Wo never looked upon a more contented counte nance than that of Mr. Toombs.

Tiirr hard had another editorial “affair of honor” in Now Orleans. According to tho l’icayune, at 4 r. w., on the 29th ulti mo, a duel was fought in that city be tween Andre V Roman, of the New Or leans Hoe, and Mr. C. <le la Brotonne, editor of the Shin. The weapons were small swords. Mr. Roms.i was twice wounded in the right or sword arm, when Dr. C. Board, surgeon, declared that the fight could not go on. This terminated the affair. «city and New Engirt, . As to damaging the reputation of Ken- tucky with these loil people that, we take it, has already l>oen done. Her big Demo cratic majorities have consigned her long since to the outer dsrlmea, of moral de- •ncratr*.;. She van scarcely damage a repntiitioti stained with inch a sliimning sin as that. In oar judgment, then, tho Courier Journal !ia 'chunking away its time by raising suA a "hullabaloo over the Kuklux- It ia poaching, too. on a special and- pet' preserve of the Grant papers and stumpers—taking the bre ad out of their months, as it wero, which is not at all neighborly. But we see that the Courier Journal has gone farther than this. It has aetua lly entered the field through one of its n ip- resentatives as an amateur “kuklut” hunter, and reports in its issuo of Mon- ilay the capture of two or tlueo of tb pm by one of its errrrespondents aided by other amateurs. There being no elections pending In which Grant feels any pariac* lar interest, the Federal blood horn ids have not been let loose, and the Courier- Journal couldn’t wait. It has taken the field alone anil shames the professionals by its seal—which is still more discour teously and unueighborly. How the Courier Journal has the heart to do these thing we cannot understand. But seriously; May not the Courier- Journal overdo the thing? May it not, by its course, do more to accomplish tho results it fears and deprecates than the Knklux.’’ so called, ever can ? We have not a particle of sympathy with or tdlcr- ation for axcesaos and outrages committed on account of political differences. Wo de sire thero shall be an end, speodily and forever, of all lawless, violent measures by whomsoever practiced to punish those whose politics may bo objcctionablo to tho majegity; but we have had enough experience of what crimes are committed in tho name of law, and under color of Federal legislation to Ik? very eager to set this machinery in motion. If the State authorities of Kentucky do not see suffi- cient grounds for. action, and the Federal officials, with fho visions of fat foes and costs to stimulate them can find no excuse for interference, it seems to ns n fair presumption that there is no real cause or necessity for action. Depend upon it, that if the Kentucky Ku- klux havo been guilty of half what the Radical papers charge. Grant will not let slip such an opportunity to make capital A wonderful trade is that of petro leum. Twelve yean ago the first export sale embraced 250 barrels, and the sale was heralded aa a ’’largo" one. In 1801 the export of the whole country amounted to 1,500,000 gallons. In 1872 the export amounted to 150,000,000 gallons, and during tbs seven month* of the present year more than 145,000,000 gallons have I for his administration among his friends bean exported. The utilization of petro leum iu the interests of commerce has been remarkable. Ges.J.onosteeet has written a letter denying the statement of Col. Withers, of Virginia, that he (Longatreet) “went over” to the Radicals “for money," and al-,1 in relation to the attack upon his military record a< a aoldier by Rev. Mr. Pendleton, and offers to prove by Pendle ton’s own witnesses’* that his statement is also falve."—!». Bah 1 This evasion is too thin. Of course’ they didn’t pay him the actual cosh down, as was the case in a similar transaction in Judea many years since, bnt he got the equivalent—the office that yielde 1 the money. Longstreet had better have kept silent if this is the best detente of his oondoct be con make. and supporters at the North. Wo are afraid tho Courier Journal, though usually one of the most level headed papers to be found aDywherc, has slopped over this time. Gr sxaxs :» Ax*tuca.—A writer well pastel in statistics and figures says there wese in 1S79.1.S.S6.000 German persons born tiring in the United States. Adding to this number the descendants of Ger mans born in this country, wo find tho first generation would give tho Ger mans * pro mis of l.GOS.OOO. The lat ter generations obtained by proximate calculation may be set down at’l .500,000. This makes the grand total of Germ and their immediate descendants in the United State* not far from 5,000,000. Tho Germans compose now nearly one-seventh of the entire population; one half of them are In the Western State-.and about one-, eighth of them are in Illinois.

After raving and rampaging up and down tho State, swearing vengeance upon his ene mies nnd telling the people tho great things he wan going to do with the ring, he get* down oriTiix knees in the Worces ter convention and eats humble pie—ac knowledges that Washburne is the choice of the majority of tho party, and that he^-bold Ben—JonTintind to bolt. Was thero ever a more ignominious ending to a braggart's threats ? No whipped cur over cowered and whimpered more pite ously than did Butler when he saw by the preliminary votes in the convention that his opponents had him by the throat. Welt, for .our part, we regret that ho failed. We wanted to see him saddled upon the bloodthirsty respectabilities of Massachusetts—those who have hated and harried us with so much pious unc tion. They made Butler what ho is, and .filled their mouth with glowing lauda tions of his patriotism when he was mu darirg men and insultingaiulpersecuting women down in New Orleans. He was Saint Ben then in the calendar of loylty, ami the more brute he showed himself to be. the louder they chanted - 1 He, of all men. too, in “Massachusetts, was the truest representative of tho spirit and genius of her people during and since the war. He had a right to expect recognition and reward for ser vices to congenial to their bitter passions. It was only natural that acts whose glory they had scarcely found words strong enough to characterua should-appeor to him worthy the highest Honors they could beotow. And we think so too. We have a worse opinion now of Massachu setts’ gratitude than even of her charity and fraternal feeling towards the South. She used this poor bid miscreant when his services were counted to her renown among her h>yl sisters, bnt when he asks his reward .-.he shows him the door. IV e don't pity Butler, l et we do have aa added contempt for Massachusetts. THE GEORGIA DRESS. Macon Tileoraph and Histrxcza— This old favorite of ours—for, without* y disparagement to the other able dailies of the State, we may say we con sider it tho best of all—ha3 lately donned new dress fromtop to toe jndnding a tend which ia worthy of the paper, and pre sents a typographical appearance in keep ing with the able maimer in which it is conducted.

Ox dtt that Malone was not visibly af fected by the decision of the Supreme Court refusing him a new trial, and shows no change in has demeanor or coun tenance. A Xian named Barber, postmaster at Douglass, Coffee county, who lately had tv.y gentlemen of that county, named Gaskins and Lott, arrested and carried to Savannah on a charge of having at tempted to murder him and born the post-office—of: which they were'speedily acquitted/ however—stated on the trial that he had been "ordered” by one E. Wade, of Brooks county, a Federal Commissioner, to take out the warrant. Wade, we believe, is a “ young convert,” and hence his loyl zeal.

Denson, at Seale, on Monday evening, Mr. Hodo, “just in fun,” drew a loaded six shooter, cocked and presented at Mr. John Vann, in close proximity to his person, when Mr. Vaun, not relishing such fun, pushed the weapon away, when it “went off," tho lull pass ing through tho right breast of the coat, near tho collar-bone, of Mr. Win.

The Doctor at that time (1854) was Mayor of the city, and CoL John Quin, to whom allusion is made, one of the Aldermen. The note was postmarked "Macon, Geo., Ang. 31, 5cts.” It was read in Council, and created considerable merriment. As a reminder of old times, and with the Doctor’s permission, we reproduce it. The address is "To the Mayor of the city of Columbus, Geo.” In the name of tbc Holy Saint Patrick, of Dog Days and tbc 1st April, every Friday in tbe year, good Lord deliver us! From all wildcat bonks, John G. Winters' bonk and Tommy Ho gan’s shinplastcrs, good Lord deliver us !

John-'On, growing out of, we sup pose. taa ir late differences, of which the public have been advised through the voluminous correspondence published a short while since. We have heard noth ing of it in Georgia, though it seems to bo well understood that a private corres pondence '■ boon going on between them tor some weeks—t-TSF since, in fact, the ex-Governor’t last letter to Gov. S. It is to be regretted that these difference* have art long since tan settled, and we trust tiiey will be without a resort to the code. \t e have, however, grave doubts as fo tho correctness of the dispatch—at least as to a duel being “imminent.” If matters had gone that far, it wonld ect- taajlj bar# been kr.o»nin Georgia. Tiik Chronicle and Sentinel reports Judge King’s attack on Tuesday to have been a severe chill, insted of paralysis, as stated by the Atlanta Constitution. He gM reported much better the next morn ing at 11 o’clock. The Chronicle and Sentinel the fol lowing: A Max Falls Under a Train and is Badlt Injured.—Yesterday morning as the 4.15 outward bound train on the Charlotte, Columbidand Augusta railroad was passing along Washington street, near the Medical College. Mr. J. B. Hoke and a friend, both from Columbia, S. C., and carpenters in the employ of the road, attempted to jump on one of the plat forms with the intention of riding as far as Broad street. Mr. Hoko was unfortu- nat.-ly tripp.-l up by a pile of sand, and fell under tho train, the wheels of one truck of which passed over his left foot, crushing it in a horrible man ner. His right leg was also brok en between the knee and ankle, by striking, it is supposed, against the ear, as there was no indication of its having been run over by tho wheels. Although so painfully injured. Mr. Hoke still re mained conscious and managed to crawl from beneath the train before tho wheels of the next truck reached him. Mr. Hoke’s friend immediately dispatched a messenger for a physician, and with the assistance of a policeman placed the wounded man on a stretcher and carried him to the City Hospital, near by. The left foot, which was crushed into an almost shapeless mass, was amputated just above the ankle, by Dr. Coleman, assisted by Drs. Doughty nnd R. C. Eve, between six and seven o’clock. Several pieces of bone were also removed from the right leg. It is thought that there will be no necessity for amputating the latter. The patient was doing as well as could be expected yesterday afternoon. Another (supposed) mad dog was killed at Augusta on Wednesday ofter- noon-»the third this season. The Savannah Advertiser and Repub lican says*a draft for $4,012 on Osgood, tho late postmaster of that city, was re cently forwarded to the present post master, with orders to collect at once. This shows that Osgood is just that amount behind with the “ best govern, ment,” etc. SONETHIN3 FOR THE BoTS.—The Au- gusia Constitutionalist, under tho above head, makes " a few remarks,” as follows A widowed lady, living not many miles om Augusta,has three sous, aged respec tively 19,14 and 12 years. All of them attend school at the Richmond Academy, and are attentive to their scholastic du ties. Every Saturday of last year, b; plowing and hoeing, with no outside aid they cultivated a portion of the land around their mother’s home. The first boy attended to two acres, the second one acre and the third a half acre in cot ton. The eldest boy made two bags of cotton, weighing 467 pounds each. The second hoy made one bale weighing 460 pounds. The youngest made 150 pounds of lint cotton. During Ust winter, they broke two small steers, and, with the assistance of a horse, used in attending school, they hauled from the adjacent woods an abundance of leaves and litter. This material, with 400 lbs. per acre of Dickson’s compound, they ap plied to the poor land they had the use of. The present cropof theeldest boy is three and a half acres of cotton. The two younger boys have the same acreage as last year. The probabilities are that the eldest boy will make three and a half bales: the second boy one 500 pound bale ; and the youngest boy 250 pounds of lint cotton. Meanwhile, they haTe been punctual in their attendance at school, except for a period daring the summer, when the younger boys were at tacked with measles. At the time of their sickness they hired a hand to do their hoeing. Outside of this inevitable help all the labor has been done by them selves. During -vacation they have been busy picking out their crop, and on SatunbiY they complete the gath- j eriags. These boys undertook this plant- ' jug scheme of their own free will, and car et. J it out with judgment and dexterity, whil*? other boys were idling. They are not obliged to work, but they are indus- XEW YORK HOTELS. The Grand Central—Its Prc-cml- ncnce and Popularity. Art,and the rarest devices of architect- lire both ancient and modern, have well nigh been exhausted m. the construction and appointments of—those palaces for the traveler, which adorn the metropolis of the Union. These are adapted to the wants of all occupations and every grade in society.. Tho proud aristocrat has his hotel, the more modest business man his favorite retreat, fie foreigner, tourist, and invalid all their chosen aboles. But there i3 one structure so happilv contrived and managed as to satisfy .all these classes, and derive munificent pat ronage from each. We allude to the Grand Central Hotel, on Broadway. This immense edifice combines every known convenience and appliancegshich modern ingenuity has devised for the comfort of tHfe visitor. Not only are the chambers;'furniture, attendance, table, and arrangements against dire, complete and unexceptionable, but the guest is en tertained with an unaffected heartiness and cordiality which at once enlists his good opinion. The most recherche and fastidious, tourist can find no room for complaint, .while those of unobtrusive manners and simple tastes, also, are made to feel quite at home. In short, the Grand Central.bai attained to that happy blend- "iflg'of elegance with simplicity, which constitutes the true charm of social life, and hence ite widespread popularity. It is a well known fact, too, that the Grand Exchange of this hotel is the resort of multitudes of the business men of New York. Here merchants, drummers, strangers and hankers congregate in the evening, and the scene is animating and lively in the extreme. Thousands change hands in the transactions agreed upon, arrangements to sell goods are perfected, acquaintances formed, the pecuniary status of merchants decided, business ap pointments made, and really there is an informal mingling of all the exchanges of the city in this one common arena. Especially also, is it the rendezvous and rallying point of Southrons and the Southern trade. No hotel in the city, perhaps, offers so many inducements to tho traveling public, and in Mr. Powers, the gentlemanly proprietor, gueste are never permitted to want for aught. The Western Union Telegraph Company. * A communication from Hawkinsville signed by Mr. C. A. King, of that place, making certain charges against the above named company, will be found elsewhere. Wo have taken pains to investigate these charges, specifically, and arc authorized to make this statement: First—that the message to Athens was promptly forward ed from this point to Athens and that up to Wednesday night no answer liad been received. Second—tint the telegram to Marietta was also duly sent, and that the answer was received here and promptly sent down for transmission to Hawkins ville to tho office of tho Southern and At lantic telegraph company in this city.

St. Louis, September 11.—The city authorities of Shreveport telegraph for aid to Mayor Brown, confirming former dispatcher, and stating that all the rail roads running into Shreveport have stopped their trains. The river is falling pidly, and communication with the out- lo world has nearly stopped. Sr. Louis, September 11.—The Times has a special from the chairman of the German Evacuation of France The evacuation of French territory is nearly completed. Everywhere the con quered have refused to become reconciled to their conquerors. As the German troops march out, the streets are silent and deserted; the windows closed; hard ly a face is to be seen. Five minutes after they havo left, the streets are alive with chattering citizens, and the houses gay and flaunting with the brilliant flags of France. But the Germans have their consolation, and the gloom they leave be hind them has its silver lining in the sun shine of their nativa cities. Take Augs burg as seen by a correspondent of the Boston Advertiser on August 4. On that day Augsburg, usually the most placid of cities, roused itself. Three thousand fathers, brothers, husbands and sons were coining home from a three years’ visit to France. They were coining back, too, with wreaths of victoiy on their banners—and what less could Augsburg do than receive them with the honors due to conquerors? livery street was hung with banners and with flowers. The black, white and red of U nited Germany floated everywhere beside theblueandwhiteofBavaria. Therewere flags and streamers and festoons in such number that the frescoed fronts of the old houses were almost hidden, and where they did show, looked dull enough in contrast to the bright hues of the decora tions. Hanging from eveiy window was a wreath of flowers or evergreens, and some of them .had mingled with the ribbons that tied them a bit of sable crape, showing that they were in memory of the dead not less than in honor of the living. By 9 o’clock the streets were full of peo ple, and all of them that couldn’t get into the streets were looking out of the win dows, and as the superb body of fine, stalwart, swarthy troops came steadily on —tramp, tramp, tramp—through the Haupt strausse, they tore down tho wreaths and showered them upon the troops till they looked like the moving forest that broke the spell of Macbeth's destiny. Now and then a mother wonld spy out her son in the ranks, or a wife her husband, or a sweetheart her lover, and neither soldierly discipline, nor. fear of being trampled upon, wonld prevent her rushing into the line to give a kiss of .y’enbngh'1 Hr.

St. Johns, September 11.—On the 1-lth of August the Tigress passed Cape Alex ander aiid Port I’oulko. «Lt was now all daylight »and a rock -in tho ricinifcy of Cape Olsen was recognized by Capt. Ti- son as the same rock that hid the Polaris from the view of the party on the ice floe. The vessel was here stopped by order of the Comxaodote, when the sound of human voices was- heard ih the distance. A 1 was instantly lowered. It was about 9 o’clock in the evening, and amid the great est excitement Commodore Greer exclai: ed, “I see their house; two tent? are clearly perceptible and moving human figures can be seen on main land near Littleton Island.” There was considerable exultation on board at this announcement. In an hour afterwards the boat returned from shore, but only brought disappointment to the eager crowd that awaited intelligence. Capt. Buddingtonand hi3 party had gone south in the middle of June last in two boats, hoping to meet a friendly whaling vessel to carry them to Newfoundland. The boat of the Tigress was ogam maimed, accompanied thi.- time by Com mand’r Green r.nd Esquimaux Joe, as in terpreter. , Jl'crowd or* Fsquimaux, con sisting of'two'women’lhd two children, greeted them on their arrival on shore, where they found ajiousc abandoned and presenting a scene of the wildest confu sion. broken nautical instruments lay on the" floor, while fne remains of 4 muti lated lo" book were scattered, about in every direction* The Esquimaux had come from Pond’s bay, and had remained with the Buddington party all winter. The house contained a store-room, ^ a ship’s galley stove, and tables and chairs taken from tbe Polaris. Th uv were fourteen bunks arranged al<?ng each side of the chief apartment. Only a half hour was spent in searching for records by the commander and; his Esquimaux con versed-with his kinsfolk present ' ' : ’.ered ter; for the lower lake region, brisk south to west winds, cloudy weather and light rain; from Missouri to Indiana and Mich igan. brisk south and west winds, cloudy weather and light rain, the winds veering to westerly and northerly with falling temperature and clearing weather dur ing the day and evening with frost at night; for Iowa, Minnesota and Western Wisconsin, brisk northwesterly winds, low temperature. A Compliment to the Butler Babble. Boston*, September 11.—Commenting upon tho defeat of Butler yesterday, the Advertiser says: “It i3 hardly known yet whether Gen. Butler and his champions were a squad or an army when they started out on their expedition. They had a fine time for a day or two—every thing their own way. Nobody was look ing out for them. They not only pro posed to take Massachusetts, but declared that they had captured Washington, New York, Long Branch, Kansas and all the outlying provinces, and it really looked something like it. The convention yesterday, not only un deceived the people of Massachusetts in this respect, but wo trust the Federal administration, whose confidence has been abused, and whose generosity lias been abused in riotous living.” The Pig Packers. Chicago, September 11.—The pork ^ackers* convention has adopted a reso- ution declaring that the rules and regu lations adopted by the convention shall be tho standard in all contracts, unless varied by special agreement, and that every pork packer and provision dealer who takes part in the deliberations of this convention binds himself to be gov erned by it3 action.

There were three railway accidents in England yesterday. The alarming fre quency of disasters of this character of late, has been the subject of much com ment.

This is from Leisure Hours: The fol lowing anecdote was related by Major Brown, of the Fortieth regiment, to the late Mr. Stephen Bound, of New Windsor, Berks: During tho siege of Pondicherry, in tho East Indies, by the British army, when M. Lally was Governor there, there were in the French garrison several war elephants, all of which except one died from tho scarcity of provisions, and the survivor would have shared the fate of his companions, but for his uncommon sa gacity, which rendered him a favorite with every one and the object of general admiration. This animal, in the absence of his keeper, was one day amusing him* self with his chain in an open part of the town when a manwliohad'committo>l theft, and* was pursued by a great number of peo ple, despairing of all other means of safety, ran for protection under tho elephant. Apparently delighted with the poor wretch’s confidence, tho creature in stantly faced about and met the crowd, rected hi3 trunk and threw his chain in the air, as is the manner of these ani mals when engaged with the enemy, and became so furious in defenco of the crim inal that, notwithstanding all the gentle arts made use of by the surrounding multitude, neither they, nor even his mahout or driver, to whom he ^as fondly attached, and who was sent for to man age him, could prevail with him to give up the malefactor. The contest had continued for ‘about three hours, when at length tho Governor, hearing tho strange account of it, came to the spot, and wa3 so much pleased with the gorerous perseverance of the honest quadruped that he yielded to the ele phant’s interposition and pardoned the criminal. Tho poor man, in an ecstacy of gratitude, testified hia acknowledg ments by kissing and embracing the i)ro- boscis of his kind benefactor, who was apparently so sensible of what had hap pened that, laying aside all his former violence, ho became perfectly tame and gentle in an instant, and suffered his keeper to conduct him away without tho smallest resistance.

With the ..’Xe-.-ptr-n of a tom memorandum, to continue the search for the north pole. Nothing of im portance was discovered. The Esquimaux pointed out tho spot where the Polaris had sunk, and stated that Capt. Buddington had given them the ship, but that when the ice broke in the middle of July she floated into a small cove nnd went down. A small ice berg hnd grounded on the wreck, which was in about nine fathoms of water. No at tempt appears to have been made to ex amine the position of the- wreck, and nothing wa3 ascertained as to how the winter^ was passed, the whereabouts of the missing- men, or how they spent their time Hie waiting far the ice to break up. The entire time of the Tigress in the neighborhood of Littleton Island was only five hours. T:.-.- Esquimaux were not sufficiently interrogated. "When first seen from the deck of the Tigress, these people were in the uniform of the sailors of the United States navy ; but they sub sequently changed their clothes and donned their Esquimaux apparel. The Esquimaux, moreover, had but little provisions, their food being nearly all consumed. Neither had they any boats. Under these circumstances, through the medium of Dusky Joe, they asked to be taken on board the Tigress; but Commander Green declined to allow them to do so. After the boat had re turned to the Tigress, three cheers were riven for homeward. ° The assistant ice pilot reported an Ice blink fifteen miles off, and the vessel was hastily headed south at fifteen minutes past two o’clock this morning, after an imperfect search and leaving the unfor tunate Esquimaux behind to battle with fate. Instead of crossing to the westward of Cape York and following the probable track of Buddington’s party towards Pensbury, the Tigress returned toUpper- rarik on the 19th of August and arrived at Godhaven, Disco, on the 23th. nervd up habits of thrift, energy and true j had the honor to receive the note of to- I .

Cheap Transportation. New York,September 11.—The Senate committee on transportation met this morning. All the members were present. Several prominent railroad officials were in attendance. Senator Windham was appointed chairman of the meeting, and, opening it, he stated its object at con siderable length, saying that it was for •the purpose of procuring cheaper rates of transportation than those at present exist ing, Some of the committee expressed a wish that the railroad officials present would make statements with regard to the matter. Mr. Hays, of the Blue Line freight, wa3 then examined at considera ble length, and detailed the whole man ner in wHeh rates wero regulated. Custom receipts were $601,000 to-day. Stokes 9 Trial.

Swift Justice. Philadeli-hia, September 1L—A case of swift justice occurred in Quarter Ses sions to-day. E. Johnson, alias E. Jor dan, was arrested at Louisville, Ky., and brought to this city this morning, on the charge of embezzling books, news papers, etc., belonging to Biley & Sar- geant, general news agents, at the West Philadelphia depot. Johnson was ar raigned, trjod and convicted during the morning. George Mitchel, alias Aaron Mitchell, also convicted of the same crime, and John Green, charged with the same offense, jumped bail and are at large, with detec tives on their track. Mitchell was sen tenced to four months and Johnson to three years. Aid for Shreveport. St. Louis, September 11.—Twelve hun dred dollars was raised in a few minutes on ’change, this morning, for the sick and suffering people of Shreveport, La., and a committee of prominent merchants appointed to solicit subscriptions for the same purpose. It ia expected that a handsome sum will be raised. Point re Races. Mortgaging a Wife. Chinese Shylock owning several pounds of flesli lias been cited beforfe the San Francisco Courts. A Chinaman got into a tight place, borrowed fifty dollars and mortgaged his wife for its repayment. The note became due, and the shop man could not pay. The wife was for feited ccording to agreement and custonv and the creditor foreclosed the mortgage, and proved himself inexorable. He had become entitled to several pounds of flesh according to tho bond, and expressed a solemn determination to stand by the bond. The woman was -already in his possession, but she appears to have had very serious objections to the full con summation of this peculiar Chinese busi ness transaction. She managed to break away from her keeper, and went straight way to the courts with her Of course the courts ignored the forms of business by which she t*u> to be sacri ficed, and the wise judge ton! her to go home and pledge herself no more for a money consideration. She went her way rejoicing, and now Chee Wang is happy with her husband Ah Sam, and the cred itors Ah Kowis fully convinced that thero is no security in woman. Ben. Butler Speculating iii Mississippi Bonds. Special to the Cincinnati Commercial.] Washington, September 7.—Specula tions regarding the motive or object of General Butler’s letter making inquiries of tho authorities in Mississippi as to tho number, character, etc., of the bonds of that State, havo been indulged in various quarters, and tho conclusion arrived at— which seems to be based upon careful in vestigation—is, Butler and some of his friends and followers pumoso buying up, at their present low prices the bonds and other securities of Mississippi, as an ostensible proof of confidence in the abil ity of that State to pay ita own indebted ness. One of the objects in buying up those securities is said to be to assist General Ames, Butler's son-in-law, in his contest for tho Governorship of Mississippi, in addition to the equally or more important purpose of enabling the parties interested in the scheme to make large sums of money. It is alleged that Butler is one of the members of Congress who favor the assumption by the Federal government of the debts of the Southern States, and that he has pre pared a bill for presentation in Congress proposing such assumption. Even if this bill should not* receive the serious atten tion of Congress, the actual presentation to that body of a measure of this kind is expected to have sufficient good effect to produce an increase in the price of the bonds, and enable these speculators to sell out at a profit. Geeat Bailway Scheme.—Mr. J. M. Hines, of Texarkana, was in tho city yes terday, and from him we gather the fol lowing facts: Col. Thomas A. Scott has secured a loan of $100,000,000 in Europe to complete the Southern Pacific Eailway. This road will stretch from San Diego, California, to New York, and the negotia tion of this loan insures its completion within the next three years.
