'Reiint'ir Wilson l liis morning presented
to Yic<-- ; President Colfax ,'thc nogro mem-.
■l»ers of the Georgia Legislature, ordered
lie re by BuHock. The dusky legislators
disked Mr. Colfax to save them from* the
Rebels, of whom Uoy profess*.*] to ho in
great terror. Mr. Colfax replied that In*
■would gladly do anything in his power to
aid them, but be did not think the Legis
lature of the State bad the 'poww to pels
petuate itself, us they desired.
Senator Wilson introduced an amend
ment to the Georgia bill this morninsr,
providing for the perpetuation of the State
Legislature for two years beyond the time
for Which it was legally elected. Pome
roy spoke in favor of the amendment
Mr. Edmunds, briefly, iipoppositien. MY,
Williams mado a strong argument in sup*
p<-*r‘t of the 'Bingham amendment. Mr.
{Stewart, wb'o has opposed the Bingham
■amendment principally on the ground
that it placed Congress in the position ol
ordering an election in Georgia (though,
in fad, it only enforces the requirements
*>f the Constitution of the State), fund
no difficulty in supporting Mr. Mil.-<n's
amendment, which is in direct vio'atien ol
the State Constitution, and an arbitrary
and unwarranted stretch of power on the
part of Congress.
Mr. Conklin# put a question to Mr.
Stewart, which that gentleman 'evaded in
so ingenious a manner as to extort the
most rTithosiTslio admiration of the sar
castic New Yotkijl, Mr. Howe also made
some inquiries which took the speaker
Rome ivhat aback, and to which his replies
were by no means satisfactory. Mr. Stew
ait concluded with a tirade of .abuse
against the _i>eopl<? of Georgia, which ai*
cx-Unicn soldier arid ardent Republican
declared to be simply infamous. Mr.
Shurz followed with a vigoious protest
against the proposed perpetuation of the
Legislature- lie referred to the question
of party ascendency, and said that in this
Instance it was proposed to maintain
Rapnbliertn ascendency in one Slat*; but
febooe who had read American history with
profit would know that just by this means
was ascendency in the nation lost. With
reference to the colored people, he said he
pursued the course, he did for th“ir wel
fare, and pictured lmw much worse their
condition would be if the unconstitutional
measures proposed should go into effect.
His remarks were listened to with great
interest by all the Senators present, and
on concluding he received the congratula
tions of his friends. Drake, followed
with a blood and thunder speech about
murder, ku.klux, black masks, &e. It
was evident his imagination had become
disordered from reading dime novels, and
so the infliction was borne patiently. Af
ter considerable fillibustering on Drake’s
amendment, the Senate adjourned with
out taking a vote.
A Greesnboro correspondent of the
Constitution, under date of the 14th,
writes as follows’ Yesterday, the 13th
instant, occured a fatal rencontre between
Messrs. A. H. Evans and Jesse Nunn,
of Taliaterro county, in which Evans, with
a rifle gun, shot Nunn through the thigh,
cutting a large artery therein, and killed
him within a few hours. The homicide oc«
curred at or near Evans’ house, about
four miles from Crawfordville. Evans is
still at large.
Mr. Carlton Cole, dr , and Mr. James
Ralston had a personal difficulty, at the
Lainer House, in Macon, on Saturday, in
which pistols were freely used. Five
shots were fired, three by Cole and two
by Ralston, tho latter received a serious
wound in tho loft side of his face, the ball
passing around the jaw and under the ear,
lodging in the back of Ids neck, from
which it was extracted. The Telegraph
pronounced the wound not necessarily
fatal.
Pliooting Affray.—W« Darn {hat a
il fficuHy happened yesterday, the 14ib,
at the plantation of Mrs. E. A. Robinson
betveon Mr. J A. P. Robinson and Mr,
Pricket. They exchanged several shots,
and we understand that Mr. McCoy also
shot at Bi ickef, and is supposed that he
put the ball into th* breast of Brieltet.
Mr. Robinson was shot in the foot. Tie
wound of Brieket is quite dangerous, if
nut mortal.— Southern Recorder .
Military Doings —Yesterday four very
clever cit*z«>nft from one of the adjoining
counties, were brought to this city, by a
squad of soldiers, and incarcerated in Me-
Per. on’s Baracks. They said that they
were entirely ignorant of the charge
against them.— lntelligencer.
Remarkable Death. —W c learn from
the Rome Courier of a most remarkable
death which occurred in that vicinity on
Saturday last. A negro was working he.
neatti a bank of dirt—the dirt broke off,
fell on him and crushed him. His heart
was shot out from his body and thrown
out to a distance of sixty-two feet (by
measure) from him. His lungs and liver
were scattered between lorn and Ids heart
and bis body jyas completely crushed by
the dirt. When the dirt was thrown off,
it was found that he v as broken to pieces.
We warrent. says the Courier, no such
death had ever been recorded.
An Indiir lady couldn’t stand the abuse
any longer, m she chastened her husband
with a kerosene lamp, which exploded
and burned the house to the ground. He
had been persecuting her by refusing to
let her go tn a masquerade ball with u
chap he couldn’t depend on.

A Letter fi om Mr. Tmo, Giving Valua

.Matters.
Madison,. March 18, 1870.
Editor Constitution l proceeded to
Macon, as ordered by the Executive
t ommittee, and in. Company with Sec
retary Lewis took a complete list of
all the machines and implements left'
over from the fair, and by the kindness
of Colonel White, Superintendent of
the Macon & Western Railroad, these
goods were transported to Atlanta./?**,
and will be stored at the old market
house, where tho office of tire &ecietary
is now located, to await the orders of
the owners. The freight on these arti
cles has not been paid, and must bo
settled before the goods will be deliv
ered. The Society is abundantly able
to settle all outstanding claims, and
will do so as soon as these freights and
other property now in the hands of the
Society is disposed of, The medals
and diplomas have not been received
by the Secretary as yet, but are ex-,
pected soon. It is proposed to have in
Atlanta, some time during April, an
other agricultural convention, composed
of delegates from e\ery county society
in the State, for the discussion of agri
cultural questions. Secretary Lewis
informs me two of the railroads have
agreed to pass three delegates from
each county society in the States both
ways free, and when all have agreed to
the proposition, a call for the conven
tion will be made. I respectfully sug
gest that a programme be immediately
made; speakers and essayists' bo ap
pointed to take part in the exercises,
and that each paper read become the
property of the Society, and, if worthy,
bo published in tho annual.proceedings
of the Society. B. 11. True.
Wiiat Free Postage Costs tiie
People.—The Postmaster General has
returns lrom 494 post offices for Janu
ary, showing the number of free letters
sent therefrom to be 666,901 ; postage
thereon at regular rates, §117,399 73.
Weight of free printed matter sent,
346,194 pounds ; postags thereon at
regular rates, §42,334 36 ; total cost
of free matter sent from 494 offices,
§159,734 -09. He says it is safe to
estimate tliht if full returns had been
received from all the offices for Janua
ry, the aggregate amount would exceed
§200,000, or at the rate of §2,400,000
per annum.
This argument :s good only to a cer
tain extent. If postage had been paid
on this mator, no doubt the government
would have made or saved the Sum
stated. But it is unsafe to conclude
that the Department would actually re
ceive additional amount were franking
privilege abolished for in that event,
this immense quantity of matter now
franked, or the greater portion of it,
would never find its way into the mails.
Still we would like to see tho franking
system done away with. It is a cost
to the government in making its mail
contracts, and is shamefully abused in
the hands of congressmen.
The Courio a- J ourn al on Avery,-
The Courior-Journal copies Avery’s Sa
vannah dispatch and thus pays bin com
pliments to the gentleman .
The fellow is a fool as well as a knave.
llis dispatch is an exceedingly weak in
vention of the enemy. When Bullock
hired him as a tool for tho manufacturer of
slanders upon the people of Georgia, Bul
lock certriuly had a right to expect him
to do much better service. Ilis story,
although bristliqg as it does with rebel
d—ns, is absolutely not worth the cost of
its transmission to Washington, The most
consummate tool in Congress and wo a!!
know how ineffably stupid lie is, must
have seen through the thing at a glance.
The shallow knave does r.ot say that the
community which tolerates his presence
with a more than Christian forbearance,
has ever inferferred with him, or with
anybody else, in any shape or form lie
dare not bring a dir 'Ct charge against
the people there, fearing, as tho miserable
paltroon evidently does, that ihero may
be a mistake in the report that the days of
tar and feathers are over in Geoigia.
.And it is through the influence of such
vagabonds as this Avery, of G orgia, and
Fletcher, of Tennessee, that Congress is
constantly induced to perpetrate crones
which can find adequate punishment this
side of death, glad there are people t'-o,
who expect the country to live and grow
and prosper under such a slate of things
for all “time t.) come.

Carpenter decided yesterday that a note

r iiiE Escape of Yergkr.— E. M.
Yerger escaped from the jail at Jackson
Miss., on Sunday morning last, between
4 and 5 o'clock, under the following cir
cumstances : He bad been allowed the
privilege of the jail yard having piven
his pi. role not to attempt to escape.
But on Saturday, when his case was
further postponed, he withdrew his no
tice, and stated that lie would get away
at the first opportunity. Xt was the
intention of the Sheriff to confine him
in one of the cages upstairs that night,
hut ou reaching the jail he found Yer
ger evidently deeply intoxicated by
liquor furnished by his friends outside
therefore, he placed a deputy sheriff in
the jail to remain up and flitch him.
About 4 o’clock, A. M., the prisoner
sent his watcher out for coffee at the
market, and during his absence placed
a lime barrel by the gate, on top of this
an empty dry goods box, then the wa
ter bucket, thus he very easily scaled
the fence. Every effort has been made
to secure his capture, but thus far they
have been of no ava.l.
Look Out, Hancock . r — The new ar
my bill just passed by the House of
Uepresetatives makes a decided reduc

officers of the army. One section pro
vides that the'igmmber of Major Gener
als shall be reduced to three, the presi
dent to drop two out of the five now on
tho army list. The five are Hal leek
Meade, Thomas, Hancock, and Scho

ocrat and a very possible and formida

well say : Lookout Hancock. If that
gallant officer ia wise, he will commence
at once to hunt another situation. 11 is

Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral,
For Diseases of tho Throat and Lungs,
such as Coughs, Colds, Whooping
Cough, Bronchitis, Asthma,
and Consumption.
Probably never before in the whole history of
medicine, lias any thing won so widely and so
deeply upon the coniidence of mankind, as tins
excellent remedy for pulmonary complaints.
Through a long series of years, and among most
of the races of men it has risen higher and higher
in their estimation, as it has become better known.
Its uniform character and power to cure the va
rious affections of the lungs and throat, have
made it known as a reliable protector agauist
them. While adapted to milder forms oi disease
and to young children, it is at the same time the
.most effectual remedy that can be given for incip
ient consumption, and the dangerous affections
of the throat and lurks. Asa x>rovi6ion against
sudden attacks of Vrvnp• it should be kept on
hand in every family.,and indeed as all are some-*
times subject to coh'ls and coughs, all should bo
provided with this antidote for them.
Although settled Cnnmimjitimi is thought in
curable, still great numbers of cases where the
disease seemed settled, have been completely
cured, and the patient restored to sound health
by tlie Cherry Pectoral. So complete is its
mastery over the disorders of the Lungs and
Throat, that the most obstinate ol them yield to it.
When nothing else could reach them, under tho
Cherry Sectoral they subside and disappear.
Si'nf/rrs mul Public Spcahevs laid great
protection from it.
Asthma is alwaystrebeved and often tt holly
cured by it.
Bronchitis is generally cured liy taking tho
Cherry Pectoral in small and frequent doses.
So generally arc it* virtues known, that wo
need not publish the certificates ol them here, or
do more than assure tho public that its qualities
are fully maintained.

For Favor and Aguo, Intermittent Fever,

from malarious, marsh, or miasmatic
poisons.
As its name Implies, it docs Cure, and docs not
fail. Containing neither Arsenic, CuinhiQi Bis
muth, Zinc, nor any oilier mineral or poisonous
substance whatever, it in nowise injures any pa
tient. The number and importance ol its cures
in t.ho-ngue dist ricts, m e literally beyond account,

effected In obstinate eases, and where other rem

Is an excellent remedy, producing many truly
