THE WEEKLY COKSTITITIGN, ATLANTA, GA., TIES DAY. NOVEMBER 29. 1887. FROM FOREIGN SHORES News from the Sick Bedside of the Crown Prince. PAKNELL AND O’CONNOR SUPHtENAED. ENGLAND. London. November 21.—Mr. Parnoll, in an interview had with him today, during the fly ing visit made by hiip to London, said: “Kesjiecting the general situation, I may say that, in my judgment, a more feeble or inert government neverheid reins in Ireland. They are teaching Irishmen a most disastrous les son by their bungling incapacity; a teaching that law may he successfully defled. For the law, ns recently constructed by the unionist majority in the house of commons, is daily defied, and with impunity, by thousands of of supprassed branches of the league, ami by every nationalist newspaper editor in Ireland. In fact, one of the extraor dinary results of the coercion act, and a firm and resolute government, is that for every of fense against the law committed before the passage of the coercion bill, hundreds are committed now. I leave it to you to whether Ireland’s respect for the imperial parliament’s possibility of her continued gov ernment by the samo agency, or the solidity of the unionists is likely to bo increased, or whether this administrative incapacity does not render much nearer the concession of sm h reasonable |lowers of self-government as will nuike our people law-abiding, prosperous and happy/’ Londox, November 22.—Major Sanderson in a speech at Nottingham today, declared Mr. Gladstone's statement that the murder of < <»n stiible Wheland was a put up case, was an ab solute lie. Mr. Gladstone ho said, was at one end of the chain and Patrick Ford at the other cud. X letter was read from Mr. Bright referring to hi ; proposal to send Irish bills to a grand committee composed of Irish members. In a letter Mr. Bright says: “ I’he rebel party will not accept the proposal, because they arc rebels, and with rebi 1 Irish members in the house of commons, the plan would not be allowed to work. Mr. G|.:d ;t<»nc has a hobby in which the rebel leaders for the time have agreed to join him. IL* is com mitted t<> that hobby and cannot, condescend to consider a plan less pretentious but more reasonable than his. Nothing can be done until Mr. Giadst<»ne.’s bill has been entirely got rid of. He insists upon impossible legisla tion for Ireland to the exclusion of legislation for the whole. The ( anxious to return to power, and they are furious be cause the conservatives are in office, and they blame me and others for keeping them there. They seem blind 1o the fact that Mr. Glad stone's conduct put the conservatives in office. They forget that the electors of Great Britain, by a majority of in arly two to one,condemned Mr. Gladstone’s bills and destroyed his min istry. We cannot allow Mr. Gladstone4o re-, turn to office on his Irish policy. 1 prefer to join hands with Lord Salisbury and his col leagues rat her than with Parnell ami his friends, leaders of the rebellion.” London, November 23. —In a speech at a meeting of the natkfnal union of conservatives at Oxford, today, Lord Salisbury said he saw in the success of the conference the happiest augury for the future. At the evening conference Lord Salisbury said lie would not renew the discussion of the question whetlmr home rule would be estab lished or not. The author of the proposal had withdrawn his measure. It would pass the wit of man to produce a home rule scheme which would be pleasing to both Mr. Ti ■vylan and Michael I *av ill. The coining session of parliament would be devoted more, to measures that would satisfy th© pressing wants of Eng land. A reform of the local government was long needed in England, ami the government hoped to carry a measure that would meet the wants of the country. He did not intend, until there was a manifest change in In land, to propose increased powers of the local government there. Obstructions had been threatened to everything that might be proposed in parlia ment until the demands of the home rulers had been granted. The government was prepared to face obstruction. The present system of procedure was mot enough. Primm reforms were ro'piircd to prevent a wanton waste of public time. lie hoped the efleet of these measures would be the restoration of the char acter and usefulness of Ihr house. The <|U»*s tion of regulation of the liquor traffic, he con tinued, would have the foremost plate in the local govt rnmcnl bill. lie was in favor of liberty in that traffic, as far as was consistent w ith social order. He said he was strongly opposed to church dises tablishment, but admitted that the govern ment was bound to reform the church by re moving \\ hatr\cr < v ils wore] proved to exist. Hr promised a measure for the removal of tithe ( harm s from land. Tne state. <d agricul ture, ho said, was deplorable. Whatever measures of self might obtain, genearl consent would receive the readiest consideration of the government. Referring to the Trafalgar Square troubles, lie said he regarded }ho meeting there as a law less demonstration. They were the nat ural results of Mr. Gladstone’s words. Mr. Gladstone could not preach to an Irish mob to defy the law without having his advice ap plied in England as well. He (Salisbury) was convinced that the country would say with him that those claiming the right of public meeting were not privileged to convert it into the right of making themselves a public nui sance. The government were determined, at all costs, to maintain the supremacy of law. (Uhoers.| He could not understand what it was that excited the s\ inpathy of the English liberals in the case of William O’Brien, who had broken the law and incited others to law lessness. He did not fear that the attacks of liberal leaders on recognized principles of order would confuse the moral sense of the English nation. On the contrary, the substan tial effect would be to convince the public mind in favor of a policy which vindicated law and order throughout the kingdom. [Cheers.] London. Noveinlicr 25. A. letter written by Mr. Balfour is published, in which he refers to the grotesque episode “of Mr. O’Brien’s clothes.” He says .Mr. O'Brien is not treated in Tulhunoro prison, either w ith leniency or severity. Ho has succeeded in sh< Hering himself under a medical opinion that his lungs are delicate and his heart’s action is w <\ik. Mr. Balfour also an vs if Mr. O’Brien refuses to w ear the prison dress force will not bo ap plied to compel him. There is no reason why lie should not fulfill his term in prison, but ho cannot safely be subjected to the usual dis cipline. Penis MoNamarg. n shopkoeiier at Ennis, county Clare, has Deen sentenced to a week's imprisonment for selling copies of United Ire land, cd’ which Mr. O'Brien is editor, and the selling of w hich has been proclaimed. This is (he first instance in which a person has been prosecuted for selling papers. Pi ui.fN, November 23.—The Express says Mr. Erank Hugh O’Donnell, ex-\ ice-president of the home rule confederation, has caused subpuuias to bo issued for Messrs. Parnell and Thomas Power O’Connor, as witnesses in his suit against the London Tinies for fifty thou sand pounds damages for libel in charging him with being connected with the Piueuix park murders. The Express also says Mr. O’Donnell has notified Mr. OConnor to produce the minute Iwks and ledgers of the home rule federation and national league in his possession, particu larly these covering the time spent by Mr. Par nell n Kilmainhani jail. The Parncllitesaro fu rious. Mr. Parnell had three months ago re solved to cross the sea in November in order to ax old U‘ing placed in the xx itnessbox. Warders today entered the cell inTullamoro in which Mr. John M.uvlexille is confined, x hdently stripped him of his clothing and left him entirely naked. Mr. Mandeville still per sists that he xx ill not wear the prison uniform. Mr. 1 hmghty. xx ho was acquitted at Ennis on one chargo under tho crimes act. but con x icted on another, and sentenced to a month’s imprisonment, has been scenuly removed from the jail at Limerick to Tai I a more prison. The action brought by Mrs. Margaret Dil lon. a midwife of Aughrim, in county Galway, against Mr. Balfour, chief secretary for Iro -1 land, has Imm n M't aside with costs. The | plaintiff alleged that Mr. Balfour had caused I to be published m x arious journals a statement that the plaintiff had “refused to attend a | woman I'ccauao she was the xvife of a man 1 who had worked fora iH'veotted person.” On | the part of the defense it was claimed that My. Bal tour had made the statement referred to [ iu the course of debate in the house of com- mens, and that the words had been uttered without malice, and that Mr. Balfour was not responsible for the publication of the statement in the newspapers. GKItMANY, Beuijn. November 23.—The National Zei tung say:;: It is reported in medical circles that Dr. Virchow found no cancerous particles in tlie discharge from the growth in the crown prince’- throat. The portion sent to Dr. Vir chow, however, was much shaken in transit. Dount Itadolinski, chamberlain of the crown prince, writes that the manifold proofs of sympathy whir l; the crown prince lias received from all parts of Germany and from abroad, together with numerous kindly meant recom mendations of remedies to cure his malady, have deeply moved and rejoiced his imperial liightm -. ft is impossible, the chamberlain says, to reply separately to the many letters and telegrams received, and the prince, there fore, desires to give a general expression of his thanks for the sympathy extended to him. A dispatch from Sen Hemo says the crown prince’s voice continues very hoarse. Dr. Jirarnaim takes no part in the" medical treat ment of the patient, which is still intrusted to Dr. Hovcll. Dr. Brainann, however, will re main at San Hemo in order to be ready at any moment to perform a surgical operation in case dangerous inflammatory action renders such a course necessary. Berlin, November 23.—The passion shown by f’rince Bismarck, in his interview with the czar here, was on account of his learning of the receipt by the Ttussian government, of forged letters, purporting to be signed by him self, in regard to the relations between the two governments. It was after the czar bad heard an explanation of the matte r by Prince Bis marck that ho gave him tlie assurances spoken of by the Pesther Lloyd. Pesth, November 25.—The Pesther Lloyd ilenie . that each of the powers in the triple alliance is only bound to assist the ally if two powers attack it. It says an ally is bound, under all circumstances, to assist. The paper also say; that Prince Bismarck informed the czar, at the interview in Berlin last Friday, that the triple alliance was the result of Rus sia’s sullenness and ill will. The reference to the Orleanist conspiracy in connection with the forged letter received by the czar is duo to a desire, to at present avoid recrimination against Russian notables. The forged letter dis closure will principally affect Russians. Oniy secondary details have yet been reported of the interview between the czar and Prince Bismarck. The most important points have not been divulged. I’ahis, November 25.—The Monitcur (Or leanist) referring to the revelations of the Cologne Gazette, declares that the story of the alleged Orleanist conspiracy to discredit Ger many in the eyes of Russia is a bad joke, and could not be taken seriously by any French journal. The monarchists, itsays, have always desired and striven to maintain peace. Perth, November 2G.—The "Pester Lloyd says the interview between Prince Bismarck and tlie czar was a dramatic one. Prince Bismarck was scarcely able to restrain his pas sion. The |czar assured the German chancel lor that ho desired peace and did not intend to attack Germany or to take any part in any coalition her. Prince Bismarck de clared that whosover wished peace must not attack Germany’s allies, lie presented the causus foederis clearly to the czar who admit ted that Prince Bismarck’s views were not new to him, and added that his declarations regarding Germany applied equally to Aus tria. IKANGE. Paris, November 26.—1 tis not certain that M. Grevy will announce his resignation Mon day. In an interview witli a deputy today the president said: "I am master of my day and hour. I must yet see what I have to do and say.” ]’residents of groups of the left, at their con ference on the propo nd plenary meeting to appoint a candidate for presidency, failed to agree. rOSTOFFIt'E REPORT. The Third Assistant Postmaster General's Report. Washington, November 26. The refiort of the third assistant postmaster general for the last fiscal year shows that the total ordinary postal revenue of the year was $48,116,273; revenue from money order business, $712,336, making a total of $48,837,609. Total expendi tures for the year, including actual and esti mated outstanding liabilities, amounted to $53,133,252, showing a deficit in revenue of $1,295,643. In addition to this, there was cer tified to the secretary of the treasury, for credit to Pacific railroad companies, in their account with tho government, being the amount earned by them in carrying the mails, $1,187,- 027, so that the total excess of the ccst of the postal service over its revenues was $5,482,620. The receipts of tlie year were 11.1 per cent greater than those of tho previous year. The increase of expenditures was at a ratio of but tnree-fourths per cent. If these rates should emtinue during the current year, at its close the postal service will be, practically, again at a self-sustaining basis. So heavy an increase in revenue, however, says the report, is not to bo reasonably expected. Tlie estimate is, that receipts will increase at a ratio of nine per cent during the current year, and at a ratio of eight per cent during the next; so that by tho cud of the latter, the department's revenues and expenses will not be far apart. The special delivery system has made considerable advance during the year, figures indicating an increase of probably twenty-one per cent over the previous year. Attention is called to tho sub-agency for the distribution of postal cards and stamped en velopes established during the year at Chicago. This agency lias not only worked well, but it lias saved a very considerable amount to the government. Recommendation is made for two other similar agencies at St. Louis, Mo., and Atlanta, Ga. The number of pieces of matter registered during the year at all postoilices was 12,524,- 421, the fees paid en which amounted to sl,- 034,676. This is an increase of 6.5 per cent over the business of the previous year. As of con venience in connection with tho ad mission of newspapers and periodicals to mails as second-class matter, and in vestigations of inspectors, recommendation is made that in all cases where oaths are required iu tho transaction of postal business, post masters bo authorized to administer them. Three important reconimendations arc also made as to tho manner of collecting postage on second-class matter, and as to abuses which spring from defects in tlie present law. Tlie first of these is that postage on all second-class matter shall be paid by the attachment of ad hesive stamps as is required for all other mail matter, denominations running from one eight of a cent, in the case of single pieces, to anv required amount for bulk matter. The second is that only legitimate news papers ami periodicals bu admitted to tlie sec ond-class rate of postage. In other words, that certain books, which, it is claimed, are in no sense periodicals, except that they profess to bo issued at regular periods such as numerous series. libraries, etc.—be admitted only at the third-class rate. Tho third is that the number of sample copies of second-class matter to be sent out by publishers bo limited. Many periodicals, it is stated, w hich under the law "now gain admit tance ns second-class matter, being enabled by the privilege of mailing sample copies, to de feat the law excluding publications issued for advertising purposes or at a nominal price of subscription.

CURIOUS EARTHQUAKE PHENOMENA?. GEORGIA. George Lewis, a shipping clerk at the ocean ttcamship wbaryes, was run over and mor- , sally injured Friday afternoon at six o'clock, j while walking from the rosin sheds to the I river along tlie railrood track. Dis right thigh , was crushed and his left leg was also broken. I Lewis had been shot in the war, and a little ; lame, and the grade is down w here he was i hurt. He had climbed up the embankment to have easier walking, and the train that went over him, moved down upon him rap idly, while lie was himself going in the same direction. Stimulants were administered to him at once, and he was taken to the city hospital, but no hope of his recovery is enter tained. Ho belongs to one of the old Savan nah families. His age is about 45, and he is unmarried. Monday old man Isaac Payne, of Gilesville, was found dead on the floor of his shanty. He had been unwell some time, and Sunday night a party of friends went to sit up with him. After a while, he begged them, as a personal favor, to leave him alone, and they departed. Coroner Hodnett summoned a jury and held an inquest. The jury returned a verdict of death from natural causes. Mr. Payne was an Englishman, and miserly in his habits. He had amassed a considerable sum of money, but it was placed in bank. He was always reticent concerning liis early his tory. By profession lie was a cabinet maker, and a most excellent one. lie camo here several years ago with his wife, who soon died, leaving the old man alone in the world. Superstitious people got up a rumor that the ghost of his wife was to be seen around the premises, and annoyed tiie old man con siderably. With those whom he knew inti mately he conversed fluently on literary mat ters, and seemed to possess a fino and well trainod intellect. His remains were taken in charge by Dr. J. A. Damorn and others, who telegraphed at once for his brother in lowa, the only known relative he has in tlie world. He was about eighty years of age. s >n, twenty-six years of age, a young man of prom inent. family, attempted to commit suicide this even ing at six o’clock. He had been drinking heavy for a week or ten days, and was i ery low-spirited. He swallowed twenty grains of morphine, and as soon as the fatal dose was taken, repented and sent for his brother, SV. H. Edmonson, who summoned |>hysicians. There is a bare chance that be may southTcarolina. The general assembly of South Carolina con vened in annual session in the state house at noon Tuesday. Both houses opened with the usual formalities, and immediately proceeded to the consideration of business. James Sim ons, of Charleston, is speaker of the house of representatives, and W. L. Maudlin, of Green ville. lieutenant-governor, president of the senate. Governor Richardson’s message shows the state's debt to bo $6,400,000. Four hun dred thousand dollars of this amount becomes duo in July next, to meet which tlie governor recommends that a loan he negotiated for that amount, to be secured by state bonds, similar to South Carolina brown consol bonds, which now rank among the first in the stock ex changes of tlie country. He thinks this loan would be readily taken at 4 or 4J per cent interest. In the house of representatives tonight,the bill to repeal the agricultural lien law was, after a spirited debate, killed by a vote of 67 to .36. bill, the object of which was to dis continue appropriations for tlie support of the state militia, was also rejected by a vote of 61 to 42. A bill to require pe-sons owning or keeping dogs to pay an annual license for tho same, gave rise to a spirited debate, and was finally killed by a vote of 68 to 36, much to tho cha grin of persons engaged in the raising of sheep. A bill (introduced last session by Mr. Miller, colored republican member from Beaufort) to amend the present election law so as to abolish the eight-box system and have only two boxes, was slaughtered by an overwhelming majority. Sir. Miller, however, embraced the opportunity to make a strong political speech in favor of the bill. He declared that the present system was dishonest, that men were holding offices to which they had never been elected, and that tho republicans of tho state had no showing at all and could not have their proper representation while tho law was in force. Hon. Samuel McGowen, of Abbeville, was elected associate justice of the supreme court for the term of six years. In the house, a bill was introduced providing for tho relief of disabled confederate soldiers and sailors and tho widows of others engaged in said service. Tho ways and means committee reported ad versely upon tho bill to establish a state homo for disabled confederate soldiers, and the con sideration thereof was made the special order for next Wednesday. In the senate, tlie bill to establish a college of agriculture and mechanics, and to devolve the duties of the department of agriculture upon its board of directors, was tabled without debate. There is an exodus of people from Oconee and Anderson counties, to Texas. Last week a special through car, containing sixty or seventy souls, left Westmiusterfor Jefferson, Tex. Another similar car leaves tonight, load ed with emigrants who are mainly from Ander son county. There are still others to follow, and if the thing continues many months at the present rate, the population of these counties will be materially reduced. Frequent conversations with the emigrants develop no special reasons for the exodus fur ther than a general desire to better their for tunes. Several bad crop years in succession have caused dissatisfaction and depression among the farmers, and this season having brought in more money than usual, many are using their surplus cash to roach a more favor able country. An extraordinary occurrence is reported from Summerton, Clarendon county. A colored girl, seventeen years of age, who had been ill several days, died last Wednesday. Tho body was properly prepared and dressed for burial, and placed in a coffin, the darkies of the neighborhood, holding their customary noisy "wake” over the corpse all through Wednesday night. Tho funeral services were held in the colored church Thursday after noon, and the body was to be interred in a graveyard about two miles away. When the cortege had reached a point within 500 yards of tlie cemetery the pallbearers were startled by a crying noise somewhat resembling the mewing of a cat, ap parently emanating from the coffin. The pro cession was halted, and after considerable dis cussion it was resolved that the coffin should be opened. Upon removing the lid it was found, to the great consternation of the funeral party, that the woman was alive, but unconscious, and that a new born babe shared with her the narrow bod. Several of the pall-bearers and mourners were terror-stricken and tied. Those who remained however ministered to the wants of tlie dead woman and her infant, and in a short time both were carried to a neighboring house where they received kindly and necessary attention. At last accounts the mother was doing well, there being every indi cation of her complete recovery, whilst the in fant is hearty and robust and is thriving as well as any pickaninny bom under ordinary condi tions and circumstances. Some curious earthquake phenomena have just been discovered iu an isolated section be tween Summerville and t'harlcston, which boars terrible evidences of being eno of tho three foci of the great slmck of August, 1886. The ground for miles is literally overturned by the efforts of tho terrific forces to escape [ from the depths of the earth’s bosom. In > consequence there are to l>c seen many deep I pits, on the margin of which have been thrown up pure white sand, such as is seen only on the seashore. Ou tho white sand | thus upheaved has sprung up a dense growth of sea plants, such as is found on tlie tops of tho white sand hills created by the wind I currents on tho soa islands of this coast. It is I evident that these seeds, from which these ! plaifts have sprung, have been ejected from I great depths, where they have doubtless beep buried many centuries wit lout losing their germinating powers. This.phenomena is well worthy of investigation by coutouical experts and scientific seismologists. TENNESSEE. Before adjournment of the North Alabama conference of the Souibern Methodis' church, at Tuscaloosa, Tuesday night, a resolution w as adopted rc pie-tiiig Pr. D. C, Kelley, one of the most eminent Methodist divine’s in Amer ica, and missionary treasurer of the general conference, to resign his official position on account of his utterances in reference to the Emma Ablxitt episode at Nash ville.

E. church, south, met in the office of the secretary of the board at the publishing house, at 10 o’clock this morning, in response to a call issued No vember 9th. The proceedings of the meetings of local members of the board relative to the treasurer, Rev. Dr. D. C. Kelly, and his utter ances regarding the Emma Abbott episode at McKendrie church, were harmonious, and af ter some discussion the following paper was presented by Dr. Kelly and adopted: To members of the board of missions: Having been informed by brethern, whom I trust, that my snppossod attitude towards theaters Is in the way of my usefuluessjas missionary treasurer of the Methodist Episcopal church, south, and that my published card is not sufficiently explicit on this subject. I now define my position further. I am opposed to any attendance at theaters by memliers of our church, and uphold ouf ministers in the cor rection of this evil, by pubUc and private ad monition, and by a patient and kind, but firm administration of discipline. I regret and withdraw my articles in the American, in so far os they may be construed to be au indorsement of interruption of public worship on October 9, at McKendrie church. I consider myself to have said heretofore all contained in this paper, but as it is thought that this .statement is clearer and more e isily understood than tlie statement of the card, I gladly write and sign this paper. L>. C. Kelly. ALABAMA. The quiet little village of Avondale, a suburb Birmingham, has a first class sensation today. Three months ago a handsome young man of pleasant address located in the village. He gave his name as Charles Winningham, and claimed Texas as his home. He made many friends and in a brief time won the hand and heart of the village belle, Miss Ellen Dobbs. They were married October 24th., and in a few weeks the happy bridegooom began receiv ing long letters from Texas, which were signed “your loving wife.” Ono of the letters fell into the hands of the male relatives of the Avondale bride, who very promptly investi gated the matter. They soon learned that the charming Charles Winningham was Robert Willingham, who lias two wives in Georgia and one in Texas, in addition to Mrs. Willingham number four. Two years ago Willingham was arrested in Atlanta for bigamy, and released on $-4,000 bond, pending trial. He jumped his bond and went to Texas, where ho soon married again. In a short time he left wife number three, and came to Avon dale and married Miss Dobbs. He was arrested this afternoon on a charge of bigamy, and will be tried tomorrow, if he escapes the venge ance of his last wife’s friends and relatives, who are terribly excited over the astounding developments.
