Canes Mcansa Statistics.—Vermont pro tests against the seventy-three murders set down to her account by the census enumerators, and aaya they were committed in Virginia. Bat, if so, who shipped these ready-made murders to the Green Mountain BUts ? Let Vermont off. Her *t a * never sets—the never murders any body. Bot when in the lapse of time affairs take s turn, and somebody gets hold of the pnb- lio purso and sword who feels it to bo bis inter- rot to blacken Vermont, what security has she that a thousand murders a year will not be charged to her? Tbo Charleston Daily Republican, of Taro- day, says ‘‘Sarah Brown stole s muslin dress to be baptised in on Sunday last, and was trans ferred to the city jail for thirty days by Trial Justice Magralh yesterday." Ethiopian to the last degree. The potato rot in Ireland threatens in some counties the loss of folly nine-tenths of that im portant esculent.

James Beecher, who is the locum tenens of bis brother Henry Ward, during the vacation, held forth to Ply mouth Church on Sunday, on the Christian duty of permitting Chinese immigration. Beecher instated they were temperate, industrious, perse vering, peaoroble, tolerent and cleanly. He had had five yean intercourse with them. Tn* Dibectiox or the Sroav is a source of mnob controversy. We see the Telegraph local had it from the North, and one of the editors on the other page stated it blew from tbo South east. The troth is, the wind veered a good deal. The blaats soemod to come from different points; bnt in tho early part of the storm the genenl point from whieh they eame seemed to the writer to be E. S. E., while towards night they had plainly abifted to about N E. Damage vbom the Stoum — All day yesterday rumors and reports of disaster from tbe storm were life, bnt, as usual, we hope they will be found to be considerably exaggerated. The railways, with tbo single exception »< tbe Macon and Western, have sustained serious injury bnt to bow great an extent is not known at this writing. We fear that the TxLxaiurn will be cut off from • good many reader* for several days. It is reported that a week will be re qnirod to repair tbe breaks in tbe Mseon and Augusts Hoad. Tbe crops bare, no doubt, unstained great injaty. Cotton exposed to the besvy rain and furious blasts, is no donbt s good deal stained and beaten ont. Corn on the lowlands and bottoms has probably been submerged and a good deal of it rained.

Tbe Cauroaxu Election.—It seems thst the Democrats have been whipped in Califor nia by two or three thousand majority against them. In I8t!9 the Democrats carried the State by seven or eight thousand. That is not pretty at alh Fast jut Nao.—Goldsmith Maid made jester- day to San Francisco the fastest time on the American trotting record*. She made three miles in 6:57}, and one of them in 2:17.

Tbo proprietor cut it down yesterday and calls tho great wonder a mam moth humbug.” Eveby Democratic county convention held in Pennsylvania lias nominated Gen. W. 8. Han- oook for President to 1872. will Ban as the Itadlcnl Candidate. We are not at all astonished to learn that Mr. Tinley has consented to run for tbe Senate from this district as the Bsdieal or negro candidate, and, aa one of their leaders in this city says, “upon their platform." What that moans, we all know only too well. Wo are also informed that Mr. Tinley was a willing, if not anxions ap plicant for the honor to the convention that nominated him. This, therefore, settle* his claims to be considered ,a Democrat even of tbe moat milk and water variety, and he now stands just where we hypothetically put him on Wednesday, viz: Allowing himself to be used as a Badiesl tool, anil, therefore, no better than a BadicaL Now, are the white men of this district, and the honeet, square black men of the district go ing to pnt such a man in office? He can be beaten, and he must be beaten. We repeat it, he must be beaten. If the honest voters of this district, through apathy or. any other cause, stay away from the polls, this result cannot be achieved. All we sak it afnll torn ont, and tbe game is ours. It is not a very busy time, now* and every man can spare one day to vote and work for our candidate. Friends, we conjure yon to turn ont. One vote in the Senate next winter maybe worth millions to the plundered tax payers of Georgia. It may carry forward, or defeat reforma that will relieve the awful burden of taxation that to now weighing ns down. In this fight every man, no matter what his color, has a personal interest. Mr. Tinley, whether he so intends or not, in consenting to become the Bsdieal candidate, stands forth as the champion and endorser of all the plundering and corruption that the reoent State Boad in vestigations are bringing to light. If he true to his backers, he cannot be expected to take any active part in exposing tbe enormous frauds of the Bullock administration. That was Bsdieal work, and it ia not likely that fiad- ical hands will busy themselves very much In showing np its iniquity. Ool. Simmons, on the other hand, ia tbe candidate of reform, of honesty, of retrenchment and economy. He will do his level best, if elected, to expose all tbe extravaganoo and corruption that has ao seriously crippled the tax payers of Georgia, and lend his hearty aid towards making sneh things impossible in the fntnre. Now, where is tbe Democrat or white man, at least, that can hesitate between these two? And for that matter, where ia the honest black man who does not belong to a few stuck np mulatloes in this eity, and can say his soul is his own, who don't see that his trae interest is to vote for Colonel Simmons ? If the white men will turn ont, and the black men will think for themselves and be men, snre enough, they'll win a grand victory, and accomplish groat good for them selves and tbe State. Health ol Charleston. We copy elsewhere an article from the Charles, ton Conner of the 5tb instant, which fully sus tains the ideas we have heretofore expressed in regard to the existence of yellow fever in that eity. No donbt some few eases of a malignant type of malarial fever have occurred there, growing out of the filth end dilapidation of oer- tain localities wherein these cases have origina ted. Charleston, since tho war, has been ruled by a terrible set of vagabonds, black and white, solely in the interests of what they can steal; and every sanitary regulation and precantion has been neglected. But notwithstanding this fact, and notwith- standing the alleged existence of yellow fever, tbe Courier's mortuary returns show that the city ia remarkably healthy—more healthy than she was last summer when no fever was com plained of—and probably quite as healthy as any city of her sixe on the continent. For tbe week ending August 20th, 1870, there were 34 deaths, and for the next week 47, while for the week ending 26th Augnst, 1871, there were only 27 deaths «**d this out of a total population very little short of fifty thousand! Neither New York, Philadelphia, Boston, Baltimore, or Chi cago, can show so light a proportional bill of mortality at any season of tbe year. Under these circumstances,Charleston is the victim of n bad name merely, and there is little sense in tbe talk and panic abont her sanitary condition. Which Knows Beat ? General Hawley, of the Hartford (Conn.) Conran!, a violent Bsdieal paper, has issued a circular letter in reply to tbe Beast’s recent at tacks upon him at 8pringfie!d and Worcester, Mass., the oonelnding paragraph of which is as follows: I think General Bntler the most reckless, un scrupulous, dangerous demagogue this country his seen since Aaron Burr, and it is to me a pa triotic doty and high pleasure to oppose him. There is satisfaction in the reflection that a man with such a bole in his head where the moral faculties ought to be, cannot have good judg ment or real shrewdness. Ho may make a good deal of trouble, bnt be will kill himself. He might succeed in Paris as Robespierre and Bochefort succeeded, but he is a monstrosity in New England. Per contra, as to whether or not the Beast ia a “monstrosity in New England,” we read that at the meeting of tbe Massachusetts State Tem- peranoe Alliance at Boston, last Wednesday week, the Bev. D. Marvin thought “they ought to have some sympathy for General Bntler for tho manner in whieh bo bad smitten tiie news papers, against whieh the temperanoe men had to contend, and he believed that Gen. Bntler, by striking against combinations and newspa pers, bad opened np tbe way for tbe temperanoe oanse. He wanted a man to vindicate tbe right in the State House, and free it from combina tions and rings. If General Duller treat in as Governor he mould be backed up by all of the Christian men of the State." As to who is the most credible witness on this point, we leave every man to judge for himself. Bnt onr deoided opinion is that Marvin is mnch the best authority. He knows, as the country does, that the Beast is tbo best living represen tative of tbo Massachusetts of the present day, and that with him as Governor of that onoo honored Commonwealth, the eternal fitness of things will have rooeived the moat signal illus tration of the century.

From the Damon Journal, 7th.] On Monday night last, about half past eleven o'clock fire was seen proceeding from the rear of the store occupied by E. A. Bicb, and imme diately tho alarm was given. By the time an efficient force had arrived at the scene of desolation the flames bad so far advanced as to render the saving of tbe build ings in tbe Loyless block an impossibility, and efforts were made to save the gends alone. Be ginning at Crouch's corner as many goods as Msaibly could he, were removed from every loose in advance of the fire, until its progress was arrested at the next oorner, the bnilding on which was oocnpied by T. J. Hart aa a carriage shop. Tbe losses in merchandise excepting J. H. Croneb, E. A. Bicb, Dr. J. B. Janes. Knott £ Peeples, Crim Jt Tucker and T. J. Hart, were principally caused by the removal of goods, all or nearly all being removed in advance of tbe fire. An estimate of these Josses as well as those on the opposite side of the street, slso caused by removal, cannot be given at this writing. A rough estimate of losses in property with amonnt of insnranoe is ms follows: Bnilding oocnpied by J. XL Croneb, belong ing to H. Rogers, and valued at SI,500; no in surance. Building oocnpied by E. A. Rich, J. W. Johnson and B. 0. Peeples, and belonging to E. G. Brown, Eeq., valued at $3,500; no in surance. Building occupied by and belonging to Dr. J. R. Janes, and valued at SI,200; no in surance. Building oocnpied by and belonging to Crim £ Tucker, raised at $1,500; no in surance. Bnilding occupied by JV. Wooten, T. J. Hart and Loyless £ Griffin, and belong ing to the Utter firm, valued at $2,500; in sured for $2,000. Buildings belonging to Mr. T. J. Hart, and oocnpied by him as a carriage and blacksmith shop, rained at $1,000; no in surance. The large warehouse belonging to Jones £ Harper, and valued at $2,000; no in surance. Besides the leases in goods not yet summed np, a Urge amonnt of gnano, corn, baoon, salt, bagging, etc., belonging to Messrs. Crim £ Tucker, Knott £ Peeples, and others, was destroyed in the store room of the ware- boose, none of which was insured. Nor did the damage stop hero; for the street was so nar row, and so great vros the fear that the build, ings on tho opposite side would tie eonsmned, that more or leas of tho goods on tho opposite block were removod, and besides being sub jected to the ravages of the light fingered gen- try presented a mass of dry goods, groceries, dates, hardware, printers’ pie, etc. Among the principal losers on the opposite side from the fire were Messrs. Lee £ Brothers, hardware dealers, whose iron house was on the aide that waa burned. A yo Ung lady at tlio Ohio camp meeting asked tho prayers of* the assembly because she oould not set her eyes upon a certain young man in her neighborhood without feeling as though she must hog him to death. A Delaware peach-grower who last week shipped 500 baskets of fruit to New York, cleared three centa over freights and commis sions. THE (JEOKtilA VRKSS. Twenty shares of Georgia Bailroad stock sold in AngnaU, on Tuesday, for $99 a share. A train on the Charleston and Savannah Bail- road ran over the body of a negro man Monday night. The supposition is that the negro bad been murdered, and his body afterwards placed on the track. The Savannah News informs us thst “Gov ernor Hoffman has appointed Hon. A. O. Ba con, of Macon, Hon. George HUlyer, of Atlan ta, Joseph P. Carr, Esq., of Augusta, and CoL H. D. Capers, of tbU city, Commissioners of Deeds for the State of New York in Georgia.” Mayor Screven, of Savannah, has appointed Messrs. Edward C. Anderson, Henry Brigham, and Wm. 8. Bassenger delegates to represent that city in the Southern Commercial Conven tion, which meets at Baltimore on the 25th instant. The News reUtro the following Mayor’s Court incident: There was a character in the Mayor’s Court- room yrotetday, who, notwithstanding tbe fact that he was charged with the rather serions of fense of violating the city ordinance, and was even then in presence of the angnst magistrate who U sworn to paniah all offenders and vioU- tersof the Uw, was rather provokingly mirthful. When told that he would hive to pay ten dollars or to go to jail for fifteen days, he arose and in a voice of great solemnity said, “I thank your Honor, I do; faith, thin, an your Honor is peifect gintleman; I got off light; I thought wonld be thransported. The Ute rains have greatly damaged the cot ton crop of Burke and adjacent counties. The rust has attackedfhe plant, and it ia also rapidly shedding its fruit. Bailroad communication having been sus pended between Charleston and Savannah, the mails are now sent by way of Augusta. Augusta “calculates that she can carry through her canal enlargement project for $371,000, and leave a fair margin for the contractors besides Messrs. Brown £ Haekett havo not leased the Screven House, Savannah, as we announced few days since. Tho locals down there seem be playing the gtme of now yon see it and now yon don't see it. The monthly oonrt-honae sales at Augusta and Savannah, on Tnesday, were not any great shakes. At the former place, some real estate changed bands at moderate prioes. Horses and moles brought very low figures. The Savannah News, of Wednesday, prints the following letter: Office of the Boabd of Health, 1} Beaufort, S. 0., September 4, 1871. Editor Morning Ncrne: For the information of the pnblie, and for the purpose of eorrectinf false and exaggerated reports which have fount place in the pnblie press, respecting yellow fever in Beaufort, I wonld say, wo have had only five eases of yellow fever, two of which proved fatal, the remaining three are convalescing rapidly. No now eases have been reported for the last ten days. With tbo present favorable change of atmosphere, and with the advantages of strict sanitary and quarantine regnlations which we now enjoy, no fears are entertained by onr citi zens of the fever becoming an epidemic. Tbe general health of onr city is remarkably good, and onr sanitary condition was never bet ter. Jas. M. Cbofct, Chairman Board of Health. They haves “new (matrimonial) departure”in Atlanta.

Atlanta Public Schools.—5Vo are pleased to give to onr readers the important intelligence that a system of pnblio schools for Atlanta may now be looked upon as almost an accomplished foot. Tho Board of Education have elected B. Mall on, of Savannah, Superintendent. His du ties will oommenoe on the 15th of November. The schools will be opened on the first of Janua ry next. By that time three school booses, of a oapaeity to accommodate fonr hundred pupils each, will be completed. Wo are pleased to learn that Mr. Mallon has resigned bis position in tbo pnblie schools in Savannah, and has ac cepted the position tendered him here. The United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia commences its fall term next Monday at Atlanta. There are 473 cases on the docket, of which 246 are crim inal.

A Living Head on a rnralyxctl Hotly— ■low lie Keeps olT tho Flies. From tbo fit. Louis Times, August 31.] Near Glenwood, Iowa, resides James T. An derson, aged twenty-six. Three years ago ho diod from his neck downward. His head, bow- over, is alive, and more vigorous and active than before the body, which it once governed, ceas ed to be vital. At the age of two James' father died, and his mother soon married again. At the age of three he was tossed several times by an angry oow. Shortly afterward, while he was eating bread and milk, a rattlesnake joined him, and when the two had finished his snake- ship made his bow and retired. At five years old a horse ran away with him, and made for a stable, across tbe entrance of which was a bar. The horse reached in under a bar, and bis mother seized him just in time to save his life. He grow np active and strong, and was fond of sports. He became a good gymnast. James, at tbe time of tbe accident that left bim with a dead body and a living bead, was a fine, handsome young man. He weighed two hundred pounds, and there was not an ounce of snperflaoiu fle.-h on his body. Ono afternoon, when on a visit to an ancle at Glenwood, Iowa, be was exercising on a pole placed from one tree to another in a back yard. He had on a pair of gaiters tipped with patent leather. He swung down from the pole by bis feet; the leather slipped and he feU. He struck bis neck just where it joins the shoulders. He was bewildered, but perfectly conscious. His body felt as though mashed to a jelly. He ex perienced a horrible tingling, and when the doc tor came he told him not to touch him as his body was broken to pieces. His neck was bro ken ; inflammation set in, all thought his end was come. To the surprise of ell, in a few days he began to mend. He was shortly after re moved to his stepfather’s house, where he still resides. Time hung heavily on his hands, and he re solved to learn to write with his mouth. He accomplished this, and, as he says in a letter to Mr. J. K. Nutting, he soon wrote a tolerably good mouth. He Is now trying to paint, and hopes by this means to earn something for his support. He has been, and still is, tenderly cared for by his sister, herself a cripple, and speaks in the highest terms of his stepfather, who, though a poor man, has shown him every kindness. His worst enemies are the flies, which buzz abont his face. He holds a leafy twig in his mouth, however, and manages to twirl it abont in a wonderful way and drive off his tormenters. This case is without a parallel, except that of John Garter, of England, who was injured in a similar way, and who became a famous painter. Mayob Hall and Coufxeollee Connolly to Design.—New York dispatches of the 5th to the Western papers, contain the following: The great coup against Tammany is abont to be struck within Tammany. Peter B. Sweeny and Governor Hoffman bare been in consulta tion. and the fiat has gone forth that Hall and Connolly will be compelled to resign, and an (id interim Mayor is to be chosen, and either A. T. Stewart or John A. Dix will be Hall's successor. The plan proposed by Ottendorfer at tlie meeting this evening gives only in part the programme decided upon by the honest members of Tammany. There will be no eleotion for a Constitutional Convention to make a new city charter, bnt the committee appointed at the meeting this even ing will select eminent citizens as members of a volunteer convention. The convention is to frame a new charter, to be presented to the Legislature in January next, «&id Legislature having been previously pledged to vo»e for any charter thua presented by the City of New York* By thus conciliating tbe masses the Tammany leaders have no fears of the result in the State in November. There can be no doubt that Mr. Sweeny will show himself to be tbe most acute of all tho politicians in bringing Tammany ont of its present trouble*. The rank and file are satisfied to lose Hall and Connolly, as their sacrifices must be made to appease the public clamor.
