impression that, under the new law,
a PERSON must be registered to cntitlc
him to Vote At the primary election of
his purity. The Times. ReuieD says this
is a mistake. In addition to the polit-

Central Committee, he must be an

THE sHERMAN.DAyIs CONTROVERSY.

A correspondent recently asked General
Sherman whether or not he intended to re-
ply to certain structures made by the Cen
eral. Sherman replied that he might do so
at some future time, but he should consult
his own convenience; that Davis had not
addressed him, but the st Louis Republican,
and that if he made any reply it would only
be through the War Department. He fur
ther said that he did not suppose any re-
porter was at the meeting of the Frank
Blair Post on the night he spoke, as the
Grand Army is an organization only for the
social interchange of personal memories;
still he admitted that the reports published
contained much of the TRUTH but not ALL
He has most of his Louisiana papers, he
said, to make good his assertion that the
civil war was forced upon the people OF
Louisiana by conspirators in Washington,
and that during the progress of the rebel
lion Davis changed his views of the doctrine
of secession, and threatened to use force in
case any State of the Confederacy should
attempt what was then known as separate
State action" The General has already
sent to Washington some letters and papers
bearing on the case, but as to their publica-
ton he stated thar the authorities there
must be consulted.
1t having been suggested that Vance, of
North Carolinn, is the Senator referred to
by Sherman as having received the alleged
| letter from Mr.. Davis, that gentleman has
given letter to the press in which he says
that he never received a letter from Mr..
Davis containing such threats as those i'm
puted by General Sherman.
1t is said that Sherman has sent mes
senger to Washington to hunt up the letter,
and that if it cannot be found he says he
will make affidavit as to its substance, re-
iterating the truth of his former state
ment. The old gentleman's blood seems
| to be up.

CONGRESS-.
day, 1885.

The proceedings of Congress are devoid of
general interest. In the House, on Monday,
the Speaker appointed committee of one
from each State to attend the Executive
Mansion on Tuesday to witness the ceremo-
nies of opening the New Orleans EXposi-
ton. South Carolina was represented on the
committee by Mr.. Hemphill. a similar
committee from the Senate was also APP
pointed, Senator Butler being the represen-
tative of this State.
Mr.. Aiken, of South Carolina, from the
Committee on Agriculture, moved to sus-
pend the rules and pass the bill to establish
a Department of Agriculture. Blount, of
Georgia, Potter, of New York and Browne,
of Indiana, spoke in opposition to the mo-
ton, which was advocated by Wilson, of
Iowa, Aiken of South Carolina, Judd of
California, Hardeman, of Georgia and Cox,
of New York. The motion to suspend the
rules was agreed to, by yeas 166, nays 60.

THE NEW ORLEANS EXPOSITION.

The Worlds Cotton Exposition at New
Orleans was formally opened last Tuesday,
the programme heretofore published having
been generally carried out. 1t had been
suggested that the machinery in the Expo
sition should be put in motion by President
Arthur, who was invited to be present; !;
but rs his official duties prevented him
from leaving Washington at this time, ar
rangements were made by which he per-
formed by electricity the part assigned him.
Sitting in the Eastern Room of the White
House, by merely touching button he
gave motion to the pondcrous engines and
the innumerable pieces of machinery in a
city 1857 miles distant. This alone is a
grand achievement Of science, which would
have seemed an incredible feat twenty-five
years ago, but to this progressive age only
indicates the possibilities Of the future.
By associating the word cotton with this
Exposition its true character and import
ance is generally lost sight of, many persons
thinking it only display of cotton sam
pies. The Exposition takes its name from
the fact that it occursduring the year mark
ing the centennial of the first shipment OF
cotton from America to England; and so
far from being display Of cotton bales, it
bids fair to exceed any industrial exhibition
ever attempted in the United States or
Europe. The buildings are thus described
by correspondent who has paid the
grounds a visit:
1t is fact that you could put nearly the
entire buildings of Parisand Vienna, which
were devoted to their fairs, into the main
building of the New Orleans Exposition.
1t is about one-third larger than that of the
Centennialat Philadelphia. tbs by all odds
the largest edifce of which history gives
any account. The Coliseum at Rome, a struc-
ture which gave word to the world by
which to express magnitude, does not com
pass half as much space as this Exposition
at New Orleans. But of course this is not
as lofty and substantial as the Coliseum was.
Altogether, the Exposition will doubtless
prove one in which the United States may
we'll take pride.
