Green, ., rites the Atlanta Constitution that the real capacity of the lunatic asylum does not exceed 517 patients, if all injurious and possibly dangerous crowding be avoided. The institution is at present greatly crowded, as it contains 594 patients; aud yet for months Dr. Green has been obliged to notify ordinaries of the inability of the asylum to hold another patient except as a vacancy occurs. A record is kept of all applications, and notice is sent in turn as fast as vacancies will permit. Some further relief for this unfortunate class of people seems to be demanded by the pressure of applica tions from the counties of the State; and the plan suggested by Dr. Green in his annual report—tho removal of the idiot eiiis.-:—should receive careful attention. Il is an economical way of providing the additional accommodations which are sadly needed. Col Jones of the Macon Telegraph, recently availed himself of the opportu nity of interviewing one of the most ex. tensive and successful planters in the State. It is gratifying to know that scattered few” of this description are still to bo found. Mr. is the fortunate owner of seven plantations, covering an area of 13,000 acres, lying in Southwest era and Middle Georgia. His crop last year panned out 950 kales of cotton and 8,1)00 bushels of corn. Four hundred and fifty bales of the former are still in store at Macon. Tbe present year he w'ill cul tivate 1,700 acres in cotton, has 400 acres laid down in wheat aud 350 in oats, and expects to devote 1,300 acres to corn. The' Darien Gazette is sorry to note serious backwardness in the preparation for planting, especially upon the part of rice planers upon the Altamaha. Blessed last year wOth a harvest season of rare oc currence, the' v have had to suffer since Christmas the uUastsr of a most inclem ent January, with such conditions of weather as to preclude all work of prepa ration for the spring. This delay in the preparation of the lands, which should at this date be nearly complete, will continue to work to the disad vantage of the planting interest and postpone the crop to much damage incident from late planting and October harvesting. The weather is still bad and the ground will for some days yet con tinue too wet for ploughing; indeed, hut little stubble has as yet been burned and much ditching remains to bo done. These circumstances deny us any indul gence in the hope that the present y ear's crop will be any larger than that of last 3 oar, which was in itself shorter by many tho 'isand bushels than that of the pre ceding" )U'.r. This ought to enhance the value ot the product of last year's crop as yet uns''' 111 - Dahlonega Signal: For the last three days it has bee. n raining as if the foun tains of the great “cep had been broken up.

Crisson’s fine go ^ ml ^» mile below town, is entirely . v* e now <lam of the Hand Mining Company is partially dest.^J® 1 ^ and the Chest&tee bridge, four n" Vl * e * * rom this place, is under water, great fears are entertained that it not stand. The destruction of property is gloat. The Crisson mill cost about $ <X)0, and though all the machinery can be used again, it will cost a large sum P 1 money to rebuild. The loss of Captain Crisson is great indeed, and coming when he had just fairly opened out his mine, and had just began to make it profitable, makes it only the more distressing. The injury to the Hand Gold Mining Com- p'any is but slight, but will delay them in sta ging their mill, which they were pre pare ^ to do on Thursday. Colu "tubus Times: Some of our promi nent me rc hants have received petitions addressed t0 tlie Legislature asking them to immedia re-establish the lien law, as a means of extending credit to our farmers and h ^P in g their financial con dition It is no't known from what source these petitions c.

ESTABLISHED 1850. Florida Affairs. We are surprised that Tom Long hasn’t put in an appearance in Tallahassee. Things are spoiling over there. The Tallahassee Sentinel pretends to think that Stearns wouldn't sell out his party for a seat in the Senate. When was Marcellus converted ? The editor of the Monticello Constitu tion doesn’t know whether there is any truth in the rumor as to a combination to elect Stearns to the Senate. We might be able to give Col. Fildes a clew. General Sanford retired from Tallahas see in order to plant another eucalyptus tree. ltequa is probably of the opinion that a Northern man can’t get along with Southern Republicans, and the virtuous Cheney is as lonesome as a rain crow. Stearns is losing his grip. Why didn't he order out the colored militia the other day and run the Conservative members of the Legislature out of town? Some of the parties aspiring to the Florida Senatorship have mellow names to fire off through the trump of fame. Just think of Hoeg, Bisbee and Requa. The Monticello Constitution has entered upon its second volume, and looks as thrifty as a thoroughbred in -a barley- patch. What’s in the wind now ? J. S. Adams, who was discovered in New Jersey on a memorable occasion by one of the numerous Stanleys connected with the New York Sun. is publishing Democratic articles in the New South. The Jacksonville Union has been mate rially enlarged and improved. The Jacksonville Press, edited by our old friend Dr. Babcock, seems to be meet ing with success. It deserves it at any rate. J. Willis Menard, colored, still writes poetry. The Sentinel is publishing it for him this month. Young Whitney, of St. Augustine, is about to resume the publication of his little paper, the Star. We hope the lad will consider us a subscriber. The late Col. Abijaw Gilbert doesn’t seem to stand the ghost of a chance in Tallahassee. The noble Pur man has become an humble member of the Florida Assembly. The Florida Sentinel has intimated that Purman wouldn’t do to trust except dur ing leap year; but it is impossible to say where that paper got its information. There is one thing about Purman, though: he has never sat down in tho sand and allowed a Supreme Court Judge to bang him around. There is a great rush of visitors to St. Augustine. Twenty acres of land near Palatka sold for twenty-five hundred dollars the other day. It is said that there is a sour orange tree in Marion county from which ten thousand oranges have been gathered in one season. The St. Augustine Yacht Club has or ganized for the season. Mr. L. W. Lanjilon, of Northampton, Mass., died in Jacksonville recently while searching for lodgings. The whooping cranes in Jacksonville are good for worms. The negro policemen in Jacksonville arrest a man merely for criticizing things. The Templetons are playing in Key- West. Members of the church in Live Oak take advantage of the serenity of the Sabbath to wallop negroes with the soft side of a board. The citizens of Suwannee county will meet on the Gtli for the purpose of exam- ing into the financial condition of their county. A row between three colored people in Jefferson county recently resulted in a coroner’s inquest. Stearns has relented so far as to make the Jacksonville Press an official paper. Live Oak Times: M. S. Littlefield, ccmmonly known as “Old Plausible,” was, last Monday, gaily strutting about the railroad platform during the stay of the Tallahassee train. Had it not been for the sudden death of Governor Todd R. Caldwell this “spread eagle” manipu lator of State bonds would, no doubt, now be dressed in a suit of stripped clothes, and busily engaged making shoes for the benefit of the State of North Carolina. Baker county correspondence Jackson ville New South: It has been a mooted question for 1800 years amongst all re ligionists, I believe, if there was a literal hell and a personal devil. I saw, some years ago, in a newspaper, that a priest had located hell three miles under ground in the bowels of the earth. Oh, how he was mistaken! If he had said it was near the city of Brotherly Love, he would have come nearer to it. On Thursday- night, the 14th instant, about 11 o’clock, there came five devils, in the shape of men, to a house occupied by a widow lady and her children, about four miles from Baldwin. She had a daughter about fifteen years old. These devils attempted to murder them by repeated ly shooting into the house with a double- barrel gun aud pistols. Two little boys were sitting up in a shed room, the mother and daughter had just retired to bed. These devils first poured water down the chimney, outed the fire, and barred the door up where the boys were. They then broke in the door of the house, seized the young women and mother, held them and choked them, and three of these devils violated the persons of the young woman and the mother in the same little room, ten by twelve. Oh, helpless women, was there ever such de mons this side of the infernal regions of the damned. They then robbed the hen roost of the last chicken and left in the direction of Baldwin. The old lady went to a justice of the peace next day to get a warrant for them, when the justice said to her that it would take money to have the matter investigated, and as she had none, of course she came back as she wen 4 . However, on Monday evening, jnst four days after, he came and looked her up aud said if she would make an affidavit, he would issue a warrant. I think she made tbe affidavit and identified three white men and one negro. She gave the names in the affidavit of Jordan Dees, Isom Dees and Joseph Dees, white, and Prince Thomas, negro. I have not learn ed what has been dono in the matter. The nam6 of the justice is James Wil son, a justice of African descent. O, this despotic power of appointing offi cers! They should be elected by the people and held responsible. Mr, Editor, is it possible that Duval county, with her heretofore good character, and that every man that ever had a sainted mother, a beloved wife, a doted sister, would not rise in indignation and sweep such fiends from the land. Havana advices state that the exports of all articles from the consular district of Havana to the United States for the year £874 have keen $*20,000,000, of ‘which $7,000,000 were in cigars, leaf and cut tobacco and cigarettes, and $12,250,- 000 in sugars and molasses. Boston is to have a great hen conven tion next week at Music Hall, where, says a Boston cotemporary, “the chatter of a thousand hens will mingle in melodius dissonance in front of—not with—the big organ.” THE MORNING NEWS.

Washington, February 1.—In the Senate, a very large number of petitions were pre sented against tbe restoration of the duty on ten, aud coffee* against the renewal of any internal taxation, aud for tbe repeal of the law of 1872, relieving certain foreign products of the 10 per cent. duty. Re ferred to the Committee on Finance. The first resolution offered in the House, was oue by Mr. Hale, of Maine, to amend the rules bf adopting tho following : Whenever a question is pending before tho House, the bpeakor shall not entertain any motions of a dilatory character, except one motion to adjourn, and one motion to fix tho day to which the House shall ad journ, but the previous question on the en grossment and third reading of the bill or joint resolution shall not be ordered dur ing the first day of its consideration, unless three-fourths of the members present shall second the demand, provided that this rule shall not apply to a House resolution offered iu the morning hour of Monday, aud provided farther that it shall not apply to any proposition to appropriate the money, the credit, or other property of the United States, except the regulor appro priation bills. Mr. Randall, of Pennsylvania, made a point of order which, after discussion, was overruled, and the resolution was referred to tho Committee on Rules. * Iu tho Senate, the Railroad Committee had a long and rather excited ses sion, aud adjourned without action. The proceedings that have transpired give no plausible indication of the result, though the through line from ocean to ocean seems to have the most friends, the argument be ing that feeders will come of their own ac cord. There are many connectiug schemes prevent present, and which may do- feat final, action. It is either Tom Scott, pure and simple, or nothing. SPANISH AFFAIRS. Madrid, February 1.—The Epoca says Cushing arid the Minister of Foreign Affairs have reached an amicable understanding .for the compensation of the families of the Virginius victims. Decrees have been issued permitting the press to discuss the acts of the Ministry, forbidding attacks on royalty and religi *u, and prohibiting the publication of intelli gence which may be serviceable to the Car- lists. Newspapers which have been visited with, the penalty of suspension three times shall bo wholly suppressed for a fourth of fence. FRENCH POLITICS. Paris, February 1.—An amendment passed by a vote of 553 to 552 to the effect that the i’resident shall bo elected by a majority of the Senate aud Chamber of Deputies; that the Presidential terra shall bo seven years, and that the President can be re-elected. Tbe Left are now striving to obtain a favor able vote on the entire constitutional bill, in order to obtain this indirect recognition of the Republic. THE CARLISTS. Madrid, February 1.—A great effort is being made to secure an armistice with the Caiiiists. The Aifomist Concurs insist on the relief of Pampeluna as a first prelimi nary, aud then the maintenance of the statu 5/10'till the submission of the Carlists with or without the consent ot Don Carlos. HEAVY STRIKES. London, February 1.—One hundred and twenty thousand miners are idle by tho lock out in South Wales. Six thousand shriDwrights of New Castle- 011-Tyne have struck. THE JAPAN. London, Fobruary 1.—The Japan burned when oue hundred and fifty miles from Ilong Kong, and is supposed to have foun dered in sixteen fathoms of water. Divers will be sent to save the specie and valuables. ROME AND AUSTRIA. Vienna, February 1.—The Pope has thanked Fraucis Joseph for his considerate application of the Austrian ecclesiastical laws. GARIBALDI. Rome, February 1.—Garibaldi informed tho King that he had not come to Rome with political intentions, but to forward the material welfare of constituents. RELEASED. San Sebastian, February 1.—Tho captain and crew of the Gustave have been released. The Egyptian Ruler’s Royal Gift to Gen. Sherman’s Daughter.—The wed ding gift from the Khedive of Egypt to the daughter of Gen. Sherman reached New York by steamer on Tuesday, and was on private exhibition in the Collec tor's parlor of the Custom House Wednes day afternoon. The present is a parure of diamonds, necklace and eardrops, said to be the most magnificent aud valuable in this country. The necklace is composed of four strands of diamonds, each of which is a brilliant. Not one of them i3 worth less than $1,000. The chain is studded with the gems, and they are set so closely together as to hide the gold. There are so many of them that Deputy Collector Lydecker tired in the count. He counted three hundred and fifty, which is only about half of the whole number. The slrands are joined by ten immense stones, each of which is encircled by smaller g-ms. The one in front is the size of a hickory nut, and is worth $20,000. Pend ant from the front is a festoon of bril liants with five big pear-shaped stones of finest water lustre hanging from it. The ornaments for the ear are single stones equally as large as the rest. The entire set is appraised at from $200,000 to $:;o0.000. The case for the jewels is plain mo rocco, without inscription. As soon as the Secretary of the Treasury orders a free permit for them under the special a> t of Congress they are to be delivered to the Turkish Minister, and by him pre sented to the fair bride on behalf of the Egyptian potentate.—N. T. Sun. Preparing for War. — The maxim quoted by the President when urging an appropriation for big guns in the coast fortifications, “in time of peace prepare for war,” is no doubt wise and prudent. The only question is as to the best means of preparation. Most persons would supj o ;e that it was more impor tant to national strength to consolidate the affections of a people by just Iajvs and impartial treatment, than to put rifled guns on a few forts on the coast. It is more H-.nn probable that these guns would never need to be fired upon a foreign foe, though they might be convenient in knocking down some of onr own seaports. The true way to employ the opportuni tics of peace in preparations for war is to unite the hearts of all sections as they were united in former times. Who be lieves that if this were effected, any nation of the earth or all of them com bined would make war upon the United Suites? Such an effective mode of pro* tecting the country would need no appro priation from the national treasury—only the exercise of common sense and com mon justice in the policy of the govern ment towards all sections.— Baltimore Sun. “How we Gwine to Live Widout Taxin' de Lan’ ? v —The Jackson corres pondent of the Vicksburg Herald, report ing the proceedings of the Mississippi Legislature on Saturday last, gives a speech of a colored Representative, which pithily and logically conveys the darkey idea of the negro to make laws and the white man to pay taxes. “Mr. Speaker,” said he, “de white man owns de lan’, don’t dey ? and don’t we make de laws ? data what I ax yon. Now, Mr. Speaker, if de white folks owns de lan r an* we makes de laws, how we gwine to live widout taxin’ de lan* ? Bat's what I ax yon.* /he CRISIS OF THE DAY. Paautage from Hon. B. H. Hill’* Speech &VAtlanta, (>a.« on January 20. [Atlanta Herald.] It is the darkest chapter in the history of the country which records that the executive justifies a suggestion that citi zens be declared bandits by Presidential proclamation, and tried by court martial in the teeth of the Constitution that ex ecutive has sworn to support, protect and defend. I tell you, it marks the darkest era in American history. You can never comprehend fully its danger or its enor mity. And he goes so far as to say that he has no doubt that if Congress should pass a law, as Sheridan suggests, these troubles would all cease: that is, end troubles by subverting the Constitution Secure peace by destroying liberty! Punish crime by official perjury, through the assassination of constitutional govern ment ! who is the rebel ? Who shows a spirit of defiance to all law, and a reckless disregard of all rights? Sheridan, we are told, is no lawyer; neither is Grant. And here is this great curse of the country, that men are rushing into high positions whose duties they do not understand, and whose responsibilities they do not regard. We have an age of military stateship and civil government absolutely destroyed, and everything in time of peace in absolute dominion to military power. A still more alarming fact is that their monstrous proposition is actually defended aud justified by the leaders of the party, iD Congress and throughout the United States. That lawyers like Morton and Conkling and Edmunds should forget their oath and get up before the people and justify these bold, fearless and despotic propositions passes comprehension. It only shows to what extent the spirit of usurpation has gone, and ought to alarm the American people of the threatening danger to their institutions. WHERE IS THE THING TO END? Think you it will end in Louisiana? My countrymen, you can’t mistake the purpose of all this conduct. It has been manifest from the beginning. It will not stop with Louisiana unless the people now frown it down by an indignation un paralleled in this country. Already a special committee has been appointed to see what further repressive legislation is necessary for the Southern States, and we are told that the committee is now absolutely discussing the proposition of undoing all that has been done; that is unreconstructing reconstruction and re constructing again. Why, you know they said when they commenced recon struction, that we were outside of the law, and the idea is to remand us back to dependence on their power. The very idea is monstrous; it points to the end to which this country under this party is going. It proves as clearly as can be proved that this party never went into this war to preserve the Constitution; that they never went into this war solely to abolish slavery. I tell you they have con ducted this government from the day the Southern people left for the purpose of perpetuating themselves in power, and they are determined to perpetuate them selves in power if they trample upon the Constitution and every State in the United States to accomplish the result WHAT LS RHE PROSPECT OF SUCCESS ? That is the material inquiry for you and me. I am delighted to see that a great many of the more intelligent and pa triotic citizens of the Republican party North have taken this matter in hand. Iu Boston the spirit of liberty is reviving. Tho noble Evarts-liae sp^kon words that ought to commend him to every patriot in the United States. I am glad to sec Republicans coming out against the sub version of the Constitution, for every blow at Louisiana is a blow at every State in this Union. I have some faith that the Northern people, who have been so long the victims of a raging storm of pas sion, are now awakening to their senses, and will see that the miserable party of Constitution haters they have nursed is under the lead of the greatest rebels, and the only rebels who have really caused all our trouble. And yet these men that thus trample upon the Constitution under the solemnity of their oaths, which they take when they take their seats in Con gress, have the effrontery to get up there and in the very same breath with which they justify these enormous violations of the Constitution, talk to Southern men about being rebels. SECESSION WAS A MISTAKE, a terrible mistake; but secession was no crime. [Great Applause.] It violated uo oaths; it trampled upon no individual rights; it dispersed no Legislature ; it throttled no State ; it sought to shed no blood ; it burns no cities ; it invades no homes! Radicalism is no mistake. It is deliberate, intentional, wicked; ever increasing crime; [applause;] it has trampled upon ten thousand oaths to sup port the Constitution. It defied the Union as a fact that it might destroy the Union as a principle, under pretense of reconstructing the States. It has sworn to support the Constitution only to seize upon power to enable it to subvert the Constitution; under pretence of restor ing peace, it has blighted the country with war, poverty and sorrow. RADICALISM HAS BURNED CITIES; it lias dispersed Legislatures; it has robbed the poor, plundered the helpless; punished the innocent, and it has chain ed liberty to the car of tyranny. I ar ralgn radicalism to-night before the bar of this outraged country as the only real, intentional rebel in American history. [Applause.] It is a rebel against the Constitution of our fathers. It is a rebel against the sovereignty of the States. It is a rebel against the domestic tranquility which the Constitution was intended to insure. It is a rebel against every prin ciple of justice, and a rebel against every blessing of liberty. [Tremendous aj>- plause.] WELL NORTHERN PEOPLE SEE IT? Can they wake up to see it ? I believe they can. I believe they will: at least I have some hope of it. It is time for the work to begin. The great final struggle to settle the question whether constitutional liberty on this continent shall be continued or not is to be fought in 187G. Can it be successfully fought at the ballot ? I warn the country now tl at Radicalism will never yield its grasp of power at the bidding of the votes of the people, save that vote amount to a popular revolution. Don’t you imagine, my friends, that this monster against every right is going to yield its morbid appetite for power at the bidding of a bare majority of the people. Never! never! That is what it is now preparing for, aud I tell you the same power that throttled Louisiana will throttle the elec toral college of those States and keep the government in their hands, notwithstand ing the ballot, and all under the color of the law, too. [Laughter and applause]. I wont the mind of the American people directed to one inquiry; it is a great in quiry, a glorious inquiry! Oh! I look forward to the discussion with real rap ture ! WHO, IN AMERICAN HISTORY, IS A REBEL ? Is it a man who tramples upon the Constitution, or a man who simply re sents such infidelity by seeking to get away from such a party ? To what ex tent this rebel power may go in defying the will of the people no one can say. Look what it has done in Louisiana. Look at the report of the Congressional Committee. Stores and property selling for taxes! In the interior property is actually offered for taxes, and that amount cannot be had. The people impoverished, the Legislature dispersed, the State power less; in the interior counties the com mittee tells us the only white Republicans are office-holders, and in several instances there is not a single Republican but one family, and they all hold offices! That is why they are Radicals; for the same reason that wrongs to others so they get it. That is the condition of Louisiana. Look at yonr prostrate sister, and see what Geor gia has ^escaped. Georgia narrowly es caped in 1871 the same fate that over took Louisiana in 1872, and again the other d^y. It could have been done easier in Georgia, for in Louisiana Gov. Warmoth was opposed to it; therefore they resorted to Durell; but in Georgia in 1871. the then so-called Governor was not only willing, but exceedingly anxious to enter upon the work. Do you think Georgia was saved by accident? Such results are never attained by accident. Was she saved by the ballot ? Did not Louisiana have the ballot also in 1872 ? Does not the committee say she elected a majority in the House of Representatives again in 1874, and yet, where is she now? The public man in America who has not understood from the beginning that the whole point and power as well as danger of Radical ism lies in the fact that they expect to perpetuate their power by force and in spite of the ballot-box, has been a stupid public man, and not fit to be a public counselor. [Applause.] Now, Georgia was saved in 1871 by keeping off the heavy hand of Federal interference. How it was done is not now proper time to say. Some have said sneeringly that said I did it. I never said I did it, but I say one thing, my slanderers did not do it. [Laughter and applause. ] I will not stop to tell what part I acted, but through out the day of trouble my ears were salated by but one sound from the rear, and that was SLANDER AND CALUMNY FROM THE PEOPLE I SERVED. [cheers and applause.] But let that pass; you shall have that history in due time. At all events Georgia was saved by exact ly the reverse process by which Louis iana was lost. Louisiana was lost by Federal interference, and Georgia was saved by Federal non-interference. I will say this much, I was actuated by no selfish purpose, and equally was not in timidated by the war upon me. I had nothing in view but the rescue of my na tive State from the domination of Radi calisin. HOW GRANT CAME TO BE SO KIND, and I admit he was kind, is the question you are some day to understand. Fellow-citizens, I look to the contest of 1876 not only as the most important that ever occurred in American history, but as the most important in the history of the world; for if the people of the coun try can not be aroused to give an over whelming vote against this Republican party, it will perpetuate itself in power in the United States by precisely the same means as the President has taken in Louisiana, and the people will be powerless to prevent-it except they go to war. [Applause.] If we fail with the ballot-box in 1876 by reason of force, a startling question will present itself to the American people. I trust we will not fail; I hope the Northern people have had a sufficient subsidence of passion to see the question fairly. I think they will; I trust the}' will. The indications are in cur favor. In truth, the majority of the North were always in favor of the Con stitution. They were in favor of constitutional government, they were in favor of con stitutional liberty, but they have been carried away by the raging storm of pas sion, and, by the unfortunate secession of the South, taken possession of by fa natical leaders. Led on under the misera ble delusion that they were preserving the Union, and keeping down rebellion, they have been aiding and rewarding the only rebels in America in the work of and CARRION GROWS LXKR CARRION, thay care not what may be the DESTROYING THE CONSTITUTION. Thev» Is the poidt; they must now be able to see it; if they will still be blind. If poor Louisiana cannot teach them that this party means the destruction of con stitutional government on this continent, then, indeed, the great question, and.the only question behind for their thought is the one that must be propounded, and from ^hich there is no escape. The question is, is the Constitution of onr fa thers worth blood ? Will you have war or despotism ? WILL YOU HAVE BLOOD OR EMPIRE? That is the question. If you appeal to the ballot-box, it w’ill fail unless the peo ple rally by overwhelming majority, such as in the majesty f»f its irresistible power shall sweep rebellion from the offices of the government by the very breath of its indignation. Nothing else can save it; nothing else will save it. The next Con gress of the United States is in import ance over every preceding Congress from the adoption of the Constitution to the present time. The debates of the next Congress must give shape to the Presi dential election. They should be wise, burning, and patriotic, and in the wisdom of those debates the Northern people must receive enlightened intelligence that will enable them to rise and save the liberties of the country. To this dread ful issue I have looked with earnest ness for years. I tell you, my friends, there is NO PEACE FOB TIIIS COUNTRY UNTIL RADI CALISM IS CRUSHED; not only crushed but despised; not only despised but made fnfamous forever throughout America. [Tumultuous ap plause and cheers.] But oh, how my heart in this trying hour forgives all the strife of the past, and goes out with pa triotic affection to every Northern man who wakes to the reality of the situation, and says that at last he has discovered that the only true friend of the Union is the friend of the Constitution. [Ap plause.] What an occasion for us. What shall we, of the South, do? We are powerless in one sense, but there is much we can do. Let us now, everywhere in the South, habitually speak of the Con stitution and the Union under it with that old reverence and love that distin guished us in the days that are past and gone. I say to-night, there was not a single hour in American history when the Southern heart was not true to that Constitution. [Applause.] When the signal of war was given in Massachusetts in the first revolution, Georgia was one of the first to march to the fight of Mas sachusetts for the liberties of us all. CONCLUSION. If we must have war—if we can not preserve this Constitution and constitu tional government by the ballot—if force is to defeat the ballot—if the war must come—God forbid that it should come— but if it must come—if folly, wickedness —if inordinate love of power shall de cree that America must save her Consti tution by blood, let it come. I am ready. [Enthusiastic applause and cheering.] But let one thing be distinctly under stood, that if another war should come, we of the South will rally under the old flag of our fathers. [Wild applause.] It always was our flag. We were never faithless to it, and our enemies were nev er faithful to it. [Applause.] The Struggle In Congress. Matters iu Congress indicate the proba bility of a violent and disorderly struggle between the majority and minority towards the close of the session. Thirty working days only of the session remain, and while little has been done, a great deal that the majority would like to do remains to be done. The Louisiana ques tion has not been touched: the civil rights bill has not been taken from the Speaker’s table in the House: the proposed consti tutional amendment changing the method of choosing Presidents has but begun to be considered; the scheme for increasing the revenues so urgently pressed by the President has not yet emerged from the hands of the committee; the extraordi nary demand of the President for larger sStpl £aUis.

It is evident that the majority do not know what to do with several of these questions; the Louisiana business alone is a puzzle they cannot solve, and the additional taxation demanded by the President is something they are afraid of. It is evident, also, that the minority are determined that some of these questions shall not be disposed of by this Congress if they can prevent it; it is even possible that, in the inevitable contest which seems to be approaching, the minority may attempt to defeat the appropriation bills and thus force the necessity for a called session of the new Congress. The unsuccessful attempt made on Monday to pass a gag law against the minority in the Honse, and the project, boldly sug gested by some of the Republicans, of j having this Congress pass appropriations for two years, so as to deprive the next House of its legitimate control over the t xpenditures of the government, clearly indicate the relations between the ma jority and the minority. The administration is evidently uneasy; when the present Congress adjourns its party in the House will be gone and it will be at the mercy of a pitiless and ex asperated Democratic majority from which it can expect no favors; and this to a Pres dent that for six years has been permitted to act much according to his own will is a very disagreeable prospect. There is no telling what the Republicans would do if they could hold together; in deed, when we see such a man as Senator Sherman of Ohio openly approving the conduct of the troops in breaking up the Louisiana Legislature, there is no telling what Congressional violence they may attempt before the close of the present session. It need not surprise us, there fore, to see a struggle begin between a desperate majority bent on passing its measures under whip and spur, and a fierce minority intent on defeating these measures by dilatory motions and filibus tering devices.—St. Louis Republican.

Tr ., r non-ram - mnnin .n iu the city of Savannah,on the FIRST Tl'E>DAYi PATENT PORTABLt CIRCULAR Tracy had just asked witness a question and received an answer about this matter, when business was interrupted by an episode. A messenger handed a Dote to Fullerton, of Tilton’s counsel, who handed to Evarts, of Beecher’s counsel, when a few words of conversation took place, and both lawyers simultaneously told him that some one at the door desired his presence. He left his chair and walked rapidly to the door, which he passed through, when Fullerton addressed the court, saying that the sudden and unex pected death of Mr. Moulton's mother, made his absence necessary, and should cause the postponement of any farther cross-examination. The Judge uttered an exclamation of surprise, and Mr. Evaits hoped the Court would accede to Mr. Fullerton’s request, which Judge NeiLson at once expressed his readiness to do. This action had hardly been taken when Moulton walked again rapidly into Court, stood before the Judge and said: lour Honor, I have just learned of my mother’s death, but I will finish this ex amination now, if it won't be too long, before I go.” His emotions were evidently strong, and his eyes were filled with tears, yet his voice was clear and but slightly tremulous. The feelings of all present were touched, and Mr. Beecher looked with a sympathetic face upon his accuser. The judge told him that his further testi mony would be deferred, but witness and F ullerton exchanged a few words, when the latter rose, saying he had referred the request to the witness, and he himself thought it desirable that private grief should give way to public duty. lie has consented, and we will finish this exam ination. Upon this, Moulton again stepped up to the witness chair. I learn that his brother-in-law, who was in ante-room, had brought the news, but it was there communicated to him by Mr. Morris, who said: “Frank, I’ve bad news for you; you must be prepared for the worst: your mother is dead.” “My God, is it true; my mother ?” His emo tions were strong, but he added: “Sam, I must go on with this cross-examination. It's my first duty now.” He moved to ward the court room, repeating, “I must finish this cross-examination; this I must do the first thing." It appears that his mother, whose husband is still living, died in New York, at an early hour in the moruing. after a few days’ illness, which resulted in pneumonia, but the news had been kept from him till 1 oon. The Senate Naval Committee on Thurs day heard the Hon.
