Johnston's Station, Ga July 11.—Editor Mommy Fetes The good people of thU sec tion, though not often heard from through your columns, manage to keep pica with the general march of improvement, ani still cher ish much of that spirit of chivalric benevo lence and social refinement which character ized their predecessors In the olden time. Friday, the Bth inst., was the day chosen to have an exuberant flow of the “spirit of 1778,” the real "4th” coming immediately after the Sabbath, and precluding the making of neces sary arrangements. At the appointed hour, the Liberty Guards, who were the invited guests of the occasion, appeared on the grounds at Jones Creek Church, with full ranks, hand somely uniformed and elegantly mounted, and commanded by Captain Wm. Hughes, who led them gallantly all through the late war. A cordial welcome was extended to the compa ny by Mr.D. W. Folsom, acting as Marshal of the day, in behalf of the vast number of citi zens present, wrhich was responded to by Cap tain Hughes in a chaste and patriotic address in behalf of the company. The assembly then repaired to the parade ground to witness the drill, which proved one of the most interesting features of the programme The ranks we e augmented by the accession of several n-w members, and this company is fast becom ng one of tbe liveliest institutions in our county. The heat was exceedingly oppr* ssive. tut the interest with will h the vast crowd watched the movements of the gallant Guards remained unabated by its in- lting influence*. Each sweltering swain, with all the chivalric ardor *f the knights of old, by frantic tfforts with fan and umbrella, contrived to prevent llie final dissolution of the “little lump o' sweet ness” th it moved by his side. But the man who sells starch and lily white will hear of something to his advantage when he calls around. After witnessing the exercises in the manual of arms, the audience was agreeably enter tained by addresses from Professor C. J. Hughes and Dr. H. L. Whatley, followed by an eloquent and practical speech by John E Sheppard, Esq who rore In response to re peated calls by the audi-cce. The dinner was a grand affair, unsurpasse i even by the former efforts of these whole souled an# hospitable peop'e. Unlike the stated custom upon th- se time honored occa sions, the table positively refused to “groan benea.h its weight of good things,” but the small boys groaned and refused to be comfort ed when, after all their efforts, a of goodies” remained upon the festal board. In the exciting tilt at the head and ring, en gtged in by the company in tbe afternoon. Sergeant R. 8. Hendry scored (he highest num ber of points and t *>k the first prize a magnifi cent cake, presented by Miss G. J. Hughes. Private Wm. Floyd came in for the second honor, and received the second prize, an ele gant cake, offer el by Mbs Anaa F Chapman The third prize, another tempting cake, the gift cf Mrs. Folsom, was awardtd to Private J. XV. Hughes, who had just entered the ranks as a “raw recruit,” but remembered the in- Yigcrat ng lessons in horsemanship. learneJ while a member of the flyi g department of “Joe Brown's Militia." The prizes were de livered in an appropriate address by Mr. D. W. Folsom, in behalf of the ladies. I In common with most other sections, the I crops here have suffered cor siderable damage from dry weather; but, with copious rains dur log the next few weeks, late corn and ths cot ton and upland rice croj s will recover ar.d pro bably yield an abundant harvest. The timber business, which engages the attention of many in this section during the fall and winter months, is lying dormant at this time, am will probably continue so until ihe market prices ruie higher. We are aware. Sir. Editor, that we have bought too much Western corn and Eastern hay: have eaten too largely of Western bacon, and planted too much cotton; have cut too much timber and shipped our early vegetab'es just in time to glut Northern markets But if the grand army of philanthropic scribblers who have adopted the poor, short-sighted farmer as th'ir especial protege, will give us a rest and allow us to eat our July dinners in peace and enjoy our peaches and watermelons, we nay do better next time. At least we beg a respite from their sat rical and impudent upbraiding*. long enough for some of them to learn the I practical difference between a linchpin and the liston rod of a steam engine. We are a miserable set of improvident crea'ures, but I nevertheless we may yet be elevated from this state of agricultural depravity and live and move in the 1 ght of scientific farming-all fr. ni the efforts of these reproving solons. For the sake of tlp'se who are to come after us let us hot e that we may even learn to see through a mills’one, if we have to peer through the eye where tbe corn drops into the mill. W INKLERSID. 11 MILLER’S FERRY, FLORIDA. The Farmers anil tlse 4'rops -A Pris oner Charged with a Heinous Of fense Commits Suicide in Jail. Miller's FxaRT, Fla July s.— Editor Mom ing Fetes Tbe hopes of the people are much revived by the many cooling showers which have fallen in this vicinity of iate. The crops had a back-set by the cold, late spring, and ere they recovered from this there set in a drought that lasted until the last of June; and during the drought the drill worm isaid by old farmers to be anew kind) was playing havoc with the corn; but they began to give way at the first rain that fell in June, and have now entirely disappeared The yam and potato crops are very backward on ac count of the dry weather, but people are now planting out draws and vines with the hopes of a rich reward. Potatoes planted out any time from now until tbe mi idle of August will make Urge produce if on manured or fresh land. The Choctawhatchee river is rising, and there is said to be a “log drive” comii g down from Geneva, of 38,000 logs Timber yet bears a good price at the mills below, notwithstand ing some hve shut up until cool weather. No sign of the cotton caterpillar has been seen or reported about here yet, and the cotton crops are very thrifty and bearing abundantly. Mr. B. A. Bozeman, an old man of somesix'y years, committed suicide last Saturday morn ing in jail at Vernon, the county site of Wash ington county. Bozeman was a widower, and begge l a female child of a Mrs. Jones, in the eastern part of the county, and promised to raise and educate the child, and, as bis business was to drive around the country in a single ox wagon. and take jobs for making and repairing carts and wagons, he would take his young charge with him. Last week a warrant was sworn out against him fora crime of a very serious nature perpetrated on this little Jones girl, who is about ten years of age. On being examined before W. B Jones, County Judge, he was. on the testimony of the girl and his own confessions, committed to jail in default of bail Last Saturday morning, as above stated, he was found suspended from a portion of his cell, with his neck broken. It is a deplora ble fact that such crimes as the above are get ting to be of alarming frequency in different parts of the country, Roderick.

It appears from of the police reports that in London.alone there are no lets than 30,000 regular thieves. 150,000 habitual gin drinkers, and 150,000 peo ple living in systematic debauchery and vice.

BLISS EXPLAINS THE BUL LETINS. A Comfortable Day tor the Preni deut—Cheering Meport to tbe Con nulling burgeona—Governor Ha good to Governor Fonter—The President’* Fever Decreaalng. Washington, July 13.—Dr. Bliss, upon being questioned to night with regard to the President’s reported weakness and de bility said: “There is no danger to be ap prehended from weakness. The President Is no weaker than any man would be with such an injury and after such a fever. He Is day by day taking more and more nour ishment, and, although it consists princi pally of milk, It is well assimilated and is amply sufficient to maintain his stiength until he is in a condition to take solid food.” Dr. Bliss’ attention was then called to the rumors, which have been prevalent here and elsewhere this week, to Gie effect that the surgeons are concealing from the press and public the graver and more dan gerous aspects of the President’s case, and that official bulletins do not fully and truthfully represent bis actual condition. In reply Dr. Bliss said emphatically and wilh feeling; “There was never anything more unfounded and unjust. We have reported all the President’s sjmptoms, good and bad, wilh perfect frankness and truthfulness. Bulle tins more honest and judicious than ours 1 have never been issued, and aDy one who m kes contrary assertions says what is un true. We did not think it proper or pru dent at first to express any opinion in regard to tbe significance of tbe facts given in our bulletins, but the facts as stated were accurate and trustworthy, and surgeons ard physicians throughout the country were competent to draw conclusions from them for themselves as well as for the people. Since, however, the President’s symptoms begun to be more decidedly and undoubtedly favorable we h ive relaxed tbe little rule] which we adopt ed, not to express opinions, and have said that the President is making slow progress towaids recovery; and that is the truth, although he is not yet out of danger. I think It com paratively safe now to say that he will probably recover.” After some further conveisation Dr. Biiss returned to the Presi dent’s room, saying, with a smile and nod of the head as he closed the door, “He is g >ing to get well.” STILL IMPROVING. Executive Mansion, July 13, 8:30 a. m [Official Bulletin.]—The President is doing well this mornintr. Pulse 00, temperature 9S 5, respiration 20.

Frank H. Hamilton and 1) H Ay new: The febrile rise yesterday afternoon was less marked, and occurred at a later hour than on the previous day, and to day, for the first lime, >h- President’s morning tempera ture fell to the normal point. Tbe geueral progress of his symptoms appears more favorable than hitherto. During the last twenty four hours he has taken thirty-two ounces of mi k and one ounce of rum. This morning he had also a slice of milk toast, and chewed the breast of a woodcock, but did not care to swallow the meat. He had last night one quarter of a grain of sulphate of morphia hypodermically (in no 24 hours during the past week has he re ceived more than a single dose of this quantity), and he slept well during the night. This morning he received two grains of bi-culpbate of qulnia. Yesterday, at 7 p. in., his pulse was 104, temperature 102.4, respiration 24. To day, at. 8:30 a. m., his pulse was 90, temperature 98.5, respira tion 20. At Ip. m., pulse 94, temperature 100 6, aespiration 22. D. W. Bliss. J. K. Barnes. J. J. Woodward.

Pulse 100, temperature 101 6, respiration 24. THE FEVER DECREASING. 11 p. m —Although the weather has been extremely hot, the President, in the arti ficially cooled atmosphere of his room, has passed a quiet and comfortable day, sleep ing naturally and restfully at intervals and taking more nourishment than iu any previous corresponding period. The maximum intensity of his daily febrile rise has steadily decreased since the night before last, wheD, iu the judgment of the attending surgeons, the crisis of the surgical fever was passed. The patient’s temperature and pulse were lower last night than on Monday nigbt, and are lower to-night than they were lastnigLt, while his general symptoms have corres pondingly improved. SATISFACTORY IN EVERY WAY. The attending surgeons report that the President’s fever at this hour, 4 p. m is much lower than at the same time yester day afternoon; that his general symptoms are favorable, aud that his condition is in every way satisfactory.

The Debate on the Land Bill—The Fight Over the Emigration Clause. London, July 13.— 1n the Houee of Com mons yesterday Mr. Stuart Wortley (Con servative) presented a petition with eight thousand signatures, expressing alarm at the injury likely to ensue to the Sheffield industries by unfair competition with for eign countries under tbe present one-sided system of free trade. It is understood that communications be tween England and Spain will probably result iu a satisfactory commercial treaty. The end of July is now mentioned as the time the land bill will reach the House of Lords, and even that can only be accom plished by the abandonment of the emigra tion provisions, an abandonment which, it is believed, tbe government now contem plates but will not announce until the strength of the opposition to them in the House of Commons has been fully demons trated, because of their promises to the Con servatives that they should be adhered to. The end of August will probably find Parliament still sitting. It Is understood that the government intends to exorcise the Land Commission to five members. Iu committee in the House of Commons last night on the land bill Mr. O’Donnell (Home Ruler) declaimed against the pro posal to depopulate an already under popu lated country, and pledged tbe Irish mem bers not only to obstruct the emigration clause, but to make It ridiculous and inope rative if passed. Mr. Richard Power (Home Ruler) said tbe Irish members would use every form in the House to prevent its introduction into the bill. Mr. Parnell and other members appealed to the government to withdraw the clause. Sir Stafford Nortbcote said be hoped the government would not give up the clause, which he regarded as a valuable portion of ibe bill. To day’s session of the House of Com mons was consumed in discussing in t*om mitti® clause 26 of the land bill. Vety little progress was made. Mr. Forster’s amendment, to 6trike out the provision re garding emigration to Canada and other Brit'oii colonies, was under discussion when the House adjourned. FRANCE IN AFRICA.

Fine Farms and Thrifty Planter*— Delightful Climate and Growing Trade Disappointed Truckers— Spleudld Roads-The Croak of Hard Times—An Amateur Be rati Ladles Hut are Not Idle—A Useful Citizen—The New Solicitor. Marion, Fla., July 9.—The “Flit Woods” site of our little village gives no idea of the good lands and homes in the neighborhood. Almost in view to the westward is the fine plantation of Dr. N. P. Marion, which he se lected as a healthy young planter over forty years ago, and has prospered on ever since. His residence is a model for the climate, is built high above the ground, and is shaded with a portico in front, a balcony to the par lor, and verandahs south and west. This in one of the finest oak groves. Southeast from Marion are the rich farms of Messrs. Frink, Hinton, Bryant, Purviance and others, the dwelling of the first being embowered among splendid oaks, with some fine oranges here and there. There are high and low hammocks and the different kinds cf pine lands. Much of the country is super lmposea on limestone—as may be seen by the channel of the Suwannee river near by—and hence the soils contain lime. The top soils are generally gray, and they are based on a soft, light yellow earth, instead of clay as usual. This peculiarity makes plough ing the easier, also hoeing. Work may be re sumed immediately after a shower. The yield in corn sometimes runs up to twenty-five bushels to the acre without fertilizer. We have not suffered much for want of rains, and there are fields which will yield thus this year. The soils are of fine grain, and hence stand drought well Oats fiourish as well here as several de grees northward. There are rich, dry hillsides which would suit peaches and choice grapes. The lands are level enough to admit of meas urement easily by ihe acre, which is a help in hiring labor, although our people are not as yet resorting to th's mode. Finally on this head, the climate is one of the best in tbe United States. About fifteen thousand dollars worth of cot ton was shipped from here last year, and the quantity will probably be increased this sea son. J our years ago Dr. Merion and Colonel John C. Reynolds, who has a farm near by, conceiv ed ihe idea of building up fruit and vegetable culture with the farming, and these new industries ate growing steadily. Mr. William H. Reynolds, though a law yer, lent his skill to the movement serviceably. Colonel It. invested lavishly in the best trees and vices, and his orchard and vineyard will begin to pay next year. The gardeners expect ed to ship three thousand crates, but have been disa; pointed, like the class generally. They were Inexperienced, and have wasted money and labor on unreliable crops, and they did not supply themselves with suitable fertilizers and implements, etc. However, the melon field* are fine, and will ward off 10-s from some. They should consider English peas, onions, cabbages, asparagus and Irish potatoes. Mr. Wily Lee had peas in March. The farmers being industrious and economi cal. and the climate and soils good (as de scribe!), lhere is an excellent opening for fruit culture and gardening, and it is best to com bine them with farming. Picture a farmer with corn, oats, cotton, sugar cane, peas and potatoes in abundance, for the main depend ence. and orchard yielding peaches, pears, grapes, figs, oranges, pecans, etc., and a few reliable vegetable crops to cause an incoming of neat little bank checks in April and June, and you have one rather more prosperous— and secure in it too-than can be found else where in this broad land. To the above lead ing supports may be added bees, tea culture, or silk, or poultry, according to taste and con venience. At well shaded homes here chickens flourish without attention. A little judicious care would make them profitable. The roads to Marion are so level and firm in the spring and summer that from several of the farms the crates may be delivered with hand carts, such as boys haul coal with in cities Wo confess that we feel like "sack cloth and ashes” at the rise in transportation, but we hope this matter will be amended next year. The zeal of several ladies has been aroused. Mrs. N W. Marion and the Misses Bryant will cult vate tea; Mrs, J L. Morgan and Mrs. Wiley Roberts oranges; and Miss M. Me Rory straw berries. And why not? A great medical writer has affirmed that a woman should take exercise amounting to four miles of brisk walking each day. Two orphan young ladies and their brother have made one of the best cotton crops in this county, much praise to them. Asa new comer from the upper coun try, we have been agreeably surprised to find the ladies so energetic, in spite of the long rum mers. An old lady, Mrs. Elizabeth McNabb, led the way by twelve yearg in orange culture in the now famous region at Hawthorne; and in like manner Mrs. Robinson is ahead of the other orange growers of this portion of the county. And besides, she and her daughters manage their farm admirably. We have been surprised at the renewal of the cry of hard times. Over two years ago it was given out that the country was prosper ous. Two immense cotton crops have been made in succession and sold well (the average), and yet the farmers in the South, at least, are iu a straitened condition.

SHERMAN IN GEORGIA. Some lodellbie Recollection*. Rocky Ford, July 9.— Editor Morning News: I see a good deal In the papers about General Sherman laying the blame on the Confederate soldiers of the burning of Columbia. I wonder if he would deny this: While at No. 9, Central Railroad, with headquarters in Judge J. B. Jones’ front yard, I entered to beg rations for nay little daughter, and he refused me, saying: "You must go to Jeff. Davis.” 1 replied, “Jeff. Davis was a gentleman, and if I could get to him he would help me.” This was about 9 o’clock p. m. Quite indignant, I started to leave, and he requested me to stay and take supper with him and staff, which I did, as I had not eaten anything all day. In about an hour supper was brought in and twelve of us sat down to a very choice repast, as it was composed of the fat of the land While in his tent, with him alone, the subject turned on ihe wanton destruction of property. He remarked, pointing toward the Judges fine residence, “Only for the critical condition of that poor woman In there, that bouse would go to ashes in the morning.” (Mrs. Jones had been confined the night before.) Sympathizing with her, he said: "I have got to leave her a quarter of beef in the morning when I leave.” For this I can’t vouch, but had it from the acting railroad agen*, that he left in the morn ing on his horse and following close to a fine carriage, drawn by two fine blaci horses, driven bv a black man, with a very flue yellow girl on the hind seat. The abeve day referred to he had killed about three hundred head of stock forjudge Jones, and burnt every building on the place except the new and old residence and one or two negro houses, and every panei of fence on the place. Respectfully yours, E. S. Mallory.

GEN. LEE AT APPOMATTOX. A PERSONAL REMINISCENCE BY A CONFEDERATE OFFICER. Rallying Ihe Broken Troop.-The Two Alternative* Waiting for Grant’* Jlessage— Longatreet’s Luat Words— The Hen in tbe Ranks. Gen. E P. Alexander in Philadelphia Press. Colonel Freeman tie of the British army, who was with the Confederate forces In the Gettysburg campaign, was one of the first to give the world an Idea of the magnanimi ty and unselfishness which so adorned the other noble qualities of heart and head by which the name of General Lee had within twelve months before become world-rc nowned. In an article in Blackwood's Maga zine for September, 1863, he describes a scene of which the present writer was a witness and which is here given in full, not only for its own intrinsic interest, but as a preface to another personal reminiscence of General Lee at tbe surrender at Appomat tox Court House, illustrating in, perhaps, even a stronger light the 6ame calm aud high spirit unruffled by any disaster, ever forgetful of 6elf and ever mindful of others and of duty. Colonel Freemantle, speaking of the charge of Pickett’s Division at Gettysburg, writes: “Soon afterward I joined General Lee, who, in tbe meantime, came to the front on being informed of the extent of the aisaster. If Longstrect’s conduct was admirable that of General Lee was perfectly eubiime. He was engaged in rallying and encouraging the broken troops, and was riding about a little in front of the wood quite alone, the whole of his staff being engaged in a similar manner further to the rear. His face, which is always placid and cheer ful, did not show signs of the slightest disappointment,care or annoyance, and he was addressing to every soldier he met a few words of encouragement, such as ‘All will come right iu the end; we will talk it over afterward, but in the meantime all good men must rally. We want all good and true men just now,’ etc. He spoke to all the wounded men that passed him, and the slightly wounded he exhorted *o bind up their hurts and take a musket in this emergency.’ Very few failed to answer this appeal, and I saw many badly wounded men take off their hats and cheer him. “He said to me: ‘This has been a sad day for us, Colonel—a sad day; but we can’t expect always to gain victories.’ He was also kind enough to advise me get into some more shell ered position. “Notwi bstat.diug the misfortune which had so suddenly befallen biro, General Lee seemed to observe everything, however trivial. When a mounted officer began licking his horse for shying at the burstirg of a shell, he called cu': ‘Don’t whip him, CaptaiD, don’t whip him; I’ve got just such another foolish horse mytelf, and whipping does no good.’* “I happened to see a man lying flat on his face in a small ditch, and I remarked that I did not think he seemed dead. This drew General Lee’s attention to the man, who commenced groaning dismally. Find ing his appeals to his patriotism of no avail, General Lee had him lgnomiuiouelv set on his legs by some neighboring gunners. “I saw General Wilcox (an officer, who wears a short round jacket and a Mattered straw hat), come up to him and explaia, almost crying, tbe state of his brigade General Lee immediately shook hands wb.h him and said cheerfully: ‘Never mind, General, all this has been my fault. It le 1 that have lost this fight, and you must help me out of it the best way you can.’ “Iq this manner I saw General Lee en courage and reauimate his somewhat dis pirited troops and magnanimously take up on his own shoulders the whole weight of the repulse. It was impossible to look at him or to listen to him without feeling the strongest admiration, and I never saw any man fail him c xcept the man in the ditch.” The mornlDg of the 9.h of April, 1865, found the Confederate army in a position in which its Inevitable fate was apparent to every man in it. The skirmishing which had begun in its front as its advance guard reached Appomattox Court House the night before had developed into a sharp fight, In which the continuous firing of the artillery and the s’eady increase of the musketry told to all that a heavy force had been thrown across our line of march, and that reinforcements to it were steadily arriving. The long trains of wagons aud artillery were at first halted in tbe road and then parked in the adjoining fields, allowing the rear of the column to close up and add! tional troops to pass to the front to rein force the advanced guard and to form a reserve line of battle in their rear, under cover of which they might retire when necessary. While these dispositions were taking place, Gen. Lee, who had dismounted and was standing near a fire on a hill about two miles from the court, house, call ed the writer to him, and, inviting him to a seat on a log near by. referred to the situa tion, and asked: “What shall we do this morning?’’ Although this opportunity of expressing my views was unexpected, the situation Itself was not.for two days before, while near Farmville, in a consultation with General Lee over his map, the fact of the enemy’s having the shortest road to the Ap pomatt >x Court House had been noted, and the probability of serious difficulty there anticipated, and in tbe meantime there had been ample opportunity for reflection on all of the emergencies that might arise. Without replying directly to the question, however, I answered first that it was due to my command (of artillery) that I should tellhim that they were in as good spirits, though short of ammunition and with poor teams, as they had ever been, and bad begged if it came to a surrender to be allowed to expend first every round of ammunition on the enemy aud surrender only the empty ammunition chests. To this General Lee replied that there were remaining only two divisions of infantry sufficiently well organ'z and snd strong to be fully relied upon (Field’s and M'•bone’s), and that they did not number eight thousand muskets together; and that that force was not sufficient to warrant him in undertaking a pitched battle. “Then,” I answered, “General, there are hut two alternatives, to surrender or to order the army to abandon its trains and disperse in the woods and bushes, every mau for himself, aud each to make his best way, with his arms, either to the army of Gen. Johnston in North Carolina or home to the Governor of his Stale. We have all fore seen the probability of such an alternative for two days, and I am sure I speak the sentiments of many others besides my own in urging that rather than surrender the army you should allow U3 to di-perse in the woods and go, every man for himself.” “What would you hope to accomplish by this?” 1 answered: “If there is any hope at all for the Confederacy or for the separate States to make terms with the United StaUs or for any foreign assistance, this course stands the chances, whatever they may be, while if this armj surrenders this morning the Confederacy is dead from that moment. Grant wiil turn one hundred and fifty thou sand fresh meu against Johnson, and with the moral effect of our surrender he will go, and Dick Taylor aud Kirby Smith will have to follow like a row of bricks, whlie if we all take to dispersing in the woods we in augurate anew phase of the war, which may be indefinitely prolonged, and it will at least have great moral tfleet in showing that in our pledges to fight it out to the last we meant what we said. And even, General, If there is no hope at all in this course or in any other, and if the fate of the Confederacy is sealed, whatever we do, there is one other consideration which your soldiers have a right to urge on you, and that is your own military reputation,m which every man in this army, officer or private, feels the utmost persoual pride, and has a personal property that bis children will prize after him. The Yankees brought Grant here from the West, after the failure of all their other Generals, as one who had whipped everybody he had ever fought against, and they call him ‘Unconditional Surrender Grant,’ and have been bragging in advance that you would have to surren der too. Now, General, I think you ought to spare us all the mortification of having you to ask Grant for terms, and have him answer that tc had no terms to offer you.” I still remember most vividly the emotion with which I made this appeal, increasing as I went on, until my whole heart was in it; and it seemed to me at the moment, one which no 6oldier could resist and against which no consideration whatever could be urged; and whin I closed, after urging toy suggestions at greater length than it is ne cessary to repeat, looking him in the fece and speaking with more boldness than I usual'v found In his presence, I had do’, a doubt-that he must adopt some such course as I bad urged. He heard me entirely through, however, very calmly, and then asked “How maDy men do you estimate would escape If I weie to order the army to disperse I replied: “I suppose two-thirds of us coaid get away, for the enemy could not disperse to follow us through the woods.” He said: “We have here only about six teen thousand men with arms, and not all of those who could get away would join General Johnston, but most of them would try and make their way to their homes tmd •This officer was Lieut. F. M. Colston, of Alexander'B Battalion of Artillery, some of whose guns had followed Pickett’s Division out into the fields. ESTABLISHED 1850. families, and their numbers would be too small to be of any material service either to General Johnston or to the Governors of the States. I recognise fully that the surrender of this army la the end of the Confederacy, but no course we can take can prevent cr even delay that result. I havj never be lieved that we would receive foreign assist* auce or get our liberty otherwise than by our own arms. The end Is now upon u, and It only remains to decide how we shall close the struggle. But in deciding this question we are to approach it not only as soldiers, but as Christian men, deciding on matters which involve a great deal else beside their own feelings. If I should order this army to disperse, the men with their arm?, but with out organization or control, and without provisions or money, would soon be wan dering through every Btate in the Con federacy, some seekiDg to get to their homes and some with no homes to go to. Many would be cimpelled to rob and plunder as they went to save themselves from starvation, and the enemy’e cavalry would pursue In small detachments, par ticularly In efforts to catch the general offi cers, and raid and burn over large district's which they will otherwise never reach, and the result would be the inauguration of lawlessness and terror and of organ ized bands of robbers all over the South. Now, as Christian men, we have not the r'ght to bring this 6tate of affairs upon the country, whatever the sacrifice of personal pride involved. And, as for myself, you young men might go to bushwhacking, but I am too old; and even jf It were right for me to disperse the armv, I should surrender myself te General Grant as the only proper course for one of my years and position. But I am glad to be able to tell you one thing for your comfort: General Grant will not demand an uncon ditional surrender, but offers us most liberal terms—the paroling of the whole armv not to fight until exchanged.” He then went on to speak of the probable details of the terms of surrender and to say that about 10 a. m. he was to meet General Grant In the rear of the army and would then accept the terms offered. Sanguine as I had been when be com menced the “he must acquiesce in my views,” I had not one word to reply when he had finished. He spoke slowly and de liberately and with some feeling, aid the completeness of the considerations he ad vanced, and which he dwelt upon with more detail than I can now fully recall, speaking particularly of the women and children, as the greatest sufferers in the s’ate of anarchy which a dispersion of the army would bring about, and bis reference to what would be his personal course If he did Older such disperson, all indicated that the question was not then presented to his mind for the first time. A short time after this conversation Gen eral Lee rode to the rear of the army to meet General Grant and arrange the details of the surrender. He had started about a half hour when General Fitz Lee sent word to General Longstreet that he bad broken through a portion of the enemy’s line, and that the whole army might make its way through. General Longstreet, on learning this, directed Colonel Haskell, of the at tiliery, who was very finely mounted, to ride after General Lee at utmost speed, killing his horse, If necessary, and recall him before he could reach General Grant. Colonel Haskell rode as directed, and a short distance in rear of the army found General Lee and some of- bis staff dismounted by the roadside. As he with difficulty checked his herse General Lee came up quickly, asked what was the matter, but, without waiting for a reply, said; “Oh! I’m afraid you have killed your beautiful mare. What did you ride her so hard for On hearing General Longstreet’s message, he asked some ques tions about the situation, and eent word to General Longstreet to use his own discre tion in making any movements; but he did not himself return, and lu a short while an other meesage was received that the suc cess of the cavalry under General Fi z Lee was but temporary and that there was no such gap in the enemy’s line as had been supposed. Soon afterward a message was brought from the enemy’6 picket that Gen eral Grant had passed around to the front and would meet. General Lee at Appomat tox Court House and General Lee according ly returned. Meanwhile, as the Confederate Fne un der General Gordon was slowly falling back from Appomattox Court House, after a? gallant a fight against overwhelming odds as it had ever made, capturing and bringing safely off with it an entire battery of the enemy’s, General Custer, commanding a division of Federal cavalry, rode forward with a flag of truce, and the firing having ceased on both sides, was conducted to General Longstreet, as commanding tempo rarily in General Lee’s absence. Custer demanded the surrender of the army to himself and General Sheridan, to which General Longstreet replied that General Lee was In communication with General Grant upon that subject, aud that the issue would be determined between them. Custer replied that he and Bherldan were Independent of Grant, and unless the surrender was made to them they would “pitch In” at once. Lougstreet’s answer was a peremptory order at once to h’s own lines and “try It If he liked.” Custer was accordingly escorted back, but Are was not reopened, aDd both lines remained halted, the Confederate about a half mile east of the courthouse. General Lee returning from the rear short ly aßerward, halted in a small field adjoin ing Sweeney’s house, a little In rear of his skirmish line, and awaited a message from General Grant, seated on some rails under an apple tree. This apple tree was not only entirely cut up for mementoes within two days afterward, but its very root 6 were dug up and carried away under the false impres sion that the surrender took place under it.* About noon a Federal staff officer rode up nd announced that General Grant was at the court house, and Gen. Lee with one of his staff accompanied him back. As he left the appie tree General Longstreet’s last words were: “Unless he offers you liberal terms, General, let us fight it out.” It would be a difficult task to convey to one who was not present an Idea of the feel ing of the Confederate army during the few hours which so suddenly, and so unexpect edly to it, terminated its existence, and with it all hopes of the Confederacy. Having been 6barply engaged that very morning, and Its movements arrested by the flag of truce while one portion of it was actually fighting and nearly all the rest, infantry aud artillery, bad just been formed in line of b&ttle in sight aus range of the enemv, and with guns unlimbered, it was impossible to realize fully that the war, with all its hopes, its ambitions, and its hardships, was thus ended. There was comparatively very little conversation, and men stood in groups look ing over the scene; but the groups were un usually sileut. It was not at first generally known that a surrender was inevitable, but there was a remarkable pre-acquiescence in whatever General Lee should determine, and the warmest expressions of confidence in his judgment. Riuks and discipline were maintained as usual, and there is little doubt that had General Lee decided to fight that aftemoou the troops would not have disappointed him. About 4 p. m. he re turned from the court house, and after in forming the principal officers of the terms of the surrender, started to ride back to his camp. The universal desire to express to him the unabitea love and confidence of the armj had led to the formation of the gunners oi ffew battalions of artillery along he roadside, with orders to tak off their hats in silence as he rude by. When be approached, however, the men could not be restrained, but burst Into the wtldeet cheering, which the adjacent infantry lines took up, and, breaking ranks, they all crowded around him, cheering at the tops of their voices. General Lee sapped his horse, and, after gaining silence, made the only speech to his men that he ever made. He was very brief, and gave no excuses or apologies for his surrender, but said he had done all in his power for his men, and urged them to go as quickly and q tletly to (heir homes as possible, to re sume peaceful avocations, and to be as good cbJzms a* they bad been soldiers, and this advice marked the course which he himself pursued so faithfully to the end. •The surrender look place in the hsuse of a Mr. McLean, a gentleman who, bv a strange coincidence, owned a farm on Bull Run at the beginning of the war. Generil Beauregard’s headquarters were at McL* an's house, just in rear of Blackburn’s Fort, during the first battle fought by the army, July 18. ’6l. McLean moved from Bull Run t) get h m-telf out of the theatre of war. The last battU took place on his new farm, and the suri en ier in his new residence.

Representatives of the leading news papers of the country, to whom the freedom of the White House has been granted since the sad tragedy at the Baltimore and Potomac depot, have at all times found Mrs. Garfield to be their fiimest adherent uud best informant. She. has learned to know many knights of the notebook, and is never too busy or distressed to impart the latest infor mation as to affairs in the grand old chamber, where the flutter of the Death Angel’s wings have been almost heard on more than one occasion since July 2. She will come softly into the press re- m after a consultation, aDd say, as ch erily as could be expected, “Gentle men, there has been no change," or, “Mr. Garfield feels much refreshed,” and then, pausing long enough to note the effect of her words, bow’ gracefully and retire. These visits are sometimes hourly; they are paid at least many times a day, and the corresponaents have come to look forward to them with much in* t rest. A correspondent of the Star, after describing an interview with the Presi dent’s wife, says Mrs. Garfield sat quite silent for some moments, apparently pre occupied by thought, and when she broke the silence her voice was tremu lous with emotion aud her eyes were lustrous with tears. “If it were only possible," she said, “for my husbaud and me to go around and see all these dear people who have been so grateful in their remembrance for us here of late days, I would be so happy; and I know he would, too. I waut to thank them—to tell them all how kindly 1 feel toward them for what they have said to me. I never could understand anything, about politics, and if I liked a person it made no difference whether they were Republicans or Democrats; and now I have grown to think that there is not much difference between the two great parties, for one says just as kind words in our present affliction as the other. It makes me feel like forming an opinion as to what I would do were women permitted to vote as well as men. I believe I would get two tickets, fold them together so as to look like one, and drop both in the ballot box.” The Star says editorially: “A little heroine worship such ns we now give the President’s wife cau never be out of place. It is right and even fortunate, because, while the human soul is in clined to hero worship, it is salutary that a woman should ofteu be the idol. Wo men are always better than men, their influence purer and the worship of any heroine among them more ennobling to individuals and to nations. England’s gratitude to Florence Nightingale softened men’s natures even in the stormy times of war. The presence of woman in our army hospitals during the civil war was as the fanning of an angel's wing to the wounded and dying after the frightful processes of toe burgeon.” BRIEF NEWS SUMMARY.

Judge Lawrence, Fiist Comptroller of the Treasury, has decided that when a party is by indictment in a State court charged with crime, and the case is re moved to a Circuit Court of the United States, the costs thereafter incurred therein are to be paid as in ciiminal cases originally prosecuted in said Cir cuit Court. The subsidy expenditures of the province of Para, Brazil, during the coming year, according to the budget, will amount to a total of $011,200, viz.: SOOI ,200 to various navigation enter prises, $200,000 to a sugar manufactur ing company, $50,000 on a contract for supplying the 1 city of Para with fish, and $60,000 for supplying it with fresh beef. The duties received at the port of Montreal for the fiscal year ending 30th ultimo were $7,077,703, an increase of $1,844,991 over 1880, $3,000,(fl over 1879, and exceeding the most prosperous year Canada has ever previously known, that of 1874-75, by $1,200,000. The re ceipts for last June were $710,928, an in- T/ease of 25 per cent, over the corre sponding month of 1880. Guiteau. besides being a member of the Plymouth Church, Brooklyn, from 1867 to 1869, was also a member of the Bible-class taught by Superintendent Hill at the Bethel. Mr. llill says that as soon as he learned Guiteau had shot the President he took his picture down from the wall, where it had liuug in the class room. Guiteau had borrowed money from him, and did not return it He was in no wise eccentric when Hill knew him. According to the Jomal do Rtceife, a well known sugar estate of Pernambuco effected the following results during the harvest of 1880'81. The capital employ ed, including lands, machinery, etc., was $1:10,000. The net results of the year’s operations amounted to $72,000, and the expenses to $40,000, leaving a profit of $32,000 tor the year. One item in the expense account was the labor of the proprietor and his son, which was valued at SIO,OOO. Since the census was taken in June, 1880, very nearly a million immigrants have landed in the United States. In New York alone during the fiist six months of 1881 the arrivals numbered 240,000. They are nearly all bound for the West, and do not produce an appre ciable effect on the labor markets of the Atlantic coast The new comers are of the self-Bupporting class, and on the vir gin land of the West will soon lie pro ducers of breadstuffs for export to the Old World. The sealing operations about New foundland have been very profitable the past season. Twenty-seven steamers and many sailing vessels were engaged, the steamers making two trips each to the ice floes, where the seals are taken, dur ing the season which lasted from Match 15 to May 15. The total number of reals captured by the steamers was 334,- 513 young and old; the weight of the blubber and skins exceeded 8,000 tons; the approximate local value of the steam er catch being $850,000. The Canadian, European, American and Asiatic Cable Company, to which a charter was granted at the last seesion of Parliament, has completed its organiza tion. On the directorate are the Direc tors of, the Bank of England, the Presi dent of a well known German bank, and a leading Australian banker. The Cana dian end of this cable will land on Sable Island. They will also establish tele graph communication with the West Indies by laying cables to the Bermudas and the Bahamas. The Detroit Free Press says: This event illustrates with striking emphasis the progress that has been made in American journalism during the last tiif century. Here was a President of the United States shot Within a few minutes the fact and all the details of it were known to ’the remotest corners of the country. Adams and Jefferson died July 4, 1826, and months elapsed before the news reached the confines of the country. This growth in journalism is the companion of growth in nearly every material enterprise known in the United States. 'The communication of General E. P. Alexander, addressed to the editor of the Philadelphia Press, which we reproduce in our columns, will be found interest ing. General Alexander, now First Vice President of the Louisville and Nash ville Railroad Company, was a cadet at West Point when General Lee was Su perintendent of the Academy, and served on his staff as Chief of Ordnance of the Army of Northern Virginia from the time that he succeeded General Johnston until just before the battle of Fredericks burg, when he w&3 promoted to the command of a battalion of artillery. The close personal relations between the two Generals are shown in the conversa tion which the survivor now recalls. The New Yolk Sun says: “In the long record of attempts on the lives of public personages, the most perfect analogue to the crime of Guileau seems to be the assassination of Spencer Perce val, the head of the British Ministry, in 1809. The real executive chief of the United Kingdom is, of course, the Prime Minister, and, like our President, he may be said to incarnate the deliberate will of the nation, though his representa tive character was by no means so per fect before the first reform bill as it is now. But it is a curious fact that Perceval,like Mr. Garfield,was shot by a disappointed efflee-seeker, one Belling ham, an English trader, who alleged gome injury at the hands of the Russian Government,and who teems to Lave be rime half crazed by his failure to redress from the British Minia- The President’s Opportunities. The heart of the South has gone out to the family of the stricken Executive, and its condemnation of the atrocious assassin has been hearty and universal. Southern manhood called for this ex pression of feeling, and loyalty to the republic supplemented the impulse that humanity prompted. The South prays that the President may rise from his couch of pain fully restored to health and vigor. Whilst she does not expect a political millenium she does look for such a course of conduct on the part of the administration, which the President can so largely shape, as will evidence to the world that peace and harmony once more reigns within our borders. The people were never so much of one mind and one heart, as on the days when the slender thread on which the President’s life was hanging threatened to snap. When the President emerges from his sick room, and once more assumes the discharge of his duties, he will stand confronted with opportunities such as no Executive since Washington has had presented to him. He can use them, or abuse them, or ignore them. He has the clearest proofs that the people of the South have high hopes of the Union, and are as devoted to the Federal Gov ernment as any in the land. He showed a disposition to labor for the country, and if he needed encouragement he has had it in abund ance. That he will fulfill the promises of his inaugural both in letter and spirit we firmly believe. No one expects him, however, to be any less a Republican, nor will his op ponents be any less Democrats in conse quence of the sympathy which his peril has excited. While our respect for the man has been increased by his heroism and endurance, we cannot forget that be is the leader of a party that has labored strenuously for the subversion of right and justico. We expect no concessions. The South asks only what the Constitution warrants. All we ask of him is to see to it that the laws of the Union be everywhere admin istered faithfully and impartially; that the looseness in the public service be cor rected and punished, and that the execu tion of the Federal statutes be confided to men worthy of confidence and fitted for their duties. The South is to-day as firmly wedded to the Union as New England, and is entitled to precisely the same treatment at the hands of the Fed eral Government. If he resolves to execute the laws in the right spirit, he will be cordially sup ported. The measures that he may sug gest for the welfare of the country will be criticized precisely as they would have been had he never seen Guiteau. If in keeping with the genius of the republic, they will be approved and sup ported; but if designed, as much of the Republican legislation has been, to fur ther the ends of party or the interest of corporate power, to the detriment of the people, they will be condemned. We expect no sentimental compliance on the part of Mr. Garfield with the spasmodic clamor now going on for reform in the civil service. He must confine himself to his party in filling the offices. The organs that clamor the loudest for reform would grow hysteric were he to appoint Democrats to office, and his party would not encourage him in doing so. He can punish rascality, and that we expect him to do. He can rise to a full appreciation of the dignity of his office, and that we feel that he will do. He can say to our people, “you are my countrymen, as brave, as loyal and as law-abidiDg as any citizens of the repub lic. There is one law for all, and while I hold my office you shall not have cause to charge me w.th shortcomings in its execution. This we trustee will do, and if he essays the task he will have the support and encouragement of every honest citizen. Mrs. Garfield’s Fund. When the President’s life was tremb ling in the balance the announcement that the New Y'ork Chamber of Com merce had subscribed $250,000 for the benefit of his wife and family sent a thrill of pleasure throughout the coun try. All felt the nobility of the gift, and few urged the impropriety of its accept ance. It transpires, however, that the money has not been raised, and various cities are called on to make up the deficiency. The matter is badly managed, and is placing Mrs. Garfield in a false position. The first proposal was proper, the amount been raised immediately she could have accepted it. Now she can hardly do so, since she is held up in the light of a mendicant, which she is not. Should the President die, no doubt the people would give her a million, if she would accept it, which it is probable that she might hesitate to do, as she would not be at all impoverished. The President is in no im mediate danger, and if he were he would know that the people would see that his family did not want. The “fund” hunt puts his wife on a level with Grant, and is unseemly and insult ing. The motives that prompted it were commendable, but the pursuit of the balance is cheap and unworthy of the men who conceived the project. If they cannot give the full amount let them offer what they have on hand, and if Mrs. Garfield sees proper to accept it well and good. The hat pas. ing should stop at once. Mail Matters in Florida. There appears to be something radi cally wrong with the mails in Florida. The delay is owing to the railroad schedules. The matter is one which should receive the attention of the post office authorities. We would suggest that the merchants in Middle and West Florida write direct to the Post Office Department at Washingt in representing the present status of the mail service in their section. 9 The agricultural products of New Zea land are getting to be worth considering by statisticians. A correspondent of an English paper reports the products of the single province of Canterbury for 1880 from 389,729 acres under cultiva tion at 5,461,400 bushels of wheat, 7,776 273 of oats, 1,124,281 of barley, and 37,466 tons of potatoes. There aie about 12,000.000 sheep in all New Zea land. The New Zealanders have of late years chauged the character of their diet, but still they must have a great deal of stuff to export. Thus the can nibal islands are falling into the line of the world's march. So much reliance is placed upon steam engines that modem steamships are ill fitted to sail, and when their machinery is disabled they can do scarcely anything more than drift where winds and cur rents take them. A comparison between a full-rigged ship and an ocean steamer, especially these fitted up mainly for speed under steam, shows this at a glance, and the story of the Vandalia illustrates it by a practical test She was crippled about three hundred miles from land, and took ten days to get into port. The Business Report. A feature in the national financial situ ation, of which much has been made, is relieved by an opinion of Attorney General MacVeagb, which releases $60,- 000.000 of gold which was supposed to be necessarily held for legal tender re demptions. This puts an end to all the talk that the supply of gold in the Treasury will be unequal to the demand shortly to be made upon it. While stock speculation has been very moderate, the business of the country has been steadily and largely improving. Forty-three rail roads are officially heard from for June, and show an increase of 80.5 per cent, over June of last year. Of these forty three roads but five show a decrease, while oue shows a increase of 98 per cent. Despite the reported rate war, which may or may not be all that is stated, the railroads are evidently doing a large business. Our export trade for June falls behind last year, but the earlier months show an advance. Cotton has fallen off 25,000 bales in the month, but in six months, from January to July, it exceeds last year by over 600,000 bales. The export of flour in June exceeded the same month last year by 20,000 barrels, but other breadstuffs show a falling off. It is estimated that our exports of all kinds for June have fallen off about $10,000,000 as compared with last year, but our imports have been equally re duced. The balance of trade for the six mootbs is decidedly in our favor. The record, therefore, in this direction is en tirely agreeable and even flattering. If the next six months shall show as well all will be favorable to the prosperity of the country. It is too early to speak definitely of the grain crops. Rumors are current that large harvests are being reaped in Eu rope, and that our crop prospects are poor. While it is probable that Europe will provide more than an average home supply, it by no means follows that we will have no market for our products. Nor is it probable that we will have a short crop. It may not be so large as that of 1880, but probably will be quite as large as that of 1879. It is now believed that the cutting of rates on grain by the railroads is less as against each other than as agaiDst the water routes. These have brought anew factor in the grain trans portation problem. The Mississippi river route is the formidable competitor. There is no doubt that, while the rail roads are meeting the low rates on this route, they are doing a good business in general freights. Thus, all things con sidered, the country is in a favorable condition and goes into summer with many elements of prosperity. M. Bartholemy St. Hilaire, the French Foreign Minister, delivered an address two weeks ago at the Ver.-’ailies Agri cultural show. He contrasted the re covery and general prosperity of France with the depression of agriculture; told the agriculturists that in that district their system was so perfect that they could not, like others, be exhorted to improve their methods; urged them to expect little from the State, yet admitted that it might do something for them; incidentally advised them to elect mode rate men as Deputies; and urged them to undergo the agricultural ordeal as steadfastly as ten years ago they under went the political ordeal. M. St. Hilaire concluded as follows: “Agriculturists of France be Of good hope, and just because you are now suf fering, the time ought not to be far dis tant when, through the instability of all things in this world you will surely, in compensation for your trial, receive all the goods things which are your due.” The United States Government has re cognized the Calderon Government of Peru, set up to make peace with Chili, which has conquered the country, and demands indemnity before retiring her army from Peruvian soil. Calderon’s first and most disagreeable duty has been to raise the heavy indemnity levied by the Chilians on Lima. The first con tribution demanded was 800,000 silver dollars, which he has settled by the pay •ment ot 8,000,000 paper soles, probably a depreciated currency. It is hoped that Chili will moderate her demands for in demnity in view of the poverty of Peru. She will probably demand the guano islands, and in fact has already taken possession of the Lobos Islands and sold to the English market 50,000 ions at $35 per ton. Chili has just held her Presi dential election, but the result has not yet reached us. The leading candidate was Don Domingo Santa Maria, who represents the Liberal party and the ad ministration, and is at present a Judge, a man of high character and long ex perience in public affairs. Brad-street's Weekly Circular gives the failures throughout the country during the past week at 49, a striking contrast with the number for the previous week, which was 115. The former were dis tributed as follows: New England States, 11; Middle States, 16; South ern States, 6; Western States, 11; California and the Pacific coast States, 1; Canada and the Provinces, 4. The average failures during the past two months and a half have been 90 per week. Bradstreefs also says that ad vices from the leading trade centres do not indicate material change in the gen eral trade and industrial situation. The combination of the recent shocking oc currence at Washington with the aver age incidents of the 4th of July holiday have had the effect of reducing the vol ume of business. With the exception of the drought in Texas, the condition of crops in the South appears to be favorable In the Western and North western grain growing States the reports are also of a favorable character. Colorado now stands at the head a9 a silver and gold producing State. Nevada carried the flag for years, but in 1880 she had to yield it up to Colorado. The list runs as follows: Gold aud silver produc tion for 1880: Colorado $23,000,000, California $19,000,000, Nevada $15,000,- 000, Utah $6,000,000, Dakota $4,000,000, Arizona $3 500,000, Montana $3,500,000, Idaho $2,000,000, Oregon sl,ooo,ooo,New Mexico $600,000. Total $77,600,000. Colorado increased her production of the precious metals from $17,000,000 in 1879 to $23,000,000 in 1880, and those who have the best means of judging of the production for 1881 put the amount down at $35,000,000. The District Attorney has received a letter addressed by George Francis Train to “Citizen Assassin Guiteau, care War den, Washington, D. C.,” in which Train offers to become counsel for the assassin, and to guarantee his acquittal. Numbers of letters to Guiteau have been received, most of them apparently from idle per sons who make letter-writing a pastime. The District Attorney thinks that Gui teau is already breaking down morally, and that his apparent! good spirits will soon wilt and leave him in despair. The twenty million chinchona trees planted in Ceylon in 1880 are expected to yield in six years ten million pounds each year, but it is believed that the de mand will fully keep up wih the supply, so that prices will not decline. A Pen-and-ink Sketch of Thomas Jefferson. The American Sentinel, a weekly paper published at Albion, Edwards county, Illinois, has commenced the publication of the history of the “English Settle ment” at Edwards county in 1817-18. This history is by the late George Flow er, who, in conjunction with Morris Bir beck, founded the colony. Flower and Birbeck were marked men in their day. The latter particularly has left his im press upon the State for the active and efficient part he took in resisting the ne farious attempt to fasten slavery upon the State in 1823-24. He was an accom plished scholar and thinker, and the State has scarcely to this day had an abler writer. The paper of Mr. Flower, so far as published by the Sentinel, is very interesting, aud a most valuable contribution to the early history of the State. Mr. Flower was an English gentleman of education, intelligence and wealth, and had a large acquaintance with dis tinguished men both in Europe aud the United States. In. the fall of 1816 he made an extraordinary trip on horseback through Tennessee, Kentucky and Vir ginia, and in the winter of 1816-17 he became the guest of Mr. Jefferson at Monticello. The following is the de scription of Mr. Jefferson and Monti cello given by Mr. Flower. We do not recollect having seen anything connected with Mr. Jefferson more interesting than the sketch of Mr. Flower: “We entered the State of Virginia at Arlington. I found Mr. Jefferson at his Poplar Forest estate, in the western part of Virginia. His house was built after the fashion of a chateau. Octagon rooms, floors of polished oak, lofty ceil ings and large mirrors betokened his French taste, acquired by his long resi dence in France. Mr. Jefferson’s figure was rather majestic. Tall—over six feet —thin, and rather high shouldered; man ners simple, kind and courteous. His dress in form and color was quaint and old-fashioned, plain and neat —a dark pepper aud salt coat, cut in the old Quaker fashion, with a single row of large metal buttons, knee breeches, gray worsted stockings, shoes fastened by large metal buckles—6uch was the appearance of Jefferson when I first made his acquaintance in 1816. His two granddaughters—the Misses Ran dolph—well educated and accomplished young ladies, were staying with him at the time. After staying a brief time at Poplar Forest, I went to the house of Captain John Cole3, in Albemarle county. Mr. Isaac and Mr. Walter Coles, his brothers, lived with him. Mr. Edward Coles.the youngest brother, was then in England forming an acquaint ance with Mr. Birbeck. The sister, Miss Coles, had just been married. Her husband, Mr. Stephensou, then a young lawyer, afterwards Minister to Eagland, was" then on a bridal visit. -The greater part of the winter I passed at Monticello, the permanent residence of Mr. Jefferson, in Charlotte county. The chief charm of the visit was in the evening conversations with Mr. Jeffer son, who gave me the inside history of events, before only kuown to me as to the world generally, in the published re cord, or outside history, which is all that the public is generally allowed to see. I was much attracted by the features of the country, and by the climate of West ern Virginia. But the brand of slavery was upon the land. Dilapidated fences, decaying homesteads, wornout land everywhere met the eye, giving an unin vitin’g aspect to a couutry perhaps more favored by nature than any other por tion of the Union. In the spring I was at Washington, and present at the in auguration of James Monroe as President of the United States. “At the house of Mr. Madison I saw for the first time Mr. Edward Coles, who had just returned from England. “This Mr. Edward Coles was sub sequently Governor of the State of Illinois, and to bis energy and ability the State is indebted for the defeat of the scheme to make Illinois a slave State. A biographical memoir of the great ser vices of Governor Coles is now in pre paration by the Hon. E. B. Washburne.” Testing Carp. In view of the fact that an article from Turf, Field and Farm has been going the rounds of the Southern press, depre ciating the table qu&lit.cs of carp, the following from the Griffin (Ga.) Few* may be considered appropriate and timely: “Through the courtesy of Mr. A. A. Wright aud Mr. O. 11. Ison yesterday, a Fetes representative was privileged to test the merits of the carp as a table fish and to enjoy the honor of eating the first carp of the season. “A splendid specimen was taken from the carp pond yesterday morning—lull eighteen inches long, and was early placed in the hauds of Doc Ison’s cook, who baked it in the most approved style. As the Fetes man confronted the baked carp he was impressed with the thought that it was a dish that would grace ihe royal table. “A practical investigation resulted fa vorably for the carp. The meat has a cleaD, white appearauce, and looks very inviting to the eye. It lias a fine flavor and is anything but insipid. It has not, perhaps, the rich delicateness of the white shad—but then where is there a fish that will rival the shad? After a full test we arc of the opinion that the carp has all the good qualities for a table fi.-k and will come to be in popular de mand. “As the fitness of the carp for table use is now being generally discussed, and is of the utmost importance with reference to the culture of the fish, we have thus given our opinion of its merits. And that our opinion might, be entitled to the greater credit and value on this sub ject, we sent a portion of the carp to a number of gentleman who are well known as fond of fisbiug and of fish, and whose judgment is of value on this point. Afterwards we received from them the following communication: Editor Daily Fort: At your request we have tested the German carp taken from the tish pond of Mr. A. A. Wright, of this city, and prepared by Mr. O. 11. Ison, and unhesitatingly pronounce it a fish of elegant flavor aud of superior quality as a table fish, being very tender and juicy, aud almost entirely free from bones. We cheerfully recommend it to all persons desiring to establish fish pounds, either for pleasure or profit. “J. C. Kino. “G. A. Cunningham. “T. J. Bkooks. “John B. Mills.” A Novel Mnuggling Deylce. Washington Special to Chicago Tribune. A novel device in smuggling has re cently come to the notice of Colonel Alexander, the Fifth Auditor of the Treasuty. Some time ago a vessel laden with lumber somewhere in Texas was dispatched to one of the Mexican Gulf ports, but for some reason she could not make her destination, and discharged her cargo upon the beach some sixteen miles distant. After a time the Ameri can Consul, or someone acting for him, evidently not well informed of the affairs of the vessel’s owners, sold the lumber on their account and sent the money to the Treasury Department. The lumber was sent by its purchaser to a saw mill, and the first log was placed in position to be cut into boards. The saw had pene trated only a few inches whent here be gan to appear upon its teeth shreds of clothing, and finally became fast and refused to move further. Investigation disclosed the fact that the log had been made hollow by boring, and had been filled with clothing and other dutiable material and then plugged up. The ves sel was seized by the Mexican Govern ment, but being worm eaten and worth less was abandoned, the Captain making his escape. The question before the Treasury is in regard to the disposition of the proceeds of the sale of the lumber. It is claimed by the owners of the vessel, and also by the crew, who aver that they were not paid for their services. Mr. Dennis Grady, of Cumberland, Md., possesses a horseshoe which is claimed to have been worn by the horse John Brown rode over the bridge at Harper’s Ferry on his famous raid in 1859. The shoe is of peculiar pattern, and in the lower surface is a wide, deep groove, which is packed with tarred rope, evidently intended to muffle the noise of the horse’s footfalls. Mr. Grady proposes to present his relic to the Smith sonian Institution. Count Baworowski has left his fortune of two million guldens (about $1,000,000) to the Austrian province of Galicia for scientific articles and philanthropic pur poses. INTERVIEW WITH DR. BLISS. Reasons for Thinking that the Bul let Will Be Extracted. Washington Cor. Baltimore Sun, 10th. “The President is better than he has been at any time since he was shot,” said Dr. Blisb, the physician in charge, this afternoon, “and every day and hour adds to the hopes of his recovery. From 8 o’clock last night, when he received his morphine, he slept in naps of a half hour each until midnight, and as he obtained rest his pulse and temperature decreased. From midnight until 2 o'clock this morning he slept continuously, which is the longest period of continu ous sleep that he has had. This improve ment in his rest is very reassuring. “Do you consider,” your correspond ent inquired, “that the danger period has passed?” “Oh, no it will not pass, I think, for a week. Yesterday we were somewhat disturbed by the increase in tempera ture, as we did not know what change there might be in the internal conditions to cause it; but the temperature was soon reduced, and by very simple means. To-day it is much better. He is, of course, very weak. If you could see that strong man in his present condition you would realize how severe his hurt is. He is doing better continuously— very much better than we could have dared to hope.” “The physicians who are not in this case and who have not seen the patient, doctor, seem to know more about it than you do. They say now that the diagno sis was all wrong; that the wound is not so severe as it has been made to appear, and that it is very doubtful whether the ball pierced the liver or entered the ven tral cavity?” “I know they do, aud I do not under stand why medical gentlemen are willing to put themselves in that position. It might do for laymen. We have been taking careful notes of the case every half hour for the benefit of the President, for the sake of science and for ourselves. These notes will constitute the record, and the result will show that the original diagnosis was perfectly cor rect. There are besides certain indica tions, strong indications, which we have communicated to the consulting physi cians in writing, and not by telegraph, and which for prudential reasons we have not given to the public, that make it pretty certain that we will be able to locate the ball, and which make it pro bable that we ultimately can remove it without danger.” “What are these indications?” “At present we deem it prudent to withhold them, but they are such as to make it clear that the track of the ball was rightly stated in the first diagnosis. The medical gentlemen who say that the ball did not enter the liver have forgot ten their anatomy. We know that the ball entered three inches into the body. We have felt and developed the course of the ball so far. Where it went then we do not definitely know, but from the direction of the three inches of the course which has been ascertained it is certain that it mu9t have entered the liver aud probably it passed entirely through the abdominal cavity, and is lodged in the anterior wall of the abdo men. That is where I think it is now— in the anterior wall of the abdomen, and not in the abdominal cavity at all. “The ball entering tbe body where it did and passing inwaids three inches, must of necessity pass through a por tion of the liver. At that point in the body the liver lies close alongside of the ribs, and the ball could not penetrate the body at that point and enter so great a distance without striking the liver. The liver is there and must have been hit. Even if the ball dropped downwards af terwards it must have grazed the liver in its downward course. But, as I said, the indications of which we have pri vately advised Drs. Agnew and Hamil ton by letter, are that the ball went through the liver to the abdominal cavity and is lodged in the anterior wall of the abdomen, as at first supposed,and it will be easy when the time comes to remove it from that polut without danger. I do not think it will be necessary to enter tho abdominal cavity at all.’’ “Is the wound healing?” “The preliminary stages of the pro cess of healiDg have begun. There Has been no healing of granulated surface. The pus that has come from the wound thus far comes from I don’t know how far in, but it is not the pus of a healing wound. It is the pus from the broken outlying tissues undoubtedly.” “How do you expect to know whether the wound proper is healiDg?” “We shall keep tbe wound open at present. There is a wall formed by na tnre around the entire track of the ball. We cannot, of course, probe it at pres ent, but we know that the wall exists. It will not be necessary to enter the ab dominal cavity for any purpose. If the pus should not come from along the entire track of the wound, we should know that fact in a few hours. It would be demonstrated by a change in the patient’s internal conditions. There may be some sbredsof clothing in the track of the wound; there may be a stoppage at the point where this foreign substance is, or at the point where the bullet itself is located, and a pus cavity might form. If the track of the wound should be closed that way it would be necessary to instantly enter and relieve the stoppage. We are confident we could do that with out any danger. It would in any evoDt be necessary to relieve that stoppage and to get the woundfopen to prevent blood poisoning. The ball itself might be encysted. We think it is. We hope to be able to say by the end of this week that the President is entirely out of dan ger. He still feels the pain and soreness very much.” PROPHETIC WORDS The President’* Realization of the Danger of Assasatuallon. Miss Frances E. Willard relates the following incident of a conversation she had with President Garfield shortly after his inauguration. She had expressed to him the pleasure it had given her to make his mother’s acquaintance, and he replied: “Dear old mother, she takes such an interest in her son James.” He then went on to say how she had such fears for his personal safety that on one occasion during the campaign, alarmed by the presence of some rather suspicious looking Btrangers at Mentor, she took him aside and cautioned him to be on his guard against them. She thought that they would like to get him out of the way as a quick solution of the pending contest. After speaking thus to Miss“Willarcl, the President remarked, “I presume it is true that any man who has been put forward as the Chief Ex ecutive of a nation, whether he be a King or a President, is a target so con spicuous that be has a sort of fascination for a certain class of men with homicidal tendencies." Immediately after he added, thoughtfully and seriously, these prophetic words: “I presume, personal ly, occupying the position I do, I am in daily danger of assassination.” The conversation then turned upon lighter subjects, but an impression had been made upon Miss Willard, which she now vividly recalls. In commenting upon the attempted assassination. Miss Willard said that in all the demonstrations of sorrow there was nothing so significant of good as the universal sympathy expressed by the South. Since President Garfield’s elec tion Miss Willard has spent three months in the fourteen Southern States, working and speaking for temperanee in nearly all the chief cities, and every where, from the best classes in religion, philanthropy and politics, she says she has heard only the kindest expression toward the new master of the White House. The gen eral opiilion of people and press, as she had heard and seen it, was that his fair and liberal spirit, his policy of national education, internal improvement and fraternal interchange, would do what no other Northern man had done to bring about the era of good feeling, the really reunited republic. A St. Petersburg correspondent writes that in the latest budget of the Russian empire the division allotted to the house hold expenses of the late Czar includes fifteen hundred roubles for providing birch brooms (Ruthen Besen) for clean ing the Winter Palace. Estimating the cost of each at the retail price in St. Petersburg, he finds that no less than eighteen thousand of these brooms have been used every year for the Winter Palace. Nearly fifty must have been worn to the stump every day in the late reign. “Damn the Doctors.” —General Bti*r man. TESTING* THE CARTRIDGES. An Avertge Penetration of Threo Inches In Son White Pine. Messrs. Poe Whittlemore, who have tested the cartridges which remained in Guiteau’s pistol after the shooting, have made a report to the District Attorney as follows: “The pistol is marked ‘British Bulldog,’ but does not bear the maker’s name. It is double acting, with revolv ing cylinder, containing five chambers, each of one and one quarter inches in length and calibre forty-four one hun dredths of an inch. The barrel is two and one half inches in length. With the pistol were four cartridges, which were handed to us from your office safe by yourself, and six others, apparently like them in every respect, handed to us by Detective McElfresh. In our experimental firing we first used three of those banded U3 by you, reserving one for weighing and next three of the others. Of the six received from Detective McElfresh two failed to explode and one was reserved for weigh ing. The first three referred to above are designated in the following table by the numbers 1, 2 and 3, and the second three fired by the numbers 4, 5 and 6. The target was of six pine boards, each one inch thick, and placed one behind the other at intervals of one inch. First ascertaining that the pistol was in com plete order, shots were fired from it at the target from a distance of four feet. The results are given as follows: Num ber 1 went through three boards and glanced on the fourth. No. 2 went through three boards and bedded itself in the fourth. No. 3 went through one board and lodged in the second, with the points through. No. 4 went through two boards and imbedded in the third. No. 5 went through two boards and half through the third. No 6 went through two boards and imbedded in the third. In each case where a bullet bedded it badly splintered the rear of the board. The average penetration from the fore going is about three inches in ordinary soft pine. The weighing of the first cartridge reserved gave the following result: Rifle musket powder, 23 grains, leaden bullet, 200 grains, and the second gave rifle musket powder 23 grains and leaden bullet 200 4 The bullets were conical shaped with the head some what flattened, and as the penetration shows were thrown with great force by the charge of the powder.” All ac counts, including that of the would-be assassin, agree that he fired two shots at the President. One of them entered his body and the other cut his coat sleeve, but did not touch his arm. A most care ful seareh has been made throughout the depot, but no trace of the musing ball can be found. It is a profound mystery what became of it upless it spent its force, fell to the floor, and was picked up and secreted by some individual. THE ERL ANGER SYNDICATE Continues to Swell Its Possessions and Increase Its Importance—Will Hid lor the Cincinnati Southern, and It' Successful Build a Depot at Chattanooga. Chattanooga Timet. Mr. Fred. Wolffe, financial agent of the Erlanger Syndicate, was in the city for a few hours yesterday. The Times learned from him that he completed the negotiation for the purchase of the Memphis, Holly Springs and Selma Railroad, an incompleted line extending from Memphis to Selma, 90 miles of which are already built out of Memphis, 85 miles graded, and the rest will be fin ished at once. The great import of this purchase can readily be seen at a glance on the map. A road now extends from Selma to Al bany, which if not already, will soon be owned by the syndicate; they recently purchased the road from Albany to Brunswick, which, with their acquisi tions noted above, will give an uninter rupted line from Memphis to the sea. Mr. Wolffe left yesterday afternoon for New Orleans, where he will meet Mr. John Scott, general manager of the syn dicate, and they will take formal posses sion of the Spanish Fort Railway, re cently purchased by them as their en trance into New Orleans for the New Orleans and Northeastern Railway, the road now in course of construction by them from Meridian to New Orleans. The grand scheme of this gigantic syndicate is now rapidly developing, and already their lines terminate at New Or leans, Shreveport, Vicksburg, Meridian, Memphis and Brunswick, with the head aud centre at Chattanooga; it is now one of the most formidable systems in the South, and is steadily gaining in in fluence and power. Mr. Wolffe informs the Times that the Erlangers will be strong bidders for the lease of the Cincinnati Southern Rail way, and in the event they are success ful, Chattanooga will become their central operating point between Cincin nati, Brunswick, New Orleans and Shreveport, and a magnificent depot will be erected by them on their grounds near their freight depot. Railroading on the Pacific coast is not all fun. A locomotive engineer who is running from Los Angelos to Yuma, two hundred and fifty miles, writes to his friends in Newburyport: “It is a very hard division to run on, the heat is so severe during the summer. Over one hundred miles of the road is over a dry, sandy desert, without a drop of water or a living green thing, and such sand storms as we do have! It makes it very disagreeable. For over fifty miles the road is below the sea level; one place is 260 feet below, and is the hottest place on the road; the glass stands sometime at 130 degerees, and will average all sum mer 110 degrees.’’ For this he is paid at the rate at $4 70 a fry. Conductors get SIOO to sllO a month. The recent census shows that the total population of the Austro Hungarian Em pire last December was 37,739,407, making an increase for the decade of 1,925,450, to which the Hungarian pro vinces contributed only 191,306. The annual rate of increase during the last five years has been more than one-third higher in Germany than in Austria. The popula ionof Vienna is 720,105. £t. . B. LESTER, GROCER. 21 WHITAKER STREET.

THE principil cause of nearly all sickness at this time of the year has its origin in a disordered which, if not r. gulated in time, great suffering, wretchedi ess and death will ensue. A gentleman, writing from South America, says: “I have used your Hannons Liver Regulator with good effect, both as a prevention and cure for Malarial Fevers on the Isthmus ot Panama.” If you feel drowsy, debilitated, have fre quent headache, mouth tastes badly, poor ap lietite and tongue coated, you are suffering from torpid liver or “biliousness,” and nothing will cure you so speedily and permanently as to take Simmons Liver Regulator. It is given with safety and the happiest re sults to Ibe most delicate infant. It takes the place of quinine and bitters of every kind. It is the cheapest, purest and best family niedi cine in the world. SOLD BY ALL DRUGGISTS. But the Genuine in White Wrapper, with red Z. prepared only by J. H. ZEILIN Jt CO.

C., Army anl Navy Herald says "The venerable Chatham Ar tillery of Savannah, with one exception the oldest military organization in the United States, will attend the Yorktown Centen nial, where they will be a centre of attrac tion, as they will have with them the cannon presented to them by General Washington- The first public service performed by this ancient corps was the burial of General Nathaniel Greene, at Savannah. The Chat hams have a large company fund, besides their own well filled purses, and will make a fine display at Yorktown.” “Georgia,” says the Army and Nary Regu lar,of Washington,“will be well represented at the Yorktown Centennial by the ancient Chatham Artillery, of Savannah, the second oldest military corps in the country, lliey have two guns presented by Washington, which they will man at the Centennial, where they will parade in their very best style and create a marked sensation.” Railroad blatters —Teatlng the Alr- Brahe. We learn that a party of Central Railroad and Savannah, Florida and Western Railway officials,on Tuesday evening male a short trip over the latter road with a locomotive tor the purpose of testing the American Vacuum Brake.

Felix Prendergast, Master Ma chinist, J. 8. Tlsod, Master of T ansporta tion, Captain P. N. Rayna), Fore in *n. The test was highly satisfactory, and the party were well pleased wi'h theirexp-riei ce. It ts stated that this brake costs only about half that of the other kii da used. The expense of operating the vacu um brake is trifling in comparison with others. This brake is used by the New York Elevated Railway and by many other railroads North. First Anniversary.

He struck on his left arm, slightly disloca ting his wrist, but sustained no serious in jury. The accident created considerable excitement in the house, and a report was current in the neighborhood that the little fellow was fatally Injured. Fortunately, such was not the case, and the physician who was summoned to attend him pro nounced that he would be all right in a short time, and, sure enough, during the after noon, the little fellow was cut among his playmates with Lis arm in a cling.
