THIEF, LIAR, SCOUNDREL, COWARD, AMONO TUB XFITHXTS ATPLIXD BV BXTBI- SINTATIVa CORNELL TO EDITOR OANTT— A BBIBT BUT LIVELY SPEECH— SUICIDE OP A WELL-KNOWN LADY—THE CAPITOL C0WHIS- SION. Telegbaph Bureau, 17J4 Peachtree St., Atlanta, August 20,1886. Mr, Connell, the gentleman from Deca tur, disturbed the serenity ol the House ol Representatives and the monotony of local legislation by rising to a question of per sonal privilege this mornli g. Mr. Con nell was tbe anthor and introducer of the late bechelor bill, which, lot a season, gained a State, and perhaps national nolo, riety. The character ot the bill and the 'asset citizens it proposed to burden with _ special tax, the indlgoation meetings held at the capital by bachelors, brought tbe matter into some prominence- ami It was widely discussed. Some editors made tbe bill arid lie author the butt ot their humor and sarcasm. Mr. Connell was of the opinion that the Athens Banner-Watchman went over the line and attacked him without warrant, and nnjnstly and mallclonsly. Tbit at tack ot the Banner-Watobman he had read in tbe Honse this morning, and said: "Mr. Speaker and gentlemen ot the Honse, toe bachelor bill oidnotccninmeten min utes’ time ot the Legislature, and 1 am cheerfully willing lo leave It to this body how mneb it cost the State and I will pay hi amount out ot my own pocket. And, have this to say ol Mr. Gantt, editor of the Banner-Watchman, that he la a cow ard, be la a liar, he Is a thief, and he Is a scoundrel. He ought to have been in tbe penitentiary ot Georgia ten years ago, and be will never get justice nntll his neck la stretched three feet by a good, new hemo rope. If what I have said wUl smoke him ont ol his den, I would like to hear again Irom 'ho infamous, cowardly poppy Mr. Connell is a gentlemen of medium height and bnild, with a frank, open face, broDzed by the low-country son. He is rather qnlet tn his manner and bearing, and baa the air of a man who la amply able to take care of himself. Hti remarks, as quoted, Indicate that he la decidedly ontspoken. SUICIDE OP MBS. EDDLEMAN. To the already long Hat ot snlcldes which is rapidly making Atlanta noted is to be added another which la In many respects nnnsnally touching as well as remarkable. Until a tew years ago, when it fallal, one ot tbe most prominent basinets bonses in the city was the shoe honee of Messrs. Kddieman & Brown. The senior member of that firm wea Mr. Frank Eddlcman, who died about two years ago. He lefts wife and a daughter, who was Happily married a lew weeks sg->, and three sons, who are all well and favorably known in Atlanta. It is stated that Mrs. Eddleman nevsrreeovertii fr.un tin- gri.-( i r mi i.-u-i by the death of her bnaband and haa ever since been despondent and In ill health, Both her mind and natrons syitem seemed more or !•■• afiected.bat not to inch an *sf tent as to cause the family any uneasi ness. Last night the family gathered as nsnal at their pleasant residence at 1G6 Ivy afreet, and over the home circle was cast noahadowot tbe sad trsgedy which the morning would reveal. Daring the day and evening Mra. Kddieman up- pmed In unusually good heailh and spir its. At the nsnal time the family retired. Mrs. Eddleman went to her room apd was not seen again alive. At wbat hour she took her life is not known.bat tt la pro snmed from all appearancea that It was very soon altar going to her room. It seemid that she took a sheet troro the bed, twisted it into a rope, tied one end to tbe onter knob of the door, threw the other over into the room, tied a noose aronnd her nick, stood upon a trank which aha poshed near, and when tbe fital moment came, del beralely jumped tff. the wae found in tbatman- ner impended this morning whan the ser vant want to tha room, whan the body waa discovered life had been tome time extinct. Death resulted from itrangnia- tion. Tbe deceased was an excellent lady, re fined and cnllnred. She was tbe daughter of the late Major Steele, who was the edi tor ol tbe Atlanta Intelligencer. His widow Is still livirg. Mrs. Eddleman, the unfortunate de ceased, was in her 46th year. She was a member of the Central Presbyterian church. She will hi buried to-morrow at Oakland.

Ha PWilt Btd the ,>urfeCl* bat practically the pilot laws of 1790 have Einco been In force, covering a period of • v-if y Th-» pilot ayetern of thia State, ao I am informed by Capt. Fleet- wood, an old Savannah pilot, who has been in the businesj for thirty-five years, is the same as that of ereryport in thewoMd. Under tba custom ami under the law aa in terpreted by eighty-*ix years, every vessel incoming or outgoing has been compelled to pay pilotage. The vtasel is bound to take the first pilot that reaches her coming in, and ns 1 understand It, is compelled to employ the same pilot to come out, or pay ti ' :nl j*il ktug»*. ! hat 1ms beer* the law and the custom for eighty-six years. Re cently a decision rendered by the Supreme Court waa by certain parties, the owners of tugboats, construed to mean that vessels that got into port without a pilot are not compelled to take a pilot going cut. 8in> 0 that time the owners of tugs have gone as extensively as they conld into the pilot business, without any <»' Urn itMrirn.i'iN «n Hit* n. »- • ", out auy of the compulaoiy duties, penal- ties or forfeitnres that attach to rtgnUr licensed pilots. The pi'ota now come to the Legislature in tbe bill referred to and ask for the passage of a law that will pro tect them in the rights and privileges they nave enjoyed since 1799, and which are given in every pilot system the wjrld over. In many countries the pi ot laws have lately been revised and perfected on this poiut. and that is all that is a»ked by Georgia pilots. There are abor.t JG0 pilots in Geor gia ports, skilled by long training, having thn confidence of the shipping interest at home and abroad. They are lictneed un der many legal restraints, have perilled their lives year in and year ont In the business, and it would seem that what teey ask is reasonable enough. Tbe fight against them is made by the tug Interest and it may be called tug vs. pilot. The landlubbers in the L-gtslatnre taking an active interest on either side of tbe question, talk glibly and eloquently of naatlcal matters, as though they had all been brought up at sea, and what they will do with tbe matter is aa yet known only in heaven* DIED OH TOE WAT. The Air Line fast mail from the North came in at 10 o'clock to-day on schedule time. In one of the sleepers was a gentle man who had been spending some weeks at tbe Bnflalo I.ithia Sprirgs, Va. He left the springs yesterday, as a receipted IUU Pjinti^a jratc.uny, aa n <(ruci)nru hotel Bill indicates. After getting on tbe Air Lino, bo was taken sick, and 10 seri ously that a physician was anmmonex. After examination tbe physician decidrd tbat hia patient conld not possibly live till tbe train reached Atlanta. Tbe medio.- opinion was nearly correct, for aa tbe train rolled nnder the car shed here tbe sufferer breathed bit last. Capt. Konts. ol tbe Pullman office here, was notified and responded promptly. The dead man was carried from tbe depot to the nndertakei'a u, .umu . uumm ornuvr, ..m , establishment of Patterson & Bowden, in .ipim confident your well know n qualities ol Tba Benato la not In nation to-day. Tbe Honse waa called to order t y the Speaker pro Uat., and opened with prayer by lha cnaplaln. House bills were read a second time.
