As-ault with Intent to Kill by a
Woman —Chronicle and Sentinel: Among
the true bilia touud by the grand jury of
Burke county last wfe'ek was one against
Airs. Alary E M-iCollooghe, who is charged
with an assault with intent to murder.
The person wnom she is charged with
assaulting is her sister-in-law, Mrs.
Charles MsCoiiough*. It is said that on
last Sunday week, at Bar Camp Church,
in Burke county, the defendant drew a
razor cn her sieter-in-law and made a
violent assault upon ber. The cause of
the diffiiuliy, it is understood, was tale
bearing. Airs. McCulloughs was indicted
in Burke Superior Court and a true bill
returned. Her husband was a member
of the grand jury, but did rot serve in
tbit case.
The Athens Watchman sajt: Tho two

Slaughtering the Grass.—Caihbert
Appeal: Our farmers have bad a fine
time tot killing grass the last ten days,
and well indued bare thjy improved the
opportunity. Cotton is small and needs
warmer nig bis and mornings than we are
now having. Cu’hbert has received 8.164
bales of cotton this season.
A Globious Rsviyal.—Tim Clipper
says thirty nine persons have joined tne
two churches m Thomson at tne revival
which has been going on there for eev ral
days, and tho McDuffie Journal in giviDg
this news says that brotherly feeling per
vades both churches, and it is to be hoped
no eectarira feeling will ever be sprung
again. Many converts are from the ranks
of the worst cion. Profane swearing,
hitherto eo much indulged in, is now
rare.
Terridly Severs I’aiurpic. — The
Dawson Journal tbns ventilates the Jone9
trial:
Tho fact that one of Jo sea’ bonds is
worthless and the other Bcriouely ques
tioned as to its legality and binding effect
is not at all creditable to Governor Smith.
Thu case presents a Ie3son to tbe peo
ple of Georgia that they should eorlously
Htudy nod remember. The corrupt ns •
of offioial position is getting a little too
frequent of late. A stop should be put
to it by the people, if possible. We do
not know t .at wo can enggest a remedy
for the evil, but think we shall be, here
after, a strictly one term man as to all
offices of trust. If a man is kept in office
too long he is apt to learn to steal. Bet
ter turn him out and overtaul him at the
end of every term. We do not wish to
see our State House bioome a college for
the education of thieves. Wo do not
wish to see any more big fees exacted for
the performance of cfficial duty already
paid for by tbe people. We do not wish
to sen any more spoony youths careering
orer E irope in tbe track of a prima donna
on money made by' tho prostitution of
public office for private gain. We do
not wi^h to see again two hundred and
fifty thousand dollars and imcompetence
in charge of the finances of the State.
There bave been abont one handled

After Ham.—Tho Warrenton Clipper
thus pitches into oar lively, Gainesville
friend:
Ham, of the Giinasvills Eagle, says
that, if we had ths making of a dog wo
would pat tbe tail on the front end.
Of coarse, and ws would pat tho enont of
a hog on tbe Ham end, bo that our con
temporary oould penetrate the merits of a

A Good Jury.—Dawson Journal: T
relloounty has ga intelligent grand ja r ?
this week. If they fail to do their duty
it will not be Jodgo Hood’s failt. H ,s
charge cn Monday, to that body was one
of the ablest wo ever heard.
Drouth.—Tho Journal says: We bave
sot bad a rain—wo mean a season—here
in over three weeks. Tho ground is very
dry, and if rains do not fall eoon young
plants will 6nffer. At this writing there
is sot a cloud to be seen, and tho Indica

Sal* or Cattle in Coffee County.—
Hiwkmrivilio Dispatch: In a recent di
vision of a large herd oE cattle in Coffee
county, forty head of beef steers were
sold to tho highest bidder for four hun
dred dollars, and were bonght by Mr.
George Wilcox. Stock cattle breaght
seven dollars per head.
Ratio Rise in Wool.—The same paper
says: Toe advance in wool is unpre
cedented since the epiing of 1871. Last
week we quoted the price in this market
at 23} cents, with an upward tendency.
Sinde then prices have advanced cveiy
day, and Hawkinsville merchants were
offering 28 cents perponnd on Tuesday,
and we would not bs surprised to see
29 cents effered within the next thirty-
six hoars. The price may reach thirty
cents and go beyond that beforo our next
issue. The exoitoment and the advance
havo come at the right time, a3 only a
very little wool has yet been sold.
Pulaski county haB just added five

Gubernatorial—Tho editor of the
Albany, Naps sinco bis rstnrn from the
press convention thus speculates upon
the next election for Governor:
We learn that the mountains monrn
for Gartrell to lead; and that along the
Eastern bo.der of the State, from lisburn
to Biofamoad, ins same is perched upon
every house-top. That Governor Col-
quill’s friends stand firm, and propose to
honor him with re-election. They claim
for him Sjuih Georgia, Middle Georgia,
Atlanta and thoaeands in tho mountains.
Ex-Govdraor Milt Smith was on hand,
and weh.-ard some very strong com
ments in favor of piecing him be
fore thejjeopla for re-election. General
Too mbs n otten spoken of in connection
with this r-oe. tie is reported as sajiDg
it the people wnt him he will ran for
them, not, however, through a convec

Took|ba often aajs things and gets sorry
for it. Captain Tote Smith is mentioned,
and if he would oocssnt to make tbe rao»,
his solid.*Bd consistent reoord would af.
ford.him strength to carry weight in

Independent Seventh, need not be con

Hop. GusTAvua J.Obb.—Albany Mtme:
This distinguished gentleman will de
liver the annual literary address before
tbe pupils ot the Albany Male High
school at tho close of the present session
on hiss 20th proximo. His subject will
be “fee school system of Georgia and the
best method of sustaining it.” The ad
dress will, no doubt, be entertaining and
instructive^
Rev. S. S. Swmt.—Jesup Sentinel: It
was onr privilege to bear a fine eermon
from the above named gentleman on
Sunday night. Mr. Sweet is well known
se a correspondent of the Savannah Sews,
under the signature of “Jack Plane.” It
is hoped he will favor us with another

Carrying the "War into Africa.—
Plebian, a correspondent of the Upson
Enterprise, wants the Legislature to deal
thnsly with the lawyers:
••First, I insist that they should be re
quired to give bond with good security
for tbe faithful discharge of their duties,
so that when they collect peoples’ money
people can get it oat of them.
* “Second, if a lawyer comes into court
without having hiB case ready for trial,
that the cose be dismissed, and tho law
yer mulched with coats and damages.
“Third, That if a lawyer makes a mo
tion for a naw trial in criminal cases, and
it is refused, and he carries it to the Su
preme court, that said court shall be au
thorized to decide from the record wheth
er the attorney or his client should not
indemnify the county from which the
case came, for all damages it has sustain
ed by said motion.
“Fourth, That the lawyers shan’t rule

The Jasper Centennial.—Under the
instructions of the committee General H.
C. Wayne, G. B. Prichard and M. J. Sol
omons bave issued a stirring addross to
tbe people of Savannah, calling npon
them to celebrate appropriately the death
of the gallant Jasper cn th6 9.b of Ooto-
ber, 1879. Ii is designed to do this with
tne total and pomp commensnrate with
the growth and importance of Georgia’s
obief seaport, and to coniecra.e anew the
memory of tbe bravo man who then died
la defense of American liberty. The ad
dress says:
Eight thousand dollars is the maximum
estimate for the celebration, and cannot
sn annual commerce and trade of $59,-
000,000 meet this expenditure ? True it
is that the cotton trade is ra the hands
principally of non-residents. Bat these
foreign gentlemen, whether present or
absent; have ever shown tnemstlves lib
eral in assisting the citizens in their pub
lic demonstrations, end on snch an occa
sion as the ono proposed will, without
donbt, open wide their parse sfringe.
What reasonable gronnd, therefore, re
mains for not rendering to the reputation
of Savannah the meed of justice [she is
entitled to?
Drowned.—A special to the News,
dated Brunswick, Georgia, May 29.h,
rays Captain John Hubbard and the sec
ond mate of the brig Aqueduot, loading
at Satilla Mills, were drowned la3t Sun
day by the capsizing ot a small boat,
while on their way to Cumberland Island
from the Satilla river. The boat was
found at Floyd shoals bottom up, and
tbe body Vif the second ma’te was recov
ered. Captain Hubbard’s body will prob
ably be found to-day. The boat and
body were found by the tug boat Staples
yesterday.
Monster Oal Catiured.—The Sun
eaye:
Friday night last Mr. Oliver Perkins,
(the identical original “Perkins, here’s
your mule” man), living near 8eale,
caught a monster owl in a trap made of
boards. Tbe trap was baited with the
remains of a hen which the owl had
caught and partially devoured the night
before. It measured four feet three
inches from tip to tip of wings.
Good Advice.—Columbus Times: We
see in many ot our exchanges that plant
ers are short of labor, not because they
have not their usual forces, but because
they have planted mere largely than
usual, relying on the doubtful policy of
hiring help along through the chopping
season as they may need it. In this
country, where the hired labor is nlmost
entirely negro labor, and where tbe liv
ing of the negro is entirely dependent
open bis work on the farm, tho wisdom
of snch a policy on tho part of the plant
ers may be questioned; for aside from
the uncertainty of getting labor when it
is most needed, the result of tho system
would be to throw large numbers of
tramping farm hands on the community
to live by petty depredations or by work
as might be most convenient to them.
It would seem to Q3 that the safer and
more humane policy would be to hire for
the year tbe force needed, and to pitob
crops according to the desired regular
force.

miles from Augusta. Two of these were

A Prosperous Newspaper.—The
Gainesville Eagle thus felioitates itself:
With the largest circulation, with two
exceptions, of any outside ot the five lar
gest cities in the State, the official adver
tising of six counties and the city of
Gainesville, and a flattering patronage
from the commercial community that has
crowded our advertising columns, even
to the filling of the last spare inch, to say
nothing of the warm commendation of
ftiendaafhomo and abroad, we feel that
»e have much for which to be thankful,
little to regret, and every reason to be in
a good humor with ouraelvea and the
balance of mankind.
Fora items of news frem the Chronicle
and Cor.ililulionalisl:
Chili Wheat.—We saw yesterday four
heads of wheat grown from eeed obtained
from Chili by Mr. Gerge R. Clayton, of
Greensboro, Ga. The grain was planted
tbe day before Christmas and remained
il*the ground nntil February, when it
came np. It'S now shoulder bigb, and
is said to EnrpaES any. wheat ever seen in
that section. We understand that Mr.
Clayton has been effered twenty dollars a
bnshel for the crop. He proposes *o sell
the seed at one dollar and a half per
qnart.
Kaolin.—An <x\eneive deposit of Kao
lin has been diECOvered in this connty
along the lino of tbe Central Railroad,
and a neat frame depot has been erected
near Butler’s Creek, to receive the
barrels ol the earthy product placed
there for shipment.
The same paper blandly remarks that
tho Amerions Republican has been en

by crediting the articles dipped from

Rev. Alexander Means, LL.D., will

Oar confrere, C. H. C. Willingham,
has been pnt in nomination for onr next
Governor by tbe North Georgian, nolens
volens.
Wonder if onr brother will kick if the

Another Dead Town.—Sumter Re
publican: Co). Jones, in his interesting
work, “Dead Towns of Georgia,” left out
one of considerable importance. In the
piomer days of our country, the town of
Danville, Eituated at the ferry of the Ma
con and Albaey stage road, was an active
trading point, doing a large and lucrative
business. It had eight or ten stores and
a good hotel, or tavern as they were
called in those times. Tbe Loudens, Jas.
and Elijah Butts, and Wm. Bonaldson,
brother of the lamented Andrew Bonald-
eon, of car city, were among tbe citizens
of the then thriving place. It was here
the Batts brothers bailt and branched the
steamer “Magnolia,” which made several
successful trips, but was afterwards sold,
os it wae too large a craft for the Flint.
Americus was then in its infancy, and
goods were sold to us from that active
point. Danville was a characteristic
Georgia town, and the fame of ber lively
Saturdays have come down even to car
day. Oa these occasions the little mart
presented a scene which only tho genius
of a Longstreet could paint. Cockfight-
rag, horse swapping, raciog, free fights
and cheap whisky conspired to make
things lively, and at the close of one of
these memorable days, our historian tells
ns, many would be the aching head’*,
bleeding noses, bruised ebins end empty
pookete. But the glory ot Danvilla is
gone—railroads oa either sido of her,
sapped her very life’s blood, and to-day
her only honor is being the borne of Col.
Lit Spivey, who is the sole denizen of
this once populous village.
The Growing Caors—The reports
from every part of the State concerning
tho crops of corn, cotton, email grain
and vegetables are very encouraging,
though rain is beginning to be needed
very generally. The farmers and freed-
men are hard at woik, and ail that is
needed now is tbe later rain, and the
blessing of tbe Lord of the harvest. Let
all good men ptay for this boon.

EDITORIAL COliKESI’OXDESCE.
Washington, May 2, 1879.
SHORT RATIO S
As to news, to-day Hayea’ veto of the leg
islative bill will come along in an hour or eo
ami that will hkoi\ stir the puddle at least
into a nppio. Bat there is small prospect of
anything like a row in the House, or even a
smart donate. Gaifitld and riobeson, on the
ite^aoucin sido uo away, Frye seems suffer
ing from au attack of lrzmese, as latterly he
sold m opens his mouth. Of course it would
deught old Conger immensely to have the
mouopoly of musing all the fuss, but bis
comrades can’t stand everything a"d would
revolt at (hat. Bo it appears to me the veto
will not make muon ot a stir and will be sent
to a committee with little ado. Of course
there win be a motion to pass the bill over
the veto which all the Democrats and most
or the Greenbutors will favor and all the
Radicals oppose.
There are some people here ill-natured
enough to suggest that as Messrs. Felton
and epeerowe their election to Radical votes,
they onght to join that party in holding np
Hayes’ han-to in this matter. Common grat
itude, if nothing olee, they nrge, would seem
t0 8Dggeet euohaoourse. I suppose, how
ever, that Mr Speer having, with Mr. Ste
phens’ aid, saved the country from revolu
tion, feels that he has done quite enough for
it and will be disposed to rest on his laurels.
How sweet the reflection most be that he
bas bold th s great country up by tbe tail, ae
it were, and swung it oloar of that deep
abyss on whoso verge it tumbled : and how
magnanimous in him to allow another the
credit of n&ving aided him in iho God-like
woikl
WaATSIXT?
Hayes’ veto will bring matters to a crisis
one way or another. I predict, this morning,
that the end will be passage of the appropri
ation bills without the riders. See if events
do not vindicate tho cuireetness of my
prophecy I cannot see any other result,
consistent with a due regard for the fatnre
of tne Democratic party. If it bas been de
termined that that party has outlived its
usefulness and cumbers tbe ground, then
this issue and time are both about as pre-
pitions ae could be deeired to make an end
of it But I do not think the managers are
ready for any such result, and therefore will
not prooeed deliberately to bring it about.
It will be a sorry sight io see the Demooraoy
disagreeing among themselves to sucu an
extent ae to give the Radicals the credit of
passing the appropriation bills, but even
that BtrikeB me as preferable to seeing them
c remit suicide by defeating those bills with
out securing a single goad result as an tff-
set. Tbe Radicals all over the country are
hoping and praying with great fervor for an
unusual crop of Dem.cralio blunders this
season, bat certainly we are not under no
obligation to see that their prayers are an
swered.
I stopped after finishing the above sen
tence to go into tbe Ho jse and hear tho veto
message read. It has jaet been finished
amid great applause from tbe Radicals and
tne vote is now being taken on passing tho
i.i>l over the veto. Of coarse it will fail.
As I left the Hall I heard the Felton vote
aye, and I presume tbe delegation will bs
solid oa uw* ii~. an * rQ present this
morning. I think. Hr. Hammond
tamed Lom Georgia and Mr. Stephens snf-
ficently recovered fiom his late sickness to
arswer his name. I judge the next step
will be a joint cancuB to determine fatnre
action. It will, from ail aoconnU, be a live
ly one, and develops much bnil-headedness,
if there is each a word. The ohin mns.o
goes witbont saying It maj be held to
night, as there la noseesira to-morrow and
members can sit np as late ae they like and
sleep all next day witbont masingavote
and having the fact recorded in the Record
for the benefit and to the iutenia satisfac
tion of the other fellow at heme who ii

GT .TIB RIGHTS
Got a blto's eye in tne passage of the
National Q oar an tine billon Taeaday. Tne
foremost men to gl?o it were from the
South, and its stoniest defenders from Mas
sachusetts and the Radio 1 party. Necessi
ty wag plead in excuse for the extraordinary
powers ii gives ths Federal Government,
especially tne Pretidont, at the tkpenee of
the States. The bill give* a board of hea.th
located at Washington, authority to look into
tho municipal iff airs of a State in what may
resuit in a very cisagteeable fashion There
n eems to me many eeri.ug objections to this
ill and more to the mraner in which it was
pushed through uongre*.-. Its object pro
fessedly is to promote the pnblio health, but
in doing so it will pretty rarely have tbe ef
fect to Southern communitioe more helpless
than they now are iu the presenoe of epe-
demios This is bad, certainly, for they
can’t always be calling on Hercules without
putting their shoulders to the wheel. One
good feature of the bill is, that Us operations
a, e limited four years. Of coarte it creates
a lot of new offices winch tbe Radicals will
fee apt to captoro.
- the omo tussle
Next fall bida fair to be one of the sharp -
est in the annais of that State Foster,
Radical nominee for Governor, is a very
strong oandinate and will make it lively for
whoever opposes him. He came to the
House for many years from a district having
a Democratic mijority and waa only battou
last year by the diatri t being made so
stron ly against him that ha couldn’t over
come the ms j ority. He is rich, liberal, plau
sible and jolly Therefore he is popular,
psrsoLally, to start with, and will not spare
time or mon6y to enforce his party’s strength.
He is a good speaker too, shrewd and sharp
and capable of any amount of hard work.
8trange to Bay he is not a lawyer His busi
ness is general merchandise with incidental
banking and money lending at whloh he baa
been very sncceeefal. When in Uongress he
was regarded as among the most liberal ele
ment of bis party and aa having the ran of
the White House. His nomination U a
Haves’ viotory and a blow at the Grant
boom. Ohio Democrats say Gen. Americas
Yespacias Rice, one leg ted Federal officer
and cx-M. G., can beat him. but I do not
hear of any heavy batting on the result.
Gen. Bice onght to make a splendid ran, as,
in addition to hiiwarreoord, he is the author
of the pension bill pissed by the last Oen-
greeB, bnt here la Uncle Dick Bishop, tbe
present Governor pining for an endorsement
and they say he is Tilden’e mra and can get
a “ bar’i of money” to grease the machine
with. Then there ii discord in the camp on
the money question, which hurts worse than
everything el;e.
Tbe Radicals are a mit on that and all
other questions. They have more money
and all the Hayes’ patronage to boot, and in
short nearly ereiy advantage. It will be
h jt work and no mistake, and as the election,
does not come off until October,- whiskey
and money will have a tong flow. If Jndgo
Ihutman will ran, Foster will continue to
keep store If he wont, then don’t yon bet
a cent on the result. A. W. B.

of a great philanthrope enterprise in the
shapo of a nniverrity eo munificently en
dowed that it will fariiieh tho highest ednea-
tio-i at an extra rely low prioe. It was is a
preliminary step to this enterprise that Mr.
Stewart purchased tbe Garden city estate,
ou Long Island, itself abont as largo aa
Manhattan Island, and all the extensive im~
p.ovemeuts are designod only to bo the
snrronndings of a great colleg'ato system.
The magnific.nt cathedra), ra whose crypt the
merchant’s bonos were expected to rest, ii,
or coarse, to be the architectural mo mmoat
of uardsn City, and around it will be group
ed the episcopal residence, a male college,
female college and divinity school. The
two main ochego buildings will be on a vast
scale, each with a frontage of 275 feet, and
containing three hundred private and single
bed rooms forstudente, which, together with
the dormitories, will accommodate five hun
dred students wi'hin each building. The
endowment is so generous that Judge Hit-
ton, who is working out Mr. Stewart’s ideas,
has decided that the entire exponse of a
student, malo or remale, for board, wash
ing, attendance and tuition, shall not exceed
$3U‘J per co legiata year of forty weeke,
while, besi.e thi8, there wilPbe offered every
year as many free scholarships as possible.
The institutions, a though endowed by the
esta o of an Rpisaopalian family, will bo
non-sectarian in character, and the intention
is to mike the instmetion they furnish of
the higuest character. The first orick in the
male c .liege was laid yesterday morning,
and tho contract requires the building to be
under roof by next January, and finished
and ready for occupancy the following Sep
tember, ths other buildings to be completed
a year later. The development of this great
scheme will be watched with mte eat.

Jacksonville, Fla., May 31.—The de

road Company, end others, and the case
of J. Fred Stractte and others against
the Florida Oentral and Jacksonville,
Pensacola and Mobile Railroad Company,
and others, which are tried together, has
just been delivered. The Judge holds
that the lien of the so-called Dutch bond
holders is a prior lien to that of tho
North Carolina Company, whoso funds
were fraudulently invested in the Florida
roads, and dismisses the North Carolina
company’s bills. He grants the lien in
favor of tbe Datch bondholders, and
against the Florida Central for $197,000
and interest for about nine years; against
the Jacksonville, Pensacola and Mobile
for abont $275,000, with like interest.
From this decision the North Carolina
company end the Florida Central and
Jacksonville, Pensacola and Mobile com

peals and decrees ordering the sale of the
roads are in preparation. Tho rights of
J. Gibbs to the road from Quincy to
Chattahoochee, twenty-five miles, are re
served for further investigation.
Washington, May 31.—At a joint
meeting of the committee of the Senato
and House Democratic cancnssea it was
decided to recommend that the Army
Appropriation bill be passed in usual form
making appropriations for tho entire
year, but with the proviso that no moneys
so appropriated shall be used for em
ploying tho army for police purposes at
the polls. Also that the legislative bill b8
passed in like manner, bnt omitting pro
visions for supervisors of elections and
deputy marshals. Also that clauses in
relation to the repeal of the test oath and
notification of the jury system bo passed
a3 a separate bill.
Washington, May 31.—Two advisory
committees of the House and Senate
Democratic cancnssea held a joint meet
ing to-day and reached substantially a
unanimous agreement as to tbe course of
action that should be adopted by the
dominant party with regard to tho ap
propriation bills. After a very full in
terctiange of views, especially a minute
examination of the President’s veto mes
sages, in connection with sundry existing
statues prohibiting interference by the
army with elections, it was decided to
recommend the immediate passage cf
the bill making the usual appropriation
for the support of the army throughout
the next fiscal year, but containing a pro
viso that no poition of the money therein
appropriated sball be used for the pay,
transportaMch, equipment or sub3istenoe
of any troop3 used for police purposes,
to keep the peace at tbe polls
It was farther decided to reosmmend
the passage of the legislative, executive
and judicial appropriation bill in 'sub
stantially the same terms as lass year’s
bill, and for the same amount?, except
that they shall be more minutely specifi
ed ; and except, also, that it shall not
make any provision for the pay of super
visors or deputy marshals of elections.
Tho new bill will, however, contain a
clause providing that no effieer shall be
appointed or obligation incurred for any
objeot.
for which specific appropriation shall not
have been made by Congress. This
clause is already on the statute book,
with the exception of the words, ‘ or
obligation incurred,” and there is also a
law existing which prohibits the diver
sion of any appropriation to purposes
other than that for which it has been
speoifically made. The committees next
agreed to recommend the passage of a
separate measure, embodying those sec
tions of the vetoed appropriation bills
which provide for amendments ot tbe
law concerning the method of drawing
jurors, and for tho total abolition of the
jurors’ test oath.
In view of the fact that tho President,
in his veto message,makes no comment on
these, it is believed he will promptly ap
prove them when presented to him in an
independent bill. It was also argued to
day in behalf of the programme above
outlined, that the Presidentoranot justi
fiably withhold his signature from the ap
propriation bill merely beoause it omits
to make provision for a particular object,
and that in the antioipatsd event of hta
approving the presont bills, Iho Demo
crats will have accomplished for the next
year exaotly what they would havo ac
complished for an indefinite psriod of
time by former bills, and wbat they may
oontinne to accomplish by similar legis
lation ae long as they remain in power.
The joint meeting wbb adjonrned until
Monday, by which time the recommen
dations agreed npon will have been pro
mulgated in appropriate phraseology by
the 8nb-committee, consisting of Sena
tors Thurman, Eaton, Vance and Bailey,
and Representatives Chalmers, Springer,
Ewing and Rogers, Bnd submitted for
final approval, preparatory to their pre
sentation to the joint caucus of the Demo
cratic me mb ora ef both Houses, whioh
probably will be hold Monday evening.
In response to objections raised by a
few of those who participated in the
meeting, that the adoption ot thiB tbe large conoourse of spectators who did
policy would be construed as backing down
on the part of the Democracy, ilB ad
vocates made the point that althongh
there bave been individual utterance in
ravor of withholding supplies in the event
of failure to secure the enactment of the
political clauses originally embodied in
the appropriation bill, it is not true that
any such stand has ever been taken by
authority of the party. On the oontrary,
the question whether snch stand shonld
be taken has never been acted npon by
the Democratio cancus of either branch
of Congress, or by a cbucub committee
until this afternoon.

Editors Telegraph 4* Messenger:
If you will pardon tbe intrusion, I wiij
occupy a small space in your valuable and,
widely read journal to enlighten tne pub
lie, concerning the now celebrated “Hall
trial” in the District conrt of the United
States, which happily terminated yester
day ra the triumphant acqnittal of the
defendant, by a jury composed of four
Democrats and eight Republicans, three
of the latter colored. I doubt if any trial
has ever oacnrred in the oourt annals of
our State that excited as muoh interest,
personal and political, as the one in qnes-
tlon. A man of irreproaohabl* private
character, tbe LUmenantaGovernor of
tbe State, and now oconpying a seat in
Congress, is brongbt by hra politioal foes
(conspiocloasly foremost among whom is
bis defeated Congressional competitor,
H. Biabee, Jr.,) tbrongh the inquisitorial
machinery oi tbe U. S. Marshal's office,
to face tbe charge of “a conspiracy to
oommit an eleotion frand in tbe connty
of Brevatd.” Months of laborious work
were employed by the irrepressible Bis-
bee and bis willing tools in the manufac
ture of the It gal meshes from which
there was to be na escape. The five
miserable wretohes, who perpetra
ted the Brevard fraud, were various
ly used to accomplish the purpose.
The three weakest and most illit
erate, Lee, Wright and Johns, were tried,
convicted and sentenced to the peniten
tiary. The other two, Allen and Ganl-
den, (the latter the nephew of the once
notorious “Roaring Lion of Liberty”)
were promised immunity from punish
ment (and I donbt not a liberal reward)
if they would implicate Hull in the fraud
and give testimony that would
convict him. This arranged, it
was easy to proonto an indictment
from an ironclad grand jury, which was
done in January last, and the Lieutenant
Governor was arrested while presiding
over the Senate of Florida. Fortunately,
Judge Settle granted the motion of the
defendant for time to prepare, and the
trial was set down for May. You may
rest assured every moment of the interval
was used by both sides in tho prepatation
for tho momentious event Tho stake
was, on the one side, thu liberty and honor
of an innocent man, with limited means
for the contest; on tho other
the triumph of a foul political conspiracy
hatched by a malignant brain and backed
by the wealth and power of the Uaited
States. No wonder the friends of Hull
trembled for the result, and found com
fort only in tho absolnteeonviction of his
innocence and a firm trust in a just and
righteous Judge,
The trial was; delayed until the
arrival of Justice Bradley, of
the United States Supreme Couit,
before whom and Jadge Settle a motion
was made to quash the indiotment on the
ground of a want ot jurisdiction of the
conrt in a question involving a congres
sional eleouon htld at a time aud in oon-
nection with a general S ate eleotion.
Judge Baker, for the defense, argued tbe
question most ably upon constitutional
grounds, end elicited from the
judges the opinion that there were
grave doubts, so muoh so that
in tbe event of Holi’s oonviotion,
they would suspend sentence, and oertify
the qne3tioD to the Supreme Conit.
Toey decided, however, to refuse tho mo
tion to quash, and ordered the trial of the
erase before Jadte Settle, with tho above
uuderstanding and power ra the event of
a oonviotion. Neitner time nor Bpaoe
will admit of a detailed acconnt of this
most romarkable trial.
Distriot-Attorney Stickrey assisted by
Mr. Sloan, of Savannah, a special assign
ment by the government, eondaoted the
prosecaticn. Mr. Foster, Judge Baker,
Colonel Fleming and Mr. Height, were
employed for the defense. The princi
pal witnesses for tbe prosecution were
Gaulden, Allen and Poyntz. Many of
the best citizens of Orange county were
present under summons by the defense,
to impeach tbe testimony of Gaulden
and Allen, and a number of highly re-
BDeotable and intelligent gentlemen from
Kentuoky were present to impoaoh Allen
if necessary. Their more presence was suf
ficient to confine Allen within the bounds
of trnth and their testimony was not
needed. Allen’s story, while fully es
tablishing bis own guilt, was a direct
vindication of Hull. The same may be
said of the testimony of Poyntz. There
was a general sympathy felt for this wit
ness, who haB heretofore borne a good
character. He was the only ono with
whom Governor Hull bad aoy inti
macy previous to the trouble, and it waa
to him tho LUutenantGovernor wrote the
innocent bat, in the light ot subse
quent events, imprudent letter which, in
the hands of his over-zealons friend,
Poyntz, and the mercenary and unscru
pulous Allen and Gaulden gave to the
Radioals the pretext for all this persecu
tion. The testimony of the miserable
Gaulden bore the unmistakable impress
of Radical ingenuity and rascality. It
was the villainous decoction of their
practiced brain, conceived and brought
forth in the midnight shades and away
from the haunts of honest men. Like
all such evil plottings, it fell of
its own weight, and when the
defense were through with tho wretch,
there was cot a living being from
the jadge and jurors down through all

While the prosecution was ingenious,
tho defense was thorough and complete,
and such as leaves the defendant more
conspicuously vindicated and honored
than he bos ever been.
Throughout the long trial the interest
never flagged, and after Judge Settle’s
Impartial charge to the jury and their re
tirement to consider their verdict, this
interest rose to intense excitement. The
jury were ont about twenty-four hours.
Twioe they returned to the court-room
for further instruction from the court.
This, however, wa3 at tho instance of
one of the negroes. It looked painfally
like it was to be a mistrial,and the friends
of Hull were depressed because they felt
heldeBtrved an acquittal.
At the last ono of the abovo mentioned
visits of the jury, Col. Robert Gamble,
ex-comptrollor of the State and one of
Florida’s noblest citizens, aged and vener
able, remarked to the court that the jury
conld not agree. There was a. little
