A motion was made this morning to
rc-011*1,ler the action of the House on
jwtonliiy in regard to that souriac-
sinisot Cotton bill.
(in motion of Mr Wbeeler of Walker,
h> lion of tho House upon that bill was
imU iinitcly postponed. But Mr. Snow
■I. n of White, thought the time should
he clnmg, ,1 from August 1 to Docember
20, iiviK-c hi* motion to reconsider,
which after some discussion was lost.
Then th“ hill which, by unanimous
consent action was postponed until to-
d»y was again taken up. The bill has
passed tho House and Senate and pro
vides that no liquor shall be sold any
where in tbe State within three miles
of any church or school bouse. On
yesterday this bill came up for tbe pur-
pnse of agreeing to some Senate amend
ments. Ltut an amendment was offered
in the House by Mr. Broadnax to ex
empt from the provisions of tlie act dis
tilleries operating under tbe United
States law.
Speaker Howell iuled the amendment
with another one offered
out of ordnr according to
parliamentary practice which prohibit
ed an amendment to the bill as it had
been acted upon by both bouses.
This morning Speaker Howell con
firmed his decision of yesterday and
quoted two sections from Cashing's
mai ual in regard to the matter. The
amendments being ruled out of order,
much discussion arose as to agreeing to
the senate amendments.
After a great deal of discussion the
previous question was called and the
senate amendments adopted. After tluf
governor’s signature of this bill, intox
icants can oniy be sold in incorporated
towns, for theie is hardly a spot in
Georgia but that it is nearer than three
miles to some church or school house,
and if there is the farmers will go to
work and build one.
The special order for tomorrow is of
peculiar interest. It is another liquor
bill and there are no end of them now
to the bands of the committees.
This is a bill by Mr. Meriwether, of
Wilkes to prohibit the sale or barter the
intoxicants in the Btate in quantities
lew than a quart and will if passed do
sway with all bar rooms. . Liquor legis
lation seems to be the bobby of the pres
ent House of representatives, and if it
stays in session much longer there may
be enough such laws passed to make
Georgia a radical prohibition state.
Atd what will they do then when
there is no liquor here to legislate
against?

Germany Over the Fnaeo-Raulu

London, July 29.—A Berlin dispatch
says the enthusiastic reception of the
French fleet at Cronstadt is almost the
sole topic of discussion in that city, and
occasionally is viewed with seriousness
very different from the ridicule formerly
heaped on the efforts of France to win
the good will of Russia. The decidedly
warlike aspect about everything con
nected with the affair, which has
aroused no little anxiety in the highest
quarters..
Coupled with the Cronstadt frater
nizing is the news of Russia’s remarka
ble preparations in the strengthening of
her army and fleet while new lines of
railway are being rapidly constructed
that, when completed, will enable Rus
sia to mobilize within a fortnight a half
million men on the Austrian frontiers.
The general opinion is that Russia will
not attack either Germany* or Austria,
hut will, when ready, inartth.directly on
