A dispatch says that all vessels engaged in this nefarious traffic have hum ordered out of Chinese waters, and cruisers are detailed to watch for anil in- terccpt coolie junks. The Washington Star says it is abso lutely certain that within five year* we shall have a postal savings bank and a government telegraph. Now, if a gov- eminent re-Uurant were only added, with branches at every poshoffice and tele graph station, where pooplo should be compelled to get their meals prepared by government cooks, the great paternal sys tem would bo perfect. Ksv. Stuart Robinson's Vindication. Dr.Stuart Robinson, of Louisville, Ky.. ho* recovered $25,000 damage* against the Chicago Post for publishing that he advocated the propagation of yellow fever through the North during the late war by ro.vins of infected clothing. The judg ment, however, contained the stipulation that he remit the entire amount leas 4lKH. the receipt of which, in open court, erne therein also acknowledged. Vert CoMroRTAhin.—It is stated that Senator Sprague, of Rhode Island, who married, it will be remembered, a daugh ter of Chief Justice Chase, will not bo re duced to extreme poverty by the financial embarrassments of the Sprague Bros. At the time of hia marriage ho oettled a magnificent dowry upon hia wife; and the advent of each child born to the Sen ator has been the occasion of a gift of half a million of dollars.

The following from the Southern Christian Advocate of this city, will show what the religions press think about it; The Geok.ua State Fate.—This ex- position of the skill and material re sources of the State ia in progress while we write, snd is pronounced by compe tent judges far superior to any similar display ever before presented in the South. The attendance has been im mense, and the exhibition of natural pro ducts, and of skill in the mechanic and fine arts, is such as may justly arouse the pride of the people of the State. Vhile the splendid array is enhanced by con tributions from abroad, there ia enough from the State of Georgia, in every de partment of a legitimate agricultural owned at the Northern cities, a pressure from that quarter may be expected, in eluding such parties aa Henry Clows and other*, allies and eo-partner* of the car bet-bag gen.

These made up a surging melange which ebbud and flowed through the sev eral halls, flocked to the hippodrome, oc cupied the grand stand, crowded the tepacioua verandahs, or diffused them selves over the grounds, viewing in turn the cattle, sheep, poultry, and scores of other objects winch transfixed the atten tion of the visitor. It was an animating iuu u use ana uwtiwii, ana a -inking epitome of the great world with its infinite diversity of people, pursuits i.nd productions. NOTED VISITORS FROM ABROAD. Conspicuous among these were the member* of the Centennial Committee, led by ex-Mayor Fox of Philadelphia, and that accomplished diplomat, Hon. James H. Campbell, late charge <T afairf.U) the nourtof Sweden and Norway. Among their number also were General Norton and J. H. Zeilin. Esq, both former citi zens of Macon. These gentlemen all made the finest impression upon our ■ ommunity. and were received and enter- taioed with distinguished courtesy. Their mission among ns was in the interest of peace and harmony. They came to re vive the slumbering spirit of 1770 in our hearts, and reonll the traditions and glories of anhoi.ored aneo»t y, and tho purer days of the Republic. That grand celebration of the nation’s birth, it is to be hoped will form a new departure in its future history. It is wholly and ab solutely disconnected with politics. IIencc,.thi* embassy to a distant Southern State, to assure her people that their rights, priviliges, and interest in the na tional jubilee, are equal and identical with those of any other commonwealth. The ceremonies will take place in Inde- I-endence Hall, where the seats once oc- upied by the signer* of th» “declara tion," remain intact to the present day. In connection with thia great event which will culminate on the 4tli of July, 1876, a grand National Exposition of the arts and sciences, and the material pro ducts of the vast territory embraced in the Union, will be held, commencing on the 18th of February of that year, and continuing until near the close of Octo ber. It will indeed be a World's Fair. Applications for space in the building, which wiU cover forty octet of ground in Fnirmount Park, are already pouring in from nil ports of Europe. Ex-Mayor Fox is a genial and Ubcral gentleman, and expressed himself both delighted and greatly astonished, at the magnitude and excellence of our -State Exhibition. Mr. Campbell gave evidence also on two occasions when be delivered brief addresses, of a high order of intel lect. and the possession of great forensic ability. Ono thousand dollar* in Cent ennial itock were taken in thi* city. the nuus was largely represented at the Fair, and were handsomely provided for in their own Editor*' Home. New York, Phila delphia and other remote points had their reporters, and our brethren of Georgia turned out in strength to do honor to this glorious display of the re sources of the Empire State. Through their notent agency its fame will be noised abroad to her remotest confines, and. wo trust, open the hearts of the legislator* soon to assemble at the Cap ital, to grant material Aid to the State 'Agricultural Society. Gov. Smith, it is understood, put himself on record lost week, os in favor of an annual appropri ation of twenty thousand dollars for this laudable purpose, and surely, no dona tion would more effectually permeate all ranks of society, and give a healthy im- potae to every department of commerce, manufactures and agriculture. Liberal ity in this respect is sound economy ; for the appropriation will be repaid fourfold tho increase of the taxable Tallies of the State. But enough of this for the present. Bibb County Forever. Mr. W. S. Brantley had on exhibition at tho Fair, a wagon load of champion vegetables, which somehow or other es caped the notice of the judges. As a sample of tho lot, may be instanced a magnificent assortment of turnips of sev eral varieties, raised from imported seed, which oven Old England would find it difficult to beat. From a single acre, this gentleman has raised the present season 3,300 pounds of turnip tuber*. Another patch of similar size has yielded in cask erer seventy doUart, and yet the turnips can hardly be missed frffm it. InjSr* weeks after sowing, the market stalls were supplied with bis young turnips- Now. this is a matter to be justly proud of, premium or no pre mium. and moreover is strictly true. No crop is more profitable to the farmer than ruta-faagm or mangel-wurzel turnip*. With their aid. and very little hay and groin, milch cow* and oxen may be kept in splendid condition all winter. Europeans have found this oat. Hence the increased attention paid to root crops over the water. Bill Arp's “ Peace Papers.” Messrs, Brown A Co. sent os a copy thia book on Wednesday, and ever since we have been defying’the bln* devils bom of rain and mud, world without end, and growing — wisibly ’* fat. Some three paper* are old acquaintance*, but are none the less enjoyable Jfor all that. Other* now appear for • the first time, and ore still better. They indi- cate that Bill’s fanny rein is not playing oat. but growing richerthe more it is dug. We regret, however, to see that Mr. Arp is not os trooly Icyl os he should be. Some of his talk is shockingly disloytd, snd calculated to wound the feelings the patriots whp “saved the life of t nation." This is very sod. and some the authors friends ought to remo with him. He even gore so far as to speak disrespectfully of the great states man who runs tho machine at Washing ton.

It will be seen by a notice published in this edition by Mr. E. Taylor, secretary of the State Grange, that a mass meet ing of Patrons of Husbandry in the Cot ton Sta'es will be held in Atlanta on the 25th instant, to devise some measures looking to self-protection. Papers friend ly to the Order are requested to give cur rency to the notice. and mechanical fair, to demonstrate be yond dispute the capacity of her people provide for themselves. ] low far the financial raooets of the Fair is due to means which must rtoeive the unqualified censure of Christian peo ple, we are unprepared to say; but we conclude that such means were regarded indispensable to success, os they have been employed to perhaps an unprece dented extent, and in seeming disregard or ignorance of all adverse moral senti ment. Not only has horse-racing, ac cording to the regular gambling role of the turf, constituted a prominent feature of the occasion; not only has the circus, with its pestilential brood of “aide shows," been taken under the patronage of the Fair by being admitted upon the grounds within the enclosure; but ' k facilities for the lower forms _ gambling, we are informed, ore anblushingly paraded in various ports of the park, not only without rebuke from the authorities, but with licenses for which the proprietor* have paid roundly. Success by such means is a public disas ter; and heartily as we sympathize with tho material prosperity of the State, Ve would tar rather record the utter failure of a legitimate Agricultural and Mechan ical Fair, tbs" the brilliant success of such an iniquitous combination. The anticipated stimulus to agricultural and mechanical enterprise will prove a mea gre compensation to the State for the encouragement which is given to gam bling. with its concomitant vices. We take no pleasure in thus criticising i enterprise, which is the theme of almost universal eulogy, but we feel that we would bo recreant to the claims of our position if we taile-1 to record our con demnation of the shameful features which disfigure this otherwise splendid and praiseworthy display. We cordially desire the highest prosperity to Georgia and tho city of Macon, bnt wo are fully oatie&od that the material prosperity of no community or State can De perma nently promoted by the sacrifice of its morals. The Savannah .papers say that the momentous 4th of November was no ticeable for the prompt settlement of liabilities at all the banks." The Athens Watchman reports an un usual amount of sickness in that commu nity for the post two weeks—chiofly pneumonia. The Fart Valley Minor is very indig nant at the "gambling traps" allowed on the Fair grounds last week, and insists that at future fairs the sports who run them shall be arrested. It soys that 'even member* of the church took alively interest in these abominable swindling schemes." The same paper has the following: Aiutisr.—Our readers in Taylor county wfll recollect that about one year ago a man named Cator Barfield stole a horse a few miles above Butler, and employed a young man to sell the horse and turn him over the proceeds. Tho horse was sold and B. reoeived the funds and left for ports unknown. Bnt the young man was arrested, tried and acquitted, if we mis take not. Mr. C. A. J. Pope, the Sheriff of Taylor county, was at Macon oa Fri day, attending the Fair, and saw this man Barfield charging around in the race track on a fine steed, and, having the necessary documents in his pocket, ar rested him on the spot and carried him to Butler jail for safe keeping. The Independent says Dr. A. J. Sew ell, of Lumpkin, Stewart county, had his right ankle and leg broken lost Monday by jumping from his buggy, which was being run away with by a frightened home. The Montezuma Weekly reports the burnin -, last Monday night, of the resi dence of Col. W. H. Willis, of Oglethorpe. Only a few articles of furniture and bed ding were saved. We find the following in the Atlanta Constitution, of yesteniay: Killing of One Man and Probable TATAit Stabbing of Anothbe in HknUt County.—News reached this city yester day of a bloody and terrible rencounter near Stockbridge* Henry county, nt a corn-shucking at Asken’a. Marion George and a negro got into a difficulty, result ing in the cutting of George by the ne- oto—disemboweling him. The father of George took up the difficulty, when an other negro knocked him in the head and killed him. The negro who did the cut ting was captured—the other negro es caped- „ _ . . Italian Inmobants.—The Chronicle and Sentinel learns that the I tab an Colo nization Agency of New York has sent a large number of immigrants to Almeda, the new colony near Port Royal, South CHim. It is expected that fiTe hun dred families will be rent to the same place daring the present year. Each family receives forty acres of land free. Pole Cocxtt Calls foe a New Con stitution, and Denounces State oe Crrr Aid to Railroads—Orroszs the Repeal of the Uzurt Laws, etc.—At a large meeting of the citizens of Polk county, held at Cedar Town last Friday, Judge Wright, of Rome, addressed the sovereigns, and the following resolutions were adopted: Resolved 1st. That in the opinion of this primary assembly, the present con stitution of the State of Georgia does not truly represent the public sentiment of her people. Kosolred Si. Tbit we do earnestly re quest the next ^ >sion of the Legislature to call a convention for the purpose of re modeling said ccnititution. And *spe- 'iallv do we believe the State should be prohibited from the loan of iU credit to either persons or corporations^an^ from and* recommend that they be re-enacted with the penalty of the lose of both prin cipal an l interest, and such f urth-r pen alties am will efficiently prevent the loan of money at a rate of interest beyond what can be paid by the agricultural, tawH laboring classes, consist ent with a reasonable prosperity. Th* Conyers Examiner says the ques tion of water is becoming quite serious in Conyers. Nearly all the wells in town have and the drouth still contin ues. We have had barely enough rain in about eight weeks to lay the dust. All the watercourses in this section are get ting very low. _ Affairs in the Alabarm. The Selma Times states that a hegira of negroes from that portion of Alabama has commenced. It is thought the al most total failure of the crops is the /»n«i> of this movement. These negroes are migrating to the Mississippi bottom. The Times can see no way by which they could live if they remain in Alabama, and it therefore rejoices that the exodus has commenced. In like manner, the Haynerille Exam iner rejoices in the midst of poverty and starvation-crop*, in the possibility of deliverance from the curse of negro poli tics by a negro emigration enforced by the scarcity of food. He saya: In Florida a considerable demand ex ists for laborers in the lumber business. In Mississippi, Louisiana and Texas good hand* command $15 a month and rations, and planters are now writing to Alabama, uid advancing them transportation for themselves and families. Many families have already gone from lovndes, Dallas, Marengo and Sumter, and I am satisfied that full 40 per cent, will all go in the course of a year or two. With half of l»nd now cultivated in cotton, from Eufaula west to the Mississippi line, in corn and oats or pasturage, and half the negroes on their westward way, what a glorious prospect of the riddance of the eril of having taxes imposed, collected and squandered by those who pay none The White Man’s Government will then become a certainty. He can then invite immigration, for he can then offer the security of good government; and without this it is idle to ask any one to come to us. We had as well ask sensible men to go to Timbuctoo. . The Examiner gives a doleful report of crops in the Black Belt of Alabama. He says not h«.lf the corn product of last year was made. The creek bottom and lowland crops have been almost a total failure, and planters in some instances did not reap twenty-five per cent, of the corn consumed in the planting. The success- failuies of crops h;ivg reduced the means and credit of planters so low that forty per cent, of the labor employed last year must be abandoned. We are sorry to see prospects so gloomy with our sister State; but the native wealth of Alabama, will, in the end, tram ple over all obstacles. Her mines and manufactures will give her, in time, a safe voting population, and a Government under which order, security and pros perity will bo possible. The Southern Historical So ciety. The Richmond Dispatch says the Ex ecutive Committee of this Society at a meeting held on Saturday made arrange ments to actively push their important work. They have been very fortunate in securing General Wade Hampton to en ter at once upon an active canvass for ex tending the membership of the Society and collecting material for its archives. They are arrangeing with some of the ablest uicaa «1m figured in the council chamber, the Cabinet, and the armies of the Confederacy to prepare for the South ern Magaxine, the organ of the Society, papers bearing on the civil and military history of the great struggle, thus bring ing to light many things which have been unknown or are forgotten, and making most important contributions to the truth of history. They have also arranged to have in Richmond during the coming winter a aeries of popular (free) lectures by some of tho most distinguished men the South on topics bearing upon Con federate history. And they are making earnest appeals to all interested to help on the good work by contributing such material as they may have or can secure. FRIDAY MORNING, BY TELEGRAPH Tho Stokes Verdict The Chicago Tribune expresses onr own opinion so dearly and fully of tho murder of Fisk and the consequent dis graceful verdict by which the murderer escapes the gallows, that we make room for it. It says There has hardly been a murder com- mittod in this country which was so bar ren of extenuating circumstances as tho murder of Fisk by this man Stokes. It was a mean and cowardly murder; it was a deliberate and premeditated murder. Since the murder of Abel by Cain there has been no killing more deliberately planned or more coolly executed. There was nothing to lift this man Stofes above the level of his victim; there was nothing in Stokes’ relations to tho wo man Mansfield that was calculated to lift him above the level of any other liber tine quarreling over the hire of his mis tress. Of tho three (Fisk, Stokes, and Mansfield), Fisk was, in every sense, the superior; he was unscrupulous, vain, and conceived; they were mean, sordid, cowardly, and murderous. Fisk was a good-natured reprobate; the others were professors of the panel game. The male prostitute at least murdered the man who refused to be any longer plucked; hud in wait for him. and shot him down deliberately, maliciously, and cowardly. This has been throe times tried. Twice, after the most vigorous efforts of able counsel, and with all the aid *hat the lavish expenditure of money could purchase, he was convicted of murder nnH sentenced to be hanged. Twice by the same means did he escape death, on the plea of informality in the proceedings of the trial. We have now the result of the third trial, and it is simply disgrace ful to the execution of the laws, and the greatest disgrace that has yet been given to the jury system. A His^racelul "Will Case, Some time last year a Dr. Aulick, of 'Washington City, son of Commodore Aulick, of the Federal navy, died very suddenly in that city, and it was found after his death that he had left all of his property to hi, wife, a clerk in the Treas ury. to whom he hod been secretly mar ried. The other heirs now have entered suit against the ton’s zhare of the estate, attempting to recover various sums charg ed to the dead son from the time of his majority to his death. Among these items ore board for nine years and ten months, $9,000; office rent in the resi dence, $1,700; nursing him while sick, medicine* and college expense, a thou- more. The Northern newspaper* refer to this ease as “sensational,” but to our mind the word disgraceful applies much better. The Knoxville Strike. The Knoxville railway freight train block, according to press telegrams yesterday's edition, was in full foroe up to Wednesday night. The Daily Press and Herald of Wednesday morn' ig says There were no freight trains r n yes terday. One trail; of eara looked with M v augmentation of'‘its present indebt- cotton, wa, moved a short distance up edness '’except for the necessary expenses i the road, under the charge of Mr. Hodge. , Tha- a Eke prohibition master mechanic, who was accompanied tS,SErtJssssftr DAY DISPATCHES. France—Action of the National As sembly. Paris, November 6.—The deputies of the Right warmly cheered MacMahon’s speech, and moved a ten year term. A aoartist deputy moved that the peo- decide the point on the fourth of January. Goulard demanded that the motion of the Right be declared urgent.’ The Duke de Broglie supported the mo tion of urgency, and the motion of the Right was finally declared urgent by a large majority. A declaration of urgency * the motion of the Bonarartist deputy } defeated. French Ministry Resigned. London, November 6.—A special to the Times says the French Ministry have resigned; reserving, however a right of reconstruction. Riot in Ireland. There was a riot in Portadown, Ulster county, yesterday, growing out of a Guy Fawkes celebration. The police had a fight with the Orangemen and several persons were wounded. Capture or the Yirginlns and a Crowd of Cuban Patriots. Havana, November 5,—Tha following ^articular* of the capture of the Virgin- ua have been received from Santiago: The Tornado, which had been searching for the Virginiu* since her attempted tapping on South Coast Island, came in sight of her at 2£0 p. x. on the 31st, and immediately gave chase. The filibuster >ut on all steam and made for Jamaica, loping to find a refuge in British waters. ■ her flight she threw overboard several .-aes and used a portion of her cargo for fuel, but the Tornado caught up with her at 10 p. x. near the Jamaica coast, and she surrendered with all on board, not one of whom escaped. Among the prisoners are the well- known Insurgent Chief, Bembetta, who was reported killed a few days ago; a brother of Cespedes, a son of ^ Quisada, Senor Jesus del Sol, and other important personages. The prisoners have all been brought before a competent tribunal at Santiago and are now being tried as pirates. Great rejoicing over this capture is made in Havana. The streets and houses are decorated with national colors. Subscriptions are being raised for tes timonial to the officers and crew of the Tornado. Le Golidad, tho leading organ of the Republican party, to-day publishes a letter addressed to Captain General Jew- ellar protesting against the attacks of the Conservative press. Western Mills Closing. Louisvillk, November 6.—The lower rolling mills at New Albany closed to day. The workmen were demanding ad vanced wages. Four hundred of them are thrown out of employment. The cement mills will shutdown to-mor row, having large stocks and light sales. The iron moulders belonging to unions liavo refused to accede to a reduction of wages, and Lithgow & Co. will discharge one* hundred men and close their foundry to-day, Latkk.—All tho rolling mills have •topped work, and many other establish ments are running at reduced wages. Others will close when the present con tracts axe complete. There will be a large number of operatives thrown out of employment. New York Election. New York, November 6.—By the "World’s statement the Democratic ma jority is 14,813. The Senate is a tie, and there are four Republican majority in the Assembly. The Times claims six majority in "the Senate, .and concedes 12,000 Democratic majoritj in the State. Monticello, November 6.—Sullivan county gives the Democratic State ticket 700 majority—a Democratic gain of 344. 20,000 Democratic Majority in Maryland. PV_..jn(n%E. NnvftmH«r fi.—The Dem ocratic majority in the State is twenty Wisconsin Election, Milwaukee, November 6.—Further returns do not change the estimates. The Senate is nearly a tie, with three districts unheard from. Tho Re.ormers have a large majority in the Assembly. Minnesota. The latest from Minnesota indicates the election of Davis, Republican, by 5,000 to 8,000 majority. The farmers elect the State Treasurer. • Illinois Election. Chicago, November 6.—The farmers carry fifteen, the Republicans ten, and the Democrats two, of the 27 counties. It is reported that Collins’ majority for Mayor is 11,000 Kansas Election. In Kansas an opposition majority on joint ballot is conceded. This secures a conservative Senator for Caldwell’s un expired term. Mississippi Election. Jackson. November 6.—Nothing offi cial is known. The count is very slow; but it is generally believed that Ames has carried the State by 15,000. Tom Scott—Dividends. Philadelphia, November 6. — The numerous rumors in relation to Vice President Scott, of the Pennsylvania railroad, have induced inquiries from an official source, and we learn that all tho stories afloat are without the slightest foundation. The board of directors have had no action on the declaration of a divi dend, but meet to-morrow for the de cision of that question. Burning Steamer. Bbownsville, Ontario, November 6. An unknown steamer burning is off the port of Darlington. NIGHT DISPATCHES. Meeting of Sprague’s Creditors. Pbovidence, November G. A meeting of tho creditors of the Sprague Manufac turing Company was held to-day. Hon. Ames’ C. Baistow was chairman. A com munication was read from tho debtor’s attorney, stating that, with extension, they could pay all and retain their pres ent works, and probably other manufac turing property, and pledging them ut most efforts to that end. A committee of five from the meeting was appointed to confer with the Spragues. Thurston, attorney for the Spragues, stated that the Spragues’ whole object was that the property should be devoted to the payment of their debts, and that the trustees to be appointed should be friendly to the house only so far as that after the debts are paid the property shall not be dissipated. It was important that the appointment of this committee should be such that it would be impossible to sav anythin'- was intended except what was for the good of all.

The company stall refuses to receive freight. The strikers made no attempt to stop the train, bnt sent a committee of their men on the engine to prevent the company’s master mechanic, who was acting engineer, from placing any non-society engineer in charge of tho engine. The mail trains run regularly. The men are quiet, but determined.' The company is firm. The directors met this evening ana adopted unanimously the following resolutions; Resolved by board of directors of the East Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia railroad. That the order promulgated by Capt. Jaques, superintendent and vice president, dated October 30th, reducing salaries and wages of officers and employes of this company, was imperatively re quired in view of the greatly reduced in come received, as explained in said order, and we cordially and unanimously ap prove the same. , , ,, ... Eesolvbd, We claim, in behalf of the superintendent and vice president, tho right to regulate the wages of his ap pointees and subordinates, conceding a full and perfect right to the emplycs to accept or decline the terms proposed.

The application was granted. Capture or the Ylrgiulus. "Washington, November 6.—Little is known in official quarters concerning the circumstances of the capture of the Ylr- ginius by the Spanish man-of-war Tor nado, and therefore the course of the Administration is not*yCt defined. Fur ther information is awaited from out Consul at Santiago, who will a :t in con junction with the Consul General at Ha vana, under instructions of the Department of State. It will be recollected that within the past two years this vessel was pro tected in several foreign ports from the designs of Spanish men-of-war and con veyed to sea on the ground that her pa pers, as an American steamer, were ■ in perfect and legal order. It was main tained by our Minister resident at Co lombia, while the Virgimus was lying at the port of Colon, and was menaced by the Pixzaro, that the only tangible mat ter capable of proof appeared to be that she ran. the blockade . of Cuba with an armed party of Cuban revolutionists and a cargo of munitions, proceeding from some port in Venezuela, and makinsr ! ■ landing in the Eastern Department cf Cuba. • j This was about twenty months ago. and the act has since been repeated by that vessel, the law, as he understood it, to be that although the ship during such voyage was liable to capture and could and would not be reclaimed by the United States, such liability ceased when the unlawful voyage was • completed and no taint was attached to the ship, which would in any way justify a forcible seiz ure and detention by Spanish • Cruisers in that state of affairs, if the ship pre sented herself in a neutral port with her papers in regular form it could not be permitted that she should be captured in such neutral waters or on the high seas; for a past act of blockade-running he, did not admit to be an offense against the neutrality laws of the United States, to charter a steamer for the purpose named from Venezuela to Cuba, it cer tainly was not an offense for which Spain was entitled to capture the steamer, ex cept in the act. It does not apear from the diplomatic correspondence that our Government dissented from these views, and it is therefore probable that they will govern in the present case, and care will be taken to be satisfied on all the points now envolved, the subject being one which excites the closest interest. The Spragues. Providence, November G.—The meet ing of the Sprague creditors reassembled this afternoon, when the committee ap pointed in the morning reported that they had held a long interview with the Messrs. Sprague and Hoyt. The latter expressed every desire to give all power to the trustees to meet the views of the creditors, and said the deed to bo given tho creditors should be submitted to the legal advisers of the creditors. The com mittee had adopted a resolution that the plan proposed was the best that could be devised for the conversion of the proper ty and payment of the debts., ^he com mittee suggested that Rufus Waterman, Amos D. Lockwood and Georg** C. Myhl- engall be appointed trustees; that they have power to employ counsel to draw up a deed for the protection of creditors; also to fill any vacancy in the board. O’Howard, of the committee, made a few remarks attesting to tho willingness of the Spragues to do all in their power for the creditors, and said that the sur render of the property to the control of the creditors was absolute and complete. The report of the committee was adopted, and a board of trustees appointed. The committee was continued and given full wers, when the meeting adjourned, io result of the meeting ia regarded as encouraging. The Stokes Trial Corruptions.
