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. Win lib Callaway, son of Mr. Jos. 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. BRIC-A-BAT. Col.

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 Besides the duty on quinine has been repealed, and Borne other wholesome work done.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. A VISIT TO BUTLER-MIXED SCHOOLS, Editor Heme Journalf— On Monday afternooil 23d hit, trs The people of Btitler.feel a just pride in the school, and say that their town is being built up anil greatly improved by it. I am an advocate of iiiixed schools, boarded the train at .Perry bound for , Butler, to attend the commencement of the plan of a joint-stock, non-*sectanan, fltiiid high school, we would soon have a flourishing seminary with pupils from 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 A. S. Giles. July 5th, 1879. CHRISTIAN INDEX SERIES —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— Maine Standard.
