Prince Bismarck on the Labor Question.
 BERLIN, Jan. 9.-In the Reichstag to-day Prince Bismarck in replying to questionsas to the operation of the factory laws said the result of the late elections had forced him to conclude that the mass of workmen disap- proved of his plans, placing more confidence in the system of private associations. He said the Emperor was anxious to settle the workmen's questions, but the workman him. self had repelled the efforts of the govern ment. Her Richster in replying reproached Prince Bismarck with always dragging the name of the Emperor into all doubtful de- bate on the workmen's question. He said that Bismarck was not an advocate of the poor man but of the employer. The work man had nothing to hope for from him. While Herr Richster was speaking Prince Bismarck left the House. The Liberals have arranged to raise debate in the Prussian Diet on the imperial rescript.

sharp Reply to Senator Hill.
 ATLANTA, Jan. 9.-Dr. W. H. Felton, lead CT of the Independent party in Georgia, will publish card in to-morrow's Consultation denouncing Senator Hill for charging him in an interview with trying to Africanize the State. After charging the Senator with vari- ous offences of a minor character he says: 'T believe we will thrive on his abuse and I hope he will do as he threatens to, for many people are getting restiye under his political assuming and Bourbon buffoonery When this presuming leader dares to charge me with trying to Africanize the State because I claim for every man, white or colored, the right to vote Q free ticket and hear that vote counted because I claim the right of every child to plain English education at the ex- pense of the State and federal governments !; because l claim protection for the poor wretched creatures who are by the multitude being pushed into the convict camps of the Senator's political allies, the people will begin to understand the true inwardness of Bourbon supremacy in Georgia. I wish the Senat or 1 to understand distinctly that with all my political faults no man can charge me with | | opposition to measure which required an immense railroad corporation to pay it's law ful dues to the government of the people,
 and when opposition failed, as it should have failed, was not found few days thereafter | appealing to the Supreme Court in the interest of the defeated monopoly for and in consideration of an immense fee, leaving the world in doubt whether the fee had been contracted fer before or after favorable
 vote was given. With all my defects as a Democrat I was never in consultation at
 Wormley's or any hotel with the most prom inent republicans in the Union bartering away the right and hardly earned triumphs
 of the democratic party for and in considera-
 tion of a little federal patronage and little
 praise from the Republican party. I have
 never by folly supreme justly earned among
 my colleagues in Congress the title,
 s'Destroyer of the Democratic party" I am
 sorry for MT. Hill. He has frittered away
 the grandest opportunities a man ever had.

4 Man Dives Down q Chimney.

BROOKLYN, Jan. 9.-Barney McClean and his wife Annie, who live in the old rookery known as the Patchen farmhouse on Pacific street, near Court street, got into an angry row yesterday, and made so much noise that Officer Thomas Collins, of the Third pre- cinct went in to see what was the matter. McClean darted out of the room and started for the roof. Collins ran after him, and reached the roof just in time to see McClean dive down chimney. Running to the lat ter, the policeman found that it had proved too small for the passage of the fugitive, who was tightly wedged between the bricks about fifteen feet from the top. The officer had to get the services of two other police men and pull nearly all the chimney down before Mclean could be extracted and made prisoner. Barney says he would jump of the roof the next time.
