m (J§£0cjgii* Q£*liegjcispl| *m& iSmssnai HM#&&2Viq%k, BY TELEGRAPH Mansfield, Ohio, April 1.—Secretary Sherman made a speech before a large audience at Miller’s Hall to-night, In which he said that by force of recent events, and not by bis self-seeking, he was mentioned as a candidate for the Presidency. Without a pretence of mock modesty, he accepted, the position, but with a firm determination not to detract from the merits or services of others, nor to seek this lofty position by dishonorable means or lying evasions or pretences. [Ap- plause.] In this way s and in this way only, was he a candidate, but with great doubt whether, if nominated, he would meet the expectations of his friends, and resolved that in case of failure he would abide cheerfully and kindly by the choice of the convention. He said the Republi can party proposed to maintain the poli cy of resumption, to enforce the constitu tional amendments with all the power of the national government, to the end that every man, poor or rich, white or black, be secured in his civil and political rights, and to extend the free school sys- ^New Orleans, April 1.—To General Bussey’s address of welcome last night, Grant replied: Gentlemen and Citizens of JVeio Orleans. After an absence of a great many years from your State, I am happy to return to it and very proud of the reception I am re ceiving at your hands, and very glad that it is given by your citizens, irrespective of former relations. Scenes of war are now past and we are an united people. I be lieve that if this country should unfor tunately become involved in war, we will all wear the same uniform under the same flag. [Cheers]. I hope for New Orleans and this section the prosperity it deserves. What benefits this city benefits the adjoining section. This State is capa ble of producing millions of dollars more in sugar than at present. I rejoice with you in the prosperity you have; I am glad to hear that this city has been so much benefited by improvements at the mouth of the river. What helps you helps a large section of our country and the entire Mis sissippi Valley; iufact,IwisliNew Orleans increased and long continued prosperity, believing and knowing that is the best cure for disorders and sectional animosi ties. Industrious people are always hap py and contented. Again, let me thank you, Mr. Chairman and friends, for this kind reception, and in conclusion, I hope that the blue aud gray may never again be arrayed against each other. The past is gone. Again 1 thank you. (Loud and continued applause.) London, April 1.—The Times inH leading editorial on the results of the polling yesterday, says: The Conservatives must admit a very grave discouragement. The balance of gains and losses is, on the whole, in favor of the Liberals, and it is obvious, if the tide of success flows as strongly as it did yesterday in favor of the opposition, the whole ministerial majority of 1874 will have melted away. This is more omin ous for the ministry, because it is ac knowledged that the loss of several seats in Scotland and Ireland, certainly a dozen and perhaps a score, is inevitable. London, April 1.—A Rome dispatch says M. De Spuz, French ambassador to the Vatican, delivered his credentials to the Pope in state. The Pope has sent Monsignor Calognesi on an extraordinary mission to the Mexican Government. ■ Philadelphia, April 1.—At one o’clock this morning a fire was discovered in the furnace room of the umbrella fac tory of Conorovy & Co., Twelfth and Wil liam streets. By the time the firemen ar rived the flames were bursting from every window, and the greater portion of the structure was destroyed. Portions of the building were occupied also by the Nov elty Paper Box Company, Brehmer Bros., Machinists, J. Johnson, Jr., and Conaway & Co. The losses are estimated at $70,000. Insurance $40,000. The Novelty.Paper Box Company loss is $15,- 000, Brehmer Bros. $0,000, J. Johnson $2,000. All covered by insurance.

Washington, April 1.—In the Senate Mr. Wallace, from the select committee to inquire into the alleged fraud in the . late election, submitted a report on the subject of assessments for political pur- . poses. Ordered printed and laid on the table. In the House Mr. Chalmers of Missis sippi, from the Committee on the Pacific Railway, reported a bill to complete the Pacific railway system. Printed and re committed. Mr. Singleton, of Mississippi, Chairman of the Committee on Printing, reported a resolultion for the printing of5,000 cop ies of the report of the select committee on the depression of labor and Chinese immigration. Washington, April 1.—In the House Mr. Hazleton of Wisconsin, objected to the resolution reported by the select com- . mittee on the depression of labor and Chi nese immigration. The committee bad . sought for the depression -of labor and had . found nothing but prosperity. The whole thing was played out and not worth the cost of printing. Mr. Singleton was far from agreeing with . the gentleman, and thought the report in- . teresting and worth printing. The reso lution was adopted. The House then considered the Senate bill amending the census act, and after striking out the provision doing away with all inquiries as . to naturalization and ownership of the public debt, the bill was passed. The House then went into com- mtttee of the whole on the star route de ficiency bill.. ‘ ,_.V zil Mr. Upson of . Texas, concluded his speech, began yesterday, in favor of main taining the present efficiency of the star service. Mr. Stone, of Michigan, said the Com mittee on Appropriations had found no evidence of fraud in the post-office de partments in the administration of the star service. He favored the teaUe amendments. Mr. Reagan, of Texas, was not opposed to the star service, but wished to see the The Senate, in executive session to-day, confirmed the nomination of Victor Thompson, of Mississippi, as consul at St. Thomas, and rejected the nomination of Alexander C. Wells, of Louisiana, to be Surveyor of Customs for the New Or leans district. Washington, April 1.—In the Senate Mr. Vance introduced a bill for the erec tion of public buildings at Greensboro, North Carolina. Referred. The bill authorizing the Secretary of War to acquire for the United States a ti tle to the site of Fort Stockton, Texas, was passed. Mr. Cockrell Introduced a bill to estab lish a semi-monthly steamship mail ser vice between the States of the Mississippi valley and Brazil, and asked its reference to the committee on Post-Offices and Post Roads. ~ Messrs. Conkling and Hereford claimed that it was substantially the same bill as that introduced by Mr. Cockrell yester day, which had been referred to the com mittee on Commerce against Mr. Cock- erll's wish. They objected to two differ ent committees considering the same sub- ^Mr. Cockrell said the bills were not identical. To-day’s bill merely extended to the Brazilian line, with provisions al lowing merchandise to pass through the mails After more discussion, Ingall’s objected to the second reading of the bill, and it therefore went over until to-morrow. Mr. Teller announced that the minor ity of the Wallace committee intended to make a minority report on political as sessments. The bill granting pension to Isaac of the Pension Committee, because the pension laws do not cover persons outside of military and naval service. Fending debate the morning hour expired, and the Senate resumed tbe consideration of the immediate deficiency bill, tbe question being on its final passage. Edmunds opposed it on tbe ground that the clause relating to the appointment of marshal’s, was practically the same as the measures proposed by tbe majority during the extra session. Deputy _ mar shals being executive officers, couid not be appointed by the courts without in terference between two separate de partments of tbe government. Dep uties so appointed, would not be responsible to, or controlled by Marshals, and tbe effect would be to ren der tlieir appointment useless. He ob jected to the courts recognizing political parties and choosing partisans for depu ties. He regarded this as one of the many Democratic attempts to repeal or nullify all legislation of the past nineteen years, which was intended to secure the rights of the people. The hill was then passed by a party vote. .... .. . The clause referred to provides t.iat deputy marshals shall be appointed by the United States Courts in equal num bers from the different political parties, aud that they shall he well known citizens of good moral character. On motion of Mr. Coke the hill ratify ing the Ute agreement was taken up, and without acting on it the Senate ad journed. • • _ In the House the Committee on Elec tions to-day rejected the resolutions res pectively declaring Messrs. Washburae and Donnelly entitled to a seat from Min nesota, and will report to the House that th'e seat is vacant and that a new election should be had. Washington, April 1.'—The Post master General declines to rescind his or der relating to the Kentucky Common wealth Lottery, as he did in the Louisi ana Lottery case, until an appeal lias been tsiren from the CiTil Court decision in April, 1S79. , General Chalmers, of Mississippi, in troduced in the House to-day a bill to complete the system of Pacific railways. It was referred to the Committee on Pa cific Railways, and by that committee to the sub-committee of which General Chal mers is chairman. At a meeting of the full committee to-day, General Chalmers submitted a substitute for his original bill and an elaborate report upon the whole subject. The report, which had • been carefully prepared, after the closest inves tigation, was unanimously accepted l»y the other members of the sub-committee, and, under instructions from the full com mittee, the bill was to-day reported to the House by General Chalmers, and with the accompanying report ordered printed and recommitted. The bill is entitled, an act to complete the Pacific railway system, and for other purposes, and proposes a radical depart ure from all former methods of railroad legislation, and aims to complete the roads mentioned, and aid other projects of pnblic improvement, without entailing any tax upon the people, or involving the Government by the endorsement of rail road bonds. It proposes to restore to the Government 100,500,000 acres of public lands heretofore granted to railroad cor porations, and from their sale at an aver age price of two dollars per acre, torea- lizc $21,000,000, to be constituted a pub lic improvement fund, from which loans are to be made to railroads upon certain prescribed conditions, the Government se curing itselt by first mortgage bonds of the roads availing themselves of the pro visions of the act. Provision is made by the bill not to interfere with homestead entry, and at the same time to deal wuh justice and equity with those corpora tions who lost their legal claims to their land grants during a great financial cri- ■ It provides that land grants made to the Southern Pacific, the Atlantic and Pacific and the Northern Pacific, shall be forfeited to the United States and sold, the proceeds to be covered into the treas ury and set apart as a public improve ment fund, that when either of the above mail service to Brazil, was read a second ms and referred to the Committee on os) offices and Post Roads. The Senate proceeded to consider the calendar bills. In the House, the morning hour having been dispensed with, and the considera tion of private business having been laid aside, Mr. Blackburn, ofKentucky, moved that the House resolve itself into a com mittee of the whole for the consideration of the Star Service deficiency bill, and, pending that motion, moved that all de bate on the billclose at 4.30 o’clock this afternoon. This gave rise to some discus sion; the advocates of the Senate amend ments, as a rule, desiring that debate should close in one hour, for the reason that at 1.30 a number of members were to leave for Philadelphia. Finally,Mr. Black burn’s motion, after being modified so as to close the debate at four o’clock, was adopted, and the House, at 12:40, went into committee of the whole, Mr. Scales,of North Carolina, in the chair, on the Star. Service deficiency bill. Washington, April 2.—Hi the Senate, the hill granting a pension] to Jesse T. Phares, a scout,was advocated by Senators Kirkwood and Caipenter, who thought a jension should bo granted to everybody njured in the military service, and op posed by Senators Logan, Ingalls and Platt, because the pension laws do not cover the cases of scouts. Pending the debate, the mominghour expired. Mr. Bruce, from the special committee on the Freedmen’s Bank, reported back the hill amending the charter of the bank, together with a report of. the'.com mittee’s investigations. Also a bill au thorizing the Secretary of the Treasury to purchase the Freedmen’s Bank building i or the use of the government. Placed on lbs calendar. The Senate resumed the consideration of the bill ratifying the agreement with! theJJtes. Mr. Coke explained and sup ported the bill, the speedy passage of. which was indispensable to prevent troub le with tbe Indians. Mr. Teller made a warrant impeachment, and the seventh mont Railroad, who _ have kept trains on member did not sign either report, not that road, which is principally a coal road, having been able to participate in the in- ■ idle for nearly two months, have accepted vestigation on account of illness. The bill was accompanied by a report of various investigations, the substanee of which has been heretofore published. Atlanta, April 2.—H. Victor New comb, President of the Louisville aud Nashville Railroad, and Colonel DeFu- niak, General Manager, have been in con sultation with Mr. Wadley, of the Geor gia Central Railroad. The party left last night for. Savannah. It is under.tood here that' the differences between their two companies have been settled, and.the. Louisville and Nashville road will aban don the building of the Georgia Western. New York, April 3.—The Associated Press has received by cable returns of the long speech against the. bill, in which he ridiculed the idea of lifting Indians into civilization in a day, by granting them lands in realty. The genius of Jthe Indian was opposed .to individuality, and was suited only to tribal relations. He charged the Indian Bureau with concealing facts, and attempting to direct- attention from its own blunders by charging the miners of 'Colorado with encroaching on Indian reservations'. ■ He favored the re- ffioval of the Indians inUtah to reserva tions, where they would be comfortable and harmless. Mr. Hill, of Colorado, took a different view from his colleague, aud advocated the bill as the best practicable solution of the Indian problem. It opened seventeen - thousand square miles of good land to set tlement, aud would avert a war. He de fended the Secretary of tbe Interior from the charges of his colleague At 1:15 p. m. the Senate adjourned un til Monday. In the House, Mr. Cannon, of Illinois, opposed the Senate amendments to the Star Service appropriation hill, and desired a committee of conference. Mr. Valeutine, of Nebraska, advocated the Senate amendments, as did also Mr. Aiken, of South Carolina, Mr. Belford, of Colorado, and Mr. Haskell, of Kansas. The latter said Mr. Brady had, in the last four years, turned back into the treasury three or four milliou dollars, given him by the Appropriations Committee for mail service, because he could not use it ad vantageously. But in this year, when business had vastly increased, he had rightly yielded to the demand of the peo ple for an increased service. Mr. Hooker, of Mississippi, advocated the Senate amendment, and was opposed to crippling the star service. Mr. Blount, of Georgia, supported the position of the Appropriation Committee, and severely condemned the action of the Post-office Department in striking down the star service, pending an investigation by Congress. Mr. Page, of California, favored the Senate amendments as affording the money necessary to conduct an important ser vice its road, the Segramrv, rtfcBBBTiH take it mortgage bond, payable one-third in ten, one-third in twenty, and one-third in thirty years after date, at three and s Half percent, interest, payable semi-an nually. The bill further provides that the total amount of such first mortgage bonds so is sued shall not exceed the total cost in building and equipping such roads, that moneys accumulated in said improvement fund shall only be appropriated by Con gress for the purpose of aiding in the con struction of railroads and other public works, and as a loan to be so paid with interest. The bill provides for the ap pointment of three commissioners by the President to examine railroads or other property authorized to be constructed, who shall certify that it has been com! pleted iu accordance with the terms of the act of Congress, as a condition precedent to the granting of a loan. The bill fur ther provides that for the future it shall not be effective as to the land grants to the Texas and Pacific until March 3,1882, unless that company shall consent thereto by accepting the provisions of the act. Bids for carrying the mails over the steamboat routes, south of the Potomac and east of the Mississippi rivers, were opened to-day and referred to a commit tee. The awards will be made soon. A delegation of colored men from St. Louis, headed by J. Milton Turner, called on the President to-day, and represented the dissatisfaction of the colored people of Missouri at not having their services to the party recognized. The President said lie favored doing all he could for the col ored people, and exhibited a copy of a let ter dated May 7,1879, to the government officers, directing that no discrimination he made against colored men in the ap pointments to positions undey them. - The Senate committee on railroads gave a hearing to-day to ex-Govemor Brown, of Tennessee, Vice President of the Texas and Pacific Railway Company, in advocacy of the pending bill to extend the time for the completion of its road. The company has built 444 miles of road, at an expense of $27,000,000, and has contracted for the completion of its line to El Paso, an additional distance of 600 miles, by the first of January, 1S83; that upon the completion sf, the line to El Paso, the company willnavaconstructed 882 miles of the main line, and will be operating a total of 1,044 miles, for which it will not have received one acre of land or a dollar of money from the govern ment, although the government enjoys the same privileges over its lines as over those of the Union Pacific and the Cen tral Pacific, which asked liberally from the start. He pointed out that the remainder of the line from El Paso to 'San Diego, is the only portion to which a land grant attaches, and before reaching El Paso, the company will have expended fifty million dollars of private capi ta], and as it only suspended operations in 1873, owing to the panic, and its at tendant consequences, the government should, in all fairness, extend the time fixed by Congress for its completion. Commodore Edward Barrett, United States Navy, is dead. The House Committee. on Military Affairs adopted a resolution to-day, to be reported'to the House, with the request that it be placed upon the army appro priation bill. The resolution is substan tially the same as the one attached to the army hill last year, and provides that no part of the money appropriated by the bill, shall be paid out for transportation of troops to be used as police at polls during elections. Washington, April 2.—In the Senate, on motion of Mr. Beck, it was reso ved that when the Senate adjourns to-day, it be to meet on Monday next. Tbe Vice President laid before the Sen ate a communication from the Secretary of War, recommending an appropriation of fifty thousand dollars for a new military post between Fort Custer and Assini- boine.

The counsel for the Commonwealth were anxious to have the court sit on Saturday,' in hope that Kemble and the rest of the fugitives would appear at that time for sentence, but the court did not see the advisability of such a course. It is generally understood here that if these men appear in the custody of the sheriff, they will be admitted to new bail for their appearance at the session elections in 218 constituencies in Great^-eommencing on the 26th instant, least one hundred thousand dollars. He said seven hundred thousand dollars was enough to carry on the service for the re mainder of the fiscal year, and asserted that the Post-office Department had vio lated the law by expending money in ex cess of the appropriations. Mr. Blackburn, on behalf of the Appro priation Committee, moved to nox-coucur in the Senate amendments. Mr. Stone, of Michigan, acting under the instructions of the Post-office Com mittee, moved to concur, which motion war agreed to, by yeas 88, nays" 79. The committee then arose and reported its ac tion to the House, and the recommenda tion to concur was agreed to—yeas 91, nays 83. • This leaves the bill as it passed the Senate. It appropriates $1,000,000 for the star service for the current fiscal year; prohibits the further expediting of the ser vice on star routes; appropriates $100,000 for new service; forbids the expenditure of the service to exceed fifty per cent. of the original contract price; appropriates $500,000 for public printing, aud provides that nothing in it shall affect the validity or legality of the acts or omissions-of any United States service. The House adjourned until to-mor row. The Senate, in executive session to-day, confirmed B. G. Duncan, of South Caroli na, as Consul at Smyrna, and H. R. Gatchell, of Georgia, as census supervisor for the First Georgia District. Washington, April 2.—James Madi son Wyatt Stone, colored, was hanged here to-day for the murder of his wife in 1879. Stone was a large man, weighing, about two hundred pounds. When the drop fell, his head was severed from the body. The body fell to the ground, and the head, after adhering to the noose for a few seconds, fell to the ground a few feet from the body. Dr. Crook picked up the head, and as he did so, he noticed the lips move. The features were calm. It is supposed that fatness had weakened the muscular tissues, and the neck was unable to bear the weight of the body, r j Washington, April 2.—The Cabinet to-day decided to recommend legis lation looking to the establishment of civil government for Alaska. No other question of public interest was discussed. Senator Wallace, from the select com mittee to enquire, into alleged relection frauds, submitted yesterday a majority re port concerning political assessments, which was made public to-day. The ma jority find that both the letter and spirit of the statute, which prohibits all execu tive officers and employes of the govern ment from soliciting, giving to, or receiv ing from any other employe money for political purposes, have been violated, and that the plain meaning of the President’s celebrated anti-political assessment order has not been obeyed. They inculpate Mr. Gorham, late Sec retary of the Senate, at the same time Secretary of the Republican Congressional Committee, for sending out circulars' to Government employes, urging them to make contributions to aid the Republican party lit 1878: They find that a copy of this circular was sent to eveiy Govern ment employe whose salary exceeded $1,- 000, the amount solicited being usually one per cent, of tbe salary. Tbe whole sum raised by tlie Republican Committee from Federal officials was $98,000 and from other sources $13,000. In 1870 the same move was carried out, but two percentum of the salaries was solicited, aad authority given to the col lectors of the fund of 1878 to enter the Departments in Washington during busi ness bouts to solicit money, aud books were presented to the employes for their subscriptions. Three thousand two hun dred and forty-seven dollars were collec ted from the employes ot tbe Interior De partment alone. Inquiry, made as to the amount received by the Democratic Na tional Congressional Committee in 1678 developed the fact that $4,695 were collec ted from members of Congress and pri vate citizens. ANNAroLis, Maryland, April 2.— The Committee of the House of Delegates to investigate the charges against Judge Pearre, submitted two reports to-day. Three members completely exonerated Pearre, three others say the facts do not Britain, showing that the Liberals have elected 206 members, the Conservatives 122 members, and the Home Rulers 12. The Liberals have gained 58 seats, and lost 17, while the Home Rulers,'so far, show a gain of three seats. PAIUS, April 3.—The Francais affirms that a complete understanding exists be tween the religious confraternities, the Episcopacy imd the leading Conservatives,, regarding resistance to -the decree of the government in relation to unauthorized congregations. The Gazette de France announces that a general meeting will be held to-day of the Supervisors of unauthorized congre- I rations, for the purpose of adopting, a , oint plan of action to which all bodies will conform. London, April 3.—The Times, in a leader on the elections, says tbe first question which arises is what is to be the composition of the jnew cabinet. Lord Hartington, in a rece"nt speech, yeemed to imply that it was in some degree an open question as to who would lead the Liber als. It will be for Lord Beaconsfield to advise the Queen, who is the official chief. The Parliamentary leader of the Liberals is Lord Granville, who has every claim on the ground of past services, rank 'and ability to become Premier. Lord Hartington will hold an important position in the cabinet^ and will lead his party in the House of Commons. Dispatches from Paris, Berlin, Vienna and Rome represent that disappointment and uneasiness are felt in those capitals at the success of the Liberal party in Great Britain, while at St. Petersburg the news is received \vith the utmost delight. The steamer Daniel Steinman, from New York for Antwerp, before reported as spoken under sail, having lost her pro peller. has passed the Lizard on her way to Falmouth. Liverpool, April 3.—This week’s cir cular of the Liveipool Cotton Broker’s Association says: Cotton closed quietly on Thursday, [and re-opened Friday with a limited demand, which was freely supplied. Business has since beenmod- erate, and quotations for some grades are reduced. Bales of American were small, and quotations are generally reduced Jd. In Sea Island business was limited, but prices are without change. Futures opened dull after the holidays and con tinue so,prices showing a decline of l-16d. on last week's quotations. Elizabeth, New Jersey, April 3.— The blacksmiths iu the New Jersey Cen tral Railroad shops have stopped work, determined not to return until the extra hours’ work imposed upon them is with drawn and an increase of ten per cent, is given; It is. feared that the strike among the track men will become general. Over 2,500 men, employed on the track, on Thursday informed the foreman that they would not go to work until the prom ised advance of twenty per cent, is given. The company yesterday ordered ten cents per day extra to be given them, but most of them refused to go to work. Los Vegas, New Mexico, April 8.—- This evening two desperadoes, David Rudburgh and John Allen, entered the jail here, shot and fatally wounded the jailer, and attempted to rescue a prisoner named Webb, under sentence of death for mhrder. The would-be rescuers were scared off before they could accoiftftUsk .11, • , i —rr—-p-wl 1 certainly be lynched. Washington, April 3.—The House met this morning, Mr. Carlisle fn the chair, for debate only, and immediately went into committee of the whole on the state of the Union. ■ Mr. Covert, of New York, addressed the committee on the subject of the re vision of the tariff. He had voted the other day to refer the Townslicnd bill to the Committee on Ways and Means, not because he was not in favor of a revision of the tariff, but because he had thought that that was the committee which, under the rule, had jurisdiction over the subject. He argued especially in favor of a reduc tion of the duty on steel rails, and in fa vor of placing chrome ore on the free list, but though he desired a revision of the ta riff, he desired it made-in a legitimate, orderly way, and would therefore oppose any project looking to the appointment of a commission on the subject of tariff revis ion. Washington, April 3.—In the House, Mr. Houk, of Tennessee, replied to the speech made some time ago by Sir. House, of Tennessee, in which that gentleman had opened theTildeR campaign, and had so forcibly reiterated the ancient cry of fraud. He denied that the gentleman had expressed the sentiments of the people of Tennessee. If Le had expressed that of his party, his speech would stand as a lasting monument to the vitiated taste and malignant bate of that party. The country was told that there had been no loyalty in the South during the war, aud it had been told that by the copperheads of the North—the most venomous ser pents in the wortd. He asserted that there had been many loyal -men in the South, and that that section had furnished the Federal army with nearly half a million men. It seemed that this service was to be for gotten, and the Tilden campaign prosecu ted on the policy that friendship to the Union was to be regarded as a badge of political infamy and social dishonor. His colleague (Mr. House) had attacked the President. He would not attempt to defend the President, for that officer needed no defense. For his colleague to assert that President Hayes had been inaugurated by fraud, was equivalent to making th) ad mission that the Democratic party had been brave enough in 1861 to force a war without a cause, but too cowardly to do, so in’ 1877, when it said that the President had been count ed in. by uncondonabie fraud. Hew had the mighty fallen! What had come over the spirit of the chivalrous Democra cy of the South? He then tamed his at tention to the political assessment bill, ridiculing the present civil service system, and referring in the course of his remarks to George William Curtis as the prince of political humbugs, arid to Secretary Schurz as the king of civil service reform. Mr. Lowe, of Alabama, spoke in oppo sition to the funding bill. He had always had Democratic sympathies, but he de clared here and now that of the two old factions, high tariff and hard money Dem ocrats, were not to be preferred to hard money and high tariff Republicans. The committee rose, and the House at four o’clock adjourned. New York, April 3.—A special to an evening paper, from Reading, Pa., says: “The people of Honeybrook township, Chester county, are in a terrible state of alarm over the depredations of a band of marauders, who are burning their bams and driving off their stock. The marau ders robbed the county schoolhouse of a large Bible, nailed it to a tree and posted a notice, with a skull and cross bones at tached, stating that if they were followed up to make arrests, fearful desolation would at once follow. A number of the members of the community have had their horses and cattle poisoned. . Chicago, Aprils.—The Chicago Times proposes to introduce a new feature in the publication of newspapers. It is making preparations to vary the size of its sheet every day, according to the amount of news it has to publish. If forty-eight columns are needed, it will have a forty- eight column sheet. If it has ninety col umns of news and other essential matter, a ninety column paper will appear. By this means, the Pones expects to avoid the necessity of printing triple or quadruple sheets when additional space is needed. Piedmont, West Virginia, April 3.— The strikers on the Cumberland and Pied- Washington, April 3.—The Donelly- Waslibume case bids‘fair to lead to new and unexpected complications. Mr. Springer, chairman of .the House Com mittee on Elections, has received a letter from Representative Manning, stating that he proposed specific charges against him (Springer) affecting the motives which actuated his course and determined his vote in the case, and will on Monday call the attention of the House to the matter, and ask for a thorough investiga tion. In conversation to-day, while declining to express his opinion as to the true cause or animus of this attack upon the integrity of ibis conduct, Mr. Springer sta ted that at the proper time he should show to his colleagues and the country that his vote upon the Douelly-Wash- bume case was strictly in accordance with his convictions, and that no shadow of foundation exists for any charge or insinu ation of corrupt .motives or improper in fluences. General Gibson, of Louisiana, has re ceived a petition forwarded to him by the bar and. leaning merchants of New Or leans, without regard to party,asking some increase of salary for the United States District Judge of that district. The pe tition sets forth that an extraordinary amount of business of all kinds within Federal jurisdiction, is constantly crowd ed upon the judge, making his labor more severe than is usual with district judges. London. April 3.—A correspondent of the Times at Berlin says he has good rea sons for stating that in the highest official circles the prospect of a Liberal victory iu the Parliamentary elections in England is regarded with no small fear and trem bling. The universal belief in Germany is that the peace of. Europe would be much more assured under a Tory than unde^-a Whig Government. The St. Petersburg correspondent ofthe Standard states that a document bearing on the judicial aspect of the Nihilist Hart mann, will shortly be sent to Paris with a note to Premier Defreycinct only, and that if after this the French Government shows a conciliatory disposition, it is not improbable that Prince Orloff will return to Paris as Ambassador, after the Russian Easter Holidays. New York, April 3.—At a Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church, held here to-day, six gentlemen were elected to deacon’s orders, and one to elder’s orders.

The druggist re fused to sell it, fearing prosecution under the Prohibition law. The man declared the liquor was for his wife, who had been taken violently ill, and might die unless she got it; so he was given a small quanti ty. He was really a temperance spy, and on the following day had the dealer ar rested. The Irish Famine Fund.—The New York Herald’s Irish relief fund now ag gregates $318,394, and subscriptions are still coming in, Mr. H. J.

It was also resolved to ask the House to cause ten thousand copies of the report of the Commission, to be printed for general distribution. A New Disease. • A Geneva correspondent of the London Times announces great mortality among the workmen and horses employed in the St. Gothard Tunnel, from the generation of a worm in the intestines—the result of the bad air of the tunnel. This disease has increased wonderfully in the past six menths, as the workmen at either end penetrate toward the - centre, and so get into a worse atmosphere, further vitiated by peipetual explosions and the smoke of 500 oil lamps. The temperature ranges from 80 to 95. ' Seventy to eighty per cent, of the men suffer from this complaint, with an average mortality of about thirty per cent, per annum. The horses drop dead as if struck by a bullet, and the average life of the horse in the tunnel does not exceed four months. Some of the Swiss papers challenge these state ments of the savants as exaggerated, hut their general truth is not denied. A Eefreshine Season From on High. The protracted meetings in the First Baptist and Mulberry Street Methodist Churches were continued through the past week and were well attended. In the former, Dr. Warren brought the ex ercises to a close on Friday night, after a general and profitable awakening among his membership aud a dozen or more .hopeful conversions. In the Methodist Church Dr. Rivers continued his labors with great fervor and success until Saturday morning. Laige numbers flocked to the sanctuary daily, aud the interest has steadily deepened. So much has the faithful pastor, Dr. Key, been encouraged by the manliest presence of the Holy Spirit, that he has determined to prolong the exercises through the en suing week, and it is hoped that a great and precious revival, under the Divine blessing, will follow. The people of both of the above congregations seem greatly stirred up, and much good has already been accomplished. Delicious Strawberries.—One of the editors of the Telegraph acknowl edges tne reception at his residence of sev eral quarts of large and finely flavored strawberries, from Mr. ; P. Sullivan, of yineviile, whose berries cannot be sur passed by any sent to market. The re cent rain will greatly improve the size and quality of the strawberry crop in this vi cinity. ‘ MACON’S TRADE. / jiB — Dry Goods, Shoes ana XEata. We challenge any city of equal popula tion ia the United Slates, to show up such a trade as that done by Macon in the dry goods, shoe and hat line. Her vast ware houses stand upon every street, and throughout them may be seen at all sea sons throngs of employes busily engaged in selling, packing and shipping. Her traveling agents traverse every county of Georgia,Tlorida and Alabama, and in every jobbing city of the .North her merchants may be found. It is not a ques tion of thousands, hut of millions. For tunes have been made and laid aside, hundreds of families have been kept and supported on it, and through all other branches of business the touch, the influ ence of this mighty trade in dry goods is felt. Yesterday, a reporter called upon the principal houses in the city to try and ar range some schedule by which a correct estimate of this business could be obtain ed. The figures which follow, are take from the estimates placed upon last year’s business, and not upon this, though had the latter been done, the figures would have been largely in our favor. It was found impossible, too, to separate the dry goods from the hat and shoe trade, so we give them all combined: St. T. Coleman & Co., sales $1,000,000; employes 28; drummers 6. . W. A.

One little girl said she always thought it was a great big ani mal and she guessed she’d seen one at a show. “Oh,” the teacher said, “a hypo crite is a man who makes believe to he real good when he isn’t. Sometimes a man will give a lot of money to a church just to make people think that he is better than anybody else.” “Well, my papa aint a hypocrite,” spoke up a little girl in the corner of the' seat, “for he only gives a penny every Sunday.” Mb. Edmunds and the Presiden tial Nomination.—Senator Edmunds is reported by his friends to he extremely averse to a Presidential nomination for himself. He is even, it is said,' inclined to write a public letter declaring his refu sal to accept the nomination. Iu a con versation with Senators on the subject he is reported to have exclaimed;— “I am absolutely opposed to it. I see not a single feature in the Presidential office which would please me.” “What!” said Senator Hoar, “not even the power to veto Dills?” At which home thrust at his well known take SIMMONS’ LIVER REGULATOR!

That the business of the Macon office is steadily increasing, is conclusively shown by the official record. In the sale of stamps, envelopes, and postal cards, the increase in the quarter ending September 30th, 1879, over that ofthe same quarter ofthe preceding year, was 6.45 per, cent.; 'feo^nt^rarease'overriiat of 1878 was 12.64, and in the quarter ending March 31st, 1880, the increase over that of 1879 was 18.04. This is a good showing for Macon, it being in most respects an index to the increase of our commercial busi ness. The free delivery system works smooth ly; yesterday being the first day of a new quarter, many more of our citizens gave up the lock box system and left orders for their mail to be delivered.

The New York Bulletin hat a statement showing that, from the 1st of September last until the 25th ult., nearly 3,000 miles have been actually constructed, and 12,651 miles projected. Total construction and projection, fifteen thousand six hundred and twenty-five miles.

After the reporter had been skillfully dislodged from his ulster, he was per mitted to join in the revel, which he did with infinite zest, keeping time to the music throughout the midnight hours, and climbing aboard the homeward bound train only after exhausted nature began to assert her claims. Though given in the name of Hawkins- ville, this festival attracted many from distant points. Macon, Montezuma. Cochran, Lougstreet, Henderson, and the adjoining counties, sent representatives to grace the occasion. A full list of the la dies present could not be obtained, bu among those present, were Misses Juhan, Greer, Johnson and Einstein, of Macon; Misses Walker and Jordan, of Long- street; Misses Booth and Cochran, of Cochran; Miss Lamar, of Montezuma; Miss Sandlin, of Henderson, and Misses Henry, Hudsbeth, Anderson, Pate, Tay lor, Watkins, Tooke, Henley, Bohannon, Peurifoy, Crcamor, Royal, Kendrick, Benibry, Fenn, Coffee and O’Brien, of Hawkinsville. Kessler’s band, of Macon, was present, and furnished the music. This ball was planned and carried out by Mr. J. B. Hess, of Hawkinsville, and was intended as a dedication of Lewis’ new hall. It was a success in every res pect, and a source of much pleasure to all participants. A Washington special to the Cincinnati Gazette, (Republican), says that promi nent Republicans have been aware for some weeks that a movement is on foot to make a second Republican nomination iu case General Grant is successful at Chica go.

Feminine Fancies and Fashionable FolUes. Roman braid is worn chiefly by ma trons, and is peculiar in shape, rising quite high in the middle andtapering off rapidly at the sides. Short curls, though not sought after to any great extent, are f?shionable,.and are sometimes allowed to hang from a high coiffure, or mixed in with a low one, as may seem desirable. The use of very, cheap false hair should be discouraged. Finger pufis at fifteen cents apiece are not worth wearing. The practice of bleaching the hair or changing its natural shade to any other by the use of chemicals, is barbarous. It ^is also dangerous.

Decorate with jewels, paintings, carvings, and embroidery, as may suit the owner’s taste. Something to carry in the hand, rather than something to fan with, is the ruling idea.
