THE DAILY TIMES. —First Fruits of the Seed Cotton Movement.— Last Monday Oliver Terrill, colored, a tenant on the plan tation of Judge John Jackson, in East Dougherty, came into the city and procured from Solicitor Oliver a warrant for the arrest of W. A. Wood en, white, who runs a little store on the other side of the river, charging said Wooden with having received stolon seed cotton from a negro, to the amount of about 200 pounds. Wooden admits that he did take 97 pounds for a debt which a certain ne gro owed him, but stubbornly refu ses to give the name. —Albany News. —ln reply to an inquiry about the debt and resources of Macon, one of its merchants in a lettei sums up the case in this wise: "Our city corpora tion is in a better condition than any in Georgia, and her bonds look cheap. She owes less than $700,000; the property valuation is $8,400,000; the regular rate of taxation is 1 per cent. This year the Legislature granted us the right to levy an extra tax of one quarter of one per cent, to pay some maturing obligations. She probably has public property enough to pay her whole debt. She cannot issue another bond unless authorized by the Legislature and ratified by a two-thirds vote of her freeholders.” A Ran With a Fork In III* Mtomaeh. Does anybody remember the Man with the' Fork, that unfortunate clerk of the great store of the Prin temps, who, pretending to swallow a fork one day, really did swallow it for good and all? i related his pa thetio story in my letter at that time. For about a week the poor fellow was tile sensation of all Paris. The ilhts trated papers gave his portrait and a picture of the fork. The comic pa pers caricatured him. He was made the subject of comic songs and comic acts at the variety theatres, and of endless jokes in the daily press. Medical science and skill were found powerless to relieve him of his inter nal piece of silver-ware, and he was finally discharged from the hospital with the fork still lodged in his stom ach. More than a year has elapsed since then, and of course he ought to have died long ago. But he is still alive, and as well as possible under the circumstances. lie resides at Dijon, but. isshorily to re-appear in Paris, where he will of course be an object of interest and curiosity to all the medical faculty, to say nothing of the world at large. During Ids stay at Dijon he iias composed two pieces of music, one of which is a waltz entitled “The Enchanted Fork.” Paris Letter tothe Philadel phia Telegraph. i I Wh at to Do in Case of Accident. - Professor Wilder, of Cornell Univer sity, gives these short rules for not ing in ease of accident: For dust in the eyes,avoid rubbing; dash cold water in them : remove cin ders, ete., with the round point of a lead pencil. Remove insects from the ear by tepid water. Never put it hard instru ment into the ear. If any artery is cut, compress it above the wound; ir a vein is cut, compress it below. If choked, go upon all fours and cough. For slight, burns, dip the part, in cold water; if the skin is destroyed, cover with vurnislt For apoplexy, raise the head and body; for fainting, lay the person flat. . —• The Parisians were so pleased with the gorgeous appearance of the Lord Mayor of London when he visited that city, last summer, in his gilded carriage, magazine blue silk gown, golden collar, and bewigged and be powdered attendants, that a petition is to be sent to the Assembly for the creation of the office of Lord Mayor of Paris. Paris at present is divided into twelve arrondissements or wards, each of which has a mayor and two deputies, the chief authority being the Prefect of the Seine, who has a general supervision. If the splendor loving Parisians get, their Lord May or they will find that they will have to pay dearly for the whistle, if they propose to imitate the gaudy figure head of London. 1 * • - Here is a verbatim copy of a Florida bill of sale : this is to surlily that, Ja cob Johnson has sold his wife Mary A.

Ivy Poisoning.—Ker osene, if, is said, will relieve the irri tation occasioned bv poison from ivy in forty minutes, anil eradicate the poison entirely in as many hours. With the point of the finger, or a soft brush, rub a small portion of the oil over the places where the eruption appears, repeating the application three or four times a day. Relief from the itching will be almost im mediate, and the cure certain and speedy. _—. ■ . Pork in Georgia. An exchange says: The mountain counties will produce large quantities of pork this season. The mast is good, and corn in abundance has been raised, which can be put in meat and made ready for market by the middle of January. The hogs in the mountains always get fat on the mast, and it hikes but little grain to harden their flesh and make them ready to slaughter. The Queen of Holland does not seem to be going to die, after all. She is known as a great patron of literature and educational movements. She was overwhelming in her attentions to Motley, the historian, when he was in Holland getting material for his ■‘History of the Netherlands,” and furnished him with every facility to accomplish his purpose. The following epitaph, copied from a Pennsylvania tombstone, has been sent to the Historical Society of that State: “Here lies the bodie of Margaret Fay, her would if her could but her couldn’t stay, her had had legs and abaddish cough, it were her legs as i carried her off.” This year’s crop of apples in Mich igan is surpassing anything ever pro duced there before. From Adrian alone 22,851 barrels were shipped in the month of October. Defects of the understanding, like those of the face, grow worse as they grow older. COLUMBUS, GA., WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 17, 1875. ALABAMA ELECTION. THR CONSTITtTION ADOPTED BY A HEAVY MAJORITY! Fnmvplt to Radicalism In Alaltnma I THE ELECTION CONDUCTED QUIETLY AND ORDERLY. Seale, Ala., Nov. 10. The vote at this place is 147 for the Constitution; none against it. About one hundred negroes came here to vote, but found no tickets for their part y and refused to vote at all. The vote at Hatchechubbeo was solid for the Constitution. Every thing passed off quietly. W. Hurtville, Ai.a., Nov. 10.- The election for tin* ratification of the new Constitution passed off quietly to-day. Very little interest was man ifested in. the election ;a few negroes voted, but the majority of tho votes were polled by the whites. The total number of votes polled was 105, all for the new Constitution. S. Eufaula, Nov. 10. Vote for the Constitution 640; against it 6. Union Springs, Nov. 10. -In the election in this county (Bullock) three beats Union Springs, Ridgely and Midway -vote 002 for the Con stitution. and 749 against—a gain of 430 over the vote for the Convention in August. The clerks at High Log and Fitz patrick's, after the whiles had voted, closed the polls and refused to act any longer; consequently no returns from those beats. The vote of this place was 310 for and 503 against the Constitution; Midway was 243 for and 80 against it. It is supposed the county will be very close; will require full returns to determine the result, P. Tuskegef,, Ala., Nov. 16.—Twohun dred majority here for the Constitu tion. Montgomery, Nov. 10.—Latest re turns indicate that tho Constitution will be ratified by 25,000 to 30,000 ma jority. There was little organized opposition among the negroes except in a few localities. Lutl.oril In tin* (drove at I,n*l. Montreal, Can., Nov. 10.— The re mains were borne from the Protes tant cemetery at 10:30 a. m. to-day, followed by about half a dozen car riages containing the members of the In titute. Superintendent Boisscau was the only officer of the Institute present. The friends of M. Doutre having insisted upon his remaining away. The hearse was drawn by two black horses. The top was mounted by a fine cross. The hearse was pre ceded by a strong detachment of po lice, under the command of Chief Benton. They were followed by the military, who walked four abreast. About 11 a. m. there was a large crowd of French Canadians in the vicinity of the Roman Catholic cemetery. Va rious remarks were made, that they could bring his accursed remains, but they could not keep them there. The procession soon arrived, headed by tho police, and entered the church yard gates without opposition. A large crowd followed behind until the cortege reached Guibord’s grave. The hearse drove into the circle, and three laborers lowered the coffin con taining the remains, which were very light, into the grave, the bottom of which was laid in cement. Just as the coffin was being lowered, some astonishment was caused by the ap pearance of tlie Cure, Rousselot, of the Roman Catholic Church, whose name, it will be remembered, figured prominently in all the law suits in connection with this affair. He asked Superintendent Boisseau: "How deep is the grave dug?” Boisseau replied, “four feet,” He then asked Boisseau “if he could identify the remains as those of Jo seph Guibord?” On Boisseau'a replying that he could, the Cure took his departure. The military were stopped by May or Hingston, at St. Jean, a Baptist i village, and did not enter the ceme tery, as he considered their doing so might be looked upon as a desecra tion. As soon as the coffin was lowered, six men commenced filling it in with Portland and Roman cement. This hardens very quick, and after twelve I hours can only be chopped out with the greatest difficulty. The Mayor has refused to keep a guard at the grave until the danger is over, and members of the Institute say that to place a civil guard there would he to invite a riot. It is thought by some I that an attempt may be made during j the night to remove the remains. The military have been withdrawn and disbanded. A heavy rain fell during the ceremony. KkirmiMtilnK- Celtinge, Nov. 16.—1n the victory of the Insurgents over the Turks at Golchko, the former lost only fifty seven killed, including one chief and six officers, and ninety-six wounded.

Their baggage, ammunition andseveral cannons were captured. Ramawe by Utorm*. London, Nov. 16. -It is estimated that the damages to London and neighborhood is fully $5,000,000. Whiskey is like an internal furnace and un infernal turn-us. MURDER IN NEW ORLEANS. THE EADS JETTY. New Orleans, Nov. 16.—At mid night last night J. J. Dowling, cotton yard clerk, got into a street oar while intoxicated, refused to pay tho fare, and after some words, ho was ejected by the driver, John McVamara. As tho driver mounted his platform, Dowling went around the end of the car and shot him in the heart. Mc- Vamara was killed instantly. Dow ling was arrested. Capt. J. B. Eads and the jetty board of engineers arrived yesterday. They will leave for tho South Pass to-morrow. Gen. Comstock is already there making a survey. Prciwrat lon* for a Demonstration on iln* AssrinbltnK ol (onure-*. Washington, Nov. 10.—For the last three months the labor leagues of the District have been making prepara tions for a grand demonstration in honor of the assembling of the 44th Congress. It was at first determined to confine the demonstration to the labor leagues alone, but as the mat ter progressed it was found necessary to enlarge the programme so as to make the reception one of general interest. At u meeting of the delegates of the Labor Leagues, held at their head quarters last ovening, thore being also present tho representatives of fifteen outside organizations, it was resolved to extend an invitation to all tho societies and the citizens in gen eral of the entire District to take part in the demonstration. This was done by a unanimous vote, and commit tees appointed to wait on the officers of the different organizations for that purpose, (’oiir'lT—man llrailtoril, Hon. J. D.

Parties from Bussell and Lee counties and Columbus cases come up Thursday. Martin and McDonald remain here until then to aid in defense. Tlie election created no excite ment. B. Reported Cabinet ebonite Denied. Washington, Nov. 16. —A gentle man who lias every opportunity to ascertain the facts in the case states that tlie rumored change in the Cabi net by the retirement of Postmaster General Jewell lias no foundation in fact. Not hing has occurred between the President and Mr. Jewell that would make such a result at all prob able. It is now certain that the statement published here and else where that a Cabinet change was im minentwasa falsehood manufactured out of whole cloth. The Plymouth Church Cose. Brooklyn, Nov. 16.— Much interest is felt in church circles here as to whether Mrs. Moulton will be suc cessful in her efforts at securing a council of churches on the question of her dismissal from Plymouth Church, and of allowing her oppor tunity to substantiate her charges contained in the recent letter to Ply mouth members. If a couneil is called, it will most probably be ex parte, as Plymouth would refuse to join in the call. The Monitor Cataklll. Washington, Nov. 1G. —All the available force in the department of steam engineering at the Wash ington navy yard was set to work yesterday to put the machinery of the monitor Catskill in order.
