Telxobams report great damage to the otopa by . the floods in Northern Mississip pi. In the Arkanaaa Valley half the crops are tinder water. Tni hation says that nine-tenths of the people believe “that Bayea'a fight with the ‘asaohine' moat inevitably end aa Grant's did, in impotent anbmiaaion. “Thousands or Ommu" print an open letter to the President in the Cincinnati Commercial, asking him to thoroughly clean out the Shepherd ring at Washing ton. Bt the Loniaville, Nashville A Great Southern Railroad, time ia now betweon New Orleans and New Tork 69 boors and ten minntee, bnt overy flood breaks the line.

Tbs missionaries ue about to intro, duoe religious services on Coney Island beach in the Sunday afternoons of June, July and August. The proaohers oould find no huder field for their pious ef forts. Tna failure to get a satisfactory bid for the Freedman's Bank property in Wash ington reduces any hope of another divi dend almost to zero. And yet the negroes keep on voting for tho party that was the means by which he lost hiB hard-earned savings. The seventeen-year locusts have made their appnaranoo in New York and New Jersey, and the people are speculating about what they will do. Thoy need not be alarmed. The seventeen .year locusts are vety noisy, bnt that is the worst that oan be said of them. The Hooky mourn tain grasshoppers are different; they make little noise, but, like Josh Billings' patent oatbartic, “attend Btriotly to bust Tna Debt of Savannao.—Aja mooting in Havannah, Tuesday, it was resolved that a speoial committee of seven bond holders be appointed by the Chairman, who shall be charged with the examina tion of the bonded indebtedness of the oity of Savannah, and shall oonfer with the City Council of Savannah,with .view of ascertaining whether any arrangement oan be urived at as to the said indebted- ness, and that they report at auoh time as they may deem advisable to a general meeting of the said bondholders, to be held in tho city of Savannah. Under provisions of resumption aots there has up to date been about $92,000,. 000 legal tenders reared. These legal tenders have heretofore been taken from the outreuoy balance in the Treasury. It ia said that iq any reduction of outstand ing legal tender oiroulation which under the provision of the resumption act may become neoeaaary, bonds will bo sold for gold, and gold in turn for togal tenders. It is also possible that the (Secretary will by sale of bonds and gold received there for replaee $22,000,000 thus taken from Treasury balances. The Secretary's au thority to do this is said to be undoubted, and had his predecessors pursued what is now oonoeeded to be the proper oourse, it ia alleged the volume of legal tenders outstanding wopld be just so muoh near er the limit of $300,000,000 fixed by the apecin resumption act. There is no fear of the soaroity of one and two dollar bills. The amount actually in oiroulation is over fifty-one millions, besides ten millions in the Treasurer’s oflioo, and reserved for use, and ten millions in the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, prepared, or nearly so. CONVENTION ('AUEIKII. Telegrams of laBt night indicato that the Convention has been carried by at Uaat 10,000 majority. This is moat grat ifying. The singular feature of the whole transaction is that North Georgia is al most unanimous for the measure, while the negroes are almost solid agaiust it. This but affirms the assertions of Colum bus gentlemen who had traveled in the upper portions of tho Stale, and whoso observations were published in this paper eoveral months ago. At the time we remember well the Atlrnta Constitution spoke lightly of the information and seemingly disoreded it Does the vote of that section mean that the people desire to have the capital re moved to Milledgeville to save the ooet of erecting additional buildings whioh must inevitably be oonstruoied if Atlanta ia retained as the seat of Government! This remains to %e seen. In our own district the Convention bn been carried by a respoctablo majority, all the candi dates we ardently supported have been elected exoept one, and even there our favorite's plaoe is oocupied by a good and sound Democrat wbo has the con fluence of the community. As we have often stated, we had rather ail our oandidatea had been defeated and lUdioals elected in this district provided the Convention was earned, boost’» we know Democracy would be triumphant and the beat men in the Bute from other quarters, would be in the ascendant and give ra a Constitution of whioh we as Georgians oould be proud. With such »eo as Jenkins, Toombs, Lawton, Ingram, Little and others aa members, Georgia eau well rely on hav'ng an or ganic law worthy of hat pre-eminent po sition among the Southern Buies and the Union. PARTICULAR ATTENTION. Particular attention is oalled to the re ported speech of Mr. B. J. Moses, Repre sentative in the Legislature from this oounty, and Ilea. John Peabody's frank and manly sUtement in reply. After reading both we ds not bcUsve there will be a doubt in the mindsj of the people of Muscogee in regard to the matter. Ms. Peabody certainly baa the confidence of tho people of this county as Is evidenced by the large voto he received from tho property hoRTen; and lax payers, and the Interest of Its solid oonstitnenoy. lie de clined to put his name on tho antf-Con- vention tioket from thia county unless all the names of those wbo ran with him in the distriot were also printed on them. He kept his faith honorably with those of this oonnty wbo eonsentod to anbmit their elaims to arbitration in or der to proteot the rights of Chattahoo chee and Marlon. The result is told else where. Of Mr. Peabody it may be said that be oarried bis owu oounty and bis own eity without moving the slightest in terest in bis favor. ‘ If he had enlisted the warm advooaoy of bis friends, as they desired, be wonld have obtained auoh a majority in Mnseogae as would have mads it fntile in onr neighboring oonnties in tho distriot to bsvo attempted to defeat him. The negroes evinced an ingratitude in this oonnty which was unparalleled Ho haa done more than any other member of tho Board of Trustees to estsblinh pnblio schools for negroes in Oolumbn*. This will be attested by every member of tbs Board. The negroes a tale opposed hts eleotion as a member of the Constitutional Convention and oast their votes os a “single shot” in favor of anti-oonvention and his strongest op. ponont. The writer of this happened to be in the Court House when the votes of Muscogee oounty were being oounUd in the early portion of the evening and does not remember a “single shot” called for Mr. Peabody. Ho heard many for bis opponent—the one on whom the anti- oonventionisU bad centered. Mr. Pea body declined visiting other oonnties in this distriot. Mr. Moses, in tbs interest of another candidate, did, and U the re ports In the pspors be oorreot, did not represent M». Peabody fairly on a single oeeaaion. The tssto of opposing >be stump • gentleman wbp has been and is opposed to him on legr' questions in the bar, and haa won causes wa leave for the pub'io to decide. If Mr. Moses believes the people of Musoogee sustain him in his oourse, tho simplest mode for him would bs to re sign, as Hon. T. W. Grimes did, and ap peal to the people. This wor'd very shortly detenr'ne the queslion of popu larity, eonoerning which the people at times have been exercised. A re-elee- tion wonld dissipate all disputes regard ing the ehoioe and representation of Mua- oogoo, and oanae to oease the continuous disousaiou that the forbaaranoe of oppo nents caused hie olsetion. Another chance at the ballot would settle this question. Mr. Peabody oertainly has re ceived the endorsement of his oonnty, and that of his oity, despite of “single shota" against him. A CANO tlum MR. PEAUOOT. My attention has been oailed to this article from the Baena Vista Argus,whioh I bag yon to pnbl , ’-h. It will be soen that Mr. Moses is repre sented as oharg.ng against Mr. Orr that ho has employed lawyers throughout the Btata to apeak in behlf of tho pnblic school ay atom at $26 per speoob, among whom was myself, and paid them oat of the public eahool fund. The editor goes on, in a manly way, to meet and answer this statement and to prononnoe it un called for, .unwarranted and unjust. He states that Mr. Moses himself, after the speech, admitted that the money ao paid was no part of the pnblio school fund, but that it was paid out of what is known as the Peabody fund; and yat he told the people of Buena Vista that it waa paid out of the public school fund. In short, as tho editor states, he deliberately oon- voyed tho impression that the publio sobool fund was being divetted to politi cal purposes by the offloers. Thia oharge waa not intended ao mooh to hurt Mr. Orr as to hn-t myself. It was a deliberate and malicious attempt,to injurs ms in the op'uion of the good people of Marion county for tho oontemptible pur pose of defeating my eleotion as a dele gate to the Convention. Now the plain truth of tho matter, so far aa I am concerned, is thia: For some few yeara Dr. Bears, who ia the agent of tho Peabody fund, haa been making au appropriation of about $600 per annum for the support of our colored publio sohool, and as thia aa well as the white sohool is snpportod by the eity (ex oept about $1,603 received from the Publio Sohool fund), the Trustees were very enxious to have the appropriation continued at least for two more years, ao that we oould pay for the ereolion of the oolored school houses without oelllug upon the eity. We had understood that there was some doubt about getting an appropriation for the preeent year, and at tha request of the Board of Trustees I undertook to see Mr. Orr, when I went to Atlanta to attend the Supreme Oor-t, and r-ge him to get na the money. Mr. Orr is the agent for Dr. Beers in this State, aifd a'l applications must be reoommended by him in order to aeccve aid. I did call upon him in February and stated onr necessities as strongly aa I waa able. The facts were that our Board had undertaken to pnrohese the old negro ohnrch—fit it up for a school house Aid build an additional house, all ooating some $2,600, I believe, wlthont asking Council to appropriate more than what they had been paying for the rent of old Temperanoe Hall. Bo we bought up some stock and borrowed the money from the Building A Loan Aaaoeiation and did the work. Council haa only paid -ns the same amount they paid for rent, end with thia rent and what Dr. Bears gavo us, we have paid for the stock and the installments. We supposed IhetDr. Sean wouldooatinue his aid for at least two mote years after this, by which time we would have paid out, and than Gounoil wonld have had no rent to pay. Bo that now, if wa laded to get the aid. we should be compelled to ask Counoil for an appropriation. This we wished to avoid,if possible, and so wore very anxious to gel the aid. Mr. Orr told tna be. was afraid he oould not help ns, as Dr. Bears bad laid aside soma two or these thoosand dollars, I for get which, to pny the expensos of persons to make pnblio speeches in overy county in the State, and he had already made recommendations in favor of othor places for a large amonnt. But be promised to maktrnn estlihate and let me know beforo I left how muoh ho oould give ns. A few days afterwards he told mo be oould only give us four bupdred dollars. This wsa a disappointment, but it was all Mr, Orr oould promise. It then oeourred to mo that I would propose to make speeches lor the pnrpoeo indicated in tho counties in which I prsotioed law, and give the money to onr colored school, and I pro- posed to do so. Mr. Orr aocepled the proposition and asked me to deliver ten speeches, promis ing to pay $100. I declined to go out of my circuit and agreed only to make five, and it was then understood that I should make those five and that he should pay the amount to onr oolored school. As soon as I got homo I told the Trustees of this arrangement, but aa I did not agree to do it for bunoombe, I did not go around telling everybody I met of my object. I did make fonr or five speeches sod when Mr. Orr waa here last week, he, in presenoe of severs! of onr board, trr-wit: Messrs. Frazer, Estes, Uedd, and, I be lieve, some others, repeated the arrange ment, and then promised to send Mr. Dews the money for the appropriation and for tho speeohoa My opinion ia that Mr. Moses knew all these foots and that he deliberately told jnst enough to Injure me—well knowing that I oould not oorreot bis statements until after the eleotion. His sole object waa to defeat me, and perhaps this is one of the trleks by whioh the election wrs oontro'lod. Mr. Moses was one of the men seleoted by the oandidatea to determine wbo should mn. Ha acted nntil oonrt met and he was oompelled to send a substitute. Then otter I waa soleoted, he encouraged Mr. Fontaine to run, just to beat me, and goes off to Chattahooohee and Mat .on counties to ettaok me. To say the least of it, he oould have easily asaerta'ned the foots, and in my opinion did know enongh of them to show that the Impression sought to be mado was false. I content myself with this statement, leaving it to the publio to form their owu opinion of the man aud of bisoondnot. Jorv Peadody. Below wo give tho apeeoh of Mr. It. J. Moses *'i Buena Vista, as reported by tho Argus, to whioh the above alludes in jnst and Btrong terms, and in addition the oommonts of the editor, manfully combat- ting the wilfnlly prejudiced statements of Mr, Moses: His attaok against the publio sohool au thorities was, in onr opinion, nnoalled for, unwarranted, and unjust. If we un- detstood him, aud we think we did, he oherged Mr. Orr with having employed lawyers throughout the State to speak in behalf of the publio sohool system at $26 er speech, among whom was Mr. Peabo- ftow T* PROTECT WAN UMIU. THE TORPEDO NETTING USED BT SDMIRAT, PORTEB IN THI NHSJOUIPPI. T don’t think torpedoes amonnt to as muoh aa people are trying to make them- relvoq believe jnst now, * said Admiral Porter on Saturday, looking np in answer to a question about tho operations or the Danube. “If this Whitehead torpedo can do all they aay, why haven’t the Busaians sunk the Turkish fleet long ago? And hare was the Lay torpedo, to be worked by electricity, which waa going to blow np s vessel -further off than-yon oould see It. Why isn’t it at work? If the Tnrke had known bow to protect vessels they need not have had a single monitor. A torpedo, unless its very large, can’t bnrt yon through ten feet of water. Why, when I waa in the Mississippi, I should have lost very vessel I bad if we hadn’t hang a ettlng, rope netting, weighted around the vessel. I had a spar mu out twenty feet at the bow, and spars at fight angles to that to keep the netting away from the Ship, and when the torpedoes were float ing around they would sometimes ex plode on the netting, bnt they eouldn’t hurt the ship. You stlek your finger in a glass of water and pull it out and it doesn’t leave a hole there, and a torpedo makes no bole in the water when it ex plodes. It asn’t hart yon ten feet off. “I suppose It was a ohanoe shot whioh blwe up the monitor lost on the Den ube.” “Yes, I rather think the shot went down the smokestack or attack near the pipe, and went down to the bottom and exploded. It just blew her bottom off of her. You might fire a million Bliots st a vessel without doing the same thing. ” Disease ts an Antagonist That should be attseked the Instant he shows himself.

In short, that this money waa be iug diverted to politioal purposes by the officers. If suuh be true, we think Major Moses should have exposed it. If uutrue, he ahonld not have mentioned it. If, however, in either ease he made mention of it to show the evils of a law, then in snoh ease bo should have giveu the exact facts. And wo think now as wo did after the speeoh, and ao said to him, that bis charge should have been fully explained. • It niattors not what may have been bis motives, great injury has'boon done Mr. Orr. This attaok upon one of Georgia’s pnrost men, by ono of her most gifted orators, deserves a full investigation aa it will doubtless have. All parties are conoerped in it, and for thia reason wa think Mr. Moses should have oxpla'nod the entire statement to bis audieuoe. Those sohool olloers who know the basis of the obargo could make the necessary allowance, bnt the groat mass of the people never heard of the Teabody fnnd, nor how it was obtained. Bnt few people wonid atop to enquire why Mrscogee reoeived only icoo apportion ment from the publio sohool fund, while Marion, with loss obildren, reoeived more than that. None of the 'people seem to know, nor did Major Mosaa explain, that none of the pnblio sohool money of Georgia whioh arises from liquor and show taxes, road rental, eto., can bo applied to the build’ng of houses. In jnstioe to Mr. Orr, Major Mosea and (he people, we told him he should have explained it—told what fund, how ob tained, how, and by whom, disbursed. When told he ahonld have explained ~ * bequeathed purposes and ex- ended by the exeoator of the will of Mr. 'oabody, and not by the State—that tho State hrs no olalm to tho fund nor its dis bursement, that Dr. Sears, the exeontor, hr v fr'l authority lo so expend, aud ap propriate the said fuud aa may the better enhanoe in his opinion the pnblio bcUooI interest in Georgia, he said, “Yes that is true; bnt Ibat makes no difference, he had no right to nse it in that way." He told os also he did intend to explain it, bnt forgot to do so, and authorized us, if we should notioe his speeoh to stato for him that the fnnd rrferrod to was the Peabody fond, bnt that Mr. Orr should not have need it in that way. He slated farther that ha waa not in favor of abolishing the Oonnty Sohool Commissioners, bnt the Slate School Commissioner. The Major entertains different views of the powers of tha homestead, from whet we nave entertained in this, that ho says the laboring man on tha faint hii no re drew against the homestead, wbilo the mechanic or money lender has. He ia i staunch friend of Fontaine, and says he supports two of the high commie aion jnst because he has no one else to support. Uoaiota, the President's Private Score tary, sent a basket of flowers to Misa Boyle, the youthful “Juliet," and told her she made the sweethearts of Shakespeare “more reel than she who lived and loved beneath Italian akiea." And yet they say no wine ia oonsnmed at the White House. PHENIX CARRIAGE WORKS. HERRINC A ENGLAND, East of and opposite Oisbrow’s Livery Stable, OGLETHORPE STREET, TyjOBILE & GIRARD A. R.
