Wk will attend to the Montgomery
Journal in our next issuo. That paper
does not furnish a good text for Sunday
writing.
It ia Btulod that the late wife of Senator
Stunner, from whom ho obtained a divorce
in 1873, on the ground of desertion, had
a potition before a MosiaobusettH Court
for leave to inarry again, pending whoa
the Senntor died.
Thb next Gubernatorial campaign in
MasBachu«r‘tH 1ms already opened. The
Bouton /uyirtsu nays that no I«hh than a
dozen clubs have boon organized and put
in good working order by aotivo politi
cians in Boston, and thoir motto in, “But-
lor for Governor.’' The Express thinka
Butler will secure tho Republican nomi
nation, and that tho Democrats can win
by running Mayor Gaston against him.
BIJTliER AND “THE MOITIES."
Specials to the Now York paper* aay
that tho testimony bofore the OommiLtee
of WayB and Moann shows that clerks of
Fholps, Dodge & Co., and Story A Co.,
were bribed by Joy no and his agents, and
thnn the information was obtained upon
which tho books of thoHO hounos worn
seized; that Butler was tho coubsoI of
Jayne, and that while damaging evidence
against tho latter was being elicited, he
and Butlor wore “in conference on the di
lemma in which they found theniHolvoH.”
The Washington dispatch to the Tribune
says: “Tho gentleman now horo from
Now York and Bouton, who aro determin
ed to coutiuuo thoir labors until Congress
shall do sometbiug further for their relief,
say there is no doubt that before tho in
vestigation closes tho exact connection of
Gen. Butlor with tho informer and moiety
business will be fully shown to his dis
credit ; that, the ainonut of his share, his
fees and other matters, will be given, and
bis interest in tho conspiracy developed.”
A JIKiKK'kl DECISION •
Isaac M. Marsh, Notary Publio and
ar-ojflcio Justice of tho Poaoe of Chatham
county, lias judicially pronounced parts of
tho act pnssed by the Into Legislature “to
regulate tho foos of magistrates and con
stables of tho city of tiftvaunnh,” uncon
stitutional. Tho parts pronounced un
constitutional aro those which forbid jus
tices from making special contracts with
parties litigant for larger fees than those
prescribed by the act, and prohibit justi
ces and oo us tables from receiving pay for
drawing bonds in criminal cases. The
grounds for pronouncing those provisions
unconstitutional are that they abridge the
privileges and immunities of citizens, by
infringing on the rights of citizens to
make contracts ; also that the legislation
being special, must have the free consent
of all parties affootod.
Wo have no idea that this decision can
stand, upon these grounds. The Legis
lature undertook to rogulato tho foes and
powers of public ojfloert, not of “citizens,
and in doing so wus exorcising a power
which it lias often assumed without quos
tion. If it cannot regulate the fees and
define the powers of jnations and consta
bles, noither can it prosoribo the powers
and duties of ordinaries.
Mr. Marsh assumed that his court, be
ing part of tho “judioary” of tho State,
had a right to paaa upon the constitution
ality of acts of tho Logislaturo. Be that
as it may, it can hardly be claimed that
bis decision injlnal and not to bo appeal
ed from to a higher court. When that
appeal in made, perhaps wo may sea am-
•tbor view of tho case.

I.ANT HOI KS OF tlllSINF.R.
Below we copy from tho National Re
publican of Thursday morning an account
of Mr. .Sumner’s sudden illness aud death.
It uouriis that on the day before his death
tho resolutions of the MasHuehusolts Leg
islature, expunging tho previous vote of
uonsuro for his battle-Hags resolution,
were presented to the Kenate and read iu
his hearing, lie died in loss than 1M
hours after this vindication of his course
had boon commuuioatud to the Honuto:
Oa Tuesday morning ho arose ns usual,
took n bath, eat a hearty breakfast, and
seemed iu unusually good spirits. About
noon ho appeared iu iiin seut in the .Sen
ate Chamber, but about Li o’clock he com
plained of heiug ill, nnd for a few mo
ments reclined on one of the lounges in
tho auto-room; but shortly after, feeling
better, he again took las Himt in the Clinin-
bor, and was a silent spectator of thnpro-
oeodingH in rognod to tho action of tho
Massachusetts Legislature iu expunging
the resolution of otmsuro from their jour
nal, n copy of wtiioh was laid before the
Honstehy his oollouguo, Mr. Bout well. Ho
held a short con vornumn wilhHouator Sar
gent, in which lie slated that he had re-
ooivod soveral very inmlting and threat
ening letters on account of his opposition
to lhe Centennial bill. Aflor this he had
a talk with Senator Fairy in regard to I .s
complaint, am! stated that tho night pre
vious he had foil quite unwell and had
■ont for the physician. Mr. Ferry it sim
ilarly afflicted, aud the two talked over
the disease and ita remedies for aouio time.
Subsequently he met ex-Sonator Nyo, and
during a brief ehat said, “Mr. Nyo, i wish
yoa were hack in your old nont by uie. 1
think yonr jokes mid good nature would
add ten years to my life. He left between
4 and a o’clock, and proceeded directly to
hia home, where ho dined and spout the
evoning. Yesterday morning, probably
aware of his critical condition, ha request
ed that telegrams lie sont to Colonel J. W.
Forney, Dr. Brown Hoqnard, his medical
advisor, nnd other personal friends, in
forming tlmiu of his condition.
During the day, as responses to them
and original dispatches trom others were
received, they woro read to him, and he
dictated the answers. A largo number of
Senators and Representatives oallo*! dur
ing the day, iuqiiired ss to tii.s health, and
left their cards, a a only his personal
friends woro admitted to the clmuihor
Under the influence of (he narcotic which
had barn ho freely administered he dozed j
considerably, aud when he would rouse
up am! ask for anything, he would re
mark, “I am aorry to trouble you so
mttnb, "or “1 am giving you so much
trouble." About noon the physicians in
attendance concluded that they wouid not
administer any more morphine, and in its
stead he was given ohaiupaguo in sips
when thirsty, nud beef tea hourly. Thu
following is a corroot bulletin of his last
hours ;

1:80 v. m.—The medical gentlemen
fail to find any pulse, and no action.
The body is cold ns death, aud they,
witheut hesitation, assort that his remtitl

—Tho News loams that two whito men
from Savannah, sontoncod by Judge
Schley to ton years in the penitentiary for

their escape from the train while tho
guard were asleep, near tho sovouty mile

ALABAMA NEWN.

new “obligations" of Alabama.
—The Eufuulu Weekly Times has re
sumed publication, after a suspension of
several weeks.
-Patrick Brady, of Tus^aloos*, com
mitted suicide on last Sunday night by
first shooting hiun-elf with a pistol and

—Colonel ltobort Tyler,late editor of tho
Montgomery Advertiser, has become tho
chief editor of the Morning News—a very
interesting and spicy paper bofore, and
which will be much improved by his solid
ami vigorous uditorinlH.
—Tho jail of Dale oouuty, Ala., is now
used us fa dancing hall, there being no
prisonois in it. In other parts of Ala
bama people who hive committed crimes
that would send them to jail in any othor
State do thoir dancing at home. The poo-
ple whom they rob pay the fiddler.
—Tho Advertiser anys that the “epizoo
tic” Dint has prevailed among tho people
of Montgomery for the past throo weeks
has boon more troublesome and pniufnl
than last year. There has been no fatal
ity, but an iinnionso amount of suffering.
It is now rapidly disappearing.
-The nntagouiam between the Spencer
ami nnti-Spnncer Radicals of Alabama is
pretty strong and demonstrative, if wo
may credit tho Montgomery Advertiser's
suggestion that C. W. Dust an, a promi
nent Republican legislator and candidate
for Coiigrossmau-nt-largo, has lmd tho ve
nae changed in a criminal case ponding
against him, because the Montgomery So
licitor is nu uuli-Sponcor Republican, nnd

dicted for gaming.
—One of our Alabama exchanges,
tho Ozark Southern Star, boasts
that there is not now, nor has
there been for some tiwo, a
Mingle prisoner in tho jail of its county.
Wo believe that Dale comity can make
that boast almost nuy time; but just
at this time it would not be surprising if
any county in Alabama could mako it., for
tho simple reason that thieves, rowdies,
Ac., ore not required to bo sent to jail
iu that Stato—they are tnruod loose
