HAMILTON. April 10,

HAMILTON, April 10.
EDITOR JOURNAL:
AS Hamilton has been quiet In
your columns for some time, we
thought we would take 1t upon our
self to inform you and the readers of
your amiabIe paper how this part of
the county is iourishing.
The farmers are busy sowing wheat
and oats, and are rushing things on
sccount Of the lateness of the spring.
Our merchants are feeling finely.
Theodore West, our principal mer-
chant, has brought on a large, fine
stock Of spring goods, and having a
splendid trade. Also Miss Flora
Schnack and Miss Munsell are open
Ing out a nice new stock of millinery
goods.
There IL no great excitement OF any
kind, as it is we'll known that Ham
ilton is a quiet, unassuming little
place. 1t does not even allow itself
to get boisterous over the railroad
prospects through the township.
Although Hamilton and vicinity are
much interested in it, and have been
ever since it was first spoken Of.
Previous TO the voting OF the tax,
Hamilton and vicinity were as much
in favor of the railroad as they are
now, and they voted for it almost to
a man on the principle let it run
where it will so 1t passes through the
township. And / know men who
voted for the tax in this place and
said at that time they thought Marys
vile would get the railroad.
| merely speak Of this to show to
the readers Of the JOURNAL that
Hamilton is not as dead and unen-
terprisiDg as some imagine it to be.
And this is certain, it is not as selfish
in an enterprise that will benefit the
community at large, as a town we
can think Of not far distant from
here, which says: "Give us the rail-
road and we will give you the tax
and thousands of dollars besides.
But If you don't we will law you be-
fore we will pay the tax" Now we
don't blame this place we are think
ing Of for wanting the railroad and
working for it, but we do not like the
way the people in it have acted, both
previous TO the voting of the tax and
since. They said that they voted the
tax on the principle of let it run
where it will through the township,
and we will be satisfied. And Just rs
soon.as they found that it was not bad
going through their town they said
we will never pay the tax il we can
get out Of it. Their only reason be-
ing that it did not run through the
center of the township.
Now, Mr.. Editor, Hamilton has
not felt in this manner at any time,
and does not at the present, although
we do not know where the road will
go IL built, and if it is built, whether
through this place or not 80, it runs
through the township, Hamilton will
not law the tax, and il it should pass
through here ! have no doubt but
that Hamilton and vicinity will do
all its wealth will allow it to do in
addition to the tax for depot.

1t is reported by the Atlanta Herald that
General Joseph E. Johnston, the distiD-
gushed Confederate commander, mas &C.
cepted the position of commander-in.chiet
of the Egyptian army; that he will receive
a bonus of 500 COO and an annual salary of
US 900, and that he now accepts the post
after having repeatedly refused it. If this
report be true, the khedive has secured the
services of most accomplished and capable
soldier, and if victory should not favor his
cOlors in the wars he has to apprehend, it
will not be for the want of military talent
in his commander. General Johnston is not
only the ablest living soldier produced on
the Southern side ia our great war, bur, in
the opinion OF persons who have closely
studied the conflict, he is the ablest soldier
that appeared on the scene from first to last
in the support of the Southern cause, and
the only Southern General of great concep-
tions in strategy. No thoughtful Southerner
will ever be able to free his mind from pain
full Fl Elections of what might have been if
the conduct of the war had been thorough
ly in JOhnston's hands, and the North must
always rejoice that there was jeff Davis
to thwart him. With the many admirers
OF Johnston's talents as soldier, his char
acter also stands high, because he fought,
as he understood it, for his country and
freedom. Different views may be taken
now, as he seems to become mere soldier
of fortune in an Oriental service; but against
the antique prejudice on this point it tends
to become more and more recognized that
war is an inevitable fact in the progress of
nations from old to new conditions, and
that it is one of the more than human
economies to have it conducted on semitic
principles. There will, moreover, be no
wars there but such as his friends might
envy General Johnston the chance to assist
in, for the Khedive will do no fighting of
consequence till he is compelled to defend
against Turkey his own declaration of in
dependence.-Ner York Herald.

Yellow Fever in New y ork.

The New York Herald of the fifteenth saws:
The steamship Columbus, Captain Read,
from Havana. belonging to the Clyde line,
| came to anchor yesterday morning at the
lower quarantine. at seven O'Clock. Shortly
atterward she was boarded by Health
Officer DR.. Nanderpoel aud his deputies,
Drs. Mosher and Mccartney. While ex-
aiming into the health of the passengers
DR.. Vanderpool discovered that John Ryan,
assistant steward and two waters, were
indisposed and suffering from what might
possibly develop into yellow fever. The
doctor gave orders that they should be
removed by the quarantine tender Daniel
Mcclellan, under the charge of the super
intendent OF quarantine, Major Colville, to
Dix Island Hospital, where it is probable
that they will get we'll ere many days have
elapsed, the attack being of the lightest
kind The matter of their removal was
promptly attended to by Major Colvile.
The health of the port, owing to the strict
vigilance of the quarantine officials, has
been excellent, and it is unfortunate that,
as the summer quarantine season is drawing
to its end November ~, these trfling cases
should have developed. After consulta.
ton with his deputies by the health officer
it was decided to allow the passengers to
land. as the three sick mon had been kept
wholly apart from the rest of the crew since
their symptoms of sickness had manifested
themselves, aud, further that as all the
passengers were acclimated-viz not liable
t. any chance of contagion-there could be
NJ risk in allowing old residents in Cuba
t. come ashore. Before this was done DR..
Vanderpoel, assisted by his deputies made
a second searching investigation into the
co lditi n of health of all the passengers,
aud then consented to allow them to land,
feeling certain that in so doing there was no
possible chance of contagiou In addition
to this the ship was thoroughly fumigated.
The passengers. numbering some forty, were
then taken off in the quarantine steamer
Nelson j. Hopkins and brought to this CITY,
but not allowed to take their baggage with
them, not even the smallest valise. This
evening, however, they will be allowed to
receive it. Many ladies begged piteouslv to
be allowed 10 take their trunks with them,
but DR.. Vanderpoel was inflexible. The
Rev. Mr.. Kenny, Protestant minister at Ha-
vana. and several other passengers, refused
to leave the steamship, stating that they
would not go until they received their bag
gage end they will as above stated, have
to wait till this evening. The Columbus will
remain at Lower Quarantine till further

southern and Western Merchants in New


1t is significant fact that the country
merchants and buyers who now fill our no
tells from all parts of the country bring with
them very much more favorable accounts
of the condition of business il their respec-
tive localities than they receive in our city,
though NOS more so, it is to be hoped, than
they will take away with them. They all
report that business in their districts is
active; that the crops are abundant, and
that the planters and farmers are in a IA
vorable condition for supplying themselves
with the commodities of which they stand
so much in need. And they afford the best
possible evidence of their views by pur-
chasing with freedom and liberality that
affords assurance Of an active trade Just as
soon as the crops begin to move forward
freely. They alse report the interior banks
are well supplied with funds, and as being
able to make liberal advances tor the trans
portation of produce, in place of being de-
pendent. as heretofore, on Eastern capital.
In some districts the wheat is sprouting, in
others the cotton is suffering from excess of
heat or moisture, as the case may be, and in
others the caterpillars and the rain have
caused immense losses. But, notwithstand-
ing all drawbacks, the news from the in
terror by persons best qualified to know and
most capable Of giving an intelligent opin-
ion is hopeful and reassuring.-Nev York

The Republican Party and Capitalization


EDITOR REPUBLICAN:
The Republican party is charged with the
attempt at Capitalization. This is one of
the most bareiaced charges ever advanced
by the blind demagogue.ridden hydra,
headed monstrosity known as modern Dem
ocracy. Ninety nine hundredths of our in
telligent people know full we'll that the
Democrats themselves forced General Jack
son to proclaim the wal cry of their party to
be ito the victors belong the spols.' Jack
son went into the political campaign with
the strongest spirit Of Capitalization con-
trolling his followers. This political war
motto carried General jackson into the
White House. Here, then, we find the very
beginning of American Capitalization, So
much for the charge that the Republican
party is guilty of that offense.
Now for counter charge. The Demo.
cratic party must be charged with insane
conduct in bringing on the late war for the
utterly selfish purpose of permanently es
tablishing the hell-born project of human
slavery, thus engendering all our present
misery and stirring into life the furious
passions of whole nation.
The Democrats are the real oppressors,
for in their wild cry of Capitalization the
leaders force their followers to re-echo the
empty sound, until it has almost obtained
belief even among those whose education
and good sense might lead them to see
through this thin tallacy. 10.
