MACON, Ca, March S0.-Last Satur-
day morning, while jesse Doles, a young
farmer living seven miles from Vienna,
Dooly county, was blowing in his field,
George Rouse, a negro and ~ex-convict,
entered his dwelling and committed an
outrage upon his wife and then cut her
throat. She was found soon afterward by
her husband, who assembled the neigh
bors and began a search for Rouse. He
was captured Sunday morning. In the
evening a mob took him, heard his con-
i%ession, mutilated his person, and then
hanged him naked to a tree on the public
road, where he yet hangs. Negroes took
part in the lynching, and could with diff
Guilty be restrained from burning Rouse at
the stake.

MIR. t. j. Mackey, counsel for Gen.
Hazen, writes as follows TO the Washing
ton Post in answer to allegations that Gen.
Hazen is an incompetent official:
Gen. Hazen has never engaged in con-
tests except in self-defense when wantonly
assailed. There is not 4 fact anywhere in
his record to support the charge Of incom-
potency. The record does show that in
1858 his department commander, Gen.
Wool, publicly commended him in the
highest manner for zeal and efficiency. 1t
shows that in 1859 the inspector of his
department, lieutenant colonel (now
Gen. joseph E. Johnston, officially re-
ported: ''The End lieut., Hazen, was
severely wounded a week ago in the third
successful pursuit of Indians. in which he
has exhibited activity, perseverance, and
courage" 1t also shows thar he was
breveted by the government for gallant
~ in two general engagements with the
Indians" 1t show that this same officer
(Gen. Johnson), as a general in the Con-
federate service, reports substantially that,
but for the service of Gen. Hazen
with his command at Stone River,
the Confederates would have gained
that battle. He (Gen. Johnstonl, now
being in this city, still maintains it. 1t
shows that his command hanked the be-
sieging army at Chattanooga, gaining
Browns Ferry and lookout valley by
passing the enemy's flank in ffty-two
boats at night when the siege of our army
was raised. Secretary Stanton appointed
Gen. Hazen, a Encouragement, December
Is. 1864, and wrote in his commission as
his reasons; For gallant service at the
capture of Fort McAllister, and for long
and faithful service Of the highest charac-
ter" Gen. o. o. Howard, in whose
army General Hazen served the last year
of the war, has SAID; Il say, and always
have said, shat General Hazen is one of
the best and most efficient officers | have
eve known" General Sherman, with
whom General Hazen served during a
greater portion of the war, says, in a
communication dated June 10, 1888: II
was not in the army during his General
Hazen's earlier years of service, and can
only recall him to memory from and since
the battle of Shiloh, but his military
record from the day of his first commits
sion is perfect, and is such as any man
may be proud of. He is an officer of the
highest professional attainments, of the
best possible habits, and is very par
ticular in the choice of his associates"

The largest audience that has aver as
sembled in the opera house was present
last evening when Baird's minstrels APP

dress circle was filed. the gallery was full
and a number were obliged to accept
standing room.
The entertainment was on a par with
other first class minstrel performances.
People 10 to a minstrel performance to be
amused and the audience last evening was
no exception to the rule. 1t was ripe Tor a
laugh and it laughed on the slightest
provocation.
The introduction was good and other
parts of the programme were fair. Indeed,
those who enjoy minstrel entertainments
will be pleased with the performance,
although nothing particularly new, origi-
nal or astonishing is introduced. 1t is
simply a N everyday standard minstrel
show" and when that is said the subject
is exhausted.
The receipts last evening are stated to
be about 1910, and doubtless Appropriated
that sum The entertainment will be re-
peated this evening with some slight
changes in the programme.

leries We're crowded with people who
plainly showed irritation over the French
defeat at Lon Pom, by keeping up a noisy
discussion and hurting denunciatory cpl
thets at various members of the cabinet
and their supporters as they entered the
chamber. When jules Ferry, the pre-
mier, arose to nounc the decision of
the cabinet council this morning, he was
loudly Kissed by the ~gallaries. He barely
finished his declaration, when a number of
deputies of the right sprang to their feet
yelling: Down with the wretch while
above could be heard the voice of Clemen-
ceau, as he fairly screamed. Traitors
1t twas sometime before order was restored,
and had it not been for the presence of
troops there is hardly any doubt that yio-
lence would have been done. During the
scene in the chamber, the crowd outside
became a bowling mob, and made several
attempts to pass the guards in order to
get inside the building. but it was kept
back by the determined attitude of the
military.

1t is said that our first parents were not
troubled by dyspepsia, and that they knew
nothing OF debility, liver complaint, or
malarious diseases. But the Children of
Adam, from Cain down t. the present
time, have inherited bad blood and a host
Of other disorders, most Of which can be
driven out by the timely use of Browns
Iron Bitters. Mr.. J.. D. Rodefer Of
Greendale, Va, was cured of a bad case
Of eczema by this valuable medicine, and

NEW YORK, March s0.-Promptel by
curiosity, many person strolled through
~Sixty-sixth street during the afternoon
stopping in front of Gen. Grants housI
to gaze at the building. The shades o
the front larlor windows were lowered al
day. The inner blinds of the general
sleeping room were hut with the slati
open. About 3 o'clock the general
wife stood for some minutes at tn,
window on the third floor, and after look.
ing for some minutes at the watchers be-
low drew down the shade and closed the
shutters. The curtains in the general $
library or study were rolled up all day and
ladies of the household were several times
seen in the room. Harrison, the gener-
ais personal attendant, once came out to
mail papers and letters at Sixty-sixth
street and Madison avenue.
A watcher inquired as to the generals
condition.
He is no better l fear was the re-
ply. IF you break your leg and it pains
you very much, you know its broken; but
even if the pain is less for the time, the
break is there all the same. The general
has felt easier to-day, but fear really is
no better"
Liyeried messengers rang the bell at
short intervals throughout the day; per-
sonal messages of sympathy and inquiry
are constantly coming from friends and
interested persons in the city andout oft.
A gentleman who called at A O'Clock
with extraordinary anxiety to see Col.
Fred Grant or Col Badeau, was told that
members of the family must deny them
selves all. At 4:l5 DIR. Douglas returned
to the house after a brief absence.
The doctor was asked if he thought the
end would com during the night, In
answer he said: II think not; but the
general is now passing through a stage
incident to the disease and frankly l can
not tell if the end will come tonight,
The general is growing weaker and
weaker. These words were spoken with re-
serve and carried conviction TO the nearer,
which none OF the bulletins had done.
DIR. Douglas remained all night DIR.
Shrady soon Joined him Tor the same pur-
pose.
AT 9. p. m, Romero, the Mexican
minister, called at the house. His stay
was short. When asked on Fifth avenue
about the patient and outlook he said:
"Of course, no one can tell with GER
tainty. The disease until recently was
within the power of the doctors but now
has gone quite beyond them"
At 1875 DR.. Douglas stated that Gen.
Grant was feeling much better.
DIR. Shrady, consulting physician,
thinks Gen. Grant might rally from the
present attack and live some time.
At 1l:45 Senator J.. b. Chaffee left
Grants residence. He said the general
had just been put to bed and that, as com
pared with his condition t~wenty-four
hours ago, the general was better. When
