A lively scene was witnessed in the House of Commons yesterday. On the debate on Lord Hartiugtou’* resolution, Mr. Robert Lo*e ( Liberal) accused the government of ii-ting a falsehood. Sir Stafford North cole rose to a point of order, claiming that this language w as unparliamentary. TheSpeaki ruled that as it was not aimed at a memtx of the government it was in order. M Lowe repeated the remark, and the Speak( ruled him out of order. He then withdrew the expression.

Tin- State Democratic Convention of South (. arolina tuet yesterday at Columbia, adopted a platform pledging justice and protection in civil rights to all citizens with out regard to race, color or previous condi tion; strongly urges the encouragement of immigration to the State; calls upon Con- gres* to so act as to ifuiet the revenue trou bles in the upper part of the Slate; quests amnesty to illicit distillers, and especially denounces independent tnov> ments and a fusion with Radices. The platform and a resolution endorsing Gov. liamptou and the present State officials and nominating them for re-election were adopt ed by a rising vote amid much enthusiasm. (Quarantine regulations against New Or leans and Vicksburg are being rigidly en forced in Memphis. Resolutions have been adopted by the Board of Health providing for the appointment of three agents to no- tifv (tassengers coming from New Orleans that they will not be permitted be enter the city, and that no passengers or baggage from New (Means or Vicksburg shall enter Mem phis until further notice. The Rev. Dr. Sc hall is visiting in I’tah. He says that some of the unbe Hovers there regard Morraonism as steadi ly increasing and consolidating, while others see disintegration and growing in fidelity. He thinks that most Mormons are living in monogamy, although they hold to the doctrine of polygamy. “The Mormons," he says, "dress and look like other people, and present the aspect of an industrious, temperate and pros- perous community. I have seen a* healthy children here as auywhere else. The Territory is well governed and free from debt, which is an exceptional re ts ujimendat ion. Even a bad religion in politics seems to be better than none." The following is Dr. SchafTs prophecy as to Mormonism: “It has been nursed into |M»wcr by cruel persecution, and the tire of. fanaticism and material self interest may keep it up for a considera ble time; but it can scarcely be expected that as a religious and polygamous sys tem it will be aide to resist much longer the pressure of the surrounding civiliza tiou and churches." Kearney, the California Moses of the Communists, arrived in Boston on Sun day. and was received with the curiosity and interest which his advent would naturally excite among the classes who stand ready to hail him as a deliverer from “the oppression of capital." His .*l»eech to the crowd which waited upon him at the hotel is said to have been en tirely characteristic of the man—coarse, violent, and profane. The workingmen of Massachusetts have not as yet com mitted themselves to an unqualified in dorsement of Kearney and Kcarneyism, but seem disposed to wait and form their own opinion of the man and his mission lie fore dropping their tools and organiz ing imposing demonstrations in his honor. “The OrruM " It is not uncommon to see in the In dependent organs of this and other States remarks in the nature of sneers at "the organized." Such remarks are not only ungrateful, but in very bad taste. What is it that is meant by the term "theorganized?" Simply the Democratic party, and we would infer from the re marks of these organs that they consid ered it unpatriotic and blameworthy to be connected with the only organization to which we are this day indebted for freedom of speech and the blessings of home rule in the South. Suppose that in the days of carpet-bag rule in Georgia, when alien enemies and political adventurers with United States bayonets and venal United States Marshals at their backs carried mat tens with a high hand, the Democratic party had not been “organized?’’ Sup pose when these men plundered the Treasury and recklessly involved the tax payers of our State in debt in order that they might fill their carpet-lmgs with ill- gotten gains and retire to their Northern homes Hushed with wealth wrung from the hard earnings of our people. Jicre had not been union and harmony in Democratic ranks? Sup pose that then the disorganization and independence, falsely so-called, w hich these organs now so strenuously advocate, had prevailed in the ranks of the people of the State, and continued to the present day; what would be our condition now? Tbe answer is plain. >ur enemies and plunderers would still be holding high carnival amongst us. Our people would still be hopelessly in volved in the toils ^f poverty and debt, our State would still be. in all probability, the plaything and prey of unprincipled Radical adventurers and thieves. Instead of having enjoyed for many years the blessings of freedom and prosperity, we would be even now- ground down to the dust, and instead of our State bonds commanding a premium, would be liankrupt and our credit would be hopelessly destroyed. Yet it is the Democratic party which checked and •ffectually warded off these curses, and in lieu thereof has given us peace.prosperity, freedom and happiness which these or- and their "independent" leaders Ueeringty allude to as "the organized." In the dark days of carpet-bag plunder and bayonet rule, to which we have al luded. party organization was not only recognized, but was acknowledged to be a necessity as a means of self-preserva tion. Those who imagine that because Georgia is now strongly Demo- cratic that necessity no longer exists, are greatly mistaken. A great deal de pends upon the political complexion of the next House. The Radicals are mak ing strenuous efforts to capture it, and if they should succeed, it will be their first step towards establishing a one man pow er under Grant. They know that Grant, as a Presidential candidate, cannot Ije elected by the people. They trust, however, that with three tickets in the field—the Democrats, the Radical*, and the Nationals — the election will be thrown into the House, and if that House lie Radical. Grant will be the next and in all probability the last President of the United States. It does not require a mind of very Trial of Steam Road Wagons DV TELEGRAPH. A year or two ago the Wisconsin 1 u. Legislature offered a prize of ten thou sand dollars for a perfect steam w agon for general agricultural and hauling purposes, to be able to stand such tests as a board of three commissioners should propose. Among other things, the con testing machines are to make a two hundred mile trip along the country roads of tbe State, due north and south, haul a heavy wagon behind them, able to plow, run threshing machines, and perforin other feats such as the genuity or wisdom of the commissioners might suggest The commission was duly appointed, and met at Green Bay, Wis., on the 15th ult. There were but two entries, the “Oshkosh." by Sc homer A Farrand, of Oshkosh, and the “Green Bay.” by Cow lea Bros., of East Green Bay. The latter machine met with several accidents, which detained it the road, but the former made the trial trip according to the conditions named, traversing the distance between Fort Howard and Madison, two hundred and one miles, in thirty-three hours, twenty- seven seconds, or six hours less than the time required by the specifications, which called for an average speed of five miles an hour. At various points along the line, however, it attained a much greater •peed, in one instance making twenty-one miles in two hours ten minutes, and the Oshkosh race course doing a mile 4 :•&’>. At Fort Atkinson it was attached to a gang of two plows, and turned over a goodly portion of a two acre field. The machine weighs 4,800 pounds: with wa ter and coal for eight miles, C.600 pounds, and hauled throughout a wagon weighing 3,500 pounds. The Albany (N. Y.) Argut says the friends of Hayes are easily pleased. Major Burke's testimony conclusively proves that Hayes became President after an understanding had been reached that he would abandon Packard and sustain Nicholls. Tbe atrocity of such a pro ceeding is not capable of exaggeration. If Mr. Hayes is rightful President then Mr. Packard is rightful Governor. The fact that one is in office and the other not, is all that is needed to convict those who apoloifize for this state of things, of deliberate support for infamous crimes. We care not who the parties to the compact are. It was the duty of every man to sustain the rightful claimants to the extent of his power. When Republican leaders, in consideration of the inauguration of Hayes, agreed to abandon Packard, they surrendered all pretense that Hayes had any rightful claim to the office of President. The crime of Hayes consists in clinging to his stolen office while deserting Packard. He thus effectually clouds his own title, and still has the audacity to assume to act as President of the United Slates. He adopted and acted upon the pledges made in his behalf. He thus became the principal in an infamous conspiracy, for which he deserves the severest penalties of the law. deep research to appreciate the necessity of jiarty unity and harmony under these circumstances. There will lie needed in the lower house of the forty-sixth Con gress, to lie chosen this fa-1, of pure, un compromising Democrats—men under no obligation to Radicals for their elec tion, and who can, therefore, under all circumstances, be relied on to vote for and uphold Democratic meas ures. Now, as much as ever, there fore. party unity, which means party strength, should be tin- one thing to be determined on. Let the voters of this State and the South at large, when ever they read sneers and jeers at "the organized" or “the Bourbon Demo cracy." ponder seriously over these things. Your “Independent" would 4u ! reality sacrifice the liest interests of | State and party to his selfish and ambiti ous ends and aims* Independentism is nothing more nor less than Radicalism in disguise. A Manual of Georgia. We have received a copy of a pamphlet bearing the above title, prepared by Dr. T. P. Janes, Commissioner of Agricul ture for the State. It is divided into two parts. Part 1 gives in detail the physical aspect of the Slate, its geographical situation, its ter ritorial extent, its different soils and pro ductions, its educational facilities, its timber resources, its metal and mineral ealth, and indeed everything connected itl* the facilities and inducements which it can offer to immigrants. Part II. contains the sectional divisions and shows die distinctive features of tbe various portions of Georgia, together with statistical facts of public interest in relation to the several counties of the State. It is. in a word, a compendium of valuable and exhaustive information to tbe immigrant seeking a home in our midst, as well as to the capitalist who may be seeking for a profitable field for investment. Dr. Janes will furnish a copy of this manual to any one desiring it, who will address him in Atlanta, and enclose a three cent postage stamp to pay for its transmission by mail. | A New Species op Theft. —A strange i case was recently tried in a court in San Francisco, resulting in as strange verdict Tbe defendant, who was ! money broker, had been accustomed to draw checks on the Anglo Californian Bank of San Francisco, and to use them in his business, having first procured their certification by the cashier of the bank. In this case the defendant repre sented to the cashier that he knew where he could purchase twenty thousand dol lars in silver, and was told by tbe latter to make the purchase. The defendant then drew his check on the bank, which the cashier certified, there being no funds, however, in the bank to the credit of the former. The defendant, instead of buying silver, used the check to purchase currency, and subsequently left the State. The bank had him ar rested on the charge of stealing the check, claiming that the certification of it made it the property of the bank, and the jury upon this ground found the de fendant guilty of larceny. A new trial has been granted, however, the Judge holding that the act of certifying a check could in no way give the bank any legal title to it. Tbe new antiseptic mode is being tried at the Alexian Brothers’ Hospital in Chicago, with astonishing results. While u limb is Iteing amputated a spray atomizer throws a stream of a solution of curliolic acid into the wound, and this makes the operation perfectly painless. No chloroform or ether is required, and it is said the wound heals very readily. "What shall we do with our surplus wheat crop?" is the problem now agita ting the minds of the Western farmers. This season's harvest is the richest known in a long series of years, and the United States will have 150,000,000 bushels to spare for exportation. “Landaulet” Williams is satisfied that Grant can obtain more support in the South than any other Republican. He thinks upon a pinch he could carry Lou isiana, South Carolina and Florida. Doubtless he can do so if he is aided by the returning board machinery. The third termers are getting very ner vous at the prominence of Grant as a candidate for 1880. They know very well that the surest way of defeating the possibility of making him a candidate is to keep on talking about him. The con sequence is that tbe wise and prudent old bell-weathers, such as Hamilton Fish and Z. Chandler, are hastening to have themselves interviewed in order to say that Grant would not, under any circum stances, allow himself to again tie a can didate in 1880. They take that opportu nity, however, of saying what a good mun Grant is, what a plain, simple heart ed man, how unambitious, how grand are bis talents, bow patriotic, how selfish, and how much he longs for the retirement of a simple farm life—and all those other nice third term traits of char acter. One wing of the Potter Committee met in New York on Monday afternoon, and examined ex Governor Palmer, of Illinois, who visited Louisiana in No vember, 1878, to keep watch over Demo cratic interests. The pith of his evidence goes to show that bushels of affidavits could have been procured from Radical politicians in Louisiana by the judicious expenditure of legal tender. As the Democrats declined to purchase, it is but fair to infer that their opponents adopted a different course. The committee also learned that Eliza Pinkston has under gone a change of conviction. Some body has evidently persuaded her of the error of her ways, and she now swears herself back to ber original sanguinary story. The evidence so far given by the Re publican “visiting statesmen" is so ex actly harmonious both in tbe main and in detail—not a single contradiction, how ever minute, l»eing discernible—as to rea sonably lead to one of two findings, viz.: that it was conceitedly arranged before delivery, or the “visiting statesmen," when in New Orleans, were imposed upon by the local Republican managers. The latter finding, however, unjustly convicts the “visiting statesmen" of ex ceeding simplicity. It looks very much as if the G&rfields and Hales make wit nesses of the same kind as the Jenkses. Honesty and veracity seem not to dwell in them. General J. Gorgas. late of the Univer sity of the South, at Sew&nee, Tennessee, has been elected President of the Univer sity of Alabama, at Tuscaloosa. General Gorgas will be remembered in the South generally, and particularly in Richmond, as the accomplished Chief of Ordnance of the Confederate State*. Though a Pennsylvanian by birth, he, like Adju tant General Cooper, preferred to suffer affliction with the South rather thar to enjoy office and honor at the expense of his conscience. We learn that the Hon. Hinton Rowan Helper, author of the "Impenu- ing Crisis," and formerly Minister to South America, will shortly issue from the press a work entitled “A New Era for the South; Her Struggles, Past and Present.” The book, like everything else which Mr. Helper has written, is expected to create t sensation. The rapid increase of population in Texas renders it highly probable that a division will be called for before many years. The population in 1870 was 818,- and the delegation in the House of Representative is now but six. A new census will increase the representation to ten, and perhaps twelve. There is no doubt about the magnitude and growing grandeur of Texas. The Baltimore Ga zette thinks if the State isn't halved or quartered one of these days it may be impossible to curb tbe ambition of its statesmen, and we may have another Aaron Burr setting up an empire out there and defying the whole country to upset him. THE GAINESVILLE CONTENTION. Tkirty-Thrw* Ballots Take* with no Special Telegram to the Homing Sews Gxixestillx. Ga., August 1.—The Demo cratic Convection to nominate a candidate for Congress from the Ninth district met here to-day. Major John Hockenhull. Chairman of the District Committee, called the convention to order at ten o'clock. It organized promptly by the election of Robert White, of Jackson, as President, and B. J. Davis and W. S. Erwin as Secretaries. The Committee on Credentials reported that all the delegates present were entitled to seats, partial delegations to be allowed to cast the entire vote of their counties. Every county was represented. The two- thirds rule was adopted with no opposition. Sixty-six votes were found to be In the con vention, which then adjourned to two o'clock. After again assembling. Judge Sutton, of Habersham, nominated H. H. Carlton, of Athens, which nomination was seconded by Mr. Rucker, of Clarke. Doctor Star, of White, nominated Hon. Hiram P. Bell. Thirty-three ballots were had. Bell the first and second received forty votes and on the last thirty-seven. Carlton on the first received twenty six votes; on the last twenty-nine. Bell's highest vote Was forty, lowest thirty-five. Carlton’s highest vote *as thirty-one, lowest twenty-six. On the twenty-fourth ballot Mr. Andrews, of Morgan, nominated Mr. Foster, of Mor gan, who received four votes, when his name was withdrawn. At five o’clock the conven tion adjourned until eight a. m. to-morrow. The delegates are earnest but qniet. It Is thought impossible to nominate either Bell or Carlton. The others mentioned are Price, of Lumpkin, Billups and Butler, of Morgan, who, it is thought probable, will be nominated to-morrow. lot Adrtrtisrafntj. ORAND Family Excursion button Kins.

Havana, August I.—The Provincial Cuban Committee, composed of prominent Cubans, gave a grand banquet last night at the Tocou Theatre in honor of General Martinez Campos and in celebration of peace. On the nieht of the 30th of July a heavy urthwest storm prevailed at Batabano, in tbe southwestern part of the island. Nine vessels are reported lost and six ashore. These are undoubtedly coasters.

Muzzarelli, some time since rented an abandoned brewery Hoboken, New Jersey, and entered into the artificial culture of mushrooms. He has spent three thousand dollars in perfecting his machinery, and keeps his process of production entirely secret. The products are large milky disks, eigbing in some instances five or six ounces each, and averaging fifteen or enty to the pound. M. Muzzarelli has already been able to raise one hundred and fifty pounds per day, and finds a ready sale for them at the hotels and res taurants, receiving sixty cents per pound summer and eighty cents in winter. The Syracuse correspondent of the World declares that the National Green back Labor Convention “was sold out ither to John Kelly and Tammany Hall to New York's ‘favorite son,’ Roscoc Conkling. ” He cites many suspicious facts in proof of his assertion and makes out a case that is rather more than plausible. It seems to be a fact that third party movements are invariably sold out by their leaders at some point their progress. In most cases, they probably organized for that purpose schemers who are gifted with a faculty of reaching the ears of the un sophisticated with glib talk of the wrongs of workingmen, etc., etc. From a comparison of the internal revenue receipts for the fiscal year end ing June 30th, 1878, with those of the previous year, it appears that the de crease in revenue was $7,905,884 34, of which $7,044,758 28 was from a decreas ed production of liquors. There was an increase in jibe consumption of cigars and cigarettes, amounting to 105,000.000 of the former and 16,000,000 of the lat ter. There was a falling off of 99,000 pounds in the use of snuff; also, a de crease of over 7,000,000 pounds in the consumption of chewing tobacco.
