As Atlanta special, of the 24th, to the Augusta News, says “It is reported on good authority that Gen. Gordon has been paid $700,000 cash for the charter of Georgia Pacific railroad and’ all lands belonging to him, his brothers and Got. Colquitt along the line. Of this amount, Gov. Colquitt, Eugene Gordon aud \Ya ter Gordon got one hundred and five thousand each, and Gen Gordon gets the rest. The Richmond and Danville baa purchased all the franchise of tho Georgia Pacific and took fall charge this morn ing. A surveying party of two hundred hands for construction started out this morning. Two other parties are now at work. The Rtdimond and Danville do not propore te stop the road at Aberdeen, hut will push on to Texarcana, where it will connect with the Texas Pacific aijd Iron Mountain railroads. The success of the read remains undisputed. Gen. Gor don remains president at a handsome .salary.” We are glad to annonnee on the an- thority of the Columbus Enquirer, that Rev. J. A. O. Cooke has almost entirely recovered from tho injuries received In the accident on the Southwestern road several weeks since. He preached at Clower’s Church, near Catania depot, last Sunday The Griffin News says John Stokes and Green King were badly wounded on Tuesday, by the premature explosion of a blast in a well in that place. Stokes may be fatally injnred. We learn from the Thomasville Enter prise that Mr. L. L. Yarnadoe, of that county, netted $240 on his one hundred and twenty bushels of LeConle pears ship ped North this season. We find the following in the Athens Banner of Wednesday: Mb. William McRee Killed and His Wife and Daughter Bad. ly Injured.—The report reached the city this morning that a gentleman, his wife and two daughters were kilted In Oconee county by his mules running away with the wagon and throw ing them out, while on their way from church Snnday night. An investigation proved that there was fonndatlon for the report, iStiugh the mult was noi_guite as serious as at %SkT*BtifaS of it, ana there were vsrtou. rumors, all giving the facts differently, but the most reliable state ment we could get was to the effect that Mr. Wm. McRee, a substantial farmer living west of Watklnsvllle, bad, with bis wife and two daughters, gone to church Sunday night in a double-seated buggy, drawn by a mule. While driving alonf: the road the mule became frightened ana ran away, throwing all four of the occu pants of tbe baggy out. All were hurt, bat Mr. McRee himself was injured worst. His skull was fractured and be was. ren dered insensible. His wifesnd daughters were also considerably bruised, bat not seriously. Mr. McRee was carried home and it was found that his injutywas fatal. He lingered until last night, when he died. Two Hex Killed and two Others Sebiously Wounded.—We had hardly finished writing the account ot tbe “fatal runaway” in another place, when we re ceived the news of another serious affair which occurred on the place of Mr. Wm. Perry, who lives on the line of Gwinnett and Walton counties. Mr. Darby, who lives in the neighborhood, brought the in. formation. It seems that Mr. Perry runs a saw mill and also a gin In the season. For these purposes be has a stationary en gine. Yesterday, while Mr. Perry and his father, Mr. John Perry, with some ne gro men, were engaged in some work near tbe engine, which was steamed up but not running, it suddenly exploded with fatal results. Mr. John Perry and one of the negro men were killed, and two negroes seriously wounded. It was thought one of the latter would die. Mr. Wm. Perry escaped. The Rev. F. R. Goulding died at Ros well Tuesday night. Tbe deceased was a Presbyterian minister, and was the an* thor of several of the most popular juve nile books ever written by an American. Among hia best known works were “The Young Marooner” and the “Marooners’ Island.” A Noted Burglar Caught.—We find the following in the Atlanta Post- Appeal, ot Wednesday afternoon: At a late hour last night word was sent to police headquarters from the residence of Mr. Regenstein, on Pryor street, which was responded to by officers Bagby and Norman, who found, on. reaching tbe spot, that Mr. Edgar Thompson aud two others had a negro corralled on the ve randa. The family are absent in New York. The negro was taken into custo dy, giving his name as Joe Willis; but when taken to the station bouse he was identified as Willis McAffee, against whom there are twenty-six charge* of burglary. When searched seven pocket- books were found on him, containing more or leas monsy, one of them having a number of Baltimore and New York street car tickets in it, and one containing papers belonging to Railroad Agent Sar gent. In addition to these s pair of band- tome sleeve buttons were found, which were recognized as the property or Mr. A. B. Brumby, and were stolen from hia res idence on tbe night ot May 25th, together with a coat which waa also found with many other articles among McAllen's ef fects this morning. A reward of $10 had been offered by Mr. Brumby for the but- tnna. A splendid gold watch, lady’s, which had been stolen from tbe house oi Mr. Steele on the night of March 11th, to gether with a lady’s gold neck chain and a pocket-book containing a $5 bill and some small change in silver, were also found on McAflee’s person, besides three gold rings and other minor triuket*. A search of his den this morning brought the arrest of hia brother, Hamp McAffee, and the recovery of four dresa coats, one of them the coat stolen from Mr. Brumby along with the sleeve buttons; one over coat, four pairs pants, two new and of flue quality, two vests, one white, tbe otber colored and new, and other articles. Hamp said he had received tbeee good* from his brother to whom b* bad given money for Willis to purchase them. Willis was convicted of burglary at the spring term of Fulton Superior Court of The Americas Republican say* Mr. Al fred Brannon, who lives in that county, killed a negro named Isaac Scott last Tuesday.

Henry Adams, colored, a one-legged con vict on one of the B. G. Lockett’s peniten tiary convict places, In this county, man aged to elude the guards and make his esc*no lust Thursday night. It was as- c< taiMd 0Q Monday that he was hiding on iim Dent place; across the nver, about six miles below Albany, and Sheriff Ed wards, aided by J. W. Cooper, of East Albany, and another man whoae name we have not learned, went down late In tbe afternoon to effect his capture. On their arrival It was discovered that ho had left the quarter and made off for the swamp: Being too late to follow him up, Sheriff Edwards returned to town,leaving tbetwo men on the ground to .keep a lookout for the convict. Late in tbe night they fouud out that Adams had returned from the swamp and was concealed in a house on the premises.. Gathering np their guns they proceeded In the direction to arrest him. When they arrived Adams came out, and, as he states, fearinghe would he shot, seized one of the guns leveled at him in the hands of one of tbe men. The other then fired the contents of one barrel of bis gun at Adams, which took effort in his right hand, tearing off one finger and larceratlng the hand terribly. He • was brought to town early yesterday morning aud lodged In jail here. We learn from the Marietta Journal that, on Thursday last, a young lawyer ot Dallas, Paulding county, named J. F. Adair, fell from a tree where he was gathering grapes to the ground, a distance of nineteen feet, crushing liis skull and killing him instantly. His wife and lit tle child were present and witnessed the terrible accident. When the limb b:oke upon which Mr. Adair was resting, his wife saw the danger and only had time to jerk her child out of tbe way, or Mr. A. would have fallen on it and probably killed it.

Some of them “At Hickory Flat, near Canton, in Cherokee county, there resides an old gentleman named Starling Kemp. He is 55 years of age, and has resided In that neighborhood for tbe last twenty-five or thirty years. He was esteemed and re spected by all who knew him, and by in dustry and frugality liad gathered together quite an amount of this world's goods, and was looked upon as being In good circum stances. He and his wife had raised quite a lamily. Some time lait spring Seaborn R. Jackson, another old citizen ol ’ Cherokee county, who is known by nearly every inhabitant of the county and who had the confidence of all who knew him applied to Mr. Kemp for board aud was accommodated. Boon after go ing to Mr. Kemp’s Mr. Jackson told Mr. Kemp and his wife that he had $1,009 in his trunk and showing them the money requested them to exercise due diligence in protecting it. This was soon after Mr. Jackson went to Mr. Kemp’s to board. Last Sunday two weeks ago, Mr. and Mrs. Kemp and Mr. Jackson went to church. From church Mr. Jackson went borne with some neighbors to dine, white Mr. and Mrs. Kemp, accompanied by sev eral of their frieuds, returned to their home. Late In the evening Mr. Jackson returned to Mr. Kemp’s, where the neigh bors who had dined with him were still congregated. After passing a few words with the party, Mr. Jackson passed on to his room, but instantly discovered that his trank had been broken open, tire top having been prized off. An examination resulted in discovering that the entire sum of money, $1,009, was missing. As Mr. Jackson had told no one but Mr. and Mrs. Kemp of the presence of the money, he at once suspected them and caused the arrest of Mr. Kemp, charging him with tbe offense. Such was the repu tation of Mr. Kamp that in a short time he was able to give tbe required bond. A few days after his arrest, a son of Mr. Kemp who had been married but a short time, started for San Francisco, Califor nia. His departure at this particular time aroused the thinking powers of Deputy Sheriff Kotcham, of Cherokee conDtj. Frocuring a trusty colored man, Mr. Ketclium gave him a fine gold watch and sent him to Chattanooga, where young Kemp was staying for a few days. In compliance with Mr. Ketcbum's in structions, the colored roan sought Kemp in Chattanooga, and to him aold tbe gold watch for twenty-fiva dollars. The money paid by yoang Kemp was gold, and this fact tended to confirm suspicion in the mind of Mr. Ketohnm, who was in Chat tanooga at tbe time. Thinking young Kemp bad some cognizance of the rob bery Mr. Ketch urn at once arrested him, but a search tailed to reveal anymore of tbe miasiug money. However, in tbe possession of his wife were found two tickets to Son Francisco and five hun dred dollart in gold. This money was identified as tbe property of Mr. Jsck- son, and when asked how he became pos sessed of it, be said that bis father gave it to biaa. Mr. Ketchnm at once arrested yoang Kemp and his wife, and returned with them to Canton. Soon after reach ing Canton young Kemp—promises of freedom having been made by tbe sheriff —told tbe sheriff that be knew where the rest of the money was secreted—that his father bad robbed tbe trank—and agreed to pilot him to tbe place. The sheriff; accompanied by Kemp, was soon dili gently searching a rock pile near old man Kemp 1 * house. Tbe search resulted in finding $1,600 In gold and a pistol upon which was engraved the name of Staffing 1871,"and santoncadf to tbe penitentiary Kemp.

The injured member has been replaced, but from tLe lesion of the ligaments, it is feared he will hereafter be able to walk only on cratches. From ah interview with Representative Jeraison, of this county, by an Atlanta Post-Appeal reporter, wc extract the fol lowing:’ ‘Why Is If, Colonel, that the people along the line between here and Biuns- wlck are so much stirred up about this Cole charter;”’ “Very clearly because in the cuttle fish process of covering their own retreat, tbe Cole peop'6, or their al lies, have misled tbe people Into a confu sion of the charter from Koine to Atlanta, with the extension from Macon here. The people of Macon, many of them, are la boring under an erroneous impression that 1 have voted against the extension from Macon to Atlanta. This, of course, is a mistake, because the line from there here is already authorized and required to be built. But, it Is said, why bottle up the road after it reaches Atlanta? as if the Central and Georgia railroads were not. without any outlet to Chattanooga other than the State road; and why, it may he more properly asked, should the Cole crowd be put in any bet er condition than those roads are in and hate been in for years? No, the truth is it would not be exactly healthy for the proposed concern if the people were fully advised as to Its demands and pur poses, find their strikers and henchmen are industriously endeavoring to distract public attention by such groundless bug bears as the ‘powerful lobby’ scare. Some popple are disposed to look upon them as In the predicament of the.thief in a short jacket,who stuck h!s plunder under his jacket, and raised a hue and cry of “stop thief” with the tail of a fish stick ing out below his attenuated garment. If the people below here knew, or Would •top to think, that the charter from Rome to Atlanta Is a very- different thing from the extension from Macon here, they would lose some of their indignation at those who ask to be permitted to scruti nize a charter closely that is likely to cost them some four or five millions in the de preciation of a property valuable enough to pay f very dollar they owe and leave a surplus in the treasury.” Referring to the selection of Hon. C. C. Kibbee, of Hawkinsville, by Cols. L, N. Whittle and J. W. Robertson as um pires In fixing the valne of the old capitol aud the ambunt Atlanta shall give to h“ contra*!. -*aw*ins- ville Dispalclt says: We learn this morning that Col. Kibbee will leave here on Saturday next to meet the committee and settle the matter. The Legislature now in session will act : upon tbe decision of this committee. We are Informed that a legislative committee as sessed the value of tbe old capitol at Mil- ledgevilje or the cost of its erection at $80,000. Tbe old capitol at Milledgevllle may not in lie present location be worth ten thousand dollars, yet it may have cost a hundred thousand. We never wanted Atlanta tn build a capitol for Georgia, and we voted against Atlanta for this reason. A bill has already been Intro duced In tbe present Legislature to appro priate a million of dollars for a new capi tol. It pow begins to look as if the tax payers of tbe State will - be called upon to build their own capitol. This is just what we expected four years ago. Well, we now want tbe State to build her own capitol, bu‘,wowant the State to wait until she has paid her debts,redeemed her bonds, dpne more to educate the poor children of tbe Slate, and then, if the formers are prosperous, we might afford to submit to a million dollar appropria tion for a new capitol. Tint LaGrange Reporter says It Is pre dicted tbit corn'will sell in that town next yeaf at $2.50, on time. The Savannah Newstsjs Mr. S. Gnek- enheimer, of that city, has just bought 2,500 barrels of flour in St* Louis, and will send it to Savannah by special train. It will require twenty cars, and will be tbe largest unbroken shipment of flour ever received by a Southern firm. The Fort Gaines Tribune gives the following unfavorable account of tbe de meanor of John Smith, Esq., daring a re cent visit to that place: “A .man giving the name of Jade Smith spent several days moor town this week, and spread around and talked of his great possessions and came near buying out the whole town.

The Hamilton Journal says “early last spring Capt. Jos. Bray, who lives about three miles cast of Hamilton, received all the young carp given to gentlemen at this place by Hon. Henry Persons. There were twenty or thirty of these, varying from one to two inches in length. These were turned loose In a pond, supplied by one oft our mountain springs, which by a dam twelve or eighteen inches high, was made to cover about half an acre. Capt. Bray informs us that somewhat to h!s surprise, there are now thousands of young carp in the pond, those originally put Tn having' in a few months matured enough to spawn and hatch out young. They grew wonderfully fast, those which were put in tbe pond now being eight or ten inches in length.” .. Macon and Macon Girls Photo- orapusd.—Mr. S. A. Fackler, of the Mc Rae Advertiser, who was here taking notes last week, prints some of them in the last edition of his paper, as follows: > Macon presents a very quiet appear ance on Sunday. The town Is wrapped in almost Puritan quietude. It is even difficult to procure a glass of soda water on Sunday. If, however, one will take the trouble to go down to the fair grounds lie can get as much beer as he may wish. We saw no less than twenty-five glasses sold in about fifteen minutes. Would it not be better to allow the free sale of lem onade and soda water in the city than to force the thirsty to walk a distance to the park for beer? The workings of tbe Sun day law are somewhat mysterious, it seems. That a city of Macon’s size and importance should have no drinking foun tains, Is very deplorable. The thirsty would prefer pure water to the so-calW '—nil w»»— ■*•«*# not satisfy SS&ron the contrary, we think, it In creases tbe desire for something to drink, as it leaves a sweet taste in the mouth, and in order to slack his thirst, a thirsty man will.havo recourse to ardent spirits. Thus intemperance Is encouraged. Tho park Is now in excellent condition—it is a retreat of which the Maconites may feel justly proud. We fear, however, that its beauties are but little appreciated by those who have the best opportunity to enjoy them; its healthful atmosphere and the grand view that may be had from the banks of the river. We saw bat few peo ple in the park. Macon is noted for her beautiful ladies. If you will take a quiet stroll through the city, on a cool Sunday afternoon, yon will be amply repaid by the sight or the handsomest ladies In the South Mr. Fackler must be mistaken about soda water. We never heard before there was tbe slightest difficulty in filling up on that. The Senate met at 10 o'clock. Sena tor Westbrook moved to reconsider the hill to prohibit minors from being em ployed in bar-rooms. The motion was los$. Several reports were made from ' standing committees, GEORGIA LEGISLATURE.

B. Camming, attorney for the Georgia i ail- road, against the bill. house Nothing was done at the afternoon ses sion of the House yesterday, except the second reading of bills favorably repotted upon by the committees. They were all advanced to a third reading without oppo sition. HOUSE BILLS ON THIRD READING The first business of the morning was the reading of House bills a third time, and the following were taken up. The bill of Mr. Lamar, to authorize the treasurer to pay certain valid past-due bonds of the State signed by Gov. Mc Donald and the commissioners of the Western and Atlantic railroad. (Twenty- nine bonds amounting to $12,500, with in terest.) A proviso reported by the finance committee requires the attorney-general to make a thorough Investigation as to the validity and ownership of the bonds be fore payment is made. The bonds had not been registered under the act of 18i5, and Mr. Hutchins, chairman of tho fi nance committee, explained the reasons which induced that committee to recom mend payment, alter investigation, not withstanding some irregularities. The proviso was adopted, and the com mittee of the whole House recommended the passage of the bill. The committee then rose and reported the bill hack. Mr. Hammond suggested some verbal amendments, as there seemed to be some doubt on the part of the finance commit tee, and as the caption declared the bonds to be valid uotwitb*te»<R n 5 *t»o Investiga tion ordered. Mr. Garrard said that the finance com mittee had made a close scrutiny, aud was satisfied with tbe validity of the bonds. He did not think the proviso nec essary, bat was willing to accept it to sat- isiy the scruples of others. It was recom mended because one member of the com mittee desired it. There was no doubt of the genuineness of the bonds, and the books allowed that they had never been paid. The fact that the amount involved was large ought not to he regarded if the Stats honestly owed the money. Mr. Hammond had the act of 1879 read, which required all bonds issued before that time aud then due to be presented wltliln that year, and declaring that all not presented within that lime would he regarded as prima facte spurious. Mr. Miller, of Houston, thought the scrutiny of the committee and the'proviso requiring an investigation by the Attorney General were a sufficient assurance that tlie bonds would not be paid unless they represented a valid debt due by the State, and the only question about which there could he a doubt was as to the validity of the title of the present holders. After some discussion between Messrs. Hammond and Miller as to the facts of the case, the House adopted the pro viso. Mr. Hqnt moved that the bill be printed and made a special order for Wednesday next. Carried.

Passed. HOUSE. Rev. Dr. Turner offered prayer in tiie House this merning, aud lu a most feel ing and earnest manner implored divine mercy and favor for tbe President of the United States in his extremity. Mr. Bacon, of Chatham, moved to re consider the vote of yesterday by which tho H»use rejected the bill making an ap propriation for a State official representa tion at the International Cotton Exposi tion. Mr. Bacon supported his motion in a forcible speech, contending for a State representation and acknowledgment, even if no money should be appropriated. He referred to interesting exhibits from vari ous counties which could and ought to be made. Mr. Garrard opposed reconsideration, on tlie ground that an appropriation lor the purpose would be unconstitutional. He contended that it would be devotiog the money or credit of tlie State to tlie uses of a joint stock association. He did not want the corpse resurrected merely for the purpose of giving it a more decent burial, and would therefore vote against reconsideration. Mr. Hutchins, of Gwinnett, did not be lieve that there was anything unconstitu tional in the proposed appropriation. Hq was willing to support the bill, with some modifications, which wo did not dis tinctly hear. Mr. Nortben favored reconsideration. He said the State bad already collected in the capitol building a large store of speci mens showing the resources of tlie State, which ought to be exhibited. He related conversations with gentleman of other States, who expected and desired the ex hibits to be made. He referred to the fine opportunity for inviting and securing immigration and the investment of capi tal from other State;, which the exposi tion would afford If the State was prop erly represented. Mr. Miller opposed reconsideration. He was surprised at the motion alter the failnre of the friends of the bill to make any argument in its behalf yesterday. Mr. Nortben rose to say that ha was so much staggered at the opposition in the House that he kept silent. Mr. Miller said it was not the first time the gentleman had been staggered by the action of the House, and he ought to hare taken warning from past experience. He went on to oppose the bill as unconstitu tional. Ho scouted the idea of being in fluenced in a matter of this kind by the wishes and advice of Northern men. He ■aid that they attended to the business of their own States independently of our wishes or advice,and be elaimed equal in dependence forGeorgiain the management of her own concerns. He believed that the Agricultural Department of the State already had articles enough and money enough to make a creditable exhibition. Mr. Coffin said that the finance com mittee had failed yesterday to give any reasons in favor of the bill, and that was sufficient to account for the si lence of other members. Ee was for glv. ing tbe bill a fair chance before tbe House, and believed the interests of the State would sufier if such a chance was not af forded. Mr. Hester, of Dougherty, made a speech in favor of the bill, which wc did not bear with sufficient distinctness to at tempt a report of it. Mr. Baoon, of Chatham, said that the desire of the friends of the bill was to hare it recommitted, so that they might consult with the Commissioner ot Agri culture, and ascertain what could be done with least expense. The yeas and nays were ordered on the motion to reconsider, and the vote stood —yeas 47, nays 85. So the motion failed. CALL OF THE COUNTIES.
