The native press of Hong Kong and Shanghai is said to be constantly widening its influence, and at Foo chow anew paper has just been start ed, After this, the Keely motor and the deluge. The Governor of China has deter mined to send foreign ministers and consulates to the courts of all the loading countries. About one hundred officials have already been selected, and preparations for Bond ing out delegations have begun. The notorious criminal Forrester, who was suspected and charged with the Nathan murder, and who for that offence obtained his liberty, now says ho knows all about the murder, and will tell If he secures his pardon from a Westorn penitentiary, where he is held for burglary. His statement connects the police and some hiifh New York officials in the bloody deed. The Vicksburg Herald says: “It won’t be long before Mississippi judges will change the form of sen tericingaprlsoner, and will say: ‘Sam Jones, stand up. You have been tried and convicted, and are sentenced to the State prison for an indefinite period, as it is quite likely you will bo pardoned out as soon as the Gov ernor finds out what a rascal you are.’” Now the officeholders in the West are frantically calling upon Grant to make the and stand for the third term. Their pretense for thus asking every violation of prece dent and modesty, they base upon t'hoempty cry that inflation is assum ing such gigantic proportions, that he alone can whip the issue on a hard money platform. Negotiations have been for some time going on between England and France for an exebango of territory on the west coast of Africa, and have been concluded. England Is to cede Gambia to France in exebango for Dabon, Great Bassam, Assime and the river Mellacoree. The object of the exchange Is to bring the posses sion of each couutry into closer con tiguity with eneh other. In tho treaty made the respective rights of British and French subjects in the territory ceded have been guaranteed. Tho ratifications have not yet been made, that of Franco being required by law to bo made by the General As sembly. Foley’s bronzo statue of “Stone wall” Jackson, wldoh is to bo scut to Virginia,is now in tho London Itoynl Art Gallery, and is thus described by a correspondent of The Southern Churchman: “The flguro is of heroic size erect and noble; head uncovered; right hand, grasping a gaunt let, rests naturally upon the hip; on the left arm hangs a military cloak, while the left baud holds tho hilt of a sword whoso point touches a pile of hewn stones, its empty scabbard hanging from a belt around the waist." The form, the attitude, the face and tho expression of the coun tenance combine to make one of the most impressive statues we have evor seen.” A not Iter Ittrlimontl lit (lie Field! Our oIH friend, the little bird that lies about so actively whenever the political pot shows any signs of get ting ready to boil, paid us a pop call Hafsmluy. He had been up the coun try to recruit his health, and on his way back stopped over at Atlanta a few hours. While there ho learned that Governor Smith was by ivo means an uninterested spectator of tho moves now being made on the chess board in regard to the Guber natorial race next year. "In fact,” said the little bird, ‘‘l was positively informed that tho Governor had agreed to leave his name with his friends, to do with it as they saw best in regard to that office.” And with a knowing wink, ns if he saw fun ahead, the little bird chirped ta ta, and was off for home in a tre mendous hurry.— Macon Telegraph. If our “stern and impartial" Gov ernor wishes to wear the “crown” nwhile longer, ho must speak out more unmistakably. If, like Grant, lie really does not want another term, and consents to make the sacrifice only for themirnK’s good, may be tho people will not exact, the sacrifice, but rather content themselves in making a selection from such noted Georgians as Colquitt, Hardeman or Johnson. The losses sustained by the South in the civil war are estimated by a correspondent of tho Now York livening Port to have been $1,284,000,- 000, independent of the slave proper ty, which amounted to $2,400,000,000, making a total of $2,684,000,000. But the correspondent estimates that had not the war occurred the wealth of the South, taking the ratio of the de cade ending 1860 as a test, would in 1870 have reached $15,381,000,000, in stead of which it fell to only $6,462,- 000,000—a difference of nearly $10,000,- 000,000. THE Cl KKKNCV qi EWTIOX. The following extract is taken from a letter written to the Troy (N. Y.) Press by one of the leading lawyers of Columbus. His sentiments are so fully in accord with those of tho Southern people, that wo reproduce it In our columns. It is an able lot tcr on the position of tho South on this great question. If the East and North will continue to desert the Western Democracy on account of inflation, there is no alternative left the South and West but to act for themselves. We have as many voters as they, and it will be an easy task for us to unite and elect u President. We hopo the inflation, or rather non contraction movement may be harmo nized, and made a part of tho Nation al platform ; but we believe It will be of such grave Importance that it will be a prominent feature: “Admit the Democrats of Ohio ure inclined towards Inflation; and that the Radicals are just a little inclined towards contraction ; what of it? Is tho whole country to bo agitated over the matter? Is the eloction of a Gov ernor in Ohio of such national im portance as to agitato the whole country and to control the issues in the coming presidential election? We don’t pretend to be able to see clear through a mill stone, but we think we can see very clearly through this business. The West and the South are indebted untold millions to tho capitalists in the East. This in debtedness was contracted when the currency was from fifteen to thirty per cent, below par. The bonds of all these .States, und of railroad and municipal corporations, to an im mense amount, are held by parties in New York and New England ; and of course it would be very agreeable to them to receive payment in a cur rency that would lie equal to gold, thereby saving to themselves fifteen or twenty per cent on this immense amount of indebtedness. Who illumes them for being in favor of specie payments and con traction of tile currency ? This shows their soundness on the curren cy question and their groat financial skill and ability. Tho West and the South can't exactly see it in that way, not being skilled in financial mutters, and innocently think the debt should be paid with a currency about as it was when the debt was contracted. In their innocent sim plicity, they want to know why it is that the press and tho politicians of New York and New England are so unanimously in favor of contraction, and for hard money, immediately, if not sooner, whilst at the same time a majority of the people South and West are opposed to immediate eon traction. What does all tills mean ? Why this groat hue and cry just now V Allen und Thurman and Hendricks have all been mentioned as possible candidates for the Presidency next year. They are all Western men, and the Western people are opposed to an immediate contraction of the currency; and therefore these men are not sound, are not to tie trusted and must bo put down. Allen lias been nominated for Governor of Ohio. Ho was elected two years ago and his prosper,t, has been consid ered good for re-election by a large majority; but bo Is running ou a platform against contraction of the currency, and that is against tho in terest of the bondholders and ho must bo defeated. The Radical party is opposed to his election, and that was to bo exiwicted ; but wedid not expect to sec Democrats turn the cold shoulder upon him. But what did wo see ? If we read the signs of the times aright, nearly every Democrat ic paper in New York and New Eng land would be glad to seo him defeat ed. They throw cold water upon ev ery effort, made in his behalf; they denounce and ridicule every man who dares to advocate his cause and his platform. And my thoughts might, as well have utterance, and 1 do believe the New Y'ork Worhl and a majority of the press in New York would rejoice with exceed ing great, joy to seo Allen de feated in the coming election. And I must include the Troy Press in that number. In the low down andsecret chamber of your heart, Mr. Editor, would you not rejoice to sqc Allen defeatod! I believe you would—and 1 believe you and many others would say you did it all for principle. Speak out, and let us know how tin* matter stands. You control one of the lead ing Democratic organs and have great influence in mouldingpublicopiuion. Is this question of tho currency to lie made the great, leading, overshadow ing question iu the Presidential elec tion ? If so, let us know it. Do the bondholders control the Government! Have they the power to nominate and elect our Presidents! Do they hold In the hollow of their hands the se cret power to contraot the currency at their pleasure? Have they at their heels the entire press of New Vork and New England, and have tliey determined upon the sud den contraction of the currency and to bring us down to a specie basis at an early day? If these things be so, it is but. fair that we should know it. True, the South and West have not inanv modern and expert jinanreiers, like Jim Fisk, Jay Cooke and others; but tliey have, when combined, a good many voters. And perhaps you ad better not drive them to tho wall on tliis question. All these sneers and jeers and denunciations that are being heaped upon these leading men of tho West may yet bear fruit that will bo bitter to the taste of the mon ey-changers and bond-holders. If this question is prematurely thrust forward and made tho leading issue, tlie West and the Soutli may possibly strike hands and set up for them selves, and eloet a President of their own selection, and upon a platform of inflation that is not now dreamed of. They are not for repudiation, nor are they now for any positive infla tion, but they are opposed to any sud den contraction, and if that is tho is sue tliey are ready to meet It.” A wild boy was lately captured near j Austin, Texas. He was first discov- j ered wallowing in a pond of shallow water, and when approached ho broke like a quarter-horse, running about a mile before he could be over taken by men on ponies. Hiding up near, the boy was lassoed, when a fierce contest ensued, the strange be ing striking, kicking and lunging about in a most fearful manner, and apparently being frightened almost to death. Finally ho was overpow ered, tied and taken to the house of the man who first discovered him. His bodv was covered with hair about four inches long, and, from size and appearance, lie is supposed to bo about twelve years old. He is una ble to talk, but possesses reasoning power, and now follows his captor about like a dog. There are not near so many people ready to serve the Khedive, since the Abyssiuians are invading his territo ry, and he finds it necessary to call in his troops into active service. Recently two inkstands and a pen were dug up at Pomiieil. The pea is of metal, and made almost similar in shape to our quill pens, so in the writing line the moderns are not so far ahead after all. Alnluuna K.lertlon. We received the following circular with the request to publish for the information of our Alabama readers. This wo cheerfully do, and congrat ulate them upon tho result of tho eloc tion and selection of their Executive Chairman and Secretary: Rooms of the State Executive 1 Committee, oe the Democratic I ami Conservative Party, ! Montgomery, Ala., August 13,1875. J Dear Sir: Every county in tho Slate has been heard from, and the people of Alabama, struggling amid many difficulties, have madeanothcr great and important step towards se curing for themselves and their chil dren the blessings of good Govern ment. According to the returns, as hasti ly forwarded to this office, by letter and in mnny instances by telegram, the majority for the Constitutional Convention is about Hi,ooo votes. In returns thus forwarded some slight discrepancies are unavoidable, but wo feel satisfied that tho official re turns will make very little change in tho above figures. We have delayed this circular for several days in order that we might be able to furnish you as accurate a statement of tho rosult us could be had prior to the publica tion of the official returns. At this election ninety-nine delegates were elected to the Constitutional Conven tion, and of these, our information is that eighty-one are members of the Democratic and Conservative party, and tlie balance are Radicals and “In dependents.” This has been a great victory for the people, and the result has shown that tlie success of the people in this popular movement, un der tlie providence of God, has been mainly due to the harmony, organi zation, und effortsof the Democratic and Conservative party; to tho trans cendent exertions made by the free press of this .State; to tlie powerful canvass made by curable and patri otic speakers in tho field; to the pa triotism and efficiency of our party agencies in the different counties; and above all to tho intelligence and virtue of the people. From the beginning to the end of this canvass active and persistent ef forts were made by the Radical lead ers to try to divide our party, by of fering the inducements of their sup port and candidacy to what tliey call ed “Independents,” their object in tills being to disrupt und disorganize our party, and thereby defeat the Constitutional Convention and pave tho way for anew ascendancy of the Radical party in tho councils of this State; but the patriotism and intelli gence of the people wus equal to tlie emergency, and the consequence was that no Independents were elected, except in negro counties, und by ne gro votes, at tho bidding of the lead ers of tho Radical party. The Radi cal leaders literally flooded tho State with addresses und circulars, filled with all manner of misrepresenta tions. Against all these tilings the organization of our party, and the power of the people, stood as firm as rook. The Democratic and Conser vative party of Alabama never has been more compact and united in spirit and purpose than it is to-dav. This great party, comprising almost tlie entire white population of this State, and being in largo part the men, and the descendants of the men, who rescued its soil from tho domin ion of the savage Indian, and who pay its taxes and bear the burdens of its Government, and have inaugura ted and upheld its religious, and mor al and social institutions, will not breulc up nor break down at the bid ding of any man or set of men, no matter how pretentious and high sounding his or their self-asserted patriotism may be. Such a party and such a people cun well afford to laugh to scorn the shallow coalition of a few sorehoaded office seekers, who consent, to become the candi dates of the Radical party, under the name of being called Independents. Tho mission of tliis great party lias not ended, nor will it end until the people of this State have received tho benefit, of all tho reforms in their State Government, which, under the circumstances by which we are sur rounded, a wise public policy de mands. It Is to such a party and to such a people that we send these con gratulations, and rejoice with them in the hour of their victory. Jly the State Executive Committee. W. L. Bbaoo, Chairman. Wa. h. Chambers, Sec’ry. Aml > Johnson'* Romance. "One who knew him” tells the Buf falo Courier tho annexed incident in tho early life of ex-Presidont John son : He went to Laurens Court-house, South Carolina, remaining two years, working at his trade. Returning when nineteen to North Carolina, he fell in love with a young lady in Wako county. Johnson was still poor, hav ing nothing but the clothing on Ilia back, and a horse, while the young lady’s mother owned several negroes ami claimed to belong to the upper crust of society. She forbade the young tailor to come to the house, and strictly enjoined her daughter never to speak to him. She had high er aims for her daughter; a eoatless tailor, she said, should never marry into her family. Tho girl loved “An dy,” and they had many interviews at the back garden gate. Andy re solved to emigrate to East Tennessee, and, after an affectionate parting in terview with his "sweetheart” at the classic back gate, lie set out across the mountains. The young lady af terwards married a farmer, xnd lived to see her first lover made President of the United States. Johnson never saw her but once again. In 1858 he made speeches in North Carolina, and, in the course of the canvass, sought out the loved one of his early days. She was living upon a farm, the wife of a very plain man and in the most moderate circumstances. The army worm is steadily working its way t hrough Western Massachu setts. At Uxbridge over an acre of Hungarian grass was stripped of leaves and seed in a single night; next followed a field of oats, etc. Masonic Notice. V REGULAR MEETING COLUMBIAN A .
