TiIUOV'GII THE NT ATE. —The Augusta Chronicle and Sen tinel, approving tho action of the grand jury of Wilkes county in call ing a Constitutional Convention, says: Without at present recapitu lating the many reasons why and in what respects the Constitution un der which Georgians are living should be amended, we heartily favor the calling of a Convention. —Wm. D. Anderson, a prominent lawyer of Marietta, and Mr. Elam Christian, of the Sparta Times and Planter, were admitted, on trial, at the North Georgia Conference, Dee. 3rd. —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.

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. search Instituted—-Explosion. London, Dec. 6.— Her Majesty’s ship Valorious, has sailed from Ply mouth to search for and assist the missing French steamer Amerique. The North German Lloyds steamer Koln reports that she spoke the Amer ique in lattitude 49 deg. and 40min. north, and longitude 17 deg. west. A terrible explosion took place Saturday, in the Powell Duffrin pit, near Tredegar. Twenty miners were killed and ten were taken out severe ly injured. COLUMBUS, GrA., TUESDAY, DECEMBER 7, 1875. JACKSONVILLE! ITEMS, THE HAMPTON VICTORIOUS. Jacksonville, Deo. C.— The raco bo tween the Gen. Scdgewiek and the steamer Hampton, resulted in the Hampton winning the race, but the Captain of the Sedgowiek claims his grate bars were mado to burn coal, and that when ho has them fixed he will show the Hampton and all the river boats a clean pair of heels. The steamer ITrbana, a fine large cabin steamer from New York, ar rived Saturday night, to be run be tween here and Palatka. Tho Grand National Hotel, under the of the popular Geo. McGiuiey, is now open and ready for bustuess. Northern visitors continue to come in rapidly. The weather Ims been rainy and cloudy for tho last week. The Tri-Weekly Florida Union to day is edited ns a daily, and will be continued so as a permanent thing. It is a want long felt by the citizens of Jacksonville and the State gener ally. It will be furnished with full market and telegraphic reports by the Southern & Atlantic Telegraph Company, and in every way be con ducted as a first class daily journal. Spanish Affairs. Madrid, Doc. 6.—The heavy snow continues to retard military opera tions in Gueplzcea. Spinola Ims been appointed Mayor of Madrid. Electoral tickets will be distributed throughout Spain from the fifth to tho tenth of December. Tile Spanish legation at Lisbon is raised to the rank of an embassy and Senator Castro lias been appointed ambassador. Mr. Cushing, the United States Minister, has had a long conference with Senor Collantes, the new Minis ter of Foreign Affairs. It is under stood the negotiations continue to be satisfactory. 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. Japan and China. San Francisco, Dec. 6' —The steam er Gaelic has arrived from Hong Kong, November 3d, and Yokoho ina, the 11th. A Japaneso frigate, commanded by Capt. Ito, has started on a cruise in American waters. She touches at San Francisco. No immediate action will be taken by the Japan Government against Corea. The British Minister at Yeddo, is making strenuous efforts to prevent selections of Americans for positions of trust under the Japanese Govern ment. There is continued trouble be tween foreigners and the Chinese. Two Priests and a Lady llurneil to Heath. Montreal, Can., Dec. 6.—On Sat urday, Rev. Father Murphy, editor of the Truo Witness, and famous lec turer on Papal infallibility, etc., and Rev. Father Lynch, a talented young priest, lately from Ireland, drove out to Black river, seven miles from Montreal, and stopped at the La Jennesse hotel. At night, after re tiring, a fire broke out in the hotel, and Father Murphy and Lynch and Madam Champaigns, a lady sleeping on the third floor, were burned to death. Two Brother* Killed. Nashville, Dec. 6.—A few nights since, four diguised men went to the house of Russell Allison, in Putnam county, and shot him dead. An offi cer and posse, in which was a broth er of tho deceased, arrested two brothers named Bresswell, one of whom shot at and killed J. J. Allison, a brother of the murdered man. ——— . Mexican AitaaxKliiK. New Orleans, Dec. G. — At San Diego, Nueces county, Texas, six Mexicans surrounded the dwelling house on Fly’s ranch, and shot and killed a Mr. Snyder and mor tally wounded Fly, who has since died. The attack was probably for purpose of robbery, since the de ceased had just sold a large stock of sheep. Tho assassins were driven off and succeeded in escaping across the river. Kerr Not Acceptable. New Orleans, Dec. o.—The nomi nation, in caucus, of Kerr for Speak er, is not well received here, since he is supposed to be hostile to the South ern Pacific enterprise and tho Gov ernment control of the levee system, both of which are generally favored here.
