The treasurer of Booth’s theatre.

fusing to grant seats intheparaquette

Col. John M. Powel, once a
wealthy planter in the South, com
muted suicide by an over dose of
morphine, in Brooklyn, on the 7th
inst. Before the war his property
was valued at $2,000,000. At the

The Telegraph and Messenger
spoke very coutemtuously about the
aptness of some folks to adopt every
Yankee nonsense that chanced tc come

NINTH DISTRICT CONVENTION.
An election fora Congressman from
the Ninth District, to fill the vacancy
caused by the death of Hon. Gar Lett
McMiilian, having been ordered by
the Governor, a convention to nomi
nate a candidate met at Gainesville on
Tuesday the 13ih inst. The conven
tion assembled, elected officers, and
proceeded to ballot.
Hon. B. 11. Hill, of Athens, and
lloiL H. P. BeM, of Forsyth county,
are the only candidates before the
convention. On tin first ballot Mr.
Ilili received 28 votes and Mr. Bell
J3 7 The two-thirds rule having been
adopted, neither candidate was nomi
nated. Each successive ballot termi
nated with like results and up to the
present writing the convention has
tailed to make any nomination, al
though nearly four hundred ballots
have been taken. The friends of ei
ther, candidate refuse to yield and the
probability is that the convention will
adjourn without making a nomina
tion, Mr. Hill's friends claim that
i he represents a large majority of the
voters of the district and refuse to
yield on that ground. Mr. Bell’s
friends claim that he has a majority
of the votes of the convention and
therefore Hill’s friends should yield.
| It has been proposed by the friends of
j Mi. Hill to submit the matter to the
: popular vote of the district, which
was refused by Mr. Bell’s friends.
As the district is strictly a Democrat
ie one, we think the proposition to
■ submit the choice of candidates to the
' people at the general election as offer
ied by Mr. Hill’s friends, should be
! accepted, as it is the only fair way to
j determine the merits and popularity
of the two candidates. We want Ben.
Hill to go to Congress and if the mat
ter of choice is left with the people
lie will certainly be chosen.
DROWNED.
At Burche’s Mill, near Augusta,
on the 10th inst., Mr, E. A. Maxwell
and Miss Coriiine Dunwoody, while
in a bateau rowing about for pastime,
were drow 7 ned when some distance
from the shore, Miss Dunwoody ceased
paddling, looked over the side of the
boat, lost her balance and fell into the
pond. Mr. Maxwell went to her as
sistance and in trying to pull iter in
upset the boat and be too fell in the
pond. Mr. Maxwell was a splendid
swimmer and could have easily gained
the shore, but for his heroic efforts to
rescue the drowning lady. lie swam
with her as long as he could and both
sank to rise no more alive. Mr. Max
well was in his twenty-second year,
universally beloved. He was a
brother of Mr. J. L. Maxwell, citv
editor of the Chronicle and Sentinel.
Miss Dumvoody was sixteen years of
age the only daughter of a widow.
The city is shocked by the sad occur
rence.
TIIE WHEEL Lit” COMPROMISE.
The award of tlio committee selec
ted to adjust the difficulties in Louis
iana polities, known as the Wheeler
Compromise, has been submitted to
the Legislature of that State and
adopted by a large majority. Ten of
the sitting members were declared
to be not entitled to their seats and
were unseated. Twelve contesting
members were then seated in their
stead. Poindexterr, a colored mem
ber, said on leaving the house that he
withdrew with pleasure, because the
man to take liis seat was one who
owned him m former days. All the
unseated members were perfectly sat
isfied with the compromise as it gave
peace and harmony to the people.
Governor Kellogg will be recognized
as the legal G6vernor until the gener
al election.
The Legislature is now 7 in session
and working smoothly.
CAST THY BREAD UPON THE WA
TER, Ac.
Senator Morton haspronouced New
Orleans a dead city and so forth, to
which the New York Herald replies
in the following mild way: “Senator
Morton is an eminent statesman of
the Republican party. He has been
the apostle of repression and revenge.
He lias championed every infamy or
usurpation in the South that called
itself a government. Therefore wheu
he pronounces New Orleans a dead
city bespeaks his own condemnation
end that of his party. Dying Aew
Orleans represents the ignorance, the
cupidity, the folly and the crimes of
Mr. Morton's party.”
(luv. Kellogg lias sent a special
message to both houses of the General
Assembly, calling attention to the
fact that the time for which the As
sembly was cconvened is rapidly
drawing to a close and urging the
passage of a bill for the relief of New
Orleans. We know of nothing to ex
ceed this impudence. Is it possible
that the carcass has been stripped of
all pickings’ Would be revive, the
dead city? From wliat comes this
sympathy for the impoverished tax
cursed people of New Orleans? Can
we attribute it to a patriotic feeling
to see the city redeemed or would he
it Uve to be preyed upon by the
insatiatible cormorants which have
reduced it to its present “dead” and
bankrupt state? Morton and his
kind have worked the ruin of that
once proud city. It stands to-day a
sinking wreck swarmed by political
adventurers who have burdened it
with taxation until the gallant craft
is gradually going to the bottom.
Morton beholds this ruin and calls it
a dead city. Kellogg secs it and ap
peals for help lo stop the leaks that
it may float a w hile longer, a hiding
place for thieves and political shar
pers. This is impudence: asking the
Legislature to furnish more pickings
for his v ile crew.
weddingT
We have ihe news of a marriage in
Macon uniting two of the wealthiest
and most prominent families of that
city. On the 20th inst, Mr. Jno. L.
Hardeman, son of Col. Thomas Har
deman, and Miss Fannie E., daughter
ol J. B. Koss, the wealthy dry goods
merchant, \vere united in wedlock,
due church was packed as long as
there was seat room and beautifully
decorated with appropriate devices,
monograms, ect., made of flowers
There wore twenty-two attendants,
beaded by Master J. B. Boss, jr.,
and Miss. Flewellyn Reese, whose
ages would aggregate not more than a
dozen years. Mr. Hardeman and
Miss Ross are gn at favorites in Macon,
noted for their genial, pleasant dis
position and uniform kindness. We
extend .our congratulations and wish
them a long, happy, prosperous voy
age through life.
PSAMUEL BARI).
Bard, the irrepressible, is not yet
ousted from the Atlanta Post-office as
was reported. He has been to Wash
ington, recently, to ascertain the
cause of Ins removal and the substi
tution of Gov. Conley, but was una
ble to learn anything more than that
be had been “talking too much’’ on
tiie Grant third term project, which
he claims to have originated. After
Bard's return, lie was interviewed on
the subject of his removal and says
that Conley's commission has not yet
been signed, and will not be until
Grant is satisfied that a change will
meet the approval of the citizens of
Atlanta. Bald is satisfied that he
can retain his place as the people are
generally satisfied with his manage
ment of the postal affairs in Atlanta.
FREE TICKETS.
An injunction has been issued from
the Superior Court of Connecticut
restraining the New York, New
Haven and Hartford Railroad from
giving officials, legislators or employ
ees of the National State and local
government free passes on their road.
After the injunction was served on
the railroad company the first parties
that were affected by its provisions
was the Presidential party. (Jen.
Grant, \ ice-President \\ ilson, several
members of tlio Cabinet and other
less notable officials were compelled to
pay their fare while passing over the
road on their way to the Lexington
Centennial. We guess his excellency
will curtail his traveling unless an ap
propriation is made for the purpose
of defraying the expenses.
IIAM) HIM AROUND.
The Greenville (Meriwether co.)
\ indicator tells us of a man of that
section who :s feeding his hogs on
corn raised in 1872. He lias cribs ol
coin raised in 1873-4 yet untouched.
Plenty of fodder too, which he is
sacrificing at 82,00 per. cwt., to his
friends who delight in raising cotton.
He is represented as an independent
old jockey. Of course he h> and any
other man in like circumstances has
cause to be proud when iie sees his
good sense lias placed him where he
is, w hile others who probably boasted
of more theory and book learning
cluing around him to get a little fod
der or corn on credit. Let your
light shine, sensible old gentleman,
that others seeing your suet ess may
follow your, example.
Hey. L. i>. Fish, while here, asked
and received a donatian for Kev. J.
►B. Murrow who is laboring among the
Indians. Wt find the following in
the Christian Index: “Brother J. S.
Mur row, Rehoboth Mission Station,
Choctaw Nation, writes to us under
date of April Bth.
‘I am moving on slowly m the eol
ltctiou of the remaining debt, but will
finally clear it off. The Mission is
prosperous. All the churches are ac
tive and aggressive. The suffering
among the people, however, for food
is fearful.
May prosperity attend you ever,
temporal and spiritual. Kind regards
to the friends.”
THE BAUD DISCONSOLATE.
The Ex-Gov. Postmaster being in
distress about his expulsion from the
Post-office, hied away to Washington
to see if the Boss would give the old
man another chance. Post Master
General Jewel gave him but little en
couragement. and the wretched Sam
uel wished tc be allowed the privilege
of refenng the matter to the repuali
cans -t*f Atlanta. Alas! how fickle is
friendship nowadays. Bard has no
republican friends in Atlanta, judging 1
from the petitions forwarded to Post
Master General Jewell endorsing the i
appointment of Conley and praying
that he will not rescind his action
and appoint Bard. Numerous letters
have also been received warmly en
dorsing Conley’s appointment. Poor
Sammy. Start the paper.
TIIE DEAD-LOCK IN TIIE NINTH.

There seemed to be a determina
tion to beat Ilill no matter who op-
I posed him. Air. Hill affirms that he
could have settled tlio whole thing
long since, had he resorted to trading
and bartering.
lie says he has proof that a few de
signing, unscrupulous men are manag
ing the business of the convention
simply to defeat him: that they cart*
naught about the candidate if they
can succeed in Pealing Hill.
Mr. Hill says he has long wished
for an opportunity to expose certain
characters and certain frauds and he
thinks tlio time has arrived and the
public- shall k; '\v some things never
known before.
The'following wa.- address ed to Mr.
Hill by ins supporters in the eon' ca
tion :
Gaixesvilijg, April 21.
iTon. B. 11 Ilill:
The democratic congressional convention
for the Ninth district, lus been in session
at. this place since the fourteenth instant,
and after four hundred and s,x builds have
been unable to make a nominal ion, w hile
the friends ot lion. H. F. Bell have a ma
jority of live votes in the e invention- The
real strength of the candidates living Sff tor
yourself and tor Beil, yet the counties
represented by- the delegates voting tor
yonrselt represent a large majority of the
citizenship ot tiie district ,nd of the demo
critic voters thereof The report of the
"•Comptroller Genera], for 1674, showed ele
veu thousand, eight hundred and sixty live
polls in the counties w lioxe representatives
are supporting you, and eight thousand six
hundred and thirty one puffs in the counties
supporting Mr. Bell. In addition to this
the official voiefforcongtvssnun.it the last
election shows that the counties supporting
you cast two pi mis of the democratic vote
polled ai/said election. In view ot these
tacts we have thinly refused to abandon y< u
for Mr. Bell, believing that the demands of
your oppounents in the convention, w hich
was actually that two thirds ol the people
should yield lo one-third, was unreasonable,
undemocratic and unprecedented. In ad
dition to this you are in point ot fact the
strongest candidate be lore the convention,
us tiie small majority ot live in favor .Mr.
Bell was obtained by a coalition between
friends of that gentleman and the tVtends ot
Mr Wellborn, ol Union. He ate satisfied,
both from tire action of those who oppose
you in the convention and from the positive
assertions ot many ot them that they prefer
Mr. Price to yourself, and that the real
purpose which induced them to reject our
proposition to adjourn sine die, and remit
the whole question to the people, was and is
to continue the convention in session until
the fiitth of May, and thereby secure a de
feat of the popular will. By penniting Mr.
Price to make the race without opposition.
To this traud upon the people, we cannot
become parties. We therefor earnestly
request that you at once take the
lield its the democratic candidate to represent
the ninth district in the forty fourth congress,
pledging to you me enthusiastic support of
ourselves a; and the people whom we represent.
We do not inteuu to withdraw from Lite
convention now in session here, that those
| who are here dylying the popular will
I may place you in a false position in the par
j ty organization, but to remain with them
until the viuy ot the election, if they persist
in rejecting the tail" proposition we have
made them lo submit the matter to the peo
ple. .
