Tlis Disunion Press of the State have, of late, engaged in many comments upon what they have glibly mouthed aa “ pro scription for opinion’s sake." The reason for these tirades Is obvious. One of the order* of Gen. Tor* deprived them of a portion of the patronage they were fatten ing upon, and which gave them much to work harm. We might refer to particular mnllgnant exhibitions of spite, by a portion of the press; but just now, so soon after a major, lty of tho voters of the State have endorsed tho policy advocated by the "three or four [so called] Radical Journals,” we feel too good natured to Indulge’, We propose to compromise by allowing an indulgence of political slang to an extent BUlllclent to remove all the sting ’caused by tho defeat of the half a hundred journals that were arrayed against the J!)ree or lour [so called] Radical journals. Tile people have rendered their verdict. Wc'tylll have u Convention: Georgia has decided to return to fellow ship with her Bisters of tho “Original Thirteen,” and ihfelr offspring. Wo are satisfied with tho glory pf tho campaign and only regret that those who opposed Reconstruction were so unwise as to per mit their action to be marked by so much bitterness. ^ A Bundle of Errors. Tho Savannah New* and Herald, of Mon day last, has a leaded paragraph, published an electioneering card. We quote first: The value of the taxable property in Great Britain lsf3a.OOO.OUO; In the United States It is estimated at *11.000.000.'’ School boys can correct suob figures! But again: In Great Britain the government tax amounts to ninety cents on the one hun dred dollars. In tills country tho rate of taxation Is three dollars and ninety-three cents on the one hundred dollars. In addi tion to this we must here take Into account our State, county and corporation taxes, which have been monstrously Increased by tho corruptions and Irresponsibility which have crept Into the government, the aggre gate of our taxation thus running up to an amount considerably greater than that collected In Great Britain upon taxable property of three times tlte value.” Tax payers know that this statement of the burdens they have to bear Is erroneous! We need not occupy space to correct either of the foregoing statements. But another assertion in the s*mo paragraph deserves notice. The News adds: “This Is the result of Radical rule and extravagance, and should set tux payers to thinking seriously of their Interest, so wildly sacrificed to advance party schemes.” If taxes arc higher In the United States than they were ten years ago, who is to blame 7 Let us, each and all. ask ourselves this question. Somebody committed an error. Who whs It! Who caused the ne cessity for the heavy expenditure! That Is the question we, as honest men, should answer. ATLANTA, GA.: WEDNESDAY MORNING;: :ti NOV- C. TbeV'SAbama Cobvkxtiom.—The Mont gomery Sentinel of yesterday morning says: “Delegates to the Constitutional Convention are arriving by all the avenue* of travel loading to the capital. Already, over one-half, the delegates elect have arrived, and by to-night and to-morrow morning's car* and boat, we expect the remainder will arrive, so that to-morrow, at 12 o’clock, tho hour* we learn agreed upon to convene In tho Hall of tho House of Representatives, it Is moro than probable every delegate elected in the State, will bo present to answer to his name and aid In the organization of the Convention.” Tub Murduh op tiib Esolisii Coxrul at Brunswick, Ga.—Our readers will remem ber, says the Augusta Constitutionalist of tho 3d, tho account wo published a few Bhort months ago of tho murder of West moreland, the English Consul at Bruns wick, Ga. His unsuccessful rival (Martin) shot him down nlroost Instantly upon the conclusion of tho marrlago ceremony. Tho case came up the other day before the Superior Court of tho District; hut it being found impossible to get a jury, the Court adjourned, and Martin was admitted to ball in tho sum of f '20,000. Interesting Concerning Voluntary Bankrupts.—An lmportantdcclsion affect ing tho status of voluntary bankrupts was Tendered on Wednesday In tho United States District Court at New York, by Jndgo Blatchford. It appears that ono Charles G. Patterson, after filing his peti tion In bankruptcy, borrowed *5.000.— When ho was examined beforo the regis trar the creditors on Ids schedule ques tioned him about tho loan, and he declined to answer on the ground that they had no rlghtto inqulroahoutproperty acquired by him after tho commencement of the pro ceedings In the matter of bis bankruptcy. Tho registrar, however, overruled tho ob jection, and tho question was certified to Judge Blatchford. In the course ora very elaborate opinion, covering the whole ground, his Honor holds tfiat “when an ad judication Is made, the following the filing of a petition, then it is judiciously estab lished that the proceedings In tho case commenced when the petition was filed. The date of such salaries then become tho date from which the assignee takes all the property of tho bankrupt, which wa* his property at that date. Such date also be comes tho date at which tho [debt must be duo or exist In order to be provable. Such date also becomes the date -at which provable debts must have existed in order to Iks discharged. In other words, the filing of a petition, by or against a debtor, is thedatc. atawlllah, if an adjudication ol bankruptcy follows, the old order of things passes away, and a new leaf is turned over.” ' tST The Houston (Texas) Journal gives the following account of tho former prom inent politicians of that State: Judge Oldham is practicing law In Houston, Win fall la encaeed in the sarao bualnwB in England; Reagan has married and gone to farming; Graham baa also taken a wife, and returned to his native State, Alabama; Branch has been elected to Congress bu t was not allowed to take his seat; Lubbock is In partnership with hts son In the auc tion business in Houston; Gen. Waul Is practicing law In Galveston', Gray is buil ding housca at Houston. Deatu or Mas. Gen. Geo. II. Stdaat.- The Baltimore Sun says this well known citizen died in that city on the 1st instant, in the 77th year of his sge. Previous to the late war, Gen. Stuart for some twenty ycare commanded tho First Light Division of Maryland Militia, and in bia younger days represented Baltimore In the Legisla ture. no was also at one time a member of the City Connell. During tho late war with Great Britain the deceased was ono or the brave men who defended the city of Baltimore when attacked by (lonoral Ross. Interesting to L*RXsioxr.RSc-Uon. Jas. A. Morgan. Acting Commissioner of 1 en- aton*, has addressed a note to United States Senator David T. I’attcrson. In reply to in quiries made by the latter, in which he cava: “The fees of attorneys lor prosecu tion of a claim for pension to completion Is fixed by law at ten dollars, aim the legal fees of magistrates before whom tho appli cation Is executed. The same law Is held to apply in ease of a restoration to tho rolls of a pensioner, wlm has from any eauso been dropped. Any attorney receiving more than the lawful fee fuses to reliintl the excess, or who retain* pension money for fees, will ho «ohuM from practice licfore the pension otllcc. A Humbuo.—Tho Washington Star, of th^ays: “Rev. Dr. Hawley.of Alha- v. r, has received instructions from the' State Department relative to Ills secret mission to Europe for tho Government. Secretary Seward laughed heartily yester- day at the story of somo wag or a corres pondent who stateJ that the Secretary Of state had sent Dr. Hawley to Romo to ten- , tm preserves the use of the Latin, the der the Pope *n a.yluin In this city until | traditional official language of the Holy | G Decision or tub Rights nv Married Women.—Chancellor Zabrlskle dellveerd. a few days ago, at the present term of the Court In Newark. N. J, In the case of Qul- dort agt. C. l’ergeaux and wife, on Inter esting opinion affecting the rights of mar ried women. The defendants were sued by hilt in equity to appropriate certain premises, held by a deed In tlie name of tho wife to the payment of,her husband's debts. It was shown that while Mrs. Fergeaux had advanced part of the purchase money of said premises a much larger portion of it had been paid out of the proceeds of a business jointly carried on by both hus band and. wife, the husband doing most of the work, although promising to do It on her account. In reviewing the various de cisions, the Chancellor held that while a hnsband may. as against his creditors, al low his wife to have for her separate use the earning* of herself and of the lahor of their minor children, he may not give to her to be Invested In her own name, tho E rocccds of hit own business skill and la- ar; else, if she only took, or seemed to take, some part in the transactions of it, he might Invest the prooceeds of bis labor and management in tho name of his wife, and set his creditor* at defiance. Tho law was intended to protect the property and earnlngaof a married woman, and not the property and earnings of her husband, against his credltoret and when, aa In thla ease, they mix up the earnings of tho wife with those of the husband, so that they cannot be separated, the hnsband cannot male a clear distinct gift of her own earn ings to hi* wife, and they remain as at common law, his property. It was ordered that the premises be held In trust for the creditors, subject to an original mortgage, and to the sum advanced by the wife outof her separate property Murder in Albany.—Wo learn that a man named Amon was shot and killed In the street In Alhony hy a Col. \l m. Betts, Saturday last. The fRcts, as related to ns, are aa follows: The night previous * thief was detected by a watchman In one of lliu •tores of the eity. which, upon signal given, was Immediately surrounded hy a party of watchmen. The thief, after shooting several times at the parties outside, through the window, jumped out and made his es cape. A party of gentlemen, Including the persons named shove, were speaking ot the affair next day. when Betts remarked that If he Imd been there the thief would not have escaped. Ainon replied, -perhaps you were the man,” whereupon Betti became enraged, drew a revolver and fired twice at Amon, both halls taking effect In Ids body, the second entering his heart and killing him instantly. Strange as it may appear, Betts was allowed to make Ids escape, though at last accounts the military authorities were In pursuit of him.—J/ucui lelet/rapA tgf*A German correspondent writes: “ It Is significant that the Russians, wlio. R dozen years ago, were ashamed to speak or write In Russian, ltave now become so out rageously national that they employ their unknown tongue even In diplomatic docu ments—In which there Would really be some excuso for replacing It by French.

The King of Italv employs the national language, and the Emperor of Austria, In his ratification. THE EXPLOSION IN ANNAPv 2I*IS. Particulars ot~(lie Disaster ' On Saturday afternoon last, about »,"'’ ur o clock, the steam lauuch Albcrmarle, h» longing to Admiral David D. Porter, So-’ pcrTntendcnt of tho United States Naval • Academy, exploded In the Severn river op posite the Academy, and about twenty yards from the monitor Tonawando. The launch was being put to an experimental test by Chief Englneer Hoyt of the Acade-, my. who was a gentleman of superior qual ification and of great scientific research.— Tho entire ereiv consisted of Chief Engi neer lloyt, Wm. Clark, engineer; John Shay, coxswain; a colored man. fireman, and two sailor boys. IVc learn tho follow ing facts In regard to the explosion, from a gentleman who was about twenty yards from tho launch at the time: About twenty minutes past three o'clock, on Saturday evening, the launch “Albe marle," with a crow of four men and two sailor boys, was steaming down the Severn river, she having been up about one mile to try her speed, and on her way down, when nearly opposite the monitor Ton.t- wandn. Chief Engineer Host was standing In the aft of the bout, with Ids watch In his hand. leaning over the ~ back-board, as If watching the steam gauge, when be was heard distinctly to say to Engineer dark, “to shut her off," and Clark reached his hand as If In the net of obeying the or der when the holler exploded, sending Clark about ten feet straight in the ulr. and Chief Engineer Hoyt about fifteen or twenty feet over tlie stern Into tho water. One of the boys was also blow n up about ten feet. Mr. Shay aud tho colored man were both found in tho launch. The colored mail was so badly scalded that all tho skin peeled off. and it was bird to tell whether he was a white nr a black man. only hy the linir on bis head. The builer went up into the air about ten feet above the rore- topgallant must, carrying away all her shrouds, stays, and part or her mast, leav ing the boat a complete Wreck. When the accident was seen from the monitor, four hosts left for the scene, end the sailers Hied all In their power to savo those wlm were swimming iqmn the water. Engineers llovt and Clark w ere swimming about, hut belure the sallurs got near enough to them they both sank to rise no moro. The two hoys ware picked up and brought to the shore, and. the bodies of Hoyt and Clark were afterward caught. The boiler lias since been found, and from tlte gauge tt is supposed Mist the launch had on at Mm time of the explosion one hundred and fifty-six pounds of steam.

Oli! women with hearts brimming over With passions we never can feel, Tlie world Is too weak to discover Tlie mystical love you conceal. Our sorrow, not ours the reproving: Your triumph, snd ours the defeat; Our lives are made bitter from loving. Why you are so sweet? Last winter a wealthy Cuban conceived an extravagant passion for a pretty young woman duticing at a leading Broadway theatre, wrote to her and solicited an inter view. He poured Ills passion out in burn ing words and offered to pour out Ills gold aa freely: but she Informed him as the celebrated hugllsli actress did her opulent admirer, that the way to her favors lay through the church, f ie sought to shake her resolution, but in vain, and in desmdr of pOHxcitsing her otherwise h* made Tier his wife. He. tired of her In a few weeks, aud a-* his relations were violently opposed to such an alliance, he soon deserted her and returned to Havana. Too proud to follow him. she went back to the .stage, and during the mouth of May a clerk in a commercial house down town fell in lovt with her. and went through the same ex perience as the Spaniard. Hymen before Venus for tier; and so the young fellow, with a degree of dishonor characteristic of an older head and a cooler heart, entrapped her Into a false marriage. His employer accidentally discovered the deception, become interested In the pretty dauneuse, and apprised her of the clerk's vlllany, assuring her he should be compelled to wed her If she desired It, by process of law. Esmeralda declined to have anything more to do with the rogue, and released him un conditionally. The merchant was so much struck with the woman’s aplrlt and beauty, that, although he knew she had twice con sented to marry in cold blood, be proposed matrimony to tier, and for the third time she accepted. Certain legal steps are nec essary before the last nuptials can be con summated ; but tbe commercial lover Is desperately enamored of her, and has already placed her In a handsome mansion, and made her & deed of the property, with ♦10000 for pin money. His Mends are indignant, and aver that he is infatuated. But he swears lie loves her, ami will mam* her ns soon as practicable. She says she ts deeply attached to him, and Is now lending a very quiet and exemplary life. Her fiance is nearly forty, and has long been sought as a husband in modish circles to no purpose, but no doubt ho will wed Esmer alda this winter, and snap Ids Angers at comment and criticism.

Y. Cor. Cincinnati Enquirer. Robinson's Great Combination Snow. The performances last night at tho Circus gave, we believe, entire satisfaction to eve ry one among the hundreds congregated, except, perhaps, to a portion of juvenile “woolly heads” whose little **gizzard feet” were tramped upon by the crowd. Not for years have wo seen so large a turn-out of citizens asentbnsittHtlcnUy greeted the per formers under the cuuvns last night. The circle fronting the ring might well repre sent an Immense garden parterre, the la dies being the most beautiful flowers, aud crowning the scene.
