At 10 o’clock, this morning, the members of the Augusta Bar assembled to take action upon the death of the late Judge Starnes. On motion of Gov. Johnson, Judge TV. T. Gould was called to the Chair, ami Col. Twiggs was requested to act as Sec retary. On motion of Gov. Johnson, a com mittee of five was appointed to prepare resolutions, to be submitted to a subsequent meeting. The following were the committee ap pointed by the Chair : Gov. Johnson, Col. Hilliard, Mr. Hope Hull, Judge Hook, and Captain Barnes. The meeting then ad journed until 10 o’clock a. in., on the 28th instant. Augusta, Ga., March 28th, 18C8. The Bar met this morning, pursuant to adjournment, and was called to order by the Chairman, Judge Gould. The following preamble aud resolutions were then submitted by the committee through their Chairman, Gov. Johnson, and unanimously adopted: Asa Professional Brotherhood, we are called to record the removal of another member of this Bar to the spiritual world. Only a few days ago, Ebenezer Starnes was in vigorous health and in the zenith of useful activity; now he is numbered with the departed, and his place at this Bar, in society, and in the family circle, is vacant. The suddenness of the sad event is another illustration of the solemn truth, “ that in the midst of life we are in death.” The deceased achieved distinctions as a lawyer, the reward of long, continued devotion to the stern exactions of legal science. He was, for two successive terms, the Attorney Genoral of Georgia, afterward Judge of this Circuit, and then one of the Justices of the Supreme Court, in all of which positions he displayed great ability and learning, combined with uncorruptible purity and stern integrity. His published decisions amply vindicate his claim to be ranked amongst eminent jurists, a position awarded to him by his brethren of the Bar throughout the State. He was successful as a practitioner. Skilled in the rules of pleading and practice, he had few superiors in the conduct and management o( causes, He was a safe counsellor. Patient in the investigation of legal questions and intent on arriving at truth, his matured opinions were rarely erroneous. As an advocate, he was forcible and logical. He always met fairly the arguments of his adversary and exhibited the (rankness of an upright gentleman. He was not only an able lawyer, but he was a man of extensive reading. There is scarcely any subject, in history, science and art, with which h‘e was not more or less familiar, and he was happy in draw ing valuable material from all these sources, with which to embelish his style, illustrate his opinions, and enliven his conversation. Eschewing politics, he never sought its official honors. But he was a warm patriot, and devoted to the prosperity and elevation of his native State. Identified with Augusta, by every tie that renders home f»ered, its people enjoyed his sympathy and cooperation in every enterprise calculated to promote its improvement. Generous in his nature, he was kind and charitable to the needy ; and conscientious in his convictions of duty, he was prompt in the discharge of his obliga tions to society. Asa friend, he was sincere and true. Therefore, Resolved, 1. That, in the demise of the Honorable Ebenezer Starnes, the bar has lost one of its brightest ornaments ; the State one of its most worthy and distinguished citizens; and this community one of its most valuable and public spirited members. Resolved, 2. That we tender to the be reaved family of the deceased our most sincere condolence and sympathy, and that they be furnished with a copy of these pro ceedings. Resolved, 3. That the members of this Bar, as a token of respect to the memory of our departed brother, will wear the usual badge of mourning for thirty days. Resolved, 4. That his Honor the Judge is respectfully requested to order this preamble and resolutions to be entered on the minutes of this Court, and that a copy of the same be furnished to the papers of this city for publication. W. T. Gould, Ch’n. H. D. D. Twiggs, See’y. Lucky tteorge. General Geo. B. McClellan, proving himself nearest of kin to the late Lard Clyde, Colin Campbell, has inherited a large share of the property of that gentle man, who died intestate years ago, and whose “effects” have been in abeyance for the one discovered to be his most proximate relative. Mrs. McClellan (the General’s mother) and Lord Clyde were first cousins. Junius Again. A Mr. Hayward, in England, has re printed an article from Frazer's Magazine, which is said to give conclusive answer to the claim set up by Macaulay and others, for Sir Phillip Francis, to the authorship of the Junius Letters. Mr. Hayward shows, it is said, that ihe real author must have been older than Francis, for the writer of the letters claims to have witnessed the great Parliamentary fights during the Ministry of Walpole, and these took place in the childhood of Francis. He holds, moreover, that not the least resemblance to the handwriting of Francis can bo seen in the Junius manuscripts, and that while Francis had not the ability necessary to have written the letters, he had sufficient vanity to willingly take credit due to the anonymous. Cood-ty. It is a hard word to speak. Some may laugh that it should be, but let them. Icy hearts are never kind. It is a word that has choked many an utterance, and started many a tear. The hand is clasped, the word spoken, we part, and out upon the ocean of time we go to meet again—where, God only knows, lt ntay be soon; it may be never. Take care that your “good-by” bo not a cold one—it may be the last that you can give. E’er you may meet your friend again death's cold hand may have closed his eyes and chained his lips forever. Ah I he may have died thinking you loved him not. Again, it may be a long separation.— I fiends crowd around and give you their hand. How you detect iu each “good-by” the love that lingers there ; and how you bear away with you the memory of these parting words many, many days. AVe must often separalo from those we love when it is hard to part. Tear not yourself away with a careless boldness that defies all love, but make your last words linger—give the heart its full utterance— and if tears fall, what of it ? Tears are not untunniy. A Moral ami an Kxataple “Listen,” said I, “listen and attend, and you shall have a moral and example. When tbo wasp now in the window entered the room, you flew at it with all kinds of vio lence. I wonder it did not sling every one o( you. Now, in future, let a wasp, when it comes, have its bout and make its little noise. Don’t stir a muscle—don’t move a lip—bo quiet aa Venus or Diana, or anybody of that sort,uutil the wasp seems inclined, as at this moment, to settle, then do ns 1 do now.” Whereupon, dipping the feather end of the pen in the cruet of salad oil, I ap proached the wasp, and in the softest aud tenderest manner possible, just oiled it upon the body—tho black and yellow, like a green waistcoat—when down it fell, turned upon its back, and was dead in a minute. “There, girls,” said I, “see what kindness and a little oil does.” Now, here’s my moral aud exam ple: When a husband comes hotne in ill humor, don't cry out and fly at him, hut try a little oil—in fact, treat your husband like a wasp. Hund Around the lint. The Wisconsin State Journal exposes the Bates Flag-March through the South. It may be still a vexed question as to who pays for Bates' clothes, but the facts, as presented below, cannot be controverted : The w hole affair was arranged by some Copperhead politicians for a little cheap butteomb, Sergeant Bates, for some time before the beginning of his “march,” lived at Edgerton, a small village on the railroad about 25 miles east of this city. A citizen of Edgerton, who was in our office a few days ago says the story that he laid a wager with another citizen ot that place, that he could carry a United States flag through the Southern States, has no foundation. Bates is a young and worthless sort of a fellow, and a violent Democrat. Duriug the war he was a member of an artillery company stationed at Washington, but was never engaged in any battle, and saw no service more serious than drawing his rations and spending his pay about the capital. Last Fall lie went iuto Milwaukee, and, after an absence of some days, there appeared on the Demo cratic side of The Evening Wisconsin a long sensational account of tho tremendous march which Sergeant Bates, in accordance with a wager, was about to undertake through the Southern States. From time to time The Wisconsin gave a column in the best sciisatioual style of one of its Democratic editors, aud other Demo cratic papers and some Republican papers began to have paragraphs and longer articles about Sergeant Bates. When he left Edger ton, it was understood that he would be pro vided with a suit of black velvet and a flag by his patrons on reaching Louisville, Ky., the dress being devised to impart a romantic look to the flag-bearer. Meantime word was passed through the South, and the pro gross of Sergeant Bates has been made the occasion for demonstrations by the Secesh element o! stimulated enthusiasm over the national flag. Tho whole affair is a very cheap trick. Important Notice. We earnestly request any person desiring to send money to this office, for any purpose, to forward it either by postoffice order or Southern Express—the latter preferred. On no account send it by letter, as we are continually receiving complaints of money having been sent which has never reached us. Friends, take warning, ts AUGUSTA MARKETS. Monday, March 30—P. M.

Editor National Republican : Beau Sta—Our provision market during tho week past has Lecn in rather aflutter, and prices advanced considerably, with a good feeling in the trade generally, which, though tho orders that were being quietly filled without any reports being made public, have taken all the bacon that may come out of smoko for a week or so to come, nothing but small iots are offering, and by weak parties, at prices under the market. Strong holders demand full prices or no sales. Quota tions below will give you the feeling and tone of the market, aud while the oiders are slack at this moment, there seems but little disposition on the part of holders to part with their stuff at offering prices. MESS PORK has been generally held at $25, but buyers contend for $25.50a24.75 with an occasional purchase at these prices, and country at interior points could bo easily had at $24.50. Old Mess is getting scarce and in fair demand at $24, with but few sailers under $244. RUMPS are in fair demand at $16a20 as to quality, the latter price for very extra, choice and heavy. LARD has ruled rather easier, and prices at close can not be quoted over lf,e, though sales of the city have been made $ higher, and choice country- at tfio, Keg held at 17e.

Wasixibgton, March 29.—Impeachment rumors are rife. It is very generally re* ported on the street that ihe President's counsel will move to dismiss the case, there being nothing impeachable in the Charges or replication, and that Chase will sustain the Nation. High Radical authority hoots at this. It is confidently stated that Chase will take the extreme ground, though he may •laint the power of deciding judicial points as attaching to his position, but he will put the question to the Senate aud submit to their decision. Evarts has been in New York seeking authorities, there being no arranged libraries here, and no time for loose search. Evarts will arrive in the morning. In the meantime, the counsel having been sepa rated, they will go into Court without full consultation. The President’s counsel see no cause why tho trial will be prolonged over two weeks. Butler’s speech is prepared. He treats the matter in regular prosecuting attorney style. After Butler's speech, they will (quoting one of the managers) “pile in their witnesses.” AVade writes <o Grant that under the law requiring half the registered voters to vote, tho Constitution of Alabama was not ratified. He says lie cannot look oil the result ot the recent election as an expres sion of opinion that the registered voters do not desire to be restored under the Consti tution submitted to them, and in view of the recent Act of Congress allowing the majority of votes cast to ratify. I would prefer seeing the Convention re assembled for a revision of the Constitution, and the revised Constitution submitted to the people under the new law. I am of opinion a revised Constitution, more liberal in its terms, aud confined to the require ments ot the Reconstruction laws, would, in Alabama, as I have reason to expect it will in Georgia and F’lorida, meet the approval of a majority of the registered voters. Iwo delegations from Florida, each with Constitutions, are before the Reconstruction Committee. One is largely represented by Massachusetts, the other by the Wisconsin element. The Wisconsin party have Gen. Meade’s endorsement and forty five signers; but the Massachusetts party claim that the delegates signed the Meade Constitution because otherwise they could get no pay. The final vote on the Alabama bill, after the adoption ot a substitute by a vote of 77 to 54, was 102 to 29—t strict party vote, except Williams, of Pennsylvania. An order relieving Hancock from the command of the Fifth Military District, and his assignment to the command of tlie Di vision of the Atlantic, was promulgated to day. Hancock assumes command to morrow, with headquarters here. His ordeEassuming command will be issued to morrow. Revenue to day, §983,000. Congressional. Washington, March 30.— Senate.—. The bill regarding appeals from the Court of Claims was discussed and laid over. Tennessee’s representatives and Butler’s bill were resumed. His relief from political disability meets earnest opposition. Laid over. The Alabama bill, as passed by the House, was read twice and referred to tho Judiciary Committee. Chase entered and opened the Court. The usual formalities followed. The journal was read. Chase said the Managers will now proceed in support of the articles of impeachment. Butler spoke until four o’clock, concluding to comparatively a thin house, for the seats provided for the House Va3 almost empty, at.i ;he galleries by no means crowded., Wilson commenced tho evidence entirely documentary, and was interrupted in the middle of the President’s reasons for sus pending Stanton by a motion to adjourn, which was carried. The Tax Committee reported the whiskey clause, as modified. Frauds are punishable by fine aud imprisonment. The penalty covers distillers, dealers, and revenue officers, and imprisonment is mandatory. Suits shall not be dismissed or compromised without consent of the Secretary of the Treasury and Attorney General. Lumber and flour are excepted from wholesale tax. Otherwise no change in the report. Adopted. Adjourned. House. —The New Jersey resolutions with drawing iter assent to the Fourteenth Article was presented. Boutwell objected to its reception, as it was not respectful in its charges in accusing the House with usurpations. Half past twelve arriving, tho House went to the impeachment, and after its return, on motion, the New Jersey resolu tions were returned to the person who pre sented them as disrespectful and scanda lous. .Revenue Frauds. Gai.veston, March 29.—Special treasury agents, Stonnaker and Randall, have de tected astounding frauds in the revenue here by means ot a bonded warehouse hav ing ramifications in New Orleans aud else where. Several officials are involved in the frauds—chiefly tobacco and whiskey. Four hundred barrels of water, three hun dred empty barrels, and fifty barrels of a villainous compound, intended for combus tion to destroy the warehouse and evidences of fraud, were found. The parties impli cated have fled. Politics and Religion. Boston, March 30. During the session of Conference of the New England Metho dist Episcopal Church, the Committee on the Course of the Country, through the Rev. Gilbert Haven, reported resolutions endorsing impeachment, and eulogizing General Grant and Secretary Stanton for their patriotic conduct. The resolutions were unanimously adopted, and it was voted to send copies to the Speaker of the House, President of the Senate, Stanton, Grant, and the Chiaf Justiee.
