Devoted to Polities, News oi the The * arm Interest*, Home Matters, a.al Choice Miscellany. VOL. X. THE EA GEE. Friday Morning, December 29, 1876. We regret to learn that a large por tion of Dahlonega was destroyed by fire on Monday night. We have not been able to obtain particulars. It is rumored that Chamberlain, of South Carolina, has submitted to the Democrats a proposition for a com promise on the basis of a division of offices ; .Since last Saturday we have been completely ice-locked in this vicinity, j Sleet and snow have bean falling at j intervals for the last five days, and at the time we write, (Thursday after j noon,) there are no indications of a | let up or of a thaw. We have now had one month of honest wintry ! weather. The Supreme Court of Florida pass ! 6< l an order on Saturday, requiring the ' canvassing board of that State to re j canvass the votes cast in the late elec | tion from the face of the returns.— ! This was to have been done Wednes day; but instructions were received from Zach Chandler or one of his sub ordinates at Washington, directing the board to disregard the order of the Court. This looks like revolution. There is but little change in the political situation since our last issue. Both Houses of Congress have recess ed for the holidays, and hence we have nothing from headquarters except the speculations of politicians and news paper reporters as to the drift of events. When Congress meets and the com mittees in the disputed States make their reports, matters will begin to tako shape; but until that time all ir, mere speculation. President Grant, who was inter viewed a few days ago, expressed his desire to have a fair count in the con tested States, and his belief that the committees now at work in those States woald accomplish much toward the solution of the existing political difficulties. He stated that it was de s'rable to establish the actual fact of the election of either Tilden or Hajes, for neither of them would feel satis fied if any doubt remained of his election, because in such a case his position as President would not com mand the general support required for that station. Very well said. We respectfully ask all persons in debted to us to call and settle by the first of January, or their notes and ac counts will be put into a lawyers hands for collection. We mean business. Webb & Oliver.
