A cyclone visited Augusta Ga.,
last Triday night. It was about

stined several brick and wooden
buildings. Comparatively little loss
of life.
A corespondent of the Augusta

The English House of Commons
is not the most dignified deliberative

hiss each other. Such was the case
in the excitement of the vote of the

vote stood 328 in favor and 104 si

Georgia lias seventy-seven banks
Eleven of these are national banks,
thirty-five Btate banks and thirty

A young man by the name of Jo

The public business is too pressing
on Senator Hill for him to come

There will be an attempt to set

A member of the House got in

Railroad Discrimination*.
The merchants of New York are
now having trouble with the great
railroad trunk lines running west
from that city. It seems that these
trunk lines are producing a stag
nation in commercial circles, at Now
York, by cutting rates from the in
terior towns to the West and allow
ing the rates from New York to re
main the same. Large firms claim
that they can ship goods to Boston
and then have them shipped through
Yew York to the West, cheaper than
they can ship them direct from New
York. Thus it is evident that New
York is discriminated against, by
the trunk lines. Complaints have
been laid before Governor Robinson
and requests made of him to present
the matter to the Legislature. The
roads claim that they cut
down from Boston in order to com
pete with liiiesj from that point.
Educational.
The House Committee ou Education and
Labor has agreed to report a bill giving
the proceeds of the sale of public lends in
the several States and Territories to the
States and Territories for educational
purposes, to be expended under the di
rection of the State Legislatures respect
ively.
We are glad to see steps taken to
ward educating the young people who
ae to take the place of the present
actors in life. We scarcely know
whether we are happy to see the
General Government taking the mat
ter in hand. If the appropriation can
be made to the states and the money
expended under the direction of the
Stale Legislatures respectively we
should heartily approve (he act.
But if in future there should be a
system of education conducted by
the General Government, it
would but insure another sore on
the body, polilic and prove deter*
mental rather than beneficial. But
something must be done, if we would
transmit the American Republic to
our posterity wiih its freei institutions
and its republican liberty. The ear
ly future is ominous of evils that
may, even in a generation, produce
wonderful changes. There is an im*
mense struggle to this effect. There
's a colored Minister in Barnesville
who has a letter from Ireland, call
ing on the minister to send a young
sprightly negro, and one who is un
married to Ireland.- The author of
tiie letter claims that he desires to
know more of the ministers church
and conyeys the idea, that if a young
and sprightly negro could be sent to
Ireland, he might obtain considerable
money for the pastors chiu-oh. The
letter b with it a mystery that
can only be solved by the immagina
tion. We imagine it to be a catho
lic move for purposes to u plain to be
here stated. At any rate a young
colored man has been recommended
and we hope to give you in futnre
the sequel.
Did you ever think of the real
teachers of our American boys and
girls, to say nothing of the colored
race? Our Government is now over
one hundred years old. We have
many colleges and universities in the
thirty-seven slates of the Union. Of
the books used in these colleges and
universities, seven out of every ten of
the authors are Germantwo from
other nationalities, and only one in
ten are American. Then who teach
es the American mind, science, art,
and philosophy? We get our ideas
from Germany. It will be well for
the above appropriation to be made
and expended under the direction of
the State Legislatures respectively.
Educational Convention.
Last week represenatives from sev
oral states met tpn Atlanta and
held an Educational Convention,
were representatives from general
After perniananlly organizing, by
calling Prof. G. J. Orr, our wor
thy State School Commissioner to
the chair, a committee was aj(point
ed to draft business. The committee
reported and the following resolu
tions were adopted:
Whereas, certain measures are now pen
ding before the congress of the united Sla
tes, w hich propose to raise, from the sales
of the public laud and other sources a
fund to be distributed among the several
states in the aid of popular education;
and,
Whereas those measures provide that
this distribution shall be made for a term
of years upon the basis of illiteracy and
afterwards upon the basis ot school popula
tion; and.
Whereas, the measures referred to, do
not claim for the national government
the right to control education in the sta
tes; but provide, simply, for turning over
the fund rarsed to the constituted author
ities of the sevaral states to he applied
under state laws; therefore.
lie it resolved. That this convention
dots most heartily approve the adoption
of some measure of national legislation
which shall embody the principlesset forth
in the foregoing preamble.
Resolved, That the educational wants
of the southern state's are issued immediate
and pressing. And we would suggest to
congress the consideration of the question
as to whether it might not he best to dis
tribute and apply s the entire corpus of
whatever funds that body from time to
time, may provide to the immediate relief
of these wants.
Resolved, That as the education laws
of the several states represented by us,
make no discriminations iu favoi of or
agaiust the children of any class of citizens
and as those charged with the adminis
tration of these laws have endeavord in the
past to have them carried into effect im
partially so do we pledge ourselves to use
1 our iuiiutmce, to secure eveu-iiauded justice
to all classes of citizens in the application
of any educational funds provided by the
national government.
Resolved, That a committee consisting
of the president of this convent on, and
fifteen members and fifteen alternates, one
member and one alternate to be selected
from each of the southern states, be ap
pointed by the president of this convention
to memorialize congress upon the subject
set forth in the foregoing preamble and
resolution.
Resolved That we commend this impor
tant interest to the especial attention of
our immediate representative iu congress.
A committee of gentlemen were
appoiuted to memoralize Congress,
in accordance with the above resolu
tions and after some complimentary
resolutions the convention adjourned.
Dcutli of the Pope.
For some time the death of the
Pops of Rome has been expected.
Last Thursdays dispatches announc
ed his death to the world. He was
eighty-five years old, had been a
Pontificate thirty two years, and for
the past eight years he lived under
self-imposed imprisonment. lie
was the two hundred and sixtv-sec
ond Pope in direct succession from
Sr. Peter. He was spared to a long
old age and his honors are more nu
merous than his years. The tidings
of his death was received with pain
all over the world. He had enemies
as other men have but there were
none who could produce aught a
gainst his personal character. His
kindheartedness is known best by
the poor and oppressed. It is cer
tainly a grand record to have for so
many years, benign sway over near
200,000,000 of people all over the
world and be loved by all.
Not only his own Catholics, but
the most ultra Protestant and .he
most dovergent sects will regret his
death.
His career has certainly been a re
markable one. No Pope for ages
was elected in so short a time as for
ty-eight hours and we believe on the
fourth ballot. He saw the bishops
of the whole world gathered around
him five different times, which no
other Pope has ever enjoyed. He
has beatified an c inonized more
souls and erected more ecclesiastical
and provincial Bishoprics than nn v
other Pope. He is the only Pope
for three hundred years who has
summoned a general council. lie is
the only Pope who has ever reached
the years of St. Peter. ile has
been favored with six more years.
Unless the order of proceedings
has been changed by a recent papal
constitution, the formalities of the
election of anew Pope in the place
of Pius IX. will, according to “The
New American Cyclopaedia/’ be those
Nine days will first be employed in
devotional exercises for the repose of
the soul of the deceased Pontiff, the
ninth day being that of his funeral
On the tenth day ihe Cardinals will
assemble in the Sistine chapel, where
a mass in honor of the Holy ghost
will be celebrated by the Cardinal
Dean. This over, the Cardinal Dean
will intone the Vcni, Creator Spiri
fus, and the sacred college, with
their officers and attendants, will go
in procession to that part of the Va
tican set apart for their reclusion,
immediately rejoining and including
both the Sistine and Pauline cliap-
els. On their arrival in the Pauline
chapd, the Cardinal Dean will chant
before the altar the prayer Bens, qui
corila fidclium, and the Papal con
stitutions on conclaves will be read,
all present swearing solemnly to ob
serve them Formerly it was the
custom to begin from that moment
rigorous reclusion prescribed by rite
pontifical decrees. In modern times
it only commences on the evening of
the tenth day. As soon, however,
as the signal for the prescribed re*
elusion is given all will meet iu the
chapel iho oath of fi lelity and secre
cy will be administered to concla
vists and guardians, and three Car
dinals, chosen one from each of the
three orders of bishops, priests, and
deacons, accompanied by the High
Chamberlain and the hirst Master
of Ceremonies, will make a scrupu
lous examination of every room and
corner from cellar to garret, iu order
to see that there are no intruders.
The only door of communication hav
ing been then closed with two strong
locks on the outside and two within,
the conclave will be foimally begun.
The cells in which the electors are
simple in their construction and their
furnituie. They are draped in pur
ple for the Cardinals created by the
last Pope, and in green for all the
others.
The following daily routine will be
observed as long its the reclusion
last : At 6 o’clock in the mornig a
master of ceremonies knocks at the
door of each cell to warn the inmate
to proceed to the chapel. At 7 the
m iss of the Holy Ghost is celebrated
after which ali except the Cardinals
withdraw. The Cardinal recites the
penitential p.-alms and the litany of
the saints, and a first vote is cyst.
This over the fathers retire to their
cells, breakfast, and take a short
walk in che open air. At 2 o’clock
P. M , they again meet in the chap
e for the second ballot, after which
th y dine walk oat if they choose, or
retire to their respective cells, where
a leligous silence is observed after
dark.

\ ork talks thus of the crushed
foe:
“Turkey is crushed, Russia is tri
umphant and England stands aghast,,
said Mr. Talmage. “Fm glad Tur
key's crushed. She was an old
butcher. The question now is what
shall be done with her old carcass.
\\ here are the spades long enough to
dig a hole deep enough to bury it in?
What will England do? If she halts,
she becomes second-rate power. If
she marches all Europe will be set
ablaze. I pray the God of nations to
guide her in this trying hour. Eng
lan. 1 and the United Slabs stand
side by side in the cause of civiliza
tion and Christianity. Look at her
Bible societies! Lock at her mission
ary societies! Look at her cathedrals
and her universities, and her throne,
the purest in Europe, if not in the
whole world! The girl Victoria,
kneeling by the side of her ecclesias
tical adviser on the night before her
coronation, made vows to God and to
England, not one of which has she
ever broken. (Applause.) I have no
admiration for Turkey’s conqueror.
Russia has been suffering and sneer
ing at the Church for years. Where
is Poland? Where are the myriads of
human beings who Lave been strang
