He has just proved it beyond contradiction, and at this moment public i-ccUineut in Leadville pronounces him the ablest and most powerful clergyman for his weight in the United States, xvh ; le a committee of leading citizens is about to present hiui with a silver mounted revolver as a testimony of respect and admiration. The Rev. Mr. Withers earned this enviable reputation a fexv weeks ago while engaged in marrying the xxeTl* known Mr. Roaring Bill to pne of the most beautiful and accomplished daughters of Leadville. The bridet groom was a man of most excellen reputation, having killed three men in hand to-haml lights and wounded number of others. He was not a corap inied to the altar by any grooms* man, and the bride was similarly d void of bridesmaids, though their pla was to some extent taken by her three brothers. Mr. Withers, who up to that time had been known as an ex. tremely pcajeable nun, and was no: supposed to have a particle of fights ing ability about him, had been warn ed that the bridegroom was very quick-tempered and exceedingly jeal* ou*, and that he would do well to •‘ladle out the service pretty consid erable mild.” To this warning, how ever, lie paid no atteution, bouig de. turiuinud to do his duty, no matter ".•hut the consequences might be. Thu service proceeded smoothly mitil the clergyman reache I the point w icio ne asked the br.degrooiu it he took thu ‘ worn m” to be iiis wedded wiib. To this Mr. Rowing Bill re- phed by remarking that he xvas about to marry a “lady,’’ and that any m hi who c died her a “woman” must be remarkably anxious to incur the ex panse of a personal funeral. Paying no attention to tnis remark, the cler- gy in;,n proceeded, and inquired if the bridegroom would pro ni.-e to love, cherish and protect the biide. This was regaroed by Mr. Roaring Bill in the light of an uxueuessary asking of fooli-h questions, “In course I do,’’ he replied ; “xvliat do you take ni ter ? Do you mean to insinuate that 1 am a playin’ it onta her ? I want you to understand that this hyer’s a square deal, and if you don’t just go atieid with your marryiu’ and drop this askin’ of impertinent questions, it’ll had to difficulties. You hear nr-.’’ Still the courageous clergyman, heed less of the brexviug storm, ignored the bridegroom’s interruptions, and read the service with cool ami steady coar ago. Presently, he iuquired ot the bride if she would promise to love, honor and obey her husband. At this point, the latter drew hit revolx'er and informed the clergyman that he xvas last ripening tor mo grave. “Any more personal questions w.ll require me to answer with thish yer xveepon. I don’t wish in m ike a row in a church, but il you will have olie.j ist continue as you have begun. I’m a peac.-able, long sufierin’ man, but the holiest feelins of this lady’s heart isn’t goin* to be pried into by no mail xviihout lie bears from me-” ceive prompt attention.: * ROBERT CIHLDEK8 Mpt.S.Sm.

One might have imagined that lie xvas deaf, so utterly heedless xvas he of the irregular ro - sponses made by the bridegroom. The spectators xvlio bad assembled to wit ness the ceremony were making bets freely as to whether Mr. Bill xvould kill hiip at the first fire or xvhethcr he would merely mark him with a bullet for future identification. Contrary to the general anticipation, the bride groom made no further interruption, either by xverd or builet, and the cer emony came to an end. Ad might have ended peaceably had not Mr. Withers, determined to do his whole duty, supp’o'iicnted thu ceremony by kissing the bride. The first bullet missed its nark, and the bridegroom, while pausing to adjnsi his aim, remarked that “this painful immorality <>a lha part or the clergy must be cheeked.” Just as he xvas about to fire the second shat— having got the clergyman’s right eir in line—the brother ot the brid • sprang on him and took awav his pis tol. At the same moment, Air. With ers tore off 1ns surplic-', and, leaping over the railing, struck out at Mr. Roaring Bill in a most lcaatilul and scientific way. A ring xvas immediately- formed. The bride . limbed oil the baptismal font and alternately encouraged each combatant with such inspirit tug re-- marks as: “Noxv, then, Bill, bust him in the eye,” or, “Hooray, I’arson. the eyes of the church is on vur! Back up your religion liko a little man !” The eager sqiectators sxvarmed into the church and fought for good positions in the pu-pit,. The betting at first xv.is n tiie bridegroom, but at tbe eod of leu minutes large odds xvere offered on the clereynvan. His. courage xvas un doubted, and his pugilistic skill was simply astonishing. His adversary scarcely touched him, xfhilc the elers •jyman danced around him, now clos ing an eye and now shaking the foundations of his teeth with smiling confidence that creat d the wildest enthusiasm. In twenty minutes and five rounds he had reduced bis man to peifi ct helplessness. Mr. Roaring Bill cried “enough,’’ the spectators cheered, and the bride, descending from her porch, kissed the clergyman with hearty frankness, and informed him that she should never allow any husl«u<l of hers to come between her and her religion. Such was the public enthusiasm in Leadville over the clergyman's victos ry that no less than thirty h-ading citixera came forxrard and offered to be confirmed as an evidence of their good will provided the rector xvould refrain from^ interfering with cards playing and other usual Sunday recre ations. As has been sad, the admi ration of Leadville is about to bt expressed in silversmouuted pistols, and tiicre is no doubt that the pros perity of St. George’s church and the popularity of Mr. Withers are fully assured. The Grand Grant Rally. • The Telegrams from Stephens and Toombs, and the Speech of Grant. There xvas a big Grant rally in Chicago tiie other day.

[Applause.] Railroad Possibilities .in Georgia. Th'i M. and B | Road. On the 14th inst. the following na- ier xvas served on Governor Colquitt: i Slate of Georgia, Fulton county. To his Excellency, A 1 H. Colquitt, Governor ot the state of Georgia: You are hereby notified, that I for the company which I represented, clrim to be the highest and best bid der at tiie sale of the lc iso of the Mas con and Brun-xvick railroad (the pro- peity of the State) at Macon Georei t* on the Gth day of Novemlier, 187'.l. and that I demand and c'aiin the sa : I railroad under the lease coutract a- set forth in the provisions of an act pissed by tha General Assembly of the State ot Georgia, approve 1 Sept ember 3, 1S79, and acts amendatory s the same. I insist, that under the pr i t viou ot this special act which must be construed strictly, especially the -ec iu.l section of the same, xvhich reads as follows: [Hero follows the second section of the act.] That there xvas leasing at said time, and a full iispodiio-i of tin pxperty under the law to one of the bidders. I further insist that I was the highest and b "-t bidder at the time tho said rail- t-l xv h declared leased, and that it xv is so declared by the auctioneer trying the sale. As to the tact that I xv a such bidder and thet there was a sale of the lei-m, I am now ready to sh-itv aad ask permission to snbmit to your Excellency proof of the same for consideraiinn. I further ia4<t that there xvas no legal bid ma lc by any other person for llm lease of said road, xvho had un der the provsioas of this special act, a right to bid at said sale or a right to lei-if said roa I, and that for these rea sons I am. when' I comply with the terms of th- act,' entitled to said rail road, and these facts I am ready]to sh >w your Excellency, and hero ask that I may do the sun-". Being ready to show all that { have stated as facts, and resting the rights of my company upon the law, I most respectfully demand the carrying out of the terms of the learn ontract, according to the provisions of the above referred to act; holding myself in readiness to comply with all of its provi-ions. Respectfully submitted. EL T. Paine, For the Company. This 14th day ol Novemlier, 1879. The Macon Teltgrip'i says it is well kuown that after tho close’ of tiie bid ding Mr. Paine, who did the bidding for Mr. Siautou’s party, took the names of nearly one hiiudred persons wlio agreed xviin him that he was the highest bidder at the sale of the lease, and he will probably use their testi mony in tbo furtherance of his claims before tlit Governor. Failing to ob tain tbe road under tin- present de mand, lfis likely an inju icti m will be rcsortedjco to prevent aaoUicr side. {Atlanta Conatl: ution.] It is uot at all impossible that we shad have within one year from this date three grand lines, each under sympathetic control, and all three competing with each other, stretching from the west to the ocean. The three xvestern points"ot rendezvous will be, in thu event, Cincinnati, Ev ansville and Louisville. Each ofthese lines' will pour the current of freight and .travel through Georgia. The threo i ocean points touched will bo Brunswick, Savannah and Port Roy* al. We shall have one line under the control of Mc-srs. Cole and Brown, embracing the Nashville and Chatt mooga road, which stretches from Evansville to Chattanooga; the Western and Atlantic, xvhich stretches from Chattanooga to Atlanta, and the *>I icon and Brunswick, xvhich, xvith i s extension, xvill reach from Atlanta 11 Brunswick. The seco ul lino xvill be controlled, as far as we are con cerned, by Air. Wa-iley, anil xvill comprise only tho Cincinnati South era, which connects Cincinnati wi h Chaltauo >ga, and the C-ntral which, xvith thd extension from Carrolltou, will o nnret Savannah with Chatta- uooga. The third lim xvill be con trolled by the Georgia railroad peo ple, we should guess, and xvill com piiso the Louisville and Nashville, xvhich r'.iuiies Birm ingham now, through the Al ib iim and Chat anon, ga wlich it contro's, will roach At lanta tur.righ life Gen "gi i Western extension, an-J xvill d "uhlless li-re combine with the Georgia road for an outlet at Port Royal. Them three systems complete I won 1 develop,the int'Te.sts »f tho South in the most wood'-rful decree We -houl-l have Iran*-All antic South American -hips at e ich of our ports, an I direct trade xvith all the world xvould soon lie an ace xmplishe I fact. Of course all this development de pends x it :rely aii-l ab>o utely upon the sUQce-siut leasing of tiie Macon and Bninsxvick road, in the spirit of the bill providing tor the I *as3. If the road is not leased or sold—if the lease or sale is blocked iu any way—if it is postponed or defeated xi _• sli d! have none of this development beams * none of it will be needed. If tiie lease is effected, but the road by any strate- geni or assault falls into the hands of the Ceiitr d road or of persons friend ly to that road, these devel.qmieuls will be blocked. In that case th- lesses would simply decline to build the exten-ion. They are alloxvcJ five years in xvhich to do it before the lease is perfected. They would simp ly hold the road for five years, and then forfeit the lease a-ni give it up. The grand schemes that ivc have out lined therefore depend absolutely, ns xve Imve said before, upon tae success ful leasing of the M. & B railroad, and its lease to persons who are in no way conn-ctcd xvith the Central road, or interested in its welfare. It is the key to thu situation, ami in the hands of the right men xvill u dock Vast treasures and inaugurate vast enter prises. Leased to men xvho xvill ti-c it as the stale designed, and extend it to Atlanta, it will st irt, in our opin ion, within sixty days, txvo other ex tensions—one from C.irrollon to Chat tanooga, and the other from B rming- bam to Atlanta. The _ Clement Attachment Mr. Chas. H. Smith (Bill Arp) ile- What tho South Nead3. A Oorrcsimn tcutof the Philadelphia Tim s h is had a long intcrvicxv with Mr. Bayard, and sounded him s iipon all the sadcut questions of the day. The replies of the’Senator'are frank an 1 explicit. lie makes no attempt at evasion, but squarely delivers h m self upon every issue. There is a grandeur and broad statesmanship in every utterance of this worthy pa triot, that should command the re spect and chall nge the admiration of the whole country. When the ques tion u-as propounded to him, “What does the South need tho folloxving xvas the undaunted reply of this truly great man: “ '.’he S uih does not nee 1 legisla tion ; the South needs sympathy and respect Iu my judgment what they need is a realizing sense that they are safely and securely within lue Union, bound up in its destinies, in which they arc to sh ire the bles-i gs as xvell as the burden; lint that they are not to be iu the Union except upon terms thoroughly contistcnt xvith their self-respect. Everything is gained by appealing to all that is higher ami bettur among them, and to case this spirit of domination aud constant ex pressions of solf-eonseioui superiority, sending men doxvn there to see that the trials are conducted as they think they ought to be, telling them they c on trial, and all that sort of thing. No s ich spirit ought to exist, and I would not treat this Union as an ex periment, I would treat it as a. fixed fact that they are in the Union and are going to stay there; that they are going to be part o.t onr people ami part of the government, and not only expect them to sustain and help it, but in ike that part of the country a source of strength to the whole. I want the people ot the South to feel that they are a respected and essential riion of this Union and they cannot i anything else. Now, in order to do that, we mast make their position in the Union one of honor in the first place, and then if they fall away from that it must be their own disgrace; bnt the honorable recognition must precede the other, and that tfiey have not had yet at thejxands of the R- iblican went with a number of other gem men to Westminster, S. C., to see the Clemeut Attachment xvhich the Messrs. Stribbling are working there, aud from his account of the trip xve extract the following sober xvords concerning the factory: “Mr. Stribbling and his younger brother received us gladly.’ They are gentlemen of good education, good manners and addre-s. Ingeni ous and industrious, the; have been lor eighteen months quietly running their iaciory aw ay off in the woods, three miles from the railroad—making about ten dollars a day aud giving pleasant emp'oyment to a fexv poor girls. It is a slow business and a lit tle business, but it is simple and comes ivithiu reach of a gi cat many of our substantia) farmers. A " common country uin xvill lint from five to six bales:! day, but it tukes this one three days to gin one. The saws are very small and only half a > inch a part and run slowly so as t<> give the carder time to do ns w-ork. The lint is taken clean from the seed, coming of! straight a id smooth, every fibre in parallel Hues and tho staple unbroken. The attachment does not spin it but only cards and puts the lint into sliv er ready for the spinning jennies, xvhich U' e the same as in other facto ries. Tie yarn from this sliver is certainly strong, even and beautiful. It ought l<> he better than yarn made f om crn-hexl anil tangled cotton la k 'li from compr ssed b.dc->, whether it i* or nut. There is no gushing fortune in the business; no 100 per cent nor 50 but it seems to he n solid substantial hi ves'maul for the farmers of our conn- try and xvill add -5 per cent to the value of our cotton crop. Mr. Kim- lnll is a close o'server and has expe rience in manufacturing the gnat stup'e. Judge Hendei son, of the ag ricultural bureau, knows all about gins. and machinist of largo experience. I gathered from them a favorable verdh-t upon lhis nexv enterprise after they had ihomugldy examined and considered its operation. “This machine’’ said Mr. Kimball “has no striking advantage over our cotton factories as a process of turn ing cotton into thread Imt I xvould rallir have a hundred thousand dol lars invested in them than ir. a factory. It would bo better for me and for planter and the country at large.’’ Ungkammatical State Papers.— President Lincoln was very fond of the infinitive mcod |md with it often n-ed a qualifying adverb, which be placed bx tween the members} of the verb, thus violating one of the plainest rtiles of grammatical composition. The separation of the sign to from tbe re-t ot the verb by an adverb is a slipshod method oi writing, and one that ought to be di-connti nanced by every lovei of pure EDgiish. President Lincoln's expressions, “to be falsely drawn,” “to again recommend.*’ to quietly set dow n,” ‘to constantl y anticipate, xvere bots in all of bis most notable State papers President Hayes in thi- respqct, it in no other, appears to fol low in Lincoln’s footsteps.
