Henry Banks, of Atlanta, h is, for the past two or three years, been experimenting upon palmetto and wire grass for making paper. Last Au gust he shipped 8,000 pounds to a paper mill in Philadelphia, and went there himself and witnessed the whole process of converting palmetto leave# into paper, which proved a greater success than liis most sanguine hopes had anticipated, lie has an affidavit of the superinten dent of the paper mill where it was tested, which says that palmetto paper is superior to that made of wood, straw or rags, both in texture and cost of pro duction, and will yield a profit of fifty per cent, to the manufacturer. Mr. Banks confidently believes that even a greater profit than fifty per cent, can be realized—the raw material costing from j to \ cent per pound, while rags will cost 4> , and not make as good paper as the palmetto. Air. Banks is organizing a stock company to introduce the manufacture of this paper into Georgia. The pro posed location of the mill is on a water I power m Lowndes county, in the midst of palmetto growth, of immense capacity, sufficient to make 20,000 pounds of pa per per day, and a sufficient quantity of this plant grows within an area of ten mil -i to supply a 20,000 pound mill per year. __ The Horhk Distemper.—Prof. Law, of Cornell, thinks that the disease that afflicts our horses is the result of poison ous organic matter in the atmosphere ; anil says that for the past few months hut 'hers have hod unusual difficulty in preserving meats, and hence there must he a great growth of fungi from ill-pre served meat. The disease is un old one, and has been traced hack four hundred and fifteen years before Christ. It will 1.0 very pleasant for men who have lost fine horses to know that they died of a venerable and therefore eminently re spectable disorder, and none of your modern, new-fangled distempers. It appeared thirty-nine times in the fif teenth century alone. The horse is a finely organized animal ; the surface ex po I ,ed to the air in Jus lungs is about 1,000 siptare feet; uml, since lie is so often overworked and badly housed, it is not strange that diseases affect him with peculiar severity. Prof. Law recom mends burning sulphur on a shovel in stables as a disinfectant, but horses need not be shut up except in bad cases. The following remedy for the disease has been recommended by Dr. Godwin, of Virginia, and Dr. Bturm, of Cincin nati, both eminent physicians : 1 quart gold dust whisky; 1 pint pure New Or leans molasses or honey; 2 oz. syrup ipacac ; 1 oz. dulcamara or bitter sweet; 1 quart sweet milk. Boil togeth er, and when cool give this quantity at two do-c.... Give the same quantity two I days in succession. This is known as the ‘•‘Gold Dust Recipe for Epizootic,” and is saiil to be very efficacious. New Oounterewt.—The Washington ('kronicle, of Wednesday, says a very dangerous imitation of the fifty cent fractional currency note lias made its appearance, which is apt to deceive the ■careless. A glance at the lettering, however, will at once establish its true character. The face of it reads as fol lows : “The people of the United States. Fifty cents.” The legend at tin* bottom reads : “Whenever it is due to the United States.” It is signed in the right hand corner, “C. 11. Greeley.” In tiie left hand is also a signature. On the luck Ihe note reads thus : “This paper is not exchangeable for United .States notes by the Assistant Treasurer of tic 1 United States in sums not less than three dollars. Not receivable in payment, rtf all dues to the United States, Five Dollars, not excepting customs.” Postal Teleoi. vi’hy. —The presence of a large number of prominent telegraph men in Washington, in connection with the Government agitation of the postal telegraphy question, has given occasion to considerable gossip. One statement which finds currency is that William 11. Orton is to lie made Postmaster-Gouoral after the 4th of March next, in the event of Congress granting any legislation favorable to the adoption of the postal telegraphy system. It is further stated that the Western Union Telegraph Com pany is now ready to sell out to the Government, (Hoviding the price offered is sullieient. One Mayor Puts Another in the Calaiioose. From the Atlanta Constitu tion we learn that at Opelika, Ala., a Mr. Dunbar, who claims to be Mayor of that town, was incarcerated in the cala boose by order of the regularly elected Mayor. Air. Echols. It seems that, Mr; Dunbar wastin' Radical candidate for Mayor and Mr. Echols the Democratic •candidate. Echols was elected. Not withstanding this, however, Dunbar •claimed to be Mayor and held Court, flic ease went up to the Supreme Court, und that body decided that Echols was the Mayor. Yet, Dunbar refused to yield, and on Friday held Court in Echols’ seat. Echols committed him to the calaboose for contempt. I wuNni.utixM in Buhkk. —We regret to K'uru that tlie gin house of Colonel J. ,1. Jones, of Burke county, was destroy ed l>v lire on Monday night lust, togeth er with several bales of cotton and a large >iuantity of cotton seed. The cot ton destroyed belonged mostly to negro .tenants on Colonel Jones' plantation, .and the loss falls heavily upon them. The house was new and a very fine one. The total loss is estimated at §2,000, on which there is no insurance. The lire was evidently the work of an incendiary, as there had been no ginning i>r other use made of the house for sev eral days before. RESIGNATION OK VICE-PRESIDENT PAL AI KR. Judge O. H. Palmer, for many years* prominently identified with the Westero Union Telegraph Company, and holding the position of Vice-President of tiie corporation since 1871, has re signed to a vonne the positiou of Chief of the Law Uureau of the Mutual Life Insurance Company of the City of New York. For eight years he filled the po sition of Secretary and Treasurer of the Western Union Telegraph Company, having been elected to that position in p'tid, to till the vacancy caused by the des.'h of Mr. Isaac 11. Elwood. Tnr Horse Dropsy.— ln ease any Q f (i le burst's of the city should lie seized w ; ti» the dropsy, the following recipe, fu.'nished by Capt. J. M. Me (.low all, of Y.'hlruington, N. C., should be tried : “Take inside bark of swamp old er (not alder), boil with water until very strong decoction, ami let the horses drink, which will cure them of the dropsy.” __ A Nice Placb. —The Commissioner of Agriculture has a good thing of it. In addition to his salary of So,ooo per rear, he appoints one son a clerk at SI.SOO and another at §1,500. He also occupies as a dwelling t a porion of a public building, estimated at §1,200, and appoints his family man servant a messenger at §9OO per annum, besides other extras and perquisites. A Nf.\t Democratic Paper in Wash inoton City. —Unawed by past experi ence, anew Democratic daily, to be called the Federal Democrat, to take the place of the Patriot, will be started in Washington in a few weeks. A stock company is now being formed. There are 2,000 shares, at §SO each, in the con cern, about five hundred of which, it is said, have been taken. Mr. 3. JJ. Macon offers the Eufaula Times newspaper and job office for sale. He wants to sell it on account of ill health. The office m one of the best fitted up in Alabama, avi the paper has a large and well-established ei^cijlation. The Brunswick ani> Albany Rail road.—-The sale of the Brunswick and Albany Railroad, as the Atlanta Von uNtufion learns from a private • source, has been postponed until June. Court has adjourned, and the case will not be tried until February. The representative of the foreign holders of the road visited Atlanta, to look after their standiug at the capital and consult with Lochrane, Clews’ at torney. The indebtedness of Clews is sanl to be half a million. Other indebt edness runs, it is supposed, to 8200,000. It is conjectured that these foreign bondholders will buy the road. The Thu e Hundred Destitute Ital i a vs,—lt turns out that the three hun dred Italians who arrived at New York 1s t week, and who have excited such general sympathy, were not swindled after all. The Italian Vice-Consul at New York, Sig. Bagnatti, is authority for saving that they were simply told at Havre, France, that they would have better opportunities for obtaining em ployment in the United States than in Bm-nos Ayres. They are certainly des titute, but the swindling part of the operation had its birth in the prolific brain of some New York sensational Bohemian. Manufacturing Gas from Air.—ln London a patent for making gas out of air only, without the intervention or use of coal, has been taken out, and is said to be a perfect success. The validity of the patent is now undergoing the test of a law suit. The new gas is much cheaper than that manufactured from coal, aud besides being an admirable il luminator, it is claimed can be used as a heating medium and motive power, so as to supersede the steam engine. The particulars of the discovery are not given, though its importance is said to beyond question. The Edgefield Tournament and Ball. —On Friday (to-morrow; tlxa Edgefield (S. C.) Sabre Club will have a grand tournament, to be followed by a ball at night. The Augusta Sabre Club and the Dorn’s Aline Club are expected to be present.

TO THE ASSOCIATED PRESS. THU ALABAMA MUDDLE. The Radical Governor Lewis Recog nizes the Radical Rump—The Rump Swears in Men Not Claiming Beats- Great Excitement —The Regular Leg islature Hesoived to Maintain its Organization. Montgomery, November 29.—Gover nor Lewis sent a communication to the bolters to-day. promising co-operation with them in their legislation. Governor Lindsay, before retiring, sent his message to the regularly consti tuted Senate and House, in session at the capitol. It thus turns out that both bodies have received Gubernatorial re cognition. The bolters were without a qnornm in , either House, but by admitting Baker as Senator from Morgan county, Chis holm as Senator from Limestone, Deren as Senator from Marrango, Miller as Senator from Butler and Conecuh coun ties, none of whom held certificates or other credentials, they got up the neces sary quorum. Three of these had never filed a notice of contest on Senators holding certificates, nor did any one have official knowledge of their claim to seats as Senators, until they appeared and were sworn in among the bolters at the United States Court room. The same rule succeeded in getting up a quorum in their House of Repre sentatives, men enough having been there admitted without credentials to do so. For this action Governor Lewis is , severely criticised by the people, who ’say that he has assumed to create a Legislature where, for want of a quo rum, none existed before. Much excitement exists, but the Leg islature at the capitol, having in both branches been called to order by officers and the means provided by the consti tution of the State, and being composed only of men holding regular certificates of election, and having been officially recognized by the Governor, who was 1 Governor of Alabama when the Legisla ture assembled,and whosenthis message to and approved bills passed by them, are determined to hold their organiza tion, reiving on the regularity aud le gality of their course, and the sense of justice of the Federal Government. THE COMMUNE IN BOSTON. The Boston Fire Reported to Have Been the Work of Labor Reformers A Late Invention of a Powerful Chemical Combination—Only tle Commencement of War Upon the Capitalists. New York, November 29. —The Herald prints two communications signed “Chemist,” in which the writer, who says he is one of the Paris Com munes, states that the Boston fire was the work of the Labor Reformers; that the explosions heard during the fire, which were attributed to other things, were but the explosions of a powerful chemical combination lately invented and known only to him and his con freres, no longer than an ordinary ap ple and costing only ninety-two cents each. He says their work at Boston was but the commencement, and intimates that capitalists shall still further suffer if the rights of labor are not respected, : PERILS OF THE RAIL. An Engine amt Passenger Train Run Off a Fifteen Foot Embankment Tlie Engineer Scaliletl to Death—All the Passengers Wounded. Syracuse, November 29.—The engine, baggage and two passenger oars of the Binghamton Road,‘last night, ran off an embankment fifteen feet high, near ■ Janesville. Peter Melian, the engineer, was burn ed-ami scalded to death, and the fireman fatally scalded. The passenger cars were both badly smashed—one turned upside down and caught fire, but was extinguished in sea son to prevent another horror. All the cars and the engine were totally wrecked. All the passengers were bruised, but only three or four were seriously hurt— all belonging here, including Mr. and Mrs. Hoyt, and S. D. Baker. An un known woman and child were quite se riously wounded. The worn out track caused the accident. FIRE IN NEW YORK. Burning of Lina Edwin’s Theatre and Other Buildings—sloo,ooo Loss.

He is authorized to explain that this action is not hostile to the United States, but precautionary.

The property is valued at §300,000, and was purchased for §3,000. HORACE GREELEY. The Closing Moments of His Life—His Bast Words, "It is Done Tribute of the Press. New York, November 30.—The ac counts published of Mr. Grerley’s last moments represent him to have been conscious. Daring the day, as is usual in cases of inflammation of the brain, his physical suffering was extremely slight, but increased and a morbid action of the mind was evident from exterior manifestations. He was asked “Do yon know that yon are dying?” Without tremor or emotion he answered, “Yes.” Again, when asKed if he recognized Mr. Reid, he looked up with immediate re cognition, lifting his hand, grasped Mr. Reid’s feebly and said distinctly, “Y'es.” His last words were, “It is done.” His face hardly ebauged, only settling a little into a look of perfect peace. The Tribune says: “The melancholy death of tlie editor aud founder of the Tribune , though for a few days it had been expected by his family and in timate frieDds, fell upon us with all the shock of sudden calamity. He had reached indeed a ripe old age, but time had not laid its withered touch upon him. Fis splendid constitution easily bore the strain of enormous labor. His mind was as fresh and strong and sug gestive as in the prime of life. His generous impulses were unchilled by disheartening experience though the trying campaign has just closed. His physical vigor, his tact, liis intellectual activity, surprised even those who knew him best, and seemed to promise many years of usefulness. It is certain that no history of the most critical period in na tional life can be written in which Horace Greeley shall not be a couspieious figure. But the noblest career in his eyes was that which is given up to others’ wants. The successful life was that which is worn out in conflict with wrong and woe. The only ambition, worth following, was the ambition to alleviate human misery and leave the world a little better than he found it. That he had (lone it, was the consolation which brightened his last days and assured him lie had not lived in vain. “It is not for us, in the first hour of our loss, to paint his character or cata louge his virtues. Although for several months we have missed the inspiration of his presence and the guidance of his wise counsel, his spirit has never ceased to animate those chosen to continue liis works, and the close bond of sympathy between tlie chief and his assistants lias never been broken. We leave his praises to the poor whom he succored —to the lowly, whom he lifted up—to the slave, whose back he saved from the lash—to the oppressed, whose wrongs he made his own.” The Herald, in its editorial upon Greeley, says : “He has, in a mistaken as piration for a higher field of usefulness and power and glory than journalism, fallen a sacrifice ft> his political ambi tion. He had failed to appreciate the commanding position which he had se cured as a leading American journalist, and leaving it to pursue the ignis fatuus of the Presidency, he dropped the sub stance for the shadow of u great distinc tion. Otherwise, tlie history and the enduring rewards of Mr. Greeley’s in dustrious and useful career are full of encouragement to young men who, with out capital, personal influence or power ful friends, have the battle of life before them.” THE ALABAMA TROUBLE. UnitedStatea Cavalry Encamped About the Capitol -The Movement Creates Great Excitement—Gov. Lewis Re fuses to Receive a Bill from the Capi tol Legislature -The General Gov ernment to be Advised of the Situa tion. Montgomery, November 30.—This morning detachments of the NiuthUnited States Cavalry marched to a point twenty yards from the Capitol grounds and bivouacked. Intense excitement followed, but learning that the troops were intended for a mere posse comita* tux, and not to drive the Legislature from the Capitol, the excitement sub sided somewhat. The Legislature at the Capitol passed a bill and sent it to Gov. Lewis, but he refused to receive it. A joint resolution passed raising a committee to communicate the facts of the situation by telegraph to the Government at Washington, and appointing a delegate to present a writ ten statement of the case to the Presi dent. The Legislature express great confi dence that the President will sustain them, when the facts are laid before him. In answer to the committee of the Capitol Legislature,] Gov. Lewis yester day replied that two bodies claim his recognition. That the members of the other received a majority of the votes cast, and that he.could not recognize the Capitol Legislature, because, if the per sons whom he said did not receive a majority were included, the body would be without a quorum.

There has been less activity displayed in our provision market during Iho past week than the week previous. We attribute this, however, to the want of transporting facilities—tlie i-carcity of which is caused by the prevailing horse epidemic. The demand for supplies of all kinds is good, but in consecineneo of the above related reasons transactions have been less and smaller than they would otherwise have been. Bacon is easier and prices have a declining tendency— supply fair, especially of Tennessee meats, which are coming in more freely. Corn—demand fair and prices lower. Wheat -demand good and the market as to price and condition is the same as at last re view. Flour—city mills—demand heavy and prices unchanged, country and western brands are in fair demand at last week’s figures. Oats —with fair supply the demand for seed's good with prices ruling tlio same as last weel . Do mestics—demand continues good and prices firm. Country produce—viz: eggs, but.er and chickens demand good and all offered find ready sale at full prices. PRODUCE.

The grave claims its victims from sunny, joyous youth, as well as hoary and decrepit age, and yet, despite this truth, how hard to give up those we love to the cold embrace of the cofflu and the tomb. The death of the young is always peculiarly saddening and afflictive. It seems so hard to die in the pleasant Spring timo of life, ere the flowers of hope have begun to wither, or the heart has grown weary under the burdens and cares of liter life. Yet, if the summons find u-.prepared.it matters but liitle whether it comes in life's morning or at its eventide, for in the light of Christian faith and hope There is 110 death ! An angel form Walks o’er the earth with silent tread. And bears our beat loved things a\\ay And then we call them "dead." The subject of this notice was a bright, sunny-hearted boy, the pride and joy of a happy home circle" and a favorite with all who knew him. Gentlo and affectionate in disposi tion, kind and genial to all. None knew him but to love him - Noue named him but to praise Reared under pious home influences, he gave Ids heart to God in boyhood ere contact with the world ‘‘had stained the plumage of his sinless years." Ju-t buddiug into manhood, he looked forward with bri r ht hopes to an early completion of his coilegiare course and his entrance upon the graver duties anil re sponsibilities of life. On the night in which lie died he retired to 1 rest feeling unusually well and cheerful, and ! vet ill one brief hour he slept the sleop that! knows no waking in this house of clav. Dying I thus suddenly, away from homo and kindred, the blow has fallen with peculiar violence on his bereaved family anil friends. Rut the pu rity of his life consoles us with the assurance j that he ha< been but transferred to that 1 brighter world, where tho sunlight always shines and shadows never come. Urieve not. then, afflicted onos, for tho loss of your dar- , ling boy. the pet of your household; for though you shall hoar 110 more 011 earth the I tones of his gentle voice, or feel the clasp if his loving hand, you shall meet linn aga n in the spirit land, to mourn novormore for the sound of a voice that is silent, or tho touch of 11 hand that is still.
