At the time of writing, Friday morning, the managers are counting the votes* with closed doors, and hence we cannot say how Coweta has gone. The impression is that the contest will be very dose. If we receive any reliable news before going to press our readers shall be furnished with it. About 2,200 votes polled. Registered voters about 3,000. Ax Impartial Officer.—It affords us pleas ure to record our testimony in favor of the impartial conduct of Lieut. Ames, of the 16th U. 8. Infantry, who was sent to Newnan by Gen. Meade to keep order during the election days. The whites and blacks were both grati fied with his management—for the Lieutenant afforded ample protection to all class of voters, and did not use the influence of his position in favor of either party. Exactly Right.—The best of order was pre served during the election days. But during the three first days and early portion of the fourth and last, a black negro, named John Pinson, had been very officious, and had ren dered himself obnoxious to all the whites and many blacks by his impertinence and insulting language to such blacks as voted the Conser vative ticket So about 10 o’clock Thursday morning he got into an altercation with Obe (the barber) and also got a genteel caning.— Both parties were arrested, carried before the Mayor and required to give bond for their ap pearance before him Friday morning. Obe could have given a $50,000 bond, but John had Ro friends and consequently was conducted to prison. Chicago, April 10.—The estimates of the number of persons on the Sea Bird still differ. As no lists were kept at the different points, the names will probably not be known for some time. The total number on board, including passengers and crew, is variously stated at from fifty to one hundred. The total number of known survivors is four : Albert Cham berlin and Kdwin Ilennebery, of Sheboy gan Fall ; H. L. Comstock, of Rome, New York, and James Leonard, of Manitowoc. A few others may survive, but there is very little reason to expect it. Mr. Chamberlain says: “When we were off, about as near as I can reckon, eight miles southeast of Waukegan, I was awakened from a sound sleep by an indistinct rumbling noise. When 1 open ed the stateroom door [ found everything in the direst confusion. Men, women and children, many of them with scarcely any clothing on them, rushed toward the forward opening; all sorts of fearful cries saluted my ears; the screams of terrified women rushing past en dishabille : cries of children, heavy imprecations and shouts of men joined with the crackling of the flames, the noise of the engine and roar of the wind and water altogether com bined to form such a scene of confusion as I never had expected to be a witness to in this world.” “ Looking round I perceived that the afterpart of the cabin was filled with smoke, and noticed now and again quick, angry forks of flames shooting through it. The flames made such extraordinary headway that it did not seem to me five minutes’ time before the whole hurricane deck was afire. The lower decks were as yet untouched. “ Upon reaching the forward deck I helped the second mate to tear away as much as we could of it in order to stop the progress of the flames toward the bow, At this time it was quite broad daylight, and I should judge between six and seven o’clock There was a very heavy sea, and it seemed to be increasing in volume. The crowd was huddled to gether near the forward part of the how. I made my way through the crowd as far to the forward part of the bow as possi ble. Many had jumped overboard before this time into the water, and must have ! soon perished from cold, j “ As scon as the cry of fire was raised, and it was found to be making such rapid 1 headway, there was a simultaneous cry from many “ Head the boat for shore.” In carrying out this order, the helmsman, through the excitement of the occasion, or because the machinery of the wheels : had already been damaged by the fire, I put the rudder hard apart, and thus kept : the vessel turning round; but she had j hardly made more than one circuit when the engines stopped working, and by this time the hurricane and upper deck had completely burned. “ About half an hour after I had left the state room there was not more than ten men remaining on the wreck. By this time I had worked my way to the most forward part of the vessel. The men be low me who were holding on to the sides of the bow, were dropping off one alter another, overcome by either heat or cold. During all this time there were dead bodies floating around the vessel, aud many live persons could be seen battling with the waves and desperately clinging to chairs and pieces of the wreck. At this time we were about eight miles from the land ; the wind was blowing from the east and we floated slowly toward the shore. “ About three quarters of an hour af terward I had reached the forward deck, I was surprised on looking around to find but one other than myself upon the wreck. This man soon afterward let go and was drowned.” Mr. Chamberlain was rescued by a boat from the steamer Cornelia. He had lash ed himself to the bowsprit, and the boat coming underneath him, he severed the rope with a knife, and dropped into the boat. From the best evidence which Captain Goodrich, owner of the Sea Bird, has been able to obtain, no effort was made to stop the engine until circumstances prevented its further motion. The re sult was that the helm having been put apart, the boat began to desciibe circles of nearly a mile in diameter. It is the impression of the United States Inspector in this city that if the engine of the Sea Bird bad been stopped on the first alarm of fire, the small boats could have been got out and tke Cornelia allowed to couie alongside. It is his in tention to give orders to all engineers, that in case of fire upon boats the engines shall be stopped immediately, thereby stopping, to a great extent, the draft that arises from the speed of the vessel. A very remarkable coincidence is the fact that only an hour or two before the steamer Sea Bird was destroyed on Lake Michigan, the schooner Sea Bird was wrecked and sunk in twenty feet of water on Lake Erie. The Great Impeachment Fizzle. There never was such a failure. There never was such a stale, fiat, and unprofit able conclusion to anything that so thund ered and threatened in the prologue.— Impeachment is the old case of forty crows put into the pompous character of a great political process. Forty crows, as we are all aware, would hardly cover the number, even as stated by those most moderate in speech. Some said the flight darkened the heavens, and at the last it was barely possible to prove the presence of one solitary little blackbird. So the Nation that was assuicd its liberties and peace were in danger from the countless and heinous crimes of the Executive finds, when it comes to evidence in court, that the prosecution can not prove enough to send a juvenile delinquent to the House of Detention for two days. Six. days have now been taken up by the prosecution, and what has been shown ? On Monday we had the windy and grandiloquent opening of Butler. Since that it has been proven that the President “ issued an order ” for the removal of Stanton— not that he had removed him or had not the right to remove him or issue the or der; the attempt has been made to prove that the President conspired with soldiers to oppose the laws, and this has resulted in clearly proving that he did not so con spire. And now the prosecution is prov ing that the President said in his public speeches, proposing to trench upon that most sacred right—absolute freedom in the expression of opinion. What is prov ed here that can authorize the removing a man from an office in which he was placed by the will of the people? And what is the whole result so far ? Only that a grand occasion has been given for Butler to strut and fret and plume him self in the public eye. Only a chance for this vaporer to show to the world that there is no sphere of human endeavor in which he is not equally incapable. He was a general a little while ago, and he made more noise in dispatches and orders and proclamations than all the other gen erals in the country together. lie was the most mighty of all the heroes. But the sum of his achievements in the field is included in the names of Big Bethel, Bermuda Hundreds, and Fort Fisher.— He “ saved his men ” and his bacon ; and he never was within teu miles of a battle that it did not prove a disaster. Peace came, and, not shamed into obscurity by his failures, the mighty man returns to politics and law. He leads the great case of his party. He makes the same tre mendous threats as ever, and as before he dwiudles into pitiful insignificance when brought to a practical test. Fortunately, there was a way of pushing such leaders aside in war. Let us hope that the radi cals may not for a while learn that wis dom.—N. Y. Herald. Gen. Butler caught a Tartar yeste rday, in the person of Col. Wallace of the Twelth Infantry. In reply to a question as to what business he had with Col. Moore on the night of February 22d, Wallace replied that Col. Moore sent for him to say that his nomination for brevet promotion had been set aside by the Sen- : ate. Butler said that he had testified bc- • fore the committee that Moore told him he was rejected by the Senate, and he wished to know why he had changed the j expression now and used the phrase “ set aside.” W allace, with an immovable j countenance, looked for a moment stern- ■ ly at Butler, and then, in a clear, ringing i respouse, said he was at perfect liberty to use whatever phraseology he pleased.— ; The General subsided. Raisins and Currants. The numerous varieties of crapes which produce the various wines of commerce are the effects simply of different degrees of climate and soil. Thus we find that different districts produce fruit more or less valued for the abundance or richness of their juice. The small r berries are generally the most esteemed for this pur pose. In some districts, however, the produce is quite unfit for wiue making, and the fruits are then dried, and form the raisins of our shops. All raisins, then, whether they be Muscatels, Valen cias, or whatever variety are, in reality, true grapes, differing from the wine grapes oely in size, or the absence of the juicy principle which, to a considerable extent, develops into flesh or pulp The best rai sins are grown on the Spanish shore of the Mediterranean, the climate about Valencia and Malaga apparently suiting them better than anywhere else. But raisins are also extensively cultivated in the lower parts of Greece, as well as in other paits of the Continent. The Mus catel is the finest kind of raisins imported. The preparation, or drying, upon which the value of the fruit, to a great extent, depends, is, in its case, conducted differ ently from that of the common kinds.— Usually the grapes are gathered in bunches when fully ripe, and hung up or spread out to dry. These are afterwards placed in vessels full of holes, and dipped in a lie made of wood ashes and vanilla, with the addition of a little salt and oil. This brings the saccharine juice to the surface, and causes the dark brown color as well as the crystallization of sugar which is so characteristic of the cheaper fruit. The best varieties are simply dried in the sun before removal from the tree. The fruit is carefully watched, and when at the proper stage of ripeness the stalks of the bunches are partly cut through and allowed to hang till dry. Amongst the many varieties of raisins known in commerce arc Valencias, Denias and Lex- ias from Spain, and Malagas from Malaga, in Granada. All these varieties of fruit are import ed into this country in what are commer cially called boxes of half a hundred weight gross. The small light colored raisins known as Sultanas we receive from Smyrna, and, as everybody knows, these are devoid of stones or more properly seeds. This seedless form has been brought about by a higher state of culti vation, and usually fetches a higher price in the market. A common cheap fruit is also imported from Smyrna, quite’the re verse of the little Sultana, being of a very dark color, and having very large seeds. The little black fruits, which in a culina ry sense are of so much value, and which common usage and the corruption of a word has taught us all to call currants, are likewise a small, seedless variety of grape. The word currant is derived from Corinth, which was originally the princi pal place of its cultivation. If the an cient Corinth«o longer supplies us with the bulk of this useful fruit, the whole of our imports are still brought from the nu merous islands of the Archipelago and the neighboring shores of Asia Minor.— Good H’onfs.

A Conscientious Widow.—A poor man on his death-bed, made his will — He called his wife to him, and told her of the provisions he had made. “ I have left,” said he, “ my horse to my parents; sell it and hand over the money you receive. I leave you my dog ; take good care of him, and he will serve you faithfully.” The wife promised to obey, anil in due time set out for the neighboring market, with the horse and the dog. “ How much do you want for your horse?” inquired a farmer. “ I cannot sell the ho r se alone, but you may have both at a reasonable rate. Give me a hundred dollars for the dog and one dollar for the horse ” The farmer laughed, hut as the terms were low, he willingly accepted them.— Then the worthy woman gave the hus band’s parmts the dollar received for the horse, and kept the hundred dollars for herself.

Thomas D’Abct McGee.—Mr. McGee was a native of Ireland, and had been identified with the organization known as the “ Young Ireland Party.” With the failure of that movement, he, as well as many of bis compatriots, came to this country. For a time he was engaged in journalism in New York, but afterwards removing to Canada, he became a good and loyal subject of the Crown, and has since filled many positions of honor and trust. At the time of the union of the provinces, he was at the head of the Agricultural Bureau of Canada. Mr. McGee was a fine classical schol ar, a graceful and versatile writer. His most pretentious literary work was a “History of Ireland,” published about three years ago. As an orator, Mr. McGee had few superiors, if any, in the Dominion. With all the natural eloquence of the Irish nature, his rare classical attainments gave him an advantage over many of his contemporaries: and few public men had a stronger hold epon the sympathies of the people. Mr. McGee’s nationality was evi dent at a glance; nor was he of the finer clay. Meeting him in a crowd, you might have taken him for a drayman or a brick-layer. This supposition was favored by his usually care less dress. Like Greeley, he was partial to a white hat, but it was generally much bruised and battered, as if it had been in contact with a score of shillalahs at an Irish fair. Mr. Mc Gee was of a convivial nature, and a rare boon companion. None were more ready than he with a toast, a song or a jest. Less than a year ago he joined a temperance society, after ward leaving it for political reasons, bnt still remaining true to his pledge. He was a bitter opponent of Fenianism. For this reason it is supposed he was assassinated. A Blue Horse.—The “Blue Horse,” now on exhibition in London, is fourteen ; and a half hands high, and has no trace : of hair or roots of hair on any parts of its i body; its skin is smooth and delicate feeling to the touch like india-rubber, and very warm, and forms in curious wrinkles when the animal moves. It is of a purplish gray color over the greater part of the body; its face is buff, and there is a large patch of the same color over half the back, with numerous blot ches ; the tail resembles that of a pig. — At a distance it looks as if formed of some variety of rare marble: It was obtained by Mr. Lashmar, a merchant, in 1860, on the Gaboon river, from a herd of quag- gas, and sent to the Cape. It was brought over to England in 1863, broken in at Astlcy’s, and afterwards ridden three parts of a season with Lord Stanford’s hounds. It has been examined by Prof. Spooner, of the Veterinary college, who pronounced it to be eight years old, and who also delivered a lecture ou it to his I pupils. It does well in harness, but be ing entirely naked, requires warm cloth ing. It is symmetrically formed. When first captured it was blue all over, with the exception of one foot: but the blue color gradually diminished after it was brought to England, and the owner thinks in time it will lose it entirely. He wash es it daily in cold water, which, he says, is necessary to keep it in health. Exti’a Special JYotiee, Beware of Counterfeits!

NEW ARRANGEMENT AND- J The Galena Gazette has the following joke: An attendant upon one of our churches met a member of Grace Church the other day, and rallied him on his ab stinence from amusements during Lent. He continued, “ I believe your church keeps Lent.” “ Yes,” was the reply, “ and l believe your church keeps mort gaged.” Married Women and Maids at Dances.—The Imperial Review is trou bled with the question whether married women should dance. It says : “ There is something almost unseemly in the spectacle of a half dozen young married women walking off with some of the best partners in the room, while a row of girls are sitting neglected against the wall. Neither ignorance nor thought lessness can be pleaded in excuse. Wo men thoroughly know women, whatever else they know ; and there is not one of them that is not vividly conscious of what heart-burning it causes a poor girl to hear the music and watch the many twinkling feet of a ball-room, and play the most ig- nomini -us part of a passive spectator.— Grown up women clutching all the toys or sweetmeats off a Christmas tree at a juvenile party, would not be a more un natural spectacle. Grown men, eager to win the skates at a round game got up for lads at home for the holidays, would not be more cruel or inhuman. We are constrained to plead for tenderness and consideration on the part of young women who are married, toward young women who are not. Might not Sidney’s words, as he handed the draught of water to the dying soldier at Lutzen, be profitably re membered? “Thy need is greater than mine.” READ WHAT THE PRESS SAYS. Among the vast improvements of the present times the change in remedies is not the least ime portant. Formerly ridiculous and often injurious mixtures were administered upon the recommen dation of one person to another, or from on- family to another, as being “good” for such and such a complaint, while they were, in fact, use less or worse. Now, Prof. Kayton supplies the public with the most effectual remedies that ed ucated skill can devise or art can produce, with explicit directiohs for their use in each and every case. In place of the senselees potions our grandmothers gave, we have the cunning inven tions of men learned in the art of cure,adapted to our necessities, at a nominal price. I’rid.
