Nashville, May Ml. —The universal
tilotilt* of conversation hero is the fran
chise, and liov it is affected by the re
cent decision of the Supreme Court at
Brownsville. Judge Shackelford, of
the Supreme' bench, arrived in Nash- ,
villo to-day, and from private conver
sation with this gentleman, it is made
certain that the decision is broad and
sweeping as the people of the State
could desire. It, was unanimous by
the court. Under the decision eve-,
ry man who has received a c-ertificaltv
whether from a County Clerk or Keg-,
ister, is entitle,,! to vote. This decis
ion will expand the franchise at least
40,000. County Clerks, under whoso
supervi ion registration was conducted
under the first law, are getting blanks
printed for the purpose of issuing du
plicates to those who liavo lost 1 heir
certificates.
IVm. B. Stokes, of the candidates
for Governor, lias gone to Washington,
for the purpose of consulting witli his
friends as to the policy of announcing
himself, on the platform of universal j
suffrage, and the late Supreme Court
decision has driven Gov. Senter, the
other candidate, to East Tennesscs to
consult his friends as to the situation,
and the policy best to be pursued. It
is eri ' that one or the other must
come out on board and liberal ground.
The Conservative press all over the
State is opposed to running opposition
candidates either for Governor or the
legislature. The universal expression
is for liberal Republicans who will go
for universal suffrage.
There is a lull just now in the can
vass. Both Stokes and Senter are
measuring strength and getting ready
for combat. It is evident that Stokes
lias all the conservative moderate Re
publicans on his side, with a large
proportion of negroes.

Judge Parrott Assassinated—Anoth

mation from Curb rsvillo that Hon. J.
It. Parrott, who will be remembered
as the President or the Constitutional
Convention, and since appointed Judge
of the Cherokee Circuit by Governor
Bullock, was shot from his horse and
killed yesterday, while On his way from
Kin ley’« to Cartersviile. Thus perish

The Macon Telegraph takes the
above from the American Union, pub
lished and edited by J. Clarke Swayze,
who has been indicted for an incen
diary article he printed some time
back.
We. paw the paragraph on Sa'tiimay,
bnf .p'.adc no allusion to it, because,
while we did not believe the statement,
we thought it best to wait and see if
it had any confirmation. The Era de
nies it, on what, authority we do not
kno.w. As we hear nothing further of
it, the conclusion is strong that it is
untrue. Had it have been true, we
would have hud further particulars
before this.
Wo do not know Swayzo savo
through his paper. We havo made it
,a rule to say little of such men as him,
because we do not Avjsh to write them
into notoriety, the very thing they de
sire.
In alhuliug to him we fed as if wo
were, haguclling garbage. No right
thinking man can peruse what he
writes without shrinking from the ex
hibition of base depravity. There are
men who seem to occupy in the world
the position the vulture does among
birds. They thrive on the fetid and
the foul—the diet that is death to no
bler constitutions. This creature seems
to be such a ghastly and ill-omened
bird.
His paper is supported mainly by
Northern patronage, and was probably
established for the very purpose of
poisoning Northern sentiment against
us. it resorts to every species of ma
levolent mendacity for our injury.
From the pure falsehood to thp inge

ination to either Knoxville or Chatta

If Knoxville should be selected. Cin
cinnatti will fail to reach die consum
ers of Ohio products by tlio shortest
route, and at the lowest rate of freight;
ahd Ix)se, instead of gaining, the best
shipping j>crt cither for Europe, the
West Indies, or South America; while
theWato Hoad, the citizens of Georgia,
t lorida, and n large portion of Ala
bartiawnd Mississippi, will be losers—
inasmuch as the distance will be great
er, the grades higher, and the time
longer, thus causing consumption of
time, and enhancing cost of transpor
tation.
As already intimated, should Knox
ville he selected ns the Southern termi
nus, the citizens of Georgia will be se
riously effected, through diminished
income from the Western Atlantic
Railway* occasioned by the diver.-ion of
freight towards (Jharlekon ; while Louis
ville, as the competitor of Cincinnati,
will be in as good condition to com
mand the trade south of Chattanooga,
as now. In fact LouwviJie ccuid afford
to pay largely to moire Knoxville as the
Southern terminal point of the contem
plated road from Cincinnati, for this
very reason. The longer distance, and
the delay conseqont upon transhipment
at Knoxville, would, give her an advan
tage' in tho contest for Southern and
South American trade by no means
unimportant.
But aside from the rivalry between
these two great cities of the Northwest,
both of which are our friends the ques
tion of the Southern terminal point, is
one of great concern to Georgia, her
roiid, and our city. Thus viewing it,
we are glad to hear that the Superin
tmuleut of the State Road, Col. Hub
bert, learning that a pressure unfavor
able to the interests of the State was
being brought to bear upon influential
parties in Cincinnati, to make Knox
ville the Southern terminus, has gone
to that city to exercise his great influ
ence to secure the location of the road
iu the direction of Chattanooga, and
that city as its terminus. Every one
acquainted with his superior tact,
strong practical sense, energy, sleepless
vigil once, and indomitable will, will be
glad t) know this, and feel assured, in
advance, of the success of his efforts,
which, we dc not not all our people
most ardently hope for.

D feiculty AT Penfu:lo.—From a
private letter received by a gentleman
in this county, dated Penficld, Ga.,
May 19th, says the Eatonton Press &
Messenger, we learn the following facts
relative to a difficulty which occurred
between two students of Mercer Uni
versity, on the day previous:
Two of the boys—Thomas and Pin
son—liad a difficulty about a month
ago; and had dropped it, so even one
thought; but it was revived yesterday.
It seems that in the morning Pinson
had Ciijlcd Thomas a d-——d liar; T.
did hot resent it then, but after the
day’s recitation, walked up to P. and
told him he had to take back what he
had said, and commenced trailing him
with a stick. 1 P. being much the stout-,
er jerked the stick from TANARUS, where
upon T. stepped back six or eight feet,
drew a pistol and commenced firing;
about the same time P. drew Lis pistol
and began firing too. Each fired four
times within eight feet of each other.
Both were slightly wounded. *. * *
The pistol of each snapped twice w hen
they wore taking deliberate aim. * *
Tlio’ Faculty have taken no action,
though it is conjectured they will be
expelled/ There was considerable ex
citement on the streets, and the mys
tery is that lives weere not destroyed.

London, June 5. The temperate
spirit of Lord Clarendon in the Lon
don House of Lords last evening, on
the subject of the Alabama treaty,
elicited the following comments from
the London journals this morning:
The Times says, “for our own part,
considering the demands of America
and the ready concession of England,
we wonder the latter will get off so
well; the rejection of the treaty was
more a lucky chance than the result
of firmness of any body engaged in be
half of Great Britian.”
The Standard says, “that the nego
tiations for the Alabama treaty failed
because America never intended them
to succeed. If England now admits
that it is her duty to renew her efforts
for a peaceful settlement, it is without
hope. Our honest desire for such a
settlement will not be appreciated but
by a small section of the American
people. But in the meantime, until
the details of Minister Motley’s mis
sion arc known, we should fold our
hands and limit our compliments to him
as a. great historian.”
The Star says, “Thei Americans can
no longer doubt our willingness to do
them right, or determination to pre
serve our national character and cred
it.”

Tlse Trouble in Atlanta.
The Atlanta papers of yesterday
have but very little to say with regard
to the row in that pl ace on Tuesday*
night, and the subsequent action ta
ken by General Terry, the Comman
dant of this Department. From a gea
tLilian who arrived here from Atlanta
on yesterday we get further interest
ing particulars. It seems that E. B.
Pond, the proprietor of the National
Hotel, den. Terry, and Governor I\.
B. Brdfoek, were seated in front of the
hotel at about nine o’clock, conversing
together, when Gaines Chisolm, a
well known sporting man of Atlanta,
approached the party, followed by live
or six of his friends. In his hand
Chico bn carried a bucket, nearly con
cealed behind him, which was filled
with a very offensive compound.—
When within a few feet of Pond,
Chisolm halted and asked Pond “what
was trumps ?” Pond, not seeing the
fatal bucket, made some reply, upon
which the “sport” exclaimed, ‘Well,
it’s my play now,” and emptied the
contents of the bucket on Pond’s head
deluging him from head to foot, and
also splashing a liberal supply of the
oftensive material on tire persons of
the Commandant of the Department
and the Governor of the State of Geor
gia. As the astonished and besmear
ed officials started from their seats,
scarcely knowing what to think of the
unexpected shower-bath, one of Chis
olm’s friends fired a pistol in the ground
in order to draw a crowd aud make
the joke public property On hearing
the firing, a large crowd of course col
lected around the spot, and the sport
ing men vamoosed, not, however, until
Chisolm went to a stranger, who hap
pened to be sitting near the dignita
ries at the time of the shower, and had
come in for a sprinkling himself, and
begged his pardon for the uninten
tional insult. No apology was made
to either Bullock or Terry. Terry,
either frightened or acting under the
advice of Bullock, which is more prob
ably, on the instant ordered out the
military and put guards around the
hotel. On Wednesday our informant
states that troops were marching all
over the city,, the guards still retained
at the hotel, and a company of infan
try under an is in the railroad depot.
No arrest had been made up to yester
day morning. .If these reports are
true, Gen. Terry has acted in a very
silly manner, and wo have no doubt
but that by this time he feels very
mueli ashamed of his conduct.
Sugar Can be Made F kom Sorghum
and with Great Profit. When at
Louisville, Ky., last week, we visited
the works of the Southern Sorgo Com
pany 7 , for the purpose of examining the
process by which they manufacture
sugar from sorghum. We have for a
long time believed a process would be
discovered by which, under certain
conditions, sngar c< uld be made from
the sorghum as certainly as it is from
the tropical and West India cane. We
were most happily surprised on our vis
it to the above named woiks, to find
our ro soon realized, by discoveries
that have already been tested by ex
tensive experience in the successful
manufacture of sugar from the sor
ghum plant; and this, too, in quanti
ties that place it among the most prof
itable of all crops. The process by
which this is accomplished, has been
paten? ed, yet it is very simple, and
without the use of chemicals, or com
plicated machinery; the essential con
ditions being chiefly such manipula
tions as shall not destroy or injure
the granulating principles naturally
existing in the syrup, and the removal
of the gummy or glutinous matter
found in the sorghum molasses.
One of the most interesting features
of the whole process is the manner in
which the latter object is accomplished.
The viscidity in the syrup that makes
it stringy, and to some extent,
prevents granulation, is removed
by precipitation the ingredient,
cruising it in the form of a pulp, or co
agulum, which is easily removed. But
wo cannot go into a minute descrip
tion of the process—suffice it to say
that the entire machinery that one
would necessarily purchase, besides
the crushing mill costs only one hun
dred dollars. The disagreeable sor
ghum taste is remeved from both syr
up and sngar, and every gallon of syrup
yields from four to six pounds of beauti
ful sugai-—equal to the best New Or
leans brown, and four to six pounds
of syrup.
Mr. J. H. Seebolt, on whose premis
es the works are situated last year
raised forty acres of this cane. His
crop yielded an average of one hun
dred and fifty gallons of syrup to the
acre, and the syrup six pounds of su
gar to the gallon.
We have a sample of the sugar that
any person desiring to do so, can see
by calling at our office; also a pam
phlet containing the certificates of sev
eral agricultural committees and sci
entific gentlemen who have examined
this process of making sugar. The
price of the patent for individual rights,
we understand, is sloo.—Rome Cou

Augusta, June s.— The Elberton Ga
zette states that an insurrectionary plot
was disclosed by a negro, having for its
object the burning of the tewn of Lex
ington, county seat of Oglethorpe
county, and the massacre of the inhab
itants. The Sheriff and posse, in ar
resting the negroes implicated, were
resisted by one, whom they shot and
killed.
Motley and Bassett.— Everybody is
laughing at Motley’s speech in Eng
land about “same blood,” “same his
tory” “same language.” It is expect
ed that the negro Bassett will address
the Emperor of Hajti in a similar
strain.
The First to Recognize.— Late South
American advices announce that the
Congress of Peru have declared the
recognition of the Cubans as bellige
rents, and it improbable that Mexico
and others of the Spanish American
republics will follow.
