A number of House bills were taken np, read the first time and referred to appro priate committees. Several Honse bills vere read the second time. BILLS ON THIBD BEADING. A bill to define lobbying, and prescribe tbe punishment therefor. The Commit tee on the Jadioiary recommended its passage by substitute, which was read. A substitute offered by Mr. Clements, of the 41th, for tho substitute of the Committee, was read. Mr. Clements briefly stated the reasons why ho preferr ed toe snbstitnte be had offered to that offered by the Committee. He thought the substitute of the com mittee went too far, and made criminal that which should not be 60 considered. The right of petition iB sacred, and etould be protected. The substitute is calculated to thiow suspicion on honest ofioita. Mr. McDaniel, Chairman of the Judi ciary Committee, favored the substitute. It had been oarefully prepared and could be easily carried out, arguing ably for it. ' Mr. Ciaik defined hia position that he did not desire any curtailment of the rights of the citizen to approaoh a Leg islator in a proper manner. The eubsti- tnte of the committee, he thought am ply provides for an execution of the law while it does not deprive anybody of any right or privilege. On a question so delicate, concerning a ciime eo difficult of definition, legislation must ba guard ed with care. The sibatitute offered by the committee brings np every change that could be wiehed for a bill cn each a IlljiCt. Mr. Cummings said lie was opposed to the bill m general and detail. He would vole for the substitute of Mr. Clemente first, bnt if that was adopted he wonld vote againet the passage of it u a bill. Ur, McDaniel said lobbying is well de wed 1l law, and has long been defined in English law. A decision of the Supreme Court of tbe United States has clearly de fined what lobbying is. The Constitution d:dues it to ba a crime, and tbe substi- tote of the Committee defines how it •tail be punished. Alter farther remarks by Mr. Mc Daniel, the rules were suspended, Mr. McDaLiel yielding the floor. Tbe Committee on Enrollment made a ttport, which was read. Hon, Thomas Wicker and Judge D. B. Howell were invited to seats on the floor.

The Atlanta Post brags of a hen in that place that has been laying every day since Jane* 5tb, and is still at it-. Up to date she has tamed out 216 eggs Several communications in the Atlan ta Dispatch urge more investigations, “a general overhauling,” as one of them says, to include the executive office from Bullock’s time down, Bnd the accounts of all tho pubiio printers during the same time, ; *• ; - - Nearly Scalped.—Last Friday night, says the Constitution, “about ten o’clock, one mile south of Big Shanty, a country man named John Oalu, while lying in a drunken eleep, with his head npon a cross tie, within a few inches of tho track, re ceived a painful scalp wound fr«m the engine pilot of the south bound passen ger, on the Western and Atlantic Bail- road. The engineer did not see the un fortunate man until it was too late to stop the train before passing him. He backed to tbe scene of tho accident and found the poor fellow standing by a tree. He was oarefully placed on board and put eff near his home. The man said that as soon as .he was struck “he suspi- cicned something wrong.” 1 No blame at tached to the engineer. The Cedartown Advertiser hears that a tiger cat four feet long and weighing fifty peunds, was killed on a farm five miles from Dalton'one day last week.

Cause—borrowed a few wa ter melons from the patch of Mr. Jack Brcoks when he was not there.

The News says there were two incen diary fires at Savannah, Saturday sight, but fails to report the losses on acoount of the lateness of the honr. - B. B. JBullock, says the New3, has published a card m the Atlanta Consti tution denying that the Bepublicans of Georgia are exultant over the proposed impeachment of Comptroller Goldsmith. So far from rejoicing, he says that they all feel intense sorrow of the heart for tho stigma 6ast upon the good name ot the State, and ho hopes the accused may have a fair trial and if fonnl guilty pun ished, but if not honorably acquitted. This from Bullock. Oh my! How won derfully virtuous we have become, to be sure. But at one time Bullock was not eo anxious for officials charged with grave offenses to be tried. If we mis take net, he once rap away to avoid a trial himself. Mr. Stephens gets this rap from a correspondent of the Bornsaville Gazette: “We think Mr. Stephens entirely fail ed In bis Atlanta speeoh to discern and discuss the most important issue that was made up at tbe extra session of Congress, to-wit: the right of the Federal Govern ment to control eleotions in the Slates by posting soldiers at the polls. This issue was dUtintly made, and we confess our surprise at Mr. Stephens’ omission to dis cuss it as tho most vital matter affeoting our government. The Badioals do not wdnt to go before the country on this issue—they would evade it willingly, and Mr. Stephens’ speeoh is mnoh calculated to aid them.

We quote the following from the Ad vertiser : Let the Senate be Cleared.—As one of tho people we should like to ?.ee the Georgia Senate clear itself ot all inter ested parties before it proceeds farther with the impeachment trial of- Comp* trailer General Goldsmith. It is a well- known faot that there are a number of tho members of this body, whioh is to ait as a court iu this trial, who have been engaged in the wild land speculation#, and it is therefore reasonable to suppose that they have been parties, either di rectly or indirectly, to some of the very transactions whioh constitute the leading oharges now preferred against the Comptroller. Senators who have been engaged In these wild land txaneaotions, whether it be to the extent of negotiating with the Comptroller for fi. fas. issued by him or not, are not competent to sit as a court in this trial, and should bs politely in vited to retire during the entire proceed ings. We do not want to be understood as charging any Sonata* with being in col lusion with the Comptroller in the illegal corrupt transactions, bnt even if they unwittingly end in good faith bought wild land tax fi. fas. from that officer, they are thereby made interested parties in all legislation growing out of these transactions, and are no more oompeteut to sit impartially as a court of impeach ment in the trial of the Comptroller than a man wonld be to sit on tbe jury in the trial of a case to which he was a party. The Atlanta Republican gets out an extra this week on the strength of the wild land frauds and the impeachment proceedings against Comptroller Gold smith. “Thank God,” exclaims the Be publican, in a bead-line, “that there is no Radicals in it!” Well, we say, thank God tbere were no Badioals in the State Honse to get in.it.

Brady, a lawyer of that town, the following facts: : Eleven years ago, James N. Hunt, of Hancock county, -who had never married, made a will, duly executed, declaring C. W. Dubose, Esq., exeoutor, and leaving, first, a special legacy of $500 each to three of the children, and the .residue of his property to his colored mistress, the mother, and her eight children, share and akare alike. Bobert Miller, a colored barber of Americas, having married one of the girls, employed Mr. Brady to go to Sparta and represent his wife-’s inter est. While there, his services were en gaged by another heir. The property consists of ono plantation in Hancock, one house and lot in Sparta, 86 shares of Georgia railroad stock, 71 shares Central railroad, besides $2,500 in money and solvent debts. It is further said that the deceased was the owner of $1,000 worth of Augusta Factory stock and oth er property. His brother and relatives will contest the will, it 13 thought.

Murder in a Convict Camp.—The News has the following aosount of a hor rible affair which ocourred at a convict camp opposite Savannah,last Wednesday: Stiles Burges and Lorenea Littlejohn, both negroes, had been sick and were on the convalescent liet. Their general conduct being good, they were relieved of their shackles and allowed the liberty of the yard, being in charge of the hos pital steward. THE attempt. About six o’clock on Wedueed ty even ing, just before “knocking off” work, Burges managed, to Becure a loaded double-barrel gun from the guards’ tent, and suddenly presenting it at the breast of the steward, ordered ' him into the “jail” (the place reserved for imprison ment), threatening to blow his head off if be offered reaistanoe. He also threat ened to shoot three negro convict women if they did cot keep quiet. Tha womeD, however, avoided him, and running out, sounded the alarm, whioh attraoted the attention of the overseer, who started in pnrsuit ot Burges aud the other convict named Littlejohn, who, at the first cry, fled in the direction of Back river. Several of tbe convicts followed in the pursuit and endeavored to stop tbe fugi tives. Tbe overseer, who,unfortunately, was unsrmed, euaceeded in overtaking Burges, who then turned and threatened to kill him if ho advanced a step-further, and raised the gun to fire. The overseer, Thomas Haakin?, waa compelled to re treat, when Burges pursued him, and would have fired upbn him, had not two of the conviots rushed in direotly between them, compelling him to - withhold his fire. BLEW HIS BRAINS OUT. While BurgeB was endeavoring to get a shot at Haskins, a negro conviot, named Prince Wrett, approached him,calling out to him at tbe same time not to shoot, and apparently was striving to get near enough to Barges. When Wrott was within about thirty feet of Barges the latter leveled the gun and discharged it, literally blowing the poor fellow's brains ont, the entire load entering his head. BurgeB then deoamped, and succeeded in reaohing the river and making hia es- oape. During this-exoltement Lorenz J Little john, who, it-is inferred, was Informed a regard to the determination of Barges to endeavor to regain his liberty, effected bis escape. It is thought both the con- viols sucoseded in crossing Baok river dnring the night, and landing safely in Sonth Carolina.

TBE CVTECURA REMEDIES, Some Facte retarding Them— Mho Stairea Them and what is monglit ot Them by tbe urog Trade—Interview oi a Times Reporter with Peter Van SchaacJCf Esq. From the Chicago Times. To enable ths Times to famish its readers with some reliable information regarding the Cntloara remedies, whioh are now at tracting so mnoh public attention, a reporter called yesterday upon Mr. Peter YanScnaack, Stevenaon A Oo., wholesale and retail drug gists, corner Lake and Dearborn streets, when the following facts were elicited: B.—WUl you oblige the raiders of the Time* by answering a few qaeetions regard ing the Cuticura remedies? Mr. Tan 8.—Certainly; fire away. B.—Do they sell well ? Mr. Yau 8.—The sale of ths Outicure, Outicura Resolvent, and Cuticiva Soap have been unprecedented. B—Wnat reasons do yon give for so large seals? Mr Van 8.—I give four reasons. First, they are original and revolutionary in their composition and mode of treatment. Second, they undoubtedly possess great curative pro perties. Third, there are thousands upon thousands of rick and suffering who have tried and fonnd wanting the usual remedies and modes of treatment, and whs are ready to weloome a really great and euocereful medicine. Fourth, tbe price of them ie with in the meant of every invalid. B.—Are your large sales of these medi cines through your agents ? Mr. Van b—Mb; they are legitimate mall orders. We employ no travelers on the road—are fundamentally opposed to that way of selling goods—thv retailer has to aland scoh expenses, and such staple goods as these require no one to force them off. B Do .you .class .them as patent medi cines? Mr. Tan 8.—I do not. They are proprie tary, eo far as their aim os are concerned, these being held as trade-marks; but their composition, as you will learn from ihls cir cular, may be obtained by any regular phy sician who desire* to use them in hie prac tice simply by applying to Wesks A Potter. B —Oan yon tell ua something about this firm? Mr. VanS.—-Weeks & Potter are. import ers, wholesale druggists and chemists, and for twenty-five yean have been the foremost bouse in the trade in New England. B.—It is popularly suppoeel that adver tising wifi sell most anything, regardless of. merit. Is it true ? Mr. Van 8.—No. A remedy falsely claim leg to possess virtnee of which it Is in fact destitute, will surely fail. No reputable firm—and druggists are the mast competent j adges—would think of risking fame and fortune on any medicine unless it had, under the most trying oircums ances, proved itself to. possess extraoi dinary medicinal value. The expense attending t the introduction of such remedios ie enoimouts. A fortune mart be spent before any return oan be expected. If, after a wide distribution, they are found to possess the viriuee claimed for them, these who have been cured will recommend them one to another, and thus make them remunerative. When a man balks hia state ments with his own money, you may gene rally rely upon thsin. Shis, Weeks A Potter are doing. ' B.—Have they ever before prepared reme dies for popular use ? Mr. Yah 8.—I believe not.' They are, like ourselves, agents for a great many, but we think these are the first that they prepare themselves. It Is but ones in a lifetime that a discovery is made of a remrd; that scoh a firm as Weeks A Potter (are willing to stake reputation and fortune on. B.—Are their proepeots flittering, or other wise? Mr./Van 8.—Very flattering. As I said before, the remedies undoubtedly poesesa great merit. And, besides, they treat blood BEd skin diseases according to a new and thoroughly rational plan, that must take a firm hold on the oonfidenoe ot those who suffer from chronio diseases of the b’otd, skin and scalp.

A day or two ago a lady living on Duffield street, Detroit, waa summoned to the door to see a boy about 12 years of age, wbo had a cheap hat-raok to sell. When she'appeared he said: “Madam, my father is dead, and won’t you please buy this hat-raok fer 25 centc?” She was sorry that his father waa dead, but she didn’t want the hat-rack. The next day the same boy and the same hat- raok returned; and the boy said: “Madam, won't you please buy this hat-rack, for my mother is dead, too.” She was eo Borry that his mother was also dead that she gave him a slice of bread and butter, but she didn’t want to invest in a hat-rack. Two days later the boy called again, having the same iden tical rack uoder his arm, and he looked the lady straight in the eyes and said: “Madam, won’t yon please buy this hat- rack, for my sister is alio dead ?” ‘My goodness! is It possible that yon have lost father, mother and sister in one week ?” exclaimed the lady. “Yea, mum.” “And whatailsd them?” she atked. “I dan no, mum, bat I kinder feel it in my bones that unless I sell this ere hat- rack afore Saturday night death will use up all the rest of our family and be go ing for other folks.” “It I bay this raok of you will you tell me the truth ?” ‘•Yes, mum.” She handed him a quarter and asked : “Did your father, mother or sister die this week?” The boy looked at her, hesitated, and then laid the quarter on the i ailing, pick ed up his hat-rack, aud said as he went down tbe steps: T only git five oente oommish for sell ing these racks, and I can’t afford to kill off three of tbe family and resnrreot ’em again for aBy each Sggert Goodbye, mnm—it’s a square back-down on me 1” AU the world over, baby goverrs.

White, of Jas per, Texa?, sent to Mr. G. A. Mil)?, Secretary .Galves ton Cotton Exchange, two samples of worm-proof lint cotton to be submitted to the Classification and Quotation Commit tee for their views, etc., tho samples be ing numbered I and 2. Mr. Mills has kindly sent ns samples ot the name, whioh we have reoeived to-day, and which any one is at liberty to examine. We take from the Galveston News cf Au- gust 2 the following statement, giviLg the result of the examination by ibe Claarifi- oation Committee, and some interesting facts with regard to this cotton: The committee, after a careful inspec tion of tbe sample?, report both sta ples of fair length, remarkable strength, and very silky—No. 2 tbe best. This cotton baa been produced by Mr. White after some sixteen or seventeen years of labor and study by amalgam&ticg ordi nary ootton with a weed—the weed and his process are his secret. Ha is new In oonesposdenoe with the Akiioultural De partment at Washington City, with a view to the Government paying him for his discovery, and teen making known his prooes?, wbiob, he says, ia to simple that any tec-year oid child can do it—that its simplicity leeks ridiculous to bim hew. Mr. White farther states that the weed with whioh this cotton ia mix- a was never known to be eaten by worm or insect of any kind. Tbe writer eximined the col ten grow ing, tho stalks were large and healthy, a brownish red color, the leaf resembling ordinary cotton, with a very rank weed odor, the bolls were larger than ordinary cotton and well filled with lint. In the oentre of each boil there is a small pod containing, evidently, the seed of the weed. When the boll is fully opened this pod of seed is also opened, and the seed drop out, leaving the lint cotton in the bciL The bolls will all mature with in a few days of each other. This the planter could remedy by planting at different time?. Mr. W. says tbe ootton oan bs picked within ona hundred days after planting. Mr. White has taken stalks of ordinary oottcu with tbe ootton- worms at wotk upon them, plaood them in end alongside of hie cotton so that the worms could easily get on his cotton, bnt in no inatasoe did they cut any ot the leavee, stalk or boll of his cotton. He has gathered tbe worms from other cot- ton'stalkf and placed them on hi? ootton with the same result, aud feels very con fident that no worm will ever touch it. Should Mr. White’s dissovery prove to be what he claims for it, absolutely worm- proof—and upon this point he has no fears—tha value and importance of the diecovery cannot easily be estimated, es pecially in the old o.tton belt. “ Laugh uuj Grow tel."
