Of great jasper walls,
With their white marble floors

From great ivory hooks.

And lavishly bound.

Abiding to the lease and purchase
of the above road, the Atlanta Consti1
tuition of yesterday says:
"The Macon and Brunswick road

on last Saturday was 1t definitely
known that the trade made in Macon
on the 18th could be perfected. The
knowledge came to the Constitution on
that day, but was withheld until every
arrangement was completed.
"The money with which to make
the first payment reached Atlanta yes
terday at II o'clock, and will be COW
cred into the treasury this morning.
The purchasing company Is strong
one, headed by Il. T. Wilson and q.
M. McGhee, of the East Tennessee,
Virginia and Georgia Railroad and
the Memphis and Charleston Railroad,
embracing George Hazlehurst and A.
J. Lane, of this State. The road will
be promptly and certainly extended to
Atlanta, and the provisions Of the bill
carried out. The lease will be substi-
tuted with purchase this morning, or
as soon as the lease is perfected in the
terms of the law.

THE GEORGIA ROW.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 12.-The
New York Times this morning pubs
fishes the private correspondence
between Senator Gordon and Rep
resentative Stephens, with refer
ence to the personal misunder-
standing which arose between them
at the recent meeting of the Senate
Census Committee. The letters, it
is understood, were furnished to the
Times by Mr.. Stephens, Senator
Gordon having refused to give them
to the press, on the ground that
they related to purely private
matter.
Sen ator Gordon, in his let-
ter, expresses regret that, under ex-
treme provocation, he used harsh
and angry words to Mr.. Stephens,
but says that the latter had done
him great injustice, both in pri-
yate conversations and in the state.
ment made before the Committee
that he Gordon favored ex-Mar-
shall Smythe for the Office of Superp
visor in the 1st Census District of
Georgia. xi s--as
Mr.. Stephens, in reply, accepts
Senator Gordon'S apology, but
refuses to admit that there was any
provocation on his part for the
Senator'S words. He says he
meant nothing offensive to General
Gordon in repeating what he had
heard about the latter's favoring the
appointments Of Major Smythe.
The only object Of his remark be,
fore the Committee was to show
that the Objectionable words in
Simmons letter ofapplication were,
taken in their proper connection,
not subject to the construction
which General Gordon placed upon
them, . ..e- ,.,.,

Attempted Outrage in ST. Peters Ca
IhedrRI.
Special to the American


MEMPHIS, Feb. 10.-This morning
about 8 O'Clock, while Miss Mollie
Quiulan, most estimable young lady
scarcely II years old, was engaged In
her devotion at the foot OF the altar in
st. Peters Cathedral, she was startled
at feeling some one tightly clutch her
about the neck and attempting to
throw her backward upon the floor.
She screamed for assistance, when
her assailant, who was negro,
clasped bis hand over her mouth
to prevent her cries being heard
The young lady managed, however,
to again call for help, which fortu-
nately reached the ears of the sexton,
who hastened inside the church and
found her struggling with her would
be ravisher. Seeing the sexton ap-
preaching, the negro fed aud made
good his escape. The attempted outs
rage has created the greatest sensation.
st. Peters Cathedral is the largest
Catholic Church in the city. 1t stands
almost In the shadows of the station
house, and the idea that young lady
should be subjected to such an outs
rage and at such place caused great
indignation, and II the negro brute
should be arrested, his life would
be In danger, as bold threats have
been made to lynch him IL caught
Miss Quinlan's face and hands ! ear
signs OF the severe struggle. She says
that when she entered the church no
one was to be seen. The. supposition
is that the negro, who is young-not
exceeding 20 years of age-seeing her
enter the church. followed her in and
finding them to be its only occupants,
conceived the idea of ravishing her.
1t was an attempted outrage that
stands unparalleled in the history of
crimes In this city.

send despatch to Senator Blaine and Sens-

juring them to stand firm and maintain their

Tuesday will contain the following editorial:
1--WE think it would be impolitic for men
holding only prima facie titles to retain them
against opponents who were in fact elected,
and that there should be graceful yielding
to popular will, supported by the opinion ofthe
judges. Such a course would give every
man his rights, would vindcate Governor
Garcelon in the eye of all candid people, ex-
hibit proper respect to the Judiciary, pay
suitable regard to popular will and present
an example of magnanimity before the coun-
try, which would elicit applau Sc at home and
