Tick tirst balloting in the MassachuHettH
Legislature for a United States Senator,
when the two Houses voted separately, is
reported by a dispatch of Tuesday night.
Dawes lodjin the Senate, and lloar in the

Tho contest ox cites much interest, and it
increases now that a protracted strugglo

who killed him w’os a member of tho last

and was lately imprisoned by order of
Judge Cox for contempt of court, and this
constituted tho motive of the murder,
is stated that his conduct in court, for
which he was imprlsonod, was outrageous
ly improper and disorderly.
The Eufnula Nnn, explains a “very im

the Chancery Court for Harbour county

? uick and loud reports could bo heard
rom the mountain sides. 1 stopped at
the house of an old farmer, who welcomed

hundred in tbo house, as the mountain
had scured him nearly out of his life.
They are urged to this, not by a resolu

Till: CAPITOL RI'ENTION.
Wo suo now that tho question of the
seat of government is being connected
with tho select ion of tho next Oovornor.
Tim Millodgovillo Union declares that the
pooplo arc for Gen. Colquitt for Govornor,
provided he will favor tho removal of the
capital to Millodgovillo, and one or two
other expressions by the press of a simi
lar character have mot our eye. Such
declarations confirm us in our opiuion
that tho pormanent location of the sent
of govorumeut is a question that ought
to bo dotorminod separately and promptly.
It ought not to bo oouuoctod with tho
question of oulling a Convention, with the
ratification of n now constitution, with
the elections of mombors to a State Con
vention, or with any othor elections. If
so mix >d up, it will prevent the decision
of questions of great and gnnoral impor
tance upon their merits, because it will
iulluouco tho votes of a groat many poo
plo, though it may bo only a subordinate
issue and ono ill which the groat mass of
tho people are very littlo concerned. It
will bo a disturbing element in our poli
tics until settled, and should therefore bo
put out of the way as hood as practicable.
If the Legislature at ita last sossiou had
pna.sod a constitutional aiueudiuout em
bracing this question ulono, it might have
been settled within about ono your from
this date. Tho next Legislature could
also have passed it at its mootiug in Jan
uury next, nud lmvo at once submitted it
to the popular vote for ratification or re
jection. There in no good reason w hy the
friends of ovory looality aspiring for the
capitol should not huvo agreed to this
mode ot nettling tho question. If they
want a full and fair expression of tho pop
ular will upon the matter, that is the way
on the clothiu' she has ; and I never did
hot hoavy on Sunday schools, no how. I
can’t buy much sugar nor cofi'oo ; I never
liked sugar in cofi'oo, uud only got it to
please tho ole woman—bo wo'U Htriko out
sugar. 1 must lot up on boots and pants
i for tho boys ; and wo enu’t run oil' for a
doctor whenever any ono fools had—
though 1 haven’t puid Dootor Smith's bills
for sumo tirno. If tho worrutns destroy
cotton, doctors should bo mado to fool it
as much us planlcrs. I can't buy gunnor,
nor hay. I got no fodder, and tho mules
must work on short rations of corn—of I
can got any nt all. Well, on this nil 1
reckon I ought to bo ablo to cut down all
of five hundred dollars.”
Tho economist rises, lights his pipe,
refreshes himself with a glass of “old
corn,” for which ho paid cash, and then
walked out with the air of a man who has
resolved on a great piooo o! solf-donial
for the sake of his fumily uud the rest of
mnnkiud.
Of oourso, this man onunot ho taken ah
a typo, but wo think ho represents a largo
class. Yosterdny such u man oallod on
us. Ho was accompanied by a friend,
and judging by their intoxication and ca
pacity, they must have spent hotweon
them four dollara for whiskey. Yot they
wished for time on tho fow dollurs they
owed iih, vowing they did not have any
money. When they left wo watched
them, and thoy walked as straight ns their
staggering logs would lot them to a sa
loon, whore, wo preaumo, thoy proceeded
to drown their sorrows in another bumper.
The economy that bogius with ceasing to
aid (he church, or pay for a paper, or
rong a doctor--wo wore going to add,
“or cheat a lawyer,” hut that's impossi-
lo— docs not stand on a good basis ; par
ticularly if tho man deprives his wife and
littlo ones of absolute comforts without a
thought of curtailing his owu whiskey and
tobacco.
A l>kSI UYI.I> TKIHUTE.
Tho Christ inn Register, a Unitarian
paper of Bouton, in reviewing some ser
mons of Kev. Win. J. Ellis, of Nashville,
uses tho language wo copy below. Mr.
Ellis is well-known to many of our poo
plo, having often preached iu this city,
aud once having charge of a church in
LIuhroU county, Ala. Ho is n brother of
Messrs. D. 1\ and UorwoU Ellis, of this
fity, and was always noted for his sturdy
independence of character and unilinohiug
adhercuco to what he boliuved to be
right. Wo copy from tho Christian Reg-
inter :
Wo have never before hoard of Mr.
Ellis, but wo hope to hour miieh of him
hereafter. If those interesting uud able
sorinous arc a typo of tho character of
tho man, ho is a man worth kuowing.
They are genuine ltroud Church sermons,
quite worthy to bo classed with tho best
sormoUH of Stanley, Brooke and ltobort-
sou. Mr. Ellis has been for a quarter of
a century a uiisister of tho Episcopal
Church. He is now an indopeudont min
ister m Nashvillo, having been driven out
from the church of his love boenuso lie
would not equivocate; would not conceal
his opinions; would not pr<tj&d to behove
what his reason bad rejected. It is a rep-
at seven o’clock, and had ridden over
three-quarters of a mile when a sudden
shook occurred, which so terrified my
horso that ho became uomanugoahle. He

tho left side and l&g that I was unable to

After sixteen days of prayer meeting,
during which time tho people left their
oattlo and crops to take caro of thorn-
boIvoh, thoy seem now awaiting Homo tor-
rible calamity, and in many instants
their anxiety is really distressing. Nearly
200 converts to religion ore reported.
UKANT PA KIN H PRISON EKM.
Bnil Refused.
Tho motion to hail tho Grant parish
prisoners was arguod before Judge Woods.
Mr. Whitaker, for defence, arguod that
tho judge had the discretion to grant bail
in a capital caso whore tho ovidonco
against the prisoners was not great. Aud
it was to be presumod that tho evidence
was not great or conclusive in this case,
as a majority of the jury had declared tho
prisoners “not guilty,’ and tho caso had
rosultcd in a mistrial.
District Attornoy Bockv/ith arose to ar
gue the case for tho prosecution, but
Judgo Woods declined to hoar him. The
matter, tho Judgo thought, wus one en
tirely in the discretion of tho court; it
was a case of great magnitudo.
As for Alfred G. Lewis, who was ac
quitted by tho jury nud ro-iudictod on a
now indictment charging a similar oft’enso
against him, with the more substitution
of tho name of William Williams for that
of Tillman, hail is granted.
Mr. Beckwith announced that but for
tbo sickness of some of his witnesses,
aud the absence of the wituoBsos for tho
defense, he would be ready to go to trial
now. Under any circumstances ho would
ho ready for trial at tho next torru of
court, and tho caso would bo called up
early in May.—N. 0. Picayune, 21 at.
