The general estimate of the most careful statisticians places the total popu lation of the United States under the cen sus of 1SS0, between 47,000,000 and 48,- 000,000, a gain of neatly 9,000,000 in the past ten years. Tammany’s “commissioner” has re turned from Cincinnati, and reports hav ing secured for the Tammany headquar ters the finest rooms at the Burnet House, in Cincinnati, and for the accommodation of the warriors 150 rooms at the Burnet House and 130 at the St. James Hotel. The editors of the Telegraph ac knowledge the compliment of a sack of “Hemphill’s Gate City Flour,” from B. A. Hemphill, Esq., 102 Peachtree street, Atlanta. They will be better able to judge of its merits when sampled. That gentleman will please accept of their thanks for his kipd remembrance. The Price of Beer to re Raised.— The Lager Beer Brewers’ Association of Philadelphia publishes a notice that on account of the increase in the price of barley and hops and the failure of the ice crop hereabouts, SO per barrel will be charged for all lager beer sold on and after the first Monday in April. —Daniel Drew originated the term “watered stock.” He was a drover in early life, and one day when a party de sired to sell him some inflated stock said: “That stock makes me think of old farm er Brooks, up in “Put,” who used to salt and water his stock to make the cattle weigh heavy when he sold them!” The broker told the story in the street, and it became an adage. —A fpur-years-old Sunday-school girl did the best she Could with a question that was asked of the infant class. Said the teacher, reading from Isaiah xxxvii., 1. “And it came to pass, when King Hezekioh heard it he rent his clothes.”. Now, what does that mean, children—he rent his clothes?” Up went a little hand. * “Well, if you know, tell us.” “Please, ma’am,” said the child, timidly, “I s’pose he hired ’em out.” —A colored man in Baltimore last week, who is about to be tried for murder, was informed that the recent Supreme Court decision gave him the “inalienable right” to have a jury composed of colored men. He thereupon declared that he “did not want to be tried by a colored jury because his chances were better with a white jury, and he wasn’t going to be made a catspaw of and for law to be prao ticed on him.” He continued to riterate his desire to be tried by “an intelligent white jury.” —At a social game of poker a Virginia City merchant recently won an undevel oped gravel claim, near Nevada City, and was laughed at. He said, with some strong language, that he’d show ’em a trick or two, and after “salting” his gravel bed with $500 worth of gold dust and small nuggets, induced Eastern capitalists to examine his rich claim. They did so, bought it of him for $2,000, and in the first three weeks took $8,000 out of the claim. Then the Virginia City merchant was very much disgusted with himself. —“How does the T.nrd make nats?” always trying to find out the whys and wherefores of things. “Does He make the cats first, and sew the tails on, or does He make the tails first, and sew the cats on?” Every clergyman who comes to the house is asked the same question, but no satisfactory reply has yet been given. He threatens now that unless he finds out very soon he will take his favorite Topsy all to pieces, and see for himself. —The Mormons have played a very shrewd dodge to get possession of all the good land in Utah. The United States statutes forbid settlers from taking land under the public land laws within the limits of a city corporation; and the Mormons have incorporated no less than thirty-seven different cities in the territory, •Most of them consist only of a few cabins; but the Latter Day Saints consider that they fulfil the requirements of the law. Senator Edmunds has called the attention of Congress to this scheme to keep out settlers, and some legislation will undoubt edly be adopted to counteract it. —The Independent Republicans of New York, who led the thirty thousand scratch- ers against Cornell last fall, are solid.fy- ing their organization and promising trou ble for either Grant or Blaine. A repre sentative of the organization has recently been through New York State and reports that there is the most outspoken indigna tion over the action of Senator Conkling’s convention in instructing for Grant, and Independent organizations are being effect ed in different counties. Tne present in tention of the Independent Republicans is to work for the nomination of the right kind of man at Chicago, and they will support almost any one who may be nom inated there except Blaine or Grant. A Rape Bill in Congress.—When the urgent necessities of the times, says the Washington Gazette, brought by the frequently-recurring commission of the heinous crime of rape in our community, caused the introduction into the Senate, by Senator Harris, of a bill providing for the death penalty in the cases of criminals convicted of rape, the people of Washing ton began to feel inspired with the hope that they had seen the last of the series of outrages of this kind perpetrated with in the last year or two in our city. It was felt that only the severest restrictive meas ures would meet the evil, and that with the certainty of prompt execution staring him in the face, the ruffian whose brutal inclinations might render him prone to outrage innocence would be terrified in to self-restraint. Activity in the Manufacture of Quinine.—Since the first of the year an active demand for sulphate of quinia has sprang up, and the principal manufactur ing chemists in this city report a greater business in that article the past three months than for any similar period within their recollection, the demand in the month of January being particularly heavy. This activity is attributed to the fact that the West and South, which dur ing the last three months of last year were unusually exempt from malarial disorders, arc beginning to feel the effects of the The Political Situation. The political situation is assuming an unusually interesting phase. All the old antagonisms are coming to the front again, and it is not impossible that they may again strike fire by collision. At least it is an undeniable fact that uneasy, disquieting apprehensions are entertained ! by many in reference to the coming Presi- dential election. Painful recollections of the last contest and its results are retained in the minds of the more thoughtful, and constitute the principle ground of appre hension for the future. It is not so much the fear that this or that man may be elec ted, but that there may be serious trouble in any event. The country, immediately following the last Presidential election, was in a peril ous condition, which might have eventual ted in actual civil strife, but for the pro fessed aversion of the Democracy and the South to any more trouble of the kind. No one doubted the election of Mr. Tilden, not even Mr. Hayes himself; but the par ty in power were so thoroughly aroused at the idea of losing their hold upon the government, that they resolved to hold it at all hazards—even of bloodshed and carnage, if necessary. To avert this impending calamity a re sort to means and methods hitherto un known and unheard of in the history of the nation, was had, and for the first time we now have a man who was never elect ed as President. Mr. Hayes, as far as we know, has never claimed that he was elected by the people, but exercises au thority under the grant of the 8 to 7 com mission. ' These things are still fresh in the minds of the people, and if anything were need ed to remind us of them, they may in ferred in the daily vaporings of the stal warts that in Grant they have a man who will not only not be counted out, but if necessary will count himself in, whether elected or not. No solid South shall elect a President. Political campaigns have ceased to have an educational value. There was a time in our past history when a clear presenta tion of all the principles involved and upon which parties divided was looked for; but in these latter days there is so much of personal interest and personal hate, and such an quantity of outrageous falsification in the canvass that ail truth and fact is lost sight of. The whole po litical arena is turned over to place men and place seekers, struggling.for office. What they are ready to do to secure it, we may learn in the fact that their first sac rifice is that great unwritten law, estab lished by the Father of his Country, which is practically essential to an electoral suc cession. Nothing but that hallowed pre cedent saves the countiy from a life-ten ure, if not from Legitimacy. The situation, as it opens, is portentous with “the fate of Caesar and of Rome.” Caesar, they, boast is secure—but what of Rome? Storing Grain for Ocean Transporta tion.

But in a trice the sails were reefed, the hatches closed to keep out the combing surges, and the good ship’s course so di rected that she righted again. But on the ocean when a vessel, heavily laden with a shifting cargo, like corn or wheat, is thus thrown over on her beams ends by the violence of the wind, the grain changes position and prevents the recovery of the equilibrium. Hence the ship too often careens over, and, capsizing, all on board meet a watery grave. This subject has been deemed of', siiffij cient importance to be brought to the nof tice of Parliament. Before the late disso lution, therefore, Mr. Plimsoll, the famous mariner’s friend, introduced a bill com pelling the shipment of grain_ in, sacks only. American navigators join issue with him, however, and affirm that the Setter plan is to construct longitudinal bins or compartments along the. centre of the ship, which may be subdivided into ^mailer areas • by moveable partitions. The perpendicular sides of these bins hold the grain iu position so as to prevent it from shifting laterally in any direction It is hoped that some such plan in load ing will result in greatly diminishing the danger to the grain carrying marine of the country. Governor Colquitt’s Candidacy. A correspondent of the Albany Even ing Advertiser, writing from Atlanta on the 27th, says: “The political situation in Georgia is on the eve oi some great changes. Since Governor Colquitt’s re turn from the Cincinnati excursion liis truest triends outside of Atlanta have had long conferences with him, and one made free to tell him that he could not get the Democratic nomination. To-day it is quite freely asserted that Colquitt will run independent. General Gartrell, it seems, has got the inside track for the nomina tion, and he and his friends are working assiduously. The Independents say they will not support Colquitt, and in event of his candidacy they will be forced back to the nominee. We have never heard it asserted author itatively that Governor Colquitt would be a candidate for re-election, even before the Convention of his party, though such seems to be the prevailing belief! But for any one to say that hqp$ capable of enac ting the part of a bolter and setting up for himself, seek to demoralize and defeat the organization that- has generously honored JjJjn/’No power on earth could induce to take such a step.

Subsequently we had the pleasure of a friendly hand shake with Colonel Wad- ley, whom we met coming out ofthe Cen tral Railroad Bank (where he had been besieged with visitors), with Colonel Rog ers, on his way to dinner. As usual, he was kindly, courteous and affable, and knowing that circumlocution was not ne cessary, we speedily came to tliepoint,and inquired what truths there was in the re ports that had been in circulation. He replied that there were so many reports that he really did not know, which we re ferred to. We then said, Colonel, it is stated that the contract between the Cen tral and the Louisville and Nashville Railroad was terminable by either road giving ninety days’ notice, find that after the purchase of the controlling interest in the Western and Atlantic by Mr. Taylor, that you gave the required notice to the Louisville and Nashville, and the result is the projected building of the Georgia Western. Now we want to know if this is so, and if it affects the existing rela tions with the Louisville and Nashville? Colonel Wadley—Now, that is a big mistake. The reported ninety days’ no tice was in reference to an arrangement that existed prior to the original combina tion with Colonel Cole, and has nothing whatever to do with arrangements since made. Then, Colonel, it seems that the termi nation of that agreement does not have anything to do with the present relations of the Central and Louisville and Nash ville? Colonel Wadley—Not in the least. Society of Savar.nah, held March 23rd, 18S0, the bills now before Congress, to increase the powers'of the National Board of Health, were discussed, and as it is contrary to the by-laws of the society to pass resolutions upon matters of a public nature, it was decided that a paper be prepared expressive of the views of the individual members,-to be signed by them and presented to the City Council, Cotton Exchange, and the people of Savannah. In accordance with these instructions, the following is offered: .We, the undersigned,-members of the Georgia Medical Society, view with ap prehension the extraordinary and danger ous powers proposed to be conferred upon the National Board of Health, by the bills introduced in Congress by Hons. Messrs. Harris and C. Young, and also that pro posed by Mr. Acklen. The first section of Mr. Harris’ bill provides: “That the National Board of Health, or, in the inter vals of its sessions, its Executive Commit tee (of five) shall report to the President of the United States, whenever any place in the United States is considered by it to be dangerously infected with contagious or infectious disease, and that, upon the official publication by the President, of such report, the transportation of goods or persons from such a place into : auother State shall be unlawful, and all persons guilty thereof shall be liable to prosecu tion therefor in the Circuit Court or Dis trict Court of the United States, for any district within which such goods or per sons shall be transported, and any goods so transported shall be liable to be seized or destroyed, unless such transportation shall be carried on in accordance with rules and regulations made by the Nation al Board of Health, and approved by the President, as in other cases. These rules shall apply until Ihe President shall pro claim such place ns longer Infected, and in the meantime the Board, or its Execu tive Committee, shall report to him week ly, in writing, the sanitary condition of tured flax straw, and all other fibre and fibrous plants fit for use in the manufac ture of paper are recommended here after to be placed upon the free list.

TWO CONVENTIONS CALLED TO ASSEM BLE IN ATLANTA. Agreeably to notice ’ the StateExecntive Committee of the Democratic party met at Atlanta on Tuesday, all the members being present save John C. Nicholls, Mark H. Blandford and P. M. B. Young. The proxies of these gentlemen were respect ively James- Banks, John H. Martin and J. A* W. Jolinson. The chairman explained the objects of the meeting, after which Hon. George T. Banles, a^mefnber of the Democratic National Committee, was invited to sit with the committee and address them. This he did briefly, cn the importance of present national issues and the duties of the hour. Mr. Simmons presented a set of resolu tions which were laid temporarily upon the table. Mr. M. W. Lewis offered the following: Resolved, That the committee issue a call for the two conventions of the Dem ocratic party of the State, to be held in on The first, for Well, Colonel, arc you perfectly satis-' the place in question.” This demand has caused prices to recover somewhat from the depression which fol lowed the pressing upon an already over stocked market of large quantities of the men into tlieir buggy and bid them adieu as they drove off.

The resolution of Mr. Lewis was adop ted by a vote of 15 yeas to 4 nays. • A motion to fill the first blank with Ma con was lost by a vote of 8 to 4, and At lanta substituted. The day designated was Wednesday, June 6th. After an other ineffectual attempt in behalf of Ma con, August 4tli was named as the time for holding Ihe second convention, which The basis of representation was fixed at twice the number of Representatives in the lower branch of the Legislature. Hon, H. P. Bell offered the following resolutions; . Resolved, That the people of Georgia, in selecting their delegates to said con vention, are hereby earnestly requested to adopt such methods satisfactory to themselves, as will insure a full, free, and fair expression ofthe popular choice in selecting delegates and candidates. The committee recommend that meetings to appoint delegates to the first convention meet on the first Tuesday in June next, and the meetings to appoint delegates to the second convention be held on Wednes day, the second day of July, and in each case that the most extensive notice practi cable be given. Whereas, The National Democratic Convention at St. Louis in 1876 referred the question of adopting the majority or two thirds rule by the National Demo cratic Nominating Conventions, to the Democracy of the several States; Resolved, That the people in their pri mary assemblies, held to appoint dele gates to the first convention herein called, be, and they are hereby, requested to express their views upon this question. These resolutions after being amended so as to insert Wednesday, the 21st day of July, in lieu of the other date were adopted. Mr. John H. Martin introduced the fol lowing resolutions which, after some dis cussion were adopted seriatim: Resolved, That this committee, having •in its deliberations and action, ignored all personal interest and all previous es-, trangements and divisions among Demo crats, earnestly calls upon the whole par ty throughout the State to do likewise, overlooking or casting behind them the bitterness of their late contests with one another, and uniting once more against the common antagonist of their principles and their policy. Resolved, That for the promotion of this end, all Democrats in principle are urged to participate on an equal footing In the primary meetings for the selection of delegates thereto. The convention adjourned in the after noon after passing a resolution of thanks to the Kimball House for the use of its breakfast room. The above is a succinct statement of - the" action of the convention, and is condensed from tho Constitution. The proceed ings of the committee were charac terized by a commendable degree of har mony. ment of the world, which is their specialty. Filthy rags will descend again to their normal value, and wheat and rice straw command the mere bagatelle in the mar ket which is paid for them as litter for stock. Conceiving that “wood pulp” which is included on the free list, the uninitiated reader has no manner of conception. The writer, two years ago, when traveling on the Reading railroad, Pennsylvania, paus ed at Maueh Chunk, where immense pa per mills are located. Here acres upon acres were covered with poplar logs, all to be reduced to pulp and converted into paper. This pulp costs but a mere song, and but for the exorbitant protection afforded by the tariff, paper, which is used now for the inner lining of wall3, roofing, and almost every other conceiva ble purpose woujd necessarily rule very low. It is credibly State'S that the paper manufacturers of New England, who are the largest producers of the article in the world,-have made princely fortunes. Of late, notwithstanding, grown arrogant by prosperity and feeling secure in the mo nopoly allowed by Government, they have advauced prices to a figure which threatened with asphixiation half of the newspapers of the country. If Congress, however, will be prompt to put through the extorted recommendation of the Com mittee on Ways and Means in the House, and paper is made free, prices will again begin to assume their proper level. It is but just to say in this connection, that onr Southern paper mills have been quite for bearing and accommodating to their pat rons, and we have heard no special complaint against them Gold Without End. If we may credit the New York press, Edison, the Menlo Park scientific experi mentalist, has discovered a new method of extracting gold from the ore, the effect of which on the product and value of that precious metal, will be incredible. It will pass beyond the region of hard and sober fact, and soar clear way un into the golden skies of a gorgeous imagination. Edison is said to have stumbled on this discovery, while experimenting with the triturated and exhausted goid ores—call ed “tailings”—to obtain a supply of plati num for his electric lamps. In the course of experiments with these exhausted ores, he was surprised at the laigc yield of gold obtained by his new and cheap pro cesses, which in some cases amounted to a rate of $780 per ton of ore—or far in excess of the original product. It is nepdless to add, if this discovery be genuine, all California will be mined over again, and the supply of gold will be abundant enough to satisfy the veriest miser. Credulity, however, will halt over the fact; that the sage of Menlo Park discovers too much. He is “too unani mous.” ■ Lose not thy own for want of asking it 1 Lose not your infant for want of Dr. , „ Bull’s Baby Syrup, which any druggist fined $1,000 and imprisoned one year. wHl tell you for 25 cents a bottle. Southern Emigration. A largo number of Southern writers and journalists, says the Herald, appear to have very indistinct ideas in regard to immigrants, or that class of our popula tion who annually leave the Eastern States to seek homes in the West. In dis cussing the advantages possessed by the South, and the attractions—which are, no doubt, very great—it offers to immi grants, our contemporaries are astonished that thousands and thousands do not rush SouthtomUhe places^' tajsjoes^ is where our contemporaries make their great mistake. The wideawake, thrifty, enterprising and intelligent classes in the East who go West do so for the puipose of bettering their condition. They have not the most remote idea of becoming field bands. Their aim is to become the owners of property, to work for them selves instead of for others, and the fer tile fields of the West show how abun dantly they succeed. It is idle to expect this class o» people to go South as long as no better position than that of field hands is offered to them. And the Herald, it seems to- us, makes a mistake in assuming that there is any peculiar difficulty in acquiring landed property in the Southern States. We doubt not it is more easily obtained here than in any other part ofthe United States. Any reputable negro can rent land, if be has no means to buy, and with ordinary goed fortune soon own enough in fee simple. Here in the Southern States, there is all out-doors to occupy possess and cultivate. The proportionate area of arable land not in cultivation much greater than in any other section The “mistake” which we are supposed to commit in not offering ample salaries to immigrants from the North to come here and labor as hired field bauds is univer sal and inevitable. ; - Everywhere agricultural labor has its price, established by usage, and where one seeks to perform such labor for hire he must accept current wages, though he he a doctor of philosophy. But, on the other band, if the labor be too low to tempt man, when he can easily rent or purchase land and labor on his own account, and hire the labor of others at low rates, why- should he find fault? It is not esscutial to Southern welfare that immigrants should come. It is no; to indispensable agriculturists that the Southern crops of sugar, rice, tobacco, cot ton, etc., etc., should glut the markets and be heavy of sale. Better, perhaps, that they should continue as they now are, as good as gold in the pocket. But the inducements now offered by the South to agricultural immigration are so great that they must necessarily assert themselves before long.

Berlin, March 31.—Herr Oppenheim, i rpjj e resolution declaring Slemmons en- former member of the Reichstadt, and of j titled to the seat from the Second Arkan- the National Liberals and a free trader, Bistrict, W adopted. Chandler and Christian??. In the course of the matrimonial con troversy between ex-Senator Christiancy and his young wife, now seeking a divorce, the latter declares that she overheard a statement between her husband and the late Zach Chandler, in which Chandler said that Hayes had authorized him to offer Christiancy a foreign mission if he would resign the Scnatorship to enable a Legis lature fixed for the purpose to elect Chand ler to serve out the vacancy. Mrs. Chris tiancy says the offer was refused by her husband unless Chandler should pay him several thousands of dollars into the bar gain, and that then Chandler did pay the money. That Hayes, and Christiancy parried ’out their promises and that Chandler came hack to the Senate are well known. It is very convenient to have the public offices and funds as a stock in trade to serve the private ends of politicians, and the man claiming to be President to act as agent and negotiator, hut that was not their original purpose, and time was when the use of them as private funds for mere personal ends would have been considered scandalous.

The strike in St. Charles parish has ended by most of the laborers resuming work at the old wages. Cedar Rapids, Iowa, March 31.—A State Encampment of Our Country’s De fenders was organized here to-day. The organization is a political but not partisan, and its object is to preserve the Union.

This may be considered fairly indicative of the result. Washington, March 31.—In the House the Speaker proceeded to call committees for reports, when bills were reported and disposed of as follows: By Mr. Culberson, of Texas, from the Judiciary Committee, relating to prelimi nary trials before the Commissioners of the United States Circuit Court. Placed on the calendar. By Mr. Buckner, of Missouri, from the Committee on Banking and Currency, to prevent engraved signatures on National Bank notes. Placed on the calendar. By Mr. Davis, of North Carolina, from the same Committee, authorizing the Na tional Banks to make loans on mortgage on real estate. Placed on the calendar. In the Senate Mr. Cameron, of Wis consin, rose to what he deemed to amount to a question of privilege. He said that he was surprised to see that the testimo ny of E. S. Webber, taken before the sub committee ofthe Committee on Privileges and Elections, at NewOrleans, appeared in the printed record of the case laid on Sen ators’ desks, though, owing to his failure to appear before the committee for cross- examination, the committee had agreed to strikahis direct examination out. A note stating that the committee had agreed to strike out the testimony appears on the very last page of the volume, but a great many of those who might read the evi dence would not see this note, and Mr. Cameron desired, by his remarks, to pre vent Webber’s evidence from prejudicing Kellogg. Mr. Hill said that on page 1,185 of tbe record of the committee’s proceedings, an order -to strike Webber’s testimony out appeared.' He supposed Webber’s testimony taken in New York, was put into type before tbe full committee decid ed to have it stricken out, and therefore,, though technically stricken out, it was not physically stricken out. Everybody The House then proceeded to consider the Senate amendments to the star route deficiency bill. Mr. Blackburn opposed tbe amendments. Without final action, the House adjourned. In the Senate Mr. Maxey introduced a bill to revive tbe act of June 3rd, 1856, and to grant land to Morgan’s Louisiana and Texas Railroad and S. S. Company, and for other purposes. Referred. The bill for an international exhibition in New York in 18S3 was passed.^ The bill introduced by Mr. PaWlock to enable persons who have entered less than 160 acres of land under the homestead laws, to enter enough to make 160 acres, was passed. Mr. Bayard, from the Judiciary Com mittee, reported favorably on his bill amending the statutes so as to prevent the arrest of State election officers on election day. Placed on the calendar. 1 The consideration of the immediate de ficiency bill was resumed. In advocating an amendment adding an appropriation of S51,000 for dies, pa pers and stamps for the Internal Revenue Department, Mr. Beck took occasion to highly compliment the present adminis tration of that department, which by firm ness in suppressing illicit distilleries, ’ and fair and open treatment of lawful distil lers, had increased the revenue from spir its so much that this appropriation was made necessary to meet the increased business. This amendment, and the va rious Senate Committee amendments, were agreed to. Mr. Blaine offered an amendment pro viding that the employes of the Govern ment printing office shall have the same holidays as other Government employes, without losing their pay therefor. Mr. Davis of West Virginia, opposed this as general legislation on an appropri ation bill, to which he objected on princi ple. Mr. Blaine asked Mr. Davis if he would carry out that principle by voting against the Marshal’s clause in this bill. Mr. Davis replied that the Senate could not control the action ofthe House. Vot ing for the House bill was very different from voting for Mr.,Blaine’s amendment. Mr. Edmunds opposed Mr. Blaine’s amendment, and raised the point of order against it that it proposed general legisla tion on a general appropriation bill. The presiding officer (Rollins) rilled that the pending bill was not a general appropriation bill, and that Mr. Blaine’s amendment was in order. Mr. Edmunds appealed from this rul ing, and a debate ensued as to what con stituted a general appropriation bill. Mr. Blaine said he was opposed to the clause in the bill regulating the appointment of special deputy marshals, because it was I vicious in itself, not because it was at tached to an appropriation bill. To op pose it because it was on an appropriation bill was to make a petty objection. It was partisan in design, mischievous in in tent and disastrous in its consequences. After further discussion, tbe chair re versed his ruling, saying that while under the first clause of rule twenty-nine, the amendment seemed admissible, under the whole rale it was not in order. Mr. Blaine was dissatisfied with this ruling, and an animated and amusing col loquy ensued between him and Mr. Car penter, who endorsed the chair. Mr. Edmunds then moved to strike out the marshal’s clause. The motion was defeated and the bill read a third time by a party vote. Mr. Eaton moved for an executive ses sion, saying he though the bill could be passed at an early hour to-morrow. Agreed to. When the doors were reopened the Sen ate adjourned. The Senate confirmed the nomination of James C. Riley tu be postmaster at Dalton, Ga. Petersburg, Virginia, March 31.— There was a grand mass meeting of the Readjusters of this city, held in the Aca demy of Music last night, for the purpose of organizing the spring aud fall cam paign.

Resolutions were adopted that steps should be taken at once to bind together more closely in political friendship, all citizens of Virginia who are opposed to “funderism, Boorbonism, class legisla tion, unequal taxation and political pro scription,” and calls upon the Readjusters throughout the Commonwealth to co-op erate with them. Resolutions were also adopted endors ing the action of the Readjuster members of the Legislature in electing public offi cers in sympathy with them, and also in repealing the Moffet punch bill. Resolutions condemning the Governor for vetoing the McCulloch debt bill were also passed. Atlanta, March 3i.—A special to the Constitution from Monroe, Georgia, says that Robert Upshaw committed suicide by blowing his brains out with a shot-gun. No reason is assigned for the act. Upshaw stood well in the community. San Francisco, March 31.—The latest returns from various precincts show sweeping victory for the Citizens’ Union their ticket receiving 13,339 votes, against 10,246 for the Workingmen’s ticket. About 4,500 votes remain still to be counted. New York, March 31.—A London special says: This morning’s papers are full of the warlike attitude of China. The Standard’s St. Petersburg correspon dent freely discusses the probabilities of war with the Celestial Empire, and hopes that the collision may be averted. Rus sian journals for the most part urge that iu case of war, Russia should descend np- * on riie seaboard of China, in conjunction with the Japaneee, whooe friendship fa to be zealously cultivated. A Vienna correspondent of the Times says that Russia will make no concession, but will insist on tha ratification of the Kuldja treaty. St. Petersburg, March 31.—The Em press of Russia is sinking rapidly. Copenhagen, March 31.—The Crim inal Court has sentenced Baron Gedalia, a chief of the banking house of Gedalia & Co., diplomatic agent of the Bey of Tu nis, late Consul General to Portugal, and possessor of a dozen grand crosses aud other decorations, to one month’s impris onment for repeatedly using canceled stamps on stocks and bills. London, March 31.—The religious as sociations of France will probably con test in the courts, the legality of the de crees of the government against unautho rized religious societies, on the ground that the law3 they are based upon are obsolete. The Union, Count DeChambord’s or gan, The Honde, tlie organ of the Papal Nuncio, and the Universe, ultramontaue, are greatly exasperated, and declare that Catholics will vigorously resist the en forcement of the decrees. The Pays, M. Paul De Cassagnac’s paper, says the decrees are only prelim inary to the re-establishment of the guillotine tor political adversaries, while the Ordre and tbe Liberte, also Bonapar- tists, admit tbe legality of the decree. London, March 31.—The following were to-day elected members of Parlia ment without opposition: Right Hon. Sir Michael E. Hicks Beach, Conservative, minister of colonies for Gloucestershire east, re-elected; Mr. W. Biddle, Conserva tive, for Suffolk west; Mr. Alexander H. Brown, Liberal, for Wenlock, re-elected; Mr. Thomas Burt, Liberal, labor repre sentative for Mapath,re-elec:ed;-Mr. Lew is L. Dillwen, Liberal, for Swansea, re elected; Mr. Cecil T. W. Forrester, Con servative, for Wenlock, re-elected; Mr. Wm. D. Hughs, Liberal—conservative Liberal, but supports tbe government’s testimony was not a part of it. Hill, in this connection, stated that two affidavits ordered stricken out by him, also appear ed in the printed volume. He was not a printer, but supposed that it was custom ary to print tbe whole proceedings and let them speak for themselves. Mr. Saulsbury, chairman of the com mittee, said the superintendency of print ing the testimony taken before tbe com mittee, bad always been left to the steno grapher. He bad not thought it neces sary personally to supervise the print ing. Mr. Morrill asked Mr. Saulsbury if he had any objection to having the Webbeg testimony actually stricken out. Sauls bury bad none, except that it would make necessary tlie reprinting of the whole edition ofthe report. Mr. Ingalls thought tho incorrect re ports should be withdrawn, and a correct edition printer. Tbe volumes went into the public libraries all over the country, and tbe Senate should not stick at the ex pense of a few thousand dollars to cor rect an error prejudicial to one of the par ties to tbe case. Mr. Logan, a member of the committee, moved that tbe record of the case be cor rected, either by reprinting or by leaving out tbe parts ordered by the committee to be stricken out. Messrs. Saulsbury aud Hill saw no objection to this motion. Mr. Garland said tin: only parliamentary way to correct the testimony was to recommit for that purpose to the commitr tee. Mr. Logan modified his motion so as to recommit the evidence, with instruc tions to the committee to withdraw the copies already distributed, and correct the whole editiou. The motion was agreed to. The unfinished business ou tlie calen dar was then taken up, being the bill pro viding for an international exhibition in New York, in 1883. Washington, March 31.—In the House, Mr. Money, from the post-offices and post roads committee, reported back the post route bill, and it was passed. • Mr. Davis, ot North Carolina, from the Judiciary committee, reported a bill aii- (uticura REMEDIES. i attending the use oi i Skin ami Hr*l# tt OI UKS Skm and Scalp with Loss of Hair is astsDishic* The success attending the use oi these great Mug. id miraculous extend their tbacks to *11 who hate stoked good word for Outicura, Cuiicura Soap JS»SS»* cuia Resolvent, and will thankfully receivers portjol new cases wherever the? occur.
