City Council Meeting.— The Mayor, and the following gentlemen, constituting the Po lice Committee, namely, Jamea T. Gardiner, Thomas G. Barrett, Dr. Wm. 8. Jones,- W. H. Goodrich, met at the City Hall yesterday after noon to investigate the charge of cruel treat ment preferred against John Ammonds, in charge of the chain gang, by Wui. Davis, a white man, who was some time since convicted before the Recorder of a violation of the ped dling ordinance, and being unable or unwilling to pay the tine imposed, ($75) was placed upon the chain gang. The evidence disclosed the fact that much trouble was experienced to induce him to dou the convict suit, pd that after laboring a short time, be AmmofK. refused to work ; whereupon Mr. ishraont unless’. threatening him with pun liim up by the thumbs, "ffjed his labor, swung him work. ‘’>i 8 way made The argument for the defense, represc... ed by Mr. Piquet, was, that he was guilty of mutiny and that severe punishment was ne cessary to preserve in proper subordination the rest of the gaug ; that if he had not been compelled to labor the other prisoners might have been rendered useless to the city. The argument of Mr. Barnes, counsel for Da vis, wasthat the Constitution of the United States, article Bth, prescribed that “excessive bail shall not be required nor excessive fines im posed, nor cruel and unusual punishment in flicted,” and that this case disclosed cruel and unusual punishment, as a milder remedy might and should have been used. The Council retired, and, after consultation, acquitted the prisoner of the charges preferred against him by Davis. Parties who ore placed on the chain gang will understand that the object is to make them work, and if they refuse they will be properly punished. Sharp Practice.— The New York Democrat tells the following story, which will doubtless create some interest in Georgia: A lady, it says, came to New York city from Georgia, a few weeks since, on a most commendable mis sion, that of raising money to assist the cause of Southern education. She had progressed finely with her work, but a day or two since j ■vras s<> nnfortun ite as to lose her memorandum WKjgdejjrtitch book contained, among other thiiurLthe names of those persons upou whom the lady had called, and intended to call in furtherance ot iter mission. Imagine her sur prise, while in Brooklyn, yesterday, to ascertain that another party, undoubtedly having found the memorandum book, assuming the lady’s name, and armed with forged letters of intro duction, was engaged also in the laudable work of collecting money, hut which money, so far as can be ascertained, is not very extensively devoted to the cause of Southern education. This is one ot the sharp tricks, by the practice ot which thousands ot people who are in the large cities live, and is a most provoking joke. Southern Life Insurance Company.—We take pleasure iy e dling attention to the circular of the above well known and popular company, represented by Mr. J. 11. Miller, who has issued sixtv policies during this month, amounting to nearly *300,000. This will prove how much thought of this valuable tmd reliable Southern Company is, and we advise all to give Mr. Mil ler a call, if they wish to insure in a good com pany. Accidentally Shot.—We were shocked beyond expression last night, as tnauy of our citizens will be, to learn that our promising young friend, Milo G. Hatch, Esq., was acci dentally shot yesterday evening, while out rid ing, by the discharge of his pistol. We have not, as yet, learned the particulars, but most earnestly hope hiswound maybe enly slight, and that a tew days will see him fully restored. Prof. Bond was prepared to walk his wire yesterday in the presence of an immense crowd of ladies and gentlemen, but after reachiug it found the wind too strong for safety. He said, however, he was willing to make the attempt if the crowd desired it, hut they requested him not to do so, and he came down, promising an exhibition on Monday evening, at 3 o’clock. The Opera —ln consequence of the illness of Frederic! the Opera of 11 Trovotore was not presented last night, but Stradela was given instead. We have only space to say it was well received, and the different parts sustained with spirit. We are pleased to learn that Mr. Grau intends returning here after Lent, and in that event promise him full as well as appreciative audiences. __ Wando Fertilizer.—We take pleasure in directing the attention of our readers to this home made article, manufactured in Charleston, 8. C., from material obtained from the phos phate deposits on Ashley river. Mr. J. A. Ansley, our well-known townsmen, has ac cepted the ageuev for the Wando, and will take pleasure in responding to inquiries, and give prompt attention to all orders. Valuable Real Estate for Sale.—Mr. J. A. Ansley advertises for sale some very valua ble city property, a desirable house and lot in the village of Summerville, and a farm of 109 acres of land on Rae’s Creek. Those wishing to make a safe and profitable investment should examine this property. See the advertisement. New Spring Goods.—Messrs. Mullnrky Bros, are receiving a splendid stock of dry goods, suitable for the Spring season. Their store is •o well known, and their mode and style of conducting business so popular, that we feel it is only necessary to call attention to their ad vertisement. Fine Music.—We are indebted to Mr. D. P. Faulds, No. 70 Main street, Louisville, Ky., for some delightful songs and instrumental pieces of mnsic. This is one of the best magic houses in the South and shonld be well Datronizod. Left Out.—Having matters of more interest to our readers, and the proceedings of the Leg islature yesterday beiog unimportant, we leave them out this morning. Mayor Pro. Tem.—Hon. J. T. Gardiner will act as Mayor pro. tem. during the absence of Mayor Russell. Radical, Meeting at City Hall. —About two hundred negroes aud the following named whites, assembled at th 9 City Hall, last night: Foster Blodgett, VV. R. Davis, J. B. Rodgers, W. C. Dillon, E. Lyons, W. C. Deyle, Coon Gallagher, 8. C.. J. R. W. Johnson, John Walsh, S. 8. Fardue, W. Bassett, 8. C , Thos. McCook, Joshua King, W. J. Liverman, Patrick Dough erty, Jacob Heggs, John Heggs, 8. W. R&dcliff, Wm. Philips, Reuben Elbert, Yirgil Wood, V. Rhoads, J. B. Ramsey, H. 11. Clapp, Jackson Clark, W. H. Stallings, Robert Stallings, C. P. MeCilla, D. M. Farrow, John Fagaj, Charles Evans, G. W. Mood, J. Reynolds, Francis Tay lor, G. A. Sneed, Robert Philpot, Thornton Walters, to express their views on the condi tion of affairs in Georgia. Squire Reynolds was called to the chair, and Chas P. MeCalla appointed Secretary. A committee oi twenty-one, including Bryant, Garland A. Sneed, Lyons, Dillon, Evans and others, with Blodgett as Chairman, was ap pointed to draft resolutions, expressive of the sense of the meeting. In the committee room, Bryant fought Blodgett on the question of the reconstruction of Georgia, saying it was com plete and should not be interfered with by the meeting ; but eighteen out of the twenty-one voted him down and the committee came in with a majority report, which, after asserting that secret and open enemies were endeavoring to injure the Republican cause, declared that the State had not complied with the recon struction laws ; that the Legislature had no authority to turn out the colored members ; that they supported Grant; that there was no protection in Georgia for the colored man before the law, or for his life or property ; that they called upon Congress to interfere ill Geor gia affairs; apply the test oath to all officers, restore the colored members, and Anally wound up by supporting Bullock in biS course, and expressing the utmost confidence in him. Blodgett read the resolutions, and then Bryant offered a minority report, saying that he agreed with the majority report except that he believed that Georgia was reconstructed; that he took the position that the election of Grant was the completion of reconstruction, and any other view uow was a stultiflcatiou. He begged them not to throw him off ; that he had been a good and warm frieud wheu all others were afraid to take their part, and that, right or wrong, he stood by the Republican party ; that it was a part of his bone aud flesh ; he loved it, and loved the nigger, and wanted them to love him still; that the resolutions of the majority ceusured him ; that he was not appointed a delegate, as he heretofore had been. He begged and plead with them not to leave him, but to uo purpose. He was completely blocked, and amid wild cheers, that WUs -tier for Bryant to pi-j~,„ himself all the Rcp-i.i; ( .„Q party ; that he L,a ness here, and should lie now in Atlanta ; Chat he used to be a good Republican, but had fall en from grace, aud was no longer in accord with the party. Brvant, in the meantime, seeing all was lost, slipped away and took the truin tor Atlanta. The resolutions offered by Blodgett were then unanimously adopted, while Bryant’s were not even offered. The following delegates were then appointed to attend the Atlanta convention on the sth of March: Foster Blodgett, E. Tweedy, Wm. White (colored), and S. Beard (colored). Garlaud A. Sneed then offered a resolution, expressive of the thanks of the meeting to Fos ter Blodgett, for Ids able (?) efforts at repre senting the true condition of affairs in Georgia, and assuring him of their earnest support and confidence. White then made a speech, the best one of the entire lot, telling the colored people to be calm, considerate and moderate. G. A. Sneed followed with a few remarks, supporting the Blodgett resolutions, after which the meeting adjourned. Poor Bryant, he has sown the wind, now let him reap the whirlwind. Ho suffered tortures last night, and wns received with a cold shoulder by all. He eudeavnrpd bravely <a» reinstate hifnaatf, hat the tide is against biro, and over he will go. The negroes were very quiet, and we hwo no doubt .would vote as cheerfully that Georgia was as that she was not properly recon structed. Blodgett thinks every act of the Legislature void, especially the election for Senators, and expects Congress to order another, w'hen he will be a candidate. But it is very clear that the Radical party in Georgia is irretrievably sev ered, and their efforts will be futile to accom plish any of their nefarions purposes. The Hanlons will make their appearance in onr city on to-morrow evening, March Ist, and we have no doubt but they will he received with that, welcome to which they are so well entitled. They are assuredly the most wonder ful gymnasts on this continent, and have every where been greeted with euthusiasm. The Savannah" News says of them : “ The interest iu the exhibitions of these brothers appears not only not to flag but to Increase, if we judge by the large audience and the rapturous applause which greeted the numerous feats of skill and strength last night. Alter the Pyramid Chrystola by George Hanlon, the Flying Men of the Air, by Dave Hawley and Thomas Miaco, excited the most wonderment and applause. The Euglish ballads by Mr. and Mrs. Bremen were excellently well rendered, as were the Parlor Gymnasties by Alfred Hanlon and the boys, Victor, Julian and Francis. Mr. James Blamphin, in his exquisite performance upon the harp, won the hearts of all the au dience, and in response to an encore played a number of tunes, concluding with the old airs, 1 Dixie’ and the ‘Girl I Left Behind Me;’ but making more music in them than most the audience believed possible. The entire per formance was good and should be witnessed by every citizen.” The Courts. City Court. The following business was transacted iu this court yesterday : John W. Prince vs. Gustav Stoepel—Settled, and costs paid. Pinney & Johnson vs. Robert J. Bowe and Isaac Levy—Rule vs. Sheriff. Under the deci sion of the Supreme Court, ordered that sheriff pay over the money instauter. James A. Bennett, vs. City Council of Au gusta—Complaiut. Judge Sneed being related to one of the plaintiff’s in one of the cases vs. City Council, did not preside in this case, and, by consent of counsel, W. W. Montgomery was selected to preside. The jury found for the de fendants. James P. Fleming vs. George Cooper—The jury brought in a verdict for plaintiff for #B3 08. James Allen was sworn as a grand juror. Patrick Stensou was made a citizen of the United States. Henry Edmondston vs. Thomas Dwyer—Tro ver to secure a cow. Mistrial. Court adjourned until 9 o’clock Monday morning. Recorder’s Court. Bsfore f/ H. Crump, Recorder. * The following case was tried yesterday be fore the Resordes,: W. C. Mitchell, (white), charged with creat ing a disturbance at a place of public amuse ment. Found guilty and fined #5 or ten days on the chain gang. Magistrate’s Court. Before W. Milo Olin. No business of public importance in this court yesterday. Police Arrests.—The following arrests were made yesterday : Edward Walker, (col.) -Hitching a horse to a tree. Ifoi- Armstrong, (col.)— Charged with steal ing a goat. 8. Allen—Drunk. Mason, (white) —Druuk. A white man— Drank. Prince E. May, (col.)— Breaking a shop win dow. Almost a Fatal Accident.— Master Frank Reaney, son of Mr. Wm. Reaney, residing in Dublin, was dangerously injured yesterday af ternoon, about 3 o’clock, by a fall from a horse. It appears, from what we learn, that Master Frank, and other youths of about his age, have been going to one of <>«>■ livery stables and ex ercising the horses, and that yesterday he was riding one of them with a baiter on in place of. a bridle. The horse ranaway, up Greene street. When near the canal Frank sprang off, alight ing on his forehead, and receiving injuries that rendered him speechless for several hours. About 7 o’clock consciousness had returned, and strong hopes were entertained by his fami ly that he would recover. Personal.— M r. Trevilliek, the working mao’s advocate, arrived in our city yesterday by the Bouth Carolina and took rooms at the Augusta Hotel. He will address the citi zens at the City Hall, tomorrow (Monday) nifpt, si* 7%Vclock.

ATLANTA DEPART®' ' ) Southern Life Insurance Company, > Atlanta, G»., To the Citizens of Georgia, Flotua and the Carolinas ; / We, and Stock|ehlers in the Atlanta rw ft V" \tof the “ Southern Life f n - ! surance invite the at tention or We this DepNXllSjfcnt' viz: Geo reia, lWaRa and the Carolinas, tdf sorae suggestions on the select of general and particular) Cos/ claims ic o *fi- ] deuce a T k centuries, and has, i ts own merits, gradually and steely more and more of public atteu\oDi ntR foonr justly esteemed a necessity of’modern cmWxa- ( tlon. Indeed, the enlightened conviction of the age esteems every man who has the well being of others dependent on his exertions, guilty of gross selfishness and. neglect, who fails to secure for them the protection against want which this humane system offers. Found ed as it is on the law of average of human life, and upon scientific principles and statistics as unvarying as the laws ol nature, it furnishes the most absolutely safe investment and pro tection to the widow and orphan known to the world. Indeed, it is unlike fire and other nsurance in this : that failure cannot overtake a T ile Ac«»ranee Company which uses the tables, except by reason of gross t Hfcetneut, or absolute fraud, t' differs from all oilier kinds of * , Bpl : and a careful consideration of the enable every thinking man to ap pretWßl the assertion of one of the ablest writers on this subject, of the present age, “ that the system of Life lusnrance has been moulded into a sort of perenial providence for the widow and orphan, as pure and cheering as sunrise, and almost as sure ;” and the remark of Professor DeMorgan, that “ nothing in the commercial world approaches, even remotely, to the lamrity of a well established and pru- Life Assurance Company.” W proper to make these sug- general subject ol Life Insur ance. Now we ask your consideration of the claims of this particular Company. It was organized in 1866, by some of the best citizens aud ablest financiers of the country, and has heeu in successful operation since. It has issued policies and paid losses to an extent rarely equalled at its age, in the history of Life Insurance. We have been solicited, and have, in order to found one grand organization for the whole South, consented to join this worthy enterprise, by subscribing aud paying for its capital stock. Founded on a sol'd moneyed basis, with an ample C iDital, its rails. — Wa tp its —the true test Sf a company’s strength—is second to none on this continent. The ratio being nearly 300 to 100. While there are three Departments, they are Departments of the same Company, and each and every Depart ment guarantees the payment of the policies of the Company. One of the prime objects of the organizition is to check, if possible, and as far as practicable, the drain of capital from our impoverished section, and at the same time to furnish to the people as safe ami honestly managed Company as can be found in any section. Have the people ol these Stales any concep tion of the immense sums of money yearly taken from the South for Life Insurance ? By eftlculajjijflj, based on the best statistics which can it is estimated that a sum of not less than Ten to Twelve Millions of Do'Jars ($10,000,000 to $12,000,000) is sent every year from the South for this purpose. We ask the people to consider how rapidly, aud iuto what gigantic proportions every material interest of our section could he developed by the reten tion, and lending at reasonable interest in our midst, of these enormous sums, and the ae. cumulation ofcomponnd interest thereon. The number of Companies doing business in New Y ork has increased from 14 to 41 in eight •;e«rs, Kiotl that in the year 1867, the receipts of those Companies amounted to about Sixty Mil lions of Dollars ($60,000,000,) in lieu of less than Four Millions of Dollars (#4,000,000) in 1859. There are twenty-seven or twenty-eight Com panies now doing business in Georgia. Os these the “ Southern Life"—the Pioneer South ern Company—is, we believe, the only one which retains its fund in the States composing this Department. Not one dollar of the accu mulations of this Department will be sent out of it; but all its funds securely invested in our midst, on first class securities, for the protec tion of policy holders in this Company, and for the development of the material interests of our own people. Our agents iu different sections of these States will furnish all inlormat/on desired, and receive applications for io-Uranee in this Com- A'* John B. ""TtnnnT^wtiljjGa. E. W. Holland, Atlanta, A.

AV ashington. , f (Vashinoton, February 27— Vo ® u - The Reconstruction Committee resolved to make no report regarding Georgia, thus leav ing £v=r Representatives in statu quo. Senate considered the resolution retain -sgts.-portion of the Pacific Railroad bonds in ’Jtfiler to insure first class roads, but was post poned in order to consider Schenck’s bill strengthening the public credit. Gov. Genrv, Judges Anier and Williams all declare McClure’s papers urging Graut to ap point Cnriin forgeries. The Senate passed the suffrage amendment. •Jt now goes to State Legislatures. It confers no right to hold office. The Heralds Cuban special says troops are ordered to take no prisoners in arms, but to shoot them down. The resolution paying the Louisiana contest ants $2,500 each passed. Pending a resolution directing an inquiry as to whether certain relics of George Washing ton were about beiug delivered to General Relo, the Senate took recess. The House is considering appropriations. The Senate is considering the bill to strength en the public credit. Washington, February 27—P. M. The President of the Union Pacific Railroad telegraphs, dated yesterday, the road blocked since the 12th ; will be opened in a week. McClure published a card which discredits the exactness of the reports of his interview with Grant. It is stated that McCulloch and Browning have resigned, to take effect Monday. The Senate wing of the Capitol will be closed, except to holders of tickets, on the fourth. Grant visited the House to day, aud sent for Boutwell, with whom he held a long conversa tion regarding Georgia, Virginia, Mississippi, and Texas. He also conversed with Bingham, and afterwards the members, generally, gather ed round him. Grant’s father and sister have arrived. Revenue receipts for the month, $10,250,000 ; fiscal year, to date, $92,000,000. Geu. Grant opposes unseating the Georgia Representatives, and the postponement of the Georgia matter by the Reconstruction Commit tee is attributable to his Influence. Gen. Young, member of Congress, from Georgia, who has warm persoaal relations with Grant, had an interview with him last night regarding Georgia matters. Gen. Grant said that Congress conld not get around recogniz ing Georgia as a State in the Union, and that he himself was opposed to interfering with her at all. Grant’s visit to Boutwell this morning grew out of this interview. Congressional. Washington, February 27. Senate.— A resolution directing the Presi dent to transmit immediately a copy of the constitutional amendment to each Slate Legis laujre in session. Objection and went over. The hill «t.9. 9 u,., n i Pe th<- public crvdU w«. reported. Mr. Davia proposed an amendment paying coin and rcdeinptiou at their value when issued; that interest be reduced to four and a half per cent., and that the excess of interest at above rata’already paid be applied to the reduction of the principal. Mr Heeson moved to amend the second sec tion so as to authorize the legality in future of coin contracts. Rejected—yeas, 10; nays, 35. Mr. Biyard’s amendment, striking out the section, was lost—yeas. 7; nays, 37. Recess. House—Mr. Bnutwell reported a bill, tech nically amending the bill removing disabilities of July 7, 18(58. Passed. The Louisiana election case was resumed. Blackburn moved an amendment that Simon J ones is entitled to bis seat. Lost. Committee’s resolution that Jones is not en titled passed. The resolution declaring the seat vacant as between Hunt and Menard came up. Con testants were allowed fifteen minutes. A sug gestion that Menard speak from the Clerk’s desk was objected to. Menard said he appeared more to acknowl edge the privilege than to make argument, but would be recreant to the good of his race, whose votes sent him here, did he not vindi cate their rights. He claimed no special privi lege ou account ol his color. Hunt declined to speak. The case ispio gressing. Maynard moved that Menard he sworn in. Pending the contest a squabble ensued, during which, Colfax had occasion to say to Chanler, of New York, “The remarks of the gentle man from New York are not respectful to the chair, nor are they true Chanler replied: “ Very well, sir. I will leave that question to be decided by the re cord.” Upson, from the Election Committee proceed ed to nrgue in favor of the majority resolution, that neither Hunt nor Menard were entitled. Dawes accepted the amendment, but yielded to Chanler for a personal explanation regard ing the difficulty between himself and the Speaker. Kerr- argued in favor of the minority report, that Hunt was entitled. The first vote on the minority report, declaring Hunt elected, was defeated—yeaa, 41; nays, 136. The next one, Paine’s amendment, seating Menard,was defent cd-57 to 130. Dawes now moved the whole subject be laid on the table. Carried without division. Dawes moved that Jones and Menard be al lowed #2,500 each to pay their contest. Kerr moved to include Hum. California. Ban Francisco, February 27.
