TUB CBAUGZ OF BKIBSRT. Manager Turner then offered in evi- denoo a copy of the letter which Gold smith endeavored to have signed by the committee on the Wild Land Inveetiga ting Committee. This letter, it will be remembered, wa3 an effort on tho part of the Comptroller to obtain an exoneration on the part of the committee. Manager Tamer stated that the origi nal letter was lost, but offered the prin ted form in tho article. Counselor Hopkins stated that there were two names to tne original letter. Manager Tamer then said the signs tnres were on an addendum, bnt to be fair he would introduce Senator Candler (o prove all facts connected with the let ter.

Senator Oumming moved to reconsider the action of tbe chamber in voting down the resolution to print the whole pro- coodings of the impeachment trial of Comptroller-General Goldsmith, inclu ding the evidence, speeches of counsel for tho-defenae, of the Honse managers, and of tho Senators. Senator Camming thought the trial ehonld ba reported in fall, as the people of the State wonld look to Senators as tntors in the trial of the impeachment. Senator Spaer was opposed to the reconsideration on the ground of expense; that, according to a calcu lation tho Senator had made, the daily expanse of such a publication, at the rate of 20 cents for a hundred words, wonld amount to something over $25 at tbe least That this was not proper or right, and this expense of at least $25 included oniy the cost of the stenographic report, and not the cost of the printing. A message from the Honse annonneed the paesage of certain bills. Senator Hrlton also spoke on the qaes tion. Senator Hodges called for the previous question. And the motion for reconsider ation prevailed on a call of the yeas end hays. Senator Perry moved to postpone the special order of the day (whioh was the bill tor the relief of the Lunatic Asylum) until to-morrow. Tbe motion prevailed. The bonr of ton a. u. having ceme, the hioh court of impeachment was called to order by the Chief Jus tice. The minntes were read. Tho evidence on the part of the S ate was resumed. HON. PARISH D.

On tbe oross-exatnination the witnees stated that he had n-ver paid hie part of thehaoknire; had a ten dollar bill and oonld not make obange. On the re-direct, witness said he bad never been called on for tbe baok hire; have frequently refused drinks. Manager Tamer then introduced the aoooaat current between the Treasurer and tbe Comptroller General, tonohing the returns of the insnranoe tax. H. W. J. HAM, 8WJRN. Besides in Gainesville; had a conver sation sinoe the charge of bribery, in the office of the Comptroller, with him; am intimate with Goldsmith; came in hie office, and in reference to the bribery matter said, "yon have played thunder, now, havent yon?’’ Witness then went on in a jocular manner, and eaid, "if yon bad searched the gaiters of Atlanta yon conld not have gotten hold of a worse man.’’ Goldsmith said he thought Wright was tbe best man to send, as he had known Davis for some years: have often gone into the office and in a jocular manner wonld say, "How are yon, wild land thieves?’’ Witness stated that he had a conversation with Goldsmith, and told him that witness thought injustice bad been done the Comptroller; talked with him abont Mr. Christopher, an edi tor of the Atlanta Phonograph, who was writing abont Urn; asked Christopher abont the articles he was writing about the Comptroller, said that he was doing Goldsmith iojnstioe; asked him if he was making anything by it; Chris-* tophersaid, "Not that he expected;’’ask ed him If he would keep silent oonld make anything by it; Christopher said he did not know—perhaps he Wonld it he conld make a Y or two by it; had this conversation with Christopher at the instance of Goldsmith; witness thongbt he conld fir the matter; got twenty-five dollars from tbe Comptroller and went to Christopher; told him be oonld fix tho matter; Christopher refused to enter into the arrangement, and witnese retained the monoy to Mr. Goldsmith. CROSS-EXAMINATION. Witness did not think it was wrong to make this attempt to obtain the silenoe of Christopher, as witness thought that he was doing the Comptroller injnBtioe, and did it on the part of friendship. A number of questions were propound ed by several Senators. The substance of the answers was that witness referred to the rumors of bribery by Wright when he told him he had played thunder; got the money ($25,) to obtain the silence of Christopher, and not for his own nse. The Comptroller so nndoratood the loan; have returned the $25 to the Comptroller since. Several questions were asked, going to show motive, whioh ware ruled ont by the Chief Jnslioe. . _ Manager Turner then offered to intro duce the report of Madison Bel), former Comptroller-General as going to throw light on the wild land office and its trans actions. Counselor Hopkins objected on the ground that it was ex parte and no part of the present case. Manager Turner stated that the repoit was a part of the record of the office cf the Comptroller. That the former Comp troller declared against the present sys tem of wild land taxation; that the present system being repealed by the recom mendation of Madison Bell was re-insta- ted at the recommendation ot Goldsmith. That the evidence was sought to be intro duced to show the motive of the Comp troller in the whole of his acts and domga. Counselor Candler objected. The Chief Jnslioe ruled that the evx- denoe was admissible, as the object of all evidence was the discovery of troth, and that in a trial of this nature, the greatest latitude should be allowed on both eides; but wonld submit it to the ^Sanator Clarke asked that the judg ment of tbe Senate be taken on the ques tion; and gave his views. . filter Camming said this xs not a criminal proceeding, and that therefore meat as the only remedy. The. commit tee had heard no suggestion of any other remedy. Mr. Nisbet said it wa3 only a question of punishment or acquittal of a guilty man. Impeaohment is the only rome- dy. Mr. Livington moved to make the re port the special order for next Taes day. Oa the motion to postpone Mr. Nisbet oalled for tne yeaa and nays, and the oall was sustained. The yeas were 78 and the nays 51. So the motion prevailed. Mr King moved that 500 oopies of the report be printed. Agreed to. BILLS BEAD THIRD TIME. The business in order was the read ing of bills the third time. A bill to relieve Wm. Bioh of Falton oonnty from a judgment against him on a bond given in the oity oonrt. The adverse report was disagreed to, Oa the passage ot tho bill the yeas were 59 and tbe nays 35 So the bill failed of a constitntional majority. Mr. MoWhoner offered a resolution that after to-day tbe afternoon session bo devoted to local bills on third reading and Senate bills on first and aeoond reading. Agreed to. A bill to incorporate the Savannah Trust and Safe Deposit Company. Mr. Fort of tbe committee on the judiciary submitted a report whioh was read. THE PENITENTIARY, Mr. Garrard, of the committee on the investigation of the office of the principil keeper of the penitentiary, said be hoped the membors wonld read the evidence adduced by tbe committee so that tbey wonld be ready to aot on tho report of the committee, whioh wonld probably come in Monday.

A to \ u, the evidence was all in, and the argu ment was opened for tha prosecution by Dstnot Attorney Ford, who was followed by Thomas H. Woods, of Meridian^ and L. M.

[Applanse.J THE GEORGIA PRESS. The suggestion has been mado that every member of the Legislature con tribute one day’s paiy to the Hood fnnd, and the Atlanta Pott says some have re sponded, bnt withholds the exaot fig ures. The Atlanta Comtitution states that the average publio eohool attendance in that city was nearly 2,900 last year, and that the incrcaee this year will amonnt to at least 400. Also that there are at least 700 children, black and white, who are deprived of school privileges became of lack of school honses to hold them. Da. Boaas, of Memphis, the Conttitu- tion states, has accepted the c&U to the Central Presbyterian Church of Atlanta, and will enter upon his duties when the fever in the former city has disappear ed.

It is stated upon the authority of Chan oeltor Mtll, that more applications for University of Georgia catalogues and let ters of enquiry regarding that institution have been reosived recently than at any time within the last eight or ten years. Legal Advertising Fees.—It seems to ns that the Constitution has about cov ered the entire ground in the following remarks on the above snbjeot: We are of the opinion that tho severe criticisms npon the bill regulating the fees for legal advertising is the result of a misunderstanding of the features of the measure. There may be gronndaof opposition to the bill, bnt there iB certain ly nothing in the provisions thereof to warrant the harsh terms employed by some of onr weekly state exchanges. Tbe bill itself was drawn by the edi tor and proprietor of a weekly ;paper— Mr. W. H. Harrison, of the Lumpkin Independent, who is also a member of tne House of Bopreaentativea—and it certainly is folly to charge that he waB influenced by hostility to the country paper a. Tho bill pro vides that the publisher of a news paper in which the legal advertisements appear shall receive cixty-fire cents for each one hundred words for each inser tion. Tho bill prohibits the sheriffs and ordinaries from charging any premium or commission on the advertising they are compelled to do, thns giving the publisher the fall benefit of the rate and doing away with the competition that at present compels the proprietors of week- ly papers to pay the officers a large com mission in order to seonre the advertis ing. Sixty-five cents a hundred words may be too small, but if tha calculation be mads that anm will be fonnd quite as profitable as tbe piesent ecaie or prices. In the matter of sheriffs’ sales, it amounts to $2 60 a levy. Apart from this, how ever, it is wrong for the weekly press to interpret the bill as an attack upon the country pspers^for it was framed by the editor of a country paper, who would be among the last to do injustice to his guild. Wa quote as follows from the Atlanta DiepatA: Marriage on Short Nona a— A few day* ago a farmer named b —\ a, living a few miles in the country, cam r into town to get supplies.

When one of tho yonng ladies entered the room to retire ebe happened to look under the bed, and there saw the villain. She immediately left the room, locking the door, bnt the negro raised a window and eeoaped. He was afterwards caught and is now in jail. Another negro went into a room in the house of Mr. Bnd Green in tha same lo cality, where Mrs. Green and her daugh ter slept, after they had gone to bed.

The Athena Banner mildly remarks that "the Atlanta dailies are now exercised over their respective circulations, and from the evidences produced it may now be set down as a settled fact that no paper in that oity with a circulation short of 60,000 can bo considered fnlly up to tbe mark." The Atlanta Republican says: "Prop erly is appreciating. Yet is is very low. The North and West should be here in tbe market. There are lands and armies of impeennions people for sale. Half the State can be had for $20,000,000, and three fourths of the people will vote the Badloal ticket if they oan see bread and butter In it."

A Levanting Exfbibsman in Limbo.— Tho Chronicle has the following account of the arrest and passage through that city Taesday afternoon, cf a defaulting express clerk who recently got away with $6,000: The press telegrams yesterday morn ing contained a brief announcement of tbe arrest of a defaulting express clerk, near Jacksonville, Florida. Yesterday afternoon the olerk- in question reached Augusta in oharge of Mr. Geo. B. Jones, agent at Jacksonville of the Sonthern Express Company, and Capt. Cooper, Chief of the Jacksonville police. The prisoner, whose name is William Kerr Bell, was handcuffed to an arm of a seat on the Central Bailroad passenger train. He left Augusta on the afternoon train of the Georgia Bailroad for St Leals, in charge of Capt. Cooper. Mr. JoneB re turned to Jacksonville. Bell was money clerk of the American Express Company at Kansas City, Missouri. On the 20th Of AngnBt last he absconded witb $6 000, two paokages of $3,009 each. Of this amonnt $4,000 was sent to the address of Mrs. Sadie M. Kyler, a friend of Ball and his wife, at Trenton, N. J. One thousand dollars was left with Mrs. Bell, and it is snppoeed that the other $1,000 was PLACED WITH A FRIEND at St. Lonis. When arrested, Bell had only $77 on his person. After his flight, it was also discovered that he had made away previously with $1,500, besides the $6,000, making $7,500 in all. This he doubless took from time to time and spent. It was ascertained that he was speculating in gram futures and using the company’s money for that purpose. From Kansas oity Bell proceeded— under various aliases—to New Orleans, which city he left on the 2nd instant, hav ing purchased a through ticket to Jack- Boville, Florida. He reached the latter plaoe last Thursday, and on Friday went to Palatka and thence to St. Augustine, where he spent Sunday. He EXPICTXD TO SAIL From St. Angastine on that day for Matanzas, bnt failed to do so from some eante. While in Jacksonville he tele graphed to Mrs. Kyler, osre of anotner party, to send him soma money (s por tion of the $4,000), and it was this tele gram that led to the disoovery of his whereabouts and hiB ultimate arrest. Mr. Jones, the Sonthern Express agent at Jacksonville, was notified and requested to have him arrested and sent to St. Lon’s. Mr. Jones got on g steamer leaving Jacksonville Monday morning, and abont two o’olook, between Jackson ville and Green Cove Springs, met an' other steamer, on board of which was his man. Mr. Jones changed his quarters from one steamer to the other, in mid stream and in a tew moments wss FAOR TO FACE with Ball. "How do yon do, Mr. Bell?’’ said Jones. Bell promptly replied, "Yon are mistaken, that is not my name. "Ob, yea it is," said Jones. "Yon are money clerk of the American Express Company at Kansas City." Bell still denied his identity, bnt Jones was sore of his man. He finally showed Bell one of his (Bell’s) photographs, and ask ed him what he thought of that. "Well, he is a good looking fellow," replied the fugitive with sublime oheek. He was passing at tho time under the name of Kline, having registered at the hotel in Jacksonville, “H. Kline, Colnmbns-*’ Mr. Jones carried hie prisoner to Jack sonville, having the necessary requisition from the Governor of Missouri, which HAD BEEN DULY HONOBID ty the Governor of Florida. From Jacksonville, Mr. Jones, in company with Capt. Cooper, came on immediately to Angnsta with his prisoner. He was met at tne depot by M. H. Dempsy, Di vision Superintendent of the Sonthern Express Company. Of the stolen money, $5,000 has been recovered by the Amerioau Express Com. pany, viz: the $4,000 sent to Mrs. Ev er, and the $1,000 left with Mrs. BelL Tbe remainder hae not been traced. Bell acknowledged to Mr. Jones that he took the money. When first arrested be pnt Qa an air of indiffersnoe and defl- auoe. bat his demeanor changed after wards, and when he reached Angnsta h9 seemed to be very much cast down. Mr. Jones demrvea much credit for tho manner in which be effected the ar rest. He is evidently a gentleman of promptness and decision. The Jury in the Chisholm Case DeKalk (Hiss ) Dispatoh to N. Y.
