S»ati—Tho Stnate held no i
dny
House—Tbe House net at 9 o’clock a.
m., Speaker Camming in the •hair. Prey-
er was offered by Bev. Mr. Heidt.
Boll enll was diepensed with. Journal
of yesterday reed end approved.
Mr. Glean erase to e question of privi
lege sod offered e resolution asking for a
committee of three to investigate the
faots connected with the employment of
L. J. Glenn ft Son in the oese of' R. B.
Bullock, Governor, vs. N. L. Angier,
Treasurer, end report to this House.
Mr. Hoge, ebairmsu of the oommittee
appointed to investigate the. oondaot of
Bullock, stated that the report of rhe com
mittee would be corrected by adding tbe
facte connected with said employment,
and upon this statement, Mr. Glenn wtih-
drew the resolution. Mr. Hoge said it
was not the intention of the oommittee to
reflect upon the integrity of the gentle-
mau from Fulton, Mr. Glenn, that no one
doubted that the services were faitly ren
dered, bnt that the report of the oommit
tee included the nuuee of attorneys who
had been employed by Governor Bullock,
and the amounts paid them, beoauaa the
said Governor had no legal right to em
ploy any attorneys at all, that it was the
duty of the Attorney and Solicitor Gener
al to represont (he interests of the State,
and that no other counsel oould hare been
legally employed and paid out of the
Treasury of the Stale. Mr. Hoge stated
further that there was some language in
the report of the committee whieh be, os
an individual member of the same, did
not approve of, and disclaimed all inten
tion to reflect upon the good name of his
colleague, Mr. Glenn.
Mr. Bacon also arose to a question of
privilege and aaiil: “Mr. Speaker: I rise
to a question of privilege. I hold in my
band a copy of tho report of the commit
tee appoiuted to investigate the official
conduct of Bufus B. Bullock. In that
portion of the report relative to lawyers
who had received feea from Bullock oc
curs the following item: “A. O. Bacon,
for services rendered under executive or
der, #1250." I simply desire to say now
that thia statement is utterly untrue.
Since Bullock was elected Governor I
have never received one dollar out of the
treasury of the State on any account, ex
cepting my pay as Presidential elector in
and my per diem aad mileage as
member of this Legislature. On the con
trary the $1250 «*<r# offered to iue and 1
declined to receive it. As I shall have
something further to say on thia subject
when the report cornea before the House
in ita ordor 1 now forbear.”
Mr. Iloge stated that he was perfectly
satisfied from Mr. Bacon’s statement that
the item mentioned was erroneously put
in the report, and regretted the mistake,
lie aaid it was put iu upon information
derived from a member of the oommittee.
lie again disclaimed all intention to do
injustiee to any gentleman, said the com
mittee only deaired to discharge their
duty to the country, and that all errors
and inaccuracies in the report would be
oorreoted.
Mr. Payne, of Catoosa, a member of
the committee, also said that the state
ment of Mr. Baoon satisfied him that an
error had been made. There was evi
dence in tbe Executive office that Mr.
Baoon bad been employed by Gov. Bul
lock, and that tho item mentioned was
the resnlt of an impression on the minds
of some of the committee that Mr. Ba
oon had received the foe. Like Mr. Hoge,
he regretted tho mistake, and disclaimed
any intention to do gentlemen injustice.
Mr. Bussell announced the death of his
colleague, the Hon. John J. Kelley, of
Chatham, and offered a resolution ex
pressing the regret of thia House; that
each member thereof do wear the usual
badge of mourning during the session,
and that, as a token of respect to the
memory of the deoeased, this House do
now adjourn till 9 o'clock a. m. to-mor
row.
The resolution was unanimously agreed
to aud accordingly the House adjourned
till 9 o’clook a. m. to-morrow.

Death of an Excellent Lad?. —Wo
are igaiu called upon to ohrouiole the
dea*. u of a most excellent lady—one of tbe
first settlers of Columbus, him. Elisa
beth Andrews, relict of the late Bamuel
R. Audrews, passed away from earth at an
oarly hour yestorday morning—in the 04th
year of her Ago, after a brief attaok of
congestionjof tbe liver. The maiden uurno
of this lady was Day. Hhe was born in
Tennessee, but came to Columbus on the
22ml of February, 1827, where she has
since resided. In the following your
(182b) she was united iu marriage with
Mr. Samuel U. Audrews, who, up to the
time of his death, a few years since, was
reckoned among the loading citizons of
Columbus. Hhe became the mother of a
large fuinily of eons and daughters, most
of whom we boliove survive her. She
wiu: for some forty years a member of 8t.
Luke's (Methodist) church, and during
iho whole of tbAt long period, adorned
lior profession by an earnest and exempla
ry Christian life, and godly walk and con-
versa! ion. As a wife, mother, mistress,
neighbor and Christian, sho was all that
one would expect to find iu our very im
perfect and sin-cursod state. Bhe will be
missed in all tho relations of life, but
more especially ah a ministoring spirit in
t' u abi’ 'os of suffering and sorrow. We
have * •j doubt ahe has fully conquered
am! o. urootna tbo last of foes, and now
on joys tlm reward of her labors in the
Luradise of God. Her funeral takes plaoe
from St. Luke’s church at 10 o’clock.

glud to learn that hia crops—both of corn
am) cotton— are oxoellent. Hia oat orop
also, was splendid, he having saved up

Wo also hear that cotton is opening
freely on the place of Mr. S. D. Laney, a

Mr. Hoge said he liAd only made tbe

jf Mr. Morris for tho matter to bo settled,
if it was tho plea»ure of the House that
tbe investigation be mudo, bo would go
as any gentleman in detending the digni

Mr. Pon ottered as a substitute a reso

Mr. Morris bad violated no law or ordi

or whether upon the surface of tome
rudiuut heavenly orb, far out in the im

uf course none of ua can fully know until
the Houles of time shall drop from oar

oil such things from onr finite view; end
yet Ho hoe implanted so strong s hope
within iu, of hssvanly reunion and recog
nition after death, that no truly awaksnad
mind can seriously doubt that these shall
constitute n part, at least, of tha glory
which shall be revealed in ue hereafter.
We think, too, that this precious hope of
whioh we ue specking, is strengthened
and supported by the Boriptures; and w*
would cite in proof thereof the recogni
tion of the spirit of Samuel by Saul, tbe
parable of the rich glntton and poor Laz
arus, and th* identification of Moee* end
Elisa by th* three epee ties at th* time of
the transfiguration on th* mount. David
revived hie aoal with this hope at th*
death of hia ahiid, and Christiana in til
ages have drawn comfort from the Bible
doctrine. Skepticism, we know, present*
this objection: “How ean w* be happy if
bnt a portion of onr loved one* nr* saved,
and the remainder loot—if w* meet bnt
half of them in Heaven, and are awured
that the others, equally loved, have bean
thrust into Hell ?" But it is a contingency
which we wHl not trouble onr brain to
meat. In onr opinion, those who nr*
fortunate enough to b* numbered with the
redeemed of the Lord, will find them-
selves so overwhelmed in that dny with
n sense of God's love, aa to say “Amaa I”
to every one of Bis righteous judgment*;
for we ue satisfied that nothing will b*
allowed to enter into Heaven whieh can,

Hair Vigor,
For restoring to Gray Hair Hi

A dressing

restores faded
or gray hair
to its original
eolor, with tha
gloss and freshness of youth. Thin
hair is thickened, falling hair checked,
and baldness often, though not always,
cured by its use. Nothing can restoca
the hair where the follicles are de«
stroyed, or the glands atrophied and
decayed; but such as remain can ha
saved hy thia application, and stimu
lated into activity, so that a new
growth of hair is produced. Instead
of fouling the hair with a pasty sedi
ment, it will keep it clean and vigorous.
Its occasional use will prevent the haic
from turning gray or failing off, and
consequently prevent baldness. Tha
restoration of vitality it gives to tha
scalp arrests and prevents the forma
tion of dandruff, which is often so un
cleanly and offensive. Free from those
doloterious substances which maka
some preparations dangerous and inju
rious to tbo hair, the Vigor can only
benefit but not harm it. If wanted
merely for a HAIR DRESSING,
nothing else can bo found so desirable.
Containing neither oil nor dye, it doe*
not soil white cambric, and yet la*ts
long on tho hair, giving it a rich, glossy
lustre, and a grateful perfume.

Cherry Pectoral,
For Diseases of the Throat and Lungs*
■uoh as Coughs, Colds* Whooping

Among tho great
discoveries of modem
science, few are of
more real value to
mankind thsn this ef
fectual remedy for all
diseases of the Throat
and Lungs. A vast;
triul of ita virtues,
throughout thU and
other countries, has
shown that it does
surely and effectually
control them. The testimony of our best cltf-
zous, of nil classes, establishes the fact, thst
Cherry Pectoral will and does relieve and
cure tho afflicting disorders of tho Throat and
Lungs beyond any other medicine. The most
dangerous affections of tho Pulmonary Organs

licved, were they not proven beyond dispute.
As a remedy it is adequate, on which the publics
may rely for full protection. By curing Coughs*
the forerunnors of more serious disease, it saves
unnumbered lives, and an amount of suffering
not to be computed. It challenges trial, and con-v
vinces the most sceptical. Every family should
keop it on hand us u protection against the early
nnd unperceived attack of Pulmonary Affections,
which ure easily met at flr«t, but which become
incurable, nnd too often fatal, if neglected. Ten
der lungs need tills defence; and it is unwise to
bu without it. As a safeguard to children, amid
tlio distressing diseases which beset the Throat
mu' Chest of childhood, Cherry Pectoral
is i "aluable; for, by its timely use, multi
tude- are rescued from premature graves, and
saved o the love and affection centred on them.
It acts speedily and surely against ordinary colds,
securing sound uml health-restoring sleep. No
one will suffer troublesome Influeaxa and pain
ful Bronchitis* when they kuow how easily
they can be cured.
Originally the product of long, laborious, and
successful chemical investigation, no cost or toil
is spared in mnking every bottle in the utmost
possible perfection. It may be confidently re
lied upon as possessing all the virtues it has ever
exhibited, and capable of producing cures aa
memorable as the greutest it has ever effected.
