The California Democratic Convention,

was finally restored. A telegram from
Mr. Glenn, accepting the nomina
tion as Governor was read. The resolution
that occasioned the trouble was then adopt
ed amidst cheers and confusion by a vote of
193 to 148. Levi Chase, of San Diego, was
nominated Lieutenant Governor on the first
ballot; W. J. Tluneu, of Trinity, by accla
mation, as Secretary of State. The conven
tion then adjourned until yesterday, when

and so far the mortality from febrile
complaints has been marvelously small.

precautions of the Board of Health, and
the ceaseless exertions of the Sanitary
Association almost render an epidemic
this year an impossibility.
The Murphy-Hill Matter.
The Atlanta CorutUuti&n discredits the
report mentioned by our Washington
correspondent that Messrs. HOI and
Stephens, having become reconciled to
each other through the intervention of a
mutual friend, are to unite in an effort
to induce the State Legislature to reject
the majority report of the committee of
investigation in the Murphy case, and
adopt the minority report The Consti
tution says:
“That Mr. Stephens should be ready
to fall into line with Mr. Hill on this
matter, when it is known that he has
uttered sentiments directly the reverse,
is pressing too much on the reputation
of a statesman who is proverbially cau
tious. We have never believed that Mr.
Hill would ask the Legi&Iature to do any
thing in connection with this matter.
He became satisfied at the last session
that the Legislature would adopt the
majority report, and he will not therefore
renew the contest before the present ses
sion. We are, in fact, convinced that
he will abandon the case because he
not satisfied with it as it stands. We
hope, however, that the Legislature will
not permit the investigation to be
dropped without taking such action as
justice dictates. If Mr. Hill has magni
fied an alleged private wrong into a pub
lic wrong, let that be established, and let
the blame and the condemnation'which
the facts justify fall in the right places.
The public good demands that there be
no suppression of the truth in this notori
ous case.”
Mr. Hill publishes a letter in the At
lanta Dispatch in which, alluding to the
report that he was to appear before the
General Assembly in connection with
what he calls the “Murphy-Colquitt
matter,” he says: “From the beginning
of this investigation I have declared in
every form that I would not under any
circumstances act the part of prosecutor
of any one. Neither time, inclination or
propriety would permit me to do so.”
From this we infer that it is not
the intention of Mr. Hill to appear
before the Legislature in person to press
the rejection of the majority report and
the adoption of the minority report of
the investigating committee. But as he
in the same letter reiterates and “reaf
firms with increased emphasis all the
statements” contained in his circular ad
dress of January last, and expresses the
hope that in disposing of the Murphy
case “the Legislature will not attempt
under any pressure to commit the State
or the Democratic party of Georgia to the
justification, excuse or palliation of
what the undisputed facta make a
case of unmitigated corruption,” it is
clear that Mr. Hill is “not satis
fied with the case as it stands,” and
that though he may not assume the role
of “prosecutor of any one,” his utmost
influence and that of his friends will be
exerted to reverse the verdict of the
majority of the investigating committee.
Mr. Hill admits that “propriety” for
bids his appearing as prosecutor before
the Legislature. It would seem that the
same sense of propriety, if it did not
prevent him from making the original
charge of corruption, should deter him
now from attempting to inlluence the
decision of the Legislature. All the
“indisputable facts” of the case have
been thoroughly investigated, and Mr.
Hill is sustained by neither
the majority nor the minority re
port of the investigating committee.
Under these circumstances it would
seem that Mr. Hill might safely leave the
matter in the discretion of the General
Assembly, who have the honor of the
State and of the Democratic party and
the principles of right and justice quite
as much at heart as himself.
TELEGRAPH.
the Greenville (S. C.) Setee, has been on
the whole seasonable and fruitful. Sea
sonable because it is necessary to make
up the issues a year in advance of the
great contest of 1880; and it has been
fruitful of harmony in the Democratic
ranks, in placing before the people the
two great political parties and the leaders
of the two parties in their true light.
The people will be prepared to vote uu-
derstandingly upon the one great ques
tion before the country, viz.: the right of
free elections without interference of
United States marshals or supervisors,
or of United States troops at the polls or
at the counting and publishing the popu
lar vote in the manner prescribed by the
laws of the States. The extra session
shows that there is no longer any sec
tlonal question to disturb the perfect
union of all the States—that not
withstanding the efforts of the Radi
cals to disparage the South, the
Southern Senators and Representatives
in Congress arc solidly united with
Northern Democrats to preserve and de
fend the rights of the people under a
strict construction of the Constitution.
The extra session, notwithstanding all
the bitterness of feciing (Jhgendered be
tween individual members, has done
much to re-establish the Union, on the
basis of purely constitutional government,
which clearly defines the respective pow
ers of the Judicial, Legislative and
Executive Departments. The effort to
employ the army at elections and to in
crease and to centralize the power of
the government in the hands of the
Executive, has been the disturbing ele
ment since the war. This abuse of
power has been exposed by the Demo
crats in extra session, and the people are
united and will sustain the action of
Congress.

GATION TO ROME.
The “Fourth” In Upper Georgia.
Air. Henry Wutterson has published in
the Courier-Journal a telegraphic corre
spondence had between the Washington
correspondent of the Cincinnati and
Philadelphia Enquirers, respectively,
touching their statement that he had pur
sued Mr. Conkiing with a dinner invita
tion which Air. Conkiing was forced to
repel with scorn and insult. Mr. Pain
ter, of the Philadelphia paper, having
offered to give up the authorship of the
statement if Air. Walterson would make
deposition that it was Dot true, Air. Wat-
tersou says; “I have made a courteous
demand for the authorship of a report
intended to injure me, and extensively
Circulated by you. The report was
infamous and unfounded. If it was fab
ricated by you out of whole cloth yon
arc the scoundrel; if you got it of Air.
Conkiing he is the scoundrel. I have
nothing left me but to denounce it and its
author, leaving you to get out of the re
sponsibility.”
A New Departure in Life Insurance.
A New York special dispatch i
there Is much excitement among the va
rious insurance companies over the ad
vance step of the Equitable Life Assu
ranee Company, by which it makes its
policies incontestable after three years
from their date, and gives each ordinary
policy a definite surrender value in paid-
up assurance, in case the policy is for
feited after three years from its date, and
giving to each Tontine policy a definite
surrender value in cash in case of with
drawal at the end of the Tontine period.
Air. Henry B. Hyde, the President of the
company, who has just returned from a
trip abroad, says that he concluded, after
ascertaining the results of the greater
liberality shown by some of the best Eng
lish companies, that bis company could
well afford to make the concessions it
bis decided upon, and, os an after
thought, it determined to give to all old
policy holders the same benefits as to
the new after three years from the dates
of their policies.
This action, added to the fact that the
Equitable has been the only company to
pay the insurance on the life of the late
Col. Dwight, prompts the other compa
nies to take some action to offset the
prestige thus obtained. There was an
informal conference of insurance Presi
deuts at a down town office, at
which the general sentiment was that
the other companies, unless they had a
large reserve, could not follow in the
footsteps of the Equitable.
Invasion bv British Indians.—The
Interior Department has information
from Agent Lincoln at the Gros Ventre
Agency, Alontana, under date of Jane
lGth, that British Indians in large num
bers have crossed the border; that they
are destroying the buffaloes upon which
the Gros Ventres, Assinaboines, etc.,
depend largely for their food; that skir
mishes have occurred between our own
and the foreign Indians with loss of life
on both sides, and that the British In
dians arc well armed and arc driving the
American Indians before them, the latter
being in a panic and desiring to cross
the Alissouri river. Fifty lodges of
British Indians and one hundred lodge;
of British half-breeds are mentioned as
being near the post. The information
has been'referred to the War and State
Departments, in order that the proper
actiou may be taken in the premises.
Four suicides were reported in the
New York papers of Tuesday morning.
Two arose from betrayed and disappoint
ed affection; one appears to have origi
nated in insanity, and the fourth was
prompted by pecuniary troubles. Three
these unfortunates were males and the
other a female. Remarking upon these
cases 'of self-destruction, the Port says;
Tito miserable phase of desperattyn
and guilt upon which the community
has entered is thus exemplified day otter
day by fresh horrors and new proofs of
the infiucnce of an age of materialism
and self-indulgence upon habits and
character. It would be a grateful relief
record a turn in the dismal tide, but
unhappily as yet there are np signs of it.”
A writer in the London lK«i esti
mates that no less than $3,000,000,000 of
British capital arc now invested in In
dia, He says: “India is the spoils of
our victorious arms, and we mean to re
main there because it is good for our
own people to do so and infinitely to the
advantage of the natives of the country
that we should.”
The Baltimore Sun notices the “singu
lar fact” that in the House the passage
of the bill putting quinine on the free
list was opposed by Pennsylvania mem
bers, the two houses which had the mo
nopoly of quinine manufacture being
located in Philadelphia In these days
of Radical corruption and monopoly such
facts are not very singular.
The New York Sun in a double-leaded
editorial paragraph, says it feels author
ized to announce as unqualifiedly false a
"widely circulated story” to the effect
-that Mrs. Cockling, wife of Senator
Hoscoe Conkiing, had instituted a suit
/or divorce.
Gen. G. W. C. Lee, upon whom the

From Europe comes the cable news of
a new and wholly unprecedented visita
tion, in the shape of a “butterfly plague’
in France. Vast swarms of butterflies
are covering southern and central France.
They first appeared ia Italy, and recently
the Alarseilles coast was covcral with
them. A cloud of white and yellow
butterflies passed, the same day, near
Alontelima station, their passage occupy
ing fifty minutes, while stragglers fol
lowed for another half hour. The in
vasion has extended as far northward as
Alsace. At Angus there was a swarm
estimated at twenty thousand, which,
after passing over the public walks,
traversed the Ruedu Aluil at only a short
distance above the ground. Near the
forest of Fontainebleau they were also
seen in large flocks. Westerly gales and
thunderstorms have accompanied this
butterfly phenomenon. What special
harm tbc butterflies do is not stated.
The Strike of the Spinners at
Fall River.—Many mills started up at
Fall Rivor, Alass., Tuesday, with a large
increase of machinery in motion, some
mills being reported full and others con-
star tly gaining. It is said a few Union
spinners have returned to work. A
young weaver was seriously beaten by a
dozen strikmg spinners, but it is thought
by some he was assaulted by mistake for
a non-union spinner who boarded at the
same house. About 1,000 persons gath
ered around the Holly Tree Inn Tuesday
night, where imported spinners are quar
tered, and the tenement in which they
are quartered was stoned, chiefly by boys,
who are proving a troublesome element.
The police were called upon to preserve
order.

Captain Eads, the scientific engineer,
has appeared in a letter to the Hew York
Tribune with a novel plan for doing
away with the proposed ship canal a ross
the Isthmus of Darien. His plan is to
pick up a ship at Aspinwall and haul it
bodily across the isthmus to Panama.
He proposes a five-track railway with
road-bed forty feet wide and an immense
truck with one thousand wheels. He
will run his track under the loaded ves
sel as she lies in the dock, and secure the
same thereunto. Then, with a cozen
large sized locomotives he will walk off
with it like a thing of beauty at the rate |-*
of fifteen miles an hour, though the aver
age speed would not, Mr. Eads thinks,
be more tflan eight miles an hour. The
estimated cost of this ship railway ia only
$50,000,000, or about one-third of the
cost of a canal across the Isthmus. Mr.
Eads think, that he could complete his
railway in five yean, and thus give this
generation the benefit of his scheme if he
could commence operations at once.
