THE PRESIDENTIAL STEAL.
The electoral commission is about
completing its infamous work. In the
alphabetical order of States our latest
advices say that Vcrmount has been
reached, and an inelegible elector is a
poor stumbling block to an cight-to
seven tribunal which with .audacious
cunaing turned over the votes of I lor*
ida and Louisiana to Hayes when there
was the most undeniable proot that the
States had gone for Tilden. The Dem
oeratic programme of filibuster and de
lay not receiving the necessary sanction
the count wi Ibe completed this week.
The bill providing fer anew election
has passed the House, but as it is not
likoly to go through the Senate or re
ceive the President’s signature, the
country having no other alternative,
must endure the usurpation unscrupu„
lously put upon it by the Republican
party, and for which this party must
stand responsible before the people.
President Grant prohibited a parade
of military companies in South Caroli
na on Washington’s birthday, and Gov.
ernor Hampton issued the following
proclamation :
State of South Carolina, 1
Executive Chamber. J-
Columbia, S. C. Feb. 20, 1877. J
His Excellency the President of the
United States, having ordered that the
white militia companies of the State
should not parade on the 22d inst, to
celebrate Washington's Birthday, in
doference to the office he holds, I here*,
by call upon the organizations to post
pone to some future day this manitesta
tioD of their respect to the memory of
that illustrious President, whose high
est ambition it was, as it was his chief
glory, to observe the Constitution and
obey the laws of his comtry, If he
arbitrary commands of a Chiet Execu
tive who has not sought to emulate the
virtues of Washington, deprive the cit
izens of this State of the privilege of
joining publicly in paying reverence to
that day so sacred to every American
patriot, we can at least show by our obe
dience to constituted authority, howev
er arbitrarily exercised, that we are not
unworthy to be the countrymen of
Washington. We must therefore remit
to some more auspicious period, which
I trust is not far distant, the exercise of
our right to commenmorate tie civic
virtues of that unsullied character who
wielded his svord only to found and
perpetuate that American constitutional
liberty which is now denied to the citi
zens of South Carolina.
Wade Hampton, Governor.
Donn Piatt’s fiery article which told
the truth so forcibly about the crown
ing usurpation, has caused his indict'*
ment by the Grand Jury of the District
of Columbia, which reads as follows:
‘‘Piatt, on the 18th day of February
1877, under the protection of the laws
of the United States, owing allegiance
and fidelity, and not weighing the duty
of his said allegiance and fidelity to the
said United States of America, but be
ing a seditious person, falsely, mali
ciously and unlawfully intending and
coutriving the peace and tranquillity of
the said United States of America to
disquiet, molest and disturb, and as
much aj in him lay rebellion ?nd insur
rection against the authority of the said
United States of America and the law
thereof, to incite, set on foot, assist and
engage in, and to bring the Constitution
and the law of the Uuited States of
America into contempt, and to prevent
the execution thereof, did, on the day
and year last oversaid, with force of
arms, unlawfully, maliciously, felonious
ly and seditiously, set on foot a rebell
ion*and insurrection pgainst the author
ity of the United States.”
This rebellion must be a terrible af
fair, and should be crushed at once.—
The army should at once “on to Wash
ington” and quiet the insurrection.
Col. John 11. Christy, of the Athens
Watchman, died on the 26th instant
from injuries sustained while getting off
the train, the wheels of one of the cars
passing over his foot. Col Christy
was one of the ablest and most influen
tial journalists of the State, and his
loss will be deeply felt by the fraternity
as well as the people with whom he was
acquainted everywhere. He was popu
lar with the people of his section, and
at one time was elected to Congress
from the Athens district, but could not
take his seat, his disabilities not having
been at that time removed.
The Democratic party in losing the
Presidency, says the Cincinnati Enquir
er, is now in the condition of the old
man who lost his wife. The neighbors
came in to console and condole with
him, and sympathetically inquired if
his wife was willing to die. “Willing,”
said the old man, “she was obleeged
to.”
Grantism begau and ended in corrup
tion. As Hayesism begius by stealing
the Presidency, what better have we
now to expect than what already has
been endured ?
It is anticipated that Hayes will very
soon start out lecturing on “What I
know about gittin’ there.”
The receiver of stolen goods is no bet
ter than the thief. Hayes and the re
turning boards cm now lock arm*.
Ulysses I lets off a salute to his success
or, the man who was not elected , hut
returned to power fraudulently , wil -
lingly makes himself the first Amet
icon Presidential usurpci', and Ulys
ses will torday take his parting smile
and vacate.
Returning Board Hayes and Willing
Accomplice Wheeler will take
the Presidential chair so neatly stolen
for them by the thieves of the Repub.
lican party.
An eight spot over a seven beats jus
tice and the facts in getting a man into
the Presidency, the days of political
honesty and statesmanship being over.

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.
The Comm ssion and Congress—
Only six More Days— The Un
ion Takes a New Departure—
Probabilities of the Presiden
tial Struggle— The Appropria
tion Bills—The President’s
Last Sunday Talk, etc.
Washington, D. C. Feb. 26, 1877.
Editor Calhoun Times :
The Senate having sustained the
Electoral Commission in giving Hayes
and Wheeler three votes from Oregon,
and the House having also on Saturday
voted on the question, and the two
agreeing, the decision of
the Commission stands. This took from
the Democrats the last vote on which
they beleived they had a better claim
than the Republicans, and presented
the naked question of allowing the
count to to go on and the defeated can
candidate to be inaugurated, or prevent
ing by parliamentary delays,the compleo
tion of the count. Up to this time there
had been hope of justice from the Com
mission, but it was gone. The
Houses met in joint Convention and ob
jection was made to counting one of the
electoral votes of Pennsvyvania, the
Houses separated, aud the House of
Representatives took a recess till this
morning.
The first motion on the Democratic
side this morning was to read the testi~
mowyinthe Pennsylvania case. This was
carried by 133 to 118. After the testi
monv was read the two hours argument
commenced and is now going on.
If the Democrats can maiutain the
strength, and cause tho testimony to be
read in the South Carolina case, the re
sult cannot of course be announced be
fore March 4th.
With only six days of the session left
Congress has an unusual amount of work
to do. Let alone the Presidential count
which is a hindrance to the transaction
of legislative business, the aj propria*
tion bills are almost all yet to be per
fected. Some are in Conference Com
mittees, and will be speedily reported
therefrom, but the differences of the
two Houses on all these bills are very
great and can hardly be reconciled in
the short time remaining. It might be
done if the spirit of compromise was
abroad, but that seems to have died
when the Electoral bill passed. An ex
tra session is as certain to come as the
4th of M Brch. These extra sessions hav
invariably been damaging to the party
in power, but in the present anomalous
condition of political affairs it is hard
to foresee results.
The Union of Friday announces that
oa ihe 4th of March Mr. Corcoran
would disconnect himself with the own
ership of that paper, either by its sale
or suspension, and that Hon. Montgom
ery Blair’s services as editor would cease
at that date. But this morning, aL
though Mr. Blair’s name is not with
drawn, the paper abandons its conserv
ative tone, and apnears to take a fresh
and vigorous start. If it foreshadow?
the course of the party, the President
tial count will not be completed by the
4th cf March and the presiding officer
of the Senate will assume the functions
of Chief Magistrate. The Union also
speaks of Mr. liewitt as insufficient,
and calls upon bolder men to take the
lead.
If the Democrats prevent a declara
tion of Haye’s election it is probable
that President Grant will resign on the
3d of March, andsome Senator—Conk
ling, Morton, Hamlin or Sherman—be
on the some day elected to preside over
the Senate. Such persons would be
acting President UDtil an election could
be held.
The arm} appropriation bill, reported
to the House on Saturday, provides for
reductions ot the army as follows :
Cavalry regiments to eight; artillery to
four ; infantry to sixteen. It also pro*
hibits the use of any money appropiia
ted for the expenses of the army, in
support of the Radical governments in
South Carolina or Louisiana.
The Deficiency. Naval, post office and
Legislative appropriation bills were sent
to Committees of Coif renee. Aside
p
from this and the action of the two
Houses on the report of the Electoral
Commission given above, the proceed*
ings of Congress were devoid of inter*
est. It may be mentioned, in this con
nection, that the vote in the House
Committee on appropriation, against
agreeing to Senate amendments increas
ing House estimates, for post office ap
propi ; ations, was uuunanimous. The
absolute necessity for economy is be
coming apparant to both parties.
The regular Sunday interview of the
press reporter w ith the President,though
the last of the series, was devoid of in
terest, except that the President said he
had no present intention of resigning on
the 3d of March to enable the Senate
to elect on that day a presiding officer
who could at once assume the duties of
the Presidency. Reno.

A Pleasant Letter from a Pleas*,
ant Writer Another Model
Farm.
Editor Calhoun 1 imes :
Every week, as I unfold the news
papers sent me by thoughtful friends
there rises before my mind’s eye the
handsome face and eager blue eves of a
certain Calhoun youth to whom I yield
ed a half-promise to send a letter for
publication in your columns. I have
been twice reminded by him—and, as
I never break a promise, I have sharp
ened my favorite pencil to attempt a
letter for the Times.
“Uncle Sam has called my attention
*0 an account in you* paper of a ram
ble over Gov. Brown’s farm—near Cal
houn—which is spoken of as “perhaps
the most desirable farm in Georgia ”
Let me tell you of a desirable farm be
longing to a modest little old country
doctor.
It is situated in Rockdale county,
five miles from Conyers, seven from
Covington, five from Oxford, three from
the railroad bridge over Yellow river,
and is bounded on one side by Yellow
river, and on another by “Rig Haynes
creek," which accounts for the line
“bottom lands” on the place. The farm
is about 1200 acres in extent, but only
600 are cultivated. Last year it pro
duced 91 bales of cotton, the year be*
fore 136. In 1876 it yielded, by act
ual measure, 7600 bushels of corn—in
1875, 7000 bushels. In 1875 600
bushels of wheat—last year 305 bush
els. About sixty-five hands, including
white and black, old and young, are
employed to cultivate the farm. I
would like to tell you something of each
one. Every Saturday morning one
might enjoy a study of faces, as they
crowd around the steps of the front
verandah to have a talk with “Marse
Doc.” I often watch them from a win
dow and smile at their anxious faces—
such veritable grown up-children they
are—so easily ruled by a dignified
white man.
There are four families of white ten
ants on the place : Mr. Pleasant Pucket.
Mr James Berry, Mr. George Burnett,
and Mr. John Arnold represent the
fareiliea respectively. Mr. Pleasant P.
was rightly named. He is a slender,
red headed, red faced, red-whiskered
man, wearing a perpetual geod-humored
sirnDer on his radiant visage, and is
always bustling about as though he
were the one thing needful on a farm.
He walks as if some unseen force im
pelled him violently forward sorely
against his will—as a dignifi and rooster
struts leisurely in a strong wind.
Mr. James B. is a good natuied, gray
headed unwieldy old gentlemau who ap
pears to be hastening to pick up some
thing a short distance ahead. He has
several sons. Mr. George B. is a per
fect Hercules and marches about with
a half-scornful complacency, but with a
smile of pity for little '.folks. He has
lived among the Indians in the Far
West; fought the Sioux tribe for
months—but could not resist a pair of
bright eyes pertaining to a merry Geor
gia girl. So he has built him a neat
little cot —and, on summer afternoons,
can be seen sitting in a vine-covered
porch, with his kind-hearted wife and
three interesting children. I admire
him more thus than he were engaged
in accumulating scalps of savage Sioux
After all—woman is the sine qua non.
Mr. John A.’s family live out of sight
of our home, and I have never become
acquainted with any member of his fam
iJy-
I ought to tell you something about
the stock—the horses, mules, cows and
such. However, since I’ve told you
about that more interesting animal who
asscyts his supremacy over the others. I
will beg to be excused. I’m afraid of
cows, and have *‘cut” the acquaintance
even of the horses since one merry lit
tle pony ran away with me and risked
my life for pure fuo. 1 have no objec
tions to handsome farmer boys or merry
milkmaids, but I never go to the ex
tremity of breathless admiration or the
former, nor do I consider any of the lat
ter quite “a goddess with giace clad
about.” But I proposed to tell you
about a farm, and have had more to say
of the farmers than the farm. Well, I
consider humanity more amusing, more
interesting and more instructive than
anything else.
In conclusion, I will remind you that
l am heiress to just one lot of the above
mentioned farm—and that is a bit of
the family butying-ground. I’m in
clined to hope never to come into pos
session of that.
Yours, &c., Annie Logan.
A North Carolina Tragedy. —ln
Watauga county, North, Carolina, on
Friday last, a crowd collected at the
house of Elkany South for the purpose
of having a frolic. Mrs. South object
ed, but her wishes were about to be set
aside when Smith Tyre, a member of
the party took her part. This brought
about still harder words, and a free fight
grew ont of the di cussiou. In this
fight Abe Stout and John Stout were
killed, and some other of the partici
pants were injuied. An attempt was
made also to kill Mr&. South, but she
escaped with her life. Frank Osborne,
one of the chief of the rioters, fled and
concealed himself, and a few days later
an officer, armeJ with a process, went in
search of and found him. Osborne re
sisted arrest, and was shot and instantl)
killed.

In range of work this machie canrot be equalled. Wi 11 work equally well on thi
or thin goods, from gauze to heaviest beaver coatings, or even leather, witheut ch ange
of needle, tension or thread. We will warrant them to do this ! Our fine work is equal
to any. and our heavy work excels that of any other machine in the world.
The machine makes the celebrated lock stitch (the stitch invented by Mr. Howe.)
on both sides. The tensions are positivr both upper and lower thread. The shut
tension is u on the thread as it leaves thhuttle, and not upon the bobbin, as in mo
machines, and t-As tension is invariable, whether the bobbin be full or nearly empty,
is obtained by turning a screw in the shutt I*, 1 *, and can be changed in a moment, withoa
taking out the work, breaking the thread hreading through holes.
What we claim, in substance is, that this is an honest machine, aud if put in y o
family will do any and all of your work peifccily, will last a lifetime, is a willing and
ready servant, and is not subject to FITS.
Persons who have tried all machines are unanimous in declaring this to bathe easiest
learned of any in the market In the e ajority of cases our customers learn from the
instruction book without further aid.
EVERY MACHINE WARRNTED.
If you are thinking of buying, and are favor of any particular
machine, at least examine the “ Howe” before you purchase.
