Thanksgiving by. the President of the United
States and Governor of the.State.
Lieutenant Governor Gleason’s answer to:
the rule nisi, says he ought not to be made
to show by what, authority, he holds the cjffice>
of Lieutenant-Governor by reason of any
thing contained in the? jufornfatifaTi oirfile in
this case, because the Court has no powir or
jurisdiction to order a rule >i is/, because the.
Conrt has no original jurisdiction to grant
leave to file an information of the. nature of
a quo icarranto; because the Court has no orig
inal jurisdiction under the Constitution and
laws to issue writs of quo warranto or to tTy
proceedings thereon; because the power given
said Court, if gftren at all by the Constitution
to issue write of quo warranto, can only be
used as auxiliary to (he exercise of appellate.
jurisdiction; because A. S. Meeker,represent
ed as Attorney, General of the State in the
papers served, was appointed by Gov. Heed,
after his impeachment,, that if the Court has
jurisdiction over the. information and quo
usrranto, it should not, in this case, grant the
writ, as public- policy, and interest do not re
quire or demand it, but on (he contrary re
quire that it should be denied; that Harrison
Heed has caused.'the .motion for' (hewrit
from malicious and vindictive motives arid to
gratify a spirit of revenge and rt crimination
against said Gleason, because he, Heed, knew
at the time of the eieetion-how long Gleason
had been a citizen of the State, and. advoca
ted his election, and' had at “that (tins frill
knowledge of all focte set forth in said irifor-
mation; because, the Constitution has given
power to the Assembly to imp'eaoh the Lien-'
tenant-Govemor, arid lie Senate has power
to try him and remove 'him from office; that
said body will soon be in session and exercise
the jlower if deemed necessary. He says
that for the above and divers, other reasons,
the rule against him should not issue, and
the proceedings in the case should be quash
ed. Nothing in the'answer claims compe
tency to qualify for the office held.

This authority may or may not be considered
good for this particular statement, but for
another made in the same cpnhection it can-
net be questioned. The staff officer informs
ns that the Louisiana Republicans did not
vote at the late election because they believed
that the tebete-propkl ^naker-iti unsafe for

the interior of Alabama has passed over this
road to-Savannah,- still the decrease faf re-
ceipts for 1868, as compared with those of
1866-67, is very heavy indeed. It will be seen
from the above table, that the receipts of cot
ton by the Southwestern road from points
along its line and ■ from other roads connect
ing with it, from the first'of September to the
23d of November, 1863, amount to only 48,-
312 bales; and should 5,000more.be received
ibiq month—a liberal estimate—we shall have
53,312 bales as the total receipts for Septem
ber, October and November—showing a fall
ing off in receipts this year, as compared with
those of last,'of 31,27Tbalea. j
Taking into consideration the facts that
cotton came forward early and rapidly the
present' year, and that the receipts of the
Southwestern road cover a much larger ex
tant of country this year than they did last,
the above heavy decrease ■ tells “trumpet-
tongued” of the small crop of cotton that
hks been raised this year. * .:
Of the 48,312 bales received by this road
since the first of September last, 10,585 bales
have been brought to Macon for storage and
sale. Nearly aU the balance was turned over
to the Central road for through shipment to
Savannah and points beyond.-:—3fcicoq Tele-
