Hs delights in literature, and man ages to keep pace with current publications. —The first important shipment of gold from ttffi oonatry to Europe, since the r sumption of specie payments, took plaoe Wednesday, when $25),0C0 was sent out by the steamer Algeria. —Qreat 'excitement is ciuscd in French and Dutch Guiana by extraordinary finds of gold lately, and a deposit of lead and silver has been discoverel on the Thames River, New Zealand. —The Bismarck cf to-day Is certainly not a handsome man. Ho is so fat as to be metre unwieldy than ever; he has a puffy and un healthy look, and his appetite hesitates never. Bread and cheese and beer are said to be what he especially likes. —‘I want to see the Princess,’ said an old woman at Kingston, aa the vlceregil party entered their carriages. ‘Here aheis—take a good look at her,’ said His Excellency, giving hi* wife by the shonller and drawing her forward, amid cheers and laughter. —It is reported that the belles of the pre sent season in London are Lady Lonsdale, Lady Mandeville, and Mrs. Paget, the last two Americans and all three married ladies. The girls of the - period are to be.pit! ^^[^kftsn^ , their # charmer*the young frisky matrons oorry all before them. —Of eleven female candidates who pre sented themselves for the first examination for the degrees of the University of London, six were placed In the honors division, four were declared entitled to exhibition, and one was second In the whole list Of candi dates. The standard of the London Uniter sity is a very high one. —Prinoe Napoleon Jerome Bonaparte has a veritable museum of Napoleonic relies. There is tho sabre worn by the great Emperor at the battle of Marengo, a silver dreetiag- oate which he gave to King Jerome, the lit tle three-cornered hat, and the field glass with which ha watchod his battles. —Fohr hundred thousand persons, accor ding to the Bailway World, are employed on the railroads In this country, and five times as many depend upon the roads for support, {t to also estimated that between $330,000,- 000 and $403,000,(00 tie annually paid to employes and to persons who famish the companies with supplies of various kinds. E—The Immigrant arrivals at Oaatle Garden, New York, are as la’geas at any time in our history, If not larger. Each successive week they grow larger. Last week they exceeded eight thousand, and the prospects are that the current wogkwiD foot up an even larger total. 2 —Cetawayo is determined to give the Brit ish the trouble cf another campaign rather than Surrender unconditionally. The Brit ish wisely think it beat to administers thorough and final chastisement. A policy Involving a single concession to stvages al ways cost more in the long run than to carry s war once begun to euccessfal termi nation. —Beaton is now being paved with the aonhaltte-li* in dace of Other paving mite- and is five inches deep and four inches square superficially. Its base is pulverized lime stone, which is cemented by aephaltum and crude petroieom. The blocke are struck out by s steam press, and each block baa s p-os- sure of fifty tons. —Ibto the Omo Elxctios the Washing ton correspondent cf tbe Baltimore Sun says from information received here it is learned that with very few. exceptions the German Democratic press, not only of Ohio, but of tbe whole county, brva declared against Swing on account of his greenback ideas.

The gfite of taxation bss been reduoea to $120 Oh the $100. Other Alabama towns, parti- eolarly in she northern part of the State, 'firnlah evidences of a; revival la their in creasing business Industries. •-Texas has enacted a local option b«U- puneh law. Each county in the State may decide, as heretofore, whether aioohoiie beverages shall or shall not be sold within its borders, and, anonidthe verdict be in favor of the sales, then the oounty authori ties may decide upon the nnmitr of places to be license* and provided with bell-pun- ohee. Tbe Galveston Nears estimates that 300 Monties will adopt the bell-punch sys tem, and that the number of punches requir ed Will be about 4.000. It is a singular fact that, notwithstanding tbe prevalence of violence in Texas, the sale of liquor is strict ly prohibited in many oonnties of that State. <—Strange nischanoes with fatal reanlts, eays the New York Son, are daily happening here and there. A Boston butcher ran against a knife that Isyon a block, sevored an artery, and bled to death. A Denver WDfittncaught her foot inn railroad frog, ahd oould not get loose before n train ran oVer her. A Vermont farmer easesed with n straw fat his mouth, drew it into, bis lungs, sad dled choking. Ahorse kicked a Michi gan boy into a deep well, wberebe was drowned. The abne flew off the foot of a kicking mule, in NiehvUle, had fractured the stall of a baby. An Oregon girl swallowed her engagement nag, and lived only a week af terward. While standing on bis head, on the top of* high femes post, aa Ion boy lost bis balance, fell Into a tab of hot water, and was fatally scalded. A etone, thrown by a playfellow, broke a glass from w hich a St, louts boy was drinking, driving some of fctts pieses down his throat, and he died a tom days afterward ki great agony. Looking np to Watch ths flight of an arrow, a Nash- vBe woman did not see it descending direct- ly over her head, and the sharp metal polat penetrated her brain through one of her eyes, killing her instantly. -» >v> jui »-.« We are authorised bj tbe Chancellor of the University, Bev. F. H. Mel), D. D. LL. D., to state to the Board of Visitors that in consequence of the commence ment of the Atlanta University happen ing on the 2B1 instant, which would in terfere with the time cf their meeting at Athene, they are requested to appear at the University Library on Saturday, tbe 28th instant,(hi lieu of the first announce ment which was for Tuesday, June 24 th), to'begin the examination of tho papers Of tbe Senior class. A Necessary and Noble Enter** prise. We are pleased to state that our and indefatigable Superintendent of Pub lie Schools, Jfr.B. M.Ssttler, of whom not even his worst enemy oan Bay that‘he is not both competent and z salons in ~ discharge of hie duties, ia abont to vote all of hie energies during the pend ing vacation to the raising of a sufficient fund to remodel, in fact reconstruct the school edifices in tho Polhill lot. It has been ascertained by actual and carefnl calculation, that tbe sum of $3,000 wil suffice to transform the present subetan tial two story building now standing oi tbe premises, into a handsome and com. modious structure of ample oapacity to ac commodate comfortably the 300 children who now attend the North Macon Gram mar eohool. Those who are oonversont with the orowded, it may be said jammed, school rooms now in use, will at onoe see tbe absolute necessity of tho present movement. Think of a chamber, (the school room of Miss Guatin,) 19 feet in length by 19 feet in width* and a ceiling only 10 feet in altitude, furnishing but 3,610 enbio feet of epics, into whioh thirty-tight pupils are packed with little more than standing room. Or another, meshuring 30 feet by 10 feet, into whioh ate huddled fifty-two eoholare. How suggestive, in a hot summers day, ot the Black Hole of Calcutta, or some of the poor school establishments wa read of in Dickens works where squa lor, filth and starvation prevail. Not that our excellent teachers are not models of neatness themselves, and work like beav ers to preserve order and cleanlineea among their pupils. But what .can be space for each? Per contra, in the South Macon Grammar School the apartments are 13x30, with ceiling* thirteen lest high, and are provided with modern win dow-sash to let down from above, and with two ventilators to each room, The revered Dr. Nottingham in his admirable report aa Chairman of tbe Board of Health, the preparation of which in addition to an arduous prac tice, boat the community his voidable life, raid there should not be more than one occupant ot a school room to every 200 cubic feet ,of epaoe. Miss Gustin’a school allows precisely 95 feet to each pupil. Think of this parents, end then tremble for the consequences in the form of typhoid - fever, dyptheria and other malignant complaints. It ia to avoid such dreadful catastro phes that Mr. Z ttler has consented to devote his om, season of recreation to the good woi L uf supplementing the old accommoiatiuLs with others more com modious and healthful. With characteristic energy he has taken the field already, and procured from one gentleman a volunteer subscription of $100, from another $50, and from ~ third $25. This is a matter that touches very neatly the interests of a very large por tion of the commnnity, and we trust sll will respond as liberally as possible to bis appeals. What can be compared to the proper education and pbyBioal well being of onr children? Adjournment of Congress. The House yesterday adopted, appar ently without division, a concurrent reso lution to adjonra at 12 o’clock on Tues day, l?th instant. That day is tha an niversary of the battle of Bunker Hill— a faot which might possibly have sug gested it to the patriotism of Congress. The resolution was sent to the Senate ,v - z'-mmittee on Ap propriations. No acuor mac body will agree to it. That Congress mnst see its way clear to an early adjournment, is also apparent from the fact that SeBator Salisbury, as Chairman of the Committee having ohsrge of the Spofford-Kellogg case, warned tbe parties yesterday to hurry np their movements, aa Congress would adjonra by the end of this or beginning of next week. And so there is little or no doubt that we are coming to ti^e end of the famous extra session of 1879. There are various opinions abont this extra session and its probable effeot upon the fortunes of patties. A few deys ego tha Republican brotherhood were no doubt sincerely exultant over the failure of tbe Democrats to aooomplith a single end they proposed to accomplish by it. They intended to pbliterate or modify some of tbe war legislation of tbe past seventeen years, founded on the assump tion that millions of the people of the United States are hostile to tbe pnblie Welfare. They wished to make the beginning of. a retara to the usages of peaoe and pnblie oonfldenee; bat they have been defeated ia every thing by the veto—no doubt in opposition to ell ths original purposes and oonvldliona of Mr. Hayes himself, and with the single purpose to proteot the Badioal parly from the popular bal lot. - At first the Republicans were vary hap py over their achievement*, but jaat now they ore not so happy. None of them are pleaeed with tbe doctrinal positions to wbiob they have committed them selves. Tbe sober second (bought makes them spprsBeosive. Tha cobweb logic, Whioh Wes.good enosgh In the beat'of debate, looks flimsy now, and they see a hard row on tbe stump before them, un less political opponents ore more feeble and Inaptthsn common. This, we feel confident, ia about tbe state cf Republi can judgment just now. On tire other hand, the Democrats who were very sore over their defeat ore be coming more reraioilod to it *sthay stody the political attitude on both sides. They see that nothing but tbe “Grant boom” and a new eruption of the section al volcano, ore going to deafen ancMlind the American people to the heresies pre sented for their endorsement. It seems lees probable than it did that this country is going to take the back trad; for oentral-. ism and imperialism against personal and locftl freedom. Hence the extra- session will break np with no special exultation on either side. Both wUi be anxious. Nobth GzosgIa Aobiccltubal Ocn- uxso.—We acknowledge the reeeptUn of an invitation from Messrs. John W. Hea ley, James J. GaiLl&rd, H. Emmet.Wilson, George R. Brown and Charlee C. Power, stqde&ta of the Dahlonega North Geor gia Agricultural College, to attend the commencement of that growing institu tion on tbe 22d,23,24th.ond26th.of Jane. The oooasion will be rendered more in teresting by a grand festival whioh hoe been tendered (^eiihral Toombs as s tes timonial of gratitude for his efforts in se- curing the Gilmer fusd t<fr tbe benefit of tbe oollege. It would afford the writer unqualified pleasure to attend the commencement of the Dahlonega Agricultural College,’ whioh ia aa atrong aa ever, despite the ravages of the fire fiend, and ia destined to become a blessing and honor to pur commonwealth, but. other public duties he will be called upon to discharge at that time will demand Iris presence else where. Most heartily, however, do we wish euocese to President Lewis, Frofes sor Gaillord and their associates in the great work of educating the mountain eers of Georgia. —Information received by the Indian Bareau from Fort Belknap states that 800 lodges of Sitting Bull’s Tpsi-n- are reported south of the BrIUsb line. They have not aa yet oommltted any acta of direct hostility. Tho Southwest Georgia Agri cultural College. It will be remembered that the present Legislature before taking a recess passed an act establishing a branch of the State Agricultural College at Cuthbert, Ran dolph county, Georgia. Since that pe riod the eltiz ms of this enterprising lit* tie city have not been idle, but ore pre pared to donate ample grounds, a commo dious bailding, and probably the most beautiful and appropriate site in the State to the proposed foundation.lt is sot too much to say that with proper ef fort two hundred joutha can be congregated there to be instructed in the practical sciences,and seat forth as pioneers of civilization, and model farm ers, engineers and bridge makers leaven the land with their example and intelligence. Many of them, however, would doubtless first complete their stud ies at the University, which is the parent fount of our system of State education. In this way the branch colleges will act as feeders to that venerable and illus trious institution. No more salient and appropriate spot than Cuthbert could have been selected as the site of one of these district col leges. ‘ Possessed of pure water, as healthy as any location in the State, elevated, dry and salubrious aa she ie, and already an educational centre, what more could be required ? We are glad, therefore, to chronicle that on Friday the 17th instant, the JIW-a—« -A 4h>* Oam4Wa4 Oeovgia Ag. ricultural College will hold a meeting at Cuthbert and inaugurate all the neces sary steps to give force and effect to the late act ot the Legislature. Hon. John T. Clark and Judge Arthur Hood will al so present the claims of the inchoate in- stitntion to the Trustees of the Stats University at their annual meeting be fore the commencement in August, We have little doabt the project will meet with tbe success it so eminently de ceives. Hr. John sing Tells Bow Kel logs Was Kleettd, Mr. Joseph J. Johnson, one of the col ored witnesses for Kellogg, whsirhe ap pealed before the Committee 'was con fronted, like the others, with an affidavit on ’(other side, of whioh the following is an extraot: 1 was a member of the Republican caucus. I made a motion, which was carried, to have Mr. Kellogg come in a-d address the caucus. He did come in and said that he had stood by the Govern ment and risked his life for it. That if they had intended to drop him they could go to hell, and he would turn mat ters over to tbe Democracy. I com plained of his language to Lewis J. Souer, and he said that Kellogg had to be elec ted to save the Government. Mr. Jones told me he was going to Governor Kel logg to get some money. Sometime after Jones came to my room and told me that he had got tbe money. He showed me an order on Auditor Johnson, signed by Kellogg. I, myself, went to Kellogg and told him that I was hard up. He wanted me to stand by him and go to Colonel Souer and he would give me satisfaction. I went to Souer and asked him if I voted for Kellogg for Senator if he would give me a position in the Cus tom Honse. Souer said that it did not matter much what was done afterwards, but that everyone who voted for Kellogg I asked if I would then promised my vote, which promise I kept. After the vote about four or five days I was called into Mr. Sonet’s private room and he paid me the $200 agreed upon. George Washington, member from Con cord, was waiting to be called after me. When I got my money Washington got his. I saw' him getting money. Tbe next who come in after Washington was Anderson Tollener, of Conooxdla. I was still watohing-outside of the door and looking in. I saw Boner pay him money also. - Saw Baptiste Drew, of Rapid River,(go into the private room. When ho came out I asked him it he got his money and he said ’yes/ and showed it to me. J. J. Johnson. Upon being asked whether his state ment was true, the witness shcfflsd and finally Aaid he did not remember saying What was In that paper. He asked Kel logg to lend him some money, but be said be had none and that Soner wonld lend him some. That was not for any eleotion matter. He • acknowledged, however, that tbe paper was read to him before he signed it. A Great Steamship. The Arizona, ot Williams and Gaion’a Liverpool line, made her first appearance In New York harbor last Sanday night, in seven days (torn Qaeenstown. She is a new iron ship and next to the Great Eist- ern, the largest steamer afloat, measur ing 6,000 tons—465 feet long—40 feet in width and 37i feet in depth—with a pro- peir-<r power whioh pushes her through the * ,.er at the rate of seventeen miles an hour, with a consumption of 100 tons of oosl per dagtfH Iter appointments for passengers are all ts magnificent os can be described, and 1 She can accommodate two thousand of the latter at onoe.

They might have known that it would have produeed this, that and the other effeot—ail of which and much more of tbe same sort is plainly re ducible to tbe postulate that they ought not to ^ave done any thing and should not have been in Congress at all. it ia the fact that the Southern men— brigadier* or what-not—can keep on good term3 with the Northern majority only on twp conations—.they must keep out of eight or holler for the Republicans and curse themselves. - If they will do either of these tbings the Republicans will “let them offbut so loDg as they set up to be Congressmen, with views and respon sibilities of their own.it ia certain they can have no peace. They will always be full of crimes and blunders and wil! always be making capital for the stalwarts per force of their own unpopularity in tbe stalwart latitudes. • - j.' o Itia too clear for dispute that a very different rule of moral and politioal ethics applies to them from that which isap plied to men who "saved the country, Their ease is a gross exaggeration of the one complained of by H«udy Andy in Lever, wb» plaintively remarked ti>»fc. when a “glntleman'’got on a spree, he was only a little fresh, ..bat drunk was the word tot a poor man, and the jastioe sent one to jail and invited the. other to dinner. It will be a long time before a South ern politician can do anything which, in the North,will not be a crime or blunder, unless it be done to order end by particu lar and universal request of that part of the oonntry. In the case in point,the fact of a House fall of “Southern brigadiers’’ is itself crowning and especial grievance which calls for Grant and is some way or other a renewal of the antler, carpetbag and African statesmanship of ten yeiiia ago. It is a shame that the so-called conquered rebels should have Representatives and Senatori able to treat public questions as intelligently as those from other parts ot the county, and feeling it a sworn dntv so to treat them. - It is not surprising that when Bach men up* lift the voice all that they say should be pronounced absurd or dangerous. With dummies in their places there would be no oomplaint. But able men, noting un der the impreeeion that they are &b mneb Senators and Representative as anybody are intolerable. The thing looks particu larly impudent and offensive, Thus these blunders appear to be paet other remedy than the mollifying influ ence of time. The Southern Congress men, we are quite certain, will continue to feel and act as if they had duties and responsibilities, and were rightfully there; but the Northern brethren mnst have time to become reconciled to what seems to them an impudent assumption. The [Approaching session ot tho Legislature. KC SERIOUS DIFFICULTIES IN THE WAY, In the communication in our Sunday’s issue under the head of “Local Legisla tion,” the writer anticipates that consti tutional difficulties will render almost impracticable any such legislation at tbe approaching session. We think, howev er, that a careful examination of the ma chinery provided in the constitution will ehowthat his apprehensions are not well grounded. The constitution is very rigid in its re quirements. First, that the committee on local legislation shall be appointed within five days from tho organisation; second, that no local bill shall be read or considered'by the House until the same haabeen reported by the committee; and, third, that this committee shall not consider or report any such bill to the House, unless the'samo shall have been laid before it within fifteen daya after the organization of the General Assem bly. It Is true, that the General Assem bly was organized In November last, and If there were no qualifications in the fore ‘going provisions it would necessarily follow that there could be no local legis lation at the approaching session. Bat recognizing that peculiar cir cumstances might require a relaxation to the rule, the framera of the Constitu tion further provided that tha second and third requirements oould be dispens ed, with by a two-thirdi vote of the House. The peculiar circumstances exist at pres ent. As the Constitution foiled to desig nate the manner u which shonld be advertised ths intention to apply for the passage of local bills, there could be so Bulch advertisement or notice of each intention prior to the November session. Therefore, those who desire legitimate local legislation, and who have now ad< vertised their intention to apply for the tame, will present themselves at the July session, after the expiration of the fifteen dije, it it true, bat still at the first op portunity whioh the law boa mode prac ticable. This will clearly call for tbe exercise of thff discretion whioh tho Con stitution vested in the Honse to meet such cases, and all proper bills which have been advertised will doubtless be admitted without disunity by a two- thirds vote. If. so the difficulty will vjaish. Upon examination we find that the committee on local legislation mu duly appointed by the Speaker of the base at the proper time, and its chair- on is Mr. Hammond, of Thomas oonn- ■, a thorough and active lawyer, most admirably qualified for this position of difficulty under the new Constitution. . The. length of time required for the transaction of legislative business under the new Constitution will be no greater at the adjourned session than at any sub sequent seesio«. These provisions are permanent, and apply to one session as well as to another. They make the pro cess of legislation slower than hereto fore, bat wnile there are aome valid ob- ections to the innovation, haste in leg islation t* to be depreoated. Dispatch is desirable, bnt it ie very poor economy to attempt to save money by hasty legisla tion. We ore inclined to think that import ant daties will rest npop tbe General As sembly at the approaohing session. Cer tain kinds of looal legislation ore to be depreoated, and it ia due to this fact that many persons condemn ail of it in discriminately. Bat maoh of it is cer tainly important and neoeaeary at this time. For instance, itao happens, we. believe, that Macon, Atlanta, Augusta, Savannah and Columbus all desire amend ments to their several ohartera as to mat ters concerning thsir respective bonded debts, involving millions of dollars. The government of the county of Bibb haB given . notice of an application for thV passage ofY some half dozen bills by the operation of whioh it is contended, much money will be saved to the county. We cite these simply as instances. Similar demands in greater and less degree exist in the majority of the counties of the State. Bat aBido from the demand for local leg islation there are many matters ef a gen eral character which will require action oh the part of the Legislature. Changes in general laws are not deeirablo unless necessary. The adoptied of the new con stitution has mode many of theso changes indispensable, and it would certainly bi anomolous to be living under one consti tution and still continue in force, the statatee framed for another constitution in many respects altogether different. What are the particular laws whioh re quire thus tq.be remodeled it ia unneces sary now to designate. In addition to these Bubjeots matter of legislation there are several particular aubjeotB ■which theLegielature cannot ignore. 1st. The law regulating railroad tariffs, a moat delicate and difficult prob 1 Iem for eolation, and yet one made necessary under the new constitution. 2ad. The penitentiary system. We ore not prepared to say that the facts re- quiro that any change shonld be made bat it is true that under the ohargea whioh were made dnnng the last session a very thoroogh examination of them is expeoted by the pnblie. 3J. Tbe wild land matter ie n most vo luminous anbjeot,and one in wbioh many of the oitizsna of the State are vitally in terested to the extent of millions of dol lars. A committee is now in session in Atlanta collecting e>ideno» and its labors will doubtless be continued until the meeting of the General Assembly, 4tb. The oosfltot over the endorsement of the Northeastern Railroad bonds will probably be inaugurated, however, un- jast and greatly to be depreoated. These, and other matters which we have not epaoe to particularize,necessarily asm bine to make the approaohing session one whioh must necessarily be laboriona and diffioalt. To disoharge their daties properly the members will need not only ability and fidelity, bnt great patienoe, end the' support of all intelligent citizens. We have heard it intimated from a high source that with proper rulings os to the time consumed in tbe various debates, and tbe salntary interposition of tbe “pre' vions question” when neoeaeary, the sea- ton oan be abridged to six weeks. We shall be satisfied if it terminates in two months. Certainly there will be no diffi' cnlty In getting looal legislation through without delay, as it ts seldom that even a single objeolion ia raised to the passage of any private bill where no constitution al point is involved. After the presint exceedingly impor- n«—Ums- mnrcfifnlirtn llflfftng b6€j folly interpreted and habilitated wil begin to work smoothly. Bnt it takes time to inangurate tbe nnmerons chan ges required in tbe fundamental law. [From an Oooasional Correspondent.] Texet's Mux., June C, 1879.

Compared to last year, however, I think it Is safe to say that in this vioinity at least, oats are not so good, while wheat ts probably abont the same.

In common with nnmerons others, I entertained great hopes that there hid been found a rust-proof wheat, especially when a fanner of ths great, good esnee, care and discernment of this Thomas ooun ty gentleman gave outito the world what he considered to be such; that be has been mistaken in regard to ». however, is proven by the experience of a frifend of mine who procured some of tide wheat from Mr. Hare- sway, himself, and tried ’It, and like tbe balance of the wheat in this section, it had nut in plenty on the blade. I was very tarry to see it, too, for perhaps if there oould bo found a variety of wheat as sure to make a crop with favorable season* as oats now are, there wonld bq much mare of that Hi rusted this season In Southern Georgia; it may be peculiarly adapted to that ollmate, and not therefore subject to rest, there.

YfASHETOTON, Jane 11.—The Senate re sumed tbe consideration of the MoDocaid bill to authorise the use of troops in oertam cases and to repeal the election lews.

Mr. Hill showed that hie vote is the Georgia Convention was against secession, bnt the eeoesston resolution was adopted by the convention, and, after that, it woe only a question of whether the oitizeue of a Seate should uphold ite solemn notion in convention. He therefore signed the ordinance ot secession, after ite passage, os did -all his colleagues, though one third of the members voted with him •gainst it.

That this wastes the opinion of the present Secretary of State is shown by the following extract from a letter of jurisdiction to the Marshal of Florid., wriUeu bv him, August 20th, 1860, while Attorney General nnder a former administration- “The special duty and authority in the execution of a process issued to you must not be cenfounded with the doty and au thority of suppressing disorder and pre- serving peao«. which under our aovtm-s mmt Delongs to the civil authorities of the State and not to the civil authorities of the United States, “It may be repealed J£S£ fore ’” 8a J 8 * to® * 8 P®rt “tnat sections 2,002 and 5,523 ot the Eevieed Statutes ao not authorize tho officers ot the United States to keep the peace at the polls bnt merely to otherwise insure and they can not be rattonally construed to confer any amhority or impose any duty. Tbe final objection of the President to tbe bill is that it discriminates in favor of State and against national authority by making it lawful nnder roue circuinstan ces to use tbe army to prevent violence in the conducting of State elections, snd unlawful to do so in the conducting of national elections. Upon this point the report says: ‘-The common sense of the country understand* that all eleotlons ins State, whether for members of Congress or local offioers, are by the same electors, and those electors derive tbeir power to vote, as was deoided by the Supreme Court in the ooee of Miner vs. Happen- sett, 21 Wall, page 176, from the State and not from the United 8tatee. It is, therefore, ss much -in the power and duty of tbe State government to maintain peace and order at elections for Congressmen' asst elections for State offioers. Ia oonolnsion tbe report earns np with n reiterated- statement that the federal government bts not and oannot derive from Congress any right to pre serve peace in a State either at the polls or elsewhere, unless called npon by the proper State authorities, and that it is difficult to eeo how a distinct reservation to tne President of the power to suppress an insarreotion against a State when properly oailed on, oan be said to dero gate from authority of the United States. The report oloses with the request of’the commutes to be discharged from farther consideration ef the Bubject.

After describing the state of feeling in the South at that time, Mr. Hill read ex tracts from the minnfes of tbe Georgia Convention of 1861, showing that he was one of the minority party whioh tried to postpone the resolation of secession until after consultation with other Southern States and a meeting of the Pesoe Con vention at Eiohmond. He both spoke against the resolation and voted against if. After the ordinance ofseoesaiou had been drafted he mode another effort to get a substitute which embodied the views of toe opponents of secession sdop« ted in plaoe of it, bnt failed. The ques« tion then was whether he shonld approve the solemn soliou of his State or not, Noting more con’d be done, and when it cime to signing the ordinance every man affixed bis name as an attestation of his readiness to abide by tbe solemn decis-i ion of i he Stats. These facta hs aaid Mr. Blaine had misrepresented. A persis tent effort had also been made by the Re publican press cud others to hold him np to execration a* a brutal, ornel man, and he bad been charged with introducing retaliatory war measures in the Confed erate Senate. He quoted from the rec ord to show' that the charge was unfound ed and malioiouB. He undei stood that agents had been sent through the Sonth by hie opponents to look up his "record,” but no word of his would ever be found to justify the charge that he had spoken disrespectfully of the anion ot these States nnder the Constitution. Upon this subject he defied malice. Ho said ho had never been on extremist in politios and consequently during the war ho had been blamed by tbe books! uniats as a national ist and woe now blamed by the oonsoli* danoutats element aa a secessionist. He then spoke at some length upon the pend ing politioal questions and closed with an eloquent appeal to the American people to abandon sectionalism, whether tend ing towards semsuon or despotism, and return to constitutional government os inaugurated by Madison and expounded by Webster.
