Savannah Hetcs: Yesterday between 12
and 1 o’clock a bale of cotton was dis
covered to be on fire in the cotton yard of
the Atlantio and Gulf Bailroad. The
Aimes communicated to several bales,
aud thirteen bales were scorched and
slightly damaged. The labarers in the
yard and the draymen awaiting loads, by
their prompt aotios, extinguished the fire
in a short time, without the seoessity of
calling out the Fire Department. The
ootten was fully covered by insurance.
Aa the bales had been discharged from
the oara only a short while previously,
the supposition is that ihe bale must
have been on fire when unleaded, though
it was not then discovered. How it
originated is a mystery—“one of thoso
things no fellow can understand.”
Cutting Afehat in West Point.—
Colambas Times: West Point was the
scene of a temble cutting affair last Sat
urday night. To odd to the sadness of
it, both are young men of high standing,
well oonnecteu and the one who did the
outting, the son of a worthy minister.
The circumstances are as follows! There
was a show in town ana Mr. Henry Wosd-
gate went ont of the hall and during his
a bee tee, Mr. Wesley Jones came in and
look the seat just vacated. On bis_return
ho told Jones that the seat was his and
to give it up. Jones not doing so as
readily as be desired, W. used rather
harsh language to him. Jones then re
marked that he wanted no diffi
culty there and asked Woodgate
to meet him at the stable. After
the show was over W. went to
the stable and renewed the attaok when
Jones split his jugular vein and also
stabbed him in the baok and under ths
left arm.
Mr. Woodgate was alivo Sunday night
and his symptoms a little better than
daring the day, but the physicians en
tertain but little hope of his xeoovery.
It Is indeed sad that two such promi
nent and promising young men should
become so enraged about a trifling af
fair as to take the life of onv. This ter
rible outting brings a gloom over many
hearts in the oommunity.
No legal proceedings had been made
np to Sunday night, bnt if bound over
Mr. Jones can give bond,
Fbou the same paper we learn also the

dangerous they are very painful.

There was a mania for <'investigation 1
in the late Legislature which spared no
one. All the departments of the govern
ment were required to uadergo tbe ordeal^
and few officials escaped some innuendo
or suspicion, even though the charges
could not be made out. Two of them,
however, came forth from the furnace
without even the smell or firs about their
garments, and these were Governor
Colquitt and Dr. Gustavus J. Orr. The
Governor had many active, unrelenting
enemies, but all their efforts ccnld not
prevent the people’s representatives, by
an overwhelming majority, from exoner
ating their ehiet magistrate from any
complicity or knowledge e! the wrong
doing whioh was proven upon others.
From no pattissn standpoint, (for this

that the people in primary assembly
should be permitted to dsoide tbe

Washington, Ootober 21.—The case
of tho State of Tennessee against James
U. Davis came up tor argument in the
United States Supreme Court to-day,
upon a division in the United States
Circuit Oourt for the middle d strict of
Tennessee. DavIb, who is a deputy col
lector of internal revenue, was indicted
in the State court of Tenneesee for the
murder of JameB B. Haynes, a citizen of
that State. Upon petition for removal
of the case from the State court to the
United S:ate3 Circuit Court, under sec
tion 613 of the revised statutes, the lower
court was.divided,and tho case now comes
here for adjudication. The main qufcs
tion to be discussed, in the words of At
torney Devens’ brief, is substantially the
same ns that which baa for over half a
century been debated in Congress and be
fore the country, viz: whether the United
States Constitution is a frame of
Governm nt created by tho people and
acting directly from and npon individ
uals, or is merely a compact or league 0
sovereign S:atev. Those who insiat that
the general government is purely Federal
and not National in its charaoter, are
logioilly compelled to deny the right to
remove any cause from a State to Fed-ir-
al court and to declare tbe act oE 1789,
auction twenty, unconstitutional, bec&n e
if an; right of removal exists it mast ex
tend alike to civil and criminal oases, an
extent to which, as well as time and
manner, in which it ehali be exercised
whenever Federal laws or their exsontion
is concerned, is a question of expediency
and not of powers.
