TIE ATLANTA DAILY HUMID. VOL. 1. ATLANTA, GA., TUESDAY, MAY 87, 1873. NO- 186 THE OPELIKA THA8EDY. Letter from Hr. George W. Hooper. A Vigorous and Eloquent De fense of a Young Lady. Omni, Ala., May 25, 1871. To the Editors or the Herald: In your paper of thu date appears a com munication signed.“Opelika," grossly calami- niating a yonng lady of this city nnder pre tense of relating facts connected with the Phillips-Hooper collision. Although the facts are falsely stated as to the immediate incidents ot that collision, and as to the various points connected with them, I do Dot desire to make any counter state ment for various reasons, bnt principally be cause the matter is undergoing judicial in vestigation. Bnt I am, and have been for a nnmber of years the gnardian of the yonng lady referred to and who has been made the subject of a base and inhnman fabrication. She always has been, snd always will continue to be an intimate, valued and respected friend and visitor of my family. She has no father nor brother; nor any male relation residing near her. She is as pare and ss good as the purest and best in all onr land, and her character is well known among the refined and the vir tuous. I do not mention her name because it is not fit that it should be so mentioned as to pain her—as yet, the one person most unconscious of the slander—or her relatives. Bnt os her guardian and next friend, I demand the name of the author of “Opelika.” And I readily sign my name with the authority and request to publish my letter. Here I had designed to conclude, and per haps here I ought to stop; bnt pardon me if I feel constrained to add a line. For a period of years exceeding those of the life of my young ward, her family have been tried and trusted friends of my father's family. For seven years past we have seen the widowed mother and young daughters, who all had been born to ease and opulence, and nurtured with social and intellectual cul ture, reduced suddenly to comparative pov erty. We have seen them sustaining them selves in that honorable poverty by the labors of the needle and the school-room, aud by the unassisted cares (too severe for their delicate frames) ot the household. We have been witnesses of their unaccustomed economy, of their noble integrity and their lofty inde pendence. We have seen all this, and seen it only to honor and admire. It was into such a domestic circle that the font breath of slander penetrated in the shape of a lie, which, by its very extreme audacity and impudence stunned and marred the bearer, while its horrid and monstrous de tails furnished to any one having a modicum of common sense and observation, its own refutation. We feel right well assnred that it has not lost and will not loss to the ma ligned family, one single valued friend. Bnt what then ? How delicate the sensibilities of a s oman’s honor! We have jnst seen the resolnte courage which met penury snd labor with undaunted front, drop onder|a most preposterous accusa tion; we have seen the anxious faces of the sisters; we have seen the sleepless aud agonized mother hovering around her young daughter recently sick to keep from her the knowledge of the imputation scared lest even friendly voices may convey deadly sounds to a fragile frame. One of ns—my young brother—may, in endeavoring to crush the slander, have acted wisely or unwisely, discretely or indiscretely. He is amenable to the laws of God and man. He is upon bis trial, and may God defend the right But any legal or moral criticism in any newspaper, on his oondnet, should be disconnected with the slightest imputation against the yonng lady, whom, on this occa sion and on all others, it is my pride and hon or to defend. Any proof against her on the trial we at once invite and defy. Respectfully, Geo. W. Hooper. THM OVERTHROW. Further Particulars of the Res ignation of Thiers. THE NEW MINISTRY.

Mrs. Emma McKee, who made an unsuccessful attempt to ahoot her uncle, Oswald Ncack, a wholesale boot and shoe upper manufacturer, on the 14th of May. was more successful to-day. Having this morn ing obtained a warrant for the arrest of her uncle, charging him with abusive conduct, she proceeded with an officer to his place of business, 146 West Baltimore street, to identify him. The officer made the arrest, and while coming down stairs with the prisoner, in company with Mrs. McKee, she suddenly drew a double barreled pistol from under bor shawl and fired two shots, one tall taking effect in the back and the other in the calf of his right leg—wounds not nocessarily painful. Mrs. McKee was arrested. The Metropolitan branch ef the Baltimore snd Ohio Railroad between Washington City and the Point of Hocka. opened to passengers yesterday.

Th* boundary Versailles, May 25,1873. The Minis try haa resigned and Thiera accepted their resignation aad resigned himself, when Marshal McMahon was elected President. There were some cries around the hall, bnt no violence. Pabis, May 25, 1873. The resignation of President Thiers, and the elec tion of Marshal McMahon to succeed him, caused 5 excitement here. The streets were crowded all the evening with people, discussing the events of the day, but no disturbance is anticipated. The change in the Presidency was accomplished without any disturbance, and perfect order prevails throughout France. The troops have been confined to their barracks since yesterday morning, but all is quiet in Paris, and there is no signs of disorder in the departments. The Radical journals to day are in their tone, aud they recommend prudence and wisdom on the pert of the Republicans, and urge and a strict adherence to the law. Qambetta bae issued a manifesto calling on the Republicans to taped the law. Marshal MaMahon has sent a communication to Buffet, President of the Assembly, acknowledging the receipt of official notification of hia election to the Presidency, and accepting the office on the following terms: ’I will obey the will of the Assembly, the deposi tory of the national sovereignty. It is a heavy re sponsibility. With God’s aid and the devotion of the army, I will continue the work of liberating the terri tory and restorin^order, and will maintain tranquil lity and the principles on which society rests. To this I pledge my word as an honest man and soldier.” President Thiers has issued a circular to Prefects of Departments promising that no attack should be rasde on the tows and institutions of the country. The formation of a new government has not yet been completed, and it is said that Puke DeBroglie will have the Ministry of Interior, and Pierrmayue that of Finance, and that Caror de Sarcy, M. M. En- nonl, and Balbie will enter the Cabinet. A portfolio was tendered to Goulsrd, late Minister of Finance, Immediately after President Thiers’ deposi tion, but he declined it. Large numbers of Republican functionaries have resigned. Pa&is, May 26, 1873. The text of McMahon’s address was, “I have been called through the confidence of the National Assem bly to the Presidency of the Republic. No immediate change will be made in the existing laws, regulations and institution. I rely upon material order, and I count upon you—upon your vigilance and your patri otic assistance. ” The scenes weTe extremely exciting in the National Assembly chamber pending the discussion which re sulted in the deposition of Thiezs. Lord Lyons. British Minister, was not present, be ing engaged In giving a dinner and reception in honor of Queen Victoria’s birthday. Many celebrated women of Napoleon’s Court, as weft as of the Republic, occupied conspicuous placet and remained until the political change was consummated. As soon as the vote was taken deposing Thiers, repre sent »tivss from different counties immediately left the chamber, and telegraphed the news to their respective governments. Thiers sat s close watcher of events, and constantly using the exclamation, "Oh, Bien, Messieurs!” Once he caused immense excitement when he said, they have spoken of negotiations, when it has occurred to me that they only wanted the government to be transferred to Paris, but the army would not enter there. I have expelled them in or. der to prevent shedding streams of human blood a^ the expense of the army. If there is a man who counts this effect—the effusion of blood—it is myself. I have fallen, or rather wish to say we have fallen, for a long time. I had hoped this detestable faction—(the close of the sentence was lost in a tremendous up roar, which the beginning bad excited.) Again did Thiers wake the enthusiasm ef his friends, when, charged with being a protege of Radicalism, he re torted, there was something more remarkable than that in their midst—they had with them the Duke De Broglie, who was a protege of the Empire. No fear of a.disturbance is apprehended in Paris. The people on Sunday attended in great numbers th' Chantilly races, giving themselves up to pleasures, and caring little, seemingly, for politics. Minister of Foreign Affairs, Duke de Broglie; Min ister of Justice, Ernoul; Minister of the Interior, Bentae; Minister of Franee, Pierre Nagne; Minister of War, General de Cissey; Minister of Marine, Ad miral D’Homsy; Minister of Public Instruction and Worship, Battble; Minister of Public Works, Deaesei ligny; Minister of Agriculture and Commerce, Bouil- Istts. No disorders have occurred in any portion of the country in consequcace of the change in the govern ment. Dispatches from all sections report tran quility. Only half of the troops sre now held in their bar racks. Several Orleans Princes were present in the Assem bly when the question was taken on accepting Presi dent Thiers’ resignation, and voted in the affirmative. Theirs has informed the members of the left centre that he will resume his seat in the Assembly to-mor row, and will take his place on their benches accom panied by the tote Ministers Dufaare, Perier and Leon Say. The whole Left has decided upon the policy of a constitutional opposition to the new government. President McMahon sent a message to the Assem bly to-day. It uas read by Duke DeBroglie. The President says: I am animated by respect for your wishes, snd will alwsys scrupulously exscute them. The National As- bly baa two great tasks: The liberation of territo- nd the restoration of order. The first was ably conducted by my predecessor, with heroic patience; the country and I rely on you to accomplish the other. follow the Foreign policy of my predecessor- I wish for peace and the re-organization of the army, pairing only to restore our strength and regain for France her rank among nations. The Home policy will be resolutely conservative, the administration mast be imbued with a conservative spirit. I will ap point to office ret pec tori of the tow; defend society against factions, and stand as a sentinel to see that your sovereign will is obeyed in its integrity. Opelika, Ala., May 26, 1873. Hooper was re-arrested early this morning on a warrant taken out before Judge Chilton. The trial was postponed until to-morrow morning at ten o’clock* R W. WASHINGTON. WASHINGTON, Msy 2G, 1873. The Court of Clsims rendered the following judg ments for cotton seized by General Sherman’s forces at the time of the capture of Savannah, aud sold by the United State*: In favor of William Battersby, $87,014; in favor of r ss. Battersby and Andrew Lowe, $3,940; in favor of Wm. Battersby and Octavius Cohen, $7,881; in favor of Wm. Battersby and the executors of Thos. S. Met calf, $486,242, the totter being the largest single judg ment ever rendered by the Court of Claims. Batters by is an alien subject of Great Britain, who has re sided for thirty years in Savannah. The other parties are citizens of Georgia. The cotton claim of Wm. S. Miller, another British subject, was dismissed on the ground that cotton, for which he sued wss purchased by him outside of the Union lines, snd in vioption of the regolstions then in force. Judgment was rendered for $156,564 in favor of Charles Green, of Savannah, also a British subject. The main question in the esse whether an alien domiciled daring the rebellion within the insur rectionary States could be guilty of the crime of treas on against the United States. The Court of Claims, following a decision of the United States Su preme Court at its last term decides this ques tion affirmatively; but also holds under the i decision that aliens thus guilty of treason by failing to observe their obligations of qualified allegiance, were included in and pardoned by the President’s Amnesty Proclamation of Decem ber 25th, 1868. A decision wss rendered in a long pending case of Eliza J. Atchva, administratrix of Alex. Atchva, deceased. He was a native of Spain, but a naturalized citizen of the United States, who did business as s banker in the City of Mexico snd was expelled from that country during the revolution of 1845, which overthrew the government of Santa Anna. The United States having by a treaty of Guadaloupe Hidalgo, assumed the claims of its own citizens against Mexico. Atchya presented a claim fot losses caused by his expulsion and it was rejected by the Commissioners appointed to examine such claims Subsequent, in 1865, Congress referred the claim to this court which now renders judgment in favor of Atchva against the United States for $207,469.37, be* ing the balance ot the 3;* millions provided for by the treaty ot Goadsioup Hidalgo for the payment of the claims of citizens of the United States against the Government of Mexico which now remains unappro priated to that object. Judgments were also rendered for $92,698 in favor of Wm. W. Cones, of Memphis, lor cotton seized by the government, and in favor of Harvey k Leviaey for $42,306 for work and damages in building bridge for the government at Rock Island. In the case of the executors of Jno. J. Piatt, a claim for supplies furnished in the army iu the war of 1812, the court found that the Government waa justly in debted to Piatt to the-amount of $131,6o9; but were equally divided upon a subsequent question, namely, whether a payment of part of the debt under a private act of Congress does not bar a recovery for the bal- now. Mr. Piatt after pressing this claim on the Government for many years, died in the debtors prison in this city. The court, after hearing the argument in the Hot Springs cases, adjourned till next Monday, when an adjournment will probably be ordered in October. THE WEATHER.

Advices from llio Grande say that nothing extraordi nary has occurred since the raid. McKinnie reached Fort Clarke with his command and prisoners _ last Wednesday. Th6 prisoners were forwarded to San Antonia. Great excitement on the Mexican aide. The great population were indignant and calls were made for volunteers to intercept McKeunie, but he recrossed the river in Bafety. The Indians are repre sented to be assembling on the bank, vowing destruc tion to the residents on the Texas side and notifying the Mexicans to leave the ranches and cross the river, lest they be murdered among those to be attacked. A strong assemblage of Sipans, contiguous to the Rio Grande are reported ostensibly to treat with the Mexican’s frontier. The residents have grave appre hensions. It is thought the excitement of the Mexi cans will subside as it is reported that several of the leaders among the frontier Mexicans are exercising their influence to preserve peace, even favoring a co operation of Mexicans with the United States treops when the attacking Indians are on their camping grounds. LOUISIANA. Generals DeBlanc and DeClonet Discharged— A Fire—Arrested. New Ouleans, Msy 26, 1873.

A committee was appointed to visit ill the shops so the police, on the alert, coaid prevent any interference. The strike of journeymen carpenters has not be come general, though a large number of men are idle, and they seem confident that the bosses have to quickly concede the eight honr system to the whole trade. Many employees, on the contrary, say the men have taken an inopportune moment for the present agitation, as on account of the duUneas sea- , they can afford to close their shops for an indefi nite period. Scores of non-society man sre at work, aad are promised protection in case of attack. The movement of the society of carpenters is directed, in a great measure, against ten large plaining mills, employing about six hundred hands, and whose owners recently determined to repel the attempt to change the hours of labor, and to-day I announce their intention to stick to their resolution. The leaders of the men vehemently sessrt that every man laboring ten hours must oooform to th* sight hoar rule or leave the city. A number of boss Carpenters and builders present at the Mechanic's and Trader’s Exchange this morning stated the trade stagnant with nearly 60 per cent, of the carpenters unemployed in consequence of efforts to enforce tha sight hour tow, those at work being paid forty cents per hour for 10 boars* work, which th# non laborsrs regard as infringing on th# right hour tow, and en deavor to indues others to strike. The latest rvport Is that the bosses will hold a meeting to-morrow, and that some of them are working to bring About an agreement to discharge each men as sent ia the de mand tor the right hoar system.
