And blindly worshipped as my very lire- my light. And on the winds the fateful message fell; Twas but a whisper from a world afar. Yet in my ear 'twas like a fearful knell, Outsweiling from some empty funeral car Whose closing doors dark angels hold ajsfr' Twas but an echo of the word I spoke. l.ong years ago when on the slender chain Which bound our souls we laid our hands—it broke. And that after-word my mem’ry will retain. As bearing all I ever knew of pain. “Gone!" wil.l -pirits hovering in the air Caught up my c y with many a startled w&ii. As though it w. ■■some falien angel’s prayer And shrieked it out to every passing gale Until it seemed a word of very bale! And through the years that slowly wane away And find me here in life, unloved—alone— Whenever I dare for his return to pray. His voice through space but sadly echoes “gone!’’ Which spirits bring with many a s'ghing moan! Across the starlight's holy hush to-n'ght, An unseen presence parts the ether rare. Obscuring half the pure empyreal light. And in these words his voice floats sadly clear, “In God's fair home, I must await you here'." Monticello, Fla., August 18, 1831. bfdrsia Affairs. The prisoners in Fulton county jail planned and came near executing a general jail deliv ery the other day. With a small rod of iron they broke the chains from a criminal in a dungeon, prized off a plank from the floor, and had but to dig through two feet of brick and mortar to mak a bold dash upon the keeper’s office. But he heard the noi-e, and their hopes vanished. The Atlanta Post-Appeal says the east end of Kimball's cotton show house was run into the other day by a tart of a loaded train of cars and knocked down. Not a timber was left standing in 160 feet.

The Atlanta Post-Appeal, August 30th, says: last night the committee had before it the editors of the city daily newspapers. Few questions were asked them, and the drift of the examination seemed to be to discover the owners of the lease shares, and whether there had been any discrimination by the lessees.” Mad son Madisonian: “Hon.

After reaching home he learned that the child was sitting on the see ing machine near the window, when it became frightened and tumbled out. The child was about nine months of age, and the distance to the ground was about twelve feet, but fortunately tte fall resulted in no injury.

The Post Appeal says rows were frequent Wednesday in various parts of Atlanta One of them reached the Recorder’s Court, which developed that the watchman at the com press was assaulted with stones by a negro raob and hit in two or three places. Whisky, as usual, appears to have played a leading p-.rt. On Broad street, near Peters, somebody rammed a cheese box over the head of another somebody, both colored, but the party said, as he pulled a nail outof his head, that he sup posed it was a joke. There was another row between two white men at Bradley’s store on IVcatnr street, and they landed in the Re corder's Court. Atlanta Post-Appeal: “A Mr. Ford, an aged gentleman who has been boarding for some time with Mrs. Edward Cox at Decatur, and had been acting strangely for some days, was found at 2 o'clock this morning in the yard, having jumped from the uj stairs verandah, some twenty feet. He was taken up uncon scious and Dr. A. S. Maon sent for. but his services were unavailing, the unfortunate man's injuries being fatal, and from which he died at san’ ise this morning. Various causes are assigned for his death, one that he fell from the verandah, another that he jumped with ths intent of committing suicide, and still another, that in a fit of temporary aberration of mind, superinduced by some days of ex cessive Indulgence, he threw himself to the ground.” Of the Covington fire, a dispatch to the Au gusta Evening News, of August 31st, says: ‘This morning about 2 o’clock a fire was dis covered issuing from the stores of Thos. Camp and S. N. Stallings, on the weßt aide of the public square in this place. The alarm was sounded, and the citizens were soon upon the grounds to find the fire under such headway as to be impossible to save the buildings. The flames spread rapidly, and the entire block was soon enveloped by the devouring element The following houses were burned: l bomas Camp, hardware; 8 N. Stalling*, groceries; B C.

Brown, drugs; Dealing A Gwmn. dry goods: the beautiful residence of the late Dr. Hendrick, opposite Cox's Hotel, the Enterprise newspaper office, and a negro cabin in rear of Bearing Gwinn’s.” Americus Recorder: “Nothing has transpir ed in our county in a long while of a sadder na ture than tbe sudden drowning on Saturday morning last o( tbe little son of Mr. Bid K Jor dan, of Schley. Going by the Parker, or old Kamsev mill, on return home from Americus, the father left his little boy in the bug.yand went in to get a seek of meal. The miller, Mr Billy Parker, came out to hold the mule, when he took fright, backed off the dam.precipitating tbe boy, buggy and mule into the deep water. Though unable to swim. Mr. Jordan sprang in to save his son. It was some moments before the miller could rescue Mr. Jordan, during which time the child sank. Unsuccessful at tempts were made to obtain the child by diving; one party felt the body with his foot and brought it up. Life was not quite extinct, but all attempts at resuscitation proved unavail ing. the body having been under water for near ten minutes. The mule was also drowned.” Florida Affairs. Our Luravilie correspondent, August 30th, writes: ‘The farmers of this county are very despondent over the outlook in cotton.

F., August 29, says: The sailing ship Heather, Capt. David Decoste, laden with cattle and general produce, arrived this morning from Antigonish, after a fine run of four days. On Friday, the 26th inst., at eleven o'clock a. m the Heather sighted and bore down on a dis masted and, to all appearance, a gener ally disabled vessel. On approaching the wreck Captain Decoste observed, with the aid of his telescope, that she was called the Cortie, which name was printed in large black letters on the white ground of her starboatd bow rail. The name was not reproduced on the stern of the vessel nor on any other portion of the hull observable on board the Heather. The vessel, which was evidently of United States construction, was of about 120 tons burden, and was probably schooner rigged. Her spais and masts were completely gone, not a vestige ot them attaching to the hull. The lower masts were sawn off close to the deck. Her rigging was totally shorn awav from the denuded vessel, not a rope’s end being pendant from her sides. The chains and anchors, t.nd all hawsers, lines and loose deck gear had also dis appeared. The cabin was smashed upon on two sides, but, strangely enough, the hatches were completely closed, and bore no evidence of recent disturbance. No boat, or boat’s gear was seen around any portion of the dis mantled vessel. The rail was smashed in several places, and the bulwark on both sides of the ship showed numerous apertures and abrasions, as if wrought by the violent application of a crowbar or some other instrument of destruction. Captain Decoste had no hesitation in boldly affirming that all the evidence present, and every indication he saw, impressed him with the conviction that the vessel had been boarded by pirates and had been pillaged and stripped. The schooner was cut up in piecemeal throughout some portions of her hull,and the apparent violence of men’s hands was everywhere visible. Nothing remained completely whole except one large water cask, which was lashed to the port side. The ill-starred Cortie has her hull painted black with a white streak run ning around her waterways. Her top gallant forecastle was painted white and her cutwater terminated in a gilded bil let head. Her stern was of the half elliptical order, but was sunk too far under water to allow Captain Decoste to discover her name, if there, and port of registry. When passed by tbe Heather the Cwrtie was about forty-eight miles southeast of Scatteree, Cape Breton, and was in latitude 45 deg. 40 min. north, and longitude 58 deg. 54 min. west. Captain Decoste would have made an effort to tow this mysterious ocean waif into port hut he had no towing gear on board his ship and the water at any rate was too rough to permit him even if he possessed all the necessary requirements. Young Women of “Beastly” Taste. The taste of someof the young women in this country is beastly. Only a few morniDgs since, while traveling by tram way, I saw a fellow trave'er pass a young lady a copy of a daily newspaper. “Are there any murders in it she asked. “Yes, two or three,” replied the gentle man. “Are they nice ones earnestly asked the young woman. And, without watting for a response, she clutched the newspaper and eagerly scanned its re port of a horrible butchery in Georgia, and another murder in a Western State. The idea of a young woman, whose gen eral appearance gave evidence that she had been accustomed to move more or less in society circles, reading a news paper only for the accounts of crime which it might contain! And the idea, too, of asking if the newspaper had ac counts of “nice murders!” Does not the editor agree with me that the tastes of some of the young women in this country are too awfully beastly for any thing A Londoner in the Boston Post. Attacked by Alligators. —A col ored farmer, named Frank Woods, residing in the eastern part of Harrison county, Texas, says that a neighbor of his, while crossing Caddo lake, last week, in a skiff containing a quarter of; beef, was pursued by a school of alligators. When about a quarter of a mile from the shore, eight of the monsters attacked the skiff, seizing and endeavoring to overturn it. By hard rowing tbe boatman reached a cypress tree, which he seized and ascended, abandoning the skiff to the alligators. He remained in the tree until next day, when two fishermen, who were crossing the lake, heard his cries and went to his assistance. The alligators attacked the rescuers, but by the dexterous use of their oars and a double-barrelled shot gun they suc ceeded in keeping, the enemy at bay until the unfortunate man, more dead than alive, could be gotten out of the tree and rowed safely to the shore.

Tbe Question of His Removal—Tbe Cabinet and tbe Succession Mr. Blaine’s View of tbe Cane—Dr. Bliss on the Symptoms and tbe Treat* meat. Washington, September 1. Public confidence In the permanent charac ter of the President’s recent improve ment was much shaken this morning by an unfortunate wording of the first official bulletin of the day. In referring to the slight febrile rise which took place last evening, a rise which, if it had not been officially commented upon, would probably have passed unnoticed, the surgeons in their morning bulletin said: “This condition was unaccompanied by rigors or sweat ing.” Tbe use of the much dreaded technical “rigors,” the surgical iquivale t for the more familiar and less ominous word “chills,” seemel to cause everywhere a vague feeling of apprehension, and from the fact that rigors were mentioned at all, the Inference was generally drawn that rig ors must have been expected in conjunc tion with last night’s fever, or at least that there were foreshadowings of rigors thla morning, and that the bulletin was intended to prepare the public mind for them. “Why,” it is argued, “should they have said that thg. fever was not accompa nied by rigors unless they had expected or had some reason to expect that It would be so accompanied The explanation given by the surgeons to day of the wording of the bulletins and the reasons assigned for their reference to rigors are briefly as fol lows: Once or twice in the history of this case it has happened that after a good day, a day in which no febrile rise occurred, fever, accompanied, or speedily followed by rigors, came on late in the evening, as tbe first warning of an unfavorable change. The President yesterday had an unusually good day until after the appearance of the evening bulletin. There was no appreciable rise in temperature and no reason to suppose that there would be any. Later in the evening, however, the fever came on unexpictediy* The febrile rise was not very great, nor did it excite any apprehension in tbe minds of the surgeons, but it occurred at rather an udusuhl time, and Ur. Woodward remem bering that the fever, wfcen it came on at this hour in the evening, bad ouce or twice been accompanied by rigors, and followed by the development of anew complication, thought it would allay apprehension and show that no evil consequences were to be feared from this particular febrile rise, if it were stated In the bulletin that no rigors or sweating accompanied it. Especial atten tion was, therefore, called officially to the fact that these alarming symptoms were absent. The good intentions of tbe sur geons, however, were defeated by the form of expression given to them, and, Instead of allaying apprehension, the well meant bulletin excited it. Notwithstanding the febrile rise, how ever,the patient had a fairly good night, and his condition this morning was at least as favorable as It was yesterday morning. Tbe range of his pulse was rather higher through out the day than yesterday, but unlit four o’clock there was no appearance of fever,and his general condition showed a further slight Improvement. He chewed a piece of beefsteak this forenoon and swallowed the juice, and at intervals later in the day had a little chicken stewed in milk and a plate full of soup, besides the usual quantities of beef extract and milk porridge. AN INTERESTING TAI-K WITH DR BLISS. In an Interview with a reporter of the As sociated Press this evening, Dr. Bliss gave the following details with regard to the symptoms and treatment of tbe patient, to day, and they may be taken as a comprehen sive statement of the present; aspect of the case: “What ie your j -dement to night, doctor, with regard to the pi ogress made by the President since morning?” “The President has h id a very excellent day. The range of his pulse has been rather higher than ytsterday, but not high enough to cause uneasiness, and hfs general condi tion has, I think, slightly Improved. He continues to take his nourishment well, and his whole expression and appearance are better than yesterday.” “What about the gland?” “There is more Improvement, perhaps. In the glaDd than in anything else, The (well tog has decreased very much in size, and tbe gland is fast assuming Its natural ap pearance and dimensions. There is hardly any distortion now in the configuration of the face.” “Have you made any change in the treat ment. of the swelling?” “Yes. We have discontinued poulticing. When a swelling of this charac’er reaches a certain point, continued fomentation is an injury to it rather than a benefit. It soft ens and weakens tbe integument, and has a tendency to cause sloughing. Of course, all the dead cellular tissue will eventually come away, but it Is unnecessary to destroy the vitality of that which may still be living by too much poulticing. We therefore dis continued that part of the treatment and applied for a short time a stimulating oint ment. We are now putting nothing on the gland but lint and simple cerate.” “How many openings has tbe swelling now “Six, including those into the mouth and ear. Four of them were made by incision, and two were spontaneous. The last cut was the largest and deepest, and it is thought that most of the pus Is now dis charged.” “Is the dischrge of pus continuous “It orzes out more or less all the time, but we have pressed the gland gently twice to day to iDcsease tbe outflow We ihall repeat the operation once during the night in or ter to avoid the febrile rise, which the retention of pus causes. The presence of a single ounce of pus in the gland is suffi cient to cause a good deal of febrile dis turbance.” “Is the opening from the gland info the mouth an opening through the duct or through the cellular tissue adjacent there to?” “We cannot tell yet with certainty. I am inclined to thlDk that it is through the cellular tissue close beside tbe duct.” “Would not an opening in'o the duct be difficult to beal on account of tbe continu ous flow of the saliva through it “1 might be.” “Will there be any distortion of the Presi dent’s face after the gland heals up?’’ “I think not. The right eyelid has been slightly affected, owing to the fact that the fifth pair of nerves run directly through the parotid gland, and they have been badly squerzed by the inflammation, but this slight affection of the eyelid shows an im provement to-day, and 1 don’t think you would notice it at all.’’ “Upon the whole then the condition of the gland to-night is very much Improved?’’ “Yes. It has never looked better. “Is the wound doing equally well?” “The wound has not changed much in appearance. The quantity of pus dis charged from it this morning was not as large as expected, although the pus Itself was healthy in character.” “To what Is the diminished outflow at tributable?” “It may be due to the fact that the sup purating surface Is now comparatively small and growing smaller, while the granu lating surface is increasing. If such be the case,the diminished secretion and outflow of pus are natural.” “To what depth is the wound now open?” “I could not get the catheter in this morn ing to a greater depth than eleven Inches.” “The wound has been open heretofore, has It not, a distance of twelve Inches and a half?” “Yes; and I am Inclined to think that the inch and a half of difference Is due to heal ing.” “Has the process of granulation been fully re-established?” “Well It Is going on slowly. That pro cess was the last to give way during the partial Inanition of last week, and it will probably be the last to recover. It will, however, go on rapidly as soon as the glandular complication Is disposed of, and the system begins to feel the full influence of the Improved assimilation of food. Upon the whole, the wound is doing as well as could be expected.” “Is there anything to be said about the stomach?” “Nothing, except that It Is performing 1U functions fairly well. The patient takes all the food now that he ought to bave, and It seems to be pretty well digested. He had a good movement of the bowels this afternoon, and all the indications afforded by it were favorable.” “You say that you think the patient has made a slight gain to-day; in what is it manifested “Principally in the improved condition of the gland and in the patient’s general ap pearance and expression. His face has now an expression of ease, quietness and repose, which it has not bad heretofore, and which Indicates a better state of the entire sys tem.” “Has there been any further discussion to day of tbe question o’f his removal “Yes. We have talked it over some, but nothing has as yet been agreed upon. We shall move the patient, of course, as soon as we can do so with safety, but in what way and to what point we have not yet decided. I chink my own preference is for his removal by rail, but I have not given the subject full considera tion, and have not heard all that may be urged in favor of transportation by water. I give my opinion therefore with reserve.” “Would not the noise and jar of railway travel be injurious to the patient “I think we can to a great dejp-ee escape both. We have received from a civil engi neer, who bas evidently gives a great deal of thought to the subject, a number of sug gestions with regard to movement by rail, which seem to us pertinent and valuable. He suggests that we get one of the best railway coaches which can be obtained, remove the seats from It, and suspend a bad-in the cen tre by four ropes fastened at the top to strong spirals or springs, which should be firmly bolted to tbe roof of the car. Tbe springs, if properly proportioned in strength to tbe weight of the patient and the bed, will so soften all the jarring as to make it almost imperceptible. He suggests further that the car be ballasted with bars of rail road Iron, so that It will run more smoothly and with less jumping, and that It be put In front of the traio, with the surgeons’ car next, a palace car third and the engine last. By this arrangement the President’s car would escape all the dust and smoke and most of the noise. We should not, of course, run very fast, say fifteen miles an bour, and, if our destination were, for in stance, Long Branch, it might be necessary to stop somewhere on tbe road over night. This, however, could be easily managed. We could take care of the patient in a prop erly fitted car as well as anywhere else.” “Can you express an opinion as to tbe time which must elapse before the patient can be safely moved In this way?” “Not, at present. If, however, he con tinues to do as well as he has done during tbe past two or three days the time will not be very long.” In conclusion, Dr. Bliss said that the sub jct will be more fully considered and dis cussed to-morrow. Up to this hour (mid night) there has been no report from tbe surgeons’ room of any change in the Presi dent’s condition since Secretary Blaine’s telegram to Minister Lowell. DR. BOYNTON’S VIEWS. In conversation with a reporter of the Associated Press, this forenoon, Dr. Boyn ton said that the President is doing as nicely as they could wish to have him. The slight fever which occurred last evening, and which is referred to In this morning’s bulletin, was not, Dr. Boynton thinks, a matter of any great consequence. Its du ration was transient, and it was nothing more than one of the fluctuations wbfch are to be anticipated as long as the patleDt re mains in his present weak state. “Has he gained any in bodily strength inquired the reporter. “Not a great deal. I think he made a lit tle progress In that respect yesterday, as much as we could reasonably expect. His general appearance, however, has improved considerably.” “What is the condition of the gland this morning “It looks very well.” “Is there any danger to be apprehended from the opening into the mouth “Not the least.” “How Is the wound doing “I should be a little better satisfied if it discharged more than it does. But its con dition has improved. The pus which comes from it now is much better In character than heretofore.” “How soon do you think the President can be moved “I cannot say definitely. It depends upon the progress which he makes during the next few days If he continues to im prove as rapidly as he has during the past thirty-six hours, it will be safe to move him before long, say within a week.” “How do you think he can best be car ried “I think he can go either by water or by rail without any suffering. He is not sub ject to seasickness, and could stand when he gets better a good deal of gentle swing motion. He could also be moved in a specially fitted railway car without any injury.” “Would not the sudden roar of a pas sing train be likely to give him an injurious nervous shock?” “No, I think not. He isn’t very nervous. The movements and noises in his room do not disturb him as much as they would a well person. EvI NS. Both Bonnes Hard at Work—The c New Capitol Defeated-Bllls Signed by the Governor—The Question of Adjournment. Atlanta, Ga., September I.—ln the Honse the first special order was the new capitol bill. Commissioners L. N. Whittle, J. W. Roberts and C. C. Kibbee reported the valuation of the old capitol at $55,625. This amount Atlanta proposes to pay to wards anew building. The House, in committee of the whole, discussed the bill and the various amend ments for two hours, when, on motion of Mr. Miller, of Houston, the committee rose and reported the bill back with the recom mendation that It do not pass—yeas 73, nays 53. The debate In the Bouse was renewed by Mr. Barrow, of Clarke, the author of the bill, in a strong and lengthy speech, review ing the necessity for anew building. Mr. Garrard, of Muscogee, replied and endeavored to show that there was no im mediate necessity for anew capitol. The bill was lost—yeas 59, nays 88. The second special order was the bill to prevent the sale, delivery or receipt of seed cotton between 6unset and sunrise. Sev eral amendments were offered and speeches made for and against the bill, but It was finally passed unamended—yeas 97, nays 18. The colored members opposed the bill, as they thought it was aimed especially at their race. At the afternoon session a resolution was adopted thanking Judge Wm. M Reese, of Wilkes, for the donation to the State of copies of his work on “The Law of Execu tives and Guardians,” to be distributed to Ordinaries. The session was devoted to reading bills a second time. SENATE PROCEEDINGS. The Senate passed the bill providing a cal endar for the Northeastern Circuit.

Charleston, September 1. —Reports re ceived yesterday from forty seven rice plan tations on the Combahee and Ashepoo rivers, Rantowle’s creek, Edisto river and the eastern and western branches of the Cooper river, show that the damage from the storm to both plantations and crops has been very serious. Out of the whole num ber mentioned three places only escaped with slight loss. The others have been en tirely or almost entirely covered with salt water. Breaks are reported at over thirty places, and the young rice planted in May and June is considered a total loss. Tbe March rice, which is nearly ready for har vesting, has suffered from 40 to 50 per cent. As many of the fields are still under water no definite figures of the loss can yet be given.

London, September 1. —The corres pondent of the Manchester Guardian writes: “Russia, within the last few days, has con firmed the instructions In force during the threatening troubles with China, that all reinforcements for her Pacific possessions are to proceed via the Suez Canal instead of by the tedious route through Siberia. It is asserted that this change will form the basis of a claim for a share in the control of the Buez Canal by Russia, which France is disposed to favor as a counterpoise to Eng lish Influence iu Egypt.” Manchester Market. London, September I.—The Manchester Guardian, in Us commercial article this morning, says: “The sales durtog the month of July in this market hardly exceeded the average production of a single fortnight, and certainly the business of August has, to eav the least, shown no improvement.” The Guardian adds: “We are informed that some hundreds of copies of the list of Liver pool firms, who are connected with the cotton corner, have been distributed on ’Change. This has already had some effect.” A Turkish Insurrection. London, September I.—A Paris dispatch to Reuter’s Telegram Company says: “A telegram from Ragusa states that the In, habitants of Nicka, near Ipek, have risen against Dervlsch Pasha, Turkish command er, and killed some of the Turkish soldiery.

Merryweather, whom everybody in Scranton, Pa., knows, writes and says; “I had long suffered from a de rangement of the bladder and kidneys; it had made my general health poor. I also was troubled with severe indigestion; pills gave me only temporary relief, and I ex perienced great anxiety of mind, as well as physical distress. A friend recommended Brown’s Iron Bitters. I have used it with most gratifying results, and just now my health never was better, and I feel that the cure is permanent,’’ ESTABLISHED 1850. THE RISING EMPIRE IN THE SOUTHWEST. Thonunda of TOllea of Railroad Built—marvelous Spread of In dustry-The Splendid Showing of a Year. Galveston, September I.—A special sta tistical edition of tbe Nem, to be published to-morrow morning, proves conclusively the raDid development of Texas. It shows that 1,634 miles of railways have been eompleted within a year, that within two years forty one additional towns of comme:cial import ance have been reached by rail, or have sprung into existence, and that the value of the Btate’s products has increased from $57,820,141 in 1878-’79, to $95,960,930 in 18SO-’Bl. The cotton crop of the State, its chief staple, reached the magnificent total in the year 1880-’Bl of 1,260,247 bales. The following is the exhibit based on exact figures and calculations of the amount and value of Btate staples for 1880-81. Cot ton, 1,260.247 bales: value, $56,711,115. Wool, 20,671.839 pounds; value, $4,754,525. Hides, 12.262,052 pounds; va1ue,.51,471, 446. Cattle, 781,874 head, including drive; value, $15,923,018. Horses and mules, 28.175 head; value, $1,408,750.

Total value, $95,- 960,930. No data are at hand by which to reckon the amount of money brought into tbe State by immigrants and others, and by investors in real and personal property, al though the amount from these sources must be very large. St. Louis Cotton Trade. St. Louis, September I.—The receipts and shipments of cotton at and from this city for the year ending yesterday, as fur nished by the Secretary of the Cotton Ex change, are as follows: Receipts 398,559 bales; shipments 411,077 bales. Rain* in the Northwest. Chicago, September I.—Dispatches re ceived here show that rains fell last night all over the northwest end in Southern Illi nois, greatly benefiting the corn wherever the crop was not yet wholly destroyed by the drought. Political Complications in the Senate. Washington Special to Cincinnati Commercial Senator Pugh, of Alabama, has been reported as having said that in order to settle the impending dead lock when the Senate is convened in extra session, he would be willing to vote for some con servative Republican Senator, like Mr. Anthony, of Rhode Island, for Vice President and President pro tempore of the Senate. In conversation with the Commercial correspondent, Mr. Pugh said that he had never made such a state ment. “In the presence of such a calamity as has befallen the nation,” said the Sena tor, “I do not think that the public mind should be disturbed by a protract f the imagination to see, however, that before any organization is effected or any newly elected Senators are sworn in, that a Vice President must be elected. The Senate will be without a head as soon as General Arthur is sworn in as President, and it cannot transact any business until after that vacancy is filled. Hence it follows, as a matter of course, that the President of the Senate pro tempore to be chosen must be a Democrat. Ido not for a mo ment lielieve that Senator-elect Miller, of New York, will be allowed to take his seat until the circumstances of his elec tion are investigated by the Senate. The charges of bribery made before Depew withdrew from the canvass in New York State do not appear to affect Mr. Miller’s claim to a seat in the Senate. The ques tion to be considered will be as to the manner of his election, or, in other words, as to whether a majority of a quorum of the Legislature, or a ma jority of the entire Legislature, has the right to elect. Mr. Miller was not elected by a majority of the Legislature. In the Kellogg case the Republicans claimed that a majority of a quorum of the Legislature could elect, and the Democrats controverted that assumption. The question is just as important in the case of New York as of Louisiana, and it really hinges upon what the Legisla ture of a State, under the State constitu tion, really is. I think probable that after the Senate meets caucuses will be held by the parties, at which a joint committee of conference will be appoint ed to consider the question of dividing up the committees and the Senate offices. I have no doubt a satisfactory agreement can be reached. Fatal Fall of Electric Lamps. —On Saturday, while Superintendent Robert Sheehy, of the Brush Electric Light Company, with a gang of men wa3 pre paring to test the four lamps on a 150 feet high pole, which are destined to il luminate Union Square, New York, the hoisting gear at the top of the pole broke just as the lamps had reached the top, and the lamp3 and their carriage, a heavy mass of iron, weighing over 600 pounds, fell with a crash, a hundred feet down to the platform upon which five men were tending the hoisting apparatus. Two of the men were fatally injured, one of them having died since, and the other is in his last throes. Three were seriously injured. Superintendent Shee hy, who was on the platform, saved him self by jumping to the ground. He is reported to be slightly injured. From the German: In a village ap peared once a man, who the people for money told fortunes. A peasant, who himself often about it merry made had, went one day to him in order something about his future to learn. After the for tune teller him various probable and im probable things foretold had, would him self the peasant without more ado again depart. “Well, how is it with the pay?” asked him the fortune teller. “Pay ment?” replied the peasant, and looked him surprised on. “Indeed, yes,” said the other, “shall I then nothing for my trouble get?” “If you all beforehand know,” answered him the peasant, “the past, the present and the future, then must you also know that I no money by me have. Now wait only till all hap pened is, that you to me announced have; then will I you pay.” Three Men Dead in a Well.—A terrible accident occurred on Saturday, at Wild Cherry, Fulton county, Askan sas. Dr. J. D. Hutchison was cleaning out a well on his premises when he be came overcome with foul gas. He cried for assistance, when the man who was hauling up the refuse, in his haste to de scend, fell in the well and broke his neck. The doctors wife screamed for help, and James Bearens came in re sponse thereto. He started to descend, to rescue the men, when he, too, was overcome by gas and quickly became unconscious. Other people had mean while arrived and after an hour or two the bodies were grappled with hooks and taken out all dead. Mr. E. WeDE, St. Boniface, Pa., writes l "I must recommend Bt. Jacobs Oil.

SHE CAME TO FIND THE BULLET. A St. Lout* Electrician Sent Vor by Nr. O. E. Rockwall. Washington Post. Mrs. E. E. Sargent. M. D., of St. Louis, a widow lady fifty-five years of age, arrived at the Arlington yesterday morning on the Baltimore and Ohio train at 6:30 o’clock. She uses electricity in her practice, and said she could locate a ball in a wounded person’s body to the point of a pin by the use of an electric battery which she brought with her. She said she had been very successful in so fixing the location of balls. She had been called in many cases when the patient had been given up by their physicians, and cured them by transferring blood from a healthy body. She was telegraphed for late Saturday by Mr. O. E. Rockwell, brother in law of Mrs. Garfield, to come on at once. She was recommended by several parties, among them the Collec tor of Internal Revenue at St. Louis, who gave her a pass to Cincinnati. She made the acquaintance of a Kansas gen tleman on the train, of stout build and healthy appearance, who, upon learning her mission to Washington, readily agreed to allow a transfusion of his blood to the veins of the President. With that intent he went also to the Arlington. After breakfast yes terday morning the doctor sent over to the White House for Mr. Rockwell, who immediately went to the hotel and saw her. lie said that as the President was a great deal better, perhaps her ser vices would not be needed, but he would see Dr. Bliss and find out whether or not she could see President Garfield. Later in the day she saw Mr. Rockwell, who told her there was no necessity for her services. Thereupon she returned to St. Louis, Mr. Rockwell kindly purchasing her ticket. She has kept for some time an electric bathing establishment at her home, to which she devotes herself. She stated yesterday that she would fix the precise location of the ball in the President’s body in less than half an hour, and that she could certainly cure him if allowed to see him and take charge. She seemed very much disappointed at her fruitless trip, and considered that the doctors had made a great mistake in declining her valuable services, as now he was liable to have a set back, while she had some thing in her box (referring to the electric apparatus) which would work a speedy and certain cure. The Heroine of the White House. Washington Post. According to Captain Henry, of the Presidential household, the first stam pede of Jhe doctors occurred on Friday, a little after noon. The symptoms then were so extremely alarming that they held a hasty consultation and made one more effort to struggle against what ap peared to be the inevitable decree of fate. In spite of every effort they could make, it seemed that the patient was rapidly sinking and his tenure of life only a question of a few minutes or hours. The greatest crisis of all bad apparently arisen. Another consultation, and it. was decided that Mrs. Garfield should be imj mediately notified to prepare for the worst. Having come to this determina tion,two of their cumber visited Mrs, Gar field in her room and plainly laid before her what they believed to 'be the real terrible facts in the case. They said that it was useless to struggle longer, that even what they could do was little, and the limitation of surgery had been reach ed. They stated the situation as ten derly as possible, and asked that she no longer delude herself with the idea of there being any hope of recovery. This was really the first time that they had formally given up the case. It was then that the, pluck of this brave little woman came to the surface. Every feeling of love, and duty, and tenderness of the wife and mother came uppermost in an instant. Rising erect before them and firmly setting her lips against the expression of the emotion that struggled for utterance, she bravely said: “Gentlemen, you shall not give him up. He is not going to die; lie is going to live. I feel—l know it. Go back to your post every one of you, and leave it not until every remedy is exhausted— until death itself has set his seal upon him, for I will not believe that he is dying. Go back and do what you can. You cannot do more, but don’t give up. I am his wife, and I say that we will not give up until the end itself is upon us.” “In this style,” says Capt. Henry, “she met the firsts tampede of the doctors. This is not, perhaps, her exact language, but it conveys tbe idea. There never was such a woman. She has never given way longer than a minute or two at a time to the display of the grief which at times well-nigh consumes her. As soon as these short paroxysms pass away she would return once more to her post, and seemed to inspire those around her with tbe same indomi table spirit, with the same limitless will, with the same supernatural energy. All along she has borne herself with the most remarkable grit I ever saw in a woman. It beats all. While the rest of us were weakening and trembling be tween hopes and fears, she, a weak wo man as you would call her, seemed in spired with this wonderful stamina of mind and body. If Garfield owes his life to anybody, it is to Mrs. Garfield. But for her I believe he would long ago have succumbed to tbe icy hand of death. To her the nation owes it for the preser vation of his life. This seems extrava gant, but 1 tell you we cannot give her too much praise.

According to the Tribune, "they speak enthusiastically of the future of railroad property in this country, and are more than enthusiastic relative to the resources of the country itself. They state that English capital is more than willing to be invested in American railroad enterprises, and that there is a general feeling of security among foreign capitalists in the stability of our enter prises in this direction Strange stories are told by an English man of distinction, who lately made a West Indian tour, of the prevalence of Youdouism in HaytL He asserts that of the 700,000 inhabitants only 20,000 do not openly belong to “Voudou,” and that the Catholic religion,nominally the estab lished worship of the people, is power less to suppress the horrible outgrowth of Paganism. Murder and cannibalism are parts of the Voudou horrors, and the butchery of children marks the Vovtdou feasts three times a year. Of course these horrible rites were imported from Africa by slaves from the Congo, but it appears that the superstition has taken deeper root in this island than elsewhere. If these be facta, civilized nations should unite to suppress these crimes in the interest of humanity. The Indians who are causing all the trouble on the Southwestern frontier, and who will yet give serious annoyance to those engaged in constructing the Texas Pacific Railroad, are the Cos manches, Mescaieros, Plain Apaches and Hill Apaches. A few years ago the Comanches could muster 1,500 warriors, the Mescaieros about 2,500, the Hill Apaches 4,000, and the Plain Apaches 600. The best fighters of the lot are the Comanches and Mescaieros, who have never hesitated to attack a company of Mexican soldiers when the latter out numbered them three to one. The Apaches are good fighters, but they rely more upon strategy and bushwhacking than either of the other tribes. The Boston Pott thinks if ever there were good reasons for fighting the devil with fire it is in the case of a fight with these Vrutal savages of the Southwest. Organs Will b Organs. "Bad counsels are guiding the Bour bon Democrats of Virginia. One of their favorite campaign cries is a threat that the defeat of Bourbonism in Vir ginia will arouse the whole South to *the wildest scheme for repudiating the whole national debt.’ The Bourbons of the South can repudiate nothing out side of their own States, and their own neighbors are now in revolt against them for the havoc they have wrought. Philadelphia Press. It is evident that the time is far distant when the Republican organs will cease to misrepresent the people of the South, against whom they invoked all the appli ances that tyranny could devise. Now that the national feeling that of old swayed the republic is fast returning, prudence, if not justice, should counsel these Northern editors to at least affect sympathy with the common wishes of the people. They have served too long at their trade, however, to forget any of the cunning that long practice has brought them, and it is doubt f ul if they could succeed, did they attempt to deal in a manly spirit with the needs and hopes of the people. Our Philadelphia contemporary, a specimen of whose adroitness in false statement we present above, is an illus tration of the hoplessness of the efforts Radical organs may make at fairness or manliness. In its treatment of matters at home, it is dignified, able and honest. But, when it touches upon any subject of a political character affecting the South it descends to the level of the weakest party organ and grovels in the mire of slander. In the paragraph above quoted it shuts its eyes to a fact which cannot be denied or disguised. If the warning it alludes to so airily is a threat, it did not proceed from Virginia. It came from another quarter, and if the Democrats of Virginia have grasped its significance, it shows that they know the negro better than the Northern edi tors, who counsel him to dishonesty and the surrender of whatever conception of principle he has been able to form. There U needed no better evidence of the truth of the warning than the whole sale surrender of the negroes of Virginia to the aims of Mahone. If the alliance prospers in Virginia it will beget others elsewhere. The negro is everywhere the same. He is ready to do the bidding of any demagogue that may delude him with false promises. Convinced that State repudiation is a good thing, it would not be hard to persuade him that national dishonesty would be better. The plan now resorted to in Virginia was not tried before because it suited the Republican party to set up as the particular champion of honesty. The party is losing ground year by year at the North, and its leaders hope to galvanize the dead organizations in the South so that when the trial comes they may have sup port here, or, possibly, be able to repeat the game of 1876. But their organs may well inquire whether they can afford to foster the spirit they have evoked. True, the wealthy and well to-do m'ght be relied upon to maintain public credit, but these are but a small part of our fifty millions. Let clouds of disaster hide the sun of prosperity in which we have of late been basking, and how many would rally to the cry of re pudiation, when the nucleus of a party committed to dishonesty was at hand? Should that time come, the honest men of the South would be found with those of the North, shoulder to shoulder, in defense of the republic’s good faith. But the negro, wherever found, and the discontented of all sections, where would they stand? The "Bourbons” of the South do not seek to repudiate a dollar of lawful debt, but the security of pub lic credit is menaced by any organized movement against the fufillment of the pledges of any commonwealth. As to "the havoc the Bourbons have wrought,” by this, we are to infer, is meant pretty much the payment of a poll tax as a prerequisite to the exercise of suffrage. Here, too, the organs are blind. In enlightened Massachusetts a citizen caDnot vote unless he can read and write and pays taxes. In the great Keystone State the tax certificate is as all important as the ballot, and yet the organs are horrified to find that a poll tax is required in Vir ginia. It is a hopeless case with the Radical organs. Their chief reliance is falsehood, their wonted garb hypocrisy, and with them principle is a passport to respectability, which they show when it is demanded, but never exhibit when they seek to deceive the credulous or delude the ignorant. The Southern Farmer's Monthly for September. Tiic September number of this ster ling journal of agriculture is fully up to its wonted standard of excellence. In addition to its usual well filled depart ments, it contains the proceedings of the recent session of the Georgia Agri cultural Society at Rome, which will be read with interest by its numerous pat rons. "Work for the Month” is particu larly replete with hints snd suggestions to the careful farmer. The fashion de partment is, as usual, a concise resume of the au fait in dress, and obviates the necessity of consulting periodicals spe cially devoted to the subject. Asa token of respect and sympathy for President Garfield, the Selectmen of Franconia, New Hampshire, have given his name to the mountain which has heretofore been known as the "Hay stack.” This mountain, which is here after to be called Mount Garfield, has long been famous as the most symmetri cal of the White Mountain group, and one of the most conspicuous of the higher peaks, attaining a height of 4,300 feet, which is 700 feet less than Mount Lafay ette, its near neighbor. Sixty years ago it was called "Moose Mountain,” while Moun* Lafayette was knows as the “Great Haystack.” After the assassina tion of President Lincoln the mountain adjoining Mount Lafayette on the south was called Mount Lincoln. The Holy Mother of Riazan has im parted to two drunken Russian peasants her desire that sacred fire shall be carried from her chapel to every corner of Rus sia to purge the land by combustion of the unbelief which is the root of all its miseries. This wholesale incineration will include the Czar and the priests who are held to be unsound in the faith of the fathers. Between those who believe nothing and those who believe too much the Czar’s future would seem to possess a good many malignant features. The President on Sunday asked to sec his daughter Mollie, and when she en tered the room and came to his bedside he took her hand and asked about her health. She replied that she was well and inquired how he himself felt. He said: “I am better. Ask your mother if the boys cannot come in.” She went away, saying she feared she would tire him. "How absurd,” said the father; "the idea that such a sweet child could tire anybody.” Another New Religion, Some people are never happy unless they can invent or adopt some new re ligion. The number and variety of creeds in this country would seem to be sufficient to suit all tastes, yet new ones are being constantly promulgated, much as a person might invent anew mowing machine or anew style of shoes. One of the most picturesque of this season's new sects seems to be that known as "The Chosen,” a Michigan invention, which is too good and pure for that sec tion, and meditates migration to some secluded far Western region. There are already some three hundred believers, and they are ruled by twelve elders, who are getting up anew Bible, and to whom all family or church differences are re ferred. They claim to have had great secrets imparted to them by divine revelation, initiate converts with elab orate ceremonies, keep both Saturday and Sunday as days of rest, and have many holy days besides. Second mar riages, divorces aud separations are strictly forbidden. Members worth over three thousand dollars have to divide with their poorer brethren. This last feature makes it doubtful if many wealthy members will be attracted to the Chosen, or that many expensive churches will be built or high salaried pastors employed. But how will it be when, as is inevitable, those who have once divided become again worth more than three thousand dollars? Will they divide again, and so on ad libitum If so, membership in the Chosen would ap pear to put a premium on laziness and want of thrift It is not likely that any of these novelties in religion will last long. Like skyrockets, they go up with a blaze and a fizz and come down in darkness and silence. Some kind of old fashioned religion is good enough for most people. The Revolutionary Congress, lately held in London, was composed of fifty four delegates, representing three hundred and twenty federatures of groups comprising six hundred thousand organized members. The countries re presented were the United States and Mexico on this continent, and France, Belgium, Holland, Germany, Austria, Italy, Spain, Switzerland, Russia, Servia, Bulgaria, Roumania, Turkey, Egypt and England in the Old World. These incendiary characters advocated and recommended “the total destruc tion, by force, of existing political and economic institutions,” and rely on dynamite to bring about the desired de struction of said "political and economic institutions.” As far as the United States is concerned the crime which has stricken the country in the person of its sirring Chief Magistrate will effectu ally stifle all such Nihilist movements or plans for years to come. In Mexico and the other Southern Latin republics the disaffected resort to pronunciamentos and revolutions. In the Old World the case is different. Society is agitated as it has never been since the fall of Napo leon 1., and the people are not only tired of their monarchs, but thousands of red handed fanatics are clamoring for their blood. It is probable that more assas sinations and more crimes will startle the world before the revolutionary socie ties of Europe will apprehend what true Democracy is, and will learn ho c to ap ply its principles. Mr. J. Stahl Patterson, in the Popmlar Science Monthly for September, reports that the white population of the United States in 1790, when the first census was taken, was 3,172,006; in 18000, 4,300,- 446; in 1810, 5,862.073; in 1820, 7,863,- 162; in 1830, 10,537,378; in 1840, 14,- 195.805; in 1850, 19,553,068; in 1860, 26,922,537; in 1870, 33,589,377; in 1880, 43,402,408. The increase in the whites in the first decade was 35.8 per cent; second 36.0; third 34.1; fourth 84.0; fifth 34.7; sixth, 37.7; seventh 37.7; eighth 24.8; ninth 29 2. The colored popula tion in 1790 was 757,208; in 1800 1.003,- 037; in 1810, 1,377.808; in 1820,1,771, 656; in 1830, 2,328,642; in 1840, 2,873,648; in 1850, 3,638,808; in 1860, 4,441,830; in 1870, 4,880,009; in 1880, 6,577,497. The colored general per cent in the first decade was 35.3; second, 37.5; third 28 6; fourth 31.5; fifth 23 4; sixth, 26 6; seventh 22.1; eighth 29.9; ninth 34.8. The public debt was reduced $10,000,- 000 during July, the first month of the current fiscal year. This amount was double the reduction in July, 1880. The debt attained its maximum in 1865. On the Ist of October, 1865, the debt of the nation, less the funds in the Treasury, was #2,741,390,922 11. On July 1, 1861, the amount of the debt, less cash in the Treasury, was #2,292,030,834. On July 1, 1881, the current fiscal year be gan with a net debt charge of #1,840,- 598,811, or #451,432,023 less than it was ten years ago. As we have seen, July shows a still further reduction of #lO,- 000,000. The exact figures of the reduc tion for the twelve months ending June 31, 1881, are #101,573.483. Although the New York Times and Tribune declared that Mr. Sessions was not a fit man to represent any Republi can constituency, (imagine, if you can, a man so corrupt that he is not fit to represent New York Republicans,) that worthy was on Saturday elected a dele gate to the New York Republican State Convention from the first Chautauqua district A confessed lobbyist, a man under heavy bonds for alleged bribery, and almost universally believed to be guilty, he yet is elected to represent the Republicans of his district at an import ant convention. One thing is wanting to make the picture complete. Mr. Sessions should address the convention on the necessity of reform within the party. It is related of "Professor” Gwinn, the late master of ceremonies at the United States Hotel, Saratoga, that once last summer, a man noticing another smok ing in a forbidden place, the ladies’ ve randa, called his attention to this trans gression of the rules. Gwinn approach ed the smoker in his blandest manner, and in a moment the cigar was gone, and evidently no offense was felt at the rebuke. “What did you say to him Gwinn?” was asked. “I told him,” he replied, "that the snowy columns were unused to rise and break on this piazza.” The Mississippi Greenbackers receive the cordial and enthusiastic indorsement of the Republican organs. Repudiation and greenbackery would appear to be the cherished "principles” of the Re publican party. The "mission” of the organization seems to be to attempt the propagation of repudiation and green backery. A party of "high principles,” is it not? The State of Massachusetts allows no colored man to vote unless he can read and write and pay taxes, yet the Re publican organs of that State as well as Dawes and Hoar, are howling about what they call the enormous crime of a capitation tax as a prerequisite to voting in Virginia. Import* and Exporta for 1881 and 1880. The summary of exports and imports of the United States for the fiscal year ended with June 30, 1881, compared with the corresponding twelve months of 1880, present* some very important and interesting facts.

It is worthy of remark that there has been during the year just past a falling off in our imports of coffee, hides, indigo, rags, silk, linen goods, pig iron, bar iron, jute, leather, opium, flaxseed, molasses, tin, tobacco, a very large falling off of manufactured wool, hair, etc., with an increase of cloths and cassimeres. There is also a large falling off in the imports of dress goods, ho siery, etc. The increase has been in India rubber, gutta percha, tea, sugar (from the Hawaiian Islands), books, bar ley, rice, chemicals, bituminous coal, earthenware, fancy goods, manufactures of glass, railroad bars or rails, firearms, steel ingots, precious stones, brown sugar, watches, wines, boards, etc. The amount of the decrease of our imports in the year past, ended June 30, was #25,290,118.

Butter has decreased from $6,690,- 687 to $6,256,024; preserved meats from #7,877,200 to $5,971,909. Cotton increases from a value of $211,535,905 in 1880 to $247,695,746 in 1881; wheat flour from £15,333,197 to $45,047,257. But wheat exhibits decrease from $190,546,305 to $167,698,485; corn from #53,298,247 to #50,702,673, aud other grains similarly. The value of the export of fruits pre served in cans is £5,444,769, and shows an increase over last year of $40,031. The value of the gold and silver coin and bullion exported during the last fis cal year was $19,406,847; during the year preceding, $17,142,919. The ex cess of imports of these precious metals over exports was in the year ended June 30, 1880, $75,891,391; in the year 1881, $913,168,050. The total excess of mer chandise, coin and bullion exported over that imported was in the former year #91,792,521; in the latter it reached the large sum of $168,534,068. This would be the “balance of trade in our favor,” and according to some political econo mists would measure our profits in transactions with foreign countries dur ing the years mentioned. The New Orleans Cotton Labor Trou bles. As heretofore stated, there has been a serious conflict threatened between the capital and labor engaged in handling cotton in New Orleans. Against the solid organization of the labor element, embracing every class employed in hand ling the staple from the time of its re ception until it is stored in the ship’s hold, we now learn from the Pitayujue "that there has been recently opposed an organization representing the factors, buyers aDd shippers. The Cotton Men’s Executive Council is composed of dele gates from associations of the Screwmen, Longshoremen, Draymen, Cotton Press Yard Men, Weighers, Reweighers and Classers. These associations are said to number some 13.000 men. The Execu tive Council is given a limited veto power upon the action of the various associations. While it can not make a tariff for any of the associa tions, it can prevent a change in any tar iff already adopted and filed with it. The various organizations had perfected their tariffs, and they had been acted upon and finally accepted by the Executive Council, and duly promulgated to be binding during the next cotton season, or for the twelve months beginning Sep tember 1. 1881, and ending August 31, 1882. The propositions looking to a compromise, which have come from the factors and shippers, were received after the tariff had been made up, and the as sociations now decline to make aDy changes. The conservative members do not desire further agitation and reopen ing of the issues, for fear that there may be an effort made to put the prices of labor up to exorbitant figures. They claim that the charges now are not un fair, and, if accepted, will be adhered to, and all parties will have a stable basis for operations during the coining year.” Governor Cornell, of New York, ha* appointed on the committee to receive the French visitors to the Yorktown Centennial a descendant of a Tory who rented his sugar house to the British, who crowded two thousand American prisoners therein and subjected them to all kinds of sufferings. The sugar house owner used to visit the building and shake his stick at the Americans, ex pressing the wish that "the whole lot of d—d rebels” might be killed. The man couldn’t help his father being a Tory, but it is a singular freak of the Governor to select the descendant of a Tory to welcome the French. The Mackerel Catch The main feature of the Boston fish market,” says Saturday’s Journal, “is the large falling off in the receipts of mackerel from the fleet, the quantity landed here and at out posts during the week being only 5,902 barrels against 26,809 barrels the previ ous week. This has caused a decidedly firmer feeling, and fair lots have been sold at 25 to 50 centß advance, though it is rather soon to counton any permanent decrease in the receipts, as the weather is quite favorable for fishing operations and mackerel are still seen in large quan tities along the coast ThrMtaaed Indian Outbreak. A Milwaukee, Wis., dispatch to the Herald says: "There is intense excite ment in the northern part of this State, owing to a threatened Indian outbreak. The agent at Green Bay began on Satur day to telegraph to Washington for troops, claiming that a number of In dians from Kansas and Dakota had been on a visit to the Menominee reservation, with the view to bringing about a war on the whites. These visiting Indians belong to the Sioux and Pottawatomies, and represent the new order known as the ‘Dreamers.’ The Catholic Indians resist their influences, but the Protest ants and unconverted have aimed snd joined in a series of outlandish orgies, seemingly bent on mischief. The au thorities at Washington telegraphed the agent to swear in special constables. To this he replied that there were 1,000 In dians in arms and that he could not get in that section of the State 100 ablebodied whites to repel them. Secrelary Kirk wood then sent a messenger to Governor Smith requesting him to protect the settlers and stating that a company of United States soldiers would be dis patched at once. If no outbreak occurs within forty-eight hours there will be soldiers enough there to quell any up rising. When Agent Stephens, with eighty Indian police on Friday last, at tempted to stop a pow wow led by ‘Dreamers,’ the whole party raised the war whoop and forcibly released four, whom the agent had arrested. The In dians have sent a dispatch to Washing ton claiming that they will be peaceable if not molested. ‘This outbreak has considerable signif icance when considered in connection with the uprising of the Sioux at Stand ing Rock Agency, Dakota, the latter nation being represented by ‘Dre imers’ now in position. Dispatches to-night from Clintonvilie say the excitement over the Indians has not abated. The "Dreamers” are keeping up a dance and inciting the reservation to deeds of vio lence. A correspondent of the Daily Republican telegraphs that the Me nominee Indians, who are peacea bly disposed, have been driven away from Keshena. Agent Stephens and his daughter are prisonors at the agency and are afraid to venture out at all. Reliable officers have been sent to preserve peace at the camp of the ‘Dreamers’ in this State. Militia and regulars have been ordered to the scene of the trouble, and some will reach there to morrow. Old Shabedock, a Pottawa tomie chief, who was with General Win field Scott in the war which occurred thirty five years ago, has been to see the ‘Dreamers’ and pronounces them bad Indians.” Some weeks ago the Cincinnati Ga telle stated that Dentist Bliss, son of the chief surgeon to the President, was using the information which he was al lowed to get from the President’s sick room to speculate in Wall street. Now a Washington correspondent of the Chicago Inter-Ocean, without mention ing any names, asserts that before some members of the President’s family were aware of the intention to summon Dr. Agnew for a consultation as to the re moval of the patient someone in New York had the information. He also states that some days ago a man appear ed in Washington who said that he had come to make arrangements for a direct wire from the White House to a broker’s office in Wall street, but he found that he had been forestalled. He offered to prove by files at the Wes tern Union Telegraph office that it was a fact that dispatches weDt directly from the White House to Corbin’s place in New York, a banker and broker’s office. The same correspondent gives a cipher code which is said to be that used by the conspirators; also, its translation. If there has been such indecent and scan dalous trafficking in the news of the President’s condition, those in charge of his case owe it to themselves and to the public to explain how and by whom it was done. £t. 3tarotJs (Dil.

By “Broken Suits” we mean that we have Coats, but not the Pants or vests to match, or Pants and no Coats to match, and so on. To those who do not care for full suits, but can use either a Pants, Coat or Vest, can secure first-class goods at half their value, for we have determined to close out these odds at any price. In fact, they are not worth to us more than half of their cost in this broken condition. As these goods comprise some very desirable goods, and as we are willing to sac rifice them we anticipate a big rush, hence we would advise you to call as soon as possible.

STlie ffilonrittfl Jett’S. Tlm ol loafac the W** l N'TrtJvrn £, from along the line of the Macon and Brunswick Railroad, and from the naval store section of the Central Railroad, which state that in some sections one-fourth of the trees are down, and in other localities nearly one-half are prostrated. The result Is that the product of both rosin and spirits will be very materially lessened this season. Tbe receipts during the past few days by the railroads have been very light, a practical evidence of the extent of the damage, and tbe indications now are that the crop of naval 6tores will fall short of previous pre dictions, and most probably higher prices wUI be reached this season. discovery of anothke victim. The tug Constitution, while proceeding down the river yesterday, and when about four miles from tbe city, near Elba Island, at about a quarter to twelve o’clock, passed the body of a white woman in the water nearly nude. The body was about one hundred yards off and was not identified. As the tug was under charter, the Captain did not have sufficient time to stop and se cure it, but probably It will be recovered to day. THE RECOVERED DEAD. Yesterday morning Coroner Sheftall held inquests upon the bodies of two unknown colored women and one colored man, found on Argyle Island; also on the bodies or Joe Kenney and Wm Blake, colored, found on the bank of the Savannah river some dis tance above the city. Verdict in all the cases of death by drowning. AN INSTANCE OF THE FORCE OF THE WIND. Daring the storm, as has been previously stated,the wood work and upper works of the steamer Carrie, which is on Jones’railway being rebuilt, blew off Tbe lumber was scattered from Lamar’s flour mill to the Thunderbolt road, and with it the boxes containing tbe sashes, doors and fancy work. The latter were found in the boxes and were uninjured, but the other material was badly damaged, though tt can be used again. As the bridges leading to the shipyard are carried away, the lumber had to be hauled to the wharf at the foot of Drayton street, where it Is now being loaded aboard a flat for transportation to the place where the steamer lies. THE LOSS OF LIFE. A careful estimate places the loss of life among the colored people on the plantations at one hundred. SAPRLO STATION ALL RIGHT. Ever aince the extent and devastation of the great storm have been known there has been considerable apprehension and uneasi nes concerning Dr. W. H. Elliott, in charge of tbs quarantine station at Sapelo, and his force. There were several unpleasant ru mors In regard to it, but we are pleased to say they are incorrect, as yesteraay Mr. Ralph E'llott received a postal card from Dr. Elliott, stating that the storm bad been quite severe, but that there were no lives lost, and the damage to tbe station was confined principally to the ru'ntng of the books and papers bv the rair, which beat in. This will be gratifying ne vs to the numerous friends of Dr. Elliott in this city, who have been rendered exceedingly anxious by the delay in hearing from the station. THE LOSS OF LIFE NOT EXAGGERATED. We learn from a gentleman who is living on Back river, and who was in the city yes terday, that the estimate of the number of persons drowned In that section during the gale is not exaggerated in the least. He states that there are parties who are secur ing bodies floating in the lagoons and river in numbers, and that many have been washed up on the rice fields. As there are doubtless more who have been drowned and carried out to tea, it is impossible to form any definite estimate of the loss. Many of them will never be heard of again, and the list of missing negroes Increases. OK THE OGEECHEE. The rice plantations have suffered great ly, and we learn from an Intelligent planter, who is himself a heavy sufferer, and who has Just returned from a tour of inspection, that the damage will probably exceed SIOO,OOO. On every plantation barns and outbuildings have been demolished, and hundreds of acres of rice have been ruined by the salt water. IN EFFINGHAM. We learn from Mr. Stephen F. Keller, of Effingham, who came to the city yesterday, that the storm did considerable damage throughout the county. So far as could be ascertained no lives were lost. The dam age sustained Is principally from fine trees being blown down and small outbuildings leveled. At No. 2X, on the Central Railroad, the devastation among the turpentine farms is said to be immense, and Mr. Keller informs us that It Is feared they will have to be abandoned, as they are regarded as ruined. THE COUNTY ROADS are reported to be In a terrible condition, and in &ome places Impassable. Parties ar riving here by wagons and carts yesterday state that the Louisville road, from the canal to the eight-mile bend, Is literally strewn with trees and greatly obstructed, rendering traveling difficult and dangerous. The road is also badly washed and commu nication Is seriously Interrupted. We arc asked to urge upon the Road Commission ers of the county to have the damages re paired as soon as possible and the roads opened to travel, otherwise the country pen pie will be unable to bring their produce to market. THE FAIR GROUNDS. The damage to the Fair Grounds of the Agricultural and Mechanical Association by the late storm is much more extensive than was at first reported. Nearly all the exten sive fencing Is levelled to the ground and the ticket office on the side of the railroad track aud the substantial building at the Augusta road entrance. The grand stand is moved on one end. DOWN THE RIVER REPLACING THE BUOYS. The revenue launch Discover, Captain Barrows, went down the river yesterday morning to look after the various matters connected with the service,and returned last evening. Bhe carried provisions to the sev eral lighthouse keepers and the Ordnance Bergeant at Fort Pulaski. The Discover also took down Dr. Huger, tbe quarantine officer, who will be located on Tybee until his house is rebuilt. Tbe doctor secured suitable quarters and will re turn in a few days. The revenue steamer McCullough, from the Charleston station, came Into Tybee yes terday, and the commanding officer went aboard the Boutwell, and after consultation the McCullough left on a cratse over the Boutwell’* district. The buoy tender steamer arrived in port yesterday and is busily engaged In placing the buoys which were carried out of their places during the late storm. Captain J. H. Craig and Mr. F. M. Jones went down on the Discover for the purpose of getting the pilot boat Neca out of the marsh. The work was found to be prac ticable, and will be begun at once. EXPRESSIONS OF SYMPATHY. Monticillo, Fla August 31.—Edilor Morning Aries We deeply regret to hear of the fearful storm that has done your beautiful city ao much injury, and sympa thize with those who have lost their dear ones, some of whom are well known to this community. We have not received your Monday’s paper, but one or two cople* were obtained on tbe train and got to town last night, so we are not entirely wltbont news from your city. Yours truly, Thomas Simmons. STORM NOTES. Winn, the diver, yesterday attached ropes to the little steamer Tybee, which was sunk in the river, for the purpose of having her raised. A little steamer, the name of which is not known, sunk nearly opposite the coal wharf during the recent gale. Captain Torrent and Captain Frank R. Bailey went down to Wilmington Island yesterday for the purpose of endeavoring to get the Canoochee off. The yacht Mary Isabel has been missing since the storm, and her whereabouts are unknown. An unknown schooner Is ashore on Wil mington Island. The yacht White Wing has been found at a plantation near the city. The schooner Island City went up on Wil link’s ways yesterday for the purpose of having damages sustained repaired. The schooner D..V. Streaker, Capt. Camp, from Jacksonville for New York with a cargo of lumber, put into Tybee yesterday in distress, leaking badly. She was com pelled to throw about one ball of her deck load overboard. This vessel cleared from this port only about three weeks since for Jacksonville. ONE OF THE BRUNSWICK’S CREW RESCUED. In tbe account given by Captain Higgins, of the 111-fated bark Brunswick, which went down In the gsle forty-five miles north of Tybee, published In yesterday’s News, mention was made of the loss of four of the crew. One of these unfortunates, tt ap pears, has been rescued, as a dispatch from Beaufort, dated the 31st of August, says: “The bark Seres, Captain Sehwur, from Hamburg, bound to Charleston, put Into Bull river this mornlDg, having lost her forerigging and rudder. On the 20th Inst., at 10 o’clock in the morning, picked up a tailor boy, John Patrick McDonald, floating on a bit of raft, who had been in the water forty eight hours, havtog been knocked off the ship Brunswick, Captatu Higgins, from Pensacola to Philadelphia.” THE STORM ON TYREE. A Thrilling Story of the Hurricane on Saturday Night—A Woman’s Trust InOod and Miraculous Es cape With Her Children. Tbe following extracts from a private let ter are published In the Charleston News and Courier of yesterday. The letter was writ ten by the wife of one of our citizens* who is a native of Charleston, to her fami ly In that city. She was living In one of the new cottages on the island in Bacon’s row, with her children and servants, her husband being absent at the North. Her experience during tbe fearful storm is most graphically described as follows: It stormed all Friday night and all day Saturday, and I hoped It would cease by night. Each hour I thought must be the height of the storm. 8o I packed up every thing to be ready to move In at a moment’s notice, when alas I heard the steamer had approached Tybee and been beaten back by the fury of the waves, the wharf swept off, and thus we were cut off from all human aid. About 7 o’clock p. m. the cyclone reached us. I saw huge live oaks and pal metto trees which had stood the test of cen turies tarn up by the roots and whirled about like etraws. Our house rocked and creaked like a boat at sea. I took Frank in my arms, Nina on one side and Maude on the other, and went into a corner, the most remote from the direction of the wind. No words can describe my terror. The wind did not whistle or shriek as I have beard It, hut It was A CANNONADING. I do nof exaggerate when I say so. I looked out on the roaring waters rising fa6t upon us, and into the life-seeking tempest, and wondered which death would be easiest for my children: to be crushed by the falling house, drowned by tbe sea, or beaten down bv the winds and flying trees and houses. We fell upon our knees, and begged God to recetve us all together. I wrapped up my babes, the two servant girls picked up Nina and Frank, while I followed with Maude. We ran out Into the kitchen, which, being low, I thought might escape. We reach el it, a thing I hardly expected, rushed in, slammed the door, when, my God! what a crash. THE HOUSE WAS BLOWN DOWN, no two boards sticking together. A few moments of breathless terror, the kitchen rocking in the same admonishing manner, the window burst open, and the shriek from ODe of the servants, “Christ, the island is on fire!” and the fearful lurid gleam showed me too plainly that another element was loose upon us. Just then a voice out side, “Mrs. H ,for God’s sake, are any of you alive gave me a ray of hope. “Come to the window,” I screamed, “and take my children,” and I passed them out into strong arms. How am I ever to thank that man. Homan, the hotel keeper, saw from his window my cottage rock, and he and his two clerks ran to our rescue, but it wag down before they reached tt. They called and, upon receiving no answer, he went Into the tottering ruins, at great risk to hts life, to look for our remains, felt In the bed, and then shouted, when we heard and answer ed. He wanted us to go to his house, but the same direction Spirit which was saving us through these dangers made me firmly retuse and insist upon going to Blun’s, a house I often remarked for Its brick founda tion and chimneys, two strong points which no other house on the island possessed. So there we started. THE KITCHEN WAS BLOWN OVER as soon as we left It and we inert blown along amid burning sparks, rain and sand which blinded us and pricked like needles. The young man who had Maude mistook the way and ran Into the cottage next to Mr. Blun’s. Finding their mistake they ran out, when that cottage wss blown to the ground im mediately. We reached our destination and found there was one room in their large house which was not fl ooded, and there we joined the family and sat In mute terror. Ob, the roaring and the rushing and the crashing! The bouse tottered and threat ened. About 11 o’clock a sound reached ray ear which my prophetic soul Interpreted Instantly—a dull, steady roar under the house —the land swell! The ocean had swept away the rand hills and was flowing under the house, the foundation would be under mined and the house be swept away. 1 took my babes again and put wrappings on them and we stood in instant readiness to FLY INTO THE WOODS where I knew of a small hill protected by huge live oaks. God spared us this ordeal, for the tide turned, the wind shifted and the water receded. When the furious war subsided every half hour or so tome anxious man’s face would be thrust, in the room, “Are all saved here t” “Have any been lost etc. And how my heart nearly burst with gratitude when 1 took my darlings in my arms and felt we were ALL SAVED Of course the calm came after the storm About twelve o’clock tbe only sound boat left in the harbor of Savannah, a tug, succeeded in reaching Tybee. We got on the tug and reached Savannah, where I found the storm had raged also. Our house has tbe roof off, and everything in it flooded. It may be weeks ere we get It habitable. Thank God again, all Is well with us. A BARK IN DISTRESS SECURES A PRIZE AND REACHES PORT. Port Royal, 8. C., September I. The Swedish bark Batavia, Capt. Peterson, put into Port Royal this morning, leaking very badly, and with the loss of calls. The Ba tavia left Savannah August nineteenth for Antwerp, with a cargo of naval stores. The Captain encountered tbe hurricane twenty miles north of Frying Pan and put back. The leak began when she was about twenty miles southeast of Hunting Island light, near where she fell in with the echooner Caroline Hall, abandoned and water logged, fore and mainmast and bow sprit gone. The Batavia took her In tow and brought her in. Sunk In the River. Tbe schooner Addle Fuller, Captain Jor gensoD, filled yesterday morning about day light while lying at Jones’ Marine Railway. She filled so rapidly that the watchman bad scarcely time to secure the chronometer. The schooner now lies with her stern com pletely submerged and her bow out of water. It will be remembered that mention was made In the record of the storm that this schooner was blown on shore on the north bank of the river near Jones’ marine rail way. Tbe Addle Fuller ia 217 tons burthen, and although old had been regarded as a strong seaworthy vessel. Shu had on at th* time of sinking 24,000 feet of lumber, a por tion of her cargo, not having finished load ing. The vessel ia owned in .Thomaaton, Me., and Brighton, Mass., and her agent, Mr. Edward Stackpole, has been telegraph ed to for Instructions. Tbe value of the Addle Fuller was roughly estimated to be about SB,OOO. Lady Beautiflera.

Famous. 1-10 Congress street.—Adv, Lcgldatlv* Charter* a* Obstacles to Commerce. Editor Morning New* I observe amongst the bills introduced into the Legislature one to grant a charter to a “Romney Marsh Canal Company.” Thla charter should not be granted, or if already granted, it should at once be repealed. During the latter part of the last session of Congress 1 was in cor respondence with Senator Joseph E. Brown, who is making a strenuous effort to secure an appropriation from Congress for the purpose of making a cut through Romney marsb, and thereby facilitating steamboat travel southward from this place. If the govern ment does this work, the benefit will accrue to the passing boats without tax, which Is what this city needs. The location of the quarantine statioh at Sapelo is alto a strong guarantee of the government’s Interest in a safe, sure and speedy communication there with. The improvements in the water ways leading to New York are made by tbe government for the benefit of commerce, and those around Savannah should be made also by the government, and thus relieve our commerce of all unnecessary local re strictions and burdens. L. A. Falligant. Good Advice from a Leading Medi cal Professor. The learned doctor says: “Keep some kind of a tonic medicine always in the house, and if anyone feels unwell, make free use of it. But first be sure that It Is both harmless as well as meritorious. Put no trust In alcoholic preparations; their use will lead to Intemperance; neither be partial to any remedy that produces a severe cathar tic effect, for prostration of the nervous system and digestive organs Is sure to fol low. The mildest and best medicine ever invented for strengthening every part of the body and restoring impaired or lost or ganic functions to their normal condition, and one which is having an unparalleled and rapidly increasing sale in the Eastern States, is Brown’s Iron Bitters.

GUSTAVE KEISUNG, Proprietor, Aping the Snobs of Europe. A correspondent of the Courier-Jour nal writes: “In the current news of the day, as published in the daily journals, the writer of these lines has, on sundry oc casions, observed the rude, uncouth and factitious method of signing open let ters with the surname (family name only) of the writer, and by men, too, who occupy high positions in this govern ment. Besides, this silly and absurd custom seems to be approved and adopt ed by some of the army officers, who, perhaps, have never scented the war ea gle except at a safe distance from the field of battle and the boom of cannon. “Thatwian is a perverse and caprioious being is very true; but men in exalted stations are supposed to be persons who possess a ready fund of common sense; yet, sad to say, this is not always the case, as may hereafter appear. The op posite view of the matter seems to be aptly illustrated by the following riga marole in rhyme: 'Hitt, Acting Secretary,’ and. in rank, just one degree below ‘Blaine. Secretary’ (late from the pine woods of Maine, you know). To ‘Lowell, Minister,' at good Queen. Vic’s im perial court. Where British ‘snobs,’ in lordly guise, do oftentiTies resort.” Suicide by Dynamite.— Dynamite is too destructive an agent to be sold as freely as sealirgwax, yet it seems to be procurable without any difficulty in all parts of the country. Hardly a month passes in which cases are not reported of poachers using dynamite as a means of catching fish, and the dynamite grenade used to kill trout in a pool might just as easily be employed to destroy human life. So familiar are some people with the explosive that it is even being used as a means of suicide. A Yorkshire cor respondent sent to the Brituh Medical Journal last week an account of an ex traordinary case, in which a drunken well-sinker put an end to himself by exploding a dynamite cartridge jn his mouth. Strangely enough, although his tongue, teeth, palate and marillary bones were blown to pieces, the skin of the cheeks and lips remained intact, and except for extravasation of blood about the eyes, there was little to show exter nally the cause of his death. Pall Mall Gazette. of Aspect State Lunatic Asylum, 1 Near Milledgevillk. Ga., August 19, 1881. f The Board of Trustees were formally In formed of the melancholy death of Col. Ran dolph L. Mott, a member of this Eoard since July, 1873, he having been killed by being run over by a railway train in Atlanta, Ga., while in that city discharging his duty as a Trustee of this Institution, on July 19th, just one month since, and who, had his life been spared, would have attained the great age of 82 years, on this day, August 19th. 1881. Colonel Mott was born in Fauquier county. Virginia, August 19th, 1799. where he resided until about the year 1817. when he removed to Georgia, and settled and lived in Augusta, Ga., for some years. About 1820 he removed to Milledgeville. remaining there several years, and shortly after the settlement of Macon he changed his residence to that place, and con tinued one of its most active and energetic citi zens until the year 1836, when he removed to Columbus, Ga., in which city he continued to reside until his death. Few more remarkable men, in many respects, have lived in the State -a strong man. both in body and mind, with only such education as could be obtained at the country schools of that day. Full of energy and zeal, he entered upon life, advancing step by step, from the smallest business in which he started, until, by the time he had reached middle life, he hid acquired a fortune, and was connected with many of the large enterprises of the State, and wherever engaged, always commanded re spect from those associated with him, in conse quence of his fine sense, his good judgment, and the zeal and energy with which he worked out his convictions. Although not a politician, in the proper sens# of the term, he associated much with the most prominent men of his day, and rep resented, at different times, both the counties of Bibb and Muscogee in the Legislature of the State; was for some time Mayor of the city of Columbus, and always an active sup porter of his party friends in the many politi cal contests, so long as he took an active part in the general affairs of life. At the time of his death he was President of the Columbus Gas Company, Vice Prudent of the Mobile and Girard Railroad, and member of the Board of Trustees of this institution, to which last office he was appointed by Governor James M. Smith, in July, 1878, and was continued in office by Governors Smith and Colquitt until his death. Surely, if any man was ever faithful to a trust confided to him. Col. Mott was faithful and true to that devolved upon him. Asa Trustee of this Asylum, having through his long life been engaged in many various em ployments, he brought to a discharge of bis duties a ripe and most valuable experience and intelligence, which could be found united in few, if in any other one man in the State. His zeal, energy and constant application to his duty as Trustee, with all his strong native fac ulties acute and unimpaired by age, were almost unbounded, as, having retired from life in a great degree, he gave a large part of his time to advancing the interests of this Institu tion, paving it frequent visits, and in all ways in his power aiding the Superintendent, and other officers, by his advice and suggestions in their weighty labor and responsibility of pro viding, caring for, and administering to the large number-nearly one thousand—of help less and diseased patients committed to their charge. Resolved, therefore, That in the death of Col. Randolph L. Mott the State has lost one of her oldest, most useful and respected citi zens, and this Institution a Trustee and friend, who, for the eight years he was connected with it, rendered most valuable services thereto, and set an example of zeal and earnestness in its interests well north the following of all future Truster s Resolved, That this preamble and resolutions be entered upon the minutes of this Board, and copies forwarded the family of CoL Mott, and the press for publication. The Board then adjourned until to-morrow morning, all the members being present, in cluding George A. Cabiness, Esq., appointed in place of Col. li. L. Mott, deceased. L. N. WHITTLE, President.
