Thus ThanksI giving passed without a single mill in operation. To-day and to-morrow there will Ik* in operation but four mills, with a combined capacity of 2,725 barrela, but -.000 barrels or more will probably be cut oil next week. This state of affairs baa not been brought about by concerted action but by force of circumstances, Monday's advance in freights leaving the miller no other alternative than to stop grinding.

The event which hue called us together ifi of that sad, unexpected and overwhelm- , ing character that excites feelings difliuult to express, and makes oilenco probably more appropriate than many words. X shall * therefore say but very little in assuming ) the duties you have, assigned to me. I j have known our deceased friend and fel* ! low citizen, Thomas A. Hendricks, late Vice President of tli? United States, nearly , all my life. We were at the same college over forty years nyo. I was with him in j the convention of 1850, which framed the present constitution of ludiana. I was with him at tho reunion of the surviving members of that body in this * city only last month, a meeting in which he took the greatest possible interest, and 1 know that matters connected with that 1 event were somewhat in his thoughts up to tho last hours of his life. When we were together at that memorable rennion ( last month, realizing that only thirty-five r were living out of tho 150 composing that body, and that tho rest must speedily follow, 1 said in my address to the survivors Q 'Who will bo the next togo? Who tho i: last to survive?" ,, THE SUDDEN SUMMONS. j Little did either of us think then that t lito iloatli trnrlii Bn nnnti nnnu'or tho first part of tho question. 1 joined liim j again in the Thirty-third Congress abont <] a third of a century ago, and now that he a is called away I am the only survivor of E of the Senators and Representatives then e in Congress for Indiana; but it is possible f there may be one other now living in a v distant State. 1 knew his father very well, .v also his uncle, Governor Wm.

Hendricks a great many 8 years, and I may bay intimate with him r socially and publicly. lie wasagood citi- ? xen and neighbor, prudent and uble states- J man, an boneat man, trying to do his fnll r duty in his day and generation, and he 8 deserves every mark of respect and esteem ' that it is possible for his countrymen to v render to his memory," . It was decided to appoint a committee \ of fifteen, with Senator Harrison as chair- c man, to receive tho President and other J distinguished gentlemen, who will attend J! the funeral, and a general committee oi thirty was appointed to attend to the de- ? tails of tho iuneral and do all iu their 1 power to make the memorial observance 0 attended with ail the matka (f respect ? and esteem which Mr. Hendricks' fellow- !' citizens desire to pay him. Of this com- 11 mittee Hon. Oscar B. Hord, a law part- F ner of the deceased, was appointed chair- J man, and it was divided into the neces- 8 sary sub-committees.

As the transaction had been completed a letter was sent to the representatives of Messrs. Field and Sage from which the following is an extract: The extensive interests of the commonwealth in large tracts of land at South Boston alow? the line and near the business of the railroad, and the great concern of the people in tho maintainance and development of the railroad into which so great a sum of the public money bad been pat, demanded the highest degree of caution that the bonds should not pass into the ownership of speculators who would act more for their private enrichment than for the advantage of the State and her people." The Governor and Council were convinced that Messrs. Field and Sage had openly advocated in the directors meeting and elsewhere the purchase nf the State's bonds for the purpose of compelling the unsecured creditors, by a threat of foreclosure, to accept a low figure for their claims and thereby enable Field and 8age to make money. The letter adds that rather than sell to Field and Sage the State would hold the bonds in its treasury. UNHAPPY M*AIN. A Revolution aoil Anarchy Among the Pot* kblllttes of thp Future.

The County of Fulton, In Which Atlanta I* , Situated, Carried by 226 Slajorlly?Tha i Temperance Colored People tha Fac- I tor*In tha Hot Battle of UalloU. t ] Atlanta, Nov. 2G.?There were grave 1 fears that there would be trouble at the ' election on the liquor question 1 yesterday. Right on the eve of thn bat- 1 tie both Bides got nervous as to the result. J Although the leaders in their public J proclamations expressed confidence, by v the very nature of the contest, the issues involved and the uncertainty of the con- J trolling (actor, the colored vote, the result J was doubtful. While it is true that the ^ Prohibitionists have claimed an ex- b elusive possession of the moral fiide to 8: the controversy, it would be a mistake to ? suppose that only the lower strata of so- u ciety in Atlanta have aupported the other * party. Some of the most respectable and honorable white gentlemen of the city ?j have energetically opposed prohibition, u tirat as being impracticable in a place the J* size of Atlanta, and secondly bound to in- 11 flict tremendous material damage in driv- ? ing away trade and depreciating the value of the real estate. b The excitement commenced early. At J" half-past 5 in the morning the colored J* "wets" were brought out of the old depot, ?" or "bull-pen," as it is known, where ttiey had been kept all night, leaating on the Jjj barbecued 'possum. This was on the edge u of town. The anti-Prohibitionists march- w. ed to the polls shortly after 8 o'clock. The Prohibitionists were later putting in an appearance. Every colored church was r< a rendezvous for Prohib.tionists. There are oniy iwo pouing places in Aiiunca, and six in the country outaide. So unpreeedentedly large was the vote ol the city iei that each place waa provided with three eti ballot-boxea. Heretofore there hua only tjj been one ballot-box at each precinct. . Men formed in linea according to the iirst Tf letters of their surnames, and the ballot- dl boxes at each precinct were placed several eel yards apart, although all were in the ~a tame building. ^ GOOD NATURE 07 THE ELECTION. The white leaders on both sides had :ome to an understanding in order to prerent a threatened riot. The saloon men aJ wlemnly agreed not to let any of their Ik lupporters have any liquor, and to their jredit be it said they kept their promise. 1 drunken man was not Been on the 0f itreets all day. Then it was mutually pli igreed that there should be no challeng- de ng except in extraordinary cases.

The polls opened dil it 8 o'clock, and hundreds of men were in be ine at both precincts, two hours before op hen. Blacks and whites, "wets" and tei 'drys" took their places indiscriminately. W for the most part there was great good if I lature displayed. The "wets appeared I03 o have the beat of it in the first part of lie morning. Thoy came in droves, and wa vere wildly greeted by thoee of their per- tin masion who had already voted. 80 great Co vas the demand for vehicles that a draft mc lad to be made on surrounding towus. of rhe ProhibitionistB got fifty buggies, carriages and wagons from Macon.

The Prohibition- up eta rallied their reserve strength in the P* atter part of the day, and won a victory an iy the almost superhuman efforts of the thi euiperance colored men, who made ira- tid jloring appeals to their race not to be In jought up by the liquor dealers. The of :ounty outside the city proper gave a pro- by tibition majority of 643, so that Atlanta Israeli went against prohibition by 327, >ut as the election was by the county at < arse. Atlanta is included in the result for sci >rohibition. no Local optionista claim this as the greatist victory gained in the United States. mi Considering the intensity of feeling on J)( >oth sides, the election was a model of or- Jg ler. There was an absolute freedom from ** Irunkenness or fights. The anti-Prohibitionists are deeply ihagrined, and for the sake of peace the >rohibitlon leaders advised that no dem- ] mstrationbe held. But the younger ele- 0. nent among the Prohibitionists could not >e restrained, and they formed an ira- DI>| >romptu procession, and serenaded the v , jewapaper offices with their ear-splitting Vl: louthern yells.

The nephew eports that Mrs. Davis was seated with ler feet on the fender, while Davis was ying on the bed playing with a couple of nstols.

The removal of T. J. Berry, formor postmaster of this place, without just cause, as it iB conceded by all that he discharged the duties of that office with credit to himself and to the entiro satisfaction of a great majority of our citizens, has created a stir. Mr. Berry's adherence to the Democratic party has never been questioned heretofore. It is now understood that a large petition was sent in requesting, probably demanding, his removal, and it is further believed that the whole thing was of the same fraudulent nature that has been of late attracliDK so much attention at Washington, aa all efforts to find out the actual number of signers and their names has proved futile. Mr. Berry was a confederate soldier, and to-day carries an empty sleeve. The bosses appreciating the fact that a fatal mistake was made in his removal havo chosen this as an opportune time to congregate ami dovetail if possible the several factions in their ranks in this, Nicholas and Uiliner counties, preparatory to the general organization for next year's campaign.
