Jt pi<vid’*s that, nil other things being equal, disabled soldiers, their wives, the widows and children of deceased soldiers who died in the tine of duty, shall have precedence in appointments in the civil service. Mr. Bayard expresse 1 his admira tion and sympathy for t hose wlm had served the republic in the Held, but he suggested that the principle of the resolution was not sound. It had not been our policy to s**t up a favored class, and the passage of such a res- j dliition would be apt to beget ani mosity toward those for whose bene lit it was intended. He thought it was hontmrv to the spirit <f the con stitution. Tin* resolution was passed by a vote of 3K> to 8. Mr. Ingalls reported a resolution fora select committeo to visit the In-; dian Territory during tho recess to inquire into the condition of affairs in that country.

HOUSE. Mr. l>awes ? of Massachusetts, moved that, tlie House go ’into n com mittee of tin* whole on the tariff bill. Mr. Durham, of Ky., opposed the motion, desiring the morning hour for th<* consideration of the bill in relation to the Freedman’s Saving and Trust Company. Objection was 1 I made, and the House decided to go t into a committee of the whole on tin* t tax and tariff bill. Mr. Smith, of Ohio, said there were | a humired million dollars worth of I imported goods In this country, | and the effect of the bill would lx; to | add ten millions to the cost of these I goods to the people, and put a cor j responding increase upon articles of j American manufacture. Mr. Maynard, of Tennessee, advo j eated the resolution of ten per cent., j and argued that the increase on the j j duty was paid by foreign manufacto- j i ries, and not the American consum ers. Aftyr two hours debate under 1 :the live minutes rule, Mr. Dawes (mored that the committee rise for [the purpose of cutting off debate. ! The motion was agreed to by a vote of 'JJ to '.Mi. Debate was, by order of 'the House, limited to one hour, and i the House again went into Comrnit ' tee of the Whole. Mr. Dawes said it had Is e l leiiealr. |e<ily charged during this dt bate that the bill was for the benefit of New England, and especially the sth sec tion, which revives the horizontal tax. He desired to say now that New Eng land did not desire this increase, but i the secret of New England’s prosperi -1 ty was that she always adapted hcr | felf to changed circumstances. Debate on the section having been ! closed, the committee proceeded to ' vote on Mr. Burchard’s motion to strike <JUt the horiz<mtal tax section, j The motion was rejected.

THE LOUISIANA COMMITTEE. \ full meeting of the Louisiana • Committee was held last night, at j which the whole subject, of troubles I there was discussed. Four members of the Committee, viz. : Hoar, Frye, | Wheeler and Foster, have agreed upon a report very radical in its eliar- I aeter, but Foster will dissent in some | particulars.

The New York K'xpreH calls attention to several facts to prove that diptheria Is not anew disease, as most people suppose, and reminds its readers that General Washington was supposed to have died of the malady. The letters of Walpole show that a disease very similar to it, if not exactly tlu; same, was an epidemic among certain of the English nobility as early as the middle of the nineteenth century. — • The heavy editor of the Macon Teleyraph grows wrathy over the vul garity of Tony Denier’s Pantomime Troujs*.

One transaction has conic to light in which a large sale of butter was made, but when the consumer commenced using it, he found to his sorrow that t in; can contained rancid lard, cov ered with butter. Andy Johnson has declined the invitation of the Mayor of Atlanta to speak there. Probably Andy does not want to make the acquaintance of the assembled wisdom of Georgia, for fear they would resolve that a seat tm the floor be tendered him, and an invitation extended to take goobers. Warosboro claims a very remark able woman, and she belongs to a very remarkable and, we may add, a very dangerous family to* marry into. She gave birth to live children in one year triplets in January and t wins in Decomber. Her mother had previously given birth to triplets, her sister is the mother of three pairs of twins, and each of her two daughters has given birth to triplets. The times an* real!v too hard for such foolishness. The Fort Valley Mirror has the following account of a novel law (rase : McArthur is a dentist, MeGheoisu farmer. They reside in Taylor coun ty. Mr. McArthur put in a set of teeth for the farmer, who paid him with a buggy worth some twenty-live or thirty dollars more than tiic bill, j the balance to be paid in cash. The tooth carpenter failed to pay the bal ance due, and returned the good bug gy a id took another one which he accepted as full payment for the debt . McArthur used tin; buggy several mouths before lu* returned it. Leav ing Butler, he went to Upson county, find was followed by McGhee, who had him tried before a country Mag istrate for the rent of the buggy, charging twenty-live cents per day for t in* ust* of the sanu*. The dentist plead a “set-off,” by charging the old farmer the same amount per day for the use of the teeth. The Magistrate rendered his decision in favor of the defendant, and Ilucw the, plaintiff in fill the costs of prosecution. YLAIIVUA \I:AVN. The jail at Seale contains twenty prisoners.

Tlu* Mobile ItcjUtcr says every negro in Alabama has at his heels a worthless cur, which acts as a prohib ition upon sheep raising, and eats as ! much as his master. A tax of five cents on each dog would raise a very I handsome sum. A poll tax and a dog i tax, stringently enforced, would pay off the debt of Alabama in a few i years. G. R. Millen, colored, of Fort Mitchell, who has been merchandis ing there, was arraigned the other day by Mr. Dallas Smith, Revenue !

He is one of the best, specimens of a Virginia gentleman and honest politician. For many years he was a member of the Virginia Legislature, and during the war served iri the Confederate Senate. A better selection could not perhaps have been made, and the dead-lock has ended well for his State. petcrHhnrrj Nnr.<. • a* i RGi:vr appkalj. Address of our Hemorrallc (Hu meii to tlie southern People. Washington, February IS, 1875.- Tho following address has just been prepared by the Domocratc members of the South and Southwest: To the People of the Southern State s; You have coutided to tho under signed in this conjuncture of affairs the delicate and difficult task of guarding in tho Federal Congress and your public interests, your rights, your reputation. You will therefore, pardon the liberty wo take of address ing you, at a period so critical, upon a matter affecting yqur destiny and t hut of your posterity. You cannot have failed to observe the persistent efforts of some of the loaders of tho Republican party to revive the animosities of tho late war, which, happily, are fast giving place to a spirit of concord and*unity in every section of our common country. It is impossible to predict certainly tlu* effect of these appeals to passion. We believe that through tho honest representation of a few upright and conscientious Federal officers and agents, an independent and able press, and of many citizens—without regard to party -tho true condition of the Houtncni States, and the real sentiment of Southern people are be ing gradually made known to our fel low citizens of the North. We hope for their favorable decision when fully apprised of all facts. The great end of good government will be reached when the people of all sec tions forget that we have ever been enemies, and come together again as in the easy days of the Republic, Emulating each other in devotion to tho best interests of tin* whole coun try, with this exalted purpose in view, there is nothing inconsistent with the honor and manhood of a brave people to resolvi* to suiter with heroic patience, whatever be their provocation and wrongs, look ing through tho fearful present to a hopeful future, and repell ing unjust epithets anti gratuitous insults with dignified moderation. Lot (*vcry white man in every neigh borhood in the whole South regard himself as a commissioner of peace, maintaining tlie kindliest relations towards the black man, remembering that the responsibility for tho ex treme poverty to which we have been reduced and the corrupt gov ernment to which his vote has subjected us, rests so much upon him as upon tin* bad men who, with tho assistance of Federal support, have by appeals to his worst passions, sought to make him our enemy, while we labor by all honest means to con vince him of the truth that our inter est and ids are identical, and that both must be preserved by good gov ernment, and that those who stir up strife between us are the enemies of both races. Lot us at the same time see that he is fully protected in his guaranteed rights to vote as he pleases in all elections, and let us con tinue to deal with him honestly and fairly; let us continue cordially to in vite to our midst t hose of any politi cal party who either seek to know tin* truth or to And homes upon our soil. We do not exaggerate when wo ad monish you of the disheartening fact that every street disturbance, every homicide of whatever character and by whomsoever committed (by black or white, Republican or Democrat), such as arc incident to every com munity upon earth, is perverted into evidence of a spirit of lawless ness and violence and a purpose to accomplish political ends. We well know the gross injustice of such charges, which have cre dence only where ignorance; of our true condition prevails. Strenuous efforts arc now being made by those who misrepresent, you, t<> induce the passage by Congress, of tin* most: dangerous measures, in order to ir ritate our people, to drive them to despair, to provoke them to violent out breaks, in order to furnish an ex cuse for applying for military inter ference. We express the hope that a majority of the present Congress will not be found ready to sanction Hindi legislation. If it be accomplish ed, it. would bo against the protest riot, only of t he Democrats, but. of tho moral world, and tho statesmanship hero of the party in power, and of such Republicans as William C. Bryant, Evarts, Hilaries Francis Adams, and others whoso patriotism and sense of justice arc known to the entire country. Wc may, however, be mistaken. The most extreme, oppressive ynd unconstitutional measures may be imposed upon you. In such event, we would appeal to t he wisdom and patriotism of a long suffering people by every hope of tho future, for continued forbearance and a hopeful reliance upon tin 4 virtue and so nee of justice of the American people for tin* ultimate vindication of our rights, the protection of our lib erties and t in* safety of our Republi can form of Government.

RALE MAX. jiilil t! Jordan’s Joyous Julep. A Specific for Neuralgia. I HAVE been saying a good deal through the ]supers of lute extolling JORDAN’S JOYOUS •lUIiEPas a most wonderful NEURALGIA CURE; but for lear you may exclaim an Hhakspeare when he *aid “You cram these words into mine ear against the stomach of my sense,” 1 now sub mit to you what persons way who have tried my Neuralgia Julep, with the most complete and satisfactory result: Columisus, January 16, 1875. Mr.Jordan: I take great pleasure In recom mending your Joyous Julep for neuralgia. It has produced a most wonderful relief in one of the severest attack* of neuralgia my daughter everhss had. She has been treated for it by three skillful physicians, with very little benefit, and used all the u*ual remedies with little suc cess. I can with much confidence hope for a per manent cure. It is only two day* since we began tlie use of it, and it is apparently of permanent benefit. Yours, with respect, MRS. L. I. NORMAN. Petersburg, Va., Jan. 15, 1875. Jno. /,. Jordan, Esq., Columbus, Ua.: Dear Sir—llaviug learned through my friend R. A. Bacon of your “J. J. J.” preparation for re lief of neuralgia, and tested it with perfect suc cphh iu my own family, iu the wor*t case, too, thut ever came under my observation, I now enclose fifty cents for a second bottle, as I con sider it too valuable a medicine to be without, though 1 have no immediate use for it. Very truly yours, JAMES T. TOSH. Columbus, Ga., Nov. g, 1874. /><-. J. /,. Jordan: Dear Sir—Your Joyous Julep for Neuralgia ha* been tried in my family, and with the most happy result,and I find iu it all you claim for its virtue. And I unhesitatingly re commend it to all who are suffering from Neural gia a* something a little remurkablo in its cura tive power. J. D. WORTHY. Columbus, Ga., Dec. 18, 1874. Hr. J. L. Jordan —Your medicine, Joyous Julep, is without an equal for Neuralgia. Having j been a great sufferer from the pain, and having | tried tho prescriptions of many phynicians, yet I nil proved of no effect until I tried four doses of your Julep, when I was immediately relieved, and have not been troubled since. H. C. MADDOX. Lake City, Fla., Nov. 4, 1874. Dr. J. L. Jordan —Please send me another bot tle of your Joyous Julep for a friend. I have never found anything equal to it for Neuralgia. I Two dose* cured me almost instantly, and I can ■ safely recommend it to do what you say. Very respectfully, Ac., JOHN M. JKFFRYB. Fkiinandina, Fla., April, 1874. Dr. J. L. Jordan, Columbus, Oa.: Dear Dir—lt affords me pleasure to add ray tes timony to the efficacy of your "Jordan’s Joyous Julep,” in gi\lng instant relief in Neuralgia; aud to all appearance, as effective as instantaneous. I was effected daily with Neuralgia, and since taking a few teaspoonfuls of your relief, two or more week* have elapsed, aud there are no indi cations of return. 1 hope that the human fam ily will raceivo a benefit commensurate with the importance of your discovery, and that your pecuniary reward will Ik* equal to its well de served merits.
