By Mall and Wire to The Constitution. Albany, November 29.???Ed. A. Cutliff, a son of our worthy townsman, Captain John AI. Opt)iff, died last evening at bis father???s house in this city, after a protracted illness of typhoid fever. He was a young man of promise, barely twenty-one yeaw of age, and was one of a large family of brothers, all of whom are well known and exceedingly popu lar in this section. Notwithstanding his yputii, lie had ltccn in business in Albany for several years past, in which lie was thing well. 'Hie bereaved family have the sympathies of our entire community ami of a wide circle of acquaintance outside, to whom the deceased was jiersnnally known. The firm of Tison ??t Carter, of Lees burg, faileil last week and made an assign ment, making G. W. Warwick, of Sinith- vdlc, assignee. We have not learned the full extent of liabilities nor amount of assets, but presume they are in the usual Georgia pro portion. The firm did a large business in Ia-eshurg, and had branch stores in Stoekville and at Jordans Store, in Lee county. Up to the time of the break it was apparently in a prosperous and flourishing condition. The senior of the firm was the late J. I???. Tison formerly a senator from this, the Tenth, dis trict, ami whose tragical death at the hands of Mr. John Calloway, one or two years since, will he remembered The firm name has remained unchanged since liis death, the business being carried on by the junior partner, Carter. We do not know who are the sufferers by this collapse. It is rumored that one Albany firm xas caught out for about $1,000. Have heard of no others aliout here. We have not heard whether the assignment will !>e allowed to stand. Under the late act of September IK, 1881, it would apt>cur that others besides the preferred cred itors would be allowed a voice in all sucli transactions in the future. Superior court is in session this week in Mitchell county Judge D. P. D. Warren presiding. Most of the Albany bar are in attendance. Little Gertrude Sterne, an interesting child of our townsman, Levi Sterne, about fotir years of age, died on Saturday night last o f riieuma tism of the heart. Albany, November 27.???From appearances a large number are making preparations for visit front Albany and vicinity to the exposi tion, as soon as the special rates for this sec tion go into effect, between the 5th and lltli prox. Quite a number have gone already^ and are still leaving daily without waiting lor the crowds on the special trains. All who have made the trip bring hack glowing ac counts of the show, and some are eagerly an ticiputing a renewal of their experiences. Tiie Albany artesian well, which on Thurs day last had attained a depth of ISO feet met with an accident by having the drill to break oil white making 'its way through an extra hard bed of (lint rock at that depth. Thisue eident occasioned a suspension of tiie work until the sunken piping could he removed when the work of I siring was begun on an other new well, located about two feet from the first. Work on this latter is going on sat isfactorily, and already some 50 or more feet have been I wired. On Wednesday last Messrs. J. A, J. S. Jones, merchants of Ca milla, were arrested on a warrant charging them with arson, in causing the disastrous lire which burned up the greater portion of the business part of Camilla, on the night of the first of January bust . The warrant was sued out at tiie instance of a detective, who had been quietly at work oil the case for some time. A court of inquiry, eonqiosed of three magistrates, heard the case on Thursday last, and after sitting and hearing testimony all day and far into the night, discharged tiie defendants. Solicitor-General Walters ap- l>eared for the state. We did not hear who represented the defendants, nor have we heard any further particulars of the trial, or grounds of suspicion. Tiie superior court for Mitchell convenes to-morrow, when tiie grand jury will .doubtless be charged with the case. -On last Wednesday night, in Worth county, near Warwick, a man named George Ryal was shot and killed hy Warren Story, at. the house of a man named Voting. It tli men were from Worth, and were known as des- { lornte characters. The particulars, us pttb- ished in the News and Advertiser this morn ing, are, that a party of men had assembled at Young???s house on that evening, and were engaged in drinking, gambling, etc. Ryal was soon overcome by his potations and laid down by the fire to sleep off the effects. Late ih'thc night a knock was heard at the door, and in response to thequerry, ???Who???s there,??? a voice replied, ???Warren .Story,??? At this Ryal sprang up, having lmd a previous diffi culty with Story, ami as the latter entered, after a preliminary remark, lie tired on him without effect. Story then grasped a double- barrel shot-gun loaded with buck shot and fired on Ryal, shootnig him in tiie breast, killing him instantly. ; yal is the man for whom under the name of Win.

Leonard, six miles from town, went home on Friday from the circus, and being very tired and cold when she readied home, sat down in front of the lire, and it is supposed dropped asleep. Her screams aroused Mr. Leonard, wiio had retired, and he ran to his back door and upon opening it, the cook rushed into his house in a light fiame. Mr. L. caught hold of her and shoved her out of the house and succeeded in extinguishing tiie flames. The poor woman lingered until esterdav and died.

In the mysterious grave robbery case of November 15. A body was exhumed, placed in a bag, hid under a clump of bushes in the park, and au attempt was made to re move it by three men, with a horse and buggy, when they were fired upon by cemetery employes aud escaped, leaving their conveyance and also the body. The case was at first supposed to arise out of religious differences,??? and that tiie body ex humed, supposed to be that of Kdward U r Bum- ham, formerly of Lancaster, twenty-eight years old. was to be taken to another cemetery to satisfy his friends. When it was found, however, that the body was that of an old man evidently over Go years of age, the ca>e assumed a new phase and was thought to be a conspiracy to defraud life insurance companies. The police have been working on the matter very quietly. A few days after the develop meets related lu the above Orin C. Thomas, resid ing in Babcock street. East Buffalo, was arrested on suspicion of being concerned in the case. Uo made no admission, and his counsel succeeded in getting him brought before the police court, when he was discharged from custody. It was ascertained that Burnham had occupied a part of the house of Thomas, and the funeral took place from there. A postmortem examination showed that the body was full of strychnine aud that death must, in all prob ability, have been caused-by poisoning. 'Mils morning about 6:30 Thomas was again ar rested at bis residence by Detective Donovan, this time on a charge of munler. About noon he was taken before Police Justice King and arraigned on a deposition made by the detective, which sets forth he has good reason to believe murder has been committed aud that Thomas is an accomplice in the crime. The prisoner was ready for exami nation but the prosecution were not, and he was committed to jail until next Wednesday, when a hearing will be had. lie is 2S years of age, son of the late Horace Thomas, well known as a restau rant and hotel keeper for many years. Whatever else is know about the ease by the authorities will not be divulged at this time. The arrest, however, was warranted by facts in the possession of the police, and will probably lead to now and startling developments, which will be awaited with interest. This poiut is undoubtedly established: The body buried as that of Edward G. Burnham was not bis but that of au uukuown man who had been poisoned. The questions of the exact motive for this substitution aud for the exhumation of the corpse remain to be elucidated. Thu iden tity of the dead man has not been discovered, while Burnham is still missing, as well as one Parker, of Lancaster, in this county, an undertaker, who is believed to have been directly connected with thi disinterment and attempt to steal the body. It is promised that during the coming week all the facts will be disclosed. And Tells the Miserable story or Ills Existence. Washington.

The Arrcut of nn American 31arlne Captain bj the Hondara* Soldier*. New Orleans. November 26.???-The Times pub- lishos a statement that Dominique C. Efalo ASon, of this city, received a communication from W. C. Burchard, United States consul at Kuatan, which lie foftranled to the department of state at Wash ington. The communication gives an account of the seizure of the schooner May Evelyn, belonging to Efalo A Son, on the 8th instant, at the island of Utila, by a band of Ilondurian soldiers, who made Captain Anson a prisoner. A new master and a crew of five were put aboard, and Anson was placed under charge of a military officer and five soldiers, and taken to sea on a vessel. Theagent of Efalo 4 Son applied for permission to take ashore the money and merchandise shipped to him by his princiiHils, but the request was refused. The schooner was brought to Kuatan and went into port without her flag hoNted. The now com mander declared be had received orders from the commandant at Utila not to allow the American flag to be hoisted. Anson was taken to jail and is still confined there. The cause of the arrest is au alleged informality in the schooner's manifest in September. The vessel has been in Utila twice since but was not molested. A JUST RETRIBUTION. An Absent Hoy Return* .In Manhood nnd Kettle. Matters. New York. November SO.???Many years ago an or phan boy was taken from the house of refuge in New YonL to work for a Paleison farmer. After a while he complained that he was over-worked and beaten, and at last he ran away, telling the neigh bors before he went that he intended to come back again when a man, and ???squa*> off' with his un kind employer. On Thanksgiving day a stalwart young man callsd upon the farmer, and announced tnat he was the identical ???orphan," and that he had come to ???square off' with him, which he proceeded todo in the roost emphatic style, giving the man a sound thrashing. Ilis wife came to the rescue, but the young man also ???squared off' with her, and when a big dog was set on him. he polished off'the dog too. He theu announced that their accounts were all "squared off," and he would reti-rn to his western home, whence he had come expressly for the pur pose of fulfilling his threat made when a boy, and before a warrant could be issued for his arrest he was many miles away. All those who have given it a trial will not be without it. It cures. Dr. Bull???s Cough Syrup. THE TARIFF CONVENTION, Georgia Men taking l*urt in the Proceedings. New Yokk, November 20.???The second day???s ses sion of the national tariff convention was called to order at 10:30. The subject for discussion was the tariff commission. The first speaker was John Thompson, vice president of Chase National bank. He said that under the influence of a protective tariff the country had prospered beyond parallel, and grown beyond precedent. He then persistent ly asked the question ???why theu experiment with free trade??? Free trade would lie said bankrupt thousands of establishments, and throw millions of dependent, deserving operatives out of employ ment. This would bring witli it a panic, a de struction of credits, in short a revolution which, like the revolution of 1873. would cause depression aud despaireverywhere. The good results of pro tection are measured by our prosperity. The uad results of free trade may possibly be measured by bringing the product of European and Asiatic labor in coin|>ctition with Ameri can labor. Ai'ttr showing by statistics the popularity of silver coin, .ur. Thompson recom mended the removal of all restrictions on silver coinage aud the making of silver dollars not only for the United States but for all silver-using na tions. Let us have a paper currency based on the precious metals for domestic use and American curreucy for the outside world. The sooner silver and silver certificates constitute the major part of our money the further off will be panics aud revolutions. He also suggested that the people have the privilege of taking green backs from the treasury in exchange for interest bearing bonds, the bonds to be given back on the return of the greenbacks, the treasury saving the interest. The speaker recommended the appointment of a tariff commission, to be composed of protectionists, free traders and representatives of both political parties, mid hoped that any changes made in the existing laws would turn out to be mainly in the rectifying of real mistakes and abuses. The live minute rule for speeches was adopted. John Jarrett, president of the association of amalgamated iron and steel workers representative was. however, allowed the privilege of the floor for a longer period, in order that the views of the workingmen on the tariff question might be made known. Mr. Jarrett,in his remarks, said he represented to-day, about 600,000 working men, which, he said, was a solid phulaux of pro tectionists. Fair wages made the workingmen pro tectionists, and the reason that the English aud other workingmen preferred to live in this country. is not solely on aeeount , of the lrigner wages paid, but also owing to the fact that in America the workingman is recognized as a man aud a freeman. The speaker was gratified to ??ec that the sentiment of the convention was favor able to the workingman. The tariff was for the protection oi capital as well as labor. He admon ished the convention to keep the workingmen free and untrammeled, and the country would always prosper. He advocated the education of the workingmen, and said that every means should be adopted to encourage them to educate their children. He has always contended that the interests of labor and capital were identical. Col onel So riven, of Georgia, as representative of the rice industry, raid that the rice crop of lS60and lSGlwas 11.600,000 pounds, and of 1880 and 1881, 17,766.000 pounds. Only 150,000 pounds of the Amer ican crop were exported in the last vear. Thke away the duty on foreign rice and it will result in the same monopoly that brought seven hundred million pounds of foreign rice into this couutry-during the war. The average price of rice iu the United 8tate is J, cents per pound. This he considered was the result of the protective tariff. The general farming industry was treated by ex- Goveruor Urinuell, of Iowa. In conclusion, Gov- ernor Griunell ott'ered the following resolutions which were adopted by a unanimous rising vote??? with cheers: Ke.-olved. That the convention recognize, with especial satisfaction, the awakening interest in ma terial development In the southern section of our common country, as evidenced by the International cotton exposition now being held in Atlanta, Ga and we pledge to our brethren ot that section onr cordial support in maintaining for them that pro tection to home industry under which the nortliem states have so long prospered. Resolved, That we invite men of evorv political party and every section of the country to in vesti- gate the question of protection to American indus tries as a purely business question, and to judge it by the results achieved during the existence of the present tariff. Ex-Governor Bullock, of Georgia, was in the chair and presided during the active debate of the closing hours of the convention. - The committee of the western agricultural asso ciation, headed by Mr. Grinuell, will meet the cot ton planters on Tuesday at Atlanta. The following letter was read from M r. Blaine: Department of state, Washington, November 28. Mr. D. J. Houston. Chairman, etc.???My Dear Sir My official duties prevent my leaving Washington at this time. I am hence deprived of saving some thing which I would be glad to say in voirr conven tion if I had the opportunity to speak. In a brief note of excuse I Cannot discuss the tariff or ship ping question, and yet I will not omit an expres sion of my belief that at no previous time in the history of our country has the principle of pro tection to American industrv been so strong with the masses of the people as to-day. It was formerly an issue somewhat determined by latitude aud longitude, but those limitations have passed away and enthusiastic pro tectionists can now be found in Alabama as well as Massachusetts, in Uliuois as well as in Pennsvlva- nia. The west and south are joining the nortli and east in common belief that some manufacturers should be encouraged and developed iu every state in the union. I wish I could speak with the same confidence in regard to the prospects of American shipping, but 1 confess to some discouragements when I see the American minister to Brazil at this moment en route to Rio Janeiro, compelled to reach his post by going first to England or France in order to avail himself of a line of steamers. We are paying to Brazil annually more than $10,- 000.000 in gold twin to sell the balance of trade against us. Brazil, in turn, sends this money to Europe to pay for commodifies which we might at his place, closely guarded by two policemen and the i court officers. He was asked by Mr. Scoville to give some incidents from liis earliest recollections of his motner. He replied: ???Am X to be put ou as a regu lar witness to-dav, or only to identify some letters? 1 supposed the latter. I am not feeliug at all well to-day, but shall be much better iu the course of the week"??? ?? Mr. Scoville???I had arranged to examine you to- dav, and there are no 6ther witnesses present. Guitoau???You should have had your witnesses on baud. 1 object to going on the stand when I am iiot feeling well, to be subjected to cross examina tion by counsel for prosecution. I have a good deal to say. 1 want go over the whole bulness care fully aud'scientiticaUy, so to speak, and I want to be iii good talking condition. Mr. Scoville???I shall only ask you some simple questions. (iuiteau???I am willing to answer provided the prosecution will not take advantage ef my pres ence on the stand to force me to state m.v entire defense. Judge Porser, of the prosecution, suggested that the letters put in evidence yesterday be read. After some discussion Judge Cox said that if the witness went on the stand to testify, he must submit to being cross-examined, and if the examination was begun it could not be suspended exceptjby consent of counse on the othc side. Uuiteau, nodding his head approvingly, ???that's the rule judge,as 1 understand it.??? After further discussion Guiteau left the stand, and Mr. Scoville read the letters. All were written by Guiteau to his father and other members of his family. Mr. Scoville proceeded to read the letters passing between Guiteau and his relatives from 1S57 to 1877 With the exception of strong religious feeling shown in those from the Oneida community there was nothing indicative of mental derangement in them. When the reading was finished Mr. Scoville proceeded with the examination of the prisoner, who was at first very reluctant to answer questions, but soon began to talk rapidly aud gave a graphic, and at times amusing, sketch of the incidents in his career. The most of these facts have been already brought out in the testimony taken. He bitterly denounced the Oneida commu nity and reproached his father for having, as he said, driven him iuto this vile and fanatical associa tion,saying he was only kept there by fear of eter nal damnation, if he left the community. Speak ing of his fathei.he said he was a terrible eiank, which he explained as meaning a badly insane man. He gave a rather ludicrous description of bis admission to the bar, and his peculiar mode of forcing business, saying he had made $2,000 by his first vear???s practice. Then he said, upon leav ing Chicago came bad luck. He was incarcqjated in the tombs in New York for a boarding debt, and said it was the unhnppiest experience of his life. He thought he would go crazy there, had he not taken a bath for thirty five days. Upon being released he went to Chicago again. He here detailed his scheme for buying the Inter-Ocean, and explained the failure of the.plan, saying he lmd given valuable ideas which had been taken advantage of by the propri etors of that paper. He gave an account of his lecturing experience, and of the ill reception of the lecture bv the people generally, but insisted that his book iiad forever settled the question of the seoend coming of Christ. After telling of his ex perience while beating his way to the east again, and of several narrow escapes from imprisonment, and other misfortunes, Gurteau said he was tired and the court adjourned. THE MIDNIGHT TRAIN. Across the dull and brooding night A giant flies with demon light, And breath of wreathing smoke: Around him whirls the reeling plain. And with a dash of dim disduiu, He cleaves the sundered rock. In lonely swamps the low wind stirs The belt of block???funeral firs, That murmur to the sky, Till, startled by his mad career, They seem to keep a hush of fear As if a god swept by. Through many a dark, wild heart of heath O???er booming bridges, where belieath A mighty river brawls; By ruin, remnants of the past, By ivies trembling in tiie blast; By singing waterfalls. The slurab'rer on his silent bed Turns to the light his lonely head, Divested of its dream, Long leagues of gloom are hurried o???er. Through tunnel sheaths, with iron roar. And shrill night rending scream. Past huddling huts, past flying farms. High furnace flames, whose crimson arms Are grappling with the night, lie tears along receding lauds. To where the kingly city stands. Wrapt in a robe of light. Here, round each wide and gashing gate, A crowd of eager faces wait, And every smile is known, We thank thee, O, thou Titan train, That in the city once ttgain We clasp our loved, our own. ???All the Year Round. ST. JACOB???S OIL. INSULAR INCIDENTS. James Bradley, an extensive lumber, Louisville, dealer, has failed. Liabilities, $150,000. At a public meeting yesterday at the Hebrew orphan asylum. New York, it was resolved to take measures for the formation of a society to afford aid to Jewish immigrants on their arrival, aud discour age the influx of paupers. Tiie central organization of united trade and labor unions ot New York, Brooklvn and Jersey City passed resolutions to-day expressing their un qualified approval of the manifesto of ???no rent for land" because it was the gift of the Creator to his creatures. Forrest Winemiller, of Poughkeepsie, N. Y and John L. High, of Reading, students at East- mail???s college, Poughkeepsie, came to town Satur day, and after seeing the city retired to a room in the hotel. During the night Wiuemiller???s pistol was discharged aud he was shot, probably, fktally.
