The D.KaUt News says that a man by the name of Lindsay Connors, living near Alpharetta, in Milton county, hung: himself a few days since in his own yard. He used the wll rope, and tied ic to a sweet guin tree. H-tried to drown himself the day previous, hut said he was unable to And a rock large enough to hold him down. No cause is known f ,r the act. except that he and his wife had a slight difficulty a few days before his suicide. Mr Connors was a hard-working, industrious and good citizen.” Fr'-l Turner, late a colored citizen of Douzlasville, is a most determined rogue. About a week agu he stole a buggy from his employer. Mr. Baggett. He was arrested, and pave b ml. On his appearance to answer the charge at court, Uql. C. M. Smith going on his bond. As soon as he w_s at liberty he stole a pair <>f pints from Col. Smith, his bondsman, and made tracks for Cobb county. While there, h» broke into the hju<e of Mr. 'V. C. Strick lin J, and stole a dollar and seventj--flve cents and a small breastpin. He was arrest* d again, taken to Mnrrietta and placed in jail, where he now languishes. All this in one week. Til • A’hens Banner reports that many years ago Athens had a law forbidding the sale of li (uors in quantities less than a quart. Wh••never a m in came along and bought a quart he cou’.d not, of course, drink it all; so the bar keeper would go to the door a id blow a blast on a cow horn aud the loafers all arouni town would hasten to help the pur chaser dispose of b’s quart. When, by any chance, a gallon was purchase J, the bar keeper would blow a ram’s horn, and then the boys would say to each other, “No use to hurry now; he’s got a gallon.” “Such,” says the Ban- n r, “were ‘the good old times.’ ” The Hawkinsville Dispatch announces the il.-ath of Hon. SmiLh Turner, of Wilcox couuty, at the age of seventy-two years. He died at his home in Abbeville on the fith inst. For many years he was Sheriff of Irwin county, ami also represented his people in the Legisla ture. He was also, at one time, Ordinary of W ilcox couu y, and throughout his 1-fe was highly esteemed by his fellow citizens. The Dawson Journal reports that the grist mill and cotton gin belonging to the estate of the late Washington Woolbright, about four miles southeast of Dawson, was destroyed by lire last Friday morning. That paper under, s ands that the Are originated from the care lass handling of a lantern by soma of the em ployes of the gin. The property was not in- bured. The boys around Crawfordville amuse them selves by talking puli ics and sucking sugar cane. The Crawfordville 2>emocrai says Mr. Louis Trope is an ent - usiast on rice cul ure, and has a fine patch of it on his plantation, just west of the village, an J proposes to increase the acreage next year. He is confident that it will prove a large paying crop, judging from the small amount of land it takes to raise a bushel. A mad dog created a sensation in Athens last Monday. He made a dash at a negro man, who escaped from him by climbing a fence. As soon os the refugee could come down he pro cured a pistol and AreJ at the animal, but missed him. The dog then ran off and has not been ic n since. A telephone line is to be established between Dfthlonega and Gainesville. The Waynesboro Herald says that the friends of prohibition in Burke county are thoroughly in earnest a r 'd intend forcing the question to an issue at an early day. They iutend publishing a notice applying for a local law to prevent the sale of liquor in the county, as required by law, and will submit the question to the people at the polls at the November election. Mr I). R Mills, of Bucnornbe district, Wash ington county, familiarly known as “Uncle hick, " died of typhoid fever on Saturday last, age I seventy-six years. His niece and daugh ter died of the same disea c e on Saturday after noon, Jaml a son and two daughters are now sick in the same house with the same disease. Mrs. Weeks, a married daughter of Mr. Milis, living near by, is also down with the di-tease. As the Sandersville Hera Id says, that is truly an afflicted family.” Hawkinsville Dispatch: “Capt. C. A. Locke, civil engineer and commander of the govern ment force employed iu removing obstructions b ":n the Ocmulgee river, arrived in Hawkins- vill- hi Wednesday of last week with his dreiL'.ng boat, and remained until Siturday in 'M ing, when lie left for Lumber Citv, at •v»n . .. t W ill agaiu commence work on the river.” IkKalb Neirs: “Mr. Newton Williams, of DcKaib county, left a short lime ago to nuke h s home in a distant part of the country and before going left a dollar with a fri -n i to pay hi* 1> *11 tax for the year 1880. saying that h» Wa,| b-1 to leave the State with clean hands and clear skirts. This is an example of hones*y Much is rare and refreshing. Mr. Williams deserves to sue ‘red in whatever sphere he casts uis fortunes, and we have iff) doubt he will.” The Albany News and Advertiser decidedly wants peace. b>peaking of the Gubernatorial election it says: ”i hack God, it is over! For Personal bitterness slander, and outright dein-.gc.guery the canvass that preceded it has n ’ parallel in the history of our State, and all Accent people will respond a hearty amen, whon we say that we hope never to witness its jsqual again.

The Debate on Free Ships—A Vari ety ol Opposing Views—How to Restore Our Foreign Commerce— PasMage of the Resolution of the Committee. By Telegraph to the Morning News. Boston, Mass., October 8.—The National Commercial Convention reconvened at ten o’clock this morning. The debate on the “free ship” resolutions was resumed, each delegate being limited to ten minutes. John Boyton, of New York, argued In favor of the enactment of navi gation laws, which he said would be the protection needed. W. A Bates, of the Buffalo Dry Dock As sociation, favored the passage of an act b} r Congress, providing for duties to be paid on all vessels not built or owned in the United States. Nathan Crowell, of the Boston Board of Trade, spoke lu favor of allowing foreign v »uilt steamers to run under the American flag, otherwise the commerce of the country would be entirely lost. John P. Wetberil], of Pailadelphia, spoke earnestly in favor of subsidies and against town and State taxes on shipping. Jobu Townsend, of the New York Pro duce Exchange, favored askiug the govern ment to pay a bounty of ten per cent, on tbe cost of construction of ail vessels built in the United States, and to allow Ameri cans to purchase ships abroad and sail them with an American register upon the pay ment of ten per cent. Speeches were also made by Ilenry (Vin- sor of Philadelphia, Wm. H. Webb of New York, John A.Ordway of Boston, and others. Several amendments were offered, but all were voted down, aud the resolution report ed by tbe committee was adopted in the following form: Jiesolved, That we call upon the govern ment to aid in the restoration of our com merce, by granting a bounty per ton per year for sail tonuage and per ton for steam tonoage for a period of — years after the pas sage of this act. This is to apply only to vessels engaged Id the foreign trade and not exceeding fifteen years of age. The delegates took an excursion down the river at live o’clock, and upon their re turn tbe session was resumed. The conven tion having expressed its decided opinion in opposition to free ships and agaiust the repeal of the navigation laws, proceeded to the consideration of other matters. The resolution offered bv Washington Ryan, of Portland, was adopted in the fol lowing form : “That as the foundation for all measures proposed relating to ocean commerce and general navigation interests of the country, thi6 convention petition Congress to establish a de pot of commerce to be presided over by a separate Cabinet officer, and that Congress assume and exercise the powers grauted by the Constitution to regulate commerce through that department. A resolution of J.

A11 Execution agalnat Turkey Fa vored—The Recall of tbe Whole Diplomatic Corp* from Conatantl- noplo— International Fleet to be Sent to the Boaphoru*. By Teiegravh to the Morning News. Rome, October 8.—The Direlto 6ays ti e new proposals of England have not yet been dispatched to the powers. It is probable, however, that the powers will recall the whole diplomatic corps from Constantinople, and send the international fleet to the Bosphorus. It Is unlikely that aDy Ottoman ports will be blockaded, but It may be expected that the fleets of the powers will prevent Turkey from sending ammunition or men to the Hclleric provinces to resist annexation to Greece. London, October 8.—The Notlh Ger man Gazette, Prince Bismarck’s organ, considers that in some quarters an execution against Turkey Is advo cated, and it Is not inopportune to reprint protocal eighteen of the Berlin Congress. The protocol shows that the Congress re jected both the Russian proposal aud the Austrian amendment respecting the control and supervision of the execution of the treaty of Berlin, and that the Turkish Pleni potentiary declared that the Porte was ready to carry out the treaty, but declined to submit to any control. The Tones' Rome dispatch remarks that the Duetto is doubtless informed from an unofficial source. A Berlin dispatch to the Iteu’er Telegram Company this evening says: “Germany will refuse to j *in in coercive measures against. Turkey, unless all the powers par ticipate lu them.” 3t.

Why All Hen with any Character to Lose Among Them will Vote and Work for Hancock. New York World. At a conference of prominent Southern Republicans held in Washington the follow ing address, indicative of the feeling among the class of men who stood by the Republi can party in the South as long as they con sidered it entitled to support, and In the face of popular opposition, was prepared and directed to be issued : The undersigned having earnestly support ed the Republican party in carrying out the priucipks of the reconstruction measures of Congress in the Southern States, feel con strained by tbe present situation in public affairs to state some of the grounds upon which a change in the party character of the national administration Is demanded. The reconstruction measures were precipi tated upon the South in a time of great public excitement. They were to subvert ideas, habits and conditions fixed by tbe usage and experience of generations. * This was to be done at a time and under circum stances well calculated to produce most serious apprehension. The disfranchise ment of the principal property-holders, coupled with the enfranchisement of the whole body of former slaves, to be put Into operation in the midst of a disrupted con dition of government, alarmed the most thoughtful and patriotic citizens. Thought ful men had hoped and expected gradual and carefully tested 6teps in the adjustment of matters so vital to the peace and equilib rium of society. But tbe alarm and opposition were great ly increased by the disgraceful and reckless conduct of many of the persons intrusted with the execution of this new order of things. This conduct inflamed prejudices and provoked conflicts. Instead of dis countenancing the misconduct of these per sons by its restraining attention, the na tional administration has continually ex tended to them special countenance and favor and has repressed the exertions of the more worthy and judicious supporters of reconstruction. We deem It sufficient sim- p v to state the facts, without Indulging in 1, v warmth of expression or referring in de- r.k’I either to the repeated acts or to the gen- .-ral spirit and policy by which the present auu preceding administrations have made rhe management of reconstruction a curse to the colored race as well as to the white people of the Southern State*. But the first apprehension in relation to tuc iuiuiediate execution of the principles of the reconstruction measures has Lcik greatly relieved by time and the test of ex perience. The disfranchisement feature having been removed, there is now a gen eral acquiescence in the principles involved, as, indeed, nothing more than the funda mental ideas of the American system of government. But the recollection of unre strained abuses 6till remains, and there Is still a deep grounded apprehension that such abuses may at any time be repeated in their worst form as lopg as the national admlnis- } tration continues in the hands of the Re- j publican party. We are satisfied from personal knowledge derived from observation and from partici pation in the reconstruction policy, that a change in the party character of the national administration is now the surest and best means of placing reconstruction upon a safe and peaceful basis, and of at once uniting the country In mutual confidence and kind ly relationship And, as this should be the first and leading purpose of the American people in the pending Presidential election, we believe it ought to override all party at tachments and considerations. To elect a Republican President at this time by a sectional vote would be a public calamity of the gravest character. It would unquestionably set back tbe growing 6enti ment of nationality and unity which a just and enlightened policy in the management of reconstruction would long since have per manently secured. While wishing to avoid as far as possible any matter appealing to feeling rather than sober reason, we cannot well omit alluding to the fact that tbe Re publican party has made Its present cam paign a direct ’attack upon tbe South by seeking to revive against it the distrust and hostile feeliDgs engendered by the war. We cannot be unmindful that this is being done for the purpose of securing a party triumph which is to install such distrust and hostility in complete control of the na tional administiation. It Is natural and reasonable that the Southern people, so threatened, should unite in resisting, by their votes, the consummation of such a purpose; and that they should appeal to thoughtful and just men In the North for protection and suppprt. __ We are unable to see Iu any existing con ditions a reason why 6uch protection should not be extended. Slaverf no longer exists, so there is absolutely no sentiment in tbe South that would favor its restoration and scarcely any that regrets its destruction. The Union has been reconstructed upon the basis of freedom and political equality, and there is no element in the South that would attempt to have it otherwise. The senti ment has become practically universal among the Southern people that the Union Is the best security to their liberties and the surest guarantee of their future prosperity and happiness. But they would not con ceal their dread of evil from the organiza tion Into a pol’tical party of all who are unfriendly to them, for tbe purpose of con trolling the common government to their oppression and injury. We have sincerely regretted the failure of the Republican leaders to recognize the true situation iu the Southern States. Their mistakes and wrongful conduct, in the exe cution of the reconstmction act6, have caus ed us to despair of their ability to establish mutual confidence and harmony between the sections. The sectional grounds upon which they are seeking to carry the pending election have forced us to distrust their dis position to regard the Southern people as equals in the Union, or worthy to be trusted as participants in the common government of tbeir country. They have year by year steadily driven from the party in the South numbers of its most considerate and earnest supporters, until they have practically de stroyed it in every Southern State. Its re vival In the future would be placed beyond all possibility by the success of their present attempt to elect a President by a sectional vote, under the hostile attitude they have made this campaign assume. The nomination of General Hancock has placed the Democratic party upon the most elevated plane of devotion to the Union, the Constitution and the execution of the laws. He has pledged the country an ad ministration upon the safest and soundest principles of free institutions. This pledge is guaranteed by his proved devotion to the Union and his great public services, and by the firmness and purity of his private char acter. We confidently believe that his elec tion to the Presidency is the safest and sur est means of removing all remaining obsta cles to the perfect and peaceful establish ment of reconstruction upon the basis of freedom and political equality aifd of restoring complete reconciliation and con fidence between all sections of the country and among all classes of tbe people. The Southern people would then divide upon other Issues, with no regard to race distinc tions, and there would soon be established a normal condition of political sentiment and action, conducive alike to the interests and happiness of both races and to the general peace and welfare of the whole country.
