LAEQEST DAILY CIRCULATION In <*y on* H tlw Fr,e mil. It in now definitely known that the Force bill did not panx the Senate; not for tlic want of a perfect willing noss to pass it, but because they had not the time. Something had to be left undone, and it W‘‘io better thin bllT tli## Hie liffercjM Appropriation bills fir in the latter most of them hod a little direct interest in flic way of “engineering money.” With a lit tle money In sight., their infatuation for the negro was overcome and at , such an hour the bill for the negro must be .sacrificed in preference to the gold. Well, the Infamous bill is not a written law, and does not disgrace the, statute books; nevertheless, the spirit of the law is the law in this land. Grant’s orders are our laws, and it doe* not require them written, to suit his hate and venom. Our dis l>atohes represent Grant, in the Sen ate during the dying hours of the Force bill, urging the Kudleal mem bers to puss it. When told it hud only been read twiee, and that the IVmoerats would not waive the tldrd reading, then his frenzy knew no bounds. He begged they would call it up, ami discuss It thoroughly, in order that the loyal North might un derstand it, and endorse his poliey during the recess of Congress. He meant by this language to be under stood as intending to carry out such a programme as the bill contempla ted, whether he had the passage of the hill or not. Grant wants to retain his position, and no matter who placed him in power, he is certainly there, and in tends remaining. The people wiio put him there, want him to remain; and ull they demand of him is, the continued oppression of the South. If we look to the people that placed him there, the day of redemption is indeed far in the future, and the yoke will remain on our necks until a rev olution strikes it off. I'lews Heard From. The investigating committee must have felt pretty small, when they read Clows’ letter in the Atlanta Herald. Clews was the man by whom they thmyht they could prove certain bonds laid been paid twice. Clews says positively and emphatical hj tk/4 none of the lx Kide hare hern paid twiee. Does this not leave the watch dygs of the treasury in a beau tiful situation presenting such grave charges against an honest man, and going so far as to order suit against his bondsmen, when that witness on whom they rely, says lie won't Swear their way. Yet the dam age to the reputation of the Treasur in' has been Uoue by the suggestion of a suspicion, though it is true the damugo was but small, as no one ex cept a few of Hullook’s and Kimball’s friends would believe it. The idea of a second payment was suggested by Col. Jones to Governor Smith, in this way. He found in Clews’ statement of rush expendi tures, frequent sums marked "paid Georgia bonds.” The frequent oc- UWWINP Of tills note, caused him to 'wiy to thl Governor, **l am nfriiid this fellow lias charged ns with some bonds wcJtave paid since we come in.” Tim committee should all hast en to send in their apologies, and the men who put them up to the investi gation might as well take a back seat, as there is not likely to occur any vaeiiney in fhe Treasury office. We suppose the suit ordered by the Legislature "ill be yotoud by the Governor, though it would lie better for an investigation, that Jack Jones can hive a chalice to ventilate tile whole affair, and Include the com mittee. **- Thr Froaix-rlly l Our Illy. If had become commonplace among our neighbors to refer to Columbus as a “dead town,” but now It seems the tide of such expressions has turn ed, and wo are looked upon as a thrifty and growing community. Call ing our merchants “old fogies,” while never applicable, lias been left off, and to-day Columbus lias more enter prise in her borders than any eitv of fhwwtmeAH> fn the South. Despite the unjust discrimination made our town by reason of the ■iiujlml Itailroad’a eottou freight, Co lumbus is visited by people yf western Florida and the counties nd- TidSntto the river. The trade of the city is steadily increasing, and new industries are constantly adding to the importance of Columbus as a manufacturing city. The prosperity of a eitv is measured to a great extent by the value of her real estate. Since the panic real es tate has steadily decreased, and in s6nie small places town property has depreciated two-thirds in value. At lanta claims to lx- the rising city of the South, and now that Kimball has returned anew impetus is promised that place. With all of its boasted importance, and its railroads, Oolum bus is not far behind her. The public, sale of real estate in Atlanta, a few days ago, realized the sum of thirty three dollars per foot front, und for property oq the principal streets. On last Tuesday, in Columbus, thirty feet front was sold for uiue thousand dollars, which makes the price real ized J>qr fprnt thirty dollars. This price Is nearly equal to that realized in Attoata, and shows that the de crease in hho twice of real estate in Columbus is not great, and that the city is prosperous to lie able to main tain saplijwioes, when around us city property has deteriorated in value to an alarming extent. <;d Ail vice. The following sound advice to tlie colored iieoplc of that State and the South is given by the Richmond Slate loti mat, the lending Kepubll cati paper in Virginia, in its com ments on the Civil Rights bill. It will be well for the colored man to heed it, and w<w believe ull the re spectable i>ortion of the race will do so. No white man who lias any of the Instincts of the gentleman over cares to thrust himself where he is not wanted. Why should not ne groes observe that code and not <>b trudo whoro their company will be offensive to the whole of their follow citizens and friends ? Do colored house servants or waiting maids claim to be souted at the first tabic? Why then obtrude into white com pany at hotels and theatres, when they are furnished just aH good ac commodations In separate seats? The Journal says: “When we consider how difficult it will prove to enforce this hill, and how liable It may prove to embroil the Iwo races in trouble, we fear its effect will lie far from promoting the interests of the class of citizens whom it is intended to serve. W e trust, however, that the good sense of the colored people of Richmond and Virginia will keep them from intruding themselves in places that cannot be agreeable to them selves, or that may lie distasteful to their white fellow-citizens. In a word, let the colored people show by their conduct that there wan no need ot this class legislation; that they have no desire to thrust them selves into places where their presence may he obnoxious, and thus retain the re speet and good will of their whips neigh bors. Hut we may, however congratulate the country thul. this one fruitful souree of rancor and disunion, of bitter feeling and animosity, luih come Pi an end, although to our judgment it would have been better and more In keeping with the true inpircsts of all classes Pi have per mitP'il the questions thus sought P> be reached by statutory law Pi settle them selves as they eventually will, in spiPi of all law. To our mind, also, the convictions that impelled the friends of the bill in Congress to withdraw the clause referring to free schools were sufficient p> have killed the entire bill. If they were potent ill that particular they were equally so in every particular.” Dispatches from Florence, Arizona, to Gov. Osborn, of Kansas, state that old John Bender, tire noted murder er, lias been captured there. A re quisition has been sent for him. B. K. Bruce is the only negro in the United State Senate. He is a member from Mississippi. Unlessthe Senate admits the redoubtable Plnch buck, Bruce will huvu a lonely time in that onee.august body. • ♦ * The New York Herald very appro priately calls the pussage of the Force bill in the House “A Midnight Assas sination of Liberty.” Nothing could lie truer. * ♦ * Biiowni.ow says lie regards it us a promotion to go from the Senate to take charge of a newspaper, and that It is ids opinion, bused on experience and observation, that small men, with plenty of money and no brains, may crawl into the Senate us the snail cruwled to the top of the pyra mid, but such a fellow cannot run a newspaper. • ♦ * The Confederate invasion ot Lake Fjiix in September, tur.i, eaine before tlie House Committee on War Claims recently, the owners of a couple of yawls that, were seized claiming dam ages from the Government. It will be recollected that some Southern refugees in Canada planned and or ganized a warlike exisHlition for the forcible seizure of private steamers on Igike Erie and using them for the capture of the iron steamer Michi gan, belonging to the U. H. Navy, then stationed on lake Erie, near Johnson’s Island, where about ,(*)()! prisoners wore confined, intending by tlie possession of said steamer to ob tain control of the lakes. The com- i mittee reported adversely on the j claims, holding the Government not liable for the losses suffered. • ♦ * Judge Blodgett, in the U. S. Circuit Court at Chicago, lias decided that a life insurance company is competent to restrict its liability in ease of death brought on by insanity of the holder of its policies; but. which contains a clause declaring the company not, liable in such eases. This decision is , in opposition to many previous decis ions on the subject, as it has general ly been held in law ttiat Insanity is essentially a disease, and that against it Insurance companies could not bo protected. • ♦ - The following summary of the exploits of the carpet-baggers of Ar kansas is taken from the New York Herald: “In Ix6B the whole bonded debt of the State was $3,250,000. It had no fioating debt, und had over $300,000 in the Treasury. From July, 1808, to October, 187-1," the Treasury received over $0,500,000, a floating debt was incurred of nearly $2,000,000, and the bonded debt was increased $8,750,000 that is to say, in six years the men who ruined Arkansas spent $17,(MO,ooo, and this in a State which has less than half a million of pco ,,U’” .Ttolgft Magboe, of Florida, was im peached on the following charges : No. 1 Drunk at Tuinpa.

It is maintained that whenever there is a large metal ie surface in the roof of a building, or the building itself is of a metaiie con struction, lightning rods are unnee oessary, the most powerful discharge of eleetricily being immediately dif fused over tue entire metaiie surface and thereby rendered harmless. On this theory, it is said, the tall light house at Cape Canaveral, off the coast of Florida, has no lightning rod. It is a tower built of plate iron, and in stead of a lightning rod, there is a small platinum point attached to the peak or apex of the metal roof, which receives the discharge, after which it is so diffused by the metaiie surface as to become harmless in its descent to the earth. If this theory be correct, and it is certainly reasonable, there would seem to have been a good deal of un necessary expenditure to iuqiair the safety of. rather,than to protect build ings,"both public and private, which were already provided with safe guards against lightning.— H'aehimj ton.
