The following is an extract from
the Washington correspondence Of
the Nashville American
Congress has been doing excep-
tionally good work the past fort
night, and has been dispOsing of
business at pace that presages q
reasonably early adjournment. The
appropriation bills are in excellent
shape, and Chairman Atkins and
his committee deserve the thanks
of the people for their hard and
honest work. Without the slight
est attempt at buncomb or splurge,
they have quietly kept at work,
have reduced the running expenses
of the government even below the
figures of the current year, and
eleven millions below the estimates,
have almost entirely avoided fric-
tiOn, and now the LIST of May finds
them with only two bills i'm their
hands and with thirteen-including
largest and hardest bills-either
passed or well under way. The
fortification bill and one deficiency
bill are laws. Three deficiency bills
onlyawait the Presidents signature.
The consular and diplomatic, the
Military Academy, and the naval
bills have passed both houses, are
i'm conference committees, and will
become laws in a very few days.
The postoffice, pension, and Indian
bills are through the House aud be
fore the Senate. The legislative,
executive and judicial bill is two
thirds passed. The army bill Is be-
fore the House, while only the sun
dry civil and regular deficiency
bills are still i'm the committee.
Truly, it is "A good record.

Thc Richcs of AIn.I.n.

An Alaska correspondent Of the
San Francisco Chronicle givesa very
flattering account Of the resources
Of that territory. The fisheries are
among the most prolific. As many
as 1000 salmon have often been
taken at one haul of the sein, some
of them weighing from 45 to 100
pounds apiece. Those caught at
Cooks inlet are said to be the lar
gest i'm the world. The quartz mines
eight miles from Sitka are highly
spoken Of. Already ten well-de-
fined ledges Of gold-bearing quartz
having been discovered and eight
mines located. These ledges have
been traced for three miles. A Rus
sian engineer gives as his opinion
that these lodges will average S32
per ton throughout. Experienced
miners confidently predict that
Alaska will ultimately yield more
precious metals than both CalifOr-
MIA and Nevada have. Coal, mar
BILE and galena abound In addition
to silver and gold.

A Fair View of the Next residon-
tiaI Nomination.


Tire Democracy cannot afford TO
go into the next Presidential con-
test handicappedswith a mere senti-
ment of gratitude. IL Mr.. Tilden
shall be their free choice i'm 1880,
let him be nominated by all means
if not, then let some one else be.
Parties cannot afford to recognize
the mere personal claims OF any
one. The Democracy did their
whole duty to Mr.. Tilden i'm 1876;
they exhausted the obligation be-
tween them and him. If there was
a failure of duty at all, we do not
say il was at Mr.. Tilden's door;
we only assert that il wasnOt at the
Democracy's. There Is no four
years old debt of gratitude resting
on the party i'm favor Of Mr.. Tilden,
or any other man, and IL will not
do to assert that all the conditions
of success centre i'm the late Demo-
cratic presidential candidate alone.
If Mr.. Tilden's friends desire To
present his name on its naked mcr-
its i'm 1880, it cannot be forbidden
them but If the Southern States,
with their large solid Democratic
vote, persistently object to him, and
bar his entry, it might be inviting
certain disaster TO disregard the
protest.

We think we venture nothing In
saying that there will be no split in
the Democratic party In Tennessee
over the debt question. The De-
mocracy of Tennessee has been re-
nOwned for the consistency Of it's

mortal, and we do not believe that
any question can arise which will
seriously disturb the even tenor Of
its way. Here and there have been
and perpetually viii be-cat-and-
dog scufiles between local pOliti-
clans, but they are only the surface
boils which indicate internal vigOr
mere conduits for tho passage Of

solidify the party at large and teach

THE New York Herald publishes
statement showing that I'm 1865
there were thirty thousand more
shoemakers in Massachusetts than
there are to-day, although the pro-
ducts Of that branch Of industry i'm
Massachusetts, exceed by the enOr-
nous amount of 81 100000 the pro-
duction of 1865. This extraordinary
increase of products with so great a
diminution, I'm the number OF hands
employed Is of course attributable
10 the extensive introduction of the
most approved labOr-saving ma
chinery, and by which Massachu-
sets commands TO a great extent
the markets of the world In tho

DIED.

Sheridan, Nebraska, June 29th 1878,
of quick consumption, Miss LORNA
May Bristol, aged 1Syears. The de-
ceased was the eldest daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. Irving Bristol. After an
illness of two weeks she departed
from this life of sorrows, to a life of
eternal happiness. Up to the time of
her recent illness her prospects for
usefulness and e long life of happy,
social, intellectual and moral inter-
course with her friends were as bright
in the anticipation as any of her ac-
quaintances.
The grief of her parents, the fami-
ly and her associates over her prema-
ture departure from this world of toll
and management TO life beyond the
grave, is poignant and severe. She
died true christian, her las. words
were prayer. Oh it seems as though
il cannot be that she is gone! One
that was our faithful friend and
schoOlmate ever since childhood we
that were always companions, studied
the same books, learned the same les
sous, and tOiled life's pathway togeth-
er. It is hard to part with beloved
friends, but we all must go sooner or
later TO that world of eternal life.
Only a few weeks since she, in life
and health, was enjoying the society
of her friends, but suddenly the bliss
ful cup is torn from lips, and now she
sleeps in the cold embrace of monster
death. There are many tender and
endearing associations wrapped up in
q record of eighteen years, which
should lead all who was intimate with
her to a higher life even in this world.
The departed, III ough young in years.
was beloved by all. Her name was as
familiar, with our people, as house
hold words. Her form and face will
be seen no more her voice heard no
more. Bat her memory will be pre-
ciOus and cherished. In that better
land-"Over There"-she will wait
and wait for the dear ones she left be-
low.
a deeply sympathizing eongrega-
ton attended the funeral services
and performed the last sad rites for
this beloved daughter and friend.
IN the midst OF life we are IN death"
Ger the warm heart-thrOb comes the icy
breath;
Our dearest friends in the dark grave are
hid,
In the silent gloom, meath the coffin Id.
Hear the veice from Heaven, Not dead,
but sleepeth,"
Look and rejoice, ye souls who weepeth.
