Briscoe, Sharp’s old stand, 33 Whitehall street. The Joe Brown muddle aud the Canal Convention are matters of too little importance to stop the wheels of Justice at the fetation house; for Johnson and his subordinates are constantly arresting unregenerate men and women, and it is neceseary for his Honor to investigate the charges made against them, lest the city's beef bill ahoald become extravagant while the government is pledged to retrenchment and re form Accordingly, at ten in the morning of yesterday, old Dennis came to time, and fixed his syes in undis guised wonder on Tom Morris’ lips. Tom’s lips are large enough for the whole Morris family, and the trimmings would make an excellent dish of hoard ing house hash, but the lips were not at fault this time. It was an accident, Tom said, that the haDd cart he ran over got broke, but Dennis asked for more light on t’ie subject, got it, and made Tom pay $3 50 for it. A worthy Irishman was next arraigned for selling potheen in less qnantltios than one quart without li cense, but it turned out that they were after the wrong party, as his wife was the guilty man. J. C. says he can’t seo what difference^ that makes, as he had to shell out $28 50 all the same. James Griffin, a lively fifteenth amendment, said there was no doubt at all of his guilt, and counted out $10 and costs.

'Whether they winked at the Court or Johnson, or both, as the trial progressed, we know not; we only know they keep spring chickens and got off with the costs. Early yesterday morning the city presented a live appearance, a large number of delegates to the Con vention, aud visitors having arrived. At half-past ten o’clock a national salute was fired from the heart of the city, which shook the window glass and plaster ing from quite a number of buildings. At precisely twelve o'clock the Convention was called to order by Governor Smith. A large concourse of people, among them many ladies, having assem bled st the Capitol. About two hundred delegates had arrived up to this time. Governor Smith delivered he address of welcome in some appropriate remarks. GOV. smith’s address. Gentlemen or the Convention — It has been set tied by the Committee of Arrangements, who had charge of the business preliminary to the assembling of this body, that I should call the Convention to order at this hour; and it has also been made my pleasant duty to extend to the Delegates representing differ ent sections of our common country, in behalf of the people ef Georgia, a warm and hearty welcome, are glad to see you in onr midst, and you are invited to share onr hospitalities. You are all familiar with the object for which this body has convened, and I deem it unnecoasary to detain you with any extended remarks. Perhaps my views on the great enterprise that will receive our deliberation on this occasion, known to all the Representatives, and a repitition of them here would be unnecessary. In conclusion, again extend to you, in behalf of the people, a hearty welcome to the State and Capital of Georgia. Prayer was offered by Rev. Dr. Wills, D.D. At the conclusion of Governor Smith’s remarks, Colonel B. W. Frobel then nominated Colonel Lewis A. Thomas, of the State ol Iowa, for temporajy chair, man, which was adopted. Colonel Thomas, who is ffiae looking man, and truly representative of o great western country, and who has for a long time been earnestly enlisted in the matter of increased fa cilities for transportation, asceDded the stand in the midst of applause, and spoke in substance lows: Gentlemen and fellow-citizens: I return you my sinccie thanks for the honor conferred in calling to preside over this body during the permanent ganization of the Convention. As has been stated, the importance of increased facilities for transporta tion, has long since enlisted my attention and engtged my mind. I come from the northwestern portion of this great country- From a State comparatively and yet possessed of a teeming population of good industrious and enterprising people. In this fertile section we have millions of bushels of corn, which is almost absolutely worthless to us. and which, though you of the South perhaps need, yet be cause of the great distance, and tne present method of transportation you can’t afford to purchase from t How then can we get a reasonable price for our pro duce, and yet the consumer realize in the purchase similar reasonable rates, is a question of vital impor tance, and one that commends itself to the whole country- To remedy the circumstances, inconve niences and embarrassments which now surround is the object sought to be attained by the mature de liberations of this body, composed as it is of represen tative men from all sections, having in viow the ad vancement and prosperity of the country. The solution of these questions is the business of this body, and that you will meet them in an intelligent and proper manner, I am not skoptical enough to doubt. Governor Sznitb, among others, has boldly and wisely taken the initiatory step in this desirable object, his aim being to secure cheap transportation to and from the West. On motion of Colonel Frobell, Colonel L. Carrington was elected temporary Secretary. Colonel W. H. Weems offered a resolution to the ef fect that the roll of delegates be called, and a Com mitteo on Credentials, consisting of seven members, be appointed. Adopted. The following is the Committoe: Hon. I-. N. Whit tle, Colonel W- H. Weems, Hon. E. C. Anderson, Col. D. S. Printup, of Georgia; E. A. James, of Tennessee; and Myer Wlel, of Kentucky. A resolution offered by General A. C. Garlington, in viting and requesting the members of the Press Asso ciation to enroll as Delegates, wss adopted. On motion of General D. M. DuBos-*, a Committee on Permanent Organization, consisting of one dele gate lrom each State represented, and to be named by the chairman of the delegation from each, was ap pointed, and consisted of the following named gentle- By Colonel falters, of Mississippi: . Resolved, That the construction of a ship canal around Niagara Falls would be of incalculable benefit to the West and Northwest, and that it is a work of na tional importance. Referred. Major Cobb, of Kentucky, introduced the following: Resolved, That the construction of the Atlantic and Great Western Canal is one of great national import* ance, and should be built by the General Government. Referred. By Colonel D. 8. Printup— Resolved. That the Convention take into considera tion the feasibility of opening the Coosa and Oosia- naula rivers and clearing ihe same of obstructions. Referred. Letters received by Governor Smith, in answer to invitations from him to bo present at the Convention, from the following Governors, all of whom express an earnest desire to see the enterprise accomplished, having strong faith in ita utility: Austin, ol Minnesota; Noyes, of Ohio; G. C. Wal ker, of Virginia. T. Caldwell, of North Carolina: J. A. Dix, ot New York; P. H. Lester, of Kentucky; C. C* Carpenter, of Iowa; W. D. Cook, Washington, D.C.; Robert W. Farris, Nebraska; U. S. Senators Henry Wilson aud J. W. Windham, and Major General Humphries. Referred to ihe committee. The following resolution was also offered aud re ferred to the appropriate committee: Resolved, That the improvement of the Tennessee and Cumberland rivers is a matter of Importance, and recommend that tbe General Government aid in ren dering them available in cheapening freights. A communication from Mr. Josiah Quincy, of Bos ton, Chairman of the American Cheap Transportation Company, directed to Colonol I,. A. Thomas, one of the Vice Presidents of the Company, was read aud re ferred. Mr. Fort, of Kentucky, offered the following: Whereas, A report aud map of survey of the route for connecting the Mississippi and its tributaries, with the Atlantic Ocean, made by Captain Long has been submitted to this Convention, Therefore, be it resolved, That the Secretary of War havo the route surveyed as early as practicable. Re ferred. On motion, the Convention then adjouued to ten o’clock this morning. After adjournment it was announced that badges ere at the Secretarys desk ready for delegates, and they were invited to come forward and procure them. pie, and speak of duelling as a relic of barbar ism, delivering moral lectures on the subject. They refer to many of the bloody duels that were fought in the South in former days, and express the hope that as civilization pro gresses, duelling will be discountenanced at the South as it is at the North and in Eng land. It is a curious fact that the first duel fought in the American colonies took place at Ply mouth in 1621, between two serving men. A rather ludicrous punishment was inflicted on them, they being sentenced to bo tied togeth er, neck and heels, for twenty-four hours. In 1728, a young man named Woodbridge was killed in & duel on Boston Common by another young man named Phillips. They fought without seconds, in the night time, and with swords. Phillips escaped to France on board a man-of-war. This tragedy led to a severe anti-duelling law in Massachusetts. We, however, do not design to enter into de tails on this subject. While of late years there has been a very decided abatement of the duelling spirit in the Southern States, theie are still many persons who hold that the practice is neces sary to prevent street fights, that it tends to foster courtesy in speech and manners, and places the feeble upon more equal terms with their ^ superiors in physical strength. Whatever may be said lor or against the system, few will deny that cases do some times arise which appear to admit of no oth- or honorable solution. Spcccbcs l»y General John U. Gordon- Governor Leslie, of Kentucky—and Hon. L. A. Thomas, of Iowa. At the Kimball House last night a serenade wo given to the members of the Convention, when Gen. Jno. B. Gordon delivered a welcoming address to the delegates from other States. He began by bidding them welcome to the city and the hospitalities of her citizens. He spoke of the bitter feelings between tbe North and South engendered by the late war. These he deprecated, aud hoped the opening of water com munication between the West &Dd South would not only benefit the agricultural and other material inter ests, but that a friendly feeling would be the result, which would swallow up and obliterate the bitter feel ings heretofore prevalent, concluding in a pefect burst of eloquence, amid tremendous applause. Load calls were now made for Governor Brown of Tennessee, but he could not be brought out. Governor Leslie of Kentucky made a brilliant effort; complimented Gordon; desired burdens lifted off of the Mouth and West, and all sections made to share alike in the burdens and benefits of the goveenment; spoke of the destiny of the country, the freedom, posi tion and happiness within the reach of all its citizens. His effort caused his hearers to think the mantle of the immortal Clay might have fallen on his shoulders. Honorable L. A. Thomas of Iowa came next. His effort proved him to be a man of powerful and vigor ous rnlud, familiar with the want3 of the S4uth aud West, and determined to do all in his power to reme dy the evils complained of. Loud and repeated calls wore made for Bon. Hill, Miller, Hardeman, anybody but Joe Brown, and so on, but no further speeches could bo had, and the Im mense crowd slowly dispersed. The Richmond Duel. EXCITEMENT OVER THE DEATH OF MOBDECAI — THE OTIIEB PRINCIPAL CLOSELY GUARDED, THOUGH DANGEROUSLY WOUNDED — FLIGHT OF THE SECONDS—AN UNAVOIDABLE FATALITY. “ The Coming Conflict.”—Coder this cap tion one of the leading New York Grant pa pers thus plainly states the situation, on which the assembled Governors are to sit at Atlanta on the ‘20th inst We give it for the double purpose of showing the issues that ‘‘are looming in the future.” and to prove to our representative men that even in the camp of General Grant they will find aid and com fort when the “irrepressible conflict” between the “young giants” and the old railroad kings begins in earnest. Tho New York Commer cial Advertiser says: The enormous profits of New England man ufacturers of “protected” articles are exciting a sharp discussion among the organs of the Western agricultural interests. There's a big war brewing between the young giant of the West and his New* England sponsors upon this question. Those formidable organiza tions known as “Farmers’ Granges" are the nuclei of the future grand army of opposi tion to the spirit of monopoly which has its chief stronghold among the rich manufac turers of the New England and Middle States. When the hosts are marshaled and the lines formed, politicians with their little “slates” will experience something to surprise them. Bargains ! Bargains !! — The bankrupt stock of the London Store, comprising dress goods, silks, lace points and sleeves, parasols, hair switches, black iron grenadines, hosiery and gloves, lace and silk fichns and ties, Spanish veils, fans, illusions, tarlatans, goods or veils of all descriptions, Victoria lawns, checked and striped nainsooks, and Swiss table linens, quilts, corsets, ribbons in every style, bleached and brown domestics, Irish linens, the very finest mourning veils and crapes, and a thousand other things, havo been removed to my store, corner of White hall and Hnnter streets. Having been obliged during the recent rush after those goods, to place ont of sight many of the finest and most desirable in the lot, to prevent injury to them by careless handling, they will he lound exposed for sale at my store, as I have now room to show them. To say that low prices will be asked, will fall short of the fact. I will sell them almost without regard to cost or value. John Keely, Corner Whitehall and Hunter streets. May 18-sA,t.

Norcroes, of Atlanta, offered the following, which vrae also referred to Bustneas Committee: Beaolved, That this Convention recommends that the United States Government appoint] a commit tee of engineers to Investigate and report upon the practicability of passing, by cutting through the three ridges on the route of the proposed Atlantic and Great Western CanaL Mr. Norcroes doslred to ex plain the object intended to be accomplished in tho resolution. A delegate from Kentucky arose and made the point that he was out of order, it not being debatable. Tbe Chair ruled the point well taken. Norcroes attempted to proceed, but waa reminded that he could not enter into a discussion of the subject. A motion was then made and carried to allow him to proceed with hie explanation. The resolution was re ferred to the appropriate committee. Geo. T. Lewie, of Tennessee, offered the following resolution : Beaolved, That a committee of three be appointed by tbe Chair to investigate and report the effseta of the construction of this canal upon the coal and iron interests of-the world. Referred to a committee. New Y’ork Herald. PwICiimond; Va, May 15, 1873. Since tbe death of Mr. J. 13. Mordec&i—one of the principals in tbe late duel—tbe excite ment in relation to tbe tragic termination of that event has increased. Both principals and seconds belonged to tbe elite of society here, and when tbe matter, which at first was only an offense termed felonious shooting, became in reality a murder, under tbe laws of the State, for w hich all the parties con cerned were equally held guilty, it assumed a more serious and terrible aspect. Before the death of Mr. Mordecai the other parties en gaged in the duel were arrested under the du elling act, and bailed—Mr. McCarty in the sum of $5,000, and the accessories, as charged, in tbe sum of $2,000 each. They are now charged with murder, which is not a bailable offense, and Inst night, when the Chief of Po lice had procured a new warrant for the re- arrest of all tho parties, none could be found but Mr. Page McCarty, the other principal, who was lying dangerously wounded at tbe residence of his mother, on Upper Mam street. All the seconds were either hid or they had absconded to avoid going to jail, until arrangements could be perfected amoDg their lawyers for a concerted plan of defense. Mr. McCarty was CLOSELY GUARDED BY A POSSE of special constables sworn in for that pur pose, his condition not being such as to admit of his removal to jail. The seconds who could not be found were Messrs. W. L. Royal and W. R. Trigg, on the part of Mr. Mordecai, de ceased, Messrs. Wm. B. Tabb and J. S. Mere dith on the part of Mr. McCarthy. The two latter are supposed to he still in the city, while the two former are said to have taken a flying trip to Baltimore. It is announced by friends, however, that all the seconds will be forth coming to-morrow morning and will surrender themselves to the authorities, subject to any disposition that may be made of them. To day a coroner s inquest was held upon the re mains of Mr. Mordecai, and a POST-MORTEM EXAMINATION revealed the fact that the pistol ball had en tered at a point about two and a half inches from the navel, passing under the muscles in a horozontal direction till it reached the mid dle tine, where it was deflected dpwnward and backward, entering the cavity of the abdomen, and passing through the left bone ot ths pelvis, ilium, and being found in the flesh ot the lett hip, about an inch from the suriace. There was intense inflammation of all the abdominal organs. The intestines were not perforated, ajjd death is attributed to pentonitis. The testimony of the Chief of Police went to show how that, because of the lateness of tbe notice which he had obtained—five minutes before tho hoar ap pointed for the duel—he did not arrive on the ground until it was over. When he reuched tho almost inaccessible field, he at once said to those present WHAT THE CHIEF OF POLICE 8AID. “Gentlemen, yon are al 1 my prisoners; but as these poor wounded men must first be taken care of, I will take your word to report to me in the morning.” All pledged them selves and accepted the parole. The Chief then approached Mr. Mordecai, who appeared to be suffering most, and who excited bis sympathy, when the following conversation eusned between them: • “I regret that, lb* your sake, I did not ar rive in time to stop this,” said the Chief. “It would have been useless, Major, and it is better as it is, for now but one worthless man is lost, whereas, had this meeting not taken place, we would in all probability have met in the street, aud then some innocent person might have suffered from our shots. No, it is best as it is; you could not have pre vented it.” The testimony of one of the surgeons and another witness gave tho asserted points in relation to the duel, heretofore related in tho Herald, thongh differing somewhat r.s to de tails. Tho inquest adjourned at eight o’clock p. m. , to meet again at the call of tho Coroner. LOCAL NOTICES.

We claim to bare the best and most suc cessful College in the South, and defy compe tition. We lest our claim to this distinction upon the progress made by onr stndents now in training, and upon tbe success of tbe grad uates that we have established as snccessfnl business men in ail departments of trade. We challenge for a contest before an intel ligent audience, of onr stndents with the stndents of any similar institution in the South, as to the method of book-keeping, penmanship taught, and proficiency attained each. We put our reputation in the hands of our students. We earnestly invite fathers who are in the city in attendance upon the Convention to call and examine the practical workings of onr institution.

Most Important of All.—It may be true that the Convention of Governors in session here to-day may find the Great Western Canal of high importance, but by far tbe most im portant doty devolving upon them during their stay in Atlanta is the providing of themselves with one of Holbrook’s hats, and the purchasing of some of Holbrook's matchless Millinery. Their constituents will find that they have not made their trip in vain if they return ornamented with one of these unapproachable hats, and their wives will certainly feel that it has been a success if they return laden with dainty beauties from Holbrook’s millinery rooms.

Al though what has been succinctly termed “Southern Chivalry,” and tho constant recur rence of duels must, in a great measure, be now regarded as.past institutions, yet there is both troth and force in the remark* which we reproduce from the Whig.
