‘‘Come, oomrades, now, I bid ye—
'To the true love of mine 1’
“Her forehead’s pure and holy,
Her hair is tangled gold,
Her heart to me so tender,
To others’ lore is cold.
“So drain yonr glasses empty
And fill me another yet;
Two glasses at leaBt for the dearest
And sweetest girl, Lisette.”
Up rose a grizzled sergeant—
“My true lore I give thee,
Three true loves blent in one love,
A soldier’s trinity.
“Here's to the flag we follow,
Here’s to the land we serve,
And here’s to holy honor
That doth the two preserve.”
Tttf n rose they np around him,
And raised their eyes above,
And drank in solemn silence
Unto the sergeant’s love.

The Atlanta Post-Appeal says an In-
diau, direct from the Indian Territory, is
shortly to enter Emory College, at Ox
ford.
Atlanta must be an unusually at
tractive place just now. The following

local column of the Constitution on Wed
nesday; “Stealing a Watch. In the
Calaboose. So Q t to Jail. Stealing a

Bev. John F. Hillykb, of Texas, is
in the city, enjoying a reunion with his
brothers, Judge Junius Hlllyer and Rev.
S. G. liillyer. In the order above named
the ages of the three brothers are respect
ively 70, 74 aud 72. All three graduated
at different times iu the State University,
and of those graduating with Kev. John
F. Hlllyer only two are now living. Of
the two other classes in which the other
brothers graduated, each class is repre
sented by five survivors, making thirteen
of the three classes who are now in the
land of the living.
The Amerlcus Republican says Mr. W.
H. Merritt, of Marion county, had
wagon load of roasting ears in the shuck,
In town on Tuesday for sale. They sold
rapidly at fifteen cents per dozen.
Also, that on Monday last, Hon. J_
H. Black, while cleaning off the mote
board of his cotton glr, had his left band
caught by the gin saws and terribly cut
up. We learn that be will lose one, if
not more of the fingers on that hand. Mr.
Black is a veiy strong man and had pres
ence of mind enough, as the saws were
drawing his hand and arm to a painful
destruction, to grasp the saws with his
nght hand and bold them until the belt
ing turning the machine could be thrown
off. In this act, however, his right band
was severely cut, but not as badly as the
left.
From the Hawkinsville Netes:
The PjtomuiTioN Election is Doo
ly.—We learned nothing definite in re
gard to the election in Dooly on Monday
on the whisky question, before going to
press with our paper, but the county has
probably gone for whisky by a considera
ble majority.
Resigned.—We learn that Mr. G.
W. Maddon, postmaster at Fort Valley,
Ga., has resigned in favor of Mr. J. W.
Love, who was for a long time postmaster
at that place before Mr. Maddox took
charge of the office.
Good Farming.—We learn that Mr.
Joe Wilson, a young man running a oue-
horae farm near Snow Spring, Dooly
county, will make twelve bales of cotton
and corn enough to run his farm next year.
He is now picking over his cotton the sec
ond time and gelling 1,100 pounds of seed
cotton to the acre.
On Sanday afternoon, as several young
men of Webster connty rode up to An
tioch church, in Webster county, Mr.
Jesse W. Harrell, aged about 20 years,
'was thrown over the head of the horse he
was riding, strixing heavily on his breast,
from which ho died about 4 o’clock on
Monday morning.
The Ocean Steamship Company has
put on the steamer Herman Livingston as
an extra vessel between Savannah and
New York.
Says the Savannah News:
Last evening, about 10 o’clock, while
Hr. John Foster, one of the foremen in
the employ of the Central Railroad Com
pany, charged with superintending the
loading of the steamship Dessoug (now
lying at the wharf of that company), was
engaged in bis duties, he became involved
ia a difficulty with Jacob Bird, one of the
negro bands. In reply to a question
asked him, the negro became very inso
lent, and finally was ordered from the
wharf by Mr. Foster. Instead of leaving,
as directed, be became still more insolent,
until at length Mr. Foster seized him by
the ears, with the intention of either lead
ing or shoving him away. As he did so,
the negro struck a blow at Mr. Foster,
and immediately ran. Nothing was
thought of it at the moment, but in a very
short time it was discov
ered that Mr. Foster was cut,
and examination revealed the
fact that be had received an ugly wound,
evidently with a sailor’s sheath knife, just
above the right nipple.
The Tbomasvllle Enterprise says it
does not suppose “there ever was as much
hay gathered In this county as there has
been this year, and it is remarkably well
cured, too. It has been selling at sixty
cents per hundred, bat Is now down to
fifty cents.”
The same paper has the following:
Shot Dead.—Last Saturday afternoon
while Frank and Eddie, two little sous of
Mr. J. W. Dukes, who lives five miles
north of Boston, were out squirrel hunt
ing, Frank met with the shocking fate
that is so often met in the careless hand
ling of a gun. The facts are thus stated
by oar informant: While the two broth
ers, aged respectively about 11 and 12,
were near the ford of the Piscola, about a
half mile from the house, Eddie stopped
to load his gun, and Frank, coming to a
log, sat down to wait for him, and under
took to rest the breach of his gun on the
log, when it slipped off and the hammer,
striking the log, the gun was discharged,
the whole load entering the little fellow’s
head just in front of the left ear and com
ing out at the back of the head, almost
taking off the entire side of the skull.

Numbers of papers in tbe State are of
the opinion that Major A. O. Bacon would
make a Governor of whom Georgia would
be proud. The Ishmaellte is liviug in the
same belief.
Pass Hist Abound.—We take pleas
ure in reprinting, and giving all the cir
culation in our power to tbe following,
which Is found in tbe Athens Banner.
Remember tbe scoundrel’s name, IL L.
French, of the wholesale drug house of
II. L. French & Co., New Fork:
One day-last week a negro man named
J. G. Hutchins, who taught school In Ath
ens and is now one or the editors of the
Athens Hlade and the holder of some
Federal office, got on tbe Northwestern
train at Lnla coming southward. When
Conductor Patleraon came for tickets be
found Hutchins in that part of tbe car as
signed to white people. The passenger
car Is divided by a partition, one part be
ing given to white and the other to color
ed jieople; aud both apartments are iden
tical iu all respects. Tbe conductor asked
Hutchins to go into tbe otLer apartment.
He replied that he didn’t see that be was
doing any barm there. Tbe conductor
told him that be might not be doing any
barm, but that tbe other apartment was
that tbe law gave him tbe right to sepa
rate tbe two races. Hutchins still refus
ing to move, tbe conductor said: “If yon
don’t go,*I will put you off at the
next station. Arriving at the next sta
tion, Gilesville, Hutchins said he would
go into the other apartment, but after tbe
train started, he refused to go. Condu>
tor Patterson had the train stopped and
backed to the station, intending to put
Hutchins off. Just here a white passen
ger, H. L. French, of the wholesale drug
firm of H. L. French & Co., Now York,
Interfered, and told Hutchins not to get
oil until he was put off by fcrce, so that
that he might sue tbe road for damages.
In obedience to his suggestion, Hutchins
did not move until the conductor took
film by the shoulders aud lilted him,with
out violence, out of his seat and pushed
him toward the door. As he got to the
saloon, near the door, French called out
to him that would do—lie need not resist
any more; and so Hutchins ceased hold
ing back and got off quietly. French gave
his name and address, and told Hutchins
to have him summoned at any time as a
witness, and he would gladly respond.
He further remarked: “You are as good
as any white man in this country.” This
is a correct statement of the case. Wo
hope our contemporaries of the press will
give A. L. French, of H.L. French* Co.,
New York, all the free advertising that
his conduct entitles him. We repeat that
the accommodations on the Northeastern
road are the same in every respect for
white and black.
Says the Dublin Post:
A Sad Cask.—Mr. Columbus Orr, of
Washington county, brother of Mr. Jared
Orr, of Dublin, died at Dr. Hicks’ in this
county on Monday. It seems that he had
started to Dr. Hicks’ and got so very sick
that he got down in the woods. At least,
Lo was found in the woods near by where
he had apparently been for tweuty-fonr
hours. He was taken to the house and
everything done for him that could be
done, but without avail.
W. A. Pledge!!, a particularly uppish
and obnoxious negro, is getting signatures
to a petition to make him postmaster at
Athens.
Shot His il'.OTiien.—The Savannah
Recorder, ot Wednesday afternoon, gives
an account otamost distressing occur
rence, which to-'k place in that city early
that morning. It seems that about
week since some burglars made an at
tempt to enter the store of Mr. P. Finn,
hut as that gentleman, who was sleeping
in an adjoining room, was aroused, the
burglars made off. Yesterday morning,
at about 5 o’elock, Mr. Finn’s brother,
who clerks for him, came into tbe doors
and moving around to open tbe store, ac
cidentally knocked down some tinware
from a shelf. This aroused the elder
Finn, who, not hearing bis brother enter
tbe store, and thinking burglars were at
work, seized bis pistol and, being in his
stocking feet, noiselessly entered the store
from a rear door and seeing the form of a
man in a stooping position, fired at it. It
was that of his brother, who was in the
act of stooping to pick u p the fallen tin
ware, and in the dim light of tbe early
morning his brother did not recognize
him. The ball entered below tbe shoul
der blade, and may prove fatal. Finn
was In tbe act of firing tbe second shot,
when tbe cries of his younger brother re
vealed to him the distressing fact that he
had shot James Finn, his brother.
The name of the scoundrel who made
himself so officious in the Hutchins mat
ter on tbe Northeastern road, a few days
since, is Harry French, and his house Is
French, Richards. & Co., Philadelphia,
not New York. New Yorkers, generally,
have more sense than French exhibited.
Hawkinsville received 1,039 bales or
cotton last week, against 1,350 same week
last year.
Mb. Wm. Holden, of Wilcox county,
died last week, aged eighty-five years and
a half. He leaves a widow about ninety
years old.
We find the figures of the Dooly county
whisky or no whisky election last Monday
in the Hawkinsville Dispatch. The ma
jority for whisky was 365. We are sorry
for Dooly.
Woods is in sore distress about the egg
and chicken market of Hawkinsville.
He says in the Dispatch that chickens are
thirty cents each, and eggs quite too
awfully awful scarce to talk about, hut
that “it is not his business to feed the
public, and be don’t run a dairy, a vege
table garden or chicken farm.”
He was up at tbe State fair last week,
but war ao taken up with tbe circus that
he didn’t find time to see anything else,
and tells about it as follows:
As usual we look reserved seats at the
top of the caavas. Tbe crowd surged in—
eleven thoutaud strong. All the seats
were rapidly filled, and then a howling
mob gathered about tbe ring and stood up
to see the performance. Of course all on
the bottom seals were compelled to get up
and look over the heads of those between
tliem and the ring. Then tlicre was t a
general uprising—a kind of insurrection—
and those on reserved top seats could
see nothing. However we saw a side
show, which was very good. The
following bit of paper was hand
ed us by Bob Harden: “Take notice of
the couple behind me.” It was a loving
couple—“two souls with but a single
thought”—two hearts that pulsated in
union. In the parlance ot the present
day, in polite circles, he had “made a
mash,” and she had “stuck on him.” It
seemed that we were in the midst of a
whole confectionery shop. He held her
by the waist with his manly arm, to keep
her from falling, and she twined her arms
about his neck and ate peanuts out of his
mouth—taking them out with her teeth.
Those who “did up” the fair in all its de
partments said that the animal display
was very poor. Maybe so, but we thought
the display of “hogs” was pretty lull. The
trains goiug out of the city appeared to be
crowded with them—some smoking and
puffing their tobacco fumes iu the laces
of ladies, and others armed with black
bottles, and swearing iutbe presence of
everybody.
The Sumter Republican says on Tues
day evening about five o’clock tbe gin
house, screw, five bales of cotton and four
hundred bushels of Jowers’ Improved cot
ton seed, atl belonging to W. P. Jowers,
of Webster county, were destroyed by fire
caused from friction of the running gin.
The cotton seed readily sold at from four
to five dollars per bushel. Loss estimated
at two thousand dollars. No insurance.
The house of Mr. A. B. Weslow, of
Albany,was burned on Wednesday morn
ing. Some furniture was saved but much
damaged. There was an icaurance ot
eleven hundred dollars on the buildiDg
in the Southern Mutual, at Athens.
The Banner says “there is a young
man clerkiDg In Athens who says he nev
er saw a circus. Ha was raised within
twenty miles of the city. How is this
forj moral Innocence? He Is going to see
.JRentz & Santley all the same.”
The Greensboro Herald says “great ex
citement prevails in Taliaferro county
over recent developments in reference to
the murder of Amos Ellington. It seems
that an efiort is being made to implicate
two or three very prominent men in the
county in the murder. This is the secret
of postponing the execution of tbe negro
who was convicted of this crime.”
The following extract from an Atlauta
elter to tbe Greensboro Herald throws
some light upon H. I. Kimbill’a connec
tion with tbe cotton show In that city. It
says:
Mr. Kimball, with his usual energy, is
working every means to make the show a
success. He has staked on it the hope of
a great popularity iu Atlanta, if not in
came within fifty votes of being mayor at
tbe last election. I suppose he is to-day
tbe most popular man iu tbe city. If be
succeeds in making a transcendent suc
cess of the great enterprise he is now
managing, there will not be anything too
good for him in Atlanta.
The same letter says “there Is a new
evening paper soon to be started bere.
Tbe adventurer upon this dangerous sea
is a Cincinnati journalist, who says be
knows wbat a newspaper ought to be,
and has money enough to cany out his
project.”
We leam from the Savannah Recorder
that “Vice-President Raoul, of the Cen
tral railroad, gave notice Thursday of tbe
following increase in wages, which were
given according to what he considered
the exigencies of the times and the merit
of the workmen: Tbe blacksmiths and
engineers will receive twenty cents per
day additional, the machinists ten, the
firemen, laborers and helpers to black
smiths five cents extra.”
The Atlanta correspondent of the Co
lumbus Enquirer-Sun writes as follows:
Atlanta is to be blessed with another
morning daily by the first of January.
Seventy-five thousand dollars have already
been paid in and every arrangement is
being perfected to open fire at tlie very
earliest day. Col. E. F. Hoge, one of the
most forcible writers in the South, is to be
managing editor, aud tbe public may be
assured that a paper under bis geueral
care and supervision will be first-class in
every particular. There is going to be au
abundance ot fun in the newspaper busi
ness in Georgia not far away.
Judge I’ekino Bbown, late president
of the Citizens’ Savings Bank of Atlanta,
is now in charge of one of the turnstiles
at the cotton show in that city.
Tbe governors present at the ahow in
Atlanta on Thursday, all mounted the
scales with the following result: Colquitt,
of Georgia, 170 pounds; Bigelow, of Con-
neclicut,18Ci; Jarvis, North Carolina, 203:
Blackburn, of Kentncky, 2231; Hoyt, of
Pennsylvania, 248.

From the Henry County Weekly:
The State Faib.—This grand exhibi
tion, which came to a close last Saturday,
in Macon, was one ot tbe best ever held
in the State, and despite the detracting ef
fect which it was supposed the Cotton Ex
position would have upon it, was highly
successful, both in point' of attendance
and in tbe character of the display made.
True, we have seen the various depart
ments when we thought tbe respective
lines of exhibit were more full and com
plete; but this yea.- there was a marked
superiority in the character of the differ
ent articles offered for display that amply
compensated for the numerical deficiency,
and it was so distinctive a feature as to
excite general retnaik.
Fbom the Greensboro Home Journal:
The State Fair, Macon, Etc.—
Last week we briefly noticed our visit to
Macon and what we saw in that old but
progresslvecity. The park, where the fair
was held, in its towering oaks, pines and
other forest trees—in its verdant lawns
and gushing fountains in natural topogn
phy, is one unsurpassed loveliness. The
buildings for the exhibition of articles of
various kinds are spacious, well-arranged,
attractive aud accessible. We doubt
whether there is anywhere to be found a
more convenient or desirable spot fur au
industrial exhibition, or drives and prom
enades. Located in tbe center of tbe
Slate, we hope It will be continued as the
permanent fair grounds of our great com
monwealth, aud that a compact to this
effect will be entered into between the
State Agricultural Society aud tbe city of
Macon. In this way the present improve
ments could be kept up and others added.
Macon, as an educational, railroad, man
ufacturing and commercial centre, has au
assured aud prosperous future. Whilst lo
cal agricultural associations should every
where be kept up, iu ibis beautiful “Cen
tral City,” there should periodically meet,
on exhibition, the varied products of our
truly Empire State, from her semi-trop
ical seaboard, aud her more temperate
and aspiring uplands. We observe by the
Macon Telegraph that with all the draw
backs—such as short crops, tbe great Cot
ton Exposition in Atlanta, tbe Yorktown
Celebration; etc., the late fair was a com
plete success. With such men at its head
as Cols. Hardeman, Grier and Holt, how
could it have been otherwise.
Fbom tbe Fort Gaines Tribune:
Tbe show was good in every depart
ment and too much praise cannot be
awarded the efficient and energetic man
agers. Macon is a live city, aud does,
probably, tbe largest wholesale business
of any city in Georgia. Her merchants
are enterprising, and as a geueral thing
prosperous.
We find tbe following items in the
Atlanta Constitution. When you go up
to the show belter leave all your valua
ble at home:
Jerking a Watch.—Yesterday when
tbe State road train rolled into tbe car
shed there was a large crowd present, and
a snatch thief got In his work. Among
those who crowded up to tbe coaches
when tbe train stopped was Mr. Frank
Webber, who was looking for some friends
from Indiana. While in tbe crowd he
thought he felt a hand enter his vest pock
et, aud looking down saw that his watch
was gone and at the same time noticed a
man disappear very rapidly through the
entrance, but before Mr Webber could
reach tbe pavement hia man had disap
peared in tbe vast throng there present.
The watch and chain were gold aud quite
valuable.
Knocked Down and Robbed.—
About uoou yesterday a well dressed
man weBt to nolice headquarters and
stated to Captain Starnes, who was pres
ent, that be bad been knocked down and
robbed of bis watch and pocket-book
He said he bad walked out to Ponce De
Leon springs and was returning, when
two men, one a negro and the other
white, sprang from tbe bush on the side
of the road near the end of the boulevard,
and assoulted him. He resisted their at
tack, but they proved too much for him,
and finally succeeded in knocking him
down. They then proceeded to rifle his
pockets. His watch was a large, heavy
silver watch, aud was worth $40. In his
pocket-book there were between sixty-
five and seventy dollars, which was near
ly all the money he had. The blow
wblcb felled the man was a bard one, a
heavy stick being tbe instrument, and
knocked him senseless, and when be be
came conscious bis assailants had gone.
The gentleman, who gave his name as
George McVey, says that his home is in
Iowa, and that be was passing through
Atlanta and concluded to stop a day to
Investigate the exposition. His head waa
badly gashed by the lick and a large
bruise on his shoulder showed where an-
otLer blow had fallen. He described the
negro as being a thick, heavy-set fellow
with one eye out. He worn a pair of
dark pants, but bad no coat. Tbe white
man was a large muscular fellow, and
wore a full beard.

tbe mail carrier between Jacksonville and
Cane Creek, Alabama, cut the strap and
opened the pouch, and took out a regis
tered letter directed to J. B. Carver,
Rome, Georgia. The letter contained
$33. When the carrier delivered tbe mall
at Cane Creek, he told Mrs. Franks, the
postmistress, that tbe postmaster at Alex-
aedria had cut the strap because he had
lost his key. Suspicion, however, soon
rested on the boy, and shortly after be
was arrested by the sheriff be confessed
the whole matter. Most of tbe mon
ey he tore into small pieces. Part of a
twenty-dollar bill was found. The dep

Washington, October 27.—The Presi
dent sent tbe following nominations to
tbe Senate to-day: Charles J. Folger, of
New York, secretary of the treasury;
Thomas L. James, of New York, post-
master-general; Frank Hatton, of Iowa,
first assistant postmaster-general; Charles

It is expected that tbe Democrats will
appose auy attempt to swear in Windorn
as Senator, his credentials not having ar
rived.
Secretary Blaine does not expect to re
main in the cabinet after December 1st,
unless to oblige President Arthur until
tbe new Secretary of State is selected.
Alter a short session tbe Seuato went
into executive session. It is roported that
a final adjournment be reached this after
noon.
In the Senate to-day, after tbe reading
of the journal, the President pro tem. laid
before the Seuate a communication from
Governor‘Colquitt, of Georgia, extending
to the membeis of the Senate a cordial
invitation to visit the exposition now be
ing held in Atlanta.
But little other buslueas was transacted,
and at 12:25 the Senate went into and re
mained In executive session until 5:50
this evening.
Washington, October 27.—The Sen
ate in executive session to-day promptly
confirmed the nominations of Judge Fol
ger, to be secretary of tbe treasury, T.
Li. James, to be postmaster-general, and
Frank Hatton to succeed Tyuer as first
assistant postmaster-general. William
P. Jonas was also confirmed as postmas
ter at Nashville. The greater part of the
time of the executive session was occu
pied in a discussion over the nomination
of Statham to succeed Wilsou as postmas
ter at Lynchburg, Va., but, without tak
ing decided action, the Seuate adjourned
The case will come up ag'aln to-morrow.
Washington, October 27 The Star
to-night says the delay lu the appoint
ment of a new attorney general has not,
it appears, grown out of auy indecision as
to the selection of the man to fill the
place, but out of the circumstances sur
rounding the office. Mr. Howe does not
desire to accept the appointment with
the star route prosecutions as a legacy
from his predecessor. Ordinarily this
would not be an objection, but there are
circumstances that might be peculiarly
embarrassing to Mr. Howe. His
son-iu-law, Col. Enoch Latten. is one
of the counsel for the defense, and Howe’s
friends fear that should bo accept
tbe office aud fail to convict in these cases
the failure might give rise to suspicions
that bis son-iu-law had Influenced him.
For this reason the President was iuform
ed that Howe would prefer not to accept
tbs appointment at present. One of the
most prominent supporters of Mr. Howe
informed a reporter this afternoon that he
was confident of the latter’s appointment
eventually, but that the President is de
sirous of having the star route cases con
ducted by those who began them, aud
will, therefore, endeavor to persuade Mr.
MacVeagb to remain in office nutil these
cases are concluded; that if Mr. Mac-
Veagh refuses, then an ad interim ap
pointment will be made, and Mr. Howe
will take the office after awhile.
Washington, October 27.—The nom
inations of Messrs. Folger, James and Hat
ton were confirmed iu the Senate execu
tive session to-day without debate or op
position, as soon as they were reported
back from tbe committees to wblcb, as a
matter of form, they bad been referred.
The day’s session was prolonged, how
ever, uutil 6 o’clock by au auimated con
test over the nomination of Clifford Stat
ham, a Readjuster of Democratic ante
cedents, as postmaster at Lynchburg, Va..
nice a Republican incumbent named Wil
son, whose term of office will expire on
tho 7th proximo. Its confirmation was
earnestly opposed by the Democratic Sen
ators, on the grounds, as set forth
speeches by Messrs. Johnston, of Virginia,
Mauey and Voothees, that Wilson was a
gallant Union soldier, severely wounded
in the war of the rebellion; that the busi
ness men ot Lynchburg are entirely satis
fied with bis administration of tbo post-
office and desire his retention, and that
the proposed appointment of Mr. Stat
ham, an active supporter of Senator Ma
hone, is an Inadmlsablo attempt to in
fiuence the issue of a State political con
test by Federal patronage.
To these arguments it was replied by
the chairman ot tlie pcst-office committee,
Mr. Ferry, and various other Republicans
that recent, investigations by special agents
of tbe Post-office Department have shown
that Mr. Wilsou has been short in his
accounts at three different periods; that
his use of government money for private
purposes, although subsequently made
good, amounted to gross dereliction of
duty, if not actual defalcation, and fully
warrants his displacement from tbe office;
that Mr. Statham’s appointment 1s rec
ommended with great unanimity by the
Republicans of Lynchburg, aud that the
objection based ou tbe alleged Federal In
terference with State politics is strained
and unworthy of consideration iu view
both of tbe special circumstances of tbo
case aud the multitude of geueral prece
dents.
At the end of the three hours’ discus
sion, an attempt was made by tlie Repub
licans to obtain a vote upon tbe question
of bis confirmation, but this was preveut-
ed by a resort on the part cf tho Demo
crats to dilatory tactics, commonly
known as filibustering, and finally an
adjournment was taken until to-morrow,
leaving tbe case still pending. It Is be
lieved by many that similar leslstauce to
final action - on Ibis nomination will
be exerted by the Democratic members
of the Senate until tlie close of tlie pres
ent session, unless, in the meantime, it
shall be ascertained that Senator David
Davis will vote with them, in which
e rent, if the party lines are persistently
maintained on this question, tbo nomina
tion will be iost by a tie vote.
Washington, October 28.—The Pres
ident pro tem. laid before the Seuate pe
titions from two Texas banks relative to

Adopted.
The Senate, at 12:25 p. m., went
into executive session. The unde
cided contest over the nomination
for the Lynchburg post office was at once
resumed aud an effort will be made to
dispose of it to-day. The President sent
to tbe Senate this afternoon only two un
important nominations. It is understood
that no others will be sent iu during tbe
remainder of tbe present session. At 9 p.
m., tbe Senate la still in session with
closed doors. Many of tlie Senators Lave
sent out for their supper, from which the
inference is drawn that there is at present
no prospect of an adjournment.
The Senate, immediately after going
into executive session this afternoon, re
sumed tbe contest which was begun yes
terday over the nomination of Clifford
Slratham to be postmaster at Lynchburg,
Va. Mr. Hill, of Georgia, took tlie floor
in opposition to its confirmation and spoke
for two hours. The debate was then con
tinued by Messrs. Morgan, Morrill, Hoar,
Sherman and others at great length, tbe
discussion running substantially upon the
same lines of argument as yesterday—the
political features of the case, and the im
portance attached to its probable bearing
upon tbe result of the impending election
in Virginia being, however, more openly
, expressed and distinctly emphasized. J
Tlie speeches were interspersed with a
number of motions to adjourn and other
dilatory proceedings, and were also diver
sified by a spirited colloquy between Sen
ators Logan and Voorhees as to wlilcb of
tbe two bad heretofore shown himself the
better frieud of tbe Union soldier.
About six o’clock in tlie evening tbe vote
on a motion to adjourn disclosed the fact
tbat no quorum was present, and a call of
tbe Senate was ordered. All proceedings
were then suspended wliiie the sergeant-
at-arms aftd his deputies were engaged in
hunting up aud bringing in accessible
Senators. Meanwhile an elegant lunch
was spread in the room of the committee
on appropriations, and the Senators who
had remaiued at tbe Capitol whiled away
an hour or two in the pleasures of the
table and other social enjoyment.
Soon after 9 o’clock upward of fifty
members were present in tho Senate
chamber, but when a vote was taken on
auotber motion to adjonrn it was found
tbat less than a quorum responded to the
call of tlieir names; a large number of
them were paired witli Senators ;stili ab-
ssut. At half past 10 o'clock business
was still suspended, with no indications
of any speedy break of the deadlock.
It is learned, howbver, that a call for a
Republican caucus has been issued for
to-morrow morning, wblcb seems to ren
der it improbable that the present contest
of endurance between the two parties
will be prolonged throughout the night.
The conjectured motive of the issuance
of this call Is a desire to dissuade certain
Republicans from abandoning the present
struggle by leaving tire city for their re-
cpcclive homes. It is privately argued by
these Republicans that every advantage
expected to be obtained by the confirma
tion of Mr. Stralham’s nomination can
just as well be secured by bis appoint
ment" by the President immediately
after an adjournment of tbe Senate
sine die. As tbe Democrats threaten to
prevent final action upon the question of
confirmation until after tlie Virginia elec
tion, on tbe 8th proximo, it is contended
that persistence in tbe attempt to confirm
ibe nomination may entirely sacrifice tbe
principal benefit intended, and prove
worse than useless.
Midnight.—At 11 o’clock the Senate
directed the sergeant-at-arms to request
tbe attendance of Senators, whether
iu or abseut from Washington. Tele
grams were accordingly sent to about
twenty Senators at their respective homes,
wbo been paired and left Washing
ton.
Washington, October 29.—Tbe exec
utive session of the Senate closed at
o’clock this morning. No decided action
was taken on tbo Stratbam nomination
and when the doors were oj ened, the
Senate adjourned, to meet at noon to
day.
Washington, October 29.—Owing
lire late hour at which tbe Seuate ad
journed last night there was but a small
attendance of Senators when the journal
was read this morning.
Mr. Hill, of Georgia, offered the follow
ing resolution:
Resolved, That appointments to office
under tho Federal government ought not
to be made to control or influence elections
in tlie several States, and appointments
made with such intent are unwise, unpa
triotlc aud contrary to the spirit of our
political institutions, and if continued
without rebuke by the people will be
come dangerous to the perpetuity of our
institutions.
Mr. Hill asked for an immediate con
sideration of tlie resolution, but McMillan
objecting, it was laid over uuder the rules,
The Republican Senators held a caucus
this forenoon to decide wbat course should
be pursued in regard to tbe existing dead
lock ou the Lynchburg post-office nomina
tion. As the result of a brief iuter-
change of views it was decided to appoint
a committee to confer with President Ar
thur and to be guided by bis wishes
whether to continue their struggle for the
Stratbam confirmation or to dispose of
other unfinished business this afternoon
aud allow the Lynchburg nomination to
go over without action (unless it be with
drawn by the President) and adjourn the
Senate, sine die, leaving Stratham’s In
duction into office to be effected by tbe
President’s appointment immediately
thereafter. The committee appointed in ac
cordance with this determination will
wait upon President Arthur forthwith,
and it is generally believed that the re
sult will be a break of tlie deadlock and
a speedy adjournment sine die.
The Senate, at 12:50, o*> motion, went
Into executive session. While tbe doors
were still closed, but after tlie transaction
of tlie executive business bad been con
cluded, Mr. Sherman offered a resolution
for tbe appointment of a committee of
two to wait upon the President and in
quire if he had any farther business to
lay before tho Seuate. Tbe resolution
was adopted, aud Sherman and Bayard
were appointed as the said committee.
Subsequently they reported tbat they had
performed tlieir duty, aud that tbe Presi
dent had nothing further to communi
cale.
Mr. Maxey moved that when the Senate
adjourn - to day it be sine die. Agreed
to.
Mr. Bayard offered tho following reso-
olution:
Resolved. That the thanks of the Sen
ate are hereby tendered to Hon. David
Davis for the courtesy, impartiality and
ability with which he has performed his
duties as President pro tem.
This was acreeii to unanimously, and
Mr. Davis, having resumed the chair
which for a moment he had vacated, said
“Senators, I am touched by the gener
ous expression of the resolution
which it lias pleased the Seuate
to pass iu my honor, and I am grateful
for the courteous co-operation which has
been extended to uie from all sides in ad
ministering tho duties of presidiug officer
of this high and enlightened body. Hoping
that every member of the Senate will re
turn happily aud safely to his home aud
be permitted to resume bis duties here at
the next meeting of Congress, it only re
mains for me to declare the Senate ad
journed without day.”
The doors were then, at 4:30, opened,
aud the usual leave-takings exchanged,
and in a few moments tlie Seuate cham
ber was deserted.
The Senators who conferred with the
President iu relation to the Lynchburg
nomination were Messrs. Ferry and Ma-
bone. After tlieir return the nomination
was laid aside aud the Senate despatched
tlie remaining business rapidly, aud a
number of nominations were confirmed
before final adjournment.
Washington, October 29.—Immedi
ately after the Senate went into executive
session this attornoou, the sergeaut-at-
arrrs made his return of tbo order by
which, last night, he was directed to
“briug in tlie Senators named therein as
being absent without leave.” An ani
mated debato ensued forthwith in regard
to the power of a minority of the Sen
ate, under the constitution and rules, to
compel the attendance ot absent Sena
tors,” the purpose ot those questioning
the validity of tlie order being under
stood to be to prevent action upon the
Lynchburg nomination. After speeches
of considerable length by Messrs. Brown,
Hill and Bayard, and briefer remarks by
many other Senators, the following “pro
test” was presented and entered upon tbe
jpurnal, together with the sergeant-at-
arms’return.
The undersigned members of tbe Senate
tbe United States hereby formally and
earnestly protest against tbe execution of
tbe resolution offered and adopted yester
day, under the rule prohibiting debate in
the absence of a quorum of the Senate, by
a vote of 19 to 17, directing the sorgeant-
auarms to compel the attendance of the
Senators named In tbe said resolution;
first, because said resolution is in viola
tion of tbe fifth section of tbe first article
tbe constitution, which authorizes a
sinal leuiumber than a quorum of each
House to compel the attendance of absent
members only when the manner of such
compulsion aud a penalty for a refusal to
atleud have been provided—no provision
having ever been made by this Senate of
the manner of compelling the attendance
' its absent members, uor any penalty
affixed for their refusal to attend.
“Second, Because said resolution aud
order violates tbe freedom irom arrest
guaranteed to each member of the Sen
ate under article 1, section 6 of tbe consti
tution.
“Third, Because said resolution and or
der violates an unbroken, unquestionable
and bonotable usage and custom of the
Senate, under which the members absent
have paired, and absented themselves
only under such understanding.
“Fourth, Because said resolution was
suddenly aud without any previous up-
tice introduced and adopted after midnight
with no opportunity for debate, and is an
unwarranted and dangerous departure
from the line of precedent and constitu
tional government of the body.”
This protest was signed by Senators
Bayard, Vest, Hampton, Slater, Jones,
Farley, Voorhees, Davis, (WestVirginia),
Hill, (Georgia), Brown,Williams,Groome,
Johnston, Pugh, Pendleton, Coke, Call,
Morgan, Ransom, George, Maxey, Walker
and Jones, (Florida).
“I concur in the protest, with the un
derstanding that it docs not deny the
power of the Senate under a constitu
tional quorum to prescribe arrest as a
manner of compelling the attendance of
an absentee. J. G. George.”
The protest was next discussed at great
length, and m reply it was vigorously con
tended by Mr. Edmunds and other Re
publican Senators that the warrant did not
direct tbe arrest of anybody, and tbat no
body had been arrested, it having been
executed, they said, by reading it in the
Senate Chamber in tbe hearing of the
Senators who had appeared to-day with
out compulsion. Mr. Edmunds also re.
ferred to tbe journal of the Senate to show
that many of the Senators who signed
tbe protest in qaestion had, on the 24tb of
February, 1879, voted for the issuance of
a much more stringent order, which di
rected tho sergeant-at-arms to compel the
attendance of absent members without
warrant and without designation of
the names of tlie Senators to be brought
in, leaving the entire matter as to the per
sons to be captured and tbe means to be
employed to tbe unrestrained discretion
of the sergeant-at arms.
Finally, when the debate was begin
ning to seem interminable, a motion was
introduced to lay the whole subject on
the table, which prevailed without divi
sion, aud tho Senate was once more
brought face to face with tbe direct ques
tion of confirming tbe nomination of
Stratham to be postmaster at Lynchburg.
Mr. Ferry, who, as chairman of the post-
office committee, bad charge of the nomi
nation, said that, iu view of the manifest
determination of the Democratic mem
bers of tbe Senate to continue the employ
ment of dilatory proceedings against final
action on this case indefinitely (or at least
until after the Virginia election), tho Re
publicans bad concluded that rather than
permit any further obstruction of tlie re
maining public business, they would lay
the Lynchburg nomination aside, and he
accordingly made tbat motion, which was
unanimously agreed to, aod the ScnatQ
proceeded to confirm a large number of
nominations. Mr. Ferry’s motion is.un-
derstood to have been tbe result
of the consultation to-day between lilm-
self on behalf of the Republican
caucus and President Arthur (iu which
Senator Mabone also participated), and is
further well known to have been predica
ted upon an explicit understanding tbat
the adjournment of the Seuate will be
promptly followed by Stratham’s appoint
ment to the office by the President. Be
sides this nomination, the nomination of
Pay Director Watnaough a3 Paymaster-
General of the Navy, was laid aside with
out final action, aud eight or ten others
(principally of postmasters at small
places) similarly expired with the
extra session.
The Lover's Lexicon.
It was late last night when he came
shuffling up the stair leading to the repor-
torial boudoir. He did not belong to the
chronio gang who nightly infest our pre
cincts and tattoo old jokes and worthless
news upon our tympanums, for his step
was of corky lightness and he was as wild
eyed as a fresh actor. It was evident he
had a secret concealed somewhere about
his person and he was afraid it would es
cape, for his left hand froze to. the lappel
of his coat which he had buttoned np to his
chin as tight as wax.
When he entered, wo were engaged in
padding our only new3 item with all the
verboseness of our strength. His right
digit he waved, after the manner of Alger
non Swinburne’s hero when he “waved his
white hand and passed.” But there was
no poetry in our reporter—only beer—aud
he pointed to a choir. The man with the
awful secret cast a withering look apon
the chair as if he had an idea that a pin
was in ambush, and then he struck an atti
tude—a sort of frozen statue attitude—and
in a voice that sounded likea cross between
the fizz of a soda fountain and tho buzz of
circular saw ripping through a knot,
exclaimed:
“Aha, I have the secret ! ’•
“What secret ? ” we ejaculated, the per-
spiration gathering in beads upon our
olassic brow, fearing he had discovered a
new railroad rumor.
“The felt long want—the long felt want
of centuries past and of centuries to come.
I have burnt the midnight oil and dug deep
into the mines of research and my labors
huve been rewarded, and a fortune ia in
my grasp—it is worth uncounted millions.”
Here the gang took their legs down from
tho table, straightened np in their chair*,
dropped the choice exchanges, forgot their
old jokes, and remained silent, eager to
dutch tbe first glimpses of the secret should
it drop from beneath tbe folds of his coat.
“I have the ‘Lovor’s Lexicon.’ Upon my
sacred honor, gentlemen, I am no book
agent,” he exclaimed, in a pair
of loud parenthesis marks,
he observed the dramatio critio .gather
the paste-pot in his clutch.
“Tho Lover’s Lexicon contains that
which the world has taken torches and
dived into the utmost recesses of language
for and yet failed to find! It was left for
me”—giving his heart a lick so hard that it
lost fourteen beats—“to find the treasures,
aud I have grouped them in shape to be
used by all humanity.”
The gang at this juncture began to devise
means to dispose of the crank. Some sug
gested that on accelerated rate of speed
down the stairs with a box-toe as the pro
pulsion would be the correct tbing,but order
finally prevailed and the fiend proceeded.
“Take you the words 'darling,’ ‘honey,’
'sugar-plum,’ ’ducky,’ and other words
of like meaning. They have
long eince played out, and
yet you are compelled to use them. High
and low, plebeian and patrician, shoddy,
parvenu, riff-raff and royal are absolutely
compelled to use these terms because of
the absence of any more suited to the pur
pose. In my lexicon I have a thousand
new words of bright coinage that take their
place and will eventually supplant them
just os the Bteam car has taken the place of
the ox cart. These words are just as full
of ripened sweetness and just as tender.
They go right to the mark, fill the bill in
every particular and fit to a hair. These
words are worth their weight in gold—they
are priceless—and yet my lexicon is only
sold for twenty-five cents per copy. I re
gard myself, sir, as the greatest living
genias. Unborn babes will rise np and
thank me as soon as they are born, and
when all that is mortal of me has been put
under the sod, a marble cenotaph will
mark the spot where I lie. In conclusion,
I have a few county rights to dispose of,
and you can say so in your paper. I fur
nish editors with marked copies free.”
Then the poor tramp, who really hail
nothing under his ooat bat a very empty
stomach, borrowed a dollar from the gang
and went down stairs. He was lost seen in
beer shop, and the dollar quietly resting
i the till of the gentleman behind the
counter.

Fox hall and Iroquois.
Chicago Tribune.
The victory of the American three-year-
old colt Foxhall in the Cainbridgeshf
stakes at Newmarket yesterday is, from
sportsman’s point of view, a more merito
rious performance even than the winning
of the Epsom Derby by Iroquois, also an
American representative. Both these
horses are of the same age, and their suc
cesses on tlie British turf this season have
been simply phenomena, and demonstrate
beyond a doubt that in the matter of
breeding race-horses this country leads
tbo world. When Parole went to Eng
land, three years ago, and captured a
large number of important turf events
from fields comprising the best horses
Europe could produce, it was signed that
his case was an exceptional one—tbat he
was an animal superior to any tbat this
country had ever produced. This year,
however, Messrs. Loriliard and Keene
hare, with Iroquois and Fox-
hall, shown the Britishers that these two
American colls can conquer witli ease
anything of their age that dare oppose
them, and that Foxhall can also win
races in which horses of all ages are per
mitted to start. Early in the season Fox
hall went to France and won the Grand
Prix de Faris, the great French race for
threo-year-olds, with ease, and four days
previously the news had been flashed all
over the world that Iroquois had won the
Epsom Derby. This would have been
victory enough for one year, but Iroquois
followed bis Derby success by winning
tho Prince of Wales stakes at Ascot, the
Newmarket Derby, and finally the great
St. Leger stakes, thus placing to his credit
the five leading three-year-old events of
the season, and having been defeated a
length only for the Two Thousand Guin
eas by Peregrine, a colt who was behind
him two weeks later In the Derby.
Although Foxball’s victories are not as
numerous as those of Iroquois, Ills per
formances have been of a character that
stamp him as fully the equal, if not the
superior, of Mr. Lorilard’s colt. After
winning the Grand Prlxde Fans ho did
not start for some weeks, hut when he
did appear the Grand Duke Michael and
Select Stakes were soon added to his list
of victories. Next came the Czxrowitch,
a handicap In which horses from three
years old up started, and the American
colt galloped away from fourteen of the
best'racers In England with ease, no
horse being within ten lengths of him at
the finish of the two and a quarter-mile
course. By winning this race Foxhall
Incurred a penalty of fourteen
pounds for the Cambridgeshire,
and this additional weight was
deemed by the betting men to com
pletely extinguish his chances for winning
that event, as it had never been won by
a horse carrying more than 121 pounds,
while Foxball’s weight was 126. Odds of
twenty to one were atonce offered against
the American colt, and, to their credit be
it said, freely accepted by several specula
tive New Yorkers, who had won large
sums by Foxball’s victory in the Czaro-
witch. On paper It loosed as though the
colt had not the slightest chance to win
the Cambridgeshire. His weight was 120
pounds, five pouuds more than had ever
been carried to victory by any horse. Lan-
ercrost, a four-year-old. won the race in
I860 with 121 pounds, tho highest weight
ever carried by the winner. The highest
weight ever carried by a three-year-old
winner was 114 pounds—upon See-Saw,
in 16CS. It will be seeD, therefore, that
Foxhall not only won with the highest
weight on record, but tbat bis being only
three years old makes bis performance
still more wonderful.
With the Cambridgeshire the last of tbe
great events of the season in England has
neon run. The Americans have won all
tho great three-year-old races and the
two great fall handicaps, and did it all
with two colts owned by different men.
' Tho country has reason to be proud of
their achievements,‘and Messrs. Loriliard
aud Keene, are entitled to praise for tbe
pluck they have displayed m sending
across the ocean at great expense stables
of race horses that have so worthily held
the honor of tills country.
Says the Atlanta Post-Appeal:
The Citizens’ Bank.—Quite an in
teresting case was tried on Wednesday of
this week before Judge Pardee,growing out
of the failure of the Citizens’ Bank, On
the day of the failure the bauk held two
certificates each for $2,000, given by R. B.
Bullock, receiver of the Atlanta'cotton
factory, to tbe effect tbat the bank had ad
vanced to him said sums, as receiver, and
that he would pay the same to the bank
on its order o:u of funds coming into his
bands as receiver not later—tbe one the
15th of April, and the other on the ?9tli
or April. The bank failed oh tbe 13th ot
April, 1881, about 11 o’clock. After the
directors bad determined to make an as
signment and whilst tbe deed was being
prepared, tbe cashier of bis own notion
took $20,000 of the assets, pat $5,000—
the papers before tho court—in one envel
ope, cud the other $15,000 in another en
velope and delivered them to the cashier
of the Gate City National Bauk, with di
rection to hand the $5,000 package to the
cashier of the Atlauta National Bank.
After the assignment was made and the
bank closed and the cashier of the Atlan
ta National Bank had been informed of
tbo tacts, Mr. Hill delivered tbe package
to Mr. Romaine. At the time of tbe fail
ure Governor Bullock bad on deposit at
the Citizens’ Bank over $5,000 to meet
tlie drafts. The Atlanta National Bank
claimed that it received the certificates as
collateral f or $7,000 due it by tbe Citi
zens’ Bank; tbat it got them before they
were due and without notice of
Gov. Bullock’s deposit and they prayed
the judge to order them .paid. Judge
Hopkins for Gov. Bullock urged that
though on their face payable to order, yet
they did not stand on the footing of nego
tiable paper, and the taker of them before
maturity could not get any better right to
have them now paid than tbe Citizens’
Bank had. He also insisted tbat tbe whole
transaction was not only unauthorized on
the part of the cashier of the Citizens’
Bank at the time of the transfer, but was
against tbe law and a crime, and tbat no
person could become an Innocent
purchaser uuder such circumstances.
After long and elaborate arguments by
Judge Cunningham and Mr. Broyles
for the bank and by Judge Hopkins
for the receiver, Judge Pardee decided
that under the circumstances the trans
fer and endorsement of the certificates by
the cashier of the Citizens’ Bank was un
authorized; but be puts his decision mainly
on the ground that whatever language a
receiver might use on such a certificate,
he had no authority to make a negotiable
paper, and tbat any taker of such paper
;ot no more rights Ilian the Citizens’ Bank
iad, and tbat was to apply to the court
by reason of tbe fact that it bad advanced
tlie money—not by reason ot the certifi
cate—to ha7e it repaid. Aud as the re
ceiver liad a deposit equal to, if not more,
than the drafts, he refused the order.
