The Gazette says: Blue Jeans Williams
is being vigorously rebuked for his indecent
haste in promising the Morton senatorial
seat before its late owner was really dead.
Why not name the fellow henceforth
Jackal Williams7" 1t would be we'll if the
Gazette before Offering any suggestions,
would try and learn the truth or falsity
OF report. Gov. Williams did not
promise or intimate to any one who he
would appoint as Morton's successor be :
fore Morton died. The Washington dis
patch representing hrm as taking part in a
democratic caucus in that city, and dis
cussiug senatorial successor, was manu-
featured out of whole cloth by the Times
correspondent. The governor himself
characterized the dispatch as false in every
particular, and said that no such meeting
had any existence anywhere save in the
disordeTed brain Of the Times cores
pendent. He says further that the naming
OF any one as Senator Morton's successor
IS premature. as he has never signi6ed
who will be given the place, having strictly
kept his own counsel The governor said
that he had made it u rule Lever to admin
lister upon mans estate until he dies, and
he had relrained from talking upon the sub
ject at all times Gov. Williams SAID further
that the personal relations between the
senator and himself, while they were both
in Washington, were always friendly, aud
that respect for the senator and his family
would be sufficient consideration to pre-
vent any such precipitous and indecent
haste as had been attributed to him. In
addition to this, it was entirely foreign to
his own sense of self-respect. Will the
Gazette note this in justice to Blue
Jeans" and apologize for its unseemly
epithet2

The Nominee for the English n

The Nominee for the English Mission.
Mr.. Hayes nominee for our representa-
tive at the court Of St. James-Mr. John
Welsh, is native and resident Of Phila-
delphia, aged 70 years.
He is one of three sons of the late John
Welsh, an Englishman, who came to
Philadelphia 10 1856, and became one of
the leading merchants Of the Quaker city.
Mr.. Welsh for many years has been a
representative citizen outside of his bust
ness capacity, but although often urged to
accept Eigh position under the national
government, has always declined. During
President Grants first term his name was
urged for the secretaryship Of the treasury,
but Mr.. Welsh refused to leave his count
ing house.
MIR. Welsh was president Of the CON-
nilsson that in 1864 raised over a million
dollars in Philadelphia for the United
States sanitary commission. But he has
perhaps been best known for his connection
with the Centennial Exhibition.
Mr.. Welsh has travelled in Europe, Asia
aud Africa. He has made special study
Of political economy, is familiar with
finance in its large sense and is thoroughly
acquainted with the operation Of CONNER
cial and trade laws. He is q writer o
clearness and force on these subjects
Politically Mr.. Welsh was q wing wheI
that party existed, but now is republican
although always a man of broad and toler
ant views.
Mr.. Pierrepont has asked to be relieve
by the lst Of December and Mr.. Wells
will endeavOr to arrange his bushes
affairs so as to reach England by the latte
part OF November-it he is confirmed.

"a Bill TO Raise---'--s-in the" Army.
We most earnestly hope that the bill
introduced BY Senator Burnside, having
for its object the removing Of all restric-
tons now existing with regard to enlisting
and assigning colored recruits, will be
pigeon-holed in committee and never al
lowed to see daylight in the senate. Should
the bill become q law. the carrying out OF
its provisions would abolish the color
line" in assigning recruits to companies
and regiments, intermingling them, aud
forming a sort Of military amalgamation
which would tend to Decentralization in the
army. Senator Burnside, being an ex-
soldier, knows or ought 10 know as well as
anybody that an army, to be efficient,
must be as nearly as possible. unit in
feeling, and that every element Of antag-
onism should be carefully avoided. Had
he command Of division, a brigade OF
aregiment, or even a company, knowing
the prejudiceS Of soldiers. he would moi
care to have any such inharmonious ele'
ment forced among his men. The army il
simply a national police force-it is not &
political or philanthropic machine; and
whatever tends to increase its efficiency
should be encouraged; while the opposite
should be discouraged. Senator Burnsid,
has allowed his fanalicism to run away
with his good sense. His bill, if passed
win as certainly breed trouble as tina
sparks fly upward. If experience ha
shown that negroes make good soldiers
encourage their enhstment-when neces
sary. But at the present time, rathel
reduce than increase the army-it is large
enough for present emergencies. But
when it does become necessary to increase
the army, or ill up company quotas we d.
not object to enlistiDg colored men-bu
we emphatically object to assigning then
to white companies. If some white com
panies become depleted below the mini
mum, consolidate by transferring from
those above that figure, but for the sake
Of the efficiency of the army, keep black
and white soldiers in separate company
and regimental organizations.

BABBITT'S
TOILET SOAP
A Perfect Toilet Soap.

First among the requisites Of the toilet Is a good
article of Soap, but TO procure 1t s not always an
easy matter Many Of the most expensive Soaps in
the market are made from coarse and deleterious
materials, and their delicate coorng and fragrant
perfume too often conceal the most repulsive I'M
purities. The disclosures recently made pubic
regarding this ject positively startling, and
deserve serious consideration. Scented Soaps are
now known to be extremely Objectionable especial
ly If applied 10 the head injurng the hair irrita
ting the scalp, and inducing severe headaches. The
character of the Ingredients may be inferred from
the statement of gentlemen who makes the scent
ing of Soaps his business; he recently declared that
per- engaged in this employment were short
lived; from seven TO teR years being the longest
period during which the occupation could be fol-
lowed.
The difficulty of procuring perfectly pure arti-
Gle Of toilet soap is at last obviated, however,
thanks to the enterprise and chemical skill of Mr..
B. T. Rabbit, of New York, the world-renowned
Soap Manufacturer. whose immense establishment
is by Jar the greatest OF The kind in the United
States The renown of Mr.. Babbttts various pro-
auctions has for many years been widely dissem-
mated, but this latest success Is the appropriate
crown to the numerous victories already achieved.

ment. Mr. Bahbitt has succeeded in perfectinA the
composition of the firest toilet soap ever intro
ouced. The principal ingredients are the purest
vegetable oils; the manufacturing processes are
entirely and original, and the result is simply
unparalleled in this department OF industry.

GENERAL REMARKS The weather to-

The cotton adviees from Liverpool and New

for the higher qualities. of which there is
scarcity in offerings. The sales summed ND
$500 bales the market closing active and strong,
with an advance of NC on yesterdays prices.
The bad weather we have experienced for
several days past has served to reduce very ma
terially the receipts Of sugar. and to-day only
sas hhds came to hand. while the sales reached
1856 hhds. These small receipts and the unfavor-
able reports from the country have had the
effect of imparting somewhat improved tone
to the market and better qualities are firm and
in good demand.
The molasses market was frmer and higher.

Flour continues to flow In. IL we can use the
word, upon u.s. and the stock on hand to aceu
mulate, u large portion OF 1t being thrown out
of the market by the limitations imposed by
shippers, with no outlet in the shape Of an ex-
port demand. There is a moderate local trade.

Pork Is in better demand and there seems to
be somewhat better and stronger feeling in
the market at s1s U Dbl, dealers selling at s1s rs

From the circular, December &. of our friends.
Messrs Miller. Dolhonde Il Co.. we extract the
following:
From our private correspondent Mt Glasgow,
Scotland, In regard to the Clyde Sugar Mar
pressed and uncertain feeling prevails in all
departments Of trade and the values Of most
articles have declined. For months past there
have always been anticipations of improve
ment which perhaps came for o few days. to
sink again to b lower level Until some conf
dence IL inspired in trade. there is no chance
Of Improvement. and we must wait patiently
Turkish war the French crisis, etc. there is no
immediate prospect. Sugar retiners have
bought only to supply Immediate wants. and
several have been stopped rather than continue
to. work, under such disadvantages,'
Louisiana sugars IRE very low here indeed.
and we coll the particular attention OF the West
ern, Northern and Eastern refiners and the
trade generally, to these facts and at the close
of market here there is better feeling to ope-
rate, especially in clarified and otber dry grades
OF sugars. which may make markets react and
prices go higher soon. otherwise the Louisiana
planters will be compelled to stop shipping. and
withhold from present rulnous market prices
their productions. With peace in Europe. and
settlement OF the currency question In our
country. we could expect full confidence and q
large Improvement in all branches of trade and
manufactures. With peace in Europe the large
amount of Russian wheat would find markets
at once, and perhaps affect prices Of American
wheat. but with the opening of all those foreign
markets and the present low prices of hog

present prices of hogs. and sooner or later we
