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

This old man, who died last Saturday
In Macon, Ala., loft a will which pro
vided nothing for his widow. 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. This was
generous, although a law suit incurring

as made the will had not been soon
though tho heirs felt confident that
such a disposition of the property was
made in it as is mentioned above.

T. w. Urine*. Ike Nominee for Menntor.
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?

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.

Cotton Situation.—On the week Liver
pool has slightly advanced, New York Is
quotably unchanged, and our market has
gone up appreciably because or a better de
mand. Crop estimates vary. The cot
ton exchanges make the probable total over
4.000,000 bales, the Agricultural Department
about 4.400,000 If the season continues favor
able, while private estimates vary all the
way from 4,000,000 to 4,700,000. They all claim
an increase In the area planted, and some
States have yields greater than last year and
many less. 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. The receipts at this point have
fallen off. This Is due to the pretty weather
which keeps labor at home gathering the
cotton in the fields. Sales for the week have
been considerable.
Comparison With Last Year. —The
United States ports receipts are 805,343 less
bales; the exports, 79,000 less; the stock,
225,119 less; Columbus receipts,6.007 less;
