The Scientific American says that tlie Illuminating power of rosin gas over coal gas is as sto 3—and sometimes C to 3. This renders the price of gas in our city ($7 per thousand feet) less exorbi tant than many are apt to imagine who compare the rates with those cities where coal gas is used. The Boy Pbbactiek. — The St. Louis Democrat says of young Mr. Fulleb, who is called the “Boy Treacher,” whose age is hut seventeen years, that he has, for the last five weeks, delivered in Ma- j rion county fifty-four sermons, and j had been instrumental in the conver-j sion of one hundred and forty-four per- j sons. He has been licensed to preach i only about two months, during which j time he has delivered upward of fifty discourses, and two hundred and forty, persons have been converted through his instrumentality. It is said that he never studies his sermons or makes any notes, and frequently does not select his text until he rises up in the pulpit to preach ; and yet, it is said, no two of his sermons are alike, either in point of argument or composition. He speaks most eloquently, and uses the most chaste and beautiful language. Calls to preach at various points are daily pouring in upon him. Georgia Items. The editor of the Covington Type says the longest train of cars he ever heard of, drawn by one engine, passed down the Georgia Railroad on last Monday.— It consisted of forty-seven box cars ful ly laden. A new military company, composed of the young men of Columbus, has "been organized under the command of Capt. Jones C.

Getting op Steam. — Some of the con ductors on the Southwestern and Cen tral llailroads have been boasting of long freight trains. The Atlanta Intel ligencer contains the following card from one of the conductors on the Georgia Boad: Left Atlanta on the 6th inst., the En gine “G. W. Evans,” Geo. T. McLaugh lin, Engineer, pulling 42 cars over a five mile grade, the heaviest on the Georgia Railroad, arriving at all stations, in ad vance of fast schedule time; drivers five feet, ordinary freight engine drivers four feet. Can tlie Central Railroad follow suit ? The “Central” boys will fmd tlie Georgia Road hat'd to head when they get “steam up,” and we advise them to stop “blowing off” through the pa pers or beat the above performance. Money was loaned by the Macon Mutu-: al Loan Association on Monday even ing last, at from 25 to 29 per cent, pre mium. We are gratified to learn that the re-j vival meetings in Atlanta are well at-] tended, and promise a large ingather ing to the Christian fold.

Benton’s Health.—Colonel j Benton’s health has materially failed j within the past few days. He speaks of, his life as drawing to a close—converses! cheerfully with his friends an public affaire, and says that the only great measure in which the Administration has been successful is the demonstration | of the practicability at all seasons of the year of a central route to the Pacific.

THIRTY-FIFTH congress* Washington, April 7, i SENATE. Nothing of general interest had tran spired up to 1 o’clock. A lengthened discussion followed the, reception of the adverse, report of the Committee of Printing against the print ing of the eulogy on recently deceased Senators. Mr. Seward explained that his vote in favor of printing was not influenced by personal interest. Exaggerated fn > neral honors were also spoken of as nil- j nC< Mcssn« Fessenden, Brown, Hale f and others, spoke against unnecessary j > * >l Mr' Gimeron said in behalf of the committee that all picture books would j ’ be rejected in future. Some thirty or I forty thousand dollars had already been saved by the committee's econo my. "Messrs. Houston and Mason spoke in favor of printing these eulogies. Mr. Bigler preseuted_a petition from Kansas, remonstrating against the Le -1 compton Constitution, and asking a | grant of public lands for the construc tion of railroads in that territory.

Clay, Kennedey, and Yulee. After an Executive session the Senate adjourned. house. Mr. Otero introduced a bill for the construction of a wagon and emigrant road in New Mexico. The House then went into Committee on the Deficiency Appropriation bill. Mr. Letcher said the Committee on Ways and Means were placed in an em barrasing position. They had been fir ed on from the Democratic side of the House, by some against all the provis ions of tlie bill and by others against particular provison. But all seemed to concur in the conclusion that unless the bill in its every provision canbe made acceptable to them, they are prepared to vote it down, and leave the Govern ment without means for carrying out the policy which it has inauguated. He showed that the three millions of dollars asked in anticipation of the reg ular appropriation would enable the War Department now to make cheaper contracts for thetransportutionand sup ply of the army in Utah than if delayed till autumn. A million and a quarter of the defi ciency to be suppled by this bill came as a legacy from the previous adminis tration. If the Utah expedition was improper ly begun,as was said, why did the House pass a resolution declaring that rebel • lion exists there and subquontly pass a , bill to furnish volunteers for the ar my ? It was now too late to urge as a plea -for the defeat of the deficiency bill that the President did not get the consent of Congress before lie began reinforcing ' the troops in Utah. Mr. Letcher then defended the bill ,f generally, The debate was further continued on various amendments. L - Slnslble Talk, 1 Nmv York, April sth. Dear Depress :—ln Saturday’s letter I mentioned that 11. W. Beecher led tlie exercises at Burton’s, during which he stated that the old theatre, with its re cent glorious associations, would be used for noon day meeting no longer. I forgot to mention that during one of the Reverend gentleman’s stiriug exhorta tions, he declared that he used the terms “ Christians and Sinners,” and didn’t like to say “Saints and Sinners” like some brethren, for no one felt the need of pardoning grace more than a true Christian, and asked if any one in the vast audience could be excluded j from the rank of sinners? A well | dressed man in the parquettc jumped up and said, “I must be excluded, be ! cause lam free from sin.” Mr. Beech er instantly replied with characteristic emphasis, “ Then blessed be God, you ought to have been in heaven long ago j | —that’s more than I or any of the rest] iof us can say. It is more than minis- j j ters of Christ can say, and the sooner! the Lord takes you home to himself the ] i better. [Great Laughter.] I cannot i say, nor would Ihe the man to not say, ] “Father forgive me my daily sins. We j preachers preach too much, as though | ! we were too good ourselves, and don't ] I keep religion enough for home con- ■ i sumption. [Clergy on the stage cried hear, hear.] We may as well, returned Beecher, make an open confession. We have learned theology at the schools, and we’ve been teaching it. like schcol boys saying their lessons, arid the ordi nation that many of the Clergy them selves wanted was conversion. That sounded like plain talk.— Petersburg Ex press. Killed His own - Inter. William Burnett one of the men en gaged in the drunken row in town last week, in which Marion McFarland was shot, has since killed his sister, a few miles East of this city. On last Friday! morning, Sally Burnett the deceased, : had taken from the said William a gun, j with which it was feared he might do, mischief, and had hid it. He followed j her as she was returning home from the j I house of a relative near by, and as they ] passed a new clearing, he took up a] limb or pole about six feet long, and ] using both hands he struck her with it j on the head, fracturing her skull in a ] most shocking manner. She never ] j spoke after receiving the blow, but lin- ] . gered until about three o’clock on last ] Sunday morning, when she died. Another sister,and some other per-, sons, we believe, were in company with them, and witnessed the transaction. A reward has been offered for Burnett, ] but at the present writing he has not i been apprehended. — Murfreesboro’ Mews. | It is stated that Col.
