We are reliably informed that the bill introduced by tho Hon. Henry R. Harris, a few (lav since, asks for one hundred thousand dollars for our river —Congressmen Harris and Smith very sensibly deckled that all further bills asking aid for the Chattahoochee and Flint rivers should be separated, Col. Harris looking immediately after the wants of the Chattahoochee. Knowing we do the vital importance to the Government and to our town of our river being in perfect order, we hope the bill will pass as now introduced. Then the river could be promptly and piiekty put in first-class order. Much depends on the report of the engineer In charge. If Maj. Darrell can see it practicable to use tho amount during the next year, we are confident our Representative will push the hill suc cessfully through. RuMirll fount.* Jotting*.

Tho property amounting to about 83,500 was made over to his tlireo sons-in-law, Messrs. M. G. Cherry, W. C. Tolbert and Jessie Iladdox. Formerly a will and tostamont was made leaving all of tho effects to tho wifo, Mrs. Nancy E. Hazleton. Tho throe heirs mentioned above met yesterday at the court house with tho relict and gave her an equal share with themselves, the same to re vert to them at her death.

For tho purpose of giving a true his tory of tho Convention for the 24tli Sen atorial District which met in tho court house, in this eity, on 13th instant, wo desire to do so through the columns of the papers of tho district. The whole district was represented and Judge Butt of Marlon, was elected President of tho Convention and Mr. Chappell, of Mus cogee, Secretary. The delegates from Muscogee presented for the eonsidera. tion of tho Convention, a set of resolu tions in bohalf of thoir county, upon thoBUbjectof representation of counties in tho Convention and declaring against otation. This provoked an animated discussion, and soon became an applo of discord in tho body ; and, seeing this, tho delegates from Muscogeo in a spirit of conciliation, withdrew the resolu tions and tlie Convention then stood upon tho basis of preceding Conven tions. That is to say, Muscogee was entitled to six votes in the convention, Marion and Chattahoochee throo votes each. Muscogee had nino delegates in tlie Convention, and, by tho voluntary withdrawal of tlie resolutions,she could only cast six votes. Tho object of tho Convention being to nominate aSenator, Dr. John E. Bncon, a delegate from Muscogee, moved to go into a nomina tion. Tlie motion waH resisted by Judgo Butt, from Marion, who stated that tlie object first to be obtained wus, which county, Marion or Chattahoochee, was entitled to tlie nomination ? Tills question was withdrawn by Judge Butt and Dr. Bacon's motion was then in order. At this stage, Jndgo Butt again arose and moved to adjourn, and tlie motion was declared lost. Right here, the delegates from Marion und Chntta- hoochoc took up their hats and walked out of tlie Convention. Tlie Convention then voted upon tlie only question be fore the body, which was to go into a nomination, and thereupon nominated tlie Hon. T. W. Grimes as Senator. Tlie Convention did not know what tlie Marion und Chattuhoochoc delegates meant by going out of tlie room without giving notice of their Intention. The Convention suspected, however, that they had “bolted j” and, believing tills, in a fair and honorablo spirit of harmo ny and conciliation, passed resolutions, regretting such action upon their part. Tlie Convention then adjourned, Mr. Grimes being tlie regular nominee. After this, we are informed, the “bolting” delegates met at tlie Rankin House in this city and doclared Maj. E. W. Miller as thoir cboieo for Senator. Thus you will see that Mr. Grimes is nomlnatod by the Convention, and Maj. Millor is nominated tty the “boltera.” Iu conclusion let us ask "what did tlie Convention assemble for?” Un questionably to nominate a Senator. What did tlie delegates from Marion and Chattahoochee meet in tlie Conven tion for? The conclusion is evident from their action that it was to nominate Maj. Millor or to "bolt,” which latter course they adopted without even be ing willing to stand to and abide the action of tho whole Convention. Wo did everything iu our power to produce harmony and good feeling. The delegrtes from tho lowor counties have acted as abovo. We believe they did not represent their people; however in tlds wo may lie mistaken. The result of tlie election will show. Mr. Grimes has accepted tho nomina tion. Tho quostion is, which will you vote for, Grimes or Miller? DELEGATES. John E. Bacon, Geo. W. RadelitV, Thos. J. Nuckolls. D. W. Johnston, John A. Colvin, Lionol C. Levy, Jr., A. A. Boyd, Thos. J.

Tlds concluded, it was order ed that the clerks of Presbyteries in making out statistical reports, conform their phraseology to that adopted by tho Assembly, and state that a “Presby tery consists of—ministers and— churches and has under its care Ac,” ROME FEMALE COLLEGE. The committee on the paper from the Trustees of this institution presented their report whioh was discussed at length. It is as follows: Tho committee to whom was referred tho paper from tlie Trustees of tlie Rome Female College beg leave to re port : That they have carefully considered tlie same, and find for tlie past nine years those iu cliargo of tlie college have been engaged in tho laud able work of providing means for tlie education of tlie daughters of tho Presbyterian ministers, and that during this time the daughters of over forty ministers, in eight different States, have shared in the benefits of this benevolont work. We further find that in view of tho increasing applications for aid in this direction the trustees havoprocured a new charter for tho institution, mak ing special provisions for tlie enlarge ment of this beneficent feature of thoir work, by providing for a permanont endowment fund, and for individual scholarships for this exclusive purpose, the Said funds to lie perpetuated by being turnod over to tho trustees of tlie Presbyterian Church in tlie United States, in the event the said collego shall from any cause cease to exist therefore Resolved, I. That the Synod would express thoir grateful sense of tlie bene fit and blessings that the officers of tlie college have by their past labors con ferred upon so many families of tlio beloved brethren in tho ministry. 2. That we earnestly hope that they may he nhle in tlie future to successful ly accomplish tlie pluns which they liavc devised, and thus extend and per petuate to coming generations tlie work which they have so nobly begun.

The continnance of the Russo- arand the squally look In the , ondltlon of France which may precipitate a revolution which may involve the whole of Europe, serve to depress the staple and produce stagnation in European markets.
