appeared, but was far from vindieating my father of the slanderous charge.
 l wrote again, enclosing postage for re- ply demanding the name of his authority. l received no reply.
 In the meantime I wrote to friend who was in Montgomery and requested him To look up the matter, as he could get the information from the Journal As there were no Journals published then, he went to the records, beginning at the fall ses- sion of 1865, and examined every page mi nutely from the beginning of that session to January, 1867, laboring nearly three days. He found in January, 1S67 where the bill was first introduced in the House by J. H. Bankhead and the original bill first introduced bore the name Of "Stonewall." This was referred to the committee on county boundries, and when the committee made its report J. H. Bank head moved to amend by substituting Jones for Stonewall The bill then went to a vote and was lost by 52 to 20.
 This vote was afterwards reconsidered and the original bill passed with the Bank head amendment by vote of 71 to g. and the name of E. P. Jones is not on the roll as recorded in the House journal. After receiving this information I remembered distinctly of hearing my father say he drafted the bill forming the new county and gave 1t the name of "StonHwall as Stonewall Jackson was a favorite of his, and he could not call it Jackson, as there already ore county in the State by that name.
 If the records had shown the vote of E. P. Jones for the bill, it certainly would not have been necessary for his vote when it carried by Il to g.
 The party from whom the reporter of the Age-Herald got his information must have been one of the regular descendants of Ananias or some political demagogue who. has lavishly indulged in all kinds of political corruption known to and in the annals of the latter day politician, whose conscience is so piercing, grinding and en- vfous at an unguarded moment gave vent to his feelings
 In slandering character as spotless as the unsettled snow, in order to justify his own corruption and misdeeds, he would like, no doubt, to hide behind a spotless character, if possible that has been dead for a fifth of a century.
 If 1 should be cowardly as not to re- sent the charge 1 ought to be branded as a cowardly puppy, not worthy the name of having father.
 l hope, MT. Editor, you will give publi- cation to this article, as your MT. Walker told me when in your office on September r he certainly would do so, he could not recall to memory the name of the par ty from whom he obtained his information. l would like the journals published in the counties of Fayette, Walker, Marion, La mar, Pickens and Tuscaloosa to publish same, the friends of my father in those counties were many. Besides, he was well known in his day throughout the State.
 Respectfully, JAMES B. JONES.

Uncle sam wiii Object

New York, October 29.-Any attempt on the part of Germany to establish coaling station in territory of Venezuela will be op- posed by the United States, says a Wash ington special to the Herald. Such action would be in violation of the principles of the Monroe doctrine
 A cable dispatch from Port au Spain has been received, confirming a rumor that the Venezuelan government is considering the advisability of leasing to Germany a port on the island of Margarita, and it has at tracted much attention.
 Germany is anxious to acquire sites for coalng stations in the Western Hemis- phere. It has been frequently reported that she was endeavoring to establish coaling station on the Brazil coast, but no negotia- tions have been entered into. Naval officers say that Germany could have only one ob- ject in establishing a naval station in the Western Hemisphere-to prepare for hos tilities against the United States
