Excitement is getting up to fever heal on count of the bold and dastardly act in broad daylight.’’ Macon Telegraph: “The down train to Columbus, eight before last, killed a negro two miles beyond Fort Valiev. Nothing was known of the killing uniil the body was found next day by the inward bound train, and the manr-t rof his death is only conjectured. It is thought that the negro, who ran away fr m hi* father in Perry, was trying to steal a ride and in some way fell, his head .'.ragging until death ensued. A portion of his skull, with the scalp cleaned i moothlv fnm it, was found some distance from the tody.” The Atlanta Lk nstitution says: ‘lt will lie remembered that a short time ago a confer ence was held between the city and State authorit es for the purpose of determining the money value of the olu capitol a‘ Mtiledgeville, which amount tlie city of At anta is to pay the (State when the new capitol is started. The matter of the price was lelt to arbitral ion, and Colonel L- N. Whittle, of Macon, has been chosen to represent the State, and Colonel J. W.

Palatka Herald: "It and esno: matter whether Putnam county is in South or East Florida. Of one thing we are assured —it has more large orange groves than any couuty in the State, and will, in five years lime or [ess, witness the arrival and departure of steamships to and from thus place, for Sew York.” Palatka Herald: "The residence of 8. U. Hammond, Esq at Fort Gates, in this county, is said to be the finest on the St. John's river. The section called Mount Royal and Fort Oates, and the tine of beautiful residences and cultivated river fronts, presents to the eTe of the traveler a picturesque scene which inlsht well challenge comparison with scenery on the Hudson." Palatka He raid: "Yesterday morning, while Sam Basford was m a t oat rowing in the Cove, he discovered the dead body of an unknown man fi.jatmg in the river.

Black River, in Clarendon county, is dryer now than it has been for years. Some of the larger lakes in the swamp are go shallow that fish can hardly swim, and may be easily caught with the hand. The residence of Mr. Wm. Pooser, at Orange burg, was entered on last Monday night and a number of household articles were stolen. Liens have been given in this county, says the Abbeville Medium, this year aggregating the enormous sum of (400,000. If this thing continues there will be no saying, this country. Matters seem to grow worse every year. The Board of County Commissioners of Marl boro county are considering the ways and means of building anew court house, and are preparing data to secure from the General As sembly at its next sitting the legislation neces sary to carry the purpose into effect. Manning is being rapidly improved; the steam mills can hardly supply the demand for lumber. Up to the 29th ult there had been filed in the Clerk's office of Kershaw county 2.247 liens, including liens for rent, for fertilizers and for supplies, aggregating in amount some thing over $200,000. Marion has been for nearly twenty years wi hout a school bouse, teachers being com pelled to rent at their own expense such places as they can get entirely unsuited for the pur pose. Mr. Silas Turner, who was a gallant soldier in the Mexican war, died In Marlboro county last week of heart disease. He was 65 years old. The Enquirer sar: ‘The total number of liens on crops, etc., filed in the Clerk’s office of York countv from October Ist, 1880, to the 23d ntnuo, '8 2,780, aggregating in amount $166,- 809, or averaging $60.” The survivors of the late war from Claren- don county have invited all interested to meet with them on the first Monday in November, to devise some plan for raising sufficient funds to erect a monument to the memory of the he roes who were slain in battle. Of over a dozen lawyers practicing in Marion only three are natives of the county. Tne same thing is true of other callings. Of over thirty merchants, less than one third are n lives of the county, and only two or three of the town. The Anderson intelligencer says: Asbury Wade, a colored man of this county, who measures six feet eight inches in height in his stocking feet, has been engaged by P. T. Barauin for exhibition in bis great circus. Asbury was in town on Saturday dressed out in white linen, and had very much the appear ance of a Ku-Klux. He is doubtless the tallest man in the State, or perhaps the Union The Camden Journal says: "On Tuesday night of last week Michardson. colored, att-mpted to commit a most diabolical out rage upon the person of a young lady living five miles southeast of Camden. Tne negro came to the house at about 11 o’clock and tried to take her out of the window, but she fought and screamed until her father and brother, being aroused by the n >ise came to answer the alarm, when the black fiend ran and made his escape. All the citizens of the neighborhood turned out to hunt him down yesterday, but up to last accounts he had not been found.” The Williamsburg Herald says; “The Sheriff attempted to arrest Jack Hicks, a colored man. last Monday morning. No sooner did the Sheriff order him to surrender than he ran off, when the Sheriff fir-d four shots, two of which took effect, one in his shoulder, just above the blade, and the other in the leg Me made go-d his escape, but it is thought he will die. There were three indictments out for him. one for stealing cotton, one for breaking jail and turning out prisoners, and another for not pay ing his poll tax" The Camden Journal says; “We learn that during the latter part of last week Mr. Eu rene Hogan, livicg m-ar Doko, indicted Henry By num. coP-x), for stealing watermelons. By num wa ed and acquitted. On their way bac ho. logan and Bynum got into a dis pute over .ne matter when, it appears, that num drew a pistol as if to shoot Hogan. Hogan, seeing this action, immediately drew his pistol and opened fire upon Bynum, firing five times. Three of the balls took effect—one in the ear. which ran around and was cut cut near the back of the head, one in the side and one in the hand. None of the wounds are con sidered as necessarily dangerous, and the pa tient was doing well at last accounts.” A twelve year old son of Mr. Eli Moore, of Darlington county, came to his death in a mysterious manner last week. He went out to the field to carry water to his father as usual, and not coming on time the father be came uneasy and instituted a search for his son. whoifc clothing was found on the hank of Lynch's river. The river was drugged and -the hody was found about fifty yards from where the clothing was found The boy’* neck was broken. An inquest was held by Trial J istice Fountain. Dr. Palmer, who held the p. st mortem examination, said the boy came to his death by his neck being broken; he did not drown. The manner in whicli his neck was broken would have caused respiration to have ceased almost immediately. The jury returned a verdict "that the deceased was found in Lynch’s river, with his neck broken, by some cause mischance or accident, entirely unknown to the jury.” The .Sea Inland .Vetrs says: “The prospects for a good fall trade in Beaufort are encourag ing. aim several stores that have been vacant for some time are being fitted up to receive tenants. The demand for labor is good in this section, and industrious men can obtain fair wages ar.d steady employment The cotton crop is better than anticipated from the back ward season in the early part of the year, and there is every indication of plenty of money this fall.” The Beaufort Crescent, of July 28th, says: "The family of Mr. John O. Barnwell were taken suddenly ill on Sunday evening, and Dr. Stuart on being summoned found symptoms of poisoning. There were nine persons affect ed. ard for a time several of them were in a critical condition. The administered antidotes for tartar emetic aud the patients were toon relieved. The poisoning was owing to one or two causes—watermelon or canned beef- but as the melon came from Augusta the doctor inclines to the opinion that it re sulted from some impurity of the beef. A rather significant fact, however, occurred yes terday. 3t colored man attempted to purchase tartar emetic to 'fix’ his watermelons, as they were disappearing too fast.” Ti e exercises of the State Normal Institute opened Tuesday morning in the Furman Uni versity building. Greeuville, with devotional exercises conducted by the Rev. Ellison Ca pers, of the Episcopal Church. Trot. A. 8.

Almost a quarter of the tongue, which bad become greatly enlarged from ihe cancerous disease, was cut away from the left side in order to re dace that organ to Its natural size.

The Railway Tax BUI In the Honoe —Pasted by Sections Alter a Warm Discussion—An Effort to he Made to Reconsider the Vote—A Quiet Day iu the Senate. Atlanta, August 3.—The House took up the special order, the bill requiring rail roads to return their property for taxation by all the counties in the State. Mr. Twiggs, of Richmond, opposed the bill as unconstitutional and unjust to the railroads, and was followed by Messrs. Bail, of Troup, Btrother, of Lincoln, and Dußlg non, of Baldwin, the latter making a mas terly argument. He cited the case of the BavanDah, Florida and Western Railway as showing the injustice of such taxation. The bill was advocated by Messrs. Miller of Houston, Bronson of Bartow, and Estes of Hall. After nearly two hours of debate Mr. Hunt, of Bpalding, moved to send the bill back to the Committee on Railroads, with Instruction to amend it so aA not to include the rolling stock. Mr. Jemlson, of Bibb, favored this action, but the House refused by a large majority to recommit. Mr. Rankin, of Gordon, Chairman of the Railroad Committee, closing speech for the bill, when it was voted upon by sections. The first section was adopted by a vote of yeas 102 to Days 30; section two wa6 adopted by 84 yeas to 53 nays; the third section by 89 yeas to 50 nays; the fourth section by 90 yeas to 42 nays, and the fifth section with little opposition Messrs. Barrow, of Clark, and Hunt, of Spalding, called for the flual passage of the bill by sections, and on the call of the yeas and nays the first section was passed, yeas 105, nays 49; the second section by 89 yeas to 62 nays; the third section by 88 yeas to 55 nays; the fourth section by 89 yeas to 54 nays, and the fifth section by 100 yeas to 26 nays. An attempt may be made to reconsider tbe vote to-morrow. Still, I doubt if the bill can be defeated. It will work great hardship on the Savannah, Florida and Western Railway, the Central and Georgia Roads being exempt. SENATE PROCEEDINGS. In the Senate several House bills were read a second time. The following House bills were passed on third reading: To alter and amend section 326 of the Code; to repeat Bection 659 of the Code; two local Athens bills; to allow day scholars to attend the Deaf and Dumb Asylum; to authorize the Governor to pur chase Harris’ Digest of Supreme Court Re ports for the Slate officers; to appropriate $2,500 to the Deaf and Dumb Asylum for Colored Mutes; to prevent Superior Court Judges from presiding on tbe Supreme Bench In cases presided over by them in lower tribunals.

Vicksburg’s Quarantine Station. Washington, August 3 —The quarantine station at Vicksburg, Miss., was recently abolished by order of the National Board of Health. The reason given by the board for this action is that it was found impossi ble to man the station, several inspectors having been sent there and all 1h turn were taken sick with malarial fever. Owing to the rigid inspection made at New Orleans, an officer of the board says it was not deemed absolutely necessary to continue the Vieksburg station. Complaints have been made by those interested, and in compliance with the general desire for the reopening of the station, the board has or dered Inspector Dunlap, of Memphis, to proceed to Vicksburg at once for that purpose. Another Texas Railroad. Galveston, August 3.—A special from Austin, Texas, says “The charter of the Huntsville, New Orleans and Western Texas Railroad, which has been filed, provides for a line from Sabtne Pass to a point on tbe International and Great Northern, a quarter of a degree south of the thirty first parallel, a distance of two hundred miles. The capi tal stock is $4,000,000.” More About tbe Internal Machines. Boston, August 3. —W. H. Lincoln, agent for the Seyland line of steamers at this port, ridicules the idea that the infernal machines sent abroad were made in New York or Peoria, and intimates that he knows where they were made, but withholds his knowledge from the public, in order that premature disclosure may not defeat the end 6 of justice. _ Cheap Beer In St Louis. St. Louis, August 3. —A war has broken out among the brewers of this city, which promises to lead to much bitterness of feel ing and the demoralization of prices. On Monday Winklemyer’s brewery reduced the price from eight to seven dollars. Yesterday several other brewrles followed suit. To d y all the breweries in tbe city’are selling at cut rates. Coally Blase In Deadwoofl. Deadwood, August 3.—A fire occurred this morning in the lower part of the city, known as Fountain City, and destroyed iwentv-five buildings. The lots is about SIOO,OOO. The insurance is small. Many families escaped with only their night clothes. Tbe fire broke out In Williams’ grocery house. Its origin is unknown. There were two murders in France toward the close of the year 1860, which are called to mind by the shocking Le froy case in England. Oue of the vie tints was M. Poinsot, a magistrate, who was found dead iu one of the carriages of a train traveling between Troyes and Paris, his head pierced by two pistol shots. Shortly before this event, the body of a Russian gentleman had been found on the line between Paris and Mulhausen. In both these cases the mur derers escaped. OUR JACKSONVILLE LETTER. Confederate Re-union—The Good They Do—The Gray and Blue To gether—Decorations—Senator Cali’s Address—Tribute to the **Reb”— Reply of Gen. Finley—Hl* Appear* ance— Extracts From His Speech- Various Resolutions Another Railroad—Land Buyers. Jacksonville, Fla., August 2.— lt was a very pleasant gathering, that of the surviving mem bers of Finley's Brigade, last week in this city. In point of members, it has not been equalled at any simila rassembly since the war. Here and there in the procession a man with a leg or arm missing, vividly brought back the scenes of the past and the memories of many a field of blood and carnage. These reunions should be encouraged. They bring together those who encountered great dangers and privations, and who were knit together by common sympathies and similar sentiments. Those who participated in these scenes are fast disappearing from the battle field of life. Twenty years have elapsed since the terrible struggle commenced, and gray hairs have succeeded to the blonde and ebon locks of those days. Anew generation has arisen, for whose benefit such organizations as tbe above are preparing a true history. Under the escort of the two military compa nies of the city, the Light Infantry and Light Artillery, the long column of old veterans marched from Rt. James Park down Ilogsn street to Bav, and thence to Metropolitan Hall. A notable feature of the procession was the presence, in the line, of several ex-Union sol diers. who were evidently on the best of terms with the Johnny Rebs. A large number or citizens had congregated at the hall, the ladies having turned out In force for the occasion. The room had been most handsomely and appropriately deco rated with National and Confederate flags, while the stAge was graced with exquisite flowers and the portraits of Gens R. E. Lee and Jackson. A memorial tablet on the left bore the following inscription: “On Fame’s eternal camping ground Their silent tents are spread. And Glory guar’s with solemn round The bivouac of the dead.” Senator Call’s Address of welcome was de livered in his usual impressive manner, and was replete with gems of eloquence and patriotic sentiments. Mr. Call illustrated the sincerity and honesty of the Confederate sol diers in the following happy manner: “There is a quality which everywhere and at all times command* the homage and respect of mankind, which binds together human so ciety in whatever shape or form it may assume, which connects those who kneel at every shrine, which hinds together the soldiers of the Cross and the Koran, which finds i*s expression alike in the heart of the Christian, in his ministrations of mercy amid pestilence, dis ease and famine, and in the stern soldier in the blood and agony of battle; a quality which Is essential to all human excellence in its higher and better and purer form—this is the quality of sincere conviction, of heroic sacri fl.!e of life and time, and all that this world makes lovely and dear to human hearts, at the slirine of a pure and earnest faith, whether that faith shall be justified by success as human eyes shall view it, or whether, buried in tears and blood and ashes, tbe pure faith, the honest conviction, the heroic endeavor, the sublime self-sacrifice, still remains in the eter aal history of man Senator Call’s entire address was elevated, and in entire harmony with the spirit of the occasion. His reputation as an orator was fully sustained, and he was equally felicitous in language and manner. Uen.ru] Finley's reply as commander of the eace, happiness and ever-growing prosperity.

“Let. the people Norih and South, East and West, break through the restraints of narrow sectional prejudice, and throw wide the doors of their hearts to the patriotic desire for the welfare and happiness of every part of the u-hol- of this grand country of ours—the mod ern Canaan to which the God of nations led our fathers after long and weary wanderings in the wilderness of political oppression, and let us ever remember that the only true condi tions of enduring republican liberty are devo tion to the Constitution aad an intelligent and patriotic exercise of the ballot. For if it be true that the superstructure of our govern ment has been reared upon the foundation idea of intelligence and patriotism, then it is also true that the people must be intelligent and patriotic, or else the foundation will prove to be yielding sand instead of enduring gran ite.” Col. R. H. M. Davidson, Gen. Finegan and Capt Pasco responded to the calls made upon them in a brief and felicitous manner. Numerous letters were read from members of the brigade, expressing regret at their ina bility to be present Resolutions were also adopted acquiescing in the action taken by Perry’s Brigade to bring about a general re union of all the Confederate soldiers and sailors of ai; commands within the Slate. Those noble ladies, Mrs Isabella M. Harrison and Mrs. E. A. Harri, of the Florida Hospital. Army of Tennessee, and Mrs. M. M. Reid, of the Florida Hospital, Army of Virginia, re ceived the thanks of the organization in a resolution full of reverence and gratitude. The following resolutions were adopted by a rising vote, and the Secretary was instructed to forward a copy to Mrr. Garfield: Whereas, The survivors of the Confederate brigades and regiments assembled at this re union, comprising not only Florida soldiers, but ex-Confedera'es from other Southern Slates, have heard with siucere regret and deep horror of the attempt to assassinate the President of the United States; Resolved, That, as American citizens, we de plore this terrible event, and regard the blow aimed at the person of our Chief Magistrate not merely as a personal injury to him, but as a pub ic wrong which deserves and receives the severe condemnation ot all right thinking men. Resolved, That we sympathize with the President arid his family in their domestic affliction and suffering brought upon them by a cowardly act, caused by no fault of his, and committed against him simply on account of the high office he fills. Resolved, That we hear with pain and regret of the unfavorable symptoms now attending his case, and trust that they will disappear, and that he will be restored to health and strength, and to the active discharge of the duties of the high office to which he has been cail*d by the American people. By the way, if the “old rebs” who passed these resolutions could only put their hands on that miserable miscreant Guiteau, a drum head court martial would be promptly organ iz'd and a speedy and summary punishm -nt iufiioted. He’d never have a chance to put in a plea of insanity. In the afternoon an excursion was had to the bar, and the steamer was crowded with the soldiers and their friends. lhe occasion brought together many old comrades, and was heartily enjoyed by all who were p-esent. Under the provisions of the general incorpo ration act of the State, notice has been given by Messrs. H. 8. Haines, W. P. Hardee and J. F. White that a company has been formed under the name of the Live Oak, Tampa and Charlotte Harbor Railway Company, two huu dred and sixty mites in length, from Row land's Bluff, on the Suwannee river, to Char lotte Harbor, passing through 'he counties of Suwannee, Alachua, Levy, Marion, Hernando, Hillsborough and Manatee. The nan eof Col. H. 8. Haines at the head of the incorporators gives assurance that this great work will be undertaken in due season. Large numbers of land buyers are still ar riving in search of eligible locations. Kentucky is investing heavily, and the purchasers, who have already secured several thousands of acres of choice lands, principally in Hernando, say that they are for actual settlement, and that the occupants will be down this winter. We can’t get better material, and want them to come fast and thickly. There were eighteen deaths in the city last month, as compared with twenty for the same month of last year, and thirty two in July, 1879. This is quite satisfactory The rains continue, and the fall for last month was 7.61 inches. W. H. B. Two great bells have been cast at West Croydon, in England, for the tower of the new Eddystone Light house. Each has a weight of about 4200 weight and a diameter at the mouth of 5 feet inches.

GROWING BETTER AND BETTER HOURLY. The President’s Appetite Greatly Improved A Steady Gain of Strength—Continued Confidence In His Restoration. Washington, August 3.—Tbe President’s condition continues to denote only steady improvement. There is some comment by outside surgeons that his temperature and pulse continue a good deal above tbe normal condition. This is caused by the irritation of the wound and general condition of the patient. There is not the slightest doubt but that be is on the 6teady road to recov ery. Nothing could be more satisfactory than the President’s condition at thejpresent time. THE MORNING BULLETIN. Executive Mansion, 8:30 a. m.— The President slept tranquilly the greater part of tbe nigbt. This morning his temperature is normal, and his general condition satis factory. Another day of favorable pro gress is anticipated. At present bis pulse is 96, temperature 98.4, respiration 18. THE NOON REPORT. 12:30 p. m. [Official Bulletin].—The President continues to progress steadily towards convalescence. He has taken to-day an increased proportion of solid food. His wouDd is doing well, &Dd his general condi tion is better than yesterday. At present his pulse is 100, temperature 98.4, respira tion 19. SATISFACTORY PROGRESS. 4:35 p. m. [Unofficial Bulletin.]. —The President had a very comfortable ana favor able day. He has taken an ample amount of nourishment, including a fair proportion of solid food. He has slept quietly at in tervals, and has been entirely free from fever. The range of his pulse has been be low one hundred, and his temperature and respiration have been normal. The surgeons report his progress towards recovery satis factory. THE EVENING BULLETIN. 7 p. m. [Official Bulletin.J —The Presi dent passed a very satisfactory day. 'lhe wound continues to do well. He takes au adequate quantity of nourishment, and ap pears in all respects better than at any time since he was injured. The rise in tempera ture this afternoon was slight. At present his puUe is 102, temperature 99.4, respira tion 19. REVIEW OF THB DAY. II p. m. [Unofficial Bulletin]. —The pro gress of the President toward recovery to day has been marked and satisfactory. He has taken rather more than the usual amount of nourishment, including beef steak, milk, beef extract, toast saturated with beef juice, and a little coffee. His strength is daily increasing, and he is able al ready to do more in the way of turning him self in bed and helping himself to raise his body than the surgeons think it prudent to allow. Since last night at this hour he has had between eleven and twelve Louis of quiet, natural sleep, and the hypodermic injection of one-eignth of a grain of sul phate of morphia, which is usually given him after tbe evening’s examination, was reduced to night to one-sixteenth of a grain, which was found to be amply sufficient. The afternoon febrile rise was to-day tri fling, and subsided before 9 o’clock. Since that hour the patient has slept most of the time, and is asleep now, with every prospect of having quite a refreshing night’s rest. Iu tbe opinion of the surgeons he is better and stronger tc-day than at any time heretofore. Dr. Agnew returned to Philadelphia this morning and Dr. Hamilton arrived from New York at 1:30 p. m. In view, however, of the President’s extremely favorable con dition it was not thought necessary for Dr. Hamilton to come to tbe Executive Mansion to night. BRIEF NEWS SUMMARY. The public debt 6tatment shows a de crease of *10,078,023 during July. Bojce’s bagging factory at Muocie, lud., has been destroyed by fire. Loss #30,000. The deaths in New York city during July, numbered 4,250, against 3,350 during July, 1880. The corn crop in Illinois and lowa is re ported light, and many localities anticipate but half a crop. The total coinage of the United States Mints during July, including 2,250,000 standard dollars, was valued at #3,890,200. Rev. Wm. G. Campbell, an aged and ex tensively known Presbyterian clergyman, died in Harrisonburg, Virginia, on Tuesday night. Hon. Wm. G. Fargo, President of the American Express Company, and once Mayor of Buffalo, died yesterday at Buffalo, aged sixty-three years. Burglars entered the office of the City Tax Collector in Wilmington, Delaware, and blew open the safe, but were frightened off without securing any plunder. Three dispatches from Sturgeon Bay, Wis., say that the northern part of that pe ninsula has been damaged considerably by forest fires, and Immense damage is threat ened. Annie Powers died recently in New Brunswick, N. J., “from the effects of tar taric acid poisoning from lemonade.” She drank fifteen glasses of the beverage at an excuision a few days ago. Miss Belle Runyon, of Cincinnati, was killed at Keokuk, lowa, by the fall of a carriage over the canal embankment, a dis tance of eighty feet. Two others ridiDg with her escaped uninjured. Two daughters of Dr. South, of Coteau du Lac,(Quebec, aged respectively seventeen and twenty years, were drowned recently while trying to rescue their younger sister, who got beyond her depth in bathing. The latter was saved. Chancellor Menzies, at Cincinnati, has qua-hed a levy made by the Circuit Court of Kenton, Ky.„ upon the Cincinnati South ern Railroad, with an order for its sale to satisfy a judgment. The Chancellor holds that the railroad was not subject to a levy and execution sale. While Lord Lome’s party was crossing a portage between Black river and White Fish Bay, in Manitoba, a few days ago, Alexander McManus, driver of the baggage wagon, fell from his seat while going down a hiil, and a wheel passed over him, injur ing his spine so badly that he died in a few minutes. At Hughestown, a suburb of Plttston, the ground was observed sinking over the old workings of the Seneca Mines, about three hundred yards in length and fifteen to twenty in width. The house of John Feeney, a miner, was wrecked, and the road leading through the place is considered un safe, it being visibly sunken. While Mrs. Simpson, a boarding house keeper in Detroit, was returning from mar ket, she was shot by a man hidden behind a fence, who immediately ran away. She died yesterday morning, and her husband, from wnom she had been for some time separated, and whom she charged with the crime, was arrested on suspicion. William A. Stuart, county clerk of San Francisco, Cal., who.lt is alleged, has in volved himself in financial difficulties, is said to have left for the East on Friday. The public funds were not touched by him. His mode of procedure is said to have been to get a power of attorney from his depu ties, of which he had over a hundred, with salaries ranging from #IOO to #l5O per month, and draw their salaries or hypothe cate the warrants. If a deputy got impor tunate for his salary Stuart would give him a duplicate warrant, which, in most cases, were sold to brokers. One broker loses #4,000. Science Aiding the Lighthouse De partment. Baltimore Sun. Captain Higginson, Lighthouse In spector, has received an instrument known as a Spiegel goniograph, or double sextant, by which three objects at dif ferent places can be brought in a line. It is intended for locating the position of buoys, lighthouses, shoals, etc. It con sists of a graduated circle, with two verniers and three arms, with double re flecting object-glasses. The three ob jects to be taken are brought together in one straight line, and the instrument is then placed on the chart or map, with the three arms intersecting the three points. By a small hole in the instru ment the position of the buoy, light house, shoal, etc., is marked exactly on the chart. The instrument will no doubt be very useful, especially to depart- I ments like the lighthouse department, where everything must be so exact for the purposes of navigation. It looked at first as if it would require an engineer to run the apparently complicated affair, but Captain Iliggiason and his assistant, J Lieutenant Paul, were soon familiar twill* its workings, ESTABLISHED 1850. A SELF CONFESSED SCOUNDREL. A Reminiscence ot Radical Ways In the South-How Campaign kites Used to Be Coined. Correspondence Sew York Tribune, Rep. “In Mississippi I was told by a num ber of Northern people of an account sent to the Northern press during the ‘Hayes campaign,’ which located an atrocious political outrage at the place which I was then visiting. These per sons seemed reputable, and they all affirmed that nothing of the kind had ever occurred there, Y inquired regard ing the author of the dispatch, and, learning that he was still living a few miles away, I went to see him. He laughed when I told him my errand, took a fresh chew of tobacco, and, cross ing his feet on the top of the table before him, began talking of the affair in an easy, fluent, indifferent style, which seemed to indicate that he was glad to have somebody to talk with, and would as lief talk of that subject as any other. ‘Then the dispatch was not really true?’ 1 said. ‘Well,’ ho re plied, ‘it was true as to the spirit of the South generally at that time.’ ‘But why did you say that such and such things happened at a particular place if they did not?’ ‘Well, now, you know it would not be of any account to say, at such a time, that there was lots o’ devilish feeling in the South. But it rather wakes people up to tell them that something’s been done at a place they've heard of. ’“But it was not true.’ But he thought the use of a fable or parable was justifiable under the circumstances, because it was the only way to give point or effectiveness to any account of the condition of the South at that time. ‘All writers do pretty much the same thing,’ he urged; 'they have to.’ ‘Oh, I hope not,’ I said. ‘Well, now, if you lived down here awhile you’d find out we have to fight the devil with fire.’ The Northern people who told me of this occurrence were good Repub licans, and they were especially indig nant about the fabrication, because it alarmed some of their Northern friends who had been preparing to remove to that region, but were now frightened from their purpose.” RAILROADS IN FLORIDA. An Arrangement for the Paiuee of Trains Through Hr. Dlnton’t Tract. Philadelphia Press, 30th. Hamilton Disston, President Ingram* of the South Florida Railroad, and Col onel St. Clair-Abrams, counsel for the latter company, met yesterday for the purpose of effecting arrangements for the passage of railroads through the large tract of laud in Florida recently purchased by Philadelphia capitalists. Mr. Disston was perfectly willing that the company named should have the right- of-'way, provided that the laud do nated to it should be compensated for by the grant of an additional tract elsewhere of equal value and extent from the State to the Philadelphia par ties. The necessary papers were duly signed by the parties in interest. The South Florida Company agrees to divide the location of towns along its road equally between itself and the Disston Company; it agrees to complete the railroad from Orlando to Tampa Bay in three years at the furthest, and in default thereof will convey to the Diss ton Company all its charter rights to the uncompleted portion, so that the latter can take up the enterprise and carry it forward. They also agree to complete eighty miles through the “big purchase” within eighteen months. A conference was also held yesterday afternoon between Mr. Deming, of the law firm of Alexander fc Green, New York, representing the Jacksonville, Tampa and Key West Railroad, and Mr. Disston relative to an arrangement similar to that made with the South Florida. The matter was adjusted satisfactorily to all concerned. Thirty days grace was allowed the railroad company to sign the papers which will complete the negotia tions. The agreement specifies that operations shall be commenced within six months. Gov. Bloxham, of Florida, was present at each conference, and acted in behalf of the State. Secretary lurch's Successor. Washington Post. The removal, by death, of Secretary of the Senate Burch adds to the compli cations with which the opening of the next session of the Senate will be sur rounded. There is no provision in the rules governing that body for filling a vacancy in the Secretaryship, except by an election; consequently one of its first duties will be the choice of a successor to Colonel Burch. The strongest argument made by the Democrats at the special session against a reorganization of the Senate offices, and in fact the one on which they success fully fought out the issue, was that, with the offices already filled with competent men, there was no necessity for a change. The Secretaryship, on which all the minor positions depend, being now va cant, there can be nothing urged against going into an election as Boon as the Senate convenes. Right here will arise the question as to whether this should be done before or after the admission of the new Senators from New York. In the one case, the Democrats having control of the Senate, may elect the Secretary. In the other, the Senators being seated before an eleo tion is had, it is the next thing to a cer tainty that, with the vote of Mahone and the Vice President, a Republican will be chosen. New York Ruffians.— The New York Evening Telegram pays its respects to the New York rough as follows: “Rowdyism is the curse of our watering places and public conveyances, and our Sabbaths are violated by the worst set of men in the world. Italian and Span ish brigands were bad enough, and Western road agents’ are unscrupulous, but the New York rough is the meanest specimen of humanity. He has only the courage of the wolf, which attacks its prey in gangs, never singly, and he yelps like a cur and Hies when manfully re sisted.” Women teachers in Germany are far from well paid. Salaries begin at S2OO, and never exceed $450. When they re tire, however, they receive pensions. Retirement at the end of ten years’ ser vice secures one fourth of the annual salary given, and for every year of ser vice added to the ten one-eightieth of the pay is given. Wattr. £OO NOGG SYRUP!

An unpleasant feature of the Presi dent’s case is that after the lapse of a month his pulse should continue as high as 101.

The Philadelphia l‘re*s says: “Of the 1,500,000 illiterate voters in tbe United States, 1.123,000 of them are in the old slave States.” It forgets to add that these illiterate voters at the South are, for the most part, members of the Republican party.

The New York Tribune is trying to estimate the cost of Conkling’s little resignation freak. It cannot get the ex act figures, but the cost must be some where in the neighborhood of $250,000, not counting the expenses of Conkiing and Platt. This, remarks the New Or leans Democrat, is a pretty heavy sum to pay for the election of twononenites like Laphain and Miller. It takes just one minute to try a crimi nal in the Tombs Court in New York. Judge S. B. Smith, who presides over that tribunal, was anxious to go to Co ney Island last Saturday, but found" 10*1 cases on the docket before him. He rolled up his shirt sleeves aud went to work in earnest, and in three hours some hundred and odd unfortunates where back in the prison serving out the terms he had awarded.

Some of the papers attribute this to the increa c ed prosperity of the country and the demand for labor, but not so the New York Herald, which declares the tramp has been literally killed off. Tbe race, it was known, was a short-lived one, losing twenty per cent, a year perhaps in rail road accidents, etc., and another twenty per cent, in the jails and penitentiaries. The consequence has been that the whole race has been wiped from the face of this country in the past two years, hav. ing received no recruits in that time. In the Comptes rendus of the Paris Academy of Sciences, X. Camille Flam marion publishes a remarkable note showing, with strong proofs, that it is impossible to maintain the current theory on the mate rial ity of the tails of comets, which are now supposed to be formed of tbe substance itself of the comet driven by a repulsive force emanating from tbe sun. M. Fiammarion main tains that tbe tail of a comet is simply a luminous phenomenon, an electrical or other excitation of the ether, produced by the cometary star in the trace of its shadow. This theory is beginning to nuiqher many partisans. The old Latin motto that “the end crowns the work” applies well to Pro fessor Bell’s experiments with the induc tion balance. As appears from the Washington dispatches, his apparatus has justified the diagnosis of tbe sur geons, and located the ball in President Garfield’s body exactly where they de clared it was. So accurate are the indi cations of the delicate electrical ma chinery that no matter in whose bands it was placed the peculiar sound de noting the presence of the metal was heard with unerring precision wherever the discs were applied to the spot indi cated by the surgeons, and nowhere else. It is another triumph lor Professor Bell and for electrical science. It also affords a gratifying proof of the correct judg ment of the President’s surgeons, in de fiance of the opinions of self-constituted censors. __ The tragic death of Bishop Smith, of the Mormon Church, should, remarks the Albany (N. Y.) Time*, be thoroughly investigated by the government. The thugs of Mormondom doubtless took bis life because he exposed to the govern, ment the bloody massacre at Mountain Meadows. The United States Govern ment is bound’to protect its witnesses. The death of this man is an emphatic protest against the continued existence of a pestilent power, which openly and. ties the laws of God and man. The destruc tion of Mormonism, not as a religious belief, but as an oligarchy whose very life is antagonistic to the supremacy of the United States, is imperatively de manded. We have blandly permitted an avowed enemy to increase in strength on our own soil. A point bas at length been reached when patience with tiuf* people becomes a national outrage. Discussing tbe inadequacy of the Su preme Court as at present constituted, the Philadelphia Pres* says: "These eight or, at the best, nine Judges are totally inadequate to the disposition of the business naturally coming before the Supreme Court. When first organized in 1790 that body consisted of one Chief Justice and five Associates. Since then the country has increased from less than three millions of population to over fifty millions, and its business in much greater proportion. The Supreme Court has in this interval grown from six to nine Justices, and some of their circuit duties are discharged by regular ap pointed Circuit Judges. The court was none too large for the business which came before it eighty or ninety years ago. With tbe immense increase in this business the court has not kept pace, and in its present condition fails to a large extent to meet the ends for which it was constituted.” Another Recruit for Xahone. Senator Mitchell, of Pennsylvania, bursts from his obscurity long enough to indite a friendly epistle to J. Ambler Smith, of Virginia, in which be says: “The effort for the overthrow of the un just rule of Bourbon Democracy in Yir §inia has from the first had my confl ence and heartiest sympathy. I regard that movement as the forerunner of an established free government at the South, under which all rights of ali citi zens shall be respected and permanently r?cured Free schools, fair elections and just laws, faithfully administered, without partiality of race or caste, will bring about this state of affairs; and I would be glad to see all who will work for these objects united together politi cally in every State and section. There fore I say God speed the coalition move ment in your State, and I regret very much that 1 cannot myself contribute to iis success.” His concentrated twaddle on “fair elections,” coming from any Republican, would be amusing, but coming from a protectionist of Pennsylvania, is 6imply farcical. The city election held in Phila delphia last February was probably the only positively fair one she enjoyed in years, and its fairness was owing to a revolt of the better elements of her Re publican population against the rings that have cursed her for a generation. Senator Mitchell poses before the country as an improvement on the speci mens of representatives from the Key stone State that the Camerons were wont to turn out. People were begin ning to form a tolerable estimate of him, but no spoilsman or “striker” of the Camerons could plead more plausibly for the extension of the plunder theory than he does in his letter to Mr. Smith. In falling in line with Frye, and giving countenance to the disorganizes of Virginia he writes him self down a rascal, and every Republi can that follows suit does likewise. Two years ago Mr. Mitchell and his ilk could set no limits to their reprobation of the Democrats of Virginia who forsook party traditions and took up with Ma hone. If it was infamous in them to do so how much more so is it for Mitchell or any other Republican to give the Read justers their countenance and support. The Republican party has professed to be the uncompromising foe of repu diation in any guise, and yet its leaders back up the boldest assault on a State’s honor that has ever been planned. The pretext for it is a libel on reason and a slander on history. But when a man of Frye’s ability comes out in support of it, when the President of the United States entertains the proposition of encourag ing it, it need surprise no one that a mediocre politician like Mitchell should pipe his feeble assent to the orders that have apparently gone out from head quarters. A few shrewd Republican* thought that with the adjournment of the Senate the party was well rid, of the bargain. It appears, however, that the reckless are bent on facing the breakers, and if the party escapes serious hurt it will be a remarkable exception to the fate of those who forsake the sub stance for the shadow. The grand old commonwealth has survived many storms, and her recovery from the fiery trial of the civil war shows her people possessed of the old spirit. The serried resources of the Republican party may crush her, but the bold est Radical leaders may well pause ere they invite the judgment her fall in such a contest would invite for them. We cannot do the people ol Pennsylvania, ring-ruled and apathetic as they are, the injustice of believing that Mitchell voices their sentiments in joining this unholy crusade against the honor and happiness of a sister people. We prefer to believe that the following from the Philadelphia Record expresses the judgment of the people of the Key stone Stat’ on Mr. Mitchell’s perform ance: “Senator Mitchell has neither done him self nor his State credit by espousing the cause of the Virginia Readjusters. Tbe cheap talk about Virginia Bourbonism advertises the ignorance of the man who indulges in it. No State in the Union suffered from the effects of the civil war as Virginia suffered, but her Bourbons have managed to bring her from the pitiable extreme of prostration to a con dition of comparative political and finan cial health. Ail they ask is to be allowed to fulfill with honor their self-allotted task. Public Schools in England. Late statistics of education show that England has emerged out of the dark ages of 1870 into the broad beams of general enlightenment in 1880. In 1870 the educational system of England was far behind those of Germany and the United States, and now it has advanced up to the front. The Gladstone educa tion act was passed in 1870, and its bene ficial influences upon England and Wales were immediately felt. A comparison of figures will show the change in the de cade. In 1870,8,281 schools were inspect ed in 1880,17,743, more than double the number. In 1870 there were school ac commodations for 2,000,000; in 1889, 4 250.000. Attendance in 1879 was 1,- 152,389; last year it was 2,750,916. The English school system has improved as fast as these figures have advanced. Twenty-five million dollars were ex pended in the public school interest last year. The salaries paid to teachers, male and female, are about tbe same as those paid in the several grades in this country, and the cost per head for free school education is about the same. The Liverpool “infernal machine” sensation has several peculiar features. First, the British Home Office knew of their shipmeut from Boston before their arrival at Liverpool, and yet was not informed of the names of consignors or consignees; then the alleged dynamite was thrown overboard as soon as found, and consequently there is no positive knowledge that it was dynamite; then, allhough there was no immediate an nouncement of the seizure, no one called for the “infernal machines” on the ves sel’s arrival; and now it is declared im possible at both Boston and Liverpool to obtain any information whatever as to the shippers or consignees. In addi tion to these peculiar circumstances may be cited the fact that billheads from O'Donovan Rossa’s office were found in the shipment, which aid to the detec tion of the shipper would not have been afforded had he sent the “machines” over. The shipment and the discovery bear the marks of a “put up job.” Senator Hill's Condition. —Senator B. H. Hill, having been recently oper ated on in Philadelphia by Prof. Gross for epitholioma, or a cancer of the mucus membraue on his tongue, is rapidly recovering. For a few days after the operation, he used a slate to converse with, but he now talks easily and without any unusual exertion. Mr. Hill left Philadelphia yesterday to join Mrs. Hill at the Rockbridge Alum Springs, where they will remain for some time. The New York Legislature passed a bill at the recent session prohibiting tbe trap shooting of pigeons. The sports will have to use metal birds or glass balls hereafter. Mr. Bergh stopped their sport with the live article. Foreign Trade of tbe United States. Our foreign trade return*, just issued, indicate that the fiscal year ended June 80, 1861, has been the most re markable one in the commercial history of the United States. Our exports exceeded in value $602,819,473, an amount never exceeded in the history of the country. Our imports were $642,- 593,219. Last year the exports were $885,033,658; the imports $667,954.746. There has been a large increase of ex ports, amounting to $66,680,815. and a decrease of imports amounting to $25 361,527. The value of tbe breadstuffs exported was $265,500,000, against $282,100,000 the year before, so that the increase cannot be at tributed to the cause assigned by s:>me writers on the subject. When tTe detailed return is made we shall be able to detect the cause of increase. The enormous increase in our foreign trade in the last decade is shown by a compari son of our exports. In 1871 they aggre gated a value of $442,820,178. which, put beside the figures for this year, $9C2,- 319,473, indicates an increase of over 100 per cent. The excess of imported specie over specie exported in the year ended June 30, 1880, was $75,891,391; for 1881 $91,168,650. In other words, we purchased gold to that amount by means of the balance of trade in our favor. It is anticipated that Europe will continue to liquidate a large trade bal ance with us by sending specie, but not to as great an amount, perhaps, as in the year just passed. Senator Elect Warner Miller. There is nothing very remarkable in the following criticism of the New York Senator, except that it should have been uttered by the New York Times, an organ of his party; “Mr. Warner Miller, United States Senator elect, exhibits a refreshing frank ness in stating his views on public ques tions. Mr. Miller announces bimse.f as opposed to any reduction of the protec tive duty on paper, though he maintains that paper is sold as low, quality for quality, in New York as in London. In that case, it is difficult to imagine any reason for retaining the duty on paper. It cannot yield any revenue to the gov ernment, and it is not needed for the protection of the manufacturer against competition with the ‘pauper labor of Europe, Mr. Miller also announced himself as in favor of aiding the estab lishment of steamship liDes to South America, ‘so that American manufac turers can send their goods there directly instead of by way of London.’ In other words, Mr. Miller is in favor of voting a government subsidy for the building of steamships wnich are not required by the wants of legitimate trade. That, Mr. Miller thinks, would be quite as sound policy as the establishment of ‘star routes’ in Western territories If Mr. Miller means star routes of the Brady order he is undoubtedly right, but the Senator-elect has probably learned by this time that two blacks do not make a white. In due cour.-e he may also learn the expediency of being a little less effu sive and a little more logical.” “It is obvious that our protective sys tem is doing very well. It has enabled us to compete successfully with the mother country' in many important manufactures—even to undersell her in her own markets; and it has not inter fered with the exportation of our great agricultural staples—cotton, grain, to bacco, and the rest. It bas brought us a good revenue, enabling us to astonish Englishmen with the rapidity of the re duction of our national debt. We are not going to part lightly with these and other manife't advantages wb: b our tariff sytem gives us under any t.notion al insanity produced by eloquent bar angues on the beauties of free trade.”— Cincinnati Gazette. Yes, remarks the Courier Journal, the “protective system is doing very well” as a system of robbery. Any sect of business men who are set up in business by taxation levied upon their fellow citi zens for their benefit to the extent of several hundred millions of dollars a year, ought to be “doing very well” in the way of filling their own pockets. As the system was adopted for the sole pur pose of preventing British goods from being introduced into the United States, and the protectionists now declare that they are fully able to undersell Great Britain “in many important manufac tures,” it is very evident that it is time to cut down the duties on the kind of manufactures alluded to, for the necessi ty, if necessity there was, of levying the duties is past, by the admission of pro tection organs themselves. That is per fectly apparent. The people are paying war taxes on many articles manufac tured in this country. Down with pro tection robbery! The New Associated Press Agent. —Mr. J. C. Hueston, who has been appointed General Agent of the Associ ated Press, in place of Mr. J. W. Simon ton, resigned, is a native of Louisiana, and is about thirty eight years of age. His father, many years deceased, was connected with the old Louisiana Cou rier, published in New Orleans, and was a journalist of distinguished ability. The mother of Mr. Hueston is at present re siding in Baton Rouge. About fifteen years ago Mr. Hueston was stationed in New Orleans as the New Orleans agent of the Associated Press. Ou Mr. Simon ton beiDg elected to his late position, re cognizing the ability of Mr. Hueston, he called him to the New York office, where he was his chief assistant until three or four years ago, when he was assigned to the London or European agency, where he is now on duty. He was educated at Princeton College; is a practical printer and and is a graduate of the law department of Columbia College. A Horrible Tragedy. —A dispatch from Fort Smith, Ark., says that a hor rible tragedy occurred on the 29th at Stonewall, Cherokee Nation. Major A. Williams, living near that place, had grown very jealous of his wife, and a number of bitter quarrels between the couple ensued. On the night of the date specified they were in a wrangle of more than usual bitterness, when Williams, crazed with jeaiousy, drew a pistol and sent a ball crashing through his wife’s head, killing her instantly. He then placed the muzzle of the weapon against his forehead, and,pulling the trigger, sue ceeded in inflicting a wound which caused bis death in a few minutes. The dead bodies were found lying only a Jew feet apart. The Williamses were well to do and respectable. Mrs. Williams is described as having been a decided b auty. Mexican Construction Company sul> scriptions, 10 per cent, discount bid, isn’t pleasant reading for the innocents who invented in that magnificent enter prise. Two or three months ago we told our readers that if they had paid their first subscription they would do better to pay no more, but let the whole thing go. Like many roads we know of it will probably go into tbe Bankrupt Court, when further sales of bonds are impracticable. Those who have lived in glass houses all their lives should never throw stones. This is a motto we commend to the syn dicate of -honest men having American credit and construction companies in charge at this time. Wall Street Daily News.

Hnplst Growth of Tianutaclnrlni Interests In Soutb-Ex. velve mills Being Erected—Negro Lotor Found to he a Failure In the Fee* torlee. Vicksburg (Miss.) Correspondence New York Herald. Perhaps no Industry ever Inaugurated In the Pouthern States was more rapidly developed than the manufacture of cotton yarns and coarse goods has been in the past ten years, and the “boom’’ is still rolling on. From Caro lina to Texas the demand is far greater than the supply for skillet labT. improved ma chinery and mote capital The statistical re ports of lad year sh w the average annual dividend of the principal mills South to be 23JJ per cent. The result is that Eastern capital is seeking this class of investment. Southern mills on a sma’l scale having paid well their proprietors desire to double their capacity. Accordingly in a great number of places new mills are being started. At Huntsville, Ala bama, for Instance, a year since, there was no s'gn of a mill. Now both a cotton factory and a cotton seed oil mill are being built there. The superintendent of the cotton mill comes from Rhode Island and inves s his capital. Within the past six months an Ohio man has started the spindles humming nt Tuscum bia, Alabama, spinning yarns direct from the seed cot'on, and says be will make 35 per cent, on his investment tbe first year. A 5,000 soindle mill is being erected at Montgomery, the capital of the State The Tuscaloosa (Ala.) mills have more orders than they can All. and want to double their facilities. The Se’ma (Ala.) mills are a success, and others will short ly be erected there. Huntsville is tbe hand somest, tbe most healthy and one of the wealthiest cities in the State. and, if expe ri-nced New England manufacturers would go there, they could enlist SSOO,(KfO in factories. Arkansas has several successful factories, which have been built in the la*t few years. The largest and must successful are at, Little Rock. Pine Bluff, Arkansas, has a $310,000 cotton manufactory movement on foot, with more than one half the capital paid in. Fort Smith is building a *IOO,OOO cotton-seed oil mill. At Royston, in Pike county, is the oldest mill in the State It pays handsomely, and the owners are anxious to enlarge It. Capi talists have just advertised at Little Rock for bids to erect another mill there to contain 1.00,- 100 bricks. MANUFACTURING INTERESTS TN GEORGIA. Georgia the Empire State of the South, is now and probably will continue to be the lead er in manufactories among tbe Southern State. At Columbus, upon the finest water power in the land, are now the largest cotton m ils in tbe South. Among the enterprises there it “a corpo ration which hes grown from ort, is the most profitable. The capi tal emploved is fl.OuO: 1 cord, 200 spindles. 7 hands. This spins cotton direct from the seed by anew process, and reports a profit of 40 per cent. Her largest and best mills built within the past few years are paying 21 and 33 ner cen f The average dividend of all the mills in South Carolina is 23>4 percent. The most marked result of this is that within the past haif year, since that report was pub lished, a half million dollar cotton factory has been started at Charleston, SIOO,OOO of the stock being already subscribed, much of it from Boehm. One of the mills built this year is at Orangeburg, 8. C., and reports a profit of over 30 per cent. A large manufacturing com pany at Cos umbia, 8. C.. desire to double their stock—from $300,000 to SIOO,OOO. A well known firm of Providence, K. 1., are expending seve ral million dollars in developing the grand water power of Columbia, and expect to erect several large mills on it. An exteosive manu facturing company has just been organized at Sumter, S. C and the company has ordered improved machinery from Lowell, Mass. Gaff ney City, S C., is anew town, yet they have subscribed sfo,me of the larger mills use steam power. Many of ihe mills have more orders than they can fill. The new mill Milding at Corinth has been bought by anew company, and will soon commence business. PROGRESS IN MISSISSIPPI, At Vicksburg, the largest city in the State, a large cotton factory movement is on foot. Nearly $300,000 has been subscribed in tbe city, and it is expected to raise as much more East and have the Eastern stockholders take the management, build, equip and operate it. Columbus, Miss., has anew cotton seed oil mill, and is raising stock for a cotton factory. If she would do so and convert the 30.C03 bales of cotton she handles by spinning it into yarns, instead of getting about a million and a half dollars for ner crop, she would realize $2,713,- 090 for it as thread. A New Orleans company is starting a large mill at CantOD, Miss. At Water Valley the machinery has arrived for a small mill to be enlarged if successful. Mis sissippi takes the palm for fine cottin. The Vicksburg mill.tfor instance, will u-e a staple one and three eighths inches long, buying ai rect from the planters' wagon, will save all in cidental expenses and w ill secure a year’s sup ply of cotton in getting the crop of few planters around the city. Many of these mills are specially exempt from all taxes. Tennessee, though not as large a cotton raising State as the three just (south of her, is yet increasing her cotton manufactories. One of tne largest mills in the South is located at Nashville and a dividend of 14 per cent was sufficient in lucensent to build another. The mills at Pulaski, Tenn., have ari ecialty, and are so overrun wl'h orders that they are anxious to double their capaci’y. At Jackson, in West Tennessee, the people in tend erecting a cotton factory, nd they have a'ready about $50,0C0 subscribed for that pur pose. The I.one star State has but recently awak ened to tbe importance of spinning some of her own vast cotton crop, and it is not unlikely that several factories will be erected out there soon. Already a number of small thread mills are in successful operation at Columbus and other towns Houston bas a fine opening for tbe right man. The building and machinery are already on the ground, and there is needed only a guiding head with enough capital to put it in order. Dallas is inaugurating a $230,- UOO factory, and Sherman wants a $75,800 one. SOUTH KRX ADVANTAGES. When the Northern people read such evi dences as these they must realize the vast growth of this industry in the South: but when they go South themselves, no matter in what Stat- r they may travel, they will see such further evidences as will lead them to exclaim, as did the Queen of Sheba on beholding the glory of Solomon, “Ihe half has not been told!” The chief advantage in the South is in getting cotton cheap. The cost of getting a bale of cotton from the field ia the South to the mill in the East is $7 per bale, which ag gregates 13 per cent, which is 2 per cent, more than tbe annual average dividend paid by forty of tbe principal mills of New England. Again, while the Northern mil! works ten hours a day—sixty hours a week— many of the Southern mills work seventy seven and some eighty-four hours a week* The cost of living is less South than East. And certainly when the Southern people prove their friendly professions by their works and put their capital into the hands of those they invite to co-operate with them none can question their good faith. Cotton may still be king In the South, but his dominion is no longer confined to the broad and undulating prairies lifting their snowy bosoms to the warm summer sun: for the hum of the spindle and tbe clash of the shuttle are now heard in many cities and val leys The people are accordingly beginning to realize that one hand in the factory is equal to four in the field, and as they gradually learn by experience the profits to be secured in the factory all of their idle capital will be Invested in manufacturing cotton goods. Ex Senator Conkiing says there is not a word of truth in the Washington Crit ic’s alleged interview with him. CHAIRMAN BULL’S MISFORTUNE HU WM Brutally Assaulted In tbs Adirondack mountain*. Philadelphia Press. Chairman George Bull, of the Demo cratic City Executive Committee, and a prominent member of the Philadelphia bar, was seated at breakfast yesterday morning in the Girard House perusing a newspaper at the same time, when his eye fell upon a paragraph which caused his cheek to turn pale and his blood to almost curdle in his viens. It was a dis patch from Troy, N. Y., stating that Charles Parker, a guide in the Adiron dacks at Blue Mountain lake, while guiding Mrs. George Bull, the day pre vious, from Forked lake to Long lake, where she was to have been the guest of ex-Senator Platt, committed an outrage ous assault r >on her, almost strangling her and tear og her clothes to pieces in the struggle. Mr. Bull knew immediate ly that the lady referred to was bis wife, who was visiting in that locality, aud for an instant he nearly fainted. Chief Clerk John E. Wilson happened fortunately to be hand and Mr. Bull was assisted to his own room, where he re ceived the sympathy of his many friends who had learned of the terrible occur rence from the newspapers. The unfor tunate husband was entreated to keep up his heart and was repeatedly assured that the news was exaggerated. While deeply sen-ible of the devotedness of his many warm friends Mr. Bull was naturally placed in such a position that he could not remain calm. He bore himself bravely for a time, but soon broke down, and his only desire seemed to be to get where he could obtain reliable intelli gence of his wife’s condition. Accord ingly he took the limited express train at 1:30 for New York, intending to go from there directly to the scene of the assault in the Adirondack Mountains and rejoin his wife as soon as possible. A number of sympathizing companions ac companied Mr. BuH to the depot, and each one expressed the feiveat hope that he would find his wife safe and unin jured. Last evening be sent the follow ing dispatch from New York to Mr. Wilson, at the Girard House: “A dispatch from Holland says she is all right. Will wait here until to morrow.” Mr. Wilson said to a Press reporter last night: “I feel sure that the dispatch in the morning papers was greatly over stated. Mrs. Bull was a strong, plucky little voman, and I am eure that no boefily barm has come to her except, perhaps, a few scratches from her strug gle with the villain. About two months ago Mr. and Mrs. Bull gave up house keeping in West Philadelphia and came to board at this hotel. Mrs. Bull was a lively, well spoken lady, and speedily became a great favorite with the other boarders in tbe house. She is of medium height, and very prepossessing and at tractive in appearance. A week ago she left home tor the Adirondacks, and Mr. Bull intended to follow her as soon as he could arrange his business. Mrs. Bull was accompanied by her maid-ser vant, who was capable ot affording her ample protection. On Tuesday Mr. Bull received a dispatch from his wife, saying that she had met with an acci dent, but w ithout stating the nature of it. That worried her husband a great deal, and, when he saw tbe news in the papers, he was completely upset.* ATLANTA’S RAILROAD BOOM. Hundred* ol' .Heu at Work on the Mscou Extenalou to Atlanta—Kail* for tbe Koine Extension—Tbe tieor* Sjla Pacific. Atlanta Constitution. Colonel McCracken says that he has now at work on the liue of the Macon extension about four hundred men, and by Saturday night there will be from seven hundred to one thousand actually engaged in grading the road. This force will be increased as rapidly as possible. Colonel Cole says that he can complete the Rome aud Macon extensions both by the first of next April. The steel rails for the Rome extension ought to begin arriving iu Atlanta to day. When they once commence there will be daily re ceipts until both the roads are supplied. On the Georgia Pacific the grading force has crossed the river, and is push ing on towards Douglasville. This force is being augmented by new hands, and as soon as the location of each twenty miles is made, a neW force will be put ou that part of the road. At the other end of the line tbe first twenty miles from Columbus this way has been com pleted, and the second section is being opened rapidly. The contract has been made with Mr Holcombe, of this city, for twenty thousand cross ties, delivery to begin in a week and be kept up as fast as they can be gotten out. Colonel Johnson and Mr. Gordon, of the construction company, are in the city, and are closing contracts for various sorts of work on the line. All of Atlanta’s roads, it will be seen, are in good condition, and the work ia being bravely pushed ahead. FRIGHTFUL ACCIDENT. A vi oiher aud Her Cbildren Drowned In Their Carriage. The particulars of the terrible acci dent which occurred Friday near Sur rounded Hill, on the Memphis and Little Rock Railroad, Arkansas, are given in the Western dispatches. It appears that A. W. Lawrence, in com pany with his wife, baby and daughter, about sixteen years of age, were driv ing in a carriage to visit some friends at Surrounded Hill. Reaching a small bayou, tbe mother with her infant in her arms and daughter stepped out, while Lawrence led the horses and carriage on the ferry, a small fiat boat. The ladies then stepped aboard, and the craft was pushed into the s ream. When midway the horses became frightened and began rearing and backing. In their struggles they crowded the mother, baby" and daughter into the stream, and finally ended in backing the vehicle and them selves overboard into the midst of the struggling unfortunates. Lawrence,made frantic by the accident, jumped over board and attempted to rescue his wife and children, but without avail. The horses, carriage and victims were mixed in an inextricable mass and all went down together. The bayou was subse quently dragged and tbe bodies of tbe unfortunate victims recovered. £t. garobs COU.

Pat Into Port tu Dltre*. The schooner 8. W. Perry, Captain G. F. Dujay, from Boston July 9;h, of aud for Galveston, with general cargo, put into this port vesterday in distress The Captain reports on July 28tb latitude 29:50, longitude 74, he encountered a seveie hurricane, during which the main sail was carried away, sprung both masts, had decks swept of everything movable, and started the vessel leaking badly. In her shattered condition it was deemed necessary to bear away for Savannah. July 31 were spoken by the Italian bark Angelina, from Galveston for Liverpool, and at their request Captain Scotta, of the bark, kindly bore away and kept company until the weather moderated so the vessel could make Tybee. Captain Dujay desires to express bis thanks and gratitude to Captain Scotta for his kindness, the disabled condition of the Ptrry making it a very hazardous mat ter to remain on board, and the crew could hardly have done this except for the near vicinity of the bark.

An Astonished Colored Citizen. Yesterday, about half-past twelve o’clock, a colored citizen was meandering along the Market dock during the shower, protected by an umbrella, when a slight squall struck his extended parachute and carried him and his improvised bad ion eff the dock into the river. He was, as may be imagined, con siderably astonished and floundered around lively. He was fished out by some sympa thetic spectators dripping wet. Beyond the unexpected “shock to his nervous system” and the wetting he sustained no damage. Sad Drowning of a Promising Youlli. Yesterday afternoon about 5 o’clock a young lad named Joseph Beytagb, while sitting on a log near Roberts’ old saw mill, on the river, lost his balance and tumbled into the water, which at that point is quite deep. He was drowned before assistance could reach him. Winn, the diver, made several efforts last night to rec >ver tbe body, but without success. Young Beytegh was reputed to be a bright, promising lad, and his sad death is greatly to be regretted. Body Recovered. The body of the old colored man, Henry Williams, who was drowned near the Cen tral wharf a few days since, by tumbling from his bateau while in tbe act of taking a drink out of a bottle, was discovered yester day floating in the river, near the foot of East Broad street, and was secured. The Coroner was notified, but in consequence of otner official duties, no inquest was held last evening.. The stomach being the chief organ of digestion, is subject to a variety of troubles brought about during the spring and sum mer months by the consumption of Improper articles of food, impure water, and other things. When a man’s stomach is out of order, he becomes an exceedingly unhappy creature, and doctors* bills roll in with a regularity that Is positively dreadful. Ail this is unnecessary. If the victim would In quire of any respectable druggist, be would learn that in Perry Davis’ Fain Killer, a remedy of forty years’ standing, he has a certain, safe—aud in ali ordinary cases an instantaneous—cure for diarrbeet, dysentery, cholera, cramps, and other affections of the stomach.

A large number of instructors is employed, and painstaking in struction is guaranteed. It offers a liberal English, or English and Classical course for graduation, and, under its new administration, has already graduated (with diploma) Tour very promising classes. The Domestic Arrangements of the Academy have latterly been readapted to secure to its resident pupils the largest measure of comfort and convenience.

Systematic and en lightened i hysical culture and care of health are prominent features in the improvements recently perfected. Exceptional facilities are offered for the study of Music.
