Wo take the liberty of urging upon our
City Fathers the propriety of adopting an
Ordinance, making the circulation of inde
cent circular* and allykiada of Obeceno
publications punishabla by fine or impris
onment, or both. True, there is a State
law upon the subject, but we think that
recent events in this community call loudly
for a municipal ordinance relative to the
distribution of offensive reading matter.
Let such a law be enacted by the City
Council.
“ TklUfkM for ik* Time*.”
The following beautiful and “respecta
ble" sentences are transcribed from the last
in the series of articles which grace the
columns of the Augusta Constitutionalist,
from the pathetic pen of “Alims" :
“Great God 1 will you take niggors for
Voters, for jurors, for legislators—niggers
for your sons-in-law, negrcsscs for your
daughters-in.law, and mulattoes for your
heirs and posterity ?
* * * % *
“Fellow whites, shall this country be
governed by the whites or niggers ? Shall
it be the home of whites of full blood, or
a sink ot mongrels!"
4 ♦ + * *
In connection with these elegant ex
tracts, it becomes our pleasing duty to
state that a decided improvement appears
to have taken place recently in the minds
of our Conservative-Democratic friends
relative to the “miscegenation'* business.
Formerly—and not a great while ago,
either—there was no particular odium at
tached to its unlimited practice. (Wit
ness the numerous specimens of bleached
Africans of this and other South
ern cities.) This was, in a great meas
ure, the work of the Democracy, now
called “white man's party.” They did
it, too, outside of the pale of the law,
human or divine, if we except some hon
orable instances—as, for example, that of a
former Vice President of the United States,
and a life-long Democrat. The fact, there
fore, of the appearance of such articles as
“Albas” is contributing—on thsjpoesi
bility of regular marriages between persons
of different color—is worthy of especial
note, in so much as it betokens that the
time-honored Demoorntic practice of mis
cegenation has already, since the overthrow
of slavery, fallen so much into disuse that
even the idea of a bona fide marriage
between persons of the two races is looked
upon with disgast; from which wo infer
that the hundred of thousands of cases of
illegitimate intercourse formerly prevailing
among the political friends of the Consti
tutionalist would now be denounced as the
height, or rather depth, of barbarism, by
our indignant, venerable and virtuous
cotemporary,
Suddeu Death.
Mrs. Fiank, living in the vicinity of
Mayfield, died very suddenly one day last
week. The lady and a servant were white
washing a room, and the servant being
obliged to step out for a Few moments, on
her return found Mrs. F. lying dead upon
the floor. The deceased, at the time of
her death, was, apparently, in perfect
health.

A Cieorfriun Killed iu Texas.
A private dispatch to a gentleman in
Atlanta from Houston, Texas, reads as fol
lows : “Rough Harrison was murdered by
J. H. Patriek at one o’clock to day. Com
municate the intelligence to his family.”
The Intelligencer is informed-that the Har
rison referred to was raised in the vicinity
of Athens, and is very respectably con
nected there. The other party, J. H. Pat
rick, we learn, was raised about Carnes
ville, in Franklin county. We give pub
licity to the information for the benefit of
all concerned.
Color*.
There are many little arts which may be
used about colored clothes when washing
them, which tend to keep a look of new
ness as long as they arc worn. These are
some of them: A spoonful of ox gall to a
gallon of water will set the colors of almost
any goods soaked in it previously to wash
ing. A tea cup of lye in a pail ot water
will improve the color of black goods.
Nankeen should lay in lye before being
washed; it sets the color. A strong clean
tea of common hay will preserve the color
of French linens. Vinegar in the rinsing
water, for green or pink calicoes, will
brighten them. Soda answers the same
end for both purple and blue.
Insurance.
A few days ago an agent of an acciden
tal insurance company entered a smoking
car on a certain railroad train, and ap
proaching an exceedingly gruff old man,
asked him if he did not want to “ take out
a policy.” He was told to get out with his
policy, and passed on. After riding abont
half an hour, an accident occurred to the
train, and the smoking car ran over the
sleepers, causing much consternation
among the passengers. The eld man
jumped up, and seizing a hook at the side
of the car to steady himself, called out,
“ Where is that insurance man ?" The
question caused a roar of laughter among
the passengers, who for the time forgot
their danger.
_ . •
Spring Wheat.
From several quarters of our State and
Tennessee wc hear of the partial destruc
tion of the wheat crop by tlie severe
frost*, And in fact we may look upon the
prospect as one which promises not a fifth
of a crop. In this emergency, when
breadstuff*'are seriously needed, we Would
recommend that spring wheat be culti
vated as extensively as possible. As the
supply will be generally exhausted by
harvest, and should the corn crop fail, we
will be in danger of famine prices. Spring
wheat is not twqnty-five per cent, as valu»
able a crop as winter, but still the wheat
makes good flour, and the crop will pay
if sown early, by drill and harrowing after
good plowing.
If the farmers will take every advantage
that presents itself, and get the seed in
early, it may be that a very good crop of
wheat will yet ho raised. v*

On Saturday a bill was introduced in
the Senate to abolish tbe office of Adjutant
General of the Army. This is intended to
displace General Thomas, lately nomi
nated by the President as Secretary of War
ad interim.

The Wilmington Sc Manchester Hall
read In the Hand* of n Receiver.
The Wilmington Journal of the 2d says:
“ Under a writ of sequestration from tho
Clerk and Master in Equity for New Han
over county, Sheriff Buuting, yesterday
seized the Wilmington and Manchester
Railroad and placed it iu the hands of Mr 1
George G. Hull, the duly appointed Receiver.
Tho latter has now assumed possession of
the road, including its real and personal
property, rights and franchises. Agents and
others acting in this capacity are notified
that all balances which may accrue iu their
hands from the sale of tickets or otherwise,
on and after March Ist, must be paid to the
Receiver.
This change does not interfere with the
regular operations of the road.”
Musk*.
A correspondent of the Farmer's Ad
vertiser, writing on the value of corn
husks, says that it has been discovered in
Austria that 60 per cent, of the weight of
corn husks are of value in the arts. They
obtain from every 100 lba of husks, 20 lbs
of excellent varieties of paper, 25 lbs of
long fibre, suitable for spinning and weav
ing into a cloth of great strength and ca
pacity for resisting all tendency to decom
position, and 15 lbs of a farinaceous sub
stance, which by itself, or added to wheat
flour, makes an excellent bread, that will
keep sweet and good for months. Husks
are now very valuable to tho upholsterer,
for the manufacture of mattrasees. To
prepare them for market it is only neces
sary to split them once or twice and bale.
In futnre, when husking corn, farmers
should be exceedingly careful of the husks,
which now form a very valuable part of
the crop.
Bankrupin.
It may not be generally known that the
time is limited within which parties will be
able to avail themselves of the full benefits
which may now be obtained under the ope
ration of the Bankrupt law. In the 33d
section of the act, it is provided “that in all
proceedings in bankruptcy commenced after
one year from the time this act shall go
into operation, no discharge shall bo grant
ed to a debtor whose assets do not pay
fifty per centum of the claims against his
estate, unless the assent in writing of a
majority in number and value of his credi
tors who have proved their claims, is filed
in the case at or before tho time of appli
cation for discharge.” Tho Bankrupt act
went into effect June 1, 1867. But it
should he remembered that a case in bank
ruptcy is generally a tedious affair, and
consumes from one to four months. Those
who design entering this happy state,
should remember that delays are dangerous.
It is comparatively easy to become a bank
rupt now ; but the restrictions will be soon
in force, and those who meditate bank
ruptcy should he up and doing.

Chair submitted a communication from
Chase. Referred to Special Committee.
A* resolution erecting a warehouse at
Fortress Monroe. ; Referred to the Military
Committee.
The Sergeant-at Arms announced tho
impeachment managers. The managers
approached the bar, and the accompanying
members -arranged _ themselves round the
back seats.
Colfax was seated by Wade.
Bingham read the articles.
Butler’s, which quotes largely from the
President’s most stinging speeches, caused
sensation.
The Chair said the Senate will take
action, and the managers retired.
The resolution admitting to the gal
laries by tickets was postponed.
A committee of throe Senators was ap
pointed to notify the Chief Justice, and
conduct him to the Vice President’s scat
to-morrow, at one o’clock.
Several votes indicated a determination
on the part of the Senate to adhere to its
rule, notwithstanding Chase’s letter. Ad
journed.
House. —lmmediately after the meeting
Mr. Jenks proceeded to urge his article
declaring that impeachment would he in
complete without charging the criminal in
tent.
The previous question failed of record,
aud the article was lost.
The House then went into Committee of
the Whole, to proceed with the managers
to the Senate to present articles. •The Dom
acratic members remained in their seats,
whilst others formed a procession and pa
raded t 6 Ilia Seuate Chamber.
Afty their return, the Tennessee contested

plication for the Yazoo basin appropria
tion.
Two more impeachment articles are
pending.
The bill authorizing the Secretary of
War to employ counsel to defend the re
construction officers, will become a law by
tlie lapse of ten days.
Chase writes to the Senate, expressing,
in mild and somewhat indirect terms, his
non-concurrence with some of the prelimi
nary proceedings—holding that when the
Senate sits for an impeachment trial, it
sits unquestionably as a Court. The Sen
ate must necessarily receive notice of an
intention to impeach from the House; but
the organization of the Senate into a Court
should precede the actual announcement of
impeachment on the part of the House,
and articles of impeachment should only
be presented to the Court ot Impeachment
No summons or other process should issue
except from the organized Court, and rules
for government of the proceedings of the
Court should be formed only by the Court
itself.
.Chase finds himself unable to come to
any other conclusions than the above, but
adds: “I am informed that the Senate lias
proceeded upon other views, and it is hot
my purpose to contest' what its superior
wisdom may have directed.”
Tiie Supreme Court is still engaged in
the McArdlc case.
Revenue to-day, $1,054,000. Gold in
the Treasury, $100,250,000,
Wade presided to-day during tho entire
proceedings. This probably settles the
question whether he will vote on the final
issue.

sections, mostly devoted to tile protection
of the public against fraud and injustice
from telegraph companies, agents, and
