Holmes, as deputy marshal, watched the case on behalf of ids government. Mr. Hubbard, of New York, watched Jhe interest of the Second National Bank. •Mr. Dunbar, Queen's counsel, appeared on behalf <>f the accused. Ho asked for Eno's liberation, principally on the ground of informality and illegality of the warrant which had l»ecn issued for his arrest. He said the warrant was so defective that the magistrate ought to be arrested for issuing it Other counsel for the defense followed in the same strain. Mr. David, Queen’s counsel, of Montreal, appeared on behalf of the defrauded bank, lie resisted the application for the liberation of the ac cused, and held that the warrant was legally issued.

Bisson- cti,the constable who made the arrest, then exhibited another warrant for Eno's arrest and attempted to serve it. The judge threatened hint with arrest if he dared execute it in the presence of the Court. _ SHOT IN HIS BED. A Worthy Citizen of Cochran Shot While Aateap In Hie Bad. Cochran, June 2.—On yesterday morn ing our town was thrown into a state of the most profound consternation at 1 o’clock by the shocking announcement that Mr. Joe Dykes, one of the moat .up right and beat citizens of this place, had been shot In his bed. Hastening to the bouse in tho d >ub!e capacity of surgeon and reporter, I found the house filling With relatives, friends and medical men, but the unfortunate man was just dead.

London, June 2.—An encyiical letter from the Pope was read in the Catholic churches throughout England to-day, warning the people against joining secret societies, under pain of excommunica tion.

London, June 1.—In a recent interview. Arabi Pasha declared that the events in the Soudan were the outcome of the un wise policy pursued by English clemency, and inquiry into the people's grievances could alone restore order; otherwise there would be frightful bloodshed befoie an end was readied. I*, was certain that the Mahdi would never make overtures for peace, and that he would fight until captured or hilled. Arabi declined to say whether he believed the Mahdi to be a true prophet. He said he felt the highest regard for the British, and hoped to see the day when Egyptians in Egypt would be on the same footing as the English in Egland. THE PORTE AND TUB CONFERENCE. London, June 2.—The Porte has finally agreed to enter the Egyptian conference, provided England and France will agree upon the questions submitted by it.

Berlin, June 2.‘—The German press is filled with indignation at the news of tiie lust explosions in London. It declares that there will be no occasion for aston ishment if reprisals should occur. St. Petersburo, June 2.—The Russian press attributes the London exptysions to a desire on the part of the originators to raise funds. London. June 2.—The Telegraph says: The dynamiters are directed by leaders in New York, who are protected by the toler ation of the Americans.

Special Correspondence of the Chronicle. Atlanta, Ga., Juno 3.—Referring to the Railroad Commission and ito powers, I have seen a statement in the Macon Tele graph and Messenger, editorially given, that a certain railway enterprise in the State bad halted because capitalists would not invest in it on account of the arbitrary control over the management given to the com mission. I know myself of a similar case. A very important line of road, run- ng through a valuable section, connect ing feeding points, and partially graded, would to.day be in the hands of men who desire to invest their money in it. but they decline because they are afraid to invest in pro|>erty whose management Is in the hands of officials. 1 would not be understood as meaning to urge tho repeal of the law creating a commission, and I believe that the rail roads themselves do not desire this. But I do believe that a modification of the ex traordinary powers of tho commission would not only be in conformity with a proper public policy nnd on tho line of the law and the constitution, but it.would be for the interest of tue public and for the benefit of all of our private enterprises. And I believe it must come to this soon. Foreign capital lias been and is ready to come into our railway projects. The rail way is the greatest single instrumentality of our progress. Any public policy that frightens away capital from our midst in any line of investment should be carefully cousideied. It is a fact that an important railway enterprise is languishing. It be hooves the people to dispassionately inves tigate the matter. It is to be regretted that in the discussion upon the subject there should have arisen some little asper ity and a tendency to a dogmatic spirit. We cannot reach the truth by this sort of feeling. Those who believe in the commission must do so because they believe its re- •ults to be good. They must be reached by a practical demonstration of the error of their views. Those who advocate m modi fication of the powers of tho commission, so as to make it rather an arbiter between the people and the railroads and not the arbitral master of our railwavs, are gov erned by their conviction of the public in terests, and the champions of the commis sion ns it stands must respect their sin cerity. I have not aliaded to the question of the effect of the action of the commission on the income of the railroad:. The man- ngers complain that their profits have been cut down to an injurious figure and their stock has depreciated. This would constitute an additional and very strong reason for looking into the matter fairly and dispassionately. The next General Assembly should investigate tho subject and do what is for the public welfare. DEJECTION AT THE WHITE HOUSE. The Private Wire Brintlng Little of Hope to the President. New York Times. Washington, June 2.—Dispatches re ceived here this evening, declaring that the Arthur managers at Chicago had given up hope and were striving to turn their men over to Postmaster-General Gresham, have excited more interest than any convention news hitherto received from the West. It is generally believed to be true, and the stay-at-home politicians are now trying to guess whether or not enough of the Arthur votes can be deliver ed to secure Gresham's nomination. Opinions differ widely on this point, but the Bluine men declare that any attempt to transfer the Arthur votes will fail, be cause wry many oi 'he President's nomi nal delegates arc o’.lv waiting for a favor able moment to throw their ballots for the Man from Maine, who better represents their peculiar notions ot what a President should be than either of the men favored by the Independents.

Paris, June L—The Vienna correspon dent of the Gauloit says: “There are symptoms of a break up of the triple alli ance. Since the interviews between M. dr Olers, the Russian minister of foreign af fairs, and Prince Bismarck, at Friedrichs- robe, the mutual eonfldences of the courts at Berlin and Vienna are ceu'ng.

The Pre.idcnt's friends, who seem to be steadily falling off in number, deny that he is out of the race, but asserts that Uresham could poll most of the Arthur votes if it was thought advisable. Visitors to the White House this evening say that the Arthur crowd is demoralized, and that the air there is decidedly deurcsstng. Tiie information that comes over the Presi dent's private wire Is not such as to en courage bis intimate associates to shout with joy. Mr. Uresham has many warm friends here, even among those who have hoped tosee Blaine or Arthur nominated, and. if the convention's choice should fall upon him, the news would bawell received in Washington. Mr. Blaine and most of hie family left here thia afternoon for his home in Au gusta, and thence to Bar Harbor for the the hot weather. A number of friends said good bye to hint at the atation, and ex pressed their hope of congratulating him when they nest greeted him.

Watcross Reporter. “Railroad property asks nothing more than to be put on a footing of equality, in tho matter of protection, with all other property. No good rea son has ever been given for placing railroad interests beyond the pale of protection.” A citizen picked up a copy of tiie Macon Telegraph ash Messenger tho other day, and, reading tiie above par agraph, asked tho question: when wero railroad interests placed beyond the pale ot protection, and by what au thority? stating at tho same time that ho lived in tho country, and though ho read two or tlireo newspapers, he knew nothing about it. A bystander explained that he supposed tho paragraph was written in allu sion to the Railroad Commission law of the State, by which tho Com mission were empowered to alterand change tho railroad freight tariffs as they thought proper; and in the event that any railroad company refused to obey tiie behests of tiie Commission, that such company bo prosecuted by the Commission nnd a heavy fine im posed for each offense. Why, said the citizen, 1 was iu favor of tho Railroad Commission myself, hut that takes the milroaiis virtually out of the hands of the railroad companies, and places their management in the hands of tho Commission. That waa not the object 1 had in view when l (favored tho Commission. I thought it was to regulate, not to take possession of or confiscate tiie railroads. No sensible inau in tills country would he willing to deny equal protection to Jr., J.Q. Lester, L. V. Livlu?;ston andT. Guinn. The convention also elected a new Democratic ezecutive committee for the county, as follows: Dr. J. J. Dearlng, chairman: Messrs. J. W. Swords, R. C. Cook, L. F. Stephenson, T. M. Meriwether. James C. Payne, W. H. Gaither, Grant I). Heard, Alfred Livingston, A. S. Franklin and James Richards. Some interest is being manifested in Congressional politics, and Col. Hammond’s friends are confident that ho will receive the support of this county. So far, very little has been said about candidates for the Legislature and none have been announced. It is proba ble that prohibition will be the issue in the coming campaign, as there is in the coun ty a strong element of opposition to the liquor traffic. LEXINGTON.

ISM, February and August when n ragged l..Uo girl with i» •• ;i-b of very common flowers stepped up t- one of tiie gentlemen nnd asked him to buy some of the flowers. This gentle men thought to have some sport at the K or girl’s expense, and pointed to ah lteese, whose hack • was turned toward them, and who was earnestly engaged in conversation with someone, and said, “That gentleman wanlssome flowers.” The little girl tiiuitiiy touched Mr. Reese's coat and asked him if ho wanted to buy some flow ers. Mr. Reese looked down upon the little girl ami took in her circumstances at at a glance, and olievlng the promptings of his big warm heart quickly replied, “Certain ly," ami pulling out bin purse he paid her for three bouquets, one of which ho gave to tho gentleman with whom he was conversing, one hcpit-ncl unon the lanpel of Iris coat, and the other he turned and presented to tire heartless fop who thought to humiliate the poor girl. Tiie best part of it was Mr. Reese knew nothing about wliat had occurred between the little girl and the man behind his back, and his actions were not prompted by a desire to rebnke the gentleman (?) but simply to help the ragged flower girl. Bat the crowd saw The Express Company has a little. and appreciated tbe timely and well dog that is mail with everything that merited rebnke, and no did the party comes near it, and protecta the prop erty of tiie company on all occaaioas.
