—The Montgomery Advertiser re
ports the arrest of several officers of
Macon county, and others, for trying
and punishing a negro violater of the
laws. They are Probate Judge Holt,
who tried the negro; Sheriff Felts,
who arrested him ; W. C. Brewer, who
defended him; and Messrs. Win. Ed
munds, Lee Martin, Clarence Aber
crombie and M. Smith, who were wit
nesses in the case. They were ar
rested by Deputy Marshal Bandolph,
on warrants issued by a United States
Commissioner, and carried to Mont
gomery, where they were to have
been examined yesterday. The Ad
vertiser justly remarks: “What rapid
strides centralization is making,
when petty officials of the United
States claim the power thus to re
view the decision of a State Court. It
is a principle its old as the English
law that a judge shall not beheld lia
ble, either eivilly or criminally, for a
judicial act, but in this day of so-call
ed progress, those safeguards wtiich
our forefathers thought necessary to
the preservation of the liberties of the
citizens, are held as nought if by dis
regarding them party ends oan be ad
vanced.’’
Nile Didn't (tare lo Nit Down.
She went, into the badly crowded
horse-ear at the junction of Congress
and Whitaker streets. Several gen
tlemen bounced from their seats and
offered her a place in which to seat
her lovely form —but her invariable
reply was, “No, thank you, I prefer
to stand.”
When the conductor took her fare,
she smilingly remarked:
“Corner of Liberty.”
“O. K.,” laconically replied the con
ductor.
Beaching Liberty, the driver put
on his brake too quickly and stopped
the car with a sudden jerk. Tins
compelled her to sit down, but on the
bottom of the car. She made one or
two ineffectual efforts to rise, when
several gentlemen rushed up to as
sist her. They could ruise her
entirely off the floor of the car,
but she seemed to have lost
all use of her lower members, and,
overcome by her exertions, fainted
on the spot. Four men rushed off
for a doctor, the conductor bolted
into an adjacent drug store for re
storatives, and the driver holding on
to his lines looked on and thought
it served her right for not taking a
seat like a civilized woman.
Before the return of the conductor
she regained eonsciouiuess, and sit
ting up as well as she could, reached
behind her and extracted from some
mysterious portion of her person,
one after another, seventeen pins.
Then she shook out the ample back
folds of her pin-back dress, arose,
and went out of the car. The last
seen of her, she w T as meandering
down Liberty street with seven boys
hollering at her, and thirteen yards
of mohair plaid flouncing in the
wind behind her.—Savannah News.
It is intimated that the reason why |

TUE RADICAL GOVERNOR REFUSES TO COM
MISSION TWO OF THE NEW RADICAL
JODGES.
Charleston, Dec. 21.— Governor
Chamberlain has refused to issue the
commission of Whipper, and ex-Gov
ernor Moses, the obnoxious Judges
elect, giving the following state
ment of his reasons:
I decline to sign the commissions
of A. J. Whipper and J. J. Moses,
Jr., elected as Judges of the Circuit
Court of this State by the General
Assembly, on the 16th inst., for terms
to begin August 26th, 1876. By the
Constitution of the State, the Judges
of the Circuit Court are to bo elected
for terms of four years. By a series
of adjudicated cases in the highest
court of this State extending from
1821 to 1872, it has in my judgment
been determined that officers elected
under the provisions of law similar
to this provision of the present Con
stitution, are entitled to hold their
offices for the full term prescribed
by the Convention or laws under
which the elections were held. It
follows that the terms of the present
incumbents of the offices to which
the above named persons claim to
have been elected on the 16th inst.,
will not expire until after another
general election of members of the
General Assembly. The present
General Assembly has not tho right
to elect their successors. While in
some cases presenting similar le
gal questions it may not be required
of the Governor fo decline to issue
commission, the circumstances of
the present case compel nte to this
course.

and fired several shots, ono ball pass
ing tiirough the coat of a brakesman
and glancing off. and another entered
his leg, breaking it. They then held
a revolver close to the conductor’s
face and snapped it, but it failing to
go off, they closed in on him and
beat him in a shameful manner.

Toronto, Dec. 22.—1n the Legisla
ture last night, tho estimates for 1876
were discussed. One item was of
79,000 dollars for immigration. Hon.
M. McDougald said that too many
mechanics came to this country dur-.
iug tho present depression of trade.
Ontario, he said, puid more than was
necessury on this branch, and ho
moved that in view of the depressed
conditions manufacturing industry
and tho surplus of labor seeking em
ployment, it was the opiuion of tho
House that it was inexpedient to
offer special encouragement to im
migration for 1876.
Hon. Mr. Crooks said the policy of
tlie Government was to encourage
the immigration of agricultural la
borers and domestic servants only,
and he believed employment could
be found during the winter for 22,000
of theso classes. The Government
intended to continue the same policy
iu this matter.
After some further discussion Mr.
McDougal’s motion was lost, and the
item passed.
The House then concurred in all
votes required for the public service
for t lie coming year.

hut have ono entire floor for HOOT* and

from ttrst bauds, aud can always offer their cus
tomers Goods at tho very BOTTOM PRICES.
Their trade is now extended through Geor
gia, Alabama aud Florida, and as it is found that
they sell mauy Goods at New York prices without

creasing. They propose to sell any Goods at
New York prices aud freight added, and they in
vite an examination and comparison of prices, by
all persons wishing to purchase, nud give assu
