IP?* (§*ac$m imfe Jjjimral ^ M«*s®ngeir» TheFinancial Questions, Enforced by tlie Administration on Con gress, are backed by a powerful memorial from New York; and there is little doubt that a strong effort will be made to secure “appropriate legislation.” On the otlior hand, among Congressmen of all parties there is naturally a strong inclination to “dodge the issue,” in face of the approach ing general elections. Congress met with a disposition not to meddle with the fi nances; but was confronted at the door with appeals from the administration for very important legislation. The three officers in charge of the finances—(the Comptroller of the Currency, the Secre tary of tire Treasury and the President)— all demanded important changes. Says the Xew York Herald: Comptroller Knox, from a modest sense of his subordinate position, merely recom mends that the national banks be required to keep all their reserves in coin as a mode of approaching the ultimate result. Secretary Sherman, whose position is more responsible and his authority great er, recommends the divesting of the greenbacks of their legal tender qual ity and the reduction of their amount from three hundred and forty-six millions to three hundred millions. The President goes still further, and recommends the retirement of the legal tender notes as a debt wliich tlie _ govern ment is bound to pay, and which it lias no constitutional authority to keep in circu lation in that form. Both in his message and in his more recent private letter the President is emphatic on the constitu tional point. He declared in his message: “It is my firm conviction that the issue of legal tender paper money based wholly upon the authority and credit of the gov ernment, except in extreme emergency, is without warrant in the constitution.” He says even more pointedly ia his letter, IThe only constitutional legal tender is gold and silver.” It is needless to say that these proposi tions are of vast importance. The retire ment of the greenbacks is not in itself de sirable. It is the most convenient and .safe of all our currency, whether metallic or paper. The qualms over the constitu tional question are, we fear, not very sin cere, however distressing. The greenback debt is the only debt the country floats without expense, and even at profit, and if we have been able to survive that alleged breach of the constitution fifteen years, let us hope a few years more will not prove fatal. Let tills currency, as it wears out in the service, be substituted by Treasury notes redeemable on demand in specie, and we believe the whole question will be dis posed of without raising a riffle on the surface of the financial tide; while the plan of a forcible withdrawal of three hundred and fifty millions of our best currency will shock the country. The secret of the movement may be looked for in the ambition of the specula tive classes to substitute a currency of their own for that of the government. It is an ambition as reasonable and natural as money making. All men see that pa per must constitute the great bulk of our circulation, for the metals are too cum bersome. Who is to furnish that paper? The government or local banks ? If the ratter, all history warns us to expect a general explosion once in every’ ten to twenty years. All experience dating back twenty years warns us to look for a differ ent currency in every State and almost every town in every State. In great financial centres, such as Xew York, every purchaser, unless watchful, will receive in way of change, bills which will not be received next door except at a discount. A weekly shave in country bank bills along back from ’44 to ’60, was part of trade.' A man attempting to trav el from Macon to Xew York on currency could not sometimes pay for his breakfast at Branchville. Pay for a bill of ex change or submit to a shave every few miles, was the alternative. Xow we have a paper currency, convenient and of uni form value, which is equally current every part of the country. With the substitution of local bank pa. per in case its redeemability is maintained, the tax imposed on the people in the way of shaving and exchanging will be enor mous ; and when they begin to break, they all or nearly all go together. There was one general suspension in 1830, an other in 1857, and another in 1861, with various others, not general, intervening. The record of the local banks is one of wreck and ruin and incalculable loss. -Senator Bayard, for whom we entertain the profoundest respect, in his speech in Macon, in 1877, suggested, as a possible substitute for the greenback currency the obligations of local banks based on real estate, of which we have so much in Georgia lying out of doors. Is there any real estate bank now alive in the world? And yet, how many hundred have been started! Xow, the national bank system, though Standing on pretty good legs of its own, really gets its credit from the _ greeebacks, If it loses them and is turned over to keep company with local banks, it will be In fected with the string halt. All this hulliballoo over the only good paper currency we have ever had, is raised in the sacred name of “honest money” and gold doings; but is, in fact, a rotten pumpkin—a scheme to reap the interest on about a thousand millions of floating local bank paper, besides what can be made in sbaves and exchanges. If any body doubts that it is a great question, let him put on his thinking cap. It will •“make Rome howl” before it is settled, and howl afterwards and often; for we believe a mushroom growth of local banks will, in all probability, spring up in a few years, to consume the earnings of labor. What the country really needs is a ■“uniform currency.” It ought to main tain a large currency of silver for small change, and in addition thereto a paper currency under such safeguards as will secure its circulation and convertibility throughout the Union. We don't think there should be a representative of money afloat except under the supervision and responsibility of the Federal Government. A prudent man is like a pin, his head prevents him from going too far. To pre vent a cough from going too far, we should say: Use Dr. Bull’s Cough Syrup. —London Times states: “It is a fact that Lord Beaconsfield has three times tendered his resignation to the Queen within the last six months, and that her Majesty has each time begged him to re consider hig request to be relieved of his •duties.” —The late Mrs. Catharine Hogarth Dickens was in her youth a pretty, bright- looking young woman. In hCr later years she is described by an American acquain tance as a comfortable-looking matron of the English middle class, amiable but commonplace in conversation. Many a babe is unknowingly hurried ■out of the world by the powerful opiates -so frequently given to them. Mothers, «se Dr. Bull’s Baby Syrup, the safest, cheapest and best baby medicine in the world. BY TELEGRAPH to other persons than manufacturers with- - out tax. The committee instructed its London-, December 11.—A dispatch to report the bill to the House, from Teheran reports that the Tellkes The House Committee on Education - - - - - | and Labor listened to-day to the atgu- ; ments by Professor Paynter, of Fish Uni versity, Xashville, and Dr. Hawey, of Howard University, Washington, in advo cacy of Mr. Goode's bill to aid in the Edu cation of the colored people, by appropria ting the unclaimed bounties and pay of the colored soldiers. Xo final action will probably be taken on the bill until after the holiday recess. John W. Brooks has been appointed Internal Revenue Storekeeper and Gau ger for the Second District of Geoigia. Fredericksburg, Va., December 11. The leading Democratic citizens of Richmond county, Virginia, headed by Charles Pitts, their recently elected mem ber of the Legislature, have just petition ed Judge Jones to include in the jury lists such of the colored citizens of Jthe county as the court shall think well qualified to serve as jurors. They say the step is both proper and important, as they believe this class of our fellow citizens is entitled to such representation. Judge Jones has granted the order prayed for. Petersburg, Va., December 11.—A large number of colored emigrants from Goldsboro, North Carolina, have passed through here during the past few days en route to Indiana. A noticeable feature of the emigration is the huge number of women with infants in their arms. They go without a leader, and appear in good spirits. Columbia, S. C., December 11.—The General Assembly to-day elected Associ ate Justice Henry Mclver, as Chief Jus tice of the Supreme Court, to succeed Judge Willard, whose term expires July next, and General McGowan, to be Asso ciate Justice, vice Judge Haskell, resigned.

London, December 11.—A dispatch from Rome to the Reuter’s Telegraph Company says the last dispatches sent to the Papal Nuncio at Brussels, instruct him to consider the difference between the Vatican and the Belgium Govern ment as terminated, if the Belgium Cabi net will so regard it. If the Cabinet does not agree to this proposition the Papal Nuncio is instructed to maintain the re serve. Panama, November 29.—Contrary to general expectation the last steamer brought no intelligence of importance from the South. Xo battle had taken place between the Allies and the Chilians. The latter, instead of following the Al lies and giving them battle at Pera Grande or Porso del Monte, appear to have gone into camp at Aqua Santa, about forty miles north of the Peruvian posi- ion, where they are entrenching thein- telves. Madrid, December 11.—The newly appointed Spanish ministers took their seats in the Chamber of Deputies yester day. Premier Canovas del Castellar, in announcing the formation of a Cabinet, said the recent crisis was due to the form in which the bill for economic reforms in Cuba was drawn up-—that the present gevemment, equally with their predecess ors, would support the bill for the aboli tion of slavery in Cuba, and would pre sent fresh proposals for compromise be tween the interests of Spain and Cuba, on the equal duty of all Spaniards to support tlieir share of the public burden. That the minority would decide the questions at issue impartially, and that they would shortly submit their proposals with refer ence to Cuba. At the conclusion of the Premier’s re marks an interpellation was brought for ward by a minority of the constitutional party, asking for further information of the causes of the recent crisis. The Pre mier stated that he was obliged to go to the Senate, but that he would return im mediately and reply to the interpellation. The Constitutional Deputies strongly pro tested against this course and considerable excitement ensued, in the midst of which the President of the Chamber of Deputies put on his hat, and declared the sitting closed. There was great excitement. Washington, December 11.—At a meeting of the National Board of Trade to-day a resolution was adopted favoring national legislation upon the subject of interstate commerce by railroads. Such legislation the Board holds should provide for the appointment of a commission or tribunal to secure uniformity and pub licity of railroad accounts, contracts and transactions, to enforce uniformity of rates and classifications under like circumstan ces; differ to secure publicity of rates and to prevent sudden and arbitrary changes, extortionate charges and personal and local favoritism.

A Berlin dispatch says a St. Petersburg letter states that the same day the Czar arrived at St. Petersburg, the revolution ary committee issued a most violent proc lamation, which is being distributed daily, and in which they avow that the late at tempt on the Czar’s life was made by their order, and, though the attempt fail ed, they are not disheartened, but ready to try again. London, December 11.—The weather continues severe throughout the kingdom. Paris, December 11.—The Seine has not been completely frozen over since 1881. Vienna, December 11.— Continuous frosts and snow such as has not been ex- experienced here since 1838.

He stated that owing to the fact that the Utes would be in Washington during the recess it was important tliat the reso lution be passed. Mr. Cockrell objected to its present consideration. If there were any provis ions in it allowing the removal of the In dians to the Indian Territory, he gave notice that there would be bitter opposi tion to it. Mr. Allison explained that the commit tee’s amendment to the resolution ex pressly excluded such a possibility, but Mr. Cockrell declined to withdraw his objection and the resolution went over. On motion of Mr. Bayard: Resolved, That when the Senate adjourn to-day, it will be to meet on Monday next. Denver, Col., December 11.—A spe cial from El Paso states that the Apaches, under Chief “Ju,” numbering one hun dred, engaged in a fight with the Mexi cans on the Chihauhau on the 5th instant. “Ju”lost eighty killed and w r ounded, Boston, December 11.—Dr. Enoch Cobb Wines, whose life has been devoted to reforms in prisons, died at Cambridge yesterday.

Washington, Dgcember 11.—In the Senate Mr. Plumbe introduced a bill to amend the revised statutes relating to taxes upon banks and bankers. It pro vides that no association shall be liable to tax imposed by section 5254 of the revised statutes upon any sum under the name of deposits which may be deposited with any other association, bank or banker, and which is subject to taxation in such asso ciation. The bill also proposes to exempt from taxation deposits in provident asso ciations, saving banks and saving fund in stitutions, except in cases where a deposit to the credit of one person, firm or corpo ration exceeds $20,000. In such cases the excess above that amount is to be liable to tax. On motion of Mr. Maxley the Senate then took up and passed the bill appropri ating $200,000 for the erection of such posts on or near the Rio Grande frontier as the Secretary of War may deem neces sary for the adequate protection thereof. Mr. Cockerell withdrew his objection to the consideration of the joint resolution for the removal of the Utes from Colorado, and offered an amendment that the Indi ans be removed to some suitable place not in the Indian Territory. The amend ment was agreed to, and the resolution, as reported and thus amended, passed. On motion of Mr. Butler, the Senate took up and passed the joint resolution authorizing the Secretary of War to lease the arsenal property in Charleston, South Carolina, to the trustees of the Holy Com munion Church Institute, for its use and accommodation.

The sub committee of the House Com mittee on Agriculture reported favorably ces. J. J. Thomas, trustee, and Gertrude Thomas, vs. Jones and Norrise. Com plaint, from Richmond. Warner, C. J. It appears from the record in this case tliat to April term 1876, of Richmond Superior Court, Jones & "Norriss commenced their action at law against J. J. Thomas and J. J. Clanton, trustees of Gertrude Thomas, wife of said J. J., and against said Gertrude Thomas; to recover out of the trust estate the sunr of nine hundred and ninety-two and 36- 100 dollars, a bill of particulars annexed, showing the provisions furnished from June 20,1874, to December 2, 1874, with names of twelve laborers employed. Non est inventus, was returned as to Clanton, but J. J. Thomas, trustee, and Gertrude Thomas, acknowledged service March 2, 1876. The trust was created under deed from Turner Clanton, dated January 6, 1854, and recorded April 4,1854. The terms of the trust are as follows: THE SUPREME COURT. I On November 14, 1878, Judge Pottle presiding, the following special jurors Decisions Rendered December 9, 1 1S rty ' six for 560011(1 day 1879^-Hon. Hiram Warner, Chief | court adjourned to November 15,1878. Justice, Hon. James- Jackson and November, met and adjourned to Ncrvem- logan E. Bleckley Associate Justi- her 16,1878. . November 16, met and adjourned, no time being named, but order taken after wards, fixed the day to December Z, 1878. December 2, Court met pursuant to ad journment, Judge Gibson presiding. Adjourned to December 17, 1878, and daily to December 21, and then until 13th January, 1878. On 20th December, jurors were drawn for the court to meet January 13, 1879. Court met January 13, 1879, Judge Knead presiding, and continued daily in session until rule nisi granted January 22, 1878. It is admitted that no order appears in the minutes calling any adjourned or special term of the court. Also that about 20th December a meet ing of the bar was held in the court room, at which the presiding judge and judge elect were present, when;it was, after the hearing of the views of Judge Snead* about the court to meet in January, Resolved, That no cases would be tried at the Januaiy session of the court, except by consent when that term met. The “For the sole and separate use of the said judge refused, in view of this action of the Gertrude, during her natural life, and tliat the same shall not be liable for the debts, contracts or liabilities of the said Jefferson, or any after taken husband, and that upon the death of said Gertrude, to vest in her child or children, if any she have, share and share alike, the issue of a bar, to-allow a motion to be made to dis miss a plea, parties not consenting. At the time of the passage of the order of the judge, correcting the minutes so as to fix a day of adjournment, Judge Snead ruled that he had not construed the action of the bar to prohibit the filing of amotion deceased child to take in the place and ! for new trial, or the correction of the stead of its deceased parent. But if the said Gertrude leave no child or children, or the descendants of a child in life at the time of her death, as aforesaid, then the same shall return to and vest in the ■aid Turner Clanton, if in life, and if not j in life, then to the heirs at law of the said Turner Clanton.” All the property set forth in''plaintiff’s declaration [was held under said trust. Portion was afterwards conveyed February 1, 1S6S, from J. J. Thomas, individually, and portion from distribution of Turner Clanton’s estate, March 30,1869. The declaration sets out as follows; “That the children interested in the re mainder and now in life are Turner C. Thomas, Mary Bell Thomas, Jefferson J. Thomas, Cora Lou Thomas, Julian C. Thomas and Katherine Thomas.” That the trust estate became and is now liable for these provisions, money and supplies furnished the said trustees and cestui que trust, to feed and clothe the la borers engaged in cultivating the land, raising the crops tliercsn, and in keeping the premises in repair. When the debt became due the said J. Jefferson Thomas, as one of the trustees, executed his prom-- issory note dated May 4, 1876, and due December 1, thereafter, for the sum of eleven hundred and twenty-four 35-100 dollars, and delivered the same to. J. B. Norriss, one of your petitioners, which note was not paid at maturity. That the said J. Jefferson Thomas is entirely insolvent, and cannot be held li able on said note as trustee, which is here by tendered back to him. J. J. Thomas as trustee, and Gertrude Thomas, separately, plead the general is sue which pleas were sworn to October 20 and 23,1S77; they being represented by T. Oakmau, Esq. After this a portion of the trust proper ty was placed in the bauds of defendants attorney, Thaddeus Oakman, and he or dered by J. I. Thomas, trustee, in writing, filed with the record, to pay over the moneys against the trust estate, and pay ments were made as set out in the record and allowed at the judgment. The case was heard and verdict ren dered November 6,1S7S, as fbllows: “We, the jury, find for plaintifls against the trust esate set out in the. petition, the sum of nine hundred and fifty-two 78-100 dollars, with interest and costs of suit, to he enforced by execution against the prop erty and without personal liability of the trustee, as the trust estate is liable for its payment.” Judgement was entered November 0, 1878, against the property, and execution stayed by Judge E. H. Pottle, of the Northern circuit, when he entered the judgement on the verdict for thirty days. On January 22,1879, motion for a new trial was filed, and supersedeas granted by Judge Claiborne Snead of Augusta circuit, and rule nisi made, returnable January 25,1879. The grounds of motion were— 1. Because said verdict is contrary to law. 2. Because said verdiet is contrary to evidence, and without sufficient evidence to support it. 3. Because the court overruled a mo tion of defendants to dismiss said case, on the grounds tliat the petition on its face did not make said trust estate liable in said action. 4. Because the court held tliat the facts alleged rendered said trust estate liable in said action. 5. Because the court struck defendant’s plea of general issue, and held defendant must plead specially. Cause was shown by Jones & Norris as follows: 1. Rule nisi is void, having been issued by his honor Judge Snead, who is related within the fourth degree of affinity to Gertrude Thomas, one of the defendants, and lias, after one stay of exe cution has expired, been renewed without cause of the establishment of a department of i 2. Because the grounds of -the motion commerce as a branch of the General ’ are not approved by the Hon. E. H. Pot- govemment under a minister or secre- tie, who presided in the case, and no rea- tary who shall be a member of the cabi- son given for his not doing so. net. A resolution was also adopted de- * 3. Because no brief of testimony has claring that the general government should • been approved by the said judge, or any assert and define its jurisdiction over nav-: other judge, or consented to by the plain- igable waters of the country, its lakes, tills prior to or at the filing of said mo- rivers, hays and harbors. After the ap- “ pointment of various special committees the Board adjourned until to-morrow. Augusta, Maine, December II.—The Maine Standard, Democrat, organ of the State government, announces to-day in a semi-official tone, that the returns from Portland, Lewiston, Lace, Augusta, Hal- lowel, Bath and Rockland counties for Representatives, all have some technical defect, and tliat the Governor and council will reject them all. These counties elected fifteen Republican Representa tives. The defect alleged in most cases is that the returns were signed by three al dermen instead of four. Halifax, N. S., December 11.—A ter rible explosion of dynamite occurred to day at the Tangeer gold mining district, sixty miles from Halifax on the eastern coast, by which the shaft house of the mine was blown to pieces, one man in stantly killed, two fatally and one seri ously injured. Los Pinos Agency, December 11.— Chief Ouray came to the Agency yester day with one of the Indians called for by the commission, and turned him over to Gen. Hatch, remarking that the others would be surrendered as soon as captured. The work of the commission will end this week. It will recommend that the White River Agency be abolished, and the Utes of that Agency be distributed between Los Pinos and the Southern Agency; that loss of property occasioned by the outbreak be paid for out of the Ute fund ou deposit at Washington, and that a portion of the reservation formerly occu pied by the White River Utes be ceded to the government. Quite Right.—Secretary Sherman says: “The editors who purchased and printed the stolen documents (the Presi dent’s message) are as guilty of stealing as the actual thieves.” True; but there have been so many precedents of the same sort among the Cabinet and high Washington officials, that it is not sur prising that their example would be imi tated. We saw it suggested that the President, when he missed the volumi nous document, ought to have boiled down its contents and written another message. Had he done so, the new paper, if not more satisfactory, would at least of the revised statutes as prohibits fanners i former. and planters from selling leaf tobacco at! - , ..'TTJ retail directly to consumers without pay- ’ The Senate yesterday voted to adjourn ing a special tax, and allowing them to to Monday next. tion. 4. Because the brief of evidence filed is incorrect in the following particulars: “It was admitted by defendants’ attorney that the articles sued for had been deliv ered to the trustees and used for the main tenance and support of the laborers em ployed in cultivating the trust estate and property in Richmond and Columbia comities, set out in tire petition for the use and benefit of the trust estate, the income of which estate was received by him ai trustee, the names of the laborers appear ing in tlio bill of particulars. That after the suit was brought, and plea of general issue filed, a part of the trust property was placed in the hand of Thaddeus Oak- man, defendants’ attorney, to pay this debt as one due by the trust estate, and that the amount of the payments by him were credited on the judgment if render ed in favor of the plaintifls, he (Oakman) not then having the original receipts pres ent in the court. Also, that all the bene ficiaries of the trust were correctly set out in the petition.” 4. Because the session of the court at which the motion is now made is specially for ariminal cases, under the act authoriz ing such sessions, and the motion for new trial is therefore not filed in time nor within sixty days from the rendition of the judgment which stayed execution thirty days. 6. Because the motion failed to set out the events of the trial, which are as fol lows : “Defendant demurred to the decla ration, which demurrer was overruled. Plaintifls then put in evidence the deeds, will, and so forth, creating the trust as set out in the petition, with the admissions set out in the fourth objection in addition to the brief filed, when defendant moved for a non-suit.” ’Upon the discussion of this motion the court asked what plea wa3 filed, to which a reply was given the general issue only; the judge then re marked it was insufficient, and defendant should plead specially. Plaintifls’ attor ney then stated that under the evidence before the court it was solely a matter or question of law, applicable to the facts which were not in controversy, and pro posed that a verdict should be taken in accordance with the ruling of the court as to the liability of the trust estate created for maintaining the laborers thereon. The proposition was consented to, and after argument the court held the trust es tate liable, and a verdict was taken ac cordingly without further objection from defendants’ attorney. The minutes of Richmond Superior Court show: That the regular October term, 1878, court ofTts own minutes. After the filing of motion, granting of rule, and. filing of return thereto, an order was passed as follows : “It appearing that this court was ad journed on the 16th of November last un til the-2d day of December thereafter, but that entering the same on minutes the clerk tailed to state the term to which the court adjourned. “It is ordered, that tlie clerk amend the minutes-by entering thereon the day to which, the court adjourned, and that this order be. placed on the minutes. Claiborne Snead, Judge Superior Court. After the return of the rule an order was taken as follows: Parties by their council in the above stated case consent ing, it is ordered, that said motion fornew trial be submitted to the Hon. E. H. Pot tle, Judge of the Northern Circuit, who presided in said case, to be heard aud de termined in vacation, with liberty to ei ther party to except as in term time. No right is intended to be waived hereby by either party, except the question of juris* diction in the granting of the rule nisi by Judge Snead, but not the tune and term at which the action was had. The- papers were then submitted to Judge Pottle, who overruled the motion February 22,1879. On the brief of evidence and motioft for new trial lie certified as follows: I certify tliat the brief of evidence is correct, except what is contained in the (4) fourth ground of plaintifls, in answer to the rule in this case should be made part of the brief, such was the testimony allowed on tlie trial. E. H. Pottle, Judge Superior Court, N. C. I also certify tliat the grounds of the motion is correctly stated except tliat the facts set forth by the plaintifls? council in his (6) sixth ground of answer to their rule is a true version of the history of said case during the progress of the trial, and they are adopted by me. E. H. Pottle, Judge Superior Court, N. C. February 22, 1879. The defendants’ brief of evidence, pre viously filed, admitted tlie trust as set out in the declaration, that the property was held thereunder, the giving of the promis sory note set out to close the account, that J. J. Thomas purchased the articles in bill of particulars, and gave the note as trustee, and was insolvent. The assignment of error in bill of ex ceptions is refusal to grant new trial on the grounds set forth in the said motion. The grounds insisted on by the plain tiff by the way of objection to the defen dant’s motion for a new trial being heard and considered by the court as hereinbe fore set forth, were not well taken. In view of the evidence in the record the ver dict was right, but from the evidence the court should have entered a judgment on tlie verdict for the sale of the life estate only of Mrs. Thomas in the trust property and not the entire corpus of the property in which the remainder men were inter ested. We, therefore, affirm the finding of the jury aud the overruling of fhe mo tion for a new trial, and direct that the judgment of the court thereon be modi fied so as to order a sale of the life estate only of Mrs. Thomas in the trust prop erty, or so much thereof as may be neces sary to pay tlie plaintiff's demand against it. Let the judgment of the court below be affirmed, with directions as heroin in dicated. J. C. Black, for plaintiff in error. F. H. Miller, for defendant. Wesley’s Chapel, in City Road, Lon don, which was nearly destroyed by fire last Sunday, is thus uoticed in a Herald, London, special of the 8th: The old cliapel thus nearly destroyed deserves more than a passing notice, con nected as it is so intimately with the his tory of the Methodist Church in London. “For five and thirty years,” says the Rev. L. Tyermann, “Wesley and his friends had worshiped in ‘the old Foundry’ (in Windmill street.) Here hundreds, per haps thousands, had been converted; but as the building was only held on lease, they were now in danger of losing it.” On October, 15, 1775, Wesley wrote to his brother: “On Friday I hope to be in Lon don, and to talk with the committee about building a new foundry.” Five months afterward the great reformer started the first subscription, and* at three meetings raised upward of $5,000. In the following November the building plans were agreed upon, and in April, 1777, Wesley laid the foundation stone, and on Sunday, Novem ber, 1778, he opened the new chapel by preaching in the morning on part of Solo mon’s prayer at the dedication of the tem ple. He wrote at the time, “It is perfect ly neat, but not fine, and contains far more people than the Foundry.” As to the Quinine Duty. Tho Baltimore Sun of Tuesday says free quinino means cheap quinine. The act of Congress making quinine free of duty has worked like a charm. The number of prophets of evil were many, but the predictions which have come, true are yet to be enumerated. Wien the duty repealing clause was pass ed, on July 1, quinine went up ten cents per ounce, because it was said that the two Philadelphia houses which have been getting rich on this tax for the promotion of malarial fever meant to go out of the business at once and incontinently. However, the American manufacturers seems to have changed their minds after the bill became a law. Foreign manu facturers began to increase their produc tions, and to increase their shipments to this side also. The importations of quinine and sul phate of quinine, from April to July, were $25,600; from July to October, after the duty was taken off, tho imports rose to • $2=30,800, while during the same period, in spite of the fact that this period cor- ered the malarious seison, the price Of quinine fell to $2.75 per ounce for Ameri can and to $2.55 for French. This disposes at last of this blood tax, for it shows that free quinine will not drive American manufacturers out of the market, but that it has had the effect al ready to stimulate their production, and that of their foreign competitors, so much as to enable our sick people to get quinine at prices which are ninety-five cents cheap er per ounce than those which ruled while tho monopoly was still sustained. This means that the American people, who are forced to consume a good deal of this in valuable anti-periodic, are already able to get it about 27 per cent, cheaper than for merly, in consequence of the remission of this tax, which yielded scarcely a penny in the shape of revenue to the country, while it enormously enriched two manu facturing drug houses in Philadelphia. floath Georgia CnAhmc. 6ECOND DAY.

The Ribbon, however, got in an Eye Opener on the third round, and the Julep went down, whereupon “Tom and Jerry,” his backers, fell upon each others, neck and wept. How different is the tame politeness of the present day compared with the old time, stately courtesy of the primitive Georgian. At an entertainment of the present day, the lady, when invited to leave her refreshments for the dance, re ponds, “with pleasure sir;” but formerly she gathered up her skirts and remarked, “ Yes, Sal, hold my tater while I take a trot with tills here Buck.” That was all a mistake about the Grant boom in Georgia. It was only Mumford, of Talbotton, firing a hundred gun salute over his gifted target. The Constitution is silent over the fate of its warmhearted mustard plaster. We fail to notice the usual bitterness in the paragraphs, however, and presume that it has been applied to their “talented” Gaul. Chronicle and Constitutionalist: A telegram received in this city yesterday announced that the Supreme Court had confirmed the decision of the court below in the case of Elizabeth Cumming et al. vs. the Trustees of the Reid Memorial Church, sustaining tho position taken by the trustees. Mr, Reid, by will, left a site for a Presbyterian Church in Summer ville, aud directed that certain property was to be sold and tbe proceeds used iu building the Church. After the property was sold and the church built with a por tion of the proceeds there was a surplus of eight thousand dollars left. This the heirs claimed should be divided among them as Mr. Reid did not intend any part of the money for the sustentation of the church after it was built. The trustees of the church, on the contrary, held that the testator intended not only to devise means for the construction of the church, but also funds for its sustentation. This interpre tation of the will was sustained ter the Su perior Court as stated abovo, aua also iu tho Supreme Court. Daily Banner : We regret to learn the death of Rev. Mr. Lipscomb, of Virginia, the father of Rev. Dr. A. A. Lipscomb, of our city, which occurred several days since. Mr. Lipscomb, a few years since, spent some time in Athens, and made many warm and attached friends among the Athenians, whose deepest sympathies are now extended their much beloved and esteemed fellow-citizen in his grief. Seriously Hurt.—Southern Enter prise: Mr. C. T. Bibb, son of Mr. W. L. Bibb of this county, who lives on Colonel McIntyre’s place, near tlie Brooks and Florida line, was thrown from his horse two weeks ago last Saturday night and badly .hurt. He was riding alone, and it appears from the best information his father could gather that his horse threw him against a tree about ten o’clock at night, and when some distance from home. Sometime after midnight he reached home, in a scmi-eoiV??i9U9 CO11UI- tion. Aid was summoned and Ids father telegraphed to come. His father reach ed him on Monday night and found 1dm apparently in a dying condition. By the prompt use of remedies and good nursing he revived and was able in a short time to be brought home to his father’s, where he now is. He is much better and bids fair to recovery in a short time, Columbus Times: For several days one of our warehousemen suspicioned that some one who had no business doing so was sampling the cotton bales outside of the warehouse. Yesterday morning he arose from his slumbers bright and early, and went to tho warehouse to see if he could catch the thief. He found a little white hoy and a negro hoy drawing out the samples with the dexterity of experts, and so busily were they engaged in their work that they did not see the gentleman until he caught the white boy around the waist. The gentleman locked the little rascal up in the warehouse, and went in search of the little negro. They were both put in the hands of the police, who put them iu the guard house. We are al ways sorry to hear of the misfortunes even of the waifs, but we draw some consola tion from the fact that there will be two less trumpets for making a noise during the holidays. Savannah Recorder: Jackson Grants- berry, who was arrested by Lieutenant Howard, Sergeant Harvey and Deputy Sheriff Naughton the day on which Cole’s circus was in the city, for the larceny of $1.50, and kept in jail ever since, was brought up for trial in the Superior Court this morning. Hannah Johnson, a col ored woman, testified that she gave Grantsberry $1.50 with which to buy tickets to the circus, and instead of doing so he appropriated the money and got out of her sight. He denied the allegation, and the time of the court, the jury and the officers was taken np on this trilling case which might properly go before the City Court, where speedy justice could bo had . and punish ment'dealt out as expeditiously and effec tively as in the Superior Court. The ex- Grantsbeny is from Augusta, and is 1 supposed to be a pickpocket, yet the coun ty should not suffer to such an extent when the remedy lies in another direc tion. The jury found him guilty, but recom mend him to the extreme mercy of the court. Southerner and Appeal: On last Satur day night Mr. R. E. Hatfield had a nar row escape from serious injury, if not something worse, and has reason to be thankful that his horse was a gentle one. He was driving home from Toombsboro, when, it being perfectly dark, the buggy ran over a log lying beside the road and he was thidlvn out. One of the wheels passed over his right hand, bruising it slightly. Discovering that something was the matter, the horse stopped, leaving Mr. Hatfield wedged in between the hind wheel and the log, where he remained, unable to extricate himself, until Mr. James Jackson, in front of whose house the accident happened, heard his cries and came to his assistance. Rome Tribune: Yesterday evening while this reporter was walking along the Rome railroad a scene occurred which was not laid down in the bills. A passen ger train was comihg, gaining speed at every revolution of the wheels, while some six or eight small children were ahead of it on the track, placing on it peb bles, rocks, mud balls, etc. One little fel low dressed in a frock, and apparently aboutrtour years old, was determined to outdo nis fellows and persisted in putting his mud balls on tbe track until the en gine was within twenty feet. After he had accomplished his feat he deliberately stood in the middle of the tack and did not get off until the engine was almost ready to crush him. Several ladies and gentlemen think that it was the nar rowest escape they ever saw. The little fellow referred to lives, or rather went, into a house at the foot of Elm street. The parents of the child should look after him or some day they may find his crushed little body on the track cold in death. The other children, who also composed the crowd should be looked after, o< irwise the community in that portion of the city will be shocked some day by soijjp so-called and terrible acci dent. Sparta Ishmaelite: Our clever friand of the Sandersville Herald takes hold of the suggestion that there should be a rail road from Sandersville by way of Sparta to Union Point, and gives it his earnest support. We call the attention of our readers to the article, which will be found on the first page of this issue. The road would be of very great benefit to the coun ties of Greene, Hancock and Washington. It would give them direct communication with the great and growing seaport city of Savannah. It would give our fanners the benefit of two markets for their pro duce; and it would give our merchants the advantage of railroad competionin the way of freights. There can be no sort of doubt that tliis road, in addition to the advantages we have mentioned, would greatly enhance the values of real estate in the county; and the same is true of the other counties through which it would run. Savannah Nines: We learn that about dusk on Monday evening, whilst Mr. J. M. Johnson, living at the comer of West Broad and Hull streets, was standing in the doorway of his house, with his wife and children, engaged in conversation, some-miscreant fired a lead en bullet from an air rifle or one of those abominable Alabama slings, which pass ed very close to Mrs. Johnson’s head and struck in the wood work of the door. No one could be seen, and it is supposed that the miscreant who fired the shot was con- cealed on the opposite side of the street or near by. Shortly afterwards another shot wasiu-ed, and struck against a bill board in front of tbe bouse. As theruwas no report it was impossible to tell from what direction the shots were fired* CONSUMPTION CURED*.

His great- grand-fatber brought it to tbis country in 16S0 and used it in the French wars. His son Joseph put a new stock on the piece in 1761, inserting a small silver plate bearing the initials J. H., 1761. Joseph’s son John used it during the revolution. It afterward came into the possession of another son, the late Stafford Henly, of Rehoboth, father of the present owner. He used it fourteen days during the war of 1812, receiving therefor a pension. In 1820 he restocked the gun and put in a new lock; and at his death it came into the hands of the present owner. The barrel is original, is in good order and the gun is still used by members of the faimly as a fowling-piece. —It was decided at a meeting held on Saturday by prominent citizens of Elmira, New York to zealously push the work of erecting a monument to the memory of Adam. A committee of three was appoin ted to correspond with eminent sculptors for the purpose of securing designs, sug gestions and estimate upon the cost of the memorial. There is an impression abroad that the citizens of Elmira are trying to joke at the expense of the late tenant of Paradise, but as several have contributed hard money to the preliminaries of the work their earnestness is apparent. —Prince Napoleon called upon tbeax- Empress Eugenie while she was in Paris, and was kindly received.

Boston’s Danr.—The debt of Boston amounts to $42,359,816, product by > sinking fund of $16,130450 invested in City bonds andr other securities, which reduce the debt to $20,229,666. This debt is stationary or re ceding as the payments of the existing debt keep pace with the new loans for aqueduct and sewer exten sions. The average outlay for such public improvement* ranges from $2,000,000 to $3,000,000 annually, while the revenue from the jirodtrctlve pronerty of theeitY suffices to meet its- interest on its debt and to keep down tbe principal without the aid of the assessment. The interest on the debt of Boston-, contracted at various times during a series of years, averages not far from 5\ per cent., but its recent loans for renewals and for public improve ments bear from 4 to 4J per cent., its credit having been preserved by its pay ments in gold daring the suspension of specie payment. —William John Scott Bentinck, fifth. Duke of Portland, one of the greatest of English landowners, who died in London on Saturday, was bom in 1800. He was, of a taciturn nature, akin to madness, never marrying, and for many years was. subject to a 'painful malady. He was. morbidly averse to society of any kind, devoting his whole time and part of his enormous income—estimated at about $1,500,000 a year—to keeping his estate at Welbeck in the most superb order* He employs hundreds of men, and although he was constantly among them giving orders, he would allow no one to speak, to him, dischaiging any man who even touched his hat to him.

T)AIN in the right side, under th« 1 edge of the ribs, increases on pres sure; sometimes the pain is in the left side; the patient is rarely able to lie on the left side; sometimes the pain is felt under the shoulder blade, and it frequently extends to the top of the shoulder, and is sometimes mistaken for rheumatism in the arm. The stom ach is affected with loss of appetite and sickness; the bowels in general arc costive someumej alternative with lax; the head is troubled with caioy accompanied with a dull, heavy'sen? sation in the back part. There is gen erally a considerable loss of memory, accompanied with a painful sensation of having left undone something whieh ought to have been done. 9A slight; dry cough is sometimes an attendant. The patient complains of weariness and debility; he is easily startled, his feet are 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. Several of the above symptoms attend the disease, but cases have occurred vhere few of them existed, yet exam ination of the body, after death, has shown the liver to have been exten sively deranged. * % AGUE AND FEVER.
