ftltgrn# nuii IfltBStngcr MACON, APRIL 10, 16S0- Numbering the Streets. We learn from Mr. T. W. Brantley, wlio has the contract for numbering the houses in the city, that the work is ap proaching completion, a force being en caged in painting and attaching the num bers, night and day. Mr. Brantly has no tified residents and householders along Mulberry street, that the numbers upon that thoroughfare arc incorrect, and wi be changed as soon as posstblc. All other numbers are correct. County Assessors. The county commissioners have ap pointed Messrs. William Ryder and J. G. Wheeler assessors for the county. The third, assessor will be appointed later. The "commissioners think that by a new and more equal assessment, the general tax of the county will be much reduced. There are many pieces of property held under bonds for titles that are not returned, and many that are returned at valuations too low. The new assessors will examine, personally, every piece of property In the county. Dentil of Willie 8. Jolmson. The public will be pained to learn of the death of Mr. W. S. Johnson, which occurred in Thomasville yesterday morn ing at nine o’clock. The deceased had suffered only a few days; on the 10th in stant,* postal card dated the day previous, was received from him by his brother in this city. No mention was made in it as to the illness,and it was only upon receipt of a telegram last Monday, that the family hail any knowledge of it. Mr. Frank S. Johnson was with him at his death, and a second brother, R. L. Johnson, was upon his way to Thomasville when the sad event occurred. The deceased was a son of the late F. S. Jolmson, Sr. lie was for a long time a resident of this city, and a member of the Macon Cadets. He removed from Macon to Clinton, where he engaged hi planting, hut shortly afterwards removed to the neighborhood of Thomasville, con tinuing in the 'same business. Upright, honorable in character, firm and lasting in his attachments, he was the favorite of a large number of friends, who mourn his loss as an irreparable one. The remains will reach this city on the evening train. They will be transported to Clinton, and laid away in the family burial ground. Fire Sunday Moralujf v About two o’clock Sunday morning a lire broke out in the rear of the store of Smith & Iverson, on Third street in a building used by that firm and by J. C, Van Syckle & Co., as a storehouse. The fire was first discovered by a member of Number 3 Fire Company, and the alarm was given a few minntes later from the neighborhood of the conflagration. The department was soon out, and found the flames underway. The house was stored with corn, hay, Virginia salt, and flour stock. _Tliis inflammable material sent a fierce column of fire and smoke through the roof, and rendered hopeless all efforts to save the building from destruction Standing as it did in the heart of a sqiiare, and surrounded by building of every description, it looked at one time as though the ruin of a fine section of the business part of the city would be laid low. The engines, however, No. 3 first, soon got to work and had several streams upon the fire, and in less than thirty min utes it was subdued. Messrs. Smith & Iverson’s losses footed up to about seven hundred dollars, five hundred of which was covered by insurance. J. C. Van Syckel was damaged to the extent of sev- ty-five dollars. ,n This fire was undoubtedly incendiary. Only the promptness of the department prevented a serious conflagration.’ It is the opinion of all who are familiar with the locality, that, in firemen’s parlance, it was the best managed fire that over oc curred m Macon.

Pharmaceutical Banquet r -' j The druggists of Macon gave a banquet last evening to the visitinginembeis of tills Pharmaceutical Association. About forty guests were present and the evening passed away under the most delightful circumstances. The banquet was a sump tuous one, gotten up by Messrs. J. H. & T. M. Benner, and spread in the dininjg room adjoining their restaurant. The par ty lingered long over their wine, engaged in speeches and social pleasures. Chopping out Cotton. The Journal of Progress, published in Cuthbert, says some the fanners of that section have commenced to chop cotton, This is not at ail extraordinary with the mild season that has been so universal, but the nipping frosts of ilie last week wfll be cpt to cover the young weed with lice and cause it to die out extensively. As a general rule, it is well to delay chopping or thinning until all danger from frost is past. So long as the plants stand thickly together as when just emerging from the surface, the inner stalks are in a measure protected from the cold by those that sur round them. We have seen tolerably fair stands of cotton secured, when much the larger proportion of the tender cotton on the edges of the drill had been killed outright. Of course, in such cases, the cotton came up very thickly. . j How the Usury Laws are ^Evaded in New York.—The Solons: of N*w York have enacted a statute inflicting a penalty upon any one who charges more than 6 per cent, rate of interest upbn loans. When money is scarce, however, and in demand, the law is evaded by ma king all the excess charged above the le gal rate pass as so much commission for the service rendered in procuring the Cash. It is said, says the Tribune, that the lowest commission charged is 1-32 per diem, which, added to the interest, makes the rate about 17 per cent. -This (all grojvs out of the folly of the Legislature in presuming to meddle witlf the laws of trade.

The Speaker laid before the House a message from the President transmitting the report of the Secretary of State on Chi nese immigration. The House at 1:30 p. m., went into Committee of the Whole, Mr. Springer, of Illinois, in the chair, on the army bill. During the debate, Mr. Butterworth,.. of Ohio, said the pending amendment was intended to allow the Democratic candi date to he counted in in 1881 whether, elected or not. If the bill was vetoed, the country would be filled with the false cry that tbd Republicans favored bayonets at the polls, and Mr. Byne, of Pennsylva nia, argued in the same way. If the amendment were adopted, the President would violate the law by using the army to keep the peace at the polls. I Mr. Brigham, of New Jersey, said that though Ire voted for tnis -amendment last session, lie would vote against it now.'

Fifty-nine elected solid Blaine delegates. Seven sent solid Grant dele BY TELEGRAPH forty-four political riders on appropriation bills—“forty-four rebellions in ono Con: gress” [laughter]. In view of these facts the Republicans bad no right to arraign the Democrats on this ground. The ob ject of tlie pending amendment, he said, was to .make the law in the United States what had been the law in Great Britain for more tliau two hundred years,that troops should not be brought to the polls. Never had any Anglo-Saxon voted in sight of bayo nets. President Hayes, it is said, would not use the army unlawfully; perhaps not, but if George Washington were President he should not have power to use troops at polls. Some President might come after Mr. Hayes who would not he so “goody, goody.” If might he a man of ordinal y tlesh and blow], of ambition, and of willfulness. It might be General Grant. (Cries on Republican sides, “it will.”) It was possible, be said, that the Republi can party might succeed in breaking down all safeguards of our lilerty, and handing over the government, term after term, to a gentleman whom it was pleased to, call (ignoring the million and a half of soldiers who did the fighting) “Savior of -his Country.” But. whether it could, or could' not succeed, in that,these who believed that the nse of troops at tlie polls should not be permitted, could not excuse themselves for falling to make this fight. In conclusion, he de clared that no matter on which side troops might be used at the elections, they would be base instruments, of the party despot who sent them there. , * At tlie conclusion of Mr. Ewing’s speech, Ibe amendment relative to the use of troops at the polls, was adopted by a strict party vote of 11(5 yeas' to 95 nays. The bill was then passed, yeas, 118; nays, 95—another party' vote, except that Nichols, of Georgia, voted in the negative; Tlie conference report upbn tho census hill was then submitted and agreed to.
