On the 18th instant General Sherman
in pursuance Of President Grants order
concerning the distribution of troops in
4 the South, transferred one company oil
1 infantry from Atlanta, Georgia, to Edge
lfeld c0uri-bouse, South Carolina, IN the
vicinity of the Hamburg massacre This
order, as was expected, has caused q
great howl TO 20 up from the Democracy
| bat it will not deter the President from
his determination TO afford protection to
unofe nding citizens. The President is
! determined TO have q fair election n the
the Southern States. at least he will use
all lawful means at his disposal to secure
such result, and he will be sustained ia
this effort by every loyal person in 'he
country There is no doubt il iali
election were possible, the Republica' S
would carry Louisiana, Mississippi, ani
South Carolina. We have large MAORI
ties in all three of those Southern States
ty actual count, and yet the Democracy
openly boasts that they will carry those
States by large majoritlee, which they
will certainly do if left uudisturbed IN
their work Of murder and Intimidation
1t is certaioiy to be hoped that the
National Government viii afford ample
protection to all voters irrespective OF
party, race, or color.
A. close scrutiny Of the Appropriation
Bills, passed by the House Of Represent
atives, in which Sam Randall claims to
have saved the country 100000 re-
veals the fact that while there is reduc-
tor Of $20,494,187 3S under last years
appropriations the actual saving TO the
Government is less than o9oe.7Dth Of that
sum. After the Deficiencies are made
up at the next session the reduction wilt
not be as great as In ose made by Republi-
can Congresses from year to year. In
fact it is probable that the embarrassed
and crippled condition IN which the
| Confederate Huuso PLACED the Govern
ment will resnltin actual expense instead
of saving. But this makes no difference
to the Democracy. Campaign thunder
was what they were after and they got it,
and still they were not happy.

To the Editor Of the Telegraph.

NY DEAR SIR.-I send you greeting
at last from the scene Of the great
shoW. It is speaking quite moderately
to say that things here are lively. The
most stolid plodder can hardly fail To
1experience a quickening of the nerves
as he approaches this Centennial city
Not only the buildings, towers, domes,
and portals of Paramount Park, but
the entire city with it's suburbs, is gay
with flags and streamers. In short
this staid, old fashioned Quaker
town is living all at Eonce in the
excitement, the blaze and blare
the noise and dust of long holiday
[ hear you ask, Will not these sober
drab-c coats tire Of so much worldly
tumult ? Far from it. They are too
wise. For never since time began did
great city receive such a large and
sudden accession of thrift as Phila-
delphia will reap from this Centannial
harvest field. The whole country and
all the countries will leave here the
ldroppings of their wealth. And the
| final result will be much more than q
mushroom enlargement.
The first thing that strikes the conner
to this Centennial display, is the gener-
al stupendousness Of preparations.
The hotels are stupendous, and-I was
going to say-the prices also. But this
snot universally true. One can live
here either oheaply OF extensively. So
far, they say, the high priced hotels, as
the Globe and the Transcontinental.
are losing money, while the cheaper,
as the Atlas, which can sleep 5000
people every night and charges only
$1,00 a bed, are coming fortune.
Yet this Atlas, which shows SO hugely
in paper cut. is a hasty-pudding
affair, very cheaply built, and will be
glad to sell out at the original cost of
pine lumber on the first morning after
the big fair is ended. Thousands of
respectable private houses are receiv-
ing guests at moderate rates. Therei
seems to be no prospect OF lack in thel
matter Of entertainment
You asked me, Mr.. Editor, to write
you, if could, pretty soon after getting
here i will do my best. Let me then
report that I have been here just oneI
day. And high day it has been. Asi
the boys say, L have seen the elephant. !
[ have even been clean through thel
shoW-that is to say, on the steam cars.
1t takes just twenty minutes to do it.
And the distance by rail is set down in
The guide-book at precisely 81 miles,
pronounce it the most magnificent |
ride in the world, and the most enjoya- |
able. You begin at the eastern end Of |
Jhe Main Hall, and dash past all the |
principal buildings of the Exhibition

INEBRIATEs THEIR TREATMENT.

INEBRIATES THEIR TREATMENT
DIR. N. S. Davis Journal Of Ner-
vous and Mental Diseases, January,
1876 recommends such alteration of
our system Of medical jurisprudence,
as that simple voluntary intoxica-
ton be recognized as misdemeanor
subjecting the offender to arrest
and proper punishment, and habitual
INVESTIGATIONS or confirmed drunken
ness dangerous disability. subject
ing the party convicted of the same
to legal detention and discipline in a
public asylum or institution eatab-
lished for that purpose. This course
would not only result in restoring O.
large proportion of the victims Of
inebriation to sobriety and useful
ness, but it would do more to create
in the public mind, among all classes
of society,a correct idea Of the nature
and tendencies Of Intoxicating drinks
than could be accomplished in any
other way. Instead of continuing the
erroneous belief among the young
and laboring classes that alcoholic
drinks are restorative, and in moderate
quantities beneficial, and that con-
vivial spree now and then a harmless
indulgence, it would practically
nd indissolu bly, connect
the use Of intoxicants with the idea
Of physical and mental impairment,
social degradation and final disable
ity-a result which would be In
strict accordance with the truths of
science and interests of humanity.

Governor Morgan helpedto carry New

JENNA BROW N.

BY LAURA z. RICHARDS.
Bring her here, my little Alice
Poor emma Brown
Make the little cradle ready,
Softly lay her down.
Once she lived, in ease and comfort,
Slept on couch of down;
Now upon the floor she's lying
Poor Gemima Brown
Once she was lovely dolly,
Rosy-cheeked and fair
With her eyes of brightest azure,
And her golden hair.
Now, alas no hairs remaining
On her poor old crown;
And the crown itself is broken
Poor Jemima Brown
Once her legs were smooth and comely
And her nose was straight;
And that arm. now hanging lonely,
Had methinks, mate.
All, she was as finely dressed as
Any doll in town;
Now she's old forlorn and ragged
Poor Jemima Brown
Yet be kind to her, my Alice F!
Ills nc fault of hers
Ii her Willful little mistress
Other dolls prefers.
Did she pull her pretty hair out =:
Did she break her crown?
Did she tear her arms and legs off?
Poor Jemima Brown
Little hands that did the mischief
You must do your best
Now TO give the poor old dolly
Comfortable rest.
So We'll make the cradle ready,
And We'll lay her down;
And we'll ask papa to mend her
Poor Jermima Brown?

River Junction on Wednesday August
10, to nominate a Congressman and q
district Elector. The caucuses for tho
election OF delegates will be held uni
formly throughout tho district on Satur-
day, the 18th day Of August, at four
o'clock Pm.
Unfortunately there have existed In
the district Tor some time the elements OF
discord, which four years ago and again
two years ago broke out into open revolt,
and led In both cases to much bitterness
on the part of the contestants. Blows
were given and received and it Is contra
~ to human nature TO suppose that no
sears remain or that the spirit OF chris
tian forgiveness and charity has fully re-
covered its sway. Nevertheless, we he
levc that better feeling exists than
formerly and It rests with the convention
of the 10th OF August to determine wheth-
er this feeling shall be fostered and made
predominant to the obliteratiun of all
differences and u complete restoration to
harmony. We confidently look to 1t to
deliberate calmly and act wisely and IN
such n manner as to put an end to all
internal strife.
The causes that led to division in our
ranks are matters of the past and 1t can
serve no good purpose to discuss or in
dulge in comments that may revive them.
We ought to go into the canvass with a
determination to subordinate all minor
issues to the grand object Of throwing
an overwhelming vote in September for
the Republican ticket, in order that YER
mont may give an uncertain sound in
opening The fall campaign. The eyes OF
the country are upon her, and the Repub-
Leans everywhere look to her Tor encour-
agement.
How shall the desired harmony be OBJ
tainedp We answer, by the re-nomina-
ton and reelection Of Hon. Dudley T..
Denison. Mr.. Denison is good and
true Republican of ability and ire:
proachable character. lie has served
his district faithfully and creditably in
all matters of legislation, and has never
been absent from his post. Recognizing
the fact that buncome speeches, made for
effect at home by those who were more
anxious for denomination than to perform
II labourious duty, have really no weight
in the House, he has confined himself to
the ''weightier matters" of COMPRESSION
al service, in acquainting himself with
men and measures, in serving the vari-
ed interests of his constituents and in fit
ting himself for increased usefulness in
the future. No representative of the dis
trict who desired it has ever been refus-
ed denomination and we believe no &C.
casion exists for denying him the usual
coul tesy. On the other hand the inter-
ests of the party and of the public will be
best subserved by according to him what
his friends ask, hearty and unanimous
denomination.
