In the Superior Court of Fulton oonnty,
on Monday, Primroae Jobnaon waa found
guilty of v6ting more than oaoe, and aan-
tenoad to two yeara’ hard labor in the pen
itentiary. Good!
Bii.timokk levies a tax of one cent a
paaaenger on her rtreet railways, and out
of thia fund ha. purchaaed, oonalructed,
and keapa in repair a magnificent publio
park.
In tho Houso of Repreaentatives, on
Thursday last, Mr. Randall, of Pennsyl
vania, charged that the President had at
tempted a deception by hi. statement
that the Shepherd Government of the Dis
trict of Columbia had not incurred a debt
exceeding ten million, of dollars. Mr.
Randall ahowed from oflluial report, that
tho debt contracted exoeeded twenty mil-
Ilona. Mr. Hale, of Maine, after a feeble
attempt to sustain the President, called
the previous question aud out off further
debate. Mr. Randall remarked that the
time was coming when the truth could
not be snppreMied.
Tan Alabama M. E. Conference voted,
on Monday, on the Temperenoe amend
ment to the Discipline. The vote of this
Conference waa against the proposed
amendment, as follow.: Yeas—clergy illl,
lay 8—total 48; nays—clergy 47, lay I)—
total 5(1. Oreenville was selected as the
place of meeting of tho noxt conference.
The eommittee appointed to nominate
tba members of the Board of Miimiooa,
reported the following : M. S. Andrews,
E. M. Bounds, J. Barker, B. B. Ross, O.
K. Blue, T. F, Maugum, J. E. Foust,
Oeo. F. Ellis and J. M. Patton, who, on
motion, were confirmed.
Wn are glad to see indication, that
leading Republicans at Washington are
taking a more rational view of the qnes
lion of "civil rights.” In other words,
some of them appear to be abandoning
the proposition of compuleory mingling
of the two races in publio oonveyanoas,
Ac., aud are now only contending for
equally good accommodations for persons
of both raoes. This is, of itself, al
together uncalled-for, because it
is meddling with matters which
Congrsaa should leave to the States, and
which legislation cannot control. But it
will not be provooativo of the bad feeling
and conflicts that Sumner's bill wonld
have lad to, aud is therefore not ao ob
jectionable. Ou Friday laat, on motion
of Mr. Cessna, the Houso Judiciary Com
mittee referre&the Civil Righta bill to a
aub-oommittee, with instructions to re
port a new bill. This sub-committee la
eomposed of Messrs. Butler, Poland and
White. Mr. White is un Alabama Repub
lican, who waa defeated for re-election
notwithstanding the repudiation of tiuin-
ner's bill by the Btate Convention which
nominated him. He still shows opposi
tion to that bill, having submitted to the
Judiciary Committee a substitute which
proivdea that on railroads, steamboats,
hotels, and in plaoes of amusement aud
public schools, the colored people shall
have eeparate accommodations, but equal
in convenience, so that they shall enjoy
equal privileges with the whites, but
avoid the aaaooiatiou of the two colors.

plaos to rational coolness; and Wb think in
our earnestness we may have mads the
mistake of beiog partisan, find saying
strung things in the name ot principle.
Now wa do not propose to show that most
despicable form ot vaaity, ostentatious
humility, but rather to have a plain talk,
aud a kindly review of the recent elec
tion. Whether fortunate for ourselves or
not, we are so organized that wa Way
what we think, aud we are even
more anxious to show opposition
than to express regard. In pub-
lishing a paper, while we desire the moat
extensive pstrousge, we never feel that a
favor is conferred on us by taklhg our
paper or advertising in oureolumns. We
sim to give an equivalent. We also feel
that it is our duty to uppesa or advocate
men or measures in our columns, end it
should always bs done from a principle
euperlor to self. But the beet of us will
use tongue or pan to aid a friend or
defeat an opponent, and in doing so
lose eight of the principle. In the
reoeut municipal election ws here,
si is wall known, tbs strong advocate of
Mr. Mcllhcnny, and conssquantly aa
strongly opposed to Col. Wilkins. Now
that the heat of the strife is over, we fear
we may have been over zealous, and that
onr opposition to Col, Wilkins was s
stronger motive than ws at the time ii
agined, and that ws may have dons this
geotloman s greater wrong than hie con
duct to ounalvea would justify. He has
been opposed to us, ws art vain enough
to think, because ha docs not
know ns, and wa can pre
sume with equal truth that were ‘ V#
acquainted with Col. Wilkina we would
have been more just in act and spsaeh,
for ha is a gentleman of whom all (peak
highly, and ho must have ability to com
mand such reaped, and manly principles
lo bring to his support so many good and
upright men. This is not said, as our
friends know,to win the frieudahip or sup
port of anybody, but as a simple explena-
tion prompted by a sense of justice; now
that tha passions excited by tho tooal con
flict begin lo cool.
Above th« desire for personal suoee*
is tha desire for this eouqtry’a welfare,
thia city's prosperity, and one of the es
sentials to this is peace and good fill, a
unity of labor and a regard which must
spring from a common ehject, and a bet
ter acquaintance with each other.

Monday, 14fA.—The Senate penned a Mil

Tas following is the announcement by
Hon. W. D. Kelley, ot Pa., that hs is
ready to co-opcrala with an independent
party in opposition to the Finanoiel policy
of the Admiuietratiou. It is believed
that Gen. Butlor is as ready to take this
course ae Judge Kelley. The letter's de
claration is made iu a letter of Deo. 5th
to the Secretary of the "National Execu
tive Committee of the independent Party”
at Indianapolis. He says in this last let
ter :
“For the present I owe a duly to the
Republican party, and will perform it so
far aa I can conscientiously. If, however,
the demands of the party shall trench
upon the domaiu of conscience or self-re-
oppoeitiou to it. A few days will on
lighten me on this subject. If the mes
sage of the President and tha report of
the Secretary of the Treasury are lo con
tain auoh propositions es we are told they
will with reference to the speedy resump
tion of specie payments, and the Republi-
oan party accept them, I shall in so far
oo-operate with those who oppose them,
let such opposition lead me into whet
affiliation it may. I have oarefnlly con
sidered your proposed basis of union, aud
—Eufaula has gained 8,88;l bales of

receipts of last season for the corres

—The bar and citizens of Eufaula have
sent to (he Legislature a petition Braying
the impeachment of B, M,Neils,{Judge
of the Oity Court.
—The Montgomery AdeertieA says
that Mr. Frederick Nunn, of Autauga
county, baa plauted bis entire plantation
of 700 aorea in wheat. A sensible! act by
a sensible men. - * -— ,
—The "Stale obligations” of Alabama
have advanced to about GO per cent. The
demand for the payment of taxes has
something to do with tbie appreciation,
but judicious action by tho preseat Leg
islature may have the effect of meiutaiu-
ing it after the demand for paying taxes
is orcr. ■

says; Within the memory of the oldoHt
inhabitant there never was anything like
the influx of tobacco we are having now.
The town is daily inundated with it. The
warehouses ure all crowded and overrun
with the weed, and the streets blocked
with wagous. Tho sales am protracted

get around, Notwithstanding tha inponer
in which the market is Crowded, prices
ate kept np and the planters are reaping

—General Sbarman returned the appli
cation of a Bt. Louis young man for em
ployment in the War Department with
this endorsement: “I hare neither favor
nor influence at Washington, and am re
fused the privilege of employing a Clerk,
having to detail. officers or soldiers for

ward your application, and herewith ‘re
turn it to you.”
