YAterday tiro highly important amwt*
were made in this city, connected with a
matter of the greatest importance to the
people of the State of Georgia.
One of the persona arrested waa Joaeph
Fry who it a nephew or other near rota
tive of Footer Blodgett—a boarder at hie
house and member of Me family, and who
has been hie confidential secretary or
clerk in the office of Saporintcadcmt
of the Wcotorn and Atlantic Rail
road. . the Other* raetUbte of* promi
nent mercantile firm in the city. Utcae
parties were both arreated at the instance
of Foster Blodgett, who (Staged 'them,
under oath, with cheating and swindling
the State, or the Mate Road, tnt
of sixteen humtred dollars 1
The parties were brought before
Judge B. D. Smith, If. P
gave bond in the sum of Tiro
Thousand Btffy l for their 0ge*raaae
at the Superior Court to answer to the
charge. Fry, as soon as the bond was
given, forfeited hi* seoagniaaaoe and left
the city. The merchant arrested has do
itiaa of leaving, bat is going to stay, at
tend court, and see the oaae oat—so we
to be made ? State Indorsement foj mil-
roads, used to lie limited to nlxuit 810,
000 per mile, through n hilly ounfry—
not in Uiu uubtok* n level in nil the pint-
lands of Southern Ooorgin, where but
little nr no grading is to be done.
The Cert,-raviUe and Van Wart Rail
road low a State indoraeiuuit of 812,000
per mile, though it iH nimih.g through a
country where it is likely that it will not
pay stockholders anything like u fair
return upon the cost of construction.
Wo trust the next Legislature will put
an end to the indorsement of railroad
bonds, except under greater caution than
haa heretofore ban exercised.
Roads chartered and having this in
dorsement arc objects of speoilstiou, and
men scramble for possession of the char
tor, solely with the view of handling the
indorsed bonds
We will say more upon this subject at
another time.
For more than a year, certain partice
have made it their special business to
watch narrowly, in order to learn where
the earnings of the State Road were go
ing to, and exactly what tiacann of
the half minion of dotlan which Foster
Blodgett onght to have paid into the
State Treasury. They have carefully
picked up threads here and there, and
preserved them with sleepless vigilance,
giving heed to bat little else. They, it
seems, had either made some discoveries
which were tangible, or were on the eve
of getting e doe that was likely to make
some nab developments, when Foster
Blodgett, who mast here known or sus-
pooted what was going on, oauaed the
arrest of th* persons alluded to, oluwgiug
them with awimlling the State Road in
the cam of $1,000!
with him a large amount of monoy—per
lisps I veuty-five or thirty thousand dol
lore, more or less -which justly belongs
to the people of Georgia, and that he
will novor be seen here egain, unices he
is caught and brought bsek by force,
which we hope will be the case.
It is strange that these arrests should
have been made at the instance of Fos-
tcr Blodgett; that Uio sum involved, as
nurnod in the warrant is only 81,000;
that tho investigation before tho magis
trate should have lioon so quiotly con
ducted—waroely any ono knowing any
thing of it, and that hail should have
been fixed at the pitiful sum of 82,000,
and that Fry should have had an oppor
tunity to escape 1 All these things arc
auspicious.
Wo hope the earnest effort to unearth
the secrets of the financial administration
of lttiUoek.and Blodgett will be pursued
vigorously, till they are all fully unearth
ed and exposed to the public gase ; and
that whoever may be found to he guilty,
may be made to suffer the extreme pen
city of We law.
Railroad Hlr|«.
Some time ago Col. Klulbfrt issued
call lor n Convention or the Corporators
of the miotgsttiied Railways in Guorgia,
to meet in this city to-morrow.
This call states thnt the loot Legislature
chartered thirty-tiro Roads, granting thorn
“ liberal aid," by obliging the State to
iudorae their bonds.
We do not know that this Convention
will assemble. We have no notice to that
effect, and think it not unlikely the call
will l>c a failure—though the corporators
may assemble.
We, however; * are tired of State in
dorsement of Rallrond Bonds—especUQly
such indorsement as lias beau given in
the past; and to illustrate our Opposition
we will toko a case in point, vix : The
Brunswick and Albany Railroad.
The Governor hi his hotter to 'the Ku
Klux Committee says, the State Hood
lias endorsed tho bonds of thte road to
tho amount of Jt/leen thousand daihtrt jter
mile—in goltL
That road is located through a flat pine
laud country almost barren and unpro
ductive, and not promising umoh support
to a railroad. The eouotiy being ao near
ly level, hut little gaadfef it*or bee been
necessary. It is said that the oost of
construction thus far haa not exoeedod
eight or ten thousand dollars per mile,
while the State's endorsement is 815,000
—m gold on caoh.mile I
This son of 815,080 on each mile in
gold, with interest in gold, the State is
bound for, unless the Stockholders of
the road shgjl rggalsrfy pagrj the intersat
on tho bond|, and pay tho bonds them
selves at maturity.
How fltt0«t ttnald be for those who
own or control the aaad, te setae* to pay|
the interest on those bonds SO
by tlm Slate I In that ease the State
would be compellod to step forward and
pay the interest, take pOteeaioif of the
road and sell it under its lien, in which
cane it wusrid in all probability bring
from 86,800 to 88,800 per mile —perhaps
not half the sarnat lor which the Sate
is liable.
This Weald leave the remainder of the
815,000 per mile to be paid by the Btate
004 hdten from the pocket* of
The Macon Telegraph.
Tbae he* been for some time post,
considerable complaint at the irregularity
of tho TUajruph in reaching tho newspa
per offices in this city, and Jadgo Dun
ning, oar attentive l’ost Muster, has
many times been asked why it did not ar
rive in doe lime.
Yestgrday afternoon, about U o'clock,
he oomc to oar office with Sunday's issue
of that paper, addressed to Tut Sen,
which onght to huvo reached us by mail
the day before. It had been sent through
by iipirm in a separate mail-bag, and the
Express Company, not delivering freight
on Sunday, did not carry it to tho Poat-
office natil to-day. / •
Mr Clisby ought to have his mail made
up and put in the city Foat-offlco in time
to oomri up on the morning train from
Macon. This would cure the oomplaiut.
We return thanks to Judge Dunniug
for his courtesy in informing us whero
the trouble is. Uc has, in several cases
within our knowledge, taken unusual
pains to have oil mail matter passing
through his oflloo promptly delivered and
irregularities cured.

We were forcibly'imprcssed with the
necessity of the establishment of s branch
of the Society tor the Freventiuu of Cru
elty to Animals in this city, yesterday,
by seeing one of a span of horses driven
through tho streets, upon whose neck the
oullar hud mudo a sore an inch deep and
three inches long. Thu tup of the
collar had been opened, hut the liamu-
stiap worked back and forth in tho quiv
ering flesh at overy movement of the suf
fering animal. Tho driver drove stolidly
along, apparently unmindful of the agony
he was inflicting on tho horse. It was
the nnsnimons verdict of ull who wit

was more of a brute, a thousand to one,
than the animals ho was driving.

We learn from a private letter received
by a gentleman in Griflln, that a horrible
la artier waa oommittod in Macon oonuty
last Thursday, on the person of a Mr.
Joiner, in that county, under tho follow
ing circumstances :
Tho widow of a Mr. Devcroux married
a Mr. Lester, and after his doatli married
a Mr. Join or. lly tho first husband, sho
T . ■ , „ , ... . had a sou Dovercux, who during her first
It» 1 relieved that Fry has carried off ... , . •
... . . , . , and ssoond widowhood, attended to busi
ness fur her. After her marriage to Join
er, be attended to her husinees. Several
notes had been presented to him slgnod
by Devoreux, which were paid; but on
a reoont occasion Mr. Joiner had de
clined to pay a note of considerable
amount, when his wife told him thnt he
must pay itor leave the plantation quickly,
and threatoued to leave herself if it was not
done, Mr. Joiner replied Hist ha was in
no way responsible for tne note, and
would neither pny it or L-nvo the plane,
and iutemled to gather it.
The next day young Devoreux came
and on the return of Mr. Joiner from tho
Held, asked fur a private eonvuraatiou,
which was granted. Mr. Joiner refloated
his determination not to pay the note,
when Mr. D. rose up and fired at him
Tho shot missed, when Mr. Joiner caught
him and threw him out of tho pioaxu
Mr. Joiner went to his room to get his
pistol from under tho head of his bed,
but it had been removed. Young Bov
CMS* followed him and fired the aacond
shot, which struck Mr. Joiner, und then
the third, which killed him.
Mrs. Joiner then gathered up what
mousy she had, gave it to her son, who
fled, and is still at huge. It is supposed
that aba will be arms toil ss accessory to
the killing.

A svieutifle * practitioner of medicine,
aud one who usually givip his mind to
tho study of every subject which may
oourt investigation, has laxui wool
gathering over a liottlo of water from the
famed Ponce de Leon Spring, which line
attracted so much of the pnblic attention
lately, n»id yesterday gave us the benefit
of hit anal} sis of tbe virtues of Ponce de
Loon. .He says that when the fountain
wan first diaoeverpd by the railroad hands
it was a spring of pure, cold, fret-stone
water, aud that iu enter to make it avail
able anil arvo os a convenience for the
workmen, that numerous loga were piled
up around it, and the gentle, placid
spring otherwise cultivated. That among
the lugs thus used wns one of poplar, on
of red Oak, one of pine, and a lot
of rotten state used iu the oonatauotiunof
the curbing. That the sole mineral (so-
called) virtuos of the spring on wholly
due to tho chemical combination of the
Maher above mautiouod, and as soon ss
this becomes extracted that the water will
be as usual, or may bo insipid.
Now, if this is tamo, it «poils the hopes
of many an old “played out" invalid, w ho
had cherished the thought of one day be
coming yonng aud vigorous by its won

The Chamber was crowded. Tho ne
groes were largely in the majority, and,
all tliu vcntillatiuu which I’at. Fitxgih-
bon was allowed to give did net suffice,
iu tho least, to rarify the Indcncd atmos
phere.
Tliroo cases were at uuoc continued.
When a felon wasn’t exaotly ready, or a
witness wns absent, tho case wont over
illl to-day.
At this rule 1,123 eases have been dis
posed of this year up to yesterday.
This shows a woudorful proffoiency some
where, and when that number was called,
DAK. STANTON
sung out "Keno.” He held the oord,
aud wheu Jouscu wcqt around to see if
tho keno was correct, ho told tho deulor
that it was, and that Dan. was entitled to
the pool. Wheu that individual walked
Up to the desk to get his money, his
Honor asked him if he was any kin to
Mr. Secretary Ed. Stanton. Bon. told him
he was first oousiu to that Cabinet officer,
and that ho hud acted ns a kind of sub-
clerk with him during tho late war. As
Bail, was a nigger and he had only been
kicking up a little rebellion, the war tax
wns put down at 810 and costs.
CATUEHIKE UUKliN
was too black for an ungel, aud smelt too
much like old gourds to be n desirable
partner in a long cotillion. She was
charged with being drnuk on the streets.
She hud no bolter semie than to own np.
When his Honor got so ashamed of Katie
that he could hardly look bar in tho face.
Ho kept uu shaming hor till at last she
offered him ten dollars to hush, which
closed the trade, and Jouscu took the
money, and Faddy Fite, sung “Wearing
of the Green.”
JOHN W ARD
was a nigger taken np in the Fourth
Ward. IIo is the chap who owns tho
ducks, aud wheu an officer came across
him he hnd almost finished enrsing the
wsy his ducks went, and turned his
anathemas towards a church meeting.—
Ho says he thought the gathering was n
ball, and ha not being oueof the invited
guests, ho simply wns venting his disgust
at the whole thing. The Mayor asked
Jonsen what tho price of ball-tickots in
that Ward, and Jonsen meekly replied
five dollars."
PRINCE EDWARD REO
had an interest in Ward's ducks, and
wheu those fowls wont where tho violets
bloom, it made him mod too. Ho took
on some beer, and uu officer thonght
Edward was drnuk. Hu thought that
ho never walked slraightor in his life.—-
However, ss lie said, one word brought
os two, and the first tiling Bd knew ho
wns iu tho jug without a red. His Hun-
or thought John wns tight, and charged
him ton dollars for his thoughts.
LUC WESTERS
looked like sho wus a Ku Klux, and the
witnesses said sho cursed like a circus
man. Leu said she did swear some, and
was glad that bIio was able to do ao. She
had stolon s comet from another girl, and
a calico dress liesiiles. Lon appeared to
tho Court that she was in neod of both
these articles—particularly tho oorset,—
Sho cursed and swore so that tho Court
was afraid ahe would looae what little

her exchequer would warrant a loan of

sent iu a plea of guilty. What lie was
pleading guilty to was a subject of wou
dor to all except the Court ond Jonsen.
There was a secret session of the Court
GEORGE WEAVER
was called for, bnt he was weaving his
way in some other direction, *nd Hid not
oppciw.
OEOHOK WASHINGTON
once cut his daddy's cherry tree with his
little hatchet, and old man George was
somewhat wroth wheu ho discovered it.
Upon inquiry, the embryo "Father of
his country" stepped up, likes little man,
and said : “ Father you know I cannot
lie Bill Jones cut that trot-." This
pleased the old man much, aud he said to
little George: “That's right, my son —
I'd rather yon would tell ten thousand
lies than to cut one < >f those trees;" aud
he patted George on the head, while Bill
Jones got off free. Not so with oar lat
ter day George. He hail not exactly cut
liis father's favorite tree, bnt ho had used
some very bad language, and altogether
liad acted very unbecoming an American
citizon of African proclivities, and when
asked about it by the Judge ho rather
“shucked” the question, and the oaso
was pnt off.
WALTER BRUCE
wns a Scotch nigger, and after having to-
kon a nip or two of Scotch whisky, he
felt liko McGregor, and had a perfect
contempt for white or block—was tread
ing his native heath, and would have it
out that way, if it cost him a law suit in
hell Added to this, Walter was very
profane and otherwiso noisy. His Honor
was of Sootcli descent himself, and said
unto him,
"Lochlel, Lochlel, beware of tho day
When the low Ian da ihall moot thoe in battle array.
For fear the lowlands wouldn’t moet
him, the Court ooncluded to tax him for
the risk, and Walter went up for ten tal
ents of trash.
After that, a saddle colored gentleman,
calling himself
GEO ROE WHITE
appeared on the boards. Goorge wasn't
white, and all the science of earth could
moko nothing of him but what he was.
George and the Mayor were both sorry
that ho got drunk, and tho latter gentle
man felt it so keenly that he let off G. W.
with a small fine of 810 and costs.
LITTLE MILLICAN
was the boy whoso case was continu
ed from Saturday. Liko all other
boys, when another chap throws at
and hits him on the head it is likely to
produce a coolness—this is natural for
boys, and when Millican returned tbo
compliment by phoking his tormentor
just a little. HU Honor rather admired
him for it, and let him off with jnsl costs
enough to pay tho policemen who arrest
ed him.
Tms was a bi-llt halt,
anil w hen Jonsen announced that the
show would oloso by acting upon the
ease of on individual by that name, all
hands felt better. The charge was drunk
and disorderly. It seems that a gentle
man carried homo a keg of boer on Sat
urday evening, and his wifo got glorious
before ho did. Like a good and sensi
ble man, ho had the ohargea transferred
from her account to liis own, paid the
fine, nothing more was said about it.

A youth who first gave his name as

sinoo aud put up at tho Fickcn House.
Not satisfied with what was set before him,
he began tn indiscriminate attack upon
whatever valuables came In his way. The
laudlady soon bsw that ho had a severe
attack of kleptomania, and applied to
Justice Johnson for advico as to what she

told her to send him np bofore him, and
let him work upon him some. Accord
ingly Brooks was arrested, and owned np
to tho theft of a necklabe, bracelet, ear-
bobs and several other articles of jowelry
which had boon missing from the house
for a week or so past. He was sent to
jail, and then he gave hU name as Alex

Thr Cuufederate Dead at Geltyshuf^.
Tho following list of th^ names of the
Confederate dead that remain upon the
battle-field at Gettysburg haa been fur
mailed ns by the Rev. Dr. Wills, of this
city, who has recently visited that lo
cality, and who went to the trouble of
obtaining the liat of names given below,
The Doctor informs us that the Legiala-’
turo of Pennsylvania has appropriated
$$5,000 for the purpose of removing these
remains to Antietum, where there is a
handsome cemetery donated by tho State
of Maryland as a burial place for those
brave men who perished while battling
for the South.
Though when iu Maryland those re
mains will not be in inhospitable soil,
would it not bo more seemly were they
gathered up and brought home to tho
South und deposited in some one of our
wiuiy beautiful cemeteries that have been
sot apart as perpetual testimonials to the
memory of tho Confederate dead ? Their
comrades in battle lie here. Here the
loving hand of woman can beautify and
adorn their graves ; and annually pay a
tribute to their memory. The Confede
rate dead arc peculiarly th® property of
our women. Tho remains of Georgia
soldiers Bhould rest in Georgia soil where
their graves can be cared for l>y Georgia
women. What do the pcoplo think
about the matter ?

A (rood Joke.
A riek joke is told of Tim Murpk;, oi
Atlanta, uow dead, wliioh is too good to
bo lost
Tim was traveling ou tho West Feint
Road, on a train controlled by Conductor
Moore and Knginecr Buice. Ono night
about two o’clock tho train ran into n
largo embankment of dirt, usually called
a slide, by railroad men aud miners, which
completely upset everything, tothoinju
ry of many passengers, including oil ages,
colon and sues. The oondnetor and en
gineer, neither being injured, was going
the rounds to see the extent of the disas
ter. They found the passengers piled up
iu utter confusion, one lady suspended
from a window by her crinoline, hollow
ing iu a mournful voice for help, who
wss rescued. Next they caiue to Tim
Murphy, who was going on at a mournful
to.
"Well, Tim," says conductor Moore,
‘ how are you getting along ?"
“ Oh I" said Tim, “ Scalded—scalded,
badly scalded!"
Upon exarninatioa, they found that tho _ . _
