The light of thg Boston fire was dis tiuctly seen at Portmouth, N. lt», a distance of fifty-five miles by an air line. AT TWO DOLLARS PER ANNUM, , IN VARIABLY IN ADVANCE. Office, Bro.tJ Street, Granite Bow Georgia Arms.—Governor Smith iias received some of the arms for Georgia. He would not apply for them before his own election. The United StiUis.nctliorities would not send them uutjT after .die Presidential election. Georgia was due $25,000 worth of nhn£ Gov. Smith obtained 780 Spriufield breech-loading muskets and 200 sabres and revolvers. He has no artillery yet Eighty-eight companies ’.have applied for arms, including twj urtillery companies. The arms liave to be distributed to nnti-wnr companies according to original priority. The oldest cavalry companies are the Georgia Iluzzars, 1785; Libeity In- dei*cndcnt Troops, 1786; Burke Huz- zars, 1827 ; Jefferson Hussars, 1848; a.ul Sc even Troop, 18 l v .

JNqt xiui Worst Beaten.—The Indiana News says it lias been said a number of times that Mr. Greeley is the worst beaten candidate wlie ever ran for the Presidency. This is a mis take. Several candidates have receiv ed fewer electoral votes thaif he will obtain. In 1832 Henry Clay only- had 30 electoral votes. In 1840, Mar tin Van Bnreu, running for re elec tion as President, liad but 60 votes. In 1852 General Winfield Sait had 42 votes. In 1864 General McClellan had but 21, and hi 1868 Horatio Sey mour had 80. An enthusiastic Nebraska editor says: " Nine months of the year in Nebraska is summer, and the rest is mighty late in the spring." A typographical error which made the word •! business’' read ** bummer” has got the Chicago Times into trouble with a respected patron. “Daddy"' Cain, Cogressman-at- Largefrom South Carolina, was former ly a field hand; but he don’t think he will have a hard row to hoe when he gets U> Washington. bliss Susan B. Anthony and two other ladies registered their names to vote in Rochester. Others have ex pressed a deter mination to go and do likewise. Kentucky only polled some two thousand Straight votes* Grant’s vote is lesg than the Radical vote at the lastclection. Some twenty-five thou sand Democrats did not vote. There is a town out west called Random. A resident of the place being asked where he lived, said he lived at Random. He was taken up as a vagrant. A policeman examined eight hun tired limbs in Memphis before he found the owner of a lost garter. If that man’s night-ware dosn’t come down with the epizootic lie will dream for the rest of his life that it’s raining pipe stems and that somebody has stolen his umbrella. GEORGIA .TEMS. The news from Alabama is oertaiiAy ! of a remarkable character. Members of the Legislature have been arrested for the purpose of destroying the Dem ocratic majority of the lower house, and the Radical minority have organ ized liy themselves, swearing in several men who were neves- elected. We r<$ret exceedingly to perceive that the Federal authorities are taking part in these rascally proceedings, and we trust that thc.administration at Washington will not support them in their efforts to'-coerce Alabama into receiving a '3a.'— tvMini ucgtauuurc nor The latest estimate of losses from the Boston fire are considerably less than was at first: believed to have been destroyed. Fourteen millions for real estate and eventy millions for the stocks of goods destroyed, it is now thought, will fully cover everything. Caught His Moth eh-in-Law.— Under die head of “ cruel,” the Savan nah Advertiser relates the following cheerful incident: A gentleman residing in the suburbs, who has suffered from the incursions ■of chicken thieves to an unpleasant degree, armed himself with a spring *tmp, and a few evenings sauce set it in tlie most eligible place in his back yard. Unfortunately he caught his mother-in-law instead of the thief, but he has managed to conceal his disap pointment se skiHfuIUy that no one iiasyet suspected that he felt any. The Wisconsin Journal of Education •gives seven maxims for teachers, which are worthy of considers Cob : ** Never teach -what you Sdon't quite know. Never tell a child what you can make Kim tell yon.

It is also stated in the Norfolk papers that numbers have been discharged from the *avy yard at Portsmouth, Va. The New York papers say there will also be a great reduction—about 2,000—in that navy yard. S xhati Defeated.—The Jack- c (Fla.)

It is the custom of the disciplined Radical voters to rock houses oii the suburbs of Augusta. The Ilcar1 County Nats states that Joseph E. Brown is going to the West Indies to “ re-Cuba rate” his health. An Atlanta lady recently refused a tvggnr fifty cents, and the papers allude to it as an example of Roman firmness. At the session of Koine Supreme Court last week 23 criminal cases were tried and resulted in thirteen cunvietions. Jack Robinson, alias.

A trestle work o» the Air Line mad, in course of construction, tell last week. It wus 1,000 feet long, and nearly one hundred feet high. We are glad to hoar that Mr. Stephens is again strong enough to leave his home. He will probably visit Atlanta this week and possibly remain several days. The editor of the Madison Appeal has Ikc:i shown a bihlc, published in the year 1048—making it 221 years of age. It is the property of Rev. Mr. Oliver, of that place. The Atlanta and Richmond Air-Line Railroad will be completed and in runn ing order to the Savannah river by the 25lh ot DecctnlK-r, and to Charlotte, North Carolina, by March.

Three miles ahead I saw picket guard of eight white men, dress ed in yiantaloous only, and about one hundred negroes, the majority of whom were naked. The Insurgent’s horses, ammunition and arms were in a very fair condition, but their ammu nition were scarce. Meat, vegetables, lemons and oranges were abundant. They had no coffee, but use as a bev erage hot water sweetened with honey, which they call Cuba fibre.” Nomination for Mayor anil Aldermen. We give the vote for the nomina tion of Mayor and Aldermen of Athens. Our acequaintanco with Mr, P.'ttarcl is very limited, hut we hear him highly spoken of by all classes. It is said he has filled the office one or two terms previously, and did his whole duty. It was a close race be tween At. I ittard and Dr. King, both v.-ry popular. Dr. King we are much better acquainted with, and know him fo 1m a thorough gentleman.

Macon, charge 1 with committing a rape upon a little white girl n&iucd Flaunagin, only twelve years old. There is said to be sufficient proof to convict the villian. This is the second case of the kind which has occur red in Ribb county in two weeks. The horse disease has made its appear ance in Atlanta and Savannah, according to the Herald and News. The Herald says it is snreading in the affected local ities in Atlanta with “great rapidity.” The News says there are an unusual number ol tick hor e. in Savannah though it has not heard of any fatal cases. Both the street car and the police stables have been attacked. An agent in a Central railroad depot tells tho Macon Telegraph that last year the average weight to the cotton bale at his'stntiou was four hundred and eighty seven pounds. This year, bo far, it is only four hundred and thirty-five pounds —fifty-two pounds short last year’s average. Here is nearly eleven per cent, short, and if this deficit is general it becomes vastly important in figuring up cotton receipts this year. Two little Macon boys went out to have some fun with a shot-gun tbe other day. One of them took his stand behind a tree and held out his hat. There being aomo little delay on the part, of the shooter, the holder of the hut stuck his head out to see what was the matter. He was just in time to discover. The family physician says it is singular how many shot one boy’s face will hold. Marietta enjoys a ghost The Journal says: “ When he enters the house loud noises are heard, the cat is kicked from one part of the house to another, the dog irons are rapped, the crockery ware is broken, tables and chairs are turned over, hot brickbats are pitched at the servant and hot words at the wife of the household, and a demoniac yell falls upon the children's cars: “ Clear out, dad’s come home drunk.” Louisville, Kt., Oct. i—Please allow me, through the colanps of your paper, to express a few opi ions, and do not marvel at my presu iptiou in making this request when I issert, to begin with, that I belong to that class of persons known as mile women! Do not, I beseech you, let vus asser tion so disgust you as to cjst this in the waste basket without rpding fur ther. I have heard a late concerning |be taken to rid Louisville of _. c , ing presence. To accomplisltliis pur pose seems to be all that is [needed to make Louisville a moral city, as we are regarded os one of .the greatest, prevailing evils; and I do tet pretend, to dispute the fact. On the oilier, hand, I admit our evil fnfii ence over the community at large, ana I regret that I have fallen—that th re is such a thing in existence as a fill en woman —but regrets are useless We are here, all the same, and the uestiou is, what are we do if our home i are brok en up ? Some one might e! claim, go to work. That is a good lea. to be sure. But where is the work? There are but few amoug us but would pre fer work to our present mo< e of living. But where is the work?l Will the spoilers of our homes give! us employ ment ? Would they open | their doors to us and say, “ Here is a pome; here is a chance for you to earif an honest living ?* Would their wrra£*&iugh- ters or sisters- give i» a mtinSmf wel come, a word of encouragement ? Far from it. To the reverse, they would shrink from the contamination as they would from poison. And here • is an illustration. I will in a brief manner give a bit of my experience. I be came remorseful for my sins. I re solved to reform. I started out in quest ofa home. I found otic iu a part of the city where I wa3 unknown 1 accepted the* first one offered—wages oiv' dollar per week, I went about my duties with a light heart during theday. At night I was summoned to join the family circle to attend prayers, previous to retiring. No pen can portray tho emotions I experieneed while kneeling there. How vividly the scene brought to my mind my childhood’s homo. How glad I was to have found a homo like this. Then my conscience rose to accuse me. Was I doing right to remain with this good family an imposter ? Ought 1 not to make a confession, and abide by their decision iu regard to staying ? 1 confided my story next day to the lady of the house. I bum bled myself to ask to be allowed to re main—promising to do right. What was tbe result ? She would like very much to oblige me, but she oould not conscientiously do so. Would advise me to enter some charitable institu tion. Well, my ambition was gone; my hopes crushed; and I, as may be pposed, returned to my old starting point. I could‘not sail under false colors. I was honorable enough not to impose myself unknown in their household was repulsed when known This is only one case. Thousands such remain untold. And people preach np reformation for fallen wo- ten—pray for them, yet refuse teen age them even as menials in their ouseholds: I do not write this be cause I am opposed to the object of abolishing this evil. But I say, go on with yeinr work. No one wishes for your success more than L J&at I —■MaaiApaBi words. Offer employment to the out casts. There are but few women despair. On that one degraded and ienolffe form are concentrated the pas sions that might have filled the world with shame. She remains, while creeds and civilization rise and fall, the eternal priestess of humanity, blasted for the sins of the people.” Respectfully submitted, W. Jenkins, Chief of Police. Louisville.

From the Borne Commercial. BILL ABP ON THE COLLAPSE. As the poet sed, “ theagony is over.’ Them cards in the sleeve would have beat any honest man. Bes-i-des, as Thomp. Allan would say, we playd badly. Baltimore Convention and O’Conor and Aleck Stephens and lim ited supply of votes has brat us. Well, we still live. I’m not goin to bed about it. Old Greeley ain’t no kin to me. Grant ain’t neither, and that’s what’s the. matter. I talked for Greeley and writ for him and voted for him, hut I never did hanker after him. It made such' an everlnstin fuss in my family I had like to rnn away. You see Mrs. Arp wasen’t rekonsiled. She were a strait, and when she ain’t rekonsiled ih'ngs aint os plassid as a silver lake around my house. I don’t mean that times is hot or desperate, but to say the least of it they are pekuliar. A man likes to hav his bed and his board sereeu. Don’t he ? So you seo, as my wife was a strait, it dident be come me to be very crooked. And I want—at home. She’s a good oiuan, and she’ll endure everything and never grunt nor groan, but she won’t oom- periuiao worth a cent. I told her I bad no pertikler use for Greeley, and that he was a darned old infatyated hum bug, but that our paper belonged to the great inferryfidc, uusatisfide, trans- morgrifide Democratic party, and must keep into line. She sed sum remarks about papers lyin by the day and by the week, and about self-respect and independence and the like, and I grow meek like Moses in a few minutes. The fact is. Fra a meek man I’ve laid awake of night? a ruminatiu how meek I was. Mrs. Arp thinks the paper ought to take “ truth” for a motto and work up to it. I told her it would bo a dan gerous experiment, but she says it has never been tried yet. If 1 wasent afeered the little Arps would perish to doth during the experiment I would try it. Old Sliank says we can’t be worsted for lie has tride lyin for 20 years and it won’t pay. He says it would be au episode in tho press, a kuriosity something like a'elephant or an eklipse or John Robyson’s circus. Ho says sometimes a paper suksceds by lyin, like the New York Herald and Tribute and Forney’s paper, but it has to be well backed. The Herald has got so now it can quit party and set bock in a cheer and tell the truth in its old age; like an old spekulator who has made a fortune by chratin and lyin and then puts his money in stocks and retires. He says that S olitical papers lie from 90 per cent. own to 10, and that Forney is the only editor who ever went full up to 100 and kept it there. Well, now that Grant has got in, I don’t see any necessity for runnin the Commercial at a high pressure. If all the lyin issues ain’t did, they are past' doctoring. Now is a good time to go to devdopin tho country. We can raise children and chickens by tbe 1,000 in 4 years. Borne of our folks is a tellin around how tho country could have been saved, and all that. • -Old - New Adverti sements. Music Store! degraded but kind words Will reach their hardened hearts.

The experience of this poor woman is that of thousands more. “ There are plenty of kind hearts to commiser ate the condition of fallen women ; but what has been done to prevent or re lieve? Fathers and mothers, who send their sons ami daughters from quiet country home, to mingle with the busy throng in the crowded city, little dream of the ten thousand allhre- ments and temptations that beset them on every side.

On last Sunday night Dr. Stark, of this • city, received a dispatch from Topeka for Dr. Milligan, which was at once forwarded to that gentleman’s residence in West Kansas. The dis patch was from a warm personal friend of Dr. Milligan, summoning him to Topeka immediately. He supposed at once that something unusual was the matter, so bidding his wife and family adieu, he left for Topeka The same night Ids house was destroyed by fire, leaving his family out in the streets, as has already been reported in the Times. WHAT WAS FOUND AT TOPEKA. Dr. Milligan found, on his arrival at TopekA, that he hod been called upon to attend the bedside of the wife of an old friend of his, who was suffer ing from a severe illness. He prescrib ed for the ]>atient and started out upon the street, when he was met by Dr. Saruauel Ashmore, with whom he was upon terms of the closest intimacy. He was warmly welcomed, and accom- paied him to his house, and during his stay in Topeka was with him frequen tly, but during this time observed no signs of anything suspicious or vicious in Ashmore's conduct. He informed him that he bad made a bet of one thousand dollars on, Grant’s election, and was confident of winning his wager. ON THE MORNING OF THE MURDER. On Wednesday morning Dr. Mil ligan met with Dr. Ashmore and was invited by him to accompany him out for a drive over tho city, which invita tion was accepted. Ashmore appear ed to be flushed and excited by liquor, ami very boisterously jubilant over the election of General Grant. Soon after leaving Ashmore’s residence, Dr. Mil ligan observed that the team they were driving was a fractious one, and that in Ashmore’s inebriated condition it was liable to run away. Ho took the reins from Ashmore and said he would drive, that ho could manage the team better. Ashmore now showed the first indications of the frenzy and madness which terminated i:i the butchery of his wife. He drew a revolver and pointed it at Dr. Milligan, and told him to give up the reins or he would shoot him dead in an instant, at the same time cocking the pistol. Dr. Milligan, surprised at the violence manifested, jumped out of the buggy and started to walk back to the house of Dr. Ashmore. The latter started tho team, but fell out of the boggy before going for. Dr. Milligan ran to hi3 assistance, stopped the tram, and assisted Dr. Ashmore to get in again. Ho then turned the buggy and drove back to the house. PIANOS, AND SMALL INSTRUMENTS For mle Cheap tor Cub, or on Monthly In»tal- menU. I. W. HALL AM, nor22-tf Next to Episcopal Church, Athens.

Money or means she lias none; food and raiment site must have; the doors of her old associates ure always open to receive her, where she is agniu surrounded with influences that will surely drag her down to their common level.” The Great Master has set us an example, when'he said to the trembling woman, “Neither dol condemn tiiec; go and sin no more. Let Christian women, instead of shrinking with scorn and contempt from the fallen, extend a kindly hand to the Magdelene, and raise her from her degradation. Let them provide work and homes for their fallen sisters, and seek them out, and encourage them, and aid them in their^Mtempts to lead a virtuous life. • The advice given by the atithor ot the article above referred to will bear notice, though it comes up from the depths. Their condition is a sad one indeed, and while we are convinced that pros titution ran never be wholly ernaicat- ed, we can, at least, by proper offorts diminish it in a greater or less degree. A gentleman of learning, wisdom, and Christian philanthrophy, thus speaks of this unhappy being: “ There has arisen in society a figure which is cer tainly the most mournful, and. in, some respects the most awful, upon which the eye of the moralist can dwell. That unhappy being, whose very name is a shame to speak; who counterfeits with a oold heart the transports of af fection, and submits herselfas the pas- rive instrument of last; who is scorn, cd and insulted as the vilest of her sex, and doomed for the most part to dis, ease, and abject wretchedness, and an early death; appears in every age as a perpetual symbol of the degradation and sinfulness of man. Herself the supreme type of vice, she is ulthnstely the most efficient guardian of virtuo, Bijt for bar the unchallenged purity of countries happy homes would be pol luted, and not a few who, in the pride of their .untempted chastifv, think of her with on indignant shudder, would have known tho agony of remorse and don’t.

Ashmore tied his team before the door and entered the house. In a short tinio afterward Dr. Milligan was star tled to hear two shots fired in the house, one immediately after the other. Ho hurried a3 fast as possible to tbe _. _ house with anxious foreboding of S trouble. Entering the house, a horri- * ' *“ * ble spectacle met his sight. In the kiteken he discovered Dr. Ashmore in the brutal task of chopping oat his wife’s breasts with a common hatchet. Mrs. Ashmore lay dead in the centre of the kitchen floor, sbot-throaah tl*» head. He had fired at her immedi ately on entering the house, and killed her while she was attempting to escape by shooting her through the back of the head. He then picked up a hatchet and was engaged in the atrocious act of chopping out her heart when Dr- Milligan entered the. room. Ashmore immediatly sought refuge or conceal ment behind a safeor bureau, and drew his revolver. Dr. Milligan, perceiv ing that it was a desperate case, re quiring prompt and desperate action, rushed upon the the drunken madman, when a desperate struggle ensued. Ashmore fought and struggled with the fury of a madman, which he cer tainly was. He received some heavy blows in the head and face from Mil ligan, and was, with some assistance, finally secured. It required tho com bined strength of ten men to take him from the honse to the jail, so fierce and so superhumanly strong was he in his desperation. He is securely confined in jail, awaiting investigation. It is the most horrible affair ever known in Topeka, and has no doubt caused a great sensation in that beau- titul young city.
