Two Colored Politicians Ouarre,.

Considerable excitement has been
created in Athens, Ga, over the mortal
stabbing of Randall Brown (colored) by
Matt Davis, tho colored postmaster at
Athens, who is strong supporter of Con.
gresham Speer. Brown is an advocate of
the election of Thomas d. Gambler, the
Democla al; nominee. Witnesses disagree
as to who first started the discussion, but
Brown and Davis got into a dispute as to
an insulting charge that tho latter had
heaped upon the former tho night before.
Hard words passed on both sides, result
ing in scuffie, when Matt Davis drew a
knife and inflicted mortal wound upon
his antagonist, ripping open the stomach,
SO that tho bowels were exposed. Davis
is under q, 500 bond to await the result of
Browns injuries.

-Tho Chances for Extr>dielon.
Notwithstanding tho order Of his coun-
selors, Major Phipps received general Wis
itors yesterday. Councilman Matthews,
of Philadelphia, and Detective Wright
remained the longest time. The breaking
of a large ulcer in the majors mouth
made him quite sick and physician was
called in. Mrs. Phipps has been with
her husband all day. He was given the
freedom of the eastern corridor. Last
evening the major said to Detective Wright:
"Those who expect me to say anything
that will damage the reputation of anyone
in Philadelphia will be disappointed. !
don't intend going back to Philadelphia
if can help it, but if have to 60 will
still hold my tongue" The majors
genial manners have already made him a
favorite with the Jail officials. Mr.. Cars.
callen still adheres to the opinion that the
mayor will not be extradited. MIR. Martin
and the others feel confident that he will.
If on Tuesday next Judge Sinclair recon-
mcnds the extraditiOn of tho major and
the governor general sustains him, it will
take about ten days to get out the neces.
sary papers, so that it il not likely that
major will cross the river for fifteen OF
twenty days, and an appeal to the supreme
bench will make his stay in Canada longer
still. It may be, however, that after the
arguments on Tuesday tho major will
consent to 60 to the statos without wait
ing for the arrival of the extraditiOn
papers. At present, however, he does not
seem inclined to give an inch.
The major said elf the have nothing
against me but the alleged forgery Of
warrants named in the Philadelphia news
papers the prosecution is prepostcrOus,
for have signed no such warrants. The
four warrants mentioned in the papers
were, l can assure and prove, not signed
by me. Remember that"
District Attorney Graham arrived home
last night from Washington, bringing
with him the prpers from the state de-
partment calling for the extradition from
Canada of Ellis p. Phipps on a charge of
forgery. The certified copies of tho in
dictment, signed by the grand jury, and
other evidence produced by the district
attorney, were considered sufficient by
Secretary Frelinghuysen, who directed the
issue Of tho necessary order upon the
Canadian government, signed by Presi-
dent Arthur; for tho surrender OF the body
of the unctuOus major. Mr.. Graham will
not start for Hamilton until Saturday, as
Monday, tho day before tho dato set for
the hearing, will be ample time in his
opinion to arrive there. He has no doubt
whatever of being able to bring Phipps
back with him aud thinks that tho efforts
of his counsel to keep him out Of the
tribunals Of justice of his own country will
be unavailing.

A WRITER in the Gcntlenan's Maq-
aZine takes the position that drunken
ness is a device of nature for relieving
humanity Of its inferior members, and
that this natural cleansing and renovat,
ing process cannot be advantageously
interfered with. The same argument
would prevent any attempt to keep
mankind from vicious indulgences. No
doubt the temptations that beset men
are struggled with successfully in pro.
portion to mems manhood. 1t might be
better for the world if all the weak and
depraved members of the community
were knocked on the head. But civil.
lied ideas will not permit practice that
would be in entire harmony with bar.
barian usages. Civilization and its
methods may be.:bad for the world ,as the
writer we quote would prove by his ar
gument but he can hardly expect CIV
ilized people to admit it.

THERE is a comet advertised as on
exhibition at 50 early an hour in the
morning that We presume few Of our
readers will care to see it. It is said to
be our old and brilliant friend of 1880,
which was such trouble to the astr0n-
omers and such an agreeable thing to
everybody else. When it went away we
were told that the most of us would
never live to see it again ; that has
proved to be true, but only because it
comes again at five o'clock in the morn
ing which is not an hour that suits us
very we'll. But now we are informed
that We may see it again iu couple of
years, as it is shortening its orbit prepar-
atory to final dip into the sun, which
is to occur before the century is out.
With this information we will not deem
it our duty to disturb our morning
slumbers to greet our visitor, as We
might feel inclined to do for old &C.
quaintance sake if it was going away
for long time. We will leave it to the
astronomers, and when they have made
their calculations and told us when it is
coming back, we will cheerfully believe
them when we see it.

much concerned Of late regarding the
preservation Of his body after the spirit

With the end in view Of defeating such
Of the grave robbers who may have de-
signs upon his corporal frame, he has
