DAILY Columbus, Citt+t' TO KBDAY JANUARY B, 1879. O. M. WILUAMI, ■ - 7*" r lMl£? MI'UMXi. Every paper w,f:jne'e over is filled with the all-ntworWnK subject con cerning the situation of Lontotann. The Government has s**t Gen. Hher iilafi to* New Grthnhff/tind He Has promised to carry out instructions t 6 tho letter. That is significant, and points directly to tho complotc' disre gard of tho expressed voice of the people of tltfti down-tt'Oildoii State. 'Die situation ipay.be summed up In this way: At tho last Stato election . til© Democratic party carried the State, electing tho Legislature by a large majority. That fact is not de nied, oven byAdw Kadteal press of the country. But before thoso elected could receive certificates to tlityf; ef fect, tho vote hus to go through a re vising machine, made to order’hy the Radical party, called a Returning Board, whoso sworn duty it 4 TO throw out enough Democrat!* ivotes to ensure tho eloetion of the Radi ’ oals., I The votes 6f parish hfter pariah wero thrown out on the most insig nificant grounds, until they wero 1 in tills way able to announce the triumph of the Radical party. Thpsefew t>ern ocrats who wero placed in tins ma chine as a blind and a bait to the Dem ocrats, havo resigned, alleging as a reason that the grossest frauds were being committed, and being in the minority they wore powerless to pre vent It. ■'! r i 1 Yesterday tho Legislature was to meet, and tho neofile of tho ontiro State determined to send their Repre sentatives to New Orleans, each ac companied by a guard of sufficient strength to seat thorn in ilofianeo of the iniquitous returns of tlio Radical Board. Gen. Granjj hearing .of their determination has sent Gen. Sheri dan to New Orleans to maintain tho Kellogg (Radical) faction in power, with a threat to hurt somebody if the pooplo again revolt. The press of New Orleans Urges the people to have no eouiliet with troops, but to do what they havo at tempted in seating thejr logally elec ted representatives. The New Orleans Times says: “One of tho questions of the day is whether Phil Sheridan is to ride down this way or not. Phil has been here before. His reputation as a rider and raider stands nigh, but as a soother of political troubles, and corrector of political abuses, he is unythlng but a success. His conduct while in com mand of tills department, was fre quently of a most short-sighted and arbitrary character; and especially was this the case In his interferences with our municipal affairs. If the policy of vongoanco la to lie adopted, Phil can carry it successfully; but ho is by no means the proper man to throw oil on troubled waters. The Bulletin says : “If our people aro determined to avoid a coiiisloa with tho United States forces, as wo firmly beliovo they aro, Generals Em ory or Lo Irobtoud,or tor the matter of that, anv lloutenant in command of a squarl,’would answer just as well as the redoubtable Sheridan, or tire scalping and town-burningTeeumseh himself. Should they ever come to tho ooneluslon th'ut their self-respoet and manhood require them to adopt a different courso, which is scarcely Srosumabjo. th* fact that Tn-Miles way-Munchausen Sheridan is to bo their objeotivejKilht, will net make a partielo of difference, so far as they are concerned; and it may safely bo predicted that, in that ease, some body is just as Mfcoiy to be hurt on one sldo as upon tho other.” Thoso extracts servo to show their determination to resist tho wrongs, at the sacrifice of life, that the Radical tarty and tho General Government havo continually heat>od upon them. YVliilo the spirit is praiseworthy, it Is Impracticable and unwise. Wo can not expect to gain our rights now with the sword, but one and all must work to destroy tho root of the evil. \vMell is fo bo found at the head quarters of tho Government, Tlio ballot-box is our only remedy, and to It wo must look for u cure. Before tills, however, %> wTOtgeil people of Louisiana may ’ have'* acted rashly, and a oonfliot may have been brought about which might Involve the whole country in war, and tho conduct of Gen. Grant and his throats only pro voke tlio people to reslstauoo. But whatever Louisiana does in this her hour of trouble, she has our sympa thies, and those of the entire South. Uooh notice.

Jiditor Daily Times: -I trust you will allow nfie to send yon a New Year’s salutation on your birth-day, and join with a friend in the hope that your now pai>or will,“live longer and the harder” than tho Dispatch, which seems to have given up with the quickest possible dispatch. \ti every body complains of hard times, it may to that you will find it hard work to koep up with your Times, but! I hoiie success may crown your efforts. Ev erybody down here are wishing you success, and you will get a good sgb serfiition list. I fi&vfe never experienced, In all my life, .such a dull Christmas season. Not one day of sunshine for u woek, and rain and dampnoss for a constant companion. Weddings, parties balls, and suppers have been of nightly oc currence here, yet it has not seemed llkb old times. One of tho most joy ous of tho past week was tho marriage of Oapt. L. H. Bowles, a talented young lawyer, and associate editor of tho Troy Messcwjer, and Miss Julia L. Wiley, a most estimable and highly accomplished young laily of tills elty. The many friends in Columbus, of the happy bridegroom, will bo glad to learu of his good fortune. The Troy Hook and Ladder Com pany have enjoyed the holidays to the full extent,, having bad their annual parade, ball and oyster supper. On Saturday night last, however, they were called irito sorvieo by the burn ing or four wooilen buildings on the Square, and through their efforts Jones’ largo two-story brick block was saved. Although some thirty families, sev eral of whom were quite a loss to this community, loft for Texas last week, I hear Of many families mov ing into the county from other sec tions, und hopo that they will to able to make good the loss referred to. So far as Troy is concerned, her growth is steadily developing. Hard ly one citizen leaves whose placo Is not supplied by two or threo now ar rivals. It is Impossible, I think, at this time to find a house for rent in the city. Tho destruction of tho four Wooden stores on tho Square will no doubt furnish occupants for tho emp ty wooden stores about town, and give an air of increasing ixrospority to tho entire business portion of tho town. Troy should never forget that she owes much of her growth and pros perity to tho generous and timely aid given her by Columbus. To Messrs. Swift, Murphy & Cos., Col. It. L. Mott, Major A. M. Allen, and G. Gunby Jordan, in particular, have the mer chants of this city been under obli gations for valuablo pecuniary assist ance and advice. It is to be hoped, therefore, that your goodly city may yet reap an abundant reward, for her devotion to the early development of this now flourishing business centre, and never have cause to regret her in vestments in this section.

It appears that the oommissifinM* of emigration at Castle Garden, New York, predict, a large emigration of Germans back to their native hpu. 4t ton fact, howover, that jinA—finkv tlie travel to Europe is small, though it is stored that there have been many applicants to the commission ers at New York for aid hi returning, mostly from mechanics, and In near ly every caso they luvo come provi ded with letter’s from Germany, in which they aro Assured that labor is plenty and profitable at home, and that the demand for mechanics is greater than it lias been for many years previous. It is stated that skill ed labor Is scarce and the prices paid aro good, almost all classes of me chanics rcooiving about two thirds advance upon tho wages that used to be paid in their different grades of work. This is accounted for on the ground not only of tho unity of Ger many, but her enrichment by the war, Blie has been more than idem nifled it is claimed; Mr besides mak ing France pay the expenses of the campaign, money lias become plenti ful, Industries that slumbered during the war have revived, her business relations with othor powers pave ex tended. and there has arisen an In creased internal and external demand for her manufactures. Besides, the war killed off many of her laborers or maimed them for life, and time sufficient has not elapsed to recruit the ranks with reliable material. If tho Germans generally aro not tho shrewd and intelligent people they are supposed to be, those of them who are in America might lend a credulous oartosuch representations. Wo aro iaolined to suspect, however, tliat there will not be a large emigra tion of Germans back to their native land. Most of them know too much for that. They have sense enough to understand that idle present hard times in this country arc exceptional anil temporary, and that even If they wero not, foreign born citizens are not likely to find much better times in their own country. If there is any truth in tho assertion that “flush times in Germany have followed the war with France,” all intelligent per sons must know that tlris is but a transient effect, odd llko the “flush times” produced by our own war, is of more advantage to capitalists than laborers. It is not War, but peace, which imparts genuine prosperity and permanent stability to the indus tries of a country. We aye now, it is to bo hoped, from various indications, •Dinring uton a period of real peace■ in the United States, and as soon as this is established nil the financial disorders resulting from the war will give place to a better state of things. When that happy consummation ar rives tho United States will, as form erly, offer such inducements and ro warils to enterprise and energy as are found nowhere elso la tho world. But what are the prospects in Ger many ? All accounts agree that there arc olements of danger in both her foreign and domestic relations which threaten u terrible explosion at no distant day. Under such circum stances it is easy to understand that it is tho policy of the German govern ment, which will neod all the light ing men It i-au obtain, not only to diminish emigration from Germany, but, as fur as poslblo, to induoo those who have emigrated to return. No doubt foreigners who have become citizens of the Uuitod States havo a right to becomo again subjects of tho monarchs or kings under whom they were born. If they can advance their material interest thereby no one can blame them for going back to Europe. But., unless all the signs of the times are to bo distrusted, tho “skilled latvorers who go from Amer ica to Germany, expecting to take tho placo of those who havo fallen In tlio war with France, will find them selves, ere long, in the placo which tlio fallen men had in the German war, and will be carrying muskets on their shoulders, with a fairer pros pect of being killed or maimed for life than'of.being engaged in peace ful and profitable employments.-- Baltimore Sun. The Treasury Troubles at Wash inoton—A Washington correspondent refers to tlio discharge of three hun dred employees of the Treasury De partment, mostly women with fami lies to support, on account of the transfer of the printing of internal revenue stamps from the government workshops to a bank note company in New York. Tlio Washington Star, commenting on the matter, says: “If the members of Congress whoso votes brought, about, tilts change--a mistake in every way could sue, Uie sad results of it in hundreds 6f Wash ington homes to-day, they might well question the humanity of their ac tion, which can hardly bo defended on any grouud, for tho government,, 4 almost certain to boa loser, (uni hot a gainer, by the transfer.
