Pr.iTn or General Arnold Elzet.
—Tbo announcement of tho doath of
General Arnold Elzey, which occured
in this city last evening-, at the resi
dence of Dr. F. Donaldson, on Park
street, will bo received with wide
spread regret. Genoral Elzey was a
graduate of West Point, and an officer
of tho United States army, who in the
Florida campaigns and the Mexican
war, was distinguished for gallantry
and good conduct. At the commence
ment of the late war between the sec
tions, Genoral Elzey, who was a na
tive of Maryland, resigned his commis
sion, which was that of a captain of
artilleiry, and entered the Confederate
service. He was appointed to the
command of the first Maryland regi
ment, attached to tho brigade of Kir
by Smith, and shared conspicuously
in tho brilliant charge which decided
the fate of the first Manassas or battle
of Bull Run. Having beon wounded
in this battle, Cononel Elzoy was sub
sequently promoted to the rank of
brigadier and major general. After
the battle of Seven Pities, where he
was again dangorously wounded, he
was assigned to the command of the
department of Ilenrico and the de
foncos of tho city of Richmond. At
the close of the war ho was chief of
artillery of the army of Tennessee,
under General Hood. Since his re
turn to Maryland General Elzey has
been living upon his farm in Anne
Arnudel county, near Jessups Cut, de
voting himself to agricultural pursuits

The Kc-Klcx Outrage Ikvistiga
tiox.—A Washington letter says :
Tho special Senate committee on
Southern outrages have taken a great
deal of evidence, and intend reporting
some of it to the Senate at an early
day as a basis for legislation. Thus
far they have kept the testimony a se
cret, and have requested the witnesses
not to communicate their own for pub
lication. It has transpired that there
is a great deal of it contradictory. An
ex United States Marshal and a Re
publican, from a county where it was
charged so many of these outrages
were committed, testified the other day
that in his opinion persons were just
as safe in that section as they were in
tho open streets of any Northern city,
and that two-thirds of the reported
outrages had no foundation. An ef
fort will be made in the House next
woek to pass the Cobb bill (prepared
by General Butler) for Federal Com
missioners in every county in the
South to try the so-called Ku-Klux for
violating tho very stringent provisions
of the act Among other things, it
makes it a penal offense to discharge
a colored man from employment, pro
vided tho latter swears that he had
committed no unlawful act. j

Tho following extracts from a Wash
ington letter, of February 23d, to the
Savannah Newt throws sonio light on
Goorgia affairs in Congress :
Mr. Paine has introduced tho fol
lowing resolution, which was referred
to the appropriate committee :
Whereas, tho Post Office for the
city of Savannah, Georgia, is in one of
the basement rooms of the Custom
House; and
Whereas, tho sama is entirely too
small for so largo a place as the city
of Savannah, and the said room being
also dark and damp ; therefore, bo it
Rosolved, That the Postmaster Gen
eral bo requested to furnish to the next
Houso of Representatives of tho Uni
ted States Congress all the information
he may have on the subject, with the
cost of a suitable building in and for
the said city of Savannah.
Mr. Paine has also introduced a bill
providing for the erection of an asy
lum for old, insane and afflicted col
ored people, in the first Congressional
District of Goorgia, and appropriating
SIOO,OOO for the purpose. The bill
was appropriately referred.
The bill removing the disabilities
from John Williamson, Esq., passed
tho House this morning. It had pre
viously passed tho Senate. This ac
tion was largely duo to tho exertions of
your Representative, Mr. Paine, who
had pushed tho matter with great zeal
and excellent judgement, having first
spiked the guns of the leading Radi
cals and chronic objectors.
Mr, Paine has taken stops with a J
view to securing the erection of a cus
tom house at Brunswick, Georgia.—
Ho has beon urging the Committee on
Commerce to make the rocommonda
tion; but although thoy aro favorably
disposed, it is not possible to do any
thing this session.
The Election Committee wa3 to liavo
met this morning to hear the. con tested
case of Tift vs. Whitely, but failed to
do so. Mr. Tift has not yet received
the important papers necessary to his
case, which Whitely and i’arrow
sliipped off to Georgia, although they
are said to have been expressed from
Atlanta some days ago. Tho Express
Company’s books show no such record,
however.
The Senate joint resolution prescri
bing the oath to bo taken by Senator
Miller passed tho House this morning,
having been taken up by unanimous
consent. As tho President is under
stood to have signified his intention of
approving of the resolution, it is
thought Mr. Miller will be sworn in to
morrow.
Mr. Corker, the Representative from
the Fifth District, has returned from
Georgia, and resumed his seat on
Monday. He does not anticipate be
ing distuobed in it. It is believed
Beard will abandon the contest.
A Goorgia lobby is said to be at
work on the Senate side, with a view
to securing the seating of Blodgett af

Treasurer Angier has favored us
with a copy of his Annual Report for
tho fiscal year ending Decernbor 31,
1870, from which we gather tho fol
lowing statements in regard to tho fi
nancial condition of tho State, exclu
sive of tho bonds issuod last year,
which amount, in tho aggregate, to
over four and a-half million dollurs :
Tho indorsement of tho State is
pledged for tho payment of twelve
and iiftoen thousand dollars por mile,"'
for railroads, covering a distance of
more than two thousand miles, mak
ing in all about thirty million dollars.
This, added to the old bonded indebt-
noss and now bonds, issued last year,
will make something over forty mil
lions of dollars, being one-fith of tho
tax-returned value of all tho property
in the Stuto, exclusive of railroads,
banking, express and insuranco com
panies In regard to the manage
ment of the State Road he say r s :
“Tho samo report estimated tho an
nual net of the Western and
Atlantic Railroad (tile property of tho
State, of which tho Governor was
president,) at three hundred and sixty
thousand dollars. Only Forty-five
Thousand Dollars was paid into tho
State Treasury, while the road is re
ported to have accumulated a floating
debt of over Seven Hundred Thous
and Dollars, part due connecting
roads, balance for supplies and
monthly pay rolls ; making a differ
ence against tho State of Ouo million
and fifteen thousand dollars.”
A consolidated statement of tho in
debtedness of the State on tho first day
of January, 1871, for outstanding
bonds, with interest on the same, is as
follows : Total debt, #6,544,500 ; to
tal interest-, §427,375. There foil duo
in 18G8 £15,000 (Sterling bonds), all
hold iu Europe, none of which havo
been paid. £3,000 interest on the
same is still unpaid.

Cotton Tvx and Sccreme Court.—
j From tho telegraphic dispatches as to
the decision of the Supreme Court iu
the case of Farmington vl Sandors,
involving the Constitutionality of tho
cotton tax law, tho opinion sooms to
have oxtensivoly obtained that the
Court decided in favor of it3 Constitu
tionality. Such is not the case. The
Court wore equally divided on the
question, and therefore, really made
no decision. That division by opera
tion of law, loft tho decision of the
Court below to stand. In a word, it
j was a drawn battle, and tho dpor of
( redress by Congress is left open to the
i Southern cotton tax payers, and we
hope they w ill promptly send forward
thoir claims to Herschel V. Johnson &
Cos. There is every reason to hope
for justice at the hands of Congress.—
