OLAY’S TEAM STILL HERE- Coronation of the Queen of Love and Beauty. HERALD SPECIAL TELEGRAM Eufaula, Ala., October 18, 1873. The Fair closed this evening with great eclat and success. The attendance during the week was larger than last year, but the exhi bition, particularly m live stock, was inferior to ihat of last year, CUy’s matchless team ex cepted. The coronation and ball last night were very brilliant. Mr. C. C. Stillman, as the “Knight of Kentucky,” won the first prize and honor in the tournament, and crowned hia wife Queen of Love and Beanty. A large crowd from this point will attend the Georgia State Fair. Senex. Washington items. Washing ton, October 18, 1973. A special to the New York Times says that the con* troversy about the burning of Columbia, South Caro lina, has received a quasi formal determination by the British American mixed commission. This contro versy grew out of the claims for cotton destroyed in the burniog of Columbia, which claims were baaed upon the assumption that the city was burned by the federal soldiers, icting under the authority of the federal commanders. The vast mass of testimony taken on t l, at subject was before the commissioners and after giving it careful attention every one of those claims was disallowed. The total amount claimed was between six and eeven million dollars. A semi-official statement of the finances of the Gov ernment, concludes there Is no apprehension that Congress will impose additional taxes to supply the supposed or actual deficiencies thereto, but rather re strict the appropriations to economical limits, and commence no new works that may net be actually needed. The Star says the appropriations which Congress will be asked to make at the coming session, including the estimates for the next fiscal year, and very large deficiencies for the present ye r, there is reason to believe.'will be greatly in excess of the appropriation for any year since the beginning of President Grant’s administration. Slatter’s new trial has been continued until the next term. Joseph Lackey, from Sonth Caro ina. who was sen tenced to eight years' imprisonment for Ku-kluxing, has been pardoned, A new trial has been granted to Slatter. MISSOURI.

THE IRISH CATHOLIC UNION, j n B,n<,vo>Dt Soci - ,y n1 "" in E * Uimoro J The Clearing House adopted resolutions to resume Interesting Discussion. St Loris, October 18, 1873. In the Irish Convention to-day there was a debate upon the following resolution: The present system of public schools, ignoring all supernatural authority and making God, the first currency payments on tho 27th, and redeem certified checks in twenty per cent, installments on the 20th, 22d, 23th and 30th.

A lengthy discussion was had. Rev. Dr. , Father Ph?lan, of St. Louie, defended the resolution, j Brooks, of St. Louis, was the most prominent opposer and said, we have nothing to do with Richmond or its j c f proposition. A vote was finally reached late schools, and if religious instruction was excluded , last n ;ght, and resulted in 47 yeas to 32 nays. Dr. Brooks then asked the thirty-two opponents of union to meet in the church this morning, to determine wbat further action shall be taken. It is believed they will secede and organize a new Synod. NEW YORK NEWS. from them, aa Mr. Reiley said, they were the most objectionable of all schools. Public men of America were educated in public schools, and were exhibitions of the system, and they were the most corrupt and dishonest of any country in the world. Men can steal in this country with impunity, provided the amount is large enough. That the children of this country will go heels over head to the devil, and it must be at tributed to the education they derive in the schools, which dots not fit them for the temptations of the world. In these schools men of science are honored and eulogized, but the name of Jesus Christ is not allowed to be mentioned with reverence. These children turn out to be learned horse thieves, scho lastic counterfeiters, and well posted in all schemes of deviltry. Mr. Sardie, of Pennsylvania, denounced the reso lution, aa it contemplated the union of the Church and Bute. President Dwyer said the resolution meant no such thing, and he did tot wish such an impression to get abroad. He advised that the resolution be chang-d so as to simply favor Catholic schorls. Mr Hardie proceeded, and said that the Catholics had gained a gTeat victory in driving the Bibl? out of public schools. Father Graham interrupting, said the church did not drive the Bible out of the schools, and that the purpose was to put in them a correct version of the Bible and the Catholic catechism. Mr. Harley—Exactly. Now, I ask you is it just or right that we should introduce our Catholic catechiem among Protestants, when we will not allow Protest ants, who are in a majority, to use bibles in publh schools. Mr. Chance, of De’aware, thought this was a fl eg in the wioag direction. They might favor Catholic school*, but they should not denounce PretesUnt schools. Father Butler of Kansas thought the resolution went too far. It should not be forgotten that the pnblic lehools of this country bavo served as models for the Catholic parochial schools, and in that respect ha i dene good. The main difference between them was the one of religion only. Father Phelan again spoke, and said he thought the delegates from tLe East had not studied this subject enough. He frankly confessed that Catholics stood before the country as enemies of public schools, and the reasons should be stated. He considered these reaoas were embodied in the resolution. They mast ray they would as soon send their children into a pest-house, or bury them, as to let them go to the pnollo school*. They were assured that they would Joont, the faith. They were afraid the child who left home in the roorniDg would come back with « mo- thing in its heart as b ack as bell. Father Mangnin—The public school system ii u nuisance.

Panama, October 8, 1873. On tho night of the 234 of September, the Corrioso party, which has been lurking for some time in the woods, some distance«from the city, came in and oc cupied the suburbs, which the government had left unprotected. They opened fire on the morning of the 21th, and kept it up a Imost incessantly till the 6th inat., whan they retired. Daring the hostilities. General Corrioso arrived from Costa Rica on the 30th nit., and having managed to land secretly, at once took direction of the proceedings against the gov ernment of General Neira. He at once announced that Generel Neira had ceased to bo the legitimate Preaident of the State of Panama since he was over thrown by tho Revolution of the 6th of April, that expelled him from the State; and, moreover, that he, Carrioao, being first designated to substitute in such a case, he proclaimed himself to bo legal President* The government, however, refused to come to terms* and made resistance successfully. It is supposed tnat the rebels’ ammunition gave out. It is be lieved that they will return and renew the attack. In the contest, both sides were armed with rifles of most approved pattern. The government had the advantage of possessing cannon, which have produced great destruction to maDy valcable houses during the continuance of this contest. Fortunately Admiral Almy arrived and hoisted his flag on tho United States steamer Pensacola. Seeing the unpro tected state of the transit from the disordered condi tion of ths city, and there being no national force on the port, the Columbia landed 150 men at railroad station, and afterwards at the request of tho Government itself sixty men with their officers; that Gen. Favablc, of the rebel party, might come across the road, sene out a forco ani demanded that the train be stopped, and had all passengers searched. Tho Adtriral, on being informed of this daring at tempt on freedom, iuter-eceaaic travel was ordered guarded. Tho United States Marines accompany each train, and shoot down any armed men who should try to interfere with it. The inability of tl o Government to protect transit, calls forth much comment. A constituent assembly which was organized to settle matters, has don> little c-lse than authorise a forced loan of $20,000 on tho ci»y, and $40,000 on the province. The state of afFiirs unsettles business in Panama. It is hoped Admiral Almy will not give up possession and protection of ths transit till assured travel will be no farther disturbed. CA.LIFOBMA.

The Times’ Paris correspondent telegraphs as fol lows: “From exact information it appears that the Mon archical parties have come to an absolute agreement. Chambord has made concessions which are satis factory to liberal Monarchists, and the following will be submitted at the opening of the Assembly: The proc lamation of the Hereditary Constitutonsl Monarchy, the King promising liberty of conscience and equality before the law, as the right of all. The Monarchists are confident of a majority in the ara mbly. It is said that 416 deputies are pledged to support the restoration of Royalty. London, October 18,1873.

A special dispatch to the London Times, reporting the agreement between the Count de Chambord and the Monarchical parties in tho Assembly, gives the following additional points in tbc programme to be announced at the opening of the session: T he < ligi bility of all persona to civil employment; universal suffrage; a reasonable liberty of the press, aud the tri color to be maintained as tho flag of France. This last point, however, is open to mutual concessions. The Times’ dispatch a'so says the Assembly is called to meet not lat r than the 27th inst. TELEGRAPHIC^ BREVITIES.

Editors: The following ticket of “ Solid Democrats ’’ is com mended to the people of Atlanta as every way worthy of their support, harmonizing all differences and se curing general satisfaction: JNO KEELY JASG KELLY It is with feelings of cadness that we ihrcnicle the death of Mr. Alonzo Buchanan of this city, who met with his death by being run over by a box car on tho Western and Atlantic railroad yesterday about one o’clock. The facts of the cad occurrence, as far as we conld learn them were as follows: About one o’clock on featirlay the engine Texas, left the car shed with fifteen bex cars which they were transferring. Ab the train left the car shed a man was seen to jump on tho latter on the car next to the hindmost car. No one of the train hands seemed to tec him until they passed tho Western and Atlantic Depot. Tho tiain was then running at the speed of six or eight miles per hour. Robert King, a colored brakesman, who was on lop of the train, saw the man as his bead ap peared above tho side ef the car. He then signaled tho engineer to stop, and called to* Buchanan to climb cn top. It seems that Mr. Buchanan mitunoerstood bim, as he at once com menced descending. Mr. C. J. McCrary, tho engineer, did not see the signal, and continued at the same speed. As the tiain passed Butler’s flouring mill, a curve in the road carried the train so closo to the ad joining track, on which weie st me stationary cars that the (raise almost touched. When this point was reached, the man on the ladder was swept eff, and crowded between the two last cars. He fell on the track, and the first car pasted over Ills body, severing his legs almost entirely in two. Drs. Heery, West moreland and Hamilton, were soon cn tho ground, and administered chloroform and stopped tho bleed ing of the leaders, and attended tokis many wants. Ho was placed on a litter and carried to his house on Foundry street, ne was peifcctly conrcicuBfor at least thirty minutes after tne accident, aud during the time he urged the doctors TO KILL HIM and put him out of pain. He died exactly at ten min utes past two o’clock, about one hear after the acci dent occarred. His last words were (pekentohis stepmother, ar.d were: H§“Tell Annie to be a good girl." By Annie he meant his wife. Ths deceased man was J. W. A Buchanan. Ho lias been liviDgin tho city about five year*, formerly lived in Athens, and moved from there here. Ho was about twenty-one years old, and was a man of good habits, eober and industrious, and well thought of by tbo community. He was an apprentice printer, working with Mr. Reynolds, who speaks of him in the highest terms. He leaves a young wife and aged mother to mourn his death. THE WOUND. Hia loft leg was severed entirely in two just above the knee, only ’held together ty the tkin. The right leg was cut by the wheel cf the car almost entirely off, through the thigh, ar.d the bedy bruited in many places.
