London, June 2.—A Vienna dispatch to tbe lime: says tne concession of Gov ernor-General Aleka Pasha to the popu-. lice in not hoisting the Turkish flag and not wcarning tbe Fez cap, have produced a very bad effect at Constantinople-—es pecially on tue Saltan, who seems to at tach far greater importance to these mat ters than his ministers. The Sultan is said to be determined to insist on hoisting the Tarkuh flig. It is stid stringent instructions to that effect hsve already been sent to Aleka Pasha. It is also intended to lay the case before tbe powers. Aleko’s conduct is considered insalting and as the first step in a movement which, in the end will render the Porte V authority altogether illusory. This tear seema not altogether b ur- less as the agitation commenced in favor of a native commander of militis, which points toward a denial or limitation of tbe Sultan’s treaty-light to appoint the malitia officers.

Lisa $65,000; insurance $52,- 000 Richmond, June 2.—Judge Christian, of tne Hustings Court, to-day gave bia answer to iha petition of the committee cf colored citizens asking him to sum mon as jurors all persons entitled to nponltho pell books without discrimina tion between white and black mho.: Toe petition was presented in oonformity with a resolution adopted by tbe conven tion of colored people held in this city on May lCLb, for the purpose of considering measures for tbe amelioration and im provement of the oolored rsoe, eto. Judge Christian, in answer, says: After a calm and deliberate considera tion, be concurs fully in the reasons giv en by bis predecessor, the late Judge Q iigon for refusing the petition, sikmg teat colored.persons accused of crimes be tried by colored juries. Tbe form and substance of tbe present petition, howev er, being different and the laws for sum moning juries m this court having been obageod, ho deems it necessary to give n somewhat different answer. He quotes from the liw* prescribing the qoanfica tions of jurors and the m*n ter in wbioh they shall be aummoued and says there can be no question tbat tbe State has a) right to prescribe tbe mode in which ju rors shall be. selected and snmmoned, and trials conducted in its coarts.' Thi he sustains by numerous citations of hisb legal authorities, including Judg es Marrh<ll, Siorey, Taney, Chase, Waite SDd »U jadges and text writers who are worth quoting, both before and etuos tbe adoption of the recent amendments to the Federal Constitntion, and claims that tbe State of Virginia, having explosive right to do to * , through tin legisla ture, cooferr-ru him a dulj oi furnish- itg liiis from whioa the jariea in his courts i-ball to taken. He recognizis the equality of oolored people, before the law, and that they are liable to seive oa Janes, and says tbat he will eummoo them for auob service when he deema it best for the - proper enforcement of the iaaa of the. oommcnwealib. Tne only principle which has governed, ox .will hereafter govern him, in the discharge of «bo duty cf eeleoling Jnrors, is that whioh will eDable him to oomply with the law; and at. the same time seoure the best material for its proper enforcomont. On one cf bis points beeayc: when I find I can do thiS’by selecting colored persons, I wilt do eo,-bus not till then. If I were disposed to do eo, it wculd be eimpfy im possible for mo to select all persona enti tled to setv^, and whose names appear on the poll books as prayed for in the petition and at the same time comply with the law which says I must select only such as I think will qualify as ju rors. There are hundreds in this city both white and colored, of whom £ have no opinion one way or the other. Per sons whom I never can, never will select, knowing nothing'of their aualificatione. If I were -to select some oolored jurors, now, with hundreds of more intelligent, white persons liable to jury duty that I know of to select from, such a selection would be made simply bsoausa thay were oolo ed, and - as was well said by my predecessor, I wonld then be ap plying a test of qualification condemned by tbe spirit at least of the fourteenth constitutional amendment and civil rights bill. Nothing that I hare said or done or can say or do/ is needed. No addi tional legislation is neces^try to render the CDlored citizens more liable under the law than they now are to jury duty. Ed ucation, elevation of character, and legal qualification are tbe only things that I know of necessary to render persona lia ble to such doty in this court, and my experience has taught me that the first two requisites are not attained by the admiti&ncs to the jury box, but must be bad b9forehhnd. No ono appreciates the colored people of this community more highly than I do or sympathises more deeply with them in any grievance that .they may labor un der. I was reared in their midst and hope to die with the same surround- iags, bn: I do not utdorstand from their petition that they have been aggrieved by anything I haye done, except I have not compelled them to bear cni of the burdens toiirhicb the law has made them liable. Ia conclusion, Jadge Christian ears : As before stated, -I- have in the past selected the -bsit material I could find, Libia to ducharge-these important trusts to be confided to them, and I rx- peet to do the same in the < fntariP with an eye single to what I understand to bo my dutv under tho law, and whatl be lieve to be the best and highest interest file their petition and continue to put on t-uen persons on tha jury as I only Tbe caucus' of the Republican Senators ■To-day considered Bayard’s bill to repeal section' 820 and 821 of- the revised stat ue*- It w-s the nnanimons opidion. thst section 820, prescribing the test oath, should be repealed.

The ceremonies were extremely simple, con sisting merely of viewing of the remains by tho relatives and friends and the fa- neral oration by Colonel IngeraolL A large number. of distinguished gentle men were present, including S-cretary Sherman, Assistant' Secretary Hawley, Senators Blaine, Voorhe-e, Paddock, Al- lison, Ligan, Hon.

Feay Albany, Ga- May 31st, 1879. Colonel S. H. Jones, 11aeon, Oa : My Very Dear Friend:—I have with much pleasure read your article on Dr. William Temple Feay, lately deceased in Savannah, and the reminiscenseB of Col onel I. W. Avery, of Atlanta, one of the Doctor’s “boys,” and also tbe graVer communication to the Horning News by another pupil, who is now tbe peer of any practitioner at tho Savannah bar. Each one of these papers fills a separate place. I knew the Dr. as a man, a scholar, a bot anist, and an intimate friend. He wae not communicative of matters personal, to himBelf, but I learned from hiqx that his father died when he himself was a boy, aud after his mother’d second mar riage, he of his own choice left her home. That independence of spirit whioh sof peculiarly characterized him had much to do with his leaving, as it did with the shortness of his sojourn ia Franklin Col lege,.and tbe termination of the “lore affair” to wbioh Colonel A. alludes. , I knew much,, perhaps more, than any other, about all these matters; bnt, dear Colonel, they are ended long ago, and the parties to the^ have been loogat rest, so let them also sleep. - It is true that when he came into pos session of his patrimony he baoame ac quainted with the “real times” men, and with them he spmetimes offended.Bao- chus. Bat when hiB money wad gone, his offenses near the shrines of tbe jolly god ceased also, .Not one ravel would .be participate in when ha 'coald no longer pay his part or reciprocate. He tamed himse-f away to the work of hia life with his unique manliness and tenacity; and ms unique manliness ana tenacity; ana as be took up, all unnsed to them though he was, the implements ^ithi. which the teacher works,.ha laid aside all thosb oth er hindaranoes. When I first knew hte&i in 185d.he was a “teetotaller,” both as re- garde -alcohol .find tobacco. He wonld not use them as medicine even. Ha was once suffering from a .protracted attack of . acute. rheumatism, and his medical aivisertqld, him he must takepokabemea in brandy. He refused. “Then,’-’Saps his friend,’’you must die,” “I will die, then,”said hc; “but Uki it I win not!” Ol this tenacity of purpose there are many anecdotes. The study of batany was bi-gun because he feared that chemi- c il pursuits in hi* laboratory to which.be. car ardently dieted, injured his health. Of the difficulties that he met with in that study at.flrst, and the pluck with which roogbt against them, until he con quered I know many instances, which would much effect the risibles of the in itiated. I cannot speak now of the supe rior proficiency to which he attained In the “gentle science.” He cot only cor responded, bnt was also acquainted with Prof. Gray, of Haward, Dr. Obapman, of When Savannah was taken in 1864, wagon loads of his book3 wero stolen. Only a thief, one who valned them solely -for their money’s worth, wonld have plundered them. Bnt the prey exceeded tbe robber’s greed; and many- books still remained. Whioh brings me to my lost point. In yonr editorial, dear Colonel, yon intimate that the Dootor died a pan per; and make the natural reflation *'h poorly even our bast educators are paid.' You will be glad to know of yonr mistake. He died possessed of the remains of. this library and other articles of vlrtn and value,worth together,at a very low valua tion, $2,000. When he was stricken with paralysis, two years ago, being a bachelor, that he might have every attention, he was taken to tbat magnifioeni charity, the Savannah hospital. Ic was the best plaoe for him in the whole world. He was no Charity patient in the eyes of the managers, and medical officers. They often told his friends who oared for him with fraternal affection, that Dr. Feay, with hts long and successful service in Savannah as a teacher had earned every- thingthey could dofor him, and that he should have whatever he needed as long asheebosed to atayj not osagifr, bur as a debt. All honor to them, I know you will say. The then President of the Hospital, Mr. Wm. Danoan, a citizen of Savannah, forward m all good works for half a century, died not long bo fore Dr. Feay; and his son, Dr; Dancan, the chief physician, was ever*uarefnl- that —the kind intentions of -the authorities were always accom plished. . When he died, his funeral expenses were temporarily advanced by bis constant friends, to be repaid to them out of the proceeds of his estate. His pall bearers were among the best citizens of the city, whioh he had served eo long and. well, bis former pupils and the tesoh- ers of the public schools. As a favor to spot so many soores of times with him. ana wuu wisnea nis beloved companion to be associated with him and his, even to the last of him on earth. Ah 1 my dear Colonel, men loved Dr. Feay; and of how few of ns oan that be Bald. He died full of years and honors, attended by the riob, the learned and the good, and clad with a wealth of sffeotion’ sel domehovn. lie guiesccl in pac:. Yonra very truly, T. G. Pond. Last Week's Cotton Figures, AND THE SITUATION. The receipts of the seven days ending with Friday flight of last.week, were, ac cording to the New York Chronicle, 17,- 113 bales, ogainat 18,220 the correspond ing task • of- last year. Total receipts from 1st September to last Friday, 4,889,- 721 bales, against 4,196,101 for the cor responding portion of tbe cotton year 1877_78— »ho winfc a net increase-of 193,- theyear. The interior ports received daring last week 6,830 bales, against 11,447 ths cor responding week of last year. They shipped 16,081 bales, against 18,727 the samp Week last year, and held 42,198 bales in 6tock, against 39,025 last year at; same date. - The thronicles's visible supply table -showed 1,791,899 bales of potion in eight last Friday night, against 2.062.965,’bales at same date last year—2,763,766 atskme date the year before, and 2,660,754 in 1876 at same date. These figures show a daorease of 271.566 bales on the visible supply, of 1878 -a decrease of 972,877 bales on the visible supply of 1877, nnd a decrease of 859 355 baits ott tbe visible supply Of 1876 at same date. Middling npland was quoted in Liver pool last Friday at 613-16. At same date id 1878, the quotation was 6 3-16, iu 1877, at same date, it was 5}, aud in 1879, at same date, it was sixpence. Tne Chronicle’s weather telegrams of last Friday show tbat TexaB needs rain Corn is Buffering badly and ootton wonld be helped by rain. Louisiana, Arkansas, Mississippi and Tennessee are in the same condition. Mobile and Selma had rain one day during the week. Mont gomery ia dry. MadiBon, Florida, had no ram, but oomplains of grass. Ditto Macon, Georgia, whioh also says labor is scarce,-but it is oertaia able-bodied men nqnd itrqand Macqx^.were never more abundant than nhw. ' Cclumbus and Sa vannah had no rain'. 1 ' Augusta bad 9-100 of an inob. Charleston was dry. As a whole, no donbt; ootton is in a promising condition, and the absence of raip last week was a bleseiog, regarding (he small grain crops, whioh tfe«t in urgent oonree of:harvesting, and .dry weather, there- ore, mnoh. needed.
