THAT is an interesting story going
the rounds by the papers. which
Chauncy Depew tells about bis con-
versation with Gen. Grant four
years ago. The most striking fact in
it is Andrew Johnson's proposition
to assemble q Congress of bis own In
Washington in 1865. to be composed
of Senators and Representatives from
the rebel States, with such members
from the North as might be willing
TO unite with them. johnson was con-
fdent that be could thus get together
members enough to organize one
House at least and if Grant would
help him be would be able to
establish this as the Congress
OF the country. But Grant refused,
and the scheme came TO nothing. An.
drew johnson as President Of the
United States exhibited many eccen-
tricities. but be was heart and soul .

THE agitation against the eighty

holder Of this deficient coin value who

cause he takes it at its face value, and
can only get rid of it at its intrinsic
worth. This constitutes its iniquity.

Winesap, Cumberland county, to
Perilla, White county, was killed
from ambush at the crossing of Clifty
Creek, about IA miles from Sparta.
A man named William Sapp was ar
rested on suspicion and given a pre-
liminary examination at Sparta on
Tuesday, but was released for want
Of sufficient evidence. Sapp has since
been arrested by the United States au-
thorities on the charge of obstructing
the mail by killing the carrier.
The murdered man was between %

peaceable citizen. The people OF
White county are very much aroused
over the murder, and no doubt every
means will be exhausted to bring the
guilty party to justice.

A Freak of the Storm,

Calhoun (Ga) Times.
Last Monday evening when storm
came up a negro tenant on Mr.. ID. NJ.
Durham's place had a calf tied with
a twenty-foOt rope to a tree in the field
to Craze. After the storm had passed
over, the negro went out to see about
his calf and found him PROSTATE, the
tree twisted off just above where the
rope was tied, and ring around the
tree deep enough for him to lay his
finger in. 1t is said that the ring
aroung the tree was made by the wind
taking the calf up and whirling it
round and round at the end of the
rope, while the other end made the
ring. On Tuesday morning the cali
was able to walk and is now all right.
No one saw the calf whirling round,
but there is no other way to account
for the ring.

The Chinese q uestion is growing
very bitter all over the Coast. By
the shrewdness of the Chinese and
the perfdy Of the United States
officials, nearly one thousand OF the
Mongolians are landing monthly in

being Struggled in through British
Columbia on the North and Mexico
on the South; the feeling that the
restriction law gave Of security
against further invasion is breaking
down, and in its stead there is swell
ing bitterness which is liable to
break into . consuming FIRE at any
time. It is servile labor which
both parties are committed to op-
pose, and We think the Government
should put forth new exertions TO
stop the inflowing tide. There il

LAND ROTTENNES.

The item few days ago regard
ing land rottenness in this State,
has called forth several inquiries
from parties who were anxious to
know whether the rottenness was in
the State or United States Land
Office.
In reply, We can state that it
does not necessarily exist in either;
any amount of fraudulent land
transactions can be made, and the
Land Office not responsible. The
Land Office can only be guided by
the afidayits presented to them in
ascertaining whether the land is
mineral or non mineral, agricultu-
raj or timber. If the affidavits are
fraudulent, they have no means of
knowing the fact. The item was
not intended in any way to reflect
upon the integrity of any one
either in the State or U. S. Land
Office.
