VOLUME XI.-NUMBER 1823. CHARLESTON, SATURDAY MORNING, OC fOBER ?8, 1871. EIGHT DOLLARS A YEAR. THE UP-COUNTRY TYRANNY TUL KC-KLVX FRISOXERS IS CO? LUMBIA.. Their Condition and Spirits. The Columbia Pho?nix of yesterday says : We found ia the city jail, yesterd *y, six United ?lates prisoners, irom Union They are Messrs. J. Rodger and his son Lewis, F. M. Farr. Wm. Steen, T. J. Grier, and a colored mao, John Dawkins. They were all arrested for "murder and conspiracy" under the Ku Klnx act, upon the affidavit ot a colored man. We conversed with Messrs. Rodger, Farr and Steen, who are highly intelligent gentlemen. They affirm their entire innocence, and say that all thev ask is a fair trial and a prompt hearing. They were astonished at their arrest. They have been well treated by the sheriff and Jailor. We did not have the opportunity of seeing the prisoners from Spartanbnrg. We know that the Union pri? soners are treated with due consideration. They are very cheerlul, and are confident ol establishing their innocence. They ho?:e to be brought up before the United States com? missioner. The Urited States marshal thinks they will be brougut up as soon a9 the com? missioner returns to the city. It seems that heyli absent at a time when he ought to be at hin post. TUE ARRESTS IS TORE. Names or the Prisoner*-The Effect on Bannet?- Fa 'se Report of a Fight The Confessing Culprits. We take from the Yorkville Enquirer, o? the 26th instant, the following account oi the ac? tion ot the military authorities under the proc ?^LiEiu?on suspending the privilege ot the writ JT^? habeas corpus: Oa Thursday last, the military authorities at this place commenced making arrests. Several citizens of the town were arrested while in the pursuit ot their avocations, and many per? sons from the country, while in town on busi? ness, were also detained and lodged in prison. About the same hour that the arrests com? menced in town the military began to more, squadrons and cavalry marching out In various directions, for the the purpose of arresting those in the country against whom accusa? tions have been made, for violations ot the "Ku-Klux" and "enforcement"' acts of Con? gress. On Friday, Saturday, and Sunday squads of soldiers were returning at all hours, having in their custody citizens ot the county, embracing men in all stations, and occasion? ally amongst the number would be found a negro, of which class rive are now under arrest. The total number now In Jail at this place ls seventy-nine, ot whom two are negroes, and confined In the guardhouse at the military camp are also three negroes-Thad. Archer and Reuben, Coins, of the town, and Samuel Slmril, of the county. It may be proper here to state that very few arrests have been made after night, the larger nufober having been made In the day time, and, so far as we have been able to learn, no show of resistance to] authority has been made. As may well be supposed, the Jail ls very much crowded, In consequence ot which the prison accommodations are being Increas? ed by Atting the second story o? the building for that purpose. There is no disposition on the part of the officials in charge to treat the prisoners with undue harshness, and we have beta requested by some of the prisoners to say that their treatment has been as kind and as mild as they could expect. NAMES OF TUE PRISONERS. The following list embraces all who are con? fined in the Jail up to the hour of our going to press : A. F. McConnell, John A. Graham, Cm. Robinson, J. C. Chambers, Henry Wallace J. H. Wood, J. Pink Herndorn, J. L Plexlco, R. A. Black, J. P. Warllck, Dr. J. B. Hanter, J. B. Miller, Samuel Wood, D. H. Carroll,! E. F. Bell, E. S. Ramsay, 8. J. Harvey, 8.

Spencer. ?Negroes. tDlscLarged. These arrests have all been made by the military authorities, without lormal warrants, and lt ls expected that a preliminary examina? tion ot each prisoner will be had before the United States commissioner, when, if In the opinion of the commissioner the evidence fails to sustain the charge, the prisoner will be released. In the examination before the commissioner, the accused will be allowed counsel. Tbe examination will be public, and conducted in the manner of all legal proceed? ings before a commissioner. Attorney-g?n? ?ral Akerman and D. T. Corbin, district attor? ney of this State, are here, and, we are in? formed, will remain until the conclusion ot the investigation. No time has yet been fixed for the examination, so lar as we can learn. .Of the charges ot their nature against any %the accused, we are unable to give any In? formation. The authorities are reticent in re? gard to their movements and intentions, and we can only publish facts as they transpire, deeming conjectures and sensational para? graphs-such as will flood many of the pa 8ere at a distance-as quite superfluous, and i tendency injurious. KU-KXCX CONFESSIONS. We learn, from what we deem a reliable source, that near forty persons In this county haw made confessions to the authorities here ol their connection with the uKu-Klux." NO FIGHTING. The reported collision between a party ot citizens and the United States soldiers ata Elace known as Pea Ridge, near the llnedivid lg York and Union Counties, is entirely un? founded. No difficulty of any kind has oc? curred since the military authorities com? menced making arrests. THE EFFECTS OF MARTIAL LAW. The wholesale arrests made by the military In this county have hal a very depressing in? fluence on business and industrial pursuits generally, and we presume such will be the case throughout the entire section of the State embraced In the proclamation of the President, Crops remain in the field unhar? vested, and on account of the general feeling of insecurity, business is nearly at a stand-still, 'While a large number oi persons have lett the county, rather than to incur the unpleasant and uncertain consequences ot arrest. The future of our section, we are tree to confess, is now more gloomy than it has been at any time since the close ol the war. THE SOFT TALK OF COLONEL MERRILL. In view of the general panic which prevails throughout this section, and the uncertain state of the public mind, produced by the sus? pension ol' the wnt ot habeas corpus, and the fact that the military authorities are making wrests, in order to allay the excitement as much as possible, we have had (au interview with the authorities to learn to what extent ^Vtvsta might be expected to be made. Colo? nel M'Trili. the officer in command, assured as that no improper arrests would be made; and that any person who felt himself Innocent of violating the enforcement act or the Ku Klux act, need entertain no fears of being molested in any way by the soldiery or the 4 marshal. We trust this declaration by Colo? nel Merrill will have the effect to measurably restore confidence in the minds of many who naturally enough are apprehensive at the unusual stride made by the chief executiveof the nation to arrest transgressors ot the law; and that If business cannot resume its wonted channels in our midst, that at least the entire populace will not become terror-stricken and dismayed. Let us hope for the .best. TERRORISM IX CHESTER. Presentment of the Grand Jury-The President's Allegations Without Foundation. We find in the Chester Reporter the present? ment of the grand Jury of the county which disproves entirely the charges contained in the Presidential proclamation. The grand jury (six whites and six blacks) say : In consequence of our having seen iu the public press a proclamation of the President ot the united States stating, in substance, among other things, that public justice could not be administered by either the State or Federal judiciary or the officers thereof, and the rights of citizens could not be protected by the ordinary means heretofore provided tor such purposes, and not being cognizant of a single case In which an executive officer of the State or Federal Government has been resisted by either an Individual or combination of indi? viduals in this county, we thought proper to Inquire of the commandant of this post for any facts that he might have ascertained which would tend to verify the allegations contained in the said proclamation. THE SO-CALLED KL' KLUX CASES. The only facts which the said commandant communicated to us was notices to two freed? men, one of which is dated August 22d, signed "K. K. K.." commanding the freedman to leave the State in two days from the date thereof: the other, without date, signed by "K. K. K.,'" saying that he was a traitor, and that he would receive a traitor's doom in two days, with the picture of the coffin draw J thereon. These two lreedmen were brought before us and examined by us, and their testi? mony is submitted with this report,from which it will appear that no violence bas been done to either of them, who still reside at their for? mer places of abode. We also examined seve? ral other freedmen, to wit: Steven Gray, Fleming Gray, Guy Owens and Isaac Castles, and also Abner Holley, who depose lu sub? stance as follows: Steven Gray save that Jerry Walker, Charles Smith,-Dunlap and Beamguard, while, and Green Davis, colored, visited his place, about the 1st of March, in disguise; they did not find him at home, but carried off bis guu-a Confederate musket. Fleming Gray says hts house was visited, about the 1st of March, by Green Davis, color? ed. James Gladden and Lawson Dunlap, dis? guised; they entered his house; they did no Injury, but threatened him. Guy Owens says that about the 1st of March three persons, dis? guised, unknown to bim entered his house, took him out and whipped him well, and he believes that Adam Hardin knows who they are. Isaac Castles says that, on the 24th of February last, he was visited bv Garland Smith, William Carter, Walker Smith. Rhett McCollum and Isaac Prysock, colored, all dis? guised; that they took bold of him and carried Elm out of his house and then called for "Number Two," when he made his escape; shots where fired alter bim, but he does not j know how many; when they came they said they wanted his gun. but he told them that it was not there-that ne bad left it at the mes teriag ground. Abner Holley says that he lives on Mr. David Pendergrast's place, and that be was visited, about the 2d of March, by Sersons In disguise-how many in number he oes not know-and that he was struck thirty nine lashes by three persons, whom he be lleves to be Dr. Winiam McCollum, Hugh Pendergast and John Chalk, and that the said lashes were inflicted with the strap of his gun. ONLT TWO MURDERS-A SOLEMN* DECLAMATION. Since the last sitting of the court, we have only heard ot two murders committed In the county by white persons ; one was committed in a personal quarrel about some property, and the murderer immediately fled and has not yet been arrested ; a trur bill has been found against him at this terr for the offence. The other murder was committed by four white persons, In the night time, undisguised ; the two colored persons that saw them did not know any ol them, and it is not known for what he was murdered. We, the grand Jurors, upon our oaths, are compelled to say, from the testimony which we have taken and from our knowledge of the different parts- of the county, that the allega Hons contained in the proclamation of the President of the United States are without foundation and must be the result of falsehood communicated to him by persons equally re? gardless of good order and the peace of society, and whose only aim is their elevation to public place as a reward tor their excessive partisan zeal. THE M'LURE MURDER. We would say that. In regard to the murder of Bird McLure, we examined the Hon. Bar? ney Humphries, but we could elicit no facts from him that would lead to the discovery of his murderers. We also examined Squire Sims and Margaret McLure, a brother and wife of the deceased, who lniormed us that John Jag gera had told Squire Sims that he knew some ol the parties that were connected with the murder of B*rd McLure, and also that Lewis Jeter had told Margaret McLure that he (Lewis Jeter) knew the parties. We sent Squire Sims to bring Lewis Jeter before us, but he said that Lewis Jeter was sick and could not at? tend, and, further, tr at John Jaggers lived fif? teen miles from here and that we could not send for him._ THE WEATHER THIS DAT.

A PRAISEWORTHY EFFORT RESULTS ISA SIGSAL SUCCESS. The Building and the Exhibition-The Contributors from Orangeburg.' and from Charleiton-Lively Scenes-The Full Award of Prize?. [FROM OCR OWN CORRESPONDBNT.] ORAXOEBCRG, October 26. Catching the spirit of progress, and resolved to keep time with the commendable parts of the "march of the age," the Orangeburg Agri? cultural Society proposed a fair. Much doubt prevailed as to the practicability of the scheme, and with many a smile, almost sinister, predicted ?a?lure and mortification. True, the track of Sherman is still marked with ghostly sentinels overlooking ashen heaps, where so latelv siood the abodes of comfort and plenty, and a people once lavish in their munificence, have cheerfully donned the homespun and Jeans of humbler life, yet accepting the stern Issues of the day, they look disaster in the face, and resolved lo wring from what seemed an inevitable fate a meed of success In tri? umph over misfortune and poverty, and over the tyranny of a political destiny that saps their very life and energy. The preparations devolved upon a committee, and no fitter se? lections could have been made than the fol? lowing gentlemen : Dr. W. F. Barton, presi? dent of O.A. Society; Colonel P. S. Felder. W. W. Culler, J. H. Fowles, H. Riggs. S. Dib? ble and L. R. Beckwith. The building owned by Mr. Whittemore, ol Charleston, was secured. Its interior present? ed an ungraciously unctuousappearance,being formerly used as a soap factory; but a few days ol well-applied labor restored it from rubbish to cleanliness, and its spacious apart? ments were put in order for the several de? partments of exhibition. A lenee enclosed the adjoining lot, and part3 of the cornering streets, giving an area of probably three acre?, around which were conetructed stalls and penB for stock, and in the centre of which was a space allotted to two rings and for the display ot the animals on exhibition, the other lor certain mysterious preparations ol pole greasing, sacks and roller contrivances, that excited intense interest among the Juveniles. A flag with the inscription "Fair," floated from a stately staff, and the crowd ol wagons arriving with contributions, the host ol ne? groes outside watching the preparations, the practicing ot fast nags in haruess and under saddle, together with the Irrepressible grind? ing of an itinerant hand-organ, that accom? panies a hobby-horse hippodrome, all combin? ed to give the locality a lively appearance. The band arrived from Columbia on Tuesday, and at 12 M. its pleasing strains announced the lair begun. Entering the grounds on Market street, we were led to an avenue ot pines and cedars that Ironted the main door, and immediately we were In the department for poultry. Here contributions were made by T. A. Jeffords. Esq., of Charleston, ot a trio of " Brahmas " light, dark and buff, the only genuine fowls of the kind, also ot a cage of rare and beautllul pigeons ol several varieties. Mr. T. C. Alber gottl contributed the celebrated ' White Leg," a game cock ot splendid appearance, and hero ot five pits. Here were found West India and domestic geese, fowls ot foreign importation, including the gray Dorkings, game fnwls ol various breeds and colors, turkeys, ducks, <kc. rn this room, among several dogs on exhibi? tion, we saw a setter belonging to Mrs. E. W. Fenn, which for beauty and intelligence ls rarely met. Leaving this department we en? ter the main hall. Here bales ol hay, pea vines and cotton are entered for competition. De? pending from the rafters are stalks of prolific cotton, specimens of tanning, &c. On the left ls a large variety of improved Implements for agriculture. In this department, Mr. C. Graveley. oi Charleston, contributes the one horse cultivator, new styles of saws, axes, stump-puller, ploughs, ana various other speci? mens ot labor-saving machines. Here, also, ls the well-known Winship gin, entered by Messrs. Bull, Scoville A Pike, and close beside lt a splendid sample ef the peerless Taylor gin, entered by J. A. Hamilton, who also exhibits the ?olin cotton press, (a home invention, ca? pacity, with two men, 576,000 poundB,) also, the Henerey grist mill and Brown's planter. In the department of machinery are many arti? cles hitherto unknown to us, but now coming into use. A grain drill, entered by Captain Brlggmann, deserves mention. Passing from these we encounter a gem of a buggy, by H. Riggs, also a tasty iron scroll-gate, by Thomas Ray. We next inspect a beautiful gun, for ball or shot, the handiwork of Mr. P. Cannon. This contribution ls specially noteworthy, as the maker has never served a day of appren? ticeship, and has lapped the efforts of adepts in his first attempL Our visit ls now diverted to the department miscellaneous. Here we must note only the conspicuous items, as the variety of handiwork is too numerous to men? tion. Mrs. Baldwin exhibits willow baskets of very pretty design and make. A violin, made by Mr. S. Pearson ol native wood, is a work of art. Mr. 8. Dantzler exhibits carvings on shell which rival the fairest cameos. These are the mementoes of prison lite. Mr. F. Kohn contributes specimens of en? graving and chasing of exquisite finish and design. His display of waiter, pitcher, gob? lets, ?c., are from a master haul. Dr. J. B. Legare contributes afine piece of work in the line of artificial teeth. But we hasten hythe tempting variety of garden products to regale amid the geraniums aud exotics, contributed by Miss Meredith and Mrs. Scroville; twenty five varielies of beautllul plants exhaling sweetest fragrance, add beauty and Interest to the display around. The dairy ls tempting? ly represented. Rolls and scrolls of golden butter lie close.to loaves of snowy bread, but "Hands Off" warn us to check our appetite, and we enter the department of needle-work. We are safe In asserting that Hie lartners of Orangeburg have done bravely in their con? tributions to the fair, and we are equally sate in saying that their wives and daughters have crowned the lair with success. The articles on exhibition in ibis department vary from Ihe homespun spread to the delicate lace em? broidery, and to attempt to select the meri? torious, would be to discriminate against a i1..splay ot handiwork that defies any standard below excelsior. An antique work of sixty-three years ago, styled the -'Genius of America," is attractive. It is a picture wrought in silk; behind a shaft erected to Warren Montgomery and others, are the fierce flames and horrors of war's charnel house; at the foot cf the shaft is an Indian queen, sorrow? ing over the uncertain picture around her-a halo ot silver light Intervenes, and In the dis? tance ls the angel of peace bearing the olive branch, while a train ol blessings follow on with the Introduction of commerce and other attendants of civilization. Another lavish and tantalizing display ol iced cakes, fruits and pies, preserves, sauces, wines, pickles, <fcc, encounter the eye, and with mingled feelings oi delight and disappointment we pass on to Inspect the gallery ot paintings, Ac. Mrs. S. Dibble has contributed several specimens in oil and pencil. We next descend to the base? ment floor, which is comfortably flited up for horses and choice stock. Suffice it to say that, In harness and under saddle, these noble animals excited the applause ol the crowd. Mr. Paul Zimmerman rode a horse ot remark? able speed and endurance, and Mr. ll. Smouk bestrode a creature of grace and activity. The second day opened with cloud3 that oc? casionally showered rain, but the crowds poured in with every species ot vehicles. Old and young, white and colored, were excited to attend, and at an early hour the large build ding was crowded. Surprise was patent In every face, and a warm gratulation escaped every lip in the appreciation ol' tue succesB of the fair. Amid the inspection of the large number of contributions, the constant diver? sions afforded by the "committee on tun," the grateful mu3ic of the band, the plenteous re? freshments lurnished by the caterers, ihe ex? hibition of noble horses and specimens oi fine equestrmnshlp, the day sped by ?ayly and happily. "Well done," ls the response ol every vistor, and those who came from oi her counties to visit our Fair Grounds have generously accorded ihe palm to Oraugebur^. The ruin continues upon the third and last day, but the interest is unabated; crowds throng the building, all anxious to lend sup? port to defray the expenses incurred by th? committee, and each amply rewarded by i he visit. We must not disparage the day of "wee things." an t note that with the aid of a spy? glass Colonel F.'; potatoes assumed the digniiy of slips The afternoon was sunny and fair, and the announcement being made that the plzes would be awarded, the wiudows of the building were thronged with the bright laces of the lair daughters of the county, while the crowd o:' men outside surrounded the stand whereon the prizes were laid and Judges sat After the award of prizes the fair closed, and an era of progress opened with the first effort ot the Orangeburg Agricultural Socieiv to in? augurate a fair.

The Work of Reform in New York- Ac? tivity Of O'Conor and Kvarta-Arrest of Tweed-Ile lc Released on Big Ball. A New York letter of Wednssday says : The outcry against th? corruptions of the City Hall ls having at least one good effect already, and that ls to compel both parties to glace lu nomination only first-class men. liarles O'Conor and Hon. William B. Evarts are among the candidates named for the State Senate-the former by the Reform Democrats, and the latter by the Republicans. In a pecuniary sense it will not pay men like these to go to the State Legislature, but patriotic considerations mi j induce them to accept. It ls understood that legal measures, upon which O'Conor and Evarts snd their assis? tants have decided on as the best means of | prosecuting Tweed lor bis alleged dishonesty in office, will be formally begun to-morrow by the Issue of a process against him In one of I the courts. It is believed that he will be ar- [ rested on a criminal charge, and that the com? mittee of seventy and committee of citizens have been enabled, by the deputy comptrol? ler's assistance, to obtain conclusive legal evi? dence which will, at least, make lt impossible for Tweed to appear before the people as a candidate for any public office. The News, however, says that the preliminary movement on the ring will be commenced by an action in equity, to be prosecuted by tl?e attorney general, acting through Charles O'Conor, against Tweed, Ingersoll and Garvey. Their arrest will immediately follow, und they will be held to ball In $2.000,000 to answer any judgment. The papers ure lengihy, and, it is alleged, are accompanied by accounts tracing large sums of money Into Tweed's possession. Another county is expected to be the scene of ] t he legal operations, probably Albany, us Judge Barnard's fidelity lo the cause ol' reform ls doubted. NEW YORK, October 27. Tweed was served with au order of arrest early this afternoon by Sheriff Brennan. Tweed stated that he was anxious to go before the court. After a lengthy consultation be? tween counsel, ball to the amount of tico mil? ito?; dollars was lurnlshed by Jay Would, Ter? rence Farley. Hugh Hustings, Bernard Kelly and B. O. Fairchild.

Ia Hie Episcopal Convention at Baltimore on Tuesday, the committee on the prayer? book reported against any additional service for the burial of such persons as cannot, be? cause of the first rubric of the service for th burla! of the dead, be buried with that service Also against any alteration of ihe prayer the President, or any change whatever In the prayer-book; also in opposition to permitting any clergyman to omit passages which does not conscientiously agree with. The port was adopted by the house. The commit tee on christian education presented r?solu tions, which were adopted, declaring that ..except where weighty local or special con sideration8 Intervene, it is our duty to sustai our own educational Institutions by our gilts and our patronage/ A message was recei ed from the House of Bishops announcing the adoption of the canon on ritual as reported the Joint committee on that subject, in which lt asks the concurrence of the House of Clerl cal aad Lay Deputies. THE DISCCSSION OF THE RITUAL was then resumed, during which Rev. Dr Paddock, ol Long Island, denied that ritualism was declining. It lind attained lo dangerous proportions in Eng and and was flourishing here. He advocated the passage of the canon as it came from Hie House of Bishops. Dr. Jackson, of Connecticut, said that the ritualists were reformers; their publicatio were everywhere, while we who oppose them are doing nothing. What we should do ls mould public opinion, to inform the people the errors of ritualism, and then public opi ion will endorse the legislation we may rim. necessary. He thought a decent and cornel ritual a very necessary thing, and he wished the church had moro ol it. What he prlncl paliy objected to In the ritualists was the doc trine of auricular confession, which they were industriously propagating. He had seen things in the administration of the Holy Sacrament which he regretted, because he thought lt was made a mere mechanical ceremony. But, as he said before, the true remedy was to mould public opinion, to point out these errors to the people. Rev. Mr. Nurgan, of Iowa, hoped there would be immediate action, as this question of ritualism bas been agitating the public mind for six years. Judge Sheffey. ol Virginia, said he was one oi the representatives of the oldest diocese on this continent. He was a churchman, a lover of this noble old church of ours. He held that lt Bhould be made plain what practices were to be prohibited, and not leave so Important matter in the discretion of any one man, and advocated the prohibition by positive enact ment of the practices recommended to be so prohibited by the report of the Ave bishops He said that although lt was not now the prac tice in his diocese, he would be willing to nave lt made obligatory to do reverence at the men lion of the name ot the Lord Jesus. Rev. Dr. Vlnton, of Massachusetts, said the denial of the corporeal presence of Christ was the only excuse the Church of England had for being. To admit that would carry-?he Dack to the Church of Rome. The evidence of this corner-stone of the church's faith was so plain that it was Inconceivable how any one could argue otherwise. He then went un to argue that* ritualism was Romanism without the Pope. Its tendency was to secure that supreme control ot one man over another man's mind that had been thc bane of the generations. It was like the serpents which encircled Medusa's head, scattering venom and the breath of spiritual death all around. He was In the main for this amendment, (Dr Mead's,) but lt did not go far enough. It left untouched the celebration of the quasi mass which was the core of the whole evil. For the aesthetics of the thing he cared nothing; let the garments, let the many-colored fringes go ; a minister and his congregation want more or less music, more or less decoration, let them have lt; but do not give up this great central treasure of the church's faith. Something ought to be done, something must be done, or the citadel ot God will be given over to Its foes. Mr. Carter, of Maryland, said no one was more anxious for a uniform law on the ritual than he. but he wanted a law which, it was to be supposed, would be the law of the church for all time, maturely and most cheerfully con sidered, and hence he should be most sorry to see in the haste of the moment this canon as It now stood passed. These are to be the laws of ritual, and nothing else. Is the cross which surmounts most of our churches placed there by authority of a canon ? Is the beauti ful evergreen with which the churches are decked at Christmas done by authority of a canon ? Is lt by authority of a canon that the congregation In some churches rises when the offertory is recited by the minister? No; all these things are done according to usage Yet, according to this canon lt is in the pow er of the bishop to prohibit all these things He did not say that any ol them would be prohibited, but if such an attempt was made the whole church would rise up against it But he only alluded to them to show to them how many forms that are dear to the church rest not on any canon but on usage. After further debate, the house adjourned It is understood that the vote by which the canon on ritual passed the House of Bishops was 21 to 19. The Closing Proceedings. BALTIMORE, October 2" The convention resolved to elect an assis? tant bishop for Texas. The text of the r?solu Hon finally adopted is ns follows: Resolved, That this convention hereby ex? press its decided condemnation of all ceremo? nies* observances and practices which are fit? ted to express a doctrine loreign to that set forlb in the authorized standards of this church. Resolved, That in the judgment of this house the fraternal counsel and advice of our Right Reverend Fathers, the Bishops of the Church, ls deemed sufficient at this time to secure the suppression of all that is Irregular and un? seemly, and to promote greater uuttormlty in conducting the public worship of the church, and in the administration of'the holy sacra? ment. The closing ceremonies were very impres? sive. _ _ THE OFFICIAL THIEVES JOT GEORGIA. ATLANTA, October 27. Schlatter, superintendent of the Bruns? wick and Albany Railroad. Ielt without notice.
