khe noted Iodine Spring, in South Hero
where short stop was made. Thence, taking
boat again, the excursion passed through the
passage which separates Grand Isle and
North Hero, and again turning to the south,
reached Plattsburgh at half-past twelve.
Here they dined at Bouquets, and returned
10 St. Adams in the afternoon. The occa-
sion ended with reception in the evening
at the residence of Mr.. E. b. Whiting. The
W hole passed off pleasantly and successfully.
The next annual meeting and reunion will

Death of Admiral Farragut.

This distinguished officer died at Ports
mouth, N. H., at noon last Sunday, of an
affection, of the heart, in the 10th year OF
full and bonored, and at the same time SC
eventfuI and romantic. Born among the
mountains of East Tennessee, he has said
that his earliest definite recollection was be-
ing on his fathers gunboat, on the Mississippi
river. He was a midshipman at an age when
most boys have barely left the nursery. He
was an active and useful officer in the Essex
during her famous cruise in the Pacific in
1924, and bore himself calamity in the
bloody fight at Valparaiso, by which that
man, for nearly fifty years he served his coun-
try on almost every sea- At the breaking
out of the Rebellion, he was living in Vir-
ginia, and though all his associations and
friends were with the South, he did not hest
tate to declare his intention to 60 with the
Old Flag. His brilliant achievements at
New Orleans, Port Hudson, Vicksburg and
finally at Mobile, are too well known to need
recapitulation. In the opinion of eminent
critics. no one man contributed more than he
to the downfall of the Rebellion.
The private life ofthe Admiral was blame
less. His manners were amiable and he was
ALWAYS noted for uniform kindness to his
officers and men. His death leaves vacancy
not easily to be filed, though the events of
his later years prove that the bravery and
skill whichdistinguished the founders of our
navy have not departed from their successors

Notwithstanding Gen. Buffers opinion to
the contrary, the Georgia Legislature have
come to the conclusion that they were not
entitled, under the Congressional enactment,
to two years more of legislative life. Attor-
ney Gen. Akuman hit the mark in his let
ter, when he said among other things:
Without discussing the question whether
the government of Georgia is provisional or
not, or when its provisional character ceased
or will cease. 1 will remind you of what
everybody knows, that the Constitution of
Georgia as framed by the Convention of 1867
IS, as ratified by the people of Georgia in
April, 1868, as approved by the Congress of
the United States In June, 1868, has been,
for all practical, legal and political purposes,
the fundamental State law ever since July,
1868. In that month Gov. Bullock was in
augurated under it, and swore to support it.
In that month a legislative body assembled
in Atlanta as the General Assembly under it,
and every member swore to support it. In
that month a Judiciary was appointed of
Judges who swore to support it, and ever
! since that time those Judges have officially
regarded il as the fundamental law of the
State. in subordina ton, of course, to the
Constitution, laws and treaties the United
States, and have been squsring the statutes
OF the State by 1t, and according as those
statutes were foundvto be warranted or un-
WARRANTED by it have declared them valid or
invalid, The same oath to support it has
been taken by every other official Of-the State
down to the humblest Constable who exc
cutes Magistrates precept. In the legis-
lative bodies measures have been supported
and opposed on the ground of agreement
or disagreement with it; and his Excelleney
the Governor has refused his assent to bills
which he deemed inconsistent with it. The
popular belief in the State has been in har-
mony with this official action. There is not
q man between the thirty fifth parallel of
north latitude and the State of Florida, who
has not for the two years supposed himself
to be living under that instrument as the
Constitution of his State. Have all the
officers and people of Georgia been labOring
under a stupendous mistake?

The great tempest in a teapot raised over
the alleged prosecutions of the colored cadet
at West Point, has very quietly simmered
down, the Committee having the matter I'M
der investigation reporting that the COM
plants made by the cadet were greatly ex-
aggerated. They say he was more or less
annoyed in several instances, but they add,
that the charge that from the time of going
into camp, the day preceding the writing of
the letter, not q moment had passed without
his being cursed and abused by his fellow
cadets, who were around his tent eursing and
swearing at him all night, is admitted to
have been only fguratively true, and from
the testimony of witnesses was greatly ex-
aggerated, it being proved that he was an
noyed not more than ten minutes, probably
by two cadets, since discharged for other
causes. The charge that the officers of the
Academy maltreated him, or acted towards
him in a manner at all different from their
demeanor toward the white cadets, is entirely
disproved. The colored cadet was =. hazed >
Just as all other plebeS were =. hazed, - and
have been from time immemOrial. They also
review the other allegations of the cadet, and
show that his complaints in regard to the
rigidness of his own examination, and his
treatment in the ranks at drill, were over
drawn, and dispose of the case by ordering
that Cadets Gilmore and Smith be severely
reprimanded by the Superintendent of the
Academy, and assure all concerned that
probably nothing of the nature complained of
will ever occur again.

There are several peculiarities about these
results, to which we desire to attract notice.
| OF course the reader will at once 5c@s--Sey
| with the fact that the receipts and expendi-
lures for the fiscal year last given exhibit the
most striking contrast. difference of over
| SIG, 000, 900 in the former over the latter.
But this contrast has been increasing ever
since 1866, when it first occurred, and is now
very remarkable. The reduction of the pub
lie expenditures is accountable for this, be-
ginning with the enormous aggregate of
expenditures for the year 1865. which was
followed by SO extraordinary a fall in those
of the next year, the retrenchment having
gone on steadily every year, under the reso-
lutte action of the national government and
of Congress.
The Republican party has been charged
with many things by it's opponents, but with
none more persistently than extravaganza.
Yet these figures show just the contrary. If
the Republicans were profuse in their expen-
ditures for war purposes when the emergency
came, and when meanness would have been
stupid, if not criminal, these figures prove
conclusively that they seized the first oppor-
tunity afforded by the return of peace TO re-
trench with the same vigorous hand. But
they have collected the revenues as they never
before were collected They, in fact, made
the government strong and efficient by their
policy, so that its influence is felt every

Whittemore, lately expelled from Congress
for selling cadetship, has published an ad-
dress to his constituents, formally withdraw
ing his name as a candidate for the Forty
Second Congress. He says:
Ihave nOdoubt Of my nomination or success
should | enter upon the campaign as a candi-
date. am not, however, a believer in the
idea that man once elected to Office has the
ownership of the office. All have right 20
aspire, and merit alone should decide the
question of choice. Seeing with regret the
discussions which have arisen in some parts
of the State, and feeling anxious for the most
complete triumph of the Republican party
in October next, L am willing to sacrifice, il
need be, personal advancement. And, as
there are some who wish to bestow their
compliments upon another, and the question
as to my admission, if elected, to the next
Congress, though there is no doubt in my
mind, might confuse my best and truest
friends or comfort and aid my weakest enc
mics, am, therefore, induced TO withdraw
my name from the candidacy for the Forty
Second Congress.

Many have feared that the influences of
the war would cause great fluctuations and
finally permanent depression of our secu-
rites Some supposed that with the out
break of hostilities our bonds would pour
back from Europe in such quantities as to
affect not only their own values but that of
everything else. So far the reverse seems to
be exactly the truth. With the rumors of
war all values abroad declined, our securities
less, however, than those of any of the con-
tinental governments. The tendency to in
vest in them is on the increase, and capital
lists hold them with greater tenacity than
ever before. OF course there viii be tempo
rary fluctuations as shrewd operators take
advantage of victories and defeats, but it is
already certain that the war will aid raf1ag
than injure our credit.
