Harrio, onr immediate ltepreaentotire in Coagrear, for hi. oourtery and promptnoca in tanding ok valuable documents. -— -e»oao> 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.

The bast of us show odt vanity by thinking we always P»*A^P' g, we have only the good of bur Untt^nd the bappiuaaa of our feUa*r-mao at heart, liotep jtadq the ehatge against them.

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. _ - C ' Alabama Laglasatura. Monday, 14fA.—The Senate penned a Mil to relieve Mejor H. Ht. Peal, ot Mobile, of the penalties of duelling. A specisl eommittee of the Henate reported « bill to provide for the support of the Freed- men 'e Hoepltal at Talladega, and along dabete on it was out short by tha hour for a special order, which waa the substitute for the bill rsising a commission to ascer tain, compromise or adjust the indebted ness of the State. This bill will be found in onr telegraphic columns. The Mil, as amended, pesaed the Senate by a veto of 15 to U.

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.
