AS DSPABBOSABLE OMISSION for which my apologias are nareby rendered appeared in my yesterday's (not rcceito 1) let ter. I hadn’t a word About the Senate. It is al most a hanging orime, to bo sure, but never theleas I committed it. Well, then, to com mence with Wheeler who ooeupied the chair for the first time since May. I don’t know anything of publio interest to say about him except that a colossal floral pyramid graced his desk, evidently the handiwork of some damo or damsel who remembers bis lonely condition as a widower. Other favored Bolona in this lino were the magnificent Burnside—another w.dower—Logan, Thur man. Eaton, Davis, Cuke. Kirkwood, Wuyto and one or two o.hers Old man Kirkwood, who id a granger all over, including hie boots and hay seed in his hair, looked as pleas-.d as if he had cap.ured abigpnrse at a fair and stalked around his bouquet pausing at inter vals and positions to fundiy eye it. If there is a Mrs. K. I should advi.e her to come on here at once, for it is very evident that her "old man” is susceptible Ospricorcus Conk- Hug appeared np to bis eyes in work but g raciously ailowod tho few who approached is desk to shako his hand and inquire after bis hoalth. He has evidently been really ill, aa his appearance pUin'y indicates, but how muchof it is due to malaria andhow much to the remembrance of the bibulous Sprague's shotgun, I don't know. He doesn't seam quite so topioftieal as usual hut alill shows symptoms of smelling someihtng not very fragrant in his immediate neighborhood I hardly think after the shot gnu lesion at C&rrcnicna that ho will continue to be the magnificent enob he was b.foro. The ven erable Hamlin wore the same epike-tail in which he was sworn into office as Vice Presi dent with Lincoln and looked sourer and moie “d—d the Democrats - ’ than ever. Of course ho still scornB an overcoat &e superlatively effeminate, th ogh ulsters were tramps out doors with everybody else. A rough and tough oil party is the venerable Hannibal ana as honest a hater of Southern white folks ae yon oan find anywhere. Ma’t Car penter looked ovenmoro like a Bowery boy than usual with a cigar in his month, bis slonch hat crashed down over hit eyes and a general air of having made a n'gbt of it. Judge Timiman looked calm and sorone — bluff and hearty—and took snuff and waved that famous bandanna aa utuil. He doesn’t show a trace of having been sat down upon In October. Bayard, looking decidedly hand somer than ever,and with a healthful bronze on his noblo face that told of recent sea travel, was tho recipient of manyjcongratula- tions. Edmunds seemed to me grimmer than ovo- and as if actually longing for an opportunity to get at tho Democrats and the Sooth Many well-known faces wore miss ing, among them Lamar and (Till. Gordon wib present, erect and soldierly looking and genial as ever, with a frank cordial greeting and smilo for all By the way, I had nearly forgotten John Logan, who looked blacker and more brutal than usual, and was much less precise in his aim at the spitioon—when be took cny—than last session, and evidently was faiiy yearning to get at and smash the English language with his usual vigor. Bruce, aauensl. was the most faultlessly dressed man in tho lot and behaved with the most faultless propriety. His wife was in the ladies gallery and was stared at unmer cifully—far beytnd the point of good breed ing, as it seemed to me. Tho starers wero however, evidently fresh Northern people doing Washington for tho first time. Blame was conspicuously absent. Ho is one of tbs "stars,” andev.rybody on such occasions wants to see him. In conscquanee of his absence the proceedings wore pretemalur- ally dull, and Allison's announcement of Oh&udler’o death was allowed to stand as a reason and occasion for adjournment lam sore if B’aiae bad been prosent things wonld not have been allowed to pass off so monoto nously. 1BELO.K in regard to the length of the session and ooureo and character of legislation, shows wide differences of opinion. It will be the policy and iffort of the Democrats, if they do what is so plainly indicated to thorn, to have a short one full of buainess and very scant ae to chin mueio. That is their policy, so that I don't see how anybody can dispute it Transact all necessary business and then go home to tho stamp and their constituents. Next year will be about the most important one in .ho history of the party it has ever known ami it can't stand any mistakes or foolishness. If the Democrats allow “’“•p- ■aIum .a a- —tiiio a repeti tion of past mistakes, then good bye Democracy at tho polls m November. We will hardly havo another chanco. Tbo Badioals know this and their aim will b3 for a long session and a constant bedevilment and irritation of our people into talking instead of working. They will hin der business ae much as passible and then when tho time has been wasted roil their eyes, throw np their bands and charge it all on the majority. If they can have tseir way tho session will run into July. If tho Demo crats show their sense, oarly Juno will seo an adjournment. If there were not quite eo many statesmen on one side for whom the Eouudof their own voices and tho appear ance of their names in the Record and news papers gcncraly has such fascination I should not doubt the Jane programme’s be- ing ea-iiy earned out. But I do think of it and donbt if the newspapers at home will keep np tho refrain of a business and theto- foro a short eossion it would certainly help and I modestly suggest it With this policy carried ont and a candidate who is worthy to lead a groa' party, the prospect does not teem so bine es it did aftor tho October shower halts. P. ts. This, of course, means that Gramcrcy Park is ruled out. I hardly think the party can carry that load again. NieCELLANEOES. Mr. Howard Williams, late of the Dis patch, is here representing the Atlanta Con stitution. I am sure this will be good news to the rcadeie of that paper. Mr. Itandail, of the Augusta Chronicle, will, I hear also resume bis capital letters to that paper when ho return* from New Or leans with Mr. Hill e committee and x trust, may aleo drop into something cffitially fat at the other end of the cpltoL To a man eo enraptured with Washington lifo, I can ooccnivo of note ing moro satisfactory Another Georgian Journalist finds hie lines oast in pleasant places this BO: s'on and I trait will have all bis anticipations folly realized. As tally clerk of ths House, Mr. Eugene Speer has a first class position, which I trust bo will always find pleasant. He mado a capital editor, and I am persuad ed will reflect equal credit npsn himself in his n6tv role. I do not hear much comment upon Dr. Felton a lato letter. Bomobow it has scarce ly found its way into other than Badieal Journal* in this and latitudes further North. Of course the Dr. will horeatter have noth ing more to do with Democratic oxucuses or party action. I have not Been it, but Lom what I hoar, ii must be a document not en tirely unpleasant to tho opposition. And etrange to say, I have heard tno same opin ion expressed by many other Democrats Mr. Cutts, of Anconeus, who was c’.eik to Gen. Cook’s committee last eeaiion, tells mo be is now in the P. O. Department and that Mr. Phillip Cook. Jr. will hereafter flit tho first named place. I trust both gentle men will find the change eminently satisfac tory. A. W. B. BY TELEGRAPH. The Ut*l—Tho news of yesterday tenders it highly prcbabla that there will bo no further trouble with the Utos. On Monday last one of tho ohiefs who, in conjunction with Jock led the assault on Thornburgh, mode confession and sur rendered himself a prisoner to tho Com mission. He also implicated the Mor mons so far as to testify that they had promieed to assist tho Indians in any wsr with the United States. It now remains for Chief Jack to surrender and unbosom himself. The Utes evidently see the hopelessness cf resistance, and have con cluded to accept defeat without a fight. Tub Chilians seem to be overruuing the Peruvians. The capture of still an other important town in Peru is an nounced, with heavy loss on both sides. "There may be some virtue in all of them," he said, “but for aotnal worth and rapidity of effect I know nothing medo that can excel Dr. Bull’d Cough Byrup.” _ One of tho moat essential conditions of perfect health is perfect rest. This can be assured to the baby by jadiciously using Dr. Bali's Baby Syrup. Sold ev erywhere for 26 centB a bottle. Try ii; keep trying it, and try it agala. We say this because we believe thet the health, happisera and prosperity of the people depend upon the proper use cf these medicines, which have proved eo successful in eradicating disease and de feating death. The medicine is go effec tive in its cute of diseases is the greet Southern remedy, Simmons’ Liver Kegm lator. Try it; we believe that the first trial will be satisfactory. * Denver, Con, December 4.—A Lss Pinos special says Chief Colarow appear ed before tbo commission on Monday and testified that be took part in tho Thorn burgh fight, corroborating the statement that he aud Jack led ths Indians in the fight. He states the fight was an accident. The troops wero trying to avoid the Utes by taking a trail outside the regular rosd, through Milk river canon, while the Utes were doing the same to avoid the soldiers. They were surprised when the commands came up and began the fight. Coiorow swore positively that the Mor mons promised to assist the Indians in any war with the United States troops. He voluntarily surrendered himself as a prisoner. Buffalo, N. Y. Dec. 4—The Beard of Directors of the National Base Ball League Association met, and the cham pionship pennant award was made to the Providing Club. An application of the Cincinnati Club was reported favorably. The membership of the Syracuse Stare Club was declared forfeited by their fail ure to play out the schedule list of games. The schedule game between the Chicago and Cincinnati Clnb3 for August 13th, was declared forfeited to the Chicago’s, placing them third. N. E. Young was re- eleoted Secretary. The newly organized Ulucionnii Olab was admitted to member ship. St. Loots, December 4.—Tho flouring mill of J. Schreiner, at Manchester, was burned yesterday. Thirty to forty thou sand bushels of wheat and a considerable quantity of flour were destroyed. Tho loea is fifty thousand and the insurance thirty thousand dollars, Chicago, December 4.—The bicycle race for sixty miles was won last night by Terrant—boating Bilard and the Har rison brothers, each of whom bad a stretch of twenty miles. Torrant’s best mile was three minutes end twenty seo- onda. Scranton, Pa., December 4.—Yester day the men, numbering 600, employed in the shops of tbo Delaware, Laokawans & Western railroad la Scranton were no tified of an advanoe of from five to ten per cent, in their wages without any re quest on their part. London, December 4.—A Buenos Ayres dispatch, dated the 3d instant, says intelligence bus been reoeiTei here that the allied Henman and Bolivians have been completely defeated at Tarapnaa, Pern, by the Chilians, who have taken poBsossion of tho town. Tho Chilian squadron is blockading the port of Arioa. A dispatch from Valparaiso to Reuter’e telegram company says Taiapuco has been captured by tho Chilians. The losees are heavy on both sides. New York, December 4.—Wn. C. Gi’man, sentenced in 1877 to five years in the State prison for perjury, and whose case attracted muah attention at the time, from his social standing, an 1 the confession made by the prisoner, was yesterday released from Sing Sing, Gov ernor Bobinson having commuted bis sentence from firs y„&ra to two years, one month -rad twenty days. A petition, signed by wealthy and influential persona of New York City, had been presented to the Governor for Gilman’s pardon, which he declined to grant, and also & request later of ex-Governor Horatio Seymour, presumably in conscquenoe of Gilman’s additional weightof woe in the deathof bis daughter and wife be has now consented to this special commutation. It is gener ally supposed the Governor was actuated to grant this commutation by reading a notice of the death of Mrs. Gilman, so suddenly did the document make its ap pearance, and with the idea that ho should be enabled to attend ber fu neral. Washington, Decamber 4.—Iu the Senato a number of private bills were in croanosa, tuao auntvj znt’. mornll t* facilitate the refunding nt «*•' national debt. On motion of Mr. Thurman tho Senate resolved when it adjourns.to-day, it will be to meet Monday. Mr. Carpenter offered a resolution that the resumption of circulation of gold, sil ver and greenbacks as lawful money, and the expectation that finances Would not be disturbed by precipitate legislation had been followed by renewed industry and general prosperity. That a success ful conduct of business depends upon a stable fiasnot&l policy, and that, there fore. in the opinion of the Senate, any legislation during the present Sena'?, materially changing the existing system of finaace wonld be inexpedient. At 11.30, the Senate went into Execu tive session. At 12.45 the doors were reopened and Senate adjourned until Monday. In the House among tho bills and res olutions introduced and referred was oao by Gillett, of Iowa, declaring that Con gress is opposed to any reduction in the volume of United States legal tender notes, but on the contrary, in favor of substituting Greenbacks for National bank notes, and that it is in favor of free and unrestricted coinage of the 412J grain silver dollar. The House then, at I2i30, went Into Oommittle of the Whole for the purpose of distributing the President's mer« gage. Having distributed the President’s message among the appropriate commit tees, ’the House adjourned until Monday. The bill introduced to-day by Morrill to facilitate the refunding of the Na tional debt is a duplicate of the Treasury Department bill introduced in the House yesterday by Garfield. Atlanta, December 4.—George Mans field WHS killed at Jonesboro last night by J. M. Walker. They were opposing candidates for intendant, and were eleo- tioneeriog.

Great crowds of troops lined the streets, cheering him en thusiastically. London, December 4.—The _ Berlin correspondent of the limes explains that tho Czar's railway journeys are generally made with two trains, one tor himself and suite and tho other for servants and baggage. Hitherto it has been custom ary to allow trains to act a3 a kind of eclaireur. Ou the present jonraey this order somehow became reversed and tho imperial train took the front position.

Waddington, replying la behalf of the government, said " the Cabinet rep resents various opinions, which find rep resentati7es in ths Chambers, Without us, the Chamber would not have returned to Paris. The government wonld, he said, recall magistrates to & sense of their duty, and respect to the fpublio* It will not give full liberty to the press, because the government is opposed to the liberty of outrage. It will give liberty of asso ciation when all parties disarm.” London, Deoember 4 — Messrs. Par nell and Finnegan expect to start for New York on the 17tb instant.

The Bachelor Department of the Chronicle and Constitutionalist has been presented with a tiny pincushion as a reminder to Stovall of the days when he used to get "stack." Being shaped alter the pattern of a lady’s foot it will doubt less also serve to remind him of tho days upon which he got kioked. R. A.

A Savannah policeman attempted to arrest a vagrant mule yesterday, but the animal deolined a lodging at the pound to such an extent that he had to be chloro- foimcd. Mumfsbd, of the Southern Rifles, is a deadly shot with the army gun, as his exploits during the late target prootice abundantly proves : ho can drive almost anything at one hundred yards, including tho markers.

Proxx-sob White, in Athens, gave the University boys a blowing up the other day. The Daily Banner says: While the class in chemistry at the University yesterday wes engaged in watohing the interesting experiments of Professor Whito in combining and ex ploding gases, a bottle filled with pure oxygen and ethane gas was shivered by the explosion and hnrled in fragments over the room. S,v«rat members of tho olaes were struck by pieces of tho bottle, bat fortunately none were seriously hurt. Messrs. Camp, Howell, McRae and Wot- ton were the most damaged ones, being out about tbo head and face, but not enough to cause any of them to lose a recitalkn The bottle was one that had been frequently used in similar experi ments, and no one was more surprised at its bursting than Professor White, who touched the fixme to the gas. The pieces flew in tho opposite direction from the Professor. If they had gone towards him, he wonld mo3t probably have been badly hurt. The noise of the explosion was deafening, and the eoaro was one that will not soon be forgotten. It wes a good deal larger than the hurt. Talbotton Standard: We iearathat a dreadful fight oocurred in that district in Talbot, known as Cracker’s Neck, on Sunday morning between two yonng men, Robert Hancock and Nathan Isom It seems that tho men had fallen out about something and got into a fight at the time mentioned, when Hancock knocked Isom down with a huge rock, knocking all his teeth down his throat, and after be fell, struck him several times on the head with a huge rook. Ieom was picked np for dead and carried home, where at last accounts, he lay in a critioal condition, and ere this is read he is no donbt dead. Drs. Bryan and Birdsong were summoned and took from his head numbers of pieces of his fractured skull. The rock with whioh the awful work was done was oovered with blood, hair and the brains of the n&fortunate man. Young Hancock was arrested on Sunday evening and tnrncd over to a bailiff, from whom, we learn he has made bis escape and fled the country. Ho claimed Isom was rushing on him with a knife .when he knocked him down. It ia an nnfortunato affair and creates great sorrow in the community where It occurred as both the young men were olever, hard working boys and well oon neoted.

Swainsbobo Herald: Dootor Bcoven left at our office last Wednesday a dry sud well matured M.xiosa squash 44 inches long, from 2} to 4 inches in diameter He said it growed on Mr. Jaoob Leicks plaoe, on a vine that came from a seed direot from Mexico. He eaid he etw the vine last summer when it was in its meat luxuriant state, and that it was im mense—tunning from 45 to 50 feet every direction, bearing quite a number of quashes, each largo enough for a full mess for a large family. He also states that he eat some of them and found them mnch sweater end more delicious than any other species of equash he ever eat. The squash is now on exhibition at tbe Herald office, and those wishing to sse it are invited to call and take a look ot it. Exchange: General Eli Warren, of Houston oocnty, said be was the first man in Georgia who ever picked a hundred pounds of cotton ip. one day. This oc curred about fifty years ago. The Chronicle and Constitutionalist is reaponible for the comment which fol Iowa the clipping givsn below. There is a spioe of revenge in the dosing sentence wnioh leads ns to believe that the eucoesB ot Ha Mayoralty tiokot has not compen sated that paper for other disappoint ments. Thebe have been sixteen executions of females in England since Victoria’s ac cession to the throne, and during tbe same period only one woman was hung in this country,—Few Tori: Star. The Star is mistaken. We know of three women who have been hung in this country since the war, and there were doubtless other exeontions that es caped onr attention. Mrs. Surratt was hung in Washington City in 1865; Susan Eberharc was hung in Webster county, Georgia, in 1878 or 1874, for assisting her paramour to marder his wife; and abont the same time a colored woman wsa hung in Elbert oounty, Georgia, for poisoning her rival. Of course, we leave out of our list—for want of spsot—the names of women who ought to have been hang, bat who were not. For our selves, we think women have the same right to be haDg ns men have, acd we trust the day will soon come when this right will be folly accorded them. The Sparta Ishmaelite eaye: We suspect any man’s fealty to Domo cratio principles who finds matter either of comfort or of rejoioingin Dr. Felton’s denuno ation, in a Radical paper, of the party of which he professes to be a mem ber. There can be no sort of doubt of Dr. Felton’s right to give aid and com fort to the enemies of his people, if he sees proper so to do. There esn be no doubt of the faoi that ho has seen proper to do eo; aud that he bns accomplished it with a great deal of Pharisaical self complacency. But we insist upon it that there is something of unmitigated mean ness in a man’s stabbing the party of which he professes to be a member, with a dagger borrowid or Btolen from tbe Badioals. No wonder the letter is comforting to the small boy of the Republican. No wonder he feels satisfied with the lsngths to whioh it goes, and hastens to disoharge himself of u thanksgiving editorial on tho eub- jeot. If he will take himself by the ears and bold himself still long enough to get ccol, ho may possibly be wise onongh to discover that tbe ambitions patson has overdone the thing entirely. In getting into a rage and tearing his political shirt ho exposes only his own unseemly bris tles. Ia endeavoring, Him like, to ex pose the Demooraoy to the ribald jeers of the Jacobins, bo has displayed his onn uncomely and nnkempt nakedness.

Savannah Hews : Between three and four o’clock yesterday afternoon qnite a serious affray occurred at the Waiballa saloon, corner of Whitaker and Bryan streets. In the pool room atlaohed to tbe saloon, a young mao, whose name we understand is Cranston, had been aoting in a disorderly manner, and as he was at der the influence of liquor, tho bar keeper, Mr. Herter, promptly "fired bim out.” Subsequently, wbilet Mr. Herter was behind tbe counter, with his back tnrncd, Cranston, who had stepped into the plaoe again, approaoh- ed nim quietly, with a billiard cue in his haud, and suddenly struck Herter on the head with the heavy part of the cue, com pletely shivering it and knocking him to the floor in a semi-unconscious state. The disturbance attracted the attention of Magistrate Russell, whose office adjoins, and who with a couple of officers has tened into the saloon to ascertain the osuso. An attempt was made to arrest Cranston, but he showed resistance, and it was only after difficulty that he was se cured and carried over to the office, whero ho was placed under the charge of Con stable White, a warrant meanwhile hav ing been issued. Daring tho temporary absence of Magistrate Russell, the young man attempted to leave theplace, when offi cer White told him ho was a prisoner and oould not depatt. The prisoner re plied, it is stated, that ho would cut the heart out of any cnc who interfered with him, and displayed &n ngly kuife as token of his esrnestnees. He managed to get out of the offioe, and with knife in hand endeavored to enter the Waiballa saloon again. Officer Whito followed him and a struggle ensued, which resulted in the discomfiture of Cranston, who reoeivsd a severe blow on tbe head tith a billy or club in tho bends of efiioer White, who was compelled to defend himself as the young man ap peared determined to cut him. Meanwhile a physician had been sum moned to attend to Mr. Herter, and in a short timo Dr. Fernand arrived, and af ter an examination of Herter’s head found that the billiard cue had cut the ecslp to tho bone, inflicting a very ugly, though not necessarily fatal injury. He will, however, be confined to his room for a fortnight or more. After a good deal of wrangling, which collected quite a crowd, Cranston was subjugated and allowed to wash the blood off his face. He was then put in a wagon and sent to jail, where ho will bo kept until an investigation oan be had. Returned Jixodusters. A Mississippi correspondent of the Nashville American has this to say about the meagre few of the Kansas Exodusters who have managed to crawl back decrepit ana forlorn to their old stamping ground on the Mississippi: Tho returning few who have been able to get back from tho "happy land,” have had a wonderful effect in ohilling the ar dor of the prospective emigrant Their abject poverty, their rags and their piiObed faces, fella far more eloquent story, and one that touches the heart of the negro more foroibly than their verbal accounts of suffering and want, of disease and death, of famine and cold. Some, who a year ago left with full parses, goad teams, and ell the necessary comforts; who left with buoyant hopes and joy;u3 anticipations of tho cosy oot- tage, the green pastures, the fertile fields and the abundant crops, with the beanti- fnl prairie stretohing away to the borison with herds of buffalo, deer and antelopes in tbe dlstanoe, and all sorts of things to make np the picture like the cheap chro me, whioh delighted their eyes and fed to excess their imagination, have returned, broken in spirit and in fbrtnne, having Isft their teams and honeshold goods in strangers’ hands, having left some of their loved ones sleeping beneath the in hospitable sod of Kansas, glad, only too happy to get baok themselves to their sunny Southern home, poorer in tht3 world’s goods, but richer far in c-xp:rl- enco. Ethereal mildness still characterizes tho weather. The temperature yester day was like April. Okbw Jaceboi’i Bair aWflHr WAVY TO &ACOO nevdawly EDITORIAL C0R&5SP0SDESCE- Kimball Hones, Atlanta, December 4,1879. The writer was not a little surprised noon entering the train of the H. & W. R. R, at Viasville, yesterday, to fiad passenger and emokin; oir jammed full of travelers, nearly every oae of whom were perfect strangers to him. Where did they come from andwhither were they going was a pertinent question, which no one seemed able to answer. Wo had thought at this period of tho year the TIDE OF TBiVEL set fn the Junction of Florida, with its golden orangs groves and blushing flow ers, and not towards the frigid North. But business takes peoplo (drummers in cluded) everywhere, and, doubtless, the revival of all branches of industry in tbe country has turned liase and put in mo tion, to and fro, thousands of capitalists and speculators bound upon ovary possi ble errand. Finding it impossible to "Iooate,” thanks to the unvarying courtesy of Con ductor Reneau, the writer was allowed to obtrude within the forbidden portals of a luxurious palace sleeping car, which, a: it was daytime, was perfectly empty Heie he was “monarch of all he sur veyed,” and could cogitate, sleep at will, read, and make occasional incursions or excursions into the other coaches, not LIKE A ROARING LION, seeking whom he might devour, but faithful jonrnalist industriously hunting up nows items fo; his readers. Bu*- our efforts in tne tatter aireotion were almost barren of results. Perhaps, however, au indignant oonple, ere this, made one oat of twain, will enter a tremendous dis cl-timer to the latter remark. Bat we did not intend to leave them ont in the cold. Among oar fellow passengers was the rxceilent Mr. Hornadsy, pastor of the Brunswick Methodist church, who was en route lo Forsyth to marry a young pair whom, as there are so many "SLIPS TWIST CUP AND HP, shall be nameless nntil their union has bean officially announced. Mr. H. says Brunswick is thriving and very hopeful of the future. She has direot communi cation now with Nassau, trade is brisk, and the people are jubilant over tho prospect of the extension to Atlanta,{and, in due time, to the far Noithwe3t,of their railroad. It was certainly a most gra tuitous and disrespectful remark of onr esteemed contemporary, the Constitution, that the road which has dono so much to bnild np Bracswick and DEVELOP SOUTHERN GEORGIA began nowhere," that is at Maoon,and "ends nowhere," which means Broneivick. That was emphatically a blow "below the belt" to all ths Banth oonntry not inclnd ed within tbe city limits of Atlanta, or the radins of her influence. But it is to be hoped that this unknown land, whioh is thns summarily consigned “to the tomb the capulels," will survive the attack made npon it by tho "organ of the Capi tal.” And.en passant, it is impossible to understand upon wbal ground tho Ccnifi- tulion, in its so-called issue of to-day, predicates the opinion that there will be NO LEASE IN JANUARY of the M. & B. B. R, no extension to At lanta, and only a tig law suit with whioh the State will be lsft to grapple. Per contra, the Governor apprehends no farther action on the part of Mr. Stanton as his movements are blocked by tbe fact that the State cannot be sued, and is de termined that tbe leaso shell be off acted at tbe presoribed timo nnder the preoise terms of the law. There are other par ties who will be in the field probably on that eventful day—one from Georgia, another from abroad- A lively time, therefore, may reasonably be expected when the bidding begins. It ia as certain then aa any other hu man event that the LEASE WILL BE EFFECTED t the appointed time, and tbo required extension made according to the terms of tbe late law. docketed, is a trial before the SupfemS Court of tho United States, on the con stitutionality of the set of the Legisla ture of Georgia, prohibiting certain classes of its citizens from bidding at all upon the lease. This, some of the disappointed stockholders of the Central Railroad, or ths oompany itself, may at tempt. The legal fraternity are divided as to the possibility of making ont such a ease. We cannot assert, however, save upon rumor, that any effort of the kind is in tended to be made. Suffice it to say, the road will certainly be leased to the high est biddor who comes within tho scope of tho law, and the proposed extension will follow of necessity, or tho lease be for feited. We have upon the best authority, that the act of the Governor, in adjourn ing tbe lease to another day, hasbeon en dorsed by some of the first legal minds of the State, but sincerely regret that the matter had not been differently settled in the firBt instance. No one, however, has been hurt in the premises, and it is ex pected that the INCREASED COMPETITION whioh will be developed on tbe next lease day, when all the requirements of the act have been complied with, will re dound more thnn ever to the interests of the tax payers of the State. Jn;t here, we wouldi again indulge the hope that tbo capitalists of Macon and Brunswick may come to the front, and lease the road themselves. Certainly no other parties havo each vital interests involved in the result. HEADED OFF. We made one abortive attempt to draw ont a prim and natty looking Yankee, who asked if the writer lived in Georgia, bat conld get no response on the "Grant boom,” Hayes’ message, whether wa were to have a hard winter, the probabilities of rain, or anything else. So the writer retired in good order, and ere long reach ed tbe GATS CITY IN EAFETY. Here he was taken la charge by a "Kimball” porter, and warmly greeted and comfortably cared for by tbe genial managers of this magnificent establish ment. We found evatytblng in apple pie or der about their celebrated hotel and ta ble, servants and rooms all that the most exacting gueBt conld demand. Maj. W. H. Soldon, one of the genial proprietors, is always at his post, and spares no psina for the comfoit of his patrons. In the office ho has the able assistance of Mr. Ed. Calloway, whose name is a house hold word to every traveller in Georgia, aud hia sot less agreeable co-adjutors, Meesrs. W. D. Wiley and E. D. Chris tian. The Kimball is fairly booming, and tbo Markham too seems to be enjoy ing a fair ran of custom. We did not see Mr. Huff, (perhaps he was in transitu between hia two homes) but found his pleasant partner and ear old friend Mil ler ready and willing to do the honors of the house. Atlanta oertalnly is able properly to support two first class hotels, end we wish them both euooess. MUNICIPAL ELECTION YE3TSRDAY was something new to a Macon man. Friends of the respective candidates would sound the merits of their favorites at the polls in regular auction style, and tickets were proffered and went olroling round on all sides. One little urohln had basketful!, which he was orying in resl newsboy fashion. Colored and white all seemed to vote without let or hindrance, and wo saw no fighting or bnlldczing of any kind. At one time, owing to the multiplicity of white aspirants, there was imminent danger that TWO OUWB8 would be injected into the city oonncil. But the alarm was sounded promptly, some of the candidates "oatne down," runners through the city announced the impending result, and the Anglo-Saxons and whirs “furriners,” turned out at the last moment in sufficient strength to de feat the sabli contestant?, who, by the way, are eaid to bs very olever and res pectable colored "gemmen.” A MUDDY BUT FLOURISHING erry.'. Last evening the thiok clouds mar shalled their murky hosts and organized a torrent of rain which descended piti lessly for many honra. The streets were deluged, and the wayfarer out of doers, trod nnole deep in water even upon aims of the pavements. If be missed a cross ing and got swamped in the highway, hia fate wa3 deplorable indeed. The loss of a Bhoaor boot, aud a plentiful be-spatter ing of red clay was the least to bs ex pacted. But despit it3 mud, and chilly, changeable chaste, ATLANTA IS GOING AHEAD constantly with majcBtio strides, and so great is the faith of ber people in the future of their oily, that albeit many scores of houses and stores bear on their doors the omicon3 words "to let," still such far-seeing end sagacious men as ex-Governor Brown keep piling np brick and mortar into artistio and elegant architeotaral shapes, oonfidant that they will "be wanted” in due time. It is a fact, which nous will dispute, that in this bustling, wide-a-wake oity, profits and salaries of every kind, from the Governor of the State and judges of ths Supreme Court to the lowest errand boy or counter jumper, are exceptionally low, and the puzzle is how do the people make both endB meet. Still they manage to live, though one store will sometimes have throe occupants in a single year. But no sooner does one break, or clear ont, than another, attraoted by the pres tige and vim of the Gate City, and tbe ETERNAL BLOWING of the inhabitants moves in, if but to spare tbs fate of his predeopnoor. Tbe writer asked a merchant what was the caused of all.tfae hurry and bnstle be saw about him? "Why,” he replied, "the majority of the people you see thus frantically running around, are in quest of the same half dollar, which will be needed to get them a dinner." Georgia has just cause to be proud of thi3 noble and growing olty, though if her peopte were less aggressive to mid dle and lower Georgia, they would be more popular. Thus far of our BRETHBEN CF THE PRESS, we have encountered Mr. Clarke of the Post, Mr. Howell of the Constitution, Mr. S. T.

It was sad to eee the vacant editorial panolnm of tho late piquant, able, and spirited Dis pitch. But such is life. Au revoir. H. H. J. An Eioquentsuence. The Philadelphia Times, of the 2d in- stan i, reports cn interview of itseditcr- in-ohief, Mr. McClure, with Senator Gordon, in Washington, and speaks in warm commendation, editorially, of the views expressed by tho Senator. In that interview, Gen. Gordon very earnestly ad vocated the polloy of eilenoe in respect to the bitter sectional altaoks on the South ern States, so frequently n ade In Con- gsres, and states that on this point he is in fall accord with the most noted Dem. ooratio conservative Senators, such ss Lamar,Ransom,,fanes, of Florida, Hamp ton and others. Of the piobable effect of such aosarse, could it be universally adopted by the Democratic Congressmen, he cites the case of the last speech of tbe late Senator Morton—the most bitter and excoriating invective ever delivered—made np of as saults, general and particular, personal and political, in the conrse of which ho attacked in turn States and communities, persons and parties, calling upon them by name to defend themselves, putting personal questions to Senators and using every artifice to provoke responses in tho asms temper. But the Southern Sena tors, apiraeiating hi3 purpose, agreed among themselves to make no answer, and subsequently Morton declared that he bad never been so outdone in hiB life, and that he came out of that affair badly crippled. But whether silence in respoct to theso a h frae7"patrioVro dig- ana manhood, it iB equally to be _ ruveu. vr..v,; nor f»Qod oan ever come of an altercation over alleged facts wmen can never be brought to a specific end decisive test of truth or error. General allegations against the Southern peepv, whiob, in tbe nature of tbe case, are iu- ospable of particular proof or refutation, leave publio opinion unohanged and only inflame popular temper, which i3 the object sought after in the attack. The defendants cannot and do not hope to disarm prejudice or conciliate animos ity in their responses. They simply con ceive them to be a matter of duty to their constituency. But their constituency do not need any light or information on tbe snbject-matter, and know that in every such altercation they are bound to get the worst of it aB to all material and im portant points. The object being to ieep alive and icoreaso the odium of the outside world—the North has its ear aud tho South has .little access to it. The North prints and circulates a thousand copies of the attack to one cf the reply. Materially, therefore, (not intellectually) it is a fight against enormous odd?, whioh ia always a losing fight, independ ent of the melts of the controversy. Tbe more of these controversies pro voked, the greater tho Southern less and ths Northern gain. But it is easy to appreciate the diffi culties in the way of carrying out this policy. It demands great and universal self-control. Tbe impulse of every pa triotic man is to defend his home and people whenever assailed, and with tbe younger, more enthusiastic and less ex perienced this impulse is almost uncon trollable. But, at tbe same time, one spokesman is as good as another in nurs ing a controversy. In point of faoi, the lightest exponent of Southern opinion in such a contest serves Radical purposes bast. What is wanted is haste, heat, in- caution and violence. If the policy cf eilence shall be adopted, it will be a coed sohool for young representatives. "Is is impossible," said Costellar, "to keep si lence in Spanish.” Can young Southern representatives accomplish that feat in the English tongue ? —A movement to present a purse of $250,- COO to General Grant is reported by The Cin cinnati Commercial.

Bl- How a Missionary Obtained Free Board and Lodging- American Wesleyaa.1 An English town missionary, a short time ago. related a remarkable incident. There was alodging house in his distriot, whioh he hEd long desired to enter, but he was deterred from eo dolrg by hiB friend, who feared that his life would thereby be endangered. He became at length bo uneasy tbat he determined to risk all consequences, and try to gain ad mission. So one day he gave a some wbal timid knookost the door, in response to which a coarse voice roared out, "Who’s there?” and at the same moment a vi cious looking woman opened the door and ordered the man of God away. " Let him oome in, and see who he is and what he wants,” growled out the same voice. The missionary walked in, and bowing politely to the rough-looking man whom ha bad just head speak, ■aid: “I have been visiting most of the bouses in this neighborhood to read with and talk to the people about good things. I have passed your dsor as long as I feel I ought, for I wish also to talk with you aud your lodgers.” “Are yon what is called a town mis sionary ?” " I am, sir,” was the reply, "Well, then,” said the fieroe-looklng man. "sit down and hear what I am go ing to aay. I will ask yon a question out of the Bible. If you answer me right you may oall at.this house and pray and read with ua and our lodgers as often ar yon like, but if yon do not answer me right we will tear your clothes off your baok and tumble you neck and heels into the street. Now what do you say to that; for I am a man of my word?” Additional Particulars of the Affair The homicide, in Dublin on Tues day last, has caused no little exoitemext in that usually quiet little place, and on aoconut of the relationship of the gen* tleman who was killed to residents of this city, considerable interest is taken in the affair in Macon. We have been enabled to get additional particulars of the affair. For many years a feud has existed between Mr. A. E. Corbett and Mr. J. F. Moore. This feeling has[been aggravated from time by various circumstanee?. Ou Monday last.Mr. Carroll Yopp, a friend of Mr. Corbett, had a difficulty with the msrehsl of Dublio, who is a friend of Mr. Mcore. In this difficulty Mr. Yopp got the beet of the marshal. Ou Tuesday last Mr. Moore was in the bar-room of Mr. Howard when Mr. Corbett entered and took a drink aud tbe difficulty imme diately ensued. After the killing en in quest was held and several witnesses examined. Their testimony, however, differed considerably as to the circumstanoes of the killing. Some of the witnesses tea tified that Moore was the aggressor, aud soou as Corbett entered he brushed heavily against him twiae. Corbett then turned to him and asked him what ho meant, at the same time drawing his pis ol and slapping Moore’s face. Moore then remonstrated with Corbett, and said thnt he was taking sn undue advantage of him, staling that ho was unarmed. Corbett asked him if he wanted a fair fight, and laid bis pistol aside. A hand to hand eneonnter ensued, and Moore either threw his antagonist to the floor or over some boxes and barrels in the store, drew his pistol and commenc ed shooting, planting one bullet in bis heart and another ia hi3 brain. Mr- Corbett died in a few seconds: Other witnesses testify that Mr. Moore did not push against Mr. Coibett, but that Mr. Corbett commenced to slap Moore without direct provocation. _Thejury,, after weighing lire testimo- Moore killed Corbett. The plea of self defense will bs set up in the case. Both the putties stood well in the place, and the affair is much deplored.
