THE CONSTITUTION. ATLANTA, GEORGIA, FEBRUARY 8. C3T Gov. IVarmoutb, or Louisiana, states 'jiat be has been offered tnUO each to ap prove two bills passed by the Legislature. — ■■ ty Ex Governor Allen Trimble, of Ohio, died last week, 87 years old. Fora quarter of a century he had completely withdrawn himself from public life. ..... ... ■ ■■ ■ ty Wright, the negro elected as Asso ciate Judge of the Supreme Court of South Carolina, resigns his seat as State Senator to accept the Judgeship. ty Secretary Boutwell denies that be has ever given the slightest Intimation to the Wall Street brokers about proposed movements In gold by tho government. ty The disorders in Tennessee seem to still continue. The Radicals having lost the victory in the late contest are now in augurating Ku-KIuxi«m on a large scale. Governor Senter basasked from the Legis lature special power to stop the lawlessm A Plump Falsehood. The Washington correspondent of the Philadelphia Press,one of Forney’s"my two papers, both dailies,” contains the fol lowing unmitigated falsehood about the charges against Gov. Bullock: It Is now generally conceded by the Dem ocrats that their object in makiDg these charges having failed, the falsity of the charges It admitted. Xo such concession has been made, while the charges are believed and urged by Re publicans, a fact that removes them above partisanship. Let the Governor hold in a while, shall have his Committee. Hoar Rejected. The following statement, showing the decisive rejection by the Senate of Mr. Hoar's nomination to the Supreme Bench, shows thst the Senate has deliberately and boldly flung down the gauntlet to President Grant. That functionary is not apt to forget it. If he ever gets the power, we may look for open warfare between him and the Senate. Now, let us see if the Southern Republi- cans have any showing with this adminis tration; or whether Northern “loilty” is to monopolize all the flesh-pots: The nomination of Attorney-General Hoar for the vacancy on the Supreme Court bench, occasioned by the death of Just-cc Wayne. wa3 taken tip in Executive session of the Senate, this evening, and he was rejected by nine majority. The vote stood, for conllnnition. 24: against con firmation, 33. All of the New England Senators present voted in the affirmative, except Edmunds, of Vermont. All of the Southern Senators, except Warner, of Ala bama, and Gilbert, of Florida, voted no. Mr. Williams, of Oregon, was the only Senator from the Pacific coast who voted aye. Both New York Senators voted no; also, all the Democrats. Morton was not present, but would have voted aye. Sher man was. also, not present. It is definitely known that Mr. Hoar’s present intention is to remain in the Cabinet. BY TELEGRAPH. ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCHES. He Tito New Order of Tilings. Mtssissim.—The House has passed idea ticsliy the same bill admitting Mississippi as Virginia. An attempt was made to ad mit her without condition, but failed. Mr. Brooks alluded to the fact that a General of the army in command of the State bad used his troops to have himself elected Senator. Brigham Young in Danger. Mr. Cullom, from the Committee on Ter ritories, has reported a bill that makes in competent as jurors, all polygapsists: that makes concubinage and polygamy a crime punishable by a 810,000 fine or five years in the penitentiary; forbids polygamists holding office or being citizens; and pro- Mrs. Revels, the wife of the colored Sen--..... ator elect from Mississippi, wss in the Sen-1 hib,ts consanguineous marriages ate gallery to-day, while her husband oc- cu pied a seat on one of the sofas on tb*, floor. Messrs. Sumner and Tipton pro ceeded to the gallery and were introduced to Mrs Revels by George T. Downing, the o>>t< rman.—tf. T. Timet. Good for Sumner and Tipton, but bad for Lady Revels and her sponsor, the black oyeterman. According to ail accounts Sumner has not hitherto been adequate to feminine revels. Mrs. Sumner, way off in Europe, will now learn that black fanaticism is stronger than the white love with the emasculated Puritan. Tho ICcign of Crime. Nothing in the history of Christian cities —the worst capitals In tho worst ages of the past—can equal or approach tho dread- fill prevalence of crime in tills metropoli- tan smamhle. Scarcely a day passes with out its frightful story. -Already in the one month of this year we have chroneied a murder or attempted murder for every day in the month, and not one of these crimes hut seems inspired by a spirit of fiendish savagery equal to the worst act men or devils could conceive.—[X. Y. Her at d. 3d. The mild neighborhood of the above se rene condition of tilings would be a God send to Governor Bullock and his faction in Georgia. Poor Adkins’ ghost has the whole duty to perform, unless the Exccu tive will tske Tweedy’s and Blodgett's riots for Democratic Ku-Klnxism. Georgia Affairs. Our telegraphic dispatches state that on to-morrow tiie Conservative Republican Committee will have a hearing before the henate Judiciary Committee on Georgia af fairs. It appears that Gov- Bullock, Con ley. Tweedy, Clift, Parrott, Gibson, narrai, Rice and others, called upon President Grant, and satisfied him that it was right to act aside the election or Messrs. Hill and Miller. So confident arc the revolutionists of success, that rumors were current yester day afternoon that Gov. Bullock had tele graphed that ail was well; that there would an election for State House officers as well Senators; Blodgett and Akerman are to be the Senators; that the office of Surveyor General of the State must be re-established and a negro elected to fill it. Radicalism North and Sonth. The other day the Bullock Radicals in the Georgia Legislature refused to vote for a resolution for a general amnesty in Geor gia. The New York Times, a Northern Radi cal paper, in speaking of Mississippi and Texas, thus cauterizes the proscriptivo bit terness of its Southern brothers, who are more venomous to their own section than the distant stranger: This is heavy on Brigham Young the much married. The idea of Congress docking down liis wives is a furious out rage on the old fellow’s rights. The only chance we see for him is to invite Congress to Utah, and buy the concern up with his marital superabundance, or else migrate a free country. If he can only stave off action for while, however, and let Frothingbam and Beecher have time to inoculate the country with their McFarland-Rich ardson notions, we think the whole coun try will embrace Mormonism Seriously, we think this timely. The existence of polygamy in this civilized land and age, under the very eyes of our government, iso disgrace.to our civiliza tion. One Object of tlio Reconstruction. When tho whole purpose and plan of the present reconstruction, with all its recent workings, are laid bare—if that day ever comes—the exposure will be revolting be yond measure. The faction of Governor Bullock lias an avowed organ now, that defends evbry act of the faction. Glossing over the bideous- ness of purpose in a meaningless frotli-ol words, it occasionally drops an Intimation, that rightly understood, shows the plot of its masters. It uses, in one article, these words: “It is apparent that the members of our State Legislature have just entered upon the terms for which they were severally elect ed.” This simply means that the present Gu bernatorial term now begins, and that thus two years more of power are to be tricked out of the people of Georgia. This is the Radical substitute for an election by the people. Despairing of return to office by the suffrage of free and virtuous citizens, at liberty to express their choice, this revo lutionary scheme was tried to prolong tho lease of rule. This is the pith of the per tinacity with which a sovereign State lias been claimed to be a provisional depend ency. The very men that should -have striven heroically for the preservation of the com monwealth from degradation have most ignominiously sought her disgrace and ruin. The Laborer Gets His Hire. The dispatches yesterday, told us that Dr. Bard, late editor of the New Era, had been appointed Governor of Idaho Terri tory. The Doctor certainly clung to the admin istration with unvarying fidelity, and well won his reward. Grant had no more de voted, faithful servant than him. Through good and ill repute, amid howling odium and rattling obloquy, the Doctor swung on Congress, we repeat, has now, ip the cases | to Grant. That functionary was the all- k-1 or a*-™** •- P«- - • • - — " -rot these States, the Grand Matchless Mogul ot righteous should do more than accept It should make their acceptance, and the re-entry of their representatives, the occa sion for a general proclamation of amnes- tv. L-t the whole matter be settled at a single blow. Instead of peddling out par dons piecemeal any longer. let all political disabilities be struck off nt once, so that the work of reconstruction may be sound and complete. If the Forty-first Congress would do this, it would make its present srssion forever memorable in the history of the country. e — wn ► Editorial Correspondence. Macon, Gi, February 7,1870. Dear Constitution: Brown's Hotel, not withstanding its late and large enlarge ment, keeps full. This shows two things: the value of merit, and the growing business of the day. Let Atlanta take the lesson. Her hotel room is by no means large enough. Nothing wonld be of more ad vantage to our enterprising city than a large, floe hotel. Those we have I do not mean to disparage, but no one can donbt that we do need more of them. Xo invest ment will pay better. The city Is outstrip ping its hotels at an inconceivable rate. I think that Atlanta would support remu neratively as fine and mammoth a public house as the Galt in Louisville, or the Max well in Nashville. 1 can also safely predict that uniess something b done, Atlanta will fail to en tertain tbc crowd at'the Fair this year. Macon groaned nnder the harden. I see no prospect for Atlanta doing better with out preparation, and very extensive prep aration at that. THE LATE OUTRAGE. The late attempted outrage by a negro upon the wife of a distinguished divine has occasioned much comment. Incorrect versions of the affair got into the distant papers, and bad to be contradicted; the Telegraph and Messenger sensibly urges that it is impolitic to keep such matters ont of the borne print. It is better to give the true facts, omitting names in cases like this. The report# that travel are exagger ated, and the real details must get out, if no other way in correction of tbc false ru mors. The account given in the Consti tution was substantially correct. The ne- government, for whose peccadilloes and short-comings he had no treasonable eye; and whose mighty barrel of patronage might some day.be tapped by the persever ing adorer Well, we are glad that our old Republi can confrere has got a slice. He labored hard for it, in season and ont, night and day. sleeping and waking. He was a good fellow out of his politics; pleasant, good- natured, genial, companionable. He could take a harder bit, professionally, and smile more sweetly, about it privately, than any editor we ever met. He had learned the very essence of the art of paragraphing, and kept up a shower of nettles upon bis foe, to which Governor Bullock can testify with great unction. He also singed sorely bis snccessor a year or two back when the Opinion and the Era grappled in daily skirmishes. Peace to his gubernatorial bones. At length he reposes his wandering limbs upon a throne. His declining years can be passed in calm contemplation of royal beatitudes. All Hail! Governor Bard! Tlio Attorney-General and Geor gia. The following communication was to day addressed to the Senate by Attorney- General Hoar, in reply to the resolution asking for copies of any communication sent by him to any of the United States military authorities since the passage of the last act relative to the readmission of Georgia, and any opinion as to the eligibil- ty of the members of the Legislature of Georgia: “I have given no official opinion in writ ing in relation to the affairs in Georgia, and have not in my possession a copy of any communication such as is referred to by the resolution. The questions arising in relation to the reconstruction of Geor gia have sometimes been the subject of con versation between the President, the Sec retary, of War, the General of the Army and myself; and I have expressed opin ions upon some of the questions, but not in such a formal and official manner that I understood they were to be the subject of action. On one occasion, in conversation with the President, the General of the Ar my was present, and I intimated to him the views I took upon one or two questions, gro says that be mistook the person. He and at his request made a short memoran- bad bad an association with a colored wo man of light hue, about the size of the white lady.

In the Senate, the Committee on Com merce held a meeting to-day. and among other things, considered the levees of Mis sissippi. The matter was finally refer red to a sub-committe, of Senators Buck ingham and Kellogg. Wilmington, February 5.—Last night was one of the most terrible ever experi enced here. A cold rain was falling and a fearful Etorm raging ail night. Thus far. fonr marine disasters are reported off the coast, all occurring yesterday. The schooner Eleanor, from Baltimore, with a cargo of fertilizers, consigned to O. G. Parsley & Co., of this city, went ashore at 4 p. )i. a few miles north of Fort Fisher, and immediately went to pieces. Five men, supposed to be her entire crew, were drowned. When the vessel broke up, these five men were seen clinging to portions ot the wreck, but in a few moments were washed off by the heavy sea, and lost. The other three vessels are the schooners Sam. C. Eborn, Capt.' Farrow, of Hyde county. Racer, Capt. Hatcbeli, of Elizabeth City, and Ray, ot Hyde county, with car goes of corn, l consigned to merchants here, it is not known definitely, but some hopes are entertained of saving some of their car goes. No reports have been received of the re sult of the terrible gale last night, but it is thought the loss of vessels and life will be fearful. Philadelphia, February 3.—Three fires occurred to-day. Loss 820,000. Louisville, February 6.—Prentice will be buried with Masonic honors, to-mor row. New York, February 5.—Mr. Stoughton, of Prlnco Arthur’s party, denies tho assas sination story.

Marseilles. February 5.—Two houses fell, crushing twelve persons. All are not believed to he killed. Two have been taken from the ruins. Rome, February 6 —The Ecumenical Council met yesterday. Five addresses were delivered. The Committee de fide have about completed their work. Washington, Feb.-7.—A Delegation of Georgians (?) composed of Conley, Presi dent of the State Senate, Speaker pro tern Tweedy, Judge Gibson, Parrot and Har- rall, of the Supreme Court, Representative Clift. Mr. John Rice and others, called on President Grant'this morning. In an in terview of an hour’s duration, they dis cussed the political situation fully. The President stated that although liis first impressions were that the action of the Legislature, previous to the expulsion of the colored members, was legal and bind ing, and the election of Senators to hold good, he was satisfied, after more mature reflection, that the present legislative or ganization was the first, and that action should be commenced de novo. He in quired who the Republicans would elect Senators; to which the Delegation respon ded. that no nominations had yet been made, but they would probably be made on Monday, and the election take place on Tuesday. No doubt they would be loyal Republicans. The President said both he and Sherman bad entire confidence in Terry, and he would fully advise them of the situation in a few days, as he would be here on public business. The Delegation also expressed confidence in Terry’s judgment and abil- ity. Tlio resolution offered on Monday last, declaring that Constitutional authority to levy taxes does not include any power to impose duties other than for the collection of revenue, and that tariff levied for any other purpose than that of revenue, espe*- cially if levied to foster and encourage one section of country-or one class of citizens at the expense of another section or class, is unauthorized by the Constitution, and unjust to the great body of the people, and injurious to almost all industries, and di recting the Ways and Means Committee to prepare a vote accordingly was tabled by a vote of 89 to 77. The Indian appropriation bill was re ported and made the special order for Tues day. It appropriates 83.000.000 against $6,- 000.000 last year. The amount estimated for was 83.000,000. The death of Representative Hoag was announced in both nouses. Revenue receipts to-day 8847,000. There are 27 cases of yellow fever on board the Seminole. The fever is abating, the cases are mild. The Seminole leaves Key West for Portsmouth. The Senate Judiary Committee will hear the Conservative Republican delegation on Wednesday in regard to Georgia affairs. Trumbull has notified the Bullock delega tion to he present. The Elections Committee has indeffl- nitely postponed Segar, who claims a seat from Virginia at large. In the House Ridgeway introduced a bill to repeal the act, prescribing the oath of office, and one also for the removal of political disabilities Irotn the people of Virginia. Weeker introduced a bill to discontinue the freedman’s bureau. Dispatches to Secretary Fisk, from Ha vana, say one American citizen was killed and two wounded there yesterday. No particulars. Petitions were presented in the Senate in favor of an additional amendment grant' ing female suffrage.

A bill to protect Congressmen from im portunity, and to preserve the independ ence of the several apartment*. The census bill was also discussed with out final action. Macon, February 7.—Great indignation is manifested bv the people over the state ment of the Atlanta Intelligencer, a pre tended Democratic paper, that they en dorse the designs of the Bullock faction. The Intelligencer is in the pay of Bullock. The people ask Gingress to give them the benefit of a fair 'construction of the act to promote reconstruction, and save them from plunder and ruin. The people ask Congress to carry out its own act in good faith. Montgomery, February 7.—The Ala bama and Chattanooga railroad bill passed the House, with the amendment that twp million dollars of State bonds should be loaned in place of three millions, as was provided in the original Senate bill. The Senate will undoubtedly concur ie the House amendment. Savannah, February 7.—The steamship Oriental, from Boston, to-day was towed in port by the British brig Helen, from New York for Wilmington.

WASHINGTON SOCIETY, A Kacy Picture ol' the Beau Monde. If toilets of perfect Parisian taste are for' midable, if it is an ordeal to enter a room where every woman is complete in style and freshness of toilet, where the nicest purity of black and white distinguishes the gentleman, and dress coats have that grace ful clinging curve at the back of the waist whicli marks the work of an artist, then it is sufficient to go through a presentation at one of these evenings in really good so ciety. An illuminated card assigns your partner and seat at table, and-if the bouquet at you plate, and tho cotnia design on the dinner card don’t give you something io say to your partner, keep still and gain a discreet reputation. You will probably find yourself vis-a-vis with one oi the gentle manly attaches whose name sounds so like those in Willis’ letters, or the modern Bel- gravian novel, while tho great people’: names are so mediocre and' proper. Ed ward Thornton, Esq., sounds like one of T. S. Arthur’s heroes, and Minister Roberts needs all the prelude of Senor Don Mau- ricio Lopez to give the high-sounding Spanish pride. IIow completely the Eng lish attaches represent the Belgravian of the London magazines—their hair parted just a line off the exact center, their soft eyes only one degree firmer than those of their sisters, wliilp their beautiful long side- whiskers remind one of “Care's Willows.” Fine blades often have velvet sheaths. The Spanish gentlemen one recognizes by their close-shorn black heads and smooth faces, all courtesy, inevitable pride and se- cretivcness; eyes that, like those of their women, betray a hundred intrigues, he- eause they seek to conceal so much. The exquisite politeness of the South Ameri cans makes yon wonder if you really can be dust and ashes after this perfect‘ defer ence, and their manners arc marked by more vivacity than those of the Spanish people. Catch one of them at fault if you can. He will denominate the American women as prudes, and “incomplete,” as significantly say, stigmatize the country as unendurable, and the people as frightfully stiff and cold, without giving one a: possi ble chance to retort, by the dextrous cour tesy of tope whicli characterizes all . The Argentine and Peruvian Legations ire ex tremely popular for the. gayety and the new excitable pleasures they infuse into the steady, unimaginative American so ciety. The navy people, as they are called, have an air peculiar to themselves; upright,easy. dauntless; and the women have ani'esprit which they catch, possibly, from their fathers or brothers. Certainly they carry themselves better than most of the women in the room. Shoulder-straps and back- boards need to be revived for the benefitof this weak-chested generation, who have almost forgotten how to stand without either tilting themselves backward or for ward. This does not apply to Mrs. Secre tary Fish, who deserves to be leader of the ton by virtue of her carriage, if nothing more. A Convention of the People in At lanta—Georgia must he Saved. Mr. Editor: The state of political affairs are ominous of evil, and only evil. It must grieve the heart of any man. no matter what his political opinions or predilections may be—whether he be old line Democrat or Whig, Republican or Secessionist—to see and know the demoralized condition of our State Government in all its depart ments, and the litter lethargy that pervades the tpasses. Chaos is the watchword of natty; trouble and poverty its sequence. Can anything be done to restore order 1 , give confidence apd security to the laboring, suffering tax payers of the State ? Can the evil be reached by a convention of the peo ple f Let the effort be made before the as sembling of the Legislature. Let us for get party differences and party ascendancy for once, invite all men, regardless of par ty, who have the Interest of the country at heart, to meet in Atlanta, and if possible unite on one policy, one platform. Lib erty without lawlessness, and the adminis- Matters in Florida—Mrs. H. B. Stowe’s Place, etc.—Green Bine Excursionists. Jacksonville, Fla., Jan. 31, 1870. Mr. Editor: The Sabbath day in Savan nah was spent by the Qreon Line Excur sion party in attending Divine service, dri ving and perambulating the streets. At 6 o’clock, r. M., yesterday, the Green Line train started upon its journey to this point, which was reached this morning between 9 and 10 o’clock. No formal reception was accorded the delegation, as no special invitation had been extended by tho munic ipality or citizens with that view. After partaking of such refreshments as tho various Hotels were enabled to pro vide, the excursionists divided into groups and passed the day in wandering about tho city in quest of sights, which were found in the shape of luxuriant gardens that aboun ded in lettuce, cabbage, English-peas, and other vegetables that were as far advanced in point of maturity as the gardens usually present in Middle Georgia in the month of May. Pea-vines have clambered up their artificial supports to the height of four feet, bearing full developed pods, ready for the table. Orange trees, laden with golden fruit, constitute an attractive feature to strangers in Jacksonville. Visitors from the Western cities were much gratified at the opportunity thus afforded of seeing this favorite native of the tropics flourishing in all its glory. Several water crafts were chartered by the excursionists, who sailed at pleasure up and down the broad and beautiful St. John river, and who visited various points of in terest, among which was the winter resort and orange grove of Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe, situated on the banks of tho stream, fifteen miles above Jacksonville. Your correspondent was a member of this party. The authoress, whose recent reputed de velopments in reference to tho Byron do mestic relations, and who evoked the criti cisms of both hemispheres, has but recently returned to “Mandarin,” her river-side home. It is a charming spot, rendered moro attractive by the group of huge live oaks that extend their long moss-covered arms over tho area that lies betwoen the shore and court-yard. The feature of “Mandarin” is tho beau tiful and extensive orange groves that or nament these grounds. The luscious, yel low fruit, hanging in clustors amidst the deep green foliage, delights tho eye of the beholder. Tho party was presented to Mrs. Stowe, and during their sojourn occupied the hour devoted to their recreation in plucking oranges and wandering through the premises rendered notorious by the presence of its present possessor. Jacksonville is rapidly improving, and seems to be alive to the importance of ma terial progress, as evinced in tho largo num ber of substantial buildings recently erec ted. Many Northern capitalists have of late invested here; and within a period of two years real ostato has advanced from four to five hundred per cent. A spacious Hotel (the St. James) was completed about one year since. Quite a number of invalids from the Northern States, aro now seeking to improve their impaired health in this, their’ favorito resort. The excursionists have declined to visit Tallahassee, and will return to-morrow morning to Jessup, the junction of the Gulf with the Macon and Brunswick Road, when a majority of them will proceed to Macon, whilst others will visit Brunswick, Savannah, and Charleston. Thu Green Line Excursion has proved a success in every aspect, and will'doubtless be the means of inaugurating commercial business relations between the Great West and the South, that will redound to the ma terial advancement of both sections.

An English View That Radical Negrroisnt is the Acutest Moral Torture Ever Inflicted. From the Pall Mall Gazetto.l * * * Except in the case of the Uni ted States, there has been great uniformity in the history of the suppression of rebel lions in modern times. First, there has been severe and often sanguinary punish ment inflicted on the chiefs of tho revolt; then has succeeded a period during which the successful empire has enforced strict obedience to itself from its subjugated de pendency; and finally has come a strong de sire, growing somotimea out of policy, sometimes out of a sense of justice, and sometimes out of mere emotion, to win its affections, or at all events its voluntary ac quiescence in accomplished facts. England is just at present feoling an almost passion ate wish to be reconciled to Ireland and to be beloved by tho natives of India; Austria has done her best to come to terms with Hungary, and there aro signs that the sufferings of Poland are beginning to causo discomfort and compunction oven in Rus sia. The United States seem destined to an experience of a different kind. On the morrow of tho conquost their treatment of the Southern leaders was marked by a gen tleness which will always be remembered to their honor. But in the next stage of their relations with the South, tho necessity for combining despotic rule with something liko tho forms of local self-government forced them to adopt a policy which has more than made up for their abstinence from bloodshed. Nobody whose intelli gence has not been impaired by tho habit of repeating formulas about universal suf frage, can doubt that the punishment inflic ted on the Southern whites is far tho sever est which ono community has ever inflicted on another. England governed Ireland through a minority which tho mass of the Celtic popnlation, however it might hate, nover dreamed of despising; the United States rule the South through a majority of negroes, contempt for whom was almost a religion with the planter before the at tempt at secession. Wo are not consider ing whether the punishment was deserved, or whether the Northern States could pos sibly help inflicting it; we merely say that, after the capacity of the negro for improve ment has been rated as highly as possible, and after all possible deductions have been made from the credibility of the stories published by the Democratic press, the fact remains that government of white men by colored ex-slaves is the accutest form of moral torture which has ever been applied to a community. How unfortunate it has been that the punishment of the South has taken this shape the United States are not likely to feel until the time come9 (and it will certainly come) when the people of the North will be animated with tho strongest wish to be reconciled to even the most ob stinate zealots of secession. We should' be sorry to lay down that the United States would, have done well to shed blood like water in tho first moments of triumph if only-they could have devised some less de grading contrivance for the provisional government of the South. Yet it is quite certain that bloodshed is easily forgotten; personal outrage with the greatest difficul ty. The Hungarian nobles appear to have forgiven the Emperor Francis Joseph for his wholesale execution of their brethren; but nobody can fail to see that the “ irreconcil ability ” of some of the most imminent of French politicians is greatly due to recol lections of the personal dishonor to which they were subjected on the memorable morning of the coup d’etat.

Tho Charleston News tells us all about \\ right, the Pfegro just elected Supreme Court Judge, of that Stato. It gays: Wright, a colored man who sits in the General Assembly as Senator from ~.eaufort connty, was elected yesterday Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of this State. Wright was bom in Psnnsyl vania, graduated at tho Lancasterian Uni versity in New York, studied law for two years at Montrose, Pennsylvania, and was admitted to the bar in Susquehanna county, being the first colored man admitted to practice in Pennsylvania. In 1865 he came South and was made le gal adviser of the South Carolina freed- men. . He was a delegate to the Recon struction Convention, and was afterward elected to the State Senate. Wright is quiet, well-behaved and deci dcdly intelligent, but neither hia decency nor h.s little knowledge of the law caused his election to tho highest judicial position in the State. Ho was elected solely and simply because ho is a colored man. Tho entire number of persons on whom Princeton College has conferred de grees is 6,069 ; 2,771 are siiil living. 860 graduates of the institution have become clergymen, and 433 physicians. What Does Reason Say?—The little mongoose when bitten by a deadly serpent resorts to a certain plant, eats of it, and es capes the effect of the poison. That is in stinct. Human beings on the other hand, must depend on reason and experience in selecting the means of protecting health and life against unwholesome influences. Now. what does reason say on this vital Fanny Mention. There is a kind of grim humor in the ad dress of a devout deacon to his newly- settled pastor as he gave him the usual wel come—“The Lord will keep you humble and we will keep you poor. A parson surprised a farmer, whom he seldom saw at hia ministrations, by asking him directly, after a little reproof of his 6ln of omission, “ Shall we see you at church next Sabbath?” “Y-e-s,” he re plied slowly, “ I’ll go—or send a hand 1” “ Go to ’ell,” is a choice expression, gen erally used now In Washington, origina ting from a remark to that effect, often made by Prince Arthur. The ladies, many of them, U3e it, and declare it expresses their feelings better than any remark they ould make. A Wisconsin paper says that a cotempo- raryhas “struck a livelier local gait than ever, as the last number contains an obitu ary of J udge Cary.” Another paper says: “ Our editor haviDg gone to Madison, and taken his scissors with him, we are unable to wile in his dashing style.” Two citizens were heard conversing In a street in Dqndee. regarding the Ecumen ical Council. “Well, John,” said one, “what d’ye think ’o this Economical Cooncil in 1ST The first ten performances of Mr, Rome?” “Rome! did-ye say?” the other Booth’s Hamlet, this season, brought $27,- replied, “I wish to gudeness we only had 260 into the treasury of the theater. an Economical Cooncil in Dundee 1 ” way , , . - . poison which generates disease? Surely it does. The next question is, what guide shall we follow in choosing a medicinal safeguard ? Reason replies, let your monitor be expe rience. Well, the experience of eighteen years, comprised in one unbroken series of satisfactory testimonials, assures us that Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters possess strengthening, regulating and antiseptic properties which are not combined in the* same happy proportions in any other prep aration extant. This, therefore, is the an tidote to which reason bids ns reeort when our health is imperilled either by the ma laria which produces epidemic disorders, or by any other cause, whether inherent and constitutional or connected with onr hab its, occupations and pursuits. The venom of a noxious reptile is scarce ly more subtle and dangerous than that which lurks in foul air and impure water. To escape the fevers, bilious disorders, dis turbances of the bowels, and other serious maladies produced by these insalubrious elements, it is absolutely necessary that the stomach and all the secretive organs should be, so to speak, in a robust condition. Upon the amount of resistance which the vital system can oppose to the deleterious in fluences that assail it, the safety of the health depends, and it is because the great vegetable invlgorant Imparts energy and regularity to the most important functions of the body, that it can be recommended and guaranteed as an invaluable prevent ive medicine. febS-deodlw&wlt notice William B.
