LARGEST DAILY OIEODLATION In 4'lty und Mubnrbs. Wlm Patlfraon. The beautiful anil truly ftiwluatiug young lady whose name heads this notice, Is In the city, and will, within ft few doys, givo the citizens of Co lumbus an opportunity to hear her Interesting recitations. Miss I’attorson is not unknown to fame In the literary world, though yet scarcely twenty years of age. Hhe ims traveled through the South gen erally, but ttiis is her llrst visit to Columbus. Hhe is a Southern woman in feeling and principle, having been born and reared in Mississippi, and when not traveling, resides at her home in that State. Miss Patterson is a great beauty, and is the belle of the social circle wherever she goes. A brunette in complexion, her delicate face und features beam with intelligence and refinement, Hhe is about medium height; is possessed of bright wit, sparkling in conversation, and as charming as nature can perfect mor tals. Hhe is the embodiment of grace, and free from consciousness and affectation. Having a clear, musical and delightfully modulated voice, and a ready conception of oratorical sentiment, her recitations are more than ordinarily interesting and vivid; while at the same time she is divested of that stage mannerism, that too fre quently destroys the pleasure of such an entertainment. Miss Patterson is not a “reformer” of any school, but simply gives a rare literary treat in the shape of readings from choice selections. We would be glad to see her entertainment patron ized by everybody in the city ; for sucli all exhibition of interest would argue that our people are fast, learn ing tho value of, and the pleasures to bo derived from, literary entertain ments of a high order, and are begin ning to fully appreciate what wo have lost by not giving our attention to lectures, readings, &e. The Southern people are well enough educated, and far better than the Northern people, but we are not a lecture-going people probably because in tho past days of Georgia, worthy lecturers did not come among us. Wo trust Miss Pat terson will be greeted by such an audience as her merit so richly entitles her to. The Crrrilt of U rnrxln. Tho market ij notations, and advices from tho money markets at the North, as gathered from our ex changes, show that the credit of Georgia is ns good if not better now than beforo the fuss and feathers re port of tho Finance committee. It is a high compliment to the Treasurer that iiis simple avowal that tiio funds of the State were se cure, was sufficient to reinstate the price of Georgia bonds. The com mittee will see tiiat tho capitalists of the North regard Treasurer Jones’ statement as of more importance titan their laborious report. Tho At lanta New* says: “Beforo tho Legis lature adjourned a resolution was adopted authorizing tho Governor to borrow four hundred and fifty thou sand dollars. Wo are glad to bo able to state that no trouble whatever will bo experienced in borrowing the money, Governor Smith expecting to obtain it from parties in tho State. Wo understand (so excellent is our credit) that one million of dollars could be borrowed if tho money was needed, bo tho treasury will not be embarrassed this year for want of funds. Those individuals who were predicting that the astonishing rove-1 lotions of the Finance committee I would inflict a fatal blow upon the creditor Georgia will, doubtless, lie mortified tiiat they have proven such poor prophets. There is no doubt whatever now tiiat, we shall obtain all the money needed to meet all tiie payments of the State treasury." Colorado was admitted as a new State in tiie last hours of Congress, but the bill admitting New Mexico was rejected. There was a majority vote for both, but tiie “two-thirds” rule which prevails on the last days of tiie session was the cause of New Mexico being rejected, tiie bill for ♦ hat State not receiving the necessa ry two-thirds vote in tho House, Whilst the Colorado hill did receive it. Colorado is not to bo admitted until 1876, however, and her new Sen ators and membors cannot take their seats until after the Presidential election, in which tho people of the new State will not participate. By the census of 1870, Colorado had a imputation of 89,864, whilst New Mex ico had 91,874. The new postal cards will be un- i liko those now in use. Tho color i will be violet blue. Tho border and all directions as to where and how to write name and address will be dispensed with, A monogram form ed of the letters “U. H.“ will lie printed on the card in black ink. This will be on the upper loft hand corner, across wnteh will be the | words “Postal Card.” Tho vignette i —Liberty, with her luxuriant tresses hanging down her back, and confin ed by a cap -adorns tiie upper loft hand corner. The new cards will be identical in size with the old ones. They will be ready for delivery about the middle of April. The Americas Republican an nounces the death last Thursday of Mrs, Geo. M. Dudley, widow of Col. G. M. Dudley and daughter of the late Hon. Win. H. Crawford, one of Georgia's foremost men in the good old days of tho past. She was about seventy years old. and had lived in Atneriens since 1839. I'nril from Rev. W. J. Gain*. CoLi'Mnus, March 11, 1875. Mr. Editor : I feel that in the arti cle headed “Wolf in Sheep’s Cloth ing,” that I was misrepresented, and hope therefore that you will publish the letter referred to, written by me to a friend in Philadelphia. The question asked me was, “whether it was true that the colored people of Georgia did not want the Civil Rights bill, as affirmed by the Hon. A. H. Stephens”? I replied to this friend, “they did want it, but had not the courage to say so.” Touching what was said about “wiping out tho whites of Georgia,” I never said that, but I did say, “the Almighty lias something to do with this matter; we are not left to our selves, and we ask nothing that, is not enjoyed by the white citizens.” I uni astonished at this great nation. God “hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth, and hath determined the times before appoint ed, and the bounds of their habita tion.”- Acts, lfl chap., 26 verse. I meant to say that our rights on railroads were not respected ; our wives and daughters, after paying first-class fare, were often compelled to ride with convicts and felons; and I myself was dragged out of a smok ing car in 1871. Therefore I have felt the sting; and a Democratic lawyer in Macon told me I could not got jus tice in the State courts, and recom mended me to carry it to the United States Court, and lie would defend the suit for SSOO. Such is my fuith in the citizens of Columbus, that I believe they will allow every man to think for himself and have his own private opinion. Any colored man who says he does not wish to enjoy the benefits of the Civil Bights bill, I think him to bo deceitful. Yours, for Peace, Justice and Lib erty, Wesley ,f. Gains. Tho above letter wo publish cheer fully, for the reason we think every man who is charged with tho com i mission of any net should be allowed a hearing. This matter is of no great interest to any one, but we thought, and still think, that the citizens of Columbus have a right to know the sentiments of any one asking aid from them, that they may determine tho merit of their appeal. This man Gains does not deny a single statement mado by us in yes terday’s paper. We stated he was the negro who sued a railroad for re fusing him entrance into a first class ear; that lie asserted in his letter that the negro had no rights which were respected, and they were afraid to express their honest convictions in this community. Ho does not deny a single charge we made against him. Wo will state in justice to him that we were in error in writing him as saying “Georgia would bo wiped out.” Ho did not use the word Geor gia, but lie used the word “govern ment.” We would comply with his request to publish his Northern ob jectionable letter in full, but it is so mutilated we cannot connect it; but It is useless, ashed oes not deny our charge. Wo admit tho broad princi ple of liberty of speech and of eon sicnce, and hence make no complaint against him on account of his convic tions. We simply say that thinking that way does not accord with our ideas; and while we are not intol erant, and do not want to force our views on him, we do say that such sentiments are at variance with our moral, political and pecuniary inter ests, and that wo have the right to refuse to aid him and all like him. There are many deserving negroes in this city who know their places, and who recognize the great, distinction there is between the races. To those who do not, we have no complaint to make, but say don’t expect 11s to help you, AVe have, in this matter, done nothing but our duty in tiie premises a duty wo think we owe to our race (from our stand-point), and tho bal- j anee is left with tho merchants, to j give or to withhold. Tho facts are before them, and each one can act for \ himself. If these were only his sen-1 timents, it, would look hard for others of ills congregation to be deprived of aid; but he tells us, in the closing paragraph of his letter, that all pro fessions on this subject not in accord tvitli iiis, are deceptive. Spain and the United States. An autograph letter from King Al phonso of Spain to tho President of the United States, notifying the latter of his advent to tho throne by accla mation of tiie Spanish nation and as tiie legitimate heir in consequence of the abdication of his mother, Queen Isabella, lias been received by tiie Spanish Minister. The King requests tho President to honor him witli his friendship, and to accept the proffer of ins own. The letter is dated Jan ury 16, tho day on which similar com munications were addressed to the other Governments, but it was not received until to-day, having been first sent by special messenger from Madrid to London, which caused some delay. "Peuhaps one ought not to mention such things,” says the Courier-Jour nal, “but it's hard to keep from thinking how different the history of the country might have been if Ulys ses S. Grant, Benjamin F. Butler and Henry Ward Beecher had been born girls.” At the same time, isn’t it something of a consolation, amidst the appalling depravity of tiie times, to think tiiat they were not? Imag ine, for instance, how old cock-eye, from Essex, would have gone galiva ting about as a female lobbyist, and what a bad enthusiasm Beecher would have inspired among the old men in the pit as the flying trapezist of a variety show. - -Mr. Glover is the fortunate man who ousts tho negro postmaster Bel cher at Macon. Glover is an old rev enue officer. MontßomVry AdvortliM, 10.] The Ku—ill County tonlr-icil Election Case. Mr. Billups, tho able and faithful Chairman of tho Committee on Priv ileges and Elections of the House of Representatives, made a report to the House in tho above ease yester day. The fuctH as developed by the Investigation, were agreed upon by the parties in interest, und are sot forth in tho following agreement, which was made a part of tho report of the Committee: * “in tne matter <>f the contested election of Prinoe Gardner and D. J. Daniels, sitting members, by Wil liam H. Chambers and Anderson G. Jones, for scuts in the House of Kep resentotlves of the General Assembly of Alabama, as Representatives of the county of Bussell, it is agreed by and between the sitting members and the contestants, as follows; “1. That tho said Prince Gardner , and D. J. Daniels received a majority or all the votes that were nclualhj east at. the election for members of the General Assembly in the county of Bussell, on the third day of No vember. , “2 That if it Is required by law as a qualification of electors that they' should have been registered, or that I they should have taken and sub-1 scribed to the oath prescribed by sec-1 tion 4, article 7 of the Constitution of j this State, then and in that event the ] said William H. Chambers and An* 1 derson G. Jones received a majority ; of all the legal votes east at the elec- ! tion for members of the General As sembly at said election. “In testimony whereof tin- parties have hereunto signed their names this tho flth day of March, 1875. IV. H. Ohambehh, A. O. Jones, Bust. Gabdnek, Attorney for Respondents.” “Attest: Simeon O'Neal.” So at last we con congratulate the Democracy of Russell in their victo ry. Fraud and corruption did not win, but patience, and a firm resolu tion to vindicate the right., has seated j Cols. Chambers and Jones. Instead of the county being represented by a couple of buck negroes, ignorant and vile, it is now graced by the faithful statesmanship of these gentlemen. It was an awful task to wade through this matter, and it took them nearly all of the session, but now that it is done, und tho purity of the ballot vindicated, Col. Jones and Chambers will prove able Represen tatives. Col. Jones is a planter of large means, and is in every respect a gen tleman. He resides near Crawford. Col. Wi H.

Baird, aged 74 ! and 78 years, respectively, of Green l A'illage, New Jersey, not long since celebrated their golden wedding, j During the festivities the old gentle ! man very gallant ly proposed to kiss his wife 'for the, tune in hi* life. The old lady said as they had'been j married for fifty years, and he had j never before thought of making such a proposition, she should decline, which she did. AVhere is there an other couple of which the same can be said? AVe scarcely think there ever was one. Senatob McDonald, of Indiana, Is satisfied that the Democratic nominee for the Presidency, to be successful, must come from the West, and indi cates Governor Hendricks as his choice. Outlie subjoet of the Vleo- Presidency he is of the opinion that a Northern man should bo chosen ; | however, he thought Gen. Gordon, ■ of Georgia, would not be a bad selec tion Indeed, he expressed the lie-; lief that. “Hendricks und Gordon would sweep the country.” It is reported that Prince Louis Napoleon, now that he has left - Woolwich, will request the French Government to allow him to pass his ] examination, in order that ho may i serve as a one year’s volunteer in the French army. It is a request, which, I whether granted or not, will be like ly to increase the Prince’s popularity, j If tlie Government say* yes, the | Prince will receive credit for a volun-I tary offer of service; if no, it will add to his prestige by seeming to fear him. Tiic Cumins Ira.li In Europe. Mr. H. M. Hosier, a student of po litical events and interpreter of po litical portents, discusses in the (fen- Uemen'x MaqaiUie, of London, the lighting capacity of the nations of Europe, in view of the general war so confidently predicted by Mr. Disraeli and other English statesman. Be ginning with France, ho thinks the government of that country would hardly encourage aspirations of tho French people to rush into war with Germany, and neither the army or ganization nor the arrangement of the commissariat is strong enough to warrant it. Spain may be considered us out of the military arena of Eu rope, having internal dissensions enough to keep her occupied. Belgium and Switzerland will not be interfered with in any event, un less their territory should lie wanted ' as battleground, and neutrality of one has been guaranteed and that of tho j other virtually assured by the great! powers. Bussia is styled the “great mysterious power.” By law last No- 1 vember, every Russian subject lie comes liable to military service, and the consequence of this decree is an enormous increase in the army, and it is estimated that next year Bussia will lie aide to put, 1,500,000 strong, hardy and loyal soldiers in the field. Sweden and Norway would probably ! enter into no general European war, j though well equipped for self-defence. Turkey is “almost a nightmare in every foreign office.” England could only maintain a position of neutrali ty, being poorly prepared to become a participant in a general war. Ger many is the first-class war power, able in any emergency to put 1,000,- 000 fighting men in the field, and throughout the Fatherland there is a ] feeling thut, the only way to reduce ; t hese enormous armaments to a foot ling proportionate to the capabilities j of the people is to force on events, I and some how or other disarm those 1 on account of whom these military : preparations are necessary. Wo learn from the Madison Hifine Journal that Miss Lou Atkinson, daughter of Mr. S. A.
