raise PROVISIONS.
A foreign war is immineut, in fact
almost a certainty. Russia and Turkey,
it is more than probable will now find
but one way to settle their differences
—by a resort to arms. Other powers
will certainly become entangled in the
prospective conflict, and it is likely that
France will be the only European pow
er not involved. Turkey is eager for
the strjggle, Austrian blood runs
warm, and Russia’s metal is up while
England is determined to have a fair
show, and Hungary is waiting for an
opportunity. No sooner will the strife
fwhich will no doubt cost a million of
lives' fairly begin than this country
will be called upon to meet a heavy
draft for supplies. Cotton, already at
a trifling low price will, be a staple
without a demand for it, and he who
sees wisely will see that his provision
crop is not neglected. Bread stuffs are
already advancing in price in view of
the impending struggle. It is not too
late to lay your plans, and we advise
all to read the timely circular of Com
missioner Janes, aud take his judicious
advice.
OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.
The Sad Effect of Irregular Av
enues—The Arlington Estate
and the Counts.—Rewards of
Merit—The Washington Monu
ment —Etc., etc.
Washington, D. C. April 16,1877.
Editor Calhoun 7 lines :
All the streets of Washington, as ev
erybody knows, cross each other at
right angles, running either north and
south or east aod west, and this ar
rangement is greatly to the benefit of
strangers and carpet baggers, as well as
of our own citizens. But the engineer
ho planned the city was a Frechman,
and after conceding this much of reg
ularity to his idea of Republican sim
plicity he threw across the city in re*
memberance of his beloved Paris twen
ty or thirty avenues running in all di
rections known to the compass, and in
tersecting each other and the streets in
the m<3St confusing and absurd manner.
The crookedness of Boston streets is
nothing to the infinite variety of an"
glcs created by our avenues. Hence
the present and prospective woes of a
discordant and broken Republican par
ty. It is said that, Mr. Ilayes, who
came here with his face fixed like a
flint, due north, wandered away, on the
morning after his arrival, from the
kindly and disinterested care of Sena
tor (now Secretary) Sherman, and
strolled about the city. He thought
he was going on all right, and stopped
now and then to let his heart bleed as
on the Bth of November, for some pass
ing African who had got up early to
rob his conservative neighbor’s hen
roost, when he suddenly found himself
©n the'banks of the Potomac, his face
due south. The change came without
his knowing it. He had somehow got
into one cf those perplexing avenues,
had glided from that into another, and
finally found him eif as above, with his
back to all his old friends. Then he
kicked the first African he met, took
an old conservative citizen as a guide,
and docs not now appear in public with
out him. Ibis fable teaches that a
Fraudulent President is not equal to a
combinati n of angles.
'1 here is a proposition to make to
Spotted Tail some suitable recognition
of his services itv bringing upon the
reservations, a few days sinoo a large
number--some 1500—ho3til Indians.
As the achievement virtually ends an
expensive and bioody war, some suita
ble reward would seem to be proper.—
The Kvotrug 3tur of this city, I be
lieve, first suggested the idea. Rut
they confine the practico to the treat,
meat of Indians. There are hundreds
of agitators in the n*jrth more danger
ous to the peace and more destructive
to the prosperity of the country, than
all the Indians in the west. Let us
send out meu to '-‘bring in” Phillips,
and Garrison and Blaine, and old Ben
Wade, and make the reward equal to
the service. We cau well afford to set
apart a portion of the public domain
for these men, where, if they quarrel,
they will afflict only themselves, and to
remunerate liberally those who induce
them to take up a residence on it.
Pictures of the Washington monu
mentshould hereafter havethatstructure
on wheels. The Engineers have made
another report, and this time decide
that the present foundation is unsuffi
cicnt, and if the monument is to be
completed, it must be on higher ground
There is a fine plateau east of the Cap
itol, the highest ground of any extent
in the city, which may be ultimately
chosen.
The heirs of Gen. Lee have entered
suit in the courts for possession of the
Arlington estate, to which the Govern
ment acquired title during the war by
tax sale. All similar suits against the
Government have been successful, and
there is do reason to doubt that this
will be. What gives special interest to
the case is the prominence of the for
mer occupant and the fact that thou
sands of Federal soldiers are buried in
a beautiful “National Cemetery,” with
in the estate no doubt suitable provis*
ion will be made for their remaining
the r e.
The Duly oi Farmers in View
oi the Impending Europe
an War.
State of Georgia,
Department of Agriculture,
Atlanta, April 17th, 1877.
To the Farmers of Georgia :
In view of the threatened war in the
east— which seems now to be unavoida
ble—it becomes us as prudent men, to
avert, as far as possible, its disastrous
effects upon our industries, by a wise
forecast in our farm economy.
The indications now are that there
will be a protracted war, involving the
leading powers of Europe, the necessary
consequence of which will be a rapid
advance in the price of all food sup
plies.
Even the “rumor of war” has al
ready caused an appreciable advance in
meats and breadstuff's, and a decline in
our gieat staple—cotton. Unusually
large shipments of provisions to the va
rious European ports are already re
ported, and must continue so a long as
the war lasts.
The foreign demand for cotton may
be greatly reduced, and its price fall
below even its present low figures.
In view of these facts, the farmers
of Georgia are urged to increase their
areas in provision crops. It is not yet
too late to increase the area in curn,
even if it has to be done by reducing
the area in cotton. Let farmers plant
enough corn to insure an ample supply
for the ensuing year. Let them plant
crops for their hogs, and force them
forward to secure, as nearly as possible,
a supply of bacon for home consump
tion. Let them plant liberally in Ger
man millet and field peas to supplement
their corn crop in feeding stock, in or
der that more of their corn may be
used for bread.
If the war should be averted—of
which there is, at present, little proba
bility—wo will have lost nothing by
the above policy ; if not, we will have
provided against the possibility of loss
or suffering. In either event, those ■
who adopt the above advice will have j
nothing to regret, while those who do
not, may be compelled to purchase pro* I
visions at ruinously high prices, and
pay for them with cotton at prices even
below the cost of production.
Very respectfully,
Thomas P. Janes,
Commissioner of Agriculture.
How Hayes’ Southern Policy Is
Working.
A Washington special to the Boston
Herald (Radical) says :
“The men here who are watching the
political feeling in the North and hop
ing for the sue lets of Hayes are not a
particle scared by such appeals to the
old South-hating spirit in the North
as are contained in the recent speech of
Wendell Phillips and the resolutions of
the Methodist ministers at Lynn. They
regard such manifestations in the North
as quite likely to increase the kindly
feeling toward Hayes in the South and
perhaps induce some of the Southern
Democrats to join him. It is certain
that such things will help Hayes if
anything will. The visit of Hampton
has certainly helped Mr. Hayes’ pur
pose in regard to the organization of
the House. Those of the friends, who
first thought his calling Hampton here
a m.stake cow admit that it was a very
• Ijvcr pol'tical achievement. Ilayes is
brighter and shrewder than even the
men who knew him best supposed him
to be. It will not do to look for possi*
ble Democratic defections in the South
alone. This is a development of the
past day or two, and it must be admit
ted that although the ranks are still
unbroken it is by no- means impossible
that Hayes may secure the organization
of the House.”
If you are to marry a delicate, pale
and sickly lady, make her take Dr. J
H, McLean's Stiengthening Cordial
and Blood Purifier; it v talizes and
purifies the blood, strength ns and in
vigorates. courses the rich blojd to the
chock again. Dr. J. H. iVhLean, 314
Chestnut St., St, Louis, Mo.
How Mrs. Hayes Looks.
Mrs. Hayes is of medium height and
squarely built. Her head and features
are large. So is her waist, and her
hands and feet arc in proportion. She
has a magnificent suit of hair. It is so
heavy and black, and is dressed so
smoothly, that in the daytime it looks
dark and precise in contrast with her
clear olive complexion The most
prominent feature of her face is the
mouth, which is large (the jaw is as
broad as a man’s) and conspicuously
filled with strong white teeth. The
lips are particularly firm and full, with
the jaw indicating decision of charac
ter aod an ardent temperament. The
forehead is broad and smooth, and the
eyebrows are regular. The eyes are
large but deeply set, and are of that
peculiar gray which does not mean a
twilight depth of blue, or an azure
light of gray. The are a decided gray,
admitting of all the steel tints ftom
that of cold metal to the gleam and
glitter of the polished ore. In the
glow of intense feeling such as anima
ted her on Inauguration Day and at
her first public reception, her eyes
looked as black as night, and they had
a luster such as is rarely seen. She
made no effort to conceal her delight.

Astronomers have discovered, withe
in the past few weeks, that a dreadful
conflagration has been going on in the
beautiful constellation of the Swan.—
Some mighty sun has undoubtedly been
destroyed, alongside of which our earth
would look like a boy’s marble. The
distance is calculated about 300,000,-
000,000,000,0000, —or it may only be
300,000,000,000,000,- hut it is no
greater than the difference between
Duryea’s Satin Gloss Starch and Dur

similar preparations offered by other
manafacturers. They have distanced
all competitors, carried off the great

In range of work this machie canrot be equalled. Will work equally well sb th
or thin goods, from gauze to heaviest beaver coatings, or even leather, without? change
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. Hoowe.) is
on both sides. The tensions are positivr both upper and lower thread. The shuttle
tension is u on the thread as it leaves thhuttle, and not upon the bobbin, as in moat
machines, and t-.is tension is invariable, whether the bobbin be full or nearly empty,
is obtained by turning a screw in the shutt’", and can be changed in a moment, without
taking out the work, breaking the thread breading through holes.
What we claim, in substance ii, t >at thit is an honest machine, aud* it
family will do any and all oi )ur work peifcctly, will last a lifetime, is il
ready servant, and is not subject to FITS.

learned of any in the market In the n ajority of cases our customers learn from the
instruction book without further aid.
