Ah to site first, the bill was introduced by request, at a time when public at temtion wan directed towards water tr.msport at ion, and he thought that if the government was to build canals, Georgia had as well have one. As to the vote, he confessed that if he ever casta wrong one, that was it, but it was, an error of the head. It was a great question and the light on the bill was lead by none legs than Benjamin Hill, and all men were fallible, except Tom Watson. Watson had charged him with remaining silent while the Sherman bill, which threw the south into financial bondage, was living enacted. He read from the New York Herald a long account couched in the most flattering terms^jR his it. uncompromising He followed this at tack ujron up by reading an extract from speech¬ es on the same line made shortly thereafter, at a time when Watson said he had remained silent. He said that if he showed that Watson had falsified the record. M atson would have to apologize to this peo¬ ple whom he had attempted to de¬ ceive, or else could find no place outside of everlasting infamy and disgrace. A'..lost every period was me*, with loud applause. After finishing with his own defense, he ably defended the democratic party anti made some telling arguments. Hear the close of his speech, just ua ho was clinching one of his strong arguments, the bench on which a> number of third party meu were fitting broke down, caus¬ ing some confusion. “That's a third party plank, I know.” said the general, and art tins the crowd went wild.

Turn the hoy’s face so that a strong light may shine into his eyes, and the phenomenon is at once clearly soon . Around the pu¬ pils of the eye, in the igis, are the twenty-six letters of the alphabet, arranged systematically. They are very diminutive, but clear and dis¬ tinct. There are thirteen letters in each eye, those up to “ m” being in the left eye and the remaining ones in the right. Lee hails from Geor¬ gia, and has wandered to this state, lie is rather below the average in intelligence, and seems not to know the value of money. Lee says his father, who is a poor preacher in an isolated section of Georgia, also carries the alphabet in his eyes, but never thought much of it. He has four brothers similarly affected.

Harrison Nominated. At three o’clock last Friday afternoon the ballot was taken and Harrison nominated before the call of states was completed. We had hoped for Blaine’s nomination, as he has more sense than the whole nomination Republican party, but as the came on Friday we hope the Democratic rabbit foot will get in its work &nd leave Harri-on out at the hext election.
