,as Mr.Stephens
expresses 11, that unity of action is
not essential to the success of prin
ciple, we recognize the right of the
Democratic party to decide this
question, and If it determines to
make a nomination against our op
position, we shall acquiesce and sup
port the nominee. Mr. Stephens tfhd
Dr. Felton assume to decide for the
party whetherlt ought to make nom
inations or not, and then hold them
selves at liberty to oppose tho nomi
nee if one Is selected against their
fiholoe. Wo cannot seo in their claim
anything that distinguishes It from
•elf-willed, arbitrary opposition to
Democratic discipline and authority
—just such opposition as Mr. Hilliard
made in this district in 1876.
THE I.EE COO NTT QUESTION.
Correspondents of tho Montgomery
Advertiser and the Columbus En
quirer fire shots at this paper in and s
oussing the question of the regular
ity of the appointment of the first
set of delegates from Dee county to
tho Eufaula convention. It is late
in the day to discuss this question
through the newspapers, as the con
vention is now in sessiou ; but it was
impossible to draw out these corres
pondents and those agreeing with
them any sooner—they evidently did
not want any examination of the
matter and avoided it as long as pos
sible. We do not intend to go over
it at this late day, but only to notice
one or two flings at the Times.
The correspondent of the Enquirer
calls ours a "self-interested newspa
per outside of the district and State.”
Now, in the first place, the discus
sion of this matter through the
Times was not done editorially, but
by Alabama correspondents, and
those who differed with them could
have had us free access to our col
umns as they had. This they well
knew- we have proclaimed it so of
ten. In the next place, we derive our
interest in the Third Congress
ional District of Alabama through
the favor of its own people. We be
lieve that our paper has as large a
circulation in that distriot as any
paper published within its bounds,
and if any of them dispute it, we are
willing to make a properly authenti
cated showing with them. In the third
place, we (the editor) live and vote
in the district, and have a personal
as well as a journalistic interest in
its politics.
But these correspondents, in the
regular style of a pettifogger making
special pleas and quibbling about
small maters,-base tbeir main argu
ment upon the fact that the Execu
tive Committe of Lee county did not
call three county conventions, and
that Major Shorter said that they
did, and that we said Major S. was
correct. This is a pitiful evasion.
Tho Executive Committee wan
charged with three duties—first,
the making of provision for
the appointment of delegates to
the State Convention; second, ar
ranging for the nomination of can
jdidates for the Legislature; and
I third, tho making of provision for
the appointment of delegates to the
Congressional District Convention.
It discharged the first of these duties
by calling a county Convention to
appoint delegates to tho State Con
vention—the call limiting its powers
to this objeot. It discharged tho se
cond duty by calling another county
convention to nominate candidates
to the Lsgisl.iture—tills call also
prescribing t hat. objeot only. Now,
what could have been
tho iufereoce but that
the committee would have to call a
third convention to select delegates
to tho Congressional District Con
vention? But Instead of doing this,
the county convention called ex
pressly and exclusively to nominate
Candidates for tho Legislature also
selected delegates to the Congres
sional District Convention. The Ex
ecutive Committee. then, must have
planned out three conventions in the
first instance, but failed to cull tho
third, and instead of doing so, al
lowed the second convention to usurp
the powers and duties which the
thiril would and should have exer
cised. This is the charge, and It is
an even graver one, so far as the
committee is concerned, than the
charge that it called three conven
tions but only two of them met
would have been.
In this connection, to show that
some of Col. Samford’s friends (if not
Col. Samford himself) admit the ir
regularity of the appointment of the
first set of delegates from Leo coun
ty, we copy the following paragraph
from the Opelika Leader of yester
day—a paper which "hoisted” the
name of Col. Samford as its candi
date for Gongresa at. the head of its
columns months ago, and has it fly
ing there yet:
“We have purposely refrained from
saying anything about the manner of
selecting the delegates in our own
county, because wo thought it slightly
irregular, but believed the delegation
chosen fairly represented the senti
ment of a large majotity of the Dem
ocratic voters of the county.
Not lo mince mat ters, <ho del
egates chosen are regarded as
so.ld for Col. Samford, and we believe
if a primary eiectiou to choose dele
gates were held now the result would
not be changed. We are ready to
admit that Col Samtord has enemies,
and the other candidates have friends
in Lee county, but so far as our ob
servation goes the advocates of Col,
Samford’s nomination are largely iu
the majority.”
LETTER OF HON. A. H. STEPHENS.
His Seasons for Supporting Hon. W. H.
Felton.
From tbe Rome Tribune, 11th.
LIBERTY H ALL, CIUWFOItDVILLE, GA., I
September 5, 1878. j
Mr. J. A. Baker, Attorney-at-Law,
Cartersville, Oa:
My beau Sir— Your letter of the 3d
inst. was received yesterday. You
desire to learn my opinion concern
ing the poliiieal division and excite
ment now existing in the 7th district,
and are pleased to say that a great,
many who desire to do right would
be glad to have the benefit, of my
counsel in this Congrosaional
race.
Now while I have no inclination to
obtrude my opinions upon the people
at any time, or on any matter, yet I
have no hesitancy in giving them,
when sought., upon ail quesiionaof
public policy or general interest.
You ask me several direct and
specific questions, which I shall pro
ceed to answer briefly in the order in
which you put thorn.
1. "Who would you support for
Congress were you in this district?”
To this I reply, I would unhesitat
ingly support Dr. Felton.
Your second question is iu these
words:
“Why would you support him?”
To this I say, because of his admit
ted ability, his unquestioned integri
ty, high moral character and distin
guished stand he has taken in the
Congress of tho United States. His
past experience greatly increases his
capacity forfuture usefulness iuserv
ing his constituents. No new mem
ber, however, able or brilliant, can
serve his constituents with as much
efficiency as one who has experience
in the service.
Again, you oak, “is Dr. Felton’s
candidacy calculated to destroy and
disrupt tne Democratic party?” To
this, I have only to say that I can
not see that it can have any suoh
teudeucy or result. The canvass iD
the 7th seems to be moro of a person
al than a party character. Dr. Fel
tou has been twice elected to Con
gress by the people of this district.
At the last election bis majority was
24G2. This shows he then had the
confidence of his constituents by a
very large majority. Has he done
anythingsiuce to forfeit it? It sol
am not at all aware of it. His acts
and speeches iu the pres
ent Congress have but added ad
ditional lustre to his fame as an
orator and a statesman. H.is speech
es upon the financial and quarantine
questions were amongst the best de
livered in Congress. His fidelity and
devotion to the great principles of
constitutional liberty, which consti
tute the Democratic creed as set
forth by Mr. Jefferson, has never
been questioned so far as I am aware.
In his Congressional career
he bus illustrated aud defended
these principles, ns well as the
rights aud interests of his con
stituents, by an energy,industry and
laborious discharge of duty with an
ability aud eloquence unsurpassed,
in my opinion, by any previous Rep
reseutative of the district, not ex
cepting Lumpkin, Underwood,
Wright nor Young. Why then should
he be displaced for any other Demo
crat in tho distriot? I’arty orgauiz i
lions I believe in. It is always prop
er aud necessary when unity of ac
tion is essential for the success of
principles.
But in this case no such state of
things exists, as I understand it.
Men and parties are known by their
principles, and not by the machinery
which coutrols nominations. Iu my
opiuion nominations by party organ
ization shoultl always be controlled
by views looking to the ablest and
truest men representing the princi
ples of the party, and to the favorites
of the people. Iu this view I think
the Ringgold convention, it it
had looked solely to the
peuce and harmony of the parties,
and the good of the country, would
have either nominated Dr. Felton or
offered no opposition to his re-elec
tion. Their action was the cause of
all this strife and excitement, and
from which it seems to me, no good
am result either to the Democracy
or the couutry. In politics, as iu
everything else, in my opinion, as a
general rule, the safest course is to
let well enough alone.
Yours truly,
1 A. n. Stephens.
The Home Water Mills Consumed by
Fire.
On Saturday night at 11 o’clock the
cry of fire was sounded by tbe watch
man at tho Rome Railroad depot,
Hd proved to be caused by the burn
ing of the Rome Wu'er Mills, owned
by the heirs of Mr. J. J. Cohen, de
ceased. Tills was not only one of the
most valuable nieces of property in
Floyd county, hut one of the leading
institutions in this sections of the
country. The house was a three sto
ry frame building with all the most
modern appointments of machinery
and convenience. The property was
valued at $20,000 and insured in the
Southern Mutual, of Athens, Ga., for
$5,000. The estate has lost a valua
ble piece of property and the city
a valuable industry. The mill con
tained two car loads of wheat.one car
load of rye, and a half car load of
flour, besides bran, meal, corn. eto.
We hope the mill will be rebuilt.—
