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.” The Attorney General, of Kentucky, las decided that all the Kentucky lot' tery grants have expired by limitation, and that no valid grant now exists in that State. This includes the Frank fort, Paducah, Henry Academy and Shelby College grants. The managers have appealed, with no expectations of success, however, but to gain time to wind up their busiuess. THE TIMES. The pay of a Russian Colonel is said to be only S4OO a year. The American Association for the Advancement of Science will hold its annual session this year in Nashville in August. Thursday, June 14, will be the one hundredth anniversary of the adoption of the Stars and Stripes as a national ensign. A subscription is being raised in Lexington, Ky., to bring home from Italy the remains of the late Joel T. Hart, sculptor. Mr. Layard, British Ambassador at Constantinople, was once captured by an Arab tribe in Mesopotamia, and made the Chief’s cook. A correspondent of the American Art Journal says that the girta of Cashmere make shawls worth 530,000, and will show 300 distinct colors or shades which we can not make or even distin guish. Adelaide Neilson received for four weeks, at the California Theatre, San Francisco, $17,500. It was the largest engagement ever played there, surpass ing Booth’s and the Florences’. A little boy was frightened to death in Astoria, 111., a few days ago. An other little boy, in a hideous costume, sprang upon him to scare him. He fell iu his fright prostrate. Scrambling a little further he fell again, a corpse. “Which side of the street do you live on, Mrs. Hippie?” asked a counsel cross-examining a witness. “On either side, sir. If you go one way, it’s on the right side ; if you go the other way, it’s on the left.” English people in humble life set their superiors in position an excellent example as regards simplicity in marri age. In Leeds, Der by and other places the artisans often work up to breakfast time, get married between breakfast and dimer, and after the last named meal go back to their labor for the rest of the day. A Connecticut woman who died re cently ( at the age of fifty-seven, had on ly fourteen birthdays. She was born on February 29th. Siuce the declaiation of war iu the East the price of opium has advanced nearly furty per cent. It is going to be a very hard summer on poor peo pte Alen have crossed the ocean iu very small boats, but nobody ever supposed a w<-marf would be foolish enough to try it. It is now announced that a man and his wife will set out in a thirteen foot boat, to sail from New Bedford to London soon. A French blacksmith filled a large tube with hammers, chisels, bus of lead, iron aod gunpowder, then put his head in one extremity, and applied a hot bar of iron to the other. The re su’t was that he knocked off his head and blew up his forge. 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. Mr. ,7 T Waterman, Editor La Grange Reporter. 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 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.
