A Bill
i To he entitled an act to amend the charter
of the Macon and Brunswick Railroad
Company and to authorize tbe extension
northward of said Railroad from the city
of Macon, and to protect the State of
Georgia from loss ou account of endorse
ment of the bonds of said company, and to
provide for said extension.
A Bold, not to say Impndent Conn try
Editor.
Brother McMicheal, of tbe Thomaalon
Herald dares to take the Constitution to
task on the moral question. Thus he saith.
“This very moral j carnal is certainly de
viating from the strict course it formerly
pursued. Some months since it was in its
own estimation the journalistic standard of
refinement and morality. . It w»a the strong
advocate of truth and the champion of the
moral code. But alas! the spell has chang-
ed. Some months since it went into the
‘drawing business,” and the mantle of mor
ality has fallen unheeded from its shoulders.
This raffling business will lead even journal
ists from the path of true morality. As an
evidence of the Constitution’s wandering,’we
notice a lengthy clipping from the Spirit of} eion. and to protect the State from loss on
the Times, headed “A peep in Miss Floras I °f euduraemente of the bonds of said
Section 1. The General Assembly of the
State of Georgia do enact, That the charter
of the Macon and Brunswick Railroad Con>„
pany be so amended as to authorize the ex~
tension c f said railroad northward from the
city of Macon to the Georgia railroad, at
some point to be selected by the present
Board of Directors of the Macon and Bruns
wick Railroad Company, and if said Compa
ny shall at a future time determine to extend
the said road north of said point on the
Georgia railroad, the same shall be extended
to the city of Gaiosville.
Sec. 2. Be it further enacted by the au
thority aforesaid, That for the purpose of
securing (he rights of way for said extension,
said company shall have all the powers con-
ferreu by the charier upon said company, as
well as the power to buy, lease, hold, receive,
and use property; real and personal of any
kind, for the purposes of snid extension, gs
may be conferred in said charter and all
other powers necessary for said extension.
Sec. 3. Be it further enacted bj the au
thority aforesaid, That for the purpose of
enabling said company to build said ex ten
peep m
Dressing Room." The mysteries and won-
ders of tbe undress In giving a lengthy
description of tbe Ballet io New York, of
course the Spirit of tbe Times could not be
very chaste and moral. This moral dicta
tor, in its Sunday issue, copies the full ar
ticle from the times as a fit morsel for Sun
day reading. If raffling ha9 this effect we
hope tbe country press will abstain from it
and be the moral preservers of the country.'
Abe Thet Good Fabukbs ?—The Tupelo
(Miss ) Journal has been informed by mer»
chants of that place that they are having
more than double the applications for credit
they had at this reason lost year. They say,
too, that these applications are from those
farmers who have been considered the best
in the country, and are for com and meat.
Whereupon the Journal comments and says
The idea of using t-ucb a misnomer as ‘good
farmer* to a man who, in the month of Jun
uary, wants credit for corn and bacon is ab
surd. He may be a good neighbor and a
clever gentleman, but he is not a good farm
er. The only hope of crushing out this suici
dal policy of raising nothing out cotton, is
through the Grangers. If they do uut bring
about tbe reform, then, indeed, is all hope
lost.”
We venture the assertion that at least one
half the Grangers in the cotton region, will
plant more cotton than ever before. Each
one will hug the delusive hope that all the
rest, will adhere in good faith, to the pledge
to plant less cotton and more grain, and ga
in for a big crop on their .stupidity.
Reported lie fits.
Any number of papers have published the
following estimate leaded and without credit..
The figures approximate the truth, but the
exact nominal amount repudiated by Geor
gia, was $8,467,000, which she could have
cancelled for a square endorsement of
2 290,000:
The history of Republican financiering in
the Southern States is generally embraced
in two chapters—first, extravagance, sec
ond, repudiation. The bill which has re
cently passed (he Louisiana (Kellogg) Leg
islature for the refunding the State debt
provides for a repudiation ot four-tenths, or
$10,000,000 of i.; '
$15,000,000, it agrees
special taxation for (hat purpose. The hill
effecting this redaction is & constitutional
amendment, which is to be submitted to the
people. They will undoubtedly adopt it.—
As nearly as we can estimate, without care
ful enquiry, the amount of debts contracted
by Republican Legislatures in the Southern
States, now repudiated or disowned, is
about as follows:
Georgia $ 8,000.000
South Carolina......... ..10,000,000
North Carolina 15.000,000
Louisiana 10,000,000

Meeting of the Savannah Bar-
of thd Committee.
Rei
port
There is now a genuine and strongly
pressed effort on the part of New Yo*k, Bos-
tou and Philadelphia importers to have the
duties on real hand-made laces reduced from
sixty to twenty per cent. Last week a peti
tion presented by Hon. S S. Cox bore the
signature of evc**y New York importer of real
lace except Mr A T Stewart, who was not at
home to sign it. It asked for the passage of
a bill, now in tbe Ways and Means Commiu
tee, reducing the duty to Lwenty per cent.—
It appears that the high duty has encouraged
fraud on the reveuue* to such an extent that
the largest importers have almost abandoned
the importation of real lace, and even now
coufiue themselves to the importation of spe
cial patterns. They can buy the laces in
New York and Boston for twenty per cent
less thau they can import them.
With a high duty on diam >nds the govern
ment would cpllc.ct very little revenue, and it
is placed at ten per cent ad valorem to avoid
making it a premium on fraud. Laces ore
like diamonds in comprising great value in
small balk* Jsffray & Co have in their store
a piece ot lace five yards long that is worth
Sl.200 a yard, and a man could, crowd (hat
piece of lace into his wratch fob or pocket
bouk. It bos been ascertained that women
make regolar annual (rips to Europe and buy
immense quantities of laces, which they sew
on their garments os trimmings so that the
custom officers cannot seize them. These are
sold to regular dealers iu New York who buy
them with avidity and pay (he smugglers
handsome profits.
Real laces are ob.ained by dealers in Eu
rope from tbe poor classes of France. lUly
and Germany The French peasant women
are the hteet artists in iib manufacture; but
after the French furnish the p itiern some of
German women execute it. It takes a woman
years to complete a pattern of a few yards of
lace. The material oi which it is made is ihe
merest (rifle in makiug up the value. The
labor expended .makes tbe art cle cost so
largely These laces are regarded by wear
ers as lovers of art admire flue pointings.—
The imitations are nil woven and are not ea
sily smuggled, because of some kinds a large
dry goods box loll is worth- probably not
more thau $100.
Ou (he other baud, real guipure lace.made
of silk, is worth from 15 c<*uts to $17 per
yard ; vaiencirnnes. cotton, 45 cents to $40
per yard; point applique, codon. $150 to
$80 per yard; point gatiZf, cotfou, $7 to
$000 per yard. The $1,200 a yard lace, men
tioned above, is poiui gauze, but that piece is
exceptionally valuable It took a prize at
lb* Crystal Pawnee London. Cluny lace is
worth 30 cents to $7 a yard. It is made of
linen. Real black thread iace, eilx, is worth
from $2 to $2 50 a yard. The same grades
of lace are produced in bankerchiefs, coiff*
ures. shawls, sacks, etc , which articles are
sold at prices that, in some instances, seem
fabulou*.—AT. V. Journal of Commerce.

“I and My Husband can do Without.’*—
Shortly Before six o'clock Monda> evening
a laboring man, accompanied by his wife
and six children, entered the Mulberry street
station, New York, and asked Cnpt. Clinchy
to give them shelter for the night. Captain
Chinchy told Doorman Burrell to pat them
into one of the warm cells on the first floor.
Soon after the woman asked to be allowed to
go out and get food for her children. Seeing
how weak she was Capt. Clinchy told her
to give bim the money and he would send
Burrell out, The woipan handed Captain
Clinchy four cente. “.What !*' exclaimed
Clinchy, “what sort of a supper do yon io<*
tend to . get with this ?’* “Bread, sir !'*
^WtU, yoa won't get enough for you all for
four cents.” “That's so, captain, bat I and.
my husband can do without it.” Handing
her tbe four cents- Captain Clinchjr, accom
panied by Barrell, went to a neighboring
baker's and relumed with three loaves, some.

The following memorial was pretented by
the chairman of tbe committee appointed on
the address to Congress.
To the Senate and Home of Representatives •
the United States of America in Congress as*
seniblcd;
The undersigned, your petitioners, of the
sum rot s of those who served in the war of
the United States against Mexico, in the years
1846. 1847 and 1848, respectfully invite the
attention of yonr hono.able body to the con
scientious consideration of a few facts im
portant in their estimation, und humbly
crave that the prayer of this petition may be
mercifully granted to them as a recognition
of, nnd reward for the valuable services they
rendered the Government and people in that
war. Although more than a quarter of a
century has elapsed since the establishment
of tbe peace which followed that sanguloqry
struggle, it is noL presutued tfiat the rcmqrk
able events of that period are so remote as to
have passed froqt the memory of those who
then lived, or of so little consequence as to
have received nonttentiou from these who
have gl aned their knowledge of the past
from the pages of history. It fa not (bought
to be necessary, at least in this brief memori
al, to enumerate the many marvelous benefiis
that have resulted lrotn that war to this
country and its numerous inhabitants, even
though it might not be amiss, and wc earn
estly eutreat that hereafter we may he al
lowed, at some early future da3’, to bring
vividly to yoqr recollection some of these ex
traordinary advantages. For the present,
safflice it to say that the immense territory
acquired through that wrr, extending from
the Pacific coast, has opened to our govern
ment and people tbo commerce of the world,
while the precious ores concealed beneath its
surface have served to increase the wealth of
the people and develop the latent resources of
tbe country in a degree unparalleled in the
prosperity of any nation of ancient or modern
civilization. But while thousands upon thou
sands who never shared in the dangers and
deprivations of that war have been immeas
urably benefited by the aquisition of that
vast territory, very, few of those who wen
that precious possvtnou by their bravery aud
blood t ave every realized ar*y advantages,
direct or indirecr, from (heir own glorious
achievements If is a painful fact to record
that very many of those who fought valiantly
in that war for the honor of our flag, the
rights of our nation, aqd tbe peace which has
ever existed between us and our sister Re
public, qre now not only poor in this world’s
goods, so essential to the comfort of human
happiness, but absolutely destitute of tue
very necessities of exirteuce, nud pensioners
upon the ebari y of those of their comrades
in arms whom fortune has more highly fa.-
vored. There are many o hers not so poor,
but still poor, whom (be pittance we crave of
our country would save from much future
unavoidable suffering, while it would enable
tlinse above want to bestow their charity more
libeYnlij upon those who are in distress aud
ue* litutiou. Your petitioners, therefore,
humldy pray } our honorable body, m view
of their valuable services to the country, the
long period of time that has since elapsed, lb'*

Pursuant to adjournment the committee
appointed last Saturday to draft suitable res
olutions in re.-pecl to tbe memory of Judge
William Law, met at the Court House yester
day morning, at half past nine o’clock. The
meeting was called to order by Judge Flem
ing, Chairman, wheu Mr. Henry Williams, in
behalf of the committee, read the following
report, which was unnn'mou.sly adopted:
IS MLUOltr OF TIIE HON. WILLIAM LAW.
It se*uH but a short while since the mem
bers if this Bar turned sorrowfully away
from the new made graves of two of our moat
prominent and honored btefhren, yet already
are we again called to lament the loss of an
other, and ibis time the veteran of the pro
fession, the oldest and most disiiugufahed'of
our fraternity, llo.w William Law. The
sleep and silence of the tomb have swallowed
up nil his learning, and geuitis also, and
hushed forever all his eloqutuce. It fa with
a sad fatiefnetiou that we perform the duty
of offering a t ribute of affection and respect
to his memory. Sad. because the many links
which bound him to us in personal and pro
fessional relations cannot b« thus snapped
without causing a shock of p*m to us all.
Safi.-faction, because ire ft-el that no eubg
ium that we maj render c*u b© over meas
ured or too lolly for bis genius, ability and
moral worth. The reputation of Judge Law
was commensurate not only to the limits ot
the-S*a:e of Georgia, but mended far bi
yond them, and ivas recognized by the p»-o-
fee9t>>n all over Ihe country. Y* t imt many of
this bar now surviving knew'our deceased
friend and brother in the vigor of his life and
in the ph ntifude of his intellectual power. A
few only can recollect him nv the compeer of
Uerrien aud Cuyler, and He A Vi\ler. and Chart
ton, in those day* when •* tlieri were giants ’
in the forum, but to the larger number his
great fame is known rather from tradi«ion
than from their own contemporaneous per
sonal judgment It is the duty and Ilia priv
ilege of this bar to recognize that tradition
as founded in truth aud justified by amplest
merit, nnd to take c re that\our records
Should so embalm it that it mtoy nut fade
away .and perish. In truth there is no class
of men of culture upon whom! rests more
strongly the obligation of perpetuating the
memory of their illustrious dead by .suitable
and solemn memorials than upoh the mem
bers of the legal profession. The architect,
the painter, the sculptor, tbe historian, the
inventor, the author, the astronomer who has
•ecu
” A new planet swim into bis ken,” *
may each, while living, <lictalt* Ids own epi
taph and say •• Si monumentum qiiseris eirevrn
tpieef* but nearly all the intellectual triumphs
of the lawyer, great Nnd valuable to society
as they may be, are meiely ephemeral and
perish unrecorded, often unheard of beyond
a narrow space of country and a limited cir
cle of anditors. With the exception of those
whose opportunities and tastes have enabled
them to give to the world, in a pefrnaneut,
f«rm, ib® resalts of their studies fa some par
ticular branch of legal science, anil of those
whose high judicial positions enible them,
like Mansfield and Marshall and Taney and
Story, Jo embody their teaming and elo*
quence in published decrees, or tliose whose
career as statesmen have attracted attention
to their reputations as lawyers, I bp greatest
minds ot the profession, notwithstanding un
wearied labor and splendid succe9i, must be
content with the rewards of the present, and
not be cheered even by the dim prospect of
some uncertain hope of fntnrc famet
There is no profession that demands a more
remarkable uuiou of moral, physical aud in
tellectual qualities thau that of the law
Cicero*s de>eriplion of what an Orafar should
be answ rs well to the requisites for a lawyer
of the present day. There fa no profession
that requires more earnestness of character
and purpose, greater intellectual tod, a read
ier recollection, a more retentive memory, or
higher standard of moral principled - There
fa nothing in science or literature, hi states
manship or diplomacy, in the study;of hu
man character and social rights, that is not
connected with the duties and the experience
of the true lawyer. Yet the intellectual in
fluence of lawyers whieli has created treaties;
constitutions and laws, and moulded the fate
of nations, has often left only tbe evidence
of a practical result without a record.or their
own labors. The arguments which* deter
mine the decisions of tribunals of justice, (he
^eloquence which persuades juries and sways
masses of men, die away aud leave no other
echo of their utterance than that of the
* begining of his professddnvl life he assumed
• a high stand at (Lie bar, and thenceforth con-
| linued steadily to move forward. Every ntoji
j that he took on the march was one iu ad-
v an ce— **2V alia vestfgia retrorsuin an J w h
the hand of Death checked his progress he
had long fairly wou the goal of an honorable
aad geuerous ambition.
We will receive no longer his in9trucliv
counsels; we will experience no more the
delight oi his friendly social iutereoursi
and of his courteous kindnc&s. Who can
henceforward fill his vacint place !
A fit offering to his memory will be a de
termination to emulate his virtues and imi
tate hfa example,
“Lives of such men all remind us
We may make our lives sublime,
And drparting leave belting us
Foot-prints in the t-auds of time ;
Foot printH which perhaps some other
Tossed upou life’s stormy main,
Some forlorn and shipwrecked brother,

"Citjus est solum tjtu esl usque ad cxluin.’'
What grander eulogy can be pronounced
upon our illustrious departed friend and
brother than to say that he filled iH Ihe re
quirements of his profession, and that hfa
whole life was an examp e of strict aud loyal
conformity with them; that the principles
which guided his moral life attended hint al
ways in the discharge of his pro sessional du
ties; that he bad mustered every branch of
the complicated science of law, and never
shrank from any labor or any responsibili
ties impo5ed upon hint!
Wecanuot be expected to allude particu
larly to all of Judge Law’s various relations
to this community. During his long and
eventful life, be touched society at so many
poiutsof contact that his death, while agita
ting nnd affecting them all, causes each one
of them to thrill and respond according to its
owu peculiar sensitivenees and its nature ana
character. The several associations with*
which he was connected, the church of which
he was a member, the community of whitJr
he was an honored citizen, the" relatives and
friends whom ho ioved, will all seek their
own appropriate expressions of sorrow and!
of reverence. It is peculiarly our proviuce
to speak of him iu bis personal and profts*
atonal connection with ourselves. When the
universally accepted judgment of a whole
community awards to a man tbe meed due to
an unsullied character and an honorable pro
fessional aud social position, it would seem
needle?* to analize it or trace the reasons ,
upon which u is based. When we s»j that
ip his prof-scion Judge Law had no superior-,
and. for a long time past, no equals ; that be
concentrated in himself, Co a remarkable *-
gree, all tue qualities calculatad to iorm a
perfect and successful lawyer; that he stedi
ously improved his natural gifts by unre
mitting labor to th- highest point of culture;
that he was always ready Co make his learn
ing and eloquence available for Che advance
ment of justice, mod all noble end*; that. Lie
wa’i faithful Co every trust reposed in him,
and that his high charnel er and generous
disposition won the affection nnd esteem of
all who became associated with hitri—ye lima
hfa portrait.
It is impossible io® s; painter to catch ari l

the polished surface of:: perfect

us to aity.np! iu individualize and distinguish j
separately, ail the brill'anf qualities tvuich i
made the completeness of the ch tractor LX 1
Whoa it was first suggested to give a Tea
Party in the Academy of Musio, to commem
orate the Hundredth Annivetsarj of the
throwing overboard of the Taxed Tea into
Bost on Harbor, some of our solid men sneered.
This was natural, bocausc a solid man by the
force of circumstances^ is not a Man of Ideas;
lie is rather a Materialise. make money,
n nmn must be anything but on Enthusiast.
To conceive the idea, aud to undertake to
build a railroad across a continent, is grand:
buf we have seen (bat Ames, Cooke and ^cott
failed financially iu their attempts. The
more cool uud unimpitlsive men do not risk
niouey ou such uncertain enterprises.
Merc Materialists saw with surprise a Na
tion wakened by the tound of Sutulcr’s gun.
Patriotism, as it was understood at the South,
led men to arm themselves aud enlist under
the bauuer of their respective Stales. State
allegiance being subordinate iu the mind of
tbe Northerner to his allegiance to the Uni
ted States Government, the North’armed for
tue Union.
The side with the heaviest artillery gained
tbo victory, but there was no disgrace for the
vanquished. Not many years’ shall etapse
before Lee and Stonewall Jackson shall have
as much respect shown to l-heir virtues at the
North as by the South.
It was then the Sentiment of Patriotism,
which controlled millions on either side in
the late war, to offer sacrifice of all they
htf’d most dear on the altar of their country ;
and this sentiment snrvi ved, though * greedy
contractors wrung out bloody sweat an<l
heaviest taxes.
Sentiment has again be<m appealed to by
the Centennial Celebration of the Boston Tea
Party, and the men who sneered are compell
ed to acknowledge that it has n.4 been ap
pealed tp in vaiu. They have spukeu in it*
f.*vqr, and have applauded the labors of our
Patriotic Ladies. D is evident that the gath
ering of many dollars, and the manifestation
of cheerful ga»cty for a few evenings is not
the total result that the Tea Parties have ac„
complfahcd. Other results more important
and far reaching have followed, and will con
tinue to act upon us as a Nation through all
time. Ccnteuuialfam to our mind, mrans not
the mere display of the material results of a
hundred yeurs, however grand such a display
maybe; it fa neither a childish interest in
nor pedantic revival of the events of one hun
dred years ago
The American Centennial appeals to a
higher nud nobler sentiment. For us, it is
Ihe Revival of Nationality,and the creation of
:»n unity of feeling throughout our broad
land. This is Reconstruction on (he most
hopeful basis; it fa-the awakening of a pejple
from the sordid duty of creating material
wealth to their grnuder political duties.
No inherited scheme of Government that
depends for its success upon the faithful per
formance of his politcal duties by the indi
vidual, can succeed, if (he. individual shirks
those duties. Rings of corrupt wen flourish
by the allowance of.the moral element-* of the
community ; aud our better citizens need an
impulse to induce them to take a pride and a
part in their Government.
We, in Pennsylvania, have in voting “for
the Constitution and now our New Consti
tution can be used as a powerful instrument
against our liberties, if the same Patriotism,
which animated our ancestors of J 7G does no:
animate us. He must be as willing as they,
to pledge our fortunes, unr lives, and our sa
cred honor, to the ciiuse of our country.
Their action then has been vividly set be
fore us by these numerous Tea Parties which
have been held in all the State* in the Union,
and the Sentiment of Patriotism has been
quickened by this seemingly insignificant in
strumentality.
The study of historic lore has been prompt
ed by these Centennial celebrations, and in
every village and hamlet, boys and girls, and
even men, who grew up in ignorance of
American hfafory, have been induced to in
vestigate the causes and events, which led np
to and resulted in our revolution. The making
of Tea Cups at Trenton, New Jersey, out of
American clay, and by American fingers,
their snle and dispersion with commemorate
legend*, fa a hopeful agency in the right di
rection It is an objective teaching iu every
household, even though there be but one upon
the parlor mantel to tell the tale. Each p?r*
son who participated in these gay Tea Drink
ings, will carry through this generation a
bright remembrance ot the great orginal
drama they h*!p d to celebrate, and speak of
it io coming generations. Even the mob caps,
the powdered hair, the quilted petticoats and
the trinkets will cry aloud in da,}* to come.
Our newspaper columns teem with full de*
acriplioRS of the day we celebrate, while Ihe
pictorials carry io myriadc* who do not read,
characteristic repreaen tat ions.
It fa a pity that our Centennial Commis
sioners cannot find some way to arouse sen
timent by visual tactual emblems, for while
sentiment will n.:t of itself lay bricks and
trforlar, yet the bricks aud mortar of the Cen
tennial Building-* will not be laid unies-t sen
timed! be aroused. Our ladies, Goo hie**
them, have we said, appealed to «*enti-
and no! in vain.
