CALHOUN TIMES I I>. B. FREEMAN, Edit^ laws Relating to Newspaper Subscrip lions ami Arrearages. 1 Subscribers who do not give express notice to th* contrary, are considered wishing io con - i Unite their subscription. 2. If subscribers order the discontinuance oj ] th 'ir periodicals,, (he publishers mug continue | to send them until all arrearages are paid. 8. If subscribers neglect or refuse, to take their peri<• Heals from the. office to which they are di rected, they arc held responsible until they hare, settled their bills and ordered them discontin ued. 4. If subscribers move to other places without notifying publishers, and the papers are sent to the former direction, they arc held responsi ble. b. The Carets have, decided that “ refusing to take periodical': from the. office, or removing arid leaving them uncalled for, is prima facie elide ewe ef intentional fraud.'” 6. Any person who receives a newspaper and j m decs use of it whether he has ordered it or not, is held in hue to be a subscriber. I. If subscribers pay in advance, (hey are bound to give notice to the publisher, at the end of their time, if they do not wish to continue talc ing it; otherwise the publisher is authorized to send it on, and the subscribers will be respon sible until an express notice, with payment of all arrearageis sent to the publisher. AVi'.DXKSDAY, MARCH 8, ,00(5. The latest date fixed for the end of the world is the 17th of September next. The New Hampshire temperance re Oval is assuming vast proportions.— Twelve thousand persons Have signed the pledge since the movement began. “ What a fortunate thing to bo an editor,” eays a Somerville, Tenn., paper. “ Wc have just been presented with a Hzzrd with two t ills.” Virginia complains that s' ehas had to pay § 100,000 fur an eighty-day ses sion of her Legislature when one good lavyer for 81,000 would have prepared more and better laws in a week. A young Savannahian, who has been married something over a year, says he has just learned what “home circle” means. It is walking around the bed room in his robe do nuit with a young baby suffering from colic and testing its tender lungs. A North Carolina negro thought he could outrun a locomotive the other day on the Air Line road, and when he picked himself up, after being thrown twenty feet and landing on his head, he said : •• \or don’t ketch dis yer chile do?n dat agin. It’s a right smart won'' der I didn't tear dose britches clean off.” I’ I’VE States have abolished the dea h pen aty lowa, Wisconsin, Michigan, Connecticut and Maine. lowa is about to restore the gallows, having found the immunity enjoyed by murderers to no f alto a large and constantly increas iug portion of her population. The other four will repeal their life onment statutes in the course of the next five years. A gentli man on a visit to Wash ington very coolly opened tee Senate chamber (Do", and was about to pass in when the doorkeeper asked : ‘‘Are you a privileged member ?’•* “What do you mean L>y that { asked the stranger The reply was, “ A governor, an ex member of Congress ora foreign min ister.' The stranger replied that he was a minister. “ From what court or country ?” asked the official. Very gt jvcly pointing up, he exclaimed “from heaven, sir.” To this the doorkeeper bluntly replied : “ Nothing to do with this place. Go avrav.” County Papers. We find in one of our exchanges the following truthful observation con-- corning county papers, and the du ty of giving them a wholesome sup port: . J * IG J° cr *i paper is an absolute neccs** Sity to tno county and community where it is published. All the city pipers ca mot supply the place of the home pas }hi. i hat should be the first love of! every man and woman, for wdth the pa- ! per the locality is idcuiflrd. The pa per gives the town and county where printed much of their importance in the world; and gives in detail the local! news , which cannot be gained bv any ! other source. Every day’s issue‘of the | paper is so much local history and the I iise, giowib and development of the I t G\n and county can be measured and i recorded only by' the local newspaper Giat is constantly gathering it ms J o'iple do not properly appreciate their home newspaper by the number of col u,n s it contains. r J he home paper ; t any price is the cheapest paper one can take, fur in it is found the informal u 1,1 t 0 obtained from no other source hat the South has Done.— The I o iLviile Courier Journal reve ls the Sul ( iug fact that since the inaugura tion oi the national government there has been spent --bout one hundred and n u miili ;n dollars cf public money on public improvements in the Northern routes, while the expenditures in the "mli have not exceeded seventeen mil ion dollars. It adds that this is more surpu-ing when we remember that the bout hern States have at all times, 'ex cep ting during the war, furnished one .'! ' fMe-fourths of the exchange with which we have paid our foreign mrnts, and that in default of southern nrudnetions, the supply of gold and siL ‘ u 0 10 adequate to pay the an lieu, interest charged on the national U. bt, ami toe government of the United mates would have inevitably dishonored Ufa loreign obligations. Congressional. ’Washington. —March 2.-—ln the Senate, West presented the joint reso lutious of the Louisiana Legislature relative to stocking the waters of that State with fish. Referred to the Com mitte on Agriculture. The llouso Committee on Appropria tions reported a bill appropriating §103,000 for the Bureau of Printing and Engraving, and directed the Sec retary of the Treasury to issue silver coin in exchange lor lractional currency, whether now in the Treasury or present ed for redemption. The Committee on Ways and Means will have permission lo off r an amendment extending the limit of silver as legal tender. Randall gave notice that ho would cad up the bill as soon as practicable, and moved its recommittal. Carried. The House Appropriation Commit tee agreed to recommend that the bee rotary of the Treasury be directed to issue twelve millions of dollars and re deem Ue fractional currency. The Senate bill appropriating a thou s nd dollars to convey the remains of E. Ramsey Wing from Quito to Ken tucky passed and goes to the Presi dent. The Pinchbeck case was resumed.— Edmunds, not being well, hoped the benate would allow the matter would go over. Moitou understood that several Senators would be absent to-morrow. 11’ so, he would ask that the matter go over till their return. Laid over. The bill pensioning the widow of General Lorenzo Thomas passed. The bill reducing the number and in creasing the efficiency of the medical corps of the army passed. The Committee on Commerce report ed adversely on the bill making Chat, tanooga a port of delivery. The bill allowing New Mexico to form a State Constitution was made the special order for Wednesday. A num ber of private bills passed. The Senate Post Office Committee heard Geurge Jones, of the New York Times, it, op osition to a change in the present newspaper postage as mailed from the publication office. Washington, March 3.—Tn the House, the Judiciary Committee have permission to print the Emma Mine tes timony. Clymer, of Pennsylvania, chairman of the committee, made the fallowing report : In obedience to the order of the House, we proceed to the bar of the Senate, and iti the name of this IIous; and of ail the people ot the 1 nited States of America, vve im peached, as we were directed to do, Wm. W. Belknap, late Secretary ot War of (he United States, of high crimes and misdemeanors while in office, and n demand that the Senate shall take cider to make him appear before that body ta answer for the same, and announced that the House would soon present articles of impeachment and make them good, to which the response was made : “Oruer shall be taken.” The telegrams, orders and correspon dence relating to the military court of inquiry in the Babcock case are ordered to be printed. The political disabilities of Wm. L. Maury arc removed. In the Senate, the following bills were introduced : By Hamlin Fixing (ho rate of third-class mail matter and for other purposes. By Robertson—To restore the frank ing privelege. Morton reported, and gave notice that he would call it up at an early day, a bill for counting the vote lor President and Vice Presiden'. Maxey presented a memorial of the Choctaw, Seminole and other Indians, remonstrating against the organization of the territory occupied by them into a territory of the United Slates. Resolutions appropriating §15,000 from the contingent fund ot the Sen ate for the Spencer investigation were adopted. Tlie Pinchback case was resumed.— Edmonds spoke in oppos.t.on, Morton replying said, that from the beginning, this question had neeii governed by po litical consideratitions, and he proposed, before t e case was concluded, to speak of one of its political aspects aud couse queuces, and he would do so fearlessly. Frelinghuyscn spoke in favor of Pinchback. Biuce, of Mississippi, colored, spoke in favor of seating Pinchback. He saiu when he entered upon the dis charge of his duties with the Senate, the question had already been elaboiu'e ly discussed and i was not necessary for him to make any extended remarks.— Ho believed that whatever seeming ir regularities might be attached to the manner in which the will of the people in Louisiana was ascertained, Pinchback had a majority of the legal votes, and was entitled to hi, seat in the Senate. If ihe Senate should re luso to admit Pinchback, it would be an admission that the Legislature which looted him, and whi h had been ma king laws for the people, was a mob.— Louisiana was entitled to a full repre* soutation on this floor, and the Senate could not ignore its obligations to give to that Stu e a lull representation.— Whatever wrongs had been done in Louisiana, the present order of things in that State had been accepted by the nation and by the people of tha" State. He thought Pinchback should be ad-' milted in the interest of good will and good government lie then spoke of the personal qualities of Pinchback, aud said he knew him to be an affec tionate husband, and, as a citizen, loyal and bravo. r j he lull wing named Senators were appointed as the Select Committee to consider the resolutions of the House in regard ih the impeachment of Wm. W. Belknap, late Secretary of War : Messis Edmonds, of ermonfc, Conk ling, of New York, Frelinghuyson, of New Jersey, Thurman, of Ohio, and Stevenson, of Kentucky. Oi;3 Papers. The Macon Telegraph has this : Speaking of old papers, a friend has left with us a copy of the Ulster Coun 'ty (l a.) Gazette, published by Samuel Eimr & Son., and dated Saturday, Jan uary, 4, 1800. This copy is in mourn ing on account of the death of George Washington on the 14th of December previous, and contains a report of his obsequiesrr dated George Town Dec’r 20, under the startling head of “Washings ton Entombed !” In another part of the paper is a re. port of some of the ancient ceremonials attending the opening of Congress at lh t time. Both the House and Senate waited upon the President at h's house, to “present him their addresses in an swer *o his speech at the opening of the session, and recerving his written reply returned to their chambers and opened and read it.” To judge from the report, this formality was observed by each house, independently, and each present ed its own address aud received its apz. propriate reply. The foreign news of the Gazette is nearly throe months old, and reports the battle of Zurich, October 20th, the evacuation of Holland, and the return of Napoleou and Berthier t; Paris from Egypt. Among its adverticements is one pro posing to sell half a saw mill, and “a stout, healthy, active negro wench.” — The honest Pennsylvanians, in those days, did nut steal negroes by fraud or force. — Address of the National Demo cratic Committee. Washington, Febuary 22,--The National Democratic Committee, to whom is delegated the power of fixing the time and place of holding the Na tional Democratic Convention of 1876 have appointed Tuesday, the 27th day of June next, at noon as the time, and selected St. Louis as the place of hold iug such convention. Each State will be entitled to a representation equal to double the number of its Senator, and Representative iu Congress of the Uni ted States ; and the Territory of Colora do, whose admission in July as a State will give it a vote in the next electoral college, is also invited to scud delegates to the convention. Democratic, Con servative and other citizens of the Uni ted States, irrespective of past political associations, desiring to co-operate with the Democratic party iu its present ef forts aud objects, are cordially invited to join in sending delegates to the Na tional Convention. Cos operation is de sired from all persons who would change an administration that has sufi'eied the public credit to become and remain in a f'erior to other and less favored nat ions; has permitted commerce to be taken away by foreign p wers ; has stifled trade by unjust, unequal, and perui cious legislation ; has imposed unusual taxation and rendered it most burthen some ; has changed growing prosperity to widespread suffering and want ; has squandered the public moneys reckless/ ly and drfiantly, and shamelessly used the power that should have been swift to punish crime to protect it. For these and other reasons the National Demo cratic party deem the public danger im minent and are earnestly desinous of securing to our country the blessing of an economical, pure and free govern ment and cordially invite the co operation of the feiluW'citizeus in the effort to attain this object.

The beauty of the resumption act is elegantly illustrated by the special report of the Secretary of the Treasury, in obedience to a resolution of the House relative to the prepara ion for resuript ion. Bunds of the government have been sol 4 bearing five per cent, interest included, to the sum of §15,735 855. The amount of silver bullion purchased to December, 1875, cost, in gold, $9,- 300,446, all of which is to be coined into small change to redeem our fraction al currency. W hat sort of financiering is this that th * great Republic n party is doing for us. They have added to our bonded debt §15,000,000, and they have increased the interest which we have to pay anually §750,000 in gold.— Is the silver change worth that much more per annum to the people of the United States than the 'ractional cur roncy ? Hit is. worth any more, it will be hid away and hoarded, and never be used as currency. Whenever the gov ernment-stops depreciating the green backs and makes them worth more than silver by making the greenbacks receiv able for ail dues, public as well as pri vate, then the iast dollar of silver money in this country will be forced into circu.ation. It will come pouring in upon us from other countries, where it is being demonetized, to be recoiued here and put in circulation. The Treasurer will nut then have to sel. five per cent, bonds for gold in order to buy silver. He can get all lie wishes at par for greenbacks. —Nashville American. Hew gksUwtisemcufisi.

WITH ATTACHMENTS Lor All Kinds of Work, . is f st winning favor in the household, as shown by the rapidly increasing sales. Tais New Family Machine is capa ble of a range and variety of work such as was once thought impossible to perform by machinery. We claim and can show that it is the cheapest, most beautiful, delicately arranged, nicely a ij listed, easily operated, and smoothly running of all the family sewing machines. It is remarkable, not only for the range and variety of its sew ing, but also for tlie variety and different kinds of texture whicn it will sew with equrl facility and perfection,- using silk twist, linen, ov cotton thread, fineor Coarse, making the inter elastic lock stitch, alike on both sides of the fabric sewn. Thus, beaver cloth, or leather, may be sewn with great strength ami uniformity of stitch , and, in a moment* this willing and never wearying inst ilment may be adjusted for fine work on gauze or gossamer tissue, or the tucking of tarlatan, or ruffling, or al most any other work which delicate fingers have he'n known to perform. Ours having long been tjie popular and practical machines for manufacturing pur poses, some dealers, using ‘-tlie tricks of trade,” take advantage of this in trying to persuade purchasers that our Family Ma chine is not equal, for family sewing to our Manufacturing Machines for manufacturing purposes. But purchasers—and they are apt to examine carefully before choosing have not been merely persuaded, but con vinced that our new family *- achine embod ies new and essential principles — simplicity of construction ; ease of operation ; uni formity cf precise action at any speed; ca pacity for range and variety of work, fine or coarse-leaving all rivals be ind it. Sewing Machine Sales 0f1874. Ihe tabic of sewing machine sales for 1874 show that out sales for that year amounted to 211,697 machines, being a hug' increase over the sales of the previ ous year. The. table shows that our sal ch exceed those of any other company for the period named, by the number of 148,812 machines, nearly Three Tim.es Those of any other Com pany. It may Vm further stated that the sah's of 1873. :ig compared with the sale of 1872, show a relatively luge inerens beyond the sales ot other makers. For instutmn in 18>72 wc sold 45,000 more machines than ! nny other company ; whereas, in 1373, the j sales were 118,251 Machines in Excess cf Our Highest Competitor. And in 1974 our sales were I 2 Mncriities More Time Air O her Company. OFFICIAL REPORT. The following is a correct repaid of the sales ot sewing machines made by the lead ing companies duiing the past four years. A careful examination of the figures will slu.'v taat the “ SINGER” have largely in creased each year, while, on the contrary, a corresponding decrease is shown in the sales reported by all other companies.
