Ciiamukr of Commerce.—This body met

dent, M»j«»r B. K Crane, in the chair.
The miuntes of the last meeting were read by the
Secretary, and after oue or two alight corrections,
wen* adopted
The first huaine** before the meeting waa the read
ingof a report of th? committee on statistics.
The first part of the report, which waa asking the
Chamber to Increase the number comprising the com
mittee on statist ca, from five to ten, this part of the
report was adopted, and A. Haas. M. W. Johnson, S.
C. Hitchcock. W. A. Fuller, and B. H. Goodman, were
added. The tame of the President, B. B. Crane,
as. on motion, also added.
The r ma i 1 id rt of the report was relativs to ina
circular a- emanating from the Chamber of Com-
lerce, which waa referred to the committee.
The fo.lowing preamble and resolution was of!
by O II. Joues:
Wberms. Esteeming the tvpntatioR of ovary elli-
*n as a part of the capital of our city, to a greater or
lea* extent, ai d deeming it tha duty of each ciUaeR
hold hinmdf ready at all times to guard aa far aa
po-rible the interest of the city as levanted in its
ciiixcus, wc respectfully submit the following
tatta
Resolved, That we regard the recant attack made
through the press upon the character aud credit of H
Kimball la hi.* absence from the country as unjust,
e not only disclaim belief in this irresponsible
port.hu* discoantenauceand denounce as dangerous to
ba-in-ss iutereets, the manner in which they .have
Peru put ia cjculatioa
After some diecnaakm over tho preamble and reso
lution. lh< Hecretary waa requested to read the dis
patch relative to Mr. Kimball and the comments of
Tu* Atlanta ConaTrrmon upon 1l
After further diacoaelon. Dr. Red wine moved that
the resolution he laid on the table.
J. t. Kimball urged that Dr. Red wine would
wlfhdrs-a hia motion, and permit the resolution of
Jours to be withdrawn. He stated that the report
'.hat 11. 1. Kimball had failed In Nevada waa untrue;
that ao man could bring any claim against him from
that country; that it was true that H. L Kimball had
gone to Europe: that he hoc contemplated the trip for
[ time, for the purpose of representing tho bust
of a houae ho was connected with, but that hi*
gaettneut* hod prevented his going. Mr J. C. Kimball
stated that the attack wm an infamous one : that th
report was rife all * hroegh Georgia, and what effect
woald rrau’.i from the report upon H. I. Kimball'
huain*«• he coaid not state; it would require aa ex
ceedingly strong man to stand them. He stated that
his remark* were made from no ill feei ng towt
ty one. bo: in justice to an absent man.
With the explanation of Mr. Kimball Dr. Redwlne
said that he would withdraw hia resolution to lay the
preamble and resolution on the table, provided, to
other resolution in regard to the matter was intro
duced.
The resolution was then withdrawn by Mr. Jones.
The Chamber then adjourned.
It seemed to he the general impression that the
resolution in ragard to Mr. Kimball did not

lowed the attorneys for tho Btate to prepare a new
warrant, under which Millar wan r«-arrested by Corn-

that the second warrant did mat folly set forth tha
charge, but aa the opposite counsel had notified him
of the particular transaction on which the charge was
based be would go to the trial.
a. a. CCLBEBSOV
waa sworn for the Stote and testified; That he was
Clerk of the Railroad Commission ; that a claim of
Severn thousand and four hundred aad eleven dollars
was presented to the Board by defendant about the
S7ih day of January. 187L which claim waa audited;
several different accounts which wets suauned up to
make the above amount were produced and Mfjrtfol
by witness ; these accounts were certified aa correct
hy ft. F. Blodgett, purchasing agent, and by Messrs.
Wreon. Mullins, A. L. Harris; witness then explain
ed the mod'u opamruti 01 getting accounts audited
and paid before the Railroad Cooamlamoa.
Croas examined—^Witness’ impression was that
Millar was sworn, but on that point he waa not poet-
lira. Does not remember whether or not Major Hiii
yer examined the booka to flLd out tho correctness of
Millar’s account. Millar had no attorney before the
hoard. There are three records of the procoodinga of
the board. The pap r In question waa ia tho posses
sion of Mr. McCal a. General Book keeper of tho rood.
The paper waa filed away; did not hand them to
McCalls. The papers were ordered filed away by the
board. Major Uillycr waa diligent in sent ti nixing all
MAJOM OKOBOE HILLYKR
woe next sworn and test fled that he waa a member
of the Railroad Commission; that be remeo ben Mil
lar’s claim. Millar waa examined; the claim waa au
dited on the statements of Millarand the certificates.
Does not remember whether Millar was sworn; wit-
took this claim and tried to sro the auditor*
hook, but the auditor was oat; saw a pass book and
this claim waa not in it.
Cross examined—Thiuks hia board waa organized
about the 10th of January last; this claim waa audi
ted while the commissioner sat In the depot. There
was no division in the board about auditing this ac
count; does not know positively that Millar waa
sworn, but thinks he was. If there had been any
ground of suspicion the account would not have been
L It waa customary for the Board to tely upon
the contracts made by the purchasing agent and offi
cers of the road.
ioexra Far
was next sworn, who testified that he was in the em
ployment of the State Road about one ye*r: was
clerk of tho Purchasing Agent; had seen these ac
counts before: some of them were made out tn the
Purchasing Agent's office in Atlanta; Millar had the
blanks; don't know which of them were ao made
out; witness registered them as soon ae made out;
the accounts look as if made out by the same person
and with the same ink; he took a few of them down
to Mr. Mullen and bad them approved; remembers
that a few of the articles in the bill were ordered;
don't know if any of the accounts are bogus; this
was the only case in which bills were made out in the
office; Millar had no booka before him when he made
them out: thinks these goods were received over the
Macon road ; w»- present w hen this claim was passed ;
heard no one say anything about a division of this
ioney; don't remember that he told counsel for the
State that some of these accounts were bogus; did
not say that Millar only got three thousaud dollars of
the money ; never heard of any of these bills before
Millar made them out in the office; some of them may,
however, have been tin-re.
Cross examined—Thinks he ordered some of the
articles; a telegram may have been sen*. Went to
Mr. Millar to got hia approval; each officer ap
proved accounts for goods furnished his depart-
'Twaa E. F. Blodgett's business to furnish
contracts. Witness recogn ses several letters as signed
by said Blodgett. No concealment of these accounts
the books was attempted. AH these accounts are
signed as correct by the ration* officers of depart
ments. (It was here sdm'tted by the defendant that
he received the money from the trem-ury on these
claims.) Generally kept no ropy of orders; does not
know if the letters wore sent to Millar; requisitions
lot generally kept; thinks they were destroyed
after Ihe road was leased.
JANE* MULLEN
having been sworn testiflod that he was master ma
chinist ; don’t recollect w hen Fry brought him the ac
counts ; he signed one for a steam pump; the pump
was not received when he signed the bill for it; some
other articles in tbe account had been received; did
pnt articles received on hia books; don’t remem
ber that any other account but that for the pnmp waa
approved before the receipt of articles ; was shown
copies of accounts like those to-day; all good* from
8 tvannah came over the Macon road; went oat of of
fice on February 1st, 1871; the pump had not then
cotar ; the price of this pump at the factory was $450;
don’t know how much the fixings and freights
Amounted to; this pump, fixings, etc., were paid for
#8 0.
Cross examined—Waa snbpcenaed as a witness for
mp defendant; said that there was nothing secret at
the interview when he was shown a copy of some pa
pers ; this pump was ordered to supply the place of a
d fective pump; it was absolutely necessary; the
prices charged for the articles were moderate; cannot

Host tetter's Stomach Bitters has been build
ing np broken constitutions, bracing and
strengthening attenuated frames, and afford
ing comfort, ease, and hope to thousands.
As a preventive of the epidemics which make
such havoc with the health of the inhabitants
of new settlement*, this famous tonic is cer
tainly without a rival. Perhaps the princi
pal portion of its world wide fame is attribu
table to its astonishing enreq of dyspepsia,
and all forms of indigestion. But these are
not a moit v of ita triumphs. All the types of
biliousness yield to its persistent use. It Is a
regulating medicine of the highest order, and
its effect upon the secretions, when irregular,
is moat salutary.
Imposition of the grossest character is
sought to be practiced upon the community
by vendors, who recommend under the name
of "bitters," fiery compounds of a dangerous
charac ter, which they attempt to substitute
for tbe great national tonic. Shun all such
nostrums, and see that you have the genuine
Hostetler's Stomach Bitters, properly authen

material wealth. Were we circumstanced as
they, our interests would lead us to tbe same
results, perhaps, but as we have acted, our
education was evidently conducted by those
in the interests of onr Northern neighbors, or
we would not have submitted so tamely to
this tax. The same illustration can be drawn
in morel training. What would produce
good fruit in the puritanical character, or in
those living in a state of society based and
originated In the Puritan’s principles, would
cause disorganization and immorality w hen
applied to the Chevalier or Huguenot stock.
This education might be brought about by
a gradual and almost imperceptible inflcncc,
and, for the sake of the argument, we will
sayitcan. Would we be tbe gainers ? Which
civilization do we prefer » That w liich places
God supreme and man in his subordinate
sphere, each in hia proper place, or Ihe higher
law doctrine, “All men arc born free and
equal”—a doctrine which must make the
bones of Jefferson rest uneasily when he sees
the interpretation put upon it by bis would
be expounders. I will not enlarge upon this
point, as every Southern man must acknowl
edge the force of the proposition, and the
premises of the Yankee are not admissible
with either our views or the truth. We have
no dispute with the man who, finding his po
sition not tenable in the light of the word of
God, appeals to a “ higher law."
Let us review the past and see the methods
of our education with its results. Why do
so many (I was about to say we, for it might
be said to be universal) look upon tbe schools,
colleges, universities of the North as the best
in the land ? Why do our people rush to the
North for their supplies, and when an at
tempt is made nt production at home.jhey
will feel and exclaim, vain attempt to com
pete with Yankee skill and appliances. Why-
do we look to the North for high types of
the religious life and strict character for in
tegrity, whilst isims, fraud, deceit, and every
crune in tire moral calender are rampant
there? Let me tell yon,you must look to
tbe school room for the solution. As to the
scholarship, find how many books in the
bands of children are by Southern authors.
What is tbe inference? We have no men
capable ia all onr Southern schools and col
leges to write books.
Let us open the books. What do we find?
Morality taught by Beecher; religion by
Cheever; politics by Wendell Pbillips; selec
tions from a host of Y'ankee writers on every
phase of sentiment, and not one from our
own great minds. The selections, good
enough for those in their own midst, but
if there is any power in education make our
•ona and daughters tit citizens of New York
and Massachusetts, but where is tlie glowing
ideal of the southron? Where the high-toned
honor that makes man prefer annihilation to
inaptitude? Where tbe devotion to his own
sonny home, that has made the southron, in
times past, aeek destruction rather than
alienation from that home ? Then ms to the
authors. Have we no authors? I will not
attempt an enumeration, but what does the
child think t His parent and teacher has put
this book in his hand—these are his standards,
they must be the best if not the only ones.
Is it at all wonderful that these ideas cling
to us when grown?
That we think the colleges that produced
the books we used in our education are the
ones to educate our sons and daughters ?
That the men whose names have become fa
miliar to ns in the schoolroom, and the great
intellects, the great examples for our imita
tion.
You may claim that there is nothing ob
noxious to the Southern mind in these books.
Is the sentiment less dangerous because so
subtle that it is not discoverable except in its
results? Do we think the poison less dan
gerous because beyond the tests of the chem
ist's analysis? or do we think the best play
ground for onr children is tbs brink of the
precipice, when broad acres safely guarded
lie stretching in the distance?
I will my nothing of self-respect, nothing
of the duty we ours our friends and educa
tors, nothing of the devotion, sacrifice tad
labor of noble men. whose names even thrill
ns with emotion. I appeal to yon in your
self-defense. Wnf you commit moral
rather homicide, for it is not
yonnslf, but your children thus affected by
your acta If we want to be demoralized, if, in
fact, we deairr to be reconstructed in the sense
of the Yankee, we can take no better oouree
than the one we have been and are pursuing.
Continue this, and soon the cant, tbs ism, the
tbe character of Wendell Phillips will he as
common in Georgia se they are in Massachu
setts. **

MAS SAG HUSETTS.
Boston, August 27.—Tbe Banger Express
ran into the Beverly train, seven miles from
Boston, last night Eighteen men and three
women were killed.
Later—The particulars of the accident
last night on tlie Eastern Railroad are ap
palling. The Express ran into an accommo
dation train, at full speed, with such force
that the engine and tender reached the
center of the last car, which was de
molished. This car was crowded with
passengers, sitting and standing. The
wood-work instantly took fire, and the
scene which followed was terrible. The
boiler of the engine burst and the victims
were enveloped In a cloud of steam and de
luded with hot water. The latter extin
guished the flames, and only a few of the pas
sengers in the car who were not instantly
killed by the collision escaped the fatal ef
fects of the steam.
Other cars in the accommodation train
took fire from the upsetting of keioiene
lamps; but the passengers got out in time.
Still Later.—The number of dead so far
twenty-four, among them the Rev. Dr.
Ezra Garrett, of Boston.
At tho time of the collision the accommo
dation train for Boverly had its ml signal
lights behind, and the red signal was twisted
at the masthead of the signal port for the
Express train to hold up, which it did at
Everett; but subsequently proceeded and was
under full headway when near Revere sta
tion, the engineer evidently not bcin^ aware
of the proximity of the Beverly train until,
perhaps, within sixty rods of*it He then
whistled “dow*n breaks” but was not soon
enough to av<*l the calamity.
Some of the passengers in the rear part of
the accommodation (ruin heard the whistle,
but too late to escape On came the express
train, at a great velocity, aud the engine
struck the rearmost car full in the centre, and
forced its way in, in telescope manner. The
car was crowded with people, every seat
being filled and many standing in the aisle.
The locomotive rusned In quick as a flash
just 8H tbe Beverly train started, mangling
and killing in the roost frightful manner.
Subsequently the boiler exploded, and shat
tered the lamps and fired the cars.

ALABAMA.
Mobile, August 28.—The Register has
kindly furnished Ihe following The steamer
Ocean Wave, a low pressure boat, left the
city Sunday morning with about two hundred
•ersona on board for an excursion to Fisb
liver, about twenty miles from tbe city.
On her return trip she stopped at 'Point
Clear, reaching there at 5 o’clock r. m. The
lioat was made fast; the band and part of the
passengers went ashore. After remaining
: or half an hour, the whistle wa- blown and
tbe passengers had just got aboard when the
boiler exploded with great force, following
with a rumbling, hissing sound. Fragments
of timber and metal flew in every direction.
Tbe forward part of tbe boat s cabin was
carried completely away. The chimney fell
backward toward the rear of the Iwat,crush
ing the upper cabin, and the boat immedi
ately sunk with her bow submerged. About
sixty or seventy persons were killed and in
jured by tbe explosion. 8o far, Ihe bodies
of nineteen dead, eight ladies among the
number, have been recovered. Twenty-eight
wounded have been brought to the city,
and one of the number, a little girl, has
since dial. The scene was appalling,
terrific and heart-rending. Wilder scenes
of grief have seldom been witnessed.
Frantic cries as they lamented for their lost
wires, children, parents and sisters waa ago
nizing to all who had human sympathies.
Many of the passengers were little children,
and many little bats and bonnets came ashore
to tell of the little victims beneath the waves.
The Captain William Eaton, sivam some
time with both legs broken, and a boat
reached him justatoo late, and he went down.
The two pilots were killed. The engineer
and hislwife were severely iqjmcd, and all
the firemen killed.
It is impossible to correctly estimate loss.
By some It is supposed that at least thirty or
forty persons are still buried in the debris of
the wreck on the bottom of the Bay. A
diver has gone to the scene of disaster. The
accident has cast a gloom over the whole
city, and a universal sadness prevails The
streets are crowded with people, and the
excitement is intense. Tlie Ocean Wave has
been for some time considered unsafe. The
boat has always been an unlucky one.
A criminal responsibility rests somewhere,
and it should be visited upon those whose
recklessness and incapacity it is attributable
to. The system of inspections everywhere
is loose, careless and reckless. The boiler
was not so much exploded as it was torn
opeu with a long seam. It was so rotten as
to litterally tear open. Had it been stronger
so as to explode with greater violence, the
destruction would have been greater. The
force of the explosion was upwards and for-
warda

MIDNIGHT BUPATOIIBI.
NEW YORK.
Nnw York, August 38.—At a iheetlng of
the Grand Jury to-day, Recorder Hackett
delivered a special charge on tlie suifject of
the,Westfield boiler explosion. The judge
pointed out provisions of the law applicable
tojlhc case and circumstances nci-essary to be
found to exist, in order to reach the President
of the company, Superintendent and engineer.
The Recorder said it ia too often the case that
subordinates are made scapegoats tor erring
officials who are over them, and w ho are mare
powerful in place and means. If it is pos
sible on tbe facts and law to hold tbe Presi
dent, Directors, eta, of common carriers re
sponsible for accidents happening to passen
gers, whose lives and limbs they are bound
to insure against negligence, then n great
and beneficial example woald be set these offi
cials. Exacting liberal commutations and
fares, they should be held to the utmost rig.
