Li.'ingston in response to calls spoke of Ibe subject along the financial line, «r- guing the necessity of more money. Mr. Moore, of Hancock, arose and jumped right on to Mr. Livingston. He said: “I’ll tell you what wo need more than we need money; we need ®' ,re children.” This raised a big laugh. Mr. Livingston replied that we R owing more illiterate every year and ^ w hat we would do to educate the children Mr. Moore said that the state would * * care of that. “I know, however,” K Mr. Moore, “that I never went to r* n ** t® import a woman to Georgia wtsU Georgia farmers what to do.” This Livin raised another laugh in which Mr. K'tou joined.

A little girl about six years old was found wandering around yesterday on the streets. She was evidently lost. She stopped at Pledger’s store on Lumpkin street. She wore s red dress and was not over six years old. She would not talk to any one and her name could not be ascertained. The chauilier-i of commerce of Giessen and Greise. and a majority of the ro-m bera of the Central Union of German Wool manufacturers, have decided not to take pa.t in the Chicago fair. On the other hand the Berlin Merchants’ Guild and the Mannheim chamber of commerce have resolved to send exhibits to the fair. Mrs..William Drager of Ripon, Wia., took three ounces of pans green, then she went to on outhouse and laid her itnmnrh open with a razor, following this cut with three or four more slashes, reaching into the vitals through the aperture in the stomach. She lived four hours. She had quarrelled with her husband a few days before. Acting Secretary Nettleton has re ceived a letter from F. G. Neidring- is, president of the St. Louis Stamp- > company, in reply to the letter of the secretary of the treasury, of the 80th ultimo, in regard to the importa tion of skilled labor for the tinplate in dustry. Mr. Neidringhaus argues in favor of admitting tbelaborers, beci there are none yet in America who are qualified. The Philadelphia correspondent of the London Times positively asserts that Mr. James G. Blaine is not seeking the presidential nomination. In an edito rial article the Times says it thinks that it is not i»r.pna«tihl« that the familiar excitement of a campaign would prove a most effectual antidote to the melan choly that is said to be oppressing lum, and it believes he will yet be found in the van of the battle, either in his own or Mr. Harrison’s name. A FULL POT. A Yoong Man Finds *17.000 Burled Mexicans Long Ago. San Antonio, Tex., Aug. It—A young man, name not learned, found $17,000 in Mexican gold doubloons a few days ago, ten miles below the town jf Lavernia, at the crossing of Cibelo -reek. It was buried in an old pot, which the rains of yeareatlast rendered visible. It la supposed to be money buried by the Mexican army that in vaded Texas in 1830 and which was hur riedly fleeing the state after their de feat at San Jacinto. It was known that the money had been honed m the vicinity, and frequent search has been finder. _ * MsBlree’s Wins sf Cards! for weakNorve* DEEPWATER PAT CALHOUN’S SPEECH. IN SECURING THIS END. Local Option Legislation. At 11:30 the joint session of the General Assembly convened in the hall of the House to hear Mr. Pst Calhoun speak on the importance of deep water at the Savannah harbor. About one hundred prominent oiti— zens of Savannah, among whom were the mayor,the councilmen and aldermen of Savannah, were extended tbe privi leges of the floor and came in to hear. Mr. Calhoun’s address. President Mitchell introduced Mr. Calhoun in a few appropriate re marks. Mr. Calhoun then began his address. He said that Savannah had asked him to present some reasons why deep water was necessary: But her ambition was not limited to tbe confines of mere commercial weather. Her geographical position was com- man ling and her commercial position great. It was pleasant to feel that all in bis audience were in sympathy with the line on which he would speak and that there was no man there who would not contribute all in his power to the gretaness aud glory,of the South, and thus to the entire union. There was no reason why Savannah should not have all she asked. The plan proposed was no wild visionary scheme. The Federal government had set her stamp of approval on tbe work of the engineer who had worked up tbe matter so it was not a question as to the practicability of the work. The work of appropriation bad already been begun, but all the money was needed at once. Savannah’8 geographical importance was shown by these facts: The distance from Memphis Savannah was G50 miles From Memphis to New York it was 1152 miles. From Little Rock to Savanuah 907 miles; to New York 1294. From Wa co, Tex., to Savannah 10C6 miles, to New York 1707. From Kaunas City, the center of tbe grain and meat trade, to Savannah 1187 miles, to New York 1302. He compared other distances and showed bow Savaunah equalled New York in commercial importance, if it had the advantages which the metropo lis has. He then showed what the vast re sources ot the south were and thus brought out the necessity of having deep water at this port. The commer cial importance of tbe South Atlantic states was fast becoming superior to that of the northeastern states. But New York had secured over $8,000,000 for her har bors whbn Georgia had received hardly $2,000,000. He compared southern harbors and showed the superiority of those in the south. Tbe appropriation from the Federal government should all come at once; as it could do no good if it came little by little and year by year. The traffic of tbe west must finally come through this part, and direct trade with Europe and the markets of the world must inevitably follow. Ho wanted to see the price of cotton regulated by its price in Savaunah, with freight added instead of by Its price to New York with freight to that point added. [Applause.] He had no prejudice against the nortbssnd northeast, but he wanted to see tbe south the great financial and commercial center. He thanked the members for their kindness in honoring him by tbe invi tation to speak. Mr. Clifton then introduced a resolu tion thanking Mr. Calhoun in the be half of Savannah and the general as sembly which was unanimously adop ted. There will be some startling develop ments before the General Assembly ad journs. 4pd tbe ball was started Tolling to day. It will strike somewhere and where it does it will hit hard. It has been charged by oertain par ties in tbe state that several mqpabers of the General Assembly attempted to sell or offered to sell their votes in the senatorial race last fell. And thereby hangs tbe tale. Mr. Ottis, of Muscogee, came np with a privileged resolution tbit morn ing whioh reads as follows: Whereas charges being circui ted over the state that daring the nee for - United States Senator at the fall term of this General As sembly as many aa eight members of the legis lature offered their votes or Buff end their votes offered foi sale and Whereas said report Is a reflection upon the General Assembly, therefore Be it reeolved by the House the Senate oon- curing that a committee of three from the Honseand two from the eoate to appointed to investigate said charges. Resolved further that said committee be au thorized to send for persons and papers and ad msnister oaths to witnesses. This is the most sensational thing which has come up at this session, and there will probably be some interesting developments before tbe legislature ad journs. The members want the investigation and demand it, and so passed tbe resolu tion at once. It went immediately to the Senate. . . • Itcaunot be learned who made the charges, or who the offending members are supposed to be. However, all will come out at the in vestigation whioh will soon follow. TO REDUCE TBE PENSIONS. On account of the limited amount of funds in the state treasury, some measure looking as the revision of the pension law has been re commended by the pen«ion committee. The first section provides that no Confederate soldier who owns real or personal property over the value of $2000, or who has a salary or income of more than $000 per annum, shall be en titled to any benefit under the pension laws. The second section provides that no widow of a Confederate soldier who owns property worth over $2,000 shall be entitled to a pension, under the pension laws. Buokien’s Arnica saive.

Topeka, Kas., Aug. 12.—Judge Bot kin is here from Southwestern Kansas, and in discussing the forthcoming trial of Brennan, who murdered Colonel Sam Wood, said: “I understand the sheriff of Stevens county intends to call on the governor to send the militia to Hugoton when Brennan is tried. I want to say that if it is done there will he no court. I will never try a case or permit one to be tried in my district under the shadow of bayonets. I will swear in new bailiffs who are able to keep the peace and prevent murder or bloodshed.” Judge Botkin exhibited letters which threatened his life, and said: “I know there is a plot to kill me, but I want to say that every hair on my head is num bered and if I am molested I have friends enough to see to it that every one of the conspirators will bite the dust, and the funeral procession will reach from Topeka to No-Man's -Land. ” The feeling in Southwestern Kansas is intense, and murder and bloodshed may follow. AFTER THE LEVYS. New York Merchants Charged with Grand Larceny. New Yoke, Aug. 13.—Moses 8. Levy of the firm of Levy Bros. & Co., which yjtly failed for several hundred thousand dollars, have been arrested, charged with grand larceny. The firm are charged with fraud inasmuch as they allowed money to be drawn frdm the firm and paid to Samuel Levy, a relative, $100,000 and over. Samuel Levy, they claim, was not a creditor- It is further charged that the firm fraudulently disposed of certain goods at 60 per cent, below the regular prices, and other irregularities are cited. Mo- see Levy waa arraigned in the police conrtt and pleaded not guilty to the charge. He was held in $15,000 bail for trial. Other members of the firm are to be arrested. The warrants for the arrest of the various members of the firm were granted nearly two months i. Julius Levy, the senior member the firm, was in Europe- however, and the police, fearing he would not re turn if any arrests were made here, waited for him to take a steamer for home, which he did Saturday. He will be arrested on his arrivaL Heaping COLORED IMPOSTORS Ignorant the Sheaves fro: Negroes In Texas.

Aug. 12.—There was a gen- nine sensation in the house of represen tatives here, brought about by the in troduction of the following resolution by Mr. Oates of Muscogee county: Whereas, charges are being circulated over the state that during the race tor United States senator, at the fall term of this general assembly as many as eight members of the legislature offered their votes or suffered their votes offered, for sale; and whereas said report is a reflec tion upon the general assembly, therefore be it Resolved by the house, the senate con curring, That a committee of three from the house and two from the senate be ap pointed to investigate said charges. Resolved, further, That said committee be authorized to send for persons and pa pers, and administer oaths to witnesses. For several days this matter has been quietly discussed by tbe members of the legislature, and whispered in the lobbies that some action was demanded on the subject. The report is that Hon. L. F. Livingston has stated to various parties in different portions of the state that he could have defeated Gordon and elected Pat Calhoun if he had desired to use money. He is quoted as saying that as many as eight members approached him and Pat Calhonu and offered to sell out at $400 a piece. He is also quoted as saying that he has positive proof on the subject not dependendent on ids or Mr. Calhoun’s statement It is said the matter was discussed in. a recent meeting of the Alliance mem bers, and that it piovoked considerable disenssion, but that the members be lieved it was due to the general assem bly that au investigation should be had.

Atlanta, Ang. 12.—Several proml- inent citizens of Savannah were present to hear the speech of Hon. Pat Calhoun before the state legislature on deep wa ter at the port of Savannah. Mr. Cal houn’s effort was exceedingly appropri ate and met with hearty applause throughout the course of his speech. The great advantages to he derived by the state of Georgia, by the southeast, and by the entire country by a timely and sufficient appropriation from the government necessary to complete the work at an early day, were clearly shown by the speaker, who dwelt at length on the natural resources of the empire state, and the importance of a ‘ 'pping point for the growing section of this great American country. After the address a resolution was affopted by the joint assembly recom mending the next cougress to make an appropriation large enough to carry out this work aud extending the thanks of the members for the able remarks of the distinguished Georgian.

Many years ago, when the writer used the level with an engineering party, there were frequent difficulties with the instrument. Curved lines like arcs of circles would appear in rapid sequence across tbe field of vision, which would be nearly eclipsed at times.
