CARRoLLToN. GA, Nov. 25.-The little
cigarette got in its work up at FELTON, last
night. A little grandson Of Hon. Austin
Ayres had just commenced using the much
used cigarette. to which his parents and
grandparents seriously objected. The little
fellow was determined not to be outdone so
he got a box OF matches. package Of
cigarettes and went out behind shuck pen
TO smoke to his hearts content. BY some
means the boy dropped lighted match in
the broom sage grass, which ignited quickly
and flashed up. catching the shuck house.
The fire was communicated to dozen stacks
Of fodder, and thence to the crib and to
dwellings. One thousand bushels of seed,
5000 bundles OF fodder, q l-horse wagon,
the residence and much other property was
burned as a result Of the boys smoking
spree. The damage was over 81 500.

and W. b. Ives, member Of parliament, will
be taken into the cabinet as minister of

BERLIN, Nov. 25.-At the Thanksgiving
dinner at the Kaiserof last evening Will
lam Walter Phelps, United States ambassa-
dor, made some remarks concerning Prince
Bismarck, which have excited general
astonishment and considerable disapproval.
MIR. Phelps went out of the course of his
address to say United States citizens
at the table remembered with gratitude the
friendly attitude maintained by the
ex chancellor toward their native land and
many pleasant. friendships which he had
sustained with their compatriots The
magnitude, unity and glory OF the German
empire, Mr.. Phelps continued, were Prince
Bismarck's work. His opinions we're
respected to-day by the whole world as fully
as they were when he was in office.
just why Mr.. Phelps should have made
these remarks is a mystery. His relations
to the emperor we're oonsid3yod &c be ex-
ceptionally cordial That he should have
selected an occasion when his official rank
was especially Conspicuous to praise the
most violent antagonist OF the government
TO which he is accredited is generally re-
garded to have been at least evidence OF
questionable taste.
