Saturday, May 12. 1877.
Mr. Jefferson Davis is and has been
for some time residing at “Beauvoir,”
Miss., tho residence of Mrs. Sarah A.
Dorsey, on the Gulf coast, between Mo*
bi’e and New Orleans, where he is en
gaged preparing, with tho assistance of
Major W. T. WalthaJ, his “Memoirs, ’’
soon to be published by the Appletons.
He is in excellent health, and looks
younger thaa he did a few years ago,
iho result probably of the salt air of
tdie Gulf and rest from several litiga
dons, the end of which, however, left
him, it is alleged, almost penniless.
The New York Suo in alludiDg to
the present Eastern war, says : “All
wars are anti-Christian ; but the most
sacrilegious, it seems to us, are those
waged in the name of Christianity.—
The whole responsibility of this war
rasts on Russia, and, though its objects
are professedly humane, they are too
transparent to delude the most simple.
If the enthusiasm of humanity be her
guiding principle, let her free Poland
peaceably instead of deluging the terri
tories of her neighbor with blood to
free populations which don’t belong to
her. Let her introduce the religious
tolerance whiob exists in Turkey, in
stead of devastating its plains with fire
and sword in the name of the religion
tff love.”
We have received from Messrs. John
Triplett and A. J. Ilansell, of the local
press of Thomaeville, a polite and cor
dial invitation to attend tho meeting of
the Georgia Press Association in that
city on next Thursday, stating that am
ple arrangements have been made both
for the oomfort and enjoyment of the
members of tho “gang,” that the Mitch
ell House will furnish “hash” and a
big ball, and that the Floral and Hor
ticultural exhibit will take place during
the visit of tho members, and while we
express our deep regrets at being pre
vented from attending, we also feel
much inclined to thank these gentle*
men for their promised hospitalities.—
We once fell into the hands of the
Thomasville people, and they know how
to treat a fellow so as to make him want
to go back again.
The Romo Tribune says of Gen. W.
T. Wofford, the nominee for rhe Con-
Bfcitutional Convention : “We are uu*
der no obligations to this gentleman.
Wc owe him for nothing, not even a
kind word. Our personal relations, so
far as any can be said to exist between
ns, are none ot the pleasantest ; and in
advocating him as a man to be trusted
in the formation of ctir laws we must
confess to a crucifixion of personal
prejudice. But for all that, there is no
man in the whole State whom we will
more willingly support than him. We
regard him as earnestly conservative in
his views, sound in his judgment and
thoroughly educated in sound political
doctrines, and we are glad of the op
portunity to lay down our owu personal
feelings and do honor to such a man.—
Our State needs his services, and we
trust that all will unite in calling him
to its councils."
The fortieth annual meeting of the
stockholders of the Georgia Railroad
convened *in Augusta Wednesday the
9th. From the annual report of the
Superintendent the following extract is
taken, showing the operations of the
road for the past year: “The gross
earnings for the fiscal year, closing
March 31st, have been 51,143,128 24,
and the expenses $643,110 30, leaving
a net profit of $500,017 94." The Pres
ident of the road in his report says :
“The hopes of increased net profit, as a
result of the largo roductioD of expen
'B€B about the olose of the preceding fis
cal year, have not been fully realized.
The heavy losses by fire and flood, at
Oconee and Macon, not only fbr renew
id of bridges, but by heavy diversion
of business, fell mainly on this year’s
business, 'l'be heavy loss also by the
opening ot the Northeastern Road from
Athens, has been, as was expected, ae-
verely felt. Strangely enough, this ri
val road was advocated and sustained by
0”r largest stockholders, without whose
assistance it could not have been built.
As the company did not contribute to
this hostile enterprise, the stockholders
have no right to complain of a meas
ure which they had nop ower to pre
vent.”

A terrible drought prevails in parts

The citizens of Winfield, Kansas,

OUR WASHIXGIOV LETTER.
The Next Speaker—Will tiie
President’s Course elect Black
burn The Extra Session—
Fred Douglass—The Mexican
Invasion—Ere., etc.
Washington, D. C. May 14,1877.
Editor Calhoun 7tines ;
The President and members of his
Cabinet still receive telegrams and let
ters ouncerning the time of calling the
extra session of Congress, This advice
ornes from all parts of the couutrj,aod
is understood to be favorable to the
day already fixed, October 15th. As it
presumably comes only from friends of
the administration, it is not likely any
change will be made. Aside from mere
political damage to the Republican par
ty—if that “dissevered, discordant and
belligerent” organization can be furth
er damaged—the country will suffer ma
terially through lack of money to sup*
port legally its army, its navy and its
courts. The army'and navy may be
kept together, and the courts generally
may proceed with their business, but
what a commentary it is on a govern
ment “of the people, for the people and
by the people” that the Executive takes
the responsibility of carryiog on all
these branches of government illegally
and refuse to call together the people’s
representatives to provide means for
continuing courts, army and navy, le
gally 1 The President will hear from
those representatives whenever they
meet. Already there is reported rclia<-
bly an accession of strength to Repre
sentative Blackburn, of Kentucky, as a
candidate for Speaker, and a movement
like that means simply that the Demon
racy of the House will relentlessly pun
ish any violation of law that President
Hayes may be guilty of.
’Fred Douglass says the fight against
him is a fight against the Republican
party ; that if he is removed from of
fice by the President, the latter’s ene
mies within the party will be strength
ened and that the President cannot af
ford to lose any strength. Douglass is
right, but he may not have any better
success than other party leaden in
making Hayes see himself as other Re
publicans see him.
The following are given as leading
military men in the proposed fillibus*
tering expeditions against Mexico, with
which at one time it was expected the
government would be drawn into col
lusion : Gen. Joe Shelby, Missouri ;
Vaughan Thomas, of the old Walker
Nicaragua Expedition; “Gen'l” Frank
Armstrong, late of the Confederate
army. The U. S. Government will take
every precaution against the organization
of any forces on our soil for the inva
sion of Mexico. Assistant Secretary
of the State, Seward, referring to this
subject says: “The government will
not allow any armed expedition to leave
its soil to invade a country with which
we are at peace.”
One of our fifty or sixty Building
Associations, and apparently one of the
soundest, has just suffered a loss of over
$20,000 by the unfaithfulness of its
Secretary and Treasurer. It is found
that no law exists in this District by
which these officers can be proceeded
agaiust criminally. This is I believe
the fifth of these societies wbLh lave
thus suffered here, and it would seem
to he time that legislation should be so
shaped as to protect persons —generally
poor and industrious citizens—who
thus invest their savings.
Very respectfully yours,
Reno.

In range of work thin machie canrot be equalled. Will work equally well; U
or thin goods, from gauze to heaviest beaver coatings, or even leather, without change
of needle, tension or thread. We will warrant them to da this ! Our fine werk i equal
to zny. and our heavy work excels that of any other machine in the world.
The machine mikes the celebrated lock stitch (the stitch invented by Mr. Hoowe.) ’•
on both sides. The tensions are positivr both uppar and lower thread. The shuttle
tension is u on the thread as it leaves thhuttle, and not upon the bobbin, as in mosl
machines, and t.,is tension is invariable, whether the bobbin be full or nearly empty,
is obtained by turning a screw in the sbutt’e, and can be changed in a moment, withell
taking out the work, breaking the thread hreading through holes.
What we claim, in substance is, that thi is an iiokkst machine, au
family will do any and all of your work pel fectly, will last a lifetime, i *
