ANOTHER ACCOUNT.

A Madrid correspondent, writing on
the evening OF the olh ult., says the rev.
olutionists have been venting their fury
upon inanimate objects. Everywhere
the arms, busts, crowns and inscriptions
bearing the names or titles Of the Queen
aud her family, were taken down and
trodden under foot. The Gale de Ii
Reina was instantly transformed into
Gale de Prim the Plaza del Principe
Alfonso is called PlsZa de Topete. The
face OF the King Consort on painting
was besmeared with filth. With these
exceptions the Madrid revolution was
the most exemplary and at the same
time the tanest popular outbreak the
world ever witnessed. From noon to
very late evening there was, properly,
no government whatsoever in the city.
The immense mass of the population was
in the best OF humors; they jostled one
another in the narrow streets with hearty
greetings and congratulations, OCCASION

themselves with joy, brimfuli OF mutual
love, shouting " PtUd Pril !n aAd pro-

succeeded the exhibition Of bright lights

GOV. BROWNLOW DIVIDES
PROFITS.
Our Governor Bargains for a
Share of the Rewards he Offers
for Criminals.

From the Nashville Banner
During the late term of the Circuit
Court at Smithville, DeKalb county,
Judge McLain presiding, q murder case
was tried in which Judge Mansen NJ.
Rrien, OF this city, was engaged. In the
course of bis argument Judge Brien made
the startling declaration that "there is a
regular partnership existing between
William 6. Brownlow and Col. Black
burn on the following terms That the
said Col. Blackburn shall arrest and con-
vey to Nashville all men In that section
OF the State who are accused of horse
stealing, murder and other crimes. and
that when they have arrived In Nash
vile, and before they are tried, Brown
low shall offer q reward for their arrest,
Brownlow and Blackburn divide the
money between them, sharing equally
In the profits arising from Brownlow's 3
recent proclaim stion.n
Judge Brien ELECTED this statement
from the evidence Of Col. Black burn.
He denounced the partnership as a
''species of infamy heretofore uL-
known and further stated that he
expected to be sssa assinsted for exposing
the parties, and that the speech he was
then making was the last he ever ex-
pected to be permitted to make at the
bar.u - -- -4
The above report Of Judge Brien's
speech was received from an attorney in
the Casa lawyer of distinguished anil
ity, and one whose moral sense was
shocked at the idea Of such depraVity as
that exhibited by BFownlow in thus pros
tituting the Executive Office to the vile
purpose of filling his pockets with dis
honest gains.
The Hsrtsville Vidette says Of the viii
lsiuOus conspiracy
" The case in all its horrible details
was brought TO light in open court at
Smithviile before the Hon. Judge Nc
Lain, and from his well known zeal in
furnishing Illegal acts, it is fair to presume
that the name of William @. BrOwnlOw
will soon figure in the list of indictments
by the DehSlb county grand Jury, and
that he will learn that such exemplifica.

THE LATE HOWELL COBB.
Funeral ObseGnies Of the De-
ceased Statesman at Athens,
Georgia.

From the Augusta (Ga Constitudonslist OF shc
17tn instant
We learn that the funeral of Gen.
Cobb in Athens on Thursday last, Wss
the largest and most imposing ceremony
of the kind ever witnessed in that place.
The special train from Savannah which
conveyed his remains, reached Athens
early Thursday morning, In charge OF
an escort, composed of delegations from
Savannah, Macon, Atlanta and Augusta
and large number of the special friends
of the deceased, who Joined them at the
different points on the read.
Ali the business houses, offices, and
stores in Athens were closed during the
day, aud the country people for miles
around the town came in to pay this last
sad tribute TO their departed friend.
! The procession to the cemetery was
composed of the special escort before al
luded to, the members of the Masonic
Lodge, the Odd Fellows Lodge, the two
Societies of the State University, the
members Of the Bar, the President and
Professors Of the University, the Clergy
and citizens generally Of Athens and the
adjoining counties.
Religious exercises were conducted by
the Rsv. Mr.. Finn, for long time
Chaplain of Gen. CObb's command in
Virginia, the Rev. Mr.. Warren, the pas
tor OF the Baptist Church in Macon, and
the Rev. Mr.. Key of the Methodist
Church. The sermon Of Mr.. Finn was
an eloquent and feeling tribute to the
virtues and sxceilencies Of Gen. Cobb's
character, and its kind and touching sem
timents met hearty response from the
grief-stricken community which crowd
ed around the bier Of their esteemed and
yeneEated friend. Although Gen. Cobb
had not made an outward profession Of
reiion, it ID known that for months past be
has been anxionsly seeking that consola-
ton which alone Is found In the service
of the Lord and the practice Of His pre-
cepts. While at the North he had an
nounced to the members of his family,
who were then with him, bis determine
ton, as soon az he returned home TO put
on the habiliments OF Christ by uniting
himself TO the Baptist Church, Of which
his wife is member.
Few men have ever lived in Athens
who so endesred themselves to the whole
people IS Gen. Cobb. And the deep and
perVadlBg grief OF the entire population
of the city showed how much and how
we'll they loved him. Each person, male
and female, in that long procession wepe
over his bier es though It contained the
remains OF dear relative. Even the IN
nocent prattle Of the Little children was
hushed In the preseLes Of that grief
stricken community, and the streets and
th0ronghfares Of the city we're as still
and silent a. the grave, il.

Correspondence of the Cincinnati Enquirer.
New ORLEANS, Nov. 25.-A
most estimable lady, named Mrs.
Crane, whose husband is a book
keeper in Flemming & Cos drug
store, on Magazine street, in this
city, died very suddenly last July,
of what was pronounced sun-stroke.
She was a school teacher in one
of our most popular schools, and
resided, if | am not mistaken,
on Dryades street. 1t was in the
afternoon after school was out,
that she went to visit a neighbor
on Felicity street, and just as she
entered her friends house, she
fell insensible to the floor, and eX.
pired, to all appearance, in about
two minutes, a doctor pronounc-
ing it sun-stroke. Her body was
inferred the next day, at about
10 o'clock, and her mother, an old
lady about fifty years of age, and
her husband and one little son,
went home almost broken-hearted,
and have since been nearly dis
tracted, being at times unable to
sleep, and, in fact leading a most
miserable and disconsolate life;
and we'll they might, as the sequel
viii show, had they known what
they had done. Well, one night
last week the mother, after pass
ing a most distressing day, fell
asleep late at night and dreamed
that her daughter had been buried
alive. She jumped UP in a fran
tic state and rushed to her son-in-
laws chamber, crying, "My daugh-
ter is buried alive! Oh, my daugh-
ter is buried alive! What shall |
dol" To sleep any more that
night, was out of the question,
she still crying that her daughter
was buried alive, whenever her
son-in-law would try to quiet her.
At length the proposition was
made to have the body disinterred,
just to satisfy her. So early the
next morning the grave was
opened and the coffin raised. Oh,
what a horrible sight met their
view! Pen is powerless to por-
tray the scene which followed
The body which had been placed
in a metallic coffin, was turned
over, The glass covering the face
was broken to atoms, the ends of
her fingers being beaten and bat
tered all to pieces; her hair torn
out in handfulls, and her shroud
torn in many places-all present
ing the appearance of one of the
most desperate struggles to free
herself from her terrible misfor-
tune.

The Divorce Question.

TIE Episcopal General Convention has
at last broaohed question of great i'm
portancs and universal interest. On Saturday
the subject of the marriage of divorced per-
sons was under discussion, and canon was
introduced prohibiting the ministers of the
Church from officiating at marriage ceremonies
when either party had been divorced except
for adultery. The matter was finally recon-
mitted, but will again be called up, and it is
expected that some action of this decided
character will be taken.
The Episcopal Convention will certainly re
oeive the hearty encouragement and endorse
ment of every right minded man and woman
in the country in their effort to elevate the
marriage relation. The trivial causes for
which divorces are now granted in many Of
the States constitute one of the most fruitful
sources of domestic misery and infdelity to
the marriage VOWS. BY the extreme readi-
ness and indecent haste whioh characterize
the business of divorce, the marriage ceremony
has been rendered to great extent a farce,
and the consequence is seen on all sides in a
general undermining OF the foundations OF
society. 1t therefore becomes the plain duty
of the controlling bodies of the great religious
denominations to give the subject their gravest
consideration, and to withdraw from the pre-
sent practice their countenance and support.
But this is not the only action that is needed.
congress should take the matter in hand by
proposing TO the Legislatures of the several
States an amendment to the Federal Constitu-
tioD, giving TO our National Legislature sole
and exclusive jurisdiction OF the marital rela-

ton. II any Of the conditions of society should
be characterized by uniformity, IL certainly
should be the case with marriage which is the
very foundation o. all society. The regu-
lation Of the commercial interests of
the country is now entrusted to Con-
grsss, without complaint on the part
of the States; but our commercial relations are
of comparative insiguifcance, when compared
with the solemn duties aud responsibilities of
the domestic circle. Congress should have
sole jurisdiction, and should enact such laws
as will secure uniformity throughout the
country, both in the cases of marriage and
divorce. Uniformity on9e established and the
United States Courts invested with the exolu-
sive jurisdiction of divorces, the gross iniqui-
ties which now prevail in many of the States
could be done away with. In no other way is
such result practicable.
