SPECIAL IIKHALD DISPATCH. Thomson, Ga., August 4, 1873. Mrs. Dr. Wm. M. Pitts died at this place this morning at four o’clock. The commu nity is sadly bereaved at this dispensation of Providence. A fine rain is falliug this afternoon CRIMES AND CASUALTIES. Madrid, August 3,1873. General Sickles had an interview with President Sal- meron yesterday. Cortes has under consideration and seems to view favorably, a scheme for dividing Spain into forty-nine cantons. It is not improbable that the new federal constitution will be amended to that effect. The Cariists are increasing in numbers in the Basque provinces, Navarre and Catalonia. The Chief Justice cf Almaja Las asked the Cortes for authority to prosecute insurgent deputies. The insurgent chieftain, Contreas, and staff, are de tained on board the German man-of-war Frederick Charles. The vessels of foreign powers in the harbor of Ca diz have iuterposed to jfievent the insurgents from attacking the arsenal. Paris, August 4, 1873. President Mac-Mahon yesterday, in the course of his reply to Madame Roechling, who present him with a gift from the ladies of Mulhousc, declared that the at - titude of France towards foreign powers should be held neutral—that the difficulties of Spain were pure ly internal, and if France claims inviolability of her territory, she ought to respect that of 8pain. Madrid, August 4, 1873. Au Intransigent demonstration, which was exten sively advertised for to-doy, fell through because some of its promoters objected to the use of red flags. In the Cortes to-morrow Senor Castella will move the adjournment of debate on the Federal Constitu tion until the provinces can officially hear with regard to its division of the nation into States or Cantons. The Republican batteries have opened on the Insur gents' positions in Seville. The troops only wait for reinforcements before making a final assault. Barcelona, August 4, 1873. The Cariists at Pratz Dell u sane a are divided into three corps, and the force is commanded by Don Alfonso. Movements of Don Carlos. Bayonne, August 4. 1873. Don Carlos is in the town of Guernica, province of Biscay, seventeen miles northeast of Bilboa. Yester day he took the oath of fidelity to privileges of prov inces. Madrid, August 3, 1873. Official dispatches from Valencia to-day, report the Government troops are making their way into the city. The forces advancing against Cadiz have entered San Lucas de Baremada, 18 miles north of the city. The British, Russian and German Consuls have thanked General Patra, commanding the Government troops at Seville, for the gallant conduct of his men and the protection given to foreigners and their property. A regiment at Maureia fired upon their colonel who left his command with a number of Republican vol unteers. Another regiment at the same place has dis missed its officers. Madrid, August 4, 1873. Iu the Cortes to day, a special committee was ap pointed to consider the expediency of authorizing the The bombardment of Valencia has begun. WASHINGTON ITEMS. Death of an Old Clerk. A gentleman of carefui observation, who has just retained from a tour thiongh the western and sonthern counties of South Caro lina, reports the cotton crop as an ntter failure. Heavy rains, grass and general indisposition on the part of the negroes to perform the nec essary work, are the prime causes of the ca lamity. He says that the entire crop from Beech Island to the Allandale region near the coast is lost beyond redemption. The rice crops are iu fine condition, which fact consti tutes the only saving feature in agriculture over there. The negroes are civil enoogh, bnt re7u>ro.«uUon'af7a.urgeni'deput', J they despise labor in the cotton patch to such a degree that they simply cannot be induce! to perform it. There is what they call a Trial Justice in e.ich township, before whom all pett^offenses are brought. Most of these officiJPRrc ne groes, and make from three to ten thousand dollars a year. It is of coarse to the interest of these gentry to foster trouble between the races, aud they almost invariably decide fa vorably to their own color. The result is that rather than attempt to force employees into^pl- observance of contracts, the white employer profers letting them go scott free though the salvation of a crop of cotton were at stake. The people are of course in a state of great despondency, with no prospect of relief. It behooves the people of Georgia to thank God for delivering them thus far out of the clutches of uegroe-radieal rule. Let us hope, though it be against hope, that our suffering sister State may’yet emerge from her terrible ordeal with something left of her former grandeur. Pickpockets Assail an Ex cursion. KILLED BY A BEER GLASS. KICKED TO DEATH. Negro Lynched in Kentucky. A Wife Shoots Her Husband. ALMA ITER! The Commencement Session at the University of Georgia. The Class Tree of 1872.

During tbr excursion of the Helitia Manner Choir to College Point yesterday, a rain storm drove the ex cursionists on board of a boat. A crowd of pick pockets endeavored to get ou beard, but failing in this attempt, attacked the excursionists with bricks aud stones. Two gentlemen had tbeir skulls fractured. Several ladies were seriously injured, one report* d knocked down t/ a stone. Several of the injured par ties have been carried to Bellevue Hospital. Charles Steinbcrn, & bartender iu a saloon ou West Houston street, was struck on the arm by a beer glass by Charles Dunn. The main artery was severed, which probably wiU result in doath. Dunn escaped. A pitcher thrown by a Brooklyn rough at another killed a child in a cradle. Timothy Donovan kicked his wife, fatally ii juring* her. Philadeldhia, August 4, 1873. An insensible person was picked up on the street and carried to the hospital, who shortly at ter wards died of spotted fever. Frankfort, August 4, 1873.

The mine boss, Harkneas, rushed to the rescue, and prostrated by a fire damp. Ho was taken ont alive. Vouchers Stolen. New York, August 4, 1873. The Hawkinsville Dispatch pays us such a dainty compliment, that we feel compelled to forego our usual modest custom and give it to our readers. From the bushel of good things clipped daily by our news editor from our exchanges, it is certainly pardonable to reproduce one or two of those that wo most highly appreciate: The Atlanta Herald is one of the most en terprising daily papers in Georgia. The Herald is not only the most enterpris ing, bnt the most independent. When other Georgia dailies were advising the Legislature to compromise on the illegal bond question, the Herald stood firm and protested against such a wrong being perpetrated upon our peo ple. It made then a record for boldness which it maintains. Other papers, much older than the Herald, “ went back cm their record,” and wanted the “equities” of the case inves tigated. They found, however, but few hon est (though they be ignorant) people to en dorse their views. The Atlanta Daily Herald reaches Haw- kinsville the same day on which it is issued. It is the best NEWspaper published at the Georgia Capital, even if it does contain so many horrible blood and thunder articles. THE PRIZE RING. Fight between Seddons and Chambers - Sed- dons whipped—The particulars of the Brutal Affair—A fight at Flushing. New York, August 3, 1873. The prize fight between Seddons and Chambers took place this evening near Prosp ct Park Fair Gronnd, Brooklyn, just off Coney Island road, and resulted, after fourteen rounds, which occupied nearly an hour, in the defeat of Seddons, who it Is said was not In a good fighting condition. He wm pnnisbed severely by Chambers, who dis played much nerve and skill throughout the fight] Finally Seddons was knocked ont of time and his saconds threw up the sponge. The affair was kept very quiet, and wm witnessed by but a few New York and Brooklyn sports. The police wm deceived by a rumor that the men were to meet at Coney Island. New York, August 4, 1873. The Cbambers-Seddons prize fight, yesterday, wm carried out oo quietly that the police were completely frustrated in their attempts to discover the locality. The fight wm on Long Island, between Graves End and New Kntrecht. A line wm formed in a clump of trees, a rope being runaround trees in line stakes. There wm but little lormallty In preliminaries. The men walked into the ring in plain clothes. Chambers wm in splendid con dition. Seddons showed signs of over training. Forty-seven rounds were fought. Chambers drew the first blood. The men came to time promptly until after the fortieth round, when Seddons showed effects of heavy pummelling he had received. At the end of the forty-seventh round Seddons face was pummelled to a jelly. Failing to come to ti ne, bis seconds threw up the sponge. Chambers was not much Injured. Seddons wm barely able to stand up, and had to be can led to a carriage and conveyed to his home. Chambers immediately left for his borne in Newark. Flushing, August 4.18771. Jack Bayloo and Peter Croker fought at five this morning. There were numerous spectators. Twenty- three rounds fought, Croker winning. Bsyloa was s^veriy punished. The fight wm for $500 and the middle-weight championship of America. Washington, August 4, 1873. Robert S. Chew, Chief Clerk of the State Depart ment, who diod y< sterday, commenced his carreer in that department, under John Forsyth, of Alabama Secretary of State to Andrew Jackson. Official dispatches from Washington Territory report two white women killed by the Indians while return ing from the peace commission. Sonthern Claims Commission. Washington. August 4, 1873. All the claims presented to the Southern Claims Commission, sitting at Washington, under act March 3d, 1871, have now been numbered and registered, and their number is found to be 22,295, and tbeir aggre gate amount as claimed, something in excels of fifty-six million dollars, In their last report to Congress. the Commissioners estimated total number of claims to be filed under the act ia 19,- 000, aud the amount to be claimed fifty million dollars in ronnd numbers. The extraordinary exertions of the claim agents, however, when they found the time for filiDg claims was not likely to be extended for the prcecnt beyond the two years originally fixed by Con gress, resulted in a considerable addition to the estimated number and amount of claims to be filed no less than 1,578, representing, according to claim ants figures, considerably more tban three million dol. lars, which were filed under date of March 3d, the last day allowed by law for the presentation of claims. Maoy more were put out from present considexation by the somewhat unexpected termination of the right to present them, and there are believed to be several thousand. By the somewhat unexpected termination of the ritht to present them, (and there are believed to be several thousand persons yet, in the late insuncction ary States, who, despite the exertions of the Govern ment agents and attorneys, have not even heard of the act of Congress, passed for the benefit of sneb of them as were not adherents of the Confederacy), claims are presented dally to the Quartermaster Gene ral and Commistary General by residents of the latter. The informed loyal States who have but just learned that Congress has passed a iqu-cial act nearly ten years ago, to pay for property taken for army use not in re bellion. Gen. Meigs, the Quaibrraaster General, will not recommend a statute ortmi.t.itions for claims coming before him, as in th • case of claims before the Commissary General, believing from his daily experience that such a statute, whenever passed would be certain exclude some meritorious claims against the Govern ment from a just settlement. In the case of the South era claims, Congress must cither extend the time for filing them before the commissioners or submit to the alternative of receiving and considering them singly | under the constitutional right of petition; and a small 1 number of excluded claimants have already signified j their intention of prosecuting their claims directly be fore the Claims Commissions of the two branches of Congress. Under the settlements so far made by the commissioners, about twelve hundred thousand dollars have been distributed among some 1,400 claimants scattered all over the eleven insurrectionary States The awards, except in a comparatively small number of casea, being for a few hundred dollars each. At the coming aesaioQ of Congress they expect to award about one million dollars, to be similarly distributed and will then have disposed of about twenty four per cent of the number of claims filed, and twenty per cent, of tbe amount claimed now that all claims before them that cm be presented under the original act of Congress, the Commissioners have had prepared and have iu press a full digest of the claims, giving by States and counties tbo names of claimants and amounts claimed, accompanied by tbe explanatory statements that the names are those of citizons of the Southern flutes who have, within the past two years One of tho safes containing the Department of Pub- lie Works vouchers has been broken open. The com- missioner cannot tell whether any of the vouchers are missing or not. GLIMPSES OF GOTHAM. Seizure of Cigars and Chignons—Recruits lor Cuba—Cholera—Sale of Bonds. New York, August 3, 1873 A large force of laborers from the Board of Health, escorted by a body of police, preceded to Fulton Market at midnight and tore down all the remaining booths sheds and stands ontsidc of the market. The work of demolition was carried on in a quiet manner. The occupants showed no resistance whatever. It is rumored in the city to-night that three hundred en chiefly Americans, have been «• ‘listed by General Quesada for service against the Spa .?h troops now in Cuba. The custom house officials yesterday seized a large quantity of cigars and cigarettes smuggled on the Ha vana steamship Wilmington. The custom house officers seized from the crew of a Bremen steamer a quantity of human hair, apraiased at $10,000, and two baga of rare laces. The Government buys one-half a million iu bonds on the second Wednesday in August, and sells one and one-half millions in gold etch Thursday. Cholera has appeared at Union Hill, opposite Now York. Two cases are reported -one fatal. One fatal case has been reported at PleasaDtvllle, ou the Har lem Railroad. A Lima letter reports unprecedented rains along the coast of Peru.

Special Telegraphic Correspondence of the Herald Athens, August 4, 1873. Commencement opened yesterday with tbe largest and most brilliant crowd bere in six years. Every part of the State contributes to its quota of beauty and iulent. Tbe exercises opened on Saturday by tbe ‘planting of tbe class tree” by tbe class of 1872 aud 1873. The ceremonies were spicy. Niles, a fat and funny man, was class histo rian. Barrow, lean aud laughable, was prophet. Each created much mirth. THE SUNDAY EXERCISES. Bishop Beckwith being quite sick, the Rev. Dr. Dugsdale, ot Emanuel Church preached the commencement sermon—text, “Fear God.” The sermon was an exquisite piece of word painting, with gleams of rare power through it', but the effect was weakened by a priggish affectation iu pronunciation. [He calls “ man ’ “ mam,” and “ God ” “ Gawd,” and calls “can not” “earn nawt.”— Ed.] Dr. Lipscomb delivered the first Baccalau reate address he ever delivered. lie says cor ruption iu our day breeds with the rich, rather than the poor masses. Our fabric, like the hemlock tree, is dying from thelop. Dr. Dixon, of Augusta, delivered a lecture to the Youug Men’s Christian Association at night, iu the Methodist Church, and bun dreds upon hundreds were turned away from the crowded doors. The lecture was chaste, elegant, and eloquent with an earnest and deep piety. “THE JAUNTY SOPHS.” The SSopbomore declamation the most in teresting feature of the season—came off this morning. Great interest as to who will take off the medal. It is generally conceded that Graves, Fou aud Hugh Gordon are the lead ing chnnce-ists. The selections were quite apropos. Aleck Stephens delivered the address to the two Societies this afternoon, at five o’clock. Mis subject was “The Letters of Junius.” He discussed their principles aud their char acter rather thuu their authorship, though he argued at length that Lord Littleton wrote them. There was the wildest possible enthu siasm when the crippled ex-Vice President mounted the stage. PERSONAL MENTION. There is a grand ball progressing at Dou pree’s Hall as J write.

REPORTED SINKING OF A YACHT. Loss oi All ou Board —Stolen Money Re covered. New York, August 4, 1873. Much excitement ex sts among the yacbtmen iu this city to-day, caused by a widely circulated report that a yacht was run down on the Sound, by tbe Newport steamer, one night last week, aud sunk with all on board. The report also fays that the steamer struck the yacht about amidships, au l appeared to knock the mast out of her, siukiug her ahuoet on the iustaut. The steamer was hove to and renniqed near tho vessel hour afterwards, but was unable to detect any further sign of the vessel or crew.
