Marvellous Vitality. (JIITEAI TALKS AGAIN. TRIBUTES OF SORROW. All Creeds, All Classes, All Peoples, ot One Heart aud Oue Hope. From Our Special C rrespondent. Washington, July 4.—This morning the President rallied aud continued to grow stronger until about I p. m. Then he began to grow worse. The symptoms of peritonitis returned. The pain lu hie lower limbs grew more stiong. He continued to go down until about nine o’clock to night, and the worst was feared in a very short time. It was even thought at one time that he was dylDg, but his wonderful vitality returned to him, and there has been a slight improvement. The improvement at this hour is very slight, but is sufficient to buoy up the hopes of the anxious throng that is assembled lu front of tbe White House and around the bulletin boards. It he lives during the night he has a fair chance for recovery, but it is feared that he may not live. His life bangs by a mere thread. It may snap at ary time. He has been vomiting i ff and on during the day. but has been able to retain tome milk and beef tea on bis stomach. There have been slight evidences of internal hemorrhage. Tbe Cabinet officers remained at the White House until early this morning. Their wives are also there. Mrs. Garfield is the only one, besides the physicians, who is allowed access to his room at any time. The ladies of the Cabinet are allowed in now andtnen and fan him. He says but little. Late to-night he made the remark that he felt weak, but had hopes of recovery. His strong will never breaks. The bulletins of bis condition, Issued by the physicians in attendance, continue more favorable than the real state of the case warrants. It can but be repeated that if be recovers, his will be one of the most mi raculous cases on record. Although to-day is the 4:h of July, the city has been very quiet. Ooly now and then the exploding of fireworks could be heard. None have been fired within hear ing distance of the White House. Usually there is an almost Insufferable noise iu the celebration of the fourth. Very few people left the city on excursions. Usually there is an exodus. These facts illustrate the deep feeling and interest In the President’s welfare. Vice President Arthur has remained very quietly at his quarters on Capitol Hill. He is with Senator Jones, of Nevada. He 16 not allowed to show himself on the streets as an ordinary man. Vague fears are enter tained that an attempt may be made on his life. Those fears appear to be groundless, but tbey illustrate the unsettled condition of affairs produced by the shooting of the President. more of guiteau. George Scovill, a Chicago lawyer, and brother-in-law of Guiteau, arrived in the city Sunday night. Tc-day he had a long Interview with the assassin, in the presence of the United States District Attorney. Scovill says Guiteau Is certainly itisaut 6eut, tbe following telegram: To Hon. Amos Townsend, Cleveland, O.: 'lhe President’s condition has not mate rially changed siuce morning. At this hour, half-past two, be is suffering less pain. He is entirely calm and courageous. His mind is clear, and he accepts whatever fate God may ordain for him with perfect resigna tion and with a sublime Christian faith. We are profouuilly anxious, aud yet hopeful as to the final result. Jas. G. Blaine. RETAINING CHICKEN BROTH. 5:15 P. m. —The President partook of a quau'ity of chicken broth a short, time ago and has retained it. He is resting about the same as when his condition was last re ported. GRAVE APPREHENSIONS. 4:30 p. M —Dr. Woodward, in conversa tion with Secretary Hunt, about fifteen minutes ago, said there was no perceptible change iu the President’s condition, and that his symptoms were very favorable. 6:20 P. m.— There Is a strong feeling out side of the While House that the President’s condition Is more critical at this time than It has yet been. This impression rests, un doubtedly, on remarks privately made by those who are conversant with the case, and whose avenues of information are of the best possible character. No official bulletin will probably be Issued at present, aud it is held that the physicians in attendance are deferring a bulletin, iu hopes that a change for the better wlil occur shortly. Tbe anxiety, which has certainly been very intense all the afternoon, has certainly deepened a great deal in the last hour, and In the city, at least, the gravest apprehen sions are entertained of a fatal issue. MOHE TYMPANITIS. 7:45 p m.—The President this evening is not so comfortable. He does not suffer so much from paiu in his feet. Tbe tympanitis is again more noticeable. Pulse 126, temper ature 101.9, respiration 24. Another bulle tin will be Issued at 10 p. m., after which, Id order not to disturb the President un necessarily, no further bulletin will be is sued until to morrow morning. D. W. Bliss, J. K. Barnes, J. J. Woodward, Robt. Reyburn. RELUCTANT TO GIVE AN OPINION. Executive Mansion,, 9:2o p. m —The President’s condition to-night is admitted by his attending physicians to be more un favorable than it has been during tbe day, but the change is not regarded as especially alarming, for tbe reason that bis increased pulse and temperature, which are the most marked feature, were obsorved at about the same time on Saturday evening and last evening and last night. Tbe day, too, has been extremely warm and close, and the President has been more or less restless from that cause, and the pain, due to the laceration of the nerves leading to the feet. The attending physicians are very reluctant to express any positive opinion upon the facts stated In to night’s official bulletin, but they are hopeful that his tem perature will fall and his pulse grow less rapid during the night, as was the case last night, and that the condition of the patient to-morrow morning will not be worse than It was this morning. Should these anticipa tions be realized, the attending physicians say they will have very strong hopes of the President’s final recovery. Bince the date of the last bulletin (7:45 p. m his temperature and pulse has slightly decreased, which is taken as an indication that tbe views above expressed are not with out foundation. At the present time, all that can be positively said is that the situation of the President is critical, but that there are indications of an abatement of the unfavorable symp toms. Pos’master General James and Secretary Hunt express themselves as con fidently hopeful that the President’s con dition will improve during the night, as It did last night, and that there will then be very strong reasons for expecting his final recovery. A BLIGHT AMELIORATION. Executive Mansion, 10 p. m.—There has been a slight amelioration of tbe symp toms during the past two hours. Tr.ere was no vomiting duriDg that period. Pulse 124, temperature 101, respiration 24. In order not to disturb the President unnecessarily no further bulletins will be issued until to morrow morning. D. W. Bliss. J. K. Barnes. J. J. Woodward. Robert Reyburn. THINKING ONLY OF THE BULLETINS. Dispatches from all directions report that the celebration of Independence day bad been abandoned, and a feeling of anxiety prevails, attention being concentrated upon the bullet ins of the condition of the Presi dent received from this city. BRBAKING THE NEWS TO HIS VENERABLE MOTHER. Executive Mansion, July 4.—President Garfield’s mother Is now with her daughter, Mrs. Larabee, at Solon, Ohio. Owing to the recent death of Thomas Garfield, the President’s uncle, the news of the President’s assassination was not broken to tbe old lady until Sunday morning. A telegram received by a member of tbe family to-day stated that when the sad news was imparted to her the old lady very calmly remarked: “God help me.” This was all she said at the time. Since then, however, more en couraging news has been forwarded regard ing the President’s condition. PRESIDENT CHADBOUBNS’S VIEWS. Williamstown, Maes., July 2 —ln an interview this morning President Chad bourne said that there were two gentlemen here, alumni of Williams College, who knew tbe President’s assassin as a crack brained lawyer, who had figured in Milwau kee and Chicago, asd he, with others, cos- SAVANNAH, TUESDAY, JULY 5, 1881.

Mr. Gladstone’s statement in the House of Commons to day respecting the attempt on Mr. Garfield’s life, was as follows: “YVe cannot be surprised that tbe question has arisen In regard to the inspiration of the outrage upon PresidentGarfleld, tbe charac ter of which is such as to attract the atten tion of the whole civilized world, and which so greatly affects the feeltDgs and welfare of a nation which is not oi iy friendly to us, but which is growing more friendly yearly. The publfc has been supplied with extraordinary rapidity with the information of the ®eiu a’ionsin tbe terrible trial which the Presi dent has been called upon to undergo.” In the House of Lords Earl Granville said that the sympathy of all classes in England was Increased every hour, and that it was not less strong than that felt in America itself.

London, July 4.—The social celebrations of Independence Day at Liverpool were postponed. The Liverpool Courier says: “The American people will find that their brethren can sympathize with them. No where In the world will this generous and spontaneous sympathy be more sincere than in England, or more cordial than in Liver pool, whose pulse beats In unison with tbe trans-Atlantic people.” The Liverpool Ibst says: “Tbe world holds its breath at the now scarcely con ceivable development of the fatal Holliday mania which has in so many directions en croached upon the security and amenity of public life. We learn from this dire event that lands where the popular voice selects their rulers are as accessible as others to tbe foul contagion.” KIND WISHES FROM JAPAN.

This is such an occasion, and no courage, no com fort, except those which come to Christian hearts from God's Word can meet our wants. All pain must find some articulate cry, but the only cry that can alleviate our pain is that cry to God, which his ministers can best utter. The love of the people for the President is not mis placed. He has a great, brave, affectionate heart. He loves his country. He has high conception of a pure administration, and if we are to lose him it will be the greatest single calamity, except the death of Lin coln,that has ever fallen upon this country, Senator Hoar spoke of his own close per sonal relations with the President, and of his glorious NewEogland ancestry,who par ticipated in the first struggle of the revoiu tion. “Their nohle qualities,” said Senator Hoar, “have descended to him. God grant that this precious life, this brave soul, thisteeming brain may be spared! God grant that in this hour of peril all may share the faith and courage which fill his own soul.” Several other addresses were made. A GREAT MEETING IN BANGOR, MAINE. Bangor, Me July 4.—The streets have been thronged with people from all the surrounding country, but the grave situa tion at Washington casts a heavy shadow over an otherwise festive celebra’ion of In dependence day. At 10:30 a. m. the pro cession formed, and .marched over a short rou’e with drums muffled, and the troops carried reversed arms, and wore crape on their collars In token of the public sorrow at the critical condi tion of the Chief Magistrate. The procession marched to the First Parish Church, where a great concourse had as sembled, and a meeting was organized. The venerable Chief Justice Appleton pre sided, and made some brief, feeling remarks, aa did also ex-Vice President Hamlin, Judge John E. Peters, C. A. Bou te le and others, on the attempted asssassina tion of President Garfield, after which appropriate resolutions of sympathy for the President and family were unanimously adopted. GOOD WISHES FROM AUGUSTA. Augusta, Ga., July 4—The City Council of Augusta has adopted resolutions express ing sorrow and indignation at the attempt to assassinate President Garfield, extending sympathy to his family and expressing the hope that the President may be spared to discharge for the good of the country the important duties of his exalted position. Mayor May was instructed to telegraph the resolutions to tbe Department ot State. ANXIETY IN MOBILE.

Mr. Alvord called for the absentees, and said that the members of this convention, in tbe shadow of the great calamity resting on tbe country, who should try to defeat the election of a United States Senator by re fusing to vote, were In contempt. Mr. Bogan said that if he believed he could defeat the election of a Republican Senator by withholding his vote he would withhold it. Mr. Hurd stated that he was paired with Mr. S. R Wells, but, as he believed, It was on the leading candidate, therefore, if his vote was needed for a quorum he would vote. It was not found necessary for Mr. Hurd to vote. The chair declared that no choice hfd been made and the convention adjourned. YESTERDAY IN CHARLESTON. Tbe Rifle and Artillery Contests—A Riot In tbe market. Charleston, 8.

Policeman Kearney, of the Island pre cinct, who first tried to arrest the assassin, mkes the following statement of the shoot ing: “Guttean arrived at the depot about half an hour ahead of the Presidential party, and moved about and acted quite restless. The officer’s attention was attracted by his movements, but he did not watch the assas sin particularly until he heard him ask a hackman at the Sixth street depot if he could drive him off in a hurry if required. ‘I thought,’ said Kearney, ‘that that was a peculiar thing, but before I could follow it up closer I saw the President’s party driv ing down Sixth street to the depot, and I had to go and look after them. They drove to the B street entrance. Secretary Blaine was with the President, and the two entered the depot together. The President walked up to me and asked how much time he had before the train left. It was twenty minutes after nine o’clock, 1 saw by looking at my watch, and I told the President that he bad ten minutes. Just as he thanked me I heard a pistol shot, and, turning, I saw the man that I had been watchlug previously standing about ten foct away, in the shadow of the main entrance to the waiting room, levelling his pistol across his arm. He fired a second shot before I could speak to him, and darted between myself and the President and Secretary Blaine into the street. The President reeled and fell' just in front of me. As he fell he said something I could not exactly under stand, and Secretary Blaine, with a terrified look, pushed toward him, exclaiming, ‘My God, he has been murdered. What is the meaning of this?’ “In God’s name, man,” I shouted, “what did you shoot the President for?” Mr. James R. Young, of the Philadelphia Star, says of the occurrence: “I reached the depot of the Baltimore and Potomac Rail road at about nine o’clock, intending to take the limited express train for New York. I passed through the ladles’ reception room, where the shooting took place, to the main or general reception room, where the ticket office is located. After purchasing my tick et I proceeded immediately to the train. After locating my seat In the ear I descend ed to the depot platform. There I met Mr. Barclay, the old Journal clerk of the House, and Messrs. Kilburn and Adams, of the newspaper press of the city, who were about to leave with their families for the North. We stood just opposite the special train which was waiting for the President. In it were some dozen people, more than half of whom were ladles, the wives, sons and daughters of Secretaries Windom and Runt, Postmaster General James, Colonel Rockwell and others of the Presidential party. They were a merry party, laughing and joking with the numerous friends who had come down to see them off for a fort night’s holiday and frolic. Soon Secretaries Windom and Hunt came out of the car and began promenading up and down the plat form, quietly smoking their cigars. Later Postmaster General James alighted from the car and joined our party. “We began congratulating him and our selves that we were to escape the fearfully hot weather, and were trying to joke him about the administration leaving business for pleasure, when a young man stepped up to Mr. James and said to him, excitedly, that the President bad been shot. “Mr. James turned and said, ‘What! There is no joke in a thing like that.’ “Ills informant, almost scared to death, replied, ‘1 assure you it is true.’ “Without another word Mr. James turned and ran to the depot building, and we all naturally followed him. When I reached the ladies’ reception rooms the doors were being closed. There v ere at least two bun dred people in aod around the building, and I began to inquire if the news I had heard was true, it took only a moment to find out that it was. I could not gain ad mission at the inside door of the room where the President was, so I ran out into the street, hoping to be more successful at the street entrance. There I found a big crowd already gathered, and a policeman and some others hurriedly hustling a man outside. This was the assassin. I did not follow, as my desire was to learn the extent of the Presi dent’s wound. Not being able to gain ad mittance at the door, I saw an open window, say about ten feet from the ground. A col ored newsboy was climbing in, and I con cluded to follow suit. It was not more than a half minute’s work before I got inside. The first person I saw was Secretary Win dom. He was standing alone, as pale as death, and tbe tears were trickling down his cheeks. Knowing him well, I said: ‘Mr. Secretary, where is the President, and what does this mean?’ “He replied: ‘There he lies in yonder corner in that group. It is as much of a mystery to me as it is to you “I moved over about two yards, and there I saw the President lying on a mat tress, which had been hastily brought from the sleeping apartments of one of the depot employes. There were probably thirty peo ple around him, many of whom were women, who bad been waiting for the Southern trains. “Secretary Blaine had hold of one of the President’s hands and Postihaster General James was assisting to get him into a sit ting posture. His face showed a deathly paleness, and he had a look of surprise, as if caused by pain and despair. He was vomiting and seemed to have no control of himself. His coat and vest had been ripped from him and his trousers loosened. The matter be had vomited had fallen on his shirt below the bosom, which made it seem as if the ball of the assassin had penetrated the intestines. Near him was his son, a lad of sixteen. Poor boy, he was almost beside himself. He wrung his hands and cried In a piteous manner. “With Mm were the son of Colonel Rock well, and Secretary Hunt, who, in every way natural to human beings, were trying to comfort him. In less than ten minutes Secretary Blaine gave orders to have tbe President removed to the upper floor of the depot, to the officers’ room, where there would be plenty of air and a freedom from the mob which was rapidly gathering. Colonel Rockwell and Adjutant General Corffin soon made a passageway, and >he President was borne by a number of the colored porters of the depot to tbe upp< r floor. I waited down stairs, and in about half an hour he was carried down, placed in an ambulance, and under a strong guard of mounted police was driven to the White House.” MATTERS IN MACON. Meeting of the Central Directors— The Proposed Savannah and Boston Steamship Line—Colonel Wad lev Did Not and Will Not Re sign—Tbe Macon and Brunswick Extension—Members of the Legis lature on Their Way to Atlanta— The Colored Military and tbe Fonrtb. Macon, July 4.—The Board of Directors of the Central Railroad met here to day. They had a very pleasant and harmonious session. The board was quite full. No question affecting Savannah was considered, save the establishing of a steamship line to BoetoD. This only awaits the consent of parties at the other end of the line. Several questions of a private nature took up the greater part of the time. Colonel Wadley did not resign, as the Constitution announced that he would, nor has he any inclination to do so. The board adjourned, and most of them left for home to night. Major McCracken, Chief Engineer of the Brunswick extension, says it will be ten days yet before a decision is made as to the route. Quite a number of members of the Legis lature are on their way to Atlanta. The colored military had a parade and picnic to-day at Adams’ Park. Weatber Indications.

The Temperance Advocate* and tb# Sheriffs-Each Well Attended- Prompt Dispatch of Baal ness-Re solutions Relative to President Garfield’s Assassination Adopted by Both—A Temperance Mass Meet ing. Atlanta, July 4 —The Temperance Con vention met to-day in the Hall of Repre sentatives. There was a large attendance from all parts of the Btate, including seven colored delegates. Judge John D. Cunning ham, of Fulton, was made temporary Presi dent, and W. G. Wbidby, of DeKalb, Secretary. Etch county was allowed as many votes as it has members of the Legis lature. A resolution was adopted admit ting a delegation from the Woman’s Chris tian Temperance Union to seats on the floor. Judge John W. H. Underwood, of Floyd, was elected permanent President. In his remarks he stated that the chief object of the convention was to secure harmonious and united action throughout the State for the suppression of intemperance. The movement, however, must be kept entirely free from political complications. W. G. Whldby was made permanent Sec retary. A resolution of sympathy for Presi dent Garfield In his suffering, reprobation for his assassination, and prayers for his speedy recovery was passed. A collection was taken up, and the resolution tele graphed to Washington. A large d-lega tlon from the Woman’s Temperance Union entered the hall and were received by the convention standing, and with great ap plause. President Underwood made an ad dress of welcome, to which Judge Cun ningham responded for the Union. A committee of one from each Congression al district and four from the State at large, to prepare business, was appointed. H. G. Everitt was named for the First district. On the call of counties for business to be referred to the committee, the Fulton county delegates presented a stirriDg tem perance declaration of Independence, which they pledge to support to the bitter eud. Walton county favored a local option law for each county and militia district in the State, and tbe appointment of a committee to attend to temperance matters before the Legislature. Judge Cunulugbam offered a resolution that any man should be allowed to vole fur prohibition without any regard to bis alle giance to political parties, and that should any party announce a temperance plank they would not be considered tbe frion Js, but the enemies of temperance. A lively Giscuseion followed the adoption of 6uch strong language, and the last clause was finally withdrawn and the first clause unaui mously referred to the committee. At tne afternoon session Jefferson county presented a petition for a prohibitory law for tbe State, or if not the -whole State, for that county. Wayne county also sent in an appeal. Hon. W. C. Tuggle, of Troup, presented a more elaborate declaration of Independence from the rule of King A leoh 1 1. The Committee on Business reported iu favor of a law prohibiting the manufacture, sale or furnishing of intoxicating liquors, except for medicinal, manufacturing and sacramental purposes, and providing that distilleries, if desired, may be established by the vote of the communities iu which they may seek to be located and in which liquor is to be sold. This plan compels the enemies of temperance to become the ag gressive parties. Rev. G. A. Nunnally, of Rome, offered an amendment in the shape of an elaborate law to license under the petition of the people of any neighborhood, but the saloon to be on the public street, a single room, no side or back doors or screens or painted windows, and to be run bv the consent of all parties occupying the same or contigu ous buildings. Said saloons to sell only from sunrise to sunset. Capt. John Milled ee, City Court Record er, of Atlanta, offered a substitute for local op'ion, and said the present Legislature Is uot prepared to act definite)y on the temperance question. Rev. W. J. Cotter, of Bartow, desired to amend so that the Legtaixture may be asked to order an election all over the State, oil the same day, for prohibition or agaiu-t it, and have no other question mixed with it. Rev. Dr. 8. W. Warren, of Macon, m&do an elaborate speech for harmony, good sense and practical action. He favored Captain Milledge’s subs'iru’e, because he fei.red Rev. Mr. Cotter’s amendment might fail in its application, and then the cause would meet a disastrous backset. Judge Arthur Hood, of Randolph county, earnestly advocated the report of the com mittee, and J. Y. Carmichael, of Coweta, made a thrilling speech on the same line. General Wra. Phillips, of Cobb, spoke for the committee, and explained' their action. First, to prohibit the manufacture and sale of liqu.rs. Becond, to allow any town or neighborhood to have a distillery and sa loons if the people vote for them. Third, no present laws regulating tbe liquor traffic to be repealed, so far as such towns ami neighborhoods are concerned. General Poll* lips made a strong argument for the adop tion of the report. After some few dila’ory motions by the opponents of tbe measure, the committee’6 report was adopted by ail almost unanimous vote amid6t great ap plause. The committee to prepare the bill and se cure its passage through the Legislature is composed of Judge Underwood as Chaii man, Judges Lister, Mershon, Hillver and Hood, J. G. Thrower, Rev G. A. Nunn illy, Thomas Hardeman, of Jefferson, and 11. G. Everitt. A resolution of thanks to the Womiu’s Christian Union was heartily seconded by Rev. J. K. Knowleti and eloquently re sponded to by a lady member of the Union. Judge Underwood then addressed the ladies with much pathos, and told them that they had succeeded up to the present time most grandly and to continue their labors without abatement to the end. A resolution was adopted In favor of pre senting a local option bill to tbe Legislature if the prohibition bill fails of passage. The convention is a strong one and well represents the best elements of Georgia so ciety. It is determined to appeal to tbe Legislature for prohibition, and, failing in that, to secure local option. A big temperance meeting was held heie to-night, and everything is hopeful aid flourishing The Sheriff,’ Convention met in the Sed ate Chamber, some fifty being present. Sheriff N. Anderson, of Newton, wag made President, and Sheriff W. F. Bussey, of Pike, Secretary. Sheriff John T. Ronan, of Chatham, offered well drawn resolutions fin the assasslna lon of President Garflell, which he advocated in a few excellent re marks, that were heartily applauded, and the resolutions were unanimously adopted. A committee was appointed to prepare busi ness. By request Governor Colquitt ad dressed the convention in an appropriate manner. At the afternoon session a fee bill was re ported, and a committee of one from each Congressional district was appointed to pre pare and present it to the Legislature. Sheriff Ronan represents the First district. Various matters were discussed, and the convention adjourned, feeling that great good would result from its consultations and labors. The city was crowded to-day with ne groes, but there were no disturbances. Deep sadness still prevails over the news from Washington.

£bc iio/smiITAKBR STREET, (MORNING NEWS BUTLDINQt. j. H. EitTIH, proprietor. H. r. THOnPSW, Editor. TUESDAY, JULY 5. 1881. The star route organs are insinuating that Postmaster General James is an ob struction to the progress of civilization, by cutting off mail facilities. Bristow 6aved the Republican party once by purging it from the contamina tion of the whisky ring thieves. Mac- Yo&gh and James have a similar mission before them. Will they purge that parly of star route robbers? It is a fact that the Southern people should reflect upon, that propositions to come to their assistance have only come since they have shown their ability to help themselves. Self-reliance is our surest hope for the future. When the bottom is reached in the star route rascality, it is likely that the exact connection of the late Mr. Uayes and ex Postmaster Key with the matter will be revealed. If the bottom is not reached, it will be because several dis tinguished Republican statesmen will otherwise get hurt. The northern Vandals have lately bought thousands of acres of the fine** Southern timber lands. The Memphis Avalanche says: “They want the timber to carry off to the north bank of the Ohio. But they will bring it back again in the shape of ax handles, empty oil barrels, etc.” “If the Legislature adjourns," remarks the New York Sun, “without electing, it is altogether probable that the two next Senators from the State of New York will both be taken from the ranks of the Democracy.” To which the Eve ning .Vail adds: “We might add that it is certain, instead of ‘probable.’ New Orleans is threatened with an in vasion of gamblers. On June 25 the new anti gambling law, recently passed bj the Missouri Legislature, went into operation. It is so rigid and violent that the gamblers of St. Louis and Kan sas City have concluded that the wisest thing they can do is to emigrate. They threaten to try New Orleans and New York as their future fields. Oat in lowa they have suffered so much from tornadoes and cyclones that they are endeavoring to devise some means of defending and protecting themselves. Fiat roofs to the bouse* have been suggested, but the Des MoiDs Register thinks cellars much better at and safer, and advises all the farmers to build them to every house, and take to them as soon as they see a cyclone tear ing along the prairie. The restless and resistless Mississippi river now proposes to convert the ancient town of Natchez into an inland dry land community, by building up a sand bar in front of the place and turnini> the channel of the stream to the Louisiana shore. Serious damage is thus threat ened to the commerce of Natchez, and the people of that Important shipping and business place are calling loudly to the Mississippi river commission for at tention to their situation. They should have prompt assistance. The Washington monument at Wash ington, D. C., reached the height of 200 feet last week. The original resolution to build the monument was made in Congress in 1799. so that it ha 9 taken eighty-two years to build two hundred feet, or at the rate of less than two and a haif feet a year. At this rate it will take over a century and a half to com plete the work. The contractors, how ever, are more hopeful, and believe that they will have the monument five hun dred feet high within three years. The New York Uerald felicitates that city upon the fact that within a “short time” its citizens will be able to walk to Brooklyn on a bridge and to New Jer sey through a tunnel. This will ro fa cilitate connection by steam rail, street rail and elevated rail with the seashore and the woods of Westchester that that city, in the estimation of its eulogist,will be the rival of London as a summer re sort. This may be putting it very strong, but the comparison will not be impres sive in this country. Whatever reason there is for leaving any gTeat, hot city in summer will continue to apply to New York. Large as the annual product of the precious metals now is it is significant that the amount is less by $75,000,- 000 than in 1853. Statistics on this sub ject, however, are not accurate. It is estimated that last year the total product of gold in the whole world was $118,000,000, nearly half of which was mined on the continent of America. The product of silver was $94,000,000, of which $76,000,000 was produced in this country. The grand total of pre cious metals was $212,000,000, an in crease, as compared with the three pre ceding years, owing mainly to the activ ity in silver mining here. In 1863 the total value of the product of precious metals was $271,000,000, and in 1853 it was $285,000,000. The celebrated Jumel case is recalled by an order of the Supreme Court of the city of New York, directing the estate of the widow of Aaron Burr to be divided and sold. In this litigation of sixteen years eminent lawyers have grown gray and rich —at least they have grown gray. How many have groan rich is a question harder to answer, be cause some of their fees rest a$ unpaid judgments on the property—in one cate to the amount of $75,000, and in an other of SIOO,OOO. The sum of liens of this sort is said to be $250,000. The Jumel case adds one more to the mauy illustrations of the wisdom of distribu ting one’s own estate, and so making sure that it wiil not be eaten up by the industrious counsel of quarrelsome heirs. Senator Voorhees, of Indiana, who is at the Hot Springs, Arkansas, bciDg asked if he did not think Mr. Conkling would turn Democrat in event of his being defeated at Albany, responded: “No, sir; the Almighty who made these mountains and hot water made Ccuk ling a Republican. He cannot be a Democrat He can never coalesce with that broad and liberal thought which fci.tuneates the Democratic party and cm the whole country. He u a man who never thought, spoke or dreamed of his country save in partisan blindness and sectional hate. He will never be come a Democrat, but will become a monument to the young men of the country, and stand as a warning against the folly of stupendous vanity and ego tism. HU fate will be a rebuke to per sonal government, which the country sorely needs.” Hopes and Fears for the Life of the President. Another day Of painful suspense, in which hopes and fears have alternated, as the bulletins from Washington an nounced the varying condition of the President has passed, and our latest night dispatches, while hopeful, give us no assurance that the danger is over. The national anniversary, which, un der other circumstances, would have been observed with the usual de monstrations and festivities, was for gotten in the general sorrow and anxiety which pervades the public mind, and the day passed off quietly. It will be observed that the latest offi cial bulletin closes with the statement that “the President’s condition is criti cal, but there are indications of the abatement of the unfavorable symptoms. This announcement, taken together with the dispatch of our special corres pondent, whose opportunities for obtain ing a knowledge of the true condition of the President, and the best opinion in regard to his case, affords but slight grounds on which to base hopes of a favorable result. Nevertheless, let us hope that the most favorable anticipations of the physicians will be realized, and that the dawn of another day may find the dreaded crisis safely passed and the sufferer out of danger. Perils of the Crisis—Forewarned is to be Forearmed. Whether the attempt to assassinate the President of the United States on Satur day last was made by a madman or by the instrument of a foul conspiracy, it is none the less a crime destructive of the public tranquility, and dangerous to the general welfare. It threatens the sta bility of the principles on which our form of government is built, and is con sequently a direct offense to every citi zeu of the United States (without distinc lion of party) who maintains the tenets of Democratic Republicanism. The crime is against the people of the United States and the good order of their society, organized under the Declaration of Indqtendence of July 4th, 1776, and the Constitution and Union of 1787. Unfortunately, too, the crime has been committed at a period of factional political excitement growing out of the exercise by the President of his prerogative to nominate the officers of the United States, and which agita tion is revolutionary. Still more ca lamitous is it, that in the event of the death of the President and the possible disability ot the Vice President, there is no President pro tern, of the Senate (the Vice President having broken down the customary right of the Senate to choose one by occupying the chair to the last moment and adjourning the Senate himself), and no Speaker of the House of Representatives,thus leaving the routine of executive duty to be perform ed by the Chief J ustice of the Supreme Court, until the Secretary of State can issue his warrant to the State Executives and Legislatures, appointing a day for choosing electors for President and Vice President, and the day on which the electors are to cast their votes, etc., all requiring time, during which the liberty, independence and free dom of the country may be in jeopardy. Guiteau may be crazy, or may be a tool of conspirators. But forewarned by the fate of Mr. Ti'.den’s election, and by the frauds in New York and Indiana, in the last Presidential election, it is well to be forearmed to meet any contingences that may happen—particularly when we re call the fact that Mr. Garfield is the only impediment in the path of the whisky rings, star route thieves, and other “stal wart” scoundrels, to control the govern meat. As history repeats itself, vigilance is, at this time, especially, the price of liberty. The question of a British Confedera lion, a union of all the British islands and colonies under one Parliament, to which each province shall send mem bers, is again being discussed as one of the safest and surest modes of preserving the integrity of the British empire. This condition of affairs exists to-day in France, where not only Algeria, but Senegambia, French Hindustan and Cochin China send delegates to the Assembly. An English Parliament or ganized on such a basis would be more than clumsy; it would be wholly im practicable and impossible. Ireland complains that the London Parliament cannot do it justice, because it does not fully understand the situation in Ireland; and, moreover, that it has not sufficient time to devote to Irish affairs, and yet the relations between Ireland and Great Britain are a thousandfold closer than those between India and Eng land. This centralization scheme will evidently not work for many years to come. The Revised Testament.— Episcopal Bishop Stevens, of Pennsylvania, has issued a pastoral letter to the clergy of his diocese, in which he 6ays: “Having been asked by some of the clergy of this diocese as to whether they might not use in the public services of the church the newly revised version of the New Testa ment, I think it best to state that, as the General Convention of the Church in 1823 adopted King James’ version of the Bible as published by Eyre Stralier as the standard edition, and incorporated their action into what is now canon 18, title 1 of the digest, no clergyman is at liberty to use any other version in his public ministrations. The church having taken careful and deliberate action, and that action having been the law of the Church for over fifty years, no clergyman will lightly violate the canon to which he has promised obe diencc.’|_ Extremely Dangerous. —ln an article on the weather, which will appear in the Southern Farmer's Monthly for August, Prof. George R. Cather, of Ala bama, says: “The electrical storm inter vals are now extremely dangerous. There is a viciousness in the lightning dis charges neveT seen before. It almost staggers one to look at a cloud from which come these emanations of natural wrath. The red hot blaze has an angry look, and threatens instant destruction in its touch. The smallest clouds seem to be loaded with this element of fire. The reports from different sections of the country visited by storms indicate that fads, or results, justify conclusions from appearances. These are times for an epidemic of ’Electrophobia’—a disease very common in ordinary times of the electrical excitement of the elements.” Count Herbert Bismarck has at last obtained the consent of his parents to his marriage with the Countess Carojatb, who, it will be remembered, eloped with him a few months ago to Italy, and has since been legally divorced from her hus band. The Depths of Depravity at Albany Growing Deeper. A painfully immoral tale comes from Albany concerning ex-SeDator Platt. It is of the kind for which ex Senator Conkling has contrived to make himself notorious. In the case of Platt there was no infuriated husband with a shot gun as at Canonchet, but there was a vulgarly discovered episode at an Albany hotel, lacking the elegant refinement of Conkling's escapades; and so brazen that Platt has been compelled to retire from the field as a candidate for re election to the Senate. Conkling manages those things far more skillfully; but his insig nificant fellow-resigner is probably not to be so very much blamed that in his efforts at imitation of the lordly Itoscoe he has so signally failed in this particu lar to write himself down; “Me too, t. platt.” Alluding to this scandal, the details of which, as given in the dispatches, are too gross for publication, the Rochester Advertiser says: “This morning the eves ot the public are re galed with the sickening sight ot recital in the telegraph co'u nans of a history of the lechery and debauchery of one of the chiefs of the stalwart or Coupling side—of the gross im mora'ities and indecencies of no less a per sonage than Conkling's a sociate, Platt, in the canvass for the Benatorships, committed in the great caravansary of caucus and corruption, the Delavan House, under the eyes of a select company of half breed bo-pee os who learned of what was transpiring and laid in ambush to glut and gloat over the indecency! Viewed in any light, and whether trie or false, the story of Platt's performs nee as re lated in the dispatches, and the groveling ref erence to it made by one of the half breed leaders in the Assembly, are disgusting in the extreme, and b-speak the putrescence of the political body from which they proceed, If the scandalous allegations against Platt be calumny, they prove that the half breed leaders who have concocted them are the mott desperate and unscrupulous gang of scoundrels to he found outs'de of the State prisons. “If, on the contrary,! these allegations he true, they show that the stalwart leaders, comparatively respectab'e as they have ap peared to be in the struggle up to this time, are no better than tbeir opponents. “Corkling, fleeing from the wrath and the shotgun of an injured husband at Canonchet! Platt, tracked by the sleuth-hands of half breed malevolence aud hunted from illicit cover at Albany! and these, two late shining lights and stalwart leade s of ‘the g r eat party of moral ideaa’ in the United States Senate who seek return to their abandoned seats that they may again beacon that party on its way in administering the government of fifty mil lions of free and honest people!” NOTES FROM THE CAPITAL. Tobacco Regulations -Hcvenue Ma rine Hospital Service—The Naval Advisory Board. Washington, July 3.—The Commissioner of Internal Revenue has made the following rul ing of interest to the tobacco trade: “Special tax stamps issued to peddlers of tobacco are not transferable. Every person who peddles tobacco, snuff or cigars must have a special tax stamp issued in his own name.” This question came np from a manufacturer, who employed a peddler to sell his cigars, and obtained for him a special tsx stamp in the peddler's name. The peddler now proposes to go into the em ploy of another pergon, at-d takes h's special stamp with him. The ruling quoted of course prevents this. KORK ABOUT TOBACCO. The Commissioner of Internal Revenue has addressed the following letter to the Interna) Revenue Collector at Jacksonville, Florida “I am in receipt of your letter of June 20th, inclosing a communication addressed to you by 11. Myers A Cos relative to the detention of a lot of tobacco shipped by them to Bradford A Rocs, which they allege were samr les that had accumulated on their hands, the sale of which had naver been objected to by the revenue officer at Savannah. You ask for instructions in regard to this tobacco. I reply that although there may be a strong presumption that the tobacco in question hs from time to time been taken from stamped packages or samples, and although the tax mav have been paid upon this tobacco, still, in the absence of a revenue stamp, there is no evidence of ihe pa m -nt of the tax; aud, as the law positively t hiblts the sale rf manufactured tobacco retail, except from packages properly stn will be ot the greatest possible value to the future interests of Florida, and will prove an immense lever in elevating her to the important pogition she is destined to occupy. Lands to the amount of 3,434,70.1 acres have already been located. These lie chiefly in the counties of Orange, Sumter, Volusia, Marion, Hillsborough, Hernando, Polk. Manatee and Monroe. As -orue anxiety has been expressed by Ihe squatters upon these lands, it is under stood that they w il be allowed the privilege of pui chasing the property they occupy at the rate of $1 25 per acre, to be paid in install ments. The lands will be graded, according to quali ty and location, and will be put on the market to actual settlers, as rapidly as the preiimina ry arrangements can be effected Many of them lie beneath the frost line and can be util ized for tbe production of most of the fruits and vegetables now grown in the West Indies There can be no doubt but that the sale which has been effected, will meet the hearty concurrence of a large raaj >rity of the intelli gent people of the State, who will indoise the action of the trustees. I learn from the Superintendent of the Okee chobee Drainage Company, Col I. Coryell, that the machinery for the dredge boats to te employed in draining the lake and diggirg canals there and between Indian and St. John's rivers, is now being manufactured in Few Or leans, and will be delivered at this point about the fifteenth instant. The dredge boats are to be built in this city, and will be modeled after those in use upon the lower Mississippi. They will poss-ss great power, are af era new patent, and will work rapid and satisfactory results. The Okeechobee Company has recently leased the second and third stories of tbe Freedman’s Bank Building, corner of Pine and Forsyth streets, which will be used for the va rious offices required. Col. I Coryell, the able Superintendent, is up to his ears in business, and is amply qualified, in all respect-t, for transacting his onerous and responsible duties. To those who heard the evidence in the Pat tersou murder case at Jasper, the verdict of murder in the first degree rendered by the jury was not unexpected. The evidence was clear definite and cone usive, and no other result seemed possible. The jury was out only thirty minutes. It has been a very costly trial and the expenses will amount to several thou sand dollars. No better argument against the common and reprehensible practice of carrying con cealed weapons can he given than by the re cent homicide at Jasper. Here were two clever, valuable men—the one killed, the other with a life time of remorse, in consequence of this horrid anti unchristian habit. Two fam ilies are plunged in affliction, and another scain is brought on the good name of the State. It is high time that public sentiment should be aroused on the msfer, and leading men should speak out boldly in condemnation of a prac tice which so frequently leads to bloodshed and misery. A pressure should be brought to bear upon the next Legislature to secure the passage of a law imposing a heavy tine or im prisonment, or both, upon all convicted of this grave offense. Means surely can tie devised to render this habit disgraceful, aud effectually to check its prevalence. Perrv's Brigade will hold their annual reun ion in Tallahassee on the 14th inst., and Fin ley's Brigade will meet iu this city on the 27th or the present month. All the survivors of these commands should exert themselves to be present and to meet their old comrades. The 4th will be very quietly observed in Jack sonville. No steps have been taken for a gen era! celebration. Besides it is entirely too hot to get up a parade or a frolic of any descrip tion. Pyramids of watermelons occupy the side walks. and at prices that bring them within the range of the average Ethiopian,who is thereby In an earthly paradise. W. H B. The Plea of Insanity. Editor Morning Few*: In your editorial of the 4th, in commenting on the terrible crime committed by Guiteau, you eay: “He is said to be insane. He doubtless is a crack brained fa natic, but it is evident that his crime is due as much to his stalwartism as to his iusanity.” It has occurred to me that no more fitting op portunity can present itself upon which to en deavor to remove the popular impression that persons “said to be insane,” and believed to be “orack brained” are not responsible for crime. We talk about the law of insanity. Properly speaking there can he ro law on this subject other than the facts themselves. Courts can not rightfully say that Insanity under certain forms destroys no element or responsibility. It may, or it may not; it is simply a question of fact. It is claimed that the law has followed in the footsteps of science, though, perhaps, at a conservative distance— iully recognizing its improvements and sub ordinating its authority to them. Being a question of fact in each particular case, it becomes the province of a jury to psss upon tbe mental state of the accused at the time of the commission of the act; but this, under proper judicial instruction, and that of Judge Bull in Choice vs the State of Georgia, 81 Ga 454. seems to be the true exposition of the law: “That if a man lias cap city and reason sufficient to enable him to distinguish between right and wrong as to the particular act in question; if he has knowledge and consciousness that the act he is doing is wrong, and will deserve punishment, he is, in the eye of tbe law, of sound mind and memory.” This charge of Judge Bull is sus tained by Judge Lumpkin; but added to th s test is another; Has the defendant In a crimi nal case the power to distinguish right from wrong, and the power to adhere to the right and to avoid the wrong* Has the defendant, in addition to the capacities men tioned, the power to govern his mind and his body* Can any intelligent mind for one moment doubt the soundness of the above doctrine T bat this assassin hud reason sufficient to distinguish between right and wrong, and the power to govern his mind, is clearly evinced by his postponement of his murderous design to a more fitting time than that presented at Long Branch, and the per ception that Mrs. Garfield’s recovery might he retarded by the shock is ample proof not only of the distinguishing but of the governing faculty. It will rot do to let “the evil passions grow upon what they feed on,” aud “it one has in dulged his passions or blunted his moral sense, so that he can commit crime without remorse, and fails to see its beinousnes?, as persons of purer morals and more restrained passions see it, this does not make him insane.” The meagre history of this man's life, glean ed from your columns, all lead to the conclu sion of his sanity, but point irresistibly to the conclusion of an utter want of moral sensi bilities through the gratification of his evil passions. Let it bo understood that this indulgence leads to crime, from tbe deadening of the moral sensibilities; and that he who so in dulging commits crime, and is responsible, me e out to him the full measure of punish ment, that human life may enjoy protection from the maming almost a necessity in the older coun ties There is not enough timber in Talbot county to-day to fene** respectably the open lands, the fences whi h afford protection now are rapidlv decaying-many of them per fect wrecks. They cannot be replaced. Hence the law must intervene and give protection, or the farmers must cease to cultivate. There is considerable anxiety as to the result. If it were left to the freeholders, the question would be settled with nit dispute. But where there are so many who are not land owners, and who may have a mangy hog or two, or a dilapidated form of a cow, and all allowed to vote, the result is not so certain. As I visit these older counties, I am more than ever convinced that something ought to he done to protect our magnificent pine forests, which are bei.-g soruthlefsly destroyed. With the present rate of destruction it will not re quire a generation to pas before the whole State will be in as deplorable a condirion for timber as these older connties are to-day. The hospitality of the good people has been generously extended to ali the delegates of the conferences held here, and although not a del egate, I had the good fortune to be assigned to Judge W. J. Weeks’ elegant home, and to whose excellent family I am under special ob ligations, I met to-day a veteran, it is true, in an hum ble sphere, but he is worthy of note. Mr. Win. Burge, a most worthy man, has been sexton of the Methodist Church in Talbotton for nearly forty years, without intermission. I doubt if there is a parallel case In the State. Jack Plank. To the Teachers of Georgia. The National Teachers’ Association convenes in Atlanta, July 19. The ablest and most progressive members of the profession in the United States aie its members, and will be present at th s session. Tbe programme is one of grei.t attraction for those teachers who still feel that they havo something to learn. Wc will have in our midst one of those gatherings of the great men of our loved profession, of which some of us have read with interest, hut have not been able to attend. We have it, I say, at our own doors at last, aud each one of us can be present, if he will. We can afford to go to this great school of teachers, and be taught—we cannot af ford to stay away. Let the teachers of Georgia come forward and show our brethren of the Northern, the Middle, the Western, and of our kindred South ern States that we are not behind them in our desire to further the good causa to which we have devoted our lives. When they come into our borders, let us go to meet them, not at the thrcshhold, for they come even to our hearthstone. The Georgia Teacheis’ Association will blend itself with that of the Na tional. Let none of its members, at least, be absent. They know what a benefit their annual meetings have been to them—how their zeal has been quick ened; their minds broadcued and deep ened; their powers for doing good strengthened and enlarged. To them the Executive Committee feels that it cannot issue this call for a large attend ance in vain. B. C. Caldwell, Secretary G. T. A. Any inquiries will be cheerfully an swered.

THE principal cause of nearly all sickness at this time of the year has its origin in a disordered Liver, which, if not regulated in time, great suffering, wretchedness and death will ensue. A gentleman, writing from South America, says; “I have used vour Simmons Liver Hegulator with good effect, both as a prevention and cure for Malarial Fevers on the Isthmus ot Panama.” If you feel drowsy, debilitated, have fre quent headache, mouth tastes badly, poor ap petite and tongue coated, you are suffering from torpid liver or “biliousness," and nothing will cure you so speedily and permanently as to take Simmons Liver Regulator. It is given with safety and the happiest re sults to the most delicate infant. It takes the place of quinine and bitters of every kind, It is the cheapest, purest and best family modi cine in ttie world. SOLD BY ALL DRUGGIST3.

AND HEREBY DECLARE i CiSQ HUD OF 60 CENTS ON THE DOLLAR. That is, we propose to give to every one of our customers and patrons certain goods, which we will specify, at about 40 CENTN O'V THE DOLLAH. I'iO we really mean itf Yes, we do under certain conticgencies, which please read carefully 1 to avoid misunderstanding: We have bought our heavy winter stock, such as Blarkets, Flannels, Pants Cloths, Underwear, etc., during the past three months, to be delivered to us bv the Ist August. In fact we always buy such goods when nobody wants them, and that is one of the secrets whv we buy and sell so cheap. Now we have to make room for their reception, but having a very large stock of summer goods still on hand, we are compelled, positively forced, to make A CLEARANCE SALE Two of our floers being utilized for retail purposes, we find our three-story building Inade quate to bold all our goods, and further, we do not care to open next summer's season with this summer’s stock. Mark well—do not expect to find these RUINOUS PRICES IN EVERY DEPARTMENT, For we have thousands of dollars worth of goods that know no seasons, such as Shirtings, Sheetings, Notions, and so forth.

The Guards Band and a fine string band were present, and the dancing pavilion was well patron ized. The main feature with the Schuet zens was the shooting contest for valuable prizes. Everything passed off very harmo niously and satisfactorily, and the festival was a credit to the efficient committee that had so well attended to their duties. We give herewith the score for the day’s shoot ing bull’s E#fe target. First prize, one fine rifle, won by H. Ruck—23. Becord prize, one case wine, won by G. Fox—l 9.

Private Hertz won the second priz-*, a handsome pair of opera glasses—sco;e 19 The third prize, for the poorest shot, was a case (one dozen bottles) of champagne, and was won by Private John Hollenbeck on a clean score of goose eggs. This latter prize was donated to the company by a generous member on condition that it be awarded to the most unfortunate marks man, hence its disposition. The consider ite member perhaps thought when a man had placed himself so far behind bis comrades in bis record his spirits certainly needed bracing up. The .Military—Salute Fired. In accordance with orders, the several companies constituting the First Volunteer Regiment of Georgia, with the excep tion of the German Volunteers, assembled yesterday morning at tbeir rendezvous on South Broad street. This eorys did not parade in consequence of the men not getting heir new uniforms, and because many of the present ones are unfit for u e.
