THURSDAY EVENING, JULY 10.
2 he second trial of Abner Gibson,
charged with the murder of Coleman, is
in progress in Macon. A verdict will
probably be reached to-night or to
morrow.

T, Callaway, of Macon,. Bhot and hilled
himself in liin room last Saturday. As
there was no known cause of suicide, it
is inferred that the shooting was acci
dental. The family has the deepest
sympathy in the loss of one of its most
promising members.

THE WII/J LAND FRAUDS.
TOLERABLE WELL FOR CON-
GRESS
Our Democratic Congress has not
given Mr. Veto Hayes his own wav af
ter all. The President was compelled
to sign the army bill so as to prohibit
the use of troops at the polls, the ju
diciary bill so as to repeal tbo obnox
ious test oath of jurors, and theUui-
ted States Marshal’s were pnt in a sepa
rate bill which we are glad was vetoed,
as it is very certain when a deficiency
bill is passed nothing will be allowed
for services at elections. Besides the
duty on quinine has been repealed,
and Borne other wholesome work done.
We are glad we are to have a rest
from Congressional legislation and
wrangles, and hope that the next term
which begins in December next will find
the Democrats of both houses more
trailed, and better prepared to fight
the centralizntionists and contraction-
lets of the east. On the whole we can
say to Congress "well done.”
“NO NAME”
A sensible man’s love is never totally
blind, whatever the poets may say, nor
is it permanently purblind. Charac
teristic faults will sorely manifest them
selves even to love. The same faults
seem less excusable in the one beloved
than in another. People who regard
newspapers with a peculiar favor,
amounting almost to genaine love, are
pained to see tb&tin some respects they
are generally “unreliable, and sometimes
wantonly misleading. They seem to
. think themselves monopolists in intel
ligence, and founders cf opinion, and
having in them a modicnm of human
nature, they occasionally presume npon
public credulity too far, and for wrong
motives. Thns they establish for them
selves a dubious character, so thateyen
their friends hesitate to receive their
statements with confidence. It may be
said that the public has average intelli
gence, discernment and memory—and
the newspapers are stnpid if they sup
pose that the people will foil to observe
and remember their foibles and incon
sistencies. Not to mention their grayer
faults, such as result from partizan zeal,
ex from possible venality, it is deemed
snfficient for the present purpose to no
tice one or two of the lesser indiscre
tions.
To point a moral, the great educator
and conservator,—the press,—informed
the public that Weston, Ui6 stepper,
Had tested bis endurance too far, and as
a consequence was both mentally "stove-
up,” ‘let down,” "hacked” and spav
ined. This , was said of him some
months ago, perhaps to match the sto
ry ofSothem’s prostration; andonow
the same Weston is the acknowledged
champion- high-stepper of tho whole
earth. It does seem that some news
papers perpetrated a needless fiction,
and the others circulated it.~
Then it makes a man feel somewhat
like a fool to read the report of a col
lege commencement after having him
self attended the excretes. He never
had reason to snspe-ct himself of blind
ness or stupidity, but on this occasion
certainly tho reporter observeel very
much that escaped bis notice. It veri
ly seems that every member of every
class was a true genius, and a personal
paragon, or elso the seposter feels call-,
ed upon to flatter everybody at what
ever cost to bis own voraoity and xepn-
tetkm. Is this-bis- duty?- Is not si
lent* better than a lie, even when the
lie flatters a pretty girl? Is it no* bet
ter as. a matter of policy even?* Flat-
Tbe Committee appointed by the
Legislature to intestigate the ebarges
of fraud in regard to the transfer of
wildland executions and prcceedings
fheretXnder,- hate made their report.
A mass of villaiDj has been ftnveiled
which will excite the indignation of ev
ery good, bonet-i citizen of our state.
We nave neither time nor space this
week to piiut the whole report, ranch
less the evidence adduced, bnt the com*
mittee set-ins to have done its duty
faithfully and fearlessly. It set ms
that an immense number of wild land
tax execution's were issued by the
Comptroller General and transferred to
various parties-, as allowed by law.
There seems to have been no proper
record kept of this business from which
the committee could get fully posted as
number actually is6ned, and whether
legal or not The names of transferees
were kept on record, and- many were
those of fictitious person or firms. The
lands were generally sold and bought
in by the transferees, and wben redeemed
by tbe owers wbo had in hundreds of
instants already paid the taxes, they
were swindled out of large sums as
costs, advertising fees, Ac. Besides
many thousand cf dollars are held by
these transferees illegally nnder pre
tense of their being in trust for the trne
owners of unclaimed lots of land. The
transferees have nearly ten thousand
of such illegal money in hand in Dodge
county alone, while one person has ihe
entire amount for twelve counties.
While not connected by toGtamony
with these wholesale frauds, the Comp
troller General is censured by a majori
ty of the committee for not more care
ful looking after the interest of tte
State, and the owners of the lands. They
pronounce the sales under i transferred
executions illegal and void.
The report is very extended and
with the accompanying testimony
would fill a large volume* We hope to
be able to draw on its most solvent
points next week. It is an expose of
tbe greatest land swindles perpetrated
in the South since the Yazoo frands,
and it is to be hoped those directly im-
implicated with the villainy of this
mattter will meet with as condign pun
ishment at the bar of public opin
ion, for it seems the law can do noth
ing more than nullify the illegal acts in
the premises.

OUR ATLANTA LETTER.
The Cotton Factory—A Federal Sdi-
cidek—The Legh-laiube and Wild
Land Naughtiness,
Editor Home Journal:—
Having nothing particular to do to
night, I thought I’d give you a few dots
from the ever gay and rollicking Oapi
tat
The great event of the week, was the
starting oi the Atlanta Colton Factory.
Yon and your readers know that some
people here have had serious donbts
that the enterprise would eyer prove a
success nnder the management of H. 1.
Kimball, but these doubts have vanish
ed like a vision, nnd not even the Thomas
es will venture to give expression to for
mer utterances. Success is on tbe
tongnes of everybody. At 4 o’clock'
VIorday evening over three hundred of
the representative people of Atlanta as
sembled at the factory to witness the
starting of this gigantic enterprise. Af
ter a short speech from Pres. Kimball,
Gov. Colquitt opened the valve which
instantly put abont four acres of ma
chinery in motion. Raw cotton first
entered the pickers, and in forty min-
ntes the fieecy staple was converted in
to cloth, after going throngh a half-
dozen or more machines and preparatory
processes. Well, after telling you that
Gov. Colquitt and Mayor Calbonn
made stirring speaches, a spread was
made in the front end of the second
floor, consisting of n feast of watermel
ons, fruits of all kinds and plenty of
nice lemonade. Mr. Kimball had a lit
tle "Su’thin” strong for the old sonk-
ers down at his private office, bnt tbe
writer wbo does not belong to that class,
did’nt get any of it. Bnt enough of tbe
cotton factory.
Monday afternoon, the city was star-
lied by the re.port of a suicide. A Fed
end soldier named H. M. McCawley of
Co. L 13th U. S. Infantry committed
snicide by,blowing bis brains ont with
a piutol in a box car near the Central
R. It. depot. ' He was conscious .for
several hours aftershooting himself bnt
jersistcntly refused to give any reason
ortheact. Hearn tliathehad been gam
bling and lost all his money. Another
story istbat domestic trouble was at the
bottom of it.
Wednesday the Legislature convened,
and the daily papers have given you
the proceedings. It is thought that
tbe report of the Wild Land Committee
will stir up a considerable breeze, nnd
that tbe Coiqnitt—Mnrphey matter will
the Bntler Female College and Male
Institute, and also to visit relatives and
friends. At Fort Yalley we stopped by
tbe way, and were hospitably entertnin-
cd at the residence of Mr* J. J. Dash
er and family.
Visiting the Pnblic Library we were
courteously received by Mr. S. B. Barr,
the efficient President, and Miss Essie
McMillan, the accomplished Librarian,
and wire agreeably surprised at the
rapid progress made in the establish
ment of a permanent pnblic library.—
Tbe shelves were filled with about fif
teen hnndred volumes, mostly choice
books, and the reading tables were
spread with the best and latest news
papers and periodicals,—in a room neat
ly and comfortably furnished and taste
fully ornamented. We were informed
that this success was in a great measure
due to tbe energy, zeal and pobb'c spir
it of Mr. T. O. Skellie and Ihe Presi
dent, Mr. Bnrr, who, as editor and
proprietor of the Mirror, has freely de
voted its colamns to the advancement
of the ctinse.
At 11 o’clock a. m. Tuesday, as yonr
Fort Valley correspondent saw it,
"pnt on a bold front” and under the
encouraging influence of wife’s pres
ence (she is the better half of "we”),
"got off on the Columbus train withont
any difficulty” and arrived at Bath r at
12 o’clock.
Here we- received affectionate wel
come and hospitality at the hands of
onr kinsman, W, H. Jenkins and fam
ily. The commencement exercises were
nnder full headway, and we learned that
the sermon on the previous Sabbath by
Rev. Jus. S. Key, D. D., was even for
him unusually able and eloquent. His
theme, “Conduct—(makes)— Character
—(makes)—Destiny,” was very appro
priate and prolific of thought for the
occasion. At 8J o’clock Tuesday even
ing twenty-four boys from 8 to 18 years
of age declaimed short selections to a
large, intelligent and attentive audience
in tbe college chapel, the exercises be
ing varied by excellent music on tbe
piano, violin and gmlar by Mrs. E.
Rutherford and Messrs. J. G. Bate
man and Yiv Rutherford. The efforts
of the boys were most creditable to
their instructors, but some of tbe smal
lest evinced remarkable elecntionary
powers. Wednesday at 101 o’clock a.
m., the young ladies of the Jnnior and
Senior classes read original composi
tions before another large and appre
ciative audience. And let me remark
here that moreattentiveand well-behav
ed houses I have never seen than those
assembled at these commencement ex
ercises. The young ladies acquitted
themselves most handsomely in style of
dress and deportment, and clear and
distinct enunciations of compositions,
full of telling hits and sparkling witti
cisms.
Mrs. Rutherford and Messrs. Bate
man and Rutherford again fnrnished
their delightful and inspiring music.
At the conclusion I did not deliver
the annuaul address as incorrectly stat
ed in your last issue, bnt had the honor
of introducing the orator of the occa
sion, Col. Edgar M. Butt, of Buena
Vista, who added a fine honest face,
modest and dignified presence, and the
graces of oratory, to an address full of
thought and eloquence, which stirred
his audience to repeated outbursts of the
heartiest applause. He was the gallant
commander of tbe 2d Ga. Reg’t. in the
late war, and towards its close a shell
bnrst in his face and destroyed the
sight of both eyes. In this condition
of total blindness he remained for five
years, wben by a skillful operation bis
sight was completely restored, and his
face now shows no traces of his wounds.
He is 47 years old and in the full vigor
a nsefnl manhood. He unites
distant sections, as Well ns onr own,
and crowds of visitors at the annual
exercises, bringing cash to onr mer
chants and boarding-honse keepers,
and boilding up every interest of the
town and adding to the value of onr
real estate. But more of this anon.
On Friday we bade adien to Butler
and its clever and hospitable people,
and after spending a night at Walden
with onr relatives Mr. S. F. Dasher and
family, returned home Saturday morn
ing after a week’s .unalloyed enjoy
ment

—OF-
5IBLE QUESTION BO&KS
BLAINE’S ‘ WAR" RECORD.
Mr. Blaine would have it understood,
it seems, that liis* being a member of
Co egress incapacitated bim for service
in the army. Some other members of
Congress, whose services there were
quite as important as his, took a differ
ent view of the subject, Tbe gallant
Col. Baker, wbo fell at Ball’s Bluff,
was Senator from Oregon, bnt that did
not deter him from entering the service.
Gen. JimLane was Senator from Kan
sas, bnt took tbe field and did efficient
service for the Union. Frank P. Blair,
whom Blaine traduced and vilified from
Maine to Wisconsin, resigned his seat
in Congress and bravely fought on many
a bloody field till the war closed. We
have never heard that any of these men
engaged in getting accounts allowed in
the Wax Department on shares, and
that may account for their being better
prepared to be absent from Washi ng-
ten than Mr. Blaine was.
He says he hired bis substitute, after
being drafted "to go to war.” Why
didn’t he go then? Tbe truth is Mr.
Blaine got a soft place for him in connec
tion with the post in this city, and prob-
bly hired him cheaper by assuring him
that he could remain on unimportant
duty here and not be obliged to go to
the front. He says he paid all the
“bounty jumper was worth.” What
was he dealing with a “bouufcy-jumper”
for if he really wanted to respond, in
good faith, to the call of his
country? Conld he hiie a substitute of
of that character cheaper than he
conld an honest soldier? Why shouldn’t
he “pay all he was worth,” if he dealt
with bim at all? Did he think he onght
to take less on account of the sacrifice
that Blaine was making in hiring him?
But when Mr. Blaine undertook to
give his war record to his brother Sena
tors he onght to have Btated the whole
of it. He should have told them that
that snbsti’ute of his was detected in
forging and selling surgeons’ certifi
cates of exemption, was committed to
jail for it in this city and performed
his military duties behind its bars, and
that afterward he (Blaine) got two hun
dred dollar from onr city treasury to
reimburse the .expense he had been to
iu supplying his country with a “boun
ty-jumper” to fight its battles in jaiL—
