THE iKi EOFHAPTT AND MESSRNOFB. FRIDAY. DECEMBER 26. 1884, ALBANY AND PALMYRA. A RACY LETTER FROM OUR 8TAFF CORRESPONDENT. Sketches of Some Prominent Men, and DtLcriptlons of a Remarkable People—Theif Descendants Now Among us. Ax.ba.ky, Ga., December IS.—I have to-day been all over Albany upon an exploring expe dition. I have examined the elegant hotels, for Albai y, you know, is now a famous winter resort, have slppeJ artesian water from both wells, have looked Into the flourishing business oi the place and done all that a con adentlous and highly-interested correspond ent should do. In fact, 1 have accomplished what a hundred of like profession have done before me, and with the same results. But lest you nisy think yourself doomed to the perusal of a conventional letter of travel, Ihautun to stale thnl I have done moro. Tip- pad back In a comfortable, wide, hollow-back, split-bottom chair,with the smoke of nullavana drifting abou. me and wreathing Itself into peaked and vail eyed semblance of the fair Queen of the Antilles, I have explored the old forgotten paths that lead up to this city from If its quaiut ancestress, sleeping away yonder in tho forests. There is no legend so rare, no history so fair, no memory so beautiful as those that fall from the lips oL old age. 1'eu nor pencil can ontliue them, nor can written words, howsoever deftly joined, stir the Imagination as do the look, the tone, the ges ture, nay the presence of the raconteur. These make the impression that can never be recou- veyed. Palmyra! Was it because it rose lu tho desert that the old settler, John Woolhrlght, who fifty years ago pitched his tent upon a fair bluff of the Kincnafot -e, first ho called it? It matters not;: Palmyra .1 was. Palmyra it Is. and yet is not. The site of the town haa been Indicated. waa not long after the first settler’s smoko arose before the colony came. S'rang, vigor ous. hardy men; beautiful, independent, self- reliant women; blnc-cyed and black-eyed maidens came and made their homes near Woolbrlght Not mere adventurers these, but noble families of well-bred people from Talia ferro and from Greene. These purchased immense tracts of land and laid the foundations for principalities, gin fular error. To escape the Impending dis orders of brokcu land in fertile regions, these social emigrants settled away in the piny woods rather than upon the creeks, only t< find tberaseivcs resting abote vast deposits of THE VIWCIN1A MIDLAND.

The net earnings in 1881 were $81,390 less than in 1883. The decrease in gross earnings was due to the falling off of the through freight revenue.

Argument Begun In His Case Against the Gouthorn Telsgraoh Company. .TELEGRAPHED TO THE ASSOCIATED TRESS.] Norfolk, December*"' -The hearing in the esse of Mahone and .o-uers against the Southern ^Telegraph Company, in which a receiver is asked for, began to-day before Judges |Bond and Hughes, of the Untied States Circuit Court. General B. F. Butler appeared as one of counsel for the plaintiff and General Bradley T. Johnson appeared for the defense. The defense moved to dismiss .the suit for want of jurisotion, and the discussion of this motion con sumed the entire day. The motion was overruled and the case adjunrned until Monday, when, the court said, nominauous for a receiver would be heard. The plaintiff, Sen- —In your city. 1 believe. ator William F.

Jouath&n Davis, a promlnont minister of the Baptist persuasion, auu-n of liberal views, energetic and eloquent. He was a towc r of mcutal and physical strength. To him was largely due the credit of making the rose bloom in the wilderness; of bilngitig order out of chaos. Palmyra flourished. It became a town of 'elegant homes, beundlcss hospitality and no hotels. It flourished and it died. Beautiful Palmyra, rich in u auly strength, superb in womanly virtues, fell a». last. Tho fair Zeno- bia reigned and with Palmyra passed away. Waa It time alone that tumbled down hor bat tlements? Or was it that relentless Roman conquerer, the railroad? Was the grandeur of Palmyra dragged away In tho wako of a triumphal car? 1 forget. But no matter, it passed. The beautiful place is now part of a private estate. Even Its owner lives elsowhcre through her children. The Mercers. Janes Randalls, Davises, Gilbert*. Hlllsmana, Vcaons all look up and smile when you menthn Palmyra. They are descend ants of tho old Palmyrans; people who have Impressed themsches, their energy, their minds upou every decade, every* period of their country’s history, and yet honor their old mother. From this old stock comes the present haidsome Mayor Gllbeit, of Albany, (he eminent physician P. L. II ill* man and Col. John A. Davis, president of the Bruns- wlok and Western railroad, a man of State reputation. Judge Vason him self is yet hero. Uo hung nut his shingle first at Palmyra when tho palmy days were with her. aud the broad enviable reputation he has dates from the pure, young influences •hed upon him as he drew Inspiration from nature a heart where nestled the village fair. AU these names dwell In legends. How ean 1, a stranger, touch the chord which vi bratos so sweetly beneath the bands of those who know the strings, or bid imsginatlon take the hues of memory* Everybody hero knows Gcueral Henry Morgan. The Ueneral was Palmyra's school- matter In tho old tlmo days, and his estab lishment was not unit that aay that time waa when "as you approached the temple of learning, the sound of tho birch might be heard urging some tardy loltorer along the flowrry path of knowledge. r ’ And there are those living who will testify that tho General could not be excelled In swinging tho birch, oven by lank ahd sinewy fchabod Crane. / Bui the General has long since thrown down tho rod,to shine the Nestor of his bar. Wor shipping the blind goddess In his serious mo ments, he woes tho muse In lighter hours, vnd those who kuow, say that bis epic Is not inferior to the polished style of his legal ad dress. There Is another gentleman here, who dates back to Palmyra; liefer to Major Ham Cook, formerly of Putnam, later of Monroe and last- iy tof Albany. This roving factor In the Bute’s progress is now a stationary factor In the cotton tine It is said the Major drifted clear to Florida, deslrlug to sow ids wild oats upon foreign so'l, tasted the bitter and the sweets if life under all circnmatancea, and finally fell back into the hoaplteble arms of Palmyra with no capital except bis honest face and willing muscles. The M-jor never had but me political ambition. He aspired to be con- ••table of Palmyra district, and, whether os a Whig or Democrat, high or low tariff, I don’t know—got there. M*J<» Cook, as constable, performed a re markable legal exploit which still clings to nlm like a tradition. “A." was plaiutlfi’ aud ‘B." Insolvent de feudaut In fl. fa. The papers went into Cook's hands with peremptory trdert that levy be made In time for next •ourt sale. **A f ’ left borne to be abseuton •curt day. On tuai usy -Cv : the surety, ted out to the constable a certain bay .n c la possession of “A.’a” minor son, who nal bought her of “B.'s" minor son. "A.” waa much attached to the mtre, and his aston- shraent may be Imagined when he found his *ct levied on to satisfy bis own fl. fa His -ousternstlou was increased wheu found surety, bad given orthcoralng bond for the mare «nd run her out of the county. “A" In his eager went to Cook aud told him he might testroy the fl. f*. If he would bring back the .nare and not charge costs. This Is the only natonce on record of a contract fully per form -d by a tort, without pleadings or judg ment of the couru, and in compliance with the strictest principles of equity. But I mast f make this theme snd turn to another- Albany Is fortunate In the possession of an dement In her pot ulatlou few cities possess, f refer to her Jewish citizens, who have so handsomely disproved the ancient charge hat they benefit no community. There ire here in’rty to thirty-five families of Jews, «ome of whom w.re ploueer settlers. These aaka up twenty firms that deal in groceries, t-y goods, wholesale and retail, and run one i and some bar, as also one first-class livery table. The latt »r is presided over by a "horse •Xpert." They also furnish two or three cot- pcarcdonly by attorneys, and raised the question of jurisdiction, contending that the telegraph company cannot be sued in Virginia, it being a New York corporation, and they argued it did not appear from the record that any effort had been made by \he plaintiff to have the trustee furnish nu Inventoly of the property entrusted to him before asking the court to interfere. John 8. Wise and Gen. Butler contended tor the plaintiff that the jurisdiction of the court was clear and unquestionable, and stated in argument that bonds of tho Southern Telegraph Company to the amount of $1,300,000 had been ab stracted from the vaults of the Farmers’ Loan and True? Company by A.W. Dimon, president . .he Bankers’ and Merchauta’ Telegraph Company, and are now found in the hands of the receiver of the latter company as assets, and although obtained by trend they are liable to pass into the ban Is of innocent persons, and thus impair greatly the value of the plainti IFs property. Nothing bat the interference of this court now. they contended, would save the plaintiff and others similarly situated from irrrep&ra- hie injury. There was a large attendance and the arguments were listened to with the closest attention. Pennsylvania Miners. ?rrriBUBo, December 20.—A river coa miners’ strike was inaugurated to day at a number of pits. Last night the diggers quit work and cave notice to the jperators that they would not resume until the price mining is increased from 2}*' to cents in the first, second and third pools, and from 2 to 2U in the fourth pool. President Costello will he among the min ers agitating the strike for several days, and it is thought the demand on Monday will ba almost unanimous, though many digger* are in destitute circumstances and have not worked six weeks in the last six months. The coal exchange met Unlay and decided unani mously to resist the advance demanded by the miners. Operators having stores have ordered the manager! not to s«U any more goods to the miners on credit, and in a few cases diggers iu the fourth paol who are behind in rent have bejn notified by the officer* of the law to pay. In the four pools 4,000 men are employed. A Welcome to Randall. Nabbvills, December 20.—The county Democratic committee to-day adoyteJ unanimously a resolution that the Democ racy of Tennessee, looking from the home of Jackson and Polk, behold in the visit of Sauluel J.

A committee of reception was appointed to welcome Mr. Randall to Tennessee. A BRUrAi. OUTRAGE. A Young Lady Assaulted Under Peculiar Clrcumetancea—other Events. | SPECIAL CORREHPON DUNCE. | Atlanta, December 19.—The particulars are disclosed to-day of, an outrage com mitted on Decatur street last nirht. At 338 Decatur resides Mr. William Cates, who is employed with the Bruuswick-Balke Bd iard Company. He is now traveling in Florida, and his wif - and litt’e s m are alone in the house. In the neighbornooi lives the reputable family of Mr. A. J. Jackson, of the firm of V. M A A. J. Jack- son, boxtnaksvs. ua t night Mrs. Cries requested th*. Mis- J ickiou an e ghteen- year-old young lady, daughter of Mr A. J. Jackson, be allowed to spend the night with her for company. Alter some demur on the part of the young lady, content wns given and the young lady went over for the night Borne time after mi bright there was a knock at the doo \ and upon being asked who was there the person replied that it wns Gurst Benninger, a young man jwho formerly boarded at the house aud had come here some time si nee with Cates, both in ths employ of the Brunswick tfalke Company. He was admitted, and enter ed the house with a pistol in his hand He made some violent demonstra’ionf, and succeeded by threats with his pistol and violence in ac coruplishing a brutal ontrjge upon the young girl. Bmninger immediately fled and the young girl in her distress and barelv clad ran to her fath-r’s house and reported the occurrence. The matter was reported to police headquarters, aud Ben* ninger was aftwrwarde arreste l at the At lanta Hotel and is now lodged at the police station, awaiting an examination, which will probably be had to-morrow. Benninger is about thirty years old, a good-looking German and a bat -r a Jack’s cracker factory. In the cell to-night he appears consid erably excited and says he was drunk lari n’ght at the time of the outrage. There are some singular circumstances connect ed with the affair, which will prouably come out in the preliminary examination to-morrow, if it shall he had to-morrow. Mr. George C. Jenner, general agent of the Georgia Pacific, seeing that the au thorities of Philadelphia were about to consent to loan the old Independence bell to the New Orleans exposition,telegraphed to-day to the mayor of PutiaUelphia that the Georgia Pacific railway, the new through line between Atlanta and New Orleans would take pleasure iu hauling the bell free of charge over its line aud^r- range for its transportation over connect ing lines. In this connection it may be stated that the Georgia Pacific on Sunday.Jast put on a lightning expre e a schedule between At lanta and New Orleans, leaving Atlanta at 1:30 p. m., reaching New Orleans at 7 a. m. The road-bed is in uplerdid condition and all its equipments first class. Those who travel over this line to the exposition will be delighted wi h the Mann boudoir car.

Dublin Ga., December 18.— Editor* Tel egraph and Meuenger: Through your col umns the people of the counties of Twiggs, Laurens, Pulaski and Wilkins m desire to draw the attention of the people of Macon, and particularly your merchants and bus iness men, to their contemplated enter prise of constructing a narrow-gauge rail- road from Macon via Jeffersonville to Dub lin, and some way get at the popular stn timent of your people touching that which seems to be and really is of vast impor tance to the future prosperity of your city. Surely the merchants of Macon and bus iness men of all classes can’t he insensiole to the increased advantages accruing to them by the construction of such road. Whiie our people earnestly desire the road and wi J contribute very liberally to wards its construction, yet as Macon will be mure largely benefited, it is not unrea sonable to expect of her liberal .substantial aid to this important enterprise. Among the many advantages secured to Macon by this road would be the immedi ate change of not less than 2b,000 balei of cotton from Savannah to Macon, and the trade incident thereto, which now goes chiefly to Savannah. Connecting at Dublin with the boating interest on the Oconee river, which now carries to the East Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia and Central r iads the pioducts of this section of the country, Macon would not only secure the trade and shipments of the counties through which the road would pass, but also be sustained by the boats on the river for a distance of lorty to fifty miles below to Mt. Vernon by water and twenty miles above, Dublin as well as a vast extent of a rapidly growing section of country ly ing east and southeast of Dublin. Th* marvelous progress and prosperity of agricultural interests in that section is highly commendable and not only deserves but commands • he attention of the trade centres of the State. Will Maconpursue any longer a course so palpably detrimental to her future welfare, ana permit Savannah to take from her all that vast trade which ie geographically considered her trade. If the Wrigbtsviile and Tennille road is extended at contemplated to Dublin, what possible hope could Macon ever have of controlling any of the products of this prosperous section and its trade, without the agency of the contemplated rose from heretoMacun? Why will Macon be so f iasslre and indifferent? Contrast her en- erprire in such matters with Atlanta and Augusta for the lost twenty years. What has Macon done? What nave the cities above named done and what are they do ing now? If yoor people will reflect, sure ly they will and mast admit the truth of the charge that, while Augnata and Atlauta have and era now extending their railroads in every direction. Macon has notbuilta single mile of road in nearly a quarter of a century. If this po Icy continues a few more years, her - liter cities will penetrate every portion of her territory and draw support from her Tery doors. Can’t Ma con be ar ”*ed,or will she Insist on an other Rip -n Winkle sleep. If yon can wake her np sufficiently, and when she has time to rub her eyes, the people who are moving in the matter which has prompted this letter would like to hear from her and welcome a strong delegation of her basinets men at a gen eral meeting of the counties above, men tioned to be held at Allentown January 3d, next What will her answer be ?

In the purchase of goods to be shipped by i common carrier, a qnesilon frequent ly erises aa to the rights of the consignor or seller, and the consignee or buyer in caee of loss or damage to the goods. De livery of the goods by the seller to the car rier, designated by the buyer, or, if tone be designated, to the carrier In the uausl course of business, passes tLe title to the buyer. Tbe consignee becomes the own er and is liable to the consignor for the ^ urchase price according the terms of the oontraot. If the goods are lost or dam aged in transit, or if they arrive -’short” on account of any interference with them in the carrier's hands, the con signee’s redress for the loss or damage is against tbe carrier. The right of action follows the ownership of the goods. However, iuasfuuch as the con tract for transportation is made with the consignor, he may rue for the breach of the contract, therecoverv in such cases being for the benefit oi the consignee. On the other hand, if the consignor retains property in the goods after ehipment, or if the risk of transportation is, by the con tract, upon bint, he may for hia own bene fit recover the loss or damage from the carrier. Where goods are sold on credit, the seller may, upon discovering the buy er’s insolvency, stop them in transit at any time betore they have been delivered into the actual possession oi the buyer, but this right cannot be exercised against a bona fide transferee of the bill of lading, errx courts. The constitution ot Georgia recognizes three courts of record (not including here the Supreme Court, which has only appel late Jurisdiction), superior, county and city courts. The two former are organ ized under the provision of general laws, and the jurisdiction and procedure of these courts cannot be changed by am special law so as to meet local require ments. City courts, diowerer, may be or ganized to meet the demands of civil and criminal business in any county, and if any part of the law creating a city court works badly, it can be amended; it i< a- pable of adaptation and ImproT.ii.t. Doubtless this is one reason why Colum- bus, Rome, Gainesville, Athens aud Car rollton have recently provided themselves with city courts, they having been already established in Scvannah, Angnsta and Atlanta. The necessity of either a county or city court grows out of the necessity of reliev ing the Superior Court of a portion oi the litigation and criminal business in the county. Unless this were done in this county the Superior Court would be in ses sion practically alt the year round. It has exclu-ive jurisdiction of equity cases, ail cases involving land, divorces and felonies, and therefore can only be relieved by giv ing another court jurisdiction of misde meanors, actions on contract and injuries. A city or county court can dispose oi mis demeanors better than the Superior Court, because (1) Us terms are more frequent, and it thus saves jail fees, and (2) the only procedure in misdemeanor cases in the Superior C^rt is ‘ ' d by jury, wheress in the other courts the? av be, and generally are, tried by the judge alone. The advan tage of the city coart over the county court will be noted next week. miscbllahy. The covenant in deeds to warrant and ’’defend” the title is a curious survival of the historical time, reflected in the pages of - Ivanboe,” when Jewish money-lend er* taking mortgage deed* from (so called) Christian knights exacted of the latter an agreement to defend the title. The de fense in thote daye was with the knlghfe retainer!; and to this day a warrantor oi a title would "retain" counsel to defend it, but in a somewhat more peaceful manner. Mr. Justice Maniatry, who tried the lioel cult oi Adams against young Coleridge, made a Dr. Bnrchard of himself, and the English law journals have not acrnplsd to say io. If there was no evidence of mal ice in the young man's letter to his sleter about her lover, or II it waa a privileged communication, he should have nonsuited the case. To submit it to a jury and then act aside their verdict iiulantir wai irregu lar and savored of aervillty to the clrief justice. In Kosteg vi. Slate (5 Sap. Ct.

Nxw Okleaxs, December 17.-The rainy weather to day kept many people away from the exposition, bat the exhibitors, workingmen and others were on hand and busy all day putting things in better order. A great deal of work was done, but a great deal still remains to be done, and tbe weather and almost constant rain interfere materially with thle. The roads to the exposition are almost impassable, and the unloading of the cars is very difficult, slow and tedious. All outside work is conse quently set back, but that inside the build ing can be carried on. A large number of new platforms were erected to-day, and new exhibits displayed in the main build ing. The government building is about four-fiftus full, and can be puMu complete order in a week. Every State and Terri- tory in the Union is represented save three, and, strange to say, one of the three is New kork, the other two being Penn sylvania and Georgia. The Pennsylvania exhibit has arrived, and Georgia isouits wav here. The stock yards and stables are not yet completed, and, of course, are unocoupied. They will be finished by December 30th. The art gallery is completed, but few pic. lures have been hung. It will be thor- onchly ready by Monday, and the display will be very large and fine. The exposition is aboutionr or five days behindhand with its work. The exhibitor* are farther be hind. It will take fully a week to get the State exhibits in order, and about’ten days to get that oi tbe United States complete. The great bulk ol tbe foreign exhibit* will be arranged within a week, but some will not reach here before January. As a gen eral thing, taking tho main and govern ment buildings, It may he said that every- thing will be arranged within * week, which, it is claimed, is as good aa the Philadelphia or any other great exhibition has ever done. Several of the foreign exhibits were un packed to-day. They fall below expecta tion, and nnless there is a great improve ment in the next month the European dis play will be very insignificant. France and Great Britain show nothing wfirthy ot those conntrles. Mexico and the Central American States and the West Indies do better. So does Japan, Siam, India,Chlna, and the Orient generally, there being a number of exhibitors from all these coun tries. Machinery Hall is quite full, but the ma chinery has not yet begun to work well. It will take several days to gel it properly prepared, the belting in good order, and the machinery moving easil' 1 and smooth ly-,, Two dsya ago the galleries of this building were almost nnoccnpied. To-day they are two-thirds full. They are reserved principally for furniture, carpets, engrav ings, and similar light objects, snd sre un doubtedly the most handsomely decorated snd upholstered portion of the building. The woman's work yet fails to materi alize. although there is yet a very large number of cases and packages awaiting unpacking. In Horticultural Hall the opening fruit display proved a failure. It w«i expected to have 26,000 to 30,000 plates oi fruit on exhibition from 40 States and Territories. The fruits did not arrive on time, and tbe exhibition was only one-tenth what waa expected. Nebraska supplied one-half of these, while Louisians, although her fruits sre just now ripening, had hardly any thing on exhibition. Tbe great fruit dis play, however, Is fixed for the middle of Janaary, and it la hoped to show some thing very fine then. Hortlcultnral Hall has been completed for months, so that there was no reason for this failure except the unfortunate blockade of freight here. In the government bnildlng things are being put rapidly inorder. Since yee- terday California, Arkansas, Iotva and New Jersey have arranged their exhibits. The Federal government is still backward. The navy has nearly a full exhibit So •Iso have the 8mithsoulan Institution and the geological survey. The patent office has only one-fifth oi its models on exhibl- tion. The State Department it leas than half done, and the Post- Office far Irom completed. This bnildlng is drawing bet ter audience* then tbe main building and If being more admired. Pennsylvania and Arlsona hoisted their signs to-day and gay* notice that they would begin to pre pare their exhibits In a few days.
