THURSDAY, DECEMBER 16, 1880, Senator Brown, of Georgia, spoke yes- terday on Burnside'’s bill providinu for de- voting parLof the proceeds of the sale of public Innds to the promotion of education in tho States of tho grentest fillteracy, Ie must have surprised some of his Southern brethe ren, as fis speceeh was spirited, Mberal, manly, and patriotle. Ile accepted the re- sults .of tho War, and repudiated the strict - construction = of - tha - Constitu- tion policy, of the Democrats, acknowl: edged that New. England’s supremacy over his section was owing to the better edu- cational facilities prevalling thero, had kind words to sny for the negro, and thanked Senator Burnside and other Repubileans for Introducing the bi. Senator Brown was listened to attentively, and his. remarks seemed to make 2 deep impression on the Atepublican Senators, Much was expected front Senator Brown, but his speech of yes- terday goes far to justify expectation, It may be the commencement of a “new de- parture * on the part of the progresslye nen of the South. ‘Tum Crown lawyers are having a rather un- pleasant time of it in dreland. They can hardly get Juries to serve, or when they do get them they will not convict; their wit- nesses do not give such evidence ns they would wish; and, notwithstanding that the Judges lend thein assistanee once in a while, they have so far been unable to secure con- viction in any important case. Power, who was charged. with mitilating a Baillit In Kerry, was. acquitted at tho Cork | Assizes yesterday, although tho evidence against him was pretty positive. In the case of Healy and Walsh, the farmer (Man- ing) who charged them with fntimtdating him about two months ago, swore yesterday that they did no such thing, agd, of course, both the accused were triffiphantly ac. quitted.. They predict an requittal of Par- nell nt Dublin, The Jandlords, or their friends, have taken to writing threatening letters,- Parnell, Davitt, and Dillon have re- celyed messages of this nature, Frost France comes the Intelligeneo that the De Lesseps Panama Canal scheme has met with a support wholly unexpected; that. Relnach, whom Rochefort challenged for publishing his letters, is Gambettn’s seere- tary; and that Baron Harden Wiekey, the fire-enting Franeo-Irlshman, has ‘made his peace with Meyer, the editor of the Gaulois. Mine, Thiers’ funeral took place yesterday, Gambetta aud his enemy Buffet were con- spictous iu the procession. Rochefort alludes to Gambetta in his paper as “a! Mar, arobber, a forger, a false Genoese,” and to cap the climax calls him;"a‘wretch worse than MacMahon or Thiers.” “The France hints that Rochefort is insane, ‘and for that reason will withhold on article which has begn written about him. 1 Jones, an, Englishmai who owns property In Ireland, on which the London Linge says he hay expended $124,000, has nade “himself distiked by his tenautry Witas Be: ‘and his nelghbors bagause he has refused to take rents equal to Grifith’s valuation from his tenants, and-beeauso ha has. written articles opposing tho demands of tenants generally in MucMflanwsa Magazine and other periodicals. Ile has been:¢boycotted. The Steamship Company have refused to iransfer hts cattle to England, and the lail- way Company which furnished them trans- portation to Dublin is likely to suffer for do- ingso. Mr. Jones and his family havo todo all their own work, as they can find no per- sons who will work for then. Snoutp Judge Woods’ nomination bo con- firmed Ohio will have three representatives onthe Supreme Bench. It iy possible thas Stanley Matthews will bo. appolnted to suc- ceed Judge lunt, and some say that Judge Clifferd’s place may bo filled by the appoint- ment of another Ohio Inwyer, which would give the Buckeye State a mujority of tho Court. The Southern potiticlans are much displeased at the appolntinent of Judge Wouils, They say ho is not a representative man of thelr section, Tho Pennsylvanians tre not pleased elthor; they think that, as Judge Strong hailed from their State, a Penn- sylvautan should be his successor, Now, Ilnols bas no representative on the Bench,” yet It does not complain, eee es. Grant. has entered with great-en-, thusiasin Into the work of pushing tho Nle- fragua-Canal project, and Js recelying very considerable support and encouragement, ‘The ex-President does not regard the De Lesseps Canal scheme with much favor, and Inthnates that its completion under Euro- pean patronage is n menace to this country, Many of tho supportors of Gen.
