The polico of Atlanta, on Tuesday,
found eightnon bolts of Roswell Mills

strides of concentration or consolidation,
must doprecate tho necessity for their ex-

edy for the evils complained of, because
comparatively few of tho railroads of tho
country extend into or through two or
more States. Our Western A Atlantic or
State ltoad is one that so extends, and is
the only completed Georgia road that ho
extends, except tho Atlanta Air Line. Tho

Ot'it telegraphic dispatch* s mention a
new horse diseaso in Now Yollt. A notice
of it which we find in a Now York special
of the 17th inst., says that it in entirely
different from the opi/.ooty, and is affect
ing a largo number of horses in tho city ;
that first it affects the eyes, then the fore
head aud hips, all of which swell largely ;
tho horso refuses food, and is soon dis
abled for work.
A mighty implement is the hair pin !
Phil Gibhs, a prisoner confined in tho
Station Honso nt Atlanta, picked his way
through the brick wall with one of those
little chignon fasteners, on Sunday morn
ing before day. Ho scratched out the
mortar around one of the bricks with the
pin, took out tho brick, ran his bund
through the aperture and slipped hack
the holt of tho door. This let him out
into Ihe passage, mid when the policeman
on duty, hearing a noise, opened tho out
er door, Phil shot out past him aud mado
good his escape.
Tin. special telegraphic correspondence
of the Courier- Journal from Washington,

The Herald says that Mrs. Phillips is a

Davis, wo believe, was a member of the
Logisl.it ui'«< of Alabama, as well as Post
master. though wo don’t fully understand
how ho could hold both positions. His
defalcation will take one from Spencer’s

The Supremo Court of Georgia, on
Tuesday, delivered judgments of affirm-
,inee in tho following cases from the Ohnt-
tahoocheo Circuit ; Harvey Bright ot at.
vs. O. O. and Uuheooa Adams, from Ran
dolph , W. 1'. Williams, udm’r, vs. Rich

ro, from Muscogee. Judgments of rerrrs-

road Company, from MuROog ; Neal Car

this commission, for oithor our cotton
the commodities which wo buy from
other sections, it would, perhaps, lower
tho charges of roads crossing State lines,
but would leave their connections still at
liberty to fix their own rates.
What then ? It being found that tho
remedy was only partial, and therefore of
no material benefit, tho next stop would
unquestionably bo to regulate also the
charges of roads altogether within one
State; and tho authority of Congress to
do this would ho claimed ns a necessary
concomitant of the delegated power to
“rogulate commerce between tho States,”
bucanso experiment would havo demon
strated that Congress could not rogulute
commerce between tho States without
fixing the charges of both classes of
roads.
The question is a perplexing one, for
exorbitant or unequal railroad charges
aro undoubtedly a serious impediment to
commeree botwoen t ho States. There
also, good reason to believe thnt a u
formity of rates, even though they might
tin considerably lower than tho present
maximum charges, would bo advantage
ous to thu railroad companies themselves.
There is, generally, too great a disparity
botwoen thoir “local” and their “through
rates, amt tho disparity is owing to tho
competition of rival through lines. If
they make nothing on through freights,
they try to make it up on local freights,
and as local rates aro at so mi point be
tween tho place of production and tho
place of consumption charged oil noarly
all froight passing ovor tho railroads, hut
vory few consumers derive benefit from
the competition of tho through linos,
after all. it is manifestly an error, in a
business point of viow, to charge ns much
for transportation one hundred miles as
for throo or four hmulrod, nml yet this is
what many railroads commonly do. It
would he no greater error for u Columbus
merchuut to sell corn to consumers at
Fort Valley for 7fie. per bushel, hoaauao
otherwise Macon competition would got
the Fort Valley trade, nml at tho huiuo
time charge a Chattahoochee county con
sumer $1 2<*> per bushel because there is
no competition to take away tho Undo of
that county. Thus wo soo that the rail
road companies have themselves gotten
tho r business operations into such a stato
of complication and non-conformity, that
a wise and judicious general regulation
might result to thoir advantage, as well as
that of tho public generally.
It is to tie regretted that thu ruilroud
companies themselves, or thu sevornl
States through which they pass
which they aro located, cannot settle this
perplexing question in a fair atul satisfac
tory tnnuuor. Wo have every reason to
believe that uuh*ss they do so, the bill
now boforo Congress, or one of a simil
character, will pass in a year or two ; ai
there is nothing clearer to our apprehen
sion than tho fact that if this bill passes
it will boou be followed by one regulating
the charges of railroads altogether within
one State, upon grounds ami for reasons
which we have stated above.

Yesterday’s mail brought us a letter
phia Huli
cm papei
received t
that what
ul to loam from the Vhiludel-
i ot Tuesday (tho only Noitli-
a later date than Saturday
US') that “it is apparent now
lay t»e called the respectable
wing of the Republican party iu Massa
chusetts intends to support Mr. Charles
Francis Ad uus as its candidate for the
place made vacant by the death of Sena
tor Suiuuer.’’ Tho Hulletin itself does
not much favor Mr. Adams’ election, for
it says that “his serious defect is that Ins
Republicanism is not so earnest as we
should wish it to ho ; his loyalty to the
party has uot a suffi.'iout amount of en
thusiasm to please those who believe that
the Republican organization is tho only
one capable of governing tho oouutrv
safely and properly.” But it apprehends
that the choice must L>o botwoen Adams
and Butler, or a candidate supported by
the Butler wing, aud it greatly prefers
Adams’ elootiou to Butler’s triumph in the
person of any man. It says that it would
bo little lees than calamitous if Butler
should succeed in filling the vacancy with
a man representing his principles.

thing in it about the mud of Atlanta nml
ladies’ gaiters aud underskirts, which we

we copy ;

all about bis other
writings ; we remember how a good-heart
ed, rather good-brained man, Binart iu
business, moving in good society, and
withal thinking himself well posted, came
out of his office on that Had morning, und
holding up his newspaper, said to his
smarter clerk, “Who the dickens is this
Irving, anyway?” It Boomed a little more
out of place than that question almost uni
versally put after tho National Democrat
ic Presidential Convention of 1844, “Who
the Ht. Nlcholnfl is James K. Polk ?”
A physician in New Haven, one of tho
best men that ever lived, once told us of a
little happening up in the centre of good
Connootieut, that illustrates, I think,
quite oh well as anything I think of now,
the roal wealth of fame, and it ran some
what as follows :
Onoe upon a time the oddly mado-up,
erratic, gifted and gloomy pout Percivul
was connected with the geological survey
of tho Htato. It so happened that lie wss
waiting at a small railroad station for tho
arrival of a train. It also happened that
G. 1‘. R. James, the novelist, tie of tho
“solitary horseman” who died from over
riding, had come to this country, and
stumbling upon this station was also wait
ing for tho train. Thorn was a third par
ty, one of your uneasy, officious men, who
aro always nosing around for something
now—some frosh sensntion. Well, tho
Third Party caught a sight of Percival
and of Jamos, and, chuckling all over, ho
remarked to himsolf what an excellent
thing it would bo for him —for him—to
bring tho two noted men together. Ho ho
did it in a twinkling, without consulting
either one. Ho fancied to himself that
ho had done a big thing, and already, in
imagination, he was telling Mrs. Third
Party all about it. He thought the two
great men would bo so delighted to soo
each other.
“Mr. James, Mr. Percival; Mr. Porci-
val, Mr. JamoH, permit mo”—aud so
forth ; and ho stopped back a yard or so
to allow tho greut men to tail;. To his
unbounded astonishment, tho two uion
only trowed, and thou each kept ou pacing i
the platform alone.
By and by Third Party came near Por-
oival. Tho lattor asked: “Who is that
gentleman ?”
“Why that is G. P. U James, the gre<it
English novelist.”
"Never heard of him, ' said Percival;
“say, isn't ho drunk?”
Third Party was vory much discour
aged. Ho kept ou walking tho platform.
Al last James made an inquiry concerning
thu identity of the gentleman to whom
tie had been introduced. “That,” suid
tho other, “is the great American poet,
Percival.”
“All, indeed,” said Mr. James, in tho
most total blank as to anything concern
ing any such poet. Almost instantly,
scanning tho wild Percival olosoly, ho
added, ‘‘Seems a little crazy, ch ?’’
Thpro is u good story told of Daniel
Webster. If it has been fold in print be
fore, l never saw it. And oven if itj had
been given, there is no specific law I
aga ”Kt giving it tho second timo, for it is
quite -‘orth the tolling. A certain judge*,
a Now Euglauder, gave it with a keen
relish.
When Daniel Webstor had reached the
vory topmoHt height of his fame, after his
great speech in reply to Col. llayiie, of
South Carolina—tho speech commonly
known ns his “constitutional speech”—lie
paid a visit to his old home iu New
Hampshire, the neighborhood of his boy
ish years and his tir«t manly aspirations
and struggles. A woll known citizen was
bis companion. Aftor going up the rough
mntniu roads for a good long while,
Webstor poiuted out the nonrnoss to tho
>hl parental roof-troe. “There,” said ho,
“is neighbor— Jones we will call him—
there’s our old neighbor Jones. I'll stop
ami talk with him, and hoo if he knows
mo.” Ho Mr. Webster got out of the
wagon and walked ou ahead. Soon he
met tho old man Jones, and “passed the
time of day,” as they suy iu good rural
New England. Webster walked lazily,
loiteringiy along tho road, and tinnliy
turning, said to tho seamed, gnarled, rug
ged old farmer :
“Wasn’t thero a family named Webstor
once living near you ? i Uuew something
of u family of that name said to live iu
these parts.”
“Why yes,” said Jones. “Webster,
yes, our old neighbor. Had too likely
boys. Los—see; Zeke, atid thou thero
was—wlmt’s his name—O, Danr‘1, Danr’l
Webster." And then Daniel, loaning on
tho fence, engaged in a long talk with the
farmer about tho Webster family—a talk
quite mi necessary to reproduce heir.
The farmer was very eutlmsiastic about
Ezekiel. Kzckiol Webster, it should he
remembered, was a young man of raie
promise, of evon greater promise than his
famous brothel, as we believe the latter
admitted in riper years. He died when
but a youug man. The farmer could m t
say too much in praise of Ezekiel, to all
of which, of course, Daniel Webster lis
tened with boundless satisfaction. But
finally tho latter said: “What became of
tho other brother, Daniel?"
“O. 1 don't know," said farmer Tones.
“Ho went away, and I believe is a kind
! of lawyer down iu Boating.”
