"Who shall decide when doctors disa gree ?” is s question that comes up while considering the notion of the Assembly, yesterday, relative to the matter ol pub- lie printing. The two house* seem to be decidedly contrari-minded upon the subject The Senate, being in favor of the strictest retrenchment, favon the proposition to pot the work ont to the low est bidder. The House lean* to the old rule, which was a liberal one for the printer, and passed * resolution to go into an election for .Printer at noon yes terday. The Senate refused to concur in the House resolution, and the House refused to concur in the notion had in the Senate. There the matter rests lor the present. Senator Lester made an able argument upon the proposition to let to the lowest bidder. He is strongly in favor of re trenchment, and believes there is room for curtailing expenses in this printing matter. He has evidently studied the matter carefully and understands the gist of the question. His speeoh had a mark ed influence upon the minds of the Sen ators. The House made a judicious selection when Msj. Camming was chosen Speaker pro tern.-, also in electing Carrington Clerk pro torn. Camming is admitted to be one of the ablest members of the House, one of the most thoughtful and * attentive, and, in or out of the Speaker’s chair, he commands the highest respect from every one. Carrington is a born Clerk. 'What he does not know about it cannot be found in Cushing's Manual; while his voice suits the business quite as well as Nilsson's suits opera. He has the very voice for it, and can make him self heard without difficulty. Both these offices are well filled. SON-STROKES.

The Democratic majority in Ma ryland is 15,000, and this in spite of 35,- 000 negro votes lately added to the Re publican party. “Bourbonism” does not work so badly after all, when taken straight M- The New York World says “some nations are born to Orand Dukes; others achieve Orand Dukes; and still others have Orand Dukes thrust upon them.”— From the way Alexis stays, however, it does not seem probable that this nation is destined to range within the last cate gory. ( t Mp- The Delaware (Ohio) Herald say* of Tom Scott as the Democratic candi date for the Presidency, that his indi vidual character, “modes of Hfe, thought and business are about a* much in har mony with the principles of the Democ racy a* a pig's squeal with the voice of Nilsson.” That ought to make the Soott men, wha for Tam has bled, grant. *W» The martial law bugaboo has been up and down before the eyes of the people of Georgia several times during the past two weeks. A few nights ago it was announoed by telegraph that the President contemplated suoh a movement in some of the Western counties of this State. This report; however, is discred ited by the Washington correspondent of the Savannah Next, who telegraphs the following, on the 11th : I understand that another Ku-Klux scarecrow was telegraphed heneeleal night to the effect that the President had un der consideration the propriety of sus pending the writ of habeas carpet in sev eral counties in northeastern Georgia.— There it no truth in the report. The President has not even had any testimo ny presented to him on the subject, and at the Attorney General’s office they have no information relative to each contem plated act on the part of the Executive. The New York Herald admits of no donbt “that the fire in Chattanooga was the work of incendiaries, incited to the desperate act by the successful field discovered to them in Chicago.” I®- The Boston Advertiser says Stokes, of Tennessee, was only “a victim of un toward circumstances.” So was Hodge. So was Tweed, Sweeny and the balance of the “Ring.” In fact, the country is troubled with an epidemic of “untoward circumstances." Almost every Radical office-holder has committed one. Scott, of Sonth Carolina, and Bnllock, of Geor gia, are believed to have committed huge “untoward circumstances.” by the grand jury. Associated with Mr. Weed in the defense is Hon. Jno. O. Fen-ill. The case will be called et the earliest opportunity, and the matter will be speedily investigated. Bainbridge is plotting to hold a mass temperance meeting. 9* A South Carolina paper thinks Union county owed his exemption from martial lew to its name, Grant suppo sing that all the people of Union must be loyal. He had heard probably heard somewhere that “Marion” was the name of a “ Rebel” General; therefore, he in cluded Marion ooonty in the proclama tion, and if he had known that Sumter county was also named after a “Rebel” General, no doubt that connty wonld also have been included. . The New York Nation (as Radical as Thad. Stevens ever was) speaking of Bullock, says: “He is one of the worst of the gang whom tho reconstruction pro- oess raised into power at the Sontb, and he will probably endeavor to figure in Washington this winter as a Unionist 'martys,' The most entertaining part of his farewell letter is that in which he warns the Union men of the State that they will soon be eaten np by the rebels.” GEORGIA MATTERS. On Monday night, during the storm, the carpenter of the ship Ironsides fell between his vessel and the ship Tiger, lying along side. The rain was {ailing in torrents and the wind blowing a gale at the time, and the only lights near were thoso of the two ships that flick ered and cast but feeble and uncertain rays from their elevated hangings, high ft among the ropes and spars. The ght was excessively dark and the water black, and the aotion of the elements which forced every now and then tho two vessels against eaeh other, influenced the stoutest-hearted among the generous, brave and weather-beaten sailors, to ah despair of saving the life of their comrade. No lime was to be lost. Death by being ornsbed between the hulls of the ships was very probable at the next moment Quickly, Mr. Healy, the sec ond mate of the ship Tiger, who discov ered the perilous situation of the car penter, leaped overboard, and at the risk of meeting the fate anticipated for the other man, lashed himself to the drown ing carpenter,’when both were hauled in ifoty upon deek. Such an act of brave r should not go unrewarded.—Savannah r «M. The Macon people failed to turn ont and hear the lecture of Captain John O. Brain; but they were never much on brain. The Milledgeville Union learned that a fire occurred at Linton, Hancock coun ty, on last Friday night, destroying the store of James B. Cause , and John Traywiok. The cause of the fire is un known. Tho contonts of both stores were ontiroly consumed. Tho Athens Watchman of Wednesday says: We learn that n sanguinary affray occurred near town on Saturday night last, between Mr. Hamilton Huggins and a young man named Cobb McDonald, in which the latter cut Huggins, whereupon Huggins shot him twice with a pistol— the fint boll passing through bis chin and the seoond through one of his lungs. We have not learned whether the cat re ceived by Huggins is regarded as dan gerous. MoDonald is still alive—his re covery is doubtful s late Wilkes county fair, Toombs bed on exhibition, from his own garden, thirty-one varieties of fresh veg etable. At the some fair was a rifle modi by Mr. H. D. Minden, of Taliaferro county, of which the Washington Gazette says: The maker never worked at the gnn smith's trade a single day in his life. He not only made the rifle, but made ev ery tool usod in its manufacture. It was made in an ordinaiy country blacksmith shop. The only materials purchased were the mountings, and they in the rough. The 6took was made from black walnut, out by himself, from Little river swamp. We profess to be a good judge of guns, and do not hesitate to say that the one exhibited by this unknown Geor gian surpasses anything of the kind we have ever seen. It was not made origi nally for exhibition, but for his own pri vate use. It took the premium at Au gusta oyer guns manufactured bv the most skillful workmen. R Died—Mr. Hilliard Crutchfield, of Macon. Greensboro Herald't a big frost Macon gents are gorging themselves on partridges, to see who can eat most. The bnilding committee of Mercer University is preparing to go to work in Macon. The Savannah Advertiser intimates that they have treed Robb in “the last ditch," and nothing is now left but to unearth him. Savannah records the latest accident from the “non-explosive.” Nothing fatal The Barnesville Gazette announces “the explosion of a kerosene lamp.” A deer was captured near Savannah, the other day. He attempted to swim from Hutchinson's Ialand to the city and was overtaken by a pair of boatmen. The “hop” season has commenced in Bainbridge. On Friday lest, in driving s cotton gin, Mr. William Pearman, of this county, was caught in tlis cogs sad instantly killed. He was an industrious and sober man, and had lost one of his eyes in the oanse of his country. A negro of this connty was lost week deprived of an arm. whilst feeding the gin. On Wednesday last, says the Covington Enterprise, Mr. A. J. Belcher, near StarrsviUe, Newton county, was severely hurt by baring his right hand caught m agio, terribly lace rating the whole hand, and nearly sev ering his middle finger. Mr. Joseph F. Ship, of (Social Oirole, says the Walton Journal, and last Saturday, while super intending the working of his ootton gin, was caught by the saws of tho gin, and before he could be extricated, his arm was badly mutilated.
