818. STEPHENS’ ARRIVAL
HOME.
The Crawfordsville Democrat of Fri.
day says : “MrcStephens arrived home
yesterday on the eleven o’clock train
from Augusta. He was considerably
fatigued by travel, but considering the
long and severe spell of sickness he
passed through while in Washington
City last winter, he stood the trip re
markably well. He is apparentlv in
better condition than when he left home
last winter, and says he feels quite as
well as then, lie expressed great grat.
ification upon being able to meet and
‘ hake hands once more with the many
friends who met him at the depot 0.1
his arrival, and who called to see him
at Liberty Hall. His comfort was
greatly promoted on the trip from
Washington through the kindness of
President John P. King and Buperin
tendent S. K. Juhrson, of the Georgia
Railroad, who arranged with other
roads of the Atlantic Coast Line to
bring him through on sleepers, with
only one change of cars, which was at
WilmiDgton, N. 0.”

have appealed, with no expectations of
success, however, but to gain time to
wind up their busiuess.

OIR WASHINGTON LETTER.
Washington, D. C May 21,1877.
Editor Calhoun lime* :
The Capital of yesterday in an edi
torial of unusual moderation for that
paper considers the case of Secretary
Sherman. It advances the idea that
the Secretary’s recent order to the ef
fect that claims against the government
shall not be considered by the Treas
ury unless based upon a specific appro
priation by Congress is designed to give
him control over Southern members of
Congress, and enable him to control the
organization of the new House of Rep
resentatives. These claims grew out
of the war, and are chiefly held in the
South. They are legitimate claims,
represented by government promises to
pay, tmd have been acted on under all
Secretaries of the Treasury, from Chase
to Morrill. The amount is supposed to
be very large, and the refusal to pay
them will enalle the Department to re
port an increased reduction of the debt
from mouth to month, until some court
or commission is authorized by Con
gress to act upon them. If Sherman
can also use them as a meaos of cor„
rupfing Southern Congressmen as sug„
gested by the Capital, he will have a
double claim to the gratitude of the
P.esident, It is likely, however, that
the Capital over-estimates the influence
this action of the Secretary will have.
In a general way it don’t make much
difference to the people of the country
what becomes of the carpet-baggers
who have been driven from office in the
South. The days when they could
plunder a helpless State with imnunity
have passed, and in other positions, if
they receive them, they will be subject,
as other citizens are, to f he operations
of laws made for the protection of life
and property. Ihe United States Gov
ernment will no longer shield tham. —
But there is something to bo deplored
in the use the administration has pro
posed to make of two of them. It was
at one time determined by Hayes to
make G Wiley Wells Solicitor of the
Treasury, Wells formerly resided here
He was a clerk in one of the Depart
ments. He had no standing at the bar
of this District. Appointed by Grant
to an office in Mississippi, he acquired
in the corrupt politics of that State
whatever qualifications ho may now
have for the important and responsible
office President IJayes proposed to give
him. Owing to opposition to the ap
pointment, however, the name of Wells
was withdrawn. But that of Governor
Chamberlain, late of South Carolina,
now of New York, was substituted.—
Such a man for such a place. Better
known than Wells, there is that much
less reason for commenting on the ap
pointment. The people will make their
own comments. But Chamberlain re
fuses the office, and the President has
all the world of carpet-baggers to choose
from in his next offer.
While on this subject, I may say
that, as fa3t as rumors come here that
conservative men iu the South are
anxious for office under the administra
tion, such stories are inquired into
both by Democrats and Republicans,
with a view to ascertaining the stand
ing or influence of the applicant or his
followers or supporters, and the bearing
his appointment may have on political
affairs. Both sides keep themselves ac
curately informed.
The President has lately expressed a
belief that the delay in calling Con
gress together, will assist him iu secure
ing support, from the South, whenever
the Speaker of the House is to be
elected. Democrats, however, enter
tain nu fears on that point.
Yours truly, Reno.
Constitutional Convention.
JUDGE HIRAM WARNEIt’s VIEWS.
Gainesville, Ga., May 13, 1877. —
Dear Sir : lam in receipt of your
letter of the 10th instant, requesting
my views as to the necessity of holding
a Constitutional Convention. The only
sovereign which the people of this State
recognize, is their fundamental law as
embodied in their Constitution ; and
the moral power and force of its mane
dates, must necessarily depend up -n the
free will and voluntary consent of those
who are required to obey them. The
fundamental law by which the free peo
ple of a sovereign State are to be gov
erned. should not only be created and
adopted by their free and volun ary
consent but should also bo adapted
to their condition and circumstances.
What are the present condition and
circumstances of the people of the
State? At the olose of the war mil
lions of dollars of their capita! invest •'
in slave properly, which hod !;•
cumulated by the labor, indust u■ i
0 ormy of several generations, was*
suddenly destroyed and swept out of
existence. That property so suddenly
destroyed constituted almost the entire
capital upon which the credit of the
people was based. Alter the destruc
tion of their capital, invested iu slave
property to the amount of millions of
dollars, what did the people fiave left?
They had been plundered of their stock
and other property until nothing was
left but their worn-out land, and that
was greatly depreci ted in value in con
sequence of the destruction of thei
other property. Such was the condi
tion of th people when the present
Constitution of the State wag made for
them; and under its provisions aud
legislation authorized by it, the expen<
ses of the State Government were in
creased from twenty-five to fifty per
cent. 5 and up to this lime the General
Assembly has not shown any disposition
to reduce them, and judging the future
by the past, it will not do so under the
present Cons itutioo- The expenses of
a private family shouM be regulated ac
cording to its means and ability to pay
them ; the same principle is applicable
to the expenses of the State Govern
ment iu view of the condition of the
people.
The convention had better be called
now when the times are hard than in
more prosperous times, for the reason
that it will oe more apt to frame a (Jon
stitution adapted to the condition and
circumstances of the people. Theie
are many amendments and alterations
which in my judgment ought to be
made in the present Constitmion ; but
as I do not expect to have everything
as I might wish it to be, I am willing
to rrust the convention ta frame such a
Constitution as in their wisdom will
promote the present and futuie welfare
and prosperity of the people of the
State. To assume that the convention
will not do this would oe to sty that
the people of Georgia are not capable
of self-government. Let the conven
tion he called, and let the people see to
it that the best and most experienced
men are sent to it,
Very respectfully, your obedient ser
vant, Hiram Warner.

ENGLAND’S POSITION.
Her Particiiiallnn in the War
Predicted—The Czar Warned.
A staff correspondent of the New
York Bun telegraphs that paper from
London, under date of May 17, as
follows :
“The absorbing interest in Russian
operations is for the moment transfer
red to the diplomatic world Embold
ened by his triumph in Parliament and
certain of support from the uatinn, Dis
raeli is believed to be preparing topre*
cipitate England, joined by Austria,
into a conflict with Russia Diplomat
ic circles conless that England s partic
ipation is a foregone conclusion Ex
traordinary preparations in tilt arma
ment ul' both land aud naval forces are
reported in all parts <T the kingdom.
All home transports from distant colo
nies are under rders for troops. Great
fleets of troop ships are preparing.—
From all naval rendezvous prodigious
accumulations of naval and military
stores are en route to the Mediterranean
stations. Orders have been sent to In
dia to mobilize the Mussulman contin
gent. The tone of the majority of the
London and provincial press is outspo
ken for instant intervention upon al
most any pretext. War meisurea are
welcomed with enthusiasm among the
great body of merchants whose busiuess
is crippled by the blockade of the Black
Sea and the cessation of traffic with
that region, which iu Liverpool. Glas
gow and London more than equals
transatlantic operations. Besides this
various ranks of busiuess sustain heavy
losses, many suffering bankruptcy by
the capture, confiscation or dispersion
of their Asiatic branches. England’s
interests will oe the pretext, aud the
first Russian success of magnitude the
occasion for intervention That this
will be the eud the best informed men
in Parliament, the press, aud in public
life concur iu declaring. The war par
ty press clamor for instant protection of
England’s interests The Russian Am
bassador has gone home to warn the
Czar of the impending danger. Cou
riers follow him in rapid succession
with reports of the situation which are
too compromising to be intrusted to the
post or to the telegr iph.
“The slow advance t-f the Russian
army of the Danube is caused by a- .
plomatic rather than hy military cou- 1
siderations. The Czar is anxious to
hold Austria in check by the presence ;
on her frontier of half a million <>i 1
men. Should this army push too rap. I
idly acr ss the Danube and into the
Balkans, Austria be free to at
tack the Ru-si-in rear aud thus paral
yze the camnaign. la the Russian
camp, it is believed that England ami !
Austria are joined in a coalition to in- !
tervene so soou as decided Russian sue !
cesses shall endanger the former’s
Eastern and the latter's Danubian in
terests. The Russian speak of their
forces on the Danube as the army of
England, implying its use against Eng
land. Its commander is enjoined to
take no irretrievable siep forward unt'l
England and Austria shall have been di
plomatically neutraliz'd
“The .esult of the first three days’
debate on Gladstone's resolutions was
regarded by the Russians as a defeat
of Dlraeli and the War party. It was i
under that impression that the formid
able feints of last week were ordered
along the line and are now going on.— i
