Davenport's Let. Era UsKatTonn.—Mr.
John I Davenport, federal supervisor of
elections in New Yotk, was under examina
tion Tuesday concerning toe oppression of
voters In November last Copies of letters
were prodnesd between Davenport and Dis
trict Attorney Woodford and Attorney Gen
cral Devons. These communications tend
to shew that Divenpcr: deliberately contem
plated the wholesale arrest of innocent men
on the morning of the eleotion. Hii lan
guage t» Woodford indicates fear inconse
quence of snsb coarse, ana aeK3 tnu gimiiu-

ford to Davenport shows that tho former
declined to assume tho responsibility. Da-

value of yonr services ae detailed, in the in
terest of the purity of elections, or of good

PonncAL Clip-Trip tnovr Marsn is —
The Washington Dispatch to the New York
Herald says in some Bepnbiican quarters it
was pretended to-day that the failure of the
Marshals bill wonld pnt a stop to all proceed
ings in tbs Federal courts and inflict terrible
calamities upon the country. A formidable-
list was published of not less than eighteen
instances In which the United States, it was
asserted, would now lie defenseless at the
mexey of evil-doers. Of course this is all
nonsense. The veto message gavo inciden
tally some countenance to the fable, bre sueo
the President reel tod in it the duties of Mar
shals, which, if there were no Hareha!a,
would of course remain undone. But ho did
not pretend that theso dalles and offices
would be prohibited or would remain unful
filled through the leek of an appropriation
of money, and be does not intend to diaband
the force of marshals or to order them net
to act On the contrary, they will all go on
with all their duties preiisely as though the
Six hundred thousand dollar bill had not
been vetoed by the President, and all their
legitimate expenses will doubtless be cover
ed by a deficiency bill at the next session,
which, it is to be hoped, the President will
not veto. That is to say, the fast that the
marshals bill was vetoed does not prohibit
tho marshals from acting in their lawful
capacities, bnt only delays their payment a
few months. If it wore otherwise the Presi
dent would either not have vetoed tho bill
or he wonld have felt oblige! to call an ex
tra session.
—The only attempt, saya the Courier-Jour
nal, made in the Senate daring the recent
session of Congress to moot tho charges of
huge discrepancies, erasnres and generally
auspicious work in the Treasury, books was
by Senator Ingalls (bimeolf charged with
buying election in the Kansas Legislature),
who aaid that the discrepancy of about $ 100,-
000,000 between the statements of the pnb-
lio debt of 18G9, mads in that year, and in
1871, was caused by the leglect of one officer
to add the Pacific railroad bonds and cash in
the sinking fond. That is very good evi
dence of visions book-keeping, to say the
least and it is the first attempt at explana
tion which has been offered, and this discre
pancy has existed for years. It does no*
explain the hundredth part of the outrageous
discrepancies in the finance reports, public
debt, pension disbursement, etc., etc , an!
Hr. Ingalie did not go into the business any
farther, He sail that every discrepancy
could bo explained on' tho theory of careless
book-keeping. That is a melancholy admis
sion for his party, and it wool! be bad
orongh lf that were all; but it is not ail.
There are four entirely different statements
of the axnonntof the public debt in 1809, the
discrepancies ranging from SU.OGO.OQO to
3:03,000,009. This little matter legalis fails
to explain. Senator Beak remarked the
o.hsr day tnat ‘If any Senator will go to the
books of the Troasmy Department and bold
up any leaf of a public ledger to the sun, if
he does not find from one to ten scratches
and alterations male, his eyes w’il net be as
good as they ought to be.’ That is the
character of work done by ti-> Republican
book-keepers.

TIib Isthmus Canal.
One of the most interesting subjects of
the day outside of our country’s broad
limits is that of the Darion ship canal.
The projeot has been one in long con
templation, and stversi parties have sur
veyed the narrow neck of land which di
vides the Golf and the Pacific,with a view
to the establishment of water communi
cation between the Eastern and Western
worlds?
The narrowest put is forty-seven miles.
More advantageons points for tho build
ing of the canal can ba found than at ex-
aotiy the narrowest point, as along there
Is the baok bone of the line of mountains
which rise on the banks of the river Col
ville in Alaska and abruptly come to an
end on tho Straits of Magelan.
The Isthmus is laced with rivers flow
ing into either sea, and the growth, ex-
espt on the higher regions of table land
and mountain, intensely tropica!.
Along the Isthmus there were former’y
large quantities of gold found, and even
now, from the beds of the rivers, gran
nies of the precious metal are frequently
picked up. So great were the discover
ies of gold in the former times, that the
Isthmns was known in the liquid Span
ish as the Castilla de Oro.
Other mineral wealth is seta to be
baried in the mountain sides. The his
tory of tho isthmus with its opulent yield
of the ooveted metal is eventful and the
onrrentof its history is often dyed with
the blood of conquerors and the conquer
ed, It was here Morgan the Buccaneer
flourished and sacked and pillaged the
villages along its coasts and under tho
warm and tropical sun were many deeds
of rapine and bloodshed committed. One
of the most famous exploring expedi
tions was one made under Captain Strain
a few years before the war. His party
suffered immensely, a number of them
dying from the miasmatic inflaeoees of
the jangles and tropical forests traversed
in the route.
The poiiey of the Columbian Govern
ment has always been liberal toward the
cense of inter-oeesuio communication.
Encouraged K- the success of the Suez
Canal, wfcicn, v. mlo it bas hardly been as
successful in every respect as might have
been hoped, is a g eat triumph of science,
the French engineers have pushed the
matter of an inter oceanic canal to a
point where success seems imminent. The
plan selected is n triumph for the French
engineers over all others.
The latest suggestion, however,
from the brain of Captain Eads. He
proposes that in lieu of the canal, which
will cost about one hundred and fifty
million dollars, that the transfer of the
vessels be made by rail. The clan sug
gests that ten parallel traoks be laid,
drawn by so many locomotives, or more if
necessary. The tracks to met sure be
tween the outer rails some fifty feet.
Che Ehiis will be elevated to
immense oars and drawn over at a speed
of abont eight miles an hour, althongh a
maximum of thirteen to fifteen miles, it
is estimated, can be obtained. The coat
of this arrangement would not exoeed
fifty million dollars. Among the advan
tages enggeeted, is that this being an
American enterprise, would remove the
element of fear wbioh.has sprang up in
regard to the ship canal being under the
exclusive control of the French or a for.
feigners. The blow which might be given
to American manufacturers is muoh
feared by many.

Day before yesterday there arrived in
this city a quiet looking man, registering
himself as 8. J. Anderson, of Harrisburg,
Pennsylvania. This quiet looking strang
er went up to the barracks and accosted
the inmate of one of the cells as follows;
“How are you, Charles!” Instantly J,
N. Swartz, alias Ohae. A. Carl, alias I,
Newton, alias Chas. A. Norton,looked np
with a startled expression upon his face,
the next he wilted. The stranger was
the detective who, nearly two years ago,
attached the picture of a criminal to a cir
cular and sent it over the country. That
criminal was Norton; bis crime, ‘'Con
structive larceny,” in Pennsylvania par
lance, that was the orime for which he Is
wanted, but It seem3 there are others of a
baser character for whiob he may yet
have to answer. From a letter written
by his brother-in-law, J. P. Tedrowo, of
Indianapolis, Indians, a copy of which we
were permitted to inspect, we obtained a
sketch of the villainies of Norton
np to date of the document. Six time3
married, a forger, a thief, wife whippe c
and a defaulter ; these are some of the
facts famished by the letter, and it cannot
bs possible that the writer knew all hi9
villainies Bt the time of writing, or that
the criminal ceased to commit them after.
The credit of this arrest belongs to
Chief of Police Adams, whose memory
enabled him to xeoall the features of
Norton, and identify him as tho subject
of the photograph.
Deteolive Anderson left with his pris
oner last night, the requisition having

naster Albert Callaway Accidentally
Shoots Himself.
The city was thrown into a quiver of
surprise, followed by regret, yesterday
afternoon about 6 o’clock by the report
that Master Albert C. Callaway had been
found dead in bis room, at the residence
of bis father, on Flam street.
It seems young Callaway, who is a
mere lad some sixteen years of age, rooms
up stairs in his father’s residence. Yes
terday at dinner-he neemed to be cheer
ful and took dinner es usual. When he
came in he was whistling and
seemed to be in a good humor.
After dinner he went ont but it
seems retarned and went up to his room
and about halt past four o’clock he died
from the effects of a pistol shot wound-
The commission of the fatal deed was not
discovered for nearly two hoars after
ward when one of the family went acci
dentally into tho room and, finding the
corpse bathed in its own blood, gave the
alarm.
When thalifeles3 body was discovered
then it was sailed to mind that a pistol
shot had been hea'd in the bouse about
two hoars previously. It was not notic
ed muoh, and what little impression the
report made was obliterated by a very
heavy clap of thunder, which cime al
most at the instant of the report.
The body lay on its -back, the feet
slightly apart. The left hand was bloody,
as if after the unfortunate shot ha bad
endeavored to etaunch the flow of the
life strean* The face wore a beautiful
expression, the .features almost lit up
with a smile even in death. The wound
was necessarily a fatal one. The ball
entered the left breast just attbe'hipple.
ranging downward and coming ont near
the email of th9 back. Ic probably
touched the heart in its course.
Yesterday Coroner Chapman was noti
fied and be proceeded to hold an inquest,
and the following evidence wai brought
ont:
Willie Callaway, brother of tbe de-
ceased swornt I came, to dreBS to go to
the depot to meet my sister and found
brother Albert lying on the flior with
blood on the flior. Toe pistol wa? lying
at hU feet. This was 6:10 p. m. Al
bert C. Callaway bad not been on the
premises all the afternoon. A* food as
I saw the body I went down stairs and
told about it. Tommie Small was with
me.
Miss Addie Gregory sworn: When
Willie and Tommie Small came down
stairs and exclaimed that there was a man
np stairs laying dead with a pistol at his
feet, I went up at once and found that
it was Albert. £ heard tbe report tbe
time of the thunder, about 4:30 or 5
o’clock. Tuere was no oue np stairs at
tbe time that I know of. His feet were
a little apart as he now lies. He was in
a good hnmor at dinner. No one went
upstairs with him that I know of. I
know of no cense why ha should commit
the not. His health was good and his
mind sound. He must have seen in front
of the mirror.
After considering the evidence, the
jary rendered the following verdict:
We. tbe jary, find that ths deceased,
Albert C. Callaway, came to his death by
accidental shooting, with
Wesson piatoi, in his own hand.

Tao Thin.
Yesterday the rooms of a prominent
dentist of this oity were witnesses of a
remarkable and, to seme extent, a India-
reus soene. It seems that a widow lady,
lately removed to the city, had
carried an old set of teeth to the dentist
aforesaid to have them made over, upon
a ctw plate; being very poor, the dentist
charged her only half price, viz : $15 for
the j ob.
Yesterday afternoon tho iady called for
her teeth, tried them in, and begged to
be oredited for tne amount dne, statiDg
that she was wilting to put up her watch
as collateral until the money wis forth
coming. Although the dentist does busi
ness upon a strict oash basis, in consider
ation of tbe oiroumstanoes before Btated,
he consented to the arrangement. She
then ohanged her mind an^ loft the o'-
fioe, not, however, before the was required
to leave the teeth.
In abont an hour she retarned and get.
ting the teeth in her month again, sqid
she would goto a jeweler, raise fifteen
dollars on her watch, return and pay for
the teeth, when the dentist refaeihg to
let her leave the zoom in company with
h ; s work unpaid for, she badly claimed
the teeth as ner own and made a dash
for the stairs ; upon being overtaken Bhe
screamed ‘‘murder I” in an agonizing
voice, and threatened the dentist with
an exposure of the insults offered her in
the room; the gentleman relying on the
justness of his cause, and his innocence,
his wife and niece having been present
all the time, kept bis hold upon her, and
only avoided having his own work tried
upon his fingers, by a rapid inanipala'
tion of them. A police officer arrived
and after sullenly waiting a half hour on
the steps, the lady gave up the job and
retired.

Monroe Female College.
The attreetton in Forsyth this week
will bathe cjmmenaement of Monroe
Female College. Its commencements are
always of the greatest interest. The
college is in a flourishing condition and
the literary attraction?, taken a3 a whole.
Will be unsurpassed by those of any pre
vious year.
The commencement sermon will be

Hawthorne, of Montgomery, Alabama.
His sermon before .the Mercer students
last year will be remembered with gicat
pleasure in M icon as one of the most able
discourses that ba i been delivered here on

likely quite a numb sr will go npto For
sytb, especially on commencement day.
Tho hospitality of tbe Forsyth people
daring the oommenomen*', and at any
other time that the stranger comes with

crowd this year at the commencement
will bo very large. Yesterday the trains
passing through came crowded and went
away almost empty. Many young
ladies from Atlanta, Griffin, Bsrnesville,
and other points hsve already arrived.
The commencement will be brilliant not
only in regard to the exercises, bnt the
crowd of visitors.
Fluid Itifles.
This gallant old oorp3 celebrated the
Fonrtb by a short parade and the firing
of a salute of three excellent volleys. Af
ter the parade, and the enjoyment of a
glass of ecds through the courtesy of Col.
E. K. Hines, the men laid asida their
weapons, and embarking upon the street
oars, took their deparure for Tata all
Square, with oolors flying and bind play
ing. From the terminus of tbe line the
company marched tojihe Napier plaoe,
where seats and a stand had been erected.
Capi. J. L. Hardeman introduced Hon.
John P. Fort, who, in his happiest style,
read the Declaration of Independence.
At half-past one o’clock about three
hundred people, including tbe company,
their sweethoirts, sisters, oonains, and
aunts, sat down to a most bountiful feast
cf every delicacy the season afforded.
The long tables were loaded down to the
ground, and, to quote a fashionable
phrase, “literally groaned.” After din
ner the crowd engaged in dancing in the
spacious residence, till nearly 7 o’clook,
when the shades of night warned the re
vsiers away to rest.
This is the first time the company has
celebrated tbe 4th since 1851; indeed, if
Smith & \ we remember rightly, the three volleys
fired by them, yesterday on Mulberry
street were the first salute to our natal
day by any white company of this city
since tho troublesome year we have
named.
The last saluts we hear of was by
cannon fired from the spot where now
lies the foundation of the Confederate
monument, and the explosion shattered
the glass in the cld court house at the

Colonel Samuel Hall, Colonel VT. A. Lof

day morning, recommending that three
terms, in place of two a3 heretofore, be
held in this ooanty ia each year; the
terms to begin the fonrtjx .Monday in
January, the first Monday in Jane end
the fourth Monday in October.
It seems to U3 that suoh an arrange'
meet would be beneficial to all concern'
ed. I; would do away with the long, te
dious sessions of the Conrt, and mouths
of imprisonment to parsons under in
dictment. No jaror would ba compelled
to serve longer than he does now, nor
wo d the expense to the county be
greater. The recommendation comes
from gentlemen who have a g the

1JUc Sanitary Condition of onr
Jail.
Editors Telegraph A Messenger—So much
has been B&id of late concerning the punish-
ment of criminals that it is time to consider
in what way that punishment should bead
ministered and to see that jnstise bo given
the innocent as well as the guilty.
Tbeee remarks were suggested by a pro
fessional visit which the author was recent
ly reqnested to make to tho county jail.
We an know that a jail is intended for i
place of confinement only and it is not ex
pected that any one is sent there for punith-
ment, for fnqnently men are placed there
on charges of which they r.ro perfectly inno
cent. To be confined in cur j ail in its pres
ent condition ia far worse tnan to ba sent
to tho penitentiary, and if a man is charged
with a minor offence it is bolter to plead
guilty, even tbongh he be innocent and be
sentenced to hard labor for a few years tlnn
to bo shat np in the county prison awaiting
i dal for half that time. If a person is not
blessed with a good constitution, a year in
onr jail will usually m«ko him a complete
wreck, both physically and mentally. In
making these charges I do cot wish to cast
blame on any of tho ooanty officers, for I do
not think it is their fault. Tho unhealthy
location of the jail is one causo of theso
hardfh'ps. Anoihsr is, very imperfect ven
tilation. While wa ait in onr homes and of
fices with onr doora wide open and complain
bitterly of the hot weather, wonld it not bo
well to think for a at ;ment ot what the pcor
wretches in onr priaon endure ? The room
in which the patient I-visited was confined
bad one small cross-l arred window, high np
from the floor and a similar opening in tho
door. Three other prisoners were in the
Mine room. It did not contain a singlo
piece of f nmiture. The diet may be as good
as can be given with tbe present allowance,
but from what was told ns, it is certainly
very i lr.;n. Would it not be well to pay the
keeper a salary and make such appropriation
for fo:d as th« case may demand ?
These remarks have been confined to the
Bibboounty jail, bet I have reason to be
lieve that many others throughout the Stato
aro equally d;Bsrviog of con-ure. Of course
a prisoner is cot expected to be furnished
with every comfort of life, bnt ho should at
least be given its nooesrilies. Will not the
intilligent people of Macon and of B.bb
couuiy in gener. 1, show thoir love cf that
wbioh is just and right by changing in soma
way the present state of affairs.

than any other year in the past five.
The students have paid greater attention
to their duties, and tho discipline has
been easy and readily enforced, but few

tion. Chaplin, in his opening speech,

quiry. He pointed out that the fature
fate of British agtionllute was dependent
npon the cost of production in America.
If the cost of importation fell below the
cost of pioduction at home, the zniu of
British agriculture was not far distant
The Liberals, suoh as Braasey, MaoDnff
and Duff, blamed the British land sjeum
and game laws for the depression.
Their arguments were summed up in a
speeoh by Bright, who warned the land
owners that the competition of the United
States would go on increasing, and tho
only way of meeting it was to get rid of
tbe stupid and mischievous hgi nation
regulating the tenure and transfer of land.

tive measures, bnt both the Marquis of
Hartington and tho Government as rep
resented by Viscount Sandoc, Conserva
tive member for Liverpool, and Sir Staf
ford Nnrthcoie, Chancellor of the Ex
chequer, declared that no cause had been

would never bo sanctioned. The Mar
quise of Hartington attributed the de*
pretsiun primarily to the bad season.
