It is Mot often that a Congress does mnch work before the reoesi, bnt U seems that the present ses sion is an exception. In the fioase most ot the Appro priation bills hare been reported, and four of them have passed and are now before tne Senate the argent deficiency, Military Acad amy, pensions, and fortifications bills. ; All of these witb the excep tion of the deficiency bill will be passed wJjth but little opposition or amendment. That bill is now being considered. .As it includes provisions for enforcing and collect, ing the lneome tax the friends of that measure insist upon its becom ing a law before the holiday recess. For a time it was supposed that the opponent of the income tax would oppose the appropriation, but they seem to have changed their tactics, they believe that the income tax is a bad law"; but that, inasmuch as the m'ejorityare responsible for itb enactment, they should be permit ted to enforce itthereby-making it,- as they claim, more ob noxious khan it is, as a mere? fprobabili ty i, The Repub -Qeaa-leadara assert" that all that is needed is the enforcement of the law. aa ta ffojctbS cvUectUHtax; ta.ahift upon,' the hack, p its Dem oeratie patty the last straw that will break the party i i the next eampatgn'f; Ihj-x; jj?'Yo? r ' On Monday, Deo. 17th, Mr. &pringer,'ohairman of the Commit tee on Banking and Currency, re poried the CliefeShiUo reform the currenoy system.

The bill will prob ably pass the House bat there is no prospect of its passing the Senate daring the present Congress. The Senate is now considering the Nicaragua Canal.

The - Boston Journal of Com meree, the chief organ of the tor tile industry in New England, has beesT InreitSgadng the Conditions of cotton manufacture iathe .south and gives- its roncTosiona as fol- fTh vanafaetnre ot coarse cot ton goods, and, in fact, goods made of yarn of medium counts, ean be made cheaper in tbe South than at any points in the North. "We hare for the last few weeks, been rerraeaTortBg ,to -obtain such facta aswe cooidln regard to this matter and fcre faUy ? convinced that white or, colored cotton goods, even inflated Haaucnaeaeasyf can be prod not d in the South, landed in our Northern markets ana sola at a price that will allow a small margin to the manufacturer, and this price is so low that our ' Northern' mills could hardly, trade a new dollar, for an old one' in manufacturing these gooda. . "There is but one conclusion ' to arrive at, which is, that the South has such advantages for the manu facture of coarse cotton goods, either In the: gray or colored. that it is no object for the North to un dertake to compete with it. The low pftce of labor, tbe long hours that the mills can run, low taxes aad aahght-saYingkaaae in buyiog eolfcoflf .are impediments, that Northern, mills find bard to over, eome: ----- J 'There ia but one course so far aa we can see for cotton mills in the- North to parsuer. and that is to get ready to make -finer goods." It ia very generally admitted that the South has advantages for the manufacture of eoorae ana me diant grades Of cotton fabrics which are'not to be found elsewhere, but why the limit placed on her pow ers! Where in iaany part of the globe better salted lor the making of the finer qaarfties of cotton goods than the Soetb f The answer to this question is ''Nothing !'' Here every necessary condition exists. Indeed the South holds the vantage ground.. The machinery required for he production jot floe cotton fabrics works better at the South than it does in the North. There is no stopping on . account of ex tremes of old and hea. Tbe tern perature remains even and machin ery does it woik with regularity and dispatch. If, then, it is assed, why more fine goo J s are not manufactured in the Sooth, it Is sot diffienlt to find a reply, "Cotton factories are in fant industries In the doatb. Usu ally they 'commence on a small capital, are onder the necessity ol nsinj cheap material, and are con sequently confined to the manufac tare of coarse goods. The finer fabrics require more expensive ma chlnery and a greater expenditure for labor. A cotton mill must get welt npon its feet before it can afford to employ fine machinery and skilled labor. Bat many mills ia the South have reached that point, and are turning cut goods equal to any.

A dudiah-lookiug party in along- tailed overcoat and tnrned-np trousers was picking his way gingerly over a muddy downtown crossing the other afternoon, when a rakish-looking party in a rain coat and rubber boots canght sight of him. The spectacle of a live walking dude appeals irresistibly to the average man's sense ot the ludi crous, au ! the rakish looking citizen, imita'iug tbe gnt and general bearing of the other, stalk ed along solemuly by his 6ide a block of two, in apparent uncon sciousness of tbe face that be was creating a sensation and attracting the amused attention of everybody ou the sidewalk. In going over another muddy crossing the rakish-lookiDg party, as if by accident, tripped the duke. The latter narrowly escaped a fall, land as h recovered himself he swnng his right. It landed square ly on the jar, and his tormentor went down as if a pile driver had struck him. You can ape me, djn't you know," he drawled, bnt baw Jove, you musn't monkey witb me!"

This action was taken directly against tbe advice of their lawyers, who tven now insist that they will try to get the appeal.

"We thought it was bet'er,'7 be said, "to serve out the terms at once. We will get through quicker and we think wc would certaiuly have them to serve in any case.''

The Party Hairgred Forty nine Mallards anil u Fat Raccoon An Invitation to Visit Charleston Respectful'y De clined by the President-One from Oeorjretown Accepted. Charleston, Dec.18. The News and Courier dispatched a special reporter to Gergetown last night to see the Piesideut and received tbe tullowiDg account touigbt ot the President'., first day's sport : ''As the. reporter for the News and Courier steamed op the special tug ro tbe buoy tender Wistaria, in Muddy I! iy, tbis afternoon at a qu irter to lour o'clock he was just 1 u time to see the President return ing from the day's bant in one of the Wistaria's naptba launches. Iu the launch wiih the Prtsident were Dr. O'Reilly, Oapt Evans, U. S N , and Mr. J.fferou. As the lauui h reached the fl tat at the boi tmn of the steps up the sidd of the Wistaria, the President rose laboriously trom his Feat and pulled oil' his overcoat while the boat was being made fast; alter which, with tbe assistnce of two of the partv, he stepped Irom the I much on the float. He cLmiied the steps unaid ed, nud did uot teem very lame, although it is learned from mem bers ot ibe crew and otheis ho have seen him, that his foot nd ankle are troubling him badly, the nilment tieiug rbeumatio gout. The P;esident was attired in a hunting suit of greyish brown corduroy, with dp to match, and high leatlrer leggings. Alter the President, the other gentlemen of tbe party went up the Mde, aud then tbe hands took oat the biuus aiid the result of the day's shoot, viz: A Urge raccoon, audi ben forty-nine ducks, chietly mallards. As soon as the launch got out of he way the News and Courier tag wenf alongside and the reporter was cordially received by the genial captain of tbe Wistaria, who said that although glad to see him, he could not yet allow him to come on board, as his orders were strictly not to allow one not connected with the vessel to come on board. In a lew monents a striking look ing gentleman limped to the side of the vessel, and with much courte sy, introduced himself, proving to be the famous "Fighting Bob Kvans,'' now commander of the New Y'ork. "The President directs me to say," he said, "that he is fatigued by the day's bnnting and is unable 10 receive you, and while appreciating highly the courtesy oi tbe invitation you bring to visit Cnarleston, that he is here only lor sporting purposes, and lor rest, and canu' t accept any invita tions.'' It waa ascertained from an officer on the boai' ihat the President bagged to-day in spite of the weather being mnch toe warm for ducks, twenty-nine ducks, and yesterday six. To the question who killed the coon, was no an swer except a burst ot smiles. After this there was nothing to do except to leave. As they pushed off a steam launch bringing a delegation from the Palmetto Club, to tender the President a reception, arrived and came alongside. The delegation, which was headed by the Hon. Mr. Morgan, Mayor of the city, was re ceived by Oapt. Evans, but not allowed to board the vessel. The committee handed over tbe gun wale a large horseshoe of exquisite white camelias, wishing the Preai ent good lack in his shooting. Capt. Eran8 politely declined for the President the tender of a reception, saying tht the citizens could see him at tbe depot on Sat urday as he was about to leave, and the committee left with very crestfallen countenances. In a few minutes, however, they were beck oued back to the side of the vessel and told by the Captain that tbe President consented to hold a re ception in Georgetown on Saturday at 2 o'clock before leaving for Washington, but begged that it would be short, as his lame foot made standing very painful to him. The reception is tj be held in the historic ball of the Winyah Indigo Society, where Washington held a receeption in 1792, since which time no President bad visited Georgetown. The Wistaria is lying about ten miles from Georgetown, iu Mudny bay, off the shore oi Friendticld plantation. The marsh lands are leased to the Annendle Hunting Club, of which Gen At xinder, whose guest the Prehi t- .l is, is member. These are said to be the best hunting grounds in the State, being vast marshes, intersected with innumerable creeks, all infest ed with ducks. A gentlemen who carried down the President's letters and tele grams and saw him, says that he expressed himself as delighted with bis trip, saying tnat he was enjoying himselt immeuBely, and felt already much benefitted by it. The party will remain here until four o'clock on Saturday, when he .-tart will be made for Washing ton. Georgetown is in a state of ex citement over the President's presence, and nothing else is talked of. THK PRESIDENT IN LUCK.

This has ueen an idea: day for duck sbootiug, The morniDg dawn ed with a brisk wind from the north, and the ky was overectet ; with leaden clouds, while the tem perature was not very tar above in- t'.eezmg point. The President, Capt. Evans and 31r. Jeljerson were up betimes and were away for tbe stands in tbe marsh before tbe eastern skies were turning grey. They had a fide day's sport, as tbe result of the shooting showed upon t heir return to the Wistaria at 4 o'clock this afternoon. They bag ged in all sixty large English ducks, more than half of which were brooght down by the Presi dent's gun. He is really enjoyin . himself hugely, is in excellent spirits nrid beginning to feel the beiu-ticial results from his rest and sporting. The entire progamme, which will be carried out, is as follows: The light tender Wistaria, with the Presidential party on board, will arrive in the city at 2 o'clock p. m., ou Saturday, landing at tbe South Carolina Btearopd&t oomp. puj's wharf. The committee will be in vaitiDg with carriages, and the party will be taken at once to tbe old historic Winyah Indigo society hall, when a public recep tion will be extended the President. The reception will last till about 3 o'clock. Immediately thereafter the President and party irill be served witb a light luncheon tendered by the Palmetto club. At 3:45 o'clock the party will be escorted to the Georgetown and Western depot, from which place the special train to which the private car, Wildwood, will be attached, will leave pro mp'ly at 4 o'clock. The ladies of the city are all actively engaged in the preparation of the decorations, and as the little city never does things by halves. she will on this day present a typi cal holiday appearance.

The new city directory gives the popu lation of Atlanta as 108,644. This count was obtained by a house to house canvas. Ten years ago the population was 56,857. In a decade it has practically doubled. If tbe present rate ol increase keeps up, the city will have 200,- uuu population in aoont nine years. Better Schools. Money put in school houses is money saved from penitentiaries The best way to lessen oar taxes is to pay more money for the intelli gence of the people. There is a style of economy which is tbe worst extravagance. Good schools tend toward empty almshouses. Know ledge lifts. Ignorance depresses. It is no rare thing to find educated scoundrelism, bnt to the vast majority ot the criminal classes the writing ot their own names is a difficult enterprise. When society knows more it will behave better. The newspaper column which discusses the school question should be read through by every citizen, patriot and Christian. Talmige.
