In obedience to a call of tho cit izens of Glynn, a meeting was held this day at the Court House in the city of Brunswick. James E. Lam- bright was called to the chair, and Jaoob L. Bead) requested to ant as Secretary. The Chairman stated the object of the meeting was to review the action of a Democratic meeting held on Saturday, the 27th inst. Mr. J. E. Dart was called upon, and in*a short address explained his position os a candidate for Bep. resentittire, and reviewed the ac tion of the meeting held on the 27th inst,, in introducing the colored el ement into a Democratic nomina tion, and tho closing of the polls without giving many an opportuni ty to vote who desired to do so. Mr. W. J.'William i then followed, stating he had ben earnestly solic ited to become a candidate for Sen atorial honors, bnt under the exist ing circumstances could withdraw his name, and requested the meet, ing would settle on somo good and reliable man. The following preamble and reso lution was introduced and adopted unanimously: Whereas, at a Democratic meet ing held in this city on Saturday last to nominate candidates for the coming term of the Legislature, thore was introduced into that body many colored mou to partici pate in said nomination, in support of John M. Tison, Sr., and Thomas W. Lamb; nnd, Whereas, Objection was made at a A Parisian Monster Guilotlned —Sickening Scene •/Terror. Paris, September 14.—Pierre Jean Welker, the odious assassin of a little g : rl in the Buo Nationals—the was eight, and he strangled her with her skipping rope, outraged her dead body and went to sleep, Using her corpse os his pillow—has been guillotined. The warrant designated as the hour “about 6:30 a. m.," and somewhat after mid night the machine arrived and noiselessly sot up with wooden screws, only about one hundred and fifty per sons being nttrooted to the sceno be sides the military and police. One of them was a woman. It was 1:18 when il. Boch had everything in working order and tried the fall of the ax; then ho and his assistants, Jacob, the Ohio! of tho detective servioe, and the Abbo Crozes, who has accompanied so many scores of murderers to the guillotine, and whoee hack, No. 148, is ns mocha part of tho procession as M. Koch’s van, entered tho prison. Welker was a fearful coward, who had wept and moaned and torn his hair when sen tence was passed and when ho was placod in the condemned cell, but hs believed the merciful fulsehood that forty days must elapse before tho cur rying out uf the sentence, which jail attendants always tell to confiding prisoners; and thinking ho had stilj somo timo left to him, and also having faith that his petition for mercy would be heard, ho had gotten ever his ter ror, ate freely nnd slopt soundly. So soundly was he sleeping this morning that neither tho opening of his cell door and lights of tho lanterns dis turbed him. Jacob shook him by the shoulder, and tile clerk said loudly, ‘Wake np, Welker; your petition has been rejected; you must prepnro to die.” A horrible sound, hnlf the cry of a wild beast, hnlf a dentil rattle, is- ued from tho miserable man's throat, Telephone. The principle upon which this new instrument works maj be briefly described in this manner: In the small wooden case which is sus pended from the wall, is a horse shoe magnet. The influenoe of this induces all around it a magnet ic field, and the notion of the voice or the resonant note of mtuio pro duces an alteration or vibration in thismognetio fiold. Therefore the wave of air throws this into vibra tion, and each movement produces a change in the magnetic field, and an indneed current is generated.— Now, if to the building screws wires ore attached, communicating in like manner with an apparatus wimiW to the above, it will be dear that thore will be a dosed circuit of wire, and the induced current will pass through tho second telephone and back again to the first one. Every vibration made in the first one is re peated by the second, and whatever sound produces the vibration of one is transmitted to and reproduced by tho other. Tho simplicity, the durability, and the efficiency of the tdephone commend it to all workshops, ho tels, factories, polioe departments, mines and signal stations. Perhaps in the futnre operatic) or concert companies, instead of travelling over the country, will simply send ont telephones enough to presont each person of their aadicnce in a dis tant city with an instrument apiece, nnd then do nil their singiug once for all in tho metropolis. For the facts contained in the above article we are indebted to a $2 00 A YEAR* gggaaeswarg—w Old Medway Church. To many of the nativesof Liberty County Oa., who lure since the war made homes in other localities— North, South, East and Wnst,—the hews that this old Church is to be hold will bring feelings of aadeees. Old memories dating to the coloni al days throng^ the war of 177(1, down to the war of 1801 cluster around the old edifice; and it al most seems like sacrilege to sell its timbers as rubbish. Bat a change has come, and the pride and pomp ef the olden time lias passed away. In their places stand poverty ond labor. Oar work is with tbo present, nnd we most work to revive the old bind. Old Medway belongs to the past: let it sell! ihe time that unless their record as and he fell back on hi3 bed, couvul- number of the Scientific Amor Democrats was shown (it never bav- *-•“ “ ’ * ‘" i..:-:- .1 '- 1! iEtna Insurance Co.

According to a correspondent of the Panama Star and Herald, the glowing anticipations of a splendid yield of silver from the abandoned mines of the Cerro de Pasoo are not at all likely to be falsified. “These wonderful mines,” he dedans, “are destined to astonish the world with their prodne as soon as the machinery, si ready at hand, is placed in position." sivoly biting the coverlet. • Hare yon jicar, containing a dtscription of anything to say ?

At Cawnpore, Bombay, and otlurplacPB tho same spontaneous movement is observable, aad it is encouraged by the Government. Tho repeated reverses sustained by tho Russians havo given rise to tbe very illogical deduction that the Asiatic is generally a match for the European. The Hindoos openly acknowledge their sympathy with The Pintes and Shoshones in th* neighborhood of Austin, Nov., have inaugurated a grand rabbit drive in Reese river volley, which will last five days. The volley is teeffiing with rabbits, and the method pur sued by the Indians in killing them insures the slaughter of thousands of the animals. They select a piece of grounj which they know to b* the resort ofrnbbiis, and from a cir cle. Inside of this circle the women aud children ore placed, and the circle is gradually contracted, tho sqnaws and papooses meanwhile beating tbe brush with sticks to start the rabbits. Tbe bewildered little aoimuls rash hither, and thither, and, finding no escape from the cir cle of hunters, are gradually con centrated in a smaller opd smaller space. When tbe snpremo moment arrives, the Indians diacbaige their gnns and arrows on the oonfused and affrighted rabbits, slaying large numbers of them at each volley, and the women and children kill many with their sticks.

Welker kucw nothing. His body foil npon tho plank like a bag of raud, and a moment later tho ax fell. Owing to the difficulty of placing the inert body in position, tho ax shored away tho head diagonally, taking off a part of one shonldcr, and leaving u piece ot the jnw attached to tho other.

A French convict ship, the Nava* rino, was announced to sail on Oc- to’o'3 for New Caledonia with fonr hundred prisoners onboard. So fatal are conditions of such a voyage that a careful inspection is mode of the prisoners bribre their departure, lest any among them should be of a weekly constitution, in that cose tbe result of the' transit would be certain death. Tbs convicts are kept between decks in cages, each of which contains about twenty prisoners. Their limbs are free, at any rate, at start ing; but os they an liable to be ironed for any act of insubordina tion, it is probable that tbia inflic tion is sometimes added to their sufferings.
