The post office muddle in Gainesville will soon be saiiefac! >rily adjusted. The Union ana Recorder of Mflledgeville 1ms this to say about the Phillips-Waddell affair: After waiting until out of all patience, the parly in Florida, it is said, picked up a stable door, and, after marking the size of their antagonist on the door, set it against a tree, and after measuring off the distance .-.an tioned by the Code, drove a ball through the cen tre of the door. If this is true, the party in Ala bama ought, in honor, to acknowledge if he had been there in place cf the door he would have been shot, too; but instead of that, be pertina ciously denies through the newspapers that be has been killed either in person or vicariously* But this controversy has revealed a perfect prodigy iu the person of Colonel or Dr. Lay. If we knew which title he preferrea we would give it to him, lor we don’t wish to offend a man who has fought forty-two duels and has been thrust through the heart, liver, lights and midriff as often as Jack Falstiff was through the hose and doublet. It is said ho thinks no more of killing five or six men before break last than he does of drinking a mint julep. That is awful! As he is the only specimen of a live Anthropophagi ever seen in this country, it would pay well if he could be carried about and exhibited. Ilia cage should bo very strong or people will be afraid to come near enough to look at him. The Savannah merchants have passed this resolu tion : TREASURER JOSES’ CIRCULAR. We make no apology for the space occu pied this morning by the patriotic circular of Treasurer Jones. He sets forth in clear and forcible language the necessity for this appeal to the patriotism of Georgians. The credit of the State is dear to every man, woman and child, and we do not believe there could be found within its limits a single citizen who would not prefer onerous taxation rather than the fair name of Georgia should bo dishonored. The very mention of repudiation of honest indebtedness is repugnant to the sentiment of the people. Feeling strong, however, in our houest purpose to pay every dollar that we owe, we do not intend to be frightened into paying the fraudulent indebtedness of the Radical plunderers. Because we have refused to recognise this indebtedness Henry Clews and bis confederates have done all in their power to break down our credit; ond we regret to acknowledge that even some of our own people have given these speculators all the aid they could by embarrassing our credit. We know one or two firms who, because they could not get the commission they demanded, 1 have done us great harm. One person has made himself particularly prominent. Mr. Tbos. P. Branch, the cashier of the Merchants’ and Planters’ Bank of Augusta, wrote a letter to the Constitution shortly after these bonds were issued, in which he stated that he could buy past due sixes which these bonds were issued to redeem, at 85. Mr. Branch is the only person to whom we have heard they were ever offered at this price, and it seems strange that lie did not buy all he could get at this figure, and exchange them for 8 per cents, which he knew would be paid at maturity. Subsequently Mr. Branch presented one of these past due six per cent, bonds at the Treasury and demanded currency, and when it was refused, and he was told that be could get 8 per cent. Nutting bonds in exchange, he refused to accept them and protested the bond for non payment. These facts we have on authority, and therefore presume that he is the person referred to who advertised the $10,000 of Georgia'eights at 9G. He well knew that not a single ono of these bonds bad ever been sold below par. When be was telegraphed that he could re ceive a check for them, he replied ihat the Resolved. That this Chamber suggest to ilia banks t lie policy of issuing bills of exchange on New York of small denomination, to be in all cases drawn ou the banks there with which they keep their accounts, ami .-.gainst balances which they have: that such bills of exchange would pass in all parts of the State and the adjoining States, and would furnish a medium through which the produce of the country cou'.d be paid lor and forwarded to market. Rome brags that she has plenty of greenbacks to buy cotton with. We suppose she has. TLc Cartersville Standard .v Express is < flared for sa’c, and is a capital investment for a man who likes the business. The Augusta Chronicle has this: A dispaten was received yesterday Ly Maj. Geo. T. Jackson, from Mr. D. F. Appleton, to the effect that the Dominion Line of Steamers bad been secured to 1 on between Liverpool and Port Koval, and that three hundred tons of coal would be wanted at the latter place on the 20th of November next, at which time the first of the steamers will certainly arrive from Liverpool. This steamer will thus he the avant cou rier of a splendid line, which will run regularly be tween England’s great seaport and Port Royal. Augusta sold 327 bales of Cotton on Wednesday at 13 i'al5;i cents. The Columbus Sun tells this: Every one knows Mr. James Dense, the conductor on the accommoda tion train between here and Macon, and who is as popular as old Popularity himself with the public. We , ~ , . . . . , , heard this told on him yesterday: "Why, sir, I i Lol. JOD0S lor the able manner in which he like toaxommod,te p.»cnger S .

CIRCULATING AW ABSURD PROPO SITION. As usual, the Constitution tries to please both sides. In its issue of yesterday it pub lishes a sensible communication on the sub ject of the present financial crisis, while in the next column it copies, without comment, and without condemnation,an article from a Grif fin paper, giving the views of Mr. Wm. M. Tomlin, on the same subject. Mr. Tuinlin proposes that the farmers shall hold their cot ton and refase to pay tbeir debts unless the cotton is taken in payment at the rate of twenty cents per ponnd. Mr. Tamlin further proposes that the merchants shall then re fuse to pay their debts to Northern creditors unless these latter take the cotton at the same price. A more absurd proposition was never made, and a more dangerous one cannot be imag ined. If an attempt was made to carry it out, it would throw every merchant into bankruptcy. The price of cotton is fixed in Liverpool, which market controls the rates in New York, except in rare instances. It wonld also result most disastrously to the farmers themselves, because it would entirely destroy their credit. In fine the proposition was so grotesquely absurd that when we were requested to pub lish it we promptly refused, believing that our columns could be filled more acceptably. The Constitution, however, which tries al ways to run both ways, printed the stuff with out denouncing it, as that paper should have done. That it cannot be seriously consider ed by half dozen intelligent men in the coun try does not render the action of our cotem porary less open to censure. It’s Northern exchanges are not unlikely to copy it as the evidence of our disposition to get rid ot our honest debts by a most unfair procedure. We are inclined to the opinion that Mr. Tumlin did not seriously consider what he was saying when he proposed a gigantic bull movement in cotton, and a sort of highway man’s combination by debtors everywhere against their creditors. But that a news paper, which, pretends to guide public opinion, and which ought to act with delib eration, should silently promulgate the absurd opinions is a matter of grave impor tance to the merchants and planters whose Macon remvivus!

YO MORE CREDIT BUSINESS. On and after October 15, we shall cease to deliver papers to subscribers who have cot paid in advance. The necessity for us to adopt a strictly cash business is imperative, cur c-ppenses being very large and requiring a large cash outlay every week. We trust that our friends and patrons everywhere will appreciate the motive which prompts this step. Ten days before each subscription ex pires, we shall send a printed notification to the subscriber, and if by the time of its expi ration it is not renewed, we shall stop the pa per. On and after the same (late (Oct. 15) we shall most positively adhere to the system of cash in advance for all transient advertise ments, and monthly payments in advance for all contract advertisements. All overdue accounts for advertisements and subscriptions not paid by October 15th, will bo placed in the hands of our attorney for collection. OUR NEW YEAR’S PRESENTS. 1 dorsed the measure, and the Herald may be said to have stood as god-father to the bill when it first saw the light. Yet, notwithstanding the hearty support we accorded it and the enthusiasm with which we hailed it as a measure of deliverance, we will confess at this late moment that we had terrible misgivings as to its propriety, and very little hope that it would prove practica ble. The prostration of all our industries, the paralyzation of our trade, the poverty of our people, the disasters that had attended our farmers in the previous season, all tended to weaken the probabilities that much of the loan could be placed at home. The very spirit and essence of the bill rendered it fool- | ish to hope that any considerable amount ; could be negotiated in New York. And yet the bill was passed, and Col. Jones, relying upon tho patriotism and pride of the Georgia people that he knew so well and so thoroughly, determined to attempt to nego tiate the whole of the $12,000,000 inside the State of Georgia. This project was looked upon as wild aud perilous. That a people so impoverished, and so discouraged as ours; that a people whose State was developing ten times faster than her capital would reasonably allow could invest twelve hundred thousand dollars in bonds, was considered next to impossible. Yet what is the result? Though the bonds have only been issued seven months, nearly the last one of them are taken. Every bond has sold at par, and the loan has been nego tiated by our home Treasurer among our home people, at a cost of less than one per cent. To CoL Jones’ honest, earnest, manly, can did conrse, the great measure of this success is due; to his fearless and prompt defense o the State’s credit when radical brokers at tacked it, is due the high price at which the We are receiving daily many letters asking bonds have sold; and to his economy and questions about our system of distributing New Year’s presents. In reply to the most important of them we have to say: First—That there is nothing that savors of ft lottery about the scheme. We furnish a paper for $10 a year, or $5 for six months. This is our regular price. We have charged it all the time, and shall neither increase it or diminish it in the future. We sell a man this paper for $5 for six months, as formerly, and present him with a New Year’s gift. That’s all. Second—A club of five daily subscribers from Rockm&rt were received yesterday, each of whom paid $2 50 from October 2d, which carries their subscription to January 2d, the day after the distribution. These gentlemen, by paying each *2 50 in addition to what they paid when they subscribed, will receive a receipt carrying their subscription up to April 2d, and a ticket each iu the distribution. All that is requisite is that a man shall hold a six months’ receipt dated after October 1st. We desire every subscriber upon our books to participate in this distribution. Prince Crouy-Cbanel, who claimed descent from tho ancient loyal house ot Hungary, re cently died in Paris. Though for many years of his life he was a writer on public law, he was previously concerned in a number of rev olutions. He fought for Greek independence, was joined with Louis Napoleon in the Hints- burg attempt and was one of tho Roman rev olutionists of 1848. rigid integrity is due the marvelously low per cent, at which the negotiations have been per fected. The successful and id* ; onest plac ing of this loan is a very excellent, climax of a long and well spent life. To the people of Georgia, who with such prompt patriotism have rallied with their last surplus dollar to the protection of the State’s integrity and the State’s honor, we give all praise. Georgia will ever hold them in grateful remembrance. their creditors into receipting their accounts for eighty-five cents on the dollar. It is more honorable to sell cotton at ten cents, and loose money by tho operation, than to attempt to get around the full payment of an honest debt by any sort of scheme. Besides, the statement that a planter cannot make cotton profitably at less than twenty cents per pound is not correct. Even at fif teen cents he will obtain a profit and all above that figure pays him handsomely, In stead of telling planters to demand twenty cents they should be advised to sell when they can obtain a fair profit, and iu the pres ent financial condition of the country it will be not only wisdom, but simple justice to their creditors to sell at fifteen cents and thus enable merchants to meet their obligations. It is all very good to keep on pleasant rela tions with everybody, and perhaps the scheme of Mr. Tumlin will delight a few inconsider ate persons, with Utopian visions of money made by this scheme ; but it is the duty of journalism to step between the public and all visionary schemes, and to openly condemn all propositions affecting the public, which are not founded on justice. This, however, is precisely wbat “the other paper” doesn’t It straddles a fence and awaits results. TENNESSEE. Nashville, October 3, 1873.

James announces this morning a resumption of his bauking business, with certain conditions, the good policy ot which will be at once perceived. We feel sanguiuo that every one of Mr. James’ depositors will resume business with him, and send their money to his bank with as much confidence in bis solvency as if the financial tidal wave had not temporarily staggered him. All that Mr. James asks is a brief period in which to realize on his assets, when he will be prepar ed to pay every* man to whom he is indebted, to the last dime. No better evidence can be required of the solidity of his house than the fact that it can resume business, even though partially, within nine days of its suspension. We are certain that within sixty days not one of his loan certificates will be in circulation, and that his bank will be more prosperous aud inoic popular than ever. ON HIS FEET AGAIN. Mr. James’ announcement that he will re sume business this morning is one that will he hailed with joy by every citizen of Atlanta. It was never supposed for an instant that be would remain closed for any great length of time, and his resumption to-day is not sur prising to those who know the wonderful en ergy of the man. To one part of his card we call especial attehtion: “Don't listen to any street ru mors, bnt come to my office to see me.” That request is fair and just and honest, and we hope that, all his depositors will ac cede to it. Go to him. If he can't satisfy seek for information on the street corners. The correspondent of the Eastern Budget, writing from Vienna, says: The statements in General La Marmora’s book about the policy ot Prussia in 18GC have produced tremendous excitement among the Austrian public. Ono letter especially, which is quoted by the General, has awakened uni- veisal indignation. It is that addressed on I tho 1*2tli of June, 18GG, by Queen Elizabeth *h000, tbe championship aud of Prussia to her nephew, the Emperior se?en inning*. Francis Joseph. In this letter Queen Eliza-: Damel Jones, beth states that King William has given her township his word that no actual treaty between Italy ' lodged and Prussia exists, and that if Italy were to attack Austria Prussia would not be bound to follow her. It is alleged that the result of the letter was that Aus tria did not believe Prussia intended to fight, and neglected her military preparations accor dingly. But though this attempt to reopen old wounds has unquestionably produced a strong effect on the public generally, it has not made any impression in diplomatic cir cles, and it will most certainly in no way in fluence the present friendly relations between Austria and Germany. Geleral La Marmora is, no doubt, a s neere patriot, but, being also a zealous Catholic, he probably wishes to pre vent the journey of King Victor Emanuel to Berlin aud the establishment ot the relations between Italy and Germany on a more inti mate footing. It is evident that he fears, on the one hand, that Italy may become more dependent on Prussia than ever, and, on the j other, that the war which ha3 been declared | Assistance from Abroad—Arkansas Suffering. who murdered Ne's .bout one month since, ur: jail last night.

Iby Prince Bismarck against tho Roman Catho lic Church might induce the Italian govern ment to proceed with more energy than it has hitherto done against tho Pope and the Church in Italy. His endeavors have completely failed so far as Prussia is concerned, for it is now quite decided that the King will go to Berlin, and during his stay ut Vienna he will have an opportunity of convincing himself that Austria is now guided solely by a policy of interest, that she is equally friend ly with all her neighbors and that she has completely broken with the Utramonteanes. All the facts relative to the policy of Prussia in 18GG have long been known to the Vienna Government, so that General La Marmora’s book does not furnish it with any information on that subject whiclYit has not already pos sessed. It is well known that when Count Beust was yet Miuister of Saxony he was kept fully informed, thanks to his numerous Grinnell & Co. Expelled from the Stock Exchange. The Dean of Canterbury then read a letter from the Archbishop of Canterbury, praying God's blessing on tbe efforts for tbe spread of reformation. Never, te says,was there a time more apt for attempting to check the spic-d of superstition, and he trusts all will cor dially unite in doing so.
