New Party Movement.—A meeting wan held in Philadelphia on WeJneHtUy evening, for tho purpop.e of forming h new political organization, “to act to gether under the new Constitution for the election of good men for Coun cils and other ward ofllcors.” It is to bo called “The Constitutional Citizens’ Party. The remark lately attributed to Caleb Cushing, that tho sinking of the Virgin- ius had complicated affairs with Spain, zooms likely to prove correct. The newspapers at Havana charge the United Htates authorities with having purposely sunk the vessel, nml if a similar belief is entertained at Madrid it may make Mr. Cushing's reception there much less eordial than it would otherwise have been. Mil. A. G. Mint a at (well known as Into Republican editor uud Federal oftloe- holder) has written a lottor to tlio Grflin JVfiM, in which he favors the call of a State Convention, pro ruled we can have one composed of only 41 dolegnlos, one from each Senatorial district. Hut “Uncle Handy’’ ought to lmvo known that we can not have Mich a convention. Tho constitution soys Hint, the delegates must bo apportioned to the counties according to population, and tho Senatorial districts are composed of three counties each, with out the least roguid to population. fa A church fair devioo in Troy rather knocks the mock-marriage chip otl' Tal- tnngo’s shoulders. A rugged colored man and woman entered the crowded rooms aud pleaded tor alms. They said they wore starving, uud their plight touched tho hearts and wallets of the crowd. Af ter collecting u good sum of money, tho oolored coupled wiped the burnt cork from their face. 1 *, and two of the pillars of tho church were revealed. — A’.P. We applaud the feeling of comuiiHora- tiou which the trick elicited. Hut why wuh the burnt cork resorted to? Gould not tho same amount of ey input by have been worked up in behalf of hiitt’ercra with white faces? And if not, was the oontri- buti *:i o'holly one of benevolence and true charity? Will it. pars muster in lho day when such acts are judged according to their mot 1 vos? NT. 1.0 II & HINNOlltl. '1 lie St. Louis Diinocrnt's New Year’s issue and supplement give a review of tho commerce and improvements of the city for the year 1873 ; also a sketch of the great natural and industrial resources of Missouri. Thu accompanying illustrations are very tine uud interesting. The growth and progress reported show that Hi. Louis is tho most growing and pro gressive city of the West, aud the advan tage h which hdo improvements give it iniiHt certainly enable it to maintain the luad now attained. Tho receipts of St. Louis in nearly nil tho lauding articles of commerce show considerable gain during 1878 over the provious your. Only in corn, of the prin ciple staples, iN there any falling off. Tho receipts of corn wore 1,800,000 bush els loss than in 1872. Tlio gain in ootton receipts was 50,000 bales, worth $2,5000,- 000. The gain in wheat was about 400,- 000 bushels, uud in flour about 800,000 barrels. The gain in other important com modities are exhibited, iu values, ns fol lows: Hides, ?*< 1,000,000; tobacco, $700,- 000; pork, $000,000; lead, $500,000; sugar, $100,000; salt, $800,000. Tho population of St. Louis now numbers 450,000. The great iron, copper and lea 1 regions of Missouri are in the southeastern part of the State. Thu iron rogion is claimed to be tho largest known ou the globe, nml tho Democrat bus no doubt that Missouri onu supply tho world with lead nml zinc. Tho possession of so many of tho valuable metals iu such great abundance and of such easy no ?ohr is a distinction which no other State or country can claim, ami must iu tlio fnluro wonderfully promote tlio wealth and growth of Missouri. It I Dim.OIN r A l/« KIIOODN. It seems that the “agents” who come here from States furthor west, to ontico nogroes to go to Arkansas, Mississippi, Texas, Arc., do not conffuo their false hoods to extravagant representations of wages, productions, comforts, Arc., in tho States to which they waut to d tho negroes, but they grossly and wickedly sluudcr tho States from which they tuko them. Tho Chat tanooga Commercial of tlio 8d iust. reports an agent who passed through its city the other day, having iu charge about forty negroes from near Macon, as huv- tug said that through portions of Georgia and Alabama in which he had traveled “great destitution prevails among the oolored population. Some of them arc living by camping out nml subsisting on the must, uud in some places acorns are selling for fifty cents per bushel. In Alabama, some of them, old and young, are in a st.de of nudity, Atul subsist on hickory nuts and turnip salad. NYithin the uext ten days three thousand of them will pass through our city to Memphis, for Arkansas, while n groat many are go ing West.” That this “agent" (who, of course, gel so much per head for every negro decoyed Went,) uruy have found idle, worthl and vagrant colored people in a destitute condition, nud subsisting ou unwholesome tood, iu Georgia aud Alabuma, is quite probuble. But will that class do any bet ter farther Wes*, unlei.a they go to work ? Gan they not at least secure ouough to cat heie on the worst managed plantation ? The acorn story is supremely ridiculous, aud perhaps was suggested by the fact, lately noticed in the papets, that some of the negroes about Union Springs, in Ala bama, wore gathering acorns and selling them at twenty-five cents per bushel for fattening hogs. No negro who has fifty cents, is fool enough to buy a bushel of aooma with it for food, when the same sum would buy half a bushel of corn, and we do not believe that people foolish euougb to believe the story can be found iu any part of tho country. Kucli “ugeutp,” like the carpet-baggers, will soon be found out by the uegroes, by bitter experience, aud then their race,too, Will be run. TKXAN. • A dispatch of the 8d inst. from Austin announces that on that day the Judges of the Supreme Court of Texas had not ar rived at any decision upon the constitu tionality of the lute election in that State. It adjourned until Monday, the 5th, with out agreement. It was said outside that Judge Ogden held tho election to be ille gal, Judge Walker regarded it as legal and regular, and Judge McAdoo thought that any decision of the question was un necessary and perhaps not within the prov ince of tho Court upon the case before it. The Conservatives wore hopeful, holding that a disagreement would be favorable to their side. Wo believo that tho caso was carried to tho Court upon an applica tion to restrain ouo of the now officials elect from taking his office. Ou the oibor hand, tho Republicans were confident that the Court would pro nounce the election illegal, and it was said that they wuro preparing for jolliti- culious over the decision. P. H.—A dispatch from New Orleans states that ou Monday tho Court decided tlio election illegal. Iu viow of this decision, (or the infor mation of the reader, we quote the clause of the Constitution which tho election law is held to violate : “All elections for Stute, district and county ofiicors shall be held at tho county seats of tho several counties, till otherwise providod by law ; and polls shall be open four days, from 8 o’clock in tlio morning to 8. i». m. of each day." The now olocliou law established voting places in each precinct of tho sovoral oonntioH, and confined the voting to one day. The legal question is whether tho nbove clause of tlio Constitution was de signed to continue tlio election for four days permanently, or only so long ns there should be but one voting place in each count)'; in other words, whether tho Leg islature is not empowered by it to shorten the period of votiug as well uh to increase the number of votiug places. The decision will unquestionably create n good deal of excitement in Toxsh, and »vo regard it as altogether probable that Federal intervention will have to be in voked f<> keep the people from overthrow ing Davis’government. MARION COUNTY. Ornnie Election-Elen I.nw. ITHEMENM* FESTIVITIES ATTKOY Wo learn from our spoeiul correspondent, that tho past wo ok was one of great en joyment to tho Firemen of Troy, Ala. On New Year’s night tho members of Troy Hook nml Ladder Company, with u few distinguished iuvited guests, sat down to im oyster supper at tho Jones House, which was tendered them by their esteem ed Foroman, Capt. W. II. Stricklau, in honor of his recent re-election to that po sition. Brief addresses were made by Judge J. McCuleb Wiley, Hon. John R. Goldthwaitu, Mayor Griffin, Alduimuu J. H. Solomon, Henry U. Wiley, Esq., aud Major Sidney Herbert. Ou Friday night the new and elegant Ilall of the Company, which is located in Jones' brick block, was formerly dedicated with impressive nml appropriate ceremonies. Tho attendance was confined exclusively to the members of tho organization, the City Fathers and throe officiating clergy men. Each member was ullowed to bring two ladies, which restricted tho an- dieuce to the size of the hall. After the sealing of the ladies uud tho olfioors of the Compauy and invited guests ou tho platform, the members wore marched up iu front of the Foreman’s desk, when Major Sidney Herbert, as Chairman of tho Committeo of Arrnngeuiouts. present ed tho following: OHDISU Or EXU1UUSE8. Prayer—Rev. G. Waverly Briggs. Address of Presentation—Homy C. Wiley, Esq. Address of Reception—Hon. John R. Goldthwaito. Address in behalf of city—His Honor Mayor Griffin. Address of Congratulation—Rev. E. Y. Vaulloose. Benediction—Rev. R. W. Priest. All tho addresses were received with frequent manifestations of approval. At tho close of tho dedicatory exorcises, which were not lengthy, the extra seatM wore removed from tho hall, aud after an hourof onjoyiuout,iiitersperoed with vocal and instrumental music, tho audienco ad journed to another room, where u table was handsomely spread with apples, or anges and confectioneries iu abuudau Tho festivities were kept up until mid night, when all retired, the genoral v diet being that they had never enjoyed a move delightful entertainment. Tho now hull is not large, hut it is the most ele gantly arranged aud docorated of any to bo found in towns nml cities of double tho size of Troy. A tine broad passage, about seventy-five feet iu length, offered a fine opportunity for promenading, nud tho young people were not slow to tako advantage of it, nud bright the lmnps shone over brave moil aud fair women, as they dispersed sweet smiles and gentle words of lovebouoath tho beautiful silvery light of tho moon. On Saturday night a “Recoptiou" was given to everybody, and old and youug passed a mont delightful season iu social intercourse, and iu the enjoyment of vo cal aud instrumental music. This dosed the festivities of the week, and gave all classes of oitizons an excellent opportuni ty to visit and inspect the beautiful Hall of one of tho finest Hook aud Ladder com panies in tho South, and one that tho citi zens of Columbus will long remember with feelings of prido aud pleasure, as they re call the incidents of the last annual pa rade of our *Fire Department. We con gratulate our sister city ou having such a noble band of firemeu iu their midst, and that company that they have boon enabled, through tho special and untiring efforts of W. H. Mutphree, of the firm of Hender- sou, Murpbree & Henderson, the efficient Secretary, and their own liberality and zeal, to secure such a comfortable and el- egant hall lor their uso. -During the year 1878, Chicago has sold, at wholesale alone, $580,000,000 worth of goods—a gaiu of 18 per cant, over tho business of 1872, and a gain of 31 per cent, over that of 1870. -“The Duke of Edinburgh is said to be a very skillful violinist.” It is strange hat a capacity for playing the fiddle is exhibited by young fellows who never exhibit a oapaoity for anything else. Kxquirkk Correapjndeiice.] At the last regular meeting of Glen&lta Grange, No. 237, the following officers were eleoted for the ensuing year : Pres ident, H. L. McUebeo ; Vice President, J. Edge ; Lecturer, W. L. Clements ; Treasurer, It. W. Re veil ; Secretary, W. It. Hollis ; Chaplain, W. A. Dismnke ; Steward, II. C. Majors ; Lady Assistant Steward, Miss N. J. Hollis. The ootton from Marion county is nearly all in market, and sold. The money has gone for bacon, corn and other Western produce. Tho Grangers, I think, all in tend to make their supplies at home in future, or try hard to do so. The people, all, intend to tako your valuable paper as soon aB their subscrip tions for other papers oxpire. Can’t you cry a little londer for the repeal of the lien law ? For wo, of Ma rion, think it unjust and oppressive, and overy ono who desires just and equal laws culls for its repeal. Can’t you help us in having it blotted from the statute book ? Now is tho time to help us. Nkiio. WENT POINT FACTOR IKN. We aro glad to hear that the cotton factories in tho vicinity of West Point have not boon badly hurt by tho panic aud stagnation in trade, but aro in active operation. A correspondent of the Mont gomery News writes concerning them : “The two factories built on tho fulls of tho Chattahoochee river a few miles below town, are doing much good in their way— employing largo forces of machinists, weavors aud spinners—consuming several halos of cotton per day, and thus encour aging homo labor, resources and projits. Tho two factories are now running, of improvod machinery, about 175 looms aud about (5,250 spindles ; manufacturing monthly 180,000 yards sheeting. Tho ca pacity of both mills is about 500 looms ; but as tho motto of tho managers and directors is, ‘Go slow, till you are sure you aro light, and then go uhond,’ they aro filling the mills by degrees with ma chinery. Ono hundred and eighty thou sand yards of sheeting at lie., will put into tho treasurer’s hand $108,000 per month. This sum is kept at homo.’’ Attention, FnrincrK! The regular spring session of tho Slate Agricultural Convention will be held in tlio city of Columbus, beginning Tuesday, 10th of February, With a viow to the appointment of del egates and for other important purposes oonuook'd with tho occasion, a meeting of tho MuHcogee Agricultural Society will be held iu the rooms of the Boat Club over Gunby’s building at 11 o’clock on Tues day the 13th January.
