Our readers, and especially our city
readers, will find the article published
elsewhere under the head of Municipal
Insurance net devoid of interest. The
plan there suggested, whereby a city may
pay its debt without a loss to its citi
zens, is a novel one to us, yet it works
out admirably on paper, and seems to be
practicable. We commend it to the at
tention of our readers.
The Russian regular standing army
is both the largest and most expensive
in the worid. It numbers 575,000 men
and costs 8137,034,925 annually. The
Austrian army is maintained at the
least expense per man of the primes of
the great powers of Europe, and the
British army at the greatest, costing
nearly three times as much per man
as the Austrian army. The army of
the United States is the most expen
sive in proportion to its size of any in
the world, and the pay of the American
private is the highest received by a
private soldier in any country in the
world.
We announce with pleasure—and
we are sure the announcement will he
hailed with no less pleasure on the
part of our readers—that our well-
known and highly esteemed fellow-cit
izen, Col. Nathan Bass has consented to
let his name go before the public as a
candidate for the anproaching Consti
tutional Convention. As, doubtless, is
well-known to all, this is one instance
in which the office has surely sought
the man. When approached on the
subject, bis invariable answer has been
that “the people might do with him as
they pleased—he should ever respect
their wishes.”
Col. Bass has been a practical farmer
all Kis life, and at present resides in
the country on his farm. Having been
a close observer of public events, and
an earnest participant in the discussion
of all questions of State, he is eminent
ly qualified for the office for which he
is announced. In addition to this, his
integrity of character has never been
questioned—where he has longest lived
and is bestknown there may he found
the most unquestioning witnesses to
his capacity and character.
record ? What has he- done for the State
or her people ? What is his war record ?
How muck fighting did he do? Whom
did he uphold ? How -much cotton did
he ship to Europe ? What was he worth
before the war and what after? How
did he amass his overgrown fortune? He
issued a vast amount of Georgia money,
and how much of it did he invest in cot
ton, and what became of the cotton ? If
he gained by it who lost? How many of
our people have got that Georgia money
yet?
Now contrast the record and conduct
of the noble Gordon with that of Brown,
his traducer. When Brown was specn-
lating in cotton with Waitzfelderand de
moralizing our soldiers, where was Gor

his noble soldiers, not following them—
putting his life iD peril every day—the

and valiant hero of a hundred battles—

Gen. John B. Gordon ? And since the
war he has been the epitome of chiral-
ric honor and truth—always battling in
behalf of the Sunny South and her peo
ple.

MUMCIPAI. INSURANCE.
A Way to Pay a City Debt Without I.os. to
Citizens.
The Russian army that was concen
trated at Kischenefi and that is now
marching unopposed across Roumania
to the Danube, consists of S,000 cavalry
and 120,000 infantry with 432 guns. It
will soon he swelled to 200,000 men
and 000 guns. Against this force the
Turks cannot immediately concentrate
over 75,000 men- The entire Turkish
force in Bulgaria does not probably ex
ceed 120,000 men, and it is stationed
along a line that is two hundred miles
long.— Constitution,
In itfour.ee lo Mr. Hayes’ “policy
we cannot help feeling somewhat unea
sy, fearing, as we do, that there may
be, after all, too much of the “policy”
about it. We should feel much better
were he, in reply to the taunts of the
Blaine-Wade crowd, to plant himself
squarely upon the consciousness of
right, and, leavening that “policy” with
the leaven of Andrew Jacksonism, to
undauntedly reply, “My policy is right,
and by the Eternal it must and shall be
carried out.”
Hon. A. II. Stephens is thus raported:
He believes that a party organization
based upon the policy of the President
wculd not take form immediately.
“What is to he the future of that sub
ject in this country no one can now
safely venture an opinion.” It wiil be
principles that will give character to
the organization which will spring np.
He did not believe the old Whig party
could be revived. From Jefferson
down to the time of President Lincoln
every President was a Jeffersonian Re
publican. All this time the principles
they advocated were the same as those
embodied in the policy which Mr.
Hayes announced in bis inaugural. It
will not do to force organizations. Let
the people alone, and let the policy
work its developements as to nominal
organizations in the future as in the
past.
7o the Editor of the Courier:
By a document at hand, I see that
the citizens of Rome have paid out
eighty-four thousand dollars for insur
ance during the past seven years, while
the losses by fire during the same
period have only amounted to three
thousand dollars.
Now, Mr. Editor, the citizens of
Rome have paid, yearly, twelve thou
sand dollars for insurance premium to
the insurance agents, and haye received
for losses by fire 8428 dollars and 57
cents, leaving a clear profit of 811,571
dollars and 43 ceDts, on no investment
of capital by the insurance companies.
Let us see how the municipal insur
ance will work: The citizens of Rome
pay to the city tieasurer 812,000 insur
ance premium, he pays the losses by
fire, 8428 and 57 cents, and has left
811,571 and 43 cents, which sum in
vested at 7 per cent, will produce 8810
of interest, or nearly the double of the
average losses by fires. By investing
every year the amount of premium
paid by the citizens, with the interest
from the previous investment, a sum
sufficient to pay the city debt will soon
be attained, as I said, without loss to
the citizens.
To guard against a large conflagra
tion, all the cities having established
the municipal insurance system, could
consolidate that system. If a large
conflagration were to take place in a
oity belonging to the association, that
would absorb more than the reserve of
that unfortunate city, all the other
cities could lend a certain percentage
from their reserve, charging a reasona
ble interest and giving a reasonable
time to pay back. Such associations
would be bo strong,that they could not
possibly fail; and would be the cheapest
mode of fire insurance that could be es
tablished.
To prevent the institution from be
coming a political machine, it should
not be managed by the city council, but
by a board of directors nominated by
the insured. Under no pretext should
the money from the insurance prem
ium be mixed with the money from
the taxes.

record but one of selfishness, and no

the people of Georgia any longer waste
their adulations upon a long head, when
it is weighed in the balance against
noble heart? No never. Tbe boys
Cherokee remember their war records,
and this day the noble Gordon stands
head and soldiers higher than any of our
honored sons. These are the sentiments
of the soldier boys of this section, and
no charges of Joe Brown or any other
man can wean them from their trust
and confidence in the man who was al
ways in peril with them during the late
struggle for liberty.

The people of Georgia to-day have
the privilege of discharging an unques
tioned and unquestionable doty : the say-
through the ballot-box that robbers,
wearing the mask of law, shall not
come unopposed in our midst, and steal
ad libitum. The duty which the people
of Georgia are to discharge to-day is so
self-evidently light that it has not been
discussed through the press—not even
being debatable. Then do not neglect
to discharge that simple duty, the voting
of “Ratification,” thus ratifying an act
passed hy two-successive Legislatures,:
and making it part of- the Constitution;
thus saving to Georgia thousands of
dollars by the non-payment of bonds
fraudulently issued by as undoubted set
o^mpkels as ever the four walls of a
penitentiary enclosed, and which only
could come to the political surface in the-
stagnant, putrid waters of Reconstruc
tion. • \
To the Editor of the Courier: _
With great mortification we have
learned that the author of the accusa
tions against General Gordon is his late
Excellency, Joseph E. Brown. We have
remained silent as to this gentleman for
several years—nevertheless we have not
forgotten who and what he is. We had
hoped that time, which cures many an
imosities, had made him more amiable,
and that since old age has been creep
ing upon him, he would have consid
ered his own record, and been more
charitable to his fellows.
Now the case seems to be that he is
and has been long aggrieved against
Gen. Gordon about something—we know
not what We have heard of many
things political that have gone wrong
with him, the last of which is that Col.
Lester was appointed Judge, and his
(Gov. Brown’s) brother Jeemes left out.
We suppose he blames Gen. Gordon for
this, upon the idea that he has undue in
fluence over Gov. Colqnitt and has exer
cised it We might go farther and say
that his Excellency is more irritated
with Col. Alston than anybody, upon the
idea that he controls General Gordon and
General controls the Governor. We have
not forgotten that his Excellency went to
Gainesville last summer and sounded
the key-note of his bngle in favor of
Gov. Colqnitt, and therefore he cannot
go back npon him now. Whether this
key-note was for “Jeemes’ ” sake or not
we are not advised, but certain it is that'
since Jeemes’ defeat, his Excellency is
mad with somebody. His Florida trip
has failed him, and of late all his politi
cal adventures seem to have failed. His'

To the Editor of the Courier:
On the 21st inst., our county lost ene
of its oldest ami most respected citizens,
bv t he death of Mr. George ‘-haw, who
lived fi.ur miles west of LaFayette. He
had suffered for some time with a drops:
cal affection. Tie was eighty years old

member of the Baptist church, and dur
ing his whole life had never had even an
alternation with anyone. His descendants
number, as nearly as he could tell, one

On Monday last, Mr. Ezekiel Mc
Whorter, known throughout this section
as “Uncle Zekel,” left LaFayette to visit
his eon, Mr. Benjamin McWhorter, who
for nearly twenty yeara has resided in
Ozark, Arkansas.
The return of speing is to be celebra
ted, on the 4th of May, by a picnic, at
Mrs. Johnston’s spring, one mile from
this place. The feature of the occasion
is to be a grand tournament. The victor’s
prize, in this contest, is to be the privilege
of crowning his “lady love” “queen of
love and beauty.” Many a knightly
heart beats high, in anticipation of this
privilege, and as many brains are busy
fashioning fitting speeches, with which to
confer the badge of royalty. Many
lovely face assumes a rosy tint, and twice
as many bright eyes sparkle with increas
ed lustre, in anticipation of sitting in
regal splendor, swaying the potent scep
tre, over willing subjects.
On Saturday, May 12th, the ladies are
going to decorate the graves of the Con

is not only a duty, but a privilege, and I
hope our people will never neglect it.

addresses on this occasion.

The Co rseTfTthc War.
As a number of people are anxious
to know what the war between Russia
and Turkey is about, we publish for
their information the following mani
festo of the Czar of Russia, which gives
the reasons for his going to war:
“Our faithful and belovtd suhjtcts
Knowing the strong interest we have
felt in the oppressed Christian popu
lation of Turkey, our desire to amelior
ate and assuage their lot has been
shared by the whole Russian nation,
which now shows itself ready to bear
fresh sacrifices to alleviate the position
of the Christians in the Balkan penin
sula. The blood and property of our
faithful subjects have always been dear
to us and our whole reign attests our
constant solicitude to preserve to Rns- :
sia the benefit of peqfip. This solici
tude never failed to actuate us during-
the deplorable events which occurred
in Herzegovina, Bosnia and Bulgaria.
One subject r before *|*rj was »to. effect
amelioration in the position of the
Christians in the East by means of pa
cific negotiations and in concert with
the great European Powers, our allies
and friends. For two years we have
made incessant efforts to induce the
Porte to effect such reforms as would
protect the Christians in Bosnia, Herze
govina and Bulgaria from the arbitrary
measures of local authorities. The ac
complishment of these reforms was
absolutely stipulated by anterior en
gagements contracted by the Porte to
ward the whole of Europe. Our efforts,
supported by diplomatic representa
tion, made in common by the other
Governments, have not, however, at
tained their object. The Porte has re
mained unshaken in its formal refusal
of any effective guarantee for the pro
tection of its Christian subjects, and
has rejected the conclusion of the Con
stantinople conference.
Wishing to essay every possible
means of conciliation, in order to per
suade the Porte, we proposed to the
other Cabinets to draw up a special pro
tocol, comprising the moot essential
conditions of Constantinople conference
and to invite the Turkish Government
to adhere to this international act
which states the extreme limits of onr
peaceful demands. But our expecta«.
tion was not fulfilled. The Porte did
not defer to this unanimous wish of
Christain Europe, and did not adhere
to the conclusions of the protocol.
Having exhausted pacific efforts, we
are compelled by the haughty, obstina
cy of the Porte to proceed to more de
cisive acts feeling that our equity and
our own dignity enjoin it By her re
fusal, Turkey places us under the ne
cessity of having recourse to arms. Pro
foundly convinced of the justice of our
cause, andjhumbly .committing ourselves
the the grace and help of the Moat
High, we make known to oqr faithful
subjects that tbe moment, foreseen when
we pronounced words to which all Rus
sia responded with complete unanimity
has now arrived. We expresied tbe
intention to act independently when
we deemed it necessary, and when
Russia’s honor should demand it In
now invoking the blessing of God upon
onr valiant armies, we give the order
to the Turkish frontier. .

A Gambler’s Heroism.
An Incident of tbe Burning of tbe Southern
Hotel ut St. Louts*
Time: After midnight. Place: A
gambling house in St. Lous. Dramatis
personas: Charley Tieman, a gambler
(professional.) A large party of gam
blers about a taro table—names un
known—well up in their business, but
bad characters.
Act 1 (and last.) A cry of fire, noise
and confusion without. Noise increases
and Charley Tieman move9 to the win
dow, A fire engine with clanging bell
shoots by in the darkness, leaving a
trail of fire behind. Tieman leaves the
window, leaves the faro table, leaves
his money, leaves his half intoxicated
companions, and goes down in the
street • . ' j.'
Near by is the Southern Hotel. That
it is that is burning. The flames are
already above the roof. The smoke is
busting from the windows. There are
human beings in the upper story. The
staircases are cut off by" fire. Ladders
are being raised to the scene. Charley
Tieman ascends and carries down from
the giddy heights a woman. No sooner
is she safe in the street than he mounts
the ladder again, and, in tbe face of the
flames, rescues another life from a ter
rible death. Once more be climbB np
the ladder, actuated by the fear that a
single human being may perish should
he not make the exertion. When he
reaches the window the smoke is pour
ing from it in volumes. He does not
hesitate, bnt gropes his way along the
passage, nearly suffocated by the dense
smoke which rushes along the corri
dors as through the funnel of a blast
furnace. This particular hallway is
deserted, or if there is left any sleeper,
tbe smoke has already carried him
into that deeper sleep from which there
is no awakening. The hot flames be
gin to take the place of black smoke,
and Charley Tieman is forced to the
window at which he has entered. He
is on the sill. He looks for the ladder
on which he has ascended. Horror of
horrors! It is gone! Hfs companions
have forgotten him and removed the
ladder to another window.
Below is the vast sea of human faces
lit up by tbe glare of the flames. Above
the heavens reflecting back the work of
the fire fiend, and each fitting cloud set
in bright relief against the back-ground
of blue and silver. Behind, the flames
are following hot, withering.
Tbe man stands in the window-frame
and thinks for a moment. A moment?
It is ten years. Ten thousand fancies
flash at once through his quickened
mind. The boy at bis mother’s knee
—the young man—amoDg his Bchool
companions—the man among the hard
realities of life. There is in the
picture a young face,- fair, soft, and
set off by a wealth of brown hair.
There is a father, a sister. There are
scents of wild recklessness. There are
hundieds of acts that—oh, if they had
never been committed ! . From below
come confused shouts of the multitude.
While he stands irresolute, the heat at
his back grows stronger, and over his
head the names mount np higher into
the heavens.' • There is bnt one hope.
Ten paces away is the ladder. He must
jump for It. There is small chance that
he will reach the rungs, but it is the
only one.
There is a moment’s prayer—perhaps
the first for long, long years. - A glance
at the fearful gulf, beneath; a glance at
the brilliant heavens. His friends see
him spring into the air, and they hear,
even above the puff of tbe engines, the
dull thud as his hands strike the runes
of the ladder. Then ai body falls
through the air. The crowd turn away
in horror, and it comes crashing on to
the bricks, changing in one awful in
stant that stalwart form into a shape-
les mass of broken bones and bleeding
flesh. It is lifted up slowly, carefully,
tearfully and carried back into the
room where the scene opened, and
from which only a short half hour be
fore Charley Tieman had gone forth
full of life and health.

Mardigan’s, out on North hill, sad one
evening last week, after they had been
amusing themselves with it in the par
lor, it was left on with all its connec
tions. JYoung Mr. Ponsonhy called
to 8$e Miss Arethusia that evening.
They had been sitting silent for soine
time, and young Mr. Ponsonhy had
jost taken her band and said, with a,
soft, tender, impassioned intonation;
“Arethusia, each glittering, star that
gems tbe lambient sky, each golden—
circled, soft-eyed houri of the—” and
jost then tbe telephone spoke up, .in
the big bass voice of old Mr. Mardfoan:
“By jocks. Maria, T’m ahont tired of
sleeping in a night shirt ripped from
the tail to the back of the neck, that
hangs on a fellow likea pinafore. Pve
spoke about this often enough, and jit
there ain’t enough woman around here,
to mend one night shirt, I’m going; to

Macon, April 24, 1877.
Editors Telegraph and Messenger :
This morning, among my various
squads of convicts, one of eight meD,
was started ont in charge of James Mc-
Michael, one of my most experienced
gurads, and when within a short dis
tance of the field of work—clearing up
a new ground—one of the prisoners,
Moses Butler, of Richmond, felled him
with an axe, which was followed by a
second blow by George Washington, of
Muscogee, either of which would have
killed him.
After the fatal blow they pilfered his
pockets, first getting tbe key that lock
ed the prisoners together on a chain.
They also got'from his person ninety
dollars in money—took his double-bai-
rel gun and repeater, and after getting
off the squad chain, ent their shackles
off with axes and made for Oconee
Swamp, about one mile off. There was
eight convicts in' the squad, all of
whom escaped save one, who .fled for
camp to tell the awfnl story of the kill
ing. We pursued them with one of
finest pack of nine bounds in the coun
ty, but after four hours’ pursuit they
swam the Oconee river, the dogs follow
ing them; bnt the hnnters, so fatigued
from the race, declined to swim the
river, hence the demons are at large]
A liberal reward will be laid for them
or either one of them.

Not Much Afraid.
A man with the most lonesome ex
pression an artist ever conjured up for
canvas halted at an eating stand on the
Central Market yesterday and said:
“My good woman, I have been' rob
bed of eight thousand dollars in the
city.”
“Poor man I” she promptly sighed.
“Yes, robbed of eight thousand dol
lars, and I am a hundred miles from
home, and hungTy and penniless.”
“And you want something to eat?”
“Yes, ma’am.”
“Yon shall have it Sit right down
here.” ;
He sat down and she gave him some-
coffee, a piece of meat and a biscuit
When he had finistied eating he said:
“Madam, did you really believe my
story ?”
“N >, sir,” she answered.
“YoWhought I lied, did you ?”
“I knew you did.”
“But yon gave me food.”
“So I did. My boy found a dog yes
terday and gave him more than he
could eat I simply gave yon what
waa left to save filling np the siop^
paiL” :
‘Madaip,’’ began tbe man as hia
month commenced to draw around;
“Madam, I—I don’t see whether I’m
ahead of the dog or the -dog ahead of
me on this thing, bnt I know you’re
ahead of both, and I feel sick. Yeq
played it well, and; if there’s any dying
jdeclaration in my easel won’t mix
yon in. Bye-bye, old gal—I’m failing
last”—Detroit free Press.
