THE FIRST BATTALION OF THE
'NATIoNAL GUARD" TO regulate the
Georgia election, turned out in Sa-
vannah on Thursday. The News
reports the event thus:
A number of ragged negroes idled
away yesterday afternoon on the
Louisville road, by drilling in mill
tary facings and filings. They were
about as dirty looking set of loafers
as could be picked in a days jour
ney, and had every appearance of
first-class chicken catchers.

THE WHOLE MATTER IN A NUT
SHELL.


We find the following in the
Chronicle and Sentinel of Wednes-
day. 1t covers the whole ground,
and deserves, and will receive the
hearty commentator of all men
who sincerely desire the overthrow
of Radicalism. The Chronicle says:
Now, as to the '.New Departure
Democracy" we hold and have held
that while we cannot accept their
platform, it is folly to fight them
should their opinions be in conso-
nance with those entertained by the
mass of the Northern Democrats
We cannot form third party, for
that would be worse than madness.
We cannot expect to take the lead,
crack our whips and make the
Northern Democrats fall in the rear,
for that would be both presumptious
and unreasonable. We must be
content for the present to be follow
ers and not leaders. The people Of
the South must go into the contest
determined to vote for the candid
ates of the Democratic party, even
if that party, in National Convention
assembled, should see fit to ignore
the 4th and 9Th amendments al
living, vital issues. 1t is all folly
for few papers in Georgia to be
seeking to create strife and dissen'
sions in the party at this time by
prcmaturely forcing the campaign
! What we want now is quiet and har.
mony in the party. The Northern
Democrats are our friends. We car
only hope for redemption through
them, and into their hands the plan
ming of the campaign for the defea
Of Radicalism mast be committed
! Should the Pendletons, Seymours
. Blairs, Brookses, Voorhees,, Hen
' bricks, Hoffmans, Humans, Cass
erlies, Blacks, and thousands 0
other good men and true at tn
D North, who are in favor of free gov
: eminent and constitutional liberty
c adopt a platform of principles, W
f would be willing to accept it-feeI
ing assured that they would not com
NIT the Southern people to an
policy or principles hostile to thei
Vt interest or self-respect.
II We hold that sound policy an
good judgment would dictate tia
; the discussion of national politics b
- the Southern press is premature
= and calculated to do more harm tina
u good. Georgia papers have bee
o pre-eminently conspicuous in thi
respect among their Southern cotem
n poraries. OF course we do not ques
o ton the right of any of our youn
Il and ardent contemporaries to pus
4 themselves into n heated controvel
!. sy. But we doubt its necessity
n There is time enough, too, to IT.
: the mettle of all before the race
Il over.
q We counsel forbearance, toleranc
o of opinion, and charity among a
e who honestly labor for the overthrow
a of Radicalism and It's infamou
\ frauds and corruptions. Thong
we of the South may not approve @
f al, the means by which the end is t
be accomplished, we will thank Co
when the news is proclaimed tha
, constitutional governments are again
restored to the South and the North

A man who lives on Oxford Plains has had so
many hens, chickens and turkeys stolen, that
he thinks o! organizing an "anti-steaing poul-
try club"
Rev. John R. Thurston of Newbuyport has
accepted call from the Congregational church
in Whitinsville, as successor to the late Rev L.
F. Clark, and will be installed on the goth of
April.
The Athol Transcript tells of fish dealer in
Pctersham who "came jogging into town on a
foggy Saturday afternoon with load of fresh
paddock, not only alive, but wagging their tails,
and even smiling cheerfully, notwithstanding
their change of condition" Let us all "smile
cheerfully."
A correspondent writes from Milford that in
every part of that town there is a stir: "Some
twenty or more stores will be erected the present

From Washington.
Especial DISPATCH TO THE WORCESTER SPY ]

ESPECIAL DlSPA1EH TO THE WORCESTER Sf1 IL
WASHINGTON, D. c., March 81, 1871.
CoLFAX.
Mr. Cofax is in Baltimore tonight delivering
an address to the young mems Christian asso
citation.
PERSONAL.
Mr.. Thurman, cf Ohio, made the best demo-
cratic speech in the senate in debate this after
noon. 1t was exceedingly able, and made con-
siderable impression in the senate. Mr.. Nye
was in his best vein in replying to Mr.. Thur
man.
THE HoCsE.
The house adjourned without show ing any
disposition to enter at all upon general legisla-
ton. The business before the house was the
currency printing bill, and the democrats gem
orally do not wish it to be considered this ses-
sion.
THE DISCUSSION.
The opinion is general that the debate on the
condition of the south must run for several days
in the senate, and then that body will consent
to final adjournment. 1t doesn't matter whether
this debate takes place on one of the caucus
committee.
DEFICIENCY BILL.
The senate is working up a big deficiency bill,
but the house will strip it of all but the neccs-
sary items. Mr.. Nye, Mr.. Pomeroy and other
senator's have got upon the bill private schemes,
which could never pass the house, as independ-
ent measures.
THE DEMOCRATIC MEMBERS.
When the three democrats from New Hamp-
shire take their seats in the house, and Mr.. Ed
wards of Arkansas is sworn in, as he will be in
day or two, the democrats will have one hun
bred members of the house. Mr.. Edwards is
called in Arkansas brindle-tail republican,
but the democrats claim him.
THE PRESIDENT ANXIOUS FOR AN ADJOURN
MENT.
1t is stated here, without contradiction, that
the president is anxious that congress shall adj
journ. He thinks that no good can come from
any further attempt to legislate for the south,
there is such division among republicans, and
an avowed purpose on the part Of the democrats
of the house to flibuster whenever kuklux
bill is brought up.
HOUSE ELECTION CASES.
The house committee on elections, this morn
ing, decided that the congressional election in
Tennessee last November was in accordance
with law. 1t also decided, that in the case of
Boes vs.. Edwards, of Arkansas, that Mr. Ed
wards, who came here with the certificate of
Governor Edwards, is entitled to be sworn in
and take the seat. The clerk of the house did
not place Mr. Edwards name on the list of
members, because, at the time he issued his GER
tifcate, Governor Clayton had been impeached.

New YORK, March 21.-Dr. Giles desires the
following contradiction of dispatch sent a few
days ago to be made public: 'The report con-

the funds of the Swedenborgian church in New
York, as an entire mistake Dr. Giles is not
the treasurer, and neither the treasurer nor DR..
Giles has absconded"

New YORK, March 21.-The national Fenian
convention, to decide upon the future action of
the order, assembled in this city to-day. Col
John A. Mahoney presided, and the Irish exiles
now in this city were admitted to seats, with the
privilege of speaking, but not of voting The
sessions were secret.
James Fisk, Jr., to-day returned, in compli-
ance with an order of the United States court,
all the furniture, books, papers and other prop
erty, which he removed from the office Of the
Union Pacific railroad company several months
since,
Rev, John W. Chadwick conducted the funer.
al services of William H Burleigh, at the Second
Unitarian church, Brooklyn, this afternoon.
Horace Greeley and Oliver Johnson were among
the pail bearers, and Wendell Phillips was in
the audience.

OF those attending the second term, the first

H. H. Thompson, and the third TO Charles Rose.
OF those attending the third term, the first prize
was given to F. N. Wilder, the second to H, A.
Desper and the third to j. g. Goes, Jr
The committee on awarding prizes, Messrs.
Phineas Ball, Horace Wyman and VIM. H. HOff-
man, in their report, speak of the drawings as
follows:
''The drawings were neat and carefully ar
ranged, showing an attention TO detail worthy
of remark. There was only one sample of free
hand presented, and this showed that ease, care,
and that evident selfpossession, which bespeaks
n creditable remark as an encouragement TO him
who produced it. On this subject of free-hand,
we understand that no lessons were given for
want of a competent teacher, whose services
could not be obtained. AT the next session of
the class il is to be hoped that the association
may be more fortunate than during the past
winter, and may be able to secure one who shall
be competent TO make amends for the past, by
handling successfully what is deemed to be a
very important part of drawing.
ave cannot conclude this report without eX-
pressing the satisfaction at the fidelity with
which it is evident that the arduous duties of
the instructors, Messrs. Chas. H. Burleigh and
| o. j. Pierce, have been performed. The success
obtained has been most marked, and the i'm
| pTovement such as well repays the efforts put
| forth by both instructors and pupils"
The committee closed the report by express
ing the hope, that in the future the apprentice
members may never do less in the matter OF the
cultivation of a branch of learning so necessary
to the success of the mechanic as that of draw
| ing.
The drama, "0ut to Nurse" was played with
the same marked success that attended its per-

1t is well known that in different parts of the
world, there are people who eat GARTH among
them are some of the natives of Java, who eat
a red kind Of earth as a luxury. This earth,
which is soft and smooth to the touch, has been
analysed by German chemist, who finds it
very rich in iron, with a small quantity of potassa
and soda. Some tribes eat earth to stay the
pangs of hunger by filing their stomachs, and
because at times they can get nothing better;
but the people in Java cat their earth baked in
thin cakes, as an agreeable variety in their gen
eral diet. The cakes, when slightly mostened,
are rich and unctuous, and the enjoyment in
eating is supposed to consist in the sensation
produced by fatty substance.
