The Greenville Female College is now in a most flourishing condition, numbering one hundr.-d and forty pupils, a very large propor tion of whom board in the college building. Wiliiam Moore, ore amongst the eldest citi zens of Gr-enviile county, died at his home, about ten miles from that city, on Thursday, in the eighty-ninth year of his age. He was a soldier in the war of 1812. There have been in operation in Columbia this year fiAir free schools, with eight white aud twelve colored teachers, and having 216 white and t>oo colored pupils. All the oolored teachers taught in the Howard school, where all the 800 colored pupils were taught. A correspondent of the Sumter Watchman advises the establishment of a cotton factory in Bumter county, and urges the enterprise upon the monied men of that prosperous sec tion as one of the safest and best payicg in vestments for their surplus money. The board to contract for and furnish arti ficial limbs to cit liens of the Bt*te who lost their limbs in the Confederate service met on Thursday in the Governor’s office. They passed on several applications for compensa tion under the act. Bix of these were rejected as not coming under the provisions of the act. Four applications were granted. Hon. J. Proctor Knott, of Kentucky, who has been sojourning with Captain Jowett, at Port Royal, vidted Beaufort a few nights ago, and was complimented with a serenade by the Beaufort Cornet Band.

The South Carolina Presbytery, embracing fire counties, will meet in Aveleigh Church, Newberry, the 6th of April. A negro girl, about eight years of age, living a few miles above Camden, wai nearly burned to death last week by her clothes catching on fire. The heavy rain on last Wednesday night did a great deal of damage throughout Edgefield county. Several bridges and two or three mills were washed away. The salaries of the public teachers in Colleton county have been fixed for those holding first grade certificates at $35 a month, second grade S3O and third grade $25. There are thirty-eight white and nineteen colored teachers in the public schools of Ches ter county. The average pay of the teachers is scarcely SJO per month; the average length of the school session last year was four months. The price of horses and mules has gone up In Pickens about per cent. The price of land is also rapidly advancing. E iza Murphy, a colored woman, aged 75, fell in Twenty-five Mile creek last week and was drowned. The total value of all property in Camden is S 157,220, on which the taxes amount to $4,572. ul A number of citizens on the Savannah side have executed a bond to the Treasurer of the Savannah Railroad for $5,000 to secure the lo cation of the road by Mount Carmel and Wil liugton.

Young Williams tuspended himsslf by the hands to tbs ends of the crossties as the train approach ed, but relinquished bis hold when the engme reached him and fell to th# ground. Jones held on to the edge of the trestle until the engine pissed, but a wide freight box grazed his hips, sending him tumbling to the earth. Williams suffered no injury beyond a shock and slight concussion, and was sent to his home. Jones was painfully bruised about the back aud hips. OUK WASHINGTON LET TEE. Tbe New Secretary of tbe Jiavy-A Lull Among Southern Office Huu *cr*—Dr. Felton aud the Cornmla* alouerabip ol Agriculture—The Sa vannah Silver linpiovemcnta. Washikgton, March 21.—The new Secretary of the Navy lives on the same street where your humble servant does his sleeping and eating. Our street is not very fashionable. Ihe residents of it are of the solidly comfort able class. Mr. Hunt used to be of that class, but now he is very fashionable. lie is now one of the men most sought after in the national capital. His house is a very nice one, and he is a very courteous and polished gentleman. Four weeks ago the street did not think very much of him. Now the streetdoteson him. He promises to carry us into the ultra-fashionable section of the city, upon the borders of which we have been hanging for two years past. The change,s brought about by the present official position of Mr. Hunt is one of the best illustrations in the matter of official prestige that ever came under my observa tion. When he was a plain Judge of tha Court of Claims, nobody thought snout him Kven our strCVt, which is lacking in dignitaries, did not look upon him as anybody to be proud of. There never was, except on rare occa sions. a carriage before his door. He was not much better in the discriminating eyes ot our street than the average government employe. Now it is ail changed. Our street is proud to enroll among its residents a Cabinet officer; it wonders that it did not before recognize the greatness of Mr. Hunt. And then, cow that he is Secretary of the Navy, he enlivens our here tofore somewhat dull locality. Few people wanted to see h m a month ago, but now hundreds are after him. Wtien he ia away at his office Sirs. Hunt is called upon by ladies of the upper social circle who a few short days ago would not have thought of recognizing her. There is a Stream of carriages driving up to and away lioiu her door at every hour w hen it is fashionable to call. Women in the richest cresses that inoDey cen buy step out and pay ner court. When Mr. Hunt is home from the depart meat. the m>n begin to call. They keep it up till nice or ten o’clock in the evening. Our street is becoming almost a moving pageant of gay equipages and swell footmen and drivel's We appreciate it all, and indulge in sundry reflections about the men we thought nothing of yesterday, but who are to-day mighty in the land. Reflections of a kindred chara ter are also induced when we see an ex Cabinet Minister is passed by in the streets now without even a salute from those who a few short weeks ago were bowing before him and asking his favor or influence. There is nothing like this republic of ours. A3 soon as the dog is dead we give him a kick and dance attendance upon his successor. a tin. There is a lull among the Southern office hunters. Many of them have left town, con vinced of the fact that Garfield wants none of their crowd. Only the hotels are the better off for their coming. But some of them linger. Prominent among those who still stay around is Collector Clarke. Ilethastened to Washing ton when he read in the News that there were scalpers after him. He stays here and ia try ing to work up a retention boom. He don’t seem to be very much encouraged. Raum, who has been his staunchest defender, is not as warm as he was. Kaurn, who want* to retain h;s position as Commissioner of Interoaljtevenue, don't know exactly that he had better rush indiscrimi nately into a campaign in behalf of C'arke or any bo iy else. There may be a contingency in i which he will want to orgrnize all his forces in behalf of himself. Henc* he goes not to the defense of Clarke. The latter will remain here sometime, it is understood, watching events. He labors under one disadvantage. Ho can’t find out exactly who aud what influences are working against him. Major Smyth, who has filed a paper for reappointment as Marshal, continues with us. Ido not think that ho baa much idea >f getting the place. He certainly watches things closely, but does not seem to •ntr into the spirit of the contest as one who expected that he stood even a possible chance of success. Perhaps he is mak iag one of those still-hunts for which our uncle Samuel, of Gramercy Park, is famous. I take it, however,that he is the mere anxious as to making tbe acquaintance and getting into the good graces of whoever may be the most probable candidate than he is in urging forward his own claims. DR. FELTON. It seems apparent at the present writing that the eminent political divine, Dr. Felton, would have to search around for some other public b-rtU than that of Commissioner of Agricul ture. to succeed our national fraud, Le Due. The Doctor does not seem to have the inside track, despite all that he has done tor the Re- party. He does not seem to strike x. Garfield as one of the men with which to break the South, who he is looking around for in the distribution of the public patronage. The Doctor missed tin not having a Mahone-like opportunity. It seems as if Dr. Loring. of Massachusetts, would be made Commissioner of Agriculture It is reported to-night that the nomination of Loring to this place will go to the Senate to-morrow or next day. If this be true let Dr. Felton pick out an other and iees national position and make a break for it He certainly deeerves something. If the Republican party does not in some way reward him for services rendered it deserves to go down to history as a monument of ingrati tude. THE SAVANNAH HARBOR IMPROVEMENTS. It is well known that the House, in passing the river and harbor bill, only put in it a pica yune appropriation of S26,(XW for improving Savannah harbor. The increase finally passed was due principally to Senator Brown. The appropriation of $260,000 was intended, it was stated in the bill, to complete the improve ments at savannah. A member ot the Com merce Committee tells a pretty good story about Senator Brown when the increase was pending in the Senate. Senator Brown said to the committee after it had decided to put in the item as it finally passed: “Even this we do not intend as a completion of the work. We ex pect to get a million dollars more from this government We are determined that such a necessary and important work shall be com pleted on the scale it deserves,” and tben.con tinued the gentleman, whom I quote: “Brown went into the Senate and got through an addi tional amendment directing the Secretary of War to cause the necessary surveys and esti mates to be made, with a view to securing a channel of twenty-two instead of sixteen feet, as contemplated when the work of improve ment was commenced. Potomac. Republicans ask why Democrats could decently use Mahone's vote, if Republi cans cannot. No man who asks the question knows enough to understand the answer. A man in politics, who knows the difference between right and wrong, knows that every party has some low fellows who are incidental to politics and grow out of the fact that there are people to elect them who have low standards and no morals. The party which is encumbered with one of these may accept his vote but to buy one of these from his allegiance, and more, to sell one’s self in buying one of these, and to make politics turn upon such a fellow’s vote, is high treason against the State, the highest crime against all polit ical morality. —Nashville American.

THE NATIONAL CAPITAL THE SENATE’S POWERS AT THE CALLED SESSION. Tbe Debate on the Vorheea Reso lution Relative to the Rank* Con tlnaetl-Chaugee Among tbe Diplo mat*—Collector Clarke to be He **loed for tbe Present at Least— Farther Discussion of the Extra Session Question. Washington, March 23.—The effort to secure the removal of Collector Clarke baa not been successful, though lu the best of hands. Garfield has decided to retain him for the present. This decision is not final, however, and the question may be reopen ed at a later date with better chances of success. It may be stated that it will be re opened as soon as an opportune moment presents itself. SKNATB PROCEEDING!. In the Ssnate, Mr. Voorhees again submit ted the resolution which he bad yeaterday offered and subsequently withdrawn, declar ing that the hostile attitude assumed by the national banks to the refunding of the na tional debt at a lower rate of interest, and their recent attempt to dictate the legislation of Congress, are contrary to the beet inter ests of tne people, and calculated to excite their alarm for the future. Mr. Morrill raised the point of order that the resolution was not in order, inasnuch as it was a legislative proposition. Mr. Sherman thought that It would be unjust to tbe Chair to require him to decide the point before all the precedents on the question had been cited. His recollection was that propositions like this had been de bated is every executive session which had ever been called, and fce hoped that Mr. Voorhees would be permitted to speak to the point of order. Mr. Morrill said he bad no objection to the gentleman’s speaking to the point. His j only reason for objecting to his speaking to i the merits of the resolution was that he desired the Senate to adjourn at an early day, and that the proposition would proba bly give rls* to a protracted debate. Mr. Voorhees then proceeded to argue that the proposition was clearly ln order, and cited from precedents to show that at a special executive sesaion of the Senate aay business could be transacted which did nut need the co-operation of the House of Representatives. He quoted from the opin ions of such men as Chase, Seward and Douglass to the effect that the Senate at a special session might do any act which it was competent for iL to do by itself without the of the House, and stated that that theory was embodied by Mr. Sew ard in resolutions and unanimously adopt ed. lie regretted to convince aDy one against bis will, and most of all the Senator from Michigan (Mr. Feriy), who bad yesterday sprung to his feet in opposition to the presentation of the pend ing resolution, but it was a fact that that gentleman had during a special session of the Forty-third Congress offered a resolu tion abstracting from the public domain the Island of Mackinaw, and dedicating it to the people —of course the people of Michigan. The Senator had made a strong speech in favor of the power of the Benate to adopt the resolution, and it had been adopted. The propo sition which he (Mr. Voorhee*) had submitted needed no concurrence by the House. It was to give information upon a great, overshadowing question. It was to give the departments of this government the opinion which the Senate of the United S'ates entertained on a great public matter, and it might be very important to certain branches of the government that this ex pression of opinion should be given. Mr. Morrill said it would seem from the precedents that the Senate had always great reluctance to doing anything except what it had been especially called to do. So far as he was concerned, however, he would with draw the point of order, as the resolution would at ali events have to go over until to morrow, and if there was a disposition to discuss this question, or any otner, the Re publican side of the chamber was quite ready. Mr. Morrill withdrew Ids point of order against Mr. Voorheeb’ resolution, which was laid over for one day under the rules. Mr. Dawes offered a resolution for t.he election of Senate officers, and naming the candidates selected by the Republican caucus yesterday. Laid over. The Senate then at 1:10 went into execu tive session, and when the doors were re opened, at 1:45, adjourned until to morrow. NOMINATIONS. The President sent the following nomina tions to the Senate to-day: Wm, H. Roberts to be Collector of Customs for the port of New York; Wm. Walter Phelps, of New Jersey, to be Mluister to Austria; Edwiu A. Merritt, of New York, to be Consul General at London; Adam Badeau, of New York, to be Charge d’Affaires at Copenhagen; Lewis Wallace, of Indiana, to be Charge d’Affaires for Paraguay and Uraguay; Michael J. Cramer, of Kentucky, to be Charge d’Affaires for Switzerland; William E. Chandler, of New Hampshire, to be So licitor General; Samuel F. Phillips, of North Carolina, to be Judge of the Court of Claims; L. A. Helton, of Ohio, to be Gov ernor of New Mexico; Thomas M. Nicbol, of Wisconsin, to be Commistdooerof Indian Affaire: George W. Atkinson, to be United States Marshal for West Virginia; and the following Postmasters: George K Gilmer, at Richmond, Va.; T. R Morgan, at Pulaski, Tenn.; Charles M. Wilder, at Columbia, S. C., and Hamilton Jay at Jacksonville, Fla. THB EXTRA SRSSION QUESTION. The President to-day had a conference with Secretaries Blaine and Wicdom re garding an extra session. Mr. Blaine, it is reported, favors, and Windom opposes one. No decision was reached, but it is under stood the matter is in such shape that a decision may be reached at any moment. The impression prevails to night that tbe outlook for an extra session is not near so favorable as it was a few days since. SOME IMMIGRATION STATISTICS. The Chief of the Bureau of Statistics re ports the arrival of 15,075 Immigrants in the United Spates during the month of February, 1881. The total number reported to have arrived during the eight mouths ended February 28th, was 305,022. COLLECTOR CLARK TO BE RETAINED. The contest over the office of Collector of Internal Revenue for tne Second district of Georgia is reported to have been settled by President Garfield’s deciding to retain An drew Clark, the present incumbent. THROWN FROM THE TRACK. Smaalfup on the Labe Shore Road —The Engineer aud Fireman Killed.

Tbe “Daily News” on tbe Outlook— Tbe Boera Definitely Agree to the British Terms. London, March 23.—The Daily Newt this morning says: “We understand that Gen. Sir Evelyn Wood’s main object in the nego tiations with the Boers was to obtain ade quate guarantees for the just treatment of the natives, and that the chief duty of the Royal commission will be to devise meas ures for giviDg full effect to his poli cy. Avery important part of their work will be the determination of the northern and eastern frontiers of the Transvaal, whereby the tribes which the Boers have vainly tried to subjugate will either recover their independence or enjoy the protection of England. The British resident will be invested with the important function of the protection of the natives living within the limits of tbe territory. The government has thus tried to secure justice for both races.” A dispatch from Mount Prospect says: “At to day’s conference at O’Neill’s farm, the Boers definitely agreed to all the British terms. They will retire from Laigsnek to morrow.” THE RHODE ISLAND DEMO CRATS. The State Convention, mahone and tbe Republican* Denounced. Providence, R.

The historical village of Valley Forge. Pa., was thrown into a high fever of ex citement at an early hour Friday morn ing, March 18, when it became known that Mr. William Clugston, one of the leading and most respected citizens, had been murdered by au unknown burglar. The story of the tragedy is best told by the eldest son, Samuel Clugsion, who was in the house at the time, and who says that he took an active part ia the conflict with the burglar. At about 3 o’clock Mr. Clugston was awakened by a noise in his bedroom. He saw a hatless and coatless man moving about the room with a cat like tread, and he at once demanded to know who was there. The stranger replied, “Keep still, old fellow, or you’re a dead man.” Mr. Clugston arose from his bed and gave the alarm. The thief instantly grappled with him, and a terrible con flict ensued. The aged wife screamed for her son, who slept in another room. Thomas Clugston, aged 22, says he at once responded, but before he had time to enter the room he heard two shots in rapid succession. Those shots were fired by the burglar, who was still grappling with Mr. Clugston. The son says: “Just as I entered the room my father reeled and fell, and I at once knew that he had been shot. My mother was near ly frantic. I saw the strange man as he was attempting to leave the room, and I at once attacked him. He was a strong and determined man, and in our violent struggle we fell to the floor. Tbe door leading to the head of the stairs was open, and we tumbled to the bottom of a steep flight. I retained my hold of him in the darkness, and called for help. I managed to get the pistol from him, and when I thought I had mastered him he mysteriously unbottoned his vest with out my knowing it and thus slipped out of my grasp, ran to the front window, and escaped as he had entered. I fol lowed as best I could and fired two shots after him, but did not hit him.” The man escaped in the darkness, hat less, coat’ess and shoeless, leaving his apparel behind him. By this time the neighbors were aroused and began to assemble, and when they reached the house they found old Mr. Clugston lying at the foot of the stairs in the hallway, having reached the landing at the head of the stairs after his son and the burglar had plunged down headlong, and his strength deserting him he fell. When found life was extinct,he having lived just twenty minutes after being shot. Only one shot took effect, the ball entering the right side of the neck above the clavicle and passing direct into the spinal column, severing in its course the jugular vein and carotid artery. Death was caused by internal hemorrhage. Among the effects left behind by the burglar was a pocketbook containing a pawn ticket issued by the National Loan Office of Baltimore, numbered 23 826, and bearing the name of E. A. Abbot; a card upon which was written, “Edwin H. Johnson, inquire at Nineteenth and Poplar streets, 841 Mattock. (Signed) A Friend;” a photograph of a little girl, probably eight or nine years of age; several hotel cards, three dollars and ten cents in currency, and a ten dollar note of 1864 issue of the Allegheny County State Bank. There was only one thief in the house, but he had au accomplice outside. When the son and the thief had tum bled down stairs, locked in each other's arms, the son says that he held his man about ten minutes in the dark. The county officials have the case in hand, but up to a late hour no arrest had been reported. Mr. Clugston was Superin tendent and principal owner of tbe Val ley Forge Palm-fibre Paper Company. He leaves a wife and eleven children. Slaughter by Apaches—Thirty Whites Killed in New Mexico. A telegram to the New York Herald from Denver, Col., March 17, says: “In formation received by telegraph from what appears to be a trustworthy source states that the Apache renegades under Nana have again appeared on the south ern border and killed thirty persons. A letter just received from the same place brings a rumor of the reappearance of this band of Indians, and although the source of the information is not consid ered so well informed, seems to refer to the same matter,and both are probably to an extent virtually confirmatory. This ac count states that eleven men,three women and a boy were killed. They were ac companying a wagon train from New Mexico into Mexico, and had passed on ahead of the train, when they were set upon by the Indians and killed, one boy only escaping. He returned to inform the people with the train, who, coming up, discovered the dead bodies lying scalpless and naked on the ground. That is what the letter says. The telegram above referred to says that thirty were killed and that several wagons were burned. It seems probable there was a subsequent attack on the train, and the Indians killed those who had been left after the first slaughter.” A Good Housewife. The good housewife, when she Is giving her house its spring renovating, should bear In mind that the dear inmates of her house are more precious than many houses, and that their systems need cleansing by purify ing the blood, regulating the stomach and bowels to prevent and core the arising from spring malaria and miasma, and she must know that there la nothing that will do it so perfectly and surely as Hop Bitters, the purest and best of medicines.

The London correspondent of the New York Herald telegraphs as follows in regard to the assassination of the Czar of Russia: '‘The best account of the murder that any eye-witness has been able to give is that of Capt. Novikoff, of the Imperial staff, who was present when the second bomb was thrown, and who helped to raise the dying Emperor. This officer had attended the inspection held at one o’clock in the Great Michael Riding School, and was on his way home down the Nevsky Prospect, crossing the Cathe rine canal, when be heard the first ex plosion. He arrived within thirty yards of the Emperor when he saw a cloud of snow suddenly blown into the air. The second bomb had exploded. The ground was strewn with wounded men. Groans were beard on all sides. On one heap of snow was a dead boy, a wounded soldier of the body-guard and a wounded civilian. In the road lay the Emperor, motionless. He wore the uniform of the Sappers of the Guard, whom he had just been reviewing. His legs were shatter ed; blood flowed from his wounds. Some sailors came up and raised him from the ground. Capt. Novikoff took him round the body; the sailors held by the legs. They moved forward a few paces, when the Emperor said twice, ‘Cold, cold,’ and endeavored to raise his hand to his forehead, on which there was blood. Capt. Novikoff, supporting the Czar with one arm, tried with the other to get bis handkerchief and bind the Emperor’s head. “At that moment the Grand Duke Michael came up, and, bending over the I Czar’s face, said, anxiously, ‘Howfeelest thou?’ To this the Emperor replied. It was difficult to hear what he said. He did not utter a single groan. The Grand Duke snatched a cap from a bystander and placed it on the Emperor’s head. He then bade the sailors move forward with him. The people had meanwhile been running up from all sides. Many fell on their kuees; all crossed themselves and wept. There seemed to be no convey ance in which the wounded Czar ceuld be placed. The police officers had driven up in a sledge, but the horses had taken fright and had run away. A com mon sledge was standing not far off, but it was too small to allow the wounded man to be supported in it. Captain Novikoff asked the Grand Duke Michael’s permission to carry the Crar into a neighboring house and endeavor to stanch the flow of blood. The Emperor had evidently not lost consciousness, for when the propo sal was made he dsitinctly said “Bear me to the palace to die.” Another police sledge now came up, and in this they placed the Emperor, supporting him on either side, for he was unable even to keep up his head. At first the sledge moved forward at a walk, but the Czar’s strength seemed to fail so rapidly that orders were given to go at a brisk trot to the pal ace. When they arrived the Emperor was unconscious, and in that condition he was carried through the gates. Phy sicians were quickly summoned to liis bedside. Surgeon Krouglevski, Dr. Botkin, Dr. Marcus and Dr. Dvoria chine obeyed the call. The last named immediately fetched such instruments as were necessary for amputating the legs. Bandages were applied. The veins were tied up in order that the bloed might flow back to the heart. The Czar recovered consciousness for a brief moment and received the sacrament from M. Bajalov, the chaplain; then his heart ceased to beat. “When the explosion took place the Czarevitch was at lunch with his family in the Amutchkoff Palace. They heard the noise with fearful forebodings. They waited in terrible anxiety, and soon an imperial equerry galloped up. The Czarevitch and his wife rushed out to meet him. They were told that the Em peror was frightfully wounded. The heir-apparent jumped into a sleigh and drove to the Winter Palace, being the first to arrive after the Grand Duke Michael. Other members of the im perial family followed. Then came many illustrious persons. Among them were Prince Soumaroff, Prince Dondukoff Korsakoff, Count MiliutiD, Count Adierberg and Count Loris Meli koff. The Emperor was not wholly unj conscious when they arrived. He open. ed his eyes and gave slight tokens that he recognized some members of his fami ly. He muttered ‘Shasha,’ the diminu tive of the hereditary Prince’s name. At the moment when he breathed his last all who were present in the chamber were kneeling in silent prayer. The events of the next few hours were deep ly affecting. As the Czarevitch left the palace he was received with enthusiastic acclamation by the crowd. The Prin cess Dolgorouki fainted away whan she heard the sad news, and remained un conscious for two hours. That same evening, accompanied by her sister and Prince Albediraki, Gov ernor of Warsaw, who is her Bister’s husband, she left St. Petersburg, being taken to the railway station in a public conveyance. It is believed that she will remain in life-long exile. It has been noticed as a strange coincidence that the day of the Czar’s death was the anniversary of Orsint’s execution, and that the spot on which the Emperor was murdered was that on which General Mezentzoff, Chief of the third section, was stabbed by his assassin. It is now inclosed and covered with turf. Im mortelles have been planted upon it. Sentries of the old regiment of the Em peror Paul, clad in picturesque uniform of the last century, stand there on guard, striving to keep back the people, who eagerly snatch at anything that can be carried off as a relic.” Good Pat. —The Finance Committee of the Philadelphia Councils has recom mended tbe passage of an ordinance fix ing the pay of the City Solicitor at $15,- 000, without fees. Heretofore the salary of this officer has been $3,600, but the fees added have made the office worth about $20,000, whilst by the provisions of the new tax bill $15,000 additional would be added.

In the Senate yeaierday, Mr. Voorhee* called up hta resolution relative to the banka, and proceeded to argue that the precedenta of the Senate were In faeor of the theory that business that did not need the co-operation of the House could be acted upon at a called session. Mr. Morrill finally withdrew his point of order, and the resolution went over till to-day, Mr. Morrill stating that If It were desired to discuss it the Republicans would be ready. Among the uominations by the Presi dent yesterday were W. H. Roberta to be Collector of Customs for the port of New York, Wm. Walter Pnelpi to be Minister to Austria, Edwin A. Merrett Consul General at London, and a number of charges d'af faires at various foreign capitals. Dispatches from Washington are to the effect that Collector Clarke, of the Second Georgia District, is to be retained, at least for the present. The extra session topic is still discussed in Washington, but the chances for one be ing called are thought to be very slight. The Boers have definitely agreed to the British terms of peace. The London Daily Mew* says Sir Erelyn Wood’s main object was to obtain guarantees for the just treat ment of the natives. The British resident will be clothed with the function of pro tecting the natives. The London Dairy Aries says Turkey is willing to cede Crete to Greece, but no part of the mainland. In the Greek Chamber on the bill to abolish exemption from mili tary service the view was taken that while Engiaad might cot take the initiative, yet If Greece were true to herself she would assist her. A bomb, with a fuse attached, was found outside the Royal Theatra in Madrid, and a secret store of rifles outside the city barriers. The French Cabinet have agreed to re main neutral in the debate on the serutm dt list*. The Paris correspondent of the Lon don hum thicks this action only staves off a crisis, and the government must express lta preference. The Russian Conservative press urges the breaking off of diplomatic relations with Switzerland, and other high handed meas ure# of reprisal, because of the refuge af forded exiles In Geneva. The Canadian Government favors an ex tensive emigration of the Irish to Mani toba and Northwest Canada. A desperado In jali at Rawlings, Wyom ing, attempted to kill the jailer and escape Wednesday night, but was foiled, and later taken out and banged to a telegraph pole by a mob of masked men. He waa under sentence for murder. General Grant has resigned the Presiden cy of the World’s Fair,.and Hugh J. Jewett has beeu chosen in his place. The engineer and fireman of an express train were killed in a smash up on the Lake Bhore Road on Tuesday night. One hundred persons are thought to have perished in the burning of the Italian Opera House in Nice last night. Fourteen bodies of persons who had suffocated were taken out. The stock market opened generally firm, and after considerable fluctuation, closed In tke main weak at the lowest figures of the day. Sales were 405,000 shares. The Rhode Island Democrats met in con vention yesterday, nominated a fall ticket, and in the resolutions adopted denounced Senator Mahone’s coarse as unmanly and treacherous. The British House of Commons, as at present constituted, is largely a land holding body. Sympathy with landlord ism in Ireland is stamped on every act *cd motion of the majority, as is the case m the House of Lords, opposition to urgently needed reforms is the rule. So it was when the Chartists clamored in the latter part of William’s and the eariy part of Victoria's reign but although the Chutist organization dropped out of sight, every reform demanded by it has been adopted since, save manhood suf frage and church disestablishment in England. The land system of Great Britain is in peril, and its upholders know it. Reform in Ireland means re form in Scotland and England, where great abuses exist, although not in the aggravated form in which they exist in Ireland. To meet reform agitation the Russian method been adopted, but the history of British repressive acts during this century in Ireland shows that they only serve to insure the ultimate realization of the relief demanded. The competition between the Pacific Mail Steamship Company and a Chinese company, which has recently instituted a steamship line between California and China, together with the late arrival of a cargo of nearly one thousand Chinese at San Francisco, will doubtless direct at tention at the probable extra session of Congress to the Chinese question. Under the new treaties, this country is granted the privilege of dealing with Chinese immigration, and the Pacific Coast is likely to push hard for restrictive legis lation. The matter constitutes one of the difficulties which confront the Re publican Congress and President, the problem being to satisfy the demands of the Pacific Coast witnout disgruntling the sentimentalists of the rest of the country. Compulsory Pilotage. —The New York Assembly has at last put the enter ing wedge into the system of compulsory pilotage, which makes navigation there so costly, by passing, by a luge majori ty, a bill for the abolition of compulsory pilotage in regard to vessels approach ing New York city by way of Long Is land sound and Hell Gate. The bill has yet to pass the Senate, and it makes no change in the conditions of Sandy Hook pilotage. But still, this ia the beginning of the long needed reform in this mat ter. If New York abolishes compulsory pilotage, other cities must follow the ex ample in self defense. General Grant Resigns. —A tele graphic dispatch announces General Grant's resignation of the Presidency of the World's Fair Commission, and the appointment of Hon. H. J. Jewett as his successor. Mr. Jewett is a popular gen theman, possessing all the requisite quali fications necessary to fit him for the po sition, and under his executive manage ment there is every reason to believe that public interest in the proposed ex hibition will be revived and the success of the enterprise secured. Tbe Supreme Court of New Hamp shire has juM decided that the State law which provides that every corporation, company or person doing an express business on any railroad in New Hamp shire ahali pay annually to the State Treasurer tor a license two per centum of the gross receipts for the year ended on Ist day of August preceding is unconsti tutional It is confidently asserted that Presi dent Garfie and “has no sort of admiration for Matthews as a politician." It is a pity that he has any admiration for him as a candidate for Supreme Court Justice. What Mr. Stephens Says About “My Friend Hill." Hon. Alexander H Stephens is re ported as having said to Mrs. Hard acre: "I am very sorry about the present stall in the Senate. The Democrat# have bungled all through this campaign, and have acted indiscreetly since. My friend Hill has given the finishing stroke. I re gret his conduct; it was very injudicious. What right had Mr. Hill to question or attack his peer? It was an outrage; a species of Jacobinism. A man is respon sible only to his own conscience,l believe Why! these caucus measures are ruinous. I will not submit to them. I will do as I think right at the time, no matter what caucus, constituents or party say. Every man, I believe, has that right Mr. Hill s speech was very unwise. Who gave him tbe right to cathechize his fellow Sena tor? He has probably lo6t us everything. Of course the administration would b&ve controlled the important commit tees, but if the Democrats had acted differently we should have been given some good places in organization. Now, I suppose, everything is strangled.” If Mr. Stephens is correctly reported he holds that a Representative in Con gress is under no obligations to respect the views of “caucus, constituents or party”—that a man who, by profess ing Democratic principles, obtains the confidence of the Democracy, and is elected by their votes to a seat in Con gress, has a perfect right, for motives of bis own, to betray that confidence and exercise the representative power with which he is thus clothed for the overthrow of the party who conferred it upon him and in favor of the party he was elected to oppose; in a word, that in our repre sentative government the will of the people is entitled to no consideration or respect—that their voice in the govern ment begins and ends with the deposit ing of their votes in ths ballot box. This may be what Mr. Stephens and “states men” of his transcendental school call “Jeffersonian Democracy,” but if it is to prevail there must be an end to our rep re sentative system of self government. If the representative power is to become a baronial prerogative to be exerted by our Senators and members of Congress irrespective of the expressed wishes or will of the constituency, we may as well abandon our party organizations, cease to prate of self-government and make the representative tenure for life. Holding the opinions attributed to him in the above paragraph, and in view of Mr. Stephens’ past record, we are not surprised to learn that he does not ap prove the course of his "friend Hill,” in unmasking the little Virginia repudiator and apostate, and exposing his bad faith and duplicity to the scorn and con tempt of all honorable men. For tbe honor of Georgia we may congratulate ourselves that Mr. Stephens has not in the House, as at present composed, the same opportunity that Mahone availed himself of in the Senate, to astound the country and gratify his overweaning ambition, regardless of the will of his “constituency and the party.” Manitoba Railroads Seeking Uni ted States Connections. —The prov ince of Manitoba proposes to go into railroad building on an extensive scale. It does not seem disposed to wait for the slow progress of the Canada Pacific, but is seeking an outlet through our Northwest ern Slates for its products. Application is about to be made to the Provincial Legislature for charters for three several railroads, all starting from Winnipeg, the capital of Manitoba, and terminating at the United States frontier. The Win nipeg Southern is to run to West Lynne, on the boundary line between Manitoba and the United States. The Winnipeg Southeastern is projected to strike the United States boundary in the State of Minnesota, and an act of incorporation is asked for a third railroad, to be known as the Winnipeg and West Lynne, which would seem to be a competing line with the Winnipeg Southern. The South eastern will probably form connection with one of the roads leading to St Paul, Minnesota. The other two, if both are built, will connect by a branch road with the Northern Pacific, to which it prom ises to be an important tributary, as tbe distance from Winnipeg to Duluth is but 480 miles, while the distance from Win nipeg to Toronto is 1,110 miles. The new Czar seems to persist in the mistaken notion of his predecessor that he can make his throne safe by courting the peasantry and granting concessions to them alone. The Emperor Napoleon 111., after trying the virtue of the plebis cite two or three tjraes, was finally con strained, by the force of the Orsini bombs, to carry out his pledges U> the Mariamne and enter upon the Italian war of liberation. In “despotisms tempered by assassination," as it would be well for Alexander lIL to understand, it is not the majority which rules, but precisely the opposite. The acceding Emperor has to make Wm; with the educated people of his empire, the most active, the smallest, the most disaffected class of his people. They supplement with intelligence what they lack in numbers, and any partial or temporary conces sions he may make will simply increase the number of this class, without dim inishing the extent of their disaffection. The Revs. Reecher and Talmage, says the Elevated Baitway Journal, are hold ing revivals in Brooklyn, affording most enjoyable variety entertainments to the ignorant and excitable rabble whose life almost depends upon sensationalism, and disgusting true Christian men and women who believe that regeneration can alone be wrought by the Holy Spirit, and that aincerj can be converted only through its quickening power. Such people detest quackery, especially when it assumes the livery of Heaven, dis graces tbe pulpit, and defiles religion. Surely earnest Christian men and women have cause for regret when coarse raoun tebanks, vulgar sensationalists and hypo critical knaves have the blasphemous effrontery to advertise themselves as re ligious revivalists. Pope Leo shows a liberal spirit in writing to the Catholic Bishops of Rus sia instructing them to have requiem masses said in all their churches for the late Czar. An equally striking exempli fication of the same feeling is the Pope’s order to the Russian Bishops to issue pas torals enjoining loyalty to Alexander lIL There is no reason to doubt that the amiable relations existing between the Russian Government and the Roly Bee, at the time of the Emperor's death, will be continued under his successor. Tbe greater part of the last Spanish Council presided over by King Alfonso was devoted tc .deliberation on the in structions to be telegraphed to General Blanco ordering him to initiate more vigorous investigations and unsparing prosecutions of tbe authors and their accomplices concerned in the fresh frauds that he has again discovered in the civil and Treasury departments in Cuba. A Vital Issue Before the Country. We published on Tuesday morning a lengthy and interesting account of tha free trade alliance recently formed in Washington by the Democratic members of the Forty-sixth Congress, for the pur pose of carrying on a campaign In the interest of free trade. It seems that the principles of this alliance are in brief (1) to bring Urn vital issue squarely before the country, and institute a vigorous contest over it; (2) to work steadily to wards an abolition of a high tariff, and (3) to advocate, until free trade can be established in the country, a tariff for revenue only, with what incidental pro tection such a tariff would afford. The Democratic leaders, composing this alliance, are acting entirely consist ently in adopting the course above set forth- Free trade is essentially a Demo cratic doctrine, for it is not only one of the original teachings of the Democratic party, but it is emphatically a doctrine of the people, inasmuch as it operates for the benefit of the masses and against monopolists. We have more than once, in these columns, dwelt upon this subject. A protective tariff means, in plain words, nothing more nor less than levying a double tax upon the people. The consumer class— which includes all classes, with the exception of the manufacturers them selves—are taxed, in the first place, heavily for the support of favored in dividuals. Then, as the protected arti cles, being largely shut out from com merce, pay no revenue to the govern ment and a revenue must be had, the people are taxed a second time to supply the deficit which would have accrued to the Treasury, were a revenue tariff required of importers of the excluded articles. Noth ing can be plainer than this proposition, and nothing can be more unjust than for the great masses of the people of this republic to be doubly taxed under the pretext that certain industries must be protected, but in reality to enrich a few individuals. Such a doctrine is wholly undemocratic and directly opposed to the spirit of the Constitution, since it tends towards the establishment of a privileged class, which is emphatically prohibited by the organic law of the land. Recognizing, however, that while there is such a large national debt to be provi ded for, free trade, pure and simple, is an impossibility, this alliance proposes to give such incidental protection to Ameri can industries as a tariff for revenue must necessarily bestow. Hence it is proposed to gradually reduce the tariff to a revenue basis by placing on the free list all articles which pay little or no rev enue; by imposing the heaviest burden of revenue duty upon such articles of foreign manufacture which cannot readily be produced in this country, and by placing an import duty on all articles manufactured in this country, and which pay an internal revenue tax, equal to such tax. In this way, while free trade is still tho ultimate object in view, incidental protection, sufficient to give American industries a fair start, will be guaranteed by a revenue tariff until the national debt is extinguished; and this will probably not be the case duriDg the present generation. Thus, while there will be no legislation for the personal benefit of any special class, the protectionists will not be able consistently to raise any seri ous objection to the movement, since they have invariably claimed that they favor a high tariff, not for the advantage of the few, but only that certain enter prises may be protected during infancy, and until they are able to stand alone. We are glad that the Democratic mem bers aforementioned have determined to make their new campaign boldly upon this issue. The party has too long co quetted with the protectionists and monopolists on this subject, and it is ap issue at once national, democratic, and calculated to destroy sectionalism in politics, By such a campaign the eyes of the people will be opened. They will learn that a free trade policy would fcp largely for their best interests as well as for the best interests of the commerce of the country, since they would not only be freed from double taxation for the benefit of a privileged class of manufacturers, but, as Hon. Mr. Hurd, ef Ohio, a pr ime mover in this alliance, truly remarked, if free trade be estab lished, not only will our home products find a largerjmarket, but vessels entering our ports would bring with them larger cargoes, and the tyjtple country would be benefited. On the aLhe? hand, if we erect barriers against the importation of foreign products, foreign nations will erect barriers against us just as high. If, knowing and appreciating fully these facts as they would have to know and appreciate them if brought into notice through a political campaign, the people still see fit to vote in favor of imposing a heavy tribute on themselves for the benefit of the fey, they will do so deliberately; but the Democratic party will have done its duty. The bright, mirthful soul of Carpenter wsa not overawed even by the shadow of death. evening before he died, and after he had been told that he could not possibly survive much longer, ire insisted upon getting up. The attending physi cians forbade the attempt, and were en deavoring to make the Senator remain quiet, when Judge McArthur entered the death chamber. ‘‘ls that you, Mac?” asked Carpenter. “Yes, Matt, it’s I. But you must lie quiet now. The old twinkle of the eyes and the toss of the head, as the dying Senator replied f “Well, Judge, I’m prepared to argue that motion right now.” Mr. Carpenter suffered excrutiating pain, and in his agony wanted an explanation of the cause. “The pain is paused, Senator,” replied a physician, “by a stoppage of the colon. 1 “istoppaee of the colon, eh?’’—and again t of humor over came pain itself—-“Weil of course, it isn’t a full stop. —J (ihetiuite liepulU can. The colon is not a “full stop,” but it is generally used to signify that there is something to follow after- And this suggests a subject on which the minds of most people in the dying Senator’s condition would have been employed. The “three P's” agitation—fixity of tenure, fair rent and free sale—which the Irish Home Rulers so loudly clam ored for, has spread into England, and is daily growing in force and strength there. The movement was inaugurated by Joseph Arch, who organized the Agricultural Laborers’ Association, four or five years ago. New clubs are being formed every day, and there is little doubt but that in a short time a demand will be made on the government for some change in the land laws. It is said that Gladstone is not averse to this demand, and will probably grant the advocates of the “three P’s” much that they ask for. New York is to have another sensa tion in the fasting line. One John Gris com is bent on eclipsing Tanner or perishing. On April 15th he is to begin a forty-two days’ fast. This, as is an nounced, is to be “purely a scientific test of human endurance, and will be under the supervision of the professors of Rush Medical College.” The Xafcoee Bmnratn Repudiated by Respectable Republicans, It ia creditable to the more respectable sort of Republicans that they do not affect to misunderstand the conduct of Senator Mahone. Whether the admin istration of President Garfield is to gain or lose in the end by a transaction which for the moment at least puts it, so far as nominations and appropriations go, un der the control of a Senatorial ring formed by Vice President Arthur, Sena tor Mahone and Senator Conkling, re mains to be seen. But however this may turn out, it is a wholesome sign of the times to see the subject dealt with as it is in the following extract from the Philadelphia American of the current week, by Republicans who speak for that element of their party which is represented in the Cabinet of President Garfield by Attorney General MacYeigh: “The Republicans have won in the struggle for the organization of the Senate, but we could have wished them a more honorable victory. Mr. Mahone, of Virginia, having cut loose from all allegiance to the Democratic party and gone over to the Republicans, creates a tie in the body which the casting vote of Vice President Arthur will decide in favor of the Republicans. Asa matter of course, the Democrats were very sore over this desertion, and expressed it in language as strong as the courtesies of the Senate allowed. At this some Re publican papers, as well as some Re publican Senators, profess to be very in dignant, and undertake to shield Mr. Mahone—poor lambi—from these iuju rious aspersions. The plain truth is that Mr. Mahone was elected to the Senate by Democrats and as a Democrat, and never professed to be anything else until this debate. It ia true that he needed and received some Republican votes, but these were given him for a price which was paid, and that bargain was closed. His faction of the party indorsed the nomination of General Hancock, and put before the people a list of electors pledged to vote for him. It is not so long since these very newspapers and Senators would have resented as slanderous the insinu ation that they had any affiliation with Mr. Mahone or he with them, and would have used language as strong as that em ployed in this debate by Senator Hill and other Southerners. It is true that Mr. Hill, with his unhappy record in the secession business, should not have put himself forward in the matter; but the plea ‘you’re another’ is of no force out side aboys’ playground. As regards Mr. Davis, of Illinois, that retort is not even true. Mr. Davis was elected under cir cumstances which left him free to vote with either party a3 he pleased. He has not, like Mr. Mahone, deliberately be trayed a political trust. It is humiliating to find in such papers as the Tribune and the Times of New York whole columns of sophistry in defense of Mr. Mahone’s action and in praise of the man for whom both of these papers could hardly find things bitter enough to say; and it is still more so to be told that on his desk next morning stood a basket of flowers fiom the White House conservatory, sent with Mr. Garfield’s compliments. The Springfield Republican, the lead ing Republican paper in New England, says: “If Mahone lived in any Northern State—barriDg Minnesota—every Repub lican Senator would fight him at home and denounce him in the Senate. If Mahone lived in Massachusetts, it he was the boss of an ignorant vote, if he bad attacked the credit of the State and proposed tho repudiation of bonds, Sen ator Hoar would fight him day in and day opt, at home apd in Congress, in caucus, convention and at the polls. Mahone is all these thiDgs in Virginia, and the fact should have moderated Senator Hoar’s enthusiasm. Mahone is also the champion of a free and some what ignorant vote. He has defended the suffrages of the black man, among other ways by opposing a poll tax. If he breaks the solid South as Boss Kelly split the ignorant vote of New York city, good may come of it, but Kei y’s bargain with the Arthur Conkling ma chine was not an alliance decent men cared to trumpet, and the voice of Mas saebusetts should have been silent over Mahone’s appearance in the Republican columns. A split in tbe South is to be desired; but a split which marshals the ignorant vote of Virginia under a dema gogue in support of repudiation must, at best, be accepted as an evil out of which good may come, but over which there is no call for praise and prophecy. Nor is there in the thinly disguised bargain in which Mahone has named his price and got it. If, as there is unfor tunately some reason to believe, Federal patronage within the State of Virginia has figured in the transaction, President Garfield’s administration has taken a step downward which every good man will regret The Republican party can gain nothing worth having by supporting a man like Mahone in his own State, where the State issue is repudiation and he is a Repudiator. In the Senate other issues are uppermost; but a man bad political ly in Virginia cannot be politically praise worthy in Washington. Mahone’s vote may yet prove to be dear at any price; and in any cause, transactions like those which apparently accompany his transfer from the Democratic to the Republican column must be condemned as wrong.” A Norifcsrn and Eastern Bound Ne gro Exodus. If an evidently well informed Topeka (Kansas) correspondent of the Chicago Tribune is to be relied upon, the North ern and Eastern States are about to wit ness an immense influx of negroes from the South, under an organization of the Kansas State Freedman's Association, who have undertaken to direct the move ment The correspondent says: “The Kansas association is advised that many thousands of these people can find homej apd employment in the great States of Illinois,' lowa, Indiana, and as far east as Fennsyl vania and Massa chusetts, if they will go there. It is stated upon authority that Massachusetts alone will welcome forty thousand of them, and furnish constant and remu nerative employment. With the inten tion of making such a distribution of the new comers, and f or the purpose of supplying whatever demand may be made this year from any part of the North for laborers, a national associa tion is to be formed, with headquarters at Cairo—that being considered the most favorable point for an intelligent direc tion of the movement, as most of the exodusters make their first stop there on the way from Tennessee, Missis sippi, Kentucky and Louisiana. These four States furnish the great majority of the refugees—all of them, in fact, except those who come ip from Texas. It is weli known that most of theip, fipon landing at Cali?, be sent to Kansas, as so manj A m friends reside there, and they have heard of nothing but Kansas for the last two years; hehce'it will be difficult to change their course. But, upon a pjroper repre sentation of the facts by those familiar with the subject, it is thought the bulk pf the anticipated exodus can be divert ed into localities offering better advan tages than can be found in Kansas.” Bad Show for Mb. Matthews.— There now seems, says the Washington Star, to be no flattering prospect of the confirmation of the nomination of ex- Senator Matthews as an Associate Justice of the United States Supreme Court. As the new Judiciary Committee is arrang ed, there is only one member of it who will vote for his confirmation, Mr. La mar, of Mississippi. This leaves only one chance for Mr. Matthews, and that is to have the committee discharged from the further consideration of the nomina tion and get a direct vote on the nomina tion by the Senate. The impression is abroad, too, that the President is apa thetic as to whether he is confirmed pr not It is said he sent his name in be cause of a policy determined upon to re nominate all of tbe appointments made by ex President Hayes which failed of confirmation at the last session. The friends of Mr. Matthews are exceeding ly despondent, and have now but little hope of his confirmation. Th Lease la a Lecal View. Augusta Ckrvnisis and Wa present this morning an article from a Georgia Railroad stockholder op posing a lease of that road by the Central, upon legal and constitutional grounds. His points are fairly made, and he argues from an evident and honest purpose to prevent any lease of the Georgia Rail road. Where stockholders and officials of both companies, however, seem so determined to effect some such combina tion, and where matters have ripened into open negotiation, it is presumable that all legal obstructions have been anti cipated. We confess apprehension less the spirit of the statutes be evaded by some arrangement which will allow private stockholders of the Central, or other railroads, to lease the Georgia Railroad, nominally in their own per sonal interests, but really for control by the corporation they represent. The charter of the Central Railroad, an amendment of which the Chronicle yes terday published, allows that company to lease roads “which now, or may here after, have their lines connecting with that railroad.” The Supreme Court, our correspondent, “Stockholder,” says, hold that “the charter of the Central Railroad gives it no right to control any road that may be a competitor to it.” And yet it is well known that the Central Railroad has, time and agaiD, leaded roads that “may have been competitors to it.” The Augusta and Waynesboro Railroad was built to open up that section for Augusta, and as a feeder to Augusta’s sea coast connection at Charleston; and yet the Central Rail road, so soon as it commenced to operate injuriously against it, leased it for ninety nine years. Has it not always been Mr. Wadley’s policy to get control of all connecting, competing or conflict ing lines? The Georgia Railroad, cer tainly “connects” with the Central; in the proposed lease, indeed, it is endeav ored to be shown that the lease is to be formed, not for the destruction of either line, but for the protection of both. “Stockholder” also calls attention to par. IV., section 11., article 11., of the constitution of Georgia: The General Assembly of this State shall have no power to authorize any corporation to buy shares or stock, in this State or elsewhere, or to make any contract or agreement what ever, with any such corporation, which may have the effect, or be intended to have the ef fect, to defeat or lessen competition in their respective businesses, or to encourage monopo ly; and all such contracts shall be illegal and void. Obviously, the defense of the lease must be that its object is to break down outside monopoly, and to increase com petition in Georgia. Paragraph 11., of the above section says that “no provision of this article shall be deemed, held or taken to impair the obligation of any contract heretofore made by the State of Georgia. The amendment to the char ter of the Central Railroad, approved in 1852, granting their right to lease con necting lines, is a vested right, not an nulled by this constitution. Any amend ment to the Central’s charter giving them the right to lease the Georgia Railroad would operate as a novation to their charter and bring it under the provis ions of the constitution; but as any like application would also turn loose the State powers of taxation upon the Cen tral Railroad and ail its branches, it is not at all probable that such an amend ment will be asked for. The Georgia Railroad will simply be leased under the conditions of controlling “connecting lines.” Exactly what a “connecting” line is will be the only question to set tip. To the Chronicle, it seems that the pro visions of this lease are well laid and deep rooted. Whether it will be effect ed in a way that the courts can take hold of it or not, remains to be seen. That it will be unpopular in this section, we well know, and were such a plan consum ated, it Jmay incite harsh legislation against railroads by the State General Assembly in the future. The people are viewing the powerful combinations of corporations and all tendency to monop oply with great distrust, The State of Georgia was among the first to adopt a system of legislation regulating railroads. Such principles were fixed by General Toombs, in our organic law, be fore the abuse of power had grown flagrant in the South, and before extor tion in tariff had become noticeable. The legislation which was thereby prompted should have been moderate q,nd conservative, necessitating neither heroic measures,nor arbitrarylregulations. Such is the feeling among the people, that they might now favor limiting the powers of the Railroad Commission, and diminish the tendency to injure valuable railroad property in Georgia. These, then, are the reasons why the Chronicle deprecates all efforts for consolidated power, and all treaties for railroad monopoly. Judge Woods rightly said that the foundation of wise and innoxu ous legislation lay in the virtue and in telligence of the citizens of the State. It is to the interest of all r ail road compa nies, then, in Georgia, to educate public opinion, as they have developed public resources; to abuse neither the rights of their customer? nor their chartered privi leges; for their best defense is in the General Assembly, and their highest tribunal rests in the fayor of the people. World’s Fair Subscriptions. A special meeting of the World’s Fair Executive Committee was held in New York on Saturday. The following new subscriptions were announced: Lord Taylor, $5,000; John Matthews, $1,000; James B. Colgate, $2,500; Tefft, Urellen Cos., $2,500; Charles SchlesiDger, $4,- 000 (additional); Lawrence Drake, $5,- 000, and Frederick R. Mead, through C. N. Bliss, $5,000. These, with the subscriptions of F. L. Tolcott of $20,- 000 and of Cornelius Vanderbilt of SIO,OOO, made a total of $996,- 410. Mr. Theodore Moss, who was elected a member of the committee a few days ago, sub* scribed $3,000, but when informed of the total he changed his subscription to $3,590, making exactly $1,000,000 sub scribed. Colonel Stebbms, in calling the meeting to order, saSl that the Rev. Dr. Newman had requested the commit tee to arrange for a meeting before the next regular day. The idea evidently was that before the next meeting some thing might occur of importance to the committee, and it was intended to af ford an opportunity to the person most concerned—General Grant—to send a communication to the committee. Col onel Stebbins said that neither he nor the secretary had received any communica tion. The special object of the meeting had therefore failed. General William H. Stirling, of New Jersey, presented a copy of a bill now up in the New Jersey Assembly for its third reading, by which the Governor is authorized to appoint a commissioner from each Congressional district of the State, who, with the United States Com missioners, shall form a commission to attend to New Jersey’s interests at the World’s Fair. General Stirling said the Senate would undoubtedly pass the bill and that Governor Ludlow had assured him that he would sign it. Mr. Samuel A. Haines said that while at Indianapolis recently the Indiana Assembly had pass ed a bill appioprt&ting *25,000 to be on the State exhibit. For the s P e Exhibi same purpose at uie ..j tion only $5 000 had been appropriates. Governor Porter has promisl to sign the bill. The committee decided to no tify the public of the fact that $1,000,000 had been subscribed. It then went into executive session and audited the bills for expenses already incurred. They amounted to about $2,000. It was said that the next step would be to raise an other million.

Mrs. Homespun threw down the paper and pulled off her spectacles with a vicious jerk. “It’s perfectly scand’lous!” she exclaimed. “For my part, I can’t see how any respectable woman could ever wear such a thing as that. When I was a gal we used to wear low necks and short sleeves; but mercy!”—and here she cast a withering glance at the paper in her lap before flinging it upon the floor. “Why, what is the matter, aunt!” asked Cicely, picking up the paper. “Matter! matter enough, I should say! cried the excited old lady “just look at that fash ion plate there, if you are not ashamed to look at it. It is perfectly scand’lous, I say.” “Why, auntl” said Cicely, her eyes brimming with fun, “that is only a liver pad picture I” “I don’t care what kind of ntw-fangled name they give to it,” persisted her aunt; ‘it’s scand’lous and disgraceful, and no woman that’s got a spark of modesty about her would ever be seen in one of them.

Baker, which occurred yesterday morning about half past ten o’clock in this city, after a alight indisposition of a few days, excited deep regret among hi3 many acquaintances, and was a great shock to them. Several days mDco he was aillicted with a cold, which settled in his throat, but was not considered very serious, although he was confined to his room. Inflammation of the brain ensued, however, and death resulted, as stated, yesterday morning. Mr. Baker was a native of Fay etteville, N. C-, and came to Savannah about three years ago and established the fLtn of G| D. Baker A Cos., manufactur ers of turpentine stills, and was doing a flourishing business. He was enterprising, euergetie and industrious, and had many friends here. He was only twenty three years of age, but had developed busi ness capacity ratner remai table in one so young. His remains were sent to his home by the Charleston and Savannah Railway train yesterday afternoon. Complimentary to a Sayanuah Singer. We find the following pleaeant notice in the Atlanta CotulUution of Mrs. Ida F. Wade, a lady well and favorably known in the musical circles of this, her native city; “The Second Baptist Church la Atlanta,at its last regular conference, unanimously vot ed to have this sweet singer re employed at soprano for their choir, the organization of which, with Mr. Sidney Root as tenor, Mrs. Ida F. Wade as soprano, Miss Ida W. Dun can as alto and Mrs. Davis as bass, Profes sor Kruger at the organ and Mr. Wurm with the cornet is complete. We can prom ise all who may attend service at this church, the resident as well as the stranger, who may be la our midst, a real soul-feast both, in music and the preached word.”

In yesterday’s Moknin* Naws mention was made of a very serious riot on Bryan street in the vicinity of the Market Tuesday evening, in which some seventeen negroes were engaged,and four were arrested. Yester day morning these negroes, who had been lodged in the barracks for safe keeping, were turned over on a warrant issued byMagistra's Naughtin, and were committed to jail. It appears that Magistrate Naughtin had issued a warrant against Albert James Coats,on the charge of carrying concealed weapons, and discovering his man In tbe barroom of a colored man named Brown, he called upon Constable Folllard, who chanced to be In the vicinity, to assist him in making the arrest. Magistrate Naughtin was known to Coats, and be was apprehensive that he would be recognized and that Coats would escape If he saw him. So Constable Fol liard was requested to enter the place and capture Coats, who is a West India negro, powerfully strong and a regular desperado. He was standing at the bar when Constable Folliard approached and laid his hand upon him. Coats spoke in a very abusive manner, and struck Folliard a fearful blow In the face. A fierce struggle ensued. Con stable Folllard, however, hung on to the rascal, and after a rough and tumble fight, succeeded In dragging him to the door, when Magistrate Naughtin seized him and struck him over the head. The fellow tumbled to tbe sidewalk, feigning insensi bility for a few minutes, when a crowd of negroes gathered from various directions and surrounded the officers. Suddenly, Coats sprang to his feet, dealt Constable Folliard a blow In tbe face and made a dash for the barroom. The officers attempted to follow, when the negroes obstructed their passage and another row followed. In the meantime Coats managed to escape. Three of the other ;negroes, Vance, Bmith and Moore, were arrested and carried to the bar racks. About nine o’clock Constable Sim mons, colored, who is attached to Magis trate Naughtin’s office, encountered Coats In Yam&craw, and attempted to arrest him. Constable Endres was passing on the street at the time when Constable Simmons called on him for assistance. Coat* was still in a warlike mood, and was very defiant and abusive, fighting with savage ferocity and using the foulest language. In the melee he succeeded In bltiDg Endres on the hand as was stated. Fortunately Sergt. Harvey, of the police force, came up about this time and through his efforts the desperado was secured, and after extreme difficulty, resisting the entire way, was landed in the barracks. Yester day morniDg Coats was arraigned in the Police Court on the charge of disorderly conduct In tbe streets, and was fined $lO or thirty days. He will also have to answer the other charge before the Superior Court. Superior Court. Hon. Wm. B. Flbming, Judge, presiding. Court convened at 10 a, m. yesterday, when the following proceedings were had: State vs. Edward Tilman and Charles Fa gin. Simple larceny. Verdict: “We, the jury, find the defendants not guilty. F.

NERVOUS DEBILITY, or any OBSTRUC TIONS arising from KIDNEY or BLADDER DISEASES. Also for YELLOW FEVER, BLOOD and KIDNEY POISONING, in infected malarial sections. IW~ By the distillation of a FOREST LEAF witb JUNIPER BERRIES and BARLEY MALT we have discovered KIDNEGEN, which acts specifically on the Kidneys and Urinary Organs, re moving deposits in the bladder and any straining, 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 will like it, and Gen tlemen will find KIDNEGEN the best Kidney Tonic ever used!
