Hat ft sensible article on the subject on the subject ol 4 ‘Tho next Fair.** It says: In connection with tho City Council of At lanta, they laid such plana will make the Fair a complete success and prevent the dis appointment which was so general at the last Fair. We hope they will pretent the nuisances of tournaments, velocipede rinks, negro minstrels and fat women shows inside the walls, for the benefit of private individuals. Everything in the enclosure should be for one price, and if private par ies want to set np picayoniflh side shows, let it be done outsido and not have the apparent sanction of the Executive Commit tee. THE ATLANTA INTELLIGENCER, (DEM.,) Sngges*s the propriety of abolishing the offices whereby onr State Emigration officers and agents hold positions, and of placing the whole business machinery of emigration in tho hands of the State Agricultural Society. It says: Even from our own State, heavy emigrations have been constantly going on, and many parts of our Southern Atlanlio States are vastly deficient in the labor necessary to till their soil While this depletion is going on, nothing acetns to be doing to supply the de ficiency The State of Georgia has an emi grant ogent employed at a salary of three thousand dollars per annum, and a foreign agent at a salary of fifteen hundred dollars per annum; bnt if they have ever been instru mental in bringing one emigrant into oar Stales, we have yet to iiear of it. Would it not be better to abolish these offices and place the matter in the hands of the Agricultural Society of the State, who would gladly take thin matter in band and do something that would prove beneficial to our State and people ? THE GRIFFIN STAB, (DEM.,) Speaking of the payment of twenty-thousand dollars into the Treasury by the new Superin tendent, siya: Considering that this is only one month’s work of tho new Superintendent, it isn't bad; over one hundred aud twenty thousand dol lars clear profit in one month! Who knows but what liiodgett may tarn out to be the great Georgia financier at last. At this rate he could almost make the State ltoad pay the interest on the national debt. THE GRIFFIN GEORGIAN, (DEM.) Speaking of the ratification of the XVth Amendment, says: The Amendment is not so bud alter nil, but you see it whs forced upon an unwilling people by the pressure of the bayonet. It is to be enforced, you know, by appropriate leg islation by Congress This is whore the boot horts. It is astonishing that any intelligent people voted lor it.

Mr. Olark then asked if, since his marriage, he had not become surety on the bond of a cer tain Government official. After a little hesitancy an affirmative answer was given; whereupon counsel wished to know if the witness did not at that time swear that he was worth 360,000. To this query no reply was made, and for a few moments a deep and sudden si lence ensued. Finally Mr IfiiihtB, of counsel for plaintiff, broke the oppressive silence by rising to address the Court, and at that moment Mr. Miller, who was standing just in front of tho jury-room door, turned to the Jndge and said, “May it please your Honor, I wish to make a few remarks,” and immediately after clasped his hands to his head and ex claimed, ‘T feel—as if—I was getting— paralysis of the brain 1” and commenced sinking to the floor, uttering such prayerful ejaculations as “Lord, have mercy on my soull O Lord, bless me and pardon my sins!” &c., or words to that effect. Before reaching the floor he was caught in the arms of persons near by, and car ried back into the jury-room. On reach ing there he espied a gentleman ap proaching who he said had endeavored to ruin him, and he made an effort to get hold of the person, but was prevented. The excitement in the court-room at this time was intense, every one starting to his feet to get a better view of the strange scene and its author. In another moment, however, Mr. Millfcr having broken loose from those having him iu charge in the jury-room, with pallid face, dislieavelled hair, rolling eyes, and uu- distinguishoble mutterings, rushed, with long strides, into the cOurt-room, press ing his elbows to his sides, and puffing the wine in gusts from his mouth. This sudden and terrifying irruptions, as well it might, startled Judge, bar, and audi ence, and a general stampede ensued. Neither the lawyers nor the audience stood upon the order of their going, bat went at once. After getting out to a point in front of the Judge, Mr. Miller was caught by Sheriff Mace, who, unaided, carried him into the clerk's room, and from thence had him conveyed to his hotel This sudden removal of the witness, and the disturbed condition in which it left the nerves of the bench and bar, made an adjournment necessary; which was had. We have not attempted to depict the absolute frightfalness of the scene, as that would be impossible. Those present have no desire ever to see another like it. In all his years at tho bar and on the bench Judge Hickey avers that he never beheld anything equal to it It is thought the strain to which Mr. Miller's mind h- d been put daring the preceeding day or two, and tho excite ment consequent thereupon, tended to a temporary unscttlement of his reason, re salting as above. He was confined to his bed several days after the attack. General Notes.

The dispute between Sonator Camaro’n and Mr. McClare continues. The recent letter of the latter giving the iuside his tory of Oameron's connection with the War Department is declared by that gentleman to be “false in all its particular,*' and asserts that no one who knows Mr. McClure will be lieve anything bo says. On tho other hand, it is conceded that McClure is better acquaint ed than any one else with the real facta of the case. Mr. McClure’s letter has caused much comment in political circles in Washington, and opinion upon it is very evenly divided. The district called the “West Division” his been the scene of most of the numerous burglaries and street robberies which lately alarmed Chicago. Seven indignant gentle men residing in that district turned out the other night, iu the small hours, determined to do a little ia the Vigilance Committee line. Observing a suspicious looking individual prowling along, looking guiltily abont, they started after and chased him several blocks at hot speed, until he suddenly disappeared.

A correspondent of the Santa Fe New Mex ican, writing from Albuquerque in the same Territory, describes a theatrical performance of a kind that seems like a leaf from mediae val annals. It is difficult to realize that the old Miracle Play, the parent of the modern drama, is yet in existence, and in the United States. He says: “The past week we bad a graud fiesta at Duranes, with a theatrical per formance by au amateur company of actors. The play was the great moral drama of the *Fall of Man,' in which were personated God, Adam, Eve, Mercy, Gabriel, tne Devil, Appe tite, Ac. God was represented by a well known butcher of this place. The play went off to the satisfaction of all present, and the crowd was immense. We bad horse-racing, dancing, and various other sports at the feast.” A Cauada paper mokes the following com parison : Tho entire force of the American navy, including vessels of all classes, is 188 vessels.

Register, Feb. 12. One of tho most exciting and startling scenes that ever occurred in court at this city took place late in the afternoon of yesterday week, jnst as we were going to press. The particulars are about as fol lows: At the time mentioned the cose in pro gress was that of Catharine Miller, who sued by her next friend, C. W. Gilmore, vs. John S. Mace and others, the suit be ing brought to recover household goods levied on as belonging to Thomas Miller (Mrs. Miller's husband,) and which the plaintiff claims as hers. Mr. Miller was on the stand nearly all day Thursday, and subjected to a rigid examination, in tho courso of which he testified, in effect, that he was not pos sessed of any property at tho time or since his marriage—that the capital and property used and occupied by him was his wife's. On Friday afternoon Mr. Miller was again called to the stand to undergo cross-examination byM. L. Clark, Esq.; in the course of which the latter gentle man, in endeavoring to show a discre pancy between Mr. Miller’s present state ments and those made some time since, asked if he had not, several years ago, stated to Mr. W. H. Reed that he was then worth quite a large sum of money. The answer to this was rather indefinite— that he might or might not have so stated; but if he did, the meaning was .that he was worth said sum outside of his H mse, will have ended in a few days after ts reassembling. Those striving to carry out the will of the nation in the State, and to per fect tho only policy that can give' us peace and thrift, will be discouraged, disgusted. The result can bo easily seen. Congress will have - been guilty of the high crime of running the State and the United States to vast expense, simply to scat the colored members in the Legislature, there to remain a few days after their right to such seats bad already been settled by our own Courts. Even the your Government can not believe Congress is capable of such folly, not to say criminal conduct The object evidently ia to decide recon struction to have ended at the present time. It is intended that all the consequences of euch decision shall flow heuco. Of these, a few may be named—such cs that the Govern or and the Legislature shall hold over, as if elected to fill the current terms of office, and the next full terms following; that State House officers shall be elected anew; that Judges shall be appointed anew; that Farrow and Whiteley shall be admitted to 6eats as our Senators—at least bo I'm Thinking. A MISER’S WILL. Communicated.] Why They Should be Admitted. It is customary for our people to talk aud write abont the admission of our Senators and Representatives to seats iu Congress as if it were a sort of natural right cast upon them, and as it nothing had happened to divest that right. The privilege of admission to seats was claimed for Stephens and Johnson with something like an imperious air. This posi tion was abandoned with great reluctanco. A mighty struggle insued, the like of which it is to be hoped our country will never again wit ness. Nothing bnt tho mighty voice of the whole people of the United Statos, as pro nounced iu the lust Presidential election, could suffice to convinco us that another revolJtion could not be invoked to vindicate our fancied rights. That voice left no room for doubt.— Slowly aud. suddenly the great mass of public opinion moved lmck upon the ground that Hill and Miller most be admitted. Here now, as in the second line of defenses, the forces of public opinion have encamped fora season.— There are no special indications as yet that a panic is imminent, or a surrender a necessity. Nevertheless, while the column moves steadily and in good order, be it remembered that a retreat has been commenced. No shouts of defiance are now heard. All is silent along the front. The end is near; and all begin to realize tho fact. Taking leave of figures and coming to the point, why should not Farrow and Whiteley be admitted os our Senators ? Because, says one, your government, in all its branches, has recognized the fact that recon struction in Georgia was complete upon the election of Hill and Miller ; and of course, a great nation like this, is not going to stultify itself. That is not quite correct. It would have been complete, doubtless, long before this, bat for the intemperate zeal of that indi vidual who talks of your government. The crowning aet to complete reconstruction—the admission of onr Senators—has never been ac complished. Then, there seems to be a mis take about this matter. That is the trouble. The fact has not been fully recognized that our government is master of the situation ; and that it will continue to be until the evil as viewed by that same government has been fully cured. Has Congress not already said so in language not to be mistaken? Both Houses have excluded the members elect from tho State. They a little while ago passed an act to perfect reconstruction, which is claimed to havo been perfected eighteen months ago. The Executive Deportment has rescinded the military order turning over the State to the civil authority, thereby leaving it precisely where it was before that order was issued, to wit: in a provisional form. All this seems plain. But suppose you shut your eyes to all this, having determined in de fiance of facts that the result will work out just to suit yourself. Let it be assumed that the government has not declared the State provisional, still, is it likely, as you think, that when she does speak, she will declare that re construction was consummated upon the elec tion of Hill and Miller, and that these estima ble gentlemen will be preferred to those claim ing the same seat • upon the doctrine that re construction is not yet complete, and will not be until Senators and Representatives shal have been admitted ? That is hard to believe. What does this theory of reconstruction rest upon? Why need reconstruction ? Georgia was one of tho original thirteen. The answer sug gests itself at once. Geoigia lias been guilty of rebellion. She was a slave State prior thereto. The nation is note free. That nation, in contempt called your govern ment, has determined that rebellion must yield up its fortresses as constituted in the frame work of society and in the laws of the State. It has been decreed that slavery shall not exist, neither in name, noi in reality; neither in the laws nor in the habits of thought that prevail among the people. An entire reconstruction of the whole body politic is ab solutely necessary. Otherwise wc have neith er the advantages of slavery which ended in rebellion, nor the fruits of freedom, which it is hoped will make us truly great and happy. To accomplish the change a start must be made. This start requires machinery. That machinery must be a State government work ing according to the principles and in tho di rection of the General Government. Such a Government must not only be set up, but must be allowed some time to turn tbq cur rents of society in the right direction. To admit Hill aud Miller will be to set up the lequircd machinery, only to be immediately torn down again; for the present Legislature, i! reconstructiod was consummated upon the admission of our Representatives to tho lower From tlio New York Son of Wednesday.] A few days ago Mr. George Fox, a re tired gentleman, considered very wealthy, died in his residence, 517 Third avenue. He had a parsimonious reputation, and was known to old residents as the miser of the Third avenue. It was not known that he had any relatives. The circum stances of his death was duly reported in the Sun. It was stated that he bad left a large amount of property. After the fu- neral a most remarkable will turned up. The old man had been a staunch sup porter of the Govern ment. He had in variably denounced any expression of se cession sentiments, and bad taken a great interest in tho payment of the national debt. Mr. Fox's will was recently sent to Sur rogate Hutchings for probate. It is as follows: In the name of God, amen, I, Charles Fox, of the city and county of New York, in the State of New York, being of sound mind and memory, and considering the uncertainty of this frail and transitory life, do therefore moke, ordain, publish, and declare this to be my last will and testament. That is to say, first, after all my lawful debts are paid and discharged, the residue of my estate, real and per sonal, I give, bequeath, and dispose of as follows, to wit: To tho Government of the United States at Washington, District of Colombia, for the purpose of assisting to discharge tho debt contracted daring the war for the subjugation of the rebel lious Confederate States, tho property lo cated on Third avenue, and the four story house in the rear of said lot; also known os 515 Third avenue.

SAVANNAH. We regret to learn from a private letter re ceived yesterday, that Dr. Thomas J. Parsons, of Laurens county, was murdered in a most cowardly manner near Dublin, on Wednesday last Of the circumstances that led to the un fortunate occurrence we are not iqiptyned, our correspondent merely stating that Dr. Parsons was quietly driving along' in the road in com pany with a relative, when, without suspicion of harm, he was fired upon by a man named Calvin Williams, and the charge penetrating a vital part, he survived only about twenty-five minutes.

Judge Smith, of St. Louis, has just render ed n decision of general interest to tho in surance companies. Two individuals effected a considerable insnraneo on the St. Lonis Mu seum and Opera and Fine Art Gallery in tho Mississippi Valley company. Subsequently, the collection of curiosities was removed and the policies transferred so os to cover the fur niture and building after it was converted into a theater. The building being destroyed by fire the company refused to pay the insurance on the ground that tho transfer was made by a clerk who had no author ity to make it, and that the busi ness afterward carried on made the risk far more hazardous, there being a bar, nnd liquids being supplied to the audience. The parties thereupon brought suit for the whole amount, and Judge Smith decides in their fa vor. Neither does the fact that spirits were kept in the bar for daily consumption inval idate the policy, nor can an insurance compa ny avoid the responsibility for a clerk’s ac tion*. Whatever business an individual trans acts over the counter of an insurance office, be he a genuine or a bogus clerk, must be ac cepted as the business of tho company. If ir responsible clerks are retained in their em ploy, or if persons are allowed such access to their office as to bo able to successfully pass themselves off as clerks, tho companies arc re- sponsible-for their acts. Persecution of the Israelites in the Dan ubian Principalities.—M. Cremieux sup plies (January 14) to tho Journal de Paris a long and painful account of the cruel treat ment of the Jews in Roumania. Some shock ing sufferings have been inflicted on these people in Consequence of a recent circular is sued by the Minister of the Interior ordering the expulsion of all Jews from the rural dis tricts. The order was carried out harshly and unrelentingly by the peijudicial agents of the Government. In ths village of Bacan the Jews were plundered, beaten, and driven out of their homes in midwinter, and two chil dren perished from exposure. In the district ofDaicii ninety-four families, representing about 5000 persons, were ruthlessly expelled from their homes. In spite of these and other acts of croelty and injustice the Minister nf the Interior obliged to expose himself to tho legislative chamber for not doing more to satisfy the hon orable members. One member suggested that all Jew3 should be made incapable of holding property, and another deputy went the entire animal and boldly suggested that they should be drowned in' tho Danube. Not a single voice was raised in defense or remonstrance on behalf of the Jews.

A Romantic Incident in tlie Life of a Wis consin Justice of tlie Peace—“May they be Happy Yet.” From the Milwaukee ■Wisconsin, Feb. 3 ] Last Fall, a well known citizen of La Crosse county, a venerable but halo and hearty old gentleman, eighty-three years of age, met with a most romantic incident while on an Eastern trip. By some accident the train was delayed, and the gentleman, Justin Jacobs, Esq., went to a residence near. Judge of the old man’s surprise to find that tho lady of the house was one whom he knew in early life. Indeed, when both were young, in -their East ern home, they had loved each otk er; but the fates, as the fates will sometimes do such cruel work, separated them. Our readers may be sure that 'Squire Jacobs was glad to see the lady, and so the lady was glad to see tho 'Squire. ifoth bad traveled a long way down the hill of life's journey, aud both had lost their consorts. What more natural than they should talk over the olden time and revive the affectionate scenes of early life, and what more natural than that there should spring from-this re vival tho old love, kindled anew, and that it should burn into a bright fiimo? Such was the case. Then and there they again plighted their troth, aud the 'Squire caico ho: ie a happy man, and thanking Providence for the railroad accident which gave him a new’ Iuusq of life and life’s joys. We learn from the LaCrosse Republican that in a few days 'Squire Jacobs leaves his -0 go East, that his happiness miy be made complete. Senator Benner aud Post master Lottridge, of LaCrosse, were appoint ed a committee to ask the old gentleman “at what period in life does nuptial felicity be come extinguished?” and, as the joke is too good to keep we must give the old Veteran’s answer : “Boys, you must ask some nan older than I am whereupon the committee ad journed sine die. r V '■■■ The good old 'Squire is a hale aud vigorous man, who walks his four miles daily to the West Salem Postoffice for hi3 “ mail ^matter.” He is a great reader. A few years ago, while bolding court as a Justice of tho Peace, he summarily settled a sadly snarled qiarrel be tween two-litigants, the conflicting testimony of whose witnesses had •• badly mixed” the coart and aadience about a spotted calf that was the causo of litigation and strife.; ’Squire Jacobs, with a look of unuttcrablo dfegust for all concerned, decided thus: 44 1 dismiss the suit and pay the costs myself, if the parties will cry quits.” Amid rip-roarioas ipplause, no ono appealed from the decisldn of the court 'Squire Jacobs is a hero evety inci of him. May God bless him in his new journey in life, and may it bo a happy one for him i and his, and we bat re-echo the sentiment or oar con temporary, tho Republican, when we say, may he live a thousand years, and be the happiest, merriest, lightest-hearted man on tbojearth. Late Mexican News. By the arrival of the steamship* T b.-.'co, which vessel lef Yera Cruz on tho 13th lost., we were kindly furnished with the following items ot news by a passenger: The telegraph connecting Tamico with Yera Cruz, Mexico, and other interior points was completed on the 12tb. A pronnneiamento, confined to the locality, was issued at Tamiahan, fifty miles south of Tampico, on the 9th inst. A light ensued be tween the Government, or Jaarez party, and the insurgents, in which the latter won a com plete victory. An attempt was made, on the night of the 8tb, on the railroad cut through the Ghiqui- huite Mountains, fitly miles from Yera Cruz, to kidnap Mr. Thos. Bmuifif, the American su perintendent of construction on the road; bat owing to the presence of a few intrepid foreiga- ers, it failed. Tho object was to extort a large sum of his ransom. A year or so ago, a brother of Mr. Braoiff wa3 killed in a hand-to- hand firght with robbers, near Puebla. .Mr. B. has many friends in New Orleans. Iu a third battle in the State .o' San Luis Potosi. Gen. Rocha, on the Government side, lost five pieces of artillery and many men. and was badly whipped. Throughout the country business was stag nant—-with an utter want of confidence in the future* great numbers believing the fall of Juarez inevitable and near at hand ; others thinking he may prolong his supremacy i u and near the capital for some time to come ; bat all agreeing that he would to wholly un able to maintain control of the whole country at one time. Nor do any profess to agree that there will be a better state of things by crush ing him out and placing another in liis seat. They only say “we cannot be mere miserable than we aro under Juirez,” and a revolution may relievo ns, at least temporarily. In the language cf our informant, tho grand resulting truth of the whole past and present situation is, that the great majority of think ing pooplo in Mexico believe that they will never have peaeo. prosperity and contentment until the United States, iu some way, secure it to them. Such are the points we get from the gentle man referred to, who, thoagh taking no part in enrrent politics, is familiar with Mexican affairs.—JV. O. Picayune, 19Ih. Tlie Kansas Burning .Well. From the Fort Scott Monitor, January 28.] Citizens and strangers visited the burn ing well in flocks on Sunday. From be fore noon until sundown a constant stream of people on foot, in carriages, and on horseback, were going to or coming from that remarkable curiosity. It seethed and bubbled, and burned for them as long as their curiosity and inquisitiveness promoted them to watch it; and* we pre sume it is burning yet, as it has been for two months past. It seems almost a pity that so much gas of nature’s own supe rior manufacture should thus “waste its sweetness on the desert air.” [That quo tation may not be just the thing, but it is the only poetry we have at hand.] It is not wasted, however. It proves that there is a laboratoty where for ages nature has been busy with gigantic chemical experi ments, and that materials, rich aud inex haustible, are there stored, awaiting but the utilitarian expedients of man’s inge nuity and necessities to shape them into appliances of civilization and wealth.

It is well known that Yalmasedo aspires to the position of Captain General of the Island, and, in order to increase his popularity among the blood-craving Catalans, who are operat ing in his behalf, both in this Island and in Spain, he gives imperative orders to make this a war of extermination, and we daily hear of peaceful citizens, residing in the country, be ing assassinated by the mobilized Spanish troops. These orders are probably carried to an extreme, from the fact, that those com manding snch troops are constantly supplying some Cuban produce dealers of this city, and whtMe object is to sack tho country and for ward to their agents such portions of the crops a i may fall into their hands. The planters are persecuted to such a degree to bo compelled to flee from their estates, and their crops are immediately sequestered and appropriated to private purposes. Very little credit can be placed in the Span ish press, it being a Government organ which flatly maintains that the insurrection is finish ed in this department, which is far from the truth. The insurrection continues iu full force and frequent encounters take place, as is S9en by the frequent arrival of wounded Spanish soldiers. The Cabans, being better armed aud tdis- ciplined than formerly, in many instances take the offensive, nnd are, having their numbers increased by desertion from the Spanish troops, who find it impossible to en- daro the climate. It is estimated that fifty per cent, of the Spanish volunteers, from sickness, aro put hors da combat. The hospitals are lull to over flowing. It is impossible for any forco that Spain enn send to exterminate tho rebel force, owing to tho climate nnd topography ol tho country, while both contending parties destroy every vestige of agriculture. LOUISIANA. New Orleans, Feb. 22—Mr. Blackburn pub lishes a card, saying, in effect, that he pro cured the appointment of two youths in his district, who declined.

ALLEN'S LUNG RALSAM, THE REMEDY FOR CURING Consumption, Coughs, Bronchitis, As:Bma and Croup. AS AM LXWiCTORAMT IT HAS NO EQUAL. It is composed of the active principles of roots ar d plants, which are cb»w>i«aiiy extracted, so as to retain all their medical qualities. Ministers and public speakers who are so often afflicted with throat disease, will find a sure remedy in this Balsam. Lozenges and wafers sometimes give relief, but this Balaam, taken a few times, will insure a permanent cure. Will ail those afflicted with coughs cr consumption, give this Balsam a fair trial? They will bo pleased with the result, and confess that the sure remedy is found at last. It is sold by all druggists. At wholesale by Pemberton, Taylor & Oo. feb 23 cod&wlm A Torpid System.—Sometimes, without any assignable cause, the physical strength and ani mal spirits give way, and a strange torpor falls alike on the body and intellect. There is little or no pain, perhaps, but the natural vigor and elasticity of tho nervous and muscular system seems to have departed, and an indifference to the pleasures of life, and even of its grave responsibilities, takes the place of that test Interest in both which characterizes every well balanced mind when in a healthy condition. This state of partial collapse is often the premonitory symptoms of some serious malady. It indicates un mistakably that the vital powers are languishing and need a stimulant. In such cases the effect of a few dotes of Hoatatter’s Stomach Bitters is wonderfully beneficial. The great tonic wakes up the system from its drowse. The secretions aud the circulation receive a new impetus. The relaxed nerves recover their elas ticity under the operations of the specific, like the slackened strength of a musical instrument in the pro of tuning. Lethargy and debility are replaced by energy and vigor, the spirits rise, and life that almost seemed a burden while the season of depression lasted, becomes once more enjoyable. That such a radical change should be produced by a remedy entirely de void of the powerful alkaloids and minerals so exten sively used in modern practice, may seem incredita- ble to those who pin their faith on the medicinal effi cacy of active poisons, but i: these skeptics will take the trouble to inquire of those who have tested the oorrective and alteratlvo virtues of the Bilters under the circumstances described, they will find the state ment to be true. feb 22-d&wlw UARTEas Mil.
