To city subscribers by the month, Seventy-five rents, served by carriers. Georgia State News. • , - The Augusta Chronicle and Sentinel says there are but two‘ways by which the capital can be removed from Atlanta back to Milledgeville. One is by a two thirds ■vote of two successive Legislatures, the other by a two Constitutional Conven tion. It says that if the question is ever submitted to a square vote of the people the removal will be carried. It also hopes that the report that Grant -will soon appoint Gen. Me Laws Marshal •of the State of Georgia, may prove cor rect : *Tu the first place, the appointee was a gallant soldier in the Confederate army, and in the second place, he has been and is a staunch and prbubunced Democrat— two qualifications not usually possessed by Federal officials. His political sentiments are well known to the President, and his appointment, if he obtains it, will be due solely to his merits and the personal rela tions existing between himself aud the President.” The drawing of the Confederate Memo rial Association came off in Augusta last Monday at 12 o'clock. Says the Chroni .cle: “Notwithstanding the earnest and zeal ous efforts of the managers, together with ••the perseverance and laborous exertions -of Col. James M. Smythe, general agent, da behalf of the noble purpose contem iplated in the scheme, candor compels us ito write it down a failure, in so far as it secured the encouragement anticipated. About “1,500 tickets were sold, leaving rthe managers only about $2,500 for distri tbutution in prizes, after deducting fund {ten per cent.) for the monument and nec essary expeuses, a full showing of which will be made as soon hereaftar as practi cubic. The $2,500 were divided into SIOO, SSO, S2O, sls, $lO and $5 prizes—aggre gating one hundred and eighty-three prizes .—four $100; four of SSO; fifty of sls; rten of S2O ; and forty of $5.” The highest prize drawn was SIOO by A. E. Clarke, of Augusta. A little boy twenty months old, son of A. G. Howard, was run over by a street car in Augusta on Monday. Both of legs of the poor little fellow were broken. The real estate of the city of Augusta is valued by the Assessors at $10,256,975. The tax is 1 1-8 per cent. Religious Revivals at Columbus — Onk Hundred and Sixty-Two Acces sions. —lu the last six weeks 67 persons have joined the Baptist church ; 57 St. Luke’s ; 19 St. Paul’s ; 8 Wesley Chapel ; 11 Presbyterian. More will join the latter • The total thus far is 162. Says the Milledgeville Recorder: Judge Warner Sustained—Law and -JusiracE Again Restored to Georgia.— {From dispatches from Washington we {learn that the Supreme Court of the Uni ted States has declared the Relief and the Homestead laws of Georgia unconstitu tional, so far as they relate to debts con tracted before the passage of the laws. This decision of the Supreme Court of the {United States sustains the minority deci sions of Judge Warner on the laws. It also removes the principal objection to a Cowefcitutiona] Convention in Georgia. Many objected to the Convention for fear these two Ordinances would be left out of the new Constitution ; but as they have been disposed of by the Supreme Court of the United States, that objection no longer exists. From the Columbus Enquirer; New Fbeight Direction. —Between April sth and 7th sixty car loads of corn from Louisville and Nashville via the South and North and Alabama Western loads passed through this city en route for Macon, Ga. We suppose this defec tion was caused by the blockade at Chat - tanoojfft and the unsafe and unsettled condition of the Western and Atlantic Bailroad. Whatever the cause it has given a little animation to railroading hereabouts, and indicates pretty clearly that Georgia is about out of corn thus early in the season. From the Monroe Advertiser It has been currently reported that the meningitis and measles are raging in For syth. How the report originated we hare been unable to ascertain, but it is certainly without foundation. We have diligently inquired into the matter, and have found no cause for the rumor. Upon the au thority of our local physicians, we em phatically pronounce the report false. WILD CAT DISTILLKRIES. REVENUE OFFICERS IS TESSESBEE AND ALABAMA MOVE SIMULTANEOUSLY UPON THEIR WORKS. Pursuant to instructions from Col. K. li. Cobb, Supervisor of this District, the In ternal Bevenue officers in the Fourth Dis trict of Tennessee and Third District of Alabama, organized themselves into ridd ing parties on the 20th and 24th of last month, and proceeded to the regions in those districts which have for so long been infested with illicit distilleries, and suc ceeded in finding a great deal of fraud upon the revenue, which was promptly suppressed. Assessor W. C. Bryant of the Fourth District of Tennessee with hk trusty assistants Wm. Nicks aud J. H. Morris, United States Gaugers Barnes, Hammond, Joe Bryant and A. G. Nicks, and quite a number of other Bevenue officers and Deputy United States Marshals, started from Mulbery Village Lincoln county, on the 24th of March, and were ten days in the saddle, riding over three hundred miles over a territory twenty-five miles long and fifteen wide. They captured twenty pris oners, who were bound over to appear at the April term of tnc United States Court at Nashville. Some are to appear as wit nesses only, while the greater portion of them are charged with illicit distilling. Assessor Bryant's party destroyed in all 25 illicit distilleries, 85T tubs and 5 vats con taining 53.400 gallons of beer, 500 gallons singlings, 200 bushels meal and malt, and 000 gallons of whisky, and shipped 60 head of hogs and 7 barrels of whisky to United State Marshal Spence, at Murfreesboro. The officer of the Fourth District count this the severest stroke that the illicit dis tillers of that dsstrict have yet received. Many of the parties arrested were old offenders, for whom warrants had been out a long time, but owing to the desperate character of some of the men, their arrest has been difficult. Just previous to the starting out of the above mentioned party, Collector Ephraim Latham, Third District of Alabama, start ed a party of revenue officers from Hunts ville, Ala., and the following is the result of their work : Destroyed 8 copper stills, 11 worms, 1 cooler.” 300 tubs, 110 gal lons singlings, 10,623 gallons beer, 20 tubs of mash, and made 10 arrests. —Nashville Banner. The chief steward and another man who threw his arm around the steward’s neck, when coming ashore on the rope, were drowned at my feet. The reason I could not render assistance in this case was that two old men went away with a man I had rescued, as they feared he would perish ; therefore there was no one present to haul me ashore if I had jumped off the rocks after them.
