D., LL.D., of New York City, and at the bead of the American branch of the Bible Revision So ciety, and one of the first Bible scholars of the age, la now in Augusta, lecturing on the revision of King James’ version. On Christmas nigbt a number of ne groes got into a roar at Surrency, No. 0, Macon and Brunswick Railroad, and a lively fight resulted. Six of the partici pants were shot, three having been badly and the others slightly wounded. They were all said to havo been under the in fluence of liquor, but the origin of the difficulty is not known. At No. 6, Macon and Brunswick Rail road, near Brentwood, John Bennett and L. M. Aspiawall became involved in a difficulty on Christmas night, while under the influence of liquor, and Aspinwall was shot by Bennett m the forehead. The shot, though painful,is not dangerous. We learn that the community are very much down on Bennett, and denounce his act as cowardly. Wit. REILLY, who was cut by Edward Decker in Savannah on Christmas eve, died on Tuesday from the effect of his wound. Palestine Uommandery No. 7, of Sa vannah, and Georgia Commsndery No. 1, of Augusta, went over to Charleston to Vend the hundredth anniversary of the South Carolina Commandery No. 1 of K. T., of that city, which took place Wednes day. T. B. McCrena, white, of Savannah, shot a colored woman, Julia Johnson, in a row near the “old fort” in that city. The wound is not fatal. Atlanta Constitution: Monday night at a late hour the attention of the watch man in the Air-Line yard was attracted by the shouts of a man, and on making a search lie discovered Aleck Mayfield, a negro, fastened up In the fire-box of a lo comotive, which had just come in on the Air-Line. He had crawled into the fire box at Flowery Branch and closed the door after him, fastening himself in a place from which he could not escape. AUOCSTA Chronicle: Before Judge Claiborne Snead yesterday in chambers, as chancellor, a very interesting rase in equity was taken up. It is a bill filed by Rev. W. H. Harrison, as executor of Mrs. Harrison’s estate, asking for direction liow to manage the estate, and also for an in junction to restrain creditore witli judg ment liens from levying the same until such direction is given. J. C. Warner, trustee, and numerous other creditors of Hasleton & Harrison and W. H. Harri son, Jr., ask, on the other baud, for the appointment or a r-n I.or. Dublin Gazette: Last Monday night, in the lower edge of Johnson county, three drunken desperadoes were guilty of con duct such aa deserves the censure of all good people, the dlsgust'of bad and the punishment of the law iu its severest terms. The exact number is not known, hut is supposed there were three. While Intoxicated they blockaded the roads in several places by building a fence across, tore the gates away in front of dwellings, tore up lour or five planks in different places at Mason’s bridge, where the creek was very high and swimming; and last, hat most disgraceful of all, went to a church—the sacred sanctuary of God— and tore ofl two or three windows and a door. The parties who acted so disgrace fully are not positively known, but sus picion points directly at the perpetrators, and it will most certainly receirc legal jnvcstigation. The good people oi John son are greatly Incensed at the act. A special dispatch to the Constitution from Ainerlcus of the 29th Inst, says: Juo. H. Brake, a farmer, residing in the wes tern portion of the Sumter, was shot and almost instantly killed by W. R. Stovall last night. Stovall had spent the day in town, and ujioii liis return home found that a negro who had been in his employ ment had hired himself to Brake, aud re moved to the farm of the latter, lie went over to Brake’s, accompanied by a negro '•’An. At Brake’s an altercation occurred, -uring which Stovall fired two shots at at Brake. The first shot missed the mark and struck Stovall’s colored companion in the thigh, indicting a severe wound; the aecond struck Brake in the breast and killed him. Stovall took the wounded negro In the buggy with him aud fled. The tragedy created great excitement in the neighborhood. Atlanta Post: The President having signed the bill allowing the erection of a bridge over the St. Mary’s river, the com- pletioi. o: the Wayctoss and Jacksonville railroad will be pushed ahead with re newed vigor. With steel rails and a solid road-bed this new route will give the Sa vannah, Florida and Western railway a short cut to Jacksonville, and make that the great through line of travel from the North and West to the fair and sunny land of Florida. Columbus EnquirerAbout 10 o’clock last night a negro came to police head quarters and reported that Jim Hill, col ored, had been badly burned at the wharf. A reporter went to the spot and found the poor fellow suffering the agonies oftbe damned. Some time ago be was scalded at Sample's mill at the time of the boiler explosion, and since been subject to fits. Having no friends or money he found shelter where he could and begged his bread. Recently he has been sleeping in the old bull of the Holt, which is lying on the wharf. Last night a good hearted old womau went down to carry him some supper, and found him lying near the fire, a portion of his clothes still in flames. She extinguished the fire and ran to the steam er Everingham for assistance. Several of the hands carried him near the boat and did all possible for him, while a messen ger went for a physician. His bead and Tight side of the face are terribly burned, the right eye being entirely ont. The right breast, shoulder and arm are In a terrible condition, the arm being burned almoettothe bone. Dr. Jolinston, city physician, was sent for, and bad him re moved uxjiio hospital. It is thought he cannot recover. Atlanta Post-Appeal: Yesterday a young inau who is a clerk lu a large dry goods store in our efty, was out in towu exercising himself for a while out in the suburbs, osteuiibly, we suppose, for the dual purpose of sight-seeing and the im provement ofhis health ; and having de layed his return till he became anxious to make a hasty return to the store, lie jumped aboard of an incoming train and rode up to tbe car shed. But Instead of making a bee line for his place of business, he was met by a brace of policemen, who were on the lookout for a man who had stolen some money in a sister city, and thinking they had the right man, took htm to jail, which trouble our young man might have saved hhuaelf had be only asked tbe officers to accompany him to the store of his employ ers, that they might identify him and sat- iify the cops that they bad got bold of the wrong man. It was merely a case of mistaken identity, and as soon as our health and pleasure-seeking youth sent for some of his friends, who came and identi fied him, he was released, and went on his way a wiser and happier man, and no donbe'will mind his P’s aud Q’s sharper tban ever hereafter- Albany JSlews and Adtcrtiser: On Christmas nigbt the residence on Mr. J. Hatcher’s place, formerly known as the Aarcu Jones’ place, nine miles west of Albany, was entirely destroyed by fire. The bouse was occupied by Mr. B. E. Powell, superintendent of tbe plantation. It was t large building, two stones and basement, with nine rooms. Iu onginal cost of building was $5,000. The insurance on the bouse was for only $1,200, and the Columbus Mississippi Company, rep resented by Mean. E. L. Wright & Co., bean this loss. The fire is supposed to have been accidental, and first caught on th Tfl* > HoH. IL W. Hollaed.—Colom bo, limes: An exchange says: ‘-Tho rep resentative* of the slave-owning interest in the Brazilian Chamber of Deputies are iudisusui that United States Minister Hil liard should have attended an anti-slavery banquet at Rio Janeiro recently. The president of the Chamber, iu reply to the ' that Mr. Clark has been offered a position Omments of the Deputies, said that he *t ths Savannah office. Why Hot give did not thiuk that It was the gevemmenl’s : Mr. C. the agency here ? He is efficient, duty to inquire into Mr. Uillsrd's individ ual sympathies or his individual acU. Be tides, the government, he said, was in sympathy with tbe agitation so long as it acted within the law.” If Mr. Hilliard manages this little matter with his usual skill, it will go a long way toward secur ing his re-appointment to theplacehe now holds, if he wanu it. A little persecution for the nesro’s sake is a strong card at Washington, although the negroes may he in Brazil. Albany News and Advertiser: Wheth er or not the recent failure in our city has anything to do with the present commo tion among the colored people, it is a fact, nevertheless, that many of them appear to be unsettled in their places for another year, and there is an abundant supply of labor, willing to hire for another year. The roads of the county are lined with wagons, moving people from one planta tion to another. We have never witnessed so much moving since ’(S5 and ’G8, when everything was in an uusettled condition. A great niauy colored people in this sec tion have been in the liaiii’ of planting on their own account. They would get tbe warehousemen to accept for them, give mortgage upon crop and mule, and risk chances on result. The experience of the past will probably stop such accom modations on the part of warehousemen, and it seems the colored man will again have to return to labor under white man agement. The snow has stopped the street cars In Atlanta, and the Constitution gets up a blow over it, just as If It wasn’t cold already. Riciiabdson, of the Nietos, was mad because they didn’t have any suow in Sa vannah. He couldn’t publish an original contribution he has had on handsome time, entitled “The Beautiful Snow,” and he will never forgive Harris, of the Atlanta Constitution, for overreaching him in this matter. Tbe Constitution man swears he wrote it, and has been carrying it in his breeches pocket anti! it lias become “frozened over” and so soiled that Dora Shaw herself, however naughty she may have acted, would have never recognized it as the original. The poem appeared in the Constitution of the 30tli. Tue new desk for the post-office In Co lumbus was destroyed in the general smash up on the Air-Line Railroad near Charlotte, North Carolina, last week. Al so two boxes of presents for the versatile Matt O'Brien, of Columbus. Matt said he didn’t care about the presents bat he would like to have seen what kiud of boxes they^verc sent in. The Columbus Enquirer is surprised at the Telegraph for not appreciating the “Revelers,” and excuses it on the ground that tastes differ. Columbus did not liko Mrs. Oats, but she was very pop ular in Macon. We always prefer oats to midnight revels. There is something in the uame of Revelers that charms the En quirer man. Columbus Times: Yesterday the fur nace at the college was healed up with anthracite coal and the heat was so great that the grating melted and the bottom dropped out. In consequence, Mr. Key informs us that Prof. Glenn will suspend hi3 school for tbe balance of the week. He will have to send North to have the parts replaced, which will require several days. Columbia Advertiser: Eight hales of cotton were discovered ou fire Friday morning last, on tbe depot platform, just in time to prevent, probably, the destruc tion of tbe entire business portion of Har lem. As it happened, though, not a great deal of damage was done, as the cotton was speedily removed from the platform and the fire extinguished. The tire orig inated from the popping of a cap in a toy- pistol, in the hands of a little boy who was at the time near the cotton. It was purely accidental, of course, but it adds one more to the already long list of seri ous accidents caused by this dangerous toy, aud parents should prevent tlieir children from using them. Five of tbe bales belonged to M. B. Hatcher. Atlanta Post: Major Cook, of the station house, says that the treeze in At lanta since yesterday morning is the most severe that has been known in Atlanta for fifty years. The Major says he has been iu, or within one hundred miles of Atlanta every winter for fifty years, and he knows that there has not been so hard a freeze as the present one. A dispatch to the Savannah News from Warrenton, of December 20th, says: The Grand Division of the Sons of Tem perance of Georgia met hero this morning. The division was received at a public meeting .at the Baptist church. An ad dress of welcome was delivered by Judge Pottle. It was responded to by J. B. G. O’Neill, aud was followed by an address by P. W. P., C. O. Lamotte. A new division of the Sons of Temperance and a lodge of Good Templars were organized. The loliowing grand officers were elected lor the ensuing term: E. L. Neidlinger, G. W. P.; J. T. Lee, G. W. A.; J. B. G. O’Neill, G. Scribe; H. W. Dennis, G. T.; T. N. Pool, Chaplain; E. H. Williamson, G. C.; W. B. Mell, G. S.; C. O. Lamotte and T. N. Pool, Grand Lecturers. The Southern Templar, of Atlanta, was adopt ed as the organ of the division. The officers were duly installed, as also were the officers or the newly organized divis ion. The meeting was an extremely profitable one, and the hospitality ot the citizens was generous and abundant. Sa vannah was selected as tbe next place of meeting, on December 20th, next. Columbus Enquirer: Early yesterday morning an accident occurred on the Vicksburg and Brunswick. Tbe Ciayton bound train, when about sixteen miles from Eufauls, jumped the trsck and rolled down an embankment. Tbe fireman, Loss Watts, colored, wss killed and three freight cars and tlie engine wrecked. No one else was hurt. Columbus Times: Miss N.E.McBride, of Chattahoochee county, died on Tues day niglit last. She was stricken with paralysis five weeks ago, aud has been gradually sinking till death relieved her of all her suffering. She was a good and noble woman and consistent Christian, aud iter death will be deeply regretted by those who knew her. She was a sister to Mrs. M. J. Wardlaw and of Dr. M. C. Wardlaw. Her age was about seventy years. The remains will be interred in the McBride family burying ground, some ten or twelve miles southeast .of the city, tnis morning at 11 o’clock. Savannah News: Rev. Robert Mac Doncil, of Savannah, and Miss Tochie Williams, the only daughter of Professor W. D. Williams, principal of tbe Blind Academy, of Macon, were married at tbe residence of tbe bride’s father, on Tues day evening. The groom is under ap pointment as missionary of the Methodist Episcopal Church South to the City of Mexico, and the young couple will leave for their distant home early in January. The ceremony was performed by Rev. A. M. Williams, brother of the bride, as slated by Rev. G. G. N. MacDonell, the father of the groom. The bride and groom arrived here yes terday by tlie Central railroad and re ceived tbe congratulatloaa of their many friends. They will remain here about a week, return to Macon for a few days, and then proceed to their new home in Mexico. Atlanta Constitution: The Georgia Railroad Commissioners were only a little in advance of tbe times when they cut down passenger fares to three cent#. Rail roads in other Southern States are cut ting down local fare to make them corres pond with similar fares on the Northern roads. To-morrow tbe Kentucky Cen tral will jotn the movement by a redac tion from four to three cents a mile. It peyt to do this. Jkscp Sentinel: We are reliably In formed that Mr. G. W. Haines, tbe agent oftbe Savannah, Florida and Western Railway, has been assigned to duty at Jacksonville; that each road will hereafter have Its own warehouse agent, and has labored faithfully from early mom till late at night, often alone, and all the work of the office upon bis hands, giving, as far as we know, entire satisfaction to the merchants of Jesup, and it is general ly felt that it would have been to tbe in terest of the railroad to bsvs promoted Mr. C. to tbe position held by Mr. Haynes. Atlanta Post: It would puzzle Philadelphia lawyer to get atdhe correct census of Georgia from the vat lous con flicting tables aud totals already given to the public. There seems to be' a wide margin between some of Gen. Walker’s figures and those of his supervisors. It is impossible to add up the sum totals aud get the grand total correct from thorn. Will Gen. Walker please send us by mall, not by telegraph, a correct and reliable return of the census of Geoigia ? Notbi ng leas than this cau be relied on for public reference. The following two items from th» Griffin Ninos show the character of their holiday amusements: It wss almost too’much to expect that Christmas would be unmarked by any deed of violence or crime. At any rate Sam Fish and Dorse Smith, both colored, for fear that; tbe holidays* would not be sufficiently lively without the spilling of a little warm blood, opened the fun ou Mon day evening out on Poplar street, near Williams’ blacksmith shop. After some little scuffling, in which Smith was the victor, Fish finding the fun growing mo notonous, pulied out his knife and stabbed his opponent iu the stomach—a cutting stab— which literally disemboweled Smith. Fisli was arrested soon after and is now in jail awaiting'.be result of Smith wound. Tbe latter is considered serious, and may have a fatal result. Whisky. The alarm of fire was given on Tues day, caused by the burning of a negro cabin ou the place of Mr. J. W. Corbin, near this city. At the time of the fire several small children were in the bouse, the mother, who is the wife of Sam Fish, whose Christmas exploit is related else where, being absent. One of the children was burnt to death and the others more or less injured. It is thought one of them will not recover. The fire originated iu the negligence of leaving small children to keep house. Atlanta. Constitution: This morn ing the Constitution is called upon to an nounce the sad dea’li of Dr. L. V. Sims, which occurred yesterday morning at the chain-gang headquarter*. Dr. Mims was a young man of great talent, and hut for his besetting sin would have been a man of influence and distinction in any section he might have chosen tor his home. Ho was a thoroughly educated physician, and it is said was as well read in his profession as any man in Atlanta. He was an acad emic graduate and possessed the sharpest senso imaginable. His native state was South Carolina. When tbe war broke out he entered the Confederate army un der General Wade Hampton, aud before tbe end of tbe struggle succeeded in win ning the confidence and esteem of the South Carolina statesman. After the war he located in Atlanta, and iu a short time succeeded in securing a good practice, but unfortunately whisky got the upper hand and the promising young phisician went to rack, and 'yesterday ended his life in the city stockade. On Tuesday morning Dr. Sims was before the record er on two charges, and in default of the payment of the fine imposed was sent to the rock quarry. With that generous, impulsive feeling that ac tuates his every action, Recorder Milledge brought the case to Mayor Calhoun’s at tention and the fine was remitted and an order for Dr. Sims’ release given. By some means the order was not transmits d until late In tlie evening, and the friends of Dr. Sims neglected to attend his wants. Yesterday morning early he was seized with epileptic convulsions, dud although medical aid was soon supplied, he died in a short time. Soon after his death the coroner was notified and an inquest was held. Tbe jury said the deceased came to his death from epileptic convulsions, and the body was turned over to relations for interment. And here ends the sad life of one of the brightest members of any profession that ever graced any city. Savannah Recorder: On yesterday morning Sackett was wrestling with Mr. Hirsh bach, of tbe Planter’s Hotel, over tbe rates to be charged his Two-lieaded Wo man. Sackett wauted her charged as one boarder, wnile Hirshback insisted on con sidering her two separate persons. “She’s got two mouths,” said Mr. Hirsh- bach. “But only one stomach,” replied Sack ett. “Of course I don’t care so much- for the expense; it’s the principle of the thing I’m after. If you charge her double rates people will say she is two womeu, and consequently a fraud. I don’t want my exhibition to be discredited in that way.” “Two mouths to feed,” insisted Mr. Hirshbach. “Bat you overlook tbe one-stomach proposition; bear that in mind. ‘Two souls with but a single thought, two hearts that beat as one.’” This last remark was too much for the landlord, and be charged her on his books as one. “I’ll do it this time,” he said, “to avoid dispute, but in future these two-headed people will be charged double rates. I notice that two porterhouse steaks vanish Into that two-headed female faster than one gels into any other border; bull’ll let it go this time.” Two gentleman and one lady, while skating on the pond near the brick yard in Columbus, broke through the ice, and with difficulty were rescued from a watery grave. A Mas. Pkvbheb, of Baxley, was shot and dangerously wounded by her son in law, BUI Young. This is one of the misfortunes of mothers-in-law, whose daughters have married men who drink. Yi’e regret to learn that Capl. H. L. Davis, the gentlemanly clerk of the city market In Savannah, was very seriously injured In that city ou Friday by a fall, dislocatiug a knee cap, and it la feared fractured hla limb. On account of the swelling and Inflammation when the phy sician reached him it was Impossible to ascertain the full extent of the in jury. We hope it is not so serious as Is anticipated. The Savannahlans were not to be cheat ed out of all tbe Ain,and tbe novel sight of snowball battle on Weat Btoad street was witnessed Thursday afternoon. Tbe snow was gathered from the tope oftbe care which arrived on tbe Central railroad. Columbus Enquirer: Tbe snow has indirectly been tbe esuse of the doatb of s number of cows. It is generally know n that eating evergreens is very poisonous to them, and the snow so weighed down the bushes snd trees that they hung over the street iu easy reach of tbe cows. Yes terday we beard of eight that bad died from this cause, and perhaps there were others in the city of which we did not leant. The extreme cold weather, no doubt, aided very much in hastening the death oftbe cows, but our citizens cannot be too cautious m seeing that no ever greens around their premises are witbin tbe reach of cattle and horses, as it is de lightful provender for them, and in most instances proves fatal. The Savannah Nem mentions the fol lowing sensible and timely sanitary move: We understand that the board of sanitary commissioners have determined to inau gurate shortly a system of free vaccina tion, which was so successfully carried out in 18TT. There is not at present, and has not been for the past three yesre and more, a single case of smell-pox in tbe city, but as a prudential measure, in view of the fact that the disease prevails every winter in tbe Northern cities, and there is always danger of its introduction, snd “an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.” The exact plan oi carrying ont the intention of the board has not yet been decided upon, but will be announced in a few days. A supply of vaccine of the best quality has been secured, and fresh supplies will be constantly received. This action of the board will meet with the hearty approbation of tbe communi:y, snd the measure determined upon will be regarded as au excellent sanitary move. Augusta Chronicle: About 7 o’clock Thursday morning Mr. Mulherin, assistant city .engineer ana keeper of tbe pump, opened tbe door of tbe reservoir near tbe pump house, and stepped Inside. As be put his feet on the floor, the planks, which it seems were in a decayed condi tion, gave way, precipitating him to tlie bottom oi the cellar, a distance of eigh teen feet. As he fell he struck against two iron pipes, which cross tb» cavity of tbe cellar beneath the tower. Mr. Mul- herin’s cries for assistance attracted several parties to tlie spot, and lie was extricated as soon as possible. It was then found that Ills right leg was broken at tlie knee, and that he was also cut and bruised about tbe face. Physicians were sum moned, and it was found necessary to am putate the wounded leg at tlie knee. Mr. Mulherin was doing as well as could bp expected last evening. Atlanta Post-Appeal:: Dr. Atticus G. Haygood’s thanksgiving sermon at Ox ford has been published. In it the Rever end Doctor says that the South is grate ful for tlie abolition of slavery. This in nocent side remark has excited no end of wonder at the North, and it is amusing to read the comments of Republican jour nals. The city authorities of Augusta have increased the pay of the city officers and increased the tax on the people. Tbe News says: It is but justice to state that the recent increase of pay voted to the chief and two lieutenonts of police is really a reduction of the salaries of those officers ot at least $100 ayear each. Here tofore they received certain perquisites, but these having been withdrawn and a stipulated salary ordered, leaves these officers, as alove stated, an average of at least $100 a year short of former pay. The poor private on the police force is left to guard the city, night and day, as usual, with no Christmas present in bis stocking in the shape of a small increase of pay. Columbus Enquirer: The year 1881 will be a mathematical curiosity. From right to left and left to right it leads the same. Eighteen divided by by two gives 0 a quotient; 81 divided by 0 gives 0; if di vided by 0 the quotient contains & 0; if multiplied by 0 the quotient contains two 0s; 1 and 8 are 0; if tho 18 bo placed un der the 81 and added the sum is 00. If the figures be added thus: 1, 8, 8, 1, it will give 18. Reading from left to right it is IS, aud eighteen 11 two-ninths of 81. By adding, dividing and multiplying 10 0s arc produced, being one 0 for each year required to complete tho century. Albany News and Advertiser: Mr. W. .8. Humphreys, an attorney at Quit- man, arrived in the city yesterday with a pardon from the Governor for Sam Pryne colored, who was a convict in one of Lockett’s camps in this county for about four years. Sam was convicted of beast- iality in Brooks Superior Court, aud sen tenced for life, but Mr. Humphreys has finally succeeded ingettinghim pardoned, a majority of the jury that convicted him and the judge presiding being, we under stand, among those who signed tho pclt- tion borne by Mr. Humphreys to the Gov ernor. Columbus Times: Yesterday morning the Macon train arrived here ono hour and fifty minntes behind time, making no connection at Opelika with the Atlanta bound mall train aud the passenger train due from Montgomery, due at Opelika at 9:35 a. in., did not arrive until 1:25 p. m., consequently no mail was received west of Opelika till last night. The Savannah and Memphis train ran off the track Tuesday -evening about eighteen miles beyond Opelika, aud up to 7 o’clock last night had not put in an ap pearance. No mails by this ruuto re ceived since Monday morning. Col. W111. Wadiey and Messrs. Mclntire and Flewellen returned from a trip over tbe Savannah and Memphis road in their private car, and passed through the city yesterday ou their way home. TnE Atlanta correspondent of the Co lumbus Enquirer states that Capt. A. Randolph, of Gainesville, a cousin of Mrs. Garfield, will ho the next United States marshal. The gentlemen referred to Is Capt. Rudolph, not Randolph. Ho is a native of Ohio, but has resided in Geor gia for nearly thirty years, was a gallant officer in tho Confederate army, and is a thoroughly capable aud exceedingly pop ular Gainesville merchant, as well a staunch Democrat. The Rome Courier, not a high pro tective tariff advocate, takes a philosophi cal view of the coal question, and presents his views as follows: The Southern people who rely upon coal for fuel are just now experiencing the blessings of the “protective” system. True there has been no law passed by Congress in tlie interest of coal owners, bat the effect is the same, for a combina tion has been entered into to kill oil'com petition and raise the prico of coal to a figure far above its intrinsic value. When Congress at tbe instance and request of persons interested passes laws laying heavy duties ou iron, steel, salt, woolen and cot ton fabrics, etc,, and thereby increases the prices of these articles, the protective tar iff advocate says it it is all right, that it is better for the people to pay exceptionally high prices for these goods, and that it stimulates tbe industries and builds up tlie country. The coal men are carrying this theory fnto practice In a small way. They combine or pool their business in such a way as to noarly double the cost of coal to consumers, for tlie purpose, we suppose, of stimulating the coal-digging industry and increasing their wealth. We have looked for some friend or protection to try to make consumers believe it Is better for them to pay these exorbitant prices, bat so far no one has taken up the cudgels in behalf of “protection” to coal, and we do not know why, for all that can be said in favor of high prices for iron, steel, salt and other articles of ne cessity will apply with equal force to the case of coal. We throw out theso hints that some bold adventurer in the field of thought may catch up the thread and spin a theory that will make coal-consumers satisfied and content to pay the prices de manded for coal. That tbe man can be found we do not doubt, and he will prove himself a public benefactor by showiug tbe dissatisfied public that they are wrong in complaining because of seeming extortion, and that high prices for coal arc a bless ing alike to producer and consumer. THE COED WEATHBE Trmlaa Late, Paper* lets, Hetera Fro zen, sad a Usatral Interruption of The temperature early yesterday morn ing reached its lowest point; 3| above zero seems to have been the average rec ord about tbe city, although at one or two exposed points It touched zero itself. Con trary to tho expectations of many tbe riv er did not freeze over, a fact which may be accounted for on tbe ground that the eold snap has not existed long enough to overcome the latent heat. The tempera- aturc to sufficiently low to freeze running streams, and should it so continue three days we may witness tbe novel spectacle of a frozen Ocmulgee. Tbe ponds and fountains in and about the city, bowover, were frozen, and some fine skating was eqjoyed by the boys. Several trains due In this city before breakfast made close connection with din ner only. The Telegraph and Messenger en gine, press and inks froze up and delayed the 1 sue. Drays and hacks iu many in stances refused to go upon tbe streets, snd much inconvenience, generally, was ex perienced during tbe day. Macon is not prepared to entertain cold weather, and tbe “beautiful snow” has become a posi tive nuisance. Nothing is uglier than a crooked boot or shoe; straighten them with Lyon’s Heel Stiffeners. dec31-wGt .THE COAX. FAMINE. TM Piaeh of Neoreltjr Tightens in Tbe event foreshadowed iu these col umns some weeks ago has matured. Macon has entered into a coat femlne at last, and a suffering that, unless the weatberdkioderates, will increase to an acute degree, is the result. There is not a pound of soft coal for sale in the city, and but little of tbe hard. It Is of but little use to complain. All that remain to be done is to find a way out of the diffi culty. Tbe remark Is made constantly: “Why do not the coal dealers lay lu a supply in the summer sufficient to meet the winter’s demand ? ” The question is a natural one; but the fault Is not with the coal dealers, it is with the railroads. We .were in formed yesterday by a prominent coal merchant that he has coal both at tho Montevallo and at tbe Coal Creek mines which has lain there since the first of September; that he has made application to the Central railroad authorities for and has been promised transportation time and again, hut it has never been furnished him. The fault is not with tbe coal dealers. Or the contrary, the public are indebted totbeir liberality for coal at anything less than ruinous prices. Al though they knew that their fast diminishing stock could not be replaced weeks ago, they continued to sell at the price established October 1st, until the last pound was disposed of. The fault is with the railroads, and to them we must look for relief. We are informed that all of the rolling slock is employed in hauling cotton and other freight, and cannot bo used for coal. This may be true, but it seems to us that a city which pays into the railroads’ treasuries such sums as are paid by Macou, should be accommodated, when the comfort and welfare of the city are at slake, even though the roads do loso a little otherwise. Tbe interests of the roais are identical with those of the city; prosperity with us, is prosperity with them, and it is a short-sighted policy which leads them into a neglect of a city’s welfare. We have never been among those who have hastened to cry down the railroads for fancied injuries, but if it be true tliat the railrosds have not provided themselves with cars sufficient to supply one city with coal (as it is charged) or continue to refuse transportation fur what has now become an absolute ne cessity with us, we shall add our voice to the indignant protests, which are becom ing more emphatic that complimentary throughout the State. No fuel and tlie therftiometer near zero, is a state of affair? that calls for more than protests, however, and we may yet .see a committee waiting upon tho authorities and demanding con sideration.

Besides the gentlemen men tioned above, many others, distinguished In church and state, It is hoped, will be present. It was stated In yesterday’s issue that the Alpha Taa Omega Fraternity was a Southern organisation. This is not strict ly true. It was organized in tbe South, but Is by no means confined to tbe South. Chapters have been established in tbe West, and chapters will be established immediately In tbe North. In this con nection we quote a sentence from a letter from the Right Rev. Bishop C. T. Quit' tard, published In tbe last issue of tho Palm: “In my opinion, every college in the land would be benefited by having a chapter oftbe Alpha Tan Omega Frater- mlty attached to it.” This Is high testi mony. Before the final adjournment of tbe congress, the following resolutions were unanimously adop’ sd: Besoieed, By tbe congress of the Alpha Tan Omega Fraternity, that tbe thanks >>f this body are due and hereby tendered to the Macon Volunteers, and especially to Capt. Carnes, for tbe use of their hall as the meeting place oi this cougrea*. Also, that the thank& of the congress are hereby tendered to Messrs. W. & I?. P. Taylor for their kindness in leaning the congress the use of suitable tables tor the convenience of delegates iu attendance on the congress. Most of the delegates returned to their homes on yesterday. A few are still here. We learn that tbe delegates from other States were much pleased .with Ma con, notwithstanding the snow and the extreme cold. OnUssIloa In tbe wtbtdrsl, Savsa imht [COMMUNICATED.] On Monday last, the imposing ceremo ny of ordaining a Catholic priest took place in the handsome cathedral, Savan nah, Rt. Rev. W. H. Gross presiding. Among the clergy in the sanctuary were tho following: Very Rev. E. Cafferty, V. G., Rev. Messrs. O’Hara, O’Brien, Car- mody, and Rev. P. Oswald Moostnuel- ler, O. S. B. The candidate for holy or ders was Mr. T. A. McConvllIe, of Pio Nono College. Tho usual preliminaries of minor orders having been gone through, the reverend gentleman was called to stib-deaconsliip on Wednesday, to deacou- sliip on Thursday, and after a lapse of three days had tbe holy orders of priest hood conferred on him on Monday morn ing. Rev. Mr. McConvilie commenced his studies ten years ago in St. Charles College, Baltimore, and after a complete classical course entered the Grand Semi nary, Montreal, where he completed his theological studies. He was adopted into this diocese by Rt. Rev. Bishop Gross eighteen months ago, and after the usual term of .probation which his lordship re quires of those aspiring to the priesthood in his jurisdiction, ho orda’ned him priest on Monday last. During the reverend gentleman’s time in the South he has held the honorable position of professing French and the classics in the diocesan college at Macon, besides holding other responsible offices in connection with that institution; and all who have had tho favor of his acquaint ance can aver as to his genial temper and generous disposition. We wish him re newed energy and every happiness in his new sphere of life, and blessings without number in the arduous avocations of tho ministry. Homicide at Crow Kex*. Gus Johnson, a colored man, wa3 killed yesterday afternoon at 3 o’clock, about 100 yards from the sign of the crossed keys, just beyond the Walnut creek bridge on tbe Twiggs county road. He became Involved in a fight with a man named Joe Kitchens, au J was shot by him witb a pis tol. Tbe ball struck Johnson over the left eye, producing death in about thirty minutes. There were several witnesses to the killing, all colored, FIHE IN MONTEZUMA. Another Blow Upon Oar Flacky Lit tle Muter. Yesterday morning a fire broke out in tlie store occupied by Mr. Abe Barnett in Montezuma, and before the flames could be checked tlireo buildings lay in ashes. One, we believe, was unoccupied at the time of tho fire. Tho other contained the stock in trade of Mr. J. N. Rosser, consisting of groceries, dry goods and furniture. Mr. Barnett’s was a general merchandise store, and scarcely anything was saved from it. Tho losses arc: A Barnett, stock, $2,000. J. N. Rosser, $5,000. Lewis, three stores, $4,000. There was a policy of Insurance cover ing Barnett’s stock. Tho remainder was uninsured. A ball was in progress at the hotel, and tho cry of fire was promptly responded to. The burnt build- dings were located between V. A. Colej’s and the livery stable, and were near the cotton warehouse. Fortunately the winds were favorable or the loss might have been much more serious. , ZERO, . * And a Few Facto or History. As we are having more weather now than anything else, a few facts concerning the measure used in estimating our pos sessions iu that line may be of interest: “Zero,” on the common thermometer, like the fanciful names of the constella tions, is a curious iustanceof the way wise men’s errors are made immortal by be coming popular. It may be worthwhile to say that tlie word itself (zero) comes to us through the Spanish from the Arabic, and means empty, hence, nothing. In ex pressions like “ninety degrees Fabr.,” the abbreviation “Fabr.” stands for Fahren heit, a Prussian merchant of Dautzic, on the Baltic sea. His full name was Gabri el Daniel Fahrenheit. From a boy he was a close observer of nature, and when only nineteen years old, in tbe remarkably cold winter of 1709, he experimented hy putting snow and salt to gether, and noticed that it produced a degree of cold equal to the coldest day of the year. And that day was the coldest day the oldest iuhabitaut could remember. Gabriel was the more stiuck kith the coincidence of Ills little scientific discover}', and hastily concluded that lie had found the lowest degree ot temperature in the world, either natural or artificial. He called the degree zero, and constructed a thermometer, or rudo weather-glass, with a scale graduating up from zero to boiling point, which he numbered 212, and the freezing point thirty-two—because, as he thought, mercury contracted tbe thirty- second of its volume on being cooled down from the temperature of freezing water to zero; and expanded a 180th on being heated from the freezing to the boiling point. Time showed that this arrangement, instead of being truly scientific, was as arbitrary as tbe division of the Bible into verses and chapters, aud that these two points no more represented the real ex tremes of temporal ure tban “from Dan to Beersbeba” expressed tbe exact extreme of Palestine. But Fahrenheit’s thermometer had beea widely adopted with its inconvenient scale and none thought of atiy better until his name became au authority, for Fahrenheit finally abandoned trade and gave himself up to science. The three countries which use Fahren heit are England, Holland ami America. Russia aud Germany use Haunter's ther mometer, in which tho boiling point is counted eighty degrees above the freezing point. France uses the centigrade ther mometer, so-called.because it marks the boiling point 100 degrees from freezing point. On many accounts the centigrade system Is tbe best, aud tlie triumph of convenience will l>e attained when zero is made tbe freezing point, aud when the boiling point is put 100 or 1,000 degrees from it, aud all the sub-divisions are fixed decimally. If Fahrenheit had done this at first, or eveu if he had made this one of his many improvements after the public bad adopt ed his error, the luck of opportunity, which was realty his, would have secured to his invention the patrouage of the world.

Burko & Co.’s printing department, was down in the lower part of the building yesterday at noon, when a boy informed him that a gentleman wished to see him up in the composing room. Responding to the call Mr. Dana made bis way into the up^r region and was surprised to find himself the focus of pretty nearly all the eyes to be seen daily iu the various departments of the mammoth establishment. There were present Rev. John Yf. Burke president of the stock company, Mr. Charles Canning, secret.ry and ^easurer Mr. W. W. De Haven, book- lceeper, Mr. John G. Deitz, head of the bindery Mr. J. RT. Edwards, head of the order department, Mr. Barfield, head of the retail store, Mr. Hall, general mana ger of the publishing department, and many others. It was apparent that the fires of the establishment had been banked aud the machinery stopped for some reason. Before he had time to In quire into the causes, Mr.M.J. Divine stepped forward and said: Mr. Dana, I am called upon by the gen tlemen who surround you, and by several absent, to repent them In a tender to you of a alight token Lf° ufldenoe and este °m- There could be no more fitting occasion than this new year morn of ’81 for the expression of our earnest, heartfelt friendship for a «n- tlewan possessing so emineutiy as you do W 1 ana lLe wel1 wisl,es of those with whom you are in dailv contact. Through a long course of years—in war and In peace—we have not been uumiud- ^0^ of the many kindnesses on your part, aud of the excellent treatment we have ever received at tbe hands of the firm of which you are an active and important member. This desirable state of affairs we feel to be mainly attributable to your self, emanating from your thorough judg ment and rare executive abilities - as the superintendent, the practical and the me chanical man of your associates. Accept this trifling memento, sir—not for any intrinsic value that may belong to it, but from the motive which prompts the offering. It is a little thing in itself, but a contribution shared by every individual '“connection with your establishment, lhis fact makes my duty, sir, a doubly pleasing one, knowing as 1 do that 1 con- vey the unanimous sentiment of those: whom I have the honor to represent. With the congratulations of the season, pul this in your li.tie pocket, and in after years, when other forms and other faces will con- front you, let the little remembrancer so lime the revolutions oi memory as to car ry you back to recollections of us, your friends and well wishers of eighteen hun dred aud eighty-one. Mr. Dana was, of course, surprised, but responded in the following neat man ner: As a surprise parly, gentlemen, I am convinced, without the shadow of a doubt, that you are a success. I need not tell you that this Is a pleasant and agree able occasion, for you all know that to be thus kindly remembered is one ot the happiest events in life’s pilerimage. It has pleased you to place iu my keep ing this handsome time-piece, which should ever remind me to 1catch well over the interests of the donors. I look around, seeing ou every side faces familiar to me for eighteen years. Right here I find Mr. Burke, tho “noblest Roman of them all”—the man at tlie helm -who, by his foresight and admira ble administrative tact, has weathered the storm and brought us safely into a secure haveo; and there stands Mr. Deitz, “worth his weight iu gold,” and Mr. Newton, his able assistant; aud there sits “Basil,” whose surname is Hall. May he always keep guard o’er that “printing office hook,” aud “may his shadow never grow less.” And there Is Mr. Canning; Mr. Smith, Mr. Bremer, Mr. McKay, and others, boys aud all—for I see you are here. Now, to wind up this pleasant occasion, I will closo by saying that for this beau tiful token of your friendship anil esteem, my appreciation and gratitude is simply but truthfully expressed in “I thank you, one and all!” The watch Is a handsome double-case, gold stem-winder, and bears within the inscription: A Token of Esteem to ORLANDO N. DANA, from the ATTACHES OF J. IV. BUHKE A CO., January 1,18S0. The gift was a spontaneous tribute to the kind and courteous consideration which has always characterized Mr. Dana’s conduct towards those around him, as well as to the worth of the man. It wiij betohim attiCsured memento. COMPLIMENTS OF THE SEASON. New Year** caller*. The New Year’s callers this season were considerably reduced In numbers, hut what there were of them called vigor ously and stayed well. Owing to the passion for centralization, which has taken possession alike of society and tbe Republicans, there were not many houses open to callers, a fortu nate arrangement, perhaps, considering the weather. The galaxy of stars which greeted the incomer, however, at each tar rying point, sufficiently atoned forscarcity of places, if atonement were necessary. The young ladies and the married vied with each other In making the contrast between the lonely, dreary streets and the salons as striking and as favorable to the latter as possible. The callers chose a residence each at which to “end up the day,” and in several houses the receptions were turned into full-fledged parties, that lingered together until the midnight hour was struck for tho first time in 18S1, and the advent of Sunday warned them to disperse.
