THE TROUBLES IN TUNIS.
France Aiming Only at Legitimate
Defense-AlgerIne Advice 10 the
Bey-An English View of the Diffi-
Guilty.

ROME, April Ga statement is published,
apparently on authority, that France has
given England and other powers assurances
that any military operations on the Tunisian
frontier will solely aim at a legitimate
defense against the marauders, and France
has absolutely no idea of occupying or
threatening heindependence Of the regency.
Algiers papers received here declare that
the Bey's troops should cooperate with the
French against the tribes, and that Austen
tion on the Bey's part would be tantamount
TO hostility.
LONDON, April 6.-Mr. N. j. Guest, M.
P, writes to the papers here as follows:
"The Tunisian tribes have lately been
worked up into an unwonted
state of excitement by the
concentration OF French troops on the
frontier, and French emissares haYe spread
far and wide the menace of invasion. These
proceedings have induced the hhoumis to
arm. The BeY, however, is taking energetic
measures to insure order on the Tunisian
side."

Grateful Women.

None receive so much benefit, and none
are SO profoundly grateful and show such
an interest in recommending Hop BItters as
women. 1t is the only remedy peculiarly
adapted to the many ills the sex is almost
universally subject to. Chills and fever, In
digestion or deranged liver, constant or
periodical sick headaches, weakness In the
back or kidneys, pain In the shoulders and
different parts of the body, feeling of las
situde and dependency, are all readily re-
moved by these Bitters.

THE STOCK BOOM.
mors but Nothing De6nfte-The
Southern Press Association.

AUGUSTA, GA, April 6.-The excitement
In railroad stocks is over for the present
It is believed that the Central Railroads
friends have secured a controlling interest
In the Georgia Railroad land with 1t the Port
Royal Road, but nothing is yet known offici-
ally. Col. Wadley, who has been in the city
all day, says it is desirable that the interests
of Savannah, Charleston and Port Royal be
united in order to protect the commerce of
the two States, but whether this can be done
is yet undecided, and remains to be seen.
He leaves for Savannah tonight and goes
thence to Charleston. While as usual he
is properly reticent in regard to the COM
panY's business, the movements of the past
few days have doubtless been made with the
object of benefting this section. Georgia
Railroad stock is quiet, the last sales being
at 13O. Central closed here at LIS.
The Southern Press Association met this
evening, and adjourned until tomorrow
morning.
ANOTHER ACCOUNT OF THE BOOM.
The following is the account of the rapid
advance in railroad stocks, and the probable
cause therefor, as furnished by the Asso-
ciated Press dispatches:
AUGUSTA, GA, April 6-For several
weeks there have been various rumors here
In reference to railroad affairs Central and
Georgia Railroad stocks have advanced
rapidly, Central going up from 110
to 121. Georgia stock advanced from
lis to 143. This afternoon Central declined
to lis and Georgia to 135. The rapid ad-
vance in Georgia was caused by efforts to
purchase a controlling interest. 1t is
rumored, and believed, that parties favor
able to the Central Railroad interest
have secured sufficient stock to
control the Georgia Railroad. The parties
purchasing have large interests in the Cen
tral and South Carolina Railroads. The
combination embraces the South Carolina
the Central and Georgia Roads, which roads
will be worked in harmony with the Louis.
vile and Nashville combination.

THE CASE or GUITEAU.

DEMAND BY HIS COUNSEL FOR ACCESS TO Ills
PAPERs-ANoTHER PosTPoNEMENT ASKED.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 3.-On the opening Of the
Criminal Court this morning, motion was made
by Leigh Robinson, counsel in the Guitean case for
the delivery to the Property Clerk Of the District of
certain papers, etc, belonging TO the prisoner. He
specified the letters written by Gutoau at the time
or near the time of the arrest, newspaper scraps,
letters found in the possession of Byron Andrews.
and other communications from the prisoner. He
desired them TO be in the hands of the Property
Clerk where counsel for the defence could have
10 them.
The Dstrict-Attorncy SAID that these things were
not property, but were evidences of crime, and,
therefore, they belonged to him.
The Judge said he would examine the statues
and make such order as might appear necessary but
ii seemed to HIM that counsel for the defence should
have access to the papers. At all events he thought
that the Property Clerk had nothing TO do with
them.
Mr.. Robinson also applied for still more time TO
prepare for the trial. and stated the difficulties in
the way Of the defence being ready Oh the 18th
inst, the day fixed. Among other things he said
that il had only to be known that a person was TO
become a witness for the prisoner for clamor to be
raised against him and generally for the person
himself, in q manner very disgraceful to HIM. TO
have letter published in order TO "set himself
right in the community.
The Judge said he would consider the suggestion
to postpone the trial still further, aud would give
il due weight.
Mr. Robinson also stated that he had been mis-
represented IN the Washington papers on the last
