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 —Baltimore Sttn. 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 PAWS9N JOURNAL. 8.

Lewis was re-elected Secretary of tho State Agricultural So ciety. nox. n. V. M. Miller, aftor taking a modified oath, took his seat in tho hfnited States Senato on tho *2 Ith ult. The Talbotton Standard announces tho killing in that place of Mr. George CL Cobb by Mr. John F. Neal, on Fri day morning last. 4 At the recont drawing of tho Ala bama Immigrant Association, tho cap ital prize of $25,000 was drawn by a man in DoveSy Delaware. A CAttn from J. Blakoloy Smith, Presiding Elder of tho Amoricus Dis trict, states that tho lato unpleasant difficulty between E. C. Douglass and J. R. Christian, of Lumpkin, which originated from a misunderstanding has boon honorably settled. Senator Revels, col., from Missis sippi, who is a member of the commit tee on tho District of Columbia, has come out iu opposition to mixed schools, n© thinks tho highest good of both races, more particularly his own, will be best subserved by dis pensing with coercion in this matter, and allowing the whites and the blacks to bo divided into separate schools. Col. G. W. Fish, of Oglethorpe, Macon county, was assassinated at that place on the night of tho 27th of Feb., by somo unknown party. Col. Fish had been to Macon, came down on the night train, and while passing tho Court House,, on his way from the depot to his homo, was shot and killed, a load of buckshot having taken ef fect .just below the left ear. Somo modern prophet says it is the intention of President Thiers to con clude peace on Bismark’s terms so as to get Franco cloar of tho Germans. He then intends to bring back the French army now prisoners in Ger many under command of Genoral Changermor and induce tho Napoleon Assembly in Bordeaux to proclaim the charter of 1830 as tho supreme law of tho land. Washington .Hows. 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 ter the 4th of March. Puck. The Unitod States Hotel, Louisvillo, Ky., is located on the corner of Jeffor soii and Fourth streets. Klulc I’iiianccx. 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. From the Telegraph & Mef*Bcny:cr. Telegraphic flows.

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.— .
