THE CONVENTION AND THE
HOMESTEAD.
The committee on Final Revision

OUR HASIIINGTOX LETTER.
Washington, D. C. Aug. 6,1877.
Editor Calhoun Times :
Bonn Piatt, in the Capital of yestoiv
day, nominates Mr. Hayes for the Pres
idency in 1880, and promises that
“brave patriot” an election. This is
the same versatile Piatt who, just prior
to March 4th counseled the assassina
tion of this same “brave patriot.” What
moth and miildew scheme of plunder is
concealed in this summersault ? We
shall soon know, probably. In a few
days the citizens of Virginia will nom
inate the man who is to be their next
Governor. The convention will be
large ad very able. The two questions
which appear to perplex the many can
didates are to the finances of the State
and the public schools. Every friend
of the noble old State whom I have
met expresses a hope that she will nom
inate a man who is known to favor the
payment of her debt to the last farth
ing. Once make it certain that the
debt, however large, will be paid, and
favorable terms of payment will readily
be made.
The Maine Republican State Conven
tion, which is the next political event
of importance, will have a great influ
ence on the fortunes of the party, and
a decisive one on these of B.aine. If
Bkiine was a less ablo and adroit poli
tician, I should say that he would al
most certainly give to other Republi
cans of the State, long restive under
his supreme control, an opportunity to
overthrow him. But nothing can be
foretold with certainty concerning a
party so utterly demoralized as the Re.
publican has become under his admin
istration.
Moody, the Evangelist, will divide
his next campaign between this city
and Baltimore. What portion will be
given to each is not determined. The
clergy of both cities, except those of
the Catholic and Episcopal churches,
united in the request for the visit and
will assist in the anticipated revivals.
Washington has an exceedingly moral
white population, but for some reason
the churches are never full. Perhaps
this is because the wide and clean and
breezy streets, the many parks and the
fountains render outdoor life so delight
ful here that few care to exchange it
for the confinement connected with or
dinary religious exercises.
Ou Saturday night an insane man
was arrested, while smashing the plate
glass windows of the Republican of
fice. lie did §SOO worth of damage,
fie claims that the concern owes him
about that amount for editorii.l services.
Any attentive readers of that paper will
understand how just this claim proba
bly is.
The grounds around the Capitol are
not in excellent condition and cannot
be mado so this season. There seems
to be a general belief among those in
authority that further purchases of land
will be made to be added to the present
grounds, and the completion of improve
ments already decided on is de
layed on that account. It is true
that the building is too large or the
surrounding space too small, but this
seems to be no good reason for neglect
ing what is already secured. Congress
whether it comes in October or Decern*
ber, will uot fiud its surroundings pleas
ant.
As Gen. Howard no longer makes
bulletin boards of the daily papers for
the announcement of victories over the
Indians, it is fair to assume that he is
not winning victories. lie and his ac
complished aids have not been slow in
reporting any successes, however trivial,
and many have believed th<t a little of
exaggeration came with the jubilant
proclamations of success, The latest
dispatches, apparently reliable, are to
the effect that Chief Joseph, as soon as
he puts his squaws, children and stock
in a safe place, is going to hunt up
Gen. Howard and fight him.
Very truly yours,
Reno.
I UO.II OUR *‘G.iTE CITY” COR
reneondent.
Atlanta, Ga„ August 3, 1877.
Dear T'mcs; To say it has been
warm for tiio last ten days in tho city
but feebly expresses the oppressive tem
perature under which we are existing,
and therefore to make myself more
pheit and at the same time emphatic,
you must not challenge my veracity
w hen I tell you it’s hat. Hence, as
your correspondent kicks the innocent
beam at 210 avoirdupois, your rea'ders
will purely pardon him for any short
comings in this hastily written letter.
The modern Falsiaff who keeps on livs
iDg and doing, between our present tem
perature and the festive mosquito is as
unhappy ns the average young man who
feeds on byron and sips the honey-dew
of love. I dwell more at length on the
weather perhaps than T ought, and of*
fer as a i apology the fact that when I j
was a Calhounite and visited the fair
sex, I always exhausted the subject of
the weather at the outset to give my
brain time to act and find other sub
jects. And here l would add, rather
parenthetically, of course, that I have
actually heard my old friend, J. M. R ,
ask a young lady if she thought it
would rain during the evening when
not a single cloud was visible. But
then you know, that kind of chat aL
ways gave Jim. time to think up “more
soap.” And Ido believe I’ve seen
that same young man when he would
have paid ten dollars for a five cent bar
of that indispensable article. Mose F.
will vouch for the truthfulness of the
statement, as he would have willingly
gone half the expense for a small share
in that same soap. But I must not
write anything -More pf these innocent
youths at this late hour of the night;
for at this very moment Jim. is no
doubt sweetly sleeping ’mid the quiet
shades of Craneator, disturbed by no
sound save the music of tho katy did,
and dreaming of the nickles he will
grasp from the hands of his clever coun
trymen on the moirow, while Moses !
Oh, where is he ? Not among the bull
rushes as of old, but echo tells me he
i3 at this very moment cracking his
toes over tho harmless rocking chair,
while a little Moses, with closed eyes
and open lips, cries lustily for the sooth
ing paregoric or a draft of Mrs. Juice
low’s Winsling syrup. Such is life.
In my case the lively mosquito takes
the place of the whilo the
shriek of the restless locomotive makes
my soul go out in sympathy for Moses.
Joe McC. knows how. to soothe the
babe to rest, so my married friends can
find an actual remedy near home. Good
bye, boys, “may you live long and be
happy.”
Now I expect your readers think I
ought to write something about the
convention, but if there is anything on
earth or in Atlanta I know nothin"
r
about it’s what modern nomenclatuio
has styled “Our Constitutional Conven
tion.” I went and took a look at the
august body a few days ago, but my
eyes soon failed me. Looking at those
bald heads was like facing the reflec
tion of a noonday sun from anew tin
roof. No fly could exist for a minute
on one of those heads. The members
certainly ought to be wise and good, for
theie is no hair to prevent the escape
of well matured ideas from those mas a
sive heads, and only a single roof is
'twixt them and the skies. Candidly
4 never saw as many bald heads in one
room in my life. I think some of the
younger members certainly have their
youthful craniums manipulated by the
barber, as they are all bald. Another
thing I observed while viewing our
law-makers was that a majority of them
were unmarried, at least, I judged so
from the fact that they watched the
pretty young ladies in the galleries
more than they did the President of the
body. Hotels, barber shops, baekmcn,
peanut venders, boot blacks and others,
who look to our transient friends for
patronage, are not getting rich fiom
the convention. Cheap boarding houses
are ruining hotels, while no barber can
find hair enough on the head of the
averago conventionist to entitle him to
more than one-third tho amount of the
usual fee.
I suppose your readers are aware of
the fact that the subject cf locating our
Capitol is attracting an immense amount
of attention just now. A powerful ef
fort is being made by our enemies to
carry the seat of iState government
away from here ; arguing (among many
other things,) that the public build
ings at iMilledgoville will be rendered
perfectly useless if the Capitol is al°
lowed to remain here, and that the State
cannot stand such a serious loss. At
lanta has, however, come forward in
her usual liberality and proposed to
build anew Capitol here equal to, if
not superior to the old one. Even if I
was not a resident of this city I would
be in favor of accepting this proposi
tion. If the change is made the Gov
ernor’s Mansion would be lost by the
State. So taking all things into con
sideration —Atlanta’s importance as a
commercial centre, her railroad fucilio
ties, her geographical advantages, etc., —
I don’t think our law-makers should
think of car-viog the Capitol elsewhere.
Every true Georgiau should be proud
of Atlanta, as she is the pride of our
whole Southern country. Her enemies
defile her while her citizens and friends
are loud in her praise,
I would like to write you something
about our approaching State Fair, but
must defer that important subject to my
next letter, as the night is far spent,
and this is perhaps already too long.—
With many kind wishes,
1 remain,
Yours tpi^ly,
M edicus.

Ayer’s Cathartic Pills,

Eruptions and Skin Diseases, Bil

Neuralgia, as a Dinner Pill,
for Purifying the Blood,
a Are the most ef
fective and conge
nial purgative ever
discovered. They
are mild, but ef
fectual in their
operation, moving
Although gentle
they are still the
most thorough and
tic medicine that can be employed: cleans
ing the stomach and bowels, and even the
blood. In small doses of one pill a day,
they stimulate the digestive organs and
promote vigorous health.
Ayer’s Pills have been known for
more than a quarter of a century, and have
obtained a world-wide reputation for their
virtues. They correct diseased action in
the several assimilative organs of the
body, and are so composed mat obstruc
tions within their range can rarely with
stand or evade them. Not only do they
cure the every-day complaints of every
body, but also formidable and dangerous
diseases that have baffled the best of
human skill. While they produce power
ful effects, they are, at the same time, the
safest and best physic for children. By
their aperient action they gripe much less
than the common purgatives, and never
give pain when the bowels are not inflamed.
They reach the vital fountains of the blood,
and strengthen the system by freeing it
from the elements of weakness.
Adapted to all ages and conditions in
all climates, containing neither calomel
nor any deleterious drug, these Pills may
be taken with safety by anybody. Their
sugar-coating preserves them ever fresh,
and makes them pleasant to take; while
being purely vegetable, no harm can arise
from their use in any quantity.
