The announcement in made in onr tele graphic columns of the death of General Hancock from the effect* of n carbuncle. General Hancock wan one of the most distinguished soldiers on the Federal side in the late wor. He was the most distinguished soldier in peace, exhibiting a broad and comprehen sive view of the civil law of the land and its faithful execution. lie did much to bind up the wounds of war and to smooth the rugged paths of the people of the South who will remember him gratefully. Ills elevated ideas of duty and his faithful performance of it lost him the Presidency. Gold and political cor ruption defeated him anil the desires of the best of the Ameiican people. “So you’ve been to the New Orleans ex position. Did yon have a good timo?" “Naw! The oity is not half as wicked aa they make out.” Whim a mob in London is trying to make the English nobility go, another mob in Washington Territory is performing a similar service for the Chinese. This is tho way the money goes for pen sions: 187'J, 242,755 pensioners, 1880, 250,- 802, 1881, 268,830, 1882, 285,687, 1883, 303,- 058, 1881, 322,756,1885, 345,125. Tus assaults upon Garland so far have been in the Duitiro of dilatory motions and should not bo allowed to retard the prog- yeas of the investigation into the main question.

Accident nr Design. It will be remembered that au attempt was mode during the last session of the Legislature, to investigate the giving of the right of way over the State road to the Georgia Pacific railroad. The attempt was only apartial success. Sufficient information was elicited to show the importance of a thor ough investigation. After many and vari ous motions to thwart and delay the in vestigation, in tho closing days of the scs sion the committees got to work. Time was short and the investigation shorter It was developed that the enterprise was started without a cent of capital. General Guruuu's note for fifty thousand dollars be ing the only symbol of coin or currency. The lobbying of the Legislature was not touched upon. The experts all swore that the State had been done out of a very valu able franchise, the exact figures of which could only be reached after to a construc tion of several, and seemingly contradictory statutes. It further transpires that the Attorney- General of the State hud never been con sulted iu regard to the true and legal con struction of these statutes. It also ap peared that the one thousand dollars charged by tho Governor for this valuable franchise had never been paid by tho corpo ration to which it was given. Colquitt's memory failed him entirely upon the witness-stand. He conld recol lect nothing as to dates, or transactions, and was confused as to his own property rights. Finally the committee dumped the matter into the lap of the Attorney-General, where it ought to have gone in tho first place. Now it appears that this action of the Legislature hnx bo place in the public laws with him. It was the duty of the aeconds then and there to have written out and signed the “proces irrbal' or report of the affair, hut It was neglected and later on they coaid not agree. Thereupon the Compte's seconds gave the details as published and threw all Paris into a tumult, nud brought about a dozen other duels, one of which'was between Magnier and the senior second of his late antago nist. During this encounter Magnier con ducted himself with great coolness and courage and was again wounded. The decision of the best duelling author ities is that tho Compte's seconds should have stopped the dr el when Magnier turned his back, bnt that, failing in this, the fight having been renewed and the principals having shaken hands, nil irregularities were thereby waived, and Magnier was entitled to an honorable mention in the report. Singularly enough, the discussion has called forth a history of American duelling from the fatal encounter of Hamilton and Durr down to a recent date. Tho French duel is generally upon a point of honor. It is prosecutod until one of tho combatants receives a personal in- jnry. Generally the mere shedding of blood is sufficient to ond the affair. The wounds indicted are for the most part in the right hand, arm shoulder or breast. Sometimes, but not often, these duels re suits seriously. M. Rochefort, the editor of the Intreascgesnt, lias fought a score of duels, and M. Paul de Cassagnac probably an equal number. It appears, by official record on Decem ber 18th, that the President had removed 643 officials, divided among the depart ments as follows: State, 80; treasury, mil postoffice, 266; interior, 76; department of justice, 61. As there areabout 4,000 offices filled by presidential appointment, it will bo observed that the President line not re-, , , ,, . , , . , - where it property belongs. All tho official* moved one in six. In short, tho number of . . . . ohangos have been lees than have frequent ly been mode under a new President of the same party as his predecessor.

An article on tho subject say* that tho crest introduced by Sooretary Manning at hi* recent dinner party created quito a sensation because of ita striking originality and the significance of the motto: 'An eeglo dots not catch files.’ Continuing, tbo article a*ys: “Gen. Ilutler's crest is a goblet, bearing the le gend, ‘Comma ja trouvo,' while that of Henator Ingalls is an open eye with the words in Latin, 'He wins who is aware. Geo. Logon has recently adopted the style and his note paper now bears the very pret ty design of a calumet across an Indian war bonnet. Senator Sawyer, who is the wsg of the Senate, is thinking of following the estmple ot other great men in this respect, and will adopt as the moot appropriate crest for his profession ot lumberman an embattled sawlog on an emerald pine for est, with ■ pair of engrailed bobsleds upon the dexter pair of chevrona. t Tux GUI family, of Tennessee, are the champion rabbit hunters, according to the correspondent of the Nashville American “They occasionally turn ont 100 or more strong for a rabbit hunt on horseback, no dogs allowed in tbo field, and no one al lowed to carry a gun or throw a Itiek or stone. The land is level and generally laid off in fifty and 100 acre fields. They enter one ot these huge wheat fields, where a great many rabbit* are tonnd, riding in abreast,and they rarely go many steps with- ont jumping a rabbit, and then the sport begins. The nearest man to the hare dashes off at full speed, ) eUing at the top of his voice, which scares the hire and ex cites the hone. If a good horse (and the GUIs have no other kind) he soon runs over the game, and the rabbit dodges, taking another direction, when a holt dozen other hones will take after him. Finally the hare finding itself snrrounded and seared nearly to death, drops down, and then the race is who shall find dis mount and bag the game. The chase baa, perhaps, seared up a half a dozen more rab bits, which starts the whole company in phase, and they go' dashing helter-skelter in every direction, under the wildest ex citement. It ia the grandest sport ever ooocelved, and no man can witness the aeena without partaking of the enthusiasm. They esteh sometimes as many aa 100 rab bits a day, as it is rare that one ever es cape*. They raioe rabbit* for the purpose, . and don't regard a man as a good citizen who will go out and murder the poor little things with a shotgun. They are also fond of bird hunting, and ketp several packs of hounds and have excellent sport in fex having anything to do with the preparation of tho laws admit thnt it should appear in its proper place, bnt uo one seems to know who is to blame for tho negligonco. The Attorney-General confesses that ho is mak- iug an investigation into the matter, upon the authority of a publication in the Tele- a bate. The rtcoid presents a very remarkable state of affairs. The query at once suggest* itself, was this nrglrgence tho result ot sc. chlent or design? Previous occurrences in connection with Colquitt nud his administrative conduct would seem to favor the theory ot deslgD. In the investigation of tho Northeastern bonds, it was charged that tho notes of the stenographer were mutilated, in ono im portant particular, as to the evidence. When Colquitt delivered his last message to tho Legislature he distinctly stated that in accordance with the mandate of the con atitutinn he had returned in writing the list of convicta pardoned by him, with the re*- tons therefor. The Senate, by resolution, immediately took issue with him, denied his statement, and demanded furthor infor mation. This resolution reached the honac, went to a committee and was successfully smothered. The investigation ot the matter of the ev idence in the impeachment trials developed the fact thnt he had diverted the money ap propriated for publishing the testimony, and had kept profoundly silent in regard to the matter, and this important part ot the history of the Htate bos been lost to it. These are facte of record. Could all of these things havo happened by accident? If so, what a negligent lot of officials we have at headquarters. Is this not pushing the doctrine of chance far beyond its legitimate limit? It design has taken this place of chance is not tho conclusion irresistible, that the people should demand tho immediate cleaning out ot Georgia's stall in the Au gean stables? We have read and heard of a warrior carrying a charmed life in the front of battle, but the incidents given so above, illustrate tho fact that a politican can carry a charmed life under ihe cover of subservient tools.

Governor Stanford bought the jewel* at that time. Each set boa tiaras, necklaces, brooches and earrings and other ornaments. One set is very beautiful, as the rays which are emitted arc of a violet hue. These arc the rarest of all diamonds. Another set gives out rose-colored flashes; another has yellow tints, and the fourth pure white. The price paid for the set was $600,000. Outside of these, Mrs. Stanford has ono necklace which cost $100,000, and the pendant $30,000. She also has many black diamonds, and has sixty rings of great magnificence; and does not wear any. :she has many pearls and rubies in addition to these diamonds.
