The majority report is signed by Messrs. Coburn, Albright, and Camion. They report that but for the timely interference of the Ad ministration in,Louisiana, a revolu tion would have been precipitated upon the jieople of Alabama. The committee further rejiort that mem bers of the Republican party were subjected to a series of indignities and such maltreatment ns has heretofore been witnessed only in savage war fare. That in order to crush out the Republican party the Democrats in augurated a business and social os tracism. They declare the recent vic tory in Alabama was won by fraud, violenefe and murder; that the officers are In concert with the law-breakers, and the Ooverner unwilling to order the execution of the laws. They re gret more United States soldiers were not in the State to carry out the En forcement law. The report then treats of ballot-box stuffing and the burning of ballot boxes, which were indulged in, and gives a full review of the riots at Mo bile, Eufaula, Spring Hill, Folkland, Gainesville, and other places. The opinion Is expressed by the commit tee that had a full, fair, and free elec tion taken place the entire Republi can State ticket, with a majority of the members of the General Assem bly, and six out of eight Republican Congressmen would have been elect ed, and they recommend the passage of thQ “Force bill.” WSORITY lIEfOHT. The minority report of the Commit tee make a very long, and different report from the above. They begin by protesting against the indecent haste with which the investigation was conducted, but say the evidence taken" by the committee established that Alabama was as peaceful, quiet, and law-abiding as any other State. There was no more need of the pres ence of troops in Alabama, than in Missouri or California. That the few acts of violence brought to their at tention were not proven to have been Committed prior to the sending of troops to the State, nor has there been any proof that such acts were Instigated from political matters; that it was a party necessity of the Radical leaders to create real or ap parent disorder in the State, and that the use of tho bacon donated by Con gress to the sufferers by the overflow, the nppolntment of special deputy marshals by the score in the counties and districts within the black belt, if not under instructions from the head of the Dejxirtment of Justice, at least with assent and connivance; and the false and unfounded charges of mur der, violence and insecurity of i>erson and property made for the purpose of obtaining the Introduction of the military into tho State, were part and ]>areel of tho scheme concocted by Republican Congressmen to carry tho election in November last, per fan et nefat. While proscription and ostracism, carpet-baggery and scalawugery and subjects of alike character were most thoroughly ventilated, u full and thorough examination of the manner and purpose of the distribution of the “over-flowed” bacon was not per mitted. Enough, however, was pick ed up, the minority say, during the investigation together with the re port of the Secretary of War already given to the House, to show conclu sively that this benefaction of the (joyornmeut was diverted from the object for which it was giveD, and that a large part of it was used for the same purpose that the troops of the United States were asked for—to carry the election by consolidating and massing the negro vote for the Radical ticket. They conclude the report by saying; for suocess, outrage and violence must be manifested, and if it had no real existence their necessities re quired its manufacture. Success was hopeless without it, and with it came the army and victory at the polls. It is not at ail strange that mem bers of this committee should see the same things in a different light. The oommittee was sent to Alabama in the interest of the Republican party, and sworn before it left to call before it ail the negroes and carpet-baggers In the State,<ind report their trou bles and tribulations. A majority of the committee did their party’s bid ding, but a few brave, honest mon, eomi>osing the minority, would not lend themselves to further this dirty work, anil hence could not see the outrages Alabamians had committed, when all the evidence showed it was an honest effort at the ballot box to rid themselves of the curs and mon grels who had been feeding on her vitals. Of course the majority rei>ort will be adopted by the Administra tion, with characteristic hate for the South and to please a rabid mob at the North. Htaxd? Your Chicks.— There is a clause in the ‘‘little tariff bill,” sign ed by the President on Monday, February Bth, which provides that every chock or iwper used as a vouch er, or on which money is drawn from a bank or bankers, either on time or demand, shall be stamped with a two eent stamp, which shall be cancelled with the iuitialsof the signer and the date. The penalty for violation of the law is SSO fine on the one draw ing the cheek and SSO on the bank paying it. BKKntK-TILTSV IXFABV. Tho testimony of Mrs. Moulton, and the servants of Tilton, make damag ing evidence against the reverend bonediet. All of as are prone to be lieve many things against men cloth ed with the livery of Heaven, when we would discredit the same things said concerning the “common herd, and, therefore, the press, as a general rule, have rather favored the cause of Mr. Beecher until now, when witness-, es of unimpeachable character are brought forward, who know some thing about him and Elizabeth that must damage his cause before a jury. More testimony of the same kind is behind the scenes, which will come j to the front and reiterate the classic remark of Elizabeth, “I feel just so so.” This is certainly a curious law suit, for it has brought together husband against wife, and brother against sis ter. They seem to lose sight of fhe poor wife and sister in the struggle for personal vindication. Such doings appearstrango to Southern people,for whore Is the man among us who would prove his wife’s faithlessness in order to vindicate his abuse against a man. They go on, from day to day, making a parade to the world, and at last tho real disgrace falls on the erring wife. This may be a “civilized” way of do ing things, and may not be “chiral - rie,” but it is certainly, in our opin ion, a despicable attempt on the part ol Tilton to wring money from Beech er at the sacrifleo of his wife’s name ; and it is further evidence of Beecher’s loose morals, and the education his, congregation receives from him. The i idea of a woman’s allowing her pastor to talk with her ou such subjects is only a little more revolting than the l>astor’3 daring to confess such faith to the bosom of a would-be respect abb' member of his congregation. Wonders never cease, though we are not much surprised at this phase of the New Turk “upper ten.” When the end has come, no matter who wins, both will lose. Alfonso.— Great Britain lias recog- j nized Alfonso as King of Spain, and ; the young King may feel consid erably taller and prouder over the fact that his right to wear kingly robes is conceded by the sovereign-, ties of Europe. Still it would be un doubtedly more to his satisfaction if some of the great powers would kindly take measures to assist him to put an end to the pesky C'arlist insur rection. Those powers will very cheerfully hold him and his govern ment to a strict accountabilly for any outrage his people may commit upon the persons and property of their subjects; but they have no am bition to help him out of his diffi culties. Pacific Mail Surra—There is a g<>od ! prospect, that the alleged recipients of Pacific Mail money, disbursed to secure an increased subsidy from Congress, will have a chance to de fend their right and title thereto in the courts of law. The public will naturally take more than ordinary interest in the suits, which, if institu ted, may bring out many interesting faets, which it was neither within the power nor scope of a Congressional committee to develop. On account of the warmth with which the Brooklyn scandal is dis cussed it has t>een found necessary in most of the leading saloons of New York to post placards forbidding all discussion of the subject. The idea originated with a Fulton street “dis penser,” who purchased his wisdom with a pier glass valued at S2OO. The glass was fractured during a little controversy as to tho respective mer its of the pluintiff and defendant. The new Senator from Tennesvs?, Andy Johnson, will find on his re turn to the Senate but one of those who voted in his favor ui>on the im- j peaehmeut trial. This is Senator Mc- Creery, of Kentucky. He will find ten, however, who voted against him, viz.: Anthony, Cameron, Conkling, Cragin, Edmunds, Frelinghuysen, Howe, the two Morrills and Sherman. 1 I The Chicago Times asks: 'Who is ! Jones? He has been elected to the i Federal Senate from Florida, after a i long and acrimonious contest.” And the Grand Rapids Denunrnt answers: "He belongs to that jiarty the Time* has been endeavoring to bury for the past ten years—he’s a Democrat.” Whiting from Lyons, France, Colo nel Forney says that "the working people of America are the happiest and best paid on earth. They eat the white bread of the world.” And what glorious chances this country afford for $25,000 speculations. The two cadets dismissed from An napolis on aceountof a difficulty with Baker, a colored cadet, are Hood, of Alabama, and Meltou, of South Caro lina. Mr. Chas. Connor, of Bloomsburg, Indiana, recently deceased, left SB,- GOOin trust for the University of the South, nt Sewaimee, Tennessee. Gen. James B. Steadman, a well known Union officer, who was in tho army with Grant, and whoso knowl edge of him is full and thorough, says: If lie docs not die the victim of his appetite he will cause his country more trouble, more excitement and more bloodshed than any man who has lived on this continent. In every position he tilled in the army he gave convincing proof of his despotic char acteristics in the unrelenting bitter ness he exhibited towards rivals. He could neither brook control nor rival ry, and thwarted in either became unmanageable to such an extent as to excite alarm in Washington. A Florida man wants to know why we don't keep up with the Beecher trial. Well, the truth is, Aunt Har riet Beecher Stowe is a subscriber to the Alines, and we don’t want her to discover, if we can help it. what a self-complacent rake Henrv Ward is. —Savannah AVi's. 011 l ATI.A XT A I. UTTER. 1 spcciid eofr'.j'-.n.e-nc iuu.t tuuk.j Atlanta, Feb. 22,1871. The great day is over. Tlxe people here did not show by their demon i stratlons that they wore at all glad ' that George Washington ever exist j ed. Of course, the banks closed, but there was little that occurred to mark the day at all extraordinary. Two of the military companies pranced uround a little. It seems strange that ! the people should let such a day pass Lo quietly. Under similar cireum j stances almost any other nation I would make it a day of public rejoie j ing and festivity. Much good can be ! made to result from a well regulated ! public holiday. A day that reminds a ]>eople of better times that have gone, ns does the 22d, may lie made useful in inspiring a love for the pur ity and honesty which once marked the Government. It carries us back to the “good old days,” and almost invariably causes a longing for their return. The city is as busy and bustling as ever. New buildings are going up in all parts of it. There is a constant increase in number and variety of manufactories. It is probable that Messrs. J. J. Taylor & Cos., of Balti more, will soon establish a large bil liard table factory in this city. They seem confident that such an institu tion would ]>uy. If erected, it will bo the only factory of the kind in the South. The Legislature is doing about as much as usual. It must be very un pleasant for these representatives of i the people to continually hear coin- I plaints of their tardiness, but it does j seem that they might expedite mat ! tors a little. The 2Cth is the regular ; time for adjournment. There was some talk of prolonging the session. | but the opposition to this movement i was so strong that at one time it had ! little hope of success, but now it is a | living fact. The apprehended trouble about the Treasury is apt to come to little, after all. There is more excitement every where else on the subject than there is here. Tostart with, everybody known that Jack Jones is thoroughly honest, and is such an old fogy that he would not steal if a good chance were offered him. He is strong with the people, and it will take twenty such reports as has lxeen made before they will! weaken on him. The rumors grew j primarily from a resolution introduc-1 ed by Mr. Kibbee, asking for a com-; mittee to insjxM't the Treasurer’s] office. After the committee was ap-1 pointed, rumors fiew all over the j State exaggerating the whole matter, j The whole thing resolves itself into this fact—that Treasurer Jones, under ! a mistake, has i>aid $150,000 for bonds which had already been paid. The ! committee charge him with nogli i genoe in this matter, and call upion • him to resign. Conscious of no wrong, i he emphatically declines to resign, j and says he demands an investigation into tlie management of the Bond ( Committee, which allowed him to pay j them without warning. There is no 1 ' doubt that the blame does not rest with him, but with previous Legisln- S tures. Under ordinary circumstances : : such a state of things might be een- J , surable, but as the ease now stands, ' the Legislature must ratify the acts of the Treasurer ; and if the people had a voice in the matter, they would do so without hesitation. The trouble 1 is with the bonds Henry Clews had i for sale on account of the State. As ' : soon as Clews refused to deliver up 1 the bonds he had cancelled, the State Legislature, or the Bond Committee, j should have called in the bonds, can- j celled them, and exchanged them for. new ones. Instead of doing this, no- j thing was done, and as a consequence ; Clews again put them on the market, j notwithstanding the fact that lie, while financial agent of the State,, | had paid them once with Georgia - money. How was Treasurer Jones 1 to know this fact ? and what protoc : tion did the Legislature give him ? The first man who discovered this j fraud ou tho State was Treasurer Jones—and he, on learning it, eom . municated the fact to the Governor. ! The committee have done him only a j simple act of justice in saying, "ho is not personally charged with any fraud, and that they believe him honest.” I will write again ou this subject |as the affair develops itself; at the | same time I say, hold on to your faith j in Jack Jones.

Editin' Time*: We arrived at this point late this afternoon, and found our friends generally in good spir its over tlie result of yesterday's municipal election. The Democrats carried the day—the blacks voting al most solidly with the Democrats. The election was quiet and all passed off serenely. Mine host. Mr. A. J.

I became at once dissatisfied and told the waiter I was raised on deli cate food and did not like anything he had placed before me, nothing would suit, and all the guests said I was “too airy” for a countryman. Well, it’s all in a man’s raising. The merchants here are in much better condition financially than they have been for the past four years, and all look for n fair Spring trade.
