The Joe Brown muddle aud the Canal Convention
are matters of too little importance to stop the wheels
of Justice at the fetation house; for Johnson and his
subordinates are constantly arresting unregenerate
men and women, and it is neceseary for his Honor to
investigate the charges made against them, lest the
city's beef bill ahoald become extravagant while the
government is pledged to retrenchment and re form
Accordingly, at ten in the morning of yesterday, old
Dennis came to time, and fixed his syes in undis
guised wonder on Tom Morris’ lips. Tom’s lips
are large enough for the whole Morris family, and
the trimmings would make an excellent dish of hoard
ing house hash, but the lips were not at fault this
time. It was an accident, Tom said, that the haDd
cart he ran over got broke, but Dennis asked for more
light on t’ie subject, got it, and made Tom pay $3 50
for it.
A worthy Irishman was next arraigned for selling
potheen in less qnantltios than one quart without li
cense, but it turned out that they were after the
wrong party, as his wife was the guilty man. J. C.
says he can’t seo what difference^ that makes, as he
had to shell out $28 50 all the same.
James Griffin, a lively fifteenth amendment, said
there was no doubt at all of his guilt, and counted out
$10 and costs.
Henderson A Torrence- got off with the costs for
crowding the sidewalk with spring chickenp. 'Whether
they winked at the Court or Johnson, or both, as the
trial progressed, we know not; we only know they
keep spring chickens and got off with the costs.
Early yesterday morning the city presented a live
appearance, a large number of delegates to the Con
vention, aud visitors having arrived. At half-past
ten o’clock a national salute was fired from the heart
of the city, which shook the window glass and plaster
ing from quite a number of buildings.
At precisely twelve o'clock the Convention was
called to order by Governor Smith. A large concourse
of people, among them many ladies, having assem
bled st the Capitol. About two hundred delegates had
arrived up to this time. Governor Smith delivered
he address of welcome in some appropriate remarks.
GOV. smith’s address.
Gentlemen or the Convention — It has been set
tied by the Committee of Arrangements, who had
charge of the business preliminary to the assembling
of this body, that I should call the Convention to order
at this hour; and it has also been made my pleasant
duty to extend to the Delegates representing differ
ent sections of our common country, in behalf of the
people ef Georgia, a warm and hearty welcome,
are glad to see you in onr midst, and you are invited
to share onr hospitalities. You are all familiar with
the object for which this body has convened, and I
deem it unnecoasary to detain you with any extended
remarks. Perhaps my views on the great enterprise
that will receive our deliberation on this occasion,
known to all the Representatives, and a repitition of
them here would be unnecessary. In conclusion,
again extend to you, in behalf of the people, a hearty
welcome to the State and Capital of Georgia.
Prayer was offered by Rev. Dr. Wills, D.D.
At the conclusion of Governor Smith’s remarks,
Colonel B. W. Frobel then nominated Colonel Lewis
A. Thomas, of the State ol Iowa, for temporajy chair,
man, which was adopted. Colonel Thomas, who is
ffiae looking man, and truly representative of o
great western country, and who has for a long time
been earnestly enlisted in the matter of increased fa
cilities for transportation, asceDded the stand in the
midst of applause, and spoke in substance
lows:
Gentlemen and fellow-citizens: I return you my
sinccie thanks for the honor conferred in calling
to preside over this body during the permanent
ganization of the Convention. As has been stated,
the importance of increased facilities for transporta
tion, has long since enlisted my attention and engtged
my mind. I come from the northwestern portion of
this great country- From a State comparatively
and yet possessed of a teeming population of good
industrious and enterprising people.
In this fertile section we have millions of bushels of
corn, which is almost absolutely worthless to us. and
which, though you of the South perhaps need, yet be
cause of the great distance, and tne present method of
transportation you can’t afford to purchase from t
How then can we get a reasonable price for our pro
duce, and yet the consumer realize in the purchase
similar reasonable rates, is a question of vital impor
tance, and one that commends itself to the whole
country- To remedy the circumstances, inconve
niences and embarrassments which now surround
is the object sought to be attained by the mature de
liberations of this body, composed as it is of represen
tative men from all sections, having in viow the ad
vancement and prosperity of the country. The solution
of these questions is the business of this body, and
that you will meet them in an intelligent and proper
manner, I am not skoptical enough to doubt. Governor
Sznitb, among others, has boldly and wisely taken the
initiatory step in this desirable object, his aim being
to secure cheap transportation to and from the West.

After adjournment it was announced that badges

they were invited to come forward and procure them.
pie, and speak of duelling as a relic of barbar
ism, delivering moral lectures on the subject.
They refer to many of the bloody duels that
were fought in the South in former days, and
express the hope that as civilization pro
gresses, duelling will be discountenanced at
the South as it is at the North and in Eng
land.
It is a curious fact that the first duel fought
in the American colonies took place at Ply
mouth in 1621, between two serving men. A
rather ludicrous punishment was inflicted on
them, they being sentenced to bo tied togeth
er, neck and heels, for twenty-four hours.
In 1728, a young man named Woodbridge
was killed in & duel on Boston Common by
another young man named Phillips. They
fought without seconds, in the night time,
and with swords. Phillips escaped to France
on board a man-of-war. This tragedy led to
a severe anti-duelling law in Massachusetts.
We, however, do not design to enter into de
tails on this subject.
While of late years there has been a very
decided abatement of the duelling spirit in
the Southern States, theie are still many
persons who hold that the practice is neces
sary to prevent street fights, that it tends to
foster courtesy in speech and manners, and
places the feeble upon more equal terms
with their ^ superiors in physical strength.
Whatever may be said lor or against the
system, few will deny that cases do some
times arise which appear to admit of no oth-
or honorable solution.
Spcccbcs l»y General John U. Gordon-
Governor Leslie, of Kentucky—and
Hon. L. A. Thomas, of Iowa.
At the Kimball House last night a serenade wo
given to the members of the Convention, when Gen.
Jno. B. Gordon delivered a welcoming address to the
delegates from other States. He began by bidding
them welcome to the city and the hospitalities of her
citizens. He spoke of the bitter feelings between tbe
North and South engendered by the late war. These
he deprecated, aud hoped the opening of water com
munication between the West &Dd South would not
only benefit the agricultural and other material inter
ests, but that a friendly feeling would be the result,
which would swallow up and obliterate the bitter feel
ings heretofore prevalent, concluding in a pefect
burst of eloquence, amid tremendous applause.
Load calls were now made for Governor Brown of
Tennessee, but he could not be brought out.
Governor Leslie of Kentucky made a brilliant effort;
complimented Gordon; desired burdens lifted off of
the Mouth and West, and all sections made to share
alike in the burdens and benefits of the goveenment;
spoke of the destiny of the country, the freedom, posi
tion and happiness within the reach of all its citizens.
His effort caused his hearers to think the mantle of the
immortal Clay might have fallen on his shoulders.
Honorable L. A. Thomas of Iowa came next. His
effort proved him to be a man of powerful and vigor
ous rnlud, familiar with the want3 of the S4uth aud
West, and determined to do all in his power to reme
dy the evils complained of.
Loud and repeated calls wore made for Bon. Hill,
Miller, Hardeman, anybody but Joe Brown, and so on,
but no further speeches could bo had, and the Im
mense crowd slowly dispersed.

“ The Coming Conflict.”—Coder this cap
tion one of the leading New York Grant pa
pers thus plainly states the situation, on
which the assembled Governors are to sit at
Atlanta on the ‘20th inst We give it for the
double purpose of showing the issues that
‘‘are looming in the future.” and to prove to
our representative men that even in the camp
of General Grant they will find aid and com
fort when the “irrepressible conflict” between
the “young giants” and the old railroad kings
begins in earnest. Tho New York Commer
cial Advertiser says:
The enormous profits of New England man
ufacturers of “protected” articles are exciting
a sharp discussion among the organs of the
Western agricultural interests. There's a big
war brewing between the young giant of the
West and his New* England sponsors upon
this question. Those formidable organiza
tions known as “Farmers’ Granges" are the
nuclei of the future grand army of opposi
tion to the spirit of monopoly which has its
chief stronghold among the rich manufac
turers of the New England and Middle States.
When the hosts are marshaled and the lines
formed, politicians with their little “slates”
will experience something to surprise them.

New Y’ork Herald.
PwICiimond; Va, May 15, 1873.
Since tbe death of Mr. J. 13. Mordec&i—one
of the principals in tbe late duel—tbe excite
ment in relation to tbe tragic termination of
that event has increased. Both principals
and seconds belonged to tbe elite of society
here, and when tbe matter, which at first was
only an offense termed felonious shooting,
became in reality a murder, under tbe laws
of the State, for w hich all the parties con
cerned were equally held guilty, it assumed a
more serious and terrible aspect. Before the
death of Mr. Mordecai the other parties en
gaged in the duel were arrested under the du
elling act, and bailed—Mr. McCarty in the
sum of $5,000, and the accessories, as charged,
in tbe sum of $2,000 each. They are now
charged with murder, which is not a bailable
offense, and Inst night, when the Chief of Po
lice had procured a new warrant for the re-
arrest of all tho parties, none could be found
but Mr. Page McCarty, the other principal,
who was lying dangerously wounded at tbe
residence of his mother, on Upper Mam
street. All the seconds were either hid or
they had absconded to avoid going to jail,
until arrangements could be perfected amoDg
their lawyers for a concerted plan of defense.
Mr. McCarty was
CLOSELY GUARDED BY A POSSE
of special constables sworn in for that pur
pose, his condition not being such as to admit
of his removal to jail. The seconds who could
not be found were Messrs. W. L. Royal and
W. R. Trigg, on the part of Mr. Mordecai, de
ceased, Messrs. Wm. B. Tabb and J. S. Mere
dith on the part of Mr. McCarthy. The two
latter are supposed to he still in the city, while
the two former are said to have taken a flying
trip to Baltimore. It is announced by friends,
however, that all the seconds will be forth
coming to-morrow morning and will surrender
themselves to the authorities, subject to any
disposition that may be made of them. To
day a coroner s inquest was held upon the re
mains of Mr. Mordecai, and a
POST-MORTEM EXAMINATION
revealed the fact that the pistol ball had en
tered at a point about two and a half inches
from the navel, passing under the muscles in
a horozontal direction till it reached the mid
dle tine, where it was deflected dpwnward
and backward, entering the cavity of the
abdomen, and passing through the left bone
ot ths pelvis, ilium, and being found in the
flesh ot the lett hip, about an inch from the
suriace. There was intense inflammation of
all the abdominal organs. The intestines
were not perforated, ajjd death is attributed
to pentonitis. The testimony of the Chief of
Police went to show how that, because of
the lateness of tbe notice which he had
obtained—five minutes before tho hoar ap
pointed for the duel—he did not arrive on
the ground until it was over. When
he reuched tho almost inaccessible field,
he at once said to those present
WHAT THE CHIEF OF POLICE 8AID.
“Gentlemen, yon are al 1 my prisoners; but
as these poor wounded men must first be
taken care of, I will take your word to report
to me in the morning.” All pledged them
selves and accepted the parole. The Chief
then approached Mr. Mordecai, who appeared
to be suffering most, and who excited bis
sympathy, when the following conversation
eusned between them: •
“I regret that, lb* your sake, I did not ar
rive in time to stop this,” said the Chief.
“It would have been useless, Major, and it
is better as it is, for now but one worthless
man is lost, whereas, had this meeting not
taken place, we would in all probability have
met in the street, aud then some innocent
person might have suffered from our shots.
No, it is best as it is; you could not have pre
vented it.”
The testimony of one of the surgeons and
another witness gave tho asserted points in
relation to the duel, heretofore related in tho
Herald, thongh differing somewhat r.s to de
tails. Tho inquest adjourned at eight o’clock
p. m. , to meet again at the call of tho Coroner.
LOCAL NOTICES.
Eastman Business College.—It is with
confidence that we open the summer season
for oar well-established College, and call
upon the people to oceord to us in the fntnre
the liberal patronage they have given us in
the past Oar College is well organized, un
der fine discipline, and better worthy of the
support of the public than it ever bos been
before.
We claim to bare the best and most suc
cessful College in the South, and defy compe
tition. We lest our claim to this distinction
upon the progress made by onr stndents now
in training, and upon tbe success of tbe grad
uates that we have established as snccessfnl
business men in ail departments of trade.
We challenge for a contest before an intel
ligent audience, of onr stndents with the
stndents of any similar institution in the
South, as to the method of book-keeping,
penmanship taught, and proficiency attained
each. We put our reputation in the hands
of our students.
We earnestly invite fathers who are in the
city in attendance upon the Convention to
call and examine the practical workings of
onr institution. A business education is the
richest legacy a man can leave bis son, and it
is highly important that he should get this ed
ucation from the very best college.

Most Important of All.—It may be true
that the Convention of Governors in session
here to-day may find the Great Western Canal
of high importance, but by far tbe most im
portant doty devolving upon them during
their stay in Atlanta is the providing of
themselves with one
of Holbrook’s hats,
and the purchasing of some of Holbrook's
matchless Millinery. Their constituents will
find that they have not made their trip in
vain if they return ornamented with one of
these unapproachable hats, and their wives
will certainly feel that it has been a success
if they return laden with dainty beauties
from Holbrook’s millinery rooms.
Every style of bat or cap that humao in

emporium, and millinery and straw goods in

The Virginia Sentiment on
Dueling.
Tbo late unfortunate personal difficulty be
tween two young gentlemen of Richinoud re-
Hultiftg in the death of one of them, lias beeu
so severely commented upon by the Northern
press that Tho Whig, of that city, takes up
the codgels, aud rebukos the Pharisees. Al
though what has been succinctly termed
“Southern Chivalry,” and tho constant recur
rence of duels must, in a great measure, be
now regarded as.past institutions, yet there is
both troth and force in the remark* which we
reproduce from the Whig.
Some of the Northern journals seem greatly
exercised over tbe duel that recently took
place in this city. They ridicnle the mock

Dear Sir—In reply to your inquiry, I would
state that my opinion of PETERS' EUREKA
TANNING PROCESS may be inferred from
the fact that I am now wearing a pair of
boots, the leather of which was tunned by
that process before the same was perfected
and a patent obtained; that the said boots
have now been in wear for the period ogthree
years—are the most pliable and easy to tho
feet of any boot I ever wore, end are in a
good state of preservation yet.

I The undersigned take pleasure in affirming
their knowledge of the facts, and tne truth of
the statements set forth, in the foregoing let

tanned by the Eureka Tanning Process.
