C. June 11,1877. Editor Calhoun 1 imez : A story has been industriously circu lated lately that the Presid' nt would soon appoint to prominent office—nota„ bly to one or more foreign missions of high grade—men of good standing in the I)em icra.ic party. He early claim ed that theso foreign offices shouid in a greater degree than others represent the person of the President. It is unnec essary to say that Democrats of ‘‘good standing” even if they would take office from Mr. Hayes at all, would hardly ac cept it with an understanding that they were to represent him instead of repre senting the United States. That he will tender these or other places to Dem ocra s soon, is common talk among men of both parties. Perhaps he still be lieves he can create a ‘‘new party” in this way, but if he is to be successful in that Democrat must come to his support faster than they are doing, to take the place of departing Republicans. The latest man of note who desires good results .rom the Southern policy of the admiirstration, but believes it a stu pendous mistake, is Senator Kirkwood, of lowa. If the sentiment of lowa can be judged by those of her citizens who come here, Senator Kirkwood is less se vere than his Republican fellow-citizens of the State. Conversing this morning with un inf diligent gentleman from Northern lowa, I was informed that if an issue could be fairly made up at this time, the old fashioned Republican of sixty thousand would bo completely lost, such, at least, was his belief and he is a Republican who is willing to give the policy a trial. As the Radical leaders, one after an* other, express their discontent, it is no ticeable that leading Democrats are ap parently happy. While Hayes is undoubtedly doing in some things good work for the country, his course is not less beneficial to tho Democracy as a party in dividing its enemrcs. Official despatches from Mexico rep* resent the internal affairs of tho Re public as in a mo3t critical condition, and the government of Diaz as bein" ready to fall to pieces. Whenever that shall happen, and the legitimate Presi* dent be restored to power, more inti mate treaty relations between our gov ernment and that would tend to strengthen the friends of order in Mex ico, and enable them to suppress bri gandage on the Rio Grande. If, in stead of adopting such a course as this, tho President shall persist in sending troops into Mexico, he will not only needlessly promote disorder there, but may involve us in* war. The irrepressible Parson Newman, of this ci f y, has just now a little of the notori' ty which is dear to his heart. — In undertaking to demolish the Gatho* lie church on a late Sabbath, as is a custom of his, be roused up an able opponent in Rev. Father White. Tho two d'vines are now proving each other garblers of Scripture, prevaricates and idiots. The Rev. Win. A. Cook, ad viser to the late administration, once offered to let his gold watch and six hundred dollars in money that he had mere “vital piety” than a brother who reflected unfavorably upon him. If the present combatants shouM arrange a wager of tjhis kind, and leave the question to be decided by any one who has read the attacks upon each other, the decision would be such as Morris sey made cu the late Presidential elec tion, the stakes would be retu ned on the ground that neither side had won. Washington scenery is just now at its best. The wide uud clean streets, the reservations, uaany and well kept, the great spaces between the houses, and the traveled portions of the streets, united with lovely weather, make the city beautiful. At this season I know of no finer drive or stroll any whore than can be fonnd in Washington. Very truly yours, Reno. FROM! OUR “CUTE CITY” COR RESPONDENT. Some Reminiscences for the Cal honn “Boys.” Atlanta, June 11, 1877. Dear limes : It is more than a year since I have attempted to write anything for your columns, hence I fear that I will be a stranger to many of your readers. Dur ing this loDg silence rest assured you have not been out of my mind ; other duties have occupied my time depriving me of the pleasure of even an occa sional talk through your columns with my old time friends in Gordon. I now return like the Prodigal of old promise ing to be more faithful as a “Gate City correspondent” in future than I have been in Many of your read ers are friends of “days lang syne,” therefore I like your columns quite as much as the place whence you emanate. Calhoun is a dear old town to me, for Twas there I first launched my boat, frail craft that it was, upon the great sea of life. ’Twas there I first learned to sleep at midday on the soft side of a druggist’s counter, and roll pills and mix potions for the stomachs of my fel low creatures. There I first learned the use of bear’s oil and cinnamon drops, and to part my hair in the middle with such accuracy as would put to shame the civil engineer armed with square and compass. There I joined the “Skimmer horns” at the dead hoar of midnight, and swore by the grinning teeth of a skeleton never to tell that Uncle E. J. K. was President and grand cyclops of the order. (I’ve never told). I won’t tell here how I was initiated. The secret is sealed in my innocent bo som. ’Twas in that same old town I learned the art of attaching the indi spensable oyster can to the candal ap pendageo f the unsuspecting canine, at that hour when grave yards give up their dead for the time being that they may go forth to terrify evil doers, in company with good old Mose F., Har rison F. and Uncle E. J. K. I have actually seen a poor, innocent calf go to the Court House yard and tie its own tail to the bell rope and call from their peaceful sltmbers the city fathers.— Capt. Joe McC. who always attended lodge-meeting on those nights will tes tify to the truthfulness of these state* ments. The town Marshal had stepped around the corner to see a man. In those days that little town contained more real live, big-hearted boys than any other of its size in Upper Georgia. A majority of them have committed matrimony, hence the family circle is broken. I alone sit in the lap of celibacy, a self-made victim to that re morseless fiend. Still hopeful I look forward with bright anticipations not withstanding the fact that i am grow ing rather ancient. Time, so far, has dealt kindly with me, but from obser vation I think that “impartial conquer or” grows less merciful as he gets a stronger hold on a fellow, as I think I will make an effort to free myself at an early day. I have not been trying to write any thing for newspapers recently, oonse. quently I hardly know what would be of particular interest to your readers now. If in this, or any other letter. I should brag on Atlanta, please attribute the fault—if fault it be—to no dispo sition whatever to magnify things or to advertise our live city, for it is simply the workings of a disease that every man living here suffers from. We can’t help praising our idol. An Atlanta man had rather go without bis whisky than be deprived of this blessed privU lege. A man who has not walked over our city since my last letter would wan der around here a stranger now. The sun has been shut out by huge blocks of business houses from places which she has gazed upon for the last fifty years. Brick and mortar have been at a premium, and we have as a result a city that should be the pride and glory of every true Georgian. We have so many things to brag on that I hardly know where to begin. We have more churches and bigger ones than any other city in Georgia, all of which are well attended. We have as many bar rooms as any two cities in the State.— Our public school system is unsurpass ed in this country, while the dozen or more first class newspapers, periodicals, literary and scientific journals attest our fondness for culture and refinement. We have as big cotton factory as I ever saw, (it’s the only one I’ve seen), and as many niggers, loafers, dogs, thieves and politicians as any first-class city needs. Recently we have had a lithow graphing establishment put into opera.* lion that can do as fine work as any similar conoorn in this country, but I can’t enumerate a tithe of our big things in a short letter like ibis. I hope your readers will come dowu and take a good look at us on the 4th of July, when we expeot to have a big day—a real old time jollification. We expect our oouutry 00 twins from every corner of the State. ludeed large sup plies ot ginger cakes, eider and “aody” water have been ordered to make our city doubly attractive on that day.— Fully a half million of people will be here then hollowing “hurrah for out glorious free nigger country I” We have extra hats, with bricks in them, prepared to toss high up on that occa' sion. Sam Small has ordered a pair of new blue glasses for the day —whotn* er to look through or drink from I shan’t attempt to say. Thornton will also eat fifty full grown chickens and make a two hours’ speech on the “at trac‘ableness of gravity,” at 12 M. that same day. Tell everybody to come and let’s have a good time. Let the wood en nutmeg and the true scent of Afri ca’s dime go up together. Before these lines reach your readers Atlanta will have voted overwhelming ly for a Con. Con. Ben Hill—our Ben —made a speeeh to a large crowd at the Capitol Saturday night, and told the citizens to vote for a convention, and we’ll do just what he says. Then our jolly bar-keepers, enterprising ho tel men, boot blacks and grouod pea venders have said in one voice that we must have a convention as business in their respective lines is awful dull.— Nothing like trade even if it does come from Potipher Peagreen. One soup maker —freelunchman—told me he had made a standing order for ten sheeps’ heads per day to iurnish brain food for our over-worked law-makers during their stay with us as members of the Con. Con. Nothing like prompt at*. tention to pathological changes that are always brought about by over work of any kiud. But this letter has already spun it self into a long yarn, so I will cut it short by promising to write you again at au early day. Will make prompt ness in fucure atone for past neglu gence.

Under its new management, the Atlanta Constitution has won for itself the tide of the leading journal of the South. Its en-' terprise, during the resent election excite ment, ia sending correspondents to differ ent portions of the country, and its series of special telegrams from Washington while the electoral commission was engaged in consummating the fraud that placed Radi. cJism once more in power in our national councils are evidences conspicuous enough to prove that no expense will be spared to make the Constitution not only a leader in the discussion of matters of public concern, but a leader in the dissemination of the la test and most reliable news. There is no better time than now to subscribe for A Fresh and Vigorous Newspaper. Albeit, there has been a quasi settlement of one of the most difficult and dangerous problems of modern federal politics, the discussions springing therefrom and the re suits likely to ensue have lost nothing of their absorbing interest. In addition to this, the people of Georgia are now called upon to settle The Convention Question. and in the discussion of this important sub ject (in which the Constitution will take a leading part) every Georgian is interested. If a convention is called its proceedings will find thoir earliest and fullest embodi ment in the columns of the Constitution, and this fact alone will make the paper in dispensable to every citizen of the State.— To be brief, The Atlanta Daily Constitution. will eudeavor, by all the means that the pro gress of modern journalism has made pos sible and necessary to hold its place as a leader of Southern opinion and as a purvey or of the latest news.
