ern district Of Georgia feel that il this iniilc-
ton the dispensation of providence has taken
from the sphere OF his usefulness and the Gil
cults lie which he was universally beloved pro

and genius made him stand among the nrst IN
the hearts Of his cOuntrymen.
Resolved That in the death OF Hon. Lucins
O. c. Lamar the American judiciary, the legal
profession. the country at large and ms naive
south have lost one Of the foremost cluzens OF
the repu blic-oue whose great services as pat
not. statesman, diplomat and Jurist VIII ever
be remembered with pride and pleasure by Tue
people whose welfare engaged the best energies
OF his mind and heart. Justice Lamar, Whlle
true southeruer and q fearless and eloquent
champion Of his section, had the quality OF

airic impulses that in all his controversies with
his sectional opponents lie never
forgot that there was an Amer

reaper, he leaves as precious legacy the bright
lessons of a we'll rounded career, in which his
craftsmanship learning, judicial wisdom and
unselhsh patriotism Won the admiration OF all
parties and all sections and disRrmed oppoS-
ton. Il is not too much 70 say that among
che many eminent Americans Of our day few
will leave behind them names and records so
stainless and SO splendid as the name OF
Lamar, and the chapter It will ill in our
annals

BUrrIHo FOR BEER.
A Curious Kind of Match in San
Francisco.


From the San Francisco Examiner.
Buttlng for beer or coin is new sport IN
San Francisco, but, Judging from the en-
thusiasm displayed at a contest Of this kind
4 yesterday afternoon. it promises TO become
very popular with colored sports in San
I Francisco. About fifty of them gathered
in lumber yard near the foot Of Telegraph
hill to see Joe Adams and George Washing
ton Briggs settle dispute as to which was
/ the champion butter Of Broadway.
Both men were as black as the ace Of
| spades, and each was confident that he could
OUTPUT the ether In short order.
Ihey were pretty evenly matched in
weight, and their bullet-shaped heads had
been shaved for the contest. Adams picks
up nvlng oy playing a banjo IN beer sa-
loon, While bis opponent is cook on q scow.
When time was called the men faced each
other, and each took hold OF a piece OF wood
little larger than a walking cane. Adams
grasped tbs stick in the middle with both
hands, while Briggs took hold Of each end.
are you readyi-den gol" yelled the COL
ored gentleman from Jessie street, who
eondescended to act as starter. timekeeper
and referse. The next instant there was a
crash as the two heads cams together with
force enough to crush an ordinary mans
skull, but it was only fseler, and the pair
OF human billy goats looked at each other
and grinned.
Go again" shouted the man from Jessie
street, and the heads met with a thud that
could be heard half block away. When
toe men looked up this time there was
frightened look on George WashinRton's
face, and small stream OF blood was trick
ing down from the top OF his head. The
Adams contingent immediately offered two
to one on the banjo player.
de can't butt a little bit; he's knocked
out now 10 for him, Joe,n and similar
cries filed the air from Joe's admirers,
while the Briggs faction locked decidedly
blue.
go it again." shouted the referee, and
once more the heads met with a sound
similar TO chat of a ferryboat crashing
against the piles of the slip on q stormy day
This time Adams got decidedly the worst
OF It, for Briggs crown landed fair on his
nose, and Adams let go the stick and seized
his nose, from which the blood poured In
lively stream, with both hands
"Fouli-dat's foul" yelled a score Of
excited men. while Briggs friends threw
their hats into the air and yelled for JOY.
That amt no foul. Butt him again
George" and. acting on his friends advice,
George lowered his head and launched him
self at Joe like a bolt from a catapult.
Joe got the blow fair in the stomach, and
he went down as If struck by sledge-
hammer
OATS another foul. We claim de fight"
yelled Joes friends; but the referee either
thought Adams had been fairly defeated, or
else had placed his money on Briggs, for he
decided the matter in Briggs favor, and
then taking the victor by the arm he
wended his way to the nearest saloon to
celebrate the victory.

to the cloister by the vows of
poverty, chastity and obedience. The loud
and distinct answers proved that each
novice bound herself willingly and cheer

The Race for the Senatorship.
qndex-Appeal Richmond letter.

llu0cG-ltltul LossCAsj
The announcement from Governor
Mckinney that he would consider it a
high honor if at toe close of his term as
Governor he should be sent to the United
States Senate caused very little if any
surprise. 1t has been thought for q
good while that the Governor might be
q candidate for the Senate.
Just here it might be stated that the
reports that have been printed in some
papers to the effect that the Governor
appointed General Hunton to the va
cancy caused by MIR. Barbour's death
with the understanding that the Gen.
eral would retire in his favor when the
Legislature should elect are entirely
without foundation. The appointment
was made absolutely without conditions,
and Hunton is as free to be candidate
if the Governor enters the race as he will
be il his Excellency decides not to be o
candidate.
Fitz Lee and Tom Martin are both
avowed candidates for the Senate, and it
is quite likely that Holmes Conrad will
aspire to this position. So II is not i'm
probable that ct least five persons will
finally be in the race,
