We publish with unqualified pleasure the following communication, which doee but simple juatine to the skill and indus try of one of Macon's fairest and most popular daughters. The writer has ex amined the collection of household deli caciee referred to, and can add his own testimony to every word which our cor respondent has uttered. They are in deed beautiful, and os proud a trophy a« any gold medal ever won at a cui lege nommcnceuMuat. The cultivation o, the mind is of course of the hut impui t- ance, and may not and cannot Le neg* leea»d *n the training of our u«ughters. Jut how often r!c* we aee* girls who bear away the honors and prises cf their oLe mater utterly wanting in the comm one t requisites to com fort and happiness domestic life. They cannot fashion a loaf of bread, hardly know beef from mutton, would be puxxled if asked to carve a chicken, and almost equal t ignorance of the worthy of old, w. could not lor the life of him oomprohend •am the apples got into the dump hug Tnese ooanning and cultivated ladies dout>r -as, are as ignorant of practical matt.*.* as the lately French Queen M »• rie Antoinette, who, when the mob were thundering at the. gates of theTaiilerie , blandly a»ked wltat they wanted. The reply was. ’The people are clamoring on the bread question." "On the bread question?" quotli her royal highness, "why, wuat is the trouble? If they want cske let them have it.” Now, however touch a young husband may admire his hmuteou* br.de. and re joice in her wit and oollege renown, when they subside into their little parlor at home, and the rods J*#k like mud heaps, the ooffee, dish-water, an i the steak is a cinder, then he begins to realize that something more is wanting. He would then gladly sacrifice a little of madamo's French for honest English cookery, an 1 sighs over the defective female education of the day. Heme, Mrs. Bacon's exam ple should indeed be followed by all of the fair daughter* of Georgia. But, in this connection, the achieve ment* of the other ladies who sent con tributions to the Fair should not be ig nored. Scores of them have distinguished themselves by the number and excellence of the articles they havo fabricated. Not having by us their names, we can only at present cite one instance. Mrs. W. An derson, also of Bihb county, has a display of jellies, preserv es, pickles and canned fruit on the ground, which would make the fortune of a confectioner. Some of them are transparently beautiful, and ma- ' tore is preserved to the letter in every particular. The preserves and pickles as - peciallj come under this head. Too , taste, too, with which they are bottled and arranged is exquisite, and fortunately an odirfi ruble light lends increased lu^tr io her department. Wo cannot now re call the number <f the specimens Mrv. Anderson has on exhibition, but it is cer loinly astoniahingly large. Since penning tie above we learn that Mrs. Willie G. White has actually 31b varieties of sweet meats, pickles, etc., at tho exhibition, and from a sample whicl. found its way int > this office, it would K difficult for any oae to excell them. Mrs. Gresham’s contributions too, are repre sented to be very fine. Doubtless then* are many others which we cannot now recall, deserving of commendation. Too much praise cannot be accorded to these noble ladies for their magnifioent contributions to our State Exposition. Macon, Ga.. November 1, 1873. Editor* Telegraph and Messenger: As u lover of the homes and penates of our dost old State, and a special admirer of her noble women, who (God bless them) arr the true exponents of female loveliness and duty, permit a looker-on to burden your columns with a word or two con cerning the handiwork of one of them. 1 allude to the luagaificcnt display of pre serves, pickles, canned fruits and comfit- prepared by Mrs. A. O. Bacon for the llibo county portion of the exposition. Tnat gentle lady, as accomplished ii. household matters as she is in music ant. xn--iil.il cultivation, has actually in posi tion and tastily arranged at the Fair, three hundred and fortg packages of deli csoies of the above description. Many of these are exquisitely beauti tub and I doubt not eat as well as they look. As on exai lple worthy of imitatioi by all the (laughters and wives of Geor gia, surely the public should be informed ot this praiseworthy and excellent feat o. one of oar sna»t refined and highborn ladies. Respectfully, J. A. M. Captain T. G. Holt. This gentleman again bean away the prise of $bOO offered for the best five boles of cotton. Lost year he did the same at Louisville, and indeed has neve: failed to take every premium for which he has ever contended. Intelligent, and well posted as to theory* he is equally expert in practica: performance and may be considered one of the most su*N*essfiil planter* and use ful men of tho State. Our readers, of course, are aware that Captain Holt ha- oocupied the arduous and responsible position e(Gen<xaJ Superintendantof the late Fair. As such, his 'abort* for mouths have Vvn untiring and most successful. Mayer Huff and the city of Macon wer fortunate in securing the service of Cap tain Holt at t-’iis juncture, and right nobly has he discharged his duty. THE STATE FAIR. The Executive Committee. This body and their worthy chief. Presi dent Colquitt, have been Tary diligent and faithful in the performance of all their du ties during the Fair. The fruits of thair la- dor* wore observed in the admirable or- # xier and method which were so marked in •everv department of the exposition. Ever .at their posts* every question that rose -was at once dispx>ed of, and no confusion whatever prerai'ed. The crowd, too, oon- •dacted ttemteltte ’fit' 1 *»«■*■r pro priety. ut mwwj one to be happy .and in a good humor. Kltacu Iktxluoxscs.- Mr. Shrop- .hire, fora lonf time eity editor of the cssznokr, and no* ula News, has spen' attending the Fair hly delighted.

Hogor. wrote upon his ballot = " Doant pant po.wumiuvui iu Ts with 1 AND . One of the Disappointed. "Occasional,” a correspondent of the Augusta Constitutionalist, is a good deal dhappointeJ about what he calls "the Maoon Fair.” The show in all excey poultry, is slim and poor, the crowd small, and be could get nothing to which probably accounts for his disap pointment. Those of os who eat at home or took a lunch, were able to see things from a different standpoint. We all saw fc was much the largest and most varied and complete display which has ever been made in Georgia—a display which filled many large buildings—and covered great space, and which no man could well examine in less than three days. We were all as agreeably surprised at its mag nitude, as "Occasional” was at its men- Jtrr,cu Furthermore, we saw a very large crowd of people every day—the first one only excepted ; and the fact that the gate re ceipts amounted to (our or five thousand dollars a day, proved that what we saw wa* there—because, as tickets run. that amount would represent at least ten thou- and dally visitors, including free passes and half an 1 season tickets. But it may be truly said tnat twice that number would not make a crowd on those very ex tensive grounds. We are sorry the eorru pondent did not go to the great Hij ;«odrome or Amphi- ineatre. where he could have seen ten thousand people at once all seated in one great cirri 3. That was a fine sight—a grand sight—and it would have satisfied him that some few people were on the {rounds, and the attendance was not as dutx as he suppose* But what can be viewed satisfactorily on an empty stomach? Not even the legion of bjautiful Georgia girls on the groun .!* provoked a smile or a compli ment from this saturnine "occasional, 1 with woat nature abhors—a vacuum— beneath his waistband. We were about to say he should have brought his sup ply of provisions with him, but, truth to tell, we have always found Augusta a bad place for provisions, and this may account for tho milk or want of milk in the cocoanut. The man left Augusta hungry and did not take time to fill up after ho got here. We hope be remedied this deficiency soon after writing this letter, and the next one will be more good naturod. m Five Hollar Cliromos. Our grave and reverend, but very interesting contemporary—the New York Observer—explains at length, in a recent number, why he does not follow the example of competing newspapers md offer “ a chromo worth five dollars ” as a premium to every subscriber who pays throe dollars for his years* subscrip tion. Some honest people will naturally say it is because it cannot be afforded— the man, if he does that kind of business, will lose two dollars on every subscrip tion be tokos. So it would appear to the unsophistica ted. But )t is not true at all, because the Observer has received propositions from leading picture printers to furnish any number of thousand of "Chromo* worth five dollar* each" at fifteen cents apiece— with a guarantee that no copy shall be sold outside the order "for less than Five Dollars,” which, of course, upon the vio lent hypothesis tlian any others are sold at that price, would make the market price five dollars. Besides a natural objection to going into the picture business and circulating thousands of red and blue Match Girls. Little Orphans and Weeping Marys, the Observer abhors a small " frod ” on tho public simplicity as much os the Arkan sas lawyer did, and as everybody else ought to do. And so also of tho pewter spoons- German silver cups, pinch back watcher, tin music boxes, cheap sewing machines, patent hand organs, apple-parers, Jews harps, etc., etc., which editors put forth to encourage a manly fortitude and for bearance in their readers in bearing with them yet one more year. If we set aside the question of taste, there arises the point of honesty and candor. It is, at best, a practice borrowed from tho gift concerts, dollar stores, and prize saloons, where a man is urged to buy any thing for twenty-five cents and get a prize of a hundred dollars. Tho proposi tion naturally implies sharp dealing, and though if cunningly handled, may possibly bring much gain, it has not yet been able to secure the endorsement of well established and respectable trades men. It seems strange, then, that edi tors, who should at least be men of intel ligence, refinement and unquestionable integrity, should catch up this old and exploded custom of the dollar stores and gift concert saloons. TIio Difference - And a Shame ful One, Too. The Washington correspondent of the Boston Post writes as follows concerning the difference made between subordinate and high government officials in the mat ter of stopping their pay when absent from duty. He says: "Ladies have their pay deducted for every day’s loss of time. One received a telegram announcing her mother’s death. She had the expense of the journey to and from the funeral, and was docked six days. And so this Administration that is peripatetic, and votes an increase for its members whenever it feels pinched for money, does what was never before done in the history of the Government, stop the salaries of the underpaid clerks for nickness and for death of relatives, there by, instead of a reformatory civil service, inculcating heartleseness and the neglect of those ties of family that every nation should endeavor to instill and foster. A suffering child or mother must be neg lected. or the supplies will be stopped that give the poor harassed woman the means to assist ihcia. If only secretaries and heads of bureaus cot off their own salaries for absences, their clerks would not oomplain.” Grant is absent from his poet fully one- third his time, and instead of his pay be ing docked for such absence it is doubled. But the poor who get no increase of sal ary, have their pay deducted if they hap pen to be absent for a day, or ex m u few hours. The highest officer in the Gov ernment spends weeks and months at the seashore, taking his pleasure as no Pres ident ever dreamed of, and his salary is the same aa if he devoted fircry hour of his life to the public business. Win Cabinet take tbeir recreations often and long, and their salaries go on the same as if they were hard at work. Heads of Departments are in tho same category• But the poor woman clerk who goes to par the last rite to her dead mother finds tier wagvs"docked" when pay day comes. An Innocent Figlit. In the gnat battle in Richmond, Indi ana, last Tuesday, wherein a mob of sixty men attacked a sheriff and his posse, wi..i a six pound cannon and at least a hun dred mu&ket shots with balled cartridge, not a man was hurt- If men will fight, this is the kind of fighting to do. There is no need of tear* after it is orer. THE GEORGIA PRESS. The Gainesville Advertiser is crying aloud for an operator for that place. It says the wires and office hare been ready for & month, but no operator has pat in an appearance. Tits same paper announces the pres ence in Gainesville of Mr. Aaron Dowdy, one of the oldest and most respected citi zens of Lumpkin county, and perhaps the ugliest man in America. He is said to break every photograph instrument that attempts his picture. Waterman, of the LaGrange Reporter, announces his departure for the Fair in these pithy lines: Dear Readers : We are absent—gone to the State Fair in Macon. Our ab sence will be our apology for any im provement you may notice ia t b is week's .Reporter. Txx gin-boose of H. J. Wilkinson.of Coweta county, with contents, all worth $1000, was burned last Tuesday night. Incendiary. Hard Lines.—The West Point News publishes this card I am compelled through your valuable paper, to ask charity from your patrons, aa my wife has got homestead and exemp tion, contrary to my wish and order, ami has eloped, and carried off all my eata bles and clothing; bound me over in a heavy bond to turn orer to her, when called for, all of my personal axul real property; ordered me to rent the laud and nulls, then enjoined tho rentees to pay rent to her only as the exclusive own *r of the property. Now, it follows, as my money is gone, and I am not able to work, from age and infirmity, bein* • now 80 years old, that I must beg, stca or starve, as I have been doing few the last six months. Joseph Shaw. Mr. A. E. Stubois, of McDuffie county, lost his gin house, two gins and eleven bales of cotton by fire on Thursday night. We find the following in the Newnan Herald, of Friday i The Stnod op Georgia convened at the Presbyterian Church in this city Wednesday evening last at 7| o’clock. Rev. J. H. Nall, of Macon Presbytery, preached from text Mat. 9:33—38. Sy nod was then called to order by Rev. James Stacy, Moderator of last Synod, and organised by the election of Rev. W. J. McCormick, of Florida, Moderator, and Rev. James Stacy Temporary Clerk; and adjourned to Tnuroday morning 9 o'clock. The following are names of delegates re ported in attendance up to the present writing: Prxsbttert op Atlanta.—MvnuUre: John Jones, James,Stacy, Henry Quigg, R. C. Ketchnu, F.l MeMurray, Wm.

Thurman, of West End. a?ar Atlanta, was burned Friday mornu. . Loss $4,000—insured for $2,000. The city brewery was also partially burned on the same Jay. What Happened at a Griffin Tem perance Msetixo.—The Griffin Star tells tho following: Toward tho close of the meeting, it being about ten o'clock, some of the audi ence became somewhat restive, and per haps a few went out, when Dr. DeVotie remarked, in his peculiar naive way, that rhen this meeting closes all the groce- 28 will bo often." No more went out. Before adjournment, a set of resolutions were offered, which pledged the meeting to total obstinence, and to use its entire influence to put down the traffic in liquors and their use in every way, except for mechanical and medicinal purposes. These were good resolutions, but what was the horror of our reporter to see that the ballot was to be taken by a rising vote, and that noses were to be counted by the Secretary. Several pillars of the A Western paper describes a shocking accident in this way: " A Kalanissnoo- tcr. named Godfrey. pok**i himself into the knuckle-joint of a shaft, which wound him up at the rate of two hundred revo lutions per minute. Being a snort man, the execution rapid. w church militant took occasion to slip out of the house before the vote was taken. Our reporter stood his ground and so did a worthy member of the chuiteh sitting in front of us, who takes his morning dram regularly and for the stomach’s 6ake, but never gets disguised with whisky. The church man did not get up, Miftbar did our reporter. The two are now fast friends, though public opinion is against them. Professor Broivn, of the State Uni versity, suggests the welting of the gin bond, if of gutta percha or india rubber, when the atmosphere is very dry, as a preventive against fire. He thinks igni tion is often produced by the electricity evolved from the band. We find the following items in the Hawkinsville Dispatch: Serious Fire in Wilcox,—We regret to learn of the serious misfortune that befell Mr. Drury W. Reid, of Wilcox county, on Friday night last. Mr. Reid and family had retired at the usual hour, but about midnight awoke to find the kitchen on fire. It was connected with the dwelling by a covered passage, and in a few moments both buildings were in flames. The family were so alarmed and excited, and the "fire spread so rapidly, that only one or two bods, two trunks and a small chaira wore wqd, gyerythingelse was destroyed, oven his uhddjun's wear ing apparel. Some of them saved scarce ly enough to protect them from the cold, through the night. The smoke-house- sugar-house and other Quillings were also destroyed. The greatest calamity, however, was the probable fatal burning of one of Mr. Reid’s little sons, aged about nine yean. The heroic little fel low was endeavoring to save his bed. He kept pulling at, trying to get it through the door, until the flames had nearly en veloped him. He gave up the bed, and began crawling upon his knees from the house. His night garment was burnedoff his body and legs, and the flesh burned to a crisp. He was alive on Sunday morning, but was delirous during the previous night, and it is scarcely expected he will survive^ The loss is Estimated at $4,000. Haweinathle and Eupaula Rail road.—We receive letters occasionally from Drayton, and other ports of Dooly county, asking information as to the pro gress of the Hawkins ville and Eufaula Railroad. The only facts we can give our friends axe these: A. J. Lane A Co. have a farce of hands numbering some thirty or forty, still at work grading the rood between Hawkins ville and Big Creek. These hands are working on each side of the old Traveller's Rest road, where said road crosses the survey of the Hawkinsville and Eufaula road. D. Lane A Co. have suspended work, and their hands are scattered about the country, picking cotton and doing other labor for the farmers.. D. Lane A Co., had a con tract to grade a certain distance, and after completing it they could obtain no further contract, owing to the fact that the route has not been definitely located beyond Big Creek. Kennedy, the missing Savannah man, ia neither drowned nor murdered, nor has he suicided. He has simply raised all the stamps he could and levanted—at least the Advertiser-Republican thinks so. The Columbus Sun says, up to Thurs- dar afternoon 257 tickets had been sold at the office in that eity for Macon. The Sun Also says, that Belcher, the negro postmaster of this city, has ap pointed another negro route agent be tween Macon and Columbus, in the place of Miller, who was killed last week. The Columbus possum market was flat Wt week—more sellers than buyers. Persimmon crop fine. Molue Wars, the Columbus soiled more than was good for her, dropped dead last Wednesday. Stay Laws.—The Gainesville Eag has some very plain talk on this subject, They are our sentiments exactly. Says tL.- Ukirle : The derangement of business, caused by the late panic, has induced certain persons in different parts of the country to again raise their voices for a stay law. They argue that the people are unable pay their debts because cotton does not command its value. We are opposed ■ any more stay laws. We are reaping now a harvest of bankruptcy and ruin, brought about by the suspension of laws requiring men to meet their honest obli gations at maturity. Stop the collection of a debt against a man for a year, and he wants it two years; stop it two years, and he gets to thinking it ought to be repudiated. We are willing to let by gones be by-gones, but from this time forward never want to see the collection of honest debts suspended for one mo ment. Fewer men have been known to break and become bankrupted and ruined by being required to meet their obliga tions at maturity than there are on turn ing loose the law after a suspension and an accumulation of interest for five or ten years. Stay laws only have the ef fect to lure men into dishonest devices to avoid honest obligations; they arc of no benefit to the people, and we never want to see our statute books disgraced with another. Here ia the way the average Grantite of Troup county raises the wind the tight time*. We quote from the La Grange Reporter j Last Saturday, an impecunious freed- man while strolling about town, without any money in his pocket, concocted a brilliant scheme to "raise the wind.’’ He s&t down by a wagon whose owner had left it to do some trading, and pretty soon he saw another darkey sauntering along whom he marked for his victim. Look a here!” said he of the lean purse, “ have you got twenty dollars about you T* " S’pect I has,” said the moneyed man, "but what o’ iat?” " Why jest dis, if you’ll lend me dat twenty dollars ’bout half an hour, Til C i yer back twenty-one dollars, and I’ll re my wagon wid yer forscurity.I got a chance to make a speculation.” The capitalist "degreed to this;” lent the twenty dollars and took his seat on the wagon: In a short time, the true owner returned, and a fierce contention followed errnng the ownership of the wagon that had been pawned. It was finally settled by the real owner by driving the wagon off, and the money-lender went his way, mourning for the speculator, who has never returned. Tiie French Monarchy. The French papers say that the Count of Chamberd has vindicated his family reputation and secured his prospects for the throne by writing a letter to M. de Chesnelong, one of the delegation from the party o.' the Right in the National Assembly, who waited upon him to get his political views. In this letter the Count says misapprehensions have arisen tending to obscure his policy, which is as clear as day. He owes tho whole truth to the country. He is asked to sacrifice his honor. He emphatically declares he retracts nothing, curtails nothing of his previous declarations of yesterday for the shadow of what would be exacted to-mor row. He cannot inaugurate a strong reign by an act of weakness. He energetically refuses to relinquish the white flag. He indignantly repels insinuations that he mistrusts the valor of the .soldiers. On the contrary, he seeks to confide to them all he holds dear. He ignores none of his country’s glories and contin ues : " We have a great work to accom plish, which I am ready to undertake at any time. This is why I wish to remain ;ls I am. MYr.* I t-mVubl.'.l lo-day, I would be powerless to-morrow. The issue at stake is the reconstruction of society and the insurance of law, order and pros perity. Especially should we not fear to employ force in the service of order and justice. Conditions and guarantees arc spoken of. Were any required by tho Count of Paris, who came to mo sponta neously, at the dictation of patriotism ? I preserved intact our traditions and lib erties and have the right to reckon on equal confidence.” The letter concludes as foPows: "My personality is nothing; principle is eve rything. France will s«*e an end to her tiouoles when she understands this. I am the necessary pilot, alone capable of guiding her into port, because I have the mission of authority. France cannot per ish because Christ still loves her.” 3AD CO., "A rpiCE, > 1, 1873.) Western and Atlantic Railroad Co., President’s Office, Atlanta, Ga., October 31, Colonel John Jones, State Treasurer: Dear Sir—I send you herewith by the Treasurer of this Company, $25,000 in cash, the rental duo the State for the present month of October. Please send me the usual receipt of tho Comptroller General for the amount. Very truly, etc., Joseph E. Brown, President. Comptroller General’s Office, ) Atlanta, Ga., October 31,1873. ) Received of W. C. Morrill, Treasurer of the Western and Atlantic Railroad Company, the sum of $25,000, rental of Western and Atlantic railroad for Sep tember, as per certificate No. 651 of John Jones, State Treasurer. W. L. Goldsmith, Comptroller General. A Paris dispatch of last Friday says: A meeting of the Royalist Committee was held to-day, at which M. M. DeCases, D’ Audifrett, DeLancy and DeChesne- long were present. A telegraphic dis- >ate*h was received from Count DeCham- x>rd requesting that his letter to M. De- Chesnelong be published in fall. All agreed that the letter was fatal to the hopes of the monorchia* coalition* Re publicans are jubilant. A meeting of deputies of the Left Centre was held this evening, M. Leon Say presiding. A resolution was adopted declaring that the time had arrived for giving up a provis ions! state and organizing a conservative republic. Labor Distress in Philadelphia.— A Philadelphia correspondent of the New York Times states that the working class- have been most seriously affected by the results of the panic. In all the innu merable mills, foundries, iron workshops and manufa tones which exist in every part of the city, there has been a general relaxation of business, and the result is that at least 25,000 men vhj? li^e by hc<n- est labor ere thrown out of employment* The Eupaula Daily Times—We are sorry to see that Captain J. M. Maoon suspended (he publication of the Eufaula Daily News on Friday last, and states that it has subjected him to much pecu niary loss. We shall miss this sprightly and intelligent paper, having never failed to read it every day. The publication of the Weekly Times will still be con tinued. Equality or Blood.—On Monday last party of Degrees on board steamer Pargoud at Goodrich JAndi^g demanded social equality. They were driven off by'the officers and crew of the boat. The ne groes dispatched messengers for reinforce- 1, wifhgrmXr Before they arrived the boat backed out, but many shots were fired at her by the mob on shore, though nobody was hurt. Biv. Mr. Harris, of the Alanson Meth odist church, nutde a happy hit at those of his parishioners who put nickles or coppers in the plate. Said he, " I hear the sound of many pennies; now, I beg to remind you we have not yet returned to specie payments” The suggestion was sententious as well as ten centious.— X. T. Commercial. BY TELEGRAPH. DAY DISPATCHES. Refuges for the Poor. New York, November 1.—The com missioners are preparing all unoccupied city buildings for a refuge for the desti tute during the ensuing winter. The Beecher Scandal. At a meeting of members of Plymouth Church last evening, the examining com mittee of the church made a report on the case of Theodore Tilton, recommend ing that his name be dropped from the roll of membership. The report was adopted. Tilton, who was present, de nied that there was any authority for expelling him, as he claimed not to have been a member of the church for four years. He, however, announced his readiness to answer any "charges against him. Mr. Beecher said: I desire to say that I don’t believe that Mr. Tilton has de sired in any way to shirk his proper re sponsibilities or to avoid or evade any proper charges that might be made by the church. He asks if I have any charge to make against him. I have none. Whatever differences have been between us have been amicably adjusted, and, so far as I am concerned, buried— so far as he is concerned, buried. I have charges. This whole matter has not been with my consent. This whole mat ter has been against my judgement. The Threatened Strikes. Builders say regarding the threatens strike, that there is so little work it cun easily be done by non-society men. It the general impression of bosses that the men will submit to a redaction of wagesd H. B. (.Tallin & Co. The great house of H. B. Claflin & Co. is freely spoken of as being in trouble, and it is stated an adjourned meeting of those interested in the house will be held at noon to-day. Ferry Boat Collision. The ferry boats, Erie and Delaware, collided. Five hundred passengers were panicked, but rescued by canal boats. Tho accident is attributed to cheap pilots, who replaced those of experience. Jas. H. Gordon, stock broker, failed to-day. Stocks Sick. No bank statement to-day. Stocks opened 1 to 2 cents lower and fell l to cent. The market ia feverish and unset tled. Suit Against the Chesapeake and Ohio RaUroad. Louisville, November 1.—A suit was filed in Chancery Court yesterday evening by tho Farmer’s Bonk against the Chesa peake and Ohio Railroad Company and the Louisville, Cincinnati and Lexington Railroad Company to recover on note for $30,000 given by the Chesapeake and Ohio RaUroad Company, and sold and discounted by the Farmer’s Bonk at Frankfort. The note was protested after presentation at the company’s office in New York. The Farmer’s Bank then sued oat an attachment aqd garnisheed the Louisville, Cincinnati and Lexington Railroad, which is largely indebted to the Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad. The Transportation Committee in St. Louis. St. Louis, November 1. The Senate Transportation Committee gave a hear ing yesterday. The upper Mississippi rapids have been greatly improved, but are much needed on the lower rapids. The Missouri River is worthless. Tho rail roads have secured the bulk of trade. Kansas has no remunerative outlet for her surplus^produce. A number of rail road men, invited by the committee did not; appear. The Committee dispersed to meet in Washington November lotli, whence they go to New Orleans to in spect the mouth. Affairs In Memphis. Memphis November 1.—The Howard Association announce that they have am ple funds for their/dek, but urge remit tances to the Mayor for the relief of des titution caused by the pestilence and tem porary suspension of the local industries.

I., November 1.—An adjourned meeting of bank representa tives was held at noon to-day, when the report of the committee appointed to ex amine into the affairs of A. & W. Sprague was presented. The committee say they consider the assets of the A. & W. Sprague Manufacturing Company to be $19,495,427 and liabilities $11,475,413— surplus $8,081,084. A detailed statement 1 tho property accompanies tho report. The committee further say, to deter mine whether the mortgage proposed would be solid and free from objections under the provisions of the bankrupt act, they were compelled to ascertain whether the amount of aid asked would all reasonable probability be sufficient tq enable the company to meet its ma turing obligations in the .regular course of business. The unsettled condition of financial affairs, and of business at the present time, and the large amount of obligations of the company matur ing during the next ninety days, preclude the possibility of your committee reporting that the sum $,1000,000 would enable the com pany tq meet itq engagements regu- arly ip the future, and, as in the event of failure to dq so, (h© solidity of the secu rity might be questioned, vqur commit tee, under advice Of counsel, are of opin ion that the sum asked for cannot safely be furnished. Upon coming to (his con clusion your committee were requested by the company to express their recom mendation of the course to be taken, un der the circumstances, to enable the com pany to secure to its creditors the pay ment of their claims, and to preserve, as far aa possible, from shrinkage of the vast available property in the hands of the company. They therefore recom mend that the A- & W. Sprague Manu facturing Company and individuals com prising that corporation mortgage all their property to their trustees, who shall practically have all control and manage ment of their entire property; these trustees to issue notes to an amount of their pw«Qj>t t»<ieli ted ?><*«. ifhese obligations having three years to rnn and drawing semi-annual interest at the rate of 7.3 per cent, per annum, with the right reserved* to pay five per cent, of the deltas often as in their judg ment shall be practicable. It is believed that all creditors will accept these evi dences gf indebtedness; and if the trus tees have the full authority asked for them, they will be able to avert a great calamity to thousands of operatives, make the mill property valuable, prerent immense further shrinkage of values, and pay in full ti 1 © indebtedness of the A & W. "Sprague Manufacturing Com pany, together with that of all its depend ing establishments—it being the duty of the trustees to convert the property and xiy the debts at as early a as possi- jle; and it is not unlikely that the whole indebtedness may be cancelled in much less time than three years, fgigpedj James y. Smith, Seth Radelford, Rufus Patterson, George F. Wilson, Committee. Later.—A note wca read from the counsel of Sprague's corporation an nouncing that the trust deeds were be ing male to Gov. Henry Howard, Rufus Waterman, and ex-Gov. Jas. Y. Smith, and that the deeds will be submitted to the meeting of creditors, and if not ac cepted the alternative would be to go into bankruptcy. The feeling generally prevails that the deeds * of trust will be accepted, H. B. Claflin k Co. New Yore, November-1. — Conse quent upon rumors of the suspen He said: We desire the public to know everything. We do not wish to screen a single fact. It is true, we are suffering a little embarrassment by having allowed some Accounts to mature ; but as regards notes, they have all been promptly met. We don’t sell our own paper, but we do that of other houses with our endorsement. Perhaps the principal causes that have led to present embar rassment is that we overstocked ourselves in our endeavors to assist Hoyt, Sprague A Co. 1 don’t care to say we purchased of them to the amount of a million this week, but we bought very heavily. We are n*.w negotiating for assists.nee from some of the hanks and other oorpora- Ifsuc.i assistance is not obtained the firm will ask for an extendon upon their open accounts. Our notes will bo met at maturity, t le current receipts being ample for that purpose. A failure is .simply impossible, our assets are so far in excess of our liabilities. H. B. Cladin A Co. notified the asso ciated banks at their meeting to-day, through one of its members, that they were not in need of any assistance. Currency Gain. The banks have gained $4,000,000 cur rency since yesterday. They now hold $18,000,000. The lowest amount ever held wa.s $582,000. Horrible Outrages in Lonisiaua, New Orleans, November 1 A letter from ex-Judge Merrill, dated Colfax, Grant ^Parish, October 29, says: “ In haste, and with feelings of horror, write to inform the public of the action of the Metropolitan police sent hero by Lt. Gov. Antoine during the absence of Gov. Kellogg. On Saturday night laat the house of a most respectable widow lady on the river was fired into near this place; the doors were broken open and the un:ortunate lady and her daughter of seventeen summers were taken out, and, horrible to relate, violated. Neither of the latlies could be found until late Sunday afternoon. An infant eighteen months old and grand-child of ex-Gov ernor Wells, was found in the woods some half a mile from the house, and near the spot where the foul deed was perpetra ted. The infant was a niece of the lady, and a child of Mumford Wells, eldest son of ex-Govemor Wells. The negroes up here all say that it was the soldiers, and we all believe if they were not the per petrators, they instigated the negroes to tho horrid deed of infamy. It is said here that when Col. DoKline was informed of the outrago he smiled, and said his troops were up here for a higher purpose than arresting men for such petty offences. Antoine is believed to have sent these creatures up here to give the negroes a chance of revenge, and one of them told thO writer that he ha 1 the right now, under the protection of the United States, to shoot any white man l»e wanted to shoot, and to violate any woman he met. He said to him that these were State troops, and not United States troops, and he repeated that the Colonel had said at a negro ball, the Financial and Commercial OFFICE TELEGRAPH ASD MESSEXG R.

By virtue of authority given by act of Congress approved July 14th, 1870, enti tled "an act to authorize the refunding of the nat onal debt, I hereby give notice that tho principal and accrue l interest of the bonds herein below designated, known as 5-20 bonds, will be paid at the Treasury of the United States in the City of Washington on and after tiio first day of February, 187*$, qnd that the in terest (m s:iid ten vis will cease on that day i that is to say, coupon bonils, known as the third series, act of February 25, 1862, dated May 1,1862, as follows: Cou pon bonds of $50 No. 10,201 to 10,600 both nelusive; $100, No. 30,751 to 44,000 both inclusive; $500, No 1581 to 17,600 inclus ive; $1,000, No 36,000 to 41,000 inclus ive ; total $4,500,000.

The street was flooded with rumors of mercantile fail ures, but these were not verified, and when it became known that many of the reports in reference to Claflin & Co. were grossly exaggerated, and that firm had informed the Associated Banks that they needed no assistance from them, there was a much better feeling all round, and prices advanced more rapidly than they had fallen. Tho great gains by the bonks and the. comparatively few defaults in November interest also accounted for the improved feeling at tho close. This evening the feeling in financial circles was much im proved. The fluctuations in stock were rapid, and the transactions increased in volume, notwithstanding the dullness of Saturday afternoon. The bankers of the Kansag apd pacific railroad stated to-day that they have not yet received {tfvy fimds to pay the Novem ber interest, and did not know when any would be forthcoming. The same was said for iho Burlington and Cedar Rapids railroad. At the office of tte hankers of the St. Louis and South-Eastern railroad, it was ascertained that the company would not he ahle to pay off its interest until next Monday, when, however, it was proposed to do so without doubt. The Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad de faulted in their interest to-day. Messrs. Fisk & Hatch have issued a circular to the bond-holders in explanation of their position, and the company will make a statement on Monday. Nearly three hundred men are thrown out of employment by the partial suspen sion of the Planet Carpet Weaving Mills, in South Brooklyn, to-day. Inquiring of dry-goods dealers to-day showed that their transactions are very light. Dealers are not encouraged to press business, and sales are confined to the slight wants of current trade. The failure of Hoyt, Sprague & Co. has had a depressing (effect and, tb© rumors set afloat abqut Cladin A Co. have sufficed to bring the ury goods trade almost to a stand still. On© dealer said to-day that slaughtering was about the only thing iw taking place. This dearth of trade, is thought, will continue until it can be definitely accertained that the difficul ties will be overcome. In this event bus iness will take a fresh start immediately. On inquiry t©-dav at th‘ freight offices of leading railroads, it was ascertained that their freight business was suffering severely from the financial disturbance, and that in many cases railroad compa nies were largely cutting down expenses by the reduction of wages and the dis charge of workmen, A visit to the offices of the different ocean steamship lines proved that the export trade was never in a better condi tion than it is at present. Almost all the steamers leaving port to-day are loaded to their utmost capacity, and rates were never, as a general rule, higher than now. The import trade has fallen away to almost * nothing, and steamers arriving here are often but half full. This falling off is especially no ticeable in the amount of djy goods im ported. The above refers to the trade with Europe. Trade between this city and Havana has almost been killed by the existing monetary stringency. The people in Havana are buying nothing but the merest necessaries of life. The price of sugar in Havana is lower than its actual value, and holders refuse to LATEST MARKETS BY TELEGRAPH Financial.

The cotton market has been characterized by a heavy decline. Early at the opening Monday’s price* weakened, and continued to decline until Wednesday, wl^n a slight reaction took plait*, which has since been maintained, though salts have been reported at figures a shade lower. The spring demand has materially falleu off. and the recent closing of some of the mills, in addition to the failures* of some large firms,cannot but ra*ta?hl trade from this source, ami-tend to depress tlie market. The demand from the Continent has been active and quiet. A large amount has been u iDped. The ouly obstacle in the way to this tlet is the limited supply for freight accommo dations. Many <6 the urge shipping houses have orders to execute, nut iu consequence of the diffi culty in obtaining freight room their orders are accordingly limited for forward delivery. Busi ness has been active but at declining rates until yesterday, when a better fecliug prevailed, and activity was, in a measure, restored by the up ward movement.
