Frond* Fontaine, which so l event occurred in this city, about noon yesterday, at the residence of Mr. H. 11. Epping. Hut, a few abort, years have elapsed since Mrs. Fontaine was among us, the beautiful Miss Mamie Flournoy, and it is indeed hard to realize that tier cheerful voloo is now hushed in the silence, of death. Genial and kind In her nature, happy and affeetionate in her disposition, she endeared her self to hundreds of friends, whose eyes will be bathed in sorrow at the announcement of her death, just us she hud entered thy threshold of married life. Her name was the synonym of purity and loveliness. The bereaved husband, widowed mo ther, and her two little children, have the heartfelt sympathies of all who know therm .

Ah, how more beautiful she'll rise! “Hands to the stainless breast, Feet to the narrow way— The Valley of the Shadow of Death Is beautiful to-day. “Bright with the smile of God Radiant with the bloom Of the Ijeck'nin* Uowcrs of hope, .

During the lust week, wo have learn ed from ]>rWt sources, and street rumors, Hint tile Investigation of the Treasury showed some Irregularities In that department. We mention it, now that it: has be come generally talked of, as a simple act of justice to the Treasurer, Col. j Jack Jones. From tin- best form that the rumor has assumed, we gather the following: Of the $1,003,128.88 report ed us on hand in the Treasury on the fiqst of hist. January, only sloo,two is found -a discrepancy* that is said to bo the result of the payment of bonds aTtd'eAuprms of Which no return was made. The Macon Telegraph says, “that certain "bonus of flic State, run ning back ns far as the administration of Governor McDonald, have been tluplianhul and oven triplicated, as to series, numbers,, and amounts, and paid mttre Hum once. ” We allude to this matter for the : pttropse of quieting these rumors, as, we have learned from a member of the Finance Committee that all such fs'ire iintiuttuMzed by them, and that when thyir. investigations are over the’ jieople will know whom to censure. The friends of Jack Jones are more than satisfied that nothing is wrong ipt'far $s he is concerned, fur his palf record is a full guarantee of his high integrity, and uncompro-, mining honpsty. Ho held office when rascality was at u premium, and yet Ilia name has never been tainted even '■ by S suspicion. Our people should not heed such rumors about a citizen : who suffered imprisoment, rather than give tive people’s monoy*to tho military government; but sent the money to Canada, and when Geor gians wore again in power brought it back and faithfully accounted for ids stewardship. This fact, alone, should sootue to him a suspension of public opinion until the investiga tion is over, although the press and the people,.ue far as heard from, have not questioned Ids integrity. (>itral Itallrond UiNfrlnilimflon. The Eufauln papers have been commenting at a rapid rate on (he Central Hail road discrimination against them, and in favor of Colum bus. Wo do not know or pretend to judge whether they are discriminat ed against Faifaula, but one thing we can assure them, that Columbus is not the favorite. At considerable trouble, we Obtained the following cotton rates from Montgomery, and give them to the public, and to our Eufauln friends, that they mqy see whether Columbus is favored by this powerful line. From Montgomery by all lines, (including the Central,) the freight to Boston is SI.IU; Columbus pays sl/20. To New York from Montgom ery SI.Qi); from Columbus sl.lO. To Chicopee, Lowel, Spriflgfieid, and other manufacturing towns $1.10; while Columbus pays from $1.31 to $1.38. Those arc the rates, and yet Cos. iambus is one hundred miles nearer to t he above places,than is Montgom ery, still we are formal to pay much higher freights. We do not think such discrimination just, for it ma terially effects our city. Columbus is u cotton market of note, and but for this discrimination, would soon bo one of tire Important ccftton mar kets of tho country. Why is it that tho Centra! line will use their author ity to stiffle Columbus, when she places thousands of dollars annually in her coffers ? Wo would like for someone to explain it to tho mer chants of Columbus who suffer from the unfair discriminations. The merchants and shippers do not coiuphiiu of the price charged, for they agree with us, that tho officers of this road owe it to the stock-hold ers to make the line self-sustaining, blit they dye-object Hi the discrimina tion. If we had a competing line like Montgomery Ims, this injustice would not be dealt out to our citizens to their disadvantage, and to the benefit of a rival market. The ltev. Dr. Hicks, who figured in Georgia, a few years ago, as an elo quent preacher, leotmvr, Ac., it is said, has turned up as a Republican partisan, and member of the Florida Legislature. TO IVt)lUnft MUItMN. Student.— Thorn are not as many synonymous words in the English language as you suppose; indeed, some philologists contend that there are no two words but have some shade of difference. Tuko, as an example, the words safe and secure. They ore not ox4ct synonyms. “Secure” is com pounded from tho Latin - so, apart from, or free from; vara, euro. One may, therefore, be really in a posi tion of groat peril, and yet feel quite secure. Again we often see a lady unwilling ty pass by an. old cow in the street; she being altogether safe, but by no means secure. Cohtmbux. The generation in which a man lives may fail to do him jus tice, but posterity rarely assigns him to an improper place iu history, lien edict Arnold’s treason was a cold, crafty, heartless attempt to surrender the fortress of West Point and a whole American army; and his private grievances and complaints against the Continental Congress wore no pallia tion. He wrote a pamphlet to justify himself, which did not even procure for him the respect of tlio English people, among whom ho died. They hugged tlie treason, but despised tile traitor. Of course, ns you suggest, he might have been rated a little differ ently had his attempt succeeded, and had the (-Atonies failed of tlieir inde pendence ; just as we have among us now men. high in the favor of the United States Government, whom our success would and ought to have eon signed to infamy. S. H. T. - All the world agrees with you in your theory that accomplish ments, amiability, excellencies of mind and character are ol more im portance than female beauty, and yet the same world always has and always will prize and praise the latter most. The celebrated Madame Do fitoel, whose homeliness of person I was only surpassed by the beauty of ] her intellect, was often heard to say j that she had never seen the day she J would not, surrender all her fame in exchange for surpassing beauty. I I Queen Elizabeth, noted for her mas- 1 1 culinities in many respects, listened \ i with complacency, at sixty-five years j of age, to tlie barefaced flatteries of : those who nought a near cut to; her heart by praising her wonderful j beauty. Lethe. As your Hum tie plume im-! ports, we would be glad if it was of our nature to forget many things; but some wo can not nor do we tiiink ; the Southern people ever will. We I differ with you us to tlie “conserva tism'’ of Gen. Gherman; and your! allusion to bis “liberal terms,” as' agreed upon with Gen. J. E. John-; ston, is peculiarly unfortunate in view j of the fact that, when Sherman per- i ceived that his “terms” were unpop-1 ular in the North, lie freely stated it was n ruse to disarm the "rebels,” ; and then it was for the Government to dictate as they saw proper! No man of Sherman’s natural coarseness ! and brutality could possibly lie con servative. You are mistaken. Andrew Jackson | was not purely a military man. He ! was Representative in Congress from | Tennessee, United States Senator, and Judge of tlie Supreme Court, long ! before tie was in military life, or was j elected President. We admit, that lie I was a success. Wish we had more I like him. 1 School Bog. You are right and your I companion wrong on tho facts.

Your teacher can take a globe and easily explain it to you. Charles M. X.—The reason (lie ; French language is so much like the Latin is that when Julius Ctosar*con quered Gaul, now France, it became part of the Roman Empire. The lan guage of the Romans supplanted that of the Gauls, and the mixture of other races after the fail of the em pire gave us the present French language. A. H. T. Nobody seems to know the origin of the Gypsies. The the ories are numerous. They have no religion, and in ail countries are noted thieves. The celebrated John Bunyan, author of “Pilgrim’s Pro gress,” was of Gypsie origin. Fair Warning to Alabama Thieves. The Legislature of Alabama inis just passed a law abolishing the re cognizance law, and from this time those thieves and vagrants strolling over Alabama had better seek a more congenial clime. This is a wise thing in the Legisla ture, and none but and Radical body, j and black at that, would ever have j put such a law upon the statute books of a State that despises crime. ; It is said that self-protection is the ; first law of nature, and we suppose the Legislature that passed such a disgraceful law acted upon that max im. Now that it is no longer a law, the hens can cackle without fear of j having their nests robbed, while the old sows won’t be afraid to grunt and j root. The election of Dr. DeKoven to the j Illinois Bishopric has revived the controversy about Ritualism, tempo j rarily quieted by the last General j Convention of the Protestant Episco pal Church. Dr. DeKoveu’s accept ance by the standing committees of the church would be likely to cause schism, and his rejection would lead to widespread dissatisfaction. His friends and opponents are alike ac tive. There is an unusual amount of plain speech on both sides, and neith er part}' is acting merely on tho de fensive. Tmf arithmetic man of the Boston Post says that, “of the seven daily | papers in New York that supported the Republican party when it came into power, six are now outspoken in theirnnti-Republiean sentiments, and the seventh manifests a very weak at tachment for the party in power.” Ol fl WAMIIIXCiTUN I.ETTKR. SpottalOcrrcaiKaKiouc”of tie, luii.i Tims".) WABinsaTON, Feb. 18, 1875. THE HimmoN., Every day, (“Very hour, the breach in Hie Republican party widens. The more patent the determination of Grant to be his own successor to the Presidency, the more resolute become his Republican opponents. And, so fur, he lias tlie best of them ; because they, the Blaine and Colliding fac tions, hate each other as bitterly as either of them hates Grant. If they i were united, they could beat him, and he and his parasites know It; hence their policy is to foment discord j among the party lenders, especially j among rival aspirants for the next Presidential nomination. Grant’s late tergiversation on the Arkansas question, following so close upon the heels of the high-handed, unconsti tutional interference in the domestic affairs of Louisiana, is well under stood by moderate Republicans to be an unscrupulous bid for negro influ- j once; mill they (to not see how they! can head him off. Butler, who is ids j fetus Achates, or, I should say, his Menhir, and by all odds the oblest manager In the Republican party, knowing that he can do nothing for j himself directly, has been working, successfully thus far,and will contin ue to work, for the retention of Grant in the White House. He dislikes Colliding, utterly detest*Blaine, and has nothing to hope for from any pos sible Republican President but Grant. Butler knows tliut. if he can succeed in securing the renomination and election of Grant against Hie pro nounced will of the Republican party of Massachusetts, ho, Butler, will en joy as his reward, the sweet revenge of controlling every Federal appoint ment in that State, thus smoothing j ids way to the Gubernatorial chair, ! which lias When for years the goal of his ambition. It is Butler that got Grant to favor the passage of the Civ il Rights bill, to which the latter was outspokenly opposed a short time ago, saying that he would veto it, if ! it passed tlie two Houses; it is Butler who inspired Grant's interference in the Louisiana imbroglio; it is Butler who induced Grant to go bock on his deliberately formed and positively ex pressed opinions only a few months ago on the Arkansas muddle, and it is Butler who Is now eoneocting with j Grant measures to Vie sprung upon tlie country during tho coming recess of Congress, which will make tlie re nomination and re-election of the lat ter necessary to tlie existence of the Republican party. HU'JXEK ANI) FRED DOUGLASS have been frequently closeted with; Grant, within a few days. Fred's special work will be, of course, to' convince the darkies, all over the | country, that Grant is the only man ' who can save the recently manumit ted slaves from being returned to ! bondage, and those who were free before the war from being deprived of the rights secured to them by the 14th and 15th articles of the amend ments to the Constitution. Butler’s scheme is bold, but simple. Grant must have, somehow or other, an army, of at least, 100,000 men, aud tlie authority to suspend at will, all issues of the Writ of habeas corpus. It Will be easy for ins myrmidons to provoke the spirited population of tho Bout hern States to resist wan ton and insolent interference with their domestic affairs; such resis tance will be termed rebellion ; mar tial law will bo proclaimed ; the writ of habeas corpus will be suspended; and Butler will be made military dic tator of the rebellions States. Under Butler, tlie State Government of the South will be Africanized; tho sever al Legislatures will pass resolutions in favor of a third term for Grant; and a National Convention of Color ed men will nominate Grant for the Presidency as the candidate of the negroes, to lie voted for by them, no matter who else may lie put forward by the National Republican Conven tion ; thus forcing that Hod} either to adopt Grant, or, which they would not be likely to do. knock the Itepub j lie.m party into smithereens beyond ! all hope of re-integration, and vir* jtmiily handing over the adminisfm ; tion of tlie Government to tlie Dcm -1 eruts without a struggle, by going I into the fight with two candidates in the field. When asked, tho other day, by one !of the less resolute members of the Radical party, with reference to the Southern programme, “How are you going to get your troops for the ! maintenance of order in the Hourly when the lltli paragraph of tlie Sth section of the Ist article of the Con-j stitution, clothes Congress with the! power ‘to raise and support armies?’ You certainly do not think that the 44th Congress will raise aud support an army for the purpose under con sideration- that of interfering in the domestic quarrels of the several Southern States?” Butler’s answer ' was “The loyal Governors and Leg islatures of the Southern States themselves, and for that matter, of the Northern States also, will only be too glad to furnish troops, and the facts of an armed rebellion existing, and Congress not being in session, will be the President's justification for calling upon these Governors and State Legislatures for immediate aid, and their justification for granting it. 1 have the very best authority for saying that the above statements are an outline of the projects of the third-term men AN EXTRA SESSION. is one thing that Grant and Butler wish to stave off, if they can; be cause they desire, during the long recess, to use the Capitol building, as j it has been used by the Republican ! party for nearly sixteen years, as a huge office, rent free, for preparing party documents and mailing them all over the country. True, the i House of Representatives of the 43d 1 Congress will not have legal control ; of tiny portion of the Capitol after 12 i o’clock of March the lth; but their creatures will, if the 41th Congress | doos not assemble on that day and ] organize. If it falls to organize, there will be left in charge of the ; House end of the building a Republi ; can Clerk of the House, .Scfgeaut-at- Arms, Doorkeeper and Postmaster, I and an army of about 13.1 employees Jof various grades, all Republicans land all upon the payrolls of the | House and receiving their salaries j monthly, just us if the House were in ! session, at Hie rates of from ss,uou down to $720 a year. The aggregate of tho yearly salaries of these men ! is about $251,518 a year, two-thirds of j which sum, $167,076, will lie paid to them, during the eight months of the recess, for writing, copying, folding pasting and addressing Grant docu ments. The balance "f the contin gent fund of tlie House will also be used for part}- purposes, beyond a doubt; and if it be necessary at any time to send spies and other emissa i ries to the South, to stir up strife and ■ manufacture evidence, men will be ! detailed for that description of work. Butler will be in clover. For, al though lie may not appear in the matter, himself, he will be the lead ing spirit. If the House employees | are found not sufficient in number, there will be no more difficulty than has ever been found before in get ting men und women detailed from the different executive departments to help the “party of progress.” j Again, there are 42Capitol policemen j and watchmen tho aggregate of j whose salaries is $71,533 80, and the Librarian and his 13 assistants whose united salaries amount to #27,000. These men are all Republicans, and nine-tenths of them would be willing tools of Butler and Grant for any work intended to secure the renomi nation and re-election of the latter, rather than be struck off the pay-roll. It is not easy to see upon what grounds Lite leaders of the Opposi tion in tlie House can justify their neglect, at this critical period of our i national existence, to secure, by irhat eree stratagem, an extra session of Congress on the 4th of March. Grant and Butler need watching at ul! times ; but now that their purpose to rule or ruin is so appurent.lt would be a crime beyond the pale of for | giveness to turn the South over to j their exclusive domination for eight mouths, to supply them during that time with oommitteee rooms, fuel, gas, a line library, stationery ail libi tum, the balance of the House contin gent fund, the bruins and labor of ! about 175 men with good monthly | salaries it would be un tiiipardona ! ble blunder to supply these aids, and 'incidentally others, to men engaged iin plotting against the liberties of I tho country. Let there lie an extra ' session. A. F.

While lam mayor of this city I shall never marry a black man to a white woman, nor a black woman to a white man.” To a bystander who suggested that perhaps he had not read tlie fifteenth amendment and j the civil rights bill, the mayor re | plied, "I know all about those laws, j but you can rest assured that not withstanding them no marriages be tween whites and blacks can take place in this hall while I am tho may or of the city.” The colored man looked surprised, and the girl's eyes filled with tears. They afterwards made application to Justice Kilbreth to perform tho ceremony, but the jus tice said he was “too busy.” —The Hinesville CtueUe says Mr. Lawrenceßearson, of Tatoall county, has quite a number of banana trees bearing fruit on bis plantation near the month of Ohopie river. lijUT OF LETTfiBA Uenuliniagia tbe PixPOfflra t Colmubun, tit., j February KHli. 1*7.1, autl wiiiali If not rolled fur within tir vyn days will Bo Hont to tlir Ilca*l Letter j OUte: Amoa W A teen M Appleby min* K Ma**ey JtttH h Appleby mis* J.
