The lutest sensation in Cleveland,

Senator Davis, of West Virginia,

Such discrepancies certainly appear
and no one lias ever ventured upon
the task of explaining them. Sena

One of the largest gold balances in
the world was recently made for the
United States mint by Henry Treom-
ner, of Philadelphia. The beam
measures five feet six inches in
length, and is mounted on agate
bearings, with a capacity of 10,000
troy ounces (about (too pounds) in each
pan, and is sensible to a single grain
when loaded. Over twenty million
dollars in gold puss over this balance
yearly. The workmanship is of tin
very finest.
Mr. Wm. E. Chandler docs not
think so much of the President as he
did last year, when he went down to
Florida with $150,OfX) to secure the
lecfonil vote of that State for him.
He now thinks that “the sooner
Hayes goes over to the Democracy
the better, as he is only an embarmss-
ment to the Republican party.”
William thinks the "party” will be
under a cloud for a little while, hut
by means of hard work will again
become the party of principles—pro
tection to tlie black man and Ameri-
an industry.” The poor fellow is
vldently cerebrally decayed. He is
very severe on the great John Sher
man :
1 tell you, every man who went
down to Louisiana to secure the vote
of that State for Hayes and then sanc
tioned the abandonment of Packard
is politically damned. Joint Sherman
is one of them. Let nte give you a
bit of inside history. A’nout ten days
before the count wus finished in
Washington some of us got alurmed
nt the statements of Matthews, that
Louisiana was to be given up, and we
letermined that Hayes should be
communicated with. We requested
Sherman to write a letter expressing
our apprehension and asking for an
assurance of the groundlessness of
Matthews’ assersions. Instead of
writing tlie letter Mr. Hhennan set
off for Cplumlms. When he returned
we found he had changed sides, and
laid brought with him a confirmation
of <air worst fears.”

■elation to the Powers Over a Prls-
oaer.
Hon. Alexander Stephens has
been subjected to another interview
in Washington recently on the sub
jects of the views of the Soutli con
cerning the Presidential candidate for
1880, and the late elections. Regarding
the first, he is reported to have said
tliut the South, because it holds one
hundred and thirty-eight electoral
votes, will not insist on a Southern
nomination. He thinks that this
section will only be governed in tlie
matter by the question whether or
not tlie candidate is possessed of tho
necessary qualifications—ability, hon
esty, patriotism, and devotion to the
great principles upon which tlie en
tire system of America free institu
tions rests. If lie possesses these, tlie
Soutli will support him, lie lie from
North, East or West.
On tlie subject of the lute elections,
lie thinks tlial in every case the result
was n victory for flic pence measures
of Hayes. "Where the victory was
for the Democrats, tho majority thor
oughly endorsed Mr. Hayes' pacifica
tion policy, while in Massachusetts,
where the victory is for the Republi
cans, the same is also proved." This,
lie thinks, augurs well for tlie future,
inasmuch as it shows that, notwith
standing flic efforts of tlie ultra
hloody-shirt Radicals, the great mass
of tlie American people are determiu
cd on an era of good feeling.

land, under tlie tuition of George
Cabel. She is only 17 years of age.
She receives a salary of 200,(MM) fmn

the commencement of her career is i
fine start-off.

Hon. Charles Francis Adam
has written a letter, addressed to
Lieutenant Governor Dorslieimer, of
New York, in which he reiterates liis
assertion tliut President Hayes was
elected by fraud, and declares that “it
does no credit to the Republican party
that it has not instituted an honest
investigation of tlie facts of tlie case
last year.” Mr. Adams says it seems
to him that it is “tlie duty of all hon
est men to uphold the great maxim of
law, as well as of morals, Unit fraud
spoils everything tliut it touches."
The Conkling men in the Henate
are constantly asserting, or causing it
lo lie asserted, tliut they have somo
dreadful evidence against Gen. Har
lan which will utterly forbid ids
confirmation as Associate Justice of
tlie Supreme Court. They mean
simply to delay tho confirmation; that
is all. No evidence of Harlan’s
treachery to ills party lias yet ap
peared. The New York Jferald’s
Washington correspondent says:
“It is remarked here that, while
there is no doubt about Gen. Harlan’s
confirmation whenever his name is
reported to tlie Senate, it being
thought certain (lint almost all tlie
Republicans Senators as well as tlie
Democrats will vote for him, tlie long
and unusual delay of tlie committee
over his case lias an injurious effect
upon public opinion. People want to
know what there is against Harlan.
Members of the committee reply
nothing at all so far as they know,
hut tlie delay and mystery about It
lling doubt upon tlie character of a
man nominated tooneofthe most ex
alted positions in tlie nation ami set
up a pretense at least tliut lie is not
ntlrely lit to sit on tlie Supreme
bench.
The Philadelphia Bulletin recalls
the fact that when President John
son appointed Mr. Evarts Attorney
General, Senator Cameron rose in ex-
executive session and pointed out
Hint it was not becoming in the
President lo pay ills private counsel
with a Cabinet appointment, The
Insinuation is (hat Mr. Evarts re
membered tills wlien Mr. Cameron
was named by die Pennsylvania dele-
gallon for tho English mission. The
Unlit tin slides neither of die Cam
erons opposed, or had had any
thofight of opposing, die appointment
of Mr. Welsh. One of die most oor-
liiil letters received by Mr. Welsh
wus from ex-Senator Cameron.
None of tlie models exhibited on

greater accumulation of funds, and a
model of sueli excellence as to enlist

Atlanta Constitution.]
Judge Hall’seliarge to die jury em
braced tlie following:
"Tlie right of tlie people to lie se
cure in their persons against unrea
sonable seizures is guaranteed by both
die State and United States Constitu
tions, and is not to be Invaded by any
official or other person.
“An officer may arrest without
warrant when an offense is commit
ted in his presence, or when the of
fender is about to escape, or when for
other cause there is likely to be u fail
ure of justice tortile want of an officer
to issue a warrant.
When an arrest is made without a
warrant the officer making the arrest
is required, without delay, to convey
tlie jierson arrested before an officer
authorized to issue a warrant, tliut a
warrant may issue as ills authority
tor continuing to hold the person ar
rested, but no such imprisonment or
arrest shall he legal beyond a reasona
ble time.
“In tlie emergencies I have stated
an officer may arrest without a war
rant, but should proceed, after mak
ing die arrest, in the manner I have
stated, for if hedoesjnot this seizure of
a iiersou would lie unreasonable, and,
therefore, illegal.
“These rules laid down tor the gov
ernment of un officer of t\je State or
county in making an arrest, apply al
so to municipal officers, and no ordi
nance of u municipality can cotro-
Vene them.
“If the defendant was Marshal of
die town of Hampton, and Harris
committed an offense against tlie or
dinances, or an ordinance, of Hamp
ton in ids presence, tlie defendant
had tlie right to arrest him, but after
making the arrest, and without de
lay, he should have carried him be
fore ah officer of tho town, authorized
to issue a wurrant, and obtained a
warrant as his authority for contin
uing tlie imprisonment, and if lie
failed to get a warrant, if lie had rea
sonable time ill which to do so, but
continued the imprisonment after
such reasonable time without war
rant, and relied on the ordinance
of die town; giving him authority to
arrest and imprison Indefinitely, with
out u wurrant tor the arrest, then
such an urrest wus the unreasonable
seizure of the person of Harris, and
was illegal. If the arrest was illegal,
then, if the defendant in enforcing
tlie imprisonment put ids hand on
Harris, lie would lie guilty of an ‘as
sault. and battery.’"
THESE ARE SETTLED PRINCIPLES
of the law in tills Htate, and the
charge of Judge Hall is supported by
tlie Constitution of die United Htates
and the Constitution of the State of
Georgia, paragraph 10 of article 1.
Code of Georgia, sections 4728 and
472. Brunswick vs. Brunswick, 51
Georgia reports, bottom of page 040,
and top of page (141, Johnson vs.
Amerieus, 40 Georgia reports, page
80.
No attempt was made to excuse tho
Marshal by showing that lie had
made any attempt to secure a warrant
within reasonable dine or at. till.
The decision upon tlie law as nliove
recited is plain and correct. It in no
wise hampers the action of tlie peace
officers, but requires of them prompt
compliance with die law, in the in
terest of society and the individual.

My Family Medicine;

Providence, April 7, ^870.
Mu. II. E. Stevens: .
Dear Mr—When 1 was about eight years of
age a humor broke out upon me, which my
mother tried to cure by-giving ine herb-tea*
and all other such remedies as she knew oil
but It continued to grow worse, until dually
she consulted u physician, and he said I had
the Halt Hheuin, and doctored me for that
complaint. He relieved me some, but said
’ Id not be permanently cured, as the
.... ..se originated in the blood. I remained
„ great sufferer for several years, until I
heurd of and consulted a physician who said
I had the Scrofulous Humor, and If I would
allow him to doctor me he could cure me. I
did so, and lie commenced healing up ray
sores, and succeeded In effecting an exter
nal cure; but in a short time tlie disease ap
peared again in a worse form than ever, as
Cancerous Humor upon my lungs, throat
and head. I suffered the most pain,
and there seemed to be no remedy, ana my
friends thought I must soon die. when my
attent ion was called, while reading a news
paper, to a Vegetine testimonial of Mrs.
Waterhouse. No. 1KM Athens Street, South
Boston, and formerly residing In South
Boston, and being personally acquainted
with her, and knowing her former feeble
hcultli, I concluded I would try the Vegk-
tink. After I had taken a few bottles it
seemed to force the sores out of my system.
had running sores in my ears, which for a
nine were very painful, but I continued to
take tlie Vegetine until I had taken about
twenty-five bottles, my health improving
all tlie time from tlie commencement of the
first bottle, and the sores to heal. I com
menced taking the Vegetine in 1872, and
continued its constant use for six months.
At the present time my health Is better than
it ever bus been since I was a child. The
Vegetine is what helped me; and I most
cordially recommend It to all sufferers, es
pecially my friends. I had been a sufferer
lor over thirty years, and until I used the
■’egetink I found no remedy. Now I use it
my family medicine, and wish no other.
Mrs. B. C. COOPER,
No. 1 Joy Street, Providence, R. I.
Vegetine has never failed to effect u cure,
giving tone and strength to the system de
bilitated by disease.
VEGETINE.
Tlie range of disorders which yield to the
..iliuenceofthls medicine, and the number
of defined diseases which it never fulls to
cure, arc greater than any other single med
icine 1ms hitherto been even recommended
for by any other than the proprietors of
some quack nostrum. These diseases are
Scrofula and all Eruptive Diseases and Tu
mors, Rheumatism, Gout, Neuralgia, and
Spinal Complaints and all inflammatory
symptoms, Ulcers, all Syphilitic diseases,
Kidney and Bladder diseases, Dropsy, the
whole train of painful disorders which so
generally afflict tlie American women, and
which carry annually thousands of them to
premature graves, Dyspepsia—that univer
sal curse of American manhood,—Heart
burn, Piles, Constipation, Nervousness, in
ability to sleep, and impure blood.
Tins is a formidable list of human ail
ments for any single medicine to successfully
attack; and it is not probable that any one
article before tlie public has power to cure
the quarter of them except Vegetine. It
lays t lie axe at the root of the tree of disease
by first, eliminating every impurity from
the blood, promoting the secretions, open
ing the pores—the great escape valves of tho
system.—invigorating the fiver to Its full
and natural action, cleansing the stomach,
and strengthening digestion. This much
accomplished, the speedy and the perma
nent euro of not only the diseases we have
enumerated, but likewise the whole train of
chronic and constitutional disorders, is cer
tain to follow. This is precisely what Veg-
etine does; and It does ft so qufckly and so
easily, that It is an accomplished fact almost
before the patientris aware of it himself.

Secretary of the Treasury, the Com
missioner of Internal Revenue lias
fuiniched a complete history of At

whieli allows that Atkins, notwith
standing Congress relieved him of over

stands indebted to the Government in
a considerable amount. Tlie Secreta

immediately for tlie recovery of the
balance due from Atkins to the Gov
ernment. in an interview with As
sistant Secretary McCormick this
evening, Atkins slated that if tlie
President or Secretary wished his
resignation he would tender it at once,
hut if this was simply an effort to get
him out to appoint some one else now

in defense of any charges. The Sec
retary assured him he would lie fairly

1. Though recitals of facts in the
grounds of the motion for a new trial
he not sufficiently certified as true in
the bill of exceptions, yet if the record
shows by the Judge’s endorsement on
tlie motion that they are "approved”
by him. such approval is a sufficient
Verification.
2. Where tlie question is in re
spect to the fault of tlie husband of
plaintiff, for whose homicide she
sued, or Hint of the engineer, warn
ings of tlie engineer to the conductor,
who was the deceased husband, in re
gard to Ids imprudence in transac
tions similar to that which resulted
in Ills death are adinissable in evi
dence.
8. The presumption of law that the
plaintiff’s iidsbaud, being an em
ploye of the road, is without fault ,
arises only when he is disconnected
with duties about the particular busi
ness Which resulted In his hurt; if he
himself were engaged in tlie very act
which resulted in his death, no such
presumption will arise, but tlie onus
is iq>on the plaintiff to show cither
that her luishuutl was without fault,
or that the company’s other em
ployes were at faiilt, before tlie onus
is shifted on tlie company to defend.
4. Wlii'ii the ordinary duties of a
conductor do not include the duty to
couple and uncouple cars, according
to the evidence, lie is outside of duty
and at fault, unless there be a press
ing emergency upgn him to do that
work ; and the court should present
this proposition distinctly to the jury.
5. If tl le conductor believes in gqod
faith, that such an emergency is upon
him and the jury so find, and that lie
had good reasons so to believe, then
the mere act of coupling and uncoup-
ling, or attempting it, will not be out
side of his duty and make hint to
blame ; hut even if it should appear,
(hat tlie emergency wns upon him,
lie will he at fault,'if he acted reck
lessly or imprudently ; and whether
he does so or not is for the jury to
say, under all facts of the transaction.

die weight of evidence, we are less
reluctant to require a tlijril trial for
this case.
