The Sun’s article mentions John W. Norton, and places the swindle at from $100,000 to $150,000. Norton, however, is a man of wealth, and compounded with the Gov ernment. John Mason, a clerk, has been de tected in opening letters, and held in $10,000. bail. He has been in the postoffice 25 years, and owns some valuable property. Other employes are suspected of similar crimes. . Cincinnati, September 13.—Eleven thousand attended the Exposition to-day. New Eogland and the South contributed tha larger part of the fabrics.

Thinks it be3t for the chambers to separate and reassemble if only for a day. He relies on the patriotism of the country to pre serve the perfect tranquility which France needs to revive her credit. M. de Tocqueville, nephew of the late statesman, will probably be the French minister to .Washington. The committee of tho Assembly has agreed to report in favor of a recess. Washington, September 13.—Senator Pool and Representatives Buckley and Beck, consti tuting tho snb-committeo of the Ku-klux In vestigating Committeo, met to-day to examino and digest the mass of evidence furnished by executive officers of the Southern States, con cerning their finances, taxation, election law, etc., in order to report to the full committee of twenty-one, which meets on the 20th inst. The sub-committee Bid to-day that several governors have failed to furnish information requested by the chairman of the sab-committee, and the re nt npon the matters above indicated will be complete, unless such information is com municated without further delay.

The question grew out of the First National Bank of New Or leans which failed in 1867.

Savannah, September 13.—In oonsequence the many rumors circulated in the face of the denial by the Mayor and physicians of this city, it is deemed necessary to restate the statement that there is no yellow fever here, nor ha3 there been a single case during the season. The health of the city is unprecedentedly good; ru mors to the contrary are wholly gratuitous, and are no doubt put in circulation by parties whose interests are to injure the trade of Savannah. The mortuary report of the city for the week ending September 11th, gives a total of 22 de» , ’'9, c.f which 15 are negroes. Chicago, September 13.—Tho Episcopal Convention passed the following additional section to the constitution: No clergyman shall resort to civil courts to arrest or avoid eccle siastical proceedings against him, under penalty of suspension.

New Yoek, September 13.—The British bark Henry Palmer, from Boston for Doboy, Ga., in ballast, put in here to day badly damaged in a hurricane on the 1st. Boston, September 13. —The Tariff, from Liverpool for Boston, pnt into Halifax short of ooah St. Louis, September 13.—The St. Louis ana St. Joseph Railroad sold at public auction, this afternoon, for $138,000, under order of the United States District Court.

The notorious insurgent Lari, and fivo others, have delivered themselves up. Flobence, September 13.- The Opinion states Count Renineat, French minister, declares France accepts accomplished facts in Italy. She only wishos to see the spiritual independ ence of the people secured. Renewal of cordial relations between France and Italy i3 therefore possible. A Banter From Bonner.—Referring to Gold smith's Maid’s recent extraordinary trot, the New York Ledger says that if she had trotted a mile in 2:17 it would leave her behind Dexter, for he trotted in the presence of 10,000 people in 2:16, although beaten in that race by a run ning horse, who made it in 2:15, and therefore got tho reoord. He offers to pay $100,000 for a horso which will beat Dexter’s feat of a year ago, trotting a mile in 2:21 ^ with a road wagon and driver weighing 319 pounds behind him. If tho owner of that horso deoline3 to sell him, Bonner will give $10,000 for the pleasure of seeing the feat performed. A good story is told of Marshal McMahon when a colonel. During a parade he had an al tercation with an officer in tho ranks who refused to obey him. McMahon finally threatened the offender, and the latter drawing a pistol, took deliberate aim and fired. Fortunately the cap snapped. Without the slightest sign of fear, cool and impassible, McMahon said, “give that man fifteen days in the guard house, for having his arms out of order 1” Personal.—In a late allusion to W. H. Tison, Esq., the senior of the firm of Tison & Gordon, Savannah, we stated he was born in Florida. This was a mistake, as that gentleman is a na tive of Glynn county, and began his mercantile life as a clerk in this city. While here, in 1835, he enlisted with the Macon Volunteers and served through the Florida war with them- Mr. Tison moved to Savannah in 1852, and has been engaged in business there ever since. His es teemed partner is the son of Coh W. W. Gor don, the first President of the Central Railroad. The Election Yesterday.—The election for Senator yesterday was like the handle on a skil let—a one-sided affair. The Rads, were thor oughly demoralized. In nominating old Mr. Tiniey (a life-long Democrat) the darkies saw a small rat trap filled with large sized mice, and didn’t go for the mite of cheese in it It will be seen that Mr. Tiniey was not in the race at all, and we hope he will take the first opportunity of making affidavit to the fact, and of washing his hands of tho bad company he has been in, and get back into respectable society again. We are willing to forgive the old man if he will do that and promise not to do so any more. The idea of a native of Sonth Carolina and an old Georgian like he is being found hobnobbing with such a set Is preposterous. It can’t stick. Bat the election here yesterday was a very qniet and peaoeable affair. The Rads, didn’t rally two hours before day, as is their custom, and take possession of the polls, and they didn’t rally at any time, or during the whole day. The Democrats had the polls from the begin ning, and made a clean shucking of the whole thing. It no donbt excited the disgust of Mr. Tiniey to see leading Radicals working hard for Col. Simmons all day. And it was fanny. The following is the offioial vote of the city —2173 votes being polled: Thos. J. Simmons 1,698 James Tiniey 475 Simmons’ majority .....1,223 We have unofficial returns from Rutland dis trict of this county, in winch Mr. Tiniey re sides, which give the vote: Simmons 43; Tin- ley 17. Telegrams from Forsyth and Barnesville, re ceived yesterday afternoon, Bhow that the elec tion in Monroe and Pike counties went as it did in Bibb—all one way. At 5 o’clock p. si. at Forsyth 405 votes had been polled—all for Simmons. At Barnesville the vote stood: Simmons 255; Tiniey 66. To sum it all up,Mr. Tiniey Is the worst beat en man that ever aspired to office in Middle Georgia Something of Interest to Fashionable Women. From the New York Times. ] The shoe worn by the young woman of the period is surely one of the most abominable contrivances ever brought into vogue by the caprice of the sex. What need to describe it? Do we not know the absurdity of its construc tion, and how ingeniously it has been designed for the destruction of comfort, and ease, and grace in walking, and also of all semblance to areal woman’s foot? When it first camointo fashion tho ladies wero told by a few sensible men that to put their feet into a machine with a toe like a bird’s biH, and a heel three inches high brought forward under the instep, would insure suffering and deformity. But the dear creatures, in their irresistible way, resented this interference with their pre rogative of self torture and self caricature, and asked, “Would you have us look like dow dies, with broad toes and low heels, and all that ?" “ all that” meaning heels where na ture intended they should be. The plea was unanswerable. But the predicted consequences have come. Ladies’ shoe makers, certain truthful ones, tell us what observation also re veals,that there is hardly a young woman now who regards herself at all fashionable who has not bnnions.fcallosities, corns and enlarged joints; and that tho crop of these ornaments developed within the last four or five years is aston ishing and pitiful. The worst of it is, that there appears to be no prospect of relieif ex cept a tnm in the whirligig of fashion, and that there are no exceptions to the rule of torture and deformity. For the good and sens ible of tho sex immolate themselves with the foolish and the frivolous. No degree of sense, or independence, or stability of character seems to absolve any woman who has the charm of womanhood about her from tho slavery of fash ion, at whatever sacrifice of time, comfort, money or health. Suffrage! right to hold office! Show us first the woman who has independence, and sense, and taste enough to dress attractively, and yet to walk down Fifth avenue wearing an unfashionable bonnet, or in a shoe which does not destroy both her comfort and her her gait. Dead Before Battle.—The SpriDgfield Re publican, the leading Radical organ in New England, echoes the word3 of Wendell Phillips, that the “Radical partyi3 dead.” Listen to it: Tho Republican party is marching to a Big Bethel feast. Too many Butlers, loo many Simon Camerons, too many Mortons and Chandlers, too much stealing and land grabbing have killed it; it is dead before it goe3 into battle. A girl of only 17-years located a farm in Kansas three years ago. The land was perfectly wild and she employed no male help, but her success has been such that on Tuesday la3t she was offered for her farm a sum ten times the amount sho paid for it. Sho refused the offer and says that in five years more she will retire to the East and live on the interest of her pro perty.

WOOTEN I MIGHT’S EMPIRE CITY CIRCUS, MENAGERIE AND BALLOON. ANNOUNCEMENT EXTRAORDINARY! A little less than one year ago, when this grand enterprise was organized In Atlanta, Georgia, many sagacious people predicted failure in its infancy; but the unprecedented suocess crowning it every where it has been, has satisfied them of the error of their judgment. No exhibition on the road has given greater satisfaction, and none have achieved as great a degree of popularity. Neither labor nor money has been spared to make it the most expen sive and choice exhibition on the road, and the almost daily tremendous audiences applauding the feats of the different artists, have served to stimu late the Management to even greater efforts. Thronghont the Middle States and New England, the Dominions of New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island. Cape Breton and Newfound land, there has been bat one voice from the press and public as to the intrinsic merits of this mam moth enterprise. Mesers.
