Saturday, August 25, 1877. Senator Morton is lying dangerously ill at his home in Richmond, Indiana Tbo most gloomy reports come from the famine in India. Eighteen millions of’people have been affected by it, and out of that number half a million have died of starvation, and the scourge is growing steadily worse all the timo. Says the New lork Herald : ith the disappearance of the carpet-bag politician in the South the Unied States troops have nearly disappeared, there being only about twe'vo hundred there at present. Packard, Chamberlain and Ames could never have managed with*- out as many thousands. Tramps are getting troublesome in some of the Northern States. A day or two ago one of them entered a houso near Milford. Ind., in the absence of the husband, and threatening to shoot the wife if she gave alarm, searched the house from cellar to garret, and carried off a gold watch besides other valuable articles. The Mobile Register calls the Post master General a twisted Key. He speaks in his recent travels with the President in the North of his “erring Southern brethren.” Ilow rapidly a man twists over when he begins to twist! Key wore the uniform of a Confederate soldier, and was a Demo cratic Calhoun Secessionist. The convention, it is contemplated, will finish its labors by the close of this week, and the sovereigns will return to their peaceful abodes, and then will come the question as to whether the people will accept or reject the docu ment they frame. There is, needlessly, we believe, much dissatisfaction, so far, in regard to the workings of the body, and much unjust criticism has been heaped upon them. It is true they have been in session a long time, and their expenses have been quite heavy, but didn’t the people expect this ? To frame a Constitution, meeting the wants of the couintry, is, if closely considered, no inconsiderable task. We are ad- vised that fcke Constitution will boa good one, whie-h fact eyery voter will soon have the opportunity of testing, and we believe, all things considered, they have been no unreasonable time in preparing ic. Now let the people, laying ; side prejudice, when it is put b' fore them, consider well its recom make up their minds for or against, looking alone to the future welfare of the State. We commend most heartily some thoughts set forth by the Savannah News embodying at least one important patriotic reason why the document, if worthy, should be accepted. Suppose, says the News, the Constitution should be defeated, what would be the oourse of the Radi* cal press of tho country 1 Immediate ly a great hue and cry would bo raised that, after all the complaint in the South over carpet-bag and bayonet rule, the people of Georgia had, deliberate- ly, declared at the polls that the gov ernment which these carpet-baggers had given them was superior to the one which their own convention, composed of leading men of the State —men in every way identified with the inter* ests of Georgia, and comprising the best intellects of which she can boast— has framed. It cau be imagined how the Radical papers would gloa* over Buch a theme. Leader after leader would daily appear ringing the changes on the same tune, and a great triumph of carpet-bag over native wisdom would everywhere be proclaimed. The dam age to Georgia and the South general ly, if our Radical enemies should ever be permitted to enjoy such a victory, would be incalculable* The Buckeye has virtues which lie in the bitter principle called Ksculin, which have been utilized for the cure of Hemorrhoids, or Piles.

Editor Calhoun limes : Mr. Hayes and family, and the cabi net members in attendance, arc receive ing a hearty welcome in New England. Their visit, unfortunately, was not ex* tended to Maine, where, it I mistake not, the same cordial greeting would have met them. This would have con vinced Mr. Hayes, if ho needs such conviction, that his standing as a poli tician has little to do with his reception as a high official and a gentleman. In Maine it is safe to say that three-fourths of the Republican voteis are bitterly disappointed in the administration, but very few of them would have allowe this fact to interfere with their alter., lions to the distinguished visitor. n the South, when Mr. Hayes goes there, as he will no doubt do at an early day, there is lit le question but that the like cordiality *ill be shown him. It it gratify ing to all that Mr. Hayes has acted and spoken well during this journey on all occasions where he had anything to do or say. One amusing accidental remark probably occasioned a smile on the grim faces of his Radi cal hearers. At one of the places of stopping Mr. Hayes alluding to one of his ancestors who had tanied there, whose children had emigrated, said that “all the members of the Hayes family scattered.” Some of them do, as our Republican friends are realizing now. While Mr. Hayes is thus making personal friends in the East, his Secre tary of the Treasury has been making a political speech in Ohio. Whether it is proper for an immediate friend of tho President., and high officer under him to indicate to the people what is expected of them at the coming elec tion, and at the same time improper for a petty official to preside over a caucus in the backwoods of Nebraska or Maine, is a question that further experience in civil service reform will throw some light on. The affair looks to me like saving “reform” at the spigot and los ing it at the bung. The Chief Clerk of the Interior De partment is being investigated. He is not allowed to be present at the pro ceedings, or to introduce witnesses. I have no acquaintance with this Chief Clerk, but presume the service will not suffer if he is eliminated from it. Rut the Secretary should remember that all his prominent subordinates are suspect ed by the public, and to submit one of them to a secret investigation at the hands of three or four others is not, to speak within bounds, the most certain way to airive at the whole truth. It is said the first act of Mr. Ilayos when he returns from the North, will bo to bounce Hon. A. D. Cornell, of New York, who persists in holding both a lucrative Federal office and a place on the Republican National Com mittee. Possibly consideration for Sen ator Conkling, whose friend Mr. Cor nell is, msy induce Mr. Hayes to act slowly. Cornell may yet save himself perhaps, bv going into Ohio and stum ping tho State. Let him go to meet John Sherman. A gentleman is hero as a representa tive of the “Brotherhood of Locomo tive Engineers” for a large and impor tant portion of the country. He is not certain that a strike will not beoidered and if his report of the strength and discipline of the order is not exaggera ted a strike would practically suspend railroad travel from the Pacific to the Atlantic. Very truly yours, Reno. NEW ORLEANS. An Interesting Letter from this Important City. New Orleans, Aug. 16, 1877. Dear Times : My “locus scribendi” shows your readers that your corres pondent is many miles from the Ghte City whence emanated his last effusion. It may not be uninteiesting to tho pro gressive of your readers to know how one comes from Atlanta to this place. Well I will tell you how I came. I left the former city on last Sunday at 9 A. m., coming by way of West Point, Ga., Montgomery and Mobile, Ala., reach ing this city at 12 M. Monday. Be tween Montgomery and Mobile we strike what is known as the swamps or low lands, consisting ol sluggish creeks, marshy lands and mossy bayous. Ali gators are to be seen in great numbers. The lands aro too low for any of the cereals, hence only an occasional cotton or cane patch breaks the monotony of the ride. From Mobile to this city is one continual succession of lakes and bayous, the oars running for miles upon trestle work. Occasionally a very pretty watering place is passed, where we see many beautiful cottages. Just before reaching the city -*e passed an old fort where the U. S. flag was flying, and the mouths of many huge cannons dispute the passage of the largo arm of the sea that we cross there. Once here a stranger immediately realizes the fact that he is in a big city. Everything wears an air of commercial importance. The streets are narrow, hut well paved with a native river peb ble, while many beautiful parks are seen when nearing the suburbs. A stranger is at first struck with (he niun ber and magnificence of the churches that are seen here, still it must be re garded as an irreligious city, from the fact that cock-fighting, horse-racing and whisky drinking are among the most popular amusements on Sunday. Bar rooms and gambling dens arc kept open on the Sabbath, while the industrious Jew knows no Sunday. Among the other big things here I must mention ho tel bids and mosquitoes. The former will make a fellow’s pocket book look like it had the galloping consumption, while the latter are as large as bumble bees, and can crawl through the meshes cf a net that’s as fine as a cotton pocket handkerchief. I hope your readers won’t ask how the mosquitoes perform this seemingly impossible feat, for it’s the “skeeter’s business ” There are many magnificent public buildings here j among which I would mention the Custom house, State house, (formerly St. Louis Hotel.) Parish prison, University building, charity hospital and St. Charles Hotel The State house is located in a rather ob scure portion of the city known as the French quarter. And here I would state that a large per cent of the popu* lation are of French origin. That toDgue is freely spoken by a great many of the old citizens. Tho Spanish is al so heard in some quarters. I don’t see many negroes here. Those that I have noticed aro of tho regular old cotton patch kind, and are employed mostly on the wharf, loading and unloading vessels. The river here is covered with ship ping from all parts of the world. Be ing on the Mississippi river only 75 miles from the Gulf of Mexico, large ships find no difficulty in reaching the city. Large numbers of river steam ers are constantly arriving and depart* ing. The one attracting the most ata tention is the “Robert E. Lee,” the largest passenger steamboat that comes to this city. It’s as big as the Kim ball Houso in Atlanta, and looks like all the people in Gordon county might take a ride in it, (excuse me if I stretch tho blanket) Out in the middle of the river, immediately opposite the main landing is seen a U. S. tnan-of- War, of course ull your readers know what a man-of-war is ? This one looks like a huge turtle shell turned bottom upwards, lying half under water. The slick sheet-iron covering, it is said, will turn a cannon shot as slick as a bald head will trip up a fly. Business here is fearfully dull at this season, though merchants are clearing np for a big fall trade. Commerce as well as almost everything else was com pletely demoralized during the dark days of Radical rule, but since Democ racy has triumphed everybody is hope ful ! The management of everything is getting into the hands of white Dem ocrats, honco carpet-baggers arc pack ing up their little valises and turning their faces northward. May they never turn back this way is the hearty wish of every true patriot in poor down trodden Louisiana. This State it will be remembered has for many years been under the other end of the same yoke that has so long kept South Carolina down upon her knees. But thank God the bright sun of prosperity is again visible over the eastern hill-tops, and will soon bring the noonday of happi ness and success that once belonged to this glorious, noble people. Before I came here I wondered how Ilayes could consistently withdraw the troops and recognize th3 Nichols government, but that mystery has been explained to me. The people had been trampled upon till forbearance had ceased to be a virtue. They asked for war or their j"St rights. Hayes preferred to give them the latter. He found out that these people meant fight, and he was too glad to acocde to their demands.— Had Tilden and his Northern friends been made of Louisiana and South Car olina material tho White House would to-day be occupied by a Democratic President. But it’s poor policy “to cry over spilt milk,” so with a few random remarks I’ll close, promising you a few lines from Montgomery, on my trip homeward. The health of this city is splendid. Doetors complain of hard times, while druggists say they are starving. Some of the oldest citizens look for yellow fever this fall, and ore fleeing to the up country, but I see no necessity for alarm. There is an immense amount of destitution and suffering here. Beg gars aro as thick as I ever saw them in New York. Medicus. On meeting a friend ihe first inquiry is always regarding bis health. Why? Because health is of the first consider' ation ; yet many will sit in a cold, damp theatre, regardless of weak lungs and hacking cough.
