As an instance of the truth of the last remark, we assert that the petition is signed by the names of an Obstructionist newspaper firm in fVarrenton —some distance beyoud the corporate limits of this city. What will not some men do to carry a point? Superior Court. Judge Gibson presiding, the following cases were heard on yesterday : Edward Thomas vs. Peter Sheron (com. mon law docket) —suit for recovery of land.

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 be called on Monday morning. 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 ? Accident an G caret a Ha 11 road. due here at three o'olock yesterday morn ing, was thrown from the track by a broken mil, a mile this side of Berselia. The passenger coaches were completely wrecked, and the passengers wero brought to the city in the baggage car. One lady, whose name wo did not ascertain, was seriously hurt in the forehead. 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. AUGUST A .

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 adjourned in honor of Mr. Hamilton, of Ohio. Items from Washington.
