DAJLijY times. SUNDAY JANUARY 17, 1875. ||. Will.lAM*. - - - Kdllor. The Times Odli e 1* iu (Junb.r'H Building (upstairs), on Ht. Clair street. Ol lt ATI-i>Tt liKTTEH. Special Correspondence Daily Tivkn.J Atlanta, Ua., Ja.ii. 15,175. A day of welcome sunshine han done much toward making people hero more contented with themselves and hotter disposed to others, and has enabled them to discard the thicker wrappings and shoes lately found necessary, without serious fears of inereusiug the prevalence of a throat and tt4sal disease seemingly akin to the “epizoot.” The sidewalks already are Incoming jmxiuylij pass able, and it Is hoped the streets will lie helped to follow suit. Business appears to be brisk, and Whitehall crowded with pedestrians and vehicles. The thro Houses of the General As sembly have plunged in media rex, with the annual croppings out of patriotism, buncombe, and little de lightful enterings to the taste of the “dear people.” In the Senate the standing com mittees were announced. Hon. Win. SI. Beese, the Nestor of the Henuto, at his own request was relieved of the chairmanship of any committee; which is unfortunate, as among his other good qualities lie is an effective and indefatigable worker. Sir. Wof ford, a prominent lawyer of Carters ville, was made chairman of the Ju diciary Committee; while the Hon. C, V. Ktbbee, of Hawkinsville more familiarly known as “Charlie” an active, industrious and talented Sen ator, was put at the head of the Fi nance Committee. The two commit tees mentioned, being the most im portant, are joint committees—the member named as sueli from the Senate being the chairman ex officio. Your immediate Senator, B. H. Crawford, Esq., has been placed on the committees of Finance, Banks, Military and Engrossing. The Senate passed a resolution raising a committee to investigate and report, at the present session, on the validity of the State’s endorsement of certain bonds issued by the Macon and Brunswick Ballroad Company, to which I re ferred yesterday, In accordance with the recommendation of the Governor. I like one feature of tills resolution. It provides that the committee ,shall report to thin session thereby avoid ing lengthy sessions during vacation at, heavy expense. Mr. Black, of the 17tli district, in troduced a Louisiana resolution, when, on motion, all resolutions on that subject were referred to the Com mittee on Hie state of the Republic. Bills on the usury question, as well as to modify the Homestead law, were also read in each house. A large number of bills were intro duced iu the House, but few of gen eral Importance. A resolution, also, for the appointment of a committee to suggest a time for adjournment, but despite this resolution, which seems to be a little early, it is predict ed thatithe session w ill be a lengthy one, as many matters of Importance will be presented for legislation. By reference to Treasurer Jones’ report, you will find that the balance in the Treasury January 1, 1875, was one million throe thousand one hun dred and twenty-eight dollars and eighty-eight cents, instead of the fig ures 1 gave you yesterday. The public debt falling due here after is $8,105,500, upon which is to be paid ill 1875, $070,885 besides such an amount of unpaid interest on railroad bonds endorsed by the State as the roads have failed to meet. It seems to be agreed that early action will be taken in this last, mentioned matter and proper menus prtnided. Comptroller Oenernl Goldsmith's report shows an unexpected increase in tha taxable property of the State. Wldle a few counties report a de crease, by far the larger number show a large increase. Much of tills, however, must be attributed to the effect of an net imssed at the last ses sion repealing all exemption laws. That report makes the following exhibltfor Muscogee county, for 1874 ; Increase in value of city proper! y over 1873, $66,775. Increase in amount of money and sol vent debts over 1873, $90,478. Decrease In value of merchandise from 1873, $159,638. Decrease In number of hands em ployed, 451. Increase In value of stocks and bonds over 1873, $35,090. While in the value of all otherprop erty (personal) not enumerated, ex cept annual crops, the decrease in Muscogee is $30,43(1; but the increase in the aggregate value of whole prop erty over 1873, is. $*56,439. Y'ou will doubtless have those Re ports and can furnish your readers with much more full information, than I can now give vow L A. W. The Hknuv Cxjtavs Failuhf. The New York Tribune states the rumor is confirmed that the assets of Henry Clews will not yield the creditors more than twenty-live cents on the •dollar. Some persons having oom imrativoly largo claims against the llrm have offered to settle for less than one-quarter of the amount duo them. An examination of the secu rities embraced in the schedule dis closes the fact that many of the stocks have no market value, and are not dealt in by responsible houses. The so-called “secured creditors.” it is stated, will not fare any better than the inseeured, ns the securities are mostly the same line of railroad and Southern stocks, claims, notes and evidences of Indebtedness of railroad officials and Irresponsible persons, not negotiable or valuable In busi ness transactions, and having no market value. •tfsT as Wi: Suspect® We thought ' bad whiskey was the real Inspiration I of Bully Sheridan’s banditti epistles, and hero is t ho strong circumstantial evidence. The Brooklyn Arym knows i all about the little banditti bully, and It says; “If Sheridan were put In a elder press and thoroughly squeezed, It is calculated he would yield enough whiskey to last Grant and Chandler twenty-four hours.” The same paper says: The “Bum mer’s Club” of Chicago, atv taking advantage of Little Phill’s absence to satisfy their thirst, and that the fol lowing, by “One of ’Em,” Indicates tiie satisfaction which liis departure gives; Como broach the “rosy” and pour it free, There’s a chance now. boys, for you ami me; ••Four Angora deep” in th*’ guage to-day, For Sheridan's many ft mile away. • It is of the first false step.that the country must beware. As Senator Seliurz said to the Republican ma jority ia Congress in reference to their schemes for maintaining power: “Y'ou did not mean to do it by the Russian method ; bnt from small be ginnings something has grown up of near kin to It -a few steps farther and you may have the whole. If you do not want to go on, then I say to you it is the highest time to turn back. It will not do to permit such tilings as wo now behold to pass without rebuke and resistance; for to permit them is to urge them on.” Keoi a. The Chicago Timex states that a wealthy man from New York, j named Rvqifti is trying to buy the Senatorship from Florida. The Con gressional delegation from that State must lie running Requa, instead of legislating at Washington. Where the carcass is there are the buzzards. • ♦ * Brute force, as Senator Seliurz Hays, is one way in which disturb ances in the South can be suppressed. There is no power that can resist the United States Army. But is brute force the best way to maintain or der? If the South must be controll ed as Russia controls Poland, then, as Mr. Seliurz says, it would be "a cruel stroke of irony to call the United States any longer a republic.” Forney. Col. John W. Forney is said to have received $25,000 from the Pacific Mail subsidy. John is in Eu rope. • ♦ • The Washington corresi 'undent of the Augusta OuixtUiUiuiuit'-xl an nounces that Mr. Stephens lias suc ceeded in having Augusta re-estab lished os a port of delivery. This was done under an old law, that has strangely been permitted to remain inoperative since the war. A surveyor of customs will be immediately ap pointed, bnt Mr. Stephens think, it would not be best to bring in a bill for the erection of a custom house during the present session, which lias nearly run its course. The smile eor respondeat, in referring to Mr. Ste phens’ health, says: “He has been in the House each day since the re opening of the session. He dined out Christinas day, and made some calls on New Year’s day. His room, when lie Is in it, is very rarely without company, men of each political party constantly calling on him, mid a great miniy ladies also. His table is piled up nil tiie time with letters from all parts of the country, which he answers promptly, with liis own hands or through liis secretary, and linils time to contribute an article oc casionally to the great Universal Il lustrated Cyclopedia, which A. J. Johnson A’Son, of New York, are publishing, and of which he is one of the editors. He plays a rubber or two of whist, every day, in which lie usually eontes off victorious. He thinks tiie political situation very grave indeed, but Is still hopeful of the eventual triumph of constitu tional liberty if the Democratie party will bo guided by wisdom, justice mid moderation, and the (leoplc of the .South, especially,will be prudent and patient, and rely upon tiie ballot and j the peaceful instrumentalities of the law to remedy all their grievances.” So far from subsiding, the storm of popular indignation against the in terposition of Federal troops in the organization of the Louisiana Legis lature gathers strength each day. Tiie whole subject of Federal mid State rights is concisely but ably treated in the annual message o’f Governor Joel Parker to the Legisla ture of New Jersey, and the Governor denounces the New Orleans outrage in lltting terms. The Pennsylvania House of Representatives adopted a dignified but, emphatic protest byh strict party vote, the Republicans'in that, body as in the Semite of New York not having the courage to array themselves against the Administra tion even on an issue of sueli vital importance. Governor Hardin, of Missouri, alludes to the subject in his inaugural address, declaring that the outrage lias given to Republican in stitutions the most alarming shock they have ever received. The Boston indignation meeting is to bo held on Friday night, and the call therefor is receiving the signatures of Influential Republicans.-- Xcw York Tribune, 13 th. Cciirls llrtoiv So Inc. On Monday last Air. Carl Seliurz made a speech in tiie Senate of tiie United States which finally placed him without question at the head of the orators of that body. It shed more credit upon the State of Mis souri than all the speeches of all the Senators, with perhaps one except ion. whom Missouri has ever sent to Wash ington. It was the strongest, ablest, most brilliant defense of Conserva tive principles and the rights of the South which lias ever been heard in either house of Congress since the war ended. It made him, or at least showed him to be, the most valuable man in the country at this moment to oppose the lawless tendencies of tiie Administration in the Southern States, and to work for the recogni tion of their rights to self-govern ment. There was not a State in the Union but might onv\ Missouri her l Senator. His term expires on the Fourth of next March. The Legislature now iu session in Alissouri has the iiigii privilege, if it will, of re-electing him. Tire majority of that Legislature agree with every word of that mag nificent exposition of principles with which Afr. Seliurz on Monday gained the cordial admiration of the country.

EVIDENCE OF THEIII EXISTENCE IN THE COAL REGIONS RECENT ATROCIOUS MURDERS OFFICERS WAYLAID, lIEATEN AND SHOT IN OPEN DAYLIOUT DUNSTA BLE MARCHER'S STATEMENT. Potthville, Pa., Dee. 26. -The fol lowing Is the statement of Constable John T. Kareher, made to a eorres jm indent in regard to the recent do ings of the Molly Maguires. Consta ble Kareher is cue of the bravest and most daring officers in this part of t he country, und Ills expu-ienee with the Molly Maguire organization ena bles him to tell more of it than tiny other man inthisseetion. Mr. Kuivh er bears the following testimony : "I know that the Molly Maguires exist among us ami can prove it be yond all question from my own per sonal experience. Coroner Hesser, burled yesterday, was "assuulted lust week and his body cut and hacked in tiie most terrible manner by parties who will never be known. A day or two ago the Chief Burgess of Toma qua was knocked down and beaten by unknown men, while It was only 1 yesterday that John Lefteubwrger ivas shot twice in open daylight, by a man named Britt. Leltenberger met Britt at Heeksherville and deinuSided an immediate surrender. Britt swore i that if Leitenburger dared approach 1 him he would kill him with the shot- ! gun he held primed ami cocked in his hand. Leitenburger bravely attempted to fulllll bis duty, when Britt discharg ed one of the barrels full at him. The first shot tore the victim’s hand and fearfully lacerated one of his arms. Without waiting to learn the effect of the first shot, Britt, with deliberate aim, fired the second, which took ef fect. in Leitenburger’* groin, causing him t" fall. As lie fell he fired with unsteady aim, and then, In opm day light, the would-be murderer made liis escape. A warrunt was at once issue,! for his arrest. Despite the sur mise of many, Britt did not flee the place, but, oil the contrary, np|wared a few hours later, armed with two re- ; volvers and a gun, and defied the whole place to arrest him. He para ded the streets and walked up and down the railroad all day, but no one ventured to. lay a hand on him. Offi cers Price and Darling went after him, but he was such a buttery In himself that it would have been fool hardy for them under the circumstan ces to have attempted his arrest. 1 left here to catch him this morning at 4 o’clock, but upon my arrival he had gone, and, though I searched the town everywhere, I could not find him. “During the lust three years 1 have arrested more than twenty murder ers, and not one of them bus been ex ecuted. I have seen numerous letters addressed to different parties bv the Mollies, all of which were ,•( the bloodiest and most brutal nature. Why, let me tell you a single ease in point. There wasa young man who lived in this neighWrho 1 formerly, by the name of Bradley: along with a man named Farrell, he went one day to a funeral. Farrell, after the services were over, invited Bradlev home to supper with him, and upon arriving at the house asked him to take a chair at tiie table. Bradley did so, and Farrell, excusing hims. jf, went up stairs. Presently lie earn • down carrying a shotgun. Without one moment’s warning, Farrell discharged both barrels into Bradley's body, instantlyd,filing him. Not satisfied with tins, he took a large ! curving knife and hatchet and cut ! the corpse iu two parts, carrying the upper extremities to a remote place in the woods, und throwing the lower ones down an air hole. Was Farrell hung? No! A little while ago, a; man and itis wife were walking along the railroad—indeed, it was only a day or so ago, when they were attacked, the poor man killed, liis i wife outraged by a brace of ruffians, and no one arrested for either crime. Can you tell me after this that the Alolly Maguires do not exist. 1 know they do exist? That when they fear to do crime themselves, 1 lest they may fail to be detected, they Import strangers to carry out their purposes, who fiv the country at once the deed is done. Why, I tell you the thing was proved clear as I daylight, in the trial of Little Hale, at j Bloomberg. His was a crime for the perpetrator of which a large reward was offered. One of the parties iden tified with, influenced by the money offered for the expose, crime forward and gave liis companions awa\ before the court on the witness stainl. He clearly stated where the Mollies met, und how they wore organized. Ilis name was Tim Dooley. He also told 1 how when crime was to lie committed, they would draw lots to see who would do It.” Now, while our pious friends are slandering tiie Mouth, and writing letters of abuse about our people, it will be well for them to have a spe cial copy of the above testimony in relation to the Ku-Klux in Pennsyl vania. There, in the very citadel of civilization and art, and almost in hearing distance of the White House, these wholesale murders are carried on, und even when caught the perpe trators go unpunished. How is it we never see any thing of this kind in their papers? Do they have poor laws there, or have they venal judges and cornu>t juries? No; it is Penn sylvania, and of course it is all right. Point to any set of men in the South who tire guilty of such horrible mur ders as these. Men sometimes mur der here when excited by liquor or stung by insult, but there "they com mit murders upon helpless women and children for gain. “Senator Gordon’s apology is ac cepted. The public are glad that lie realizes that the crack of the slave owner's wliip-lash in the Senate isn't as popular as It was in the halcyon days of Democracy.’' Thujbm (0.l Journal. Why do you not speak of Senator Gordon in the terms of perfect respect that his character and liis good man ners, his slneerety and his manliness, would warrant? Uf one thing the ixlitor of tiie Journal may be assured it is not popularity that Senator Gordon is struggling for. Cinrinnnti Commercial. A Standing Army Dangerous. Grant’s threat to concentrate the ar my in New Orleans, and “leave the citizens of the States ou the Indian border to protect the frontier them selves when the spring opens,” at once displays the worst qualities of the President with whom the coun try is afflicted, and shows the peril to a republic which a standing array may be in time of peace. The present use of this instrument of despotism to overthrow the sove reignty of States the people may ef fectively curb by ordering, through Congress, the removal of every Uni ted States soldier from the South and the concentration of them in the hos tile Indian country, where alone they are needed.

Y. Sun. Jralnio.) nml llrienxe. A singular story of jealousy and re venge comes to us from Sicily. A beautiful voting girl named Fiorina, . who was tiie belle of a traveling clr ; ells, ill which she figured us the lion j tamer, had been for some time re ceiving the attentions of no athlete belonging to the same troupe. By j some means she ascertained that he was not faithful to her. but had another lady love. No signs, how ever, of her painful discovery were allowed to escape. Mile still smiled sweetly upon him, but responded coldly to his ardent carresses. In her own bosom she planned a terrible re venge. One evening recently when the performance had been unusually ! brilliant after Fiorina hud whipped I the lions and forced them to Heat her ; feet, she called her recreant lover aside and said to him: “Do you love j me?” “Always,” hoanswered. “Do yhi know that I should die if you i should devote yourself to another woman?’’ "What an idea!” ivspon- j ded tlc young inau. “Rut l .should! ; first kill you,” said Fiorina. “And 1 how would you do that?” “Thus!” ! cried the girl, at the same instant | pushing.him violently into tlio cage i |of the lions. They attacked the uu : fortunate man at once, and tore him ! to pieces, while Fiorina urged them j j on with blows of her whip. - • - The pretty little maid of honor! whom the Grand Duke Alexis mar ried ail unbeknownst to the old folks, appears to be as spunky as she is beautiful. Alexis, it will be re membered, was sent to America that ! he might forget her, but while that! plan cured the Grand Duke, it did! not npjiease his bride, who was sent ! out of the empire by a special train. She went to Geneva, and recently it : appears that Count Hhouvaloff was | scut to treat with her. It was pro posed that she should renounce all j elaim to the hand of Alexis, should! change her name mid disappear. In return for this service, she would re j eeive 1,000,18)0 roubles down, and an annuity of 76,000 roubles, which | would lie continued to her child ini ease the latter survived her; but! Mrs. Alexis wouldn’t do it. She! loved Alexis too much for that, und so matters stand at present,—Boston Tort. • ♦ • Whose Bov is That?- He may be seen any day, in almost any part of j the city ; he never makes room for you on the sidewalk; looks at you saucily, und swears smartly if asked anything; he is very impudent, and often vulgar to ladies who pass; he delights in frightening, and some times does serious injury to, little boys and girls; he lounges ut the street corners, and is the first arrival ! at a dog fight, or any other sport or scrape; he crowds in the |**>t-offlee ! iu the evening, atul multiplies him- | xelf und his antics at such a rate that people having legitimate business are i crowded out; he thinks himself very ; sharp- -he is certainly very noisy; he ! can smoko or chew tobacco now and [ then, and rip out tin oath almost any 1 time. We ask whose boy is he ? I Mother, is lie yours? We" think he is, for there are many good qualities 1 in the lad, and we do not think that you know what ho does on the street.

Henry Ward Beecher dismissed the subject or religious revivals. In which lie did not hesitate to express the opinion ; that revivals were “gut. up." “But,' j said Mr. Beeelu r, “so was business, so was everything else. Of course j they were got. up, and there was! nothing worth having In life, that was not procurable ill that wav. Re : vivals were but the lower forms of ! religion, but they were immeasurably better than lethargy.” He referred to tiie great influence which large : bodies of men exercise upon each other when liound up by a common feeling of patriotism, which nerves | them on to deeds of the noblest and most self-sacrificing character, und lie believed it was perfectly proper to j j make use of the same agencies m ad vancing the interests of religion.
