The Newnan postoffioe, it Is said
will be without a postmaster on the
22d of March end that tbi re are al
ready sixteen applicants for it. Post
offloss are popularly believed to be
good things and are therefore In ac
tive demand. We have a poßtoffl"'.
here in Columbus that, it Is hoped,
will have a new master In It b dere
many months, and the number of
faithful Democrats who are willing
to become the ntw master far ex
ceeds the number wno have stuck
their beads up at Newnan as nppii
cants. We have heard of several who
want the place and do not hesitate
to announce It. and to ask for the
help ot friends to get it. While there
are others, at least one who It said to
want It, but whoso petition we have
not seen, but who roll a on powers
supposed to be potent, enough to se
cure it without reference to the pref
eranoe of the Columbus public. He
doubtless feels as Vanderbilt did
the public be d d. Whether his
hopes will be realised or not no one
can now tell, and much may depend
upon the revelations of a few j ts of
••electric light" that may be poured
upon and dispel the hez»
that may have gathered
about a few transactions of the past
tint are not altogether forgotten by
men yet living. •‘Electric lights”
were paraded in search of other’s
faults as thick as Chinese lanterns
two or three years ago, but falling to
discover what their engineers sought
to expose, they were withdrawn from
the p ibllc eye; but they were not ex
tinguished, and are now in other
hands, and are directed by those who
know who the “skuoits” are and just,
where to find them. And having
postoffioe on the brain ourself, at
this time, we will give thesut j ict of
our future postmaster a little more
attention than we have heretofore
done.
WASHINGTON LETTER.
From oat Corr>«ponA*nt.
Washington, Feb. 9. 1885.
The Capital during the week seem
to have shifted to N w York
At least lj.<w Y >rk bus been the cen
tre of political interests, but not halt
as many Democratic 0 mgreesmen
went to see the President elect »►
were reported to have gone. A few
Who went have returned, snd seem
to be, one and all, much pleased wii b
what they have seen of the cominc
man, who Is d as a coiirteoiu
listener and a frank talker. Affecta
tion and myeteriousne»a are not
among the faults of Mr. Oieve'and.
Nothing has be»n learned about the
Cabins’; It Iseviientlv the Intention
of the President to take «l| the time
law allows him to build ft, and since
bis Cabinet can do po'hing until after
the 4th of March, this deliberation
woi Id seem to be proper and pel tic.
A certain class of government clerk
are quietly preparing to go. They
are the chiefs of bureaus and their
chief clerks; also a large number who
are consclpus ot their shady poll' Ida I
antecedents. A large majority are
hoplngtbtU they may avoid that fell
■weep of the new broom. The opin
ion of tboee who have a practical
knowledge of affairs in the govern
tnent offices is that therpcan be no
real improvement io government
work until nine-tenths of the clerks,
who are drones and politicians, have
been swept out and replaced, not
necesaa/liy by Democrats exclusively
but by competent men and reil
workers.
There.js a great deal of local talk
about the inauguration, which is now
only three weeks distant. The Demo
crats, of course, desire that the
parade, the ball, t.he fireworks, the
decorations and the crowd, shall
compare in respectability, taste, and
splendor with any previous similar
occasion. I think their vanity will
be gratified. There will be a fine
parade of citizen soldiery and civic
organizations. The night will be
painted in ail the hues of the rain
bow by,fireworks; and the ball. In a
ball large enough to accomodate
twelve thousand, and which any one
can attend tor the consideration of
five dollars will be simply stupen
dous.
General H incock declined to lead
the parade from the White House to
the Capital on the ground of a no nt
death in bls family, and General Mo-
Olellw},.towb om the bonor was nextj
tenderer, declined cn account ot en
gagements. It is welj for
ueith r ot these old gentlermn can
sic a horse as well as he couid twen
ty-five years and the leader of
this parade must bestride a goodly
steed. General Slocum has accepted
tha aana arand of the ephemeral army, i
■i,nd there Is no doubt that the brief
osmpatgn will bo successful.
As It U antb inated that a greater
lumber of mld’ary organ.zitlena
ind ctvfe associations will be in lice
in the fourth of Murcb than wete
•ver assembled hereon Inauguration
lay, the task to be at signed to Gen*
Slocum Is not an easy one. Four
years ago Gen. Sherman, with a laig
umber of aids, found the labor ot
mirstialiing end moving the parade
a greater one than be had anti' ip i < <l.
ft is nominally an honor, but in Mot
i very laborious responsibility »o as
siirne the direction and m <v ra'-nt of
i vast culiec l ion of organise mns in
the brief time allowed for such a
parade.
Ou Wednesday the formal counting

but one, the Millitary Academy bill,

But it is not. apparent that there 1.

be passed before the 4th of March

General 8t eridan, the marshal ot

his orders and appointed bis aids.
The first division of the precession
will be commanded by General
Ayres, the eecond by General Fitz

Among th« many quust’ona liable
to confuse and puzzle the reader Is
the course of Italy's attitude In the
present diffl ,ultv between England
an I the M<h 11. It mav be said that
strictly speaking, this little kingdom
h'« nothing whatever to do with
Egypt.
But the It diac, government, is wee
and speculative. Sooner or later the
lav must, come when this p-lncipilitv
will need a prompt muri’ime friend
and allv. Nit m-ny veers have
nsssed slncethe need whs keenly felt,
A batter time for securing this hll v
will never be afforded. end hence
Italy has seiz -d upon the present.
A gradual encroachment of his old
enemies. France and Austria upon
Africa and Turkey, is an ever aux
lou j theme with the Italian a'afes
man, France has hemmed in the
little “boot” kingdom by land and
aea and established opposite her rich
nor’s threatening stations In Algiers.
Moreover she has strengthened end
increased her interests In the far
Erst, toward which Italy has so long
looked with eager eyes. Austria’s
attitude toward Turkov leaves n<»
hope for J’alv In that direction.
The complications in Ei>yp f have
given the first opportunity tor the
peninsular kingd 'tn to extend Its
arms and obtain an Interest beyond
the Suez. With England’s
consent, doubtless and acting
up >n a secret treaty, it bi>i
-eized and annexed the R>d sen
coast from Ruakltu to Maeser ih, »
distance of two hundred miles, and
