Savannah is making every arrange

Mb. W. E. Stevens, late of the
Gainesville Eagle, is now connected with
the Athens Watchman.
The Atlanta Constitution has this to
say about Sam Hoyle:
The committee investigating the books
of the late county tax collector made their
report to the grand jury, and yesterday
the grand jury stated in its general pre
sentments that Mr. nolye-was due the
county $16,124. The amount was much
larger than was generally supposed, and
the heaviest deficits, were only, recently
discovered. The deficit' in state taxes
is about $23,000, making the total defalca
tion about $41,000. j
Nothing further has been hear)! from
the officers in California. It'is supposed
that tlicy are still urging their claims be
fore the courts. The $CU3 UtfBaxp] fieat
them Thursday makes i about $1,000’ flic
expedition has cost the State and county,
so far. The county has a flof paid! more
than $500 of this sum. , j |
Upon the same subject a dispatch ^ to
the Albany Advertiser, of the 10thj says :
The grand jury of Fulton county made
its general presentments last night, and
say that the grand jury in session "last Oc
tober notified the Ordinary and Governor
Colquitt that. Hoyle’s State and county
bonds were both insufficient, and they re-
jret to say that neither took any action
n tlie matter. They recommend that
the Solicitor General institute proceedings
against the Ordinary to recover .the
amount due on Hoyle’s 'codnty bond.
They also l-ecommena that‘the legisla
ture pass an act requiring Ordinaries to
give bond; also that clerks of tlie Superior
Courts be required to enter tlie present
ments of grand juries on the minutes of
the Court.
Sumter Republican: Mr. J. Seymour,

TnE Eatonton Messenger says: We
learn that at the election in Greensboro
on last Saturday, in which prohibition
against and license for selliug liquors In
the city and county were antagonistic
questions, the latter won the day by about,
fifteen votes; but the .friends of sober gov
ernment claim that there were a sufficient
number ol illegal votes to give the elec
tion to their side; aud so certificates of
election have not been issued to eitfier
ticket. It is not said to the credit of
Greensboro that after a year of quil
peaceable and sober’govcmmeut, she - no-
returns to one of drunkenness twjjEt-.

is what the election means. Thd picture

Washington Gazette: One day last
week, an old and "crippled negro was kill
ed on Mr. A. Callaway’s place by having
a wagon loaded with straw fall on him.
The oxen hitched to tlie wagon turned
very suddenly, and thus threw the wagon
on the negro.
Conyers Examiner: We learn that Mr.
James ninton, who lives with Mr. M. F.
Swan, in this county, was seriously injur
ed on last Sunday, from a blow from a
stone thrown by bis brother-in-law, a lad
about fifteen years of age, striking Mr.
Hinton on the right side. It seems that
the parties had a slight misunderstanding
when tlie boy threw the stone. Dr. Albert
was called in and pronounced Hinton’s
injuries internal and of a serious nature.
The difficulty occurred at Mr. Nathan
Sorrow’s,father-in-law to Mr. Hinton.
Thomaston Times: On the 2nd in
stant, while a Mr. Crawford and his son
were cutting wood for Flint River Factory,
the younger Crawford came to his death
under the following circumstances: It
seems that they liaa cut one tree down
and it had lodged against another, and
fearing that one would lodge also, they
placed a heavy prop against it to force it
to fall in another direction. While cutting
on this tree, the prop fell, striking him on
the back of the head, knocking him sense
less. He was carried home and upon ex
amination,it was found that his skull was
fraclured.He lived about six hours after
the accident.
Augusta Chronicle saj’s: The wisdom
of the Georgia Railroad authorities in
building the grain elevator has been dem
onstrated in the most practical manner
since its completion. There is at the
present time in the elevator grain to the
amount of 65,000 bushels, and as large
quantities are coming this way from the
West, it has become necessary to enlarge
the building. The nominal capacity of
the elevator is 100,000 bushels, but as
space is required for moving about, the
actual storage capacity is 80,000 bushels.
It will be enlarged so as to give it a capac
ity of 150,000 bushels. Tlie work will be
commenced at once and completed as
soon as possible.
Sanannah News: Another week of
the revival work now progressing at Trin
ity M. E. church has passed and still the
energy of the Christian workers has not
beeif exhausted nor the interest which the
services have enlisted from the beginning
abated. Indeed the incessant labors of
tlie pastor and tlie ministerial help which,
from time to time, have assisted in the
work, though exhaustive, have been so
blessed with good results that they have
been continued with unabated ardor, and
pastor and congregation are loath to give
up these pleasant meetings.
Our observation teaches us that th
law preventing tlie keeping and sale of
spirits on election day is a nullity. As
much liquor is drank and as many drunk
en men arc seen on such days as during
the olden days of republican simplicity.
We clip the abovo from the Madiso
nian, and desire to say that brother Black
burn is mistaken in his estimate of that
law. It has been of inestimable value in
almost every section of onr State. Sigli
not for the old days of revelry.
The Athens. Chronicle says this is the
way some people pay for their wood in
that city: ,
At a certain house the wood was thrown
out, and tho pay demanded, but the buy
er quietly remarked he had no money.
The wood man then proceeded' to place
the wood back on the wagon. His custom
er quietly unchained a massive bull-dog,
who made for that wood-pile in
great fury. It is needless to say that the
man left in a hurry, and has never been
back since.
Tiie Americus Recorder says: Yester
day a young lady, while eating din
ner, swallowed a triangular piece of
glass measuring an inch to the side. She
experienced intense pain. Dr. William
Hardwick was hastily called in, and under
his skillful treatment the dangerons obsta
cle wa3 soon removed. It was a very nar
row escape and would liave resulted fa
tally had it not been removed so quickly.
The Atlanta Post is responsible for
this:
One could see that he had a grievance
as ho walked up and down the post-office
co.ridor, and pretty soon he met a friend
and began:
“I’ll be 'angedifl know wbat to make
of this blarstcd country! ”
“Wbat’s the matter with our great and
glorious America?” asked the other.
“Hin Hingland, God Wtso her, my gro
cer sends me ’alf a barrel of wine or abox
of tea or ten pounds, of coffee at the hend
of the year as a present.”
“Yes.”
“While hover here hi this frozen-up

statement showing that I’m bowing’im a

The Savannah News of tlie 10th, says:
The steamer Florida arrived at her wharf
tills "morning at half parst two o’clock
with a heavy freight and a large number
of passengers. We lear/i from the cour
teous officers that while passing through
Cumberland sound, she was signaled by
parties clinging to an overturned boat,
which was "ascertained to be the sloop
Lt’.aas, bound from St. MatVs forFeman-
dina. Mr. B. Kayton, of Savannah, and
a negro, tlie owner of the sloop, were
rescued. The wind was blowing a gale
at the time. The boat was upset beyond
the bar buoy, and bail not the wind and

have perished. ■ A -

Washington City,
April 4,1880.
s wholesale bodging.
The Record shows 118 members as not
voting on the “star route” deficiency hill
which passed the House last Friday. It
would be interesting, if the information
were attainable, to know how many of
these gantlemen were “dodging” and how
many were absent with valid excuses. It
is an open secret hero that Brady, the
second assistant Postmaster-General and
Judge Key’s Mephistopheles,knew, orpro-
fessed to, how the vote would stand be
fore it was taken, and tbat be was entire
ly willing for those who couldn’t" quite
swallow the gigantic grab to stay away
and not vote at all. This partly explains
the large number of absentees, paired and
unpaired. Tbe fact also suggested the
caption'of this paragraph, it being the ex
act words of an indignant M. C., when
speaking of the matter in my hearing,
Referring to this bill and the debate
tliereon, I find leading Northern and
Western papers pretty generally quoting
quite liberally from Mr. Blount’s speech
to which I referred in my last letter.
They aro evidently of the opinion that
Mr. Blount struck tho key note of a whole
some public sentiment in opposition to
sucb extravagance and tbat if bis words
were not minced, and bis English of tbe
very .plainest, both were exactly adapted
to Hie requirements of the case.

aself out of a peck of trouble prepared
for liiui by .tbe newspapers and one of bis
colleagues on tbe committee—Manning, of
Mississippi.
It seems that Springer lias been raising
false hopes in Manning’s breast about bis
(S.’s) vote on the Donnelly-Wasliburn
contested election case, which were rude
ly dissipated when it came to a vote on
the question in the committee, and there
upon Manning grows wratby (and sassy)
aud tells Springer some uupleasant
things. It all came up in the House yes
terday, (under the convenient cover of
personal explanation) aud wasted two
hours or more. Manning’s attack was
weak and Springer’s defen e strong and
generally satisfactory, judging from the
applause from both sides that greeted its
conclusion. Some folks do say—and you
know how people will talk—that Springer
did do some neat shuffling on this case,
and that it was the result of a visit to the
Spider in Grammcrcy Park, who, it is un
derstood, did not approve the proposed
ousting of Washburn and Donnelly’s
installment in his place. This, however,
must be a slander, for has not Springer
been in politics sixteen years and is not
this tiie first scrape of the kind he has
ever been in? At least, so he says, though
how a gentleman of his activity has kept
out oi them during all those stormy years
is quite remarkable.
“PLANTATION SIANNERS’
had a big airing in tbe House yesterday,
but mark you, not by any of the ex-rebeis
or brigadiers who represent the section
wheie our Northern brethren are wont to
say such manners most do prevail. It
must have been exceedingly unpleasant
for old Conger, bull calf Reed, of Maine,
and some others on that side, that a
Southern Democrat was not mixed up in
tlie muddle, but such is the fact.
The parties, who were pretty well ad
vertised by telegraph this morning, I
judge, represented the extremely loyal
States of Pennsylvania and Illinois, and
answer to the names ol Sparks and Cly-
mer, respectively. The former was the
jiver and the latter the recipient of the
lie direct. It kicked up quite a shindy for
awhile,but afterwards Sparks and Clymer
explained, and all was serene again. I
had almost forgotten to say both are Dem
ocrats and both light weights, .but tbat
both show abnormal talent for wanting to
cut down everybody’s salaries but tlieir
own. They are conspicuously brilliant in
that line.
AS GRANT
would phrase it, Jessie Raymond has “re
turned back” to Washington, evidently
mimed to do any amount if hard swear-
: ng directly in tbe teeth of her last efforts of
that description. She has doubtless been
sent for by somebody inimical to Mr. Ilill,
and with the understanding that she is to
lift any amount of previous affidavits and
swear right straight along to anything that
is required of her. With a little more
practice, she will become the monumcn-
:al liar of the age and country. Of course,
she can only annoy Mr. Hill and his fami
ly by her persistent and pestiferous at-
tacks. Her story is not believed by any-
b&ayfhere, not even that old fraud, Belva
Lockwood. She. can annoy Mr. Hill,
however, and tbat is doubtless the job she
has been put tip to do. What a pity the
conveyances of life, as the French phrase
it, do not allow a man to speak to a fe-
Louisiana or Mississippi in the event of
hi^ nomination at Cincinnati, announced
recently *ln the" papers as Ml-. Stephens’
deliberate judgment, tlie opinion of some
he)t} Is that this is a case of tho wish be

tion jiS, giving him and his Confreres
and syjppajizqp,. .an opportunity to join
Mahone;and jids repudiators 'ip Virginia,
in disintegrating and destroying the Dem-
iScratiq organization. The nomination of
Tilden would be a very bitter pill for me
to swallow, but not nearly so much so as
tbe Support and election of Grant. I think
a majority, of tlie Southern people feel the
same way about this matter; so, therefore,
1 refuse to believe that Mr. Stephens has
any right oFbasls for thus aspersing them.
To say that their disljke for Tilden would
make them stultify arid degrade theinselvcs

Yesterday, the grand celebration of the
Macon Fire Department took place in
this city. Never yet have we had such
fine prospects for a gala day. Americas,
Eastman, Hawkinsyille, 'MiHedgeville,
Eatonton, Sparta, Griffin, Augusta, For
syth, Fort Valley and the surrounding
counties will send large delegations.
From all sides we hear of excursions be
ing formedfor this point, and the expected
crowd is variously estimated at from ten
to fifteen thousand. The city will have
on her holiday dress; the streets and the
various engine houses will be gaily deco
rated with flags and hunting, and the line
of march will he brilliant with colors.
Flags to-day will be suspended over the
scene of the coming contest on Mulberry
street. * i .
Outside of the parade and contest there
will be much to interest. The Park and
all public buildings will be tlirown open
to visitors; bauds of music will; enliven
tbe air with sweet sounds, and the beau
tiful drives and avenues furnish quieter
pleasure for those who would avoid tjie
crowd. Colonel Thomas Hardeman will
deliver the welcoming address to j visitors
and contesting companies, and in the af- J entertained by No. 4 and shown through
terneon Mr. Washington Dessau will de- the dty> To-morrow morning the Griffin
companies, viz., 200 yards, second trial, in
26i seconds. They claim that they
can make ■ our short run in seven
seconds, which, if they accomplish,
and perform the remaining portion of the
test equally as rapidly, will lose Macon
the prize. They bring wtth them the old
est engine in Georgia, the “Clinch,”
which will be operated by its first engin
eer, Mr. Jacob Stubb. Macon and Au
gusta expect much of this company, and
hope to see their squad lift the hose cart
off the ground when the whistle blows.
The company has one man to haul the
hose from the cart. It is said he will do
it, or halt the entire affair. They come
with a determination to win, arid with the
motto, “To the' victors belong the spoils.”

A.t night, Ford’s dramatic company will
give a performance of tbat most laugha
ble farce, “Fun on tbe Pacific.” To those
who can appreciate good acting, good
music and oceans of fun,this will be more
than acceptable. Tbe Jubilee Singers al
so, will give selections cf fine singing on
tbat night.
Throughout tlie city, everything is astir,
in preparation of the coming event. A
reporter of tbe Telegraph and Mess
enger yesterday made a tour of all the
engine houses, and found a force at work
in each, cleaning and polishing the ma
chines, straightening hose, repairing
breaks and adding touches of paint. The
following is tlie record made in prac'ice,
as well as could ba obtained:
No. 1, rotary engine, 4th class: 1st test,
—; *i, nf.
No. 2, piston engine, 4th class: 1st test,
21; 2d, 13|.
No. 3, rotary engine, 3d class: 1st test,

No. 4, piston engine, 4th class: 1st test,
23; 2d, .
No. 5, piston engine, 5th class: 1st test,
21; 2d, 15.
Of the practice record of the Stone
wall (No. 2) from Griffin we hear noth
ing. They have, however, a fire record
and history as a company. The “Stone
wall” was organized November 28,1870,
and fought the flames with the old-fash
ioned hand engine until March 8,
1880, when a new Silsby steamer was
delivered to them. The engine is of the
fourth class, nickel-plated, except the
boiler which is of Russia steel, and is a
beautiful piece of machinery. It has
done handsome work since its arrival, and
the boys are justly proud of it.
Tlie company is composed mostly of
young business and professional men, and
has done excellent service for the city.
They won the prize in the Bamesville
contest of May 1st, 1874, and another in
the same city May 6th, 1875, over the
Bamesville company, and No. 1 of Griffin.
On May tlie 6th, 1876, they again defeated
No. 1, hut were in turn deteated ty De
fiance No. 5, of this city, by one-fourth of
second, only, a defeat which pleased
them more than victory would have done.
A member of this company says, “when
we roach Macon and get the dust off our
clothes, we will show Augusta a thing or
two. A little bragging gives our boys tbe
‘all overs’ in less than 26J ^seconds.” The
following is a list of the Stonewalls com
ing to Macon:

Nor of tho practice record of No. 1 of
Griffin pan we speak authoritatively.
Whatever it is the boys keep it a secret.
The company was organized in 185S as
Griffin Fire Company No. 1, and reorgan
ized the 7th of Jane, 1866,under a charter
which "runs ten years; when it has expired
it will be extended twenty years. The com
pany has on its roll fifteen men who have
served nine years as active firemen, and
fortyrfive active members now on duty.
The engine is a Silsby rotary of tile
third class, and has been in use ten years.
The best record of this company is a run of
100 yards to engine, reeling off 100 feet of
liose and throwing a stream of water 100
feet in ?5§ seconds. The uniform is
black pants, red flannel shirts, red caps,
with “Griffin No. 1” on the frontpiece.
Black belts, with “Griffin” on red back
ground and the figure 1 on the front
slide. The company as it comes" to Ma

No. 8 of Augusta, the third visiting
company, also keeps her practice record a
secret. They will arrive in Macon .this
morning, bringing with them about sixty
men, as will be seen by the roll given be
low. This company was organized in
1850, and have continued in commission
ever since. It lias entered into many con
tests, and has shown a speed which they
claim is unsurpassed in the history of fire
