TUESDAY MORNING, fUVY 20, 1869.
The Turner Examination.
The decision of the examining Court in this
case, it will be seen, wi deferred again jester,
day till thin morning, when new testimony for
the defence from abroad is expected to be pro-
diced. One of these witnesses is reported
among ontaidem to be Marian Harris, the re
ported paramour and accomplice of Turner.
Rumors among outsiders are to the effect that
the case has assumed the aspect of a party fight;
but as the whole of it, from beginning to end, is
confined to the so-cfiled Republican family—as
the crime—the arrest—the prosecution and the
witnesses, (except a feeble attempt to lug in
outsiders who know nothing about the matter)
are confined to members of the Radical party,
we can see no use of making the case of Tomer
a matter of party championship, except it might
be to save tie shame and mortification of an
nnfit appointment; and this cannot be done.
That point is settled, and it will be well for the
powers that be not to make a fight on any
such issue. It is one of those subjects which
will not bear stirring. However, we shall see
what we shall see.
Magazines.
The Galaxy for August has the eleventh chap
ter of Put Yourself In his Place, by Chas. Eeade
—Feathered Rife—The Race for Commercial Su
premacy in Asia—Prince. Napoleon—A Paper
on Mineral Waters) by Dr. Draper—How They
Keep House at Compeigue—and numerous oth
er articles. Shelton & Co., New York.
Woods' Household Magazine of Knowledge,
Virtue and Temperance is a monthly of forty-
eight pages, printed at Newburgh, New York.
Heat jx Sayansah.—The Morning News and
Daily Advertiser having stated that the mercu
ry last week rose to 10f>, a correspondent of the
Republican says it was only'nincty-eight under
fairer teats, and the Republican says it was only
ninety-six, and ninety-four in some places in
his office—and thinks that was below some
places in the interior. Wo do not think Ma
con has reported so high os three figures yet,
and all oar Macon readers say onr reports ore
regularly two or three degrees above the mar
ket. In the “heated term” of last week it was
warmer in all, or very nearly all, the Northern
and Western cities than in Macon, or most
other places in Georgia.
Woman Softbaoe.—Another convention of the
advocates of woman suffrage was held at Sarato
ga last Thursday, where there were much speak
ing by the gentlo sex. The president, Mrs. Gage,
called upon delegates to give in their Christian
names—not their husbands' names. Mrs. Mor
ton contended that women eonld dp military
duty, and tho cause of the North would havo
been hopelessly lost in the field, bntfor the wo
men. We know it bos bees a case long settled
by the Radicals that the Union cause would have
been lost bat for the negroes.
TazAsurtx Reposts.—The Treasury officials
are confident that tho continued comparatively
low disbursements, combined with the large re
ceipts from customs and internal revenue, will
have the effect of making another highly favora
ble exhibit in the next publio debt statement.—
Gold and currency balances are still very heavy,
the former .being oyer seventy million, and the
latter thirty-six million. Since the first of the
month receipts from customs have been $7,084,-
000, and from internal revenue $20,282,000.
The Fbksch Cable.—St. Pierre and Miquelon
aret two islands south of Newfoundland, with an
area of 106 square miles, and constituting the
sole remaining French possessions in North
America. On a fine beach connecting these
two islands, the French Trans-AtlAntio cable is
brought ashore—thence across Fortune Bay to
Newfoundland. At this moment we see no evi
dence pro or oon that the cable is in working
order.
A W*rtDfo.—At high noon to-day (Monday,)
wo have a glorious promise of a wetting—a good
substantial soaking. A heavy sqnall from the
Southwest has given the horizon such a leaden
canopy of clouds as has not been seen in this
region for weeks. It looks far more like a gene
ral rain than common, but all signs fail in dry
times. Rater—and so failed these!
Vicar Watee.—R. W. Hunt A Co,, havo the
genuine Vichy water in bottles—from the cele
brated French Spring of that name. There is
no doubt that it is genuine. It resembles Con
gress water a good deal. Is charged to about
tho samo extent with carbonic acid gas and is
perhaps a little less saline in taste.
Extbaobdzxasx Passage.—Tho Canard steam
er Russia, Captain Rott, made the last outward
trip in seven days, twenty-one hours and twenty
minutes, deducting four hours and ten minutes
. difference in longitude. This is the quickest
trip across the Atlantic ever known.
Queen Victoria sent an autograph letter to
Mr. George Peabody os soon as she heard of
his departure from England,in which she thank
ed him forHris many benevolent acts, and ex
pressed a hope for his early return in good
health to England.
A WTO, to a Gxoboia.—The Cincinnati Com
mercial says: Intelligent athorities in Georgia
estimate that the com crop in that State will
fall at least eight millions of bnshels short of
supplying home needs the present year. The
crop however promises well, what there is of it.
Cheap Rtvrso.—The people of New Orleans
pay from 6 to 12 cents for beef. It is brought
from Texas in refrigerators, and is perfectly
sound and of the best quality.
A RmrmtE of Cabefcl Attention to the
needs of the traveling public have won univer
sal commendation for the American House, Bos
ton, controlled for nearly a generation by Rewis
Rice, Esq.
A Horrid Scene
Among the details of the late accident on the
Erie Railroad are the following:
Mr. Gibson, a passenger, says of the burning
of the smoking car, that in it, wedged in his
seat, by the heap of broken timbers, sat the Rev.
Mr. Halleck, of New York City, perfectly unhurt,
but unable to extricate himself from the wreck.
In ewlm accents and perfectly collected tones,
. he told us to get an ax to try to cut an opening
in the side of the car. We searched around and
obtained one from a house by the roadside, but
it was so blunt that we could do nothing with it.
We worked and strove to liberate the nnfortn
nate gentleman who sat there, sound in limb,
watching the approach of the angry flames.—
Nearer and nearer they came until his hair be
gan to crisp and bum and his skin to crack; then
when we in like manner found the heat unbear
able, we reluctantly retired—compelled to leave
this poor gentleman, with his eight fellow-suf
ferers to their terrible fate. We moved off until
all was over. Nine persons were thus burned to
deafh and nine others injured more or less
severely. Another passenger says: “I heard
the little children screaming for their mother
and the passengers who were in the ruins calling
for help and groaning with pain. An ax was got
and one or two were actually chopped out of
their imprisonment. Most of the passengers in
ehis car were killed or their bodies consumed or
injured. I should think there were sixteen or
The State Fair.
We hear that some of our citizens object to
the site chosen for the State Fair, as too distant
from town, and, on that account, lees likely to
benefit the trade of the city than if it were more
contiguous. The great point with every body
interested in Macon should be to secure the very
best locality and accommodations for the exhi
bition, and when that is done, the best has been
done for all interests. But the truth is, the
site of the Fair will be nearer town than any
State Fair we know of—in point of distance.
We can at this moment call to mind no similar
site of a State Fair which is not at a greater dis
tance from town than this one.
But what, (so far as all practical purposes are
concerned) constitutes remoteness or nearness
in the locality of such an exhibition ? It is sim
ply convenience and cheapness of transportation.
Measured by this rule, the site proposed leaves
little to be desired. The distance there will be
accomplished iif ten minutes and at a cost of ten
or fifteen cents. With a train plying back and
forth every half hour, the distance of two miles
will be so easily and cheaply surmounted, that
we have no donbt it will be rather an attraction
than a hindrance. It will be a pleasant ride
which town people and visitors will certainly
feel to be at least no obstacle to as frequent al
ienations of place as they would brake if it were
but a quarter of a mile by highway.
On the other hand by carriage, the distance,
a mile and a half, is not greater than wonld
constitute a pleasant drive, and it is over a road
which seems to be the most popular as a car
riage drive. When one is at pains to go by
carriage a distance of less than this wonld
hardly pay for the trouble and expense of pre
paration. We think it clear that the site in
question is absolutely preferable, in respect to
convenience of access to any one half a mile
distant and not to be reached by railway. We
hope, therefore, that all who have formed im*
pressiona unfavorable to the locality selected,
will think over these suggestions and examine
for themselves the building and grounds. If
they will do this, we believe they will be fully
satisfied with tho decision ^f the Executive
Committee.
The truth is, Macon may just ns well divest
herself at once of all fear there will not be peo
ple enongh within her corporate limits, and pre
pare to do her utmost to accommodate those
who will come. The accommodations for tran
sient visitors in a town of this size are, of
course, somewhat limited. A thousand will
strain hotel capacity—that is to say, a thousand
more than ordinary. Bat we have to provide
for many thousand, and it is going to tax aH the
capacity of the people—public and private—to
provide for the pressure. There is but one
right course in this business, and that is to take
hold of it man fashion—bade tho Executive
Committee to the utmost, and determine that
Macon shall have no reason to blush for any
failures or abort comings on that occasion.

The matters which engage a Georgia Editor's

Washington, July 19.—Gen. Wirt Adams and OoL
Harper P. Hunt arrived to-day in the interest of the
Yazoo Valley railroad, from Vicksburg to Memphis.
They depart northward to-morrow.

A large amount of tobacco stamps, intended by

The Treasury commenced the issue of new fifteen

From Hew York.
New York, July 19—The 'International Conven
tion of Young Men’s Christian Association, at Port

movement towards ‘ educating colored clergymen to
preach to the colored people in the South was
inaugurated, and large amounts subscribed on the
spot to farther it.
It is reported that a new Cuban camp has Been
established west of Hoboken. There are said to
be two hundred men of the Goodmen’s Island ex

farms in yonr section that are for aile.
Yours truly, K. W. Flower, Jr.
We get plenty of personal appeals of this
kind, which ore gratifying inasmuch as they
illustrate the great degree of attention Georgia
is just now attracting among the Northern peo
ple ; and we tell onr readers this feeling has
only just began. We respond to all snch calls
for information to the fullest extent practicable,
but they are something too numerous to permit
answer by letter. The inquiries in reference
to lands are so great that our attention has been
attracted to the matter of digesting a method by
which buyers and sellers could be placed in
ready communication. As to the opportunities
for industrious young men to prosper in the
South and to become rich, they are as numer
ous as twenty acre lots. It is true we havo
plenty of poor young men here—young men out
of employment and waiting for something to
turn up. Bat they aro of the sort who don’t
like work. Every young man willing to pay the
price of wealth in energetic labor and economy
can, with God’s blessing, accomplish his pur
poses.
From Columbus.
The Enquirer, of Sunday, says the late rains
were' very partial; while this particular section
has been favored with frequent and copious
showers, our neighbors but a few miles distant
have had but little, and many of them have
crops that are now suffering from drought. The
Son of Saturday has the following:
Bilious Fever.—There are numerous cases
of this pestful disease around Columbus just
now. It doesn’t make one dangerously ill, or
confine them many days, but it is sufficiently
headachinglv. ferverishly. weakishly and feel-
bad-alloverably that you find it’s no use fighting
the little fiend and so quinine and pill yourself
until he is satisfied. The same paper of Sunday
says: If anything happened worthy of mention,
we failed to hear of it. Some few drops of rain
fell about 3 p.m. The thermometer at Spear’s
store, at no time of the day, indicated higher
than 91 degrees, and at 5 p. m., the mercury
had fallen to 88 degrees. The stock of cotton in
Columbus is now less than at any time since the
war.
A New Enemy of Cotton.
from He Memphie Ledger, July HlA.]
CoL J. W. Booth, of the Winona (Mississippi)
Democrat, gave us, yesterday, rather a graphic
description of a new and heretofore unknown
enemy to cotton, which has appeared upon his
plantation and others in Carroll county. The
monster is about the size of a fire-fly, but there
the similarity oeases. It has a small trunk like
a young elephant, and munches the cotton forms
like a hungry j— mule at a fodder stack. The
Colonel, on visiting his place the other day, dis
covered the invader in great force, and conclu
ded to catch a few of them to put in a bottle
and bring to Memphis, but they were not to be
bottled. He chased the whole tribe for an
hour, without capturing one of them, and gave
it up in disgust, after breaking down an acre or
so of cotton. The new anatomy is constructed
with a spring in his back, after the fashion of
*t.«* famous bug classically defined as a jack
snapper, by which it is enabled to jump six or
eight feet with the celerity of a flea. It seems
to have been built for jumping cotton rows.
From North Carolina.
WminxoroN, July 19.—Julius 8. .Leach, son of
Hon. James M. Leach, was drowned at Topsail
Sound, while bathing in the surf, on Saturday.
The Republican party of. this county has divided
into two formidable factions—each wing has can
didates in the field, to fill the vacancy occasioned
by the resignation of General L. G. Estes. The
contest is the most bitter ever known in tho history
of this county. One of the moat prominent lead
ers of one faction, in a speech to-day, predicted
that there wonld bo bloodshed before the campaign
is over. This is entirely a family quarrel, in which
Conservatives and Domocrata take no part, and
will run no candidate. The most extrems wing of
the Radical party, led by George T. French, and
other Northern whites, nominated a negro candi
date; tbs other faction, composed almost entirely
of negroes, nominated a white candidate. It has
been found necessary to station a strong police
force at all meetings held in this city. Most bit
ter personalities are indulged in by many of the
speakers, and several alight collisions have already
occurred.
From the West.
St. Louis, July 19 Omaha reports say that Gen.
Carr’s recent Indian victory was more complete
than at first statpd. Foot hundred hones and
mules, a large quantity of powder, five tons of dried
buffalo, and $900 were captured. The money was
given to Mrs. Weizel, a white woman recaptured.
This was the same body of Indians that fought
Forsyth, hat year, at Helena.
A Montana dispatch says Major Eastman and an
other man were attacked and wounded recently a
few miles from Fort Benton. Tho citizens, in re
taliation, killed three Indians who were in town.
From New Orleans.
New Orleans, July 19.—Messrs. Faures and
Sonsdes, partner and chief clerk of the house of
Contourie A Co.,against whom warrants were issued
on the 15th, delivered themselves np to Marshal
Packard this morning, and wars released under a
five thousand dollar bond.
One hundred and fifty-six thousand cigars, seized
by Collector Btockdale, and libeled by the United
States Court, were taken possession of by Marshal
Packard to-day.

A CALL For Twenty Dollars per share, in addition
ta the highty per cent, heretofore called, is made
upon the Stockholders of this Company, payable on
the 10th of September, 2869, to the Treasurer of the

The attention of Stockholders is directed to the
aborWcall. It will doubtless be gratifying to the
Stockholders to learn that a contract has been signed
for finishing their road. A large force, which will be
greatly increased in a few days, has already been
placed on the unfinished portion of the road, and the
work of construction will be energetically prosecuted
until the line is completed to Macon
It is earnestly desired, therefore, that every Stock
bolder will contribute his aid to the speedy comple
tion of this work, by promptly responding to the c-all
now made for the final instalment.
