MACON, GA., AO'S. 26, 1879. jjill 11 —Ibe Emperor of Germany's eldest grind- son received sn enthusiastic ovation fr.m Binn students list month on finishing his education there. —None Trowbridge, whose two sisters re cently hinged themselves in Chicago bo« ciusothey dreaded poverty, is hopelessly ilL The tragedy prostrated her, and for two days she did not oit or drink a partblo. Bhe is now insano and dying. Poisoxeso the Po.’E.—Bo its, Aug. 21.— The Popo received an anonymous letter from Biltimore, warning against attempts to poison him. The lettor contains so many references to tho Pope’s private life that it Is believed it was posted in America merely as a blind. An investigation is in progress. —An innocent-looking young min, travel ing on & train from St. Paul to Chicago, was observed suddenly to reach up and pull the bell-rope. The train, of course, came at once to a standstill, while conduo- tot and porter raahed into the car to ascer tain the cause for the detention. ‘Gentle- men,’ explained the y<rang man, ‘yon must exjuse me. I wanted the porter, who was In the ‘forard’ end of the car, to mako up my bed, and thought that if I palled the rope that would fetch him.’ Peach 6mpj£ET.T3.—The shipment of pea ches Tuesday over the Delaware railroad was the heaviest of the season, 233 car loads being sent to various points north, east and west. Thus far there hava boon 1,652 car loads shlppeu, which is Within 330 of the quantity marketed by rail at tbo same date In £877. It was expected tho shipments yesterday would reach 330 car loads, against 158 oar loads same day in 1817, and tho ship- ments for the balanoo of the week are ex peeled to be extraordinarily heavy. —JX.de Desecps gives It up. The sub* ssription for shares of Panama Canal stock Is so dismal a tailors that the subscribers, if there are any, have boon informed that they msy withdraw their deposits. The curious farther announcement is made that ‘SI de Leeseps will sonn goto America’—the last place for him to corns with such a scheme and that ‘on his return he will set the com' pany on Us feet.’ Tho promise implies matchless effrontery on his part orincin- celvahlo credulity on tho part of the public. —Marie Christine, Archduchess or Austria and future Queen of Spain, is not handsome, but the has a vivacious disposition, brilliant cyos, a most captivating gift of conversation. She Is extromely fond of dancing—in spito of her position as tho crczlerod and mitred Abbees of the Noble Chapter of Prague. Bhe has twelve oanonesses under bar Juris diction, and at great ceremonials maybe soon bearing ths insignia of her high ofilce and wearing a tall head-dress which reminds oaeofthe Epioopal mitre. Her situation under tho statutes fired by Marie Therese brings her 20,000 florins a year.

An Exocn Ar.ous Eo casco is Nashvill i. —It ia in novels, says ths American, and not in every day life we hoar of a woman with two husbands. Them is ono in Nash ville, snd her name-as she gives it now, Annie Morbley. Bhe yesterday filed with the Circuit Court Clerk a petition for a divorce from one of her husbands, John Stokes. The way it happened is this: In 1889, she married John Stokes, who lived with her about a year, and being infatuated with sol* dler life ho j eined tho srmy, and has for the past nlno years been traveling out West with the army. His wife never heard from him after he left. Believing that ho had been killed, and aftor waiting for fire years she was wooed and won by ono Morbley with whom she now lives. Last week Stokes re turned to Nashville, and was much surpilaed to see tho turn things hal taken. Stokes wanted his wife, bni she preferred to live with Morbley and ebo filed tho bi’l for a divorce. —Mr. Sprague, says the Washington Post, now manifesto a disposition to hold Senstor Uonklingto farther accountability for his sayings and doings with reference to his wife. Still, at the point of ths shot-gnn, he now proposes to demand a certificate of good character for Mrs. Spragae at the fes tive Bosoce’s own hands. Tnero would seem to be no reason why Mr. Oonkling should not se'ss this opportunity to crawl out of his aad dilemma with some little reputation left, with eagerness, exespt that of natural aversion to the somewhat peremptory man ner in which the chance is presented him. Pet, as he has played the coward in tbo most conspicuous way twice already this year, there ia really no excajoto doubt that he will oveutually decide to entei the same role fa tho present instsnoo. If Mr. Sprague in sists, Mrs. Spragae will probably be famish ed frith the necessity vindication. —Tho Sydney CN. 8- W.) correspondent of tho London Times writes: ‘It is a great thing to get control of the markot, and the first thing is to get a good Tooling, and tho Americans cm certainly pushing for that with an energy which at least deserves sue • com. Our railway department is patting together tbreo largo new locomotives from Philadelphia. Their design is the result of close personal observation of oar precise wants by ono of the partners In the firm of Baldwin & Oo. I am not prepared to say whether theso engines «T. prove In every xo3peot better than those which we got from England, but I do not remember anyEn- Iisb firm taking the earns pains to etudy what we want to deal meat successfully with —the ateep gradients and sharp curvos of our railway on tho Blue Moanta ! ua. Per haps it Is not worth the whUo of the English makors to attond to such potty deta'ls, but tho Amarieius think differently.’ Ceuta and Jap.n Tho secret of much of the distinguished recaption which both the Chincss and ths Japanese governments have extended to Gan. Grant, says the Baltimore Ena, is revealed in the fact that thoaepowers are likely to go to war with ono another upon tho question of tho ownorahip of the Loo-choo islands. Theso islanders have long maintained a sort of semi-Indspandence under tho joint protection of China and Japan, paying tribute to both. BeoenUy the Japanese have taken possession of the Island?, established a new form of adminis tration, and notified China that hereafter no tribute would be paid. The Emperor of China and the Tsung-li-Tamen have advised Japan that this is a violation of an estab- lished understanding and an invasion of light which will notbs submitted to, and both powers are evidently preparing for war tad strengthsn'ag their navies with persist ent industry. Tho supposed weight of Gen. Grant's good offlQM, in the meantime, bavo been what both governments have baen en deavoring to secure, with a vague Oriental idea that by courting him the friendly dispo sition of the United States might In some way be secured.

She has, as we suppose, a white popula tion of three to four thousand of all sorts, and a negro population of at leaBt sixteen thousand, many of them refagees from plantation labor in quest of free ra tions. She is a city of vaoant ware houses, stores, ahop3 and dwelling, and all depositories of valuable goods, fnrnl- tare, eto., necessarily without any polioe protection adequate to the emergency. Meanwhile, under the direction of the State Board of Health, and as a matter ot transparently wisa precaution, It has been determined not to ieene rations in the city. If this floating and destitute population will go into the camps pre« pared for them, they will bo fed and oth erwise provided for; but as a sanitary measure, it is indispensable that the in fected city 6hall be emptied of its popu lation as nearly as possible. Bat this population refuses to leave the city, and demands rations under violent mnnaoes of helping themselves by the strong arm, if rations are longer withheld. On the other hand, the whites and orderly ne« gross are strengthening the military and police force, as fas’ as they can, and preparing themselves for a very possible ollision. There seems to bo altogether too good a chance for trouble. The temptation to violence is strong. The opportunities for a successful raid on a large scale are un doubted. Some robberies and incendiary fires have already been accomplished, and a judicious use of the torch coupled with lively hostilities by a largely eupeior fores of vagrant and disorderly negroes might well give the champions of law and order more work than they could conveniently do; while,unfortunately,outside reinforce ments would bo with the plunderers. The situation is awkward and dangerous. The Growing Cotton Crop. Cotton his bean hardening within the past few diy3 in Liverpool, probably un der ths icflaenc9 of mere reasonable opinions in relation to th9 probable magnitude or tho growing orop. For reasons uni u>va to as, it seems to have been gen.r.lly assumed that a *'phenome nal'’ orop is a thing certain, whereas few conditions exist to warrant the expecta tion of even an average crop. Those no toriously nnpropitioas era the oontinned wet waather—Iha backwardness of ths plant, and the prevalence of rnst and cat erpillar, particularly in the mist produc tive regions. We think tho fond expectations of a largo orop must soon ba dispelled, and prices reaot a little. The crop cannot b9 large, and may well bs very considerably diminished from that of last year. A Ktnurkahts HJDsrvv* m»—tor In the great AUantio coast storm or last Sunday night end Monday morning, tho Atlantic Hotel, at Beaufort, N. C., was partially submerged, and finally dashed to pieoes. A correspondent of the Wilmington Review, giving an account of it, say?, the storm had been brewing all Sanday, and bnrat upon them about 9 o’clock Sanday night. It grew stronger and stronger until about 4 o’clock in the morning, when it wa3 at its highest. Mr. Williams retired abont 2 o’clock, and abont 3 o’clock some one awoke him saying he should not lose the grandeur ol! the storm. At that time the water was within two and a half feet of the piazza on tho first flior. After looking around and taking in the situation,he repaired to the room doors of the ladies in his party, and told them to get np, and then went through the house waking the other guests. He again went down etaire, and found that tho tide had risen very rapidly, and that the water was then abint waist deep on the first floor of the building. Hurrying back to the Bleeping apartments of the ladies, he found that they had only partly dreBeed themselves bat harried them oat as soon aa possible. Some ran oat in wrappers, others barefc it, none of them carrying anything more than what they had on. It was a rush for life, and no time for gathering clothing, jewelry or soavenirs. They were plaoed in the billiard room, some distance in the rear of the hotel, when Mr. Williams started back to help rescue other ladies, and try to save what little of their property he eonld. Daring this time the tide had risen from 15 to 20 feet and it was then up to tho second story windows ot tho building. Just at this time two young men from Newbern, Messrs. Guioa and Disosway, were seen to throw a mattress ont of a third-story window on the anrging billows below and then immediately plange into the water. They gained tho mattress and by its aid succeeded in making the shore. The tide was rapidly rising and the ladies were moved from the billiard room and as they waded ont tho building euo- cnmbsd to the fnry of the waves and wind. Almost immediately afterwards tho At* lantic Hotel was seen to careen and in a moment there was notone timber left standing on the other. The hotel seems to have been fall of visitors, all ot whom, bat one, escaped with their tires in very Imperfect oos- tnmes, bat with the loss of all their bag gage. They retreated to tho Ooean Ho tel, bnt that wa3 soon unroofed and then the gassts of both bonsos took their etand on tbo nearest high ground and watched [the storm till daylight. Bab- lequently same of ths tranks and valu ables wore recovered In a depreciated condition.

The Now Orleans Picayune Bays: Of late the Southern cotton markets have broken down, and quotations have been reduced at a rapid rate. At this season of the year, especially with quarantine difficulties impending or actually existing holders are exposed to local inconvenien ces, and the business is of such a char acter as to scarcely afford a basis for quo tations,the offerings being mainly of small lots and sales meagro. New crop cotton has made its appearance in Texas in larger proportions than was expected. Thts.is a late orop,and with the pinch for supplies in Europe, the position depended upon the extent of receipts at Southern seaboard markets daring the eaily months. Earopean spinners would bo in a very awkward predicament in Octobe T and November, were the American crop movement to the seaboard retarded from any oanse whatever oa account of the email stock they have left to work on. The disastrous drought which ha3 oc curred in Texae, foroing tho plant to pre mature development and furnishing ear ly cotton for the market, though great ly reducing the ultimate yield, whioh must tell seriously on the final crop ont* turn in a State producing so larag a per centage of the aggregate growth of ket. Toes fay’s receipts of 452 bales ot new crop at Galveston set the New York sharpers to calculating, and 25.0C0 was figured as the amount of new cotton that port wonld furnish daring the month of Augast. The subsequent day’s small receipts caused a rally, and yesterday’s figures a relapse. As it is now a ques tion of “bales," and ths speculators fear the aolnil staple, though'in imagina tion they handle so many millions of it, tho prospect of early cotton has causac demoralization. However, we are far from thinking that planters aro to be prejudiced by the (turn the market has taken. If we start the year with aver age rates tho result will be more satis factory to producers. Last year the bulk of our crop was sold at or below the cost of production. Speculators rtoaived the benefit of the rise a little later on, and manufacturers were helpsd over a very trying period. This season wo are likely to havo a dif ferent order of things. The world’s sur plus supply of cotton, accumulated dur ing tho palmy daye of Indian acd Brazil ian production, has been swept away, and we shall start tbo now year with scanty stocks m Europe, and a demand sufficient to absorb a large American crop that wo are likely to furnieh. Fiom tho planting season to the present time the American crop has fared worse than last season The small increase in acreage has been far more than counterbalanced by the leas favorable condition, and as we enter upon tho critiosl period, that of picking, the conditions are again changing for ‘.he worse ia comparison with last year. - Tho old proverb, “A dry season for a good cotton crop,” like all other proverbs, is only half a truth. A dry spring is too apt to be followed by a wet autumn. A ML£A MINUTE* What an Old Engineer Bays Abont Banning at That Speed. N. Y.

Few locomotives have driving wheels over five feet, and I have my doubts whether a five foot wheeler can bo pushed a mile a minute. People have a very errone jns idea of the speed of railway trains. We are not going sew more than thirty.five miles an honr, and this is very fast. Few tra'ns make this speed.

It was when I was bnt 18 years of age, I was an engineer then, in charge of a fine six foot-wheel locomotive. There were a lot of railroad mognla on board, and the object was to make the best time we could. They were to ring the gong when tho speed was a mile a minute.

THE NAVAL CADETSHIP. The Appointment mill Undecided. The Board of Examiners were engaged yesterday in examining the papers of the applicants for tbs naval cadetship, submitted at the competitive examina tion held on Thursday last. Their deri sion np to last night was not made, as their labors had not ended. The claas which has jnst passed tbe examination ordeal is one of the bright est that has ever contested for the posi tion. It is pronounced by Vi-nfppaoc W, M. Williams, who has been engaged as a member of the Board of Examiners in a number of these contests, prononnees the present class the best that ever ap peared before him. The labor reqnired of the members of the Board are very great, involving the grading of the qnestions prepared by themselves first, and then grading, one by one, the answers submitted by tbe candidates. There has been nearly a ream of legal cap written by the appli cants. It is tbonght, from the revela tions of tbe papers so far examined, tba* the oonlest will be close between many of the young men. The oommittee will not know the name of the sncoessfal competitor nntil a derision has been reaohed, and the sealed envelopes con taining the names of the contestants are opened. The interest in tho city iB quite gener al, as many of the bays applying have many friends who are anxious for their Bnccess. We regret. that each ono could not receive an appointment and that nine are doomed to disappointment. The decision of the board will be reechcd on to-morrow afternoon or evening. COUNTY COURT; Tits Corn Thief Sentenced. Yesterday, in tho County Ccnrt, the case of the Stato against Lewis Bryan, tho darkey who was arreBted on last Thursday for stealing corn from his em ployer, Mr. J. F. Binfield, was tried. The evidence fully sustained the report el- ready made of the case, and the gnilt of the darkey was very olearly and conclm sivoly proven. Mr. Barfield prosecuted the ease. The circumstances, as detail ed from the witness stand, showed thBt the dray load of oorn was driven into tbe alley nonnesting Fourth acd Fifth etrcetB, near Plam, and those tho theft wu3 com mitted. Judge Holt, after hearing the c-ie, sentenced Bryan to pay a fine of one hundred dollars or to serve on the chain- gang of the county eleven months. It is probable ho will be forced to oboosethe latter alternative and contribute his ser. vices to tho county for the above men tioned length of time. Thq amount of stealage from Mr. Barfield by the drayi man cannot be estimated as he has been in his employ some time. Another case, rather singular than otherwise, was disposed of. It came np from tho Rutland diatriot and was againBt a colored man by tho dame of Ben Pat terson, tbe warrant charging him with “turning a woman ont of doors.” It seems some time since he compelled hia wife t • leave his house. A warrant was taken out against him for the offense as stated above. As no offense of that description is laid down by the code Judge Holt dismissed the proceedings without going into the evidence and sent the prisoner on his way rejoicing. An Escaped Cunrict Captured. Yesterday evening there arrived in the city Mr. J. E. Daokwortb, one of the guards of the convict camp of Colonel C. B. Howard, of Everett station, in charge of Jim Walker, a colored convict who cs caped two weeks since. He was captur ed abont two and a half miles of Zebu Ion, in Pike connty, on Thursday about 2 o’clcck, In the afternc on. Walker escaped hith two others a* out two weeks sioce from the field in whioh they wo 10 wn.k.ng. Tue dogs were im- mediately pat on their track and ever* took them. They however, captured the blotdconcds by feeding to them a portion of their o#n food which had been left over at their last meal, and reserved for this purpose. Mr. Dackwortb bs3 been on the traok of Walker ever sinoo, and only succeeded in overtaking him at the time mentioned. He was kuownby them me of Bill Adeti. When he saw ibat he wa3 abont to be captured ho drew a knife and then ran, foroing the gusrd to shoot him twice, both shots taking tffeot in his hips near the small of his back. Vy to last efening neither of the balls had been extracted, the wounds nit giving maoh Dain, and the darkoy reqae3’.ing thst no attention be paid them until be reaohed the camps. The prisoner was lodged in the connty jail, was well oared for last night and will be carried on to-day.

Oa Friday night there was, wo learn, a good deal ot excitement in Brunswick, over an attempted assassination of one of its worthy and wealthy citizen, Mr. J. Miohealson. Some weeks since, Mr. Miohealson wop burned ont by the extensive conflagra tion, which occurred in that city, and which was noted in this paper. The firm of Michealeon & Brother was the heaviest loser. Sinee the] fire they have been on a lively lookout for goods stolen at the fire. The whereabouts of some of the goodB were discovered, and a. raid was made on the houses of several white men of the place, and part of the pilfer ed stock recovered.. Thia has created a considerable amount of feeling in certain qnartors. ’On Friday evening as Mr. Miehasison was leaving his residence, which is in the center of the city, he was attacked by an unknown party and dangerously wounded with a knife, beingBtabb’d in a number of places. xt thought he would not live through the night. The excitement in IBrAnswick .was very great. Three parties were arrested soon after the cut ting, on suspicion, bnt it is thought tbe guilty party escaped. How to Dlsinfccr, The following is a simple method of disinfecting within the reach of all: Take an old oyater can or other tin box of convenient size, make two holes in the upper edge opposite each other, and throngh them fasten a pieco of wire to form a handle. Let the wire extend abont a foot- and a half above the can. Pat a small quantity of snlphnr into the can and on the snlphnr poor a little alcoboL Set the aloohol on fire and let the enp down into the well or other place needing disinfection by mean3 of a string attached to a wire and let it remain there till the snlphnr barns oat. This process should be repeated two or three times a week. The sulphuric arid ga3 generated will effectually destroy every germ of malaria with which it cimee in ointact. No one should breathe any of the fames or gas from tbe snlphnr, and they should be confined n.3 much as pos sible to the place being disinfected. Dramatic.
