The steamer General Sherman which
is expected tonight will take two com.
panies from this post to Fort a. Lincoln,
Com paniies F and G, 9th Infantry, are
those designated, and orders. have been
issued relieving them from duty here.
The following is the roster of officers with
these companies: Company G, Captain
H. S. Hawkins and Second lieutenant A.
L. Wagne1. Company F, First Lieuten-
ant R. H: Day and Second Lieutenant
Charles Byrne. 'I11t '2,s.t z.s.'

at present on temporary duty at Depart
.ment, Headquarters. 3"2 ~
. First Lieut. Bronson of G Company, it
is rumored, will soon be retired. This
would promote I'd Lieut.. r. r. Jacob to
the First Lieutenancy of Company G.
Seven years ago today the boys Of Co.
F pitched their tents in the bottom 1T the
landing, near this post, they having ar
rived with four other companies OF the
sixth the night previous. Company G
came few days later with headquarters.
p During these seven years some of the
most trying and arduous service that falls
to the lot Of soldiers has been performed
in this section of country, and, whether it
was in the winters snow or summer sun
shine, right well has this service been per
formed. Both Of these companies, with
one other, Captain Hawkins commanding,
formed the command that lefthere on the
Key West, Far West and Peninah in 1878,
to locate depot of supply on.the Yellow
stone for the Stanley expedition OF that
year. Capt Grant Marsh was the COM
modore of that fleet.
1t is useless and unnecessary to mention
the amount of heavy escort duty and
tramping around after Sitting Bull, all
over this section of country these and
other companies stationed herehave done.
But 1t is hard on the boys Willie they are
at it and then narrowing tho1ght-there
are no medals for this sort of 71tsrk.
Mr.. Mathews, at the Little Muddy, has
put in about fifty acres this season.
Forty acres Of oats, two of wheat, three Of
peas, two of, corn and two of potatoes.
Mathews has erected some fine buildings
at his place, and intends to- add improve:

OFFICIAL PAPER OF ALEXANDER COUNTY,
THE Courier,Journal says that during

THE Courier,Journal says that during
the next few weeks the Repub
lican organs will announce, as is their men,
daci0us habit, that the solid South" will
"demand,' when Congress meets, the sum
of $4,000, 100000 on account Of chicken
roosts and rail fences destroyed during the
war, and "human chattels" set free by the
emancipation proclamation. They will not
tell anybody how the Solid South" is 60
ing TO get $l3,0O0,0O0,OOO, out of the
Treasury, since the Treasury never contains
that amount of money by about $13,000,-
100000, and nobody except Republicans is
willing to vote any claim money Of the kind
referred to. Nevertheless the Republican
organs will 60 ahead with this Himalayan
he just as they do every year when Con-
gyess is about to assemble. Itmay be well,
under these circumstances, to repeat the
truth that since the Democrats got control
of the House, none of these Southern
claims" have been voted. During the ten
years previous to 1875, when the Republi-
cans had entire control of Congress and the
Treasury, they voted over S100,O00000
with the greatest alacrity to holders of al
legged "Southcm.claims." The Republican
party is the only party which has raided on
the Treasury to pay'alleged "reb5 claims.
Mark that. Also mark that the Democrats
not only refused to pay such claims, but
tried to get an act passed forbidding their
payment, and the Republicans voted against
it. The reason is obvious.

The Alton Democrat says; amidst all
the gas that is being lost by both the al
herents and opposers of the Sage Of Gram
mercy Park, the one in trying to help along
his boom, and the other in exulting over
his political death, it is well to blow aside
all this vapsr and calmly view the stu
alton. First what are the facts in the
casel As is known, Robinson was the
Tilden candidate and received all the
benefit from the old mans barl and schem-
ing abilities, and Kelley represented all
the opposition to Tilden within the Demo
cratic party of New York. The canvass
of Cornell, the Republican candidate, was
made by Conkiing one Of the most astute
political manipulators Of the present day.
1t can thus be presumed that full vote
was brought out and cannot be very
greatly exceeded by the vote next year.
Now, what was the result! Cornell was
elected 10y a plurality Of over forty thous-
and, and although the vote is somewhat
uncertain, it is safe to presume that most of
the Republicans are elected
What inference can be drawn frome these
factss 1t is that Kelley holds the balance
of power in New York, that as long as the
boss Of Tammany Hall clings to his opposi-
ton of Tilden, that statesman cannot control
his own State. We do not mean the thin,
vapid opposition that was seen at the st.
Louis Convention in '76, but the determined
resolution that slaughtered Robinson.
AS long as Tammany persists in
having Its own way. the
availability of Tlden as a presidential
candidate is under cloud. II is lament.
able spectacle, that Of great national
party governed by a herd Of corrupt ward
politicians, but the fact remains, and we
must trim our sails accordingly.
The Democratic nominee must be one
who can control both factions in New
York. We cannot afford to lose that State
and we can run no risk in trying to Obtain
il. The candidate must be one for WHOM
every Democrat in New York can vote, ONT

WASHINGTON LETTER.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 10th, 1879


There will be no distinction Of party in
General Grants reception in Washington.
A committee of one hundred citizens APP
pointed to make the preparations, is about
equally divided between the two parties.
Indeed parties so far as local affairs here
are concerned, are rather tradition than q
living fact, for we have not voted, even for
a common councilman, in the last five
years. 1t is hoped the General will be here
in time to attend the meeting Of the Army Of
the Cumberland on the Goth inst, when the
statue Of Gen. Thomas will be unyailed
An enormous crowd is expected.
The friends of Secretary Sherman in this
city do not believe his recent qualified re-
fusal TO become candidate for the Senate
represents his wishes, or that he will be
able TO withstand the pressure which will
be brought to bear on him in connection
with the nomination.
Not long since Ex-Governor Shepherd of
this city, representing heavy capitalists,
visited Mexico for the purpose, it was an
nounced, of examining into the value Of
mining property. II was not believed by
those who know the governor, that this was
his only purpose, or that he acted without
concert with others. 1t has been observed
here that money is plenty among the not
inconsiderGble class of adventures and
spectators, and others, including the hold

and how soothing is a word dictated
by q good disposition. 1t is sun
shine falling upon the heart. lie is
happy and the cares Of life arc for
gotten. A sweet temper has sooth-
ing influence over the minds of tho
whole family. Where it is found in
the wife and mother, you observe
kindness and love prcdominatine
over the natural feelings Of a bad
heart. Smiles, kind words, and looks
characterize the children, and peace
and love have their dwelling place
there. Study then, TO acquire and
retaina sweet temper. 1t is more
valuable than gold, and captivatcs
more than beauty, and to the close
Of life retains all its, powers.
