Johnston states ttiat, the report that lie had been ten dered the oonmtand of the Khedive’s army is without foundation, Mr. Jekkkrhon Davis is accompa nied on his Western tour by his son, Mr. Jefferson Davis, jr. The latter is 21 years of age, and has H|)ent, the greater part, of hit life in Europe. In California, the stoppage of a bank does not reduce the quantity of gold; it remains, and circulates the same as ever. The financial condi tion of Han Francisco is now ns as suredly good as that of any city in the United Statos. The Executive Commlttco of the Centennial Commission for Tennes see have assessed the ,Slate for $25,- (XX), which sum they think Is neces sary to make a creditable appear ance at the Exposition In Philadel phia. ♦ AnvKRTiHKitH at a distance are re spectfully referred to our charges for advertising. We claim that they uro the cheapest In the .State outside of Columbus, and that our paper re duced the price of advertising in this city to its present low rates. Ai. ask a is now said to be a very rich sliver-mining region one of the richest In the world in natural indi cations. The purchuso of Alaska for $7,000,000, by the United States Gov ernment may turn out a very lucra tive one after all. We hope Dr. Thos. H. Worrull, the eloquent Englishman who represents the British Co-operative Societies, will not fuil to visit Columbus before lie leaves Georgia. Let proper measures be taken to huve him ad dress our citizens at the Opera House. • - • Beecher is anxious to withdraw his suit against Moulton, but Moulton will not allow It. He reiterates ids charge of Beecher’s guilt, and de mands a trial. Whatever muy be said against Moulton, he is certainly a niun of wonderful nerve. The number of Immigrants which arrived at the port of New York up to the close of August, 1870, was 01,- 054. The arrivals for the whole of 1872 ware 298,074; for 1878, 207,354, and fur 1874,137,357. In May, 1872, alone 50,054 immigrants landed at Castle Garden, or nearly as many as fur the first eight months of this year. The New York Herald says one re sult. of this iron-bound policy has been that the Republican party has to-day substantially no existence in most of the Southern States. In 1808- tt it ruled in every Southern State, and it oouuted among it members a number or eminent Southern whites. To-day it can count only on South Carolina and Mississippi, and not cer tainly on those. The New Y’ork Tribune, In an art-1- ele on ‘‘The Southern Stage,” men tions every house and theatre of note in the South,except tliut of Columbus. Wo beg to cull the attention of the Tribune to the opera house in this city, which is superior in size to De Give’s at Atlanta, and equal In every thing except size to any opera house in the State. Columbus, Georgia, Is a staid, respectable city, with little pretention, but blest with as many musical amateurs, population consid ered, and us critical musical taste as ran be found in the State. * Gen. William Trenton's speech at Eminence, Kentucky, is the best that we have read concerning the currency question, He takes middle ground while holding to hard money us the true and only currency, his belief is that the first issue of paper money was only justified, if at all. by the exigency of the times; that resumption should have boon under taken immediately after the war, but that the depressed condition of the country will not permit of the pres ent oourse. He advises the repeal of the act of January last, and thus a restoration of things as they were; and that the Government shall also repeat all invidious discriminations against its own currenojr, making it receivable at its Custom Houses for imports and exports. The following from the Now York Tribune fully explains the views of the Supremo Court concerning the forced oommingliug of white and black pupils in public schools. The question Is finally settled according to the laws of nature and of sound reason: “The Interesting ease in which a colored clergyman of Brooklyn sought the intervention of the courts to compel the admtsston of his son to a public school set apart for the in struction of white pupils exclusively, was decided yesterday by Supreme Justice Gilbert. The decision sus tained the claim of the Board of Education, that they have ttie right under the statutes to prescribe upon what terms and conditions the bene fits of the free school system shall tie enjoyed within their jurisdiction. It was held further that the regulation under consideration was not in con flict cither with the acts of the Legis lature or with the Civil Rights not, tieeause It does not appear that colored pupils are thereby deprived of any advantages, facilities, orprivi l|gs, extended to arfotber cites. This decision is amply sustained by preoedent.” Senator Thurman is confident of n democrat victory in Ohio. ••ctelom'i." We protest oguirist the plagued tttlo. A writer In the London Times says that “beggnrs In Amsterdam are as thick as Colonels .in America.” One of the greatest charms of the Republic, as flrst founded, was the abolition of all tltlos. This decree, prohibiting the retention of hered itary titles, gave rise to a plugue as bad as any social plugue can be. The curious anomaly of a society where middlo-oged men uro called familiarly by their given names, and beardless boys, or successful green grocers, are styled "Colonel,” is daily seen in our civilization. The good old title, “Mister,” seems fust dying out of usage; and a group of live gentlemen hear themselves desig nated as Colonel, Major, Captain, Henry or Charley—-but rarely, very rarely, is the title "Mister” used by young men addressing each other. Our men of cosmopolitan fame, like Maury or Morse, have to receive their decorations and orders of merit from foreign potentates. None but the Frenchman knows what a talis man, what an incentive to noble deeds, was the Cross of the Legion of Honor. In our American “progress” we Ignore the great discoverer—the benefactor of the world’s commerce; we are too republican to allow any medal Indicative of a nation’s grat itude; yet a store clerk is called “Colonel”I In our society it would be a rudeness to ask, “What army did you belong to ?” for these “Colonels,” the chances ure, never held a com mission arid never saw a battle. The legitimate result of this wholesale grant of field officers’ commissions to beardless youths, middle-uged merchants, or successful business men, is that (lie negroes have caught the infection. "Boys,” “girls,” “men,” and “women,” have ceased to exist. An advertisement, calling for a cook and dining-room servant, Is answered by a colored “Uuhj,” desirous of hiring herself as a cook; or a colored “gentleman," who is anxious to become a dining-room servant. It is now In order to adver tise as follows: Wanted. A colored lady will please apply for the ptaee of eooli at the house of Colonel Snodgrass, who keeps the pop ular Howling Alley. Really, it is rare to find any old gentleman, who lias beeh successful in any pursuit, upon whom has not been inflicted the title of "Colonel” or “Judge.” The word “Colonel” is a decided nuisance. • ♦ • Judge Hersohel V. Johnson Is Un latest candidateforGovernor of Geor gia. His admirable management of the Clinton riot cases shows tliut he would make the right sort of Govern or, but it also gives rise to a doubt whether such a rare judge can be spared from ttie bench at this time. N. V. Tribune. Ex-Governor Johnson lias already illustrated Oeorgla ns Governor, and the people will rally to Ids support should he decide to be a candidate. Wo do not know a man in Georgia who would better grace the judicial chair than Gov. Smith. We hope some day to see him a cabinet officer. Georgia is bound to have a good Gov ernor, for she can not do builly bv electing eitder of t lie throe most pop ular men, Colquitt,, Smith and John son. - ♦ • The Farce of JrsTicE.—Jay Gould Is not imprisoned, yet lie confessed by his act of “restitution" that lie liad several millions of dollars that did not belong to him. Mr. Tweed is only nominally under duress, yet, everybody knows tliut lie took six millions of the people’s money— enough to build a rapid transit rail road.- A r . F. Herald. The day is coming when the evils of mnlfeasance and maladministra tion will effect their own cure. Pre judiced or corrupt judges will be turned out, and law ascend from its present low estate of pettifogging practice. Is it Carelessness? If so it is Gross Carelessness. The Columbus Enquirer writes a strong article against State aid for private enter prises. It thinks the old law of sup,, ply and demand should regulate the building of railroads. When the peo ple of a section are able to pay for u railroad let it. be built, and not before. The granting of State aid Is a burden some taxation of tlie people for some tiling for which they would not pay voluntarily, and is an injustice to private enterprise in building other roads'— Atlanta Herald. The editorial referred to above was written for and published in the Co lumbus Times. Ttie Atlanta Herald, however, has become habituated to crediting the Enquirer with articles copied from the Times. It is now known that tho Demo crate gained largely in the Republi can State of Maine. The New Y'ork Tribune contains the following: Later returns are more discouraging to Republicans than they had hoped At, first it was thought that, Demo cratic gains would be heavy only in small towns; but later returns show that the demoralization has extended far into the interior, and that the percentage of decrease in tho Repub lican majority is growing larger as ! tho returns come in. A New Y'ork exchange says: “The throe needful permit*—State, county and town—for one exhibition, cost more in North Carolina than in all the cities north of Richmond put together.” We hope Georgia will not be cursed with legislators so narrow-minded ns to repeat this uncivilized iiolioy. The Columbus Times Is the only first-class Daily |wiper published in Georgia at the low price of stt per annum. Cash in advance is our in variable rule. ♦ .—- Fifteen years are said to have wroaght a great change in the per sonal appearance of the late Presi dent of the Confederate States. He is now quite gray, and exhibits in a marked degree the effects of so many years of anxiety and care. Tall in person, rather attenuated, but | erect and manly in bearing, he re i mains still the elegant ami affable gentleman which always distin guished him in society. He is in fee ble health, and great caution has I been enjoined u|xn him by his physi | einn. THE TIMES: SATURDAY MORNING, SEPTEMBER IS, 1875. THE EIMIMHJN OF INTO. WAAT EFFECT THE PENNSYLVANIA DEC LARATION FOR INFLATION WILL HAVE I upon its warms. The New Y'ork Tribune collates (ruin vurlous sources the opinions of tho press concerning the Penn sylvania election. We give the re sults below; ; Tho platform of the Pennsylvania Democracy has a true ring, and is good enough for the National Con vention next. tiny .—lndianapolis] Sentinel (Hem.) Tho capture of so important a State Convention by the Rag-money crowd lias undoubtedly made ft much more difficult to preserve the Democratic National Convention from a like fate next year. But It inis also made it | much more probable that we shall j see a break-up of parties and anew deal. — S/irlngfleli) HepublUmu (hul.) j It must bo clear now to everybody, as heretofore to the more competent • observers, that if the Democracy win In this State, the Democratic party will be carried headlong and hy wholesale for tho inflation scheme, the Hurd-tnonoy Democracy of the Eastern States holding out at most for a feeble phrase in the platform, over which iliey may equivocate.— Cincinnati Commercial (lad.) If the Democrats carry Ohio and Pennsylvania and it is evident that these two States are mutually helping each other—two tilings may be ac cepted as settled; first, that the West will control ttie Presidential election; and second, tliut anti-resumption and the abolition of the National Bank svstpm will be the leading plank in the National Democratic platform. I St. lends Jle/utblicnn (Ind.) Willi Pennsylvania added to Ohio and Indiana, we can ufford, if neces sary, to allow New Y'ork to remain, wedded to her golden calf. Wo can succeed in electing the next President over t he geld gam biers of YY'all street, ttie thieves of Tammany Hall, anil the Canal Ring. Ohio has pojnted the way. Pennsylvania, with her gi gantic strength, is following in the wake, unit the whole South is bring ing up the rear. Wall street and Tuiumany Hull combined cuu’t run tlie manufacturers of Pennsylvania, tho farmers of the West, and the planters of the South. - Cincinnati Enquirer (Inflation Deal.) The growth of Uilh repudiation or bottomless debt-money sentiment since 1858 has lieen steady arid vigor ous, ns all political events and ap pearances iniw combine to show. That it will “sweep the country” in the approaching Presidential contest is not among the most Improbable events of the future. If Mr. Grant should uguiri be placed on the Presi dential course, there is hardly a rea sonable ground for doubt that the party of repudiation would prevail. Add to the bottomless debt-money delusion the extensive political and personal dislike of tho Long Brunch junketer,and it is a safe prophecy that the repudiationist “ Democracy” would carry everything before it.. Chirnqn Times I hut.) The currency issue runs right through the middle of both parties. Some believe that the tendency now is for the inflationist Republicans to come over to the side of honest money mid make the tight on that question. We are glad to see any body coming over from falsehood fo truth, but it does not look like a hopeless task to unite either party on tliis issue. It is more probable that the National conventions will botli treat the question as gingerly us possible, and strive to rally their armies on the old war cries, but at present the Republicans have a de cided advantages us the champions of honest money. Huston llernld (Ind.) All depends on Ohio. If that State goes Democratic in October it will lie next to impossible for the Republi cans to carry Pennsylvania in No vember; and If Democracy and infla tion should sweep both these great central States of the Union, the out look for honest lliianee is dark in deed. But should the inflation De mocracy receive a decided check at the Ohio election, their fate in Penn sylvania is sealed. The action of the Pennsylvania Democracy, therefore, will iucrciiso the already intense in terest which is felt in ttie Ohio elec tion. —Detroit Tribune tlirp.) Money is no doubt a question of great dignity and moment: but a free government rises to a higher pitch of merit. It therefore behooves ail the people who have recoiled in disgust from Grunt and Giantism to unite in support of Democratic principles, whatever views they may entertain on the financial question. First let us make sure that wo have a country worth being concerned about; anil tlien wo may concern ourselves as to what kind of currency its people may circulate. Petersburg ( l'n. ) Inile.r ,[• .Ijqmal ( Hem.) Thu free jetty work by tho Captain Eads, as it is sometimes too frequent ly called by the press, will cost a good iTnlnd sum to the public. Not until lie has increased the depth to twenty feet by the action of the increased current of the pent-up river, does he receive anything from the Govern ment. Then the first installment of $500,000 will be paid to him; and an other $5500.000 will be bunded over for an additional two feet of depth, and so on for each two feet until the channel is deepened to full thirty feet. Still another sum is to be paid a year after the completion of the j work, if the depth continues to be ! maintained. The whole amount ap propriated by Congress for the con struction of these jetties is $5,250,txx). But this is not ail. Government has also contracted to allow Captain Ends $1,000,000 a year for a term of twenty years for keeping his work in order. This bargain nils been freely de nounced as a job. It certainly calls for very liberal payments of money. A million for each one of twenty years, after its completion, seems | enormous. Should the jetty sys; sm | operate according to the contractor's expectation, tlie velocity of the cur rent will clear out all the mud, uud he will be put to no further expense than to keep the piles end the mat tresses in their places. That part of the contract seems singularly favora ble to Captain Eads. A closer regard for economy would have induced tho Government to look after the jetties when completed ami approved, at its own expense. But. whatever objec tion is made to the stupendous cost of the improvement, and the job that possibly lurks within it, there can be no two opinions upon the desirability of scouring out the foul mouth of the Mississippi.— Memphis Aralanehe. Bavaria at the Centennial — The Augsgurg Allgemeuu ' Zeituhg of Au gust 17 informs us that. Bavarian art and industry will be, represented at Philadelphia next year by 14-5 exhib itors of tho industrial and 55 of the artistic class, making a total of 200, or one-fourth of the whole number of exhibitors through whom Germany is preparing to show us what she lias done mid call do.

In addition j to tho items telegraphed from Monte I gomery yesterday and published in ; our paper, the Convention, adopted 1 section 27: That every citizen lias a \ right to bear arms in defense of htm sdf and the State. j Section 30, concerning tho allegi i ance of Alabama to the General Gov ernment, owing to a substitute pro posed by Mr. Knox, caused oonsidera- I ble debate. Mr. Knox’s substitute ! was laid on the table. Mr. Lnrigdon then offered tlie fol lowing : Mr. Langdon, a separate section, to come in immediately after section 37, i as follows; “That Alabama is a free | and indojiendeutßtate, subject only I to the Constitution of the United [States; and, ns the preservation of the States and the maintenance of | their governments are necessary to ; an indestructible Union and were in : tended to co-cxist with it, the Gen eral Assembly is not authorized to adopt, nor will the people over assent to, any amendment of the Constitu tion of the United States which may in anywise impair tho right of local self-government belonging to the people of tlilsState.” Air. Foster, of Barbour, called for the previous question, and the eull j was not sustained. The Convention adjourned until 12 j o’clock to-morrow. - • A “Jnnnellst's Juel." “Majali” Edwards nnd “Majah” Foster are distinguished “jiinnclists” iof Hi. Louis. ''Majah’' Edwards sheds Ids phosphorus in the columns of the Times, while “Majah” Foster eats catfish and exudes intellect in behalf of the Erening Journal. These two estimable gentlemen are gifted in tlie matter of “onah.” They lock ed horns in the discussion of tlie pro priety of Jeff Davis' invitation to ad dress tlie Winnebago Agricultural Association, and their rcsjiective “oualis’’ were so abraded in the dis cussion of the matter that nothing but blood, and bloody blood at that, could repair the damage. So they went out uud “tit a dool” with “pis tuals” loaded with act ual powder ami real lead. It was u “game” affair. Both men were game—that is, if you call u Imre or a sheep game. When the fatal word was given “Majali” Foster closed his eyes, commended his soul to God, and nulled the trig ger. The bullet killed a cow in a neighboring field. “Majah” Edwards shut Ids eyes, mentally, ejaculated “Goodbye, mother,'’and pulled* the trigger. His bullet grazed tlie ear of the seconds, wtm was standing thirty paces to the right. “Majah” Edwards demanded a second shot, hut the second whose ear was blending per emptorily refused to accede to the request, unless he would agree to shoot at him instead of "Majali" Fos ter. The affair was then amicably adjusted, and the two game “jiiiine llsts” fell upon each other's necks, wept, and rolled up their sleeves to hunt for strawberry murks. “Majah” Faster then said he would go to the hotel and change his bowsers. Tho trowsers (white duck) looked as if they needed changing. Indeed it is intimated that the laundress charged "Majah” Foster five dollars for doing them up. After bathing their re spective honors in champagne, and taking up a collection to pay the Illinois fanner for the cow killed by “Majali” Foster, the party returned to St, Louis, ami have siienttbe time since the meeting in delivering lec tures on the Code to the strawberry nosed habitudes of their favorite bar rooms. Her.deo.C. Hard ingin Indi anapolis Journal. The great distinguishment of Col. Benton was the warfare which lie made as a member of the Senate of the United States upon the National Bank. The National Bank system of his day was not so anti-Democratic, nor was it calculated by its tenor to create such a moneyed oligarchy ns our present National Banks. Tho old National Bank which Col. Benton op posed had a capital of $35,000,000. It was chartered for twenty years. Col onel Benton regarded such nri insti tution us dangerous to the liberties of the country, because of the undue influence it, was able to exercise upon the elections.
