Bestow, November 18 — Mies Annie Lyons, a propossssslng vousg woman, was errestol ledsy <n the charge of attempted wholesale poisoning of the family and sarvantaof Charles W- Parker, of this city. It was only by tha active sxertions of physicians that the In tended victims were saved from a horrible death. Miss Lyons was employed as a cook by Parker, and gave satisfaction to her employer, bnt could not agree with the other servants, and on account ol frequent controversies aha was discharged. After several mysterious attacks of sickness la the family, suspicion or ths bread was aroused, and Parker thrust his hand in the flonr barret, and from its contra drew up almost a handful of dear arsenic. It hsafortunately happened that very little use was made of the flonr, but enough was used lo mvi rely sicken ton persona. Th. Lyons wa rns'. protests Ignorance ol the arsenic.

Elkict it visiting Mr. Blaino at hit home hero, atd hit pretence it tho cause of considerable (cseip. The ostensible object of Mr. Elkins’s visit it to confer with Mr. Blame fu relation to disposing of the coal products of the mines belonging lo llie Wist Virginia ltailroad com pany to eastern companies. Both gentlemen are members of tho board of directors of this road. It teems hardly necessary that Mr. Elkins should have taken the trouble to have come away down cast to talk over a matter that has been already anted upon by the di rectors and approved of by Mr. Blaine. The most reasonable supposition it that his errand it more of a political than of a busi ness character. In fact, pelftica waa the staple topio of conversation this evening at the din ner table ea well as afterward, when Mr. Elkins and Ex-Postmaster Manly withdrew w.Ui Mr. Blaine to his coaey library, where they could talk over matters iu greeter priva cy. The prsaidential possibilities were freely dircucsed, sod this affords eufliciont grounds for the hypothesis that the precise mission of the adroit chieftain of Mr, Blaine's strate gic forces at the Chicago convention is in refsrcnce to putting Maine's idol in the raeefor at other presidential nomination. Mr. Eikina finds Mr. Blame in excellent health atd never in better spirits. That both are taking an observation tonight of the political horiton and calculating what the chances are to seenre another nomination for ths "mag- attic statesman" seems altogether too proba ble to be doubted. At least that is tho con viction of the political prophets, who alto beileva that the job will be matured before Mr. Elkina fakes his departure tomorrow. A DXXOCSATIO CAUCUS.

The precession was checrod at sevorat points along the line of iu march. When the long lima entcrol tho tent the large crowd already there rose and cheered Borne one cried out “Goodbyo Tangle dot/' which elicited a general laugh. DB. A. O. HAVOOOD •a the first speaker. Dr. Uaygo)d had an ovation as he came forward. Every man iu Atlanta ought a prohibitionist. The meat precious memories ol h'a life and the deepest feelings of bi« heart caused him to look with deep concern on this struggle. Atlanta is the games!, the most progressive and tho most courageous city in lie new south. It ia a dangerous thing to undervalue the strength of our edvtrssries. The other aide ia strong and large. They are dttormined t> wage war to tho bitter end. They will fight desperately to tbo last hour. Bo astute a man aa cur senior senator, Senator Brown, laid to me last winter iu Washington that the strong est ring in this country is the whisky ring. [Cheers 1 Governor Brown knows the influ ence of tbat. ring. He fought it with all his power as a senator ot the United States. [Cheers.] To break this ring U will require the utiled energies of the people, who know its corruption, and tbo prayers of the people who ecek help in the place of power. We have laws already regulating this traffic. It is forbidden to sell whisky to minora but there arc few barkeepers too good to do it. 1 knew one and ho was too good a man to be in the Imtines. [Laughter.] God forgive the cowardly grand juror* aud the cowardly so licitor*, and tho cowardly judge* who havo failed to bring to justice tho men who have besotted the minors of this atato. [Groat cheering.] I want thia election carried by honest means or t ot at nil. [Cheers.] 1 want an election that tbo worseo can pray over whilo tha man are at the polls. I want a victory that tha God of hosts can indorse. [Cheers.] Don't talk to me about fighting the devil with fire. [Laughter-] It in his native olo- tncut, ana he will whip you with it every time. mr. r. it ntcHAcnsoir was introduced by Mr. Uillyer Mr. Richard* sen raid he had at least two things to be tbnnkful lor. One was thnt ho was to follow a man who had made it necessary to oay vory little more and the other wee that it will easy to speak lor prohibition. Intakes a smart inau to mal e a good rp-ccrh for liquor. He referred to the charge that prohibition would injure tho material welfare of tho city. The majority of the real tax payer* In AL lent* don't bel'.evo that. It is a question of theory and tbo only way to tost it Is by tbo ozperienso of those whero the experiment has been ma<b. All we ask fs a lair statement ot tha evidence. The liquor men cast their eyes over Georgia to find.the places MADE DESOT.ATE by prohibition, and irom avery town they bava referred to has como an instant, in dignant and almost unacinnus respmso irom the peoplo of that place. They say it will injure Atlanta's trade. Nobody over brought triouto to Atlanta. It fought ior erory inch of its progress. R.t on tho aterilu hills oi Georgia it has made them b^autemti with the blossoms of prosperity. [Cheers.] Whisky did not lilt it from its ashes. Whisky did not recreate her dosolation into fairaf beauty. Whisky did tot send tho iron high* waja radiating from this poising coator of lit# or rnuoo them every dsy t tingle beneath the messenger* n/ber enter- prise. [Chetra.] Tho indomitable spirit of its people wrought these wonders and it is here yet nerved ior fresh triumphs.

[Cheers 1 There IsipMA wor f-| patience to dctsil the long blaeiTTehyrd of its crimes, or to fitly portray tbo awful story of how it has crushed tho a wee t /lower* that bloom about tho hearthstones, murdered love nd made a hell of homo. [Ooutinuod cheers.] Tho speech concluded with aa account of how a litilo baud ot aobar aol> riiera. when a great English army waa drunk, saved a city in Indiaand the lira of Eagliih* tuen aud women from an army of insurrection* .is. There is a city in Georgia at tho mercy of tve more rolcntie** than the savage hordes ot Ir.dia. The cry i»r help has arisen to heaven. Where oro the sober men, who will march to the poll* on the 25ib of Norember aud win ibe blocdless victory, wbieh shall redeem At lanta? [Continued choering.] MR A. *. Mt/RPHV. Mr. A. A. Murphy, of UarnesvUle, was riled on by tha crowd and responded in a happy effort, which kept the crowd almost ia a renatant laugh, He said tbat whura one gallon of whisky i* sold in Tiko county now h hundred used to bo sold. Tbo jail in Pika ccunty has been burned up and the people dr-n't want never to build another. They don't n«ed a jail when they have no whisky.

An Actt Prohibition View, Last night a Cosititutiof reporter called on Mr. Jack J.

Mr Spalding sain: ‘ Our < cmb.litre ni you have bean advised through the columns of The CowsTiTtmoir; Is < <>m pored of representative citizens ot Atlanta who ore rutliely dhcouuectcd from tho sale ol liquor.
