Possession of seven years, with color of title,
wns proven. Documentary evidence was
introduced, running back as far as 1824-
Verdict for defendant.
Elizabeth McDowell vs. John T. Mc-
Dowell (equity docket) —libel for divorce.
The grounds of libellant were cruel treat

Verdict, “a vinculo matrimonies" ; obtained
before one special jury. According to our
Code, two concurrent verdicts are required.
The other, in this case, will be taken during
the term.
The common law and claim dockets will
be resumed to-day; the equity docket will

Sergeant Kuzfuz,
In his speech to the jury, on Wednesday,
made Mr. Pughe, of the Daily Press, ac
countable for the manner in which The
National Republican had succeeded in
the business competition between the latter
paper and (he Chronicle <£• Sentinel, of
which Bnzfuz is an employee. He probably
was justified in using all the arguments he
could to support the cause of his fellow
servant, Jerry McCarthy; but no man knew
better than he that the Daily Press and
The National Republican were separate
and distinct concerns. The one is no more
accountable for the sins of the other than
the Augusta Chronicle & Sentinel of to-day
is accountable for the sturdy Unionism of
the same paper iu 1860 ; or than the
Washington National Intelliyeneer, with its
present ultra Democracy,is to beheld account
able for the Whiggery of the same paper
under its former respectable conductors,
Gales Seaton. To abuse The National
Republican for the sins of the Daily Press
is characteristic of the demagogue, the
pettifogger, and the shyster.
The Extent of Omniscience.
Theologians unanimously agree that the
omniscience of the Ruler of the Universe is
unlimited, but lawyers, with their disposition
to question everything, have been disposed
to cavil at the doctrine. At least, we have
an authoritative legal decision to the con
trary, to which we presume all lawyers, with
their well known devotion to decisions and
precedent, will yield assent. The decision
was made by one of the best judges and
legal minds of Georgia, Judge Dooly, and
is in the following words: “God knows
everything except what will be the decision
of a petty jury.”
The Situation.
The continued agitation, this prolonged
“suspended animation” throughout the vast
region lying between the Potonrac and the
Gulf, imposes an incubus upon the whole
capital and industry of the entire country.
What we would again urge, then, is an effort
on the part of the people to bring about a
satisfactory settlement ot this Reconstruc
tion question—the adoption of some plan
which will restore the South, ensure the
rights of freedmen, and permit reanimation
in business circles.
At present the South is not only unequal
to bearing its proper share of the national
burdens, but being administered in a provi
sional way by the Federal Government, and
not like the rest of the country by local
organizations, it is itself an actual addition
to these burdens. As this state of things is
manifestly temporary, and no one can feel
quite sure by what it is to be succeeded,
capital refuses to flow into the South to
quicken its exhausted energies. When we
remember that by the abolition of slavery
and of the “Confederate debt” nearly the
whole of the accumulated and available
capital of the South was practically annihi
lated, we need not be, and will not be,
astonished that the South should be abso
lutely dependent upon anew influx of
Northern or foreign investments for the
means of employing either the land of its
planters or the labor of our working popula
tion.
Probably the most forcible reason for the
speedy and effectual settlement of our diffi
culties lies in the necessity to the nation of
a revival of business. We have already
referred to the effect of this stagnation upon
individuals. How much more important is
it to the nation at large 1 The taxes, as all
know, are heavy, and we believe that the
people will submit to even a much heavier
strain. And yet any one can see that this
continued inactivity prolonged through
another year will make it more difficult for
them to do what they would. The necessi
ties of the government must be just the
same. It will have the same interest to pay,
and the expenses cannot be materially de-'
creased so long as the South is under mili
tary rule. Should not these circumstances
lead us to put forth our influence for some
settlement which may do violence to none
but justice to all ? And in this connection
the people should remember that tho two
groat ends—rebellion put down and slavery
abolished—have been secured j that the
only desire remaining in the minds of any
is the guaranteeing to the freedmen equal
rights. It is impossible to obtain this end
except through several years more of strife
and military rule ?

u Honee, Street Home, 1 *
The first lecture of the season before the
Young Men’s Library Association, of this
city, was delivered on Wednesday evening,
at Masonic Hall, by Rev. Jakes S. Laiiab,
upon “Home, Sweet Homo.”
The lecture was highly entertaining and
quite well received by the audience, which,
though not large, was select and very ap
preciative.
Mr. Lamar began by stating that he
would speak both of the felicities and
infelicities of Home, but indulged the hope
that in enumerating some of the harmonies
and discords of wedded existence, he might
incite a greater interest in its behalf, and an
intenser desire to enter upon an enjoyment
of its blissfull realities.
Men build beautiful castles in the air, and
picture attractive homes with exquisite sur
roundings, many of which are never rea
lized. But these are not the essentials to
happiness, for it was shown that the material
circumstances and surroundings are not the
sine qua non which makes home happy.
True, the dwelling should be beautified with
taste, and decked with the vine and the
flower; but the rude log-cabin may be the
home of the truest love, and, in consequence,
of the truest happiness. The presence of
God with Jacob, in olden time, made the
rough stone a Bethel—and lote,
sympathy, mutual confidence, common joys
and common sorrows, make the lowly hut a
happy home.
Amid felicitous or infelicitous circum
stances —amid the horrors and sufferings of
war, or the wonders and beauties of travel
in far famed lands, the soul will turn away
with a feeling of volnl and deepest yearning
for home.
“ Tlic dearest spot on earth to mo
Is Homo, sweet Home;
The fairy land I’ve longed to seo
Is Homo, sweet Home!”
The lecturer desired to take the un
fortunate bachelors before him into “ fairy
land.” The philosopher Franklin compared
a single man to one-half of a pair of
scissors—which was a thing of no sort of
use. A picture of domestic life was then
drawn, in artistic style, for the bachelors’
benefit—a truthful and beautiful picture,
not forgetting the “ bran new baby,” that
important adjunct to most well-regulated
families—always the “ greatest ” or the
“ prettiest in the world.”
In that part of the lecture showing the
contrast of “ sweet home,” our friend drew
such life-like pictures of domestic govern
ment —specimens of managing children,
and the scolding of servants—that his
auditors were convulsed with laughter. It
would be impossible to reproduce these
faithful pictures with pen and ink, and we
will not make the attempt.
We congratulate the Y. M. A. upon the
very successful inauguration of their
Lecture Season, and are sure we but reflect
the expression of our intelligent readers in
returning thanks to the gifted Lecturer for
an hour’s agreeable contemplation of the
memories of “Home, Sweet Home.”
The Cheapest Food.
The cheapest and most nutritious vege
table used for food is beans. Professor
Liebig says that pork and beans form a
compound of substance peculiarly adapted
to furnish all that is necessary to support
life. A quart of beans costs say fifteen
cents; half a pound of pork ten cents.
This, as every house-keeper knows, will feed
a small family for a day with good strength
ening food. Four quarts of beans and two
pounds of corned beef, boiled to rags, in
fifty quarts of water, will furnish a good
meal to forty men at a cost of one dollar—
two cents and a half a meal.

a question arose in the Roman Senate, what
shall bo done with Latium and the people of
Latium ? There wero some who cried,
disfranchise them ; others said, confiscate
their property. There were none who said,
subject them in vassalage to their slaves;
but old Camillus, in that speech which
revealved his greatness and made his name
immortal, said : Senators, make them your
fellow citizens and thus add to the power
and glory of Rome. Mr. Doolittle added:
in this high place in the Senate of the great
Republic of the world, with the outgrowth
of the’eivilization of all ages, cannot we,
Senators, rise lo the height of that great
argument. '
Mr. Trumbull followed, when the Senate
