Since the commencement of the Beecher-Tilton trial, it has been as certained that Judge Fullerton has a farm near Centreville, Fairfax coun ty, Virginia, where he rusticates du ring the summer months. The negro who shot and killed the policeman in Nashville on the night of the 30th ult., was taken out on Sat urday last and thrown from the bridge over the Cumberland river. His body has not been recovered. Served him right. What a farce is the administration of justice. While thousands of big thieves flourish undisturbed, an un fortunate truckman of New York imprisonment last Yvednesuay tof stealing from an overcoat left in his charge the sum of two cents. On the Ist instant a terrible Torna do passed over the city of Columbia, S. C., about 4 p. m., lasting an hour and a half. The Presbyterian Church steeple was demolished, the market house and several other buildings unroofed. No persons killed, but several injured. Charlotte Cushman the celebrated actress, was saved from drowning fifty years ago, by a gentleman who is now an eminent merchant of Bos ton—a Mr. Cornelius Lovell. Miss Cushman, remembering the circum stance distinctly, did not find out un til lately w T ho was her preserver. There were said to be 33,000 pleas ure and health seekers in Florida du ring the past winter who left not less than three million dollars with the boarding house keepers. The pleas ure seekers, it is said, exceeded those looking for restoration to health. And now we hear that a company of cap italists intend to erect a hotel in Jack sonville, to cost near one and a half million of dollars. Civil Rights are coming home to the Northern people. A couple of negroes endeavored to purchase tick ets for orchestra chairs in one of the city theatres in New York, but they were refused to them. They have commenced a prosecution. This will be made a test case of the constitu tionalty of the bill, and we are glad that it has occurred in a norhtern city. The Federal navy is now used to facilitate the delights of picnic excur sions as planned by the grand women of Washington, the wives of the nobil ity. It costs taxpayers something more than twenty millions per an num to uphold the yachting estab lishment, and if the Democratic Congress appropriate a dollar for the maintenance of the brass-buttoned servants of the aristocracy, or of use less steamers, only built to minister to the delights of magnificent place holders, it will be morally perjured, and guilty of treason to its constitu ency. The niggers of Atlanta, got up a poster, signed by eleven names, having for its object the invitation of the darkeys of that city to a celebration at Ponce de Leon Springs, on Monday last, of the pass age of the Civil Rights hill. It an nounced “C. Walton, Chief Marshal of the day.” The owners of the springs andsurrounding grounds came out in a notice in the Constitution of Friday last, telling them they could do nothing of the kind—that the place was their private property, and without previous permission from them, no such celebration, nor in fact any other, should take place on their private property. Good for Messrs. John Armstead and J. C. Todd. AN EXTRADITION CASE. G. M. Hibhler, for forty years an active, laborious merchant in Dallas, was arrested some days ago on a re quisition sent hither by Governor Adelbert Ames, the negro-chosen chief magistrate of Mississippi. In 1862, while the war raged, Hibbler met a personal enemy on the high way. A fight ensued, and Hibbler killed the man who sought to take his life. Hibbler was then, as was his enemy, we belive, a Confederate soldier. Soon afterward he went with his command to Virginia, and rose steadily from the ranks to a colonel cy. He served through the war, re turned to Mississippi, remained there three or four years and came to Tex as. The “rebel” Mississippi Legisla ture had passed a general act of am nesty and pardon for all such off end ers, as Mr. Hibbler, conditioned that they enlist as Confederate soldiers. Under this statute, Col. Hibhler sup posed, and was ever advised, till now, that this amnesty act of the State constituted an end of the affair ; but Ames believes, no doubt, that an act of legislation designed to promote the strength of Confederate armies cannot be suffered to obviate the necessity of subjecting Col. Hibbler to needless annoyances ot a needless and most troublesome trial in a distant State. Col. Hibbler, wTiom we knew many years ago, as a worthy citizen of Nox ubee county, Mississippi, went to Austin, and sought his rights in the Supreme Court of the United States. We look with some anxiety for the verdict. THE ROSS CASE. The excitement about the stolen child has well nigh died out. Save an occasional paragraph, telling of the unfruitfulness of the search, noth ing is heard. The case has elicited a great deal of sympathy and feeling in many hearts, and is almost with out a parallel in modern annals'. What could have been the motive in thus bringing affliction upon a quiet fam ily by depriving it of its chief orna ment, and what disposition has been made of the child, may or may not remain forever a mystery. The kid nappers were not pecuniarily influ enced, else they would long since have striven for and obtained the large amounts offered for little Charlie’s recovery. Neither can the action be ascribed to personal motives, since from what we know, the family is eminently respectable and free of that skeleton that is oc casionally found in a dark closet, therefore, pure, unprovoked mali ciousness can be the only theory. Think of that father impelled to the brink of the grave, and even now grasping its forbidding border. A life fretted away looking expectant for the coming of his darling bade. And a mother ; can pen describe her anguish ? Has not the hand of mis fortune borne heavily upon them ? Yes, indeed, and they will continue toJimia-tDihe. J'istj an/ 1 Jut stored to them. An English View.— The Lon don Standard of the 9th has an edit orial article of more than a column devoted to the late civil war in this country, which begins with the fol lowing tribute to Confederate valor: “It is exactly ten years this morn ing since the surrender at Appomat tox Court House terminated the splended defence of Virginia against the most fearful odds with which, within the memory of man, soldierly courage and military genius have ever had tocoutend, and brought the existence of the Confederate States to a close. Never was a more glori ous national history crowded into a few years; never was a more bril liant record in the annals of war than that of the vanquished army.” The Standard then refers to the dis position for reconciliation which pre vailed in both armies at the close of the war, and the malign political influences which succeeded and which have sown seeds of bitterness which it apprehends will not soon be eradi cated. At the same time it regards conservative triumphs at late elec tions in the United States as indica tive of the return of a happier era. The wholesale swindling of colored people revealed by the investigation of the affairs of the defunct Freed man’s Bank, at Washington, has alienated the affections of many of that class from the Republican party, and the managers of that tottering concern are becoming extremely so licitious to regain the ground they have lost. To do this the adminis tration has, according to a Washing ton special to the Chicago Times , hit upon an expedient rather more in genious than honest. It is proposed to buy the bank building, on the pretense that it is needed for depart ment purposes, for an amount suf ficient to cover the accounts of the defrauded depositors. It h believed that this would restore the confidence of the Congo voters in the Republi can party as their saviors and natur al and only protectors. “Somebody” has favored us with a marked copy of the last Gainesville Eagle. It contains just 60 articles inimical to Ben Hill. Query—was not the Eagle a Hill advocate until after Estes (a brother, we suppose of M. V. Estes of that paper) was nominated by the rump convention? From an article we read in some ex change, we infer that until his ow n nomination Estes himself was infavor of Hill. To the individual who sent us that paper we will just state that he might have saved his two cents which he paid as postage on that sheet, as we are emphatically Hill men. We are glad to see that Mr. Mann and young Spencer, the wounded of Atlanta, are improving. Spencer has so far recovered that young Bard has been released from prison on a bond 0f55,000. A true bill has been found against Magill for shooting Mr. Mann. California Raisins.— We find the following item of the Grocers’ As sociation of New York in the Bulle tin of that city. Mr. Spafford, of Ban Francisco, presented a box of California raisins to the meeting. They were critical ly examined and pronounced supe rior to the imported Malagas, a box of which was emptied on the table and the two specimens shown side by side. The importance of this item will be better understood when we con sider the fact that more than one half of the raisins exported from Eu rope are sent to this country. The ordinary American grapes cannot be converted into raisins, and if the Cal ifornia grape is really as excellent as stated above, it will be another and a most important source of revenue to that wonderfully productive State. Relative to Bard’s threat to estab lish a Grant paper in Atlanta,, For ney’s Washington (Bard) Chronicle says : “We are beginning to receive papers from the South with an an nouncement marked in the usual style of Postmaster Sam. Bard, of At lanta, that he is going to start a dai ly paper at Atlanta for the next Pres idential campaign and that this re doubted postmaster is going to make it hot and lively for the enemies of President Grant. The President has had to stand a good many things, and he may be able to survive this attack of the postmaster, but the peo ple of Atlanta have our sympathies. They have now a couple of good en terprising dailies, and to have a pa per started to battie for the next Pres dential contest, and edited by Bard, just as hot weather commences, is an affliction they ought to be spared. It does not make the matter any bet ter that nobody believes it will ever be isued. This thing of being threat ened with an impending calamity is of itself too much.” Some paper doubts or denies that when an appeal was made to Chicago for bread for the starving people of Northern Mississippi, then recently desolated by armies, the Chamber of Commerce or Board of Trade propos ed to send arsenic instead of flour. The organization was broken up by the discussion, and, if we were not misinformed the difficulty was never adjusted, and there are yet two boards —one Radical and the other Demo cratic. We only know that these facts, substantantially, were publish ed at the time in 1865—6, and there fore our antipathy to Chicago. The morals of the place are deemed sim ply execrable, whether deservedly so or not let the Chicago Times tell. An unpleasantness has sprung up between the Governors of Georgia and Tennessee. It seems that Gov. Porter, of Tennessee, made a requisi tion upon Gov. Smith, for one A. E. Knight which Gov. S. for some rea son refused to honor. Now a requisi tion has been made by Gov. Smith upon the Governor of Tennessee who says he will honor no requisition from Georgia, until his requisition for Knight is complied with. Gov. Smith, upon being Wiffi Gov. Porters requisition, says lie could not recognize the agent who bore it, because said agent attempled to blackmail the prisoner. How this wiil end, is as yet conjecture. The Memphis Appeal says: The significance of the fact may not have occurred to many, but Attorney General Williams has not been pop ular at the Executive Mansion since he expressed surprise at President Grant’s message paving the way for forcing Brooks on Arkansas as Gov ernor. That message was too strong for even Williams’ iron-plated stom ach, and soon afterward he was seiz ed with a “desire” to resume the practice of his profession. Perhaps Grant repeated to him the little ob servation once made by Lincoln to Montgomery Blair; “Your time has come.” A Nice Young Woman.— The Brooklyn Argus publishes thefollow ing letter received by a Brooklyn girl from a young friend residing in the rural districts: My Dear Lucy —l think I won’t come to Brooklyn this spring. I un derstand there is something going on there that hadn’t ought to. Papa won’t let any papers come into the house, so I don’t know what it is: but I see the parson at the post office every morning reading his mail and laughing fit to kill himself, and I think it must be something awful wicked. Yours, lovingly, Caroline. The manufacture of all alligator leather has now b come an impor tant branch of industry. The skins come chiefly from Florida and Lou isiana, and the hunting and skin ning of the animals for their hides is extensively pursued. About 20,000 skins are tanned every year. They are manufactured in various parts of the United States, and a number is exported to England and France. The French, owing to their superior methods of tanning, are formidable competitors. We are glad to see the universal condemnation, on the part of the Southern Press of the order of the pro prietors of the Pullman Sleeping cars —to admit negroes on an equality with white people. What has become of the Southern Sleeping Car Com pany, which was organized in Atlan ta some time ago? Friend Wrenn, now is the propitious time to put the affairs of that company in motion. We should be glad to learn that the Pullman cars were entirely deserted by white travelers. The Independent Order of Odd Fellows, ever on the alert to allevi ate the sufferings and aid their breth ren in adversity, is about to take measures for the organization of an Old Man’s Home. This new propo sition will be in accordance with the spirit of the age, and no doubt will be the means of smoothing the down ward path of life to many an ancient brother. MXLTUM IN PARVO.

CA SKY'S PROPOSITION. A telegram from Washington : “Collector Casey, who is still in the city, says the only way the President can carry out the Louisiana compro mise, in ousting the members of the Legislature wrongfully seated, will be to use persuasive means. There is no way of forcing them out. He thinks that the only practicable way is to give the members some appoint ment, upon the condition that they will go out. Then there is bound to be a row on the part of the colored men, who will set up a mad-dog cry that their people are selling out.” How it runs in the family ! Grant’s sovereign remedy for sore-shinned politicians, whom the people have booted out the door is to give each an office in which he may heal his bleeding wounds and line his hungry pockets. And now comes congenial Casey, the dearly beloved and closely stuek-to Presidential brother-in-law and he recommends the same medi cine for a meaner form of the same disease. The members alluded to have no more right to sit in the Lou isiana Legislature than they have to seats in the British Parliament. So two investigating committees have decided, and so the Louisiana Radi cals have at last agreed to acknow ledge. Yet Casey recommends that in order to make the expulsion of these confessed frauds easy and agreeable to them and their colored Constituents, they shall bo promised Federal appointments as the price of cheerful acquiesenee in tne inevita ble. Comments are useless. We sim ply hold up the proposition and the proposer to the affectionate gaze of an admiring people.— St. Louis Re publican. TOE CIVIL EIGHTS IIILL. Thu Washington Chronicle is much exercised at the refusal of the South ern people to patronize the Pullman cars after they nave been opened to negroes, and calls for more stringent punishment than is provided for in the Civil Rights bill. The punishment will come after a while, but not in the direction the Chronicle looks for. Very soon Mr. Pullman will see his customers con fined entirely to blacks, and this re duction will starve him out. If it does not, the Southern railroad com panies will soon get tired of hauling heavy carriages that do not carry passengers enough to compensate them for their toil. The white peo ple might, on a pinch, put up with nearly all the social disagreeabilities of the Civil Rights requirements, but the Pullman company ought to have sense euough to know that it is not possible to expect Southern ladies to occupy the sleeping cars on railroads Will’ Abf q^^-ace^andSouthem men owned by a company that excludes their wives and daughters from the privilege of their use.— Mob is Regis ter. The Sunny South says : As to your question concerning the “national copying company for pictures and photographs, we cannot give you a satisfactory reply.

In other words pat ronize your home artists, and be on safe side. The report of Donalson beingkill ed by the fall from his balloon, is untrue.

After accepting the com promise preferred,—agreeing to leave the Legislature as they found it — they have ousted four Radicals, and ha ve seated four Democrats. A ref erence to one of the committee who enginered the compromise, brought the answer that the terms of it were violated. There is a strong possibil ity of events again culminating in a row. Generals Colson and Loring now in the service of the Khedive of Egypt, have embraced the Mahom medan faith. Loring gets SSOO a month and lives like an Egyptian magnate. His establishment includes a very respectable harem without which he would he regarded over there as a nobody. Now that Butler is out of politics, the papers might afford to let him severely alone. But they will not, and the result may be that he will suddenly turn up again, like a jack in the box. Recently they have been twitting Bold Ben on his not receiving any invitation to either Concord or Lexington, and now he is spoken of as the possible successor of Attorney-General Williams, who handed in his resignation Thursday. A man in Baltimore called on a grave digger the other day to have his wife’s grave sodded. He was an extremely penurious man, and hig gled a long time over the price of the sodding. Suddenly he became mute while his eyes were fixed on a neigh boring tombstone. His daughter and the grave digger stood back in respect for the old gentleman, in whose mind they supposed the sight of that tablet had called up the memory of a dear departed friend, for grief was depict ed in his countenance, and he was visibly agitated. At length the deep emotion that swelled his bosom found vent in this pathetic outburst, “My G—d! when did that man die?
