grand jury of Wilkes county in call

says: Without at present recapitu

what respects the Constitution un

favor the calling of a Convention.

—The Newnan Herald gives the
following advice: Newspaper advice
is cheap, and we don’t charge any
thin}} for the following, which we
give in view of the approaching ses
sion of the Legislature: First and
most important of all, the people
need a repeal or modification of the
homestead law. The present extrava
gant exemption has been of incalcu
lable injury to the financial, moral
and Industrial interest of our people.
When men know they will have to
pay their debts, they will be more
careful in contracting them, and
when contracted, will not so readily
abandon all efforts to pay them. Let
the exemption be reduced to one
thousand dollars. They need biennial
sessions Of the legislature. We
have too much legislation, much of
which is useless, and some positively
injurious. Too many local lulls pass
ed, and too much time spent by one
Legislature in undoing the work of
their predecessors. Too much time
spent in determining what pay they
shall receive. Let that be fixed by
the Constitution of the State. They
need fewer salaried officers. There
is no reason why the ordinary of the
county should not discharge the
duties of treasurer, and one man fill
the offices of tax receiver and collec
tor. Office holding and office seek
ing, is demoralizing in its tendencies,
and the fewer offices we have to be
filled, the better it will be for our
people, and the more men we will
have engaged in other pursuits that
will benefit, not only themselves, but
the world at large. We need fewer
counties, and a smaller representa
tion, or we need at least no more Dew
counties, and no increase of represen
tation. And if a constitutional con
vention is necessary to the accom
plishment of these things, then we
need aconvention.no matter whether
it moves the earn to 1 back to Milledge
vflle or not. Will the reduction of
the homestead abrogate a vested
right, or merely alter a remedy?
The Ho-Callril French Hepublle.
The Commercial is very sanguine
as to the future existence of the so
called French Ilepublic. It reminds
us that it has had an existence of live
years. Yes, but that proves nothing.
The first French Republic existed
from 1792 to 1800, a period of eight
years. The second French Republic
stood five years. But before we con
sider the question whether the Re
public is a fixed fact or not, wo want
to know whether it is really a repub
lic at all. Is it not a continuation of
the Second Empire under a different
name and a different head ? What
freedom have the }>eeple now that
they did not have under Napoleon
111 ? Is there any greater local self
government ? Is not all power vested
in the central authority ? What rights
have the press, of which they were
formerly deprived ? Who exercises
suffrage that did not formerly do it ?
What improvements have been made
iu the cause of education ? what, in
civil and criminal reform V Has a
man a right to demand a jury of his
peers in the civil and criminal courts?
Must he first be indicted before he is
tried? Is he not subject to a pre
vious examination by the courts in
regard to hie aileged offense ? Is not
the burden of proof thrown upon the
accused ? Must he not prove himself
innocent ? Has there been for five
years any election for a legislative
body in France ? Is not testimony of
innocence required ? Is not Marshal
MacMahon the Duke of Magenta ?
Cincinnati Enquirer.
When the Atlantic Cable Company
was first started, the address and sig
nature were not charged for iu mes
sages. One day a green Irishman
staggered into the company's office
and asked, "Deyes charge anythin’
for an “Oh, no,” was the
answer. “An’deyes charge anythin’
for a signature?” “No.” “All right ;
here is me message.” Theclerktook
the paper, which read as follows:
“Patrick Mulligan. Hill of the Downs,
county Meath, Ireland.—Mike Mulli
gan.” “There.is no message' here,”
said the operator; “there is only an
address and signature.” “Well,that’s
all. Just you sena the old man that.
Iv coorse he’ll know I’m here, safely
landed; but the mania he takes out
of it is none of your d—d business,

THE DAILY 7 TIMES.
OI K AMERIC AN CARDINAL.
THE BED-HATTED REPRESENTATIVE OF
THE SUPREME PONTIFF TELLING
THE VERY INTERESTING STORY OF
HIS VISIT TO THE HOLY SEE.
Now York Sun, 29th.]
A carved door In the rerodos of the
Cathedral behind tho Virgiu’s altar
swung inward at half-past ten o’clock
yesterday morning, and the head of
a religious procession—acolytes bear
ing a crucifix, a smoking censer, in
cense, and lighted tapers—appeared.
Then more acolytes, robed like
the leaders, in crimpson and lace.
The color of tho cortege changed to
purple, the hue of the vestments of
Fathers Farley, Kane and Hogan,
separately, celebrant, deacon and
sub-deacon of tho mass: to black, the
color of tho robes of Vicar-General
Quinn and Fathers Kearney and
Valois, and last, to royal purple
scarlet, the ruling shades iu the ap
parel of Cardinal MeCloskey. A pur
ple soutane, with a trailing train,
was the main garment of the Ameri
can Prince of tho Church. It was
girt at the waist with a broad scar
let silk sash, weighed down with
great tassels of gold. Above wus a
surplice of soft lacc, and a mantilla
of velvet, lined with scarlet silk.
Around His Eminence’s neck was a
golden chain, suspending a golden
cross. On his erect, grayish head
were the berretta and a skull-cap
both scarlet. His signet, tho Papal
arms graven on a largo sapphire, was
on his left hand. Acolytes and
priests filed iu state along the edge of
the elevated platform, on which the
altars rest, and entered the channel.
All knelt for a moment.. Then the
Cardinal ascended a throne of gilded
and fretted walnut, with panels of
crimson silk. Fathers Quinn and
Valois took lower seats just withod*
the canopy, tho acolytes arranged
themselves attractively, and the cel
ebrant and the deacons began to sol
emnize mass, the choir supporting
them. At the end of the confession
the Cardinal fed the live coals in the
censer with incense, and white smoke
wreathed his person, the tlirono and
ail near it. Then tho priests iueensed
the altar, and one another, each in
his turn. Alter the incensing the
Cardinal was absorbed in his missal ~
a worn, bulky book that has probaby
been his vtttfe mecitm since he was or
dained. When tho muffled gong ad
monished the worshipers to bow their
heads and turn their thoughts to tho
altar, at. tho communication, tho
Cardinal stepped down from his
throne accompanied by tho Vicar-
General and Father Valois, knelt in
front of the altar, hared ilishead, and
knelt low in worship.
After Father Farley had intoned
the first Gospel, the Cardinal was es
corted to the pulpit, hung with pur
ple in Ids honor.
,Vnliinxl<m News.
Washington, Dec. s.—Representa
tive Kerr recoived many of his
friends yesterday who called, to con
gratulate him on his nomination for
the Speakership. All parties con
cede his fitness for the position. The
remarks of Representative Randall
in the caucus, and his motion to
make the nomination unanimous,
are everywhere spoken of in terms of
commendation. Surprise is express
ed that the West and South carried
all the offices. For tho two or three
hundred subordinate pluces, there are
at least a thousand applicants, not a
few of whom are already at work to
secure the respective positions, inclu
ding clerks, assistant doorkeepers,
messengers, document folders, pages
and buth-room attendants. A dozen
or more applicants want the privi
lege of keeping the restaurant, which
has for some-years been in pos
session of George T. Downing, col
ored. The first business of to-mor
row will consist of calling the roll of
members by Mr. McPherson, the
present Clerk, and the administra
tion of the oath of office, and next
the election of Speaker, Clerk, Door
keeper, Sergeant-at-Arms, Postmas
ter and Chaplain.
Questions affecting the seats of
some of the members may arise, and
therefore organization may be pro
tracted by debate. In view of such
an event the President will not trans
mit his message to Congress until
Tuesday noon, which is the more
probable time for that purpose. The
document is longer than that of last
year by about five printed pages in
document form, arid contains upward
of 16,000 words. 'The message will
be telegraphed to the press of the
country.
All the reports of the Heads of De
partments, except that of the Secre
tary of the Interior, have been sent
hence to be held for publication until
the message shall be sent to Con
gress. The printing of the above
named report has been delayed, but
copies will be forwarded to-morrow.
The contents of the message have
been studiously concealed. The most
interest concerning any part of it is
expressed concerning our relations
with Spain, Cuba included.
There is much speculation with re
gard to the appointment of the
standing committees of the House,
and already Representative Randall
has been accorded by outside parties
the Chairmanship of the Committee
on Appropriations, Fernando Wood
the Ways and Means, and Cox the
Foreign Affairs; but such a cast is of
course without the least authority,
and several weeks may elapse before
the Speaker himself shall announce
the committees.

Tlirre Prisoners Attempt to llrenk Jail
-One succeeds.
Cincinnati, Dec. C.—The Enquirer’s
Circleville special says there was a
desperate attempt to break jail by
the convicts Sunday morning. When
keeper Hartmeyer entered to replen
ish the fire he was seized by Sam Ma
son, colored, while Francis Dunton,
another prisoner, struck at him inef
fectually with a knife. Nicholas
Johnson, a third prisoner, assaulted
the jailor with a red-hot poker, which
Hartmeyer seized, burning him terri
bly. Johnson struck Hartmeyer
across the shoulder with the poker,
felling him to the floor. The three
then ran out, but Hartmeyer’s wife
raised the alarm, and Mason and
Johnson were recaptured, but Dun
ton is still at large.
