He said it wbb through no spirit of pet eecution that he had voted to sustain the charges contained in every ono of the seventeen articles of impeachment, but Otcaucfc he thought the defendant guilt; of tbe chargee. He favored the infliction of n penalty that would be a warning to futnro office holders. The saddest re flection of all was tbs foot that Georgia was held np all over the Bepnbbc as a diBbonest State—a Stato whose officials were all corrupt. He hoped that there was yet enough honesty left in the State to save it. My God 1 My God! Come to the relief of my country! Senator Hudson said he was in favor bf removing from office, but not for dis qualification for futnre holding of office; that if the rule is enforced tbe result would include all the sheriffs, tax collect ors and executors in the State; they go free, but the wrath of Georgia must be visited on tbo bead of tbe Comptroller General. We have found him guilty of setting a bad example in office. The Comptroller could have done much worao than he did; and we should sot inflict the highest penalty. Tho speech of Mr. Bower was one of tho best and most classically constructed appeals delivered in the Senate Chamber for many a year. Tbe Senator argued calmly from the Constitution, from histo ry, from tbe light of experience, and from the present sxigenoies of the country, that the sentence in fall should be in- flioted, and that it was the duty of every Senator to ac‘, and aot folly in this ma • ter. The speech made a profound impres sion and reflects the greatest honor on tte talented young Senator. Senator Bryan addressed the Senate in favor of the motion of Senator Howell, Counsellor Hopkins said that the de- fenu. nt, by his oonnsel, wished to make a further statement. Senator Harrison said he had no ob jection. Ihe question was pnt to the House on hearing the statement and agreed to. Senator Preston asked that if the de fendant’s counsel wished to make their statement alter tbe debate on the part of the Senate that they oould do so. Senator Holcombs moved that if the ctuaatl of tbe defensobe allowed to speak that .the managers te also allowed to make whatever statement they desire.

London, September 18.—The St. Pe tersburg S?o7os, says a groa IL\ brokj one Tueedivy l^st in the town of Epatsri- noater In South Ba59la.*ft«rfW»lHKC3HEft London, September 15.—Sir Garnet Wolesley telegraphs from Sooth Africa that all tha important Zola chiefs have submitted to tbe British authorities. The Manchester Guardian says it ie understood that an agent from New Or leans has been in Oldhem relative to the purchase of ootton direct from the pro ducers, bat it is known that the great ma jority of both private firms and limited Companies wonld be advene to enbetitat- ing Amenoan for English cotton. The labor troubles are increasing. The Bedford New Mills at Leigh have dosed and seveH hundred operatives are idle. The Preeton Spinning and Manufacturing Company, running 45,000 Bpindles and 750 looms, have commenced to ran on the short time system. There injaot the least indication of the present strike in creasing daily. Operative Bpinneraof the Hyde will meet shortly to discuss the redaction of wages and decide whether there shell be a stoppage of the mills thronghont the whole district. Quite a panic was created in Glossop by tho announcement that Jommers mills employing^,000 hands -will shortly ba closed. The Woodhas mills employing an equal number of bands are about to start running on short time. As Glos- snp;is entirely dependent upon the cot ton 'trade, aUjclasses of the community express the gravest concern at the as pect of affairs. It is not thought that the operatives of the Oldham mills will resist the reduction of their wages. A dispatch by way of St. Vincent, folly confirms the acooant of the capture of King Cettawayo. The movement at Oldham to adopt some plaoe other than Liverpool as tbe oentreforthe purchase of raw ootton, docs not seem likely to oemo to any thing.

Judson ani Fe lix Kaufman, as a committee, is publish ed this morning, purporting to bo an ad dress in tbe interest; of tha “anti-Ma- ckine” Republicans, and adviaing tho disaffected members of the party to join the signors in a movement to defeat Cor nell'for Governor and Jewll for Canal Commissioner. Vicksburg, Mis3., September 18.— Quarantine against New Orleans was re moved last night, Poisons holding olean bills of health and all freights except woolen goods packed in New Orleans, will be allowed to enter tbe city. Detroit, September IS.—President Hayee and party were reoeived npon the landing of the steamer Northwest by the Mayor and the city officials, the govern ment officers and a large nnmber of citi zens. AC eleven o’clock, lie was escorted by the city militia to the Fair grounds, where he made a speech. The President alluded to the reunion of the Twenty-third Regiment the year before and tbe changes which inter vened. Tho gratifying financial improve ment of the section was qaoted. In speaking on what has been accom pliahed by the war, he said: “We all know that tho men who planned tho de struction of tho Union and tho establish ment of the Confederate States, based their attempt on a construction of the Constitution oalled the State’s tights doctrine, and in the interest of the people of those States to the extension and per petuation of slavery.” Tho President eulogized Lincoln,oom- mending his opinions on the issues of the civil war expressed in his speech at the consecration of tbe Gettysburg National Cemetery, that ail men are created equal and that the war was to test whether any nation conceived on Buck principles can long endnre. Tho objects for which the Union soldiers fought wore national ity, liberty, equal rights and self-govern ment. Qiot -d from Mr. Lmcoln’s inau gural, and urged the acceptance of ail tho constitutional amendments. Regret ted that in eomo communities there ex» isted a dangerous practical denial of the right o* colored citizens to the political privileges guaranteed by tbe constitution. No man can manfully claim acceptance of the eottlement of tho war who with indifference sees tho fifteenth amendment practically nullified. Tno question of the lawless aasaiiment of the rights of tbo colored people is o iaol the whole country. Patriot ism, justice, humanity and material interests all plead on the right side of the question. When races aro numerous, prosperity can only exist by the harmonious effjita of both the white people uud tno colored people. The only EOlid foundation for peace and prog- rees in each a community is equal and exact justics to all. All States now share alike under tho general government. The press cf the communities whero lawless ness cxiets, has spoken out. Ia conclud ing, tho President urged the protection of the rights of all, especially tbe colored citizen?, protecting the rights of all by anstaining the representatives of tho peo ple who will guard their rights. Tho right of suffrage is the right of self-protection. lie free exercise is the vital air of Republican institutions. New Yoiik, September 18.—The Dem ocratic National Committee met to-day. Frceetit, ex-Sanator Barnum, of Con neccicur, Representative Mites, Ross, of Nov, Jcrsoy, Senator Ransom, of North Carolina, Senator Davis, of West Vir ginia, i»uu Representative Eppa Hunton, of Virginia. Hon. J. F. McHenry, chair- m&u. o£ tho Oantral Committee, was present, and gave an account of the prog- reB> and prospects of the campaign im Ohio, expressing a very sanguine opinion that Ewing will carry the Stato by a very large vote. He effered various suggestions S3 to the best methods of promoting the inter ests ot tno party in the presint campaign. Tho secession of the Tammany delega tion at Syracuse was only incidentally ailuUed to, efter the basin«s3 cf th9 meeting wasover. There was much diver sity of opinion as to Ike effect it >vcnla have on the elections. The meeting of the committee was purely cf a business character. Che members deny that there is any inundation for the rumors of action taken with regard te the splitting of the party at Syracuse. Important Movement. Yesterday, a committee of the New York Chamber of Commerce addressed a letter to W, H. Vanderbilt, suggesting an application to Congress at its next ses sion for an act regulating traffio on the great trank railway lines in the United States, and reoommending the prepara tion of a bill for that purpose at an early date, so ai to bring it to the test of care- fal study and criticism. This is a movement wo havs br-n-ntici- p&ting for some time, and aro :e .1: .ed te believe that it iB the result of much con ference already had between the parties named. The fact is, all the tariff and pooling arrangements mads between the rival roads amount to little. They are soon broken np by the rivalry, bad faith or snepioion subsisting between the par ties, or by onteide pressure of looal in terests controlling them, and tbo Inter nal trade of the country beoomes the oon- slant sport and viotim of ohange and fluctuation in rates of carriage. Acts of State Legislatures oannot reach the mat ter for want of co-extensire jurisdiction; but it is possible that Congress might provide a statutory schedule for the great inter-State lines, to which shorter lines might be conformed by State Leg islation. It la needless to eay that snoh an aot most be almost wholly experimental in the ontiefc. It can only be perfected by experience. It will, moreover, keep the railways constantly in and before Con gress, with all their vaat interests and ag gregations of wealth, aad it becomes a matter oE serious speculative inquiry what influence this will be likely to exert on the integrity of legislation. The whole proposition is fraught with momentous considerations, both to the business of the people and the purity of the govern ment. Greenbacks vs. Greenbackery. It has been disooTered by tho Republi cans that no weapon is so effectual to fight Greenbaokery as greenbacks. Id Maino they began the canvass by waving the bloody shirt, bat soon dropped it and in lien thereof waved greenbacks. A Portland paper says that Mr. Blaine waved twenty thousand dollars worth of them oat of bis own private fortune, and, altogether, about $250,000 in green backs were waved all over the State—the men of high morale showing their appre ciation of tbo suffrage to each an extent as paying thirty dollars per vote. Truly did the ancient prophets of reconstruction remark that suffrage is an elevator. Her rings are nothing to snffrago in a lurg family at thirty dollars apiece. For our own part, though con3titn tionally averse to buying or selling votesi wo are glad to believe that money ia more powerful than hatred in Maine. It is better to vote for gain than to vote for malice, hatred and revenge. It is better to be Eordid than to ba malignant. Therefore let ns rejoice that the bloody* flag was displaced by the Greenback in Maine, because the seotional hate had ceased to be a prevalent motive pow er with the brethren. Boblnaon and mden. The iForId asserts that Robinson will be re-elected Governor ot New York be yond all doubt, and it is pretty clear that the World really Mints that statement because it is steadily addressing itself to the work of showing that a victory for Robinson will be no evidence that Tilden can carry New York; and the Southern States particularly must not suffer them selves to be misled into any such assump tion. That Robinson is f »r moro popular than Tilden, whom the }>V: id attacks in this faehiont The readers of tbe TForZd do not need to be reminded that this jonrnal Insisted steadily and unahriukingly upon the re nomination of Governor Robinson as the first condition of Democratic enooesa in 1879 when other Democratic journals wavered before the tempest of Tammany threats. Nor shonld they need to be told that tbe World wonld oonsider it a nuioi dal aot as matters now stand were the National Convention of 1880 to renouil nate Mr. Tilden. With Mr. Tilden as its oandidate the Democratic party would be put on the defensive at the outset and kept there.. Demooratio ne wspapers and Demooratio speakers would be com polled to take np aud carry the harden of tbe inoome-tax litigation whioh Mr. Til- den, we are sorry to say, seeuu more than willing to leave at loose ends, when every dielata ot policy and of principle shonld movo trim to bring it to final judgment before 1880; of the cypher mystery, and in word, of all the as yet unknown and nn certified doings of his nephew, Mr. Pel ton. Whatever those doings msy turn out to be the Republicans have, rightly or wrongly, succeeded in putting the onus of them all upon Mr. Tilden. Be sides nil this, Mr. Tilden no longer pos eesses tbe power of pbyaioal endurance necessary to enable a candidate to go suc cessfully through the hard work of aPrest dential campaign. 0! course, therefore he lacks the power if eleoted to initiate and carry out tho tremendous work ot reform which must done by a Democratic Preaident at Washington. Ia a word, Mr. Tilden has been unfortunate in mauy things. This may or may not be his fault. Bat the National Democ racy must not; be handicapped in 1880 with the load of those misfortunes.

Stephens received grand ovation at Louisville, Kentucky, last Monday night at tho State Erposil tion, which is now in fall tide of success fal experiment. Mr. Stephens attended on special invitation, and was reoeived very enthusiastically by an immense as semblage. In response to an address of welcome from one of the Vice-Presidents of tho Exposition, Mr. Stephens dt livered from his movable chair a speech on “Sci enco, Civilization, Progress and Humanl ty,” about an hour in length. Tho Courier Journal says in spite of his bodily weakness, his voice is still good, and at times it rings like a clarion in a mountain defile. Itjwas noticed that whenever ho wished to emphasize any point he wonld roll his chair first on the right, then on tho left, and finally for ward. These movements are the substi tutes need by him for gestures, and they rendered his epeeoh very remarkable. His address was of an hour’s length and enchained attention. No Roman father could have beon accorded greater homage; no Pagan chariot, with the spoils of hos tile cities "to deck the shrines of Rome” in its wake, ever oocaeioned greater en- thusism than the chair of the invalid Statesman. When he began to speak tho crowd gathered closer and increased momentarily. We oopy the introdnetory remarks of the Courier Journal: Tbe testimonial to Hon. A. H. Ste pheoa last night at the Exposition can safely be called unparalleled. It was a deferenoe of tho masses to a man who will be a historic character. It was fealty to a name that has never been blemished, to honor that has never beon questioned, and to an eloquence that onoe snook the country, and whose spaiks have not yet been extinguished. Force, power and beanty were moved and controlled by a man who is bat the echo of the Hon. Alex. H. Stephens of tbo pas:. ’Tis bat a frail body in which fife feebly circulates; the merest boy could cruih out the divine epirk. It is bur evidence that genius annihilates in firmiiy aad illuminates weakness ot body; room every obstacle by overleap ing it; throws beauty in tbe background and shows that mind and soul and eilvery hairs are greater elements in "stirring the fierce Democracy” than aught else in the world. When tha feeble, white-haired statesman, type of American chivalry, exponent cf tne sunny South, and bear er of white from the waveless white of tho cotton plantations, and the palmetto forests, that eiug their eternal songs, was pushed through tbe crowd npon his chair, there was not a heart in all that vast crowd that did not thrill and beat for him. It W03 no idle curiosity that com pound attention; but it was kindled sym pathy. Ono heart beat moved them all. 0!d men with heir that seemed a halo of starlight r.3 it fell upon their shoul ders were reminded of that pleasing post which constitutes for thorn the good old days. Men of business beheld in him an eve; ready assistance and encourage ment. Bright eyes of Kentucky’s fairest fell softly upon the aged, slight, but still grand form.

Thn Bond or the Treasurer —Under this head the Atlanta Dispatch submits the following: Treasurer Renfroe, in bi3 statement be fore the investigating committee, spoke of the difficulty of making a bond as large as his, and tbe necessity of offering inducements to bankers and others to be come his bondsmen. Tbe Legislators and tbe people bave expressed their dis approbation of his condnot in allowing his securities the interest on tha State’s deposits as a consideration for signing his bond. Bat still the question re main*, can a Treasurer elect give the bond reqnired without some compensa tion to hie bondemen ? This is a mat ter deserving of Legislative attention. It appears to ne that the difficulty may be gotten over by dividing tho responsibility and lessening the bond of the Treasurer. Cannot Ur. Garrard’s bill establishing State depositories be so amended a* to require the banks to give 'security in some reliable form; to forbid tbe remov al of the deposits from their keeping ex cept npon the joint demand of the Gov ernor, Comptroller and Treasurer, and then only when wanted for noma imme diate demand of the State; and to pro hibit the retention in the Treasury at any time of more than a email amonnt needed for the current expense* of the State government? If the possibility of any great defaloation or financial er ror by the Treasurer was thus re moved, what need wonld there be of a bond of $200,000? Why shonld the bond be any larger than the amonnt whioh he might be allowed to retain di rectly in tbe Treasury ? These large bonds are generally unprofitable at beat. Either the bondemen often prove to be irresponsible, or they oonvey their prop erty so that the State or connty cannot reach it, or they are "relieved” by a spe cial aot. But let the responsibility be divided, and the several bends be large enough only to cover each one’* liability, and there would not only be more sol venoy in the security, bnt more certainty in the enforcement of tbe penalty. We know that these suggestions are crude and somewhat indefinite, bnt thoy will serve to convey an idea that might be better elaborated and evolved into a plan by which a serious difficulty in our State administration may be mastered. An Athens telegram to the Constitution says: A young married farmer, named Janes S. Jones, from the vloinity ot Elberton, entered H, L. Lynch’s store about two o’clock this afternoon.

Ox the South Georgia College opening and prospects, the same paper says: This school will open on Monday morning with the moat flattering pros pects.

By next Monday the nnmber is expected to reach foil one hundred. Among those that have entered are several young men who propose to take s regular course, and it ie probable that at the oloee ef the term a fair number will have been pre pared to enter the school at Athena.

The Lumpkin Independent my » a prom inent citizen of that plaoe has written to New Orleans, offering to adopt one of the Hood orphans, Thb aamepaper tells of a negro woman in that town who seems to be rather s stirring person.

The stom ach is affected with loss cf appetite and sickness; the bowels in general are costive, sometimes alternative with lax; the head is troubled with pain, accompanied with a dull, heavy sen sation tn the back part. There is gen erally a considerable loss of memory, accompanied with a painful sensation of having left undone something which ought to have been done. >A slight, dry cough is sometimes an attendant. The patient complains of weariness and debility; he is easily startled, his feet arc cold or burning, and he com plains of a prickly sensation of the skin; his spirits are low; and although he is satisfied that exercise would be beneficial to him, yet he can scarcely summon up fortitude enough to try it. In fact, he distrusts every remedy.
