Placed on tbp H onse calendar. Mr. Bicknell, of Indians, called up the r-*oiuiiou proposing a joint rule for count ing the electoral vote. Mr. Speer, of Georgia, asked Mr. Bicknell to yield to him to call up the contested elec tion case of Yeatis vs. Martin. Mr. Field, of Massachusetts, hoped the gentleman would not do that. Tae report in that case tad just been printed and the Hou'e should be allowed two or three day* to examine it. After some time spent, in a vain attempt to arrive at some determination in reference to the time to be consumed in the debate, Mr Speer gave notice that he would call up the election case to-morrow arttr the morning hour. Mr. Coob, of Indiana, from the Commit tee on Appropriations, reported the District of Columbia appropriation bill, which was ordered printed and recommitted. Mr. Bicknell then ilem*n.led the previous question oa Mr. Morgan’s electoral resolu tion. Mr. Conger, of Michigan, raised the ques tion of consideration in favor of Mr Field. The vote by yeas and Days resulted—yeas 130, nays 124—in favor of takiog up the electoral resolution, ibis was a strict party vote, except that Messrs. Felton, Speer and Stephens, of Georgia, voted in the neg ative with the Republicans. Of the Ortenbackers, Ladd and Stevenson voted In the affirmative, and Jones, Lowe, Russell of North Carolina, Murch, Gillette, Weaver and Yocum in the nega live. Mr. Bicknell again demauded the previous question. Mr. Conger moved a call of the House. The Speaker ruled that the motion was not in order, stnee the last vote taken showed more thau a quorum present. Mr. Conger appealed from the decision of the Chair. Mr. Blount moved to lay the appeal on the tab>. The Republicans then abstained from voting and left the House without a quo rum. This of course comp-lied another call of the House. In this way the R-pub licans continued to filibuster uctil four o’clock. After half a dozen roll calls the House found iUeir in exactly the same sit u ation in which it had been three hours pre viously, or, as Mr. Reagar, of Texas! expressed it, the House merely went up a bill and then came down ac&in. The tactics ot the Republican side were to answer to their names os a call of the Hou.se, but to remain silent npon a motion to table the appeal, thus leaving the House without a quotum or forcing a call of the House. At 4:45 a motion to ad journ was defeated —yeas 127, nays 120. Another call of the House was ordered, and then, at 5:10, the House adjourned. SENATE PROCEEDINGS. In the Senate, Mr. Ingalls submitted a resolution as follows: “That the Senate will be ready to receive ihe House of Represen tatives in the Senate chamber on Wednes day, February 8, at 12 o’clock m for the purpose of being present at the opening and counting of the votes for President and Vice President of the United -tales; that two persons be appointed tellers on the part of the Senate to mske a list of votes for Presi dent and Vice -President of the United States as they shall be declared; that the result shall be r silvered to the President of the Smate, who shall announce the state of the vote, which shall be entered on the journal®, end if it shall appear that a choice has been made agreeatdy to the Constitution such entry on the journals shall be deemed a sufficient declaration thereof.” Mr. Whyte objected to the present con sideration of the resolution, and it was laid over and ordered printed. Bills were introduced and referred as fol lows: By Mr. Morgan—To extend the postal ser vice to foreign countries. Referred to the Committee on Post, Offices and Pcs R tads. Ev Mr. Call —For the improvement of certain rivers and harbors in the State of Florida. Tabled and ordered printed. Mr. Call forwarded to the Clerk the cre dentials of his colleague, Charles W. Jones, elected for the term commencing March 4, 1881, which were read and filed. The Indian land in severalty bill was then taken np and discussed at some length, but at 4:35 the Senate, without action on it, went into executive session, and when the doors were reopened adjourned. THE FODINU BILL. The Senate Finance Committee this morn ing gave an extended hearing to the Comp troller of the Currency iu opposition to the fifth section of the funding btU. HU argu ments were mainly directed against the pro posed repeal of section 4 of the act of June 20, 1874, nd the re-enactment of sections 5158 and 5160 of the Revised Statutes con cerning the surrender of circulating notes and deposits of bonds as security for ciiculation and deposits. His con ference with the committee today also included in IU range varlou questions in regard to the earnings, profits on circula tion and dividends of national banks, and their right to issue and retire circulating notes at their pleasure. The committee ad journed without a day, but the Chairman will probably call another special meeting to continue the consideration of the fund diDg bill in advance of next Tuesday’s regu lar weekly session. NOMINATIONS. The President sent the following nomina tions to the Senate to day: Stanley Matthews, of Ohio, to be Associate Justice of the United SUtes Supreme Court vice Justice Swayne re-lgned; Macbl Martin to be Sur veyor General of Florida. IMPROVEMENT OP THE MISSISSIPPI The Hou®e Committee on Commerce voted to-day to make an appropriation for the Mississippi river improvements, and for a reservoir system, leaving the amount to be determined after other items of the river and harbor bill have been fixed.

The Case of Hatch vs. The Consoli dated Companies— Continuation of the Arguments of Counsel. New York, January 26.—Arguments in the suit of Rufus Ha’ch against the West ern Union and other telegraph eompanies to prevent their consolidation were re sumed this afternoon. General Wager Bwayne continued his argument. He said the whole proposition of the defondanU was that their action was con sistent with law and consistent with a Epecific sUtute expressly directing this act. Tnere was positively no showing that a monopoly would tie established by this agreement. The plaintiffs asked on Ibis sole averment to declare this act Illegal. If there was proof shown to the court that a monopoly was to be estab lish’d, the principles of law were plain and peremptory. It was suggested by the counsel for the other 6lde, that the agreement did not conform to the law, because it appeared from the agreement that a part of the assets to be transferred from the stock were leased to be transferred from cerUin lines. Now, the sUtnte says that a telegraph company can sell any of iU property, fianchises or privileges under the laws of this SUte, and can also purchase property, franchises or privileges of any other telegraph company. Mr. Wheeler, counsel for the Atlantic and Pacific Telegraph Company, followed with his argument. Ha said it was shown that holders of seventy-seven thousand out of one hundred thousand shares of his company were in favor of consolidation, and, further, that creditors to the amount of $500,000 had consented to the measure. A,TURCOMAN DEFEAT. Tlie Russians Storm and Capture Geok-Tepe. London, January 26.—A St. Petersburg dispatch to Reuter’s Telt-grain Company this evening says: “The report has reached hero that General Skobeloff’a forcea have stormed Ueok Tepe. There are no details ol the action.” London, January 26, 6 r. M. General Skobel. ff telegraphs from Geok-Tepe on the 24th instant, announcing that the Russians on that day captured Geok-Tepe and Gergil- Tepe, after nine hours of desperate fighting, and that the Turcomans are in full retreat. Their loss, he says, was enormous. Gen. Skobeloff telegraphs further from (feok-Tepe as follows: “The Tekke Turco mans were pursued and cut down for a dis tance of fifteen versts. Our victory is com plete. We captured a quantity of arms, ammunition and provisions. Our loss ia now being ascertained. Our troops fought he roically.” THE PRUSSIAN DIET. The Roman Cathollea and the 3lay Laws. Berlin, January 26.—The lower House of the Prussian Diet to-day discussed the reso lution introduced on the 14th inst. by Herr Windhorst, leader of the Catholic party, declaring that the administration of sacra ments and the celebration of mass are not subject to the penal clauses of the laws of 1873, 1874 and 1875. Herr Puttkamer, Minister of Ecclesiastical Affairs, opposed the resolution, and shewed that in consequence of the recent ameliora tion of the May laws only three per cent, of the parishes of Prussia are now without curates. The government, he said, was ex tremely desirous of peace, but constant attacks by Catholics on the laws of the coun try were not the way to attain it. Debate on Herr Wlndborst’s resolution lasted five hours and a half. Ultimately the second reading was appointed for Thursday. All speakers, except those of the Centre party and one secessionist, opposed the resolution. CHICAGO LAND LEAGUERS Hoot and Assault the mayor for Re fusing to Officially Indorse tbelr Objects. Chicago, January 26.—Mayor Harrison last night addressed two Land League mass meetings. After speaking warmly in favor oftheobjeets of the League at the 17tb ward meetlug, he excused himself in order to do the same at West Twelfth street, Turner Hall. When he had con cluded his second speech, his audience passed strong Land League reso lutions, and before he could escape,demand ed that he should sign and forward them to Dublin in his official capacity. He refused, add a wild scene ensued, during which the Mayor was hooted and finally hustled out of the hall. Election of Senators. Nashville, January 26.—The twenty ninth ballot in the 'Senatorial election stood es follows: Bite 43, Muse 1, Geo. W. Jones 2. Maynard 40. Harrison 5, James 1, Rose 1, W. M. Smith 2, John H. Murray 1, Dorsey Thomas 1, L. E. W’right 1; neces sary to a choice 50. On the thirtieth ballot Howell E Jackson, a S’ate Credit Demo crat, was elected to the United States Sen ate. The thirtieth ballot for Senator stood Jackson 70, Maynard 25, Rose 1. As soon as Jackson was declared elected he was lifted out of his seat and escorted to the stand, where he said he would do whatever lay iu bis power to allay all sectional agita tion and bring prosperi y to the country. He would not, only represent the State, but the United Slates in the broadest sense of the word. Chicago, January 26 —A special dispatch to the Journal from Madison, Wls., says Hon. Philetus Sawyer was to-day formally chosen by the Joint Convention of the Legislature t,o succeed Hon. Angus Came ron in the United Btates Senate. Trenton, N J January 26—The Legis lature, In joint session to day, declared Wm J. Bewail elected Senator for six years from the 4th of March next. The Kingston (NT. Y.) Freeman tells a curious story of an ornithological jambo ree which took place there a clay or two ago. A local entomologist having on his hands several bottles of insects preserved in spirits, for which he had no further use, emptied them upon the ash heap in his back yard. No sooner had he emptied the bugs than the sparrows lit all over the heap in a perfect cloud, swallowed the bu£p, and ia about ten minutes were drunk—drunk as men get—and cut up the ssme idiotic capers. They fought in free fights of half a dozen, a dozen and iu fifties, and suddenly half of one party would break oil from their fight and dash into some of the other fracases. Almost all the nests were pulled down and the whole colony was in a state of anarchy and the direst confusion. The whole drunk was over in half an hour, but that short time served to allow the cats to slaughter over fifty of tho sparrows, whose combative qualities and forgetful ness had brought them too near to the ground. Not a sparrow has been seen in that neighborhood since. A Quarrel About a Cat.— ln New Yoik, on the 21st, Dr. Charles E. Brown- Bequard, son of the well known physi cian of that name, was arraigned before a police magistrate to answer the charge of stealing a cat from Patrick J. Kelly, who keeps a saloon on Broadway. The animal was valued at $25, and the alle gation is that defendant took it away with him after visiting the premises. The latter admitted playing with the cat, hut say 6 when he reached the door “it jumped out of his arms, and he has not seen it 6ince." Kelly, per contra, gaid the doctor was seen in the street with the animal, and he could bring wit nesses to prove it. In order to give him an opportunity to do so the court ad journed the examination, defendant meanwhile going on his parole. On Sat urday the defendant appeared and pro duced the cat, saying he had found it at his home, though protesting his ignor ance of how it got there. The charge was then withdrawn.

THE BRITISH PARLIAMENT DISCUSSION OF THE COERCION BILL. The Opponents of the Pleasure Op posing Its Consideration Step by Step—A Division Taken at 2p. as.— Precedence to be Given Hr. Fors ter’s Protection Bill. London, January 26.—The House of Com mons is still in session at 4:15 o’clock this morning. London, January 26, 2 p. m.—The House of Commons was still sitting st 1 o’clock this afternoon. The discussion is practi cally confined to the Irish members, who are repeatedly called to order, but the debate Is good humored. The Right Hon. Lyon Playfair, the Deputy Speaker, has relieved the Speaker. Premier Gladstone re-entered the House at twenty minutes past 10 o’clock a. m. and was loudly cheered. The Right Hon. M. E. Forster, Chief Sec tary for Ireland, has been absent four hours during the night. The conservative leaders are also wo-king by relays. Mr. Gladstone, about one o’clock p. m., declared that he cannot accept the compro mise, hut if the vote be now taken on the main question, the adjourned debate on Mr. Forster’s bills would be resumed to-morrow, to days sitting having virtually gone. Later.—The House of Commons is still sitting. At half-past leu o'clock this morning repeated motions for adjournment were moved by the Home Rulers, who are suc cessfully resisted by the government, with the assistance of the Conservatives, which early in the evening was promised by Blr Stafford Northcote, the Conservative leader, amid loud cheers from both s!d s. Mr. Parnell arrived in the House shortly after ten o’clock this morning, and waa en thusiastically received by bis supporters. It is imposs ble to tell how long the straggle will continue.

Jacksonville, January 26.— The train this morning brought additional visitors to the State fair, also military companies from Lake City and Madison. Other companies are expected this afternoon, and to-morrow the prize drill will take place. At night a grand ball will be given by the Jacksonville military In honor of the visiting companies. Exhibits for toe fair continue to arrive, and the vegetable, fruit and poultry displays are very creditable. The weather is delight ful for the races this afternoon, and the managers are cheerful. A number of promi nent citizens from different sections of the State are In the city.

Jacksonville, January 25. -This is the day set apart Tor the opening of Ihe State Fair near this city, but the unprecedented bad weather of the past three days caused a doubt iu the minds of many whether there would be a fair at all, or not. The officers met yesterday and 1 consulted with each other as to what was the I best course to persue in the premises, and j wiih one accord they resolved to have the ex j hibition, rain or shine. i Preparations for a week or mare hare been going on to accommodate the exhibits and the visitors, and to-day we hive once again the j glorious sun, shin tag beautifully above our I muddy streets and roads, and all feel more hopeful now than at any time since Friday, i when the dark and threatening weather set in. The air is pure, but quite cool for Florida. arriving. A large number of exhibits are on tlie erround j and more arriving by every steamer and train. Some of as fine race stock has arrived as ever j dashed over a Southern course, aud the races promise to baa grand feature of the fair. Much attention h s been given to the track and horses by those interested. As I write, carriages laden with the weaitliy Northerners, wagou.” loaded with exhibits and other freight j are passing down the street to the fair grounds. To-day there is much confusion I iK)th in the city and on the grounds, occasioned bv the rush of visitors into the city, and the j efforts of the officers and attendants of the fair to get everything in place aud properly j registered. CAPABLE OFFICIILS. The whole exhibition is in the hands of com petent men, who know no such word as fail, and if success can be attained by any directors and managers, il will be done by the live, pro gressive men in charge of the State Fair now being held near this city. POURING IN. The rush of people to our city to attend the fair and escape the chilling north winds of Ne w England is equal to that of tho last State Fair. The hotels are fast filling up, aud soon a room in ihe garret will only be had at a good price. The managers of the hotels are all cheerful, and strive to accommodate and please all who come. The Windsor, just open ed. under the management of Mr. F. H. Orvis, has been considerably enlarged and improved since list winter, and now can be saidio be one of the best hotels in the South. HOTELS OPENED. The hotels are all now open and each one presents a busy bustling scene. The rattle of busses, baggage wagons, etc can be heard at all hours, day and night, going to and fro from hotels to steamers and depots. The wretched weather does not seem to stop the tide of Northern visitors in the least. AMUSEMENTS. As usual, at this season of the year, our city is thronged with shows, theatres, humbugs, etc all bent on furnisiung fun for our people at a small price. It is enough to convince ihe stranger that New York is not the only place where such things exist. The Berger Family I gave their first performance last evening at i Metropolitan Hall, to a fair audience, despite the rain and muddy streets. All seemed well pleased with this family and their acting, nd critics pronouuce it very good. The Phan tom troupe is here aud has been here for a week. Their performances have not been very liberally patronized. The hall where they hold forth is not suit ably arranged for such exhibi tions, and rather uncomfortable this cool damp weather. 1 here are several other exhibitions in full blast, but I have not time to speak of i them separately just now. I must not, how ever, forget to tell your readers that BILL AHP waa here yesterday, and lectured at Ocean Street Presbyterian Church (Northern) last evening to a fair audience of our best citizens. The large church doubtless would have been packed had it not been raiuiug all day and night. This distinguished Georgia humorist delivered his popular lecture “Dixie Now and Dixie Then,’’ wnich was received with out bursts of laughter. His reference to the South and ii* oppression after the war, and the pres ent condi 1 ion of the negro, was not exactly the idea of the Northern fanatics, many of whom are here, but nevertheless every word was true. Strange to say, many of our visi tors here from the North are yet unwillfog to admit that anything was or is wrong that has been done by men of their section since the surrender at Appomattox. Oil, no, it is the "rebels” who are to blame for ail the ills that afflicted the South after the surrender. Bill put ii some solid shots as well as much non sense and wit. He left to-day for up the Bt. John's liver, where, ruuior says, he will pur chase an orange grove. He will returu to the city Thursday, aud those who failed to hear him fast evening are anxious to have him repeat his lecture, lie met many old acquaintances here, whom he had not seen tor a number of years, and to tho unacquainted he could have passed off as au old citizen of Jack sonville. Bill is a brick. the MAIL®. If ihere ever was a country punished by de layed mails, irregular mails, no mails at all. it is Florida just now. Our business men curse and tear tneir hair daily on account of these annoyances, which have existed for several weeks. If the train arrives on time (a very rare occurrence) the mails have misled connec tion somewhere between here and New York, or the route agent failed to bring it through. Were it not for the News and the Union we would all here be groping in darkness ns to the doings of the outside world. OIIANQES. This golden fruit seems to have suffered much more from the cold than was at first supposed There is nothing like the shipments being made as were before the cold snap three weeks ago. There are many offering “un frosted” oranges for sale, but The buyer ia afraid to touch them heavy. Many claim that their groves and fruit are unharmed, and that the pri es paid are better than before the j cold spell, which is to be hoped, is correct. THE HUGHES-GREELEY AFFAIR. Ycur renders have before this rrobably heard f the ruffianly attack ot one W. H. Hughes upon Mr. J. C. Gree ley, of this city, last Wednesday night. It appears t hat during the late political campaign Mr. Greeley loaned Hughes some money, or cashed a check at his bank for him, which afterwards led to hharrest under the charge of obtaining under false pretenses. This indictment was quashed in the Circuit Court, and *r. Greeley had liugher re-arrested upon a similar charge, whereupon Hughes brutally assaulted Mr. Greeley for this action, inflicting severe and painful wounds bv his flst upon Greeley's face, from which be has I not yet recovered, being still confined to his bed. Hughes was promptly arrested, and upon a failure to give bonds, was committed ti jail, where he is at present This man Hughes is one of Conover's importations from 1 Washington, a brother-in-law of Landaulot Williams. He has been a willing too] in the j hand* of the stalwarts ever since his arrival here last fall, but even the friends whom he j had during the campaign seem to have gone back on hln in this hour of hi* sore distress, as none were willing to go his bail for a few hundred dollars to save him from a felon's cel. I Mr. Greeley is in no wise Hughes' rqualasa 1 pugilist,and is a quiet,Christian gentleman The i affair caused much ta k and some rather ill- I tempered threat*. An attempt to take Hughes ont of jail under a writ of habeas corpus will i be made this afternoon. the courts. The United States Court is still grinding a way, j and is likely to continue the baianco of the 1 year, if we may Judge the future by the past and present. Over a hundrel and fifty hull t- i ment* have been found by ihe grand jury agains’ parties for violating the election laws. 1 No cna s have been tried yet, but when this I machine of oppression does get to going there is no teliiag who may be made to suffer. The j defeated Radical party iu thi* State have no i other source whereby to gratify th> ir revengt, end yon may be sure It is only white Demo- era's that are to bo prosecuted, as has always I beeu the custom in this court All that Is re- i qoisite to obtain an indictment in this court is some vagabond negro's affidavit, purchasable at fifty cents per dozen. “THE SUN AND PRESS." Th'a Radical sheet, the office of which was 1 recently closed by the Sheriff, appears to be i dead, beyond hope ot resurrection.

Our streets are now adorned with a street railroad, which will be iu operation by the 10th of February. Work day, night and Sunday is done on it to hasten its completion. The Way cross road lias a Urge number of hands at work on it. The recent unfavoi-able weather has greatly retarded the progress of grading. The heavy reins have washed the embankments considerably, though there is no let up to the work, and before many weeks we hope to hear the whistle of the first passen ger train from Savannah over this road The road from Jacksonville to Fernandina is expected to be finished by the 20th proximo, and trains running over it. The bad weather has also greatly hindered the work on this road. MASONIC. The Grand Lodge of Mason’, recently iu ses sion in this city, were a fine looking body of men, representing every section of the Mtate.

LETTER FROM KINGSLEY, FLA. Opening: of a Public Tlioronghlare Gives an Impetus to Improvements Correcting a Number of misstate* ments—A Lime Kfln to be Erected at Temple’s Mills -Fair for Hie Beat At of tbe Order of Red Reit— Bsldvrlu In a Bad Way. Kingsley, January 21.—Editor Morning Iyews; The opening up ot a pub'ic thorough- I fare between Kingsley and Temple’s Mills on the Transit Railroad, has given quite an im petus to improvements at the former place, and new vitality seems to have taken hold of I the people. I On the 3d instant there appeared in the Sun j day Times, of Chicago, an article signed by “E. P. h.," in which it is inferred that i Kingsley is subject to malarial fevers. Nothing could be more incorrect, as not a single case of malaria his occurred here at any time in the knowledge of the oldest in habitant. On the contrary, Kingsley boasts of being in as healthy a locality as there is on the globs. “K. P. H. also says that mosquitos, sandflies, etc., are terrible pests This is like the other. In three years’ residence I have not seen a sandfly, and mosquitoes do not trouble us at all. He also says that our lumber, pro visions, etc., have to be hauled from ten to twelve miles over bad roads. Nothing could j be farther from the troth, as we have a good i store here that sells goods cheaper than !on the line of the railway at the post office address of "K. P. H.” ihe distance i from here to the Transit Railroad is five miles i and to Starke six miles. The tram road run ning from Temple’s Mills to this place delivers I lumber at fiom $3 to 50 per 1,000 feet, and other freights at equally low rates. If “E.P.H.’' would hare waited until he could have learned i from actual experience, instead of having been the mouthpiece of others, I do not believe he would have been so ready to try to buil t up his place by destroy ing others. This is sufficient to answer aii his other statements, and when j two years instead of as many months have j passed away the learned doc'or will be ready to admit that his place is not all of Florida, j and that the article referred to was ill-timed and incorrect. The lime burner (Mr. Thompson), spoken of In our last, has arrived at Temple e Mills, and, after a thorough examination of the rock, is highly satisfied with it and is qu.te sanguine of success. A first class kiln will be erected at on e at Temple’s Mills, and in a short time lime can he had in any quantity. Mr. Thompson is a burner of thirty years experience, and knows whereof he speaks. The burning of lime in our midst will supply a long felt want, and alto increase the value of our lands largely. The Gceola Tribe of Improved Order cf Red Men of Florida, will have a fair at their wig wam on the 24th instant, the proceeds to lie used in building anew wigwam. This tribe has now a memoersriip of fifty-five, and has already largely benefited the pale faces as well as their own members. Their new wigwam j wiil be a handsome edifice, aud an ornament to the town of Starke. Eaidwin teems to have gotten in a bad way, or rather to have a bad repute at pressiit. Northern tourists are almost afraid to pass through there, by reason of reports! a refer ence to sharpers, etc., infesting the place. It is to be hoped the authorities will look the mat ter up and blot out the stain that gamblers and sharps can opsnly ply their vocations in our land of flowers. W. Lake Mr. Garter’s Snnff. There are mean men in this world, men j who would ruiu another’s chance of earn- j ing a livelihood just for a joke. Mr. j Garter is the victim of one of these men. j Mr. Garter is a dealer in catarrh snuff, which he {Middles about iu boxes. The, snuff is a compound perfectly pleasant to take and very efficacious. Tito other day Mr. Garter called upon I Squire Ink, the lawyer, who is very j irascible, and is a gicat sufferer from catarrh. He urged inquire Ink to try the J snuff, assured him that one application j gave instant relief, and that it was so pleasant to take that one would never I know that he had tried it. After repeat ed assurance on this last point Squire Ink consented to test ihe mixture, and Mr. Garter produced a box and said, “Take 1 a very large pinch.” The box had been tampered with by some fiend, who had filled it with red pepper. Squire Ink obeyed: he took an enormous pinch of it; then he sneezed, j It wasn’t a single sneeze,but a succession j of awful “achoos,” that seemed of suf- fleient violence to yank Squire Ink’s j head off. Tears flowed from his eyes; and when he would check the thing for j a moment, it was only that it might commence again with redoubled power. Garter waa awfully shocked. He pat ted Ink’s back and said: “I never knew-it to affect any one so before. I can take quantities of it. See here And then he went at it. “Autchaka- i choo ca choo caelioo-cochoo choo chooi” And then the same thing over again. There they both 6tood and sneezed uu- j til they had almost loosened their hair at i the roots, and felt as though they had been through a threshing machine. Squire Ink was the first to get able to i speak. “What the devil does this mean, sir?” he yelled. “I cacachoo-I don’t know—ca-j cboooo I” replied Garter. “Don’t know! Damme, sir, I’ll teach you to practice your infernal arts on me,” i and he grabbed Garter and hurled him from the window, and then he siezed the I snuff, jumped out-, and forced Garter to i inhale a lot more of it. Then he left the uuhappy Garter, and three policemen who came along picke i him up. But he sneezed so that they couldn’t hold him; and when, after he had partly calmed down, j they got him into a drug store, j he sneezed six bottles off the shelf. And the next day, while he was in bed at the hospital, he got notice from Ink that he was sued for $60,000 damages. i The yield of last year’s vintage in I France amounted only to 29,600,000 hectolitres (about 783,000,000 gallons), which is 2,000,000 hectolitres under ihe average of the last ten years. The yield of 1879, however, was still smaller— namely, 25.700 000 hectolitres. The im ports, which before had never reacned 1.000 000 hectolitres, consexuently rose to 3,000.000 hectolitres in 1879, and j 6,400,000 hectolitres last year, exclusive j of the month of December", for which the returns have not yet beeu made up. Of j this quantity Spain contributed more than 4,000,000 hectolitres. Shaving becomes a luxury whan indulged j in daily with Cuticura Shaving Soap. ESTABLISHED 1850. FLORIDA LEGISLATURE.

Contest Irons Dural—Contrast Be> tween tbe Antagonists—Justice ol the Democrats—Committee Sent to tbo Convict Camps Protect tbe Poor Vagrant Cara—Don’t Barn tbe Woods. Tallahassee, January 25.—1n the case of the contest from Duval county, between Gree ley, Independent Republican, and Lee, a Eeiu lar, the Senate Committee on Privileges mi J Elections reported in favor of the latter, who received the certificate. Senator Lee is of unmixed African parentage, and his lnflu j ence is confined entirely to those of his own race. 31 r. Greeley is a Saxon of considerabb wealth, a prominent cit'zen of Jacksonville, and received not only the support of all the white Republican?, but ahso the votes of most of the Democrats of Duvai county. It will be i remembered that the Democrats of Duval, at i the late electloo, did not make a nomination for the Legislature. A mass of evidence was taken by the con- I testant, and his case was ably presente 1 to the i committee by a competent attorney. The committee carefully and patiently sifted all j the testimony, consuming several days in the investigation, and unanimously presented the following report, which was aaop-ed: Senate Chamber. I Tallahassee, January 81, 1881. Eton. L. W.Bethel, President of the Senate Si a—The Committee on Privileges and Elec i tions, to whom was referred the case of J. C. j Greeley, contestant, vs. J. EL Lee, contestee, i from the Eighteenth Senatorial district of Florida, ask leave to submit the following re- I port in the above stated case: Your committee, after a careful inveatiga- I tion or the evidence upon intimidation, this being the ground upon which the contestant rested his case, is of the unanimous opinion that there were acts of intimidation on tbe part of some of the supporters of the contestee: and j that there were cases of threats and menace; but tbe testimony is so vague, indefinite and unsatisfactory, that your corn mittee can oome to no definite conclusion j ts to the number of voters affected thereby. To s /stain the chargeof intimidation, evidence I should have been introduced showing that the result was materially affected, or that by rea son of such intimidation the true vote could not be ascertained with certainty. See Mc i CVery on Elections, p. 354, section 416; Harri son vs. Davis, 1 Bartlett oil; Bruce vs. Loan, Ibid. 188; Bromberg vs. Haralson, 44 Congress, Ist seas. H. of R. Your committee therefore recommend the I adoption of the following: Resolved, That the comeet in this case be dismissed, and tliat J. E. Lee is entitled to his seat in this Senate. Respectfully, J. H. McKjnne, Chairman. I have given this case considerable promi nence, became our Northern citizens and the negroes should know that the rights of colored mea are respected in Florida, and that preju dice does not override justice. If the intelligent negroes would only discard their low and selfish white leaders, they would act wisely and secure to a considerable extent the protection and sympathy of the dominant party. The joint committee, consisting of five from the Senate and seven from the Assembly, will leave this afternoon for the purpose or in specting the convict camp near Jacksonville, As the State Fair is now in progress, of course these gentlemen will visit the exhibition. They were fortunate in bavisg such an opportunity to kill two birds with one store. Some tender and considerate member of the Assembly has Introduced a till for the better firotection of dogs. Or course these interri ng animals should be protected and permitted to worry sheep and bite the calves of men and quadrupeds. Their valuable services to hu manity entitle them to the enjoyment of such innocent and playful privileges. Suppose my dog, old Bose, does eat a sheep or two occasionally, belonging to my neighbor Saith? “Don’t his sheep graze over my woods all the time, and isn't Bcze just the best coon and ’possum dog in the neigh borhood? Besides, we don’t care for woolen clothes in this hot climate, and I never did like mutton. Our fathers never paid any tax on dogs and we don't Intend to, nutber. Just let Jake fcimnson vote for such a thing, if he dares, and you'll see if ever be goes to the legislator agin!' It is said that some years ago a member from one of the wiregrass counties prepared a bill “for the protection or sheep ana other animals what the dogs depreda tes on His rash temerity terminated nis political career and blighted bis hopes of ever betrg made Governor. The idea of punishing a man for setting fire to the woods for the benefit of his cattle is another infringement upon the rights of tbe people. Why, now are the cattle going to live unless they can get pasturage? What if the fire does burn up a rew fences? Rails don’t cost much, and people are enclosing too much of the range anyhow. Let these orange and cotton men find homes elsewhere! Why do they come down here, when they are not want ed, to interfere with our business f ’1 he plum and other trees ore beginning to bloom. The amount of business before the Leg! s’a ture this morning necessitated afternoou ses sions of both bodies, so that I am prevented from making my letter as full as usual. W. H. B Popular Education in New York. —The annual report of the Superinten dent of Education of New York State shows that the number of pupilß attend ing the public schools for some part of 1880 was 1,031,593. The whole number of teachers employed in the common schools in 1880 was 30,730, of whom 22,738 were women. The average an nual salary in the cities was $375 82; in the towns, $234 70; in the State, $369 56. The total expenditure for maintenance was $10,206,977 28; the total since 1850 is $203,744,947 17. The Superintendent says the voiin* of women and their elec tion to school offices has done much food, and that fact is generally admitted. 'he Superintendent also states that he will decide all appeals involving the right of women to vote and hold office according to the most literal construc tion of the law. %op pgittfTf.

TAPPING THE WIRES. t In the House of Representatives jester lay Mr. Bicknell, of Indiana, called up the Morgan joint resolution for regulating the fount of the electoral vote, and demanded he previous question. The Republicans namedtateiy began filibustering, and by ab ttalciag from voting, left the House without 1 quorum. At 5:10 p. m. the House bav ng endeavored unsuccessfully throughout .he day to obtain a vote on the resolution, adjourned. In the Senate, Mr. Ingalls, of aansas, submitted a resolution that the leßate be ready to receive the House on the Ith of February for the purpose of counting ,he electoral vote, the President of the Sen ate to declare and pronounce the vote. Laid over and ordered printed. No Lu*i less of any importance was transacted luring the day, and at 4:35 p. ni. the Senate went into executive session, and 600n after adjourned. A dispatch from Martin, Texts, an nounces that the new Opera House there was discovered on fire on Tuesday. Several storehouses in the lower portion of the building, and the building itself, were con sumed. The entire losses amounted to $30,000. The argument in the case of Rufns Hatch vs. the Western Union, Atlantic and Pacific and American Union Telegraph Companies, to prevent their consolidation, was resumed yesterday and continued throughout the afternoon. No decision has yet been reached. Hon. Philetu* Sawyer was yesterday elect ed U. 8. Senator from Wisconsin to succeed Senator Angus Cameron. William J. Sewall was also elected V. S. Senator from New Jersey. The Cincinnati express from Mlllereburg, Ohio, yesterday struck a broken rail when near Columbus. The engine and two cars passed safely, but a coach jumped the track and was thrown down a steep embankment. Eleven persons were Injured. Herr Windhorst, leader of the Catholic party In the Prussian Diet, offered a resolu tion yesterday to the effect that the admin istration of the sacrament and the celebra tion of mass were not contrary to law. Herr Putikamer, Minister of Ecclesiastical Af fairs, opposed the resolution. The discus sion lasted five and a half hours. All the speakers except those of the Centre party and one Secessionist spoke in opposition. The Senate Finance Committee yesterday gave a hearing to the Comptroller of the Currency in opposition to the fifth section of the funding bill. After he had concluded the committee adjourned sime die, but the Chairman will probably call it together again to consider the funding MU before next Tuesday’s regular session. There has been, during the past few months, an unprecedented mortality among lawyers in Harrisonburg, Va. Mayor Harrison, of Chicago, yesterday made two speeches to the Land Leaguers of that city warmly favoring the objects of the League. After concluding Lis second speech the meeting passed certain resolu tions, which they demanded he should sign and forward to Dublin in Lis official capacity. This he refused, so he was hooted and hustled out of the hali. The Tennessee Legislature yesterday elected Howell E. Jackson, Btate Credit Democrat, to the United States Senate on the thirtieth ballot. Gen. Skobeloff telegraphs from Ueok- Tene that on the 24th Inst, the Russians captured that place and Gergil-Tepe after nine hours hard fighting, resulting in the complete rout of the Turcomans. The House of Commons was engaged nearly the whole day yesterday discussing Mr. Forster’s coercion bill. At 2 p. m. a division was had, and Mr. Gladstone’s motion to give precedence to Mr. Forster’s bill was carried. The House then adjourn ed till Thursday. QThe result of the traversers’ trials caused much rejoicing in Ireland. The London Time* says it is sufficient to show the help lessness and inadequacy of ordinary law to repress illegal organizations and agitations of large dimensions. The New York s*cck market opened strong yesterday, and prices advanced. Subsequcnt decline of from to 1 per cent, was recorded, but later o na strong feeling prej vailed and prices advanced. At the close there was another depression of from to 2 per cent. Transactions aggregated 473,- 000 shares. The Philadelphia Record is of the opinion that those Chicago "working men” who resoluted against the accept ance of a bequest of *IOO,OOO by the late millionaire, J. F. Armour, for the estab lishmeut of a mission church and school, are altogether too good for this wicked world. They take the ground that the fortune gained by Mr. Armour in a few years was not earned by him, but by the sweat and toil of overworked and under fed human beings, and that therefore no part of it should be applied to charitable purposes; that had he bequeathed this money to cleanse and beautify the mis erable homes of those who have done so much to make this wealth it would have excused much, etc. Possibly had Mr. Armour left this money to be divided among the men who drew up these reso lotions it would have “excu ed' more. A Wise Precaution. —The New York Board of Heqjth has done a judicious thing in adopting &a ordinance which inflicts a penalty of two hundred and fifty dollars, and a possible si* months’ imprisonment in the penitentiary, upon all individuals issuing invitatious to the funerals of persons who have died of contagious diseases. Physicians of high standing have expressed their convic tions that diphtheria, scarlet fever and smallpox have lately been propagated by that means. The New York World makes very good hit when it points out that the Irish immigrants to the United States have demonstrated to the leaders of the Eng lish Parliament that, in a land where they have something to hope for and live for, alike for themselves and their chil dren, they become as orderly, as saving, as industrious, as temperate and as enter prising as any of the races that have peopled America. Is not that a lesson which it is worth while for Britons to learn? Is it not cne worthy of even Mr. Gladstone’s study? The raid on shoddy butter in the Ohio Legislature has taken an amusing fea ture. By a bill just introduced it is pro posed to make any landlord or boarding house keeper liable to a fine of ten dol lars and ten days imprisonment who'does not inform his guests of the composition of the butter he sets before them. This is rather hard on the hotel and boarding house keepers, and the question is, how are they to know what butter is p.adeof In declining an invitation to a Chicago banquet, Mr. Wm. M. Evarto speaks of the pleasures of his "expected emanci pation” from Hayes’ Cabinet, and adds: "I sfH soon be again the master of my own time and engagements.” It must be a relief to him to feel that be will not be obliged to go about to oountry fair* with the Haves circus this summer, as one of the tools of the fraudulent Presi dent. Ths 3tnrg*fl Joint Rule 4 Ab senteeism. Mr. Bicknell, of Indiana, has an nounced that ht> will call up the joint rule for counting the electoral yote for President and Vice President of the United States this week. Debate on the measure is, it is understood, concluded. The demand for the previous question is now pending, and all that is needed is enough votes to second the demand and pass the resolution. This can be done if Democratic absentees are in their seats in sufficient numbers to secure a quorum. Mr. Bicknell thinks that this will be the case this week if at all this session, and. if so, the rule will be adopted without much difficulty, although the Republicans have already announced their intention to use every means of filibustering which they can command to prevent such a consumma lion. If the Democrats fail in accomplish ing their purposes, the Republicans will probably bring forward a simple resolu tion of procedure based on the theory that the Vice President alone has the power to count the vote. It is to be hoped that the Democratic majority will be present in their seals to act upon this matter for various reasons. It is, in the first place, their duty to be so present. They were elected to repre sent their constituents in the National Legislature, and they draw very good salaries for that purpose. Yet, to the discredit of the offenders be it said, ab senteeism has been so common during the present session, that though the House is nominally a Democratic body, it is virtually Republican, and the latter party-, it seems, while they may not be able to pass any bills, can defeat any measures they de*slre. Neither because Democratic members of the present Con gress have not been re-elected, nor be cause the Lower House of the next Con gress is Republican, is there any justifi cation in the wholesale absences-from their seats, which have characterized the majority ever since Congress met in De cember. We arc glad to record the fact, however, that the members from Geor gia have been conspicuously free from the charge of absenteeism, but have al ways been prompt to appear in their seats to guard the interests of their con stituents. In the next place, it is desirable that this measure shall be passed—especially if it can be done without interfeiing with more important business —because of the precedent which its failure would establish. If, through negligence of the Democratic majority, the Republicans should be able virtually to maintain their position that the Vice President alone has the power under the Constitu tion to count and declare the electoral vote, the result would be fraught with great danger to the republic in the future. It would not only be really establishing, with the tacit acquiescence of the Democ racy, a principle of centralization which is most objectionable, but it would place a power in the hands of one man greater than was ever contemplated by the fram era of the Constitution, anda power, too, which would open wide the door to fraud, and, in the hands of a bitter, reck less partisan, might seriously endanger the rights of the people, and make repe t lions of the Hayes fraud possible if not probable. It is greatly to be hoped, therefore, that the Democratic majority in the House will be present to vindicate the principles of their party and do their duty to their constituents. The passage of the Mor gan joiDt rule will have no practical ef fect, it is true, since Garfield will be our next President whether it be adopted or not. If adopted, however, it will be another Democratic protest aginst cen tralization, and another Democratic stand in support of the Constitution and the rights of the people, which must enure to the credit of the party in future as decidedly as the failure at least to make a strenuous effort to pass it wiil woik to its discredit. Since writing the above we learn from our dispatches that this measure was called up in the House yesterday, and the Republicans were enabled, through Democratic absenteeism, to defeat a vote by filibustering. It seems that all that was necessary for the Republicans to do was to abstain from voting, and so leave the House without a quorum. After fritter ing away three or four hours in this way, the IJpuse, evidently in despair of accom plishing anything, adjourned. Garfield and Grant. A Cincinnati special to the New York World says: "Leading Republicans in this city, like ex-Governor Cox, who are the especial friends of the President-elect, do not conceal their belief that General Garfield means to emphasize the relation which his administration will endeavor to occupy towards General Grant by ■electing as a prominent, if not as the most prominent, member of his Cabinet a well known member of General Grant’s Cabinet, who during eight years held and still retains the unshaken confidence and friendship of the late President. It is intimated also that this adjustment of the pending difficulties has been suggested to Mr. Conkling and accepted by him.” Who is the "well known member of Grant's Cabinet” alluded to? Can it be Belknap, whose resignation the late President hastened to accept to save him from impeachment, thus giving unmis takable evidence of his "unshaken confl dence and friendship?” If Garfield is really going to build for Grant he will have to use some very rotten timber. A Washington special says the colored Mississippi Senator, Bruce, has written a letter to a friend of his in Memphis, in which he says that he has studied all the great questions of public moment since he entered the Senate, and he thinks he is prepared to perform the functions of a Cabinet office if Gen. Garfield appoints him to one. He says it would be emi nently wise to give his race such a recog nition. In setting up the claims of his race, Benator Bruce should specify which race he claims to belong to. Being a light mulatto, it is rather difficult to deter mine that question by his color. If Cabi net appointments are to turn upon race, do let us have the races distinctly de fined, in order that the claims of aspi rants may be decided accordingly. Ah Important Decision. —Judge Woodward, of Luzerne county, Pa., following the decision of the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania in the case of the Bard Orphan Asylum, which exempted that institution from taxation as a charity, although it confined its bene ficiaries to female orphan children of the Protestant Episcopal faith, has just de cided that the Society of Sisters of Christian Charity, the Catholic congre gation of St. Mary’s and the German Catholic congregation, of Wilkesb&rre, are purely public charities and exempt from taxation under the new constitu tion and tha act of 187*. If the decision •hall be sustained by the Supreme Court, It will exempt from taxation many insti tutions in Pennsylvania which are >ow held as taxable by the State authorities. Tlte Co*pea* Centennial. A few days since wc prepared an arti cle calling the attention of our readers to the fact that the State of* South Carolina was very desirous of celebrating, in a manner befitting the occasion, the centen nial anniversary of the battle of the CowJ pens—which conflict reflected so much lustre upon American arms—and was particularly desirous that the original thirteen colonies should participate in, and be identified with, the celebration. To this end, for the reasous then given by us, the unveiling of the monument, which has been ordered for erection on the battle ground, has been postponed from the 17th insL (the centennial anni versary of the battle) to the 11th of May. Since that article appeared we have received from Hod. Wm. A. Courtenay, Mayor of Charleston, and Chairman of the Cowpens Centennial Committee, the following letter, which speaks for it self: Mator’s Office, Uhaelbstos, 8. C., January 24. Editor Morning News The Cowpens Centennial Committee are under many obligations to you for your co opera tion in the work of identifying the State of Georgia with the old thirteen Btatea in the memorial plans to commemorate the victory of 17th January, 1781. Since writing you last week I have received several letters from the Btates north of us, and I now think that all the States unrepresented wiil take immediate action, and that the earliest aim of the project, thi bringing together of the old thirteen, i3 about to be accomplished. Money is of course required for such a work as we are dciug, bnt it is secondary to the identification of all the States, and so the committee are pleased that while you sug gested fifty dollars as the sum to be con tributed by- your cities, you did not stipu late for that amount. A resolution of sym pathy and approval and any sum offered will be highly appreciated. We must have Georgia recorded on this column. Respectfully, Wm. A. CoLKTKsar, Chairman. It will be seen from the above that the Cowpeas Centennial Committee do not desire money so much as they do the assured sympathy of the original thir teen colonies in the movement, and to this end, Mr. Courtenay states that any offering of money, whatever the amount, will be appreciated. He is more solicit ous, as far as Savannah is concerned, that the City Council should simply pass resolutions of their approval of the movement, and their example, he has no doubt, would be promptly followed by other cities aud towns of the State, thus identifying Georgia with the great historical event to be commemorated. We doubt very much whether our City Council would deem it proper—even if they had tbe authority to do so, which is doubtful —to make an appropriation for such a purpose. The small amount of $50 —mentioned in connection with this city—ought to be raised by private subscription without difficulty. There cau, however, be no possible objection to the adoption o? such a resolution as that suggested by Mr.Courtenay. It would cost nothing, but might be productive of good. It would be a pity for Georgia, of all tbe original thirteen colonies of America, to alone takevio part in the celebration of an American victory in which tbe valor of her owa sons was so conspicuously displayed. Telegraphic Monopoly— Consol Ida tion Completed. The New York Times of Saturday says anew scheme of telegraphic monopoly has been perfected. Anew company has been forme! by the consolidation of all the American companies owning or controlling cable connections with other countries, under the title of the Ameri can Telegraph and Cable Company. Gen. Eckert is the President. Oa Wednesday last the certificate of association was filed in Albany. This sets forth that tbe com pany is organized for the purpose of "owning, constructing, purchasing, leasing or otherwise acquiring, using, operating and maintaining a land and submarine line or lines of electric tele graph, partly within and partly without the limits of the State of New York.” The capital stock of the company will be $20,000,000, with power to increase the same, and the term of the association is fixed for fifty years. The new company proposes, with the co-operation of the consolidated Western Union Company, "not only to increase the existing cable facilities between this country and Europe and to extend southward the cables which now connect this country with Cuba and the West Indies, so as to secure for the great coffee trade of the United States a direct telegraphic com munication with Brazil, but also to lay cables under the Pacific from San Fran cisco to Honolulu. From Honolulu one cable will be laid uuder the North Pacific to Japan, connecting there with the cable from Itoki to Shanghai, in China, and another under the South Pacific, by way of Ellice's Islands aud tbe Friendiy Isles, to New Cale donia, and thence to Brisbane, in Aus tralia, where it will connect with the Australian and New Zealand cable sys tem in one direction and with the Aus tralian and Straits system in the other direction.” 22 Lotteries—When LawfuL Editor Morning Mnti: I see in your paper of to-day Wednesday, 20th) “that a bill has been introduced into the New York Legisla ture to authorise any church, religious, charitable or benevolent society to hold fairs or exhibitions, and at such to set up or propose goods snd chattels to be raffled for,” but that "the conatltutlon of the State of New York prohibits any lottery to be au thorised, or any sale of lottery tickets allowed within the State.” I may be obtuse, Mr. Editor, but this In consistency in legislation pussies me. If lotteries be so injurious to public morals as to need prohibition in the fundamental law of New York, how is it that they cease to be so damaging, when money is to be raised fi r a church or a charily Is there no such thing, after all that has been preached for eighteen hundred and fifty years, as a fixed moral principle, or are they, all, on a sliding scale regulated by interest, under the rule that "the end justifies the means The purpose of lotte ry, "the distribution of prises by chance, ’Ms the aarne in all; and gambling "the playing for prises” Is denounced by all Christian churches. I’m in a dilemma. First, lotte ries are constitutionally forbidden; second, they are not to be prohibited at church or charity fairs or exhibitions: third,the object being the same, it ia unlawful and wrong to sell a ticket for it on Broadway, but It is lawful and right to sell a ticket for it at the fair. The question eoems to me to be as mixed as the last Presidential election, or as will be the question between the missionary and the Cannibal who eat him, at the gen era! resurrection, of "which Is which.” Won’t some moralist— Who can distinguish and divide A hair, 'twixt south, and Bouthwest side,” Come to our rescue, and make clear the moral distinction and difference between an open, public lottery forbidden by the con stitution, and a close church or charity lot tery sought to be legalised. What Is "sauce for the goose ought to be sauce for the gan der,” one would think. Enquirbb. The dress cap for regimental officers and enlisted men in our army is to give way to spiked helmets, not unlike, in general shape, those which Germany has made famous. Field officers, and all officers of mounted troops and of the Signal Corps, are to wear instead of the spike a plume of buffalo hair, white for infantry, yellow for cavalry, and red for artilleiy. The ornaments on the hel mets of the enlisted men will indicate their arm of the service or their occupa tion, for example—infantry, crossed rifles; artillery, crossed cannon; ord nance, a shell and flame; engineers, a castle; commissary sergeants, a crescent of white metal, and so on. In summer officers may wear a light cork helmet, with a ventilator instead of a spike. So military fashions change from age to age. Presently this new, or rather an cient, fashion of helmets will give way to something else. Point* of Hi* Coming Mook, the “Rise and Fall ol the Confederate Government.” Iftte York Herald. For the first time since—nearly fifteen years ago—he walked a free man out of a Federal prison, Mr. Jefferson Davis, first and last President of the late Southern Confederacy, is about to become the cen tre of discussion. With a swiftness that were almost magical the imperious and self-willed leader of the seceding States dropped out of general attention on the collapse of his government. For more than ten years the currents have swept by him carelessly, and nothing has been beard of him except that his name was here and there woven into the growling platitudes of some Northern editor, or borne on the huzzas of some occasional Southern audience. Mr. Da vis now comes to tbe front with a history of secession and the war of secession— that is, a defense as well as a history— and that being aggressive as well as au thoritative, must command very wide at tention. In view of the nature of the forthcoming book and its distinguished character it becomes interesting to know something of Mr. Davis' history for the past decade, the manner of his research and writing, the influences and inspira tions under which he has prepared his defense and justification of the most gigantic civil war of modern times. A PRIVATE SUBSCRIPTION. It is known to his friends that Mr. Davis has been very poor since 1870. Some years ago, I learn upon the very best authority, it cams to the knowledge of Governor Colquitt, of Georgia, that the ex President was in actual need of funds. Governor Colquitt at once quietly con sulted Governor Hampton and others, and a fund of $4,000 was raised at once. This was sent to Mr. Davis with a letter in which it was stated that it had been raised solely among bis ex colleagues, and in such a way that if it were return ed it could not find its way to the origi nal subscribers. Mr. Davis replied in a dignified but appreciative letter, saying that under the circumstances he would be compelled to retain the amount sent, but that the subscription must not be repeated nor extended, as he could consent to receive nothing more, adding that there were hundreds of fatherless children and widows who needed it worse than he did. In the same spirit Mr. Davis has declined ail testimonials or benefits, end avoided wheu possible, even public re cognition. He has attended no conven tion or meetings, delivered no addresses except a few casual speeches to crowds that caught him at hotels, in which he said as little as possible. He has re fused all offers to lecture, having had re peated offers to engage for a season at SSOO a night. With stern and unassaila ble purpose he has preserved his silence, standing aloof from all discussion or ex citement, seeking seclusion in the sense of dignity rather than of retreat, holding for years and years, through storm and calm, a figure that had once been all fire and energy, almost as dumb and motion less as the monuments that stand over the men who died under his leadership. MATERIALS FOR HISTORY. It must not be supposed that Mr. Da vis has been idle or inactive during his retirement. For more than ten years he has devoted himself to the collection of material for writing his history of the Confederate Government. A gentleman who knows him intimately said to your correspondent: "Ten years ago Mr. Davis said to me that he intended to devote the remaining years of his life to the writing of a de fense of the Lost Cause. ‘lf God spares me,’ he said, ‘I shall put in the hands of the children of our dead a justification of tbe cause for which their fathers died.’ His work is dedicated to the widows and children of the Confederate dead. But there is little of sentiment in the book. It is a cold, clear, logical appeal to pub lic judgment.” After Mr. Davis bad spent years in the collection of material for his work be felt the necessity of some quiet place in which he could concentrate all his scat tered papers and obtain the seclusion necessary for his great task. This was quickly offered by Mrs. Surah Dorsey, who had always been a devoted Confed erate and an especial friend and admirer of Mr. Davis. She was then living at Beauvoir, a country seat of consid erable pretensions, about two hours’ ride out of New Orleans. While she was not of blood kin to Mr. Davis, the relations between his family and hers had always been close, and there had been some in termarriages. Mr. Davis accepted her Invitation aud was soon settled at Beau voir, where his papers shortly followed him. MR. DAVIS AT BEAUVOIR. If an author, engaged upon work that required reflection and study, were to try the world over he could not get a place belter suited to his needs than Beauvoir. It stands several miles off the railroad —on the shore of the gulf— and is surrounded with the dismantled wrecks of mansions that were formerly the summer homes of the wealthy peo pie of New Orleans. The rooms in which Mr. Davis wrote the history of the war are neatly but comfortably fur nished. The front room, entered from a low piazza, is the library. It is filled to the ceiling with books and papers, all bearing on tbe war. There is a rough lad der platform by which the upper shelves may be reached. Mr. Davis is quite proud of this library, which, he says, is probably the completest collection of books bearing on the war, its causes and its conduct, now in existence. Your cor respondent noticed on the shelves such light and goseipv books as "Four Years in the Saddle,” "Surrey of Eagle’s Nest,” etc., and accepted them as evi dence of the care with which the distin guished author had gathered every volume that could fix an incident or in dicate a sentiment. Over the plain wooden mantel is a large steel engaving, the only decoration in the room. HOW HE WORKS. In the centre of the room stands a large table, on which Mr. Davis writes or dictates. He writes a great deal him self, but occasionally dietates—always to a long-handed writer. Major W. T. Walthall began as Secretary, but Judge Tenney, editor of Appleton's Encydo podia, and General Joe Davis, his ne phew, have been with him for the past year. General Marcus Wright, who has charge of the Confederate archives at Washington, has been in almost con stant correspondence with Mr. Davis, has had thousands of original docu ments copied from the archives, and has spent some weeks at Beauvoir. WILL rr BR BROAD OR PERSONAL? I find a very general fear throughout the South that Mr. Davis will let his in tolerant spirit get the better of him, aud that what should be an impartial history will become a vehicle of personal opin ions and prejudices. Your correspond ent talked with Mr. Davis upon this point when the work was about half completed. In reply to the question as to whether or not the book would be personal and aggressive. Sir. Davis laughed and said: "They say when people get old they become spiteful, but I think 1 understand and appreciate thoroughly the character of my undertaking.” The antagonisms bred in the Confederate administration were so bitter, and, where Sir. Davis was concerned, were so personal and re lentless, that the book will necessarily provoke many a controversy throughout Southern political and military circles. Mr. Davis enjoys the rare advantage of having before him as be writes the specie pleas of most of his antagonists. THE CHIEF POINTS OF THE WORK. The two most important points of the work—for after all the constitutional argument which will doubtless be fine, became res adjudicate after a certain fine morning at Appomattox —will be the discussion of the peace movements and the defense of the policy of the Davis administration as opposed to the Stephens, Brown and Toombs policy. The first is vastly the most important point History is gradually settling upon the head of Mr. Davis the burden of a war protracted long after he was assured that success was impossi ble. It is said that General Lee assured Mr. Davis long before the conclusion of tbe war that inevita ble failure awaited the Confederate arms. It is even said that prior to the first visit of Mr. Blair to Mr. Davis,Gen. Lee had demonstrated to him the improbability of rdccM. &fld that tbe interview between Mr. Daria and Mr. Blair will show this.

Land League .fleeting. A large and enthusiastic meeting of the Savannah Branch No. 1 and those friendly to its objects was held last evening at the hall of the League, No. 149 Bryan street. After the transaction of the usual routine of business, and addresses having been made by several of the members, President Doyle introduced Mr. Fltzgibbon,of Chicago, to the League, who in eloquent yet plain language described tbe condition of Ireland, and how Mr. Parnell has infused a spirit of Independence into t~e hearts of the people who, before his time, were in the dust grovelling beneath the heel of the oppressor. Having eulogized Messrs. Davitt and Btggar, he alluded to the base course pur sued by others who had been elected as Home Rulers, but who, when occasion re quired it, had not the moral courage to stand by the principles of the party. Mr. Luke Carson handed la a handsome contribution, which will swell considerably the funis of tits League. The Treasurer reported that he had remitted two hundred dollars, and owing to the large collection at this meeting, he would in a few enabled to make another remittance. The friends of Ireland have now an opportunity of showing their love for the Green Isle,” and lt is to be hoped that our neighboring cities will not be ahead of them in demon strating tbe importance they attach t-o the labors of Mr. Parnell and hie colleagues.

Dealt) ot \Y. B. Vt’jUy. Mr. W. B. Wylly.of this city,better known as “Brack” Wyliy, was found dead in one of the mxiu ditches of the Springfield plantation yesterday at noon. Ur. Wyliy had been planting a part of tha Cooper place, and left his m jther’s house In this city at half-pa.t ten o’clock Tuesday night on his return to that place. It lt supposed that, instead of followieg tha road, he took a short cut across the field and fell or slipped into tho dt'.cb, in which there were about three feet of waier, and the •ides of which are prec’pitoua aad slippery. Along the side foradDtance of six j feet are Indications where he aitempted to get out, but it is supposed that the cold water brought on an attack of paralysis, with which of late he ha* been threatened, and he was overcome and fell face down ward in the watei .was unable to rise,aud was drowned. The deceased was a printer by trade, aod served hi* time In the printing office once carried on by the aid firm cf John M. Cooper A Cos. He was 41 years of age, and unmarried.

Yesterday afternoon, between four and five o’clock, a singular accident, the result of a runaway, occurred on Bay street, near Houston, and was attended with serious consequences. A colored man was riding the well known trotter'of Mr. W. H. Ray bareback down Bay street, when from some cause the aGtmal took fright and becoming unmanageable dashed off in a furious gallop. Near tbe corner of Houston street a truck happened to be in the way, and the rider being utterly unable to control his horse, the frightened animal ran directly under the truck between tbe span of wheels, knocking his rider off, breaking his thigh bone, smashing out hie front teeth and otherwise seriously injuring him. The horse was also baaly hurt, tbe hair on his back being completely scraped off and the flesh lacerated. It is supposed that unable to avoid a collision, the horse slipped, and iu a crouching position, a* it were, slid directly under the truck. The colored man was picked up and placed In a wagon and sent to the Georgia Infirmary, where he received prompt attention. His condition is considered rather 6erlous. Perpetual Motion. The following is from tho Macon Tde groph in reference to a recent paragraph in these columns: “The hidden secret that has sent so many men to the insane asylum has b>en discov ered at last. The Bavannah Naw says: ‘Mr. John Thomson, at the Central Rail road office, has, we learn, succeeded In at taining perpetual motion through a rotary machine, upon which he has bestowed con siderable time and labor. Ia a short while be will be enabled to give an exhibition to the public.’ We never hear cf perpetual motion without recalling an incident in the history of President Jackson. One of those wild, eccentric men succeeded In gaining an audience with ‘Old Hickory.’ The General told him to stop In his wonderful descrip tion, and take a stand in the middle of the room, which he did. The General told him to lift him>elf up from the floor by the seat of his breeches, assuring the astonished man that when he could do this, he would listen to his theory of perpetual motion. But tbiuce have changed since then.” ttaperlor Court. Hon. W. B. Forming, Juige preriling. Court met yesterday morning at 10 o’clock, when the following business was transacted W'm.

It Is stated that when the moon is going Into its last quarter, and when it is in its test quarter, each month the police have more trouble with disorderly people than at any other time;that at that particular period there is a marked increase of drunkenness,fighting and disorder generally, and that all the vicious elements of society show themselves more palpably then than at any other time. Whether the moon Is to blame for It or not is a question worth tbe while of scientists to invest'gate, in order that tbe responsible ty may be placed where it belongs. At any rate, ihe statement is only in accord with the old theory that the moon had something to do with insanity, wlieh gave rise to the name “lunacy.” By the wav, the moon is about ia its last quartt r now. Disturbing tbe Audience in tlie Theatre. Last night, about ten o’clock, tome dis turbance and considerable annoyance was occasioned by the disorderly conduct of a colored female named Charlotte Mitchell. She was spoken to by Policeman McQuade, and ordered to be quiet, but instead of heed tng the remonstrance became more turbulent She was thereupon arrested and taken to the barracks. There has been so much complaint of the disorder in the gallery that it is be hoped an example will made in this case, In order to deter others from in dulging In such unseemliness.

About quarter past eleven o’clock last night Policeman Malone found a white man lying in the streets who was completely paralyzed from liquor. He was not only UDabletohelp himself, but couid not utter a cqberent woid, and bonce was unable to give his name. He was hauled to the bar racks and consigned to a cell to sleep off bis potations.

Also for YELLOW FEVER, BLOOD and KIDNEY POISONING, in infected malarial sections. tST By the distillation of a FOREST LEAF with JUNIPER BERRIES and BARLEY MALT we hare discovered KIDXEGEN, which acts speciflca! y on the Kidneys and Urinary Organs, re moving deposit! in the bladder and any 6training, smarting, heat or Irritation in the water passages, giving them strength, vigor, and causing a healthy color and easy flow of urine. It can be taken at all times, in all climates, without injury to the system. Unlike any other preparation for Kidney difficulties, it has a very pleasant and agreeable taste and flavor. It con tains positive diuretic properties and will not nauseate. Ladies especially wi 1 like it, and Gen tlemen will find KIDNEGEN the best Kidney Tonic ever used!
