Col R A. Alston, Atlanta, Ga.: •
Sir—This noie is ptrtly explanatory,
desire to state candidly what IwtnL
1 .reek nothing but justice. I have asked
for a leimcrion; this ia refused by boibyour-
aelf and Meaara. Grady and Abrams. There
ia hut one alternative, which 1 need not men
tion
Each one of the proprietors of the
“Her .Id” has grossly insulted me I propone
to btiVtS a ill-faction of each I distinctly rec-
■teniz -aif three. Surely (here can be no ques
tion as o my right to decide from whom I shall
jfrsl re-k satisfaction; and, (to be entirely
trank.) I determined trim tbe outset that* this
should tie you mlf. In duing this I disclaim
ant: intention ot slighting Messrs Grady and
A brants, for I distinctly recognize them and
propose to a k of them the same Artissaction
that i ask of you. Of my reasons for this
preference it ia suftioieul tit mem itm two.
Tne flr-1 is that your provocation is greater
than that of Mr. Aorauis, aa you take a step
tuttre—tint!, approving all that Mr. Abrams
said, and in ati.1iti.13 to this, as if to add in
sult 10 insult, denouncing me youneif. My
second reason is, that you are more generally
known than yonr associates, and that 1 have
known you for many yearn. As I am forced
to obtain satisfaction ia this way, of course
1 prefer to choos* aa my first antagonist the
one who occupies the larges' space in the
public eye. anti who -lends in this community
ns high as any man for nooor and courage.
In saying this 1 again disclaim an v disrespect
:o your aas*x-iates, to whom I propose to act
pneiecly aa l act toward you.
I respectfully aak you, aa you refuse me
justice by retraction, tit appoint a friend, with
whom my friend, Mr- iV. D Luckie, can
communicate. Hespectfuilv,

BT The marriage of M. Henri Rochefort
with Mile. Marie Anastas e Renault, recently
celebrated at YTersailles, is said to have been
a very touching ceremony. The bridegroom
arrived st the convent where the bride was

accompanied by three police agents. The
marriage took place in a small room where
Mile. Renault, now Marquise de Rochefort-
Lu.-ay, was lying in the last stage of consump

plaint In presence of the four witnesses and
the Abbe Follet, the Mairv of Versailles read
the civil ceremonypnd it was with^he greatest
difficulty and with a cry of pain that the bride
signed her name. In conformity with the
desire of the dying woman, the civil w&s fol
lowed by the religious ceremony, and when
this rite was ovcrM. Henri Rochefort was left
alone with his wife for half an hoar; then he
was taken back to his ceil, and shortly after

t3T Hugh Chester, of Preston, England,
ordered a handsome coffin for a friend, who
was still alive, thinking it a capital joke. A
day afterward be repented of his liberality,
and called at the' undertaker’s to counter
mand the order; but the coffin being nearly
finished, the undertaker replied:.“Hold thy
noise; I have hired a band of mnsic, and
they are going to bring it up on Tuesday.”
Chester, being compelled to be absent from
home on thst day,gave directions to his wife
to fasten the doors and take in any coffin.
The coffin, however, arrived with a band of
music and a mob of followers, who burst in
tbe stable door and deposited it in that build

Very respectfully yours,

Atlanta, Oa., Dec. 8,1873.
It appears from the columns of urn paper
we have examined that the personal difficulty
now pending between Colonel E. Y. Clarke,
of the Constitcion, and Mr. St- Clair-
Abr&tns. of ihe Herald, seems to h ive orig
inated in an impression on the mtnd of lir.
St. Clair-Abrams that the charges made
against him by W. A. Hemphill & Co. were
of “such a character that, ir true, rendered
him utterly unfit for the society of gentlemen,”'
and “ placed him before he public in the atti
tude of an unprincipled scoundrel.” These
charges especially the one in reference to
“material aid” in the matter of the Associa
ted Press dispatches, and the charge of base
ingratitude,elicited from Mr. ScClair-Abrams,
while laboring under a supposed wrong, »
reply which not only stigmatised the propri
etors ot the Constitution with offensive epi
tbels as regards tbe question :it issue, but Also
referred to a matter personal to Col. Clarke
in such a manner as to impugn his character
as a gentleman
It appears that CoL Clarke, the author of
the editorial which c*ll forth the repy of
Mr. Sc Clair-Abrams, assumed all responsi
bility, as far as the Constitution was con
cerned, and demanded a retraction from the
proprietors of the Herald.
3ir. St. Clair-Abrams, on the other hand,
cla me J prioritv as the senior editor and pro
prietor of tne Herald, and his recognition as_
such by Col. Clarke, led to a correspondence
between them.
These matters having come to our knowl
edge, we have carefully looked into all the
circumstances of tne case, with the h >pe of
being abl to m*ke suggestions which may
lead to a peaceful and Honorable settlement.
This undertaking is wholly voluntary on our
part, and without solicitation from any quar
ter whatever.
As to the j'.iets in dispute, we are clearly of
the opinion ih*t they arc iu no way materia
to the honorable settlement of this difficulty.
We are also satisfied that both gentlemen
have slated what they honestly believed to *
trufa
We are farther of the opinion that Col
Clarke can and ought to diaLim any effort
to place Mr. SC Ciair-Abram- ~ out&ide the
pale of gentlemen, or any effort to bring
upon him public reproach, or reflect' in any
minner woaicver upon his character as
gentleman.”
We are of the opinion that, upon CoL
Clarke masing such disclaimer. Mr. ot. Clair-
Abrams can and ought to retract ali allusions
personally offensive to CoL Clarke.
We are of the opiuiou that up m, the basis
here suggested, this difficnlty can and ought
to be amicallj and honorably adjusted.

first thought that struck ns was why
should any power, human, divine, or satanic,
so persistently seek to injure his fortunes, or
disturb the peace of himself and quiet fami
ly. Surely there was nothing in that face
that would excite the malice of the most evil
disposed.
We were cordially received and conducted
the house where we sat and listened to the
recital by the family of many wonderful
things that they asserted hid transpired there
since oar lust visit.
We were told by Mrs. Surrency—and her
statement was corroborated by those of her
husband, brother-in-law, daughter, and others
of the family, as well as 31r. J. D. Carter—
that on the 12th day of November last, just
after her daughter had put one of the bed
rooms in order and retired from it, closing
doors and windows behind her, the attention
the family was attracted by a noise like
the tumbling about of bedding and the et
cetera* in the room. Upon investigation, it
was found that every particle of bedding and
clothimr in the room was piled in the middle
* the floor. They assert that had any one
been concealed in the room before the mis
chief was done it would have been impossi-
for them to have escaped without detec
tion
On another occasion, a few days after
wards, a similar trick was performed in an
other room, and a ?et of candle-moo ds that
Mrs. >urrency had just a few minutes before
put into a tub of water iu the kitchen was
standing erect on the handle of bedding
when the room was entered. She was in the
kitchen near tne moulds when it occurred,
and slates that no one could have removed
them from the tub without her knowledge.
Mr. Surrency informed us that on several
occasions the window glass would break
without visible contact with any force. A
half of a pane, for a number of days would
ascend and descend in the groove between
the patty and the window frame, as regular
clock, and at about the speed of a mmute
ban 1. It finally broke out
On another occasion, about a week after
wards. while 31rs. sorrency’s little son was
asleep m bed, a smoothing iron struck him in
the back inflicting a painful wound. Several
were in the room, but could not tell where
the iron came from. It was recognized as
one that had been in another room. It must
certainly have been an evil genius that so
rudely roused the little slnmberer from his
peaceful dreams.
It was staled, if-our memory serves ns
rikht, that on the same day a bottle, burled
through the air by the same unseen power,

it with our watch, and it kept perfect time
for three hours. At one o’clock tbe hour-

months all the chambers have been covered
with the new style of corruscated gold and
silver paper. The house has been re-painted,
re-carp, ted, and a number of the rooms re
furnished. From the constant efforts of the

Grand Jury Presentments.
Ful.en Superior Court* October
ierm, 1872.
We, the Grand Jurors sdcctcd ard nrom for the
—— week of the above ramed Term of mid
Court, hare duly considered several matters
to the public wc If are, upon wh‘ch we a^k respectfully
to present our views.
1—THK BALK or ILLUMINATING OILS.
The subject of the sale of oils or burning fluids for
illuminating purposes, has become cne of serious im
portance.
The Legislature of Georgia ptss-d an Act, which was
approved the 34th August, 1870, forbidding the sale of
kerosene oQ which had less than one hundred and ten
degrees Are test This fire test consists (as defined
by the law) in besting water in a basin till a ther
mometer p'aced in it shows 110 degrees Fahrenheit.
Then to poor a spoonful of the oil to be tested ln:o
the water, and pass a wisp of burning paper over it.
If tho escaping vapor catches fire, the oil Is danger.
ous; If not, IU* safe. Any person selling, or offering
for sale, or who shall give sway any oil shown by this
test to be unafe, is made liable to a fine of from $100
to $509—one-halt to go to the informer, one-Tourth to
the Inspector, and the remainder to the County Treas
urer. This Act make 4 ft the business of the Inspector
of Fertilizers In each county to make the inspection;
or. If there be no snch officer, the Ordinary, assisted
by tuch persons as he may choose, shall make It.
On the STth August la-.t the Legislature passed an
amendment toth s act, which imposes.the time pen
alty upon any one sell! i g **illumlnating oils'* made of
coal, petroleum, earth ro"k, or any of their products,
which have not the tame fire test; snd also makes the
person selling, offering to tell, or who gives away
such oils for illuminating purposes, liable io any per
son suffering damage from the ignition of such oil
thus unlawfully sold or kept or offer d for sale
given away. An exception is rnaie where It I* sold
for “making Illuminating gas by Doty's or other sta<
tionary gas machine.'*
This last named act Axes the feet of the Inspector
at $5 for the inspection of all lots less than 400 gal
lons, and oje cent per ga'lon tor all lots more than
400 gallons.
We respectfully pr< sent this Us*, name act as a nui
sance and an oppression. We do not believe the
Legislature properly understood or was we l Informed
on the sabject before them, and In oar opinion the
law ought to be repealed without delay.
Pctro oil, and Gasolino are moat exteveltely need
for illuminating purposes, especially the former
Poeple use it in their houses, stores and shops, and
thousands of families use nothing else for their
principal lights. By many, it is regarded as.ansafe*
dangerous, snd so It la, if not csrefnl-
handled. So also is kerosene, or any
product of petroleum, which will bear the t st
prescribed by law. Tne flame from a burning brand,
or a candle, or kerosene which is no to the legal
standard, wilt consume a house with the same cer
tainty that a 11 'me from any of the lighter oils will.
The truth Is, fir* is a dangerous element, and It re
quires ears in handling It. otherwise it is unsafe.
The articles, whose sale Is thus prohibited by law,
are In each common and expensive ns-, for Illuminat
ing purposes, thst it illy becomes a Legislature to say
that It ia dangeroas, and forbid its sale. Pnblic opin
ion has settled thst question, snd it is beyond the
province of the Legislature to raj that it shall not be
sold for such purposes.
The law dsee not forbid its use by any one who hr.s
It. or who can, by any means, obtain it; hence onr
people now, in great numbers, are sending for it to
markets outside of the State. The oil dealers of
Atlanta, we And, have ceased to sell it, and we are
informed that onr citizens are seeding for It daily to
Chattanooga and other markets. Thus onr people
greatly Inconvenienced and onr merchants dam
aged in a legitimate branch or trade.
If It is proper for our people to buy it In Chatta
nooga, or Cincinnati, o? New York, and have it ship
ped to th«mhere, receive It at our depots, and Ciriy
to and use it on their own premises for making
lights. It ought also to be proper for our ownmer
chants to sell it to them here at home.
When a good and law abiding citizen wants an ar
ticle far necessary and indispensable purposes In his
household, what right has a Legislature ta say thst a
good, law abiding merchant shall not se.l it to him f
We look upon the law as it stands to be one of
peculiar hardship, oppressive In its operations, and
very unjust to onr people. It is certain!v one which
