—On Sunday, says the New York Sun,
the St. Lawrence at Cape Vincent was a
smooth sheet of ice. All day long sleighs
crossed and recrossed, and foot passengers
trooped over the crystal roadway. But
when the clocks struck 12 yesterday noon
there was no ice to be seen; only the rip
pling waters of the enfranchised river.
Incidents of this sort are not unknown
on our own great lakes. At Chicago, one
moonlight evening about twenty years
ago, thousands of people skated until a
late hour. The next morning the resi
dents of Michigan Avenue, when they
looked out of their windows, rubbed their
eyes in astonishment. Where the -k.iters
had sported the night before tumbled the
blue waves of the lake. Not so much as
a handbreadth of ice was left.

Sudden • Dismissal of Clerks.—A
very extensive reduction in the working
force of the government printing office
was suddenly made on Thursday, in con
sequence of the almost entire exhaustion
of the appropriation made for the main
tenance of that office during the present
fiscal year. Notices were posted in the
building that the Public Printer is prohib
ited by law from contracting debts in ad
vance of the appropriations, and as the
appropriation for the present year is near
ly exhausted, he was directed to furlough
the greater part of the employes. About
one thousand men and women are thrown
out of employment and will remain idle
until the deficiency appropriation which
has been pending before the House
Appropriation Committee for some
time shall be made. Public Printer De-
frees says that sufficient force has been
retained to get out the Congressional
Record and do the necessary work of’the
departments for a fqw days longer.
A Bold Step fob Blaine.—The
Washington correspondent of the TFor/d
says it is reported there that a call will be
issued in a day or two for’ the Ohio Re
publican Convention to meet on March
25. This programme is believed to have
been originated and matured here since
the Utica Convention, and It will shortly
be seen, unless all signs fail, to be the
first bold step of Mr. Blaine’s friends to
ward securing pledged delegations to the
Chicago Convention, and to his skill and
energy in rallying and advising his friends
* from that point is credited the surprisingly
bold stand taken at the Utica Convention
against Mr. Conkling. It was said after the
convention that Mr. Blaine had expressed
himself as wishing for nothing better for
his own cause than a few more such vic
tories for General Grant. But if he said
anything of the kind the sudden project
to call the Ohio Convention, indicates that
he did not believe it. If Mr. Blaine can
secure the Ohio delegation, the conse
quences upon the alleged boom of Secre
tary Sherman are obvious.
The Potato Cbop of Ibeland.—
A Dublin correspondent of the Sun says
the .cotton belt of the South illustrates
the evil here pointed out. There is a fas
cination in the raising of cotton, with its
possible great yield and high prices. It is
almost like a game of chance, or like
Wall street. Large sections of this belt
do not produce coin enough for the peo
ple’s use. Everything must give way to
cotton. After the war there came two
or three years of partial or disastrous fail
ure of the cotton crop, and thousands of
planters stood face to face with ruin. Our
hop districts tell similar stories..
The present suffering in Ireland is con.
fined to those counties that are almost ex
clusively devoted to the raising of potatoes,
oats, and pigs. Those parts of the Island
in which manufactures and commerce
have play utter no cry of famine. A
people who depend mainly upon the pota
to, the oat, and the pig for sustenance will
always be in danger. The loss of a sin
gle potato crop may precipitate dire disas
ter. An able observer, himself of Irish
descent, years ago exclaimed: “The po-
ato is a curse to Ireland.”
Death of an Expreaa ■caciipr.
The news of ihe death of Mr. T. J.
Born, a well known and popular Express
Messenger, formerly of this place, reached
here yesterday. • He died yesterday morn
ing in Conyers. He was at one time de
livery clerk in this city, and made many
friends while here. His Superintendent
bears testimony to his entire devotion to
his duties, and his many excellent quali
ties. He had an insurance of $2,000 in
the Expressmen’s Aid Society.

that place this season. It was composed
of the best people of the city, and was at
once critical, refined and appreciative,
Large as it was, however, we think we
arc safe in saying that at the close of the
performance all carried away that feelin]
of satisfaction which follows perfect enjoy
ment. The play is one ’ which engage
the attention by the vividness of its action,
the depth of feeling, and though a less at
traction, the pleasantness and ofttimes
brilliancy of its wit.
The play is founded upon a mistake,
and the complications growing therefrom
make up the woof and warp of the drama.
The characters are mostly American, but
enough of the foreign cast is thrown in to
strongly mark the play with French vil
lainy and Italian warmth of feeling. The
scenes are strongly worked up, aud
climaxes of thrilling inter
est keep the audience in a state bordering
on actual anxiety. The author lias stud
ied his work well, and plays upon the
emotions of his audience, touching the
chords of mirth and feeling and bringing
responses as readily as do tbe fingers of a
musician, as they wander among tbe keys
of some grand instrument.
The play as presented by Mr. Ford’s
company, is simply grand. There is no
star in the company which overshines the
rest, and’to whom all have to play with
the servility which almost is always noted
when this is the case, but each actor is a
star and dll form a constellation bright,
sparkling and worthy the admiration of
all.
As “Cicely Blaine,” an American Heir
ess, Miss Rosa Rand won tbe entire admi
ration of the audience in tbe first act, and
held it to the end. She is a remarkably
finished and accomplished artist, whose
stage presence is at once engaging and
very effective.
Miss Marie Bockel as “Francesca Bra
bant,” tbe forsaken and injured wife,
proved herself a more than worthy repre
sentative of the role, and in the part did
some strong acting, disarming criticism
and establishing herself at once.in the
sympathy of'her audience. The strong
emotions, of a woman from the warm
clime of Italy, were illustrated with a re
alism that showed the artist of genius.
Miss Belle MdKenzie enacted the role
of “Psyche Gay” in a very sparkling man
ner, piquant, natural, free from affecta
tion or mannerism. Her acting received
compijments of no equivocal nature all
over the house.
“Mrs. Gay,” by Mrs. Germon, was done
in a style, could not be criticised so round
ed in conception and excellent in execu
tion.
“Dolores, Francescas’ child,” was pre
sented by little Lillie Parslow, of tbe ju
venile Pinafore tronpe. She was of
course a favorite from tbe beginning, be
ing received with applause on her first
appearance. She is an inimitable little
artist, and holds a warm place in the
hearts of Maconites.
Mr. Robert Downing as the hero of the
drama, “Sidney Norcott,” an English ar
tist, was all that coqld be .wished. Full
of mauly strength, yet at' times showing
all the fervor and earnestness of an artist-
ndture, the part could not have been bet
ter filled.
The scene at tbe close of the third act
between himself and Cicely Blaine, was
one of the most thrilling dramatic passa
ges seen in Macon in a long while.;
“Franklin Fitts” was inimitable in the
hands of Mr. George W. Denham, who is,
as all know, one of the best of come
dians. *
Mr. Alirendt, who will be remembered
one of the t dors in “Julius
Caiasar,” with the Bangs party gave a
very perfect presentation of “Oliver Oli-
phant.”
Mr. Galloway proved himself, as “Baron
LeBois,” all that the audience expected—
a careful and and faithful actor.
All the other members of the troupe did
well.
The play was splendidly mounted, the
ladies wearing dresses which were ele
gance itself. Miss Rand and Miss Bock
el were called before the curtain, and
Miss McKenzie received an elegant fioral
tribute during the evening.
This afternoon and evening, “Fun on
tbe Pacific” will be given, when all who
wish to see the best tronpe of the season,
should not fail to attend.
was engaged at- the Brown House in the
capacity of man of all work and had been
there some timo. Yesterday an old gen
tleman from Monroe, who gave his name
as Adams, Saw the darkey and identified
him as the one who committed the crime,
He was confident of the identification as
the darkey had been in his employ previ
ous to the time of the killing. The’ police
was notified and plans laid to take him,
One of the officers approached him and
entered an enclosure, the entrance to
which wa3 furnished with a gate with a
lock. The darkey suspecting somethin;
as soon as the officer had gotten well in
the enclosure, darted like a flash through
the gate, locked it after him and fled for
the swamp.
Pursuit was given by another officer but
in vain, and the darkey escaped. Both of
the officers are efficient and aleit men,
and two of the best on the force, and only
the ever suspicious quickness of the dar
key,conscious of guilt, enabled his escape,
He is said to have shot another darkey
while at work in a field for which offense
he levanted for Monroe connty. • 1
Boy Killed on the Central Bond.
Yesterday morning as the inward bound
passenger train on tbe Central road was
running at a high rate of speed about
three miles from Griswoldville, a boy who
was on the track was run over and in
stantly killed. He was about twelve years
of age. It was impos^luie to tell whether
he was a white boy ->r a very bright mu
latto. It is thought, however, that he was
of the latter color. His' name could not
be ascertained. The remains were placed
in tbe charge of'the officials of tbe road
for identification.
Funeral ot Mr. George H. hognn.
At St. Paul’s Church yesterday morn
ing the funeral services of Mr. Geoige
H. Logan took place. The building was
-filled to its utmost capacity by ibe friends
of tbe deceased, who were present to pay
the last tribute of respect to his memory.
No young man in Macon had fewer
enemies or was • more generally es
teemed by all who knew him, and his un
timely end, while in the full vigor of
young manhood, with a future rich in
promises ofsuccess and happiness, with all
the home ties which render life enjoyable,
all enlisted more sympathy than is usual
on these occasions for the living and
greater sorrow for the dead.
The services were unusually solemn,
and many wet eyes gave testimony of
affection and esteem. Rev. Mr. Jackson
read the Episcopal service for the burial
of the dead. The music was unusually
sweet and beautifuL- The burial chant
was sung by the choir, followed by tlie
hymn, “ Just as I am.” As the services at
tbe church were concluded, the measures
of the beautiful hymn, “ Nearer my God
to Thee,” was sung in an exquisite man
ner, and as they floated upward the flow-
er-burthened casket wa3 borne forth,
followed by nearly every resident of Vine-
ville, the home of the deceased, and many
were unable to repress the tears which
welled up unhidden. The services at the
grave were conducted by Dr. Key and
Rev. Mr. Jackson, and the remains con
fided to the keeping of mother earth. Mr.
Logan’s death is one of the saddest
which has occurred in Macon in some
time. His bereaved family have the deep
est sympathy of the community. .
Silver Spray.
The audience which attended the “Gal
ley Slave” last evening, was pleasantly
surprised by finding that the programmes
used were perfumed with silver spray co
logne. The odor perfumed the entire
house. We learn from the programme
that the cologno is from the establishment
of Mr. R. B. Hall, the druggist, and that
during the coming week he makes the
generous offer to donate to the Ladies’
Memorial Association one-fourth of the
sales of this cologne, for the purpose of
aiding in the completion of the mona
ment. This is a very generous offer on
the part of Mr. Hall. The cologne speaks
for itself. This evening the programmes
will be printed on blotting pads and per
fumed, as last night.
City Bonds.
We learn that the Commission have
funded fifty thousand dollars of the city
bonds to date, that being tbe whole
amount as yet turned over to them. The
execution of the new bonds is rather a
slow process, as each bond requires tlie
signature of the Treasurer one hundred
and twenty-one times, and then pass to
the Mayor for several signatures.
The commission is now, we are pleased
to be able to state, working along harmo
niously, and the result will be tbe ready
funding of the debt and the consequent
prosperity of the city.. The friends of the
city arc watching the workings of the new
scheme with great interest.
Fight in the Car Shed.
Last evening quite a number of colored
laborers arrived in the city from North
Carolina, on their way to tbe turpentine
farms along tlie Macon and Brunswick
Railroad. While’ in the car shed, waiting
for tbe departnre of the train, an alterca
tion arose in which four or five became
involved. A regular fight ensued, and the
police was summoned to quell tbe dis
turbance. One of the darkies drew his
-knife and defied the police, but was
promptly arrested and taken to the bar
racks. Another of tbe most disorderly
ones was also arrested, taken in tow and
landed in tbe hotel De Chapman.
Two others who were waijted badly,
managed to elude tbe officers and es
cape. Tbe rest of tbo party went on to
their destination. The two who were ar
rested will have a hearing before the
Mayor this morning.

Fine Horses and Mules.
Messrs; Timberlakc & Chapman this
morning advertise fine liorses and mules
for sale, to arrive to-morrow and Friday
next. .They are enterprising gentlemen,
and this season have done a very fine bus
iness in their line. They bare constantly
on hand, in the stock season, as fine stock
as is ever brought to this market. Their
popularity is well established, and they
are doing well. . They have also fine
turnouts and saddle horses.
New Cottage Building*.
The number of new cottage buildings
being erected in the city are greater than
has ever been known before. Newly
shingled roofs are to be seen in almost
every quarter and neat Httle bouses are
springing up on all sides. Near tbe cem
etery, near Findlay’s foundry, in tbe vi
cinity of Tatnall square, in East Macon,
toward Vineville, in fact, almost every
quarter of Macon, shows marked and de
cided improvement in this respect.
This style of improvement indicates an
increase in the population of a place. It
shows the incoming of a class of citizens
who live by their daily exertion but who
prove themselves substantial additions to
tbe population of a city.
Another indication of the increasing
population of the city is tbe scarcity of
houses. Real estate dealers have difficulty
in supplying the demand of their custom
ers, while an eligible house remains va
cant but a short while.
Rents are, however, not high, and good
houses, whenjthey are procurable at all,
can he had at reasonable prices.
A Troublesome Thief.
The darkey Fred Lark, who has figured
so extensively recently in Bibb and neigh
boring counties as an accomplished thief,
jail breaker and foiger, whose arrest
in this city a few days since, and subse
quent incarceration in Irwinton jail, have
been noted, has been heard from again.
Tlie Irwinton Southerner and Appeal has
the following in regard to his latest at
tempt to escape ftom jail:
Fred Lark, the prisoner who was
brought from Pulaski county last week,
lias made another .attempt to break jail.
He being considered a slippery customei,
be was chained by the ankle to a staple
in the floor, and when sheriff Wright went
in the jail Tuesday evening he discovered
that the lock that fastened the chain to
the staple in the floor was brokeh, and the
connection then made with a leather
string, probably to create the impression
that this was still securely fastened. How
he managed to break the lock without
tools of any kind, is a mystery. Undoubt
edly Lark is a thief by profession, as he
has voluntarily confessed that he was one
of the party of three who robbed Mr. O.
Bower of a laige sum of county school
money in December last. He refuses to
go into details until the April session of
Superior Court.
Translation of the Pope’s Order.
In 1800, Pope Pius IX., on petition
from the ifiocese of Georgia, issued an or
der for the sale of the old Catholic Church
in Macon. The application, as well as
the rescript from the late Pope, was writ
ten in Latin. A history of the church,
with, the rescript, was resurrected by Sir.
Butler, and wiU be found in his volume
entitled the “History of Macon and Cen
tral Geoigia,” with historical events
throughout the whole of Geoigia.
A premium of a copy of the book was
offered by the author, to any youth un
der eighteen years of age, residing in
Bibb county, who would make or come
nearest making, a translation of the re
script. Professors E. A. Steed, of fiercer
University, and F. J. M. Daly, of Pio No-
no College, with the Rev. Robert F. Jack-
sou, Jr., also an accomplished Latin schol
ar, from the University of Virginia, were
appointed the committee to pass upon the
translation of the competitors. The com
mittee unanimously voted for Godfrey
Scliadwell.
Mr. Schadwell Is 17 years of age and is
a native of Connecticut, but is now a stu
dent at Pio Nouo College. Among the
competitors were several other transla
tions of great merit, one by a graduate of
Sir. John T. Ford.
Mr. John T. Ford leaves this morning
for Savannah with his company. During
his sojourn in Macon he has made many
friends, and his return here will always
be greeted with pleasure. His daughter,
who accompanies him, also won many ad
mirers by her refined and modest de
meanor, and many accomplishments of
mind and manner. They were the re
cipients of-many social attentions while in
tills, city.
Address on the Exodus.
To-morrow evening at the City Hall,
J. B. De Veaux, well known in this city,
and who is at present' an attache of the
Treasury department at Washington,will
speak to the people of Macon on the sub
ject of the exodus of tbe celored people to
the West. He particularly wants all of
bis and tbe darkeys’ white friends to
come out and bear tbe speech. His views
are conservative, and his object is to show
the true inwardness of the.exodus, and to
do all in his power to protect his race
from the schemes of designing politicians
and speculators. .
Professor Plinraipi.
Professor Pharazyn, the magician and
ventriloquist, will exhibit at Ralston Hall
to-morrow, Tuesday and Wednesday even
ings, with a matinee on Wednesday after
noon. The Professor has exhibited in
many of the cities of this State this sea
son, and has received numbers of flatter
ing endorsements at the hands of the press
of places where he has been. A Middle
Geoigia exchange says of his performance:
“The whole exhibition is first class in
every particular. His powers of ventrilo
quism are astonishing, while his exhibi
tion of mechanical dancing is truly won
derful.”

The Matinee.
Yesterday afternoon one of the hand
somest matmee audiences which lias as
sembled this season in Ralston Hall, wit
nessed the first rendition of “Fun on the
Pacific.” The audience inclnded the
largest and handsomest gatlieriug of the
ladies of the city that has been seen , in
the hall in sevferal months, and the scene
presented was brilliant and beautiful. It
was a fitting testimonial to the occasion
from tbe ladies of MacoD, and showed
that whenever called upon to aid in per
petuating the memory of. the gallant
dead, the reponse ready and ear. test will
always be given. . ... . .
Tlie matinee passed off in the pleasant
est manner possible, each artist being
greeted with applause as they came upon
tlie stage, littlo Lillie Parslow meeting
with a very cordial reception at the hands
of the many ladies and children present,
with whom she was a decided favorite.

HOPE
Frederick Paulding.
Mr. Paulding will return to Macon on
the 11th instant and at that time wiU ap
pear as Claude Melnotte in Bulwer’s pop^
ular drama of Lady of Lyons. The play
has not been given in Macon in many
years. Romeo and Juliet was first select
ed, but at the request of many of Mr.
Paulding’s admirers the change was
made. The New York Star says:
The house was filled with a fair and
impartial audience, which did not fail to
recognize the merits shown by the young
actor in this character (Claude Melnotte).
In some respects it is the best impersona
tion he has just yet given us. ■ • • * •
When Claude takes Pauline, his bride, for
the first time to his mother’s house, and
where, upon discovering the humble char
acter of it, she upbraids him, Mr. Pauld
ing imparts to the character a tenderness
and pathos that was touching: the grief,
remorse and regret were portrayed with
an intensity that appeared directly to tbe
hearts of the spectators, and he was
Mercer University, which probably came warmly applauded*
They were gracefully received. The;
flowers were presented by the committee
of tbe Memorial Association, and it was a
thoughtful and graceful act on their part
and one appreciated by the fair recipients
Miss Rand, who was.not in the cast,
and Miss Lizzie Ford, the highly ac
complished daughter of Mr. Ford, was
not forgotten, and each also received flo
ral offerings.
The duty off quinine did not save mnch,-
as that drug is not os extensively used as
before the invention of Tabler’s Portaline,
to regulate tlie liver, and cure diseases
organ. Portaline will cure torpid liver.
