These letters are and commonplace to a palnfnl degree. They read as If written under a money pressure and from the standpoint of a contract to spin many columns at ao mnoh a column.

The Spanish government ic now in the bands of a minority of even the Bepnb lfein party by the snfleranoe of the majority, who abstained from tha ballot in the vain hope of quieting the Irreconcilable!. It lx wielded by the so called Federal Bepnbtioane, while no donbt the Conservative Bepnblieana hold the majority. On the one hand, the Conservatives hold the Kadieal government iu distrnst and oentempt, and on the other, it has to deal with a legicn of howling opponents in the shape of rede, internationals and communists. This in its own household. Outside of the so- called Bepnblioan family are other legions of opponents working in the dark—the royalist ad herents of d.ffarent claimants to tha throne— end in the field sre ihe Cartiets, the only really vigorous and united opposition, who have Hang down the gsnntiet and proclaimed their determination to conquer the way to supremacy. The prestige of opposition is alt with the Csrliits—they are united, deter mined, daily galniDg adherents, winning suo- oeaaes and makiDg progress generally. It aeem» to na. therefore, that Ihe Oarliita hold ont jn- cow the only avenna of escape to Spam, from the hon-ora of mere anarchy. Bnt the Oarliats are the embodiment of reaction and will carry Spain back to the 15 b century. Whether their regime will be much tetter than anarchy, we are unable to aay. And as we foreshadowed of Cuba, the old disoord-crippled and bankrnpt mother oonntry Soda herself daily less and leas able to oope with the lnonrrectlon in the gem of the Antilles. The Spanish anthoritfea in Cabs are dally draw log in their ontpoata and abandoning the coun try to the rebels. The recent acquisition of Improved arms and supplies to tha Cuban patriots will give them new activity and power, and ne treat the summer will wind up finding them in poeaeesion of moat of the island except the more important towns. THE GEORGIA PKEJUL The Drawl.* of the (treat Kentucky La(< levy—The Lottery System Generally and Its Effects. Mention baa already been made of the for tunate or rather nnfortnnate results of this *>uga gambling mill, whose revolutions were watched with snob breathless attention by thou sands. The.Lonlavilte Commercial of tho 9;h instant, devotes almost an entire page to the pnblioa- tion of the lncky numbers, and gives quite a thrilling aooonnt of the drawing. One poor woman who “had invested all her money in six quarter tickets,” fainted when it was anconDced that aha had drawn bnt ten dollars. Another gentleman who was tho owner of only one quar ter ticket paid 75 tor the extras published, and aat np until midnight, bnt to learn be bad drawn a blank. The excitement among the people la repre sented to have been intense, and thousands upon thousands of the silly and oroduloua found their hard earniDgs which bad been expended for tickets, gone “where the woodbino twinolb." One silly Irishman, who bonght a quarter tio- ket, fearing that other partien might get posses, alon of the three remaining quarters and anatch the prize from him, bonght them himself and tore them up. The whole ticket drew $1000, and aa he coaid not produce bnt a single quar ter, was paid of oourae only $220. This son of Erin was ready, about then, to smash all the orockery in Cork. It is difficult to oonceive of anything more demoralizing to a people, than these huge legal gambling machines, which praotic'ally'disconn- tenanoe honest and patient labor, end offer a premium to idleness and speculation. If the uninitiated would only make a study of tbo doctrine of chances as laid down in logtoal works, they wonld learn that tha prospect of drawing a prize is almost infinitesimally email. Indeed it la about equal to tho hope some day being left the sole heir of a foreign million aire, who you had never even heard of. Look around for an instant and oonnt the scores npon soores of acqnaintanoej who hsve all their lives been Investing in lottery tickets, and find one, you oan, who Is any the richer for it And ts true, too, that money gotten thns is easily parted with, and aoidom proves of any substan tial benefit- Bnt the chief injury is to tho rising genera tion. In tho sweat of tby face, it u pro claimed in holy writ, shall thon cat thy bread. Bnt tho lottery says buy a ticket and yonr for tune is made, and caso and independence as- anrod withont effort. Hence idleneas and un rest among those who are jnst starting in life, and temptation to resort to the gamiDg table as means of subsistence. How bard to realize that plodding Industry and strict integrity are the only oertain and honorablo paths to respec tability and fortune! The only stain resting npon the proud escutcheon of our noble com monwealth, is the miserable policy which promptod her to divide by lottery, that rtoh domain which, properly husbanded, wonld have node her great indeed, and relieved her people from the burden of taxation for an indefinite period. And the folly of the act, aside from moral considerations. Is' made denbly apparent in the fact, that those sought to be benefitted, re ceived indeed but little aid from the distribu tion. In a very short time, nearly all Ihe lends ihas disposed of wore in the poaaeaelon of specu- aiora and jobbers, who bought them up for a more song. The poor man would take the first offer, however low, for his “lot,” and content himself with the reflection that it cost him nothing. It is high time that gambling of every de scription was made a penal offenoe. Bnt never can this vice be effeotnally cheeked, while these immense lottery schemes, which are only an other form of gambling by tha wholesale, are tolerated by law, and patronized by the best citizens of the oonntry. That Big Editorial Staff. Our contemporary, the Atlanta Constitution, boasts of having the largest editorial staff of any paper in the South, and double (soon to bo treble) the circulation of any competitor In that “region of country.” We don’t pretend to join issue with it on either of these proposi tions, for we have known similar assertions re peated in substance time and again, even when the jonma 1 making them was “on its last legs.” That crowd of editors surely, however, do not have regard for a proper “division of labor,” or they xroald be more careful of their exoerpts from other papers. In a lata iasne, referring to Mrs. Boykin's elegant parlor concert, they class Mrs. Bacon, Mrs. Hunter, Mrs. Wells and Mias Boifenillet as larytones, all of thorn. They also place the oonoert nude; the direction of Prof. Czurda, and then, to cap tho climax, credit the Txnx- ar.irn asp Messenozh with these statements. The Professor is an accomplished musician, and performed his part deftly and well on that oo eaaion, bnt be will tell you that Mrs. Boykin was the sole direotress of the evening. Now, good brothers, which one of yon Is responsible for this? In sneb a multitude of counsellors, accuracy at least onght to be the resnlt. Jr a healthy appetite is good for the brain, bow clever ought the young ladies of Vasaar to be ? The steward of the oollege is said to order generally about 122 pounds of steak for break fast, and 200 pounds of beef or melton for din ner. The fair students consume between 270 and 220 quarts of milk daily, and from 72 to 100 poonda of batter. Half a barrel of sngar, six pounds of coffee, and three nr four pounds of tern ore need every day. Daring warm weather they have iee cream twice a week, and each Ume 1(0 quarts la the allowance. The quantity of fruits, vegetables, eto., correspond to three figure*. There ore now six excellent row boats on the lake, which are almost con stantly ooeupied dating the day by tits yonng student*. Thx Atlanta Constitution of yesterday eays there was not a death from cholera in Chmtte- nooga the day before, but four deaths from otter causes. The doctors report a great many ease* of dysentery and think the city will be sickly all the summer. Tex Albany News of Friday reports a heavy rain in that section Tuesday night, and with occasional showers, Dongberty county will make the beavieot corn crop sinoe the war. Colujcbus la “ont” about $3,500 on ihe Louis ville lottery and didn’t draw a prize. Parsons hod tiokets who it wax thought wonld feint at the bare idea of any epecies of gambling.

On Monday night last, John H. Shark slford's store in Lawrenoevilie was robbed of $320 in money. Tmt ‘£cpzm Counr —Under this head the Chronicle and Ssntinel says: Yesterday morning we published a comment -otioD. signed ‘ Lawyer," suggesting a plan for diminishing ihe business of the State Snpreme Court. The plan is simply to peas a lew pro hibiting any case from being taken to the Su preme Court where the amount of money or the veins of the property involved does not exseed five handled or one thousand dollars. There is no doubt bnt tb»t each a lew would very rff=ct nally accomplish the object for which it would be intended, and the Court could easily dispose of its bu'iness in three or four months. In every one hundred oases carried np for review at the last January term there were probably not more than thirty where one thousand dollars of property was involved. Frequently the amount at isene ia within the jurisdiction of a magis trate, and the esse passes backward and forward throngh three or toar tribunals before it ia finally determined. Mx Joint Kibxfixbioz, a well known citizen of Angnata, died on Thnnday, aged eighty years. He was one of the oldest citizens of Bichmond oonnty, and had lived In Angneta nearly all his life. Tmt only local incident that disturbed the aomnolenoe of Washington last week mi a runaway, whioh the Gazette describes as fol lows: A bone attached to a wagon ran away on tho square last Wednesday. The wagon was badly smashed against the pomp railing, bnt the nigger driver alighted on hie heed and was not consequently hart seriously. He stack np to his shoulders in the herd, dry ground, and had to be dog up and prized out, bnt the fall juat waked him np good. Thx gentleman on the other aide of this paper reed an original poem last Wednesday at the Dawson commencement, of which the Jonrnal uyi: An original poetioal essay was read by A. B. Watson, of Mason. His canning introduction of bitnfolf and "object in verso riveted the atten tion of tbo andicnce, and the eloquent thoughts breathed by the poet-orator and which floated throngh the hall with sweet, and enchanting aound, blossoming with the fragranoe of knowl edge, took hold npon enr thoughts, and, so far aa imagination was conoerned, we yrere a poet for a time. Mn. Tecs. B. Howxli,, a prominent citizen of Pulaski county, died last Sunday. Heavy di-ouii is Pike and Meziwxtezb Coun ties.—The Griffin News of yesterday says: From a gentleman In Pike we learn that a heavy storm passed in the neighborhood of noltonville. In Meriwether, in the Caldwell settlement, it did an immense amount of dam age and in its traok through Pike, which was down the river some diatanoe and then throngh the oonnty by way of Hardhead, It also did con siderable mischief. House roofs were blown off, trees torn down, crops and fences destroyed, and Mr. Ben Irwin's team and wagon loaded with oats, were blown over. Fortunately no one was seriously injured. Tex La Grange Ueporter states that there is more tick Dean in that place at present than has been known for years—mostly bilions fever. It names ten citizens who are naw down with that diaeaae. On the snbjeot of more factories at Golnm- bni, the Eaqnlrer says: Thebe seems to be little room for donbt that more factories sill be commenced within the corporate limits ibis fall, to-wit: Eagle and Phcaalx No. 3, and a new mill of large capioity nnder the supervision of Mr. J. Bhodea Browne. Wo say that thore’a little room to donbt that these two mills will bs oommenoed, for the gen tlemen who are at tbo head of them know fnlly tbo importance of Ihe enterprises and recog nize no such word an fail in whatever they Inrn their heads and hands to. In addition to there Gen. Chilton is soliciting, with encouraging aneceaa, subscriptions to capital stock for a new mill, three miles above the oity, jnst below Go- Inmbns Faotory No. 1. These mills will add considerably to onr popnlation, and greatly to onr already ex’ensivo manufacturing import ance. Wo shall tjien have nine cotton and woolen manufactories. Mas. F. Kino, of Savannah, attempted to commit snicide last Thursday by taking a large doss of Inndancm. She was nnoonscions all tho next day, and is considered in a very criti cal condition. A cab car belonging to the Central road was broken open at Savannah on Thursday night, and robbed of one hundred and fifty pounds of car brasses. We find the following ia the Albany News of Friday: Tbo case of L. A. Jordan vs. B. O. Keaton, which was tried in Dongherty Superior Oonrt last week, was a very important one, and we are -ati-fitd a general synopsis will prove interest ing to onr readers. Mr. B. O Keaton gave a plantation to hia two sons, Wash and Warren Keaton, snbjeot to and nnder the condition of his will, after his life time. The two sons gave lo the father a receipt for Tho same, and it was inly recorded. Then Wash and Warren sold the whole place to L. A. Jordan. B. 0. Keaton then brought an action of ejectment against Jordan, claiming that the sons bad no right to sell the property being given to them nader condition only, and not absolutely—hence no title ia vested in them. L. A Jordan files a bill of injunction, enjoining B. O. Keaton from pro ceeding farther with his notion, as be had title from them, and bonght it withont notice— benoe an innocent purchaser. The oonrt ruled, That this receipt was not a deed, and oonld not have been oonaidered as properly recorded in the Clerk’s office, and notiee to the world. That a will is a disposition of property after a man’s life time. The jury found a verdi rt in favor of the complainant in tha bill of eqnity— Air. L. A. Jordan. Scxx of onr “ largest circulation in the State” ootemporaries moat have pressed all their edit orial staff into the servioe of making np the mails to supply ihe enormous demand. We jndge so at least from the ippeirenee of their local and editorial oolnmes. Perhaps their sub scribers might like a little more matter in these oo'nmns, and a little less “ iargeet circulation.” Wz clip this incident of last Tcesday night’s heavy rain in Booth west Georgia, from the Americas Republican of yesterday: Ovxs an Elxpeant's Head.—We have hoitd very stunting story of one of onr 8nmter oonnty farmers, living in the vicinity of Dan ville, whose cotton and oorn crops hsve besn lost to mortal vision by the heavy rain of Tues day night. Our friend's cotton and oorn fields bad suddenly beoome an inland sea, withont ev^a an i&land to lend pietore-qaeneoe to the delavian soene. He climbed a tree in the grow ing gloom of nightfall and aat in tha crotch of the branches; his arms folded; he given over to saddest meditations—a picture of despair, a monument of disoonsolaticn np a stamp. How long be thns sat and pondered over the logs of a year’s hard labor and bis ill-lack, we will not say, bnt in coarse of time the piping voice of one of his new tenants called his wandering meditations back to time and piaoe. “Knee- deep ! knee-deep! knee deep!” cried Mr. B. Frog, from bis piaoe in a paddle near by. “Knee deep?" replied our farmer friend, who svetned to have been sudden'r awakened ; “you d—n little fool it’s oeer an elephant’t head!” Bzv. Da. Pizr.cz.—The Southern Christian Let Both Stand. Some of the newspaper* have already begun to discos: the propriety of re-eatabljahing the reoently abolished dead-headism by whioh ex changes were carried free throngh the mail* — Others, again, think the franking privilege ahonld be re-established, with all its Imperfeo- tions and possible abua.a. We trust neither will be done, says Ihe St. Louis Democrat. The newspapers that are worth living are aide to pay postage on their exchangee^ and those that sre not able to pay this bill ought to peas In their checks aa soon as possible. The franking privil ege to Congressmen and other cfficialj was cuisanoe, If onno other ground than the manner in which it served* to encumber and delay the mails, to the disadvantage of legitimate business correspondence. We do not believe the government will gave a dollar by it: abolition. The railroads will reoelye jnst as much for carrying the mails, and the clerical forces in the post-office: at Wash ington and elsewhere will not be reduced by single man. Indeed, the expenses of the de partment have been increased instead of having been rt d iced since the repeal went into effect. Nevertheless, the frank'was a fraud, and its abolition is a reform which ought not to be ar rested or interfered with. It wtu a reform in the sense in which Bnokla defined that word “not the doing of something right, bnt the nn doing of something wrong.” Let it stand. BY TELEGRAPH OAT DISPATCHES.

[Letter from George Alfred Townsend in the Cin cinnati Commercial J My imagination has been touched at Bismarok by aeeiug a part of the great overland Stanley expedition Betting oat. This is probably the largest military force which ever crossed the plains, unless we exoept Albeit Sidney Johnston's army for the redac tion of the Mormons in U:ah in IS29. It is commanded by General (Colonel) Btanley, the anperb defender of Franklin, Tenn., jnst prior to the battle of Nashville. The cavalry is com manded by that chivalrio yonng soldier Costar, whoeo hair flies aronnd in a fight like Lydia Thompson’s in the breakdown, bnt whore mind ia at anchor all the while like a countryman’s eyes fastened npon the said Lydia. This grand overland armed oaravan incloses the little parly of railroad engineers, com manded, singularly enough, by an ex rebel cavalry general, Bosscr, of Virginia. This man is a shining instance of the power of personal manhood to reenperate and come to the front He ia a West Pointer, and left tho army at tho ontbreak of the rebellion to become the right arm of J. E. B. Stuart. Dtrk, heavy set, and a soldier by iustinit, ha left Virginia in search of employment when this road was mooted, and, finding no better position, took an oxo and chopped hi: way with the laboring gangs.

In'the dead of winter he started ont with ten half-breeds to locate a part of the road since built. Last year, near Biemark, some SI ux got between him and the river, and felt confident of hia eeaip.

The next time the Indian poked ont his head Rosser planted a ball right between bis eyes, and then dashed upon his horse and bronght the dead body into oamp. Rosser is now assistant ohief engineer of the Northern Pacifio railroad, and no person iu the expedi tion id more popular than be. ••Gletbe Governor the Kettle-” The Tribune finds this story travelling throngh the English papers: The Bishop of Lichfield hath a taste for walk ing, and on one occasion, some time ago, he walked from a church in the Black Country to tho railway station where he was to take the train for home. On the way he happened to observe a group of men sitting together on the gronnd, and immediately resolved to “say a word in season” to them, after the fashion of the Caliph Haronn or the average district tract distributor. “Well, my good men,” said his lordship incognito, “what are yon doing ?” The response of one of the men was not calculated to pleasp and encourage the amiablo prelato. “We bin a loyin',” he said. “Lying!” said the horrified Bishop; “what do you meau ?” “Why, yer aee,” was tho explanation, “one on u: fua kettle, and we bin a trjin’ who can tell the biggest lie to have it." “Shocking!” said the Bishop, and atra-ghtway improving the occasion he proceeded to impress upon the sinners tho enormity of lying Ho informed them that he had been taught that one of the greatest sins waa to tell a lie, and, in fact, so strong'y had this been urged npon him that never in tho whole conrae of his life hai ho told a lie. Would that we might relate how those wicked men were moved .and charmed by the recital of such saint- iineas l Alas no sooner had tho excellent Bishop made this announcement than there was gleeful shout, “Gie lh’ governor th’ kettle; gie th’governor th’ kettle!’’ An rorcnant, who styled himself La Moan- tain, mide an ascent at Ibnia, Michigan, on the 4th instant, lost control of hia balloon and fell to .the gronnd a crashed and lifeless object.

The Mayor of Alooy, whom the internationalists as sassinated was a thorough repnblioan, and had spent a fortune in the cause. His bedy was dragged throngh the streets and the mob yelled continuously. Tho oollcotor of taxes was also assassinated, and his body treated with the same indignity, so that he will give no more tax re ceipts. Wby they Were Whipped. The defeat of the government troops nnder Gen. Cabrinetty by the Garlists commanded by Saballo. is attributed to a lack of discipline and good fighting in the Republican foroe. The troops which were oaptured by the Insurgents, surrendered almost withont firing a shot and thns escaped harm. Kelly, the ©’Hernld’a Commissioner, O'Kelly, the'Herald’s Cuba Commissioner, is at at largo in Madrid nnder British guarantees, and sipping mountain-dew. Advocate says: Oar latest advices from this beloved veteran are from Dr. Joseph S. Key, and we ere pained to s*y, are far from being favorable. The 111- neee which has reonlted in hia present extreme prostration, had ila inception in a severe eold, which fell npon hia lungs and developed e most distressing end exhausting oongh. For several weeks he has continued to decline, end his con dition ia such aa to excite the gravest apprehen sions among hi* friend* end brethren. Daring I.., wgcx he was removed from Oohunbna to the reeidenoe of Ear. George Stewart, (boot toai mile* from that city. He bore the fatigue cl the trip remarkably well, and earn* hope is entertained that th* ehamgt aay bars a happy tnfiaeaoe npon hi* health. A heavy squall of wind deliyed the asoension for three hours, but at the end of Urn time the air became perfectly calm. Under the direction of the Professor thu balloon was got into posi tion, and its inflation with hot air oommenoed. The canvas soon filled and loomed np nearly seventy five feet high. The basket waa a willow one, Of a size sufficient to hold one person com fortably. It was attached to the balloon by six or eight iohg ropes, which were fastened at the top to a round pieoe of wood soma two or three feet iu diameter. Tbe ropes were in no manner fastened together between the top tnd the basket Aa each piece was 100 feet long, it seemed even to the inexperienced eye that there abonld have been some webbing or net work, at least, over the beg or bulge of the oanvaa. It waa Mao noticed that tbe ropes were unevenly distribu ted, three or font being in a comparative clus ter, leaving the other strands far apart. Every thing being in readiness, the words ‘ 'let her go” were given, and the air-ship darted np with great rapidity, while the daring arrenant waved his hat to the uneasy, uncertain multitude who almost breathlessly and in silence watched his :ght. Immediately upon leaving the ground the month of tbe canvas began to flip aronnd with great violence. When fnlly a half mile from the earth, and when the whole atraotnre locked no larger than a hogshead, the balloon slipped between the ropee, and was Instantly in verted. The car and its occupants dropped bke a shot, and when the ropes were pulled taut, the round piece of wood before alluded to was torn from the canvass. With the moat Lrriffo ve locity the nnfortnnate man descended, clinging to the betkst. That he wsa conscious was evident frem his straggles. With all the inten sity of a life, with bnt one chance, he strove to raise the basket above him, evidently hoping to use it as a parachute. He succeeded iu hie ob- jeet, bnt when ebon! 100 feet high he loosed his hold, folded hia hands, before hia face, and hia feet fir-t struck the ground with a dull, heavy thud. Then ensued a panic end nproer In the crowded multitude which is indescribable.— Womer^ fain ted; strong men wept, and, to add to the oonfusion, the canvas came flying over the crowd like a huge bird. Some one cried ont to get ont of the way, aa it would fall with crashing force. Then the cry waa taken np, and a general rash wsa mads for mfety, in whioh many were more or lees injured. L>- Monotain waa crashed into a literal jelly. Not a sign of motion or life was visible when he was reached. A medical examination disclosed the fact that hardly e whole bone wee left. Many wore gronnd and splintered to powder. Hia jaws fell npon hie arms, and were pulverized ; the blood spurted from hie mouth and ears. The corpse wsa laid out and placed on the pub lic square, where it waa viewed by thonaenda daring th* afternoon, end waa sent to hie home at Brooklyn, Mich., on tho following day. i MIGHT DISPATCHES.

The inqueBt in the Goodrieh o-tse, which was indefinitely postponed abont s x weeks ago, waa reenmed to d:y. K tie Stoddard, tho pneoner, is a woman of slight fijyire and form, and ap peared wasted by sickneu3. Her face ia remak able for extreme paleness. A frightened ex preBSion ha: settled npon it. When she entered the oonrt she oast a harried glanco at the occu pants of the room and seotusd to be terrified at the appearance of the iuqaiaitive crowd, struggling to obtain a view of her features. At the first glanco she might have passed for a mere school girl, on aooonut of her attenuated form and email stature. Her face, however, is furrowed with slight wrinkles, and a close ob server would say hor ago was from 28 to 30 wot Lncott: Myera wa: tbo first witness oilled. gold watch charm, seal ring, pistol and other articles, which had been found in Kate Stod dard’s trank, were shown to her and sba fully identified the watch aa having been tha pro perty of Giodriob; also, the seal and charm.
