Reduction.

The Western and Atlantic Railroad
has reduced the tariff on produce to one
dollar per barrel for apples, onions and
potatoes from Chattanooga, and stations
on the road to Savannah and Charles
ton, and to seventy-fivc cents per barrel
to Macon and Augusta. The old rates
were nearly twenty per cent. higher
Local trcights have been reduced from
seventy to thirty-three cents per hum
dred.
The legitimate result of this reduc-
ton, says an Atlanta contemporary, has
been greatly increased business over
the road and cheapening Of these pro-
ducts to the consumer. Upper Georgia
and Tennessee furnish apples and pota-
toes of as good quality as can be pro-
duccd in the North, and this reduction
throws them into markets that have
hitherto been supplied from other
States. The result is bound to be a
GOOD one. .,..#. .....

The Agricultural College,

The following proceedings in the Leg
islaturc on the Sth in regard to the pro-
posed Agricultural College, will per-
haps interest our readers up the road:
HoUsE-AFTERNOoN SESSION.
The consideration of the Agricultural
College bill was resumed, the discus
sion being on the motion to rccommit
the bill to the Committee OH Education.
Mr.. Doughty moved to lay the mo-
ton to rccommit on the table. Carried
by 81 to 81.
The Committee on Education, to
whom the original bill and the bill in
lieu had been referred, recommended
the adoption of the latter, said bill in
lieu providing for the proposed College
being located at Knoxville. ..
A lively discussion then ensued, par
ticipated in by Messrs. Doughty, Will
lianis, Roach, Jordan and the inevita-
bic Mynatt. The East Tennessee spea-
kers commended for Knoxville on the
ground of the peculiar loyalty Of that
section.
On motion, the report of the Commit
tee was concurred in, and then before
the bill was taken up on its third read
ing. it was referred TO the Committee
on Common Schools.

Secretary Fletcher.

Those round here who favor the Sc
lection of Judge Newt. Patterson as the
radical standard bearer in the next GU
bcrnatorial election, will find tart and
interesting communication on the out
side of our paper to-day, over the sig
nature of A j. Fletcher 1t will be
seen that the Secretary of State warns
the Judge up pretty smartly, and init
mates, in language Of unmistakable
plainness, that his Honor would do
well, if not better, to attend to the p,'fo-
per and legitimate duties of his position
holding it as he does by very ques-
tionabc authority-instead Of rushing
thoughtlessly into print every few days.
The advice is good and well meant, and
we hope the Judge will proceed to ac-
cept it at once, otherwise he will stand
no more chance of ever attaining to the
Govcrnorship than Bishop Pearne does
of being made Commissioner of Immi-
grafton, Cover Father Bokum,) with a
salary of three thousand dollars year.
The insinuation in a Nashville paper
that Judge Patterson held the position
of postmaster at Kingston under the
rebel government, we think is incorrect.

A Radical Bnclsslidcr.

1t is reported that Harriet Bcccher
Stowe, the author of "Unclc Toms
Cabin" has abandoned the radical faith.
"A year or two ago she purchased place
on st. Johns river, near Jacksonville,
Florida. During her experience there
she has learned things in connection
with the negro race which she did not
understand when she wrote the noted
sensational book referred to. A Florida
paper says of Mrs. Stowe:
From original condition of sentiment
tai attachment to the negro, she has
lapsed into a state of unconquerabe
dislike and aversion. She will not have
them about her, either indoors or out.
She turned them all Off her place. and
allows no one with black skin to APP
proach her. We arc told that an ac-
quaintancc of ours sought to send her
a message by black stcwardess on
board n steamboat, but she refused to
allow the negro to approach her. Her
mind, rs we have been crcdibly inform
cd, is very much inflamcd against the
negro; and this probably from compar-
ing their efficiency and aptitude as la
borcrs and servants with that of the
northern whites. Her fancy picture of
the African has been spoiled, and her
sentimental affection has turned, in con-
sequence, to violent aversion. Like
Squeers, the milk of human sympathy
In her bosom has turned to curd and
whpvr .l.

RetrOspecting.

The GAINESVILLE Patriot, a Republican
journal of respectable pretcnsions, has
a long article reviewing the franchise
question, and trcadng back to 1860.
The Stunning up is as follows: H.# -'.
The point we make is this: from
May 3, 1861 to May %, 1866, there was
no such thing as treason against the
State of Tennessee, because there was
no law of the kind and the rebel SOL
dicr. in so far as he had State Gov
eminent, was true to it.
Even the law Of scdition. section 4,776
of the Code, was repealed March 10,
1850, and not rc-cnactcd until June 3,
1865. Hence. within the limits of Ten
ncsscc, man could only be guilty of
treason against the United States. and
Congress has fixed their disabilities and
the President has pardoned all except
those to whom such disabilities attach
and in so far as the Acknowledgement of
this State exceeds that Of Congress. it is
unrcpublican as applied to politics, and
unconstitutional rs applied to law. Be-
sides. it has not been judicially settled
that there was any treason committed.

Strange phenomena are reported in

An Old Project Revived.

A report is finding circulation that
plan has been concocted by lead
ing radicals for the separation of East
Tennessee from the other portions OF
the State. and its erection into new
sovereignty after the manner of West
Virginia. The movement is said to be
induced by the opinion that, when the
franchise restrictions shall be removed
which must occur in a year or two more,
the Eastern portion Of the State will be
pretty much at the mercy of the Mid
die and Western Divisions. In the event
the plan succeeds, it is thought that
Morristown, Jefferson county, may be
selected as the seat of the new State
Government. 1t is said there will be
but little opposition from the people
beyond the Cumberland range.
Whether the report alluded to has
any tangible foundation, or has been
started for the purpose of still further
embarrassing the passage of the omni-
bus bill, which is emphatically an East
Tennessee measure, we are not prepared
to say at present, and shall await fur
ther developments with some degree OF
interest. s...

Meeting of COngress---President's
Message.

Both houses of Congress met at noon
OIL Monday, and proceeded to business
commenced, where the previous scs-
sion quit of, with the subject of recon-
struciion and the war on. the South. In
the Senate, the credentials, of Mr.. Hill,
of Georgia, were prescnted-when Mr..
Drake, of Missouri, objected on the
ground that "loyalty" was not yet all
powerful in Georgia. The matter was
postponed until Wednesday. Senator
Nice. of Arkansas, who believes the re-
bcllion is still In full vogue, introduced
bill authorizing the national govern
mcnt TO furnish small arms and cannon
to the Governors of North Carolina,
South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Ala
bama, Louisiana, and Arkansas, at the
respective seats of government. These
arms must go into the hands of loyal
men. Mr.. Rice is new man, we be-
licve, who thinks there are but two
classes in Arkansas fit to live and vote,
namely, cafpet-baggers and negroes.
In the House the proceedings were
altogether desultory. Several new mem
bcrs were sworn in, and the credentials
OF Supernumerary Tom Hamilton, of
Memphis. were presented and referred
Pending the decision of his case. the
superhuous member from Tennessee is
not to be allowed to exhibit himself on
the floor of the House. The House was
notified that the Presidents message
would not be sent in to Congress until
Wednesday. The inevitable Mullins,
of Tennessee, introduced bill to sup
press the Kuklux by national authority.
AS this is Mr.. Mullins last chance, he
evidently contemplates a grand coup
detat, something that will enable him
to close his parliamentary career with
brilliant effect. The squelching of an
imaginary foe will be just the thing.
A preamble and resolution were in
tcnurc-of-officc law. 1t was promptly
tabled. The radicals don't feel entirely
sure of Grant yet, and propose to see
what's ahead before taking off the
brakes.
The papers of Tuesday morning con-
tain what purports to be short synop-
sis of the Presidents message, but it is
too meagrc to give the reader any thing
more than all unintelligible idea of the
subjects embraced in the document, and
we prefer to wait for fuller report.

Omnibus Bill Postponed.

The following paragraph, from the
Nashville Press and Times of the 9Th,
would seem to indicate that. there was
to be some delay in the passage of the
new railroad appropriations: ..
The new omnibus railroad bill is at
dead lock, a resolution having passed
the Legislature yesterday to do.nothing
with it until special committee should
have investigated and reported how the
bonds issued under the old omnibus
bill have been disposed Of. 1t will take
the committee some time, we fancy, to
get up Il report.

More Trouble and Outragcs
Savannah.

SAVANNAH, Ga, Dec, S.--A special
police force was appointed and commits
stoned by the Mayor two weeks since,
for patrol on the outskirts of the city,
composed mostly of Georgia farmers
and gardeners, who relieved each other
nightly, patroling the woods, and guard
ing the farms from the depredations of
negroes. Last evening Broadbecker and
several others were patroling Thunder
bolt Shell Road. About p. rs. they
heard loud hallooiny. They approach
ed the party and demanded to know the
cause of the disturbance. The negroes,
about half dozen in number, replied
thrcateningly,w when Broadbeckcr arrest
ed one, giving him in charge of the
party, and advanced a few PAGES to make
another arrest. At this moment they
were suddenly fired into by large par
ty of negroes, numbering about forty
who had before been concealed. Some
sixty shots in all were fired, the patrol
retreating before superior Mr..
Broadbcckcr was killed the first fire, and
three others of his party were wound
ed-two of them probably mortally.
This afternoon an inquest was held upon
the body, and verdict rendered that
'deceased came to his death while dis
charging his duties as special policeman,
OH the 9TH December, from gunshot
wounds in the face and head, from the
hands of negro, one of the party who
were disturbing the peace, on the Thun-
derbolt road. We earnestly recon-
mend that the State and county authori-
ties take action in order to protect tho
persons of this county from the brutal
ty of the negro population" There is
considerable excitement. About thirty
arrests have already been mace by the
authorities.
