THE DAILY SUN Tnunn Mozmto NOVEMBER XI [iyh Advertisements always found on First Pttge; Looat mut Business NUices on Fourth Page. THE CAPITOL. Both brunches o{ tho General,Assembly mapped out large amounts of business yesterday, Perfect avalanches of bills vrero poured in, a few of which were of general, but of no striking political in terest Members ovidently have mode up their minds in regard to the necessi ties of their constituents, and are pro ceeding to attend to their wants without delay. The Senate inaugurated its day's work by proceeding with the discussion of the message of aoting’Governor Conley, veto ing the joint resolution rescinding a cer tain loose and ill-advised section of the appropriation act of the last Legislature. The point upon which this discussion hinges is whether or not tho Legislature, by a resolution, can repeal an act. The House answered the question affir matively on Saturday, and passed the resolution over the veto. The Senators are still in doubtsbout it—some of them. Senator Candler among the number- holding such action to be illegal; while others, including Senator Hinton, claim that it is not unconstitutional and is war ranted by precedent. The matter now rests in the hands of the Judiciary Com mittee. Senator Candler’s resolution, relativo to warrants drawn in payment for printing, is a good one, and when concurred in by the House will enable Treasurer Angier to place a further check upon the outgo of public money. The resolution which it.is proposed to rescind, enlarges the printing fund indefinitely, and permit the Executive to draw upon funds, other than that specially appropriated for printing, in payment for his “ numerous and interesting” advertising aocounts. The House failed to get up a sensation, If it had not been for the Johnson fami ly, of Spalding, its proceedings would have been absolutely dull. But the Com mittee on Privileges and Elections re ported adversely to Dan and in favor of Dave, ond a small-sized discussion cn- saed. It was not enough, however, to arouse the fires that are quietly slumber ing beneath tho waistcoats of the Solons of the House. The whole matter was de ferred for the present and made the special order for next Friday. Theu, in all probability, Dan will have to walk the plank, and will be able to shake hands with Henry, Fitzpatrick and others, who havo gone before. They can resolve themselves into a committoe of the whole and resolve to go home and bo constitu ents, if they cannot be Representatives. Muscoi SUN-STHOKES. Alexis has arrived. All right, S&~ “Hautentots" is what the deni zens of Terre Haute are called. SSP “Phenix” has arisen in Chicago, Tho papers of that city publish a daily list of improvements, under the head of Phenixing. Bullock and Kimball arc supposed to have absented themselves for the pur pose of organizing a syndicate. BQU If things go on Salt Lake will soon be no longer BA. “Bullock is fore-stalled by the State Legislature of Georgia,” (Boston PcS,) and in-stalled as premium Georgia runaway. ^ ^ BA- The Boston Post was forty years old on the 9th. It is old enough to bo far wiser than it is; but that is its misfor tune, not its fault. BA> While there is some doubt about the propriety of Bullock’s Railroad ma neuvers, there is no question of his abil ity and expedition in “making tracks.” 8®. “Tho hide of a Bullock is very thick; but the Governor’s attempt to hide his rascality is very thin ."--(Boston Post.) That's the reason ho thought it best to “hideout." Btg- chloral has been discovered to be a most excellent substitute for whisky. It makes drunk quicker and tho drunk will lost longer. It will not kill nny quicker than many of tho decoctions now used. _ HSr Two working-women of Indiana have fallen heirs to $S2,000,000- From the way in which working-women havo been mado heiresses during the past two or three years, the probability is, that all the poor women^ of the country will soon be able to live without labor. ■A. It has been said that Nero fiddled while a notable conflagration was iu pro gress in his village. Nero might be for given, but it is against reason that the Savannah A'ewt should be forgiven for such levity as the following : “The Agent of tho Associated Press at Washington—who, by-thc-by, appears to be a sparkling wag—incorporates in his reports the astounding and important intelligence that 'Governor Sam Bard, lately of tho True Georgian, will resume journalism in a few weeks.' This is a very serious matter. The people of Georgia, although cmnliod and over whelmed at Psalm's sudden departure, were just getting iu that state of body and mind where they could worry along without him, and for the Press Agent to spring this intelligence upon them in this sudden and aggravated form is too much for human nature to bear. Besides, the Agent should not have omitted to append to the report the name of Psalm's new purchasor." How the News could feel like joking under the circumstances is astonishing; for it must know that tho welfare of the country is more or less at stake in thi matter, and the item of news sent out from Washington is second only in im portance to the announcement that Fish had resigned. The News must learn to control its hmnor, and let it gush only on seemly occasions. It is a good thing to laugh, at proper times; but it doesnot look well to laugh at a funeral. The Washington correspondent of the Savannah News telegraphs tho fol lowing, on the 10th: Attorney General Akermnu is unfortu nate, in that ho has neither tl j coufideui j of his master or subordinates. Grant toleratos him because ho does not like to peremptorily dismiss him, and his opin ions are the laughing stock of the lawyers in this city. Akerman dislikes carpet baggers, and at the same time is the most violent of those who aro waging partisan warfare on the South. In discussing po litical affairs last ovouing, ho remarked that persons who had not looked deeply into the matter, could not realize the ex tent of the Ku-klux organizations in some sections of the Southern States. He says that having been associated with the peo ple of the South, and having recently traveled about that country, and having observed for himself, he is satisfied that it is impossible to govern those people with local courts, juriietc., until these Ku-klux organizations are ontirr'y broken up. The above is copied into Tub Sun for the sole pnrposo of warning tho Nines to be careful how it tsmpts tho wrath of Georgia’s representative in the Cabinet. Who knows but that he has a littlo bell, the tinklo of which migh bo the premon itory symptom of martial law in Georgia? It were well uot to “beard tho lion in his den,” lest he turn upon ns and tear us in pieces. Let us not provoke the wrath of him who loveth ns none loo well at best. Air Line Railroad. The Elbcrton Gatette, of the 80th ult., at the suggestion of many citizens, has called a meeting of tho people of Elbert county to take into consideration the practicability of constructing from that point a branch of the Air Line to tap that road at some point above there. It is expected that this enterprise will bo favorably considered by tho Air Line Railroad Company and the citizens Atlanta, who arc most zealous in promot ing the interest of this road. So far as the situation and location of the country is concerned, this project is eminently practicable. Wo aro well acquainted with tho general profile of that section. It is on the ridge lying be tween Savannah and Broad rivers. Af ter leaving Elberton three miles, there is a continuous ridge of thirty miles, unin- tersected by any stream whatever, aud in every way is well adapted for the enter prise. BIG FIRE IN CHATTANOOGA. $100,000 Worth of Property De stroyed. We have before us a copy of an extra issued Sunday morning, by tho Chatta nooga Advertiser, giving a brief account of a disastrous fire which had just occur red in that city. Tho fire broke out about 1 o'clock Sunday morning, in the the jewelry store of Fischer & Bro., and in some two or three hours, seventeen buildings were destroyed. Tho firo was, undoubtedly, tho work of an incendiary. Tho following estimate of losses is given by tho Advertiser : L. Silbcrman, watches and jewelry, $2,000; H. N. Snyder & Co., groceries, $2,000; D. Kirkpatrick & Co., liquor dealers, $8,500; Nisbett & McGlohon, boots and shoes, $5,000; Ruble & Hight, yieultural implements, $15,000; Isaac per, groceries, $800; H. Schneider & Co., dry goods, $5,000; Natsauer & Lo- weuthal, dry goods, $7,500; Hurt & Hollan,groceries, $1,000; Henry Deustch, watchmaker, $800; F. Miotkw, tailor, $G00; D. T. Clippenger, $700; Patten A Payne, $2,000. from moving; Fischer A Bro„ 2,500—over $1000 in tools; J. J. McGlohon, lawyer, $150; E. G. Eaton A Co., $400; Pierce A Wood, $700. The amount .of insurance upon the wholo loss is $32,000; and it is thought that when a full cstimato of the losses is made they will approximate $100,000. While this firo was burning somo vil lain poured oil on a pile of shingles iu anothor part of tho city and set firo to it. Luckily, it was discovered before nny damage was done. “Tho Mayor of Chattanooga has oilcred a reward of $1,000 for tho apprehension of tho incendiary. It is to be hoped that the scoundrel will bo caught aud hanged just as soon as tho law will per mit it. The LaGrange Female College. The LaGrango Reporter of tho 20th October Bays: It is with great pleasure we announce that the neat and commodious edifice of this institution is now completed. Presi dent Cox, almost unaided, so far as we know, has accomplished a good work iu our midst, ercditnblo to our town and honorable to himself. It was no small undertaking to begin and complete such a building iu such striugent times os we have had for the past few years; but President Cox, with a will und determi nation that always win success, com menced tho work, and it now stauda an ornament to our community. Located in a beautiful grove, with handsome grounds, and almost centrally in the town, and yet suffi neatly retired for such au institution, it is a very attractive building. It is a large two-stcry build ing, with a front of fifty-four feet and length of seventy-two. The concert hall, on the second floor, is a beautiful room, admirably ventilated, in every particular, and well adapted to public exhibitions. There are thirteen other commodious rooms for recitations, music, painting, etc. The entire building is remarkably well-suited for the various exercises of a female college. Inside and outside is handsomely finished; and, 'takiug into consideration many embarrassing circum stances, the work has been put through with great rapidity. The opening of the fall term has been better than at any previous term since the war; and we are gratified to learn that already a great many applications from parents and guardians, st a distance, aro being received for board and tuition for their daughters and wards for the next year. n John Kobiuson's big African lion died of pneumonia in Savannah, and bis fine Bengal tiger was ill of the samo disease.
