NEW YORK, April ct. b. bunting,

many victories over Guatemala, but they
were all on paper, and we knew nothing

same will be found to be the case now.
When Gen. Barrios dies Guatemala will

Republics Spite Defeats Lawton.

Considerable discussion took place
over the nomination of Alex. r. Lawton
to be Minister &c Russia. The committee
on foreign relations had reported adverse.
ly, the majority being OF opinion that,
although Gen. Lavton had received fuif
pardon and amnesty from President
johnson in February, 1867, yet by the
Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitu-
tion he was ineligible because his politi-
cal disabilities had not beon removed by
Congress. The committee reported this
as the only objection to the confirmation
of Gen. Lswton. In the Senate it was
contended by some Of Gen. Lawton's
friends that the form of oath prescribed
and taken by him when he entered the
military service of the United States did
not include the requirement to support
the Constitution" and that therefore he
did not incur political disabilities by
engaging in rebellion, and does not
therefore require any Act Of Congress to
enable him to hold the position Of Min.

The last message received by the Sen.

To the Senate Of the United States: I

was delivered 20 the Senate on March 80,
1885, of Alexander r. Lawton to be

The Star also says the President was
very much surprised and annoyed by the
action Of the Senate Committee in
reporting unfa.aIsbly upon the nomina.
ton Of Alexander r. Lavton as Minister
to Russia. and he withdrew the uomina.
ton to prevent unfavnrable action on 1t.
His fear that It might be rejected before
he could get O chance to withdraw it,
induced him to telegraph the Senate to
suspend action for while, then his
withdrawal followed as soon as possible.
The PRECEDENT and Secretary Bayard have
consulted with the Attorney General and
other excellent legal authorities, and are
of the opinion that President Johnson's
pardon removed oil of Lawtop's disabiii.

The paragraph which appeared in the
INTELLIGENcER last week, in reference
to the departure of Mr. G. E. Owens
from Pelzer, published by the local Ed
itor without intending to convey the i'm.
putation which the last part of the notice
contains. The facts as given TO us since
Mr. Ovens failure by parties from Pei.
zer put very different light upon the
transaction. 1t is simply, as we under.
stand, case in which an inexperienced
young man failed at merchandising.
During the period in which he was thus
engaged in business he contracted debts
which Mt the close he was unable to meet,
though he applied the assets from the
sale Of his stock TO the payment Of his
debts as far az they would go, and then,
feeling that it was neither to his nor to
his creditors interest to remain where he
could do nothing, left for q point at
which he expected to obtain employment
and be more successful in business. He
did not proclaim his departure, but his
uncle in Barnwell announces that he will
inform any person interested in the mat.
ter of bis whereabouts. Mr.. Ovens is o
young gentleman of education, and has
always commanded the confidence and
respect of those associated with him, and
the facts, as given US by those of his
neighbors acquainted with the circum.
stances, show that, while he has been
unfortunate, his leaving Pelzer was from
an over.sensitiveness about his CONNER.
cial failure, and not from any criminal
conduct. Indeed, as far as We have
heard there Is no charge of criminality in
the transaction against him, and We
mako this statement to remove any unfa.
vorable impression which the paragraph
Of last week may havo created.

The true history of General Grants

four o'clock In the morning the old
soldier suddenly gasped and presented all
the symptoms of the death struggle.

gave hin UP for good. Doctors Douglas
and Shrady held Q hurried consultation,
efter which Dr.. Shrady filed O hypoder.

the contents into the Generate arm.
The extreme pallor, 30 characteristic OF
death, gave way to healthful looking
flush and the dying soldier was given for
tho time new lease of life. Thia
promptitude ON tho part of DR.. Shrady
aaved the General and prolonged his life
90 az to enable him to sign some papers
of great moment to his family. It also
saved great figure In American history
TO his countrymen for at least come days
After the General had recovered he
pleasantly said to the surgeon who had
performed the signal service:

DR.. Newman was overjcyed at seeing
the General recover 30 rapidly, and
prayed fervently. The eyes Of the
ladies were suffused With tears, but they
ahowed great Joy whan they saw death

appointing power from the Governor
and place it on portion of tho people
contrary TO the Constitution. Governor
Thompson is right, in our opinion, in
this matter, as he usually is in all of the
questions submitted 10 him as Chief
Magistrate of South Carolina. While
courteous and considerate in all cases, he
is firm in adhering to what he considers
the duty of his office, and he reaches his
conclusions by forceful and practical
reasoning, which shows that his action is
not arbitrary, if it docs not agree with
what people frequently want. South
Carolina has raodel chief executive.
