There are many reasons for believing that Mir. Featherston will be put in possession of Mir Gates seat in the National House of Representative as the representative of the first Aakan- sas district. One of our specials from Washington is to this effect. and it is plain to be seen that the temper of the republican majority is Tn the direction of that sort oi procedure, aided by the hitherto unheard of rulings by Speaker Reed. Cate was elected by majority of over 1900 over Featherstom, who. it will be remembered, was the Labor candidate, bat pretended to be as good a democrat as Cate, If he succeeds the people hereahout will wait impa- tientlv for Featherston' votes and speeches, curious to see in what way he will repay the republicans for de- feating the will of the people of the first district.

In Prison I'm Georgia.

From Lieut.. w. III. Skeletons narra-
tive In the Century, We quote the fol-
lowing:
Before passing the gate (of the
prison for Union officers at Macon)
we expected 10 see n crowd bearing
some outward semblance OF respecta-
bility. Instead, we were instantly
surrounded by several hundred rag
ged, bare-footed. frowzy-headed men
shouting Fresh fishr' at the top OF
their voices and eagerly asking for
news. With rare exceptions all were
shabbily dressed. There was, however,
a little knot OF naval officers. who
had been captured in the narrow
windings OF the Rappahannock by a
force OF cavalry. and who were the
aristocrats OF the camp. They were
housed in substantial fair-building
in the center OF the grounds. and by
some special terms OF surrender must
have brought their complete wardrobes
along. On hot days they appeared
in spotless white duck, which they
were permitted TO send outside 10 DO
Numbered. Their mess was abund-
antly supplied with the fruits and veg
etables OF tho season. The ripe red
tomatoes they were daily seen TO peel
were the envy OF the camp. ] we'll re-
member that TO me, at this time, II
favorite occupation was TO lie on my
back with closed eyes and imagine the
dinner would order II | were in n
first-class hotel. 1t was no unusual
thing to see dlgnilied colonel wash
ing his lower clothes in pail. clad
only in his uniform dress-coat. Ladies
appeared on the guard-walk outside

casions the cloanest aud best-dressed
men turned out 20 sec and be seen. |
was quito proud to appear IN clean
gray shirt, spotless white drawers.
and moccasins made OF blue overcoat
cloth.
.'On the Fourth OF July. after the
regular morning count. we repaired TO
the big central building and held. an
Informal celebration. One officer had
brought into captivity, concealed on
his person. little silk national flag,
which was carried up into tho cross
beams OF the building, and tho sight
OF IL created the widest enthusiasm.
We cheered the flag and applaudcd
the patriotic speeches until detach-
ment OF the guard succeeded in putting
stop TO our proceedings. They tried
TO capture the flag. but in this they
were not successful. We were in
formed that cannon were planted com
manding the camp. and would be
opened on us II we renewed our de-
monstrations.

The following. written by the editor
OF Southern paper will be read with
interest: Several OF our exchanges
are discussing with various opinions
the bloodiest battle in history. It
is recorded that Grant in one hour
lost 10, 600 killed and wounded at
Cold Harbor, but he had nearly 100, :
900 TO lose that number from-ten per
cent. In sixty minutes. General Hood,
just before sunset, November 30th.
1864, moved about 10000 Confeder-
ates. all told. against the strong breast
works at Franklin, Tenn, where his
casualties were reported 6.S00-or
about so per cent. in twenty-five min
utes.
AT Franklin the Union soldiers
were intrenched TO the chin. A half
dozen forts belched their thunder
from as many hill-tops--long lines OF
abattis and cheveaux de frlse impeded
every assault-all around the works
shrapnel and grape swept down the
Confederate ranks from fiery embras-
ures as our rapidly thinning ranks
advanced through an open field AT
shoulder arms.
The casualties of this little army
may be estimated when IL is stated
that the Confedcrates lost thirteen
generals. killed, wounded and miss
ing. Down this red valley OF death
rode no drawer soldier than General
George w. Gordon--the youngest
brigadier In our western army. We
can see him in fancy now, as we saw
him then for the first time. mounted on
fiery sieed, his long hair swept
back by the breath OF battle, as he
rode into that maelstrom OF iron hail.
He went over tho works and was
captured. There fell. his breast
pierced through. tho invincible Pat
Cleburne, the idol of his division ms
well as OF his state. General John
Adams and his horse fell dead together
across the enemy's breastworks. Gem
eral Thomas NJ. Scott was endorsed
by the explosion OF a she'll.

The Decentralization Flag.
When we from thee, oh. fatherland,
Did sunder ties OF heart aud hand,
There rlunk for you g0odly part
OF love In every Germans heart.
For who could leave his early home.
Aud wander forth the earth To roam.
Without pang within bis breast,
Fen ill the soul seeks final rest.
But when the voice OF freedom spoke
And Germans fled oppresslon's yoke,
The starry banner beckoned high
Beneath this far-of arching sky.
Twas then We wood with honest pride
The red, white. blue. this patriots bride,
From now until eternity
We love this land OF liberty.
As erst from mist that swept the sea
Arose this land, Atlantis. free,
Through sunny rays that banlshcd night
Like magic rose TO free mems right;
And In bold, solemn grandeur waved
This nag which threats OF despots brayed.
This flag which, lofty and sublime,
Protects tile just from every cline.
The German here found home and friends,
No tyrant dared TO stretch his hands
Across the sen TO reach this shore
For fEcedomr sons, no. neyermorel
The shackles fell FROM hand and mind
Where'er you waved above our kind,
Our flag that shields the worlds oppressed.
The flag that stirs each loyal breast.
Free men, though born OH German soil,
We harcd strong arms for you In toll,
In fruitful fields, In art and war.
We swore allegiance eyermore.
We stand beneath your magic folds
Till death shall part what earth now holds
For freedoms banner high, sublime
Wen stand until the close Of time.

that he was a genius in that line, with
hardly a living rival. In the recesses

open TO suspicion. Strive as hard as he
may, he can neve entirely regain his
footing. The people are onto him, and
propose to get caught again.
