The difficulty between Bullock, our bovine
Governor, nml Angier, our State Treasurer, 1ms
elicited considerable) comment nnd scnndnl for
Hovernl weeks; nnd the more it is discussed nnd
investignted, the more it is apparent that Bullock
is guilty of unlawful expenditure of the public
money—the) more he appears to be the Willful
violator of a high public trust, secured to him
through fraud auel rascality. His stubborn bo
vine Excellency is about to verity the' prodiction
of his political compeer, at one time kuown ns
Josoph E. Brown, but now disguised in the Ju
dicial ermine and kuown as the Chief Justice of
the Supremo Bench of Georgia, that his Excel
lency would bankrupt the State in two years.—
Treasurer Angier, a gontlcmau of confessed in
tegrity, laboring under the temporary holluciua-
dion of Radical loyalty, has charged the port ex
pressman with having used thirty-five thousand
dollars of the State’s money in violation of law.
lu order to investigate the charges so coolly, so
calmly, and yet so defiantly made, the finance
committee of the liouso of Representatives has
boon engaged for some time in “working up the
caHO,” and have succeeded in producing two re
ports—one called the majority and the other the
minority report—both of which wo publish in i

thollKPOHTKR last week. If we could only got our the Georgia press. The GrilUn .S7ur, however,
contemporaries to discuss the subject straigbt-
wonld do much more to advance the enterprise
than they do. Their support of it would bo
moro direct and positive; but as they persist in
writing “ La Grango or AVest Point,” wo are
loft in doubt as to which route they prefer. We
beliove, however, the sprightly Sun is in favor of
the West Point connection, while the sturdy
Enquirer leans in this direction; and, in its issuo
of Sunday morning we find the following edito
rial:
“ Another Indivkment. -One of the leading
objects that interested our city in the building
of the proposed railroad from Opelika to Tus-
cumbia, was the direct communication which it
would make with the great mineral rogions of
Alabama. That proposed enterprise now lags
—we hope to be again accelerated st a more pro
pitious time. But the need of facilities for pro
curing the coal, iron, marble, Ac., of Alabama
still exists. The cheapening of those articles
would be of very* great advantage to our citizens
and to nil the industrial enterprises of Colum
bus. The proposed railroad to West Point or
La Orange would probably, when completed,
form one link iu a railroad line connecting us
almost directly with those mineral regions.—
The project of a railroad from Griffin, via Now-
nan, Georgia, to North Alabama, is still in a
state of lively agitation, and assurances arc
givou that it will probably soon bo fairly under
way. Should this be the case, our railroad to
La Grange or West Point would give us a pretty
close connection with the lino penetrating North
Alabama, and would bring to us its mineral
treasures at prices tar less than those now paid."
In the local column of the same issue of the
Enquirer, the local editor says:
“ Much talk on the La Grange Railroad pro
ject via Hamilton. This is an iinnortuut move

It is also readily perceived that the brain of the

to remedy tlio evils roforrod to by the
Star that a convention should bo held. Of
course, it is not expected tho kind of journals,
tho Star so faithfully describes, will go iuto such
convention. By a press association it would
bo shown to advertisers which journals of tho
State cau be rolied on as advertising mediums
and fit to bo patronizod, and thus drivo out tho
“ratting" concerns guilty of the practices re
ferred to by tho Star.
The Romo CbiirUr comes to the rescue iu tho
following short, but pointed paragraphs:
“ We fully agree with the La Orange Reporter
in the idea that good might, and ought to be
Accomplished, by concert ofaction among news
paper publishers. Uniformity of rates, at least
of legal advertising, ought to bo established,
and mutual protection afforded against swin
dlers.
The Reporter suggests that tho publisliors
of the Stuto meet iu convention at Macon, March
10th. Wo would prefer Atlanta as tho place."
Wo would prefor Atlanta so far as we aro per
sonally concerned; but, as tho press of that'city
manifest no interest in tho proposed conven
tion, it would hardly be iu good taste to obtrude
it upon them. The Macon Telegraph favors tho
mooting, and it would bo bettor to meet with
our friends there. This is a movement that the
whole newspaper press of the State is concerned
in, both daily and weekly, and it is hoped it
will bo consummated.
Tho Cuthbert Appeal responds to the proposi
tion as follows:

Mr. bteclo said that members of tho wookly

tho Convention as tho members of the dully

Mr. Eggleston explained that ho made tho
inquiry on behalf of iho members of the weekly
press who were present.
Mr. Mayers, of the Hundsboro, Democrat,
stated that ho edited a weekly paper, but was
one o the delegates to this convention, from tho
Press Association of Mississippi, which ropro-
weekly as well as daily papers.
The President decided that by previous action
of this body, editors representing weekly journals
were entitled to representation in this conven

Now, we wish to say to tho Telegraph that it is
not proposed to make the contemplated conven
tion ono of the weekly press simply: it is hoped
that sufficient intorest will bo taken iu tho move
ment by the press generally to mako it a State
Press Convention. So, friend Clisby, wo expect
tho Telegraph to bo represented by its ablo and
indefatigable editor, than whom no better pre
siding officer could be selected, it being tho will
of tho majority.
Seriously, wo think that much good might and
would result from the deliberations of such an
assembly; and it is strange there should be a re
spectable paper, daily or weekly, indifferent to
wards tho movement.
Not a weekly press convention, but a State

This w-iioio question of the removal of tho
Capitol of the State has been a swindle from the
beginning to tho end. It was projected in a
spirit of iniquity and effected by the foulest
fraud. The majority of the people did not dc-
siro a removal at tlic time. Tlic tax-payers sec
no necessity for the expenditure now. But, in
order to secure the Capitol, the people of Atlanta
proposed to furnish the Legislature and .State of
ficers with accommodations for ten years with-
peoplo of Augusta. The road from here to Col
umbus cia Hamilton, will give them a chance
for the cotton from the rich cotton growing val
leys of Talbot and all of Harris county. It is a
matter of importance to Augusta, and it is hoped
the papers of that city will bring it to the atten
tion of their citizens.
Therefore, let every man who feels an interest
iu the La Grange & Columbus Railroad go to
work and endeavor to secure a largo subscription
l'or its construction. The Railroads interested will
favor the route that promises success with Jhn Au*,'

out cost to tho State. The proposition
cepted by the liognH Constitutional Convention,
and Atlanta was made the Capitul through the
rascally frauds of Eadicid registration and the
manipulation of Eadical registration officers.—
The City Council of Atlanta conferred with
Messrs. Kimballs and leased the Opera building
for the purposes of State government, which
they were to fit up for that purpose-the city of
Atlanta paying them a certain sum as lease-
money. Eut for the advancement of certain
parties, or the consummation of certain ends,
the State is involved in a debt of thirty-five
thousand dollars it did not contract to pay. His
•bovine Excellency, with the audacity of an un
scrupulous man, uses the people’s money in the
unwarrantable manner charged by Angier, a man
of known, integrity. Had the Capitol been re
tained at Milledgoville the petrified air of Icor-
ruption, perhaps, would not have reached tho
Executive.
If the Goorgiu Legislature are actuated by honest
impulses, nnd wo suppose they are ; if they know,
understand and appreciate their duties; if they
are not sold and purchased with the price of cor
ruption; if they have respect for themselves and
tfre honor of the State; if they have the manli-
11 ess and firmness to rise to the dignity of their
position; if they can perceive tho difl’ereuee be
tween integrity and dishonesty: we say if they
know, feel nnd appreciate their full and com
plete duties, they will at once bring Eufus B.
Bullock to a striot account for his Gubernatorial
peculations, present articles of impeachment
against him, and cause him to vacate a seat he
cannot appreciate, and which he has dishonored
by an unwarrantable use of the people's mouev,
amounting to downright robbery.
It is a good omen for tho public virtue of tho
State that the minority report has been adopted
by the Legislature; and it is hoped by the hon
est and overburdened tax-payers that there
is sufficient nerve and moral courage in that
body to prompt and force it to do its full duty
in bringing out and working up this case with
an eye singled to the protection of the State
Treasury in the future. Are our legislators
equal to their duty?

The faithful, loyal, and sweet-scented Badicals,
of Atlanta, were iu a "stew" last week. Bard
got as *• mad as Tucker,’’ and tho Era swooped
and flopped around like " an old wet hen" with
her head wrung off. The Eadical cauldron
1 ’ biled” over nnd put out all the fire of tho party.
Things worked badly for them. Tho times are
ominous nnd Bard has sent to tlio “ Hermitage"
for a big hickory stick, which he says
will
not break over the soft, flat heads of his Enili-
cnl friends nnd co-laborers. The clouds hung
with blackness over the devoted, not doomed,
city of Atlanta; but parting, the crash of thun
der was not heard to scare the people. Quiet is
restored, and the women and children do not
fear to venture o«t ou tho streets of the great
city.
Ou Thursday night, a meeting of Ecpublicans
who believed tho reconstruction laws of Con
gress are fully complied with, so far as Georgia
is concerned, was called to assemble at tho
Representative Hall. One of the Bullock kind
of Radicals called the meeting to order, and
proposed another of tho same sort to preside.—
That made tho conservative Republicans mad,
and a row ensued disgraceful to a respectable
body of men, but in perfect keeping with the
ono assembled. Afterwards the moderate wing
met anil resolved to have a meeting of their own
on Saturday night last, which eamo off accord
ing to appointment.
Dr. Bard presided,Bryant orated, and Cald
well, (our own ku-klux,) as chairman of the
committee, reported nine resolutions and the
band played two tunes, and all passed off as
merrily as a wedding party—tho “StarSpangled
Banner” cracking through tho brazen throats of
a Bcore or so of horns, Ac.
Now, we are perfectly willing that tho split in
that party may continue. It shows to the world
that it has no distinct principles sufficiently co
hesive to hold it together; that it is a combina
tion oi office-seekers, political knaves and thieves,
who only wish to plunder and rob the public
crib.

Friend Willinoham:—In complinnco with a
promise that I made you sonic days since, I will
now endeavor, in a desultory style, to give your
rendom tho benefit of my olisorvation and expe
rience in California—us my time and tho space |
which yon will bo willing to devote to a com mV,-
ideation of this nature is not great enough to
enable me to enter into nnything like a lucid or
deluded account of it.
First, as regards Ihe climate: It is, aH a whole,
most delightfiil—tho temperature boing, almost
without exception, such as you have in Troup
during the month of May. The nights aro cool,
rendering eovoring of one or moro blankets neces
sary to comfort; whilst tlio heat of tho sun,
which would otherwise be very intense, is tem
pered by eool winds from tho Pacific for more
tlmu one hundred miles from tho coast which,
blowing from tho South-west during tlio winter
and from tho North-west during the summer,
maintains au equilibrium of temperature which
can bo found no whore else. Whilst within the
limits of the State, oil small sections, nearly any
degree of temperature exists, from the frigid at
mosphere of the snow-capped peaks of the Sierra
Nevada mountains, to the torrid heat of some of
tho valleys of tlio interior. Au omiuont physi
c-mu told mo that it was his opinion, that there
is not a place upon tho globe that can compare
with California in the pureness of its atmosphere,
and the entire ubscnco of all diseases of a rnius-
mutio nature.
The soil of tho State is almost uniformly good
—the steepest hillsides being covered with a lux
urious growth of vegetation. The nutivo pro
duction of tho soil seems to bo confiuod, almost
exclusively, to wild oats; but in some soctious
there aro forests of pine, redwood and oaks,
which contain trees of fabulous dimensions. I
lmvo been told that in Colivuriu county a bar
and bull-room have, for their foundation and
floor, the stump of ono of those giants of the
forest, whilst many in tho immediate vicinity
are from 25 to 31) feet in diameter.
Iu tho wheat growing sections of tho State,
there is, however, scarcely enough timber for
firewood—all building material, fencing, Ac.,
being imported from tho coast of Northern Cali
fornia and Oregon. Lumber is, consequently,
very high —prices ranging from $25 to $40 per
thousand feet, for such us is used lor building
purposes; that for making wagons, farming ■uten
sils, Ac., is imported from New York, at groat
expense.
Wheat and barley are the only lciuds of grain
generally Ranted. The avorugo yield of the
State, now in cultivation, is from thirty to forty
bushels per acre; but in some sections it reaches
as high as sixty or seventy. Indian coin is pro
duced in but few localities—the summers with
out rain causing it to be too dry, oxcept iu tho
water courses, for its cultivation. Ou Russian
river, however, it iH grown extensively—tho stalks
frequently attaining tUehoight of from twenty to
twenty-live feet, and yielding from four to five
cars each. But tho few localities that produce
it, cannot satisfy the demaud l’or meal, even--
which is, I think, conclusively shown by its
pricu. It i.-i worth $4 25 inure per hundred
brought •la.OOROOi) to tlio Htntn. The sum total
of ito export* amounted to $17,000,000. The
manufaCturfjii of the State aro estimated nt $30,-
000,000 product per annum. Tho iucreaso in
Vrtluo of property last year 1h estimated at $21,-
000,000, whilst the influx of population is filling
the State with men from all nations, who in their
different homes have been ho reared that they
can now lorwurd tho development of its every
ruMouruo.
But I fear this will occupy too much of your
valuable paper. I will, therefore, for tho present,
cIohc; but nopo during tho next week to find
tiino to give you Homo idea of wlmt I consider
Rcrious Objections to California, and hope that
nono of our frieudH in Troup who are thinking
of migrating west will permit any thing in this
to iufluoucu their first decision until they hear
from mo again. \V. W. Turner.

Several weeks ago we resolved to give cur-
self no trouble or concern iu regard to tho poli
cy of Gen. Grant in his Presidential adminis
tration. All wc could see, as coining from his
lips iu regard thereto, impressed us with the
belief that Grant intends to be President, nnd
that he will hold his subordinates to a strict ac
countability. This, we confess, is a cause of
much gratification to tho country and is great
assurance of the conservative policy of his ad
ministration. Resigned to his election, ns the
people generally are, and without exception so
far as is known, Gem Grant will enter upon the
duties ofJiis Presidential term with tho moral
s’.ippuri of the masses of tlio people, of all par
ties, who will sustain him us long as he conforms
to his official duties, and not attempt to over
leap tho bounds of Constitutional rectitude.—
This we do not believe he will do. Iu the recent
Presidential campaign, we honestly feared thut,
in the event of his election, ho would bo as clay
in the hands of the potter; but his determined
course, yet modest deportment, since his elec
tion, impel us to believo that he is resolved to
do right as he sees the right.
. Thus impressed, we hesitate not to bay that
we, as a public journalist, having the peace and
prosperity of the country at heart, shall, at
least, array no merely factious opposition to
the new administration; but, we shall reserve
the right, manfully und independently, to ap
prove or condemn such acts of the President’s
policy as we may conceive to be worthy of sup
port or obnoxious to good government. These
we shall do without fear or favor or the hope of
rejvard. This, in our humble judgment, is the
true policy of all parties, and it seems to be tho
intention of the Democratic press.
In response to the committee from Congress,
appointed to present tho new President with his
commission, Gen. Grant gavo utterance, in the
first sentence, to four features of his administra
tion which has the ling of the true metal. lie

Everybody knows thut such a number in tho

Editor of the Reporter-Through your pa
per, I propose to answer many letters of inquiry
regarding our country. Government lauds cun
bo homesteaded—for 100 acres taken ns a home
stead -ami cost only ($14 50) fourtoon dollars and
fifty cents. State lands can only be entered, and
cost fifty emits per aero. Much of these lands
will produco 300 pounds of long staple cotton
por aero, the first year. This style of cotton is
bringing irom 85 cents to $1 05 per pound, this
season, in Savannah. Sumo Stylo of lands pro
duct- irom 12 to 16 bushels corn por aero. Much
of this land will, properly cultivated, yield 12 to
15barrels syrup— equal to any syrup made in
Louisiana, ltico grows splendidly; potatoes and
vegetables grow iu abundance; orungos, lt-mons,
Ac., very fino. With proper cure, an orange tree
is supposed to yield a fair crop in five y«-urs,
Irom the seed. I planted, say ten thousand
Hoed, about tho middle of December. Many
sprout-8 liuvc already come up, aiul havo from
two to four h aves, in our garden.
Nmv, wc have all kinds of vegetables growing
beautifully; yet this lias boon Iho coldest winter,
so say tho old settlors, that wo have had in t wen
ty-one years. The oraugo trees wero nipped a little,
but many think it has beau sumo advantage to
the trees, as all tho old leaves have dropped off*,
which will bo undoubtedly some advantage, as
! tlio now ones have como out beautifully and are
j very full of blooms’, and tho coming crop promises
i a heavy yield.
Any ono with half industry and some pattern'*
I can, in a few years, Ihj independent, jinanviall'j.
' I would advise all now comers to rent land,
| tlio first year, and have an opportunity to look
! “vmr the eouutry and select such lauds us may
I bettor please them. Thero is no trouble to rent
| lands here, as labor is scarce ami high. Would
i advise parties coming to this county to bring
with them stock and laborers, us both arc scarce
and high—say, ordiuury mules, $175 to $225 n
| head; good horses, $200 to $300.
I I came to this county in June last, and re-
mained all tho summer, nnd I have lived in* no
country that lias proved moro healthy than this.
Capital is much needed in this county, to make
it the garden spot of the United States.
As for myself, 1 am highly plenstil with the
prospects. I have a trading post among the Indi
ans, nud spend a portion of my time in their
country, which gives mo a little advantage over
thepuMV, us a man must he all right or he goes up.
You can publish such of this letter as will be
of any interest to my old. friends around La

“OldHickory," Mr. Samuel Bard, M. D.,
D.D.S., D.D., LL.D., the forerunner of General
Grant, the. Folitieal Messiah of the Western
Hemisphere, finds it quite convenient, us well as
a precautionary measure, to carry a heavy, tough
hickory bludgeon with which to cudgel discip
line uud manners iuto the heads of his party
friends. Whale away, Doctor; you are en-titlcd
to do so.
There are now two wings of the Radical
party in Georgia—0110 in favor of negro equality
straight out, and the other iu favor of the white
man’s holding office exclusively. Bullock, Blodg

Bard, Bryant, Caldwell, Johu Harris, und others,
leaders of the other.
A letter is lying in the Huntsville Postoffiee,

Legislature. He would, we are sure.

u-o thousands of acres of Government lauds,
which cun be had for $1 25 per aero, to be paid
for iu five years after date of purchase. But
these lands are so located that ’twouldbo almost
impossible now to get their produce to market;
but some of them equal iu richness of soil to
any in the State. As soon, however, as these
lands are settled up, the iron horse will find his
way to the homes of the settlers, and they will
become as valuable ns any.
The Legislature lms already granted charters
to over one hundred Railroads. There is now
iu active operation, over twenty distinct lines;
and when the great trunks of tho Central and
Union Pacific Railroads are completed, branch
roads from it will be built to all parts of the
State, and tho thousands of imigrants which
are pouring iuto California, will find, in wlmt is
now the uninhabited portions of tho State,
homes, where tho exercise of enterprise .and in
dustry will build up for them, in a few years, in
dependent fortunes.
There is always open a fino field for specula
tion in the uativo productions of the soil, as
well as in imported goods. Business is brisk
the year round; and any man willing to work is
never thrown out of employment iu California.
But there are no “easy places" there for fastidi
ous young gentlemen to drop into. All who go
there and succeed in building up fortunes, go
with a determination to work—work at anything
they find to do, ’till they convince tho people
they are willing to work—then, almost, any
place they wish, and are capable of filling, is
open to them.
The inhabitants are a whole-souled and gen
erous people, and willing to help all who show a
disposition to help themselves.
There is a free school system throughout the
State, with an efficient corps of teachers. The
Rev. O. P. Fitzgerald, a member of the Southern
Methodist Conference, is the superintendent of
the schools at large—a courteous Southern gen

soldiers owe lueraeious places as teachers.
