Last night the bo<fning announced the g<lbfcing front of the court jio fitful flame soon lit u; ings with its ruddy glar^. ^ A crowd, numbering attont one hundred and-fifty, gathered around the stand on which were seated General Wofford, Judge Lyon and-Mr. William Flanders. At about &15 o’clock Judge Lyon Intro duced tHB^oraier of the evening, who spoke for mi hpur an<L a. half upon the issues nownjefbKs tlie peopleC * - * - There was-little or no applause, once only was a laugh raised, and that was when the speaker stated that'he did not indorse the “salary grab” on tbe part of Mr. Norwood. At tbe end of the speech a shout was raised for Colquitt and. Nor wood by the friends of each. *-* /• i General Wofford’s speecli resembled that of General Lawton’s in that it was devoid of attacks upon the persohal char acter of'ColquJttj-hut ti^e speaker packed the easy flow and elegaht diction of Law- ton and couldn’t enthuse his audience- m After a brief reference to the impending election, and a dissertation upqn the duties of public officers, 1 the speaker came to his theme—Colquitt, : He thoaght Colquitt mistaken in supposing that the good peo ple of Georgia who, four years ago, sup ported him were now opposed to him as disappoinfed ofBce-seekers. That his head Was turned by the overwhelming major ity given him over “our old friend, Nor- cross,” until now he believed tbe people would overlook all his faults for the sake of tbe man. He thought Colquitt’s great fault lay, not in dishonesty, hut in a mis conception of tlie duties of his office. He attacked the Governor, as have his predecessors in this city, upon the convict system, absence from bis office, tbe so- called Murpliey fee, and neglect of duty; ftnd held him responsible for tbe imper fection of Nelms, in not properly attend ing to the convicts; Renfroe, in the al leged misuse of public fuuds; Goldsmith, for the wild land frauds, and the Legisla ture’s failure to change the convict law, In short, for everything tnat has gone wrongin Georgia during his administra tion. There was nothing in the speech strik ing enough in point of eloquence to enti tle it to a verbatim report, and no new charges preferred, for which we have not given himcredit,il we except a charge that the Governor made a distinction between the white and black female convicts. He mentioned Kate Sothem and her humane treatment to prove this. One of the most remarkable statements made was, that “there is not one man of intelligence in Atlanta, who Is not a relative of Colquitt’s, nor an officeholder, who favorsliis re-elec tion.” ,h -iv -.3 tmrrEB r«un MB.

Mr. W. C. Coup, the proprietor of the circus which lately performed in this city, sends us the following explanation of the causes which led to our severe criticism a day or two since. The letter is a frank and manly statement, and we cheerfully give it spixe. Sickness among the mem bers of .the troupe Is the excuse given in explanation of the failure of many parts. To this-we have nothing further to reply. The circus advertised to come,produce and perform certain things. The circus came. The circus failed to produce and perform as it advertised. We criticised the-dreus. Mr. Coup explains—let the public judge. Brown’s Hotel, Sept. 24,1S80. Mr. Editor: On a sickbed I have read your criticism of my show, and al though I am not able to write, I feel it my duty to give you the following facts. That Melville, the great Australian ride-, is prostrate with fever. His place, how ever, has been (I thought) very well filled by G. Watson. -On the nigh^previous to our exhibition here, Miss Belmont, the trapeze performer, was taken very ill; the same night, en route to your city, Mr. O' Dell (rider) was suddenly taken very sick, and after reaching the hotel Miss Kate Stakes, the female rider, was forced to take her bed. ' Dr. Hall, of your dty, is better able to describe my own condition than any one else. My show must have some merit, or leading papers of the North and South (as far as wejbave gone) would not call it the best. Among these papers are the Neics, of Savannah; Courier, Charleston, S. C., and Augusta Chronicle and Constitutionalist. I mention these papers as being near neighbors. So far as my trained horses and other animals are concerned I' have advertised them as the best on earth and now repeat it; and I can hardly be blamed for the sickness of my troupe and the excessive -heat of the day. One word about the devil fish: I am willing to admit that made a great mistake in exhibiting it with a circus; but since you seem to doubt its genuineness, I refer you t» ‘Prof. S. F. Baird, of the United States Fish Com mission, Washington, (of which I have tlie honor of wing a member), Prof. Mathes, of New Jersey, and Prof. Ver- rell, of New Haven. 1 have advertised it as the largest specimen ever taken—I now repeat it, anil have the above substantial proof of the same, besides hundreds of scientific gentlemen.

The columns Were standing, and the rotting roof, across whose opening the wliite moon was swiftly gliding, seemed just ready to pitch downward. A low, murmurous breeze; shoot the foliage, aud like the far, faint chanting of a hymn, we heard its whispers. This low-voiced bieeze, this only sound which reaches us from eternity (DeQnincy), heard through this temple of the pines above the graves of many thousand, spoke its message not in vain. On we pass, up the river, turning once to look into the hollow aisl<- we, have for saken. The deep,-transparent shadows, lie within. It is the back ground Cor reggio loved, the shades Rembrandt learn ed so well. It only needed a fair face beside the scarred beech, to make tlie picturri perfect, and who can doubt but there Lave been wanderers there, who, turning from a flower-decked tomb, hove paused to look upon the perfect picture, wrought by Memory’s potent touch. And so, lingering no more, we continue 1 the journey.

It was late in the night when in com pany with a companion, like ourselves moved by curiosity, we arrived in front of Bose Hill Cemetery and passed in silence under the arch which, itseltp stands like a monument across the pathway of the liv ing. Not a sound from all that vast rest ing place of the dead arose to break upon the breathless air, save the monotonous crunching of tbe gravel as we strode along down the .right, past the white monument*, to tbe lowly beds of the Confederate dead. What sight! Line upon line, rank upon rank, column upon column, as though a regiment wearied and worn, had lain down beneath those trees to rest. We fancied once-we heard in the distance tbe faint echo of a bugle call, but as we listened, tbe repeated hooting of an owl explained tbe sound. Never again will tlie ranks uprise, nor stir. Never again Will those solemn lines be broken by death, sickness or lurlouglis. There in tbe sound of tlie river they rest. Empires fnay rise and fall, republics strengthen, break and die, and Liberty become im mortal, but tbe changes will be rung no more in the hollow circle of their lives. Tbeir labors are ended, and in tbe hearts of Southern people their-oame- and tbeir glory is preserved.

Governor Smith wound up his able speecli at Columbus by mentioning as Mr. Norwood’s highest claim to votes that he was a “Christian gentleman.” It is therefore not irrelevant to consider his ri val’s claim to that title. This is certainly no religious war. Governor Smith does not call himself a Christian, and yet wants a Christian Governor. The load- til he made a hid for their vofes. -, No-Axe.

Dose, 2 grains after ehch incal. Bismuth probably aids digestion more than any mineral tonic, ana is of use when there is ga.tric disturbance. The bromides are serviceable when the nervous system is irritated. When it is exhausted they do harm.'* Phosphorus is very useful ih most forms of nervous headache;'The best results arc' ' obtained froni dilute phosphoric acid, in doses of 30 drops, largely, diluted, three times a day, after eating, or phosphide of zinc, 1-1,0 grain, in pill, three times a day. Arsenic, as a nerve tonic, stands next in value to zinc. Dose—5 drops 3 times day, after meals. Galvanism is sometimes valuable, but bv ho means a specific. The constant cur rent should always be used, being careful to avoid too groat intensity, lest amaurosis be produced. Dr. T. Lander Bruntou, editor of the London Practitioner, says: The administration of a brisk purga tive, or small doses of cpsom salts, three times a day, is a most effectual remedy for froutal headache when associated with constipation; hut if the bowels be regu lar the morbid processes on which it dc pends seem to be checked, and the head- aclie removed even more effectually, by nitro-muriatlc acid, diluted, ten drops in a wine-glass of water, or bicarb, soda, ten grains, In water, before meals. If ' the headache be immediately above the eyebrows, the acid is best; but if it be a little higher up,-just where the hair be gins, the soda appears *to be more effec tual. At the same time that the head ache is removed, the feeling of sleepiness and weariness, which frequently leads the patients to complain that, they rise up more tired than they lie down, generally disappears. A writer in the Loudon Lancet re marks : • . ... At the Middlesex Hospital female pa tients who have suffered many yeais from sick headache, evidently of a hereditary character, have been greatly benefited, if not cured, by tlie administration of leu minimum -doses of tincture of Indian hemp, three times daily, between the attacks. This is well worthy of trial in those cases of never-living, ever-dying, martyrdom-like suffering. In headache due to determination of blood to the head and in fever the fol lowing simple treatment is to be com meudcil: Put a handful of salt into a quart of ITY. dsj3, Cornelius imire Jamijiarly known ounnpilore Vanderbilt, •Was aftewards in creased to $1,900)00, to be expended in the foundation of a seat of learning cou- tiic auspices^pf tlijj Mqtln and tipulatcsL prdpos* university.

Let us see what influences for good to Georgia, politically and financially, and to the entire South, have Bowed from our having a Sunday-school Governor. In 1870, there met in Atlanta an Inter national association, which represented a constituency (in facts aud figures) of forty million souls—that forty millions which is now (he world’s best hope, and' on which the most of human love in this world 13 concentrated. Leading men of every denomination In tld3 country and Europe—the Waiwicks of opinion—were there. The Republican party is strong among (he religious masses of the North, and there were men who came from States where lliey were told that a Geor gia greeting would be a welcome to hos pitable ku-klux graves. They came to find a Governor at the capital who was not only a Sunday-school man, but “preacher to the negroes;” and they sig nalized the discovery by making him the president of the convention. Straightway THE BLOODY SHIRT received a baptism in the white river of peace which paled its tint forever ! Since the Republican leaders, such as Corikling, boldly avow that the mission of their party is to punish the wrongs done to the negro by the solid South, we cannot be too grateful that Colquitt has been con spicuously, both in the North and in the South, “a living witness” to the truth; Moreover, when a Governor of- a State re ceives a national recognition as a Chris tian man, the public credit is raised. Re pudiation is not associated with a people who choose such rulers. ■ .* IN ENGLAND, recently, was a similar gathering of the representatives of the forty million. The Queen of England entertained it, not as queen, but as a Sunday school teacher. Tbe wife of Mr. Gladstone—as a.leaclier —marched in tlie procession. The Earl of Shaftesbury was at its head; members of Parliament were In the line. Not,tbat they honor the cause is. this raenttou made; the cause honors them. In that, convocation Colquitt’s name was heard with honor. Did it ever enter the wild est imagination of Mr. Norwood’s sup porters In the- Luuatic Asylum (where he has, as I . learn, a large majority), .that Mr. Norwood’s name would ever bo heard ol in London? RELIGIOUS POLITICS.. Gov. Smith agrees .with.the supporters of Colquitt that good men, “Christian gentlemen,” ought to be' put Iff office. The only difference .of opinion, then, ia as to the conduct of such men after they are elected. Now, it will he conceded on both aides that an office-holder should not make use of his religion for the promotion of personal ends, and some have said that Gov. .Colquitt has done this.'

Editors Telegraph and Messenger: A friend has directed my attention to a paragraph appearing in to-day’s Constitu tion, and credited to your paper, in which I notice these words: “The course of Mr. Akin, one of the electors for Han cock aud English, in - taking tlie stump against Colquitt, is very generally and properly animadverted upon.” I have made but one speech during this campaign, and that one was delivered in the interest of Hancock. The only refer ence made in that speech to Governor Colquitt was my assertion that his sup porters would he fouud voting for Han cock in Novembers I hope the governor takes no offense. at that. I suspect that the animadversion to which you allude, lias been excited, if at all, by my recent letter to the Atlanta Constitution. But, after all, what, is there in that letter which justifies your strictures? I directed the attention of the people of the State to the slanders upon us all con tained in the • Colquitt pamphlet, and pointed out the injurious effects which such slanders, unrebuked, will have upon the Democratic party iii the Northern States. I then called the attention of our Governor—our common representative, and the chief peace officer of oar State, to tlie fact that these slanders were being circulated lor his beuetit; aud I entreated him to vindicate Georgia, and to declare for us all tbat neither we nor our.

IX-usm iwi | Turi Evening Post, for 1 twenty years one of the most reliable oigans of New York Republicanism,, arid reflecting the views of men of wealth and letters in the gfeat ^metropolis, says 'of Conkling’s speecli: ■ [L It was throughout an insidious assault upon tlie best character, purposes aud hopes pf the Republican party, and un der a pretence of vindicating and defend ing it put the argument in stick a shape that the effect of it must be to repel every man of generous feelings and honest' log ic by whom it is carefully read. Its only object fwas to revive and reinforce that narrow, odious and maligiiaut sectional ism against which all tbe better members of tlie party have been, struggling for. the last rep years. It says in so many words that tlfe issue of the present campaign is sectional and only sectional; aud in order to prove that it frames wliat Burke thought to be impossible, “the indictment of a whole people,” in the lowest spirit of the carpet-bagger and the demagogue. • • w • • •* # ! f In other words, Conkling, the great ex ponent of stalwartism, after having received the surrender and allegiance of Garfield, has placed the whole campaign upon fbe distinct issue of a resurrection of the most envenomed sectional maligni ty. ^[nd this after Garfield’s declaration in his place on tlie floor oi the House: So fi>r_asI have studied the current of public thought and oi politioart feeling in this country, no feel’ng has shown ffaeif more strongly than the toiuleney of the public mind in the past few months. Tlie man who attempts to get up a polit ical excitement in this country on the old sectional if-sues pill flud himself without a party aud without support.

When they see a political party, conservative iu May, wheel around to tbe extremest policies in September; when they see a candidate, long committed in the most positive manner to wise and national policies, suddenly and publicly abandon the conservative position which alone gave him the popular confidence and good-will, and become the ally of the ex tremest Bourboriism of his party, how can all this fail to shake the confidence of .the voters and fill them with suspicion and disgust? Itis evident that all the great organs of impartial opinion' iri the North believe that this speech, so long and anxiously waited for, is the crowning and ruinous blunder of the campaign. It is an open confession of all that the Hancock men charge—that the signal defeat of the so- called Republicans has now become plain ly indispensable to the peace and tran quillity of the whole country. That the utter overthrow of Garfield and the wreck of stalwart machine politics is fhe first necessity of the situation—as Hancock has substantially declared. The firebrand of war aud eternal hate is thrown among the States at a time not only inopportune, when all sections are- prepared for a busy trade in their abund ant harvests, but when the hated .section of tbe South merely proposes to aid in placing the "bqst soldier of the North in the executive chair.

In relation to Union war claims, the government’s obligations to its defenders come first. They are lasting and sacred. The public laws of civilized nations do not in’general recognize claims for inju ries to property resulting from the opera tions of war. Nevertheless our government has treated with great indulgence claims for losses and damages suffered by Union mou from the military operations of the war for the Union. But, as hostilities were closed more than fifteen years ago, claims of tbat nature, now mostly in the bands of brokers or persons other than tlie original sufferers, .are becoming stale, and, in my judgment, might fairly be considered, as barred by the lapse-of time, aud if hereafter entertain ed at all, should be subjected to the strictest scrutiny.
