StJPEKXS Cosbt.—A few days ago, in the United Statu Supreme Court, Justice Field, In delivering a dUaexiting opinion 19 to tho oonstitution^Lty of the Thorman Pacific Bailtoad Funding act, intimated, in rather broad terms, that the views of the majority of the Court, as announced in the opinion submitted, had a tendency for cerlraliaation, and then went into an argument advancing rathe: pointedly tho dootrino of State xighta. The majority of the members of the Court have, in view of what (hey deemJnJge Fields’breach of decorum, a proposition under adviaement to adopt as a role of the Court that, hereafter, all dissenting opinions shall first be submit ted to the Ocnrt in its private conanliation room. A member of the Court told a practi tioner before it on the day that Judge Field delivered hie opinion, that the Conrt would certainly not have submitted to such a lec ture from an attorney making argument be fore It, and that it ought to exercise the right to prevent a member in the minority in a oaee fs6m obtruding views which refleet upon the other Justices of the Court. Bossxa’a Etock Acoriox. — New York special to the Cincinnati Commercial: The great auction sale of trotters and trotting stock from the farm of Bobsri Bonner, took place in this oily to-day and attracted proba bly the largest and most notable gathering of horsemen ever ass emb’.ed in this oonntry. Daring tho morning 1c was estimated that more than five thousand persons visited the grounds. Too list of noted turfman, breed ers and haras fanciers in attendance would oomprue hundreds of names. Many promi nent ones came to attend tha tales from’Nsw England, the West and South, and indeed all parts of the eoantry. Among the e'gfaty eight Mr. Bonner offered were the slx-year- oldgelflioSvEjkjUbrses; gad thiity-five hor ses from yearlings to five year olds. Bidding throughout the eale was spirited, and satis factory prices were obtained for ohoice.yet buyers in the main thick they hive made very good bargains for themsolves. The total amount realized waa $37,74), a fraction lees than <403 per head. Keene Jim, the moat valuable horse sold, bred by George F. Keene, of Kentucky, wee bought by Charles A. Dans, of tho New York Sun, for $4,COO. —The battle of Torgan, fought by Fred erick the Great in 1760, ia well known to have been one of the moat murderously con tested aciions which has ever taken place but until lately no trustworthy enumeration haa ever been given of the killed, wounded, and missing on either tide. In the last number of the Hilitsr Wochenbiatt, the organ of the German general staff, carefnlly pre pared tables are published of the losses suf fered by the several Prussian regiments of cavslry and battalions of infantry engaged, and from these it appears that the fifty-nine battalions which took part in the notion, and Which cambered altogether 26,000 officers and men, lost a total cf . 16.65) officers and men, or about 69 per oent. of their aggregate affective. In tho thirty-nine battalions which fought under the personal direction and im mediate orders of the King, the proportion of losses was even graator, so that, after the action, th3 five battalions of grenadiers had to be fortned into one battalion, the remnants of six battalions of two other regiments being also temporarily organized into ono battalion. Of tha 26.000 Infantry soldiers who went into action, 8,859 were killed, 7.956 Were wounded, and 8,130 were reported as misting. As a contrast to this terrible pro portion of killed, wounded, and missing, it may bo mentioned that the loss at Gravelotte waa oolyl-Uth of the wboio nnmber of troops engaged on both eides, at Worth and Mars-U-Tonr 16th, at Splaheren 1 8tb, at Konlggratz, l-15ih only, and at Magenta and Solferino l-llth. asAsxaEriEcn is Vrnorsu Cmr.—Vib- arsii City, Nev., Oct 2).—Gen.

Subse quently he vijitad tho hall or tho Pamfia Coast Pioneers, and was mado an honorary member. Col Hobart Taylor delivered the address, to which tho General responded as follows: Mr. President, ladies indgcnUemen, mem here of tho 8oclo!y of Paci3s Coast rionaeis, your President has already said what I feel In appreciation of my reception hers.

Yet at the same time we thick considerably of onrselves, and we are a lit tie conceited over onr advantages. (Laughter.) Newspapers and politicians, however, think there are a good many bad people in the world, and that things are on tho verge of ruin, bnt I guess we are all right. (.Laughter.)

More Of the Fair. It is impossible to take in and des cribe the vast nnmber of exhibits whloh have justly made tha State Fair of the Georgia Agricultural Society d! 1879, the most famous and oomplete bn record. At every step some pleasing objeot would transfix the attention of the visitor, and new beauties end unique displays wets continually challenging his admiration- Especially ia it hard to make fitting men tion of the transcendent beauties of Flo ral Hall, where the handiwork of Mr. Woodruff, the well known florist, and the eiqiiaite taste of the ladies of Ma con had their falleat exemplification. Ho, too, of the Art Gallery and the many ohoice pictures on exhibition there, which it wonld require days to atady and appre ciate. The groups of merchandise artistically arranged on every aide, made up a dis play alco, which for beauty and excel lence, cannot be beaten in tbu Sonth. These illustrated the attractive wares of many of onr leading merchants. Among them should be named the display of Bclind B. Hall,whose frsg&nt perfumery scented tho adjacent atmosphere, Messrs. Boat, Rankin & Lamar, Barnd Bros., John Valentino, Thomas Wood, Charles Campbell, George Burr, William Peitaar, Winship A Callaway, Waohtsl & Bro.i J. W. Burke A Co., Chess, Garley A Co., F. Beichertand others. Id addition, the displays from abroad were very extensive and excellent. Men tion has already been mads of many of these, bat the magnificent speolmen of one of TAIBBANXS PCLt.tr, exhibited by Messrs. Carhact A Card, is deserving of more than a passing notice. It is, in all respeots, complete, and so delicately adjusted that almost a hair will torn the balances. Theeoslesare also very elegantly finished and will form handsome ornament to any business establishment. Among those to whom were awarded premiums, MZSSBS. CKARLX3 WACHTZL A BBO. are deserving of prominent notice. Their display of clothing and famishing goods wab one of the most excellent and at tractive ever seen in the State. They hara a very large and fashionable stock of goods covering all styles of gentle men's and youth’s clothing, hats, under wear, etc., ate., all nobby and nice, and are vastly proud of the shining medal they have received and placed on exaibi- tion. THB PLOWING MATCH. It wonld be wrong to close these ram- bUcg fair notes without honorable men tion of the nnmerons plows of the latest and moat approved patterns, whose excel lence were tested by the farrows they oast inside of the mile track. Some of these were equal to reapeotable ditohes, and moat effectually upturned the soil to the depth of ten inches, completely cov ering up weeds, atabble, etc. Mr. B. F. Avery, of Atlanta, had the largest dis play, and his two horse sulky plow would be a perfect treasure in breaking a Western prairie. He also exhibited a full line of caat and steel plows, and a culti vator whioh finishes off a ro w of corn o r cotton on both sides with a single farrow' Messrs. Murray A Keaton, of Milledge- ville, also exhibited an exsellent combi nation eeed planter, and there were many other farming implements on the grounds “ .— »^iiwants wa) a splendid snoooss, and seldom has so little drunkenness or disorder teen seen in a crowd of such magnitude. Death ol Don. Zaeh Chandler. The sadden death of Senator Chandler, of Michigan, is one of the news items by the day telegrams of yesterday, the par ticulars of whloh will be found among the despatches. It oocurred in the Grand Pacific Hotel, in Chicago. Tne Senator was on his retain from Wisconsin, where he had been stamping, and had made a speeoh during the previous evening in Chicago. At seven o’clook yesterday morning, at whioh hoar he had left an or der to be called to continue his journey hom», he was found dead on his hed, though not qaite cold. Senator Chandler had passed his three score and ten, but was a man of robnst frame and extraordinary vigor for his years. He will be missed in the oonnsels of the stalwarts, for among the audacious he look the lead. Wo doubt whether there is another man on the Ooniinent who could hava planned and executed, without a moment’s hesitation or flinoh- ing, the enterprise of counting in, as President of the United States,'a man oleatly defeated both on the popular and electoral vote by large major! tiee. With out his nerve and reckless daring, that enterprise would have fallen through. A sorehead Speaks Oat.

Washington, October 29.—Gossip in legal circles ia that decisions in the po litical eases ' recently argued before the Supreme Court may not be expeoted for some time. The impression,seams to be that in soy of the cases where the oooit oan avoid rendering aa opinion on tha idea ot want of jnriadiction it will do so. It is supposed that possibly this may be the fate of the Virginia caess. With re gard to some of the other cases, the court can promulgate a deoioion without trenching npou the question ot the oon stitntionality of the eleotion laws of Con' grese. The Maryland case is considered as tbe most complicated of all, and it has been held by some of the members of the bar that the court, in considering this case, most' face the naked question of constitutionality. Oiber eminent mem bers of the bar hold, however, that even in the Maryland case tbe court may, if bo disposed, glvo relief to the petitions and still find a loopbsle to escape the discussion of this question. Bat there appears to bs little if aay dissent from the view that the oourt, if it is forced to .decide upon the constitutionality ot the election Jaws, will decide that question in the affirmative. This ia also tne view held by members ot the administration and others whs are prominent in the Bepnblioin party. Hence there is sig nlficanoe in the remark just made by Seeretary Sherman that as soen as the Republicans regain control of Congress they will enact additional and more strin gent provisions with-reference to the eleotive franobise. Perhaps they will bring forward a sale the notorious force bill which the Bepubiloana came so near passing i i the dying hours of the Fotty- tbird Congress. Ool. John C. Burch, the Secretary of the Senate, will arrive in Washington to-morrow, with hie family to remain for the winter. Col. Batch has taken a handsome house on Vermont avenue. THE TBSEDUEN’S BASK. Senator Bruce states that the exam! nation into the affaire of the Freed- men’a Bank, which has been in progress for some tim9 by tbe experts appointed for that purpose, will bs oompleted to such an extent aa to warrant the prepa ration of a report on the subject by the time cf the meeting of Congress. The report will first be submitted to the spe cial committee, of which Mr. Brace is chairman, and It will then be determined whether it shall be made public. Mr. Brace apparently does not care ts speak very freely in regard to tha inveetiga tion. It is understood that this reticence of Mr. Bruce is cansed by representations whioh hava been made to him that he wonld injure the Republican party pros peeta if he talked too much about the dis closure. The Democrats have not really expected to make any party capital out of the investigation, ae they have thought the whole thing had been pretty well dis counted. There is reason to believe, however, that discoveries* have recently been made of a startling character, and which implicate persona whose names hare not heretofore been contsited in a discreditable way with the affairs of the institution. soaps and peifumeries. They algo had a instructions to Virginia. The instructions issued by Mr. Hayes to the Virginia voters as to bow they ehould vote on the bond qaeation, are quite unexceptionable in their oharaoter; but the practice of giving each instrue lions is a bad one. The preoedent is dangerous. It is ia tbe esseuoe of a free popular government that the peopio should be allowed to vote aooording to their own nill and judgment, and not according to those of the administration at Washington. The ideas advanced by the Republicans that instructions how to vote shonld first emanato from the na tional capital, and then that snpervte ion backed by a military force shonld be eent into the States to enforce complt ancs with enoh instructions, however vigorous it may appear, does, not aocord with the anoient constitutional ua3gej of tbe country.

Captain Williams, of the sknll-oraokers, has been mdioted whiio yet his trial is going on 'before a civil tribunal. The great point in issue is can a man oarry a whole skull from the Park to the Battery? Several have tried it and failed. The streets era crowded with people moam- ing over fissures in their ekalle like Bi- ohel weeping for her children. The ef fort to organise a skull insurance oompsDj failed. The risk was too great and the premiums consequently too high. A OABD.

The list man in too world we should have expeoted to put their foot in it and nuke any kind of a difficulty with toe Executive Committee. And yet there has been tronble and the State ought to know it.' Bnt what it is we have failed ae yet to disoover, though wa are on tha traok, and ehall know all about it bafore we are done. When the thieg was hinted to ns we at onoe guessed that doubtless Atlanta wm at the bsttom of it, and possibly the ad journment of toe North Gaor.-ia was due to the suggestion of some meddlesome Metho dist or Presbyterian or Baptist brother, and ao the affair had got badly mixed. We set about all sorts or enquiries, and sent ont lota of interviewers, but up to the time of this writing not one jot or tittle of evidenee can we get in that direction. And we be lieve on onr honor as impartial interviewers, that tha preachers had no hand in that breach of faith with the State Fair Now we confess to be at a lose to acoonnt for the fact that tbe Exeentlve Committee has with held the usual courtesy of complimentary tickets from Ministers toUyear,and they have had to pay their way liko oilier poor sinners, or stay outside. At the same time wa do not wish to misjudge the ExeouUve Committee, who paes.bjy wished to keep the preachers out or the way of temptation at toe races, or at any rate to throw tbe reapoaalbili.y of their going upon themselves. Ur to give the Committee ere lit for some small modicum of compunction about thsse races, we are willing to allow that as they furnished per haps the best part of the show outside 'tbe buildings, it was to be sxpectafi that the Committee was to prerer to keep toe preach ers in tbs dark somewhat about the true facts. Beside we understand the same meaanre was meted ont to the representa tives of the religious newspapers as to the preachers, while every other section of the fourth estate “was freely invited and ticket ed “complimentary’’ through. What does all this mean? If the complimentary tickets are to be dropped altogether, let it be so, and ministers have no oomplaint to make. Bat that this exclusion of all things pecu liarly religious, preaohsra and newspapers bring specially embargoed should be (made is a novolty and requires some explanation. And it had better no made as many pat- ronB of the State Agricultural Society are interacted and concerned not to make it a religions or even a political maohine bnt cer tainly that it ahall not set a mark upon those who as a rale are roform it, and by doing so assume a position cf antagonism to what many people regard as the beet things. , • It is rather ur.fortunite ia this conneotion that while ministers arc refused an'old time oonrteey gamblers, sharpers and conQdecoo men We:e aUonoi openly to practice their callings, and probably had paid for toe op portunity to do so in order to swell the tuadf) or the F&ir.xnd Society.

Aa upon a repetition silence prevailed, the clerk effected an entrance through the transom and found that the Senator was dead.

Ho does not assume to command or OOfl- trol the Republicans of Virginia nor Bsek to iefinenoe the actions of the Fed eral officers. He would be surprised U the Republicans allied themselves with tbe readjustee. They shonld not coun tenance any proposition whatever that contains the germ of repudiation, an# most not sacrifice the principles involved in tha payment ot Virginia’s honert debts. Virginia is making the greatest mistake of her life. Readjustment is ia principle repudiation. No speculative men will ever settle in Viginia unless her people are honest and .psy what they ewe. He knows his views on this sub ject ore entertained by Grant, Blaine, Sherman and all the leading Republi cans of the North, East and West. Some Southern Republicans will not op pose such leaders. He had inquired if the Federal officials of Virginia were not supporting the question cf payment and was gra'ifiej to hear that they were. He said he hoped the colored people would not be misled by the apparis of dema gog res and induoed to vote against the party of honesty and right. New Orleans, Nov. 1.—fba following letter will explain itself: St. Joteph, La, Oct. 28, 1879 —Him. A. L Dumont, President State Central Committee of the Republican Party of Lou. ■izianaz Dear sit—Yours dated Ootober 221 reached me yesterday. It is with great surprise that I learn of the action of the Convention towards myself. Had the slightest intimation rescued me in time, mat such action was proposed, I would have prevented some little tronble. Although always deeply interested in the welfare of your State and the general country, I have never been, iu any sense of the word, a politician, and do not pro- p Me, at this late d3y, to enter the po litical arena. While I firmly believe that the principles of the National Republican patty are beet for the government of this nation; while I believe in a strong national government for national affaire, ia . a dollar that is worth one hundred cents, in tbe protection of-all in equal rights, and while I believe that the idea of a solid South has been, is and if it prevails al ways will be aa “Iliad of woes” to tha Southern people, I am not vain enough to think that any effort of mine or nse of my name will materially promote tbs. spread of these principles or retard tbe progress of the solidification. Even could I-be convinced that such might be- the cose, that as one of yonr standard bearers I might do something for the' general good, my health and business positively forbid euoh notion. Given a free vote and a • fa'r ouuat, and I feel oonfidf at the ticket will win in Decem ber whether my name ia on it or not; and without a free vote and a fair ooant tbe name of George -Washington himself would avail nothing. I-zinoerely thank the convention. For the. resassa given above, I mast beg leave to deoline the nomination. I am sir, very respectfully, yonr obedient servant. [Signed] Jas. M. Gillesme.
