Chronicle & Sentinel AUGUSTA, OA. WkDSkSIHT MOBBING. XiKCU 9. Georgia in the House. Our ad ■/ices from Washington are such as to leave but littlo hope for the defeat of Butler’s iniquitous Georgia bill, giriog Bullock aod his faction a !ea-i of power until 1872. It wiil pass the House beyOnd a doubt; but there are strong grounds for believing that a stubborn light will be made in the Senate, as it is given out that the .Judiciary Committee is almost an unit in opposition to Butler’s bill in its present shape. a A Soble Chart'j. We regret to learn that the Orphan Home building commenced some time since, now lags in in its construction for the want of a few thousand dollars to secure its completion. This a noble chari ty, and we feel quite sure that our citizens need only to be; informed ol the fact that aid is needed to secure their approval and support. The Home w. 11 bo under the control of the Sisters of Charity, whose devotion to works of charity, and especially their ten <ler motherly care of the destitute orphans ia our midst, have long been known to our people, and we trust will now receive a j substantial recognition. The building itself, when completed, will bo ao ornament to that part of the city, and when we remember t' e noble uses to which it will be devoted, we feel quite sure that a geoeral and generous aid will be extended towards its completion. Memorial of Howell Cobb. Mr. A. M. Scudder, of Athens, has laid on our table a copy of the above work—a worthy tribute to the memory of a noble i Georgian. Our readers need not be told of Howell Cobb. His name is a household word in our State. This little volume is a labor of love, pre pared by Rev. 8. Boykin, of .VI aeon, and contains a biographical sketch of its sub ject—the proceedings of numerous public bodies on the occasion of his death, the addresses of eminent divines at his funeral servicos, letters from well-known gentle men, and other interesting matter. It' is beautifully gotten up, and is an ornamental volume. No one who knows the illustrious sub ject, (and win in Georgia did not know him ?) can fail to be deeply interested in this volume, and in after years it will r< main a monument and memorial to call back recollections of the better days of the republic, and to show forth the life of a patriot and statesman such as we see small hopes of looking on again. Every Georgian who wishes to preserve a memento of one of Georgia’s greatest sons would do well to place this volume on his sholves. It can bo had by applying to Mr. Rcudder iri Athens.

Tho currency interest debt Ims increased $25,000. The debt bearing no interest has decreased $0,123,093, while the matured debt outstanding is $79,700 less than last month. Tho net deoreaso in the debt is thus $0,177,343 54. The coin iu tho Treasury has increased $800,009 20, and the currency $1,589,478 27. Taking in here the $3,000,000 bonds purchased, we have a uct iucreasc of $2,389,487 47 in the Treasury assets, and a decrease of $11,500,831 01 in the debt, less assets in the Treasury. According to tho Secre tary’s mode of statement ignoring the Pacific Railroad subsidy bonds and com bining accrued interest everywhere with principal, the debt loss assets in the Trea sury is $2,438,328,477 17, a diminution of $0,488,811 75 during tho month, and $87,134,782 84 since March Ist. Tho coined interest accrued, according to the Secretary’s statement, $38,708,242 84 against $32,847,391 82 last, month. He states the currency interest at $525,550 against $717,950 last month. The interest due on the matured debt is $524,048 37 ; last month it was $533,608 88. The in terest on tho Pacific Railroad subsidy bonds, of which he makes no aeoouut in his totals, is $637,541 20 ; a month ago it was $315,24 00. The Pacific Railroad companies have, during the month, repaid by transportation $70,773 81 of the in terest already paid by tho United States on these bouds, making a total repayment of $1,994,074 61, leaving still to be refunded $4,887,590 35. Democratic Platform. The Pittsburg Post, the leading Demo cratic newspaper in Western Pennsylvania, believing that the victory of the party de pends upon persistence and a sound policy, makes the following suggestions as to the future course ol the Democracy in relation to the issues presented : 1. To ignore dead issues, but never abate a single principle. 2. A firm reliance in the Constitution, and a restoration of its vital functions where they have been impaired by Radioal legislation. 3. Equal taxation ; the strictest mainte nance of the public faith ; a common cur rency for the whole people, founded upon a sound and reliable basis; placing the public debt upon the basis demanded by justice and sound financial policy; the creation of a public revenue founded upon ' just principles, and the abolition of present j iniquitous and oppressive revenue laws. 4. The protection of industry against j the oppressions oi moneyed monopoly. 5. A reduction of office holders, and a j consequent cessation of the present ex- j travagant expenditures of the general, ; as well as State and municipal govern nients. 6. A reduction of taxes, and adequate I legislation to compel the holders of the i public indebtedness to bear their proper 1 share of the burdens of sustaining the j Government. 7. A just acd equitable system of rep- ; resentation in Congress, by which the | New England States shall not be allowed j a disproportionate number of Represents- j tives and Senators, and the West shall re- , oeive its just proportion. 8. Tte restoration of s'l .the States to an equal foot in in the Union, and the abrogation of a.i test oaths and disfran chising enactments, either by Congresa or so-called State Legislatures or Conven tions. A free government, maintained and perpetuated by free ballot. 9. A strict definition, aoeording to the letter and spirit of the Constitution, of the powers, rights and duties of each of the three co-ordinate branches of the Govern ment, confining each within its proper sphere, and repressing each in its aggres sions upon the other. The Fbst is of the opinion Shat on such a line of policy as is here indented there would be recruits enougfi from the liberal aod conservative wing of the Repnblican party to insure a majority in the lower House of the text Congress, and ultimate ly to accomplish the overthrow of the Radical party. I |A wealthy Northern company has pur chased a tract of land at Sandy Point, op posite the Norfolk (Va.) Navy-yard, and intend eri oting upon it extensive mills for the manufacture of yellow pine lumber /br the Northern markets. I Tin: Cuban Chief— The Savannah . Republican says that General "Quesada, j the leader of the Cuban army, airived io j that city yesterday morning from St. Augustine by the 10:50 Gulf train, and stopped at the Pulaski House. He de parted Saturday eveniag for Washing too 1 with hit staff officers, six in number. The i General is on business connected with the cause in which ho is engaged. He repre sents the Cubans as 20,000 strong, but neediog arms, which he will doubtless ihtain and forward to them. General Quesada is in excellent health, and spoke hopefully of the issue of the struggle in | Cuba. He says the late engagements have I all resulted advantageously to the patriots, who will conquer their independence whether aided or not." Genera! Qaesada and his staff passed through Augusta yes terday morning on their way to the National Capitol. Fire m Macon. — A destructive fire oc curred io Macon on Friday night last. We get the following particulars of the con- j flagration from the Telegraph k Messenger : The one Hory brick store house belong ing to Bozeman k Dickinson, on Third street, corner of the alley and adjoining Collins A Son’s warehouse, was totally destroyed last evening between 7 and 8 o’clock. The buildiog was occupied by Mr. E. Klkin, dry goods and clothing mer o ant, aod by the firm of Newton, Lipford (feCo., family grocers, who had recently bought out Mr. Carey W. Cox. Mr. El kin, who is now in New lost his entire stock of goods, with tho exceptioo of a few armsful his olerks and others carried out id ibe few brief moments it was possible to enter the burning building. His loss is about SB,OOO, as his stock was low aod his spring goods had not yet ar rived. No insurance. Messrs. Newton, Lipford & Cos., also lost their satire stock with the exception of a cask of bacon, a few sacks of flour, etc. Their stock was also very light and they will not lose over $3,000- No in surance. The building was insured, we under stand, for $5,000, but we did not learn in what company. The fire originated in the grocery store awhile after dark from a barrel of Aurora oil. Mr. Newton had gone to the barrel to draw some of the oil, attended by a ne gro who was holding a candle or lamp for binu, and while the oil was being drawn it took firs from the light in the negro’s hand, as he was holding it down near the stream. In a twinkling the barrel ex ploded and the whole inside of the store was in flames. There was near the barrel of oil a lot of whiskey which also imme diately took fire, and burned with great rapidity and intensity, so much so that it was impossible to save any of the stock. The building formed the North-east corner of the warehouse, and it was only by the noble and gallant efforts of our fire men that the warehouse, with its 3,000 or 4,000 bales of cotton, was not consumed. The roof of the warehouse adjoining the burning building repeatedly caught fire, but the cotton in that part of the yard was quickly rolled away, and not a bale destroyed; and after getting the cotton out of the way, the pipemea had a fair field to extinguish the fire as it broke through the eave of the warehouse. New York Clothing House.—We invite attention to the advertisement of Messrs. Devlin k Cos., of New York, which will be found in this morning’s paper. This is an old established and successful cloth ing house, and is prepared to offer peculiar inducements to purchasers. They claim to lead New York in the line of ready made clothing, whioh fact speaks much in their favor. Parties visiting New Yorx will do well to give them a call. They give particular attention to custom work and their stock of ready-made clothing and furnishing goods is at all times complete. The Burdett Combination Organ.— We have made a careful examination of this most remarkable instrument, and fully endorse the various and many high encomiums we havo read and heard of it. We were particularly struck with the orchestral qualifications of the organ, the tones being capable of variation from the sweet sound of the violin, passing through flute, clarionet, French horn and violin cello, to the deep full tones of the bass viol. The voioeing cf the different stopß is surpassingly elegant. There is nothing in tho tones of a discordant or jarring nature, but to tho oontrary, are round and full, and very gratifying to the ear. Ihe facility of notion and oontrol are gratifying, and in the hands of an experienced performer can be made to express every phase of character in music. We unhesitatingly pronounoed it superior to any reed instru ment we havo ever heard, and wish for it the triumphant success it deserves. Particulars of be Loss of the Beaver Guides City. San Francisco, March 2.—The Gelden City left this port on the llth of February for Panama, with 400 passengers for New York, and a valuable oargo, including a oargo of teas received by the China steam er, and a large amount>of treasure. On the morning of the 22d, she went ashore near Point Lazare, Lower California, about fifteen miles from the Bay of Santa Maria. The passengers, baggage and treasure wero landed with but little difficulty, the sea being smooth, hut the locality is bar ren and far from human habitations. A party was sent immediately to Point La zaro to erect a signal aod keep a lookout (or the steamship Colorado, about due from Panama. She was signalled about noon on the 24th, but it was impossible for the steamor to reoeivo the sufferers on board at the scene of the disaster, owing to the heavy surf at that point, and they were compelled to walk to Santa Maria bay over ao entirely barren waste, enduring great distress from hunger and thirst. Several of the passengers were lost in the sand hills and chaparrel bushes, and had to be abandoned by the steamer. Only a small quantity of provisions and water was saved from the wreck, and it was for tunate that tho Colorado arrived sj soon, otherwise intense suffering must have re suited. When the wreck commenocd breaking up and the cargo drifted ashore, some casks containing liquor were broken open by the passengers, and drunkenness and disorder ensued. Fearing bloodshed would be the result, a strong party of pas sengers organized to destroy tho liquor as fast as it came ashore. The passengers had no confidence in Captain Comstock, and paid no attention to his orders. 'They held an indignation meeting on board the Colorado, and passed resolutions that, in their opinion, the wreck was due to the in capability or gross carelessness of the com manding officer, and that much unneces sary suffering on shore was to be traced to the same source. The passengers, with but few exceptions, reached here oo last evening- The baggage and the treasure were left on tho beach, under a proper guard. The Destruction or the Oneida. London, March I.— Later and more favorable dispatohes tu»v« been received from the British authorities at Yokohama in relation to the collision between the Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company's steamer Bombay and the United States oorvette Oneida. The de tails, however, are still meagre., Fifty six of the offers and crew of the Oneida were subsequently picket! up by the small boats of the Bombay, and it was thought that others missing at the last accounts would ultimately prove to have escaped death. The names of the saved or lost have not been received, nor is it known precisely how many persons were on board the" ill {fated vessel at the time of the calamity. San Francisco, March 1, 1869. —The ship Benefaotress arrived from Yo kohama, Japan, to day. She brings full particular* of the loss of the United States steamer Oneida, which left Yokohama on the 23d of January, home'card bound The steamer left her anchorage about 5 P. ’M. On passing out of the harbor her fire i were banked and steam blown off. While I the officers were at dinner about seven o’clock, the lookout man shouted "steamer lights ahead," and a midshipman gave the order to port helm. Everything seemed quiet on board the other steamer, which leads to the b: lief that sh* had not ob served the Oneida, although the latter’s lights were burning brightly. The steamer, which proved to be the Bombay, of the Peninsular and Oriental line, came right on and struok the Oneida abaft the star board gangway, about half-way between the main and mitten rigging A hole was cut, through which tho whole interior of the ship was visible. The binnacle, wheel and rudder were carried away, and two j m en standing at the wheel were instantly killed. The Bombay did not stop after crushing through the Oceida, though the guns of the latter, which hap pened to be loaded, were almost instantly fired to attrsoi her attention. Only one boat (the itieboat) was available, the others having been crushed. It was manned by i Dr. Stoddart (Suddards?), the boatswain and fifteen of the crew. Five guns were fired, but before the sixth could be dis charged the Oneida sunk, within ten min utes after she was struok. None of those saved saw a man or heard a voice cn board tha Bombay. They report that when it became evident (Eat there was no hope of caving the ship the officer* gathered around j Captain Williams, and he was heard to ! say if the ship went down he would go ' with her. The lifeboat was obliged to j leave the sinking ship to avoid being I swamped- Alter pulling about for a while, the crew of the lifeboat, seeing none of the , crew floating of al! the 160 who went down, unwillingly bent their boat’s head to land ward, about five miles distant. On land ■ ing the natives kindly treated them, and they obtained the assistance of a guide and ; started to walk to Yokohama, which they reached at daylight the next morning. The Bombay was immediately ordered to the scene of the Wreck, and succeeded io saving thirty nine men, who had cot into a cutter, which floated when the ship weDt down. Several other vessels, one with Minister Delong on board, proceeded to the scene of the disaster during the day, bat no more lives were saved. The Japan ese government sent boats and apparatus to search for the wreck, and, if necessary, to buoy the spot. The passengers on board the Bombay were quite surprised when they heard of the calamity that had befallen the vessel they had struck, but declare they neither heard any request from the Ooeida to stay by them nor min ute-guns fired. A naval court has been | demanded by the captain of the Bombay. The officers and men of the Oneida num bered 170, only 56 of whom, including Dr. Suddaida and two junior officers, survive j the disaster. The foliowiog is a list of tho saved : Isaac J Yates, master; James Suddards, surgeon; Nicholas Anderson, acting boats wain; W W Crowninshield, captain’s clerk; Wm. Anderson, Thomas Bigby, i Wiliiam A Bennett, Henry Bennett, Michael Boyle, William Britney. Cnarles Browo, Pat. Cunningham, F J Connolly, Robert F Dyer, Henry Gerney, John GreeD, James Houston, Wm.

Southern Securities in New York. —v’he Herald, of Sunday, the 27th, in its Financial Review, says ; In the market for the Southern State bonds there was considerable activity, and with the exception of the Tennessees prices were firmer. The new Tennessees declined to, 46f on the telegrams from Nashville that the bill to reduce the rate of taxation had passed, while on the street reports prevailed that there had been "ir regularities” in the issue of the bonds. The North Caroliuas were firm and higher on the proposition to have the State sell out her interest in the railroads, aod thus reduce her debt about one half. It was also said that the Comptroller had called on all the railroad companies to return the special tax bonds not yet disposed of by them. The latest street prices were: Tennessee ex-ooupon 55a56 ; do now 46$a 46J ; do five per oent, 41a43 ; Virginia, ex-coupon, 62Ja62i : do new, 64Ja55; do registered stock, 51a52 ; do registered, 1866, 60a62 ; do do 1867, 56a57; Georgia sixes, 82a83; do sevens, 92Ja93 ; do do interest payable in Georgia, 87a90; North Carolina, ex coupon, 46a494 ; do 25a26 ; do special tax, 23Ja24 ; Missouri sixes 93£a94 ; do Hannibal and Bt.

Smash Up on the Southwestern Railroad.— From the Macon Telegraph & Messenger we learn that an accident of rather huge dimensions occurred Wednes day morning about six o’clock, on the Southwestern Railroad, in tbe Tobesofkee swamp, some four or five miles south of that city, in which no less than three freight trains were invo'ved and a number of oars literally demolished. It appears that the Columbus freight train, the first that leaves Maoon in tho morning on this road, ran off the track when about four miles from the oity, caused either by a de fective rail or rotten stringer, and after running some distance on the cross ties and road bed, the engine and several of tho cars upset, leaving five or six cars standing on the road. In a few minutes after this train left tho freight depot, the Eufaula freight train started out, and, knowing nothing of the acoident that had occurred to the Columbus train, it ran full drive into the cars left standing on the ■toad, bursting them wide open and smash ing them to flinders- So heio were two trains off the track and a number of cars demolished. Aod, as if to cap the climax on all the r ilroad smash-ups that have occurred in Georgia lor the last deeade, tho Albany train lollowed close in the wake of the Eufaula train, and on reaching the point where the first train flew the track, it, too, went off, and about half of it upset. So, here were three heavy freighted trains all off the track at the same point, a num ber of cars knocked into a cocked hat, freight scattered and bursted, and, strange to say, nobody hurt. [Correspondence of the New York Word.] M’CLKLUN. A Very Axcakward and Altogether An noying Demonstration at Mrs. Grant's Reception. Washington, Feb. 22.—Mrs. Grant held another of her afteruoon receptions to day from 2to 4 o’clock. It was by far the largest and most brilliant of any given thus tar this season. It was also io away highly sensational ; for, in.tead of ODe, the public rsally attended two receptions, of which the more unexpected was per haps the mor* welcome and sig.iifiaant. General and Mrs. McClellan held this lat ter, and that not only within the halls of the Presidential mansion, but in the famous Blue Room itself, with Mrs. Grant and a gorgeously uttired retinue standing dcM tnd witnesses of the scene from be ginning to end. It happened in thiswise. The reception was at its height. The • whole suite of gofgeousiy furnished rooms was crowded with people. The living tide was surging and tossing with old-limed restlessness through the channels marked out by the four rooms and the long corridor, thrown open on occasions of ceremony like this for the last score of years or more. Many had come aod bowed at the shrine of Presiden tial greatness, nodded promiscuous greet ings among the crowd, and squeezed away through the files of incomers, and had gone. Othors were left, however, to fill their plaoes. Mr. the President had in late from alteudltg a rasfifunatile wedding and was at his post by the side of Mrs. the President. Tbe oountless Dents were übiquitous—a power hence happy. The affair was culminating. A carriage drawn by two white horses drove up to the door. From it descended a pale, delicate-looking woman, leaning on tho arm of a handsome, military-looking man. They slowly entered the outer door and passed into the vestibule. Somehow a passage opened for them where others found only an impossible barrier. People looked, and those in front whispered hurriedly to those behind. The moment they had passed, the open space fi led up as if by magic, and there was a violent pushing to the front. In a little while they had passed through the crowd and were exchanging saluta tions with the Presidential party. Then began a scene, one iong to be re membered ; the presect incumbents of the White House will never forget if. People forgot them, or if they djd re member them, they didn’t care to show it. Someone said: "There is the man who ought to have been President,” and the sentiment spread like wildfire. Id less time than it takes to tell it, the scene of the reception was shifted and the aeteis had changed places- General aDd Mrs. Mcflellan were for the time being the President and his wife; and General and Mrs. Grant “outsiders” —nobody. The real President grinned apd grimaced, and, as is'his habit when in social troubles, plucked at his beard. It was comical to watch the load of chagrin and annoyance on his foee ** ha in turn watched the seene at his elbow; but what could he do ? The sitoat’on was desperate beyond hope, and until his unwitting rival had ; quitted the field of his triumph, he stood there in blank despair. Relief oame at last, however; bat not until the reception had come to an end. As General McClellan quitted the room, j thoroughly worn out with the terrible hand-shaking he had undergone, Mrs. ■ Secretary Fish came in—the most magoifi t eeptiy dressed woman who has trod the j White Housefioor for ten years. 1 The military authorities at Indianola, Texas, are now confi eating all beef cattle driven to that point where bills of sole from tho former owners oaDnat be pro duced. Vindication of the Memory of ft Dead Gentleman. Ihe editor of the Radical organ of Montgomery, Ala., having interlarded his eulogy on Burlingame, with an assault on the memory of Preston S. Brooks, General Clanton retorts as follows : To the Editor of the Mail • The State Journal of yesterday repub lishes from the New York Tribune a bio- I graphical sketch es the late Adsoo Bur liogame, in which disparaging reference is ; made to the caning of Sumner by Brooks io the Senate Chamber at Washington— applying to the latter the epithets "bully,” i "poltroon,” etc. Where that gallant spirit is personally known, living or dead, he needs do de fense. I was one of those who disap proved of the place and weapon which he selected to administer a merited castiga tioD to the physical giant from Massachu setts for his iosulting abuse of the ladies of the South. The street and a cowhide , would have been more appropriate. It was my good fortune to be born with in a few miies of the birth-plaoe of Preston Brooks, and to have been well acquainted with his personal history. His grandfather was a revolutionary soldier ; his father a model citizen and gentleman. When a young man he accepted a challenge from Hon. Lonis Wigfall. He did not, like Burlingame, select the Clifton House, I Canada, as the place of meeting; but a little island in the S ivannah river, only ten or twelve miles distant from his place of residence. In that combat both parties were wounded. V? hen the State of South Carolina was called on for volunteers tor the Mexican war, Preston Brooks was one of the first to respond, and commanded a company in the gallant Palmetto Regi ment, ueder his materoal uncle. Colonel Butler, who fell at Cherubusco leading a charge upon the enemy’s breastworks. An incident which occurred just outside the. walls of the city of Mexico in May, 1847, will illustrate the impetuous charac ter of our hero. Beiog officer of the guard he found it necessary to punish a couple of delinquent sentinels belonging to a North ern regiment, which was encamped in a convent between the “guard quarters” aDd the Palmetto regiment. Capt. B. be ing relieved and these fellows released from confinement, as he passed the con vent, they had preceded him, and with a large number of others, had taken position on top of the building and behind the parapet wall, and as he passed, attempted to pelt him with “rotten eggs.” He halt ed when the first egg was thrown, deliber ately drew his pistol, popped a cap at the head of the first|man who threw, and draw ing a second all heads had disappeared. H the vandals who burnt Columbia did not steal or destroy the “Cast monument,” erected by the Legislature of South Caro lina to tho surviv' rs of that regiment, the name of Preston Brooks may be found in scribed in letters of iron on that roll of fame. The assertion that Burlingame ever in tended fighting Brooks, is ridiculous. If he had, he would have crossed the Po tomac to a spot near at hand, where brave men from every sectio»,|without molesta tion from tho civil authorities, had fought and fell. He preferred being followed a thousand miles through the Northern States, where Radical mobs, ho knew full well, would take good care of his gallant adversary. It was regarded at the time, by all fair-minded men from everywhere, as a cowardly subterfuge, on Burlingame’s part. 'I he editor of the State Journal, who re-publishes this slanderous article, knew that there was not one word of truth in it so far as Preston Brooks was con cerned. Until very recently bought up, he boasted that dthough borp in New 1 ork, he had not one drop of Yankee blood in h ; s veins ; that he was a Calhoun Democrat, aod served four years iu the Confederate army.

SPECIAL TELEGRAPHIC CORRESPONDENCE OF THE CHRONICLE & SENTINEL. Washington, March 3, P. M. A prominent member of the Senate Ju dioiary Committee said to-day that al though the Senatorial question was not touched in the report on Georgia present ed yesterday, yet the lsgioal conclusion to be drawn from it is that Hill and Miller are the legally elected Senators. Another member of the Committee stated to day that tho Georgia .Senatorial question will not be decided for two weeks. Butler attempted to get the Georgia bill before the House to day but failed. He said that the Fifteenth Amendment was awaiting action on the Georgia bill, and he should present it at an early day as possible. Wa8IIIN«T 'n, March 4, p. m. The Georgia Bill was up in tho House. Butler spoke in tho interest of Bullock. He considered tho present State govern ment provisional and that theofficial terms should commence with the admission of the State. He said that by a singular oversight the Constitution of Georgia con tained a provision eoabling the J egislatnre to hold perpetual lease of power. To remedy this he introduced an amendment, not by direction ot the Reconstruction Committee, but with the concurrence of some of the members, that no election takw place until 1872; but thereafter no Legis lature should have power to perpetuate itself. In answer to a question of Farnsworth, concerning the seating of members, Butler said he would leave the House to deter mine. He would be willing to seat no member until anew election. That was a question for the House. He did not think the Senate would interfere. Farnsworth said we got into a muddle with reconstruction legislation, and the sooner we finish it the better, iie declared that the State complied with all the re quirements of the reconstruction laws, and opposes on strong groanas the pro posed extension of official terms. To-morrow will be devoted exclusively to debate on the Georgia question. But ler will move the j reviou* question Mon day at the expiration of the morning hour. Bullock, Clift and Prince were on the floor of the House. Bullock and Butler retired to the cloak room when the latter concluded his speech. Washington, Maroh 5, P M. Farnsworth, Beck, Bird and Kerr spoke to-day in the House against the passage of Butler’s Georgia bill. Lawrence spoke in favor of it There were but few members present during the debate, and but little interest was manifested. The best information to-day warrants the conclusion that the bill as presented will pass the House, but will possibly be defeated in the Senate, ai it is known that the members of the Senate Judiciary Com mittee are almost unanimously opposed to the bill. ff.C.

The next day telegrams from America reported receipts for tbe week at ail the ports at 96,000 to 100,000 bales ; this was about what had been previously anticipated, and the market opened with a good general demand, and in anticipation of decreased receipts this week, prices ruled quite firm. Since Monday last, 14th instant, the daily tel 'grams from America have indicated even larger receipts this than last week, and notwithstanding very favorable reporte ; from Manchester this has occasioned a dull, dragging market, and prices for Cot t id, both od the spot and to arrive, have ruled in favor of buyer*. Toxiay the aales j are animated at 10,500 bale*, price* eloj- ing at our quotations, as given above. The Sales of thejweek, ending last even ing, sum up 61,610 bales, of which 8,190 on speculation, 6,660 declared for export, leaving 46,760 to the trade. The Import during the week has, owing to unfavorable winds, been very small, viz. 15,575 tales, and our Stock is now but 38,650 bales | larger than at this date last year. In Cotton to arrive, the business of the week has on a more moderate scale, and prices, bath for American and Sums, have deebned about sn Id. The following transactions have been reported to-day: J American, basis of middling, from any i port, February-Msrch and Maroh-April j shipment, 11 6-16d —New Orleans, March-; April shipment, 11 9-16d—t,ow middling, j any port, February shipment, 11 1-16 d— j Steamer, from New York, 11 1-16 d— j lfhollerah, fair new Merchants, via Cape, March April shipment, 9 5-16d—Oomia wutta, fair new Herobants, via Cape, March-Aprii shipment, 9 5-16d. Supply. —From our table it will be seen we now make the visible supply 164,154 bales larger than at this date last year The stocks at Bremen, Marseilles, and other Continental ports, omitting Havre, : which ia given in oar table, were, oo the i 11th inst., 41,300 bales, against 20,150 last j year, an increase of 21,150, whioh, added i to the above (164,154), makes the total in crease over last year in round numbers 185,000 bales. j The next question is, what stocks do spinners now hold as oompared with this aate last year ? Ot 'he Ist ultimo our home trade held, according to estimates of the L ; verpool Cotton Brokers' Association the same quantity as on Ist January, 1869, viz, 80,000 bales. Daring the seven weeks that have since elapsed spinners have taken from this port and London 383,308 bales, against 400,018 in same period last year ; and if we assune their oonsumptioo to have been 5,000 biles per week larger this year than last, tley would appear to hold now about 52,000 bales less than at this date last year. From the circular of Messrs. Easton & Cos, of New York, and also from the circuar of Messrs. Neiil Brothers k Cos. it appears American spin oers have »o far this season taken some 35,000 to 40,000 bales les° than last season. Tho trade upon the Continent appears also to have taken less since Ist ultimo than during same weeks of last year. We have not at hand complete returns, but the deliveries from the three i rincipal ports, Havre, Bremen and Marseilles, show a decrease, as compared with last year, of 5,200 baits. From the fore going evidence we suppose it would be safe to estimate that —taliag into account the decreased quantity ol cotton now held by English, Continental and American spin ners —the actual apjarent supply is now only about 100,000 kies larger than at this time last year. That the position of spinners generally is uuch more favorable than at this tirno kst year there is no apparent reason to iouht. The question theD naturally arises, why have they lat terly bought less cotton than last season? We suppose the correct answer to be found in the facttla: the reoent develop ments in regard to the American crop have induced theta tc buy only to supply their immediate wante. Manchester —Messrs. Alexander Collie & Cos., io their iircular of yesterday, re mark as follows “The improvement in onr market whioh set in about three months ago is still main tained, and while American cotton has given away about id per lb- shirtings attd yarns have advancod id. Spinners and manufacturers —more particularly the former—are now working to a profit, and in many cases their production is engaged for the next two months. The demand has been chiefly for Indian account, but within the last ten days buyers for China have entered the uarket. Nor has the demand been eonfited exclusively to the great Eastern markds. A moderate busi ness has been going >□ all round, and the result is that stocks of staple goods are completely cleared out, and odd lots only are available for immediate delivery.” India —From Bonbay we have mail advices to 22d ultimo, which report a con tinuance of unfavortble weather in the Berars, Central Provitces and Broach dis tricts. From Dhollerth the crop accounts continue favorable. Messrs. Bell Ventz and Lucius, in their circular of 22d ultimo, retort the Quantity ot motion on shipboard in the harbor of Bonbay, according to Customs’ pass notes, at 37,586 bales, against 113,193 bales at same date last year. Messrs. George Lockhart and Cos. telegraph under dati of 12th instant “stock on shipboard tstimated at 53,000 bales.” These statements, in connection with the fact that theorops of are this season four to six weeks later than usual, indicate light shipments for some weeks to come. Our latest telegram from Bombay is to 16th instant. Cotton mar ket firmer, new Oomravuttee, ready. 9jd, cost and freight. Goods market dull; 8$ lb. shirtings 6r sa. Tho clearances of Cotton from Bombay last week were only 2,000 bales, viz.: 1,450 bales via the Cape, and 555 bales via Suez, and from the Ist Januarj to the 12th in stant the clearances to Europe were only 52,000 bales, against 9T,500 bales, and 104,300 bales in the corresponding period •f 1869 and 1868 respectively. The re ceipts from Ist January to 12th February were 55,000 bales less tlan they were in tbe same ame last year. Brazil.— From Pernambuco we have ad vices to 22d ultimo. Messrs. Johnston, Pater & Cos., in their circilar of that date, say: “All the interior ol the country has of late been suffering more or les« from want of rain, and from Maceio tho ac oounts of the crop are decidedly unfavora ble, and some estimates put it as not much over half the previous one.” VVeekly Review oi Augusta Markets OFFICE CHRONICLE 4 SENTINEL, I Augusta, Ga..

A Few Words of Weight.—“Do you mean to say, madam, that he has taken no other medicine? - ’ This question was asked the other day in relation to a young man, "the only sou of a widow, - ’ who was theu rapidly re covering from a state of absolute prostra tion. occasioned by chronic indigestion. It was asked by a friend of the family of the invalid’s mother, Mrs Kiernau 95 Abingdon Square, New York. The medicine referred 10 was Planta tion Bitters. *T do mean to say it,” re plied Mrs. K. ; "We had tried twenty other remedies before, without the slight est benefit; but we tried none afterwards for the Bitters proved ail sufficient.” ’ The lady herself is the authority for thi statement ; and she further states her be lief that the restorative in question is the best tonio and invigorator ever adminis tered.

A Curiosity for the Ladies— There is on exhibition, at the salesroom of Messi s. W 1 eeler & Wilson, No. 025 Broad way, the first Sewing Machine (No. I) made by that Company, the present num ber being 350,000. Let the interested compare the machine sold in 1851 for $125 with these now offered for $55 The former owner of this machine givee its history as follows : The machine was finished early in 1851 and I learned its use Irom Mr. Wilson hirnelf. X was thus, you aee, the first to work the Wheeler A Wilson Machine, and learned on the first machine they ever manufactured. In 1854, I earned, with the machine, $295, beside doing my own housework and taking cere of my baby. In 1850, we cameto Davenport, and brought the ma chine with us. X believe it is the first ma chine ever brought to lowa. I run that machine almost constantly for more than fourteen years, on all sorts of work, from the finest dressmaking to the heaviest tailoring. I quilted e full size. white bed-spread with it, which has be n exhibited three times at the fair, it took me three weeks to do it with my other work; but it could not have been done by hand in as many years. I havo even stitched leather with it, and at the time I exchanged it (In 1805) lor No. 193,320, it worked just as well al whin made. It is, perhaps, unnecessary for mo to add that X believe the Wheeler <£ Wilson to be vastly superior to auy other machine made. Yours, respectfully, P. E. B.
