In a conversation had with the officer upon the subject of bis troubles, it was sug gested to him that he had the privilege to demand a court of inquiry, and Inasmuch as ths charges had be come a matter of bublic notoriety, it might be to his advantage to request an investigation by a military court. Gen. Howard replied that with the feeling to ward him by many officers in the United States army, he did not think he could get justice, and hence bad thus far d< cllned to ask for a trial by such a tribunal.

The balk of this was given in aid of graded schools. Total amount appropriated to schools of the State $38,200. In North Carolina the condition of public schools owd education generally is far from satisfactory.

That the effort thus far to establish the pnblic school system for that State has resulted in fund contributed $10,200 twelve schools in Florida. A somewhat gloomy pic ture of the condition of education In this State is given from a report of the State Superintendent, who. among other rema«kt,says it is saddening to reflect that three- fourtha of the youth of this State ore jet osreoched by the edocotfgeol system, bnt odds that it is encourag ing to know that the ratio ia rapidly changing.

A meeting of the railroad men was held yesterday at the Union Pacific shops to consider the case. It was attended by over four hundred men. A committee was appointed to draft resolution* and draw up a programme, to be followed should neces sity demand it. They threaten to deal summarily with gamblers and roughs who infest this city for months past. Twelve or fifteen of the fraternity have already left town. Atwood lies in s precarious condition. LATER. OjuUa, Jiuy 17, ibid- A Commission was appointed at a meeting of rail road men on Tuesday who reported at a subsequent meeting that the Citizens’ Commission bad bven or ganized for the parpoaa of assisting the authorities to enforce the laws. In case of inability or neglect by the authorities to preserve order the Citizens’ Com mission would take measures to secure protection to the lives and property of all good citizens. It was hoped that the Commission would not be called upon to interfere, but if necessary, would act prompt ly. That whereas, the city was infested with robbers and gamblers whom the city authorities, thus far, had failed to arrest, and which fact was publicly known to the discredit of the city, they had formed them selves for the purpose of self-protection, and now give notice that if some remedy was not speedily ap plied they would feel justified in using summery measures. • ENGLAND.

I am sensible of the force of the philanthropic motives in dictating that address. I have at all times desired to extend the practice of closing international controversies by thier submission to impartial friends, and to encourage the establishment of rules intended for the equal benefit of alL I shall continue to pursue a similar course with due regard to time and opportunity whenever it ia likely to be attended with advantage. The House received the document with hearty cheers. THE INDUSTRIAL CONGRESS. Its Meeting in Cleveland—Protest Against Cheap Labor—General Summary of the Proceedings. Cleveland, July 17, 1873.

The Commit- Co-operation reported as follows: That we re cognize in co-operation the most feasible plan for adjustment of the differences between labor «and capital, and that this Labor Congress recommend the enactment of efficient laws for the piotection and encouragement of co-operative asso ciations In the several States. The committee on arbitration reported the follow ing, which was adopted: Whereas, it is evidently neccessary to devise a more peaceable plan of settling difficulties between ployers and employees than by strikes, they being nsually detrimental to the interests of both parties, recommend the adoption of the following resolu tion: That it is deemed advisable by this Congress that all towns adopt a system of arbitration, and that all bers of the industrial classes be urged to cost their votea for no man unless he be pledged to use his vote and influence toward the adoption of laws making ar bitration s ltgal means of settling difficulties between employers end employees.

Governor Smith introduced the speakers. Colonel J. R. Wallace addressed the Society on the subject of Peach culture. A few years ago three or four gautlameir met in a back room on Alabama street and organized this Socie ty. From this small beginning the Society had grown to its present size. He hod over 100 varieties of Peaches —began planting in 1867. Was enthusiastic on the subject of Peaches. Colonel Wallace closed amid a storm of applause. Colonel Robert Baugh addressed the Society on the snbject of Apples. The forbidden fruit tempted Mother Eve and tempts poople yet. It is a very profit able crop. First Pomological Society organized in New Jersey in 1848. Fifty-four varieties recommended in 1848—now, 580—625 varieties rejected as being worthless. National societies have since been organized in Eng land, France and Belgium. Dr. Samuel Hape talked grapes to the society. Grapes nearly coeval with man—a native of Persia. Three different species of grapes in this country—the ecappervoog the least liable to disease. Thinks from his experience that grapes can be cultivated very prof itably here. Thinks the poor hills can thus be util ized, and the wine crop become one of the most im portant. j. Norcross discussed strawberries. Most roliable crop—earliest fruit—conduces greatly to sociality— brings the rich and poor, the high and lowly, together in festivals, Ac. Gave a description of the manner ill •which he cultivates the strawberry. Wight talked cotton. Nobody had talked about making much money out of fruits. Thirty-two thousand bales of cotton sold here the past season, bringing over $2,OCO,OCO. Cotton has no enemies. Grub worms ruin the grapes and other irnits. Pears, peaches and apples nearly all killed this year by frost- Dry weather dried up his strawberries. Can’t irrigate anything in Atlanta. City Fathers opposed even to irrigating fires, because it cost money to get water. Can’t get advances from merchants to make fruit crop. A young man at Cartersville counted 999 bolls, forms and squares on one stalk of cotton. If boll worm did not come along the stalk could not mature its fruit. Four millions bales made last year, bring ing over three hundred millions of dollars. Mark W. Johnson talked cotton too. The whole fruit crop of the United Slates only amounts to $47,- 000,080. Cotton crop, $210,000,000, at fifteen cents the lowest prices. Did not wish to discourage fruit rais ing. Wished Pomology great success. Colonel R. A. Alston was called, but iu consequence of ths sickness of bis family he was absent. Colonel Wallace requested that Governor Smith holdup his decision. The Governor stated that be must decide in favor of all the gentlemen, each hav ing proved the culture of bis vanity oi fruit indispen sable, and the cotton men having shown that we could not get along without It. The premium for the beat peck of tomatoea was swarded to Dr. Samuel Hspe. Moat of ths gentlemen who hod fruits on exhibition contributed th;m to ths audience, who qnickly demolished the supply. Col. J. R. Wallace was noticeable for hia liberality in this particular, as wells* for making the shortest and spi ciest speech of the evening. The Committee of Arrangements meet this morning at 9W o'clock. Another exposition of fruits, etc., takes place on the 2d of August, at which time it is proposed to or ganize a State Pomological Society. We trust this will be done. We must not forget to mention that J. Bulow Campbell had several fine watermelons on ex hibition, at which we saw Alderman Beatie looking with watering mouth. Many of the best citizens and most beautiful and refined ladies Id the city were present. 75—5—32—66 -19-34—51—77—23-60 -6—13—56 HOWARD A CO.. Managers. NOTICE. M Y HEADQUARTERS are with M. k 4.

It would be impossible to regulate the isles so as to preclude bad and indiffsrent fruit, and it is well known that, notwithstanding the per* nicioua results fretn eating, the greater portion of our people would buy if they were exposed lor sale. The good health of the entire dty ie far uwue valuable than the Interest which would accrue from the sale of this tempting fruit; and while there is any risk on that poiut wa think it unwise to hasasrd one good name abroad for health to the pray ers of s few dealers.
