LARGEST CIRCULATION IN TH&ITY AND COUNTV
TUESDAY JANUARY 16. I860.
GEORGIA LEGISLATURE.
Tbe Slate Legislature re-assoinbled at Mil-
Icdgeville yesterday. It will bo seen by our
despatch that there was a bare quorum in
each House, and that both adjourned without
transacting any business. Less Interest is
felt now in tbe proceedings of the body tbau
was manifested during its first meeting in
December, owing to the very great uncer
tainty which then existed in reference to the
re-organization of the civil government of
the State, and the measures which would be
required ot the Legislature as a con-
didem. precedent to the -re-cstablisbment of
poJTtTeal relations with the Federal Govern
ment.
The line of policy deemed necessary to
meet the requirements of the Government at
Washington having been adopted, the latifi-
catiou of the constitutional amendment pro
hibiting slavery having been acquiesced in,
and laws introduced giving protection to
freedmen in their personal property and civil
rights, it remains no.v only to adopt a more
perfect code of laws for the government and
protection of that class ot our population—
to adapt the laws of the State to the new
order of things, and to enact such laws of
general utility as may be deemed necessary
Hud expedient.
The Freedoien’s Code, framed by the com
mission appointed for that purpose, aod of
which we gave a brief synopsis a few days
since, will be adopted with such amendments
:tnd additions as may be deemed neeessary.
The perfection of this code, with other kindred
matters, will occupy'much time, and will, in
all probability be taken up at once. A very
large number of bills and resolutions were
introduced during the first two weeks of
the session, but were not acted on owing to
the imperfect organization of the State Gov
ernment. These measures will now be
considered, and from our knowledge of the
body we anticipate a harmonious,enlightened
and expeditious discharge of the legislation
required by the interests of the State.
The^election of U. S. Senators, yet to be
made, will hardly be pressed upon the Leg
islature until there is at least some prospect
that Georgia will have need tor such repre
sentatives in the Federal Congress.
TAXATION AND ITS EFFECTS ON
PRICES, AND THE EFFECTS OF
CURHENCY ON PRICKS.
There are two causes that influence prices
and that act in the same direction. The first
and moBt influential is the abundance of
money, and the secoud is the rise of prices
in proportion to the premium on gold, or the
redundancy of the currency. The rise of
prices is a necessary effect of that increase
of purchasing power that augments demand,
and the rise of prices from which is the in
evitable consequence of the premium on
gold. The advance of prices from increased
taxation must take place to enable the pro
ducer or dealer to obtain the usual rate of
profit.
It is too hastily assumed that taxes iu all
cases fall on cousuroptiou. The influence ot
the law of'Remand and supply on prices, iu
consequence of taxation, is frequeutl}' over
looked. If there should be an export duty
imposed on raw cotton, the consumer will
have to pay it, as the supply, under present
circumstances fall bhort of the demand,
whether in the hands of the producer 01
dealer. If we iuvest the effects, aud sup
pose the supply to exceed the demand, the
consumer or dealer pays the tax in the fall
ot the article. If we suppose an excise im
posed, in proportion as the market is scanty
or abundantly supplied, the price is regu
lated by that proportion ; so that in every
imaginable case prices must advance or re
cede to preserve the level of profit. There
is a constant tendency towards the ultimate
incidence of all taxation, whether imposed
on exports or imports, on property or in
come.
Very little account appears to be taken of
the rise of prices from taxation. The rise
from the inflation of the currency is dwelt
upon almost exclusively. But if the advance
is attributable to both causes—first, the in fla
tion of the currency, and second, the increase-
of the taxes—it is unphilosophical to assign
the rise ofprices to only one of these causes—
the inflation of the currency.
It appears to us there is much confusion,
also, in tracing the proximate causes of a rise
ol prices from excess of paper currency.
Much of this confusion arises from confound
ing temporary with permanent causes. The
phrases, depreciation of the currency, excess
of currency, and equivalent expressions,
are only relative. The affirmation that the
present currency is three times the amount
of the paper currency before the war, can
never be brought to a test, because the
volume of the circulating medium increases
with the extent of the business to be transact
ed. and this cannot be measured from tbe
extent of the transactions in bank notes
merely, but from the whole mass of these
transactions on credit, bills of exchange,
checks, book debts, &c. The amount of
Government and bank notes in actual circu
lation as money being thus three times more
thau before the war, it is not denied that
this it in excess, ns compared with ordinary
■years ; but that it is excessive, as compared
with tit- requirements of the community,
is contradicted. Now that this is no
test of the legitimate wants of the commu
nity when business does not assume specu
lative excitement—when an extraordinary
number of bills of exchange, bank checks,
bank credits, book debts, and the Various re
presentatives of transactions on credit are
not issued—needs no argument to prove.
Against the excessive use of paper money!
whether issued by Government or bank'
history bears its full testimony, it follows
necessarily that the premium on gold i 8 the
real measure of the depreciation or the re
dundancy of the currency.
THE LATE MATTHEW H. MCALLISTER
To the Editor of the Herald:
Vour correspondent, “R. D. A.,” has claim
ed lor the late M. H. McAllister and his col
leagues in 1834 (of whom I would speak in
all kindness) merits and services which I
am sure, were they living, they would
prompily disclaim. The merit ol obtaining
the charter for the Central Railroad and
Canal Company in 1834 was certainly theirs.
But the main or first contest, and the first
charter, or which the second was in the main
a rehash, was in 1833, before Mr. McAlister
was a member of the Legislature. To the
Chatham Delegation in that yeat the merit
is due (if there be merit iu the mere success-
lul performance of an obvious duty) lor
proCcuring tbe first charter, under which it
is believed Col. Crugar made his reconnois-
sauce and report. The precurement of the
charter of 1833 was a first victory, which
was confirmed by the charter of 1834. _
Iu giving praise to Mr. McAllister and his
colleagues ihere was not occasion to appro-
propriale to them whatever their predeces
sors had done iu tbe common cause, nor did
their reputation require it. Such invidious
distinctions are not in good taste, and are
very lar from serving any goodend.. D.

Total number of miles of road now in ope

dition and will need extensive repairs. But
few cars or engines were lost during the war,
but they are all in bad order and much scat
tered over the country. The total destruc
tion of track and bridges will reach about
139 miles. The only station houses left
standing are at Nos. 2, 2 1-2, ID aud 14.
The process of repairing has been greatly
delayed by the difficulty of procuring and
retaining labor, of purchasing or hiring
teams and wagons, and of getting timber l'or
cross-ties and bridges. The superintendent
says their troubles are now removed, and the
work will hereafter progress according to
contract.
Release of Hon. Geo. Davis, of North
Carolina.—A private letter from a gentle
man in Wilmington, N. C., to a friend in this
city, states that he had just returned from
Washington, whither he bad been to bear a
petition for the release of Hon. Geo. Davis,
■who was Attorney General of the^ Confede
rate States, having been entirely 'successful
in his mission. The President, in response
to the petition, releasec^Mr. Davis, who has
eturned to his home in Wilmington.
Destructive Fire in Nazbvllle.
A terrible conflagration occurred in Na9h-
vi lie on the morning ot the 9th inst., invoiv-
a loss of life and some $200,000 worth of
pioperty.
The fire broke out in the wholesale gro
cery aud commission house of Cook, Monres
& Co., adjoining the International Hotel,
and spreading rapidly, oousumed three other
wholesale houses before its progress could be
checked—Messrs. Turman & Co., grocers
aud commission merchants, R. G. .Page,
grocer aud commission merchant, A. G.
Adams & Co., grocers and commission mer
chants.
The International Hotel, kept by Reed &
Durand, was damaged materially, the kitch
en being entirely destroyed, involving a loss
amounting to $2,000.
Tiie aggregate los9 cannot fall short of
$200,000, about one half of which is insured.
C. R. Moores, of Cook, Moores & Co.,
slept iu the counting room at the end of the
store, and perished iu the flame9.

The Southern Express Compant.—We
have received a circular, from which we
make the following extract:
“In pursuance of the original agreemeut
made between the Adams Express Company
and the Southern Express Company, five
years since, by which the former transferred
by sale all their property in the Southern
States and their right in the express business
in said States to the latter, the Adams Ex
press Company will withdraw on December
25, 1865, liom such railroads and express
routes as they operated during and since the
late war, and will transfer their business to
the Southern Company.”
The Southern Express Company is one of
the indespensable institutions of the day.
May its prosperity increase with its useful
ness-
Fatal Accident.—Yesterday, about din-
ner-tirue, Mr. A. M. Boutet, in the employ
of the Southern Express Company, was ac

ately, the family heard an explosion, and
a-’ *1° Bt ?Kgered into the room,
