the case of Pen Bedell, charged with the murder of
Policeman Rasbcrry, was culled. His oouoerf, Gen.
Girt Ml, moved for a continuance on the ground of
aliisvee of important witneasea. The motion for con

Then tae case of tbe State va. Mosea H. Bentley,
charg d with the murder of Malcolm Claiborne, a
membfT of the Stole Legislature, in the eummer of
1870. was called.
His counsel. Colonel S B Spencer, made a ^motion

The Ural witness on behalf of the State waa
W. r. WZSTJf OKIXAXD, M. D.
About July. 1870 I wa* called upon to examine the
b >dy of Malcomc (lalborn. Tbe first I saw of him he
i my offl;e yard. When I saw him be waa
d-wd; the body was warm; he had died within an
hour previously. I made an examination of the body
afterwards. I found a gnn shot wound. The wound
his left side. The ball passed through the
lower portion of the heart, aud perhaps through both
lunga. I only saw one wound. He died from that
wound. The next witreee waa
*. W. J. HILTre
who testified. In summer of 1870,1 was in Capitol
building, and saw some of the difflen'ty between de
fendant and deceased; I waa going along the passage
Hall of the Representatives, for purpose of
going into the gallery of the Senate; I entered the
building from Forsyth street; I had passed the door
going into It presentative Hall, and when 1 got with
in four or fire feet of tbe steps going down to Ma
rietta street, my attention waa attracted by someone
saying, "Take it back," and instantly a pistol fired; I
recognised the defendant bnt not the deceased; be said
again,"take it back," and filed again; tbe third time be
said ‘ take it back," &ua Arad; after the first fire de
ceased commenced turning round, moving round
siowly; be moved rouno and started down the step*,
and defendant exploded a cap at him after the third
fl-c; I never *aw defendant after that; tbe hall waa
fil ci Immediately with a crowd from the Hall of
Ri-prcsentaUvca, and I never saw defendant after be
itxsecd me going to the cloak room, (here a diagram
was shown to witness, and he explained the position
of the parties at the time of the difficulty; at the time
of the fit ii'g defendjnt and deceased were pretty close
togethr r, not exceeding two feet apart; after the third
deceased tori.ed clear round and started down
the steps; then ho waa ont of my sight when defend
ant expir'd'd the cap at him; 1 did not eee If the de
based fell; I saw no more of him ; at the time of
firing 1 did not krov deceased; I thought it was
auother person; f saw nothing in his hands; I think
he dia not shoot; last time I saw defendant ho was
la the aisle, going with his pistol in hta hand; he was
watklng at an ordinary speed; I think thia occurred
b.-tween 9 and 10 o'clock, before tbe Senate met.
On cross-examination witness said: I at first
supposed tbe person shot waa Wallace,
there had been a difficulty before
bitwren him and defendant; there was no one with
Claiborne at all; I waa about the entrance of tbe
Cleric's room; I did not go on, but stepped back two
or three steps, and Bentiy passed me; at the first
firing I stepped back a few steps, as it waa pretty
reckless shooting; he had the pistol in both bands,
and I did not want to pet shot myself; the firing wi a
very quick; take it back and fire, take it back and
fire, lake it back and fire; the fourth cap exploded as
he went down stair*.
The next witness waa
col. v. r. HILL,
who testified to the same facto as far ae he saw them.
He testified that as he entered the stairway from Ma
rietta street and had taken a step or two inside, he
heard some one at the head of the steps aay "Take it
back, you damned’*—Ac., or words to that effect
Tbai remark attracted my attention. Hooked np and
saw Clalborn giving back, at tho head of the stairs.
About the same time I heard the report of a pistol,
could not ace the person who fired It I turned back
and got behind the iron pillar. I heard three shots.
I then opened the door and went upstairs again.
Clalborn waa about falling or sitting cm the a tops. I
asked him if he wa* trart, out he did not answer.
The State announced cloeed. The first witnes of
fered for the defense waa.
BOmXRT WEBSTER ALIAS TAXCKT,
who testified to considerable squabbling and difficulty
among the members or what he term 2d the Constitu
tional Convention and members of the Legislature.
Among these were the deceased, Wallace, a colored
Senator, Alpooria, the noted Wahoo, Tunis G. Camp-
bell, anothe r co.wrcd Senator, and Bentley, th * de
fendant. They hsd boarded with witness, and the
qaarrel wax<nl so warm among them that Bentley and
Wallace deemed it advisable to secede. Witness
h ard rept-s ed threats made by Wallace and deceased
against defendant,of which he had notified and warned
defendant only a short time previous to the killing
of Clalborn.
The next witness waa
J. O. XiCTL, n. s,
who was at the time a member of the House of Rep-
reeentalfvra from Mateogee county. He testified
that on the morning of the cifficalty be was in
Tersatl: n with Bcntiey, when the deceased came aud
asked one of the Page* for letters. Beaticy being
tbe Meraenger, answered Clalborn. Ctoiborn imme
diately said, "Didn't I tell yon not to speak to
you (using profane language.) goon after thia
I wa* in the passage way aud heard Wallace and
Claiborne in conversation. Did not distinctly hear
all that was said They were very excited in man
ner, and were speaking about Bentley. I immediately
went to Bentley and warned him to beware of them—
attend to his own business, and keep out of their
company Rmtiey had then mail matter io his n*™fo,
and stated that he waa obliged to carry the mail to
the Post Office, and get out tho morning’s mail. The
place of the alleged difficulty waa on his road to the
Post Office.
At the conclusion of his testimony Court adjourned
until tais morning. •

Living Advertisements.—A medicine
that has done more than all the prescription
of the pharmaoopacia to protect the human
system against the bodily ills superinduced
by unhealthy surroundings, ia certainly wor
thy of universal confidence. It is mainly ou
account of ita extraordinary preventive prop
erties that Hoatetteria Stomach Bitten is so
popular in localities subject to tbe visitations
or miasmatic fevers and other diseases pro
duced by empoisoned air. A family ihat has
escaped sickness daring a sickly season in
consequence of using the Bitters as a safe
guard, is a living advertisement of the virtues
of the preparation. The w hole neighborhood
realize the f*ct “ I couldn’t have believed it,”
says one. *• I scarcely credited the advertise
ment; bnt one most believe what one sees,”
says another. 44 It is the very thing we need
in this unwholesome section of country,”
remarks a third. And the result is that the
instinct of self-defense, the first law of na
ture, inducea three-fourths of ihAt community
to obtain a supply of the great vegetable an
tidote before the next sickly season sets in.
In winter when the system requires extra
vigor and elasticity to enable it to baffle the
effects of dump and cold, the Bitters will be
found particularly serviceable. Kheumatism
will not be apt to fasten upon muscles and
nerves that have been braced up by this ex
cellent invigorant and nervine; nor will the
severities of the season, which have such a
disastrous effect on the pulmonary organs of
the feeble and delicate, be likely to exercise
the same untoward influence in cases where
the stomach and the external surface of the
boar (which always sympathizes with the
digestive organs) have been stimulated by a
course of the restoratives. The fits of inoi-
gestion and irregularities of the bowels which
proceed from sudden changes of weather
may always be averted by a timely u^e of the
Bitters. dec3-deodlw&wlL
The Arlington Hotel of Washington, D.
C., for the third time since its opening, has
undergone a complete embellishment. It was
originally fitted up in grand style, with every
convenience, elegance and luxury that expe
rience, taste and judgment could desire and
money accomplish. During the summer suc
ceeding, it was beautifully frescoed aud re
novated throughout. Within the past two
mouths all the chambers have been covered
with the new style of corruscated gold and
silver paper. The house has been re-painted,
re-carpeted, and a number of tHc rooms re
furnished. From the constant efforts of the
Messrs. Roessle, to beautify and improve It,
"The Arlington” is now far more luxurious
and magnificent than when first opened, and
is beyond question what they designed it
should be—The Hotel of the Capital,

We are pleased to observe that Gov. Smith
appointed Col. B. W. Frobel Commissioner
and member of the Board of Commissioners
for the improvement of the navigation of the
Ohio and its tributaries. We learn that CoL
Frobel left here for Washington last night to
be present at the meeting of the Board,
which meets in that city daring the present
month.
Wc heartily approve the selection Governor
Smith has made for this important position.
Col Frobel ia thoroughly familiar, not only
with the working of onr present system of
internal improvement, bnt also knows foil
well iu deficiencies and onr needs. In this
matter of opening the navigation of these
riven, and especially the Tennessee, Georgia
is deeply interested, especially in view of the
fact that she may at no distant day become
one of, if not the principal, outlets to the
Atlantic for that vast trade which now in
part centen at St Louis. We are glad to sec
UuU oor energetic and progressive Governor
is fully alive to the importance of doing
something toward securing for ns the advan
tages of a trade so vast and important, and
that he is of that school of statesmen who
look tn tbe future, and wonld not leave os
immersed in our present financial troubles
and bitter proverty. Governor Smith will re
ceive the full approbation of every man in
Georgia possessed of the ordinary degree of
common sense. We confess that we believe
in the parly of material progress. We be
lieve that in thia policy oor bat interests are
involved, and we snpport Gov. Smith as hear
tily as we have ever done upon this issue.
New York, November 39.—The New
York Tribune says: The melancholy death
of the Editor and founder of the Tribune,
though for a feWr days it had been expected
by his family and intimate friends, falls upon
ns with ail the shock, of sudden calamity.
He had reached, indeed, a ripe old age, but
time had not laid its withering touch upon
him. His splendid constitution easily bore
the strain of enormous labor. His mind waa
as fresh and strong, and suggestive as in the
prime of life. His generous impulses were
unqnclled by the disheartening {experience
through tho trying campaign which
haa just closed; his physical vigor,
his tact, his intellectual activity,
surprised even those who knew him best, and
seemed to promise many years of usefulness.
It is certain that not a history of the most criti
cal period in our national life can be written
in which Greeleyishall not be a conspicuous
figure, bnt the noblest career in his eye was
that which is given np to other’s wants. The
successful life was that which is worn rut in
conflict with wrong and woe, and the only
ambition worth following was the ambition
to alleviate human misery and leave
the world a little better than he
found it. That he had done it, was the con
solation which brightened his last days, and
assured him he had not liTcd in vain. It is
not for ns, in the first hour of our Iosb to paint
his character or catalogue his virtues, al
though for several months wc have missed
the inspiration of his presence and guidance
of his wise counsel. His spirit has never
ceased to animate those chosen to continue
his works, and the close bond of sympathy
between tbe chief and his assistants has never
beenbroken. We leave Illspraiacstothe poor,
whom he succored: to the lowly, whom be
lifted up; to the slave, whose back he saved
from the lash; to the oppressed whose wrongs
he made his own.
The Herald in its editorial on Greeley says
that he has, in a mistaken aspiration for a
higher field of usefulness and power and
glory than journalism, fallen a sacrifice to
his political ambition. He had failed to ap
preciate the commanding po-ition which he
had secured as a leading American journal
ist, and leaving it to pursue the ignis fatuis
of the Presidency he dropped tbe substance
for the shadow of a great distinction. Other
wise the history and the enduring rewards of
Mr. Greeley’s industrious and useful career
are full of encouragement to young men who
without capital, personal influence nr power
ful friends have the battle of life before them
INCIDENTS OF ItR. GRRRLKX’S DEATH.
The accounts published of Mr. Greeley’s
last moments represent him to have been
concions daring the day, as usual in cases of
inflamation of the brain. His physical suf
fering was extremely slight. The increased
morbid action of tbe mind was evident
from exterior manifestations. He was asked
Doyouknow that yon are dying f” Withoui
tremor or emotion, he answered, "Yes.”
Again, when asked if he recognized
Mr. Beid, he looked np with immediate
recognition, lifting his hand, grasped Mr
Reid’s hand feebly, said distinctly, "Yes.”
His last words were: “It is .done." His face
hardly changed, only settling into a look of
perfect peace.

WASHIN GTON,
CONGRESSIONAL.
Washington, December 2.—The Senate
passed the House resolution regarding Mr.
Greeley and adjourned, after reading the
•message.
The debt statement shows a decrease of the
debt of $1,123,000.
Coin in the treasury $69,300,000. ’Currency
$10,125,000.
The treasury report says that the necessity
exists for a new issne of national bank notes.
The Secretary exonorates the Assistant Sec
retary of the treasurer, Hillhouae, from ne
glect of duty in the stamp division of the
assistant treasury department of New York.
The Secretary again recommends the pas
sage of tbe bill to amend and consolidate the
navigation and customs collection laws of
the United States. ,
As the leading pursuits of the country are
cow stronger than ever before in the posses
sion of adequate capital and a supply of in
telligent laborers, there may be a moderate
reduction from time to time in the rate of
duties, as the diminishing expenses of gov
ernment shall perilSt, without either alarm
ing capital or injuring labor. He says: The
circulation of the banks should be fixed and
limited, and that the power to change the
volume of paper in circulation within limits
established by law should remain in tbe treas
ury department A degree of flexibility in
the volume of currency is essential for two
reasons, first, the business of tbe department
cannot l« transacted properly if a limit Is
fixed and the power to raise the circulation
above or reduce it below that limit is denied.
Secondly, there is a necessity every antumn
for moving the crops without delay from the
South and West tn the seaboard, that they
may be in hand for export and
consumption as wanted. The problem
is to find s way of increasing the currently
for moving the crops aud diminishing it at
once, when that work is done. This is a ne
cessary work, and inasmuch as it cannot be
confided to tlie banks, the power should be
reposed in the Treasury department. Be
lieving that the country is not prepared to
sustain the policy of contraction, the Secre
tary considers the "Means by which the vsiue
of our currency may be improved, the basis
of the policy of the improvement must
be found in a sturdy refusal to add to the
paper in circulation until it is of the same
value essentially as coin. Thia being ac
cepted as the settled purpose of the country,
there can be no permanent increase of the
difference between paper and coin, and an op-
portunity will be given for the influence of nat
ural causes tending upon the whole to a better
financial condition. All legislation limited in
its operation the paper issues of the govern
ment, whether bearing interest or not, and
which in its effects shall tend to diminish the
market value of coin will be found upon
analysis to contain a plan for contracting
tho volume of paper currency, and all legis
lation so limited which does not contain such
plan will prove ineffectual.
The Secretary, without proceeding to the
discussion of the general subject of resuming
specie payments} thicks that all wid
have been gained that is of value
when the Treasury shall be prepared to pay
the demand notes of the government in coin,
and the banks shall be prepared to pay their
notes cither in coin or legal tender notes,
and then our good fortune will clearly ap
pear in this, that our paper currency is not
exclusively of National Bank notes nor
exclusively of ^United States notes.
In the House, alter organization, the fol
lowing was adopted:
Mr. Dawes rose and said:
Mr. Speaker: Believing that all will con
cur in the Drepriety of a public recognition
of the events so impressive and so without a
parallel in the history of this Government
that have recently transpired, I deem it
proper to offer the following resolution:
Resolved, by the Senate and House of Rep
resentstivts, in view of the recent death of
Horace Greeley, for whom at the late election
more than three million votes were cast for
President, that a record be made in the jour
nals of Congress of appreciation for the
emiuent services and personal purity and
worth of the deceased, and of the sad impres
sion created by bis death, following a keen
family bereavement
This resolution was nn&nimously adopted.
The vole against accepting Banks’ resigna
tion was 39 to 76.
Poland, Banks, Beck, Niblack, McCrary,
were appointed a committee to investigate
the credit Mobillier.
After a short recess the President’s mess
age was at 1:40, P. ML, received and read.

LETTER FROM TH3 NATIONAL DEMOCRATIC
COMMITTEE.
New York, December 2.—The following
letter has been issued by the National Demo
cratic Committee:
H’Dq’RS Nat.’l Dem. Com., )
New York, Dec. 2d, 1872. j
The National Democratic Committee do
not regard i- as within the scope of the an-
The Npeakeinhip of the Next House
of Representative, of sbe General
Assembly.
We are authoritatively informed that the
Him. George F. Pierce, of Hancock county,
whose name has been frequently mentioned
in connection with this position, has decided
not to be a candidate therefor, and that he
will earnestly snpport the nominttion and
election of the Hon. A. O. Bacon, of this
county. This retirement of Mr Pierce leaves
the field to Messrs. Bacon and W. D. Ander
son, of Cobb county, there being no other
candidates named for the position in question
so far as we are informed.
When it is remembered that Mr. Trammel,
of Dalton, is strongly pressed for re-election
as President of the fienate, and that in all
probability he will be successful; and when
it is further remembered that there are five
candidates from North Georgia, alone,
named byltheir friends for United Stales
Senator, one of whom will, in all likelihood,
be chosen, it docs seem that this section
should hare some showing in the distribu
tion of honors. And especial y when she
offers a man so thoroughly iiuixceptioiiable
in every respect—so entirely fitted reason of
ability and faithful service to digoifv and
adorn the Speakership as Captain Bacon.—
