MEETIRG OF THE COMMITTEE*. Agreeably to a call from Gan. A. C. Garllugton, chairman of the Committee of Arragements, the vari ous committees of citizens, and the special committee of the city Council met together in the the ball of the Chamber of Commerce, at 6 p. x. yesterday. Gen eral Garllngten called the meeting to order. Quite a number of gentleman made remarks relative to the program of the preparations for entertaining the dis tinguished guest* expected by our city on the 20th lost. After considerable talking had bean dona, tbe following resolution was offered by O. H. Jonas, Esq., and unanimously adopted; Resolved, That a committee of three be appointed to confer with Governor Smith to-morrow, and meet tha city Council to-morrow night, and report their ac tion to a meeting of the various committees to be held at tha office of CoL G. W. Adair, at 10 o’clock Saturday morning. W. M. Lowry, Gov. J. E. Brown and Attor ney-General N J. Hammond wars appointed the Com- »nndar tha above resolution, after which, on he moating adjourned. The Association met at 9 o’clock a Bov. Dr. Douglas. The first exercise in order was singing by a class from the Luckie Street Grammar School, under charge of Prof. H. H. Smith. Prof. Smith led tho singing, which was very creditable, considering the short time the pupils have been receiving instruction in the art of innsic. The class is composed of boys and girls. This excellent exercise again demonstrated, if demonstra tion were necessary, the grace, beauty and value of the study of music in our public schools. Wo trust this delightful study will bo more generally introduced in schools, and considered of as great importance as any other study known and practiced there. Superintendent Mallon moved the appointment of a committee, to whom shall be referred all applications for situations by teachers. Not acted upon. Mr. Stevens offered a resolution that a committeo bo appointed, to whom shall be referred the question of establishing a Georgia Teachers’ Educational Journal. Adopted. PROF. WADDELI.’S ADDRESS. Prof. W. H. Waddell, of the University of Georgia, tbeu proceeded to address the Association on the sub ject of the “Modern Use of the Ancient Languages.” All ages of the world have tbeir peculiar characteris tics and special idiosyncracies—ours is the age of utili tarianism—our country is that of the practical intellect; onr immense strides in material prosperity and the impulse given by mechanical inventions is the cause of this. It is the daily life of our people. But utili tarianism alone is merely earthly, and has no corres pondence with the skies. Qui lono is now cn every Up. Will it pay ? is the question. Why, then, they ask, the use in acquiring tho dead language of the Past? Why delf in tho dust of the Past ? Why not teach the simply practical ? Why not give preference to the practical and mechanical arts. The speaker gave some amusing anecdotes of the general ignorance of the masses as to the use of the purely scientific and ideal. The atudy of Latin and Greek is the special target for modern ridicule. It is assailed from all q aarters with violence, so that even the champions of the tuition of the classics are dis mayed and inclined to throw up the sponge. The classics are indispensable to a proper discipline of the mind. If this is granted, tho practical value of the study of these languages must be admitted. I claim for the ancient languages much greater dis tinction than this. I would prove that these tongues are of ineffable value in themselves; no man can dis charge tbe full dntieB of an intelligent citizen without them. Governor Cobb said in early life lie had depre ciate d the study of the ancient languages, but he ceased on finding ont thatjhe was one of those who depreciated them simply from ignorance. Accurate knowledge of the nature, power aud scope of languages is a funda mental principle, and forms the foundation of every other branch of knowledge known to man. By it intelligently understand the entire mental phenomena of man. Thought and its channels must be under stood throughout before wo can arrive at the climax of truths. Modern languages alone can not accoin plibli ail this. Why ? Because they are living, loosely inflected, and constantly shifting; and secondly, because they have not a fixed, universally acknowl edged grammatical construction. The speaker here gave interesting illustrations of this point. The power of , transposition, always correct in tho Latin language, and which is not enjoyed by the Btiff con struction of sentences in the English, is a great advan tage, adding beauty and power to tho expression of thought. The speaker went into an interesting aualy- of the grammatical construction English, Latin and Greek langua; Greek and Latin express the finest meanings; ruder Eoglieh can not do this. Ludicrous errors made in the emphasis of our language—errors that cannot occur in the beautifully aud permanently pbasizod Greek. In the license of position lies the power and beauty of the ancient orators and poets of the Greeks. Milton has approached this sublime ceilencc in the opening of Paradise Lost. Tbe c ciseness and brevity of the ancient languages cannot be rivalled. Euphony is another beautiful characteristic of the Latin and Greek, unapproachable in English even by our best poetB. Exactness in tbe reading and pronun ciation of the ancient languages should be tbe chief aim of the student. He should think in Latin as well as speak it. The ancient languages are the fountain head of human thought, and to understand them is to give a man a pre-eminence in all the walks and affair* of life. Their value is apparent in the commonest affairs of business; it disciplines the judgment, .cultivates the taste, gives a man com mand of splendid imagery, and puts into his hands tbe gathered power of the ancient and of the modem worlds. Cicero said the plan to compass the mean ings of eloquence, was to translate tbe grand efforts of the Greek masters of oratory iuto one’s own lan guage. Therefore, the study of ancient languages Is not ornamental, but intensely practical. Latin is the key to many of the modern languages, and a mastery of it gives us mastery in the latter. No preacher can expound the truths of the New Testa ment w*ho is not able to read the original Greek. The physician, the lawyer, the teacher, the journalist, are all under the necessity of becoming familiar with tho nndefiled treasures of the ancients. Even in tbe arts that directly appeal to the practical, the pecuniarily profitable is conserved by the study of these languages. The “practical” man says that education is to store the mind with facts, but where can wc draw the pow- to comprehend the great facts of life but from the original sources of all the thought and cultivation of the world? Education is the discipline of the mind, but it is also more—it is training the soul to imm< tality; it is to raise man to the heights of the Infinite and lit him for mansions in the skies. Oh, teachers, great is your responsibility in training tho germs of mind. Bo true to your duties and your God! From your bands, from the impulses you givo to mind, pro ceed streams that permeate the world and are finally centered in the great ocean of eternity. See to it that these are not diverted from their course, for on them are borne the holiest interests of the human race. The speaker’s eloquence was repeatedly interrupted by prolonged applause, and the effect of the address was most decided. The next topic was •‘SCIENTIFIC SenOOL STUDIES,” by Mr. W. L. Stevens of Savannah. The speaker gave a comparison between scholasticism and utilila- rianism. He specially insisted upon the value of object teaching in onr schools. This system strength ens the powers of observation, and arouses associa tions of ideas. These were excellent exercises for the increase and strenthening of memory, and opens to the observing youthful mind a fairy world of anal- yies of visible objects. Mere definition of tbe qualities and powers of objects aro insufficient, practical appli cations are Interesting,and have indelible impressions. Practice is a better instructor than theory and teach ers should never forget the power that lie* in illus trations drawn from nature. We must learn to in vestigate and in ao doing the best educator is natuie; every pupil should be an inductive inquirer. This will givo him his own tools to work with in the grand arena of life, for mere book erudition will not suffice. Let us have more of the practical and definite and less of “shams;” names, titles are nothing—facts, results are all. Delusions seem to be epidemic; to repell this let ns return to realities; bumble sincerity ; let us delf for tbe pnre gold and not be satisfied with the counterfeit which is tendered ns by tbe empirics in the flelda of education. There is too much of the mcretrlccoos and not enough of the real. Teach children as nature teaches, from real life, instead of from tbe thcorlsm of text books. Tbe classical and tbe practical can be very well combined and ia highly necessary In this pro- grcMive age. Teach science by natural methods, and take advantage of all the means for illustrative appli ances which the inventive spirit of the age may give into the bauds of educators. Tbe speaker was greeted with prolonged applause at the conclusion of his able Messrs. Zettler, Stephens, Lancaster, H. H. Smith, Orr and Calvin. The committee on Lancaster’s resolution to nom inate officers are: Messrs. Lancaster, Zettler, Moody, Roberts and Sims. In addition to the members sleeted, the following names were presented and elected: Mrs. H. L. Harvey, Miss Witcher, Miss Carrie Taylor. Mias Emma Lattimer, Atlanta. THE HIGHER EDUCATION OF WOMAN, was the next essay, by Dr. E. H. Myers, President of tho Wesleyan Female College, of Macon. The speaker stated that he appeared io the character of an innovator—are volutionizer. He insisted that no discrimination should be made in the public schools of Georgia in favor of boys as against the girls. The law seems to give them simply elementary education,while to the boys are opened the higher institutions. This is wrong. There should he created a State University for girls, with ail the appliances of home comforts, etc., which the wants of their sex specially require. The expense of such an institution, erected by the State, will, of course, arouse great opposition; bntthe ineffable benefits that would be given in return far outweigh such objections. The moral and intellectual nfluence8 which would flow from the higher educa tion of the yoxng women of the State would amply re pay the ontlay with a profit not computable ia dollars and cents. Private and benevolent individuals cannot fill the required scope; the State must come in and assume at ltaat the first cost of such Institution; it is the duty of the State to provide for the education of tha youth of both soxas, but prejudice and unwarranted dis crimination has given the upper hand to male educa tion at the expense of the female. We must have as complete a system of education of a high rank for Kiris as we have for our boys. They are as capable of education as the sterner sex, and the influence of wo man is far superior in the affairs and destinies of na tions. It is imperative that woman keep progress with toe age; and, in fact, her education should be supe rior, as she holds in her hand the formaiive principles of the mind, and reigns the sovereign of home. The speaker entered into a just and glowing tribute to the virtues and graces of woman, and portrayed in graphic coloring tbe qualities that go to make up a cultured woman. The questions touched upon are of such vital im portance to society aud the mental status of women that we hope Dr. Myers’ very able and interesting es say will be given to the pnblic in full. Maj. West offered a [resolution in the spirit of Rev. Dr. Myers, that it is the sense of this Association that fsmale teachers performing the same duties as males be remunerated for their services by a similar ratio of salary. Adopted. « I PRACTICAL EDUCATION was the next subject. The speaker, Prof. J. W. Glenn, of Jefferson, in a very practical and lucid manner, •lucidatcd the necessity of practical education, der to fit students for the stern duties of life, and to enable them to draw power and assistance from their surrounding circumstances through tbe benefits of good and practicable education. By practical educa tion the speaker meaut a just blending of theory and practice, of thought aud execution. The speaker’s disquisition was well received and ap- auded. GENERAL BUSINESS. A resolution was offered by Mr. J. H. Nash, to ap point a committee who shall receive applications for teachers and supply vacancies in schools. Committee— Rev. J. Bradshaw. J. II. Nash, and W. II. Bafls. Reso lution adopted. A resolution was offered by Pi of. James that the President appoint fi\'o members to visit the National Teachers’ Association, which meets at Elmira, N Adopted. A letter was received and read from Prof. Caldwell, of the Rome Female College, congratulating the As. sociation and its noble labore, and asking for admis sion as a member, which was unanimously accorded Superintendent Mallon also explained that unfore seen circumstances had prevented the presence of Mr. W. 8. Davis, editor of Home and School, Louisville, Ky., who was announced in the programme as one of tb6 speakors. Excuses for several other speakers on account of sickness were also made. The names of Mrs. and Miss Colqnitt, of Atlanta, were also proposed for membership, anil were ad mitted. The various committees appointed to visit tho va- rioua.public schools of the city, made reports. Rev. Dr. Wills first reported the results of the visit of the committee to the Storr’s school (colored). The committee express themselves highly pleased with the methods ol governing, adopted in.tbis school. The best of order is preserved, and a high order of men tal progress is noticeable. Dr. Wills remarked that if the colored people are to be improved, elevated and iBBtrncted, it must be done by the people of the South. Southerners must instruct the colored race— they feel for these tbe sympathy that can accomplish this great object. Southern ladies, especially, are specially adapted for this humane work, and can best perform it. It Is our duty to elevate, Instruct and christianize the colored people in onr midst. Being our duty, we must faithfully perform it. Again, it is to our interest to do so, as we thereby develop tbe labor power of our section and make it most availa ble ; and finally it is happiness to do good, and then- fore we ought to do it. The Chairman of the Committee visiting the Girls’ High School reportod, through Rev. Dr. Bradshaw, that the examinations resulted most successfully; the training is thorough, and all that has been done has been well done. It Is a model institution, and worthy of the highest commendation and patronage of the people. The reports were recorded and adopted. The report of the Boy a’ High School was equally favorable. The great diligence of the teachers was specially commended, and the organization and curriculum adopted, were lauded with unanimous emphasis. The report of the Committeo on the Ivy Street School states that a careful examination assures the commit tee that the most excellent order is preserved, that the school is thorough aud complete, and they congratu late the citizens of Atlanta upon so fine a school. The Committee on the Crew Street School reported that the moat unqualified praise i* due to the Princi pal and his assistants; that the pupils aro trained tbe best principles of taste, and everything is dono in that school that will insure completeness of educa tion. The Committee on tho Walker Street School report that this school deserves the utmost praise in every particular, and congratulate the citizens on having such a fine institution. The Committee on the Luckie Street School find that tho rooms are too small, and that an overflowing enthusiasm prevails in all its branches. Tho commit tee are unanimous in their praise of tbe efficiency of the teachers and the progress of the pupils. The report on the Decatur Street School is equally favorable. Confidence and sympathy exist between teachers and pupils, and it is very evident that the school is taught on the best principles of the art of teaching. Adjourned. Mr. Morrow advocated the resolution In a few able remarks, and hoped th* excellent system of the ta public schools would be adopted generally^ State. The resolution was unanimously ado^fld, and the The following are the names of persons who regis tered to be admitted to membership in the Associa tion, and were unanimously elected this morning: Prof. O. I- Smith, Oxford, Georgia, Prof. J. 8. Stew art, Oxford, Georgia, Henry L. Johnson, Williatoa, Georgia, Rev. W. A. Rogers, Marietta, Georgia. Colonel R. E. Withers, Virginia. Rev. T. R. Gould in?, Roswt 1 Georgia, Dr. A. B. Brumbv, Boswell, Georgia, Miss Virginia Miller, Hav&nnah, Georgia, Miss Lizzie Mil ler, Savannah, Georgia. The following is the committee on the Stephens 1 resolution: AFTERNOON SESSION. Association met at 3 o’clock. General buaiueas resumed. On motion of Professor Glenn, the time of reading papers on any topic was limited to 30 minutes. On motion of Professor Janes, a resolution passed, appointing a committee who shall be charged with the duty of organizing a Normal School in con nection with this association. PUBLIC EDUCATION IN GEORGIA was the interesting subject thereupon opened by tho Hon. G. J. Orr, the efficient State School Commissioner. We regret that the inclemency of the weather prevented as large an audience as would otherwise have been present. He stated that universal education of the masses of tbe people Is es sential to the prosperity and development of the min eral resources of Georgia. Our mineral wealth is well known, but ite development is in its cmdest infancy. You can not even get a clew at tbe location of this mineral wealth in any of the archives of tbe State. You can not find the trained labor or the skillful men necessary to develop them. The same truths can be ipplied to our manufacturing resources—even here the trained intellect is wanting, and these resources of woalth lie dormant. We have the capital, but tbe men to apply it Bkilliully are wanting, Even in the agricultural pursuits this ovarsbadowing ignorance, with few exceptions, prevails. Wo have no skilled labor to handle the improved machinery of tho ago in this respect. We have railway facilities, but if we had the resources I alluded to developed, even then the great want would be cheap transportation. He alluded in this respect favorably to tho Great Western Canal project. The great key of this Is, the want of general, all-embracing education—trained intellect in every sphere of life. The Constitution adopted In 1778 re cognized intelligence as the basis upon which ropre- ntation and taxation should be built. Our Blate University and onr denominational col leges here done noble work; but wbat has been done for the masses? The old school system was totally Inefficient; the money spent on it might as well havo been thrown into tbe sea. Tbe late war broke down what improvements were being made; tbe authorities freed .the colored population; onr resources were exhausted; a new policy had to be inaugurated, and the new system of public education is a vast improve ment Onr policy must be to give the colored race among us every facility in the way of education that we can; it is our duty. We roust confirm to tbe order of things in this respect; we can thus control them to their own and our own best interests. Professor Orr’a address was exceedingly practical and interesting, and greeted with long and well de served applause. Mr. Morrow offered a resolution, tbat It Is our duty to promote the interests of a free system of pnblic instruction in this State. TOO BRIEF ^ remarks of tho speaker were rewarded with rapturous aud most ontfc ualastlc applause! The committee on educational reported in fa^or of the appointing of a eonmittco of sovefffwfro shall at the next meeting of t .e Association, the feasibility of lablishtngan educational journal for Georgia, and to explain what sources can be depended upon for its support The agent of the houae of J. P. Morton A Co., of Louisville, tendering the Home and School as the offi cial journal, was referred to the committee, which con sists of Rev. E. H. Myers, B. Mallon, Prof. Orr, M, V. Calvin, J. F. S. Lancaster, B. M. Zettler, W. L. C. Stephens. On motion, the proposition of the Homo and School to become tbe official organ of the Association was re considered, aud a motion was made that this journal bo forthwith adopted by the Association. Considerable debate was aroused by this motion, and considerable opposition was manifested. The President, Dr. Lipscomb, explained that tho en tire matter was under the control of the aforesaid com mittee. Dr. Wills stated that it was expected to make this journal the official organ until the next meeting cf the Association. Professor Waddell objected to the selection of any one publishing houso without giving the samo chances to any other Southern publishing houso. On motion, the fchole matter was tabled. The Committee on Election presented the following nominees for officers of the Association : For President—Dr. A. A. Lipscomb. First Vice-President—W. H. Waddell. Second Vice-President—O. M. Smith. Third Vice-President—A. P. Moody. Fourth Vice-President—J. H. Fitten. Becretary—W. L. Stevens. Treasurer—J. B. Derry. PUBLISHING COMMITTEE: J. A. Richardson, A. B. Niles and T. D. T. Douglass. On motion Dr. A. J. Battle was included in the lis- of Vice-Presidents presented to the Associations. As the law only :.llows four Vice Presidents, it as moved to recommit the ieport f which was adopted. Superintendent Mallon offered a resolution amend ing the law so as to make five Vice Presidents, which was adopted, and the officers elected for the ensuing year are, therefore, as follows: President, Dr. A. A. Lipscomb; 1st Vice President, W. H. Waddell; 2d Vice President, O. H. Smith; 3d Vice President, A. P. Moody; 4th Vice President, J. II. Fitten; 5th Vice President, A. J. Battle; Secretary, B. Mallon; Treasurer, W. L. C. Steven*; Publishing Committee, J. A. Richardson, A. B. Niles and T. D. Douglass. A resolution of thanks to the citizens of Atlanta for their great hospitality and the successful manner in which the members were entertained during the ses sion of the Association. Unanimously adopted. Prof. Waddell proposed that the next meeting of the body he held in Athens on, Tuesday, after first Wed nesday in August, 1874. Prof. Niles objected on tho ground that the interests of the commencement exercises of tho University at that time would conflict with tbe interests of tho As sociation, and that other objections hold good. Macon was also nominated as the place of meeting, the time the same as this year. Athens was lost and Macon was carried, and will therefore have the honor of entertaining tho next] meeting of the Georgia Teachers’ Convention; and,I motion, the 1st of M3y, 1874, was the time adopted. Mr. Mallon requested, as a personal favor, to be | leased from the duties of Secretary, and suggested] Mr. L. 8tevens, but it was not entertained by tbe As sociation. On motion, tbe sincere thanks of the Association | were tendered to tho officers of the Association for their efficiency and the faithful manner in which thcjl have discharged their duties. Unanimously adopted. Mr. Iumcaster stated that as there aro many difficul ties to encounter in publishing the proceedings u f the Convention, ho proposed that the expense be paid by eaeh member contributing twenty-five cents, in order to enable the committee to have the proceed ings published in pamphlet iorm. Dr. Myors proposed to cover the expense by increas ing tbe membership fee from one dollar and a quarter. Mr. Stephens moved that the annual fee be fixed at two dollars. Professor Niles thought it unwise to increase the annual fee; it would keep many away who would otherwise attend. It was finally agreed to fix the ft?e at one dollar aud twenty-five cents per annum. Mr. Mallon proposed that the membership bo made for longer than one year, and that tlio Treasurer be instructed to write to absent members and ask for the fee necessary for the succeeding year. Adopted. Mr. Mallon hoped that before long the association will be enabled to pay its own way and not depend upon the hospitalities ol the citizons of the various cities. He thought that this can be accomplished in two or three years. On tho subject of tho reading of papers, it wa* ex plained by the Secretary. The resolution now in forco limits the reading to four papers daily and the time of each to thirty minutes. Mr. Bray moved that all articles and essays to be •ead be submitted to a committeo, which is to decide as to their admissibility. Not seconded. Dr. Lipscomb suggested that reports of the work ings of schools and details of the wuute and wishes of the teachers be hereafter submitted to tbe Convention, aud that a kiud of Educational Fair, illustrative of school work, be held in addition to tho regular busi ness of the meeting. moved that Dr. Lipscomb's important sug gestions be embodied by the Secretary and placed upon the minutes of the meeting as an adopted resolution. The question was freely debated by many of the prominent members of the Convention, and seemed to arouse general interest and pleasuro. Mr. Mallon suggested that this Association further the cause of education by making tho work of] our public schools a feature at the State Fairs, and exhibit to tbe people of Georgia what teachers cax and have done. Rev. Mr. Goulding offered the following resolution That at each meeting of this Convention a portion of one day be devoted to a free conversation subject of school work, and that the several teachers be encouraged to bring with them such specimens of the progress of their pupils in the instructions they| have received as may be couvienieut. Carried. Tlio following were also enrolled as members Miss Julia B. Maynard, of Atlanta; J. Waterbary,] New York; S. Lee, Grsutville, Ga.; and D. A. Beattie, Atlanta. On motion, the meeting adjourned to 8 r. m. ADDRESS OF REV. DR. BATTLE. At eight o’clock p. v. Rev. A. J. Battle, D. D., Pres ident of Mercer University, Macon, addressed tlio As sociation on “The Theories of College Education.” The speaker took as his theme in illustration of the best college curriculum, the German sj’stera. Ho said tho power of kuowledgo was most brilliantly il lustrated by Germany in the late war with France* The most careful system of education is in vogue in Germany; gymnasiums there are to be feund everywhere, and, as they should, take the place of our high schools. Judicious and thorough methods of education are impressed there upon the mind of tho youth of the country. The question is, shall the system of our college ed. ucatiou be free and flexible, or the reverse ? shall tho old system be retained, or shall the progressive, icono clastic tendencies of onr ago be allowed to decide tho questions involved ? Wo should not abandon hastily old amd tried systems ; wo should make haste slowly. Should the college system bo technical or disciplin ary Advocates of the technical insists that students should fit themselves for some special field, and that outside of this is all worthless. He should only seek to obtala the practical. The advocates of a liberal and wider theory maintain that the mind should b# disseminated over tho whole field of learning, aud that to confine tho mind to tho study of specials is to cripple and cramp the spiritual nature of man. Spiritual good is superior to the material—money is not tlio whole geod of life. Money-making Is epidemic In our age. It makes individual and national corruption. The broadening of the mind should be the object of all students. Superior culturo exacts admiration and gives power and Influence. Tbte holds good In all branches of life. I am Inclined to tho latter views, without, however, neglecting tho demands aud benefit of the technical. The German stndent is not onr«dded; his intellect is trained in the many-sided system. In our colleges the same system should be pursued. No exclusive technical stadias should be enforced, bat a large and generous scholarship. Let the college bo the conserv ator of true education. The curricular system Is tbe most economical, and secures just and symmetrical education and discipline* But for minds who cannot pursue wide fields of study this system is not so good, and greater variety can be had in the elective system and Is the most popular. Koch one con stand sad progress on his own merits. Th* arguments pro and con advanced by tbe chain- pi os# ©f either system were clearly and very Interest ingly presented by the eloquent speaker. We need a course of gymnastic studies for the ml* nors in intellectual culture. The University of Vir ginia Is, In iU structure, a real university—a grand monument of culture. The elective system is the most general system, and the classics are being aban* The golden medium should be preserved, e aro in the transition state of mental culture, emer ging from a chaos of conflicting ideas. The classical and purely technical would have blended, and so form a harmonious whole In keeping with the spirit of our Tbe speaker drew a yery graphie picture of tbe university as It should be, and we hope that tho learned gentleman’s ideal will aoon be made real and tangible in this country. Tho speaker was greeted with great applause during tho delivery of his excel lent essay.

John Day, a California hunter, recently fell in with a California lion, and f.ught him sin gle-handed, nndar the most exciting circum stances. Tuesday of last -week, Day’s dogs brought something to bay high up on the mountain side. Supposing the game to be a lynx or a wildcat, he made his way to the spot, guided by the noise of the dogs. Before reaching the dogs, the mountain sides became so steep that it was with the greatest difficulty he made the ascent. Finally he arrived near the place, and fonnd an almost level spot up on which to stand. Casting his eyes upward, he beheld upon a cliff of rocks, 10 or 12 feet above, a California lion, crouched and angry. Onr hero lost no time, bat levelled bis rifle at the animal’s head. Growling with pain and rage, the infuriated beast sprang down fall of tight and fury, and the hunter found himself prostrate beneath his savage antagonist. His gun was knocked out of his hands, and went sliding down the slope. He had a butcher's knife, but that was in bis boot, and, unfortu nately, he had a pair of overalls over all. There was, luckily, a holo in the overalls, through which he succeeded in getting his hand, nnd got his knife. He struck the brute in tho head with his knife the first lime, but tho skin was so tough and wrinkled that the knife failed to penetrate. The second time, he stabbed the animal near the small of the back. Uttering a yell, the animal bounded away. Day immediately gained bis feet and fonnd himself but slightly injured. The Hon, hav ing gone down the hill some distance, stopped. His nfle being between him and tho lion, Day went for the gnn, nnd aflor getting it, so steep was the ground, he could not keep his foot ing, but went slippling and sliding until he was almost upon his old foe. But the lion had no desire to renew the conflict, and when he saw the enemy descending upon him he started for the mountains on the opposite side, screaming worse than any female. Sin gle-handed a man is no match for a full-grown California lion, but Day was decidedly in luck, considering that his shot did not prove fatal Tho lion, somehow, had lost one of his fore paws, perhaps in a trap. This prevented it lrom using its fore feet, and likely discour aged it. Day’s bullet broke its under jaw. The only wounds Day received were in the shoulder, inflicted by the lion’s upper teeth in its attempt to bite him.

The treachery of the Modocs in murdering the peace commissioners brings up afresh the history of the former masacre, in which eigh teen Modoc peace men were murdered. In 1852 north California was disturbed by Indian troubles. The same year a company under the command of Captain Benjamin Wright organ ized and proceeded from Yreka to the Indian country around Tule lake and the lara beds, and fought three successful battles. Their force being insufficient for the Modocs, they returned to Yreka and organized a larger force, and then marched again to the Modoc country. Winter approaching found the Modoc supply of blankets, mmunition aud food extremely limited; consequently the Modocs were anxious for a cessation of hostil ities. Capt. Wright received tho Modocs’ over tures with great cordiality. A peace confer ence was agreed upon, and a place wa* ap pointed in the immediate vicinity of the mas sacre of Gen. Canby. The conference met about twenty-five Indians and thirty white men. While discussing the terms, Wright gave his men the signal, and in a moment they killed eighteen Modocs. Seven Modocs escaped. Thus perished the fathers of the present Modocs. Captain .Tack was then but nine years old, John Schonchin nineteen, Boston Charley and Hooker Jim two years each. It is probable that revenge grew with age, culminating in the Canby-Thomas mas sacre. Some years afterward Wright was ap pointed Indian agent at Kouge river. He was apprehensive of Modoc vengeance. One night a Modoc chief, named Enos, murdered him, and horribly mutilated his body. Enos was afterward captured and hanged. He died exulting that ho had wreaked vengeance on the leader of the massacre of his murdered tribe.

THE RECENT IN NORTHEASTERN The Stuyvesant Litigation. the curious history of one of tiie descend- AN .S OF PETRUS STUYVESANT—SECRE TARY HAMILTON FISH’S COU SIN’s DILEMMA. The final disposition of the immense estate of the late Joseph R. Stuyvesant was yester day again a subject for interlocutory adjudica tion by Judge Barrett The Jury received the result of tho inquest by the commission appointed by him and of the Sheriffs jury irn panelled in pursuance of his order on the question cf iho insanity of Nicholas W. Stuy- vesant, the only son of Joseph R. Stuyvesant, who is indisputably legitimate. His Honor will probably make an order on Monday, turning over the case to a referee for the pur pose of taking testimony on the question of the heirship. THE LIFE OF A ROYSTERER. The old gentleman who has bequeathed this litigation to the world was a person ol singu lar character. When young he ran ftway from homo and went to sea. He inherited vast property, and would have died worth several millions, instead of $250,000, if he had been only ordinarily frugal. His habits, however, were a singularjcoriipound of profligacy and parsimony. To his son, Nicholas, lie made an allowance of $800 a year, and beyond board ing him,would not extend the allowance in any respect. At the same time he spent bis princely income lavishly, and will long be re membered in his usual haunts as a talkative, bibulous old man, who made a special point of paying as ho went, and of resenting any question as to his personal expenditures as a personal insult. WHAT MISSION SHOULD HE TAKE ? The son, Nicholas, inherited many of his father’s eccentricities, but was more particu larly noted for his fastidiousness in dress and for his romancing proclivities. When Presi dent Grant first appointed Hamilton Fish, a cousin to young Stuyvesant, as Secretary of State, the young man bored all his acquaintan ces by repeated conferences with them as to what foreign mission ho should take. The relative advantages of a resident in Madrid, Baris, London, and Berlin as a diplomatic agent of the United States, seemed to be a question of impossible solution to him, aud he kept on talking about it until his mental aberration was so pronounced as to admit of no doubt that A LUNATIC ASYLUM was tho proper place for him. It is curious to reflect that up to within a few days of the time when he was manacled and carried off to an asylum, he was swearing that his father was crazy, and that a jury depending mainly upon his testimony, had docitied that the old man non compos mentis, and consequently un able to make a contract leasing property to his sister-in-law. JABNDYCS AND JAHNDYCK. The appointment of a receiver ot tho luna tic’s property, and the question as to what shall bo allowed for 1ns support, will not be seriously contested. But the Brownings, uncle and two aunts on tho one side, and the half brother and Bister, alleged to be illegitimate, on the other side, have a nice prospect ahead of a litigation which will probably last half ft lifetime. Notwithstanding tho numerous complaints of bad management of the free school of Texan, one of the Democratic papers admit* tbat they are bettor conducted than schools aver have been before in the State, and that a much larger number of youths are now at tending thun at any former period. A telegraph operator in Baltimore, recently sued a friend for twenty-five cents, the amount he paid for a telegram sent at his request. He obtained a verdict for the amount and costs, aggregating $L 1)5, but the Maryville Eagle, 17th. Tho family of David Mannen, with the exception of himself and his daughter (fif teen years old), had left home on Monday. Mr. Mannen was at work in the field, and the young girl in tho house, reading. A negro man, fifty years old and the father of grown up children, who lives in the same neighbor hood, entered the house, seized the girl as sat in the chair, threw her to the floor and attempted to ravish her, but he became frightened at her outcries and left without accomplishing his purpose. Before leaving the negro threatened to kill his victim if she informed on him. The girl was seized with hysterics and cried all night, unable to tell what was the matter. The next morning, however, her mother elicited from her what had taken place, and upon the return of her husband and son from the field informed them. The son, a youth of eighteen, Beized his gun, and in his shirt-sleeves, accompanied by his father, grode to the negroes house. On being called out, the negro ran out the back door of the cabin, aud was at once shot by young Mannen in the thigh, and again while getting over the fence in the back of the head. The last discharge of the buck shot proved immediately fatal. The youth then went to Minerva and surrendered him self, was tried tho same afternoon, aud was discharged by tho magistrates. The whole community justified the act. Intense excite ment prevails at Minerva, and the deepest sympathy is felt for the young girl and her afflicted family. Hebrew Emigrants from Roumania.—It is said that the cruel persecutions to which the Israolilish inhabitants of Roumania have been subjected for several years past have caused them to turn their eyes towards this country. Several wealthy and leading He brews recently arrived in New York, having come as pioneers to arrange for the settle ment of several thousand of their co-religion- ists who desire to make their homes in this new country. It is thought that they will locate near Lincoln, the capital of Nebrasaa. The New York Herald says : It is computed that as soon as their colony has been fixed upon in the United States that from three to five thousand will immediately proceed across Europe to Antweip in Belgium where they will embark for this port It is reported by Mr. Jaroslawaski, of 428 West Forty-third street, that lully fifty thousand of the Jews in Roumania are desirous of pro ceeding to this country, and that an organi zation of friends has been established in this city to help their persecuted brethren who may arrive here. To settle a bet a petition was recently pre sented for signature to a worthy citizen of Do- tioit,|Mioh., praying for tho abolition of tho fire and police departments and his own execu tion. He glanced at the first few lines and put down his name. "Her little bed is empty!”—sequel to “Put me in my little bed”—is the very latest popu lar sentimental song in England.
