VxsinKGTON, May 4. - In the Senate to; <fcy Hour presented a letter received by him flam Emitt Tempkins, aecretary of the Cbio legislature investigation committee, xgnrihng printing the report of that cora- recently submitted to the nnited SStsOM Senate. The letter state* that Tomp- Kbs cm examining tho copy printed by order *ff the Senate, finds that surreptitious inter- pebtiom have been made in tho copy fur- ■iribed the printer, the matter interpolated met being in the original copy Bent to the he sate by the Ohio House of Itepresentn- tum The interpola'on, the aecretary says, b «f matter intended to reflect on the good ftfithof a majority of tho Ohio committee ;ad the Senate 1 mislead l ) committee on pnvt- m p _i and electiona. Inapeetion of the y, Tompkins adds, shows tliut the added iter is written in pencil, on soft paper, J wholly disconnected from tho official fwswra.

Cunsmoruliim of billa on the private cal- Hadsr occupied tho time until 2 o'clock, and x number of such bills were disposed of.

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 , Plumb* vote would ho oast for full rtnuity for a reply. The South of to- i national control, ho continued, re td to the wishes, intercuts uml prin- I inculcated by Calhoun, enforced by Yaeey. and represented to-day by Jeffer- mm Davis. He (Plnmh) did not speak «( that as in any sense personally offensive, im as qualifying personal sincerity ot the Morgan remarked that no such imprnch- tat or accusation had the slightest poraonal wlenae for him. Every name mentioned by OTumb was consecrated in Morgan's mem- wry .» the names of honorable and great toil He hoped the State of Kansas might ante time or other produce anob characters arCalbonn, Yancey, or Davis. Plumb retorted that Morgan had the a*pi- xstion for Kansas all to himself. Plumb awauld not take cno leaf from tire chapter of ■ay man ss an honorable, alnccre, honest ceahle man, but thorn men represented tho “ ‘h of slavery, the South that did not t tree labor; ao tlia South took up te ster the burden of that wing whero it left •I is 1881, yielding to tho aanto determi nation against freo labor. It was an old •tootrine in favor o! capital against labor, flba capitalist, with his coffers filled, and bofiarieg in tho law of supply and demand aa applitd to labor like everything else, said: "Give roe tbe right 0> buy my ships where 1 phase, whero I can lmy cheaply products of labor of other countries, and 1 don't cure ■tent American labor." The South, l'lumh iwriil. wo ,ld never Uke its proper place in the galaxy of States nr perform its part as a rival in the race for progress as long us it ■aid that there should be no labor on ship m farm that should rcalixe that it was en titled to good wages o' to the assertion of its rights. The Bouth hud wuhtf-d njanu* iMtaxea; that woe the 8it*n t>y which aho feed been conquered. Tho Bouth had been xoliantand dtftr rtnincd, bnt had no me- •Afttfon, no skilled nrtiHxnt who could niako napWment* of warfare, or means of trans- yrUtion on land or hca.

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— yeas 15, nayi 10. k Those voting in tho nega tive were Berry,’Coke, Gray, Harris, Jones of Arkansas, Henna, Maxey, Baulsbury, Vest and Whitthorne. 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.

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: Georgia, Bibb county.—The following writing A Watch Free Wo will mall a .Nickel-Silver Waterbnr, . 1 the style repreeeuted In the cat bclo. | who will send as a club of ten xn I Tae WEKKI.TTklkghaph at one dollar,!'? 1 *'"' I wifi enable each eubecribor to aecure tb ° *** | the lowest club rate, and at the eame tlai” WM ' 11 1 sate the club agent for bis trouble. * """to-1 OULt saw lUBscalBKas—that is. thoe.

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 tleman. Taorp. 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. The Chronicle says: The spirit which the address breathes is aa high aa ever, bnt when tho full meed ot admiration is ac corded we fail to (Msoern any greater jnati Council of the city of Macon; 1.

A correspondent of the lUltimore San writes: The ceremoniea at Montgomery, Ala., on Wednesday lad, and the allnsion* made by Gen. John D.

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*.
