Yesterday morning, about three o’clock, the watchman at the Bell Tower discov ered flames issuing from the top of the brick smoke house of Messrs. J. F. k L. J. Miller. >a re*r of tbflr store on Broad street. He at once sounded the alarm and the Fire Department hastened to the spot. It was discovered that the entire mass of bacon in the smoke honse, over thirty thousand pounds in all, was on fire and burning fiercely. It was, in fact, a monster barbecue not down on the bills. Water was turned on and the smoke house doodad. The flames were soon extinguished, but the greater por tion of the Bacon had already been badly damaged. It had probably been burn ing for hours, as people in the neigh borhood perceived the cdor of frying meat early in the nighty The meat, dry salt sides, had been placed in the smoke house, which is a tall, sqnare brick fnn nel, to be smoked, and a smoke bad been made for that pnrpose. It is evi dent, therefore, that the meat canght fire in this way. It was suspended to beams, all of which were destroyed by the fire. The loss of the Messrs. Miller is abcnt one thousand dollars. THE CONVENTION. warn Ilaa. Uetrit R* WW* Tblaks Abaat Its Artiaa Several Palais. Hon, George R. Sibley arrived in the oity yesterday, on a short leave of ab sence from the Convention. He will retnrn to Atlanta this evening. A re porter of the Chboniclb and Comsttc tionalist conversed with him last even ing in reference to the Convention. Reporter: How long will the Conven tion probably be in session, Mr. Sibley? Mr. Sibley: Hardly longer than the Ist of August. The disposition is to perform the work without unnecessary delay. Reporter: How does the Convention stand on the capital question ? Mr. Sibley: The feeling seem* to be to submit that question to the people, not at the same time with the Constitution, bat at the next election ensuing. The great majority of the delegates favor Milledgeville. Reporter : Will the Legislature be re duced iu numbers? Mr. Sibley : There is hardly a doubt about that. Some of the members are iu favor of twenty five Senators and one hundred Representatives. Others want twenty-five Senators and seventy-five Representatives. Nobody speaks of having the session! of the Legislature oftener than biennially. Ah yet, how ever, there has been no discussion, and can be none until the committees re port. At iln? Lower .Market. Yesterday morning there was a very good display of vegetables, fraits, oto., except watermelons and cintelonpes. At the afternoon market them was a limited supply of eatables offered, yet the market and vicinity presented its usual Saturday afternoon activity. We give retail prices below: Egg plants wore 3 for 25c.; squashes, 12$al5c. per doz.; snap-beans, 7se. per qt.; cucumbers, 10a. per doz.; tomatoes, 7so. per qt.; cabbages average 10c. per head; okra, 7so. perqt.; Irish potatoos, 7sc. per qt., 500. per peck; green corn, 20c. per doz Peaches, sa7so. per qt.; 50c. per peck, $2 per busli.; greeu ap ples, 250. per peck, $1 per bush.; black berries, sc. per qt.; whortleberries, 5a 7so. perqt.; plums nominal; pears, pre serving, 750. per peck; watermelons va ried from 10s. for the smallest Cuba melon to about 500. for a fine “Rattle snake," the very best of any kind being offered daring the afternoon, and bayers in many eases holding off on acoonnt of quality us well as price. Oantelonpos sold readily at 5a15c. ( according to size. For ohickens the prioes appeared to be low and the supply large. We heard of sales at l‘2sa3oo. each, according to size. Eggs are still low in price, but the price often varies, according to the looality where they arc sold. They are now at retail 15a200. In the fish quarter there has been a scarcity of fish the past week. Of black fish there was none yesterday. A lim ited supply of cat fish brought the usual price of 25c, per bnnob. A few piecee of sturgeon were on sale. Sev eral lmnohns of crocus, ordered instead of black fish, were offered at 30c, per bunch. Nearly a Merloni* Accident. Last Friday evening, about half-past niue o’clock, a colored woman was acci dentally shot and painfully wounded, over the right eye, by a ball from a pis tol iu the hands of a colored youth nam ed Dan Allen. Several women and Dan had been snapping the pistol at each other for some time, in play, under the impression that it was not loaded. They had snapped it forty or fifty times when it was finally discharged with the result stated above. The acoident occurred at the corner of Mclntosh and Fenwick streets. The boy was much frightened when the pistol went off. He was ar rested and carried to the City Hall, but as it was clear that the shooting was ac cidental, he was released. The woman is not seriously injured. The Watermelen Crop. From present indications the water melon crop of Richmond connty is al most a complete failure. Melons are usually plentiful st this time, but up to date only a very few have been brought into the city. We heard of one farmer who plowed up all his vines and planted cow peas in their place. Canteloupes are very scarce, and retail at from 15 to ‘25 cents eaoh. The late season and the prolonged dry spells have caused the failure of both the watermelon and can teloupe crops. This is a serious loss to Richmond, as the melon crop usually yields about fifty thousand dollars in this connty. The people of Augusta may expect to see very few Riohmond county melons this season. lie Ciiet n Smell. The War ronton Clipper is responsible for the followiuq : “There are rnauy old residents of this community who will remember a dealer in pills and po tious, named Dr. Holloway. It is relat ed that a man came into his office once who was a great hand to smell things. He smelt around all perfumes, berga rnott, etc., and before closing the abse quores the doctor handed him a bottle of hartshorn. The smeller took a libe ral draught, aud was nearly knocked down. Straightening himself np, with the tears timnidg out of his eyes, and nearly out of breath, he articulated as heat he could : “Doctor, I have smelt smells, good smells aud bad smells, but if ever yon make me another smell like that smell, I’ll make you smell hell.” Wnatel a Whit. Jury. Among the special jurors for the pres ent week, iu the Superior Court, is Rob ert Snowdon, a very intelligent colored man. Two criminal oaaes were tried in the Court yesterday, in each of which the defendant was a colored man. One of these eases was the State t-n. Aaron W. Gilbert, ntteiing aud passing a forged paper, knowing the same to be forged; aud the other was that of the State vs. William G. Evans, obtaining money under counterfeit writing. The defendant in the latter case held a com mission uuder the Chamberlain govern ment in South Carolina iu Jauuary last as a detective, and offered, for the sake of reputation only, to arrest certain thieves who were stealing ootton from freight trains of the South Carolina Railroad near this city. During his in vestigations he presented to Maj. Hager, agent of the South Carolina Railroad at this point, a paper purporting to be re quired by a certain party as a receipt for wagba him, and i* was on this paper that the prosecution was based. An effort was made in January to capture Evans, bat he suc ceeded in making his escape. A short time ago he was arrested in South Caro lina, a requisition from the Governor of Georgia having been honored by Gov ernor Hampton, and brought to Au gusta. Vie full particulars of the January transaction Were published in the Chronicle and Skshnej, at the time it occurred. The defendant was repre sented in Court, yesterday, by Boykin Wright, Esq. In both eases, referred to in the premises, the name of Bobi. Snow don was oalled and the usual questions, “Have yen, from seeing the crime com mitted or from having heard any Sf the teetimony delivered under oath, formed and expressed any opinion as to the guilt or innocence of tne prisoner at the bar ?” “Have yon any prej ndiee or bias resting on yoor mind for or against the prisoner at the bar?” “Is your mind perfectly impartial petween the State god the accused J” to all of whom (he juror answered m the negative, and the BoliatorOenmra] announced, “The State is content" In each ease, however, the defendant objected and instructed the Clerk to call the neat jnror, thus in neither case, though the State was will ing and desirous that Snowden should compose one of the twelve, did he ait m a juror, the defendants preferring to be tried by white men. A Texas lady died the other day by taking six pills called “the opium eater’s hope." f THE JSTATE. THE PEOPLE AMO TUB PAPERS. Griffin wants s dog Uyb Ham is smacking his Bps over water melons and peaches. Hart county hasn’t a base ball dab, and yet she isn’t happy. In Macon it has not rained enongb in six weeks to lay the dost. Rev. Wm. Hoyles, of Jefferson oonn ty, died on the 11th inet, ' Thomasville is having a protracted meeting at the Baptist Chnrch. Judge Pottle and his wife have gone on a visit to Cumberland Island. The Catholic Church in Rome will soon be completed and dedicated. Messrs. Btark and Band ford, of Thom as connty, have engaged in silk cnltnre. Merriwether county is now pnzzled as to the disposition of a colored female lunatic. There is a valuable mineral spring in Bnrke, about four miles from Mcßean station. Ham, of the Wsrrenton Clipper, got several of his paragraphs badly mixed in his last issue. Capt. JohnG. Lindsay, of Griffin, had a narrow escape from death during a storm last week. A negro prisoner who attempted to escape from an officer in Savannah was hot and slightly wonnded. Two little boys bad a stabbing affray in Franklin, which resulted in the se rious wounding of one of them. All the railroads terminating in At lanta except the Air-Line and Central barn coal in passenger engines. We understand that Dr. Felton says he cannot afford to lose the appropria tion to the Etowah, and will insist on it. Atlanta street oars are popular ma chinery for training fiery horses. Two days will bring down the wildest steed. At least twenty cripples and blind men peddle frnit in Atlanta, and try to make an honest living. Help them along. A Bartow connty planter sold his wheat crop, 1,200 to 1,500 bushels, in Borne last Saturday at $1 45. It was amber wheat and raised on the Etowah river. The Carolina Base Ball Clnb, of Char leston, will make an excursion to Savan nah on the 20th of August, to play the second game of the series begun in Au gusta. Dr. Reid, of Zebulon, in jumping ont of his bnggy, last Saturday, fell on the fore wheel and was badly hart. He was able to be out Monday, and will soon recover. An elopement near Franklin was spoiled by the father of the bride, who canght up with the couple, on the road, and hit the would-be groom on the head with a rock. Nearly every lawyer, doctor and mer chant in Lawrenceville is engaged in farming, and they generally saooeed in making two blades of grass grow where one grew before. Burke county has presented a silver pitcher to Judge John W. Carswell as a testimonial of regard, admiration of his character and appreciation of his ser vices as an officer. Last Saturday a lad named Barron was drowned in a mill pond in Henry connty. On the same day a son of Mr. Peter Faulkner was drowned at Smith’s mill, on the Ocmulgee river. Among those seeking appointment from the President of the Convention is Charles H. Smith, colored, who is a competent and faithful colored man, en dorsed by the Governor and many lead ing citizens. During the recent hail storm below Lawrenceville a number of hailstones were fonnd as large as hen’s eggs. One man states that at least one peck fell down his chimney. Dents made on the rails may be seen yet. Moses H. Bently, one of the colored members of the Convention of 1868, is a candidate for porter of this Convention. Moses is a good Democrat in these days and has served the House of Represen tatives acceptably. All of the United States troops sta tioned in Atlanta except two oompanies of the 18th Infantry leave to-day for Oregon via San Francisco, California. They calculate to reach the seat of war in twenty days after their departure. The post hand belongs to the 2d Infan try and will accompany the boys to Ore gon.

One Slone Valued al Three Hundred Mllliou llollnra—How Diamond* Are litfured by Cuttlnif. It is not very easy to make out which iB the largest diamond now in existence. Two are mentioned as entitled to the honor—the Braganza, in the crown of Portugal, and one which belongs to the Rajah of ftattan, in Borneo. The Por tuguese jewel is of doubtful quality. It weighs 1,680 carats, and is the size of a hen’s egg, but is believed to be only a white topaz. The Portuguese Govern ment withhold any information on the subjeot, but if it is genuine it is worth nearly $300,000,000. The Borneo gem was found on the island übout 120 years ago, and weighs 367 carats. A Governor of Batavia is said to have offered $150,- 000 and two men-of-war for it without snocess, and though battles have been fought over it, the Rajah regards it as a talisman, and it is still in possession of the same family. The Orloff diamond in the Russian Imperial soeptre weighs 193} carats; Catharine II gave $450,000 for it, and pensioned the merchant who brought it to her $20,000 a year. It is not cat to advantage, and another among the Russian crown jewels, which weighs 86 carats, is but partly cut. DEATH ON THE KAIL. A Traiii Jump, a Trestle Id Dlisseurl. St. Louis, July 13.—The south bound passenger train on the St. Lonis and Cairo Narrow Gauge Railroad jumped the track on an eighteen foot trestle yesterday, six miles from Murphreys boro.

Jones, mail agent; Pot ter, the conductor, aud Smith, a brake man, were seriously hurt. The train was running twenty miles an h jur. The oonpling between the engine and rest of the train broke, leaving the locomo tive on the track. Charter Oak Inarun Cempany. Stanford, Conn., July 14.—The at tempt to reorganise the Charter Oak Life Insurance Company by patting its affairs into the hands of new and trust worthy officers, has failed, the assets not warranting the undertaking in the opin ion of gentlemen who were requested to take hold of the company. A movement will be made at once for the appoint ment of a receiver, and upon snob ap pointment the payment of premiums will cease, bnt the policy holders are ad vised to keep their policies alive until a receiver is appointed, as they will have a right to share pro rata in the large amonnt of property the oompany own after the liabilities are paid. Hartford, Conn., July 14.—Insur auce Commissioner Steadman this af ternoon made application to Judge Pardee, of the Supreme Court, for the appointment of a Receiver for the Char ter Oak Life Insnranoe Company. The petition sets forth that the assets of the Company are so much less than the lia bilities that it is uecessary a Receiver be appointed, and the charter annulled. Judge Pardee issued a temporary in junction. The Sheriff served papers on the officers, which requires them to an swer the allegations on Monday next, and show cause why a Receiver should not be appointed. Gallo vra Frail la rkuleuta. Charleston, July 13.—David Pearce and Geo. Stevens, two negroes, who waylaid, murdered and robbed a young man named Edinga near this city, May 11th, nnder circumstances of peculiar atrocity, were hanged at 11:35 o’clock thia morning. They were baptised pre vious to their execution by a Catholic priest, with whom they left a fall con fession of their crime. They died with out a straggle. About MO persons wit nessed the execution.

In the atmosphere experienced here daring the Summer months the lethargy prodnoed by the heat takes sway the de sire for wholesome food, sad freqaent perspirations rednoe bodily energy, par ticularly those suffering from the effects of debilitating diseases. In order to keep a natural healthful activity of the system we must resort to artificial means. For this purpose Scbenck’s Sea Weed Tonic is very effectual. A few doses will create an appetite and give fresh vigor to the enervated body. For dys pepsia it is invaluable. Many eminent physicians have doubted whether dys- pepsia can be permanently oared by the drags which are generally employed for that purpose. The Sea Weed Tonic in its nature is totally different from snoh drugs. It oontsins no oorosive minerals or acids; in fact, it assists the regular operations of nature, and supplies her deficiencies. The tonic in its nature so much resembles the gastric juice that it is almost identical with that fluid. The gastric j nice is the natural solvent which, in a healthy condition of the body, causes the food to be digested; and when this joioe is not excreted in sufficient quantities, indigestion, with all its dis tressing symptoms, follow. The Sea Weed Tonic performs the dnty of the gastric jnice when the latter is deficient. Schenck’s Sea Weed Tonio sold by all druggists. jy3 tathsalm FOR SALE. 1 Hoe three-revolntion small oylinder newspaper press, in fair order—bed, 32x 47. 1 Hoe large cylinder news and job press, in good order—bed, 35x51. 1 Gordon eighth medium, in good or der.
