Albany, Dec. 21.-—Alter • one of tlio the ope: most exciting' meetings on record, th' common council ha* impeached its pr.-s idcat, Charles II. Anaategc, for m.i! feasance in ofiice. The vote was 11 to 5. ) Last fcpring President Annatage, as j tho leader of the Hill Democrats in the * council, tried to wrest its control from j tho regular county organization—the j Herrick-Clevela:i> 1 Democrats. Alder- j man Philip &ns-.. a Hill Democrat from | the fifth war.!, di«l oil Jan. 1, 1S83. The | county organization wanted Timothy .f. I Sullivan to aucceel Kuss, mid tho Hill men wanted Arthur Grant. Tho board comprised nine Ilerrick Democrats, four 11:11 Democrats, four Republicans and one Democrat who was claimed by l.oth tactions. During the several meetings tho county Democrats rej>eatedly charged President A mintage witli refusing to r-*cognizn them on the lloor, nnd at one meeting lie declared a motion to adjourn carried when a count taken immediately a: ter wards showed it was lost. For this act charges were pre ferred against him hv Alderman Brown, a Herrick Democrat. Ho was tried and a report recommending his impeachment was prepared, but boforo it cor. Id bo sub mitted tiio aldermen woro served witli an injunction restraining them from act ing. The case was fought through the courts to the general term, which about a fortnight ago decided against Araia- tage. When the council met the space out side the rail was crowded with friends of President Anuatage, who persisted in making a demonstration. In explaining his voto, Pr *»ident Annatage said: “lie laughs long and best who laughs last.’* mid tho crowd beyond tho rail shouted: “Three cheers for Annatage!’* When tfte marshal started to eject tho disturbers, Jerry Hayes, tho llill leader in tho tenth ward, jumped to Ills feet inside the rail, nnd swinging liis hat aliovo liis head, shouted: “Three cheers /or Charles II. Annatage, uncomipiol ny city or federal patronage, the next mayor of Albany.” The marshal ejected him from the chamber, but he stoo l in tho hall and continued to shout nnd cheer for Armatago Aldcnnan-at-Large Joseph Firiier, a Herrick man. was elect** 1 to succeed Annatage. la tho caucus of the organ ization Democrats liis choice was unani mous.

A Startling Berriatloa of tho Double Deal- ; Inga of the Former Secrotary anclTreaa- \ urer of the Georgia Hedge Company. ! Hid Shortage With the Church to Which He Belonged. Atlanta, Dec. 21.—After G2 years of apparent upright, honest living, and oc cupying positions of trust in both relig ious and secular institutions, and, during all his business career, without a whis per of doubt as to his integrity, Charles Arnold, a few days ago, died and was laid to rc*t; and Atlanta mourned tho lots of an Honored and esteemed citizen. The newspapers printed the news of iiis death, and glowiug accounts of-liis circumspect, Christian life were giver.. Bat scarcely had tho sod settled upon the casket that held his remains when St. Philips Episcopal church of this city, through its proper officers, discovered that there was a discrepancy in the ac counts of their treasurer, and that official was the late Charles Arnold, deceased. 'Investigation of his assets followed, and about enough cash was found in his safe to square the shortage and the mat ter was about to pass unnoticed when, in examination of his accounts with the Georgia Hedge company by an expert who li?ul been put to work on the books revealed a startling state of affairs. Mr. Arnold was tho secretary and treasurer of the concern. The report of the ex pert showed that checks had been raised; bills tampered with after approval by the president, and tho books badly muti lated. The big ledger of the Georgia >.Hedge company was found to be in very bad shape, with a sharp knife, many loaves had been cut out and were missing. What they contained can only bo con jectured. Many erasures were also dis covered on tho book. It was found that Mr. Arnold had failed to post into the ledger a large number of items chargea- blo to himself. In all a shortage of $1,011 was shown by the books. Exact ly $500 of this was earned by raised checks. The bank account, as kept by Major Arnold on the ledger, showed a balance in favor of the Hedgo company of 522. Tlio bank book kept by the bank showed the balance to be only $22. The discovery of this shortage causes the inquiry to be made, are the books of the other institutions in which he held positions of responsibility and trust laden with tho same story of false bookkeep ing? The exposition books, of which h< had full charge, have not yet been ex amined. President Kings berry, of the Exposition company, is out of the city, and until he comes back tho books will not be examined.

One turned up in the hands of a gentle man who had every trust and confidence in Mr. Arnold. This gentleman was Mr. Joseph Kingsbeny. Immediately after he heard of the frauds discovered in the books of the Hedge company he searched through his checks, several of which had passed through the hands of Major Arnold. He had signed a check in Major Arnold’s favor for $75. In looking through hia checks Mr. Kingsberry found this check in a much different shape from what it was when he signed it. The check was originally written in Major Arnold’s handwriting and called for $75. By adding tho two words “two hundred” in front of the $75 the value of the check was increased al most fourfold. It had entirely escaped Major Kicgsberry’s notice until his at- • tention was called to it by the discov- i erics in tho Hedge company’s accounts, j It is also charged that Major Arnold I had used Captain James R.
