The Jasper Centennial which takes place to-day, is replete with interest; prominent men from this and surround ing States have signified their intention to be present, and numerous visiting mil itary and civic organizations joined with those of Savannah, will form a pageant npon her streets never before witnessed in this State. We clip the following from the Morning A T £iri: An invitation from the joint commit tee of the Jasper Monumental Associa tion, and the Centennial Committee, re questing the Historical Society to take part in the exercises on the 9tb, was read, and the invitation nnasimonsly ac cepted. The following resolntion, offered by Mr. Schirm, was nnonimouely adopted : Resolved, That the Librarian present to the Jasper Monament Committee, for de posit in the corner stone of tb9 monu ment, the following: 1.

An engagement begin ning on the 7th of October mav sot be concluded in time for me to reach your city at the designated time. If practica ble I shall be present. The privilege of uniting with yonr citizens in honoring the Rallact Jaspsr, a desire to know more of a' people whose commerce and cnltnre are commended throughout the Union, and the opportunity ot meeting personal friends, tempt me too strongly to neglect business engagements. W>th assurance of great esteem, I am eir, yonr friend and obedient servant, James H. Blount. The same paper through one of its correspondents says: While the honors are being done t the gallant Jasper, other timely snggeBO tiocs are already being made as to whos e memory the next centennial will be given for daring and heroic conduct. The gal lant sergeant from the Fifth Georgia Begiment stems to have had the honors in his reach until yonr correspondent saw fit to trot ont the gallant Sergeant Jesse A. Hobson, of Washington county. While the lamented Lee was going tbrongh the valley of Virginia on the third expedition to Maryland, the orator of the Jaeper Centennial (then Major- General) was in command of the advance and Sergeant Sobsoo, being one ot the picked sharp-shooters of his division,was in the fronti and the enemy was encoun tered. This perceived, the famone old rebel yell of the Confederates rent the air, and the order to charge was given. Bobson sprang to the advance far in front, and ere many mqmenta intervened was ont of view from hia command, the dense forest hiding and separating them. At this critical moment a skirmish line •£ the enemy filed between Sergeant Bobion and his command. On he went, however, thinking only of the command “forward and route the enemy.” Just then he en countered a company (Federal), forty-six in number, commanded by a Captain. Hia gnn was discharged, and what most he do? Fortune favors the brave. He rushed at them alone, pointing his empty gnn, yelling at them to surrender. Beckoning to his comrades (who were fax in the rear etill fighting) to follow. The Yankee Captain, vrith his entire command, surrendered to Sergeant Bob- son, and were marched by a circuitous ronte to Gen. J. B. Gordon’s hpadquar* te:E. The Captain was so taken back on finding that he had surrendered to one man that bo raved like a manioc and tore his hair out hr the roots. 8?rg’t B. received notice of his promotion from Gsn.

Ho bos been Tax Collector of this ooaniy several times since the war, and represented Washing ton county in tho Legislature also one term.

Tax Chronicle Bays: Last Saturday night, while a camp-meeting held by Bethel (A. M. E ) Church was in progress at Lifu/elte Bice Gears.?, a considerable disturbance woe oroated on the outskirts by a cc;,'.o named Greecfcerry Hopkins, a notorious character, who, it is said, was in an intoxicated condition. It is report ed that he' fired his pistol off several tic. as and OLce’c'.mo ne*r -,rikiug a byacondor. BetweenS and 4'o'clock in tho morning his conduct bocime so bad that a colored i man named El .yard Martin, accompanied by several otfce-.E. vein: out to the gate ol him. Hopkins thereupon draw s pis tol and, withoat warning, fired at Martin shooting him throngh the heart. Martin lived only a few minutes after the shoot ing. A party of colored men immedi* ately arrested the murderer and carried him to Mr. B. M. Evans, new territory policeman, who conveyed .he prisoner to the City Hall, whence he was Bent to jail. Sunday morning Coroner Jones held an inquest, when the above facts were elicited. The jury returned a ver dict to the effeot that the deceased came to his death by a wound inflicted by a pistol ball from a pistol in the hands of Greenbarry Hopkins, each killing being in their opinion, willful murder. The colored men who so promptly ar rested Hopkins deserve muoh credit fo; their oourse in the matter, demonstra ting, as it does, their desire for the prop er observance of law and order. F&ok the same paper, we learn that Augusta will bo represented in Savannah to-day, by detachments from the Clark Light Infantry and the Irish Volunteers. How let the gentlemen, ef the enske story department retire to the suade, in cluding Woon’s of the Dispatch: th9 male has tho floor. Calhoun Times: One day last w e Bsnben Jones, a young man living], the lower end of the connty with mother-m-law, Mrs. Stephens, saw loo about her premises a mule that he knew belonged to Silas Brown, living several miles away, and he concluded to capture it and Jet the owner know its where abouts. He eeonred a plow line and in tended to tie it aronnd the animal’s neck, having once secured it by the foretop. Bat no amount of soft words conld coax the mole to let him get near enough to tie it. Finally he got a bnndle of oats and walked up near, when the male in stead of grabbing the oats, grabbed Esuben’s hand, and getting bis thumb seenre between his teeth held with a death like grip. Eeuben pracosd aroatd, beat the animal over tho head with bis first, bn: the mule held on only the harder, and, according to Esu- ben’s testimony, kept the aching member tnero for nearly a half an hour. After being beaten over the head severely with a sink in the bonds of Benben’a little brother who came to the rescue, the mule finally gave one strong, quick jerk, and literally stripped tho meat from ths bone Benben was in to see the physician tne day after the oosnrrence, and his hand presented a frightful appearance, being awfully swollen, even above the wrist. Moral—don’t fool with a loose mule. The Talbotton Register has its head level on the food queston. Thi3 is what ths Sjuthern farmers mn3t know and con aider; and knowing tho facts, they must see tho imperative necessity—if they want cheap breads tuffs—to prepare to raise them at homo. Ho farmer in the South ehould let the Bmnll grain eeed eeaeon pass without patting la fall crop3 of wheat, oats, rye and b3rley. With full cri03 and barns, and well stocked smoke houses, the Southern farmer is lord of the situation, and if it must be so, he can sell his cotton at low prices, and then ask no odds of the outside world. A very curious and melsueholy incident happened on on j occasion in a church iu In dia, daring service. The windows and doors were, of coarse, all wide open, ana through one of tjioee open doors a cobra glided into the church. Several of the congregation no • ticed it, and were not unreasonably mnch alarmed. The beadle, a native, was fortu nately on the alert, and ho manijed to pro- core a tulwar, with which he cut off the creatnre'e bead before it bad time to do any mischief. Tranquility was restored, and the servico proceeded to its close, when many of ths congregation went to look at the dead enikeasit lay headless on ths ground. Among them was a man who in bis curiosi- to to examine the reptile pnt bis foot on the bead and rolled it towards him when bs in stantly nttered a loud exclamation and drew bis foot away. By gome means or other be bid contrived to set in action the muscular apparatus attached to the poison-fangs, which bod darted violently forward and etruck him on the foot.

The conditions ot ibis novel supper wars these: For every word spoken by tbs goatlomen at the sapper ta ble a forfeit of 10 coats was imposed; bnt, on the other hand (as duties are always com pensated with rights and restrictions with privileges), it was agreed that whoever weathered the whole supper, submitting to all queries, emprises and ingenious questions without replying, ehould bs entitled to it gratuitously. Many and frequent were the artifices and motsrfngea resorted to by the ladies in attendance to entrap the unguarded, and one after another stoat and discreet men went down before the constant volley of artfal interrogations. At last all tell out and paid the dime penalty save one in dividual—a queer chap —whom nobody seem ed to know. He attended etrictly to busi- nors and passed unheeded these j-kes, jioes and challenges. They quizzed him, ont all in vain. Ho wrestled with the turkey and grappled with the goose.

Fot twelve months I suffered from inflam mation of tne kidneys and bladder; no rest at night, np ten cr fifteen timss; could not walk across the street Without haring palpi tation of tne bean, would bare to ut down and rest before I oonld get back to the ho tel. Lost May I waa obliged to give np my badness, that cf hotelkeeper. 1 wa* reduc ed in weight forty pounds. In August I made the trip by Jte am Dr to New York, thence by steamer to New London, Connec ticut, where I arrived weak and very mnch debilitated. My brother, J. f. Brown, Pres ident ot Brown's Oouon Gin Company, at New London, aent to the druggist's for a bottle ot *‘Constitution Water,” and insisted on my taking it, saying thx.he, and others be knew, bod been troubled the same way. It eeeme incredible, but in two da^s I began io feel better, my mppeute improving, and In a few day* was able to walk op to the town, acme half mile distant, without get ting wearied, or baring any flattering or pal pitation of the heart. In a snort tune I re tained to New York (visited Coney Island, of oourse) and walked from the Wooden Pier to the Iron Pier, a distance I should judge of nearly one mile, throngh the sand; also a long diatanco tbrongn Central Park without any inoonvenienoe or distress. I am sixty years of age, hare Jived in Macon flttyfonr years, been in the hotel business twenty- five yean, and those that know me know that A would not give this testimonial nu ess it waa dne you, and to those suffering as I have suffered. Diseases similar to mine and outer diseases yonr medicine is recommen ded for are very prevalent in the Booth. Yours truly, Si. B- Biown. Phils. Timee.l Assistant Postmaster General T)ner, who ia now reported to bs in danger from the In dians, because he accompanied United States troops,into the Ute country in drder.to hare a banting trip, is one of the most traveled statesmen of the administration. Within the last two years he has probably spent more time in travelling at government ex pense than he baa devoted to ids desk hero. His first extended trip was to Europe, in connection with some kind of postal bnsi- ntso. He remained there abont four months, He had hardly returned whsn ‘ the necessities of the postal eerrioe” called him to the Pacific coast. Mr. Tyner, with a par ty was gone abont three months, hATing a special oar at his disposal a greater portion of tho time. The puty visited every comer of the Pacific coast, from Washington Terri tory to Ban Diego. Mr. Tyner returned from that trip early in ths summer. Since that time he has taken two quite extensive trips in different parts of the country, and sow, some three weoka ago, etartod for anothor Western trip, the ultimate object of which, it is privately reported at the Post Offieo De portment, was to join Gen. Grant, upfer wfccm, for a ton months, i i the latter put of his admin'stration, Mr- Tyner was Post- mutti Genera', Meanwhils Mr. Tyeer seems to have -to. pod in Ooloiado to tsue a hnnti >g trip while U-ueral Giant was doing Calif: mis. STATE LEGISLATURE. Atlanta, October 6,1879, THE HIGH COUUT OF IMPEACHMENT met at 3:30 p. m., and ws3 called to or der by the Chief Jaetice. Senator DuBobb resumed tho floor, and proceeded to argue that the Treasurer was not guilty of any violation of the law, because the Angler resolution de clared that it was not customary to com pel the Treasurer to give np the,interest on public funds, eto., etc. ^ Senator Camming said he supposed ha would conolnde the debato, as such was the custom of deliberative bodies, to let the mover cf any point conolnde the argument. Senator Lester objected, and after some little passage of arms the Senator proceeded. That he would attempt to answer the arguments proposed by the other side; that receiving money on pnb lie deposits is not morally wrong. It is malum prohibitum, not malxmin se. It «s3 not formerly criminal, but it is eo now. When did tho defendant receive this interest? Wbs it when it wa3 criminal, or when it was not. I say it i3 a fact that from 1779 to the present time it has been cnstomsTy to allow Treasurer's to receive interest on public deposits, and doe3 not the Angier resolution s&y eo in &s many words? That this resolution in its preamble deals with Treasurers in general, and the resolntion relates to tho then Treas urer, (Angler.) So there i3 evidence from this resolution that euch was the custom. That custom allows every one to whom money is intrn3ted, to retain the interest on money deposited with them; that to make a man a felon for this wonld oonviot every banker in the State; that from olden time such wsa tho cus tom of all tho Treasurer's of the State each as Clayton, Mitchell, Tripp anti others. The Senator from the First (Lsster), and from the Eleventh (Clarke), were both pleased to eay it was ridicu- 1gu3 to think of a man getting interest on money in his hand. If this was folly, it was the folly of the Legislature of 1876 they seem to nee something facetious ia it. Hat several Sunators agree with me. Senators Lester and Clarke have read me lectures on oaths. If I was on trial I would defend myself. If that wonld not do I would entreat mercy on my knees, and if reason wonld not do I would pray to God. I sm not on trial and I will not defend myself. The one did not under stand the poetry of what I said and the other forgot what the Bible says abont it. After some farther remarks Senator Camming concluded his remarks and the court adjourned till 9:30 a. m. to-morrow. Senator Lsster will reply to-morrow. Caboltnn. Atlanta, Oet. 7, 1879, THE SENATE met at nine this morning. The President in the caair. Prayer by the Chaplain. The journal was read and approved. the nun cjvut or impeachment .mat ai 9:30, the Chief Jnatioe cn the bench, l ue minutes were read. Judge Warner announced that Senator Lester was entitled to the floor. Senator Lester said he had hoped that ihe managers and coanssl for the defend ant would bare had finished this debate, bat as tne Senators have spoken also, and as osrtain positions and assertions are assumed as true, he desired to tak with the otner side to see it they und er- atood each other. In order to do this he wonld review briefly the law introduced m the case. The Senator then rapidly reviewed tne law of the oass. Tcera was no point in saying -hat the constitutional provision required a legis lative enactment to make it effective. They rely on a Gecisioa of the United States court in a case f tom Mississippi. He had ezsmined that case and found that the court had not decided as claimed, bnt tnat the argument of the coanssl offer all tnat tho defendant depends upon. The constitution of Mississippi is dir erent from onrs, and ours declares that the General Assembly shall enforce these provisions by snitable penalties. The penalty is no part of the tala. I ask the question, oonld this oonrt enforce the penalty wbion may bo flxed by the Lsg- lsJature? The Senator then proceeded to refate the argument of Senator Camming rela tive to “money in hand,” showing that funds subject to draft or cbeok are in hand. He did this thing by stealth and not openly. He had invited lnvest- gation, and yet he concealed his receiv ing interest until it was discovered by another. H9 claims that his origin was too low for him to know ngnt and wrong. This wib not do; the high and the low are alike amenable to the law. Every man who violates law is willing to set np the defense of ignoranoa of law. Will we let it go ont that that is the rule ? After some farther remarks, Senator Lester concluded one of the most power- fal speeches of the trial. Senator Harrison said if no one else de* sired to speak, that thu Senate come to a vote. Senator Stephens moved to table the order of Ssnator Camming. Senator Harrison called for the yeas and nays. The call waa sustained, the resolution pnt and earned, and the order tabled by a vote of 24 to 19. The Chief Jnstice—Senators, sre yon ready to vote on the main question? ted the law and ths constitution, bnt that he thought there was a reasonable donbt about his having committed the aots charged corruptly in the articles, he wonld vote not guilty, boson as the law, not his will, compelled him to do so. Trontman said he preferred to err on the side cf mercy, if he erred at &U. He wonld, with due regard to his duty and his God, vote not guilty. Senator Wall, the new Senator of the 15th, in place of Senator Clements, de ceased, asked to ba mused from voting, a3 the testimony had been offered before he came into the court; but that he de sired that tho reasons why h9 made the excuse be entered on tho jonrnal of the Senate. Senator Lumpkin moved that each ac tion ba taken. After soma debate tho Chief Jaetice etated to Senator Wall that he had the right to refuse to vote and to have his reasons entered on the Journal. Senator Wall—"I will not vote.” The second article was read, which chargee that Esnfroo did illegally and corruptly receive from divers parsons large sums of money ($5,300) on Slate funds. The veto stood on thia artiolo exactly as on the first. The line wa3 etrictly drawn between the party to convict un der the law and the evidence and the party resolvad to acquit for reasons best known to themselves. The vote wa3 25 o 17. When Senator Proston oame to voto ha stated, not guilty of corrupt intention. Senator Bussell naked it the vote oonld be received, when Senator Proston said the Senator wa3 attempting to question his motive and to hold him np to public opprobrium. Senator Bussell—That is false. Bussell then rose and asked that the Senator give his vote gailty or not guilty, that he knew it was rather a deli cate matter to bring bint to the voto. Preston then votod not guilty. Tho Chief Jnstice announced that (he defendant was acquitted, as the constitu tional majority of^two-thirds was lacking to convict. The third article was read. It chargah Benfroe with making arrangements with his bondmen whereby bo received some thing like $10,009 on publio funds. The vote on this artiole was the same us tho two proceeding. Twenty-five Sen ators voting guilty and seventeen voting to acquit. Se the defendant was acquit ted by a lack 0! the constitutional two- thirds vote of guilty, Preston and Ejan voted cot guilty of corrupt intention. The fourth article was read, which charges Emfrca with demanding and re ceiving from A, K. Guilds, president, and B. L. Moss, eaoretary, of the North eastern EiiLroad, for signing ths bonds of said road certain illegal fees to the amonnt of $247. On this vote Senator Hudson voted not guilty on the ground that be did not believe there was a corrupt intention, as there was a preoedeni for suoh a oharge. The vote stood as before, with the ex. oeption of Senator Hudson—24 to con- viot and 18 to acquit, so the defendant was aoquitted ogam by the two-thirds znle. The fifth article wa3 read which char ges Eenfroe with using his office to fur* ther his own designs in endeavoring to obtain a position for one T. J, Pritchett. On this artiole there was a very large change ia the vote, to-wit: 35 not guilty to 7 guilty.
