Franklin, second Monday. Habersham, third Monday. Babun, fourth Monday. White, lint Monday hi November. Clarke, second Monday. Coapliauntaiy. At Banka Superior Coart the other day a nmneroualy signed petition was present ed to Hen. Emory Speer, asking him to give his views upon political matters. He complied with the request, and our cotem porary, the Belton North Georgian, has this to say oi it: "Mr. Speer is a born orator and states man, and his sojourn In Washington has added immensely to his already scholarly attainments. The people of the Ninth District have just cause to be prond their Representative” Elder D. W. Patman. It affdrds us much gratification tofieara, as we do from the Oglethorpe Echo, that this good man, who has been lor many years a prominent minister of the Primi tive Baptist church in this section, and who was stricken some time since with paralysis, has so far improved as to have been able to attend church a few days since and deliver a short address. This announcement will be hailed with delight by his many friends throughout this sec tion, and we sincerely trust that he may very soon be restored to perfect health. The Usury Law. The late session of the Legislature, as we think, did one righteous act, which was to lower the rate ot interest to be charged in Georgia. In order that our people may understand it, we publish the full text of the bill as passed at the late session. An act to regulate and restrict the rate ot interest in this State, and lor other purposes. Sec. 1. The General Assembly of the State of Georgia do enact, That from and alter the passage of this act it shall not be lawful forper any son, company orcorpo- poration to reserve, charge or take lor any loan or advance of money, or forbear ance to enforce the collection of any sum of money, any rate ol interest greater than eight per centum per annum, either directly or indirectly, by way of commis sions lor advances, discount or exchango, or by any contract or continuance or de vice whatever. Sec. 2. Be it farther enacted, That any person, company or corporation violating the provisions of the foregoing sections of this act shall forfeit the interest and the excess of interest so charged or taken, or contract to be reserved, charged or taken. Sec. 3. Be it further enacted, That the legal rate of interest shall remain seven per centum per annum, when the rate per cent is not named in the contract, and any higher Tate must be specified in writing but no bvent to exceed eight per cent, per annum. Sec. 4. Be it further enacted, That in all'suits hereafter brought in any' of the Courts bf this State upon any account, note, bond, bill, draft or other evidence of in debtedness, bearing date after the passage of this act, wherein a greater rate of inter est is claimed than seven per cent., it shall be incumbent on the plaintiff in such suit or notion to show affirmatively by proof that no greater or higher rate of interest than that specified in the contract so sued upop his has been taken, received, retained or in any way or manner reoeived, so as to be thereafter had or taken by any de vice whatever. Seo. 5. Be it further enacted, That all tiie laws and parts of laws in conflict with this act, be and the same are hereby re pealed. Approved October 14; 1879.. • Georgia Items. At the Rockdale county fair last week, ft gentleman had on exhibition a basketful of very fine corn, accompanied by certifi cates to show that it was a part of 153 bushels, raised, on one acre, in that ooontyl That beats us. Seme years ago Hon. N. M. Woodfln, of Bunoombe oonnty, N. C., raised one hundred and forty-seven bush els and three pecks on one acre, (land and com, both measured by disinterested par ties,) which was the largest yield we ever heard of ratfl the present Would It not be well hereafter.for our formers to 'en deavor to establish their oom cribs at home Instead of at the West. —Tho Oaf» . City Guards, of Atlanta, who axe now taking in* most of the prin cipal Norther* cities, are having a “ hog killing Hare* being feasted and treated with the most marked respect by the military and people wherever they have been. -Tbe Secorder says that if the Middle Georgia Agricultural College, at Milledge- ^ was ready tor business, before it bad been in operation one month there would be ene hundred and fifty statements in at- Atlastx, October 10th, 1879. The Henfroe trial, with all its sharp pas sages of legal law and galling invective, has closed. The result you know, and in your position can judge more clearly oi its probable effects, then-can we who are still onwounded by the smoke of this hard fought battle. Tbe sentiment in Atlanta is decidedly adverse to the decision of the Senate. This is generally made op from prejudice, as a Urge proportion of them neither read the evidence nor beard the arguments. Even though the facta were before you, which Mr. Renfroe did not deny, it would not have enabled you to form a correct opinion, because even tbe purest and wisest lawyers in the Senate, differed so entirely in their views of the law. ft was an exceedingly intricate case, and no doubt was a source of intense anx iety, to every conscientious Senator. As an evidence of the different views of the purest and wisest men, I state that Sena tor Camming was clearly and strongly in favor ot the acquittal of Renfroe, and on the other hand, Senator McDaniel (ol your District) was in favor of finding him guilty. No honest man oquld impugn the motives of either. As you would be especially in terested in tbe latter, let me say that his District should feel proud ot him. His speech was one of the strongest, clearest and most m^nly on hia tide. Indeed, many express the opinion that it was tbe best speech that was made on either tide. Quite an exciting little episode occurred in the House the other day, amusing, least, to spectators. The Bill for the erec tion of the State House was on its passage, when Hr. McWhorter moved as a substi tute, after the usual number of 11 where ases,” that the House should vote tbe cap ital back to Uilledgeville, subject, of course, to ratifiestioi> by the people. Mr. Fort (who had been one of the managers in the Renfroe trial) seemed very sore, and jumping up in ah excited manner, said that it tbe people could have witnessed the scenes ol the past few days in tbe Sen ate, that they would overwhelmingly re turn the capital to Milledgeville. Mr. My- natt, of Falton, quickly sprang to his feet, and called upon tbe gentleman from Lump kin to itemize any charges against Atlanta —bow sho was responsible for anything that had been done. Mr. Fort was dis posed to reply, but th < Speaker called him to order. But tbe excitement, applause and laughter in thr House, was amusfog to an outsider. M r . McWhorter, I under stand, says that it was done iu sport, thought iu this connection passes through my mind. I give your readers the benefit of it: It the people of Georgia could see the Legislatuie in session, there would be some very great changes made in the mem bership. Several most Important bills have been lost because a quorum was not present—many because the members would not vote. • When the yeas and nays were called for, the doors would be crowd ed by those who wished to have their votes recorded, and often without having beard tbe provisions of the bill I heard one member, during tbe call, ask that the bill should be read—as you see, an intel Iigentand useful member. There are number of first-class men in tbe House— principally young men—who promise to be oi great service to tbe State, In my judgment. Turner, ot Brooks, 'itti Miller, of Houston, are th<* clearest headed and strongest men iu the House. Young Amer ica is the ruling Spirit there. The Legis lature will probably adjourn next Wednes day, certainly not later than Saturday, 18th inst They have bad an arduous and ini portant session, and all ot them are anx. ious to be at home. There are two col. ored men in the House, and I was greatly pleased to .ee that they were treated with the utmost courtesy, by the Speaker and members. I have no doubt that tboir po sition is much more pleasant than it would be with a Radical Legislature. They were Invited with the other members to Gov. Colquitt’s, and are exceedingly well-behav ed, pleasant men. The agricultural bill is now being “doctored* by the House. From present indications, 1 think it will only exist in name, as no funds are being provided for any great usefulness. You have often heard that the time ot the Leg islature was occupied by lawyers, whose trade it is to speak. But I understand that there are two farmers in the House, who, if their speeches coaid be connected together, would occupy thirty of the eighty- five days of the session—quite a good record. Let me jay, in conclusion, that it is vastly more entertaining to read the re port, than be ptedeut in the sessions. The Constitution of this morning, is after Mr. McWhorter, of Grhene. He is too virtuous; his conversion is too sodden; but I think the reason of the httack is, his silly reso lution about tbe removal of tbe ospital. < Yours, truly, UaoAs.

Ohie, perhaps the pivotal State of tbe Union, in spite ot the most thorough and vigorous canvass oq tbe part of tlie Demo- crate, has gone Republican by a large ma jority. This result was accomplished in spite of the popularity of Ewing and Rice, the gsBant Union soldiers who beaded the ticket; In spite ot the eloquence of Thurman and Hendricks; in spite of tbe Vdfc%ifl “ hart” of money supposed to have been expended in the Campaign, by Uncle Sammy Tilden; in spite of all of this, it is impossible to conceal tbe fact that the Democratic party has unstained a very se rious defeat It is the policy ot wisdom and true statesmanship, to meet this emer gency manfally, and to examine and as certain, if possible, the true causes oi De mocratic defeat. Tons, it is clear that the prineipal reason for this disaster, is to be found 1° the unwise conduct ol tbe ma chine politicians in the Democratic party, who, in the extra session of Congress, threatened to lock tbe doors of the Treas ury, and to withhold ail money Jrom the several departments, needed fo* the sup port oi the Government We thought then the policy was unwise. We are the more confirmed in our opiuion now. Congress has the right, bec^pse of a disa greement with the President, to refuse all the usual and necessary grants or appro priation* for the maintainance of the Go vernment, Congress has tbe ri|_ stroy the Government, for this stroy it When, therefore, it was gravely stated by the so-called leaders of tlie party, that if the President did not give his ap proval to the repeal measuffes then pend ing, that no money should be voted to support the departments, the Northern people thought they saw a deliberate at tack on the very existence of the Govern- mett.'"'It was unnecessary and futile to attempt to convince them of their mis take. They have accordingly voted against our party, because some loud mouthed individuals declared “ that not one dollar should be voted, until every vestige oi the war legislatiou was wiped out.” That such utterances betraye 1 the rankest lack of statesmanship, it surely needs noargnmeitto prove; that such expressions were worse than useless, is demonstrated by the fact, that by patience and good judgment, and constant, opposi tion to the “ ultra” or Bourbon” elemont, the Democrats repealed every obnoxious law that they desired to repeal, and yet voted every dollar actually necessary tor the Government But the evil had been accomplished. Garfield bad beeD, by tolly, given the opportunity to say: “ In 1861, you tried to shoot this Government to death; now, yooaie trying to starve it to death.” This impression was fasten ed on the Northern mind, and a majority ot 17,000 Republican votos, is the result in Ohio. Not until their Representatives in Congress will bavo the manhood to main tain the devotion oi the Southern people to tbe Union and tbe Constitution—then, and not until then—will they have chance for justice, at the hands ot aUnion- loviog North. s ©PEHB1© 0FTME FALL A!© WINTER TRADI $150,000 WORTH OF DRY GOODS, PRICES!

The Judge and Solicitor-General of tbe Western Cirouit, opened Court in Faroes- vifle, on Monday morning last, and spent the whole week in the discharge of their official duties, and with the assistance oi the bar and juries administered the law in a considerable number of civil aud crimi nal cases. Tbe people of Franklin county were out in large numbers, and the usual semi-annual foil ot raiu occurred, which is as regular as the calendar. The farmers complain of tbe short crops, the low price of cotton, and the conse quent scarcity of money. On Tuesday at noon, it was announced that Hon. Emory Speer, member of Con gress, having been petitioned by a large nnmber of citizens, would address them at tbe court house, and the bnildiug was At once filled to its uttermost capacity by hundreds of people, who seemed eager to hear the eloquent and brilliant statesman ot the 9tb, give an account of his steward ship in the National Cougiess. Mr. Speer was introduced by the Rev. * rK "“^ u G. H. Cartledge, onqol the most prominent and popular citizens iu this section, iu very neat and graceful speech, in which he alluded in proper terms to the ability of our Representative, and the fidelity with wbioh he bad discharged so far the trust bestowed upon him. Mr. Speer addressed the people at some length, in his usual happy and eloquent style, giving a full account of bis official conduct since his election, and his views upon the political questions of the day, in an able and statesman like manner that won for him hearty and frequent applause. During the session of Court, we bad tbe pleasure of hearing for^the^first time, B. F. Camp, Esq., ot Carnesv<Ue, who acquit ted himself admirably.
