UNFINISHED BU8INESS.
When the Senate adjourned, yesterday,
the subject under debate being the pre
vention of mob-law in this State, Mr.
Arnow having the floor, he continued his
arguments against the adoption of Senator
Hester’s bill.
Senator Matthew s, of the 26th, offered a
substitute, but it was declared not in
order.
Senator Hester Again advocated the pas
sage of his bill at considerable length. He
insists that the ku-klux must be pot down.
A motion to exempt Elbert county from
the operations of the bill was not in
order.
Mr. Reese made some remarks in favor of
the report of the committee, which was
adverse to the bill. The bill was lost.
STANDING COMMITTEE.
The Chairman of Agriculture made a
report on fish.
Mr. Blance, on Deaf and Dumb Asylum,
favorably on the report recommending a
Board of Visitors.
BILLS ON THIRD READING.
To prevent the obstruction of the free
passage of fish in the Kinchetoonee Creek.
Mr. Harris regretted to be compelled to
disagree to the report of the committee.
It will interfere with vested rights, for
instance Col. Tift owns the land on both
sides of the creek from the railroad bridge
to its mouth, and the bill would deprive
him from erecting a mill dam, if he was
so inclined. There is a cat in the meal
tub about this bill. He is a friend to the
law protecting fish and game, but he
thinks a man has vested rights in a mill
dam on his own land which should not be
interfered with.
Senator Hester wanted the fish to swim
freely—let them come up stream in large
quantities—
Don’t let ns defeat this bill,
Because Mr. Tift may build a mill.
Let us eat plenty of fish. The bill was
da8sed.
A bill to amend Section 3972 of the Code.
A substitute by the committee was report
ed, which was adopted and the bill so
amended passed. It prescribes the man
ner of foreclosures ol moitgages on per
sonal property.
A bill to fix the fees of the jailor of
Twiggs county for feeding prisoners. Shall
not exceed forty cents per day. Senator
Hester thought this question would give
rise to trouble. The bill should say what
the prisoners should have. If a man gets
forty cents a day, they would get a forty
cent meal, and if twenty cents, they would
get a twenty cent meal.
Senator Howell claimad that the Senator
from the 30lb district was out of order, un
less he presented his bill of fare.
The member from the 30th district was
merely going on to state what he would
like to have for dinner, in case he was in
jail under embarrassing circumstances. It
was a question of humanity. Bill passed.

bill was lost.
A bill to authorize one new trial in all

visions, and a substitute by the committee.
Passed.
A bill making the unlawful use of money
in the hands of a fiduciary a felony.
Lost.
To define for whom trust estates can be
created and prescribing rules therefor.
The committee reported favorably. Mr.
Cain opposed the report. When a man
has a trustee appointed and goes around
the country trading upon the strength of
his property and gets credit, and then a
trustee rises up and prevents the payment
of such contracts, he is unalterably and
utterly opposed to it- There is too much
of this thing going on already in the Coun
try. There is already enough law regulat
ing such proceedings. The Senator made
a telling speech in support of his opposition
to this bill.
Senator Reese spoke his full time on the
adoption of the report.
Senator Cain replied in very emphatic
terms to the remarks of Mr. Reese, and
corrected that gentleman in several partic
ulars.
Some remarks were also made by Sena
tor Peavv, of the 31st, in defense of the
bill.

Guarded for five Hour.—The Escape
From the Springfield Republican.
Northampton woke up yesterday fore
noon, to learn of the most audacious, de
liberate and startling bank robbery that
western Massachusetts, if not the whole
country, has ever known. A baud of seven
men, who had been hanging about the
town for at least a month, it would seem,
entered the house of Cashier Whittlesey,
of the Northampton National Bank, and
bound, gagged and guarded for hours seven
people. They compelled him to give to
them the combinations on the safe vault,

man had gone home, and then, getting
into the vault and safe with only one of
the four keys needed, took a large amount
of securities, locked the vault after them,
and departed on the early luorntog Spring-
field train; and whence they came, and
whither they went, is, up to the present
date, a riddle. An expert had to be sum
moned from New York, and the lock was
not opened until an early hour this morn
ing. The result is sufficiently appalling.
The table of the securities taken shows a
total of $670,000. Of course much of this
is not negotiable, so that it is difficult to es
timate the real loss to the bank and deposi-

A bill to provide for the registration of
dogs, and for other purposes.
Also a bill to require the Ordinaries of
this State to furnish collars for dogs in
their respective counties, and for other
purposes.
The Committee on Agricultur3, to whom
these bills had been referred, reported
same back to the House with the recom
mendation that they do pass by substitute.
Several amendments were ottered to the
substitute, which were not adopted, and
the report of the Committee was then
agreed to.
On the passage of the bill reported by
the Committee, Mr. Duggan called the
yeas and nays, which call was sustained,
and the Clerk proceeded with the .call,
which resulted in yeas 87, nays 39.
So the bill was passed.
On motion of Mr. Jones, of Burke, the
bill, with the action of the House thereon,
was ordered transmitted at once to the
Senate.
On motion of Mr. Black two hundred
copies of the following bill were ordered
printed for the use of the House, to wit:
A bill to establish a State House of Re
form and for other purposes.
Mr. Livingston, Chairman of the Special
Committee to prepare and report a revi
sion of the Road Laws introduced the fol
lowing bill, which was read the first time,
to wit:
Also a bill to create a Board of Com
missions for Roads in the several counties
and to prescribe their duties and for other
puposes.
On motion of Mr. Nelms two hundred
copies of the hill were ordered printed for
the use of the House.
The hour of 11 o’clock having arrived,
the following bill was taken up for consid
eration ar the special order of the day, to-
wit :
A bill to levy for the support of the gov
ernment for the year 1876, and to provide
for the collection of taxes due the Stater
and for other purposes.
The House went into Committee of the
Whole for the consideration of said bill
Mr. Speer, chairman of the Committee
of the Whole, reported the hill back to the
House, “with a report of progress” and
asked leave to sit again to-day at 10 o’clock.
Leave of absence were granted Messrs.
Thomasson, of Morgan, and Bowen, of
Wilcox.
On motion the House then adjourned
until 3 o’clock this afternoon.
The claim of the Ohio Democrats that
their State U a ’‘keystone,” and that hence they
must be permitted to dictate the platform and the
candidate to the National Convention, does not
meet tne approval of The Buffalo Courier. It says
the Democrats have proved their ability to elect a
President without the aid of Ohio, and denies that
the Buckeye state is either a “beii-wether” or a
"key,tore. ” As for principles. The Courier says :
“About one thing, however, there must be no
doubt. The aext President, if a Democrat is chosen
at all, will be a hard-money man. and with any

There are indications that the inflation
faction of the Ohio Democracy, whoae mouthpiece
la The Cincinnati Enquirer, will not te allowed to
have their own aweet will in choosing the man
whom the State will present for the Presidency.
The recent attack on Gov. Hendricks is thus resent
ed by the Cleveland Plain Dealer: "When the prop
er time arrives, if the schemes of the men who are
altempdng to throw the nomination out of Ohio
are successtnl. the talented and popular Governor
will have a larger following than ia now deemed
probable 1 he West will have the nomination,ami If

a better chance than the choice of the Democrats of
our sister state, Indiana ?”
Here’s richness. The genial jonrnalist
of Springfield who has hinted at rare Intervals that
he iu*pech:'l Charles I 1 rands Adams was about the
right sort of b an for any office under the sun. has
come acros-* a report attributing to Pr sident Grant
the remark that he thought amall potatoes of 1II-
den.Henditx, Bayard, or Thurman, as he could
caaiiy be re-elected over either one of them, but
should the Democrats nominate Charles Francis
Adam*, haturaati would take it as a notice to quiL
Whereupon the admiring Bowies observes: “For a
blunt >'Idler, Mr. Grant has occasional .flasiii e of
political sense that are really surprising. There Is
more than one veteran politician, bred to Ihe trade,
who might profitably sit at hi* feet in such moments
and pick up hints.”
Carl Schnrz seems to think Mr. Blaine’s
prospects are dubious, for he writes; "Mr. Blaine is
a man of great talent, and baa many zealous
friends: but a party will be very alow in the cen
tenial jear to nominate that man for the Prealdenrv
who has made hlmaelf the first violent disturber of
the natioual jubilee. The third term is not the only
evil against which patriotic people revolt What Is
now demanded is to conciliate eninltv not to goad
it, and no candidate can prove himself strong, who,
in tnc contest of opinions, introduces the bitter
ness of personal passion by the reckless challenge
of the opponent.”
HOUSE.
Atlanta, Tuesday, Feb. 1, 1876.
The House met pursuant to adjourn

chair.
■Prayer was offered by the Rev. John
Jones, Chaplain.
On motion of Mr. Meadows, of Madison,
the call of the roll was suspended.
The journal of Monday was read and

Mr. Walsh, of Richmond, moved to re

House as regards the passage of the follow

A bill to regulate the time for which the
Mayor and Council of Augusta shall hold
office, and for other purposes.
On motion of Mr. Walsh, the rules were

The bill as amended then passed.
Allred, of Pickens, moved tiiat the rules
be suspended, and the following resolution
introduced by himself was taken up and
read the second time and adopted.
RESOLUTION.
Whereas, The citizens of Gilmer conn ty
have addressed a memorial and petition to
the General Assembly of Georgia, wherein
they set forth a statement of facts showing
that the most outrageous acts of scoundrel-
ism is being committed in their county and
the upper section of the State, under the
color of authority and of law ; and.
Whereas, It is repotted to us that a citi
zen has been assassinated without even a
pretended color of legal authority ; and,
Whereas, It is further stated that after
the assassins had been arrested and com
mitted, that they have been discharged or
removed from the custody of the State
It was severe on the victim, but his
friends can’t help laughing about it, and
one of them told it to us. A young gen
tleman in Cairo, had dressed on New-
Year’s to make his annual calls. No doubt
he had a list of his proposed calls in bis
pocket, and no doubt it embraced some
places where he had called many times
during the old year. Perhaps there was
at least one fair one whom he expected to
call not so formally as on the majority of
others. Be that as it may, he had adorned
himself as became a beau of the period,
and, perhaps, he had not intended to pro
long one call longer than another. His
sleek, shining hat, lavender kids, black
boots, starched collar and shirt front
suited him to a T, and his feelings were
complacent and flattering to himself, until
the thought flitted across his brain
(he has brains) that he was un
shaved. This was a stumper. It was
New Year’s day, and the barber shops
were all Cosed. What should he do? The
puffing and blowing of the steamer Thomas
Sherlock, then lying at the wharf, suggest
ed a nappy thought, which afterward re
sulted in much unhappiness to our high-
minded New Year’s caller. He ,went
aboard and asked the clerk how long the
steamer was likely to lay at Cairo, and was
answered in all honesty, no doubt, “ three
quarters of an hour.” Aft to the ’barber
shop be hurried, and immediately was
commenced the tonsorial operation which
hag its synonym on Wall street. New York,
and Third street, Cincinnati. When half
his face had been shaved, and the cooling
lather had been applied to the other half,
the boat v as discovered to be in motion,
and he left the barber’s easy chair as
suddenly as a country pedagogue jumps
from his seat upon discovering that
a bent pin has been placed thereupon,
by a mischievous urchin. Rushing
to the guard, he found the boat under
full headway, bound down the Mississippi.
To the hurricane deck he hurried, and
begged and implored the captain to land.
It could not be done with safety. An offer
of $10 to sound the whistle for the harbor
tug to follow was of no avail, and another
offer to purchase a yawl at its full value,
would not induce the captain to render His
inspection outfit incomplete. Grandly
the Thomas Sherlock plowed the water
until she reached New Madrid. Our beau,
however, had bv this time, concluded that
nothing would be gained by getting ashore
at any point above Memphis. At last that
city was reached, and he took the rail hack
to Cairo, where he arrived the next night,
having been forty hours out, and having
traveled about 400 miles, at an expense of
$15 or more, to himself, besides his own
anxiety and that of his numerous lady
friends at Cairo. His request, earnestly,
and almost pathetically, that no mention
should be made of the foregoing circum
stances, have not been strictly complied
with. There is now a grudge against the
Thomas Sherlock at Cairo, held by one
man, at least.

The hand are supposed to have entered
the house of Mr. WniUlesey,on Elm street,
about half a mile from the bank, through
a second-story window. He and his wife
were aroused about 1 a. m., and ordered by
two of the burglars to dress. The other
occupants of the house, T. B. Cutler, a Ga
zette printer, and wife, Miss Mattie C.
White, of Williamsport, Pa., Maria Benton,
and invalid boarder, and the servant girl,
had been similarly awakened, and were
filed into the Whittlesey bed room. All
were Dound and gagged, the burglars run
ning short of rope and dispatching the ser
vant for the clothes line. The men were
rather a jolly set, inclined to pay some at
tention to the comfort of their victims;
they advised the women to put on three
pairs of stockings so that the binding ropes
would not cut them. One of them casually
remarked that he had noticed Mr. Whit
tlesey’s fine watch at Watch Hill, R. I. two
years ago, and tried to claim acquaintance
with him from that time. This watch
they took, but Mrs. Whittlesey slvly pitch
ed hers under the bureau and so saved it;
they picked her fine cloak out of the bu
reau, and she said, “Give me that old
thing; I’fla cold,” and gained that. One of
the ladies said that she was sick end need
ed medicine, whereupon an attentive bur
glar offered her a spoonful of brandy.
Conversation was carried on more or less
brisklv, but always pleasantly, up to 4 a.
m. The burglars, who wore kid gloves,
were well disguised by masks made from
the legs of satinet drawers, with places cut
for the eyes, long linen dusters and blue
overalls. They took, besides the watch
fifteen dollars from Mr. Whittlesey’s
pocket.
Mr. Whittlesey, when asked to give the]
three combinations of the vault, for the
outer, inner and chest doors, gave them
wrong twice and thrice, but the burglars
wrote them down and made him repeat.
Of course they caught him, and a pistol
compelled the truth, though he told them
that four keys were neccessary to open the
patext lock, three of which were at the
houses of the other bank officers. At 4 a.
u. Mr. Whittlesey was taken to a down
stairs bed room, the whole family gagged,
and four of the burglars withdrew to oper
ate on the bank. Three hours after Mrs.
Whittlesey succeeded in freeing herself
and giving the alarm from a window. The
whole party wpre speedilly liberated, and
the casliier, still wearing the handcuffs,
went to the bank. A clever workman
soon fitted a key, and all the handcuffed
weresoon released. Examination at the
bank showed that the cracksmen had un
locked the outer door, but were apparent
ly balked by the safe lock, lacking three
of the requisite four keys. They tried the
metal of the door with bars, and wrenched
off two dials, which serves as an index for
working the combination, hoping so to
tamper with the lock. They were entirely
unmolested, the watch having gone home.
There is every indication that six, and per
haps all, of them left on Conductor Adam’
6 o’clock Southern train. Five of them
had tickets previously bought and one paid
his fare. It is surmised.that one of them
may have got left, for a man was inquir
ing, soon after, for a chance to follow the
reguliar train by freight, and a team driven
furiously toward Hulyoke, was heard by
the family of Sheriff Wright passing on
Maple street, where, also, a linen duster
was picked up. The lock upon the vault
was a supposed especially safe affair. It
was Dexter’s doubled dial combination,
with Herring’s patent for disconnecting
the tumblers from the spindle, was patent
ed by Oscar Yale last April, and put on
his bank only last October. For safety it
was accounted fully equal to, if not better
than, the chronometer lock. But the gang
knew all the ins and outs of locks, for when
Mr. Whittlesey told them that tbey could
not enter with but one of the four keys
required, they had responded, “We know
more about bank locks than you do.” Of
course they did, for, when the new lock
was put in, a conspicuous notice was post
ed up warning burglars that it would be
idle for them to wrestle with this four-key
ed combination. This notice was proba
bly sadly taken down, early this morning,
when the desecrated inner sanctuary of
the institution was readied by the skilled
workman. a
clerk, in palling down the curtain, saw four
men run from the rear of the building.
During yesterday Northamton was rath
er inclined to be meiry over the ill success
of so boldly contrived a scheme, and was
innocently busy during the day in laugh
ing at the' plight of the Cashier Whittle
sey’s folk*. The bank officers were con
fident that their patent lock had withstood
the attack, and the s)>ecial depositors gave
over their anxiety for the time. Very
many people waited for the opening of the
vault, however, this mornong. The full
extent otthe loss uid not reach the Repub
lican until three o’clock, when the bank
officials Bad had time to fully examine
their affairs, The savings bank people,
on the floor above, wish it understood that
their securities can be in no way affected,
as their Walt is entirely separated from
that of toe national banfe. Upon the de
positors fti Northampton and the whole
region, vdio had trusted that safe above all
others, tge loss will be crushing. What
with badkobacco years and the hard times,

It it is jferhaps the best likeness of the j>o-

genuincdiscovery of great value.

What was she thinking of? While
Beecher was in the midst of his vehement
address to his followers last week, liis face
flushed to the roots of his hair, beads of
sweat stood on his brow, his whole frame
quivering with excitement, Mrs. Beecher
sat in front of him, and could have touched
him with her parasol. 8he kept her eve
steadily on him with an intense, painful
naze; not a muscle moved, and amid the
laughter and applause and the shouts, she
sat as a statue, immovable, turning neith
er to the ri^ht nor the left, and giving no
sign.—Exchange,
The next thing in order ia two vases for
. - Senator Black’s desk, to receive the nu-
officers on some pretended authority of: merous boquets which have been prom-
iome official; and, jiaedhim. (Perhaps the present cold gpap
Whereat, It ia not only right, but the may interfere.)
There are many indications that the
burglars have been planning their work

A. small hand hag was picked up near ttie
primary school itouse on Bridge street, De
cember 28, containing a pair of new hand
cuffs, line those used at Mr. Whittlesey’s,
number of ring staples, nails, etc. Only
Tuesday afternoon a hoy found in the attic
of the same school house another bag, in
which were several bits, a bit-stock and a
whisky-flash, the discovery of which broke
up the school for the day, and brought
Hiieriff Wright and Potter to make a closer
examination. They found, in the Barne
place, four new double army blankets, a
pulley and considerable rope, a lot of sand
wiches in paper hags from the Stamford
(Ct.) Kaitroad restaurant, roast chicken,
apples, etc., a copy of the Now York Sun
of December 22, and a pair of satinet
drawers, minus one leg, which last was
found in Mr. Whittlesey's house vesterday,
having been used as a mask. lie provi
sions hud evidently been stored at least
a month. Mr. Whittlesey attended a
committee meeting relative to the Edwards
