Ells, Local Editor of the Repui acax, is dead Now that we have written the fact, wc cat scarcely realize its reality. Our valuable auxiliary, modest, unpretending, but ear nest friend is gone. How awfully true it is, that “in the midst of life wc are in death.” About 5 o’clock p. m., on Friday afternoon, he came into the office, prepared an article or Awo for the paper, and, com plaining of feeling chilly, left us, with the remark that, possibly, he might not return, as usual, at night. Before his articles were set up, proved’ read and corrected, Jamss N. Ells was a corpse. It can be said, with literal truth, that lie died with the editorial harness on. He was cut off suddenly with a congestive chill, whose presence was unknown until it had performed its fatal work. Mr. Ells was thirty-seven years of age He was boru in Macon, Ga., aud had been connected with the press for many years. The Journal & Messenger aud Georgia Citi zen, Macon, Morning News, Savannah, Bap tist Banner, Atlanta, Field Fireside, True Democrat, Transcript, and National Republican had all reaped the benefits of bis energy and newspaper tact. Mr. Ei.ls was a devoted Christian gen tleman, and was fully alive to all church enterprises. He was a chaste and beauti ful writer. He never passed for his full worth, being too modest to make battle with the aggressive selfishness of mere pro fessional pretenders. He leaves a wife, relatives and many friends to mourn his wholly unexpected and untimely end. A noble and pure minded eolaborer has departed. May we die as peacefully and as quietly. Confirmation, Master Mitchell Flataw, son of Mr. Moses Flataw,was confirmed in the Hebrew Synagogue yesterday, having arrived at the age of thirteen when his individual respons ibility as an Israelite is held to begin. He read fluently portions of the Book of Moses, and, after the confirmation ceremonies, de livered a very sensible and really eloquent speech, in which he thanked his Maker that he had arrived at that age when he would be held responsible for his every per sonal act, and passed a beautiful tribute to the watchful care with which his beloved parents had instructed hi tn in his duties, and provided for his every want. He promised, in the future, to love respect and labor fur them, with the same affection ate zeal that they had manifested for him in Ms infancy. The whole affair was affecting aud beauti ful. The confirmation was conducted by Rev. E. Fischer. \ The Stevens Heme. Recently, while on a visit Io New York city, we were tbo guest of this model h< tel. It is conducted on the European plan. There is an absence of show, of bluster, and of shoddy airs, in this establishment, which affords actual relief to those who desire to enjoy some of the quiet and comfort of home, when away from the hum-drum of busy city life. We have never tasted better coffee than is furnished to the patrons of the Stevens Hoose, and every other article was equally excellent. This hotel is the favorite resort of Southerners. Mr. C. 11. Lovejoy Clerk, and John B. Bayley, Jr., Book keeper, seem to have been created for their particular line of business. The Stevens House is an institution. ' ... Putnam, for October.

Wc regret to learn that Rev. E. Fischeii, Minister of the Hebrew congregation in this city, has resigned his Pastorate, to accept a call from Savannah, to which place he will proceed about the Ist of October. Mr. Fischek has been in Augusta two years, aud has made hosts of friends and no enemies. Man Slabbed. Last evening, a white man, named Wm. Wilson, was stabbed in the right breast by another white man, whose name pur reporter could not ascertain—the latter having jumped into his wagon and beat a hasty retreat. That •‘Bend.” .

Fyall’s protest was then read for the infor mation of the House. The protest claimed that he (Fyall) represented 600,000 citizens, and that this body have done an illegal act by expelling a member who claims to bo and is a white man. The protest was laid upon the table. THE SENATE RELIEF BILL. Mr. Scott, of Floyd, offered a substitute for the Senate Relief bill. It was then read, g, vote taken on it, and lost.

U., September ‘lB. - There is little hope of a quorum on Monday, but it is understood that the officials of the House regard that they have the power to take u recess, and prolong the Congres sional day indefinitely: bn this theory, Monday’s session may cover a week or two. There seems to be no doubt of an ultimate quorum when as agreed by a conference, at which Wade,Colfax,Schenck and others were present, that Congress should be adjourned to the loth of October. Collector Charles Abel has been appointed Collector in charge of exports for the port of Philadelphia. This is the first ap|Miiutineiit, under the new law, of this'class. Mr. Pierce is convalescent.

Dr. Boyle was a Provost Marshal in the Confederate service, and allege* that under orders from Gen. Beauregard Im prevented the plaintiff from crossing vnd rccrossing the lines.
