THE CAPITOL,.
In the Senate the cl ief attraction yes
terday was Mr. Brown’s resolntions re
questing the Snb Ku-Klux Committee,
now in tliia city, to summon, as witnesses,
all the Judges of the Superior Courts of
this State. This ought to have met with
no opposition, especially from the Radi
cal side of the Senate, particularly as a
majority of the judges are of the Repub
lican way of thinking, bnt it did. One
Campbell opposed it, and so did Senator
Brock. The latter insists that there
lawlessness in his District. He persists
in insisting that his constituents are law
less and disorderly. But, if they are,
how is it that Brock represents them in
the Senate 1 That is a matter of some
concern to know. If his .people are as
lawless as he represents them to be, cer
tainly it would not be safe for a man of
his shade of politics to attempt to do
their legislating.
Campbell also says there is lawlessness
in his District. This the publio believes
to be true. It has had testimony of the
fact; and if further testimony were need
ed, it can be found upon the docket of
the United States District Court for the
Southern District of Oeorgia, where
there is an indictment pending against
certain negro Notary Public for a piece
of high-handed lawlessness.
Senator Candler spoke in favor of the
resolutions, and, for a time, awakened
the old fires that were wont to flash
through the Senate Chamber during the
last Legislature.
A sensation in.the House was the ao-
tion upon a bill to change the line be
tween McIntosh and Liberty counties.
This occasioned a lively controversy; but
the question does not threaten to assume
an international importance, nor is it lia
ble to be considered worthy of being
brought before the Sub-Committee on
Ku-klnz.
Mr. Jackson, we observe, has intro
duced a bill which proposes to amplify
Atlanta to the extent of a Recorder and
an Auditor. We shall have a note t
make of this hereafter.

Printing to tho lowest bidder, has this to
say:
U this could be done, we think the
movement a good one; but we cannot
now cohceiye how an intelligent propo
sal for this work could be made, nor how
a bidder could moke a sensib.'qj'id, from
the fact that it is now utterly impos tible
to tell how much printing is to be dene.
And if a bid is to be made on ea -h job.
the wheels of legislation would not only
be clogged, but a permanent salaried
commission would have to be appointed
to superintend this important branch of
public expenditure.
If the writer of the paragraph knew
anything about the bounces in which he is
engaged, he could very easily see “how an
intelligent proposal for this work could be
made;” but knowing very little about
the printing business, he is unable to sec
what is perfectly apparent to every intel
ligent printer. It is strange that men
will attempt to write npon subjects of
which they understand least.
GEORGIA MATTERS. •
Murder neab Montezuma, —We heard
yesterday the particulars of a most bru
tal and oold blooded murder which oc
curred near Montezuma a few days ago.
A Mr. &Mtt had been to Montezuma and
gotten brutally drunk. In the afternoon,
as he was returning home in his wagon,
be met a negro man and woman going to
a field in which they were employed
picking cotton. Without any provoca
tion whatever, he cocked bis pistol, which
was already in bis hand, and fired it off
toward the negroes. The liall passed
through the bowels of the negro woman,
inflicting a fatal wound from which she
died in a few hours. The negro man
(her husband) cameimmediatelv to town
and had a warrant taken out for Soott.
He was arrested by the Sheriff, and so
great was the feeling of indignation
among both white and black, that a guard
had to be placed over him during the
night to prevent his tieiug lynched A
preliminary trial was hail the day follow
ing, and he was committed to jail to
await trial at the Superior Court Scott
avowed an entire ignorance of the oc
currence, of which none who saw him
when he left town had any doubt
The above we find in the Macon Tele
graph of Tuesday. It is a sad occur
rence, and one that all good peo]
should deplore, both because of
atrocity of the crime—for which whisky
is no palliation or excuse—and because
of the almost absolute certainty that
is to be distorted, by the enemies
Georgia, into another Kuklux outrage.
Tho jieople were justy indignant toward
tho murderer, but it is well that their
purpose to execute summary revenge
was restrained. It would have only in
creased thu harm likely to grow out of
the affair. Since Scott is iu custody, lei
him be tried and punished as the law di
rects.

The Monroe Advertiser says:

Since it got all of these premiums, the
Monroe Advertiser does not say potatoes
any more, but call ’om “tubers."

The Monroo Advertiser of yesterday
says: A cutting affray occurred Saturday
afternoon in front of Mays’ drug store,
between John Cochran and Berry Dew
berry, the former inflicting a severe and
dangerous wound upon the person of the
latter. The knife entered the left side,
severing an artery. This it was thought
at the time would provo fatal, bet we were
leased to learn yesterday afternoon that
Ir. D. was improving, and in a fair way
to recover. The difficulty grew out of
