The Legislature of this great Stato
protractod its term from Monde)' until
to-day—for tho purpose, no doubt., of
Uaxiug bachelors, and malting a‘twelvo-
montb absonos” legal ground for divorco.
And then, not only will Atlanta be the
"Ubioago,” but the Stale a sort of “Il
linois of tbo South.” Reports of the
“Booohor trial,” perhaps, havo “led tho
mombors to a higher life.”
Tlic Policy of Provocation.
The following from the Boston Advor
tisor, the leading Republican journal of
New England, desorvos thoughtful read
ing :
“That it is the deliberate purpose of Oen.
Butler and those who train in his company
to taunt and insult the Smith to the pitch of
exasperation and over acts of retaliation,
obserrent men can hardly doubt. The dan
ger is that tile large body of Republicans
who sincerely desire peace and justice will
too long neglect to rebuke and repudiate
the infernal policy of provocation upon
which a few of their unscrupulous leaders
are bent. If their conduct -should sting
some of the more hot-headed communities
to madness, the future historian calmly re
viewing these times would rigidly blame us
and not them."
We have ono objection to tho above.
It seems to imply that “tho deliberate,
purpose-to taunt and insult the South
to the pitch of exasperation and overt
acts of retaliation” is of recont origin—
an innovation, as it wore, upon the es
tablished usage of the dominant party
in its dealings with Southern affairs.—
This a_very grave error, and one which
should not be suffored to pass uncor-
rectcd.
Whoever will oarefully and imparti
ally examine the course of tho Repub
lican party toward the South during
the last ten years can have no difficulty
"in perceiving that its main tendenoy
has been in one single direction, which
may with propriety be called the poli
cy of provocation. Tills policy was
inaugurated immediately after the death
of Mr, Lincoln, when the public senti-,
ment of the North was ready to approve
tho harshest measures, and has been
steadily continued until now—when it
finds logical consummation in Sheridan-
ized Louisiana and the force bill de
manded by President Grant. The
leaders of the party—not tho mass of
rank and file—had no desire to accom
plish an honest and honorable recon
struction of the Union, unless it could
be accomplished by and associated
with the permanent supremacy of the
Republican element in those States
which constituted the late Confederacy.
They speedily ascertained that fully
nfneteon twentieths of the white people
of the South were not and could not be
made Republicans either in feelinw or
action. It was then determined to an
noy, irritate and insult them beyond
the limits of forbearanoe, and take ad
vantage of occasional outbursts of natur-
nl indignation to secure such legislation
from Congress as would insure, as near
ly as possible, a solid Republican vote
from the Southern States. The policy
of provocation was ingeniously devised
and vigorously executed. Negro troops
which could just as well have been used
elsewhere, were quartered among com
munities whore their presence was
known to be the most objectionable.—
Negro policemen were encouraged to
run for office, when it was perfectly un
derstood that such a proceedinv could
only tond to intensify and embitter the
hostility already existing between the
two races. Negro legislators and State
officials woro put in power when it was
evident that their lack of knowledge
and of pnnciplj would quickly trans
form them into thieves and corruption
ists, having no other object than the
wholesale plunder of their constituents.
Unscrupulous adventurers were import
ed from the North to teach the latest
and choisest tricks of political legerde
main, when it was apparent to every
body that such a combination of white
and black rascality would be utterly
ruinous to the population] upon whioh
it was permitted to prey. Whenever
the carpet baggers and their Afrioan
allies met with any strong resistance
P tbs prosecution of their schemes of
oppression and robbery, then Federal
soldiers were employed to dragoon the
people into submission and stir up suf
ficient commotion to justify another
turn of the Congressional screws.—
Then came Ku Ivlux bills, suspensions
of habeas corpus, drumhead courts, shoul
der-strapped viceroys, committees to
manufacture “Southern outrages,” and
all theinnumerable appliances by which
the stronger tyrannizas over the weak
er. And so tho wretched work had
gone on year after year until now, when
it has roaoboi! a point where it must
either coase altogether or to bo made
ten fold worse.
Looking baok upon what the South
ern people have been obliged to endure,
the wondor is, not that they hero aud
there ondcavorod by moans Dot striotly
legal to throw off tho galling yoke, but
that they havo uotraised on masse against
the oppressors, This latter ovout is pro
oisely what Grant and the Radical wing
of the party want, and what thoy in
tended—if unohooked—to accomplish
within tho next two yoars, The Ad
vertiser and the Conservative Ropubli-
oaus whom wo aro glad to beliovc it rep
resents, have been somewhat too loug
in discovering the policy of provocation
and tho results it is designed toaohievc,
but now that their eyes are fully open
it is to be hoped they will join heartily
in opposition to tho sohomos at present
in process of development. The Presi
dent’s proceedings in regard to Louisi
ana and Arkansas, aud tho Force Bill
whioh he is trying to drivo through
Congress, plaiuly show the objoot the
Radioals havo in view. That objeov is
to so deepen and aggravate tho provoca
tion polioy that tho Southern people,
unablo longer to bear it, will endeavor
to right their wrongs by foroo. In
other words Grant and his party are
determined to havo*“a new rebellion”
as their capitnl for the campaign of 1876
Without suob oapital they are dead bo-
yond.redemptlon ; with it, they hope to
obtain a further loaso of life. This is
tho true intent and moaning of the
Presidential button holing and Con
gressional caucusing now going on at
Washington, whioh wo fool assured will
utterly and irretrievably fail. Thero
has been more than enough of provo
cation offered the South j now let us
try a little conciliation—a little of that
old-fashion statemenship whiob-says :
“Equal and exact justice to all, and
exclusive privileges to none.”

TIIE TREASURY MATTER.
How tie Bonds Came to be Paid
Twice—Col. Kibbee’s Reason for
Introducing the Resolution.
For several days rumors have been afloat
concerning reported irregularities in the
State Treasury, under the supervision, as
is well known, of Col. John Jones, who has
for many years filled this responsible posi
tion. These rumors grew primarily from a
resolution offered by Col. C. C. Kibbee in
the Senate, (with what motion is detailed
below,) ordering an investigation into ..tile
affairs of the Treasury. The committee
went to work and have been in session for
about two weeks. Reports, whether authen
tic or not, the careless public scarcely stop
ped to inquire—came from the Capitol j and
ran riot- through town. They spread oyer
the State, aud a telegram came on yester
day from Columbus, asking if it were true
"6-licsfr Dbcao trnu w aunuiii wr
Treasury/'
Feeling sure that the rumors were wild
and most probably baseless, we refrained
from mentioning the matter, at least until
the committee now investigating the ac
counts should report decisively upon their
correctness. However, as a morning paper/
the Constitution of this city, has alluded to
the matter in a vague and indefinite waj r ,
we have felt it to be just to all parties that
a specific statement should bo made.
THE ONLY TANGIBLE RUMOR THAT HAS
COMS
to the public' is, that Treasurer Jones has
paid about $150,000 worth of over due
bonds, issued in 1871, which had been al
ready paid. The rumor was pretty gener
ally accredited, and it is really, in whole or
in part, true.
The first impression conveyed to the pub
lic by this statement is. that the trausac-
tion’thrcrws a suspicion ou the Treasurer.—
This is altogether wrong. Every member
of the committee joins in declaring that no
thing has been discovered in the whole in
vestigationthat puts the slightest shade of
suspicion on Col. Jones’ integrity. The in
vestigation has been full and thorough, but
the detail work is so immonse that it will
be a week probably before a report is
made.
This reporter talked with a number of the
committee and with Colonel Jones him-
ielf.
_ WHAT COL. JONES SAYS.
Col. Jones at first declined to sajr any
thing. lie says: “I am perfectly willing
to Kawait the report of the committee. I
fear nothing ancl have no plea to offer. I
prefer that the public, like myself, should
wait until the committee, after a full inves
tigation, shall make an official and author
ized report-.”
Upon being pressed, however; to give
us for publication an explanation as to
how* tho bouds in question came to be
paid twice, Col. Jones said (without admit
ting or denying that such jayment had
been made ): *
“If you remember, Henry Clews was,
previous to my administration, the financial
agent of the State of Georgia, in New Yoi^k.
He, of course, paid a large number of bonds
during his term. When I became Treasur
er I tried to get from him a statement as to
what he had paid. He refused, both af
ter my demand aud the Governor’s to ren
der any account. At length Col. Thos. L.
Sneed was appointed as attorney for the
State, to settle with Mr. Clews, After a
long time he furnished us a.statcment of his
transactions for and on behalf of the State.
As soon as his statement came I looked
over it with the Governor, and stated to
him that I was afraid that I had paid some
of the bonds that Clews had already paid,
according to his statement. Of course I had
no wav of guarding against this. If Mr.
Clews had paid the bonds, and then, With
out conceding them, had put them upon the
market again, I had no way of knowing
that they ware paid, especially when Mr.
Clews refused to give a list of what bonds
he had paid.”
Just here Col. Jones was called out, and
our conversation ended. Col. C. A. Nutting
who was standing by, took it up, saying
”1 thiuk that an uncaucelled and unrepu
diated bond, presented at the door of the
Treasury, is a legal warrant on the Treasury,
dilation he had the right to demand that a
guarantee should be given that the bond
liad not been previously paid. Col. Jones
did this to my knowledge. I have had $12,-
000 of over-due bonds sent through ray
bank for collection, which Jones has refus
ed to pay until he can have them fully in
vestigated. lie has nob paid them yet, ol
though he has been pressed to do so.”
Col. Kirbek's statement.
Obi. Kibbee, the Chatrman of the com
mittee refused to talk to ns, excopt to say :
"There has been u great deal of unnecessary
fuss made about tho matter, This arises
from the fact that the legislature bus done
at this session, for the ftntHhne, what it
ought to do every seaslnnv-viz., look into
the accounts of the Treasurer. This was
the object of my resolution. I offered it
with no suspicion that there was any thing
wrong, but merely because I thought it was
a precedent we had better establish. I will
say to you, however, since the matter has-
*come up, that we have discovered nothing
that effects the integrity of it/he Treasurer
in tho slightest degree. We Will be able to
make our report in aboutt&h days.”
NOT MUCH EM0ITEHBNT.
The temporary excitement being over,
the matter has already died out almost on*
tlrely. The people have an abiding confi
dence in Col. Joues, whiop nothing cau
shake, and which we feel sure is not mis
placed. The public will quietly await tho
report of the committee, w.lAnji, it is hard
ly possible, will create a gutter when it
comes.
Tile Treasury Deficit—Report of
tlie Leirishuive Committee.
Atlanta, February 23.—The sub-
Finance Oommitteo appointed to ex
amine the Treasury made^an elaborate
and voluminous report to-day, the sali
ent points of which are as follows : On
the first of January last, Treasurer
Jobes reported cash on hand $1,300,-
000.- Since that time he has collected
$167,000, making tho total for which
he is respolraible, $1,170,000, for which
ho is credited ns follows Six hund-
dred and thirty-two thpuslftid dollars in
the hands of agents in Now York, pay
maturing bonds and interest on cou
pons which was not received at the
time. Treasurer Jones made his re
port to the Legislature; also $179,000
were paid out by the Fourth National
Bank of New York , interest and pre
miums on gold. He also>paid out of
the Treasury direct, on Executive war
rants, since the 1st of January, $134,-
000 ; cash on hand, $167,Q00, making
$1,102,000, whioh leaves |a deficit of
$68,000; to account for,, For this
deficit Treasurer Jones submits infor
mal vouchers for advances made to the
civil establishment of the State lload,
exchange bills,. Executive warrants,
signed by Bullock, interest on a tem
porary loan, loss by the failure of John
King, of Ooiumbus, and counterfeits
amounting to about $64,Q00, none of
which are in proper form, {pod whioh,.
upon a superficial examinathm the com-
, mfytee do not allow—thus / eaving-$4.-

committee further state th#4 Treasurer
Jones has illegally paid $152,000 for
old bonds, due January, 1&£2, the same
being part of the bonds said by Bullock
to have been paid by Clew*. Of course
Jones is not charged with this in the
foregoing balance. Jones states in ex
tenuation that lie had do notice of pre
vious payment.
The committee concludplby recom
mending that Jones be fcguested to
resign, and in the event lie sbfuses that
the State appoint a competent financial
agent to supervise the Treasury Depart
ment and ascertain accurately the con
dition of the State finances £ The com

Destruction op Matches.—The Paris

ried in a cigar-case. On opening this box
you see a platinum , wire stretched across.
Touching a spring, the wire reddens suffici
ently to light a cigar. At will you can in
troduce iuto a Liny sconce a mesh of cotton
steeped in spirits of wine or petroleum,
which j taking fire, does service as “a veil-
leuse, or nurse's lamp. The hidden agency
which heats the wire is a very small elec
trical battery, set in action by the touching
of the spring. The trade price of the elec
trical tinder-box will be half a franc, or
flvepence. Its inventor promises thatit will
be an economical substitute for the lucifer
match. This apparatus may, peibaps de
range the budget, whioh depends for a heavy
sum.upon the match-t^x and monopoly.”
