, Gwinnett Herald. I A WHENCE?ItiLK, GA. Wednesday, April 14, 187.*>. The infanticide mania is raging in Atlanta. The city of Cincitmatti lias gone Democratic by 5,358 maj rity. Atlanta has received during the cotton season 60,290 bales against 51,149 last year.— Constitution. *#«<>* &m Gov. Smith has ordered the sale of the Macon and Brunswick Kail road. Sale to take place in June. Cholera is prevailing to an alarm ing extent among the hogs in llall county. Small-pox has again made its appearance along the line of Clark and Ogleihrope counties. An !y Johnson declines canvass ing Ohio and Pennsylvania. He proposes in the future to be heard ouly from his place in the Senate. - —• -Bil —- General John 11. Gordon has been invited to deliver the memo via' oration in Covingtoiff on the 20th inst. Col. Jefferson Davis and Capt. Ulysses S. GraDt are invited to a res union of tlie officers of t!>e Mexican \var,ir. Austin, Texas, on the Bth of May. The Commissioner ot Agriculture ' wants two or tluee correspondents in every county in tlie State to re port ilie condition of crops to Lis department during the year. Judge Erokine has decided that tlie State courts cannot try and con- , viei a party f>r perjury who com mitted the offence in the courts of, the United Statft that tlie State ; c »urts have no jurisdiction. What i.ex ? —- - CoNNEcncuiT Euccrtoy.—The i Democrats have swept the State. , 'J he vote for Governor stood as ful-! lows: Ingereoll, (Deni) 53,784; Green.. (Rad.) 44,250. The Dem ocrats elect three Congiessmen out of four and have a decided majority i i the Legislature. — • - The Comptroller-General has or tiered the postponement of the sale of unrelurned wild land to the lstb of May. All persons owning wild 1 lands had better look after tlie ad ; vertisement of lots un re turned. After that time executions will be issued and all land unreturned sold to pay the tax. *9 ♦ • There was a fearful tornado in Illinois and Atkansas on the 9th inst. A church in which thirty or 1 • >r*y young ladies and gentlemen were rehearsing was demolished. Uilty persons wore taken out, one •lead, and the others severely in jured. I lie piosp.et of hostilities will) Mexico frightened oil' the S natorial excursion party. Alter arriving at Orleans, they concluded it was more healthy to sail around the Southern coast to Savannah than to trust their precious lives to the ten der mercy of Mexican Banditti.— Gov. Brown, Tom. Scott, and some ol the other pleasure seekers were li it U> In; disappointed, and they continued their journey. — m Rev. Lovick Pierce has celehrated his ninetv*first birth day. There whs a family re-union with forty guests, among them twenty-one great grand-children. He closes a letter describing this celebration as follows; “I am trying to leave the question of living or dying entirely with my heavenly Father; and yet I would have all rny brethren join me in the prayer that if, according to tile w ill of God, my niuety-second Llrilt'day ‘may be spent in heaven.” Dr. Sam Paid is no longer Post Muster in Atlanta. He did not sup port the Radical candidate for Con* gi ess at the last election is the causa of his fall. The* man who holds an office under Grant must walk circumspect. That is, lie must have no opinions of his own. “Hon est” Pen Conley succeeded him, it is said that the Doctor will establish a Radical paper in Allan* ta immediately—of course he will. V' Irenever lie gets out of a job he rUrt* a paper and runs that until he can pri»p some unfortunate of fice-holder out of his place. It is considered fair play in the Radical rank* for one man to shinny another out of hi* biead and butter. Tlic Gainesville Convention. A Democratic convention of the 9th Congressional distii.t assembles to-day (Wednesday) in Gainesville, to nominate a candidate for Con gress to fiil the vacancy caused by I ti e death of lion. Garnett McMil lan. Ihe candidates have been very ; industrious in looking after their in j terest, but the race seems to be nar rowed down to two. Col. Welborn, ! of Union, will probably get the vote of two or three counties, and Col. Dorsey, the vote of Ilall; bnt„as | their strength will not justify their friends in keeping their names long before the convention, it is supposed that they will be with- I drawn alter a few ballots', until it ran be seen whether either of the I prominent gentlemen can be nomi- ; I nated. . It is understood that the race is j between Hon. B. 11. Hill and Col. Bell, the present Representative, j Both of these gentlemen have been ; indiistiiously laboring in their own interest, and both seem to be ran- ! guine.as to the result. Somebody will be badly disappointed, but it is J impossible to form anything like a j conect conclusion until tire conven tion meets. The masses of the party seem to feel but little interest in the race, but will support the nominee IL is a difficult matter to stir up any ec- j thusiasm except among the politi cians at tliis season of the year. A j number of counties have instructed their delegates, and, as a matter of course, these delegates are honorably j loun 1 to voteaccoiding to instruction long as the candidate whom they are instructeJ to support is in the race. We do not believe either Bell or' Hill will be ab!e*to obtain a two ! thirds vote, ui.le-s there is a great change. If the majority rule is adopt j ed, we fear it will breed trouble in j the party, as it is well understood j that Col. Price is already in the field as an independent, Vv e give below the complexion of | the convention as near as we can ar rive at it from reports: FOR HILL.. FOR BELL.

Uuion 3 Grimer 3 Fannin ... 3 Towns 3 9 Air-Line Railroad—Prospect of a Lively Fight. It will be remembers I that dur ing last fall the holders of bonds of the Air-Line Railroad applied for the appointment ol a Receiver to take charge of the road. Col, 1,. ]’. Grant was appointed by Judge .Hopkins and immediately took pos [ session of the road. Everythino* lias ¥ O been running on smoothly until last week, when Col. A, T. Akeiman, as the atitorney of Skepwoth Wilmer and Auguste Richard, who were complainants in tli© original bill,ap plied to Judge Erskine for an at tachment for contempt against Col. Grant, B. Y. Sage and T. S. Garner He charges that although one Fisk had been appointed Receiver by the United States Court, that Grant,who was a dilector,and Sage and Garner are still managing and controlling the road in contempt cf the order o* the Federal court. Judge Erskine has ordered Grant, Sage and Garner to show cause,on 1 lie 12th of May next, why they should not be punished tor contempt. It is jinderstood that Justice Bradley, of the Supremo court of the United States, will be in Atlanta at that time, and the case is expected to be beaid by him. There is food for thought in this paragraph from the Boston Herald: “Those people who think it impos sible lor President Grant to get a nomination for a third term have not looked at the figures. There will tie 369 votes in tlie Convention. Ol these the Iff Southern States will have 138. Grant could get all these to day ami 48 more would give him a majority. He would undoubtedly be the strongest candi dale on the first ballot were the Convention to be held next week.” Forsyth Court. We spent a few days very pleas antly at Forsyth • ourt last week. We do not remember ever to hare seen as few people attending Court in that county. There was a gener !al complaint among the farmers that they were behind time with their crops, and the importance of keeping the plows moving was j fully recognized. Although Court did npt adjourn until the last of the week, there w re but lew cas >s of importance for trial. A considerable portion lof the time was devoted to the criminal docket. Most of the*casgs were tor min >r offenses ali i the kind hearted defendants very liber ally plead guilty in most cases. The negroes of tb it county seem deter mine, d to have equal privileges be fore the law, and there were a num ber of the nation’s wards who had little difficulties with the State io settle. The Solicitor General, C. 1). Phillips, is a genial, pleasant m in, w ho understands how to min. gle fuu with duly and keeps even the defendant, who is pleading guil ly, in a good humor. Judge Knight does not inflict as heavy punishments generally as is duye on .this side of the river, | but. occasionally he blisters a crimi nal with the full power of the Court. Tiie case of Martin Dobbs at tracted considerable interest. He was charged with contempt of Couit. The offense charged was running •ff the witnesses of the State in a criminal ease. Alter a very lull investigation the Judge fined him one bundled dollars. We noticed in attendance upon the Court in addition to tiie local bar, Geo. N. Lester, of Marietta; Solicitor Geoei„al Pnillips, Col. Dor sey, of Gainesville; T. 1.. Lewis and B. F. Roberts, of Alpharetta; Col, Hutching, ot Lawrenceville, and Mr. Looper, of Dawsonville. Gumming is a lively little town tiir the interior, and there is a con siderable spirit of improvement manifested. The population has been lately increased by the acces sion ot Mr. Surnir.eronr and E. W. Lewis, both gentlemen of high standing and considerable capital. The town authorities have recently organized their board of Commiss ii ne's, elected a Mayor and Mar shall, and are maintaining good or l iter and sibiiety in tile village. We uaders'anl that Prof. Balleuger lias a fine school, and we see noth ing to prevent the town Irom pros pering. if they had a haft doz-n w igon shops they might consider themselves on the high road to prosperity. We found their courteous and ae CominmliUug Ordinary up to his elbows in business, us he usually is, but understand that he finds time between courts to superintend the woiking of the public streets The linn of McAfee Sc Kellogg have closed their business, and their old stand is now occupied by Mr. Simms. Mr. Leroy Edmonson, J. W, James, J. M. McAfee and others, seem to he doing a good mercantile business. Mr. John Cain, JY., was very sick during Court, and his recovery was considered very doubtful. \Ye understand that the mail contract from Cumming to Duluth was lot to Mr. Hump Smith, o! Alpharetta. \N e intended to accept the polite invitation of Judge Clements to visit the Clarion office while there, but we happened to see Mr. Moiris walking backward and forward in trout of his office his coat off his sleeves rolled up to his elbows, and a lour pound “billy” in bis hand, which he would occasionally change over to the other hand in order to spit in it, and we consider ed that “prudence was the better pift of valor” and concluded to shinny on our own side. We did not know whether lie was after Cartiucll, of the Gainesville Demo crat, Acton, of the Constitution, or our scalp. We tried to induce Ac ton to accompany ns on the visit, knowing that we could safely fortify behind him, and in the event it became necessary to fall buck wo could do so in good order by the lime tho colonel got stal led. We tender our thanks to our friends in that county for the inter est *t a ken in our paper. Capt. Douglas, Judge Willingham and Idr. Riden are entitled to pur special thanks. o To lead all competitors is the aim of the proprietors oi’ the Wilson Shuttle Sewing Machine, it is founded on the very best principles known to the Sew ing machine science, and improvements, ;n advance of all other sewing machines, are being udopted constantly.

King Alfonso is said to be very Much bored by the presence of his sister, the Countess Infanta of Girgcnti, who was sent to Madrid by queen Isabella to preside at Alpliouso’s royal residence. The countess is a youngwidow, twenty three years of age, and in the event of Alfonso’s assassination or natu ral “taking off’' would succeed to i lie tli rone under the repeal of the Salic law. Good advice to the South is given in tlu; following paragraph from the St Louis Republican (Indepen dent): “Let the Southern people leave the Administration and the Republican party to the angry North, with nothing to divert or distract in the reckoning; lei them remain silent and passive while' the reckoning geos on—and the next Presidential election will be to the Republican party simply a day of judgment.” Gen. Spinner, in a letter declining the proposal of some of his friends to luise by subscription a handsome addition to his very modest fortune, says; ‘ I have but three children to provide for. Having always be lieved that SIO,OOO left to a child is as well as if not better than a much larger sum, I have, therefore, never desired to be rich, cr to leave to each of toy heirs more than that amount of money. Unless again overtaken by misfortune,* through the misconduct of others, I am now able to do that. This, with an holi est reputation, will be a legacy that should satisfy my children.” An Important Decision—The publishers of the Wyandotte Ilerald recently wiote to tiie First Assistant Postmaster General on the sul j et of residents of ode comity receiv ing their county papers free of pos tage, received the billowing reply; Post Office lUpaktmem, ) Appointment Office. > Washington,!).
