Mr. Simeon W. Thorn ton, whilo attempting to get on the tender of the switch engine "NewHampshire,” lost his root- ho d and foil on tho track. Tbe wheels passed across his breast, catting bis body and heart in two. and causing his instantaneous death. He was a good citizen, an exemplary Christian, and industrious man. Ho leaves a wito and several children. We learn that he had been In tho em ploy of the State Road bnt for a short time. He had his life insured in the Georgia Mutual, of Macon, for $5,000, but not being able to make the first payment, the policy was cancelled several weeks ago. Fast Express Freight Line.—Mr. Vol- kky Dunning, tho live and indc-/of-igneablo Ex press man, informs us that the Southern, In con jnnetion with the Adams Express Company, hss organized an Express freightline. and established depots and offices in New York, Philadelphia and Baltimore, from which point heavy freights will be forwarded daily by special Express freight trains for all the principal points in the South- ern States. The want ol such an intermediary line with mneb lower rates than arc charged by the regular “ passenger train Express," and yet affording considerable advantage, in time, over ordinary freight lines, has long been Deeded, and this new organization will, wo doubt not, obtain a liberal patronage.

It arose on amo tion to set aside a garnishment on a judgment ob tained against a man named O'Shicldt. The gar nishee answered that he was indebted to O’Shlclds for groceries. 0’ShicIds claimed that the gar nishment should be set aside, as the groceries had been s-t apart as personalty under tbo homestead aet. From the evidence it appeared that Mr 0’ShicIds, in December. 1869, had his stock of gro ceries set apart as personalty, bnt since then has •old and replenished the stock from time to time. The position assumed by his counsel is that he is entitled to the "rent, profit or produce” of tbe per sonalty so set apart. Justice Spencer ruled that Mr. O'Shiclds conld not hold transferable personalty nndcr the home stead act; that the personalty conld ODly bo sold in accordance with law. Articles now claimed were nover set apart, not being in bis possession at that time. B. H. Thrasher, for O’Shields; T. P. Westmorcland,c->ntra. The case, we learn,will be certloraried. The King House.—We invite special at tention to the advertisement of Colonel J. J. Mor rison, proprietor of the King House at Stone Mountain. Colonel H.wlll impart to the Sins House as mneb prestige and success as Judge King has to the Georgia Railroad. The King Honso is ono of the best constructed, arranged and furnished houses in Georgia. Each room is thoroughly ventilated and supplied with water. The halls are twenty-two feet wide, and the apartment for married persons are separate and distinct, and distinct from that occupied by sin* gle persons. The arrangements ;in the kitchen are specially adapted for comfort, convenience and cleanimess. The furniture, table ware and out-fit are the best to bo obtained. The Bridal Chamber is fitted np In a style nt once magnifi cent and impressive. The waiters are prompt, courteous and attentive. Sam Gallier. the Stew ard, is master of the situation. Connected with the house Is a fine band of music, who discourse a “concord ;of sweet sounds” on the arrival of each train, and. at night for the entertainment of guests. The King House has sixty rooms. Stone Mountain is the summer resort of Geor-r gia. The picturesque scenery, delightful atmos phere, puro water and healthy climate, render it attractive. Its accessibility by mail and rail adds too to its great advantages. The influx of visi tors to Stone Mountain, already set in. will large ly increase the revenues of the Georgia Railroad. To onr friends in southwest Georgia and on th* coast, we say you eannot do better this summer than to spend it at the King House at Stone Moan- tain. wlntment hlmsolf. iioo it# In tha Sonata ycatorday. Harlan, who wa* an Itlnorant preacbor on fikio a year whan first elected to Congress, nnd Is now worth a million or two, occupied the mortal hour* In whttewnahing himself, nnd in edvoen* ting the bill for the aale of tbo Osage In dian land*, . „ . The Home broke loose on the Cuban question, and the mummery at the State Department wns most unmercifully han dled by Republican* a* well as Democrats, But one ” small, still voice” was raised In behalf of the pusillanimous foreign policy of tbe administration. It was a field-day for Cuba, aud no mistake, Tbo Senate to-day adopted tbe report of the Committee of Conference on the bill te enforce tbe 16th Amendment by a strictly party vote of 48 yeas to 11 nays. Senators Bayard and Saulsbury made earnest and able protests against this Infamous meas ure, but with no avail. Stewart bad the last words, and screeched so discordantly that everybody was glad when ho sat down. His remarks were mere sound and U 5^i’e Northern Pacific Railway bill was up In tbe House, anil a vote taken on tbe amendment requiring that all lands grant ed shall be Bold to actual settlers. The amendment was. lost. The friends of the bill expect it to go through as received from the Senate. Charges of lobby opera tions were made by several members, who doubtless knew what they were talking about. hoisted with his own petard. Before the report of the Senate Judiciary Committee on the Bullock lobby was pub lished. every one supposed, of course, that the high-toned editorials in Forney’s Chronicle, eulogistic of that high-toned in dividual, Rufus B. Bullock, were pure out bursts of spontaneous enthusiasm; the ex pression of honest admiration for an hon est patriot; and incense burned at tbe shrine of a Republican martyr. It was natural that the public should so think, knowing how honest, patriotic and incor ruptible has been the career of the editor of the “two papers—both daily.” The for- ty-cent a line business has spoiled all. People begin to see that “things are not what they seem.” They have, doubts— grave doubts—as to Forney’s incorrupti bility. They are sceptical as to Bullock’s “private future.” They begin to make un warrantable inquiries about the revenues of the State Road. They insinuate that Avery’s reputation is not saving; and they are inquisitive as to the operations of the “Little Perjurer.” This is really shocking. The Judiciary Committee has much to an swer for. Why. next we shall hear it charged that our worthy Governor is no better than a thief; that he lias played tiie part of Richardson without meeting the fate of Richardson; that Blodgett has com mitted perjury; and that tiie revenues of the State Road have gone every where that they should not have gone. And all this will the Judiciary Committee have brought about. But I intended to tell how Bulloek has been “hoisted with his own petard.” Since it has been learned how Bullock shoots off tiie Chronicle—tiie charges being exceed ing heavy, necessarily, to have produced the report of the Judiciary Committee- other people have tried their hands at the same game. A. A. Bradley, a gentleman of color not altogether unknown in Georgia, has proved an apt pupil. He lets loose on Bullock through the Republican, or rather on Bullock and Terry, both of whom, he insists, must be removed at once. In the same issue “A member of the Grand Army of the Republic” showed up the Union re cord of the Bullock-Blodgett ring. And to-day. a writer over tbe signature of “Droit” gets after that impalpable essence of filtered and condensed nothing, Bullock’s “ private fortune.” This is rather tough on Bulloek; but he led the way; and A. A. B., et a!., have followed alter with a sharp stick. This will necessitate Bullock’s get ting a breast-plate for his rear. He has suf ficient brass in his face to protect his front.

In the Corps Lcgislatif to-day, it was announced that tiie Government would not relinquish its prerogative of appointing Mayor. a barbkr-ous mistake. Senator Revels finds some difficulty in getting shaved when the stubble on his chin requires mowing. I know people don’t mow stubble, but then I have taken out a poet’s license, as the barbers general ly refuse to shave a colored man. Now the Russian Minister has before the door of his residence a flag-staff, surmounted by an eagle, but so striped as to closely resem ble a barber pole. This took the eye of Revels one fine morning not long ago, and rubbing his princely chin, he concluded he would go in for a quiet shave. Now, as will be seen hereafter. Revels was not Igno rant of whose establishment it was; but he no doubt fancied there was a private bar ber shop in the dwelling which he propos ed to patronize. He rang tbe bell, handed his card to a servant, asked to see Mr. “ Catacrazv,” and walked in. The exact nature of the interim which ensued is not known,but Revels soon emerged an un shaven and a wiser man. He thinks if the Russian Minister don’t keep a barber shop he onght to take down bis sign. mere mention. “ Spotted Tail,” chief of the Brule Sioux, and several of his braves, were in the House gallery to-day.

Editors ConstitutionIn common with the rest of the State, we had been, for the last few weeks, suffering very much from the extreme dry and warm weather. Our oat crop was brought to the very verge of destruction, and all other vegetation was being severely injured; but this week we have been blessed with a most beautiful supply of rain, which has revived every thing. Our prospects now for large yields of all kinds of cereals have not before been as fine since the war. Dalton is considerably excited just now on the subject of the location of the ma chine shops of the Selma, Rome and Dal ton Railroad Company. Notwithstanding the inclemency of the weather, there was a meeting of our citizens at the Court-house last evening, to consider the propriety of purchasing and donating to the road grounds here suitable for tbe erection of theshops. Tbe meeting was largely at tended, and two oonqiqittces were appoint- -ed^-one to confer with owners of lands adjacent to the road as to prices, etc-, the other to wait on the proper authorities of the road and ascertain what their views are on the subject of the location of the shops at this point. The Mayor (John P. Love, Esq-) in formed the meeting that, from all he had learned, Dalton stood a very fair chance of obtaining tbe shops, provided the citizens would move promptly and liberally in tbe matter. The first regular train is expected to rqn through from Selma to Dalton next Mon day. The Hill vs. Blount affair, published in your paper recently, has been a considera ble bomb-shell in the camp nf the enemy here. It made an opening in their ranks which will be hard to close up. The King Coal Mine Company is goug ing away vigorously into the Chattooga Mountain after the hidden treasure. I in tend visiting the mines in a day or two, and will then give you the particulars of their operations. P. TH1UUIT) OF BIMPBOT. Wo, ns a committee nppointotl ly Unity Lodge, No, 74, F.

Corn—The receipts are still liberal, but a portion of the arrivals are put iu on con tract, and the offerings were not large. The demand, however,was less active, but prices were maintained.

Local and Business Notices- A Question in Many Homes.—The fine times when we could all live oil the fat of the land have gone by, perhaps never to re turn. Of late, the question bow to obtain the largest amount of wholesale, pala table nourishment at tiie lowest pos sible price, has been earnestly dis cussed in thousands of American can homes. The introduction of Sea Moss Farine as a national food staple, solves that problem. From no other article under the sun can tbe same amount of delicious fare be obtained for the same cost. The cus tards, Charlottes, jellies, puddings, etc., made from it are “fit for Juno when she banquets;” and as a clarifier for refining cider aud other fermented potables, it has no equal. The Sea Moss Farine Company, who owns the patent for the article, have their central depot at 53 Park Place, New York, and within twelve months they have established a business of immense magni tude and importanoe. may31-deodlw&wlt. The Popular Tonic of the Age—The day lias gone by when a medicine without merit could command and retain the con fidence of the world. Advertising induces tbe public to try many things, but in this shrewd and thoughtful age, words will not suffice without proofs, and it is by the ex ercise of their private judgment, men de termine tiie relative value of tlio various articles recommended to their notice through the business columns of newspa pers. Hostetler’s Stomach Bitters lias now been subjected to this searching ordeal for more Ilian eighteen years, and the result is that it stands at the head of tiie class of remedies to y^iiich it belongs. It has dis tanced and lived down innumerable com petitors, and is to-day tbe Standard Vege table Tonic of tiie western world. Tiie happy eflects which have followed its use in cases of dyspepsia, biliousness, nervous affections, intermittent fevers and general debility, and as a constitutional invigorant, have entitled it to universal confidence. Nothing can ever shake its reputation, for it is based on tbe individual experiences of tens of thousands of witnesses, embracing prominent and well known citizens of every profession, occupation and class. There is not a city, town or settlement in the United States where it is not a medici nal staple. No druggist or general dealer would consider his stock complete without it, and the returns of the Internal Revenue Department show that its sales exceed those of any other proprietory restorative man ufactured on tiiis side of the Atlantic. The beneficial results derived during a long se ries of'years from the use of Hostetter’a Bitters, have convinced tbe whole com munity that the only true way to restore to health a broken down or debilita ted system, or to put the human body on its defense when exposed to unwholesome in fluences, is to invigorate, regulatt and puri fy it at once anil tbe same time. may31-deodlw&wlt.
