WEEKLY ENQUIRER. J <HIN II. NAKTIN, ... BltKor COLUMBUS: TUESDAY, MARCH 8, 1870. TICKMS OF Hi:BSCRIPTIO!V « One Year (in advance) ~ ••• U Tnr* Decline in Gold.- Tho daily tel egraphic report* of tho present w<ek have itdviRod tlie reader of the steady de cline that lmn hcon going on in the price of gold, an rated hr the greenback stand ard. It i« now oonaidorably lower than it ha* hcon at any time since our South ern people have been handling the na tional currency. An important question in. will the decline continue, or bo main tained ? On 11 jin point, tho New York Cinaneial Chronicle, of the 'Jotil of Feb ruary, says: Will Gold Advance?—The future of cotton in a measure dependa upon the course of gold during the next three months: consequently the inquiry as to tho turn the premium ia likely to take is important. Wo do not propose to solve the problem, but a few facts may help our readers to form an opinion for them selves. 1. The supply on the market is flow extremely larger, say about J§<70,0(M*,- irtHi; lienee not only can no interest be obtained for it, but owners are compelled to pay a considerable percentage for hav ing it curried. If this state of tilings continues, any upward movement does not appear probable. 1*. Last year, on account of the very small export of the precious metals, the country increased its stock of gold somewhere about IMHI. That the specie movamont the present year will show a similar result is for the following reasons not unlikely. i A.} The unfavorable condition of bust ness does not encourage large importa tions, and importers after their late losses are m a poor condition to run any great risk. It i. Our exports promimi during the coining three months nt least to be in excess of last year’s movement. We have on hand, for instance, 1-<>,0(MI bales more of cotton Ilian at this time a year ago,mid our receipts are likely to increase this excess. Tho movement of our bonds to Europe will probably be fully a.s large, if not larger, than during IH’.'.*, as our increased credit will increase the numbi i of investors oven nt tho advan ced price now current. For these ren- mouh the retaining of a large portion of our gold production this year, and thus increasing our supply is not improbable. The Government will undoubtedly pay out and sell about as much ns it receives bn duties, ho that its operations or m<. eessities will not interfere with the iiutu nil movement. Without, then, any large demand for gold, urn! with tho supply on the market increasing, is any decided re- action from tho present rate probable du ring the next three months? Of course a speculative movement might force gold up iu face of these facts. 'I he r.ufutthi municipal election, on Monday, resulted m the choice of G. A. l‘obc rls ns Mayor, and all the otln ollieers and aldermen chosen wei her vat ivos and white men, o: del men in tho 1th ward, whe is iu some doubt.

It aimed first to secure I memorial to Congre a reliablo Radical majority lure, and secondly to lengthen the terms j to require the present County Hnj of the Governor and Legislature for lw years longer. ButtJ»r. after a private ( school conference with Bullock, is reportcd by July I~ telegraph ss having addressed the House assessor on the 1th Inst, to the following effort: "lie considered the present State Gov ernment provisional, and held that official terms should commence with the admis sion of tho State. llo said that by a singular overnight tho Constitution of up at the tim Georgia contained a provision enabling tho Legislature to hold a perpetual lease of powor. To remedy this, he introduced investiguti an amendment, not by the direction of tion of j- the Reconstruction Committee, but with | school fu: tho concurrence of Homo members of if, { elusion th that no election take place until I *72, but I perint that thereafter no Legislature should have power to porpotuatfl itself.' Wo have not the Constitution handy, and will not now look it up to see wheth er lint tier correctly represented it in mak ing this statement at the prompting of Mullock, lint it is evident that if the term of the present Legislature is left in definitely, it was done so designedly by the Radical Convention. They wished to j defeated I prolong tho power of their parly if Hu Legislature should be Radical, but to limit the term to two years if Democratic Conservative. This game seems to have been a conceited one : it has been played ill most of tho “reconstructed' States. The Tennessee Radical Legisla ture the first to “reconstruct ’ held on BULLOCK NOW TRYING TO BUY UP HIE COUNTRY DEMOCRATIC PRESS. , Ji'Ul'T Ear.

A letter published by the Savannah Republican reports a fearful mortality hi Cullen county, from meningitis. One hundred and fifteen persons had dual, and a large number worn suffering. One family of nine lost eight of its number. People wore (lying from tho county. Cuimci.i: CoMiNii. A correspondent w i lies to the Savannah Republican as fol lows : “I learn from a friend in Hong Kong, under date of the 11 th January, that two Southern gentlemen, Messrs, (iift and Williams, wa re then there mak ing' arrangements to send ono thousand Chinese laborers to Savnnnanh and New Orleans. My correspondent adds that these gentlemen found no difficulty iu cn- gsgiug the Chinose. lie dooM not, how ever, specify the terms of their coll tracts." 'I lie Medical College of Georgia closed its exercises nt Aiigustn on Tuotnluy last. There were in nttoudnuee upon the lec tures HU pupils, of whom MS were from Georgia. The Graduating (Mass numbered It*, and we find at the bund of the list, in the official report, the iiamo of Issue Per kins Chaney, of Columbus, Gn. lie is a son of Dr. .1, L. Clionoy, of this city, mid we learn verbally that no graduate of the College over pnssed a mora creditable examination. Tho only other graduate from Columbus, or from this section of the State, was Isaac Cheney McCoy, of long alter the term preseribid by the Con stitutiou ; the Senate of Alabama has re solved to extend tho term <»f all its mem bers for two years longer, and half of them foui years; a similar game, we think, is on foot in Florida; and if the Radical Legislature of Louisiana has any notion of closing up soon, we have not soun any intimation of it The game seems to be to retain by fraud, ns long as possible, the power secured by usurpation and force. Great excitement prevailed at Steven non, Ala., a few days since, growing out of tho attempt to runout of tho plnco u negro man cohabiting with a white woman. Tho negro resisted several attempts to arrest him, und the negroes of the vicinity rallied to sustain him. lie was finally arrested and put under guard, the negroes making demoted rat ions towards rescuing him, and Die whiles turning out to guard liiru. A conflict being imminent, an ap plication was made for Federal troops, and limy were ordered from Huntsville. Mill before the arrival of tho troops about forty masked men rode into Stevenson, demanded the prisoner of the guards, ob tained mid it is supposed hung or shot lmn iu a swamp near by; though i mo account says that bo escaped from them in the swamp. At the last accounts the troops had arrived, iiiul all was quiet. Tho Griffin Star has reports of a most aggravated murder committed iu Mutts county on Saturday, tlu« L'lilh ultimo, old man named MeCluskey, seventy years of age, had gone out to hunt some of his misHiug cattle, and was murdered while out. Tho reports do not give accounts of tho manner of the murder, but say that it was committed by two negro brothers named Hit It and Taylor Marlow- ; that Midi is of rather small si/.e, about 2A years old, quick of speech and motion, with an im pudent look, and Iiiih his left arm mutila ted by a gin saw ; and that Taylor is also of small size, about ‘JU years of age, slow of speech ami motion, and of lighter col or than Midi.

In a few minutes nft< r this train left the freight depot, the Eufaula freight train started out. and, knowing nothing of the accident that had oe urred t«» the Columbus train, it ran full drive into the cars left standing on I the road, bursting them wide open and ! smashing' them to flinders. Ho there was ! if! the truck when about j long and valuable to those advertising the city, caused either by them, ilo afterwards privately selected some eight or ten more country papers, expending from £20,000 to £30,000 of the people’s money in this way.
