National Republican. (Washington City (D.C.)) 1872-1888, 1879-12-23

TT appears that General GRANT re-
moined for ten minutes only" at one of
the public dinners given in his honor at
Philadelphia last week The report is that
five hundred guests were assembled to do
him homage" as the anti-GRANT press
phrases it, and that he merely put in an APP
perance, remaining just long enough to be
seen by them, and then incontinently abb
scnted himself Thereupon his Bourbon
detractors rise to remark that some one has
been snubbed, and that this man whom
they are wont TO say delights only in the

"A. G. b." has discovered, or pretends he
has that Senator DoN CAMERON is a states
man, capable political manager, an
effective executive leader, and all that sort
of thing A few months ago he was in the
habit of declaring that the Senator was
an hereditary bsrnacle fastened upon the
Republican party of Pennsylvania by vir-
tue of the mere strength of his fathers
name But "a. c. b." has possibly been
admonished that to make his "place" in the
Senate comfortable he had bottor begin to
tell the truth about Republican members
of that body. And he has mado good

adulation of his sycophantic admirers,p
has again proved himself to be unworthy
Of public respect. This Is sad, very sad !;
for it further appears that whatever he
does, whether he accepts or declines the
honors rendered to him, whether he cats or
does not eat the dinners to which he may
be invited, he fails to please the carping
Opposition. But, saddest thought of all,
perhaps, he docs not care to please them

WE are sorry for RANDALL. The GRANT
reception in Philadelphia was too much for
him, and he hied him to New York,
and there, in company with S. J. T., wept
over the " "obseques to American liberties ("
then being enacted in the Quaker city We
fear that the obsequies to the favorte Dem
ocratc ward the Fourth-in his own Con-
gressional district, to take place next fall,
will give him more real cause for mourning.

The Utica Herald, one of the very able
journals of the State of New York, has clad
itself in q new and exceedingly comely
Typographical dress for the holidays. The
Herald is q model journal-always able,
though not always, perhaps, infallible in
judgment in political discussion-but uni
formly frank, outspoken, honest and courte-
GUS in its uttcrances--qualities that com
mand universal respect in journalism. We
wish ii every possible success.

A Panther Also.

Not satisfied with having our timid citi-
zens frightened with the report of a yeritable
live bear ravaging the forests and prowling
around generally on the upper side of this
County, the report now comes that bruin
is to have an ally, i'll his war upon the ma
tives, in the shape of q ferocious panther, of
which our contemporary, the Greenville
Adrertiser, says:
We received information few days since
that genuine panther has been commit
ting depredations lately il the vicinity of
Piedmont, nine miles below Greenyille.
1t was first seen about three weeks ago, and
annoys the public by killing pigs, chickens,
&C., and frightening horses, cattle, &C., in
their pastures or stables. About ten days
ago it followed several women consid-
erable distance Oh account of some fresh
meat they were carrying. Several times it
has been shot at, but 50 far it has escaped.
People in the neighborhood are said to keep
pretty close in doors after sun-down, and
the presence of his partnership prevents
marauding expeditions by the colored gen,
try. At last accounts the animal had
crossed over into Anderson County.

4 Disease that Wrecks the System.

Every function is deranged, every nerve
unstrung, every muscle and fbro weakened
by fever and aguc. 1t is, in fact, disease
which if unchecked, eventually wrecks the
system. In all its types, in every phase, it
is dangerous, destructive. Stupor, delirium,
convulSionS, often attend it, and cause swift
dissolution. But when combatted with
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters its foothold in
the system is dislodgcd, and every vcstige
of it eradcated. That benign anti-febrile
specific and preventive OF the dreaded
scourge is recognized not only within our
own boundaries, but in tropic lands fur be-
vond them, where intcrmittents and remit
tents are fearfully prevalent, to be sure
antidote to the malarial poison and q relia-
bic means of overcoming disorders of the
stomach, liver and bowels, of which vitiu-
ted torrid atmosphere and brackish miasma-
tainted water are extremely provocative.
All emigrants and travellers should be sup
Dlicl with it.

fruit......Rev. ]. R. Riley will preach in the
Presbyterian Church next Sunday. Some
Of the farmers in this community COM
menced planting cotton on last Monday.
......Uncle Billy Palmer, whose great age
VIC mentioned recently, is quite ill, and lit
tie hope is entertained OF his recovery.
The Baptist Sunday School, under the eff
cient superintendent of Mr.. e. P. Earle,
grows steadily in numbers and interest. .....
School Commissioner Todd visited the
schools in this township this week.. Eff
orts are being made to institute lodge of
the Independent Order of Good Templars
at this place, and the undertaking promises
to be successful......A number of Fork
farmers in conversation the other day re-
called the fact that ten years ago they joint
ly cultivated only 81 acres, whereas the
area which they now cultivate is Al acres.
This circumstance is mentioned as fair sam
pie of the progress made by our farmers in

PRUSSIAN.

N1HIS CELEBRATED Thoroughbred
Il horse will make the season OF 1870 at
the stables of CARRIER e. McBEE, Grccll-
vile, S. c. Prussian was bred by Col. i.
B. z. Cash, Of Chesterfield, S. c., and the
following description by him will be all that
is necessary:
Prussan was sired by Gen. York, he by
Planet, and out of Albnc. The dam of
Prussian was bred by Wade Hampton, she
was sired by Glencoe and her dam by Priam.
The dam OF Prussian was full sister to the
famous race marc, Sallie Hampton. (See
Turf Register and Racing Calendar.) Every
drop Of blood that courses in Pruss;ans
veins is inherited from the best stock in
America, and regard him as the best horse
in the State. While OH the turf, Prussian
was remarkable for speed and repeating
power. At Wilmington, n. c., he made
lin mile heats the fifth mile in the time of
1:44t, and ran mile in Columbia, S. c.,
which was claimed by his friends to have
been the fastest time ever made in the world
on q I track. The last winter that run
Prussian, he won six races, and beat every
horse that he ran against. AS stock horse,
l can honestly say l have never seen better
one. His colts all resemble him and show
blood, and, as far as l know, are very rapid
trotters. L. B. G. CASH.

sl2O. Under the Nee bill it is only
ssO-only = now what it was in 1860.
AS to the loss of w. Va. we lost an
equivalent amornt of the debt and thus
that matter is even.
The old Funding Bill gave the consol
holders Sl2O0.OOO year and the Free
schools suffered. Under the McCulloch
Bill we bring this down to 5000 900 aud
TINS saves the Free Schools. Why your
Barbour Bill put the cost of the State
government at $500. 900 year and you
can't now say 1t is million. The Bar
oonr Bill provided some 100000 for
The debt while the McCulloch Bill
provides only s930.000 for it, thus
leaving over 100000 for the schools.
Now assert we will not only support
the schools aud the government and pay
Inc interest due on the debt under the
hcCul'och Bill, but we will have a large
surplus TO boot. Applause.
AS to Taylor, the Auditor, he is one
OF the best men eve knew and don't
question his statement. Applause. J
But here comes r. VI. +. Hunter and
supports the McCulloch Bill. lie is the
Treasurer and he sustains and endorses
the statements of the Auditor. Why
these creditors release half of all the ac-
crued and unpaid interest, Why YOU
take ont three per cent. every year and
take 1t ont in advance, while you and |
are taxed only half of one per cent. and
pay that on years time. When these
men bargain with us at 3 per cent. inter-
est, we bargain out the interest in adj
vance. Under the value of the bond
under the McCulloch bill they are taxed
six times as high as other property.
But the farmer is taxed and the bond
holder is not! Then why don't you sell
your farm and buy these bonds and be-
come bloaIed bondholders? Applause. =
The Supreme Court in New Jersey as
Wilson decided that if the government
makes deed in which it agrees never
to tax that land, it is an ir-repealable
contract Now then whena man gives
up $4,000 bond and takes 81 900 one
instead Off, in Gods name is not that
an irrepealable contract? But where
will the Agitators put you? If you re-
peal the consideration and security the
creditor had you must repeal the con-
cessions he made you and then where
are you? Why the reductions made
by the McCulloch bill are more than
equal to the war interest. The Allen
amendment is Il mere provision for the
securing the interest while the change
from one Funding Bill TO the other is
being made, for after all the debt has
been funded there will be no dcficcn-
cy ut all to provide for.
And now fellow citizens, | leave the
matter with you in the hope that you
will at the November election nuke
such disposition of this matter as will
finally and forever settle it and leave
Va. restored To credit and responsibility
and repute among the nations of the
earth.
