The Gubernatorial Succession.
In view* of the death of our venerated
chief Magistrate, it. is interesting to state
the provision made for the Guberna
torial succession. Os course, many ol
our readers are familiar with
the constitutional provisions for
filling a vacancy iu the Executive oflice,
however caused, but for the information
of those unacquainted with the subject,
we present the paragraph of the consti
tution covering the promises, and the
enactment of the General Assembly in
furtherance thereof.
Paragraph a of section 1 ol article f> of
the constitution of Georgia provides that.
“In case of the death, resignation or disa
bilitv of the Governor, the President of the
Senate shall exercise the powers of the
government nutli such disability be le
moved, or a successor is elected and quali
fied. And in case of the death, resigna
tion or disability ol the President of the
Senate, the Speaker of the House
of Representatives shall exercise the Ex
ecutive j lowers of the government until
the removal of the disability by the elec
tion and qualification of a Governor.”
For the filling of a vacancy in the Ex
ecutive oflice in furtherance of the above
quoted constitutional provision, the Gen
eral Assembly lias enacted (C ode of Geor
gia, Section 1301; that
“Whenever a vacancy shall occur in
the office of Governor by death,
resignation or otherwise, it shall
be the duty of the' President of the
Senate or Speaker of the House of
Representatives, as the case may be, ex
ercising the executive powers of the gov
ernment, as provided by the eighth para
graph oi the first section of the fifth ar
ticle of the constitution of this State,
to issue his proclamation, im
mediately upon his assumption of
the duties of the Executive, or
dering a special election for Governor to
fill the vacancy so occasioned for the un
expired term, to take place at a time not
less than thirty, nor more than sixty days
from the date of such proclamation; and
shall convoke the General Assembly in
extra session, to receive the returns and
declare the result of such special election,
or to elect a Governor in case no person
shall receive a majority of the whole num
ber of the votes cast at such special elec
tion, ft® provided in the constitution of
this state; said extra session of the
General Assembly to convene within fif
teen days from the date of such special
election: provided, that if such
vacancy occurs within'six months next
preceding the time prescribed by law for
the regular election of Governor, there
shall be no special election, but the Pres
ident of the Senate or Speaker of the
House of Representatives, as the case
may be, shall exercise the Executive
powers of the government until such va
cancy is filled by a regular election.”
It is thus seen from the foregoing that
a vacancy having occurred in the Ex
ecutive office lion. J. s. Boynton, Presi
dent of the Senate, will assume the
duties of Governor, and order a special
• ■lection within the time prescribed to till
thu vacancy thus occasioned.

mortal tenement and winged its flight to
the abode of peace. In the struggle

statesmanship he belonged to a class of

with the gift of prophecy he became to
the generation that but recently assisted
in conferring upon him what he regarded
as his highest distinction, a sage.
Full of years and dignity, he has passed
away.

Alexander Hamilton Stephens
was born in Taliaferro county, Ga.,
February 11, 1812. His boyhood was spent
upon his father’s farm, but he was
enabled ultimately to enter the
old Franklin College at Athens,
whence he was graduated ,in
1832. He studied law and was admit
ted to the bar in 1834, and entered upon
the practice of his profession at Crawford
ville. He rapidly obtained a large
and lucrative practice. In 1836
he was elected to the Geor
gia Legislature, and was re-elected
lor five successive terms. In 1842 he was
elected to the State Senate. The next
year he was elected to Congress as a
Whig, and served continuously* till 1859.
Resolutions submitted by him in Feb
ruary, 1847, in reference to
the Mexican war were afterwards
adopted as the platform of the Whig par
ty. He was distinguished for his opposi
tion to the Clayton compromise in 1848,
and for the part lie took in the compro
mise of 1850. He strongly supported the
Kansas-Nebraska act of 1854, being
Chairman of the Committee on Territo
ries. After the collapse of the Whig
party lie acted with the Democracy, ever
advocating the . soundest Jeffersonian
print* iples.
In 1859, at flic close of the Thirty-fifth
Congress, Mr. Stephens declined a re
nomination, in a speech at Augusta on
July 2. During the memorable campaign
of 1860 Mr. Stephens sustained Stephen
A. Douglas, denouncing those who advo
cated a dissolution of the Union in the
event of Lincoln’s election.
. In November, 1860, lie delivered a speech
before the General Assembly at Milledge
vilie against secession, which awakened
profound interest throughout the country,
and led to a voluminous correspon
dence, letters passing between him and
President-elect Lincoln.
Mr. Stephens was sent as a delegate to*
the convention at Milledgeville, which
met on January 16, 1861, and there spoke
and voted against secession. He was
later sent to the Confederate Congress,
which met in February at Montgomery,
and was elected Vice-President of the
Confederacy. March 21st he delivered in
Savannah iiis famous “Corner Stone”
speech, in which he declared slavery to
be the corner stone of the new constitution,
as it was of the old. In April he was sent
t o Richmond as Commissioner to Virginia
from the Confederate States. He ad
dressed the convention there, urging the
union of Virginia with the Confederacy.
In his official capacity Mr. Stephens
was often at variance with the Confed
erate authorities, especially on the sub
ject of martial law. February 3, 186.5,
with 11. M. T. Hunter, of Virginia, and
John A. Campbell, of Louisiana, he held
an informal conference with President
Lincoln and Mr. Seward on a steamer in
Hampton Roads, which, however, was
barren of results.
After the surrender at Appomattox,
Mr. Stephens returned to Ills home at
Crawford-vilie, where, on May 11, 1865, he
was arrested and sent to Fort Warren,
Boston harbor, whence he was liberated
October 11 on parole. February 22, 1866.
Mr. Stephens delivered a speech before
the Legislature of Georgia favoring the
policy of President Johnson. In the same
month he was elected to the United
States Senate, but was not al
lowed to take his seat. In 1872
he was elected to Congress, where he
served continuously until his election as
Governor in November last. Governor
Stephens has been several times at
death’s door, but uniformly recovered
until his last attack, which was induced
by exposure incident upon bis trip to and
return from the recent Sesqui-Centennial
celebration at Savannah.

If a man is ever supposed to be generous
it is when he is approaching the marriage
altar. If a clergyman is ever justified in
speculating upon the pecuniary reward to
bo received for performing one of his
official duties, it is when he is about to
unite two happy hearts—especially siuce
such fees are usually turned over to the
clergyman’s wife for pin money. But all
men are not made generous by matrimony,
and sometimes clergymen are badly taken
in by the appearance of those who present
themselves as candidates for matrimonial
honors. Thus a Philadelphia clergyman
was recently called upon by a fashionably
dressed couple who desired to be made
man and wife. No doubt thinking to what
good uses his wife could put the $lO or S2O
which the envelope should contain, handed
him by the bridegroom at the conclusion
of the ceremony, he opened it only to be
disappointed by finding the following note:
“Reverend Sir—Allow me to thank you
from the bottom of my heart for the service
you have rendered me this evening. And
in time to come I hope that 1 will be able
to compensate you in a more substantial
manner. I am a poor man and have to
work every day for my living, and that is
the reason l cannot offer you more than
my heartfelt gratitude. May God. iu His
infinite wisdom, keep you and bless you.”
Despite the gratifying evidence ot piety
the note contained, we tear very much
that the clergyman was more struck by
the contrast between the attire of the
couple and the lack of a pecuniary con
sideration for himself. Had they came to
him in ordinary dress he would no doubt
have been glad to have united them out of
mere pleasure at doing a kindly act. But
to feel that people can put off a clergyman
with pious gratitude, while they find hard
cash or its equivalent with which to pay
the milliner, dressmaker and tailor, is
enough to arouse sarcastic reflections on
frauds in the breast of the most benevo
lent of men, Clergymen have good op
portunities of seeing this sham side of
human nature. Very often their best op
poi utilities come with the ringing of wed
ding bells.

Col. John Stephens and wife, Col. Grier

Washington, March 3.—ln the Senate
the unfinished business,the bill to exclude
public lands in Alabama from the opera
tion of laws relating to mineral lands,
was passed.
Mr. Bayard offered the following, which
was agreed to unanimously:
lies (deed, That the thanks of the Senate
of the United States are due and hereby
arc tendered to Hon. David Davis, Senator
from the State of Illinois, for the courte
ous, impartial and able manner in winch
he lias presided over their deliberations
and fulfilled the duties of President pro
tempore of the Senate.
At noon Mr. Davis, of Illinois, resigned
the oflice of President of the Senate, and
on motion of Mr. Anthony, Air. Edmunds
was elected. He thanked the Senate for
the honor, and said that as he thought he
ought to take an oath of office he would
ask Air. Anthony, a Senator oldest in the
service, to administer it. He was then
sworn in by Air. Anthony and took the
chair.
The credentials of Senators-elect Bowen,
of Colorado, and Colquitt, of Georgia,
were presented.
The Commerce Committee reported the
river and harbor bill without recommen
dation. Air. Ingalls moved that the re
port be printed, and that it lie on the
table until to-morrow. Agreed to.
This action settles the fate of the bill,
as it carries over until to-morrow the con
sideration of the bill itself, and as Sunday
is not a legislative day, no further action
can be taken by the Senate on the bill at
this session. It is generally understood
that the purpose of the motion was to kill
the bill.
The deficiency appropriation bill was
reported. An amendment was adopted
authorizing the payment to Charles H.
Reed for defending Guiteau a sum not to
exceed $3,000. The bill was reported to
the Senate and passed. The Senate then
went into executive session. At 4:40 the
doors were reopened.
The bill to refund to the State of Geor
gia money paid out for the common de
fense in 1777 was passed.
The House bill to afford assistance and
relief to Congress and the executive de
partments in the investigation of claims
and demands against the government was
passed. A recess was taken till Bp. m.
In the Senate evening session, the con
ferees on the sundry civil appropriation
bill reported their inability to reach an
agreement, and asked further instruc
tions. The Senate insisted upon its posi
tion, and ordered a new* conference.
The House joint, resolution providing
for a new mixed commission in accord
ance with the treatv of 1866 between the
United States and Venezuela, was passed
without amendment.
Bills were passed authorizing the con
struction of bridges across the Ogeeeliee,
Oconee, Ocmulgee and Chattahoochee
rivers in Georgia.
HOUSE proceedings.
The House adjourned at 2 o’clock this
morning, having spent the time from
11:20 until adjournment in discussing the
election contest of Cook against Cutts,
f.iom lowa. The ease was still pending
at adjournment.
The report of the tariff' conference com
mittee was not reached. The House con
ference report is .not signed by Senator
Sherman nor Representative McKinley,
both Republicans.
In the House, this morning, resolutions
in the Cook-Cutts contested election ease,
which declare thj contestant elected to
the seat, were adopted—yeas 155, nays
81—and Cook appeared at 'the bar of the
House and took the oath of office.
Air. Calkins, of Indiana, then called up
the South Carolina contested election case
of Lee vs. Richardson.
Air. Kelley, of Pennsylvania, with the
tariff conference report's in hand, raised
the question of consideration, and the
House refused to consider the election
case. Air. Kelley then submitted the con
ference report.
Messrs. Hubbell and Bayne demanded
the reading of the whole report of the confer
ence committee, which was ordered. As
this included the reading of the entire
bill, it occupied till 2:10 p. m. Owing to
the strain to which the voices of the read
ing clerks have been subjected during the
past few days they are quite hoarse, and
were from time to time relieved by
Alessrs. Speer, ofj Georgia, Robinson,
of Alassachusetts, and Miller, of Pennsyl
vania. The latter proved to lie an exceed
i ugly rapid reader, and greatly expedited
the completion of the long task. It was
arranged that a vote should be taken at 5
o’clock, and Air. Kelely opened the debate
in support of the bill. His explanation
of the effect of the bill as it comes from
the conference committee was practically
the same as that of Air. Alorrill last night.
Air, Hammond, of Georgia, sarcastically
asked Mr. Kelley what action the confer
ence had taken on the constitutional
question submitted to them.
Air. Kelley replied that the words of the
resolution of instruction were only per
missive on that point, not mandatory.
No further explanation could be obtained
from Air. Kelley, and Air. Carlisle spoke
in opposition to the adoption of
the report. He called attention to the
fact that the rates of duty were higher
than those named in either the House or
Senate bills, and he wished to know what
influences produced the result. The duty
of iron, for instance, had been placed at
50 per cent, in the Senate, at 20 per cent,
ad valorem, equivalent to about 57 cents,
by the House, while the conference report
assessed it at 7Ac. On cheap earthen
ware the duties had been raised about 33
percent. On cheap cotton goods, which
now pay 35 per cent, ad valorem, the
duty was raised to 40 per cent.
Air. Haskell, of Kansas, said he would
i vote for the bill because it was better
than the present law, but not because he
was satisfied with it.
Air. Robinson, of Massachusetts, was
opposed to the passage of the conference
report, for the reason that he considered
that the interest which he represented
(wool) had been wrongfully treated.
Air. Hubbell, of Alicuigan, said that the
inference might be drawn from the report
that the labors of the conference had been
so attractive and intense in the interests
of iron that other interests had been.given
the go by and stobbed a deadly blow.
Air. Speer believed that the' gentlemen
should take a patriotic view of the ques
tion. and that the w oolen men and copper
men should recognize this great attempt
to reduce taxes and to relieve the people,
now that the conference committee had
agreed, and that the Senate had
accepted the conference report.
Some men wanted to defeat
action, becacse their particular interest
did not get all the advantage they desired.
He told a story of an old negro
called “Fiddle Billy,” who was tried for
fighting and sentenced to receive thirty
nine lashes. While his lawyer, an old
methodical gentleman, was w riting a mo
tion for a new trial Billy was taken out
and got his lashes. When he came back
his lawyer said to him, “Never
mind, Billv. you will get a
new trial.” “Oh, no, master,”
said Billy, “for God’s sake let us have no
more new trials.” So the people having
gone through all this tariff' excitement,
wanted to get rid of it and hear no more
about it. He avowed himself a protec
tionist, and said that he would go home
and preach protectionist doctrine to the
people of Georgia. [Applause on the Re
publican side.l
Air. Kasson closed the debate, advocat
ing the adoption of the report. A vwte
was then taken and the conference report
was adopted—yean 152, nays 116. The
announcement was greeted w ith applause,
and the bill now onlv awaits enrollment
and the signatures of the presiding of
ficers of the twe houses to be sent to the
President for his action.
After fifteen minutes spent in the vain
effort to accomplish any further business
the House, at 5:45. took a recess till 8
o’clock.
M hen the House met iu evening session
the usual “last night” assemblage
thronged the corridors, and standing room
was even at a premium in the g- lleries.
The proposition made by Air. Belford, of
Colorado, to have the families of
members admitted t<3 the floor
met with objection. There
Mas a large attendance
of members, many of w horn. with favorite
bills in their hands, clamored lor recogni
tion, but the Printing Committee was
accorded the floor and several joint reso
lutions were passed for the printing of
various public documents.
The contested election ease of Lee
against Richardson, from South Carolina,
was taken up and w as discussed for more
than an hour.. But little attention was
paid to the speaker, whose voices were
drowned by the buzz of conversation in
the galleries and the louder shouts of
laughter from numerous groups of mem
bers on the floor of the House. Leo
was given fifteen minutes to speak
in his own behalf and Richardson
submitted his claims in a brief speech.
A vote w as then taken on the minority reso
lutions as a, substitute for the majority
resolutions declaring Lee entitled to a
seat, and they were adopted—yeas 124,
nays 114. There was a good deal of indig
nation manifested among the Democrats
at the result of this vote, as it
i 9 the first time this session when
the resolutions of a majority of the com
mittee have been voted down, and the
Democratic members were free in their
denunciations of what they claimed was
an attempt to put SIO,OOO into the pock
ets of the contestant. The majority of
the committee reported the resolution giv
ing the contestant leave to withdraw his
papers without prejudice, the effect of this
being to confirm Richardson’s right to his
seat, and the report was signed by Cal
kins, Aliller, Jones ofTexas, Paul, Beltz
lioover, Atherton. Davis of Alissouri, and
Moulton. The minority report was signed
by the remaining Republicans. The vote
then recurred on the majority report as
amended, and the Democrats refusing te
vote the House was left without a quo
rum, the vote standing yeas 128, nays 6.
A call of the House was then ordered.
A call disclosed the presence of 250 mem
bers, and further proceedings were dis
pensed with, but on the question of the elec
tion ease again no quorum voted. Anoth
er call was had and (face more a quorum
answered to their names. At 12:30 a
motion for recess until 10 o’clock to-mor
row was lost.

Washington, ALirch 4.—-At l a. m.
both Houses are still in session, waiting
for the enrollment of the tariff bill so it
may be signed by the presiding officers of
both houses in open session. They are
also awaiting the result of the conference
on the sundry civil bill, which ought to be
sent to the President to-night to avoid the
risk of its failure and consequent extra
session. A recess will probably be taken
from about 2 # o’clock until 9 or 10 in the
morning.
EX-TREASURER POLK.
Propositions Submitted to Tlim for An
swers by the Investigating Committee
—He Explains Some of Them.
Nashville, March 3.—The legislative
sub-committee investigating the condi
tion of the Treasury on Monday proposed
toex-Treasurer Polk fourteen interrogato
ries, to be answered under oath. The first
was as to the disposition of $50,000 in
United States bonds. The seventh inter
rogatory was as to the amount of Tennes
see bank notes and bonds, with which
Polk’s attorney proposed to make good his
liability to the State, and whether it be
longed to him or rtrhat proportion was
taken by him as collateral for money
loaned. The fourteenth was as to how
he obtained credits with the banks, by
w hich his treasury accounts were made
to appear correct. The other interroga
tories relate to disposition of accumulated
funds iu the treasury immediately prior
to his vacancy of office; if he had at any
time dealt in Bank of Tennessee notes,
and what became of them; whether he
speculated in Memphis and Charleston
stock and who were engaged with him in
such speculation; also, his relations with
Victor Newcomb, of New York, and the
nature of his transactions with him, etc.
Air. Polk, in his reply, does not answer
the first and fourteenth interrogatories as
to the disposition of the United States
bonds or the manner of obtaining credits
with banks, being advised not to answer
by counsel, as the questions involve mat
ters now in litigation in the Criminal and
Chancery Courts. In answ*er to question
7he says: “In the proposition made to
the State through my attorneys by some
relatives and friends, I understand they
expected out of the assets attached by
the State and my securities to realize the
last payment of $75,000 in the new issue
of the Bank of Tennessee contemplated
in said proposition. AVith that exception
I had no interest whatever in
the bonds or new* issue therein offered.
1 furnished none of it nor was
any of it furnished or to be furnished by
any one out of any assets or means of
mine held by them to my knowledge, and
no part of said money or bonds was ever
taken or held by me or collected for me
and loaned to anyone else. He says
further that he had $4,500 when lie left
Nashville; that his kinsman. Van Polk,
had no money belonging to him when he
went to Alexleo; he lias no property or
money or securities held by others in
trust for him; that he did deal in the
new* issue of the Bank of Tennessee,
and probably had at that time
$30,000 of them; had invested $45,000 in a
mine in Alexico, which is to be paid to
him out of the first receipts of the enter
prise; did deal in Memphis and Charles
ton stock in 1881 and 1882, and made con
siderable money, but had no partners in
the speculation; did not remember to have
at the time gone into stock speculations
with Victor Newcomb; may have invested
in stock upon his advioe, and New comb
may have given directions; does
not remember to have had anv
private transactions with him. I’olk
further claims that injustice has
has been done him in the committee’s
publication of the expert’s report, and
says there was not an investigation of his
office from the time he took charge down
