Cbio legislature investigation committee,
xgnrihng printing the report of that cora-
recently submitted to the nnited

ifiiai 11 n il On motion of Hoar, the letter
vto referred to the committee on privileges
ssielections; the matter ordered reprinted
X* ODerect form, and the diatribution of the
jiacorrerl copiea ordered stopped.
Cunsmoruliim of billa on the private cal-
Hadsr occupied tho time until 2 o'clock, and
x number of such bills were disposed of.

Saroretl the proposal to appropriate $800,000
fisc canyage of the United States mails to
Crural and South America, Chinn, Japan,
fide. He did not regard it as a subsidy. It
MS nccccssary, be said, to tko establish
ment of commercial relations with those
axrmiries, that we should have regular and
speedy mail communication with them.
dPhunb said no Senator had shown that
Mat sum per mile provided for by the
amendment was too innoh. Some Senatorc
«bc objected to this amendment itr favor of
«r foreign mail, were hero lavoringtho ap-
jSeationot r.n amendment embodying the
nnn principle for a fast train from Eastern
ISrin to Florida. Tho proposed arrange-
not for foreign mails was not based on
Kbe theory that it was subsidy, bat that we
(Arnold apply to onr foreign mails the p: in-
sepls that had for many years been applied
to Ike transportation of the inlaud mails of
«n» United States.
fflamb asked who was to he benefited
liy the proposed arrangement. The Houth-
css Htatea wcnld be beneficlarloa of this
aatpesition. The cities and harbors of the
iWdh were so placed that they would nat-
wreily become mouth pioeea by which the
United States should speak to the people
math ot them. The Southern States were
■sow making cheap cottons, wanted by
Central and South America; yet Senators
Asa the Southern Htatea wore opposing
hba proposition. They did notespeak the
language of modern progress or modern
•irivibration. The South of to-day was the
Soalkof Calhoun, of Yanooy and of Jiffer-
bob Carls.
■organ interposed to comment on the
unfairness. as he called it, of this clnss of
argmnent at this lato stage of the debate,
fitothem men, he said, had no opportunity
tojtply to it.
unb said no Seuator ahonld lie cat oil
a reply by the limitation ot time—at

rtnuity for a reply. The South of to-

ante time or other produce anob characters

Plumb retorted that Morgan had the a*pi-

On Plumb's motion the sum of $800,000
was added to the amount already in the bill
for railway postal car service One of tho
Senate committees proposed amendments
authorizing tho Post man ter-General to con
tract for inland and foreign steamboat mail
service, when it can be combined in one
route, where the foreign ofllces are not
more than 200 miles dis ant from the do
mestic office, on the same terms and condi
tions, as inland steamboat service contract,
to be made with and performed by Ameri
can-built and registered steamships. This
was agreed to by the Senate, while limita
tion of compensation for such service to 50
cents a milo each way was struck out. In
other respects the bill was passed as re
ported from the Senate committee. The
vote on tho final passage of tho bill was—

of Arkansas, Henna, Maxey, Baulsbury,

Morgan offered u series of resolutions
which were ordered printed and to lie on
the table, declaring that it is the duty of
Congress to extend necessary mail lacililien
across the seas from tho principal ports of
all foreign countries with which tho United
States had any considerable trade, or where
trade can be profitably developed; that it is
the duty of Congress to provide that the
American people shall have the right to bay
ships abroad and import them At reasona
ble rates of du^y, and that laws prohibiting
importation of foreign bnilt ships are as un
just and unwise us the laws would bo that
would prohibit importation of all other ar
tides of foreign manufacture. Adioumed.

HOW MACON IS SLANDERED.
I. Gordon*. Candidacy » Seheine of the At
lanta Junto?—A Voice From Tronp.
Enrron Tki.koii.ivii: I suppose that It is
nettled or will bo that General Gordon is n
candidate for Governor. Is not this
rathor strange? Somehow, I cannot readily
acconnt for it. It is not from political am
bition, because ho resigned tho office of
United States Senator, alleging as a reason
that tho salary would not support his fami
ly, and besides he said that ho was fully
satisfied with public life. It can’t be that
financial embarrassments are driving him
to seek the office, becanse his friends say
that he has recently become rich - almost a
millionaire—arid If the respectable salary
of a Senator offered no financial induce
ment, tbnt of Governor would appear pal
try and insignificant to him. Such being
tho case, is it not then eminently proper
that ho should stand aside and let some
man not guile so rich, but honest and capa-
luo, and who would appreciate tho salary,
have the office?
On a cert dn occasion when the Romans
wanted a ruler, they did not look lor him
among tlie Nabobs of tho country, bat took
him from tbo plow handles and never re-
gr> ttod the selection. Being neither polit
ics! ambition nor want of money that
prompts him in this matter, what then
can be his motives? It certainly cannot be
in | ursuanco of an arrangement of tho At
lanta junto to defeat Gus Bacon. That has
been rumored, and the rnmor seems to be
baseil npon the declarations of his inimodi-
atesfriends. I can very w< 11 see why this
lolitienl cabal and their satellites would not
lesitate to adopt a scheme of this sort, bat
that Gen. Gordon, who has always been re
garded aa the soul of honor and the G'bevu-
lier Bayard of Houthern chivalry, should
lend himself to such a contemptible and
aowardly plan of attack upon another, is to
me passing strange. Tho object of the
arrangement is evulout, aud the necessity
for it is apparent to this junto. Everybody
knows that without a trick of this sort iu
connection with a combination of all tho
less dangerous opponents of Bacon, that ho
would have swept tho State like wild tire.
Lonnot, May 4.—The Queen formally
opened the Colonial Exhibition to-day.
Crowds gathered along tho route taken by
Her Majesty, and greeted her with enthusi
astic cheers. The main hall in which tbe
opening ceremonies were conducted was
crowded with the elite of London. A large
number of foreign princes and diplomats
who attended in court dress, oombined
with scores of British officers present in
full glittering uniforms, to make a magnifi
cent spectacle.
The Prmceof Wales, Dnkeof Edinburgh,
Prince Henry of Battonberg, his wife. Prin
cess Beatrice, and Crown Princess Victoria
of Germand, led the .royal procession
throngbont the building, and were followed
by Lord Harrington, Marquis of Halisbury,
Earl of Derby and scores of other noble and
distinguished persons. Gladstone was not
present. A prominent feature of the open
ing ceremonies was an ode composed for
the occasion by Tennyson. This was mag
nificently rendered by a vast choir of care
fully selected voices. Tho ode was sung
just previous to the Queen's formal declara
tion that the exhibition was open. The
third portion ot the ode was evidently com
posed with a view of etimnlating inter
national fraternity between the two great
English speaking nations, and is in the
following words'.
Britain fought her «oa« of yore.
Britain failed, sod never more.
Caroles, of onr growing Lin,
Shall we sin our fathers’ slo.
Men that in a narrower day —
IJnprophetlc rulers they—
Drove from out the mother* neet,
Thet young eagle of tho Week
To forage tor herself elono.
Brltone, hold your own.
Tbe last part of tho ode, which ia in four
portions, makes the' following significant
allusion to tho present crisis in British
politics:
Khali we not, through good and til.
Cleave to one another .tilIT
Britain* myriad voices call,
"Sons, be welded, each and ail.
Into one imperial whole."
Bo with Britain heart and eoul—
One life, one dag, one fleet one throne.
Britons, hold your own,
Aud God guard alb
The Queen was profoundly pleased with
the ode and with the manner in which it
was rendered by the choir. She nodded
and smiled with pleasure and approval at
oach sentiment as it was brought out, and
seemed to exceedingly enjoy the enthnsi-
nsm which the poem and music provoked
on the vast concourse, whose applause was
henrty, enthusiastic and long continued.
tv hat is Said of Iter liy Col. John M. Slubba
—Her enterprise.
In the conrse of a conversation yesterday
between Col. Jobn M. Stubbs of tbe Dublin
and Western Railroad and Mr. S. T. Cole
man of the wholesale dry goods lionse of S.
T. Coleman A Co., tho former made the
statement that Mscon was a one-horse town;
that she was treating his road with indiffer
ence; that she was antagonistic to tbe road
and also to the Covington and Macon road;
and she hud refused his road the right-of-
way. Much jpore was said against Macon,
hut the foregoing is a fair specimen.
Mr. Coleman was so 'surprised and
shocked that he offered to go at once with
Col. Stubbs to Mayor Price to prove the un-
justness of tbo accusation, but Col. HtubLs
refused to go. Mr. Coleman informed him
that he had never heard of tbe road making
any request for the right-of-way, and that
so fur os being antagonistic to tue road or
showing an indifference, Macon, on the
other hand, was anxious to have the rond
bnilt, and was willing to aid it in any way.
He also said that he would make a record
of wbnt CoL Stubbs had said condemnatory
of Macon.
“Write it down in your ledger,” said Col.
Stubbs.
Soon afterward Mr. Coleman sought
Mayor Price, and later in the day both of
these gentlemen went to the Edgerton
House and there saw Col. Stubbs.
“Has your road over’asked for the right-
of-way into Macon?" asked Mayor Price.
‘‘No,” was the reply.
Then when confronted with the state
ment made to Mr. Coleman during the
morning, Col. Stubbs said lie had heard n
man say so, “but,” lie added, “it was none
of our men.”
It appears that Mr. Coleman wss not the
only citizen to whom Col. Htubhs atati-d
how the citizens of Macon were oppoaing
the road by indifference and antagonism
and refusal to allow the road to come into
iht- ciiy.
The truth is, the mayor and council of
Bacon have never received a communica
tion in any muuner or form from the Sa-
aunsL, Dublin and Western railroad or
any of its representatives, asking for right-
of- way or any other privileges.
The city of Macon has always been
willing to aid the projected railroads. Much
bos been said of her antagonism to the
Covington and Maeon railroad, but that
there waa none, »e give the following
original agreement, signed by Col. Living
ston of that road. The contract subse
quently agreed npon, and which is now in
force calls for no more from the road thnn
is required in the original agreement. It
should he remembered also that the lands
and privileges granted in the argument were
made in addition to tbe fifty thousand dol
lars subscribed by the citizens of Macon:

Joseph Brown, however, bos said that 11a-
ci n, unless lie becomes a Brown nun, shall
not bo Governor of Georgia, and as Brown
carries the politics of Georgia in liia
breeches pockets, this must he so,
As a part of the plan of the Atlanta ca
bal, sro how cunningly it was arranged lor
Gordon to meet Sir. Davia in Montgomery
nud invite him to Atlanta; and all along the
route, if it had not been known that it was
Jeff Davis who drew tho crowds of citizens
along tha line, Gordon and Evan Ilowell
would have appropriated all tho honor and
enthusiasm to themselves. When tho train
arrived at LaGraugit thorn went up to tho
heavens a long, loud aud universal shout of
joy from tbo two thousand persona who had
come for tho purpose of manifesting thoir
love aud affection (or Mr. Davis. The only
/out pu s made was in the Introduction of Mr.
Davis and by the man that made it. It was
at least bad taste to select a man to intro
duce Mr. Davis to anv Southern crowd who
hail sail), in a speech at Chicago, that bo
felt much better since we had been whipped
by the Yankees. (I give the substance, not
the words.) And besides, Mr. Jt.ivls needed
no introduction to the people of Tronp
county; there wore many present that
personally knew him, and the bulaneo
would bavo recognize 1 him by instinct.
But 1 suppose it was part of the programme
that General Gordon and his attendants
should show themselves along tho route us
much as possible, in order that he might
boost himself up for the race for Governor
on borrowed capital.
I regret very rnnch that General Gordon
r itmiU himself to be ensnared in this way
think that one trick of this kind playn
off on a man of Gordon's sense would he
sufficient to HatHy him. The plan formed
to obtain hi* resignation es Senator should
remain preen in hi* memory to guard him
against the selfish schemes of such wily
politicians. Gordon of Confederate time's
waa a man of noble impulses and honest
emotions, and now, if ho would just tire
above the influence of political tricksters,
he could make himself a grand man iu the
estimation of the people of Georgia. But
under such influence and control lie will be
sacrificed. They never touch bint without
leaving a stsin, and if by thia trick be
should bo elected Governor, there will lie
no bnunr to bim, for tbe victory will hare
been obtained by means and methods dis-
gosling to General Gordon'* tin* sens* of
feeling a* an honorable aud chivalrous gen

THE LONDON PRKSSON GLADSTONE.
Tbe Paper* do nut Uuilurse the Premier*
Manifesto on Ills Home ltute Measures.
London, May 4.—The Daily News says:
Gladstone'* manifesto is n stirring ap
peal for justice, but no more than jus
tice to Ireland. We entertain no expecta
tion that the Irish question will be settled
until the constituencies shall have had
an opportunity of passing judgment on it
Thu Times says: The manifesto aa a
i iublic document' is almost unique in its
find. In substance it is a confession of
tho inability to curry homo rale by an act
of imperious authority and alliance with
t’arnellitcs. A more striking example of
demngogio temper in its most dangerous
form baa rarely jreen recorded. The value
of Ainerioan applaush in wliioh it exults, is
dependent on onr estimate of the parity of
politics in America,
The Morning Boat says: Wo seriously
commend Gladstone's reference to the Irish
land bill to all Englishmen in whom the
sense ot personal and national honor is not
dead.
Tho Daily Telegraph saya; It Ls more a
lcbiaclatory appeal than an electoral mani-
esto. Gladstone addresses himself to tbe
mass meeting of people. Ho has not scru
pled to avail himself of every form of per
suasion, legitimate and illegitimate. If he
had presented a scheme of local government
for Ireland, we would have been willing to
support it, but we object to his proposals
just because Dublin Burliament is not to be
restricted to making laws dealing with Irish
us contradistinguished from imperial affairs.

address breathes is aa high aa ever, bnt

A correspondent of the lUltimore San
writes: The ceremoniea at Montgomery,
Ala., on Wednesday lad, and the allnsion*
made by Gen. John D. Gordon in hi* ora*
tion there to the imprisonment of lit, Davis
at Fortress Monroo in 18G5, revives Home
incident* rarely now mentioned, but novcrl
thelcH* ot rare bi*torieal interest, and be
longing to both the period and the subjeot.
they may now be truthfully related.
Aa eye wittiest*, engaged there in the ord-
nauco department at the fortress, now a
rebident aud attached to the police depart
ment of Baltimore, say* that when Mr.
Davi* lauded from the gun-boat on tbe
{overnmeut v. barf, tbe guard that received
tiitu kept back the lookt-r*-on to a consid
erable distance while they conducted the
prisoner to tbe interior of the fortifioation
and to the casemate aligned for hi* incar
ceration. Soon after be was lodged there
the officer of the day culled aud
advised biio that orders had been received
from Washington to place him
irons, and asked him to submit by lying
prostrate on the cot then within the case
mate. Mr. Davis, with some vehemence,
objected, and A«ked that the order bhould
be read to him. This was done, and he
still refused, and declared that the manacle
should only be placed on him by force.
Tbe blacksmith was then present with the
lrg-imn*, and a soldier, being so ordered,
placed bis muskut Across the breast of the
prisoner, pressed him to and then down oa
the cot While held in that position the
smith riveted, the irons on the anklrs, and
the prisoner, thus secured, was looked in
the casemAte. A day or so following or
der* came from Washington to remove the
manacle*, and soon afterward to open the
door, and finally to allow Mr. Davis to exer
cise himself by limited walks within the
ground*. The order to iron wax issued, it
wss said, by Secretary Stanton, and the
preparations to do ao were all made prior tc
the arrival of the gunboat. President John
son issued the ameliorating older* that
followed.

The citizen* of Macon wonld be pleased

Dnblin and Western railroad, and there
need bo no fear but that Macon will extern!
to his line every possible encouragement,

I have recently become n convert to the
Bouton science of miud-enre. I was con
verted to it liy my wife, who ha» studied
the autyect earnestly and ia a firm In Hover
in the power or the will aa a healing and
conquering influence. She ia herself a liv
ing illustration of tho efficacy of the will
not only in curing bat in preventing ail-
menta. For a long time abe bail been sub
ject to neuralgia attacks, and found no rc-
Uef until tbe mind-enro was suggested to
her. She did not go to any school or pro-
fessorof the science,hut merely studied and
read the subject und evolved a process
which consists, I believe, in merely placing
the strength of her wi'l against tho iqi-
pronch of tbe ailment. She ia a woman of
great will power, and when she make* up
her mind that she don't want anything to
do with nenralgio, neuralgia has got to stay
away, aud it does. Yaw, dot'a so.— Inter
view with Actor Jo Emmet.

there are no customers, or not ■ paying
number, it is srgaed that there will lie no
reason for keeping the shop* open. Tne
method wonld be effective it it could be
mode general. Uafortanately.family author
ity doesn't always rest with the men. The
idea that shopping eon be regulated by a
