Tlie Greorgia, Weekl~y Teles^rapli a^nd Jonrnal &d IVIessengo^ Telegraph and Messenger. MACON, NOVEMBER 14 1871. Db. Augustine iBvmo MoAxmne, of Talla dega, Ala., died in Philadelphia, last Monday, at tho age of fifty. Ho left his home some three weeks ago—attended Presbytery at Tus- hegee, and then paid short visits to his children and relatives in Montgomery and Macon, leav ing Macon on the 25th of October, after view ing tho State Fair here, with which he was mnch delighted. He went to Philadelphia to m gratify a professional curiosity in regard to some recent improvements and discoveries in surgical and medical practice, stopping in North Carolina on the way, to visit a son in oollege in that State. In these jonrneyings he probably contracted a cold, which terminated his valuable life very suddenly, after his arrival in Philadelphia. Dr. McAlpino was a skillful and experienced physician, engaged in a very large practice, a ruling elder in the Presbyterian Church for nearly a generation, and a Christian whose cheerful and glowing piety diffused happiness all around him. Every act and word were moulded by deep religious feeling and princi ple, and the whole manner of the man was as guileless and affectionate as a child. How such n man will be missed in his family—missed at the bedside of the sick—missed in the church —the prayer meeting and the social circle— missed everywhere, a living embodiment of the religion of his Saviour, we can sorrowfully imagine. It will be > ead day when the people of Talladoga assembS) to pay the last honors to his venerated corpse. The New Sedative and Its Dangebs.—The London Lancet calls attention to the enormous manufacture of the new sedative drug, chloral. It states that it is sold by tons a week, and quotes a letter from Baron Liebig, affirming that one German chemist manufactures and sells half a ton every week. Of course, no such quantity is used in medicine, and the Lancet seems half afraid that it gets into beer; but, the London Spectator says, there is a simpler explan ation. Taking chloral is the now and popular vice, particularly among women, and is doing at least as much harm os alcohol. The drug is kept in thousands of dressing cases, and those who begin its use often grow so addicted to it that they pass their lives in a sort of contented stupefaction. Chloral drunkards will soon be an admitted variety of the species. The “Miextabt Govzbxob” Stobt.—Else where wo havo referred to the prevalence of sensational stories at Atlanta, just at this time and given our opinion as to the reason therefor. The story of H. G. Cole’s being appointed “Military Governor” caps them all, though, and we are rather surprised at our Atlanta cor respondent’s telegraphing such stuff. 'What he wants and what we want is news, but that is un mitigated bosh. One of Munchausen’s whoppers would be as apropos. Let U3 have some ghost of probability at least in our rumors. Anotheb op Akebman’s Sms.—A Western press dispatch says it is well known in Washing ton that the mistake in the President’s procla mation, by which Marion county, South Caroli na, was put under martial law, instead of Union, occurred through the bad penmanship of Aker- man. The list was sent from the Attorney- General’s office in Akerman’s handwriting. It was satisfactorily deciphered except the word “Union,” which all the experts in handwriting finally dedided was MarioD, and so the procla mation including tho latter county went forth. Not a Doubt of It.—The World is inclined to think that Grant’s martial law outrage in South Carolina was inspired by a desire to keep the monstrous financial rascalities of Scott & Co. “in tho family.” We have not a doubt of it. Whenever you hear from a loyl throat the howl of Ku-klux, be sure that loyl hands have been stealing more greedily than usual, and that the owner fears he is about to be exposed and made to drop out of line. Set that down 03 an axiom. Bbotheb Bbighaxi on ms Tbavels.—A Salt Lake dispatch of the Gtb, says a well known Mormon writes from Beaver, October 31, that, “Brother Brigham arrived here thi3 morning, and after resting five hours, left for St. George, on tho southern border of the Territory. Ho was escorted by twelve mounted men of the Nauvoo Legion. ‘I am told,’ says the writer, ‘that he has paid a final adieu to Salt Lake City. The movement of Brother Brigham is greatly agitating the minds of the people hereabouts.” “Flora MacFlimsy.”—The total value of dry goods thrown on the New York market from 1st of January to date is officially returned a $116,424,615. “Cottons” and “silks” consti tute the big items in the bill, and these, the bachelors say, must be placed to the account of Flora McFlimsey. But Flora may retort: Look at tho heavy items for brandy, champagne, cigars, tobacco and other things, in which she is supposed to have little or no direct personal interest.—N. Y. Express. A colored member of the Texan Legislature was recently seen with a roll of greenbacks in his hand, over which he chuckled so loudly an to attract the attention of a bystander, who said to him, “What are you laughing at, Jim ?” Jim replied, “You see that money ?” “Yes.” “Well, boss, I just got that for my vote. I’se been bought four or five times in my life, but dis is do fust time I ever got de cash myself.”— Cincinnati Commercial. Direct Railway Connection Between Nor folk and New York.—The Vineland Railway has been finished to the Delaware Bay. This brings New York into direct communication with the rich wheat and fruit land of South Jer sey and Delaware. It requires, It is stud, only ton miles of road to be finished in Delaware to give New York a direct connection with Norfolk by way cf tho Delaware and Maryland Railway. Nobth Carolina Cropping.—The Raleigh Sentinel, of Saturday, says that Mr. J. T. Town send, on the Cape Fear, near Fayetteville, raised this year twenty bales of cotton, 400 pounds each, and com and provisions enough to supply him next year, with two plows and about three hands, and this notwithstanding the drouth. Chicago families of three persons receive daily a peck of potatoes, three pounds of pork, one ponad of sugar, one pound of cheese, three loaves of bread, one pound of crackers, one bar of soap, one cabbage and two quarts of onions. First Neqro Nomination.—The following dis patch chronicles the first negro nomination in the Northern States: Rochester, N. Y., November 4.—Frederick Douglass was unanimously nominated this eve ning as the Republican candidate for the As sembly. Gen. Grant is now employing his leisure time in preparing a text book for schools and col leges. It is entitled “Grant’s Speaker, or the Standard American Orator.” Oiders received at tho White House.—N. O. Times. We hope the ladies will come back to a sim ple style of hair dressing, when they remember that most of tho false hair they purchaso is from the head3 of tho Paris Communists, and from all the prisons here and abroad. Silly Sensational Stories. We are rather losing our appetite for this sort of diet. Anything in reason wo do not ob ject to, but baked beans for breakfast, dinner and supper are apt to become a little monoton ous. \V o hear from Atlanta that there are a lot of bummers in that city who spend their time manufacturing all kinds of rumors about Fed eral interference with Georgia affairs, and that some weak kneed Democrats in tho Legislature listen to them too much for their own good. These are all devices of the Radical enemy to paralyze Democratic energy and they should be so understood. A good many of these reports, if traced to their origin, would be fathered upon men who have a personal interest in smothering up certain investigations, the full result of which might prove very disastrous to them. If they can succeed in creating an im pression that any measure is regarded as “revo lutionary” at Washington, they are satisfied, for they know there are some men in the Legis lature who shy at Grant just as a horse blind in one eye does at a stump on the roadside. Just say “military government” or martial law to them, and they are struck all of a heap. They would hardly dare say their souls were their own if they were told Grant and Akerman might construeitas a “revolutionary”utteranco. Such men have no business in the Legislature, but there they are, and the Radical sensation mon gers make their profit out of them accordingly. In decency's name let us have done with all this whimper and trepidation about “martial law.” If Grant thinks it is needed to secure his election, nothing the Legislature can do or omit to do, will stay his hand. Let the repre sentatives of the people of Georgia, elected as freemen to act for freemen, wisely consider what is their duty, and that ascertained, let them do it without regard to what may be thought of it at Washington or anywhere else. There are, of course, considerations of public policy and expediency to be heeded to a certain extent, but the main point is to do only the things that are right, and leave the consequences to care for themselves. We counsel now, as we always have, the practice of the most conspicuous wisdom and moderation, but we demand for justice equal deference. There is a happy me dium between ruinous rashness and ruinous timidity, which can always be found when EougV for by men of brave hearts and honest intentions^ Let the Georgia Legislature place itself on that line and stand firm. Let its motto be paratus etfidelis. Tlie Ancients vs. the Moderns. Harper’s Monthly j which, unlike the Weekly, seems not to be wholly “a journal of [modem] civilization,” in an article upon the character istics of ancient cities, has the following: Integrity was prized as the chief of cicic vir tues. To make profit from a public office was an unpardonable crime. Pericles boasted that he had never increased his moderate inheritance by a single drachma through all his long tenure of office. Aristides was known as the Uncor- rupt. In the purer days of Rome tho great lived in poverty, and Fabricius cooked his own simple fare. Cato was so careful of his honor ihat he weighed and accounted for all the gold he brought from the East. Regains, rather than violate an oath, went back cheerfully to slavery and death, leaving his family dependent on charity. Of all the plunder of wealthy Carthage he took nothing. Horace has painted, in the grandest of his lyrics, the man of oonscious in tegrity, who, intent on some noble aim, defies the rage of tyrants or the clamors of the people. Javenal and Tacitus, in deathless satires, hold up to a degenerate age the rigor of ancient hon esty. Lycurgus was for twelve years the con troller of Athens in its last decline. Millions of revenue passed through his hands, yet every fourth year his accounts were audited, and were found to be rigidly correct. At length, when he was dying, he demanded anew examination. The auditors reviewed his long career; his ac counts were again declared perfectly accurate; they were engraved on marble tablets, and the Athenian controller died happy in the approval of his own conscience and of his native city. Fragments of the marble tablets, it is said, have been discovered at Athens, and might prove in structive for modem financiers. Now let the “Journal of Civilization” give the world a fair sketch of the political morals of the last half of the 19th centmy, and tell us wherein and how much “the march of progress” has raised the standard of political integrity. We heard a grave man yesterday predict that the Presidential canvass of 1872 would hinge upon a grand popular uprising in behalf of common honesty and decency in the publio ad ministration. Bat on a second thought, with a puzzled expression of countenance, he added— “That is to say, if the people havo not absolutely lost all faith in, and hope for honesty in poli ticians.” In these words he illustrated the common idea of the utter, shameless and irredeemable corruption of tho government—of the total ab sence of honor, conscience, rectitude and patri otism which was inaugurated with the Radical era of the public administration. And all this has been the work of a single decade. Ten years ago the Radicals tookpossession of almost all the governments, Stato and National, and the result has been an unfathomable deluge of rascality. It is true, some of the monsters floundering therein are Democrats (so-called); but the Rad icals created the element and set tho example. They have introduced this flood tide of public demoralization. They have so debased the pub lic service, a3 to make it synonimous with cor ruption, and it cannot be truthfully denied that from their President down to the lowest func tionary, all—all are the objects of universal, popular suspicion and distrust. All aro believed to be reaching after irregular and unlawful emoluments, if not involved in more direct breaches of good faith and sound morals. How will this state of things compare with the days of Pericles, “who never increased his mod erate inheritance by a single drachom through all Ins long tenure of office ?” How doos Grant who has amassed a large fortune in two or three years compare with Pericles? Will the storm which is raging against State and municipal corruption reach the great cen tral seat of the foul disorder ? Will it affect the tribe of speculators, gift-takers and pecula tors at Washington ? Will it cleanse the great Federal Augean stables ? That is the question. But as long as the rank malversation and fraud pervading the Federal Government is only a matter of inuendo, joke and scoff by tho pub lic press of both parlies, let us keep still about “human progress and the wonderful advance ment of the age”—because, the main progress is in knavery—a shameless treason to all the obliga tions of patriotism—the injunctions of religion and the rights of the people. The Cotton Futube.—We see the New York Chronicle, reviewing M. Ott Trumpler’s annual 1st October Cotton Circular, has this to say in some remarks thereupon: On a future occasion we shall probably pre sent our views on this point at largo. It is suf ficient for us now to say that Europe will proba bly get about 1,000,000 bales less cotton from us out of the ooming crop; that this large de crease in the supply of American bales repre sents a larger decrease in pounds, on account of the lower average weight of bales (says 375 pounds average next year, against 400 pounds average this year), which will result from the withdrawal of so considerable a proportion of American; and,farther, that at present prices European consumption must for the next twelve months, shows an increase over the year cov ered by the circular. The Chicago Tribune reports that Secretary Boutwell has agreed to recommend that the Government erect tho pnblio buildings at Chicago upon a single square selected for the purpose. The Elections. The Northern and Western elections have resulted in nearly a total smash of the Democ racy. The Stato of New York is lost by twenty to thirty thousand majority, and by almost two-thirds Radical majority in both branches the Legislature. The Western States have gen erally increased their Radical majorities. New Jersey has elected a Democratic Governor, by reason of having put out a very strong candi date, but the Legislature is stated to be Radical. These results apparently open a clear field the Grant Radicals for 1872, but they may pos sibly turn out to be unfortunate in their con sequences to that party. An excess strength is dangerous to a discordant party, while the mere hopelessness of success on the part of the Democrats may induce combina* tions dangerous to Grant. In another view of the matter, these elections are very unfortunate to the Southern people. Construed, as they will be, as a popular en dorsement of the tyrannical and proscriptive policy of the Administration against the South ern whites, we may expect to see that policy carried out with a bolder and more relentless hand. We attribute these sweeping defeats to the scandalous frauds of "Tammany Hall, which very unjustly have brought odium on the Dem ocratic name from Maine to Texas. It is true, Tammany has stolen only a few millions, while Radicalism has piled up publio plunder by the hundred millions; but in the North and West, Democracy had no strength against tho odium of its anti-war policy, except as a party pledged to reform and honest administration. When, therefore, the strongest association of these Reformers stood convicted before the world as mere pnblic robbers, the moral strength of the whole Democratic organization was totally pros trated for a time, and it fell an easy victim to the jeers and reproaches of its enemies. A New Pyramid. Hodge, Ballocb, Forbes, Stokes, Evans, and Bullock—all Radicals, and all first-class devel opers, are tho leading names added to the crim inal calendar of the country within the past month. Going back a little farther, we encoun ter “Honest” Tom Murphy, the New York col- lector, Hon. R. R. Butler, of Tennessee, Hon Mr. Whittemore, of South Carolina, and many otheis whose names came and went so thick and fast that we cannot remember them. All these patriots were members of the Radical party, and some of them were high and mighty makers of the laws they were so fond of violating. The St. Louis Republican suggests that the admin, istration organs go back through their files for a year, collect all these names, and construct them into a Radical “pyramid.” It would be an interesting and instructive edifice; there would be members of Congress, Governors of States, customs collectors, internal revenue col lectors, State claim agents, pension agents, pay masters, special treasury agents, freedinen’s bureau agents, each contributing a block to the common structure, reared as a monument to tho loyal party of the country. Judge Warner for Governor. Several of the Democratic papers are propos ing Judge Hiram Warner, of the Supreme Bench, for Governor of Georgia. If Judge Warner would accept the nomination, we have no doubt it would bo satisfactory to the people. They would then be sure of an able and an honest man in the Executive chair. Judge Warner would fear no responsibility in carry ing out his convictions of pnblic duty, and is one who could never be driven beyond the line of true public welfare. In the way of integrity he is an ancient Roman, and Rings would stand small chance while he held the baton. The Savannah Republican. The telegrams yesterday announced that our late copartner, Colonel Wm. A. Reid, had pur chased the Savannah Republican. We welcome him back to newspaper life, and trust that under his auspices the Republican will regain its ancient financial status. Thirty years ago the Republican, under the management of Locke, was a great property, and there is no reason why it should not be so again. Savannah has more than twice the population and business she had at that time, and can handsomely sustain her present newspaper press. “No Bleeding Martyr, bnt a Spavined Rogue.” The World has the best notice decidedly that we have seen of the recent flight of the brigand, Bullock. It is such good reading that we must print some of it anyhow. Says the World: His resignation is simply a confession of juilt, and the fullness of that confession maybe setter understood when it is known that while his resignation bears date as if in Georgia he is himself at this time and has for some days been in this city of New York. Not only has ho re signed his office to forestall impeachment, but actually fled the State as if conscious that even as the private person to which he has reduced himself, the ordinary process of the court might still be applicable to his case. Could a pismire malefactor be compared to one of mighty mold, this fellow is Catiline over again, not only avoiding the Senate house, but taking to flight from the city. The envenomed temper in which he leaves Georgia behind him is seen in the most villain ous traduction with which ho seeks to bring anarchy, distress and oppression once more upon that ill-used State. According to his story, Georgia intends, by her own unaided strength, no doubt, to overturn the whole United States; and to this he pathetically adds that if the office he has just vacated should be filled by ono of his persecutors, the friends and supporters of the General Government would have no one to invoke the Federal aid in their behalf, and would be “handed over without mercy to the assaults of their enemies.” The absurdity of Georgia annihilating the United States Govern ment single-handed is too great for serions con sideration, and in what is said of the friends of the administartion suffering from having no Governor to call for help on their behalf, how how comes it, if there is reported oppression, that Governor Bullock himself never besought that aid? The truth is that there is no such violence, actual or meditated, as is hero alleged. Not one thought in a hundred is given in Geor gia to se cession, constitutional amendments, or any other such obsolete topic of Federal politics. The outrageous pecuniary losses of the people, tho weight of their taxes, tho semi-dissolution of the bonds of society by the license given to crime by this fugitive Governor, whoso last official act almost was to pardon a most brutal murderer just about to be hanged—these and other local matters have the publio attention in that State. Upon these issues and none other was Governor Bullock to have been arraigned, and for fearbf any trial upon them abiit, evasit, erupit, he has cast down his broken trunchepn and skurried off, no bleedingmartyr but simply spavined rogue.—If. Y. World. The figures showing the receipt and export of produce at New York for the first ten months of 1871, compared with the corresponding term of preceding years, are published. Some of the loading items among receipts are as follows: Flour, 3,001,000 barrels, against 3,234,C37 barrels last year; wheat, 21,847,876 bushels, against 18,340,024 bushels last year; corn, 23,- 775,461 bushels, against 7,525,174 last year; rosin, 412,142 barrels, against 450,507 lost year; pork; 159,841 packages, against 94,560 last year; cheese, 1,263,8S3.packages, against 1,227,867 last year; lard, 94,186 tierces and barrels, against 62,200last year; whisky, 140,003 barrels, against 164,788 last'year. Expor.sbeara steady general relation to receipts as above given. The export of tobacco, crude, is 101,500 packages, against 78,432 last year At a wedding reception tbe other evening, a young lady unfortunately fainted. Grand con fusion, of course, and an immediate rush of four anxious admirers to remove the debris. In their sonfasion they attempted to convey the young lady up stairs feet foremost, whereat, her sense of propriety being strong, Abe imme diately “came to.”—If. T. Evening Mail. THE GEORGIA PRESS. Under tho head, “Effects of the Railroad Al ready,” the Dahionega Signal, of last Tuesday, says: '■ A Mrs. Butler, of this county, recently gave birth to three children, all of which occurred since this county gave a majority vote in favor of tho narrow gauge being built from Gaines ville to Dahionega. Now, you men who are op posed to railroads, dry np. The Atlanta Sun says that the sheriff of Lee county has been there hunting for the murderer Page, Radical member of the Legislature from that county, but that Page has dodged him and is hiding snugly somewhere. The Sun also says that it is charged around, “that the friends of ex-Govemor Bro wn are ma nipulating to havo suoh a man as they like, chosen to fill Bullock’s unexpired term, and then leave Brown- to succeed at the regular election next fall.” We quote thi3 additional item from the Sun: Death of a Stbangee.—Mr. M. O. Harvey, of Hopewell, Muskingum county, Ohio, died at the Kimball House yesterday, after an illness of several days. Mr. H. was a young man of about thirty years of age; had left home to travel for the benefit of his health; had been in Florida, but finding no improvement in his health, came to Atlanta, where a sudden attack of bilious fever prostrated him. Gone Gluisiebing.—The Newnan Herald, of the 3d, has a communication from Grantville about the gold mines and tho gold fever which, not long since, were all the rage in that vicini ty. It says that for a time speculation ran high, and money in largo sum3 was invested, machint ery erected, pits sunk and an immense amoun, of muscle expended—digging, sweating, sitting- racking, drying—but now the bubble has burst. The negroes have gone back to their cot ton patches; bankrupts hunting for nuggets, have departed disconsolate, and the great iron hammers are as still as the rocks in the ground they were erected to beat to powder, We find the following items in the Griffin Middle Georgian, of yesterday: Singulab Case.—About three months since a little son of our esteemed friend, F. A. Free man, of SpaldiBg county, without any symp toms of pain, and apparently instantaneously, lost the uso of his lower limb3, and has since, notwithstanding the efforts of his medical at tendants, been entirely unable to move himself. Has never complained of pain or other uneasi ness. Is now endeavoring to accommodate himself to.his misfortune by learning to drag himself along with his hands. A Rehabkable Lady.—Mrs. Elizabeth Still well, of Spalding county, on the 3d of this month, entered upon tho ninety-ninth year of her age. In the year 1796, she was received into the Methodist Church by the Rev. William Gaz away, of North Carolina, this making her, as wo believe, the oldest Methodist in America. Mrs. Stillwell is still in the enjoyment of excellent health, weighs 200 pounds, and retains in a re markable degree tho facalties of sight, hearing and memory. She is quite active and gives her personal attention to domestic matters. It is truly interesting to hear this mother in Israel recount her recollections of the revolutionary war, during that memorable time a resident of South Caroli na. She is a living witness of tho cruelties of Tarl- ton and Rawdon, and the patriotism of Marion. Mrs. Stillwell resides with her son, John Still well, a prominent merchant of Griffin. Tho Star of yesterday says the Board of Di- rectois of the Griffin, Madison and Monticello Railroad held an extra meeting in Griffin on Saturday. The consultation was harmonious, and the results highly satisfactory. The Board decided to change the gauge of the road to the custom ary gauge in Georgia, and making it a first-class road in every respect; so that we shall hear no more monthings about “ narrow gauge.” They also decided to press tho work with the utmost vigor consistent with the resources of the Com pany. Major Jones has been selected as chief engineer and superintendent of construction. Over three hundred hands, and more than one hundred mules and carts aro now• activoly at work, and the grading is being rapidly accom plished. We find these items in the Atlanta Constitu tion, of yesterday: Imfobtant Law Suit.—A bill was sanctioned on yesterday by Judge Parrott, enjoining the sale of the Cherokee, formerly Carteravillo and Van Wert Railroad. The parties are Overton & Lewis, complainants, against H. L Kimball & Co., et al., defendants. It is alleged and charged that Rufus B. Bullock and Henry Clews were partners of tbe firm of H. I. Kimball & Co., and also stockholders in the Georgia Railway Contracting Company. The transfer of the bonds of the Cherokee Railroad Company is also enjoined. Jackson, Lawton & Bassinger, and Henry Jackson & Bro., Solicitois for complainants. Outbage on the Geobg.a Railboad.—Yester day morning as tho way freight train on the Georgia road was coming in, some one at or near the out at Hardee, two and a half miles from this city, fired at the train, hitting Mr. William Hamilton of Stone Mountain, son of Colonel H. N. Hamilton, tho worthy track raiser, in the right leg, inflicting a severe flesh wound. We learn that Mr. Hamilton was sit ting on a hand car in an open car with several others. The report of the gun was heard, and soon after Mr. Hamilton was found faintiDg from loss of blood. The ball struck him in the right leg just below the thigh. Tho wounded man was conveyed to Mrs. L. A. Smith’s board ing house on Ivy street, whero Dr. W. G. Owens extracted the ball and rendered him medical service promptly. Death of Mbs. J. H. Lumpkin.—Wo regrert to learn of the death yesterday morning, nine o’clock, at Athoas, of Mrs. Callio Lumpkin, consort of tho late Chief Justice Joseph Henry Lumpkin. She was about 65 years of age, revered and honored by all who knew her. Her end was peace. Mrs. Lumpkin was the mother of our News Editor, Colonel J. T. Lumpkin, who has been absent for a week watching by her beside. We deeply sympathize with him in his irreparable loss. Fibe.—Last night between 11 and 12 o’olock, fire broke out in the old negro danco house, on Line street, in rear of McBride & Smith’s carnage shop. We behove it was used as s lime house. That and several negro huts ad joining were destroyed. The fire raged with groat fierceness for nearly half an hour. The engines were slow in getting to work, but when they did thep worked well. Loss small. Origin unknown. Mr. S. B. Leak, of Griffin, who took the pre mium at the Columbus Fair, raised 4574 bushels of sweet potatoes on ono acre of ground. A “lively little fight between two white men on McIntosh street,” was tho only local itam re ported in the Augusta papers of Tuesday. Mr. R. B. Baxter, of Hanoock county, has a pointer dog that cost 40 pounds sterling in Eng land a short time since. N. B.—Grant needn’t expect this pup as a present. Tho Sparta Times says a load of cotton passed through the streets of Sparta, on Sunday last, en route for Augusta, Ga. We understand that it was the property of a planter living in Pat- nam county, who, prefers to ship his cotton in wagons, rather than have it carried by railroad. The Savannah Republican, of Taesday, says tho steamship General Barnes, which arrived at that port Monday evening, brought 03 deck aassenger3 a large number of Swedish and Eng lish immigrants, the former composed of men, women and children, destined for Florida, at the points Tallahassee, Melonville, and other locations in tbe Flower State. The othors are English imigrants, and are destined for Madi son, Georgia. There is now at Mellonville, Florida, a largo colony of Swedes who arrived last fall. Tho Sparta Times has information from San Francisco of the disappearance from that city on October 10th, of Mr. Barnard Nye, who was resident of Sparta about fifteen years ago, and well known in thaf section. He had been miss ing five days when the Times’ informant wrote, and had considerable money with him. Letters for Shaper Birge, Washington county, Sallie E. Hammond, Milledgeville, James L. Reid, Eatonton, and James R. Frazier, Eufaula, are held for postage in the Savannah office. The United States District Court will meet at Savannah, next Tuesday. The docket is a very heavy one, and among the cases to be tried are those of Robb, tbe Savannah Collector, and that alleged embezzler, the headless Kryzanowaki. We find the following in the Southern Chris tian Advocate of yesterday: ing that they could not, at that time^and during | FINANCIAL AND the exoitements and interruptions of the Com' menoement, do all the work they deemed essen tial to giving tho institution the highest effi ciency, appointed a meeting for 1st November, instant.
