Moot Congress met last Saturday
night, Speaker Wilkes in the chair,
and after some preliminary bust
ness, went into Committee of the
Whole, with McCord OF Georgia in
the Chair, to consider the Resump-
ton Repeal. The repeal was advo-
Gated by Messrs. Mitchell, Lester,
Grove and Roberts, while Messrs.
Wilkes, Ewing and McCord spoke
against il, Mr.. Jones of Mo. having
taken the chair before the last two
speeches. The Committee then
arose and reported progress, and in
a short time the House adjourned.
The discussion was heated and in
teresting. Mr.. Rogers introduced
bill to abolish capital punishment.
There was a good attendance of
members and spectators. Next Sal
urday night the Committee. of the
Whole will again consider the pend
ing Repeal bill. The Speaker an
nounced his committees. He drew
them from the list of members of
the last Congress and will consider
them all members until instructed
otherwise. Members who have
changed residence since last session
will report to the Clerk and have
their names properly enrolled.
The Character Ball mentioned in
another item is to take place on
New Years night and at the st.
Giles Hotel, which will be put in
order for it by that time. The OBJ
ject is not to dance, though that
will constitute part of the program.
1t is anticipated that it will be one
of the most interesting carnivals we
have ever had. I he characters are
to be cast in regular way, and the
parts will be studied so as to have
them enacted with system. A band
will be engaged and the exercises
will be conducted by the King Of
the Carnival, who, with his Queen,
will occupy a Royal Throne in the
Festal Hall. The whole matter IS
under the management o: response
bic gentlemen, and is TO be a sort
of st. Giles Inauguration. Parties
from a distance viii attend, and all
the characters will bc known TO the
audience by q badge worn consPic
uously giving the name. 1t will be
urged that the young ladies and
cents should not shirk the charac-
ter gwen them. Persons who are
invited without notice Of what they
are to represent can choose any
character they wish.

1t is suggested that Giles county
should send to Nashville and bor-

house. We call the attention of the
County Court to it.

One Of the chief purchasers at the Menzfea
book sale few weeks ago was quito new cox
lcctor, whose history is curious. Years ago he
took it into his head that he would take to farm-
ing On Long Island, and set out to find desisa-
Bile farm. He went On tour Of inspection,
carrying with him shovel, with which he dug
up ground aud then had it analyzed- However,
not finding aught to his taste on Long Island,
lie determined to 60 to Rhode Island, aud there
purchased farm for 10000, on which ho ex-
pended $4,000 more, and then apparently tired
Of it, rented the ground for few Hundreds
year, and with the small remnant of his fortune
went to California; there he made lucky lit,
aud not long since returned to the East to make
the agreeable discovery that during, his absence
the City Of Providence had, proyidenttally for
him, been steadily advancing toward his farm,
which had become immensely valuable Pres-
entity he sold of $4,000 worth, aud then, arri7-
ing at the conclusion that he had let it 20 too
cheap, he had the rest surveyed and laid out in
srcets and lots. He has now sold altogether
5000, 600 worth! At the Mcnzies salc he insist
ed on getting many books, for which his ugcnt
told him he WAS paying ridiculously large
price.-Erchouqe.
