Prococity .—Two youths (brothers) one teventeen years old and the other of the tender ago .of nine years, were brought before Justices Butt and Gauldlng upon the charge of stealing from the store of Messrs. Buzby & Edwards, on Peachtree street, the sum of forty dollars In cash.— Upon the investigation of the case, the junior brother was put upon trial—Henry Ifillyer for the prosecution and Henry Jackson for tho defense. The counsel for the defense set up that the boy wa* under ten years ot age—the pgo which the statutes prescribe* as where the line of legal re sponsibility commences for criminal of- fenses. U|*on hearing the evidence, it was ordered by the court that the Junior brother bo conunlted tor trial- Bond and *«*e»rity being given, he was dbehairged to bo and appear before the next County Court. The senior brother waived a trial, and upon fiiiluro to give bail was committed to Jail. Tub Italian Tkocblkh.—There is no longer any doubt, that the French troops have entered Homo, It is reported, on good authority, that the Government of Prussia has pledged her *ilp»»nrt to Italy. In the event of a rupture of friendly rela tions between that country and France — General Menabroa. Prime Minister of Italy, In a note justifies the advance of the Italian ir wqw Into the Pspal territory. He says the dignity of the Italian Government, and the violation of the September treaty by the FiviHi. required this movement.

TKOim.lt WITU SqUATTKBS AT CUH- vbxnk.—A special telegram to the Commer cial, dated Omaha. November 2, says con- i alder.iblc exeitument was lately caused at Cheyenne by a number of squatters build ring on vacant lots of tho Railroad Compa- i oy. claiming that the railroad had no right to charge for them. General Stevenson called out three hundred soldiers, had the shanties torn down, and a guard placed on the lots, and ordered that any person try- > Ing to Imlld on or to occupy them be shot. An Indignation meeting was held, and there was eon.shlcrablcjjad feeling against the railroad. THE OBBAT VICTORY. Kaii.uoad Itkuh.—The machine shop, foumlery. lumber sheds and dry-houses, with tools and machinery, belonging to . the Chicago, Alton ami St. Louis Railroad, at Bloomington, Illinois, were destroyed by Are on Friday night. The loss In mate- . rial and huildiiig Is estimated at $123,000. Tho loss to the road, from delay, will bo ■much more. Four hundred men arc thrown out of employment. Tho annual report of the Louisville and Nashville Railroad, for the year ending - June 30,1807. shows it to be In a most pros- . porous condition. During tho year the gross earnings were $2,158,874. and the cost • of operating 02 40-100 per cent. Tim Knox ville extension la progressing, and will be • extended to Mount Vernon, Ky* by April '"OfXt. The Chattanooga Union of yesterday nyn -It I* understood that Gen.

The time fixed by 8cc- uretary Stanton for auch payment wa» tho Tat instant, and to- thla limit General Grant Insists on adhering. Masonic.—Tho Recorder states the Ma- *tms of Jjlllcdgcvlllo hnvo determined to -establish a Masonic High School. The .-.plan pni|ioscd Is to sell a mimbcrftf Sehol- <ar*hl;i<. not exceeding BOO, at *38 each, ro- Vtlccma'ulc wltliln ten year*.

We will notice next week more particularly tl-c lull object. jy Tho Washington cnrresm'mlent of Cincinnati Enquirer says in his dljatch of November 1: "A rldleulxiis storj Is cur rent that the President nhd Uenernl Uraht havo. through the mahlpuKtlon of Secre tary Seward, formed anulljaneuby which Grant Is to lie supported by the Adminis tration ns it Conservative candidate for President, nnd he Is In turn to secure John son against Impeachment. Of course It Is a silly story, but it Is noted, as It will doubt less he telegraphed from thla city ns • re liable nows.’"’ ty The Muund City (Kansas) Sentinel says that at Twin Prairie some persons nu- ttccd that the prairie was on fire and rallied for the purpose of putting It- But, when •their attention was called to n man who avos riding along tho rond, dismounting ■and setting tire to the prairie In different places, some half a mile or mile apart. Tho neighbors went In pursuit and captured anil hung him. BT A young lady In Indianapolis, Ind* recently borrowed sotno money of a young gontlemnn, and gave him a diamond ring as collateral, lie lost tho diamond, and now she brings suit to recover not only tho actual value of the stone, but some thing additional, to cover Its especial value to her as a memento. Our dignified cotemporary, the Inclll- gencer, shows an unusual snappishness In referring to ono of our notices of tho re sult of the Into election. Contrary to the custom of that journal, Its article of yes terday murnlng Is tinged with a bitterness so palpable that no render enn fall to dis cern that disappointment prompted the heart and brain that conceived It; that the action of a majority of tho voters of Geor gia, and not the artlule In the Opinion, colled out the utterances wo refer to. If the Empire State of tho South lias not spoken now. for the first time, figures lie. But we opine their footings are correct, and will continue to shout—Georgia has spoken! Palau teachers have net been listened to 1 The masses determined for themselves that they will make an effort to get hack Into the Union, from which they were seduced by unwise lenders. Tlmt Is the true result of the exulting canvass through which we have pursed, and noth ing more. The Colon. Reconstruction, Relief, were the issues decided—nothing more or less—and wo are sorry our neigh bor lost tils amiability In contemplating the verdict the people have rendered Tho statement of the Intelligencer that there were 30.000 tllsfranehlscil white men In the State, is certainly nil exaggeration. Indeed, we think the columns of that Jour nal contained articles within the last six months, showing Hint tho reconstruction laws did not disfranchise more than eight thousand. But If our recollection Is Incor rect, we submit a question of some signifi cance. Why did not tho 96.000 registered whites votof About one-third of them did so. What kept thu balance away from the polls f It was certainly not the Built of tho Military or Registration officers, or of the Opinion. A full vets was urged by all the friends of Reconstruction. It Is true that about two-tlilrds of the whites who reglS' tcred did not vote; and It Is equally true that they were led to this abandonment of the elective franchise by the teachings of such gentlemen as IJii,l and Johnson, and such stubborn journals ns the Intelligencer, The masses that remained passive arc not so much to blame as are tho blind leaders and teachers whose advice was followed, The blind led the blind, with the usual re sult! One word more. The Insinuation that the OnKioN has better opportunities of ob taining information at "headquarters than anybody else. Is unjust to thu gentle men connected with the different govern ment departments. Tho records of the Registration Office are as free to Judge WjnTAXKn as they are to any other gentle man. Our statement ns to the number of whites who voted can ho corrected if erro neous, or substantiated If true, by any one who will take the troubloof Investigating the documents which are open to the In spection of all! There Is no secresy ahou t the matter. lutlve enactments In the right of possession against every demand. Those who have them not, nrast be equally protected in his future right under this same homestead law. The bankrupt law and homestead bill are utterly Inefficient to meet the present dis tressed condition of our people. Those are matters which I trust will at once be taken up by the publie Journals everywhere; It Is a subject of vast Importance to the whole country. The prosperity and happiness of our children and children's children in the future, wlU greatly depend upon the prop er management of this Important and highly Interesting subject. I have no doubt but that tho publlo Journals every where will willingly throw Open their ool- umnsforthe disseminating of such facts as may bo developed from time to timer In bringing about such glorious results. We call upon patriots and Christians everywhere to lay aside all' minor consid erations u.td gtvo freely their opinions, that a mighty impetus may be given to the truth* under consideration. The argument that this or that Is unconstitutional, does nut afford relief to the distressed condition of tho country, and of tho suffering poor, who are going from day to day with bowed down heads, and hearts pressed to earth, with no hope of relief. Something ought, and something must bo dona, or starvation will eoine upon the people, and awful bankruptcy to the whole country. Wlmt clear headed and pure hearted Chris tian patriot will give a plan by which re lief from embarrassments may be secured to the people and every family to hnvo a homestead ? Samaritan. notion netteiit Editors Opinion: These terms pre-sup- poses distress. Nothing more true than this. Notwithstanding a kind Providence has blessed the country with crops, and a few months ago, our people were anticipa ting n better state of things throughout the whole country, yet. with all this, our ex pectations have not been realized. Pro visions are higher than they were during the summer, and money more difficult to get. Thu cosh system prevails, and credit denied to all. The wealthy may bo able to withstand the storm, hut what become* of the laboring classes, and those who are poor In our midst? How are they to sup port their families and meet the cxhorbl- tnnt rent* wbfyh are demanded of them In monthly caeh payments by unreflecting landlords t Here Is a field for a world of thought—Dicta which ought, If it doe* not, touch tho heart of every honest man. I feel, perhaps, os much Interest In the political affairs of tho country, as most men, but this Is no time for politics, only so far a's men are elevated to ofilco for tho express purpose of using all their energies In sustaining measures which will guana tee relief to the suffering and distressed. Tho people donhtless are anxious for an equitable restoration of the Union—they * ant pcaeu and harmony throughout the whole country. They don’t want to hear any more of “watt and rumors of wars In this fair land of God's heritage, hut peace on enrth and good will to all men.” Bet every man labor fur that system of legislation which will glvo encouragement to Industry—pay tho honest laborer his hire, nnd stimulate tho working classes to ork assiduously, with the ossuranco that they shall bo liberally rewarded for their lalior dispense.I, tlmt tiiey may bo enabled to till the mouths of themselves and dill dren with bread nnd mont. I have long since coma to tho conclusion that In elevating polillclant to office, with out having reference to their moral worth, docs but little in producing n higher stan dard either In religion or morale. Men, In order to fed for others, In times of deep distress, mus, first! of all, havo heartssoft- cnc.1 by the genial Influences of religious sentiment, as well os las Indoctrinated Into that great principle, that wo must "do unto others as we would havo them to do unto Pormit mo through a publlo Journal to direct your attention to somo facts con' nected with tho election which has just closed. As every ono knows, tho object of this election was for the Reconstruction of the rebel States Into tho Union; for protection to the South, and for some mode of relief to the depressed and ruined condition of the people pecuniarily. Doubtless n very Important part of tho work which will come before the forthcoming Convention, will he to adopt measures tliat will give immediate relief to those who arc ground down by unfeeling creditors who are hold ing claims against them. Has It not been very apparent to every man ot any fore- sight thnt the civil officere in tho State have failed to vote In this election; and, yet, by referring to tho journals published all over thu country, you will seo column after column' of lidvortlsmcnts oxposlng proper ty for sale, not so ranch for the satisfying of the principal, hut more particularly for COST held by the various elvll officers Now, General, Is there no modo by which this can be remedied until tho Convention meets and decides permanently as to the best lino of policy ? JIuyo yoq not, sjr, |hq right to IssiIb Mi order suspending all fur ther action In civil suits until the Conven tion can dctermlnn what Is best for the country and people? These questions must be left to your clear boad and honest heart. America.
