Atlanta, Oct 8.—A pretty little romance lias just reached ail interesting culmination in Rabun county. At the base of the Tiger mountain, half a mile off the main road leading to Clayton, resides a sober old farmer named George W. Dillard, who has a wife and two sons. Early last summer Mr. Dillard received a letter from his w*e'i brother, whom he had not seen since 1849. At that time James McCurrie was a young man, as was also George W. Dillard. The news had reached Georgia of the wonderful gold discoveries in California. Among those who were full of the excitement wero McCurrie and Dillard. They bad perfected all arrangements for going thither, and were bidding the family goodby, when Dallard faltered. The tearful eyes of McCurrie's young sister touched his heart, especially as she was weeping f*r him and not for her brother. Throwing down his bundle, he declared that he would stay if the girl would marry bim. To this she cheerfully agreed, s«Dttlard remained a Georgia farmer, while McCurrie jumped into the stage coach and was borne away. Since that time he has never been heard of. TO HAVE THE Chicago, Oct 8.—It seemed as though all Illinois had that the metropolis should outdo St Louis in the grandeur and heartiness of the reception accorded the chief magistrate, and the surging masses were on hand long before the arrival of the train that brought the distinguished party to the city. As it rolled into the depot cheer upon cheer rose from the multitude, and when the president appeared the applause, blended with the booming of cannon, was deafening. So great was the crush that there was some delay in getting the carriage containing Mr. Cleveland, with Governor Oglesby and Mayor Roche, in the line of march in tbe grand procession. All along the line the streots were densely packed, and the greeting was most cordial. Minneapolis, Oct. 6.—Aftor a debate which had altogether consumed nearly nloa hours and extended over two days, the lateral Assembly of the Knights of LalKH decided last evening, hy a small mo joriiy 006 of the 325 delegates who voted upon the question, that Joseph B.

The prote»tt against Gaorge Schilling and C. F. X'ib, o£ D.

EVERY ONE IS BECOMING lat while ho was not now in any dangerous condition for a man of his years, he waa nevertheless experiencing a spell of poor health. Up to three weeks ago Fish had always been favored with an excellent appetite—no inmate of the prison seemed to relish his food more than Mr. Ffth did. But about three w«oks ago his appetite failed, and sinoe then he had been ailing more or lees, Mr. Fish did not appear to be suffering, however, from any special illness and he was one of tho most patient, well disciplined, uncomplaining men in Auburn. He is now employed at light work in the shoe factory, his business being to put the tags on the unmanufactured goods just after they leave the cuttAV hands and before they go into the hands of the sewers and finishers. w. b. washburn. warning.

Mr. Washburn, with bis wife, came from Greenfield yesterday morning. He went to the City hall, while his wife went to tfce women's meeting at the First church, and there received the news of her husband's death. Nor was there any opposition to the ooeeptnnce of the credentials of C. F. Murray, the representative of the Printers and Newspapermen's assembly, No. 64, of New York, who had been objected to on account of hif local having been suspended for arrears. This was a parallel case to that of Buchanan's, but Murray's popularity and proverbial good luck stood him in good stead. Ia the case of the two delegates from D. A. 10, Powderly's district, who were objected to by D. A. 185, on the ground that they wore connected with the same trade, the assembly decided in short order to seat the delegation. A delegate from D. A. 68, of San Francisco, was also seated over the protests on technical grounds. The private decorations wero on a magnificent scale. Historical scenes, made realistic by excellent wax figures of great leaders, from Washington down, were profusely displayed. "Welcome" was every where framed iu letters of living green. The triumphal arch spanning Monroe street, under which the procession passed, rests upon two upright columns thirty feet high. It is a mass of bunting, smilax and emblematic statuary. Thirtyeight golden stars represent the states, and in tho center of the span is a representation of the national arms, supporting a marble bust of Columbia.

He was re-elected in 1872 and 1873, and in 1874 was chosen to fill the unexpired term oftjbarles Sumner in th« United States senate. He continued in th« senate until 1875. Harvard gave him th« degree of LL. D. in 1872. It was with mingled feelings, therefore, that Dillard reajJ thfe letter from his old comrade. McCurrie stated that he had worked against adverse fortune, declining to write to the folks at home until he could strike it rich, bnt every year found him growing poorer, and now, old, feeble and poor, his great wish was to look once more upon his native hills. That he could not do unless he was sent money enough upon which to return.

Mrs. Cleveland was taken ill before the procession reached Jackson street. She managed, however, to hold out until that street was reached. Then she left the procession and was assisted into the Union League club housd, at the corner of Fourth avenue. The most assiduous attention was rendered, without any excitement being caused, and she speedily recovered. Mrs. Potter Palmer was summonod as soon as Mrs. Cleveland reached the club house, and when the latter was sufficiently recovered to bo moved she was driven to the hotel, which (ho reached at 1:40. I Some time was occupied in the consideration of the cose of the delegates from national Assembly 216, of Massachusetts, 212, of Philadelphia, and 214, of Chester, Pa. All three had been organized since July 1. Ultimately the delegates from 213 and 214 were recognized, and the credentials of 216, the Shoemakers National Trade assembly, organized at Brockton, Mass., were thrown out, upon the ground that the district had held no meeting since its charter had been issued, and thaft consequently it could not have electod a delegate. This much accomplished, the report of the committee was received as a whole, and the assembly was formally organized. To-day the assembly baa got down to its regular work in right earnest. Miss Fish, since her father's confinement, has made her home at Auburn, so as to be near him and see 'him as often as possible. The poor little waif whose mother, Bailie Ileber, the sweet singer, died In giving birth to, at Lconia, o few miles out in Mew Jersey, is being cared for by Miss Fish. The little girl is now nearly 2 years old, and it will be remembered that Mr. Fish claimed, after Miss Itcber's tragic death, that he bad been secretly married to the fair young cantatrlce just before the collapse of the bonk.
