Singular Development* in Regard! to th? Operations of ike lt ?aient it lng In Georgi*-The Henson why Tamer WM Ul ?cha.?-tc cd- the Disantes al of tifflcer McNeil. A Macon correspondent * of the Au gua ta Chronicle thrown soma light upon the secret history of the Turner affair, ?nd explains why lt was that tbe arrest-and examination were so long and so impropeily delayed. He says : lt will be recollected tnat when the woman Barris was recalkd to Atlanta while io charge ol your police, on her way to Augusta lot' ex? amination, sh? matte a full and explicit, confes? sion, m which she most positively and unequi? vocally implicated Turner' as the patty from whom she obtained the forged bills of the First National Bank of Mew Jetoey, Tne reason Of ibis recall, or Marian Harra to Atlanta for ex? amination there, has never been accounted for. I think that I can explain it fully. On tbe .Friday at comoon that Lieutenant Purcell left Atlant* wiso Hims it became aown to a few persons in the1 rina that one td or won id implicara luruir, on her exam itttlon in Augusta, .lullookand other friends f Turner determined to g\t Harris out ot aroell'spossession tor the parpoae*of infiu foing her to keep silent as ty Turner. This aid be best acomprahed by having her ?rht back to Ai tant*. Abb counsel were oyed ?nd sotus man publions of United s officials prenticed, and mo result was an ^.by telegraph from tm acting United ates msw hal directed to Ptroell at Union Ant, on the Gp->rgift Bailroad) directing him . itmxn immediately with bisjprtsoaer to At* uta. When the train reached Union Point ?t ?3 o'cloolc Friday night, Pureed found the telegram tliore. ordering him.tr) return. This rio did. On tho same ni?jrtr'h?fcico was given by telesrrapb to Turnor then io Macon, to ero' immediately to Atlanta and seo tho woman Harris. I'o decetvo Purcell, lim Murphy and others, who wer? really anxious to have? justice dono and lo soo tho woman and Turner com? mitted, they were iutormed that Turner had i beeu arrested, and that ho and tho womau Barris would be examined and oom milted on Monday. a In he meantime oilier United States offi? cials wore plaood in charge of Harris, and tho procosa ol' matiinulation began. Slurp lawyer? were taken to her in the mtorost of itir ner, and free and full communication was al? lowed between them and Hutris. What was said and done at thejajj. reported interviewa um! ?O?ts?ltatiOiiS can oe -readily divined by the reauitB which tb'lowed:' The ah m inves? tigation waa had and - Harria discharged on Straw bail for $1500. .Turnor returned to Ma eon fully secure that tho -storm had passed. Tbe arrest and examination of :Harris brought other parties on the scene.-' Ap. official ol the Treasury Department was close v watebiuar tho proceedings, and became fully satisfied that both Marris and Turner were legally guilty, and at his instance: Harria was again arrested and commuted. -, H ? had mad ? other discoveries wh^cli^.y^e-j imobrtani, and which required hie presence for some days in Macon. boveral months s nco some of the genuin; plates in the Treasury Department at Wash I ingron had been stolen. These were tho plates used for tho prin lng of tho tweiity-?ve cent and fifty cent postal currency. As your read era are aware the signatures to those notes are engraved with tho balance ot tho note. Tbe possession ot the gonuiue plates would enable the party having them to strike off real gt miine currency in every respect exactly lik? that is? sued by the Treasury Department. When these plates were stolen a reward of ten thousand' dollars waa offered by the government tor their recovery. Suspicion fell at the time upon the horde of carpet-baggers and seato wags then in Washington from the South urging further proscriptive measures against thia section. Deb olives were sot to work, and wini j pur BUing the trail the arrest of Hame ocourred. Developments growing out of her trial led to tho belief that Turner, bwayzj. and other Georgia Radioils, were the guilty part ICH. h f forts weie redoubled to secure the ' plates." lt was boon ditnoverod that a Jarae quantity of new currency of the twenty-five aud fifty oeut denomination had been pul in circulation du I ring the spring and early summer in Macon, i To ! his ciiy these detectives oame immedi? ately. For the purpose of cou: ea lips; .tUmii^bjaot. and movejni-nti., it was rieMO*?* tWf TftTr Seri's tears tb oui d be quio-ed. and that tbe oman Harrifl should ba closely confined a<d deprived of communication with ouisidern, aud particularly with Turner and Sw?yzj Biodgett .ind others of the ring. Very soon evidence ww oh'ainod which satisfied this officer thal the "plates" were m Macon and had b^on used here. A number of the bills issued here, were discovered, and hopes at ono time indulged that the place of secretion of the ptotes found pc uti . A large quantity of this currency had 'been put in circulation bv S wa zo. lt was thought that, the plates were worked in his office, and a trap had been set to cateh him, and which prom sed success. Just tben Marian Harris waa actin discharged from custody, apd the arrest of Turner could no longer be de? layed. Iheasnatter was precipitated bv this im? proper discharge of Harris, who, under the in? fluence, if not the positive directions ol Bol . lock and Blodgett, was thus set tree. . In the meantime 8wa>ze had become alarm? ed lest Turner should turn State's evidouco against him, and to head Turner off took sides in tbe prosecution against the latter-he, doubtless, calculating that if T. should blow' it on him after he bad arrayed himself against furner, that bia story would be attributed to a spirit of revenge and fall harmless to the ground. -.1 bave tba beat reason -for believing that the Postoffice and the Treasury Departments at Washington were satisfied of the guilt of bath Turner and Swayze, and that other leading Radicals in the State .known as tho Biodgett ring, were as deep in the mud SB Turner and Swayze were in tbe mire. The effect Upon the Radical party of a conviction of its most trust? ed leaders In this State would have been ter? ribly damaging. Such a catastrophe would r -in the party in the entire South and bring it into disgrace in the North anet West. Hence it was determined to relieve Turner aud stop the investigation against Swayze. To mo'c i-urely effect the latter purpose, the detective McNeil, who was working up the oise, was summarily dismissed from om JO. And it is said, and generally believed horo, that if Com? missioner Morrell had withstood the pressure brought to bear in Turner's favor and bound him over for trial, he, too, would have lost his place.

Looking hin steadily in the face, it occurs td you that fm Republican party, powerful aa it was, niigh have takon from his box the first intelhgen haokman on the street, and dono as well Grant's face has uo clearuesa or illumina.hu in it. more than had hie military policy re? breaking down rebellion.

Loni* XVI I made Monsieur D'Avarav a duke for helping him into his carriage. Then Grant imposes upon us with, other pretensions. He has published to an extravagant eccentricity bis love of quiet and retirement. No public mau of his station, since the beginning of the government has so constantly thrown himself in tho way of the people. A triumphal proces? sion throjgh the couutry every six months sinoe the war has boen tho least ot it. As Fresident, he is pushing his social preroga? tives to 1 he fullest bent. There have passed fourteen weeks since tho adjournment of Con? gress. Grant has passed the halt of them here, the rest iu social unbending elsewhere. They say he takes gaily to tbe dance at Long Branch, sliding .'through the figures more glibly titan at Annapolis, and West Point. This is very well; but the country is asking of him and his Cabinet a f?w aurions questions that it would be well to' 'hive, answered from Wash? ington, reception bills at tho seashore not withstanding. What-about Cuba, South Amer? ica, Virginia, the South, the Alabama matters, and political assassinations ? . . It is credible that tho Cabinet and tbe head of the nation, properly digesting these things, would not find much time to be absent from the capital. Anyhow, tho nation is anxious to see looming above the roby horizon of balls, routs, excursions, banquets, receptions and seaside frivolities, tho executive hand of a powerful Republican administration. We are hardly contented with this sphinx-like policy, lt m??y ba Delphic, as bhe'labarger said, but is less than Republican. The President would do well to aocept humility from the Cabinet fiasco, and consult the people henceforth. A member of tlu? Grant family is reported to have re? marked, just alter the nomination: "It was the General's desire not to Le made President by a party, but by the pepole." Perhaps here is a little light. Peru apa Gran' believes that the "era of ?odd feeling" may rct?r?,.sguip.iua* dor his administration; thar, be 'is a Colet sus undei whose lees all the people can walk.' '-' He need not deceive himself; it is not so. Ibo nation, just now, belongs emphatically to the party and policy that elected him. The administration is looking very honest und sat? isfactory in details.

ARCHBISHOP M'CLOSKEY ANB THE (ECUMENICAL COUNCIL. Tbe New York- Cathedral was crowded On Sunday last to hear the f irewell sermon of tho most Rev. Archbishop McOIoskey before his departure for Rome to take poi't in tho. Oou menical Council. In the course of his sermon ho made reference fp. tba approaching couuc-i in the following terms : In any great dinger to ber faith or her peo? ple, pontiffs aud bishops have gathered togeth? er from every portion of "the world, declaring with solemn emphasis what was the truth'' of God as distinguished from the inventions' and errors of men; what was right to practico; how to. gain eternal life, and what was most condu? cive to the happiness b th ot individuals and cf society at larne, la these councils were set forth, with a precision and a learning never equalled, the dogmas especially a.tacked, the morality which was weakened, and the laws of discipline which were overthrown. Three hun? dred years have passed since the world saw ono of tbese, tho last ? reat Council of Trent, in which, according to the confession ot Pro? testant historians, was gathered, a galaxy of learned, profound, pious, and able men, snob, as the World bad never seen before in a single council, to uphold the integrity of the faith, and to preserve tho peace and unity of the church. Since that time new errors and,, pew acts have arisen; new heresies, far more dangerous than those which existed then, have sprung np. but all having their origin in the errors and heresies condemned by the Council of Trent. The errors of the present day attask not simply. special truths of 'the Chore h. but the whole system of Christianity; they aim to overthrow the work of Christ on earth, the only great bulwark on earth for the protection of the truths revealed by God; to bring about confusion and anarchy, even into civil fife and private society. The vicar of Christ, in view of tbes? things, bas summoned another coun? cil to meet in Rome,. Its work will be the same as the last, to provide safeguards for religion, which - will conduce - to the welfare of the Church and the sanctification of souls. Il is not our work to indulge in vain conjectures as to what it is going to do; what it will discuss or determine,^ and with what "results. These arc only for ibe fature, and will be brought about in their own due time. We do know this much, that Christ is fa the Church, and He will provide protection for its faith. Now, in this day, He will do all things well.*" - ? ?. ip n m , THE OCEAN BANS. BOBBERY. ??J --"' A Man Arrested, in Portland, Stains, Confesses 'to being ? Participant. Tba Portland (Maine) Argus, of July 91, says: ... -? ...... : Our readers will remember the startling an? nouncement in June last that the Ocean Bank 1 of New York, situ?t .d'on Greenwich atreot. had been robbed ci nearlv all tbe contents of the vault-about $2,000 OOO-and there was no cloe to the perpetrators of the bold scheme. Detectives have since been at work on the caae. but no positive develop neu ts had, up, to recent? ly, been found to give .any clue o tbe money. Detectives, it is said; 'traced two Of the con? spirators east, and have made a pretty thorough search. Ou Thursday, Blake, the detective Who so successfully worked up the Auburn murder case last winter, thus- provino;, tbe old. adage, "set a rogue to catch a rogue," was ar? rested. ' History is simple and pretty concise in re? gard to tbe memorable robbery. He says be passed through this city on the 7th of Jane on bis way to New York to join bis pats, aud after the robbery was commuted he left the next week to return to Portland. He says tbe party numbered four or five that hired the basement under the bank, and pretended to be insurance agents from Ohio. On tbe morning above men? tioned, the features of the banking-room being familiar to tbe occupants below, an entrance to the same was made by boring with an auger through the intervening ASor. Once within reach of the vault it seems tuat it was au easy matter for tbe professionals to pick the lock, it not being one of the safest, as was afterward established. The small sates within were easi? ly blown open without attracting tbe atten? tion of the night watch, and their contents rifled. In their harry they did not get a lot of gold (30 OOO and gold bearing bonds to about the same value. After they got well olear of the building they found they bad with them $000.000 in certified oiieoks and railroad bonds that were of no use to them, so they sacrificed a trunk they had, and left this in the trunk on Blizabetb-street, where it was recovered. He does not sneak of the routes taken by the severa* confederates, or .chere they are, but thinks they are still in the country. He appears not to be very anxious snout himself, and says tbst all will go right wiatt him, and the money he has will dod its owners all right, and volunteers to say that ?one of the present holder?, will bo able to use the unlawful gains. Officer? are coming to make hts acquaintance. ; This story is good for What lt is worth, The ?barg?

Both crow* aio busy with a regular oourso ot training, and their movements aro chronicled by the newspapers with the greatest particularity. Tie i-perilt will bo hailed ni?, a na? tional defeat or victory, as the case'may be. -It is related of ilounvioff, tho famous Russian General, that once when m command of a camp, having discovered an alarming diminution in his candles, and having detec? ted thirteen Cossacks in the sot of stealing them, ho adopted a novel method of enriug their thieving propensity. At nightfall the Cossacks were ranged in front of the General's tent, stripped stark naked", compelled to stand erect, with their heads thrown hack, and obliged to Ui6 their mouths ?or candlesticks. By the glare of the lighted caudles so held, tho General and his staff indulged in their grog, and the whole army was permitted to see the ludicrous sight and chaff the poor can? dlesticks. -Count de Chate umllar J, who hap jost died in Paris, was, in his day, one .of the most brilliant men and dashing equestrians of France. It was ho wno one div rode'up'the steps of tho Jockey Club (then at the cornel of the Rue Dronot and Ba llevara) and played A game ot billiards on horseback. He rode for sometime a most vicious horse. 'A friend s-.nd: 'll yon rile that horse three months longer, I'll bet he kills you." The Count re? plied: "What do you bet?" "Twenty-five thousand francs." "Taneo." The Count felt in honor bound to his friend to ride the horse every day, and the horse showed himself to bo so very vic?ou3 that the Count had his cotna ' made and sent home, for he was eure be would require ' it before long. His wife (who had long been .extremely uneasy lest his horse should kill bim.) seeing her husband look upon the horse as dangerous, aa she herself considered him, no Boonor saw the coffin placed in her hus? band's dro*Bthg rocm, than she weal'to the stable armed with a pair of pistols sud phot the dangerous steed through the head; On one occasion the. Count was asked by a friend, a Marquise, to see ber to her carriage. They' wer? at a ball. Go ins: down stairs somebody trod on her dress and toro it. . She asked for a pin. The Count took f rom his scarf il diamond pin worth $600 and presented to her. (She de? clined, saying: ' Oh, Count, it is entirely too valuable." "Is that the only objection to the pin?" "Certainly." This word was fto sooner out of tbe Marquise's mouth than he. bibke off the diamond, threw it out of the neighboring window, and gave the golden pin to her. -Duels betweon students at Gjrma-i Uni? versities are generally fought with swords, and rarely have a fatal termination. Sometime*,, however, pistols are chosen for tbe weapons, and the combat assumes a moro deadly char? acter. The last duel which took place mani ted in the death of ono of the participants and cre? ated great excitement in the vicinity. Tbe cor-* respondent of a New York paper, gives the fol? lowing particulars of the affiir. Hs says : A number of Lei psi c students of tho corps ?of the ..Westfilon" were sitting in tbo Cw"Tae J, together with another stud jut, Grossmann, of Wiesbaden, who did not belong to their num? ber, Wheu a number or students-whose names are Count beckers, Prince von Bentneim and Yon Gablenz-returning from ' a din? ner, entered the room, the latter (Yon Gablenz) unwittingly stumbled against a member of the "Westfalen." Upon the chal? lenge of the latter, Voa Gablenz immediately begged pardon, but Grosamann, notwithstand? ing, suddenly sprang from his seat and gave Yon Gablenz a box on the ear. Yon Gablenz and bis companions then returned the assault in asimilar manner, and the members of the. "Westfalen" and Grossmann were quickly put out of the place, after tbe latter, however, bad been first challenged by Prince von Bentheim and Count Bookers to a sword duel, and by Yon. Gablenz, who cannot fence, to a duel with pistols. The latter was accepted and on tho morning of the 1st of July the duel took place on the beautiful Rosenthal, near Leipsic. At the first fire, Grossmann, who is a perfect novico at shooting, was wounded in the foot. The seconds thea attempted to bring about a re c?nciliaton, and Yon Gablenz deciarod himself ready. to withdraw his challenge if Grossmann would apologize for the insult given. This Grosemaon refuted to do, and afc the second fire Yon Gablenz received a shot from Gross mann in the brain, and immediately fell to the ground unconccious. His seconds, Prince von Bentneim and Count Beckers, immediately took the wounded student to the etty hospital, and Grosamann, who ii the sou of the Ober procurator of Wiesbaden, took at once to flight. The physicians attempted in vain to remove -tbe ball from You Gablenz'a brain, and on tbe 2d of July, while his fatbor and mother were standing by his bedside, be died. Grossmann bas since not been heard off. '.*'** ' ~JL queer story is told of a blind beggar in '?fflifiy. wn^ fjf^?ays, tff p?^^ix?jMm^iM til a gateway on the Boulevard Sebastopol. A certain Parisian ofton passed this 'way, and was in the habit of giving bia) a penny-a twp gous!piece; but the other day, by mistake, he dropped into the poor fellow's hat. a double louie of for ty francs, dome time afterwards he discovered his mistake, and Off .'ie ran to tbe Boulevard Sebastopol to get ba :;; his money. No beggar was there, but in his place a crip? ple. "Where is the blind man ?" said tbe be* ne volent man. "Do you mean Monsieur Ben? jamin?" replied tbe cripple. ' Ho bas just gone-he has gone to his house to breakfast." ii far?" "Only a couple of steps m .tbe Bue du Petit Carreau." Away went tbe in? quirer to the address indicated whioh be soon found. "Monsieur Benjamin here ?" he says to tbe concierge " All right ; second floor; door to tbe right;" waa tbe an? swer. Be mounted tba stairs, rang at tbe .door. A nicely' dressed servant carno to open it. ," Monsieur Benjamin io?" ' Yes, sir.' Our friend ia shown into an elegant ante-room, through willoh ene conkl see into a dining-room, where there was a table admirably appointed with fine white linen, crystal and silver. It seemed as if there roust be an error; but there was little time to consider; the maid came quickly to say that Monsieur Benjamin would be glad to sse. bis visitor, sud at tho same iastant she opened the ddor of an- apartment furnished in Turkish fashion, in whioh the blind man, smiling, was seen sitting on a divan. ' Ton wished to speak tome?' be said. "Yes, Indeed, sir," replied our friend, rather embarrassed; "I sm very jorry to trouble you, but the fact is-I believe I rather think-that in passing along tbs Bmlevard Sebastopol this morning, I gave you oy mistake two louis for two sons," Tho blind mau said, with the utmost coolness, ' That is quite possible; I hate not looked at tb? ?ash yet; and if there la a mistake, nothing is easier than to rectify it."

TUE COMING SOL Alt ECLIPSE. Interesting Part?cula?re, The polar eclipse of Saturday next will bo total along a narrow track of only about one hundred and forty miles wide, extending in a southeasterly direction, and more than six thousand miles long? It' begins in Sibpria, where it takes a northeasterly ooaree till it crossses a little south of Behring's Straits, after which it turns its course southeasterly, traversing portions of Alaska, thence into British Amerioa, and through Montana. Dako? tan, Nebraska, Iowa, Missouri, Illinois, In? diana, Virginia, Kentucky, Tennes'seo and North Carolina, ending in the Atlantic Ocean, off the coast of the last-mentioned State. In most parts of the United Sta: es the"observa? tion will only cover five-sixths of tbe sun's diso. It will be only par iai in Charleston, and will oontmue from flvo o'clock until a few min? utes before seven o'clock P. M. lt is paid by Wasbingtou astronomers that "no total eclipse of tbe sun has beou visible in any considerable portion ot this country since 1831. and none will bo visible after this -year during the present century." In theso times the aslromers, instead of waiting patiently at their observations for tbe eclipse to approach tbem, which it may do i i the bourse of centu? ries, have acquired tbe habit of taking their observations to the central line of tho echpsc. On this occasion scientific parties will po to varions pomtn alon- the hne, some sent by the United States Government and some by pri? vate enterprises, to study interesting problems relative to the suire physical constitution. To those who aro able to visit tho line, or within the limits of visibility of the total phase, it will be a spectacle, if the sky is olear, worth 'travelling a great distance to beholi. The Riverside Magazine for August bas for a leading 'illustration a tjnted representation of the ap? pearance of the earth and sky at the time of the total obscuration. From tho letter-press description we toke the following sketch of this mont wonderful eight >. ? "For the convenient)- of1 such of our readers as live wit hm tbe bo. t of country referred to on the fourth page of this number, where will bo witnessed on tno 7tb instant, the total eclipse of the sun, we give a snort description of < he phenomena to be expected. Perhaps eomo may bave sufficient presence of mind tb make brier notes of what they see. If so. we shall be happy to receive the resal*s of such obser? vations tor comparison, and possible publica? tion in a future number. As regarda the ap? pearance- under the heads tbiee and five, a spy-glass or um a ll telescope will be necessary to reveal them to satisfaction. 1. When the sun is more than three-fourths hidden by the dark d sc of tbe moon, a per? ceptible clon-* *? per .ute c??? aro?nd. Soon alter the sky appears to de? scend, the Horizon to contract, tbe temperature ot tbe air falls, birds cease their singing, flow? ers close, an unearthly greenish and reddish lieht is imparted to portions of thu sky. a sud? den darkness ensues and everything weare a mysterious and gloomy aspect. a. r__ui odia tel v befoi" tho last trace-(tf th a san's disc disappears, the a vrai snadow off tbe moon in the air may be detected rapidly approaching fiona tbe west like.a dark calaum or sombre cloud. To witness this impressive sight care must be exercised, lest, iu the ex? citement of the moment, the swiftly approach? ing shadow be unheeded. 3. The last thread of light from the ann's disc sometimes appears to separate into little grains or beads b.foro its total disappearance. This phenomena has received the name of "Bai>y Beads." from the noted astronomer wbo first witnessed it. 4. Instantly on the extinction of the san will be sean the grandest feature of tbs eclipse tbe corona, or crown of light, issuing on all Sdes apparently from the ? pur pie-black diso or ie moon, though tn reality fiona the sun. lt is the atmosphere of the BUB rendered visible by the absence of the overpowering sunlight. As the light is dazzlingly white, s piece of smoked glass will enable y JU to survey it with? out tbe inconvenience which, might otherwise arise. 5. In the corona, and issuing also apparent? ly from the dark moon, there will appear seve? ral rose-colored flames projecting beyond tbe gloomy disc, perhaps a tenth of the diameter of the moon. They, too, belong to the oun, and are demons tra ted by the spectroscope to be incandescent hydrogen: With every eclipse they vary in size, number, shape, position and depth of oolor. ?> ? 6. Planets and large stars are often noted doting total eclipses by those who have previ? ously studied their positions ow a celestial map. As the darkness hardly exceeds that of s moonlight night, they are not always readily found in the two or three minutes of gloom that attend the entire obscuration of the sun. By a little study of the map at the commence? ment of this number one may b^ able tore cognize the most cons; iouous planets and stars that will be visible. When the ann reappears the phenomenon of Baily's Beads sho?iq be again looked for this tim? on the riant side of the moon's diso. The awful shad >w will afterwards be seen sail? ing rapidly away in the air to the eastward. Then follow the chano-AS nf color in the sky and landscape, the rising of the thermometer and la general awakening of nature, and the wonderful exhibition ?B over,,, ? , ; wm iv. i . a BP 11111 w ?
