The Amcricna Uailroad Meeting
We referred last week to a railroad
meeting in Amcricus to take into con
sideration the feasibility of building
i branch line from that town to Isa-
liella station, to connect at that point
with the Brunswick A Albany Hail-
road. ’ The meeting, as held, was
called to order by the Mayor. A. S.
Cults, Esq., ('apt. .T. F. Pickett acting
as Secretary. Col. Burke staled that
the “firm of A. C. Bell A Co. had been
in correspondence with the railroad
from Albany to Brunswick, and they
liad stated if Amcricus desired to
connect by rail with said road, it
would be agreeable to the company
to build the road.” On motion, a
committee of seven was appointed to
continue the correspondence. A reso
lution was offered anil passed, ex
presssing anxiety to have the connec
tion made, when the meeting ad

Savannah Sews: Among the im
portant bills pending in the Scntto
is Mr. Clarkson Potter's bill from the
House, transferring to tlie Court of
Claims the vast number of claims
which burden the attention of Con
gress every session. If this becomes
a law it will relieve Congressmen of
quite one-half of their labor, and
thereby shorten the session, jfft
Court of Claims has run quite to' the
end of its docket, and could. ..easily,
dispose of the new class of claims
which it is proposed to put before it
with justice to the claimant and to the
government. The Republican* how
ever, are anxious to continue Che eftt-s
paiga cry of “rebel claims” for lSbOj
and intend, it is said, to oppoye pk:
passage of Mr. Potter's bill, although
it has nothing to do with rebel claims.

A Tribute to the Constitutional
Convention.
In the Senate, several days ago,
Hon. C. J. Wellborn, of the 40th dis
trict, in the discussion of the usury
bill, paid the following tribute to the
Constitutional Convention:
Delicacy forbids that 1 should
pegk of the wisdom and stateman-
-hip of the late Constitutional Con
vention. This much, however, I may
lie permitted to say without egotism.
It was patriotic; it was in sympa
thy! with the people;it came directly
iVoro the people; it was Anglo-Saxon
in blood; it was composed almost ex-
■lusively of native-born Georgians;
it meant well towards its whole con-
■titnency of every class and character.
It would not lie saying too much to
ny that it loved Georgia well, and
that it labored earnestly, honestly t.nd
-onlinuously, to engraft in the funda
mental law which it gave to the conn-
try as a Constitution, truths and priu-
-iplea upon which as foundation
stones the people through their chos
en representatives might build a su
perstructure of law which will pro
tect their rights and interest and pro
mote their happiness and prosperity,
la order that this ranch desired re-
.ult may follow, it is necessary that
wc should in our legislative policy
adhere to the spirit of the instrument
thus framed.

from the Tenth Dist rict.
The followingdrscrvnl compliment
is from “Dawson,” in the Amcricus
lleputiliean:
This Senator is. always in his seat
and is watchful of the interests of bis

ber of the Senate. He did not aspire
to the place of Senator, as wc are in
formed, but in consideration of the
fact that be was amongst others first
to deteal Hadimlism in bis county wc
think Ids people did right in electing
him. lie was elected by a majority
of 1,500 votes, and we think bis con
stituents will re-elect him to the Sen

He is a very quiet member, and nt
all times ready to advocate all meas

AMI TIIKFlIESIDENcr UNUKII REVIEW.
Senator Lamar, of Mississippi, was
in tlie city the other day en route
from his home to Washington. An
/■inquirer reporter met the Senator in
I In- afternoon and interviewed him
mi a few of tlie questions of the hour.
“Ilotv were tlie elections in the
South i”
••In my State they were as peacea
ble us any election in the world could
possibly be. Not a human being was
molested or made afraid. As a gen
eral thing, in consequence of the fe
ver, the people did not largely turn
out 4o_tlie election. There Jwas hut
little organization of the Democratic
party in the State, or rather not at all.
The "opposition was much better or
ganized in tlie First and Second dis
trict* Ilian we were. Tlie candidates
were unable to make a public canvass,
and tlie people went to the polls of
their own motion.”
••Did the Greenback party show
■uucli strength ?”
“1 think not."
••Did not Davis, in the Second dis
trict, receive a heavy vote ?”
••General Davis is much stronger in
ihat District than the Greenback par
ly. tie is a popular and able man,
and received a large vote on account
of his popularity.”
••What are the prospects of the
Greenback party in the South?”
“Well, ns to that, so long ns the
right of the people of the South to
self-government is made an issue in
national polities, the people of the
South will not. and. in my opinion
ought not, to allow any question as to
currency to divide them. The South
is more solid in favor of self-preser
vation than divided us to national
policies.”
“How did the Republicans vote in
Mississippi ?”
“Iu my district they voted solid for
the Greenliaekers’candidates, officials
and all.”
••Do you mean that that the Federal
officeis voted that way?”
“I do.”
“Will the South he likely to ask a
representative ou the National Demo
cratic ticket in 1880?”
1 do not think the Southern people
cherish any aspirations for the con
trol of the Federal Government or its
honors of patronage. They will sup
port a ticket without a Southern man
upon it just as cheerfully as with one.
it will depend entirely upon what
lie party deems best to do iu order

An Item for the Ladies’—Huts.
A New York correspondent, of the
19tli lost says:
The very latest style are called “beef
eaters” nod are just out to-dav for
the first time; they are a high iirond
crown and very narrow brim, irim
med witii cords and handsome
plumes. They are remarkably dis
tingue, and our fashionable ladies are
charmed witii them as they have sent
the round cottage brim quite in the
background. Itomul Derby hats for
young ladies are more used because
they have a dashing style, coupled
with extreme neatness from their
plain trimming of three rows of nar
row ribbon usually the same shade.—
A cottage peak lint is also shown for
young ladies. These are trimmed in
scarfs and barge colored plumes.—
Evening hats are simply large hows
of satin nr velvet pinned on tlie ex
treme top of the head with lace or il
lusion strings tied under the chin.—
One imported lint of a light cuir col
or, or corded silk and “becf-catcr"
shade, was trimmed with three su
perb feathers, three-toned dark (nl
most black) brown, shaded to n'light
fatvn. A verv few evening hats are
shown, in white felt, but tlie newest
style arc the bows and lace ties.—
Children's lints are uniformly
tlie very light pearl felt, trimmed in
same of lighter shade ot satin.
Senator Voorliees (Deni., Ind.) iu
an interview, states that one of Ids
first acts upon the reassembling of
Congress will be a movement to
make the trade dollar a legal tender.
‘This,’’ said he, “will add at once
something over twenty million dot
lnrs to the circulation.”
<• * Georgia’s Progress.
!••
Taking into consideration the hard
ness of tlie times, Georgia seems to lie
getting along very well. To tie sure
•here is a decrease in the grand tax
lint of the,State; last year the report
ed total was t23a.fio9.uiiO, or |10,19l,-
920 less than 1876, hut this is explain
ed by the shrinkage of values. In
live stock, Georgia was |97o,fiOfi rich
er Iu 1877 than in 1378; in farming
qid mechanical tools, $438,851; and
iu bonds anil storks, tl,454,062. Pop
ulation has slightly increased, in spite
of the steady drain of the Texan end
gration fever; whereas in I87fi then
wore in the Bute 204,607 men who
paid poll Ux, last year there were
207,815. The sum invested in cotton
manufactories in 1877 was 12,739,200;
the school fund was $150,225. The
State tax was 50 rents on $100, and
tin* average county rate about the
*apie. Tim colored people of the
State returned taxable property
reaching an aggregate value of $5,
430,844.
The Commissioner of Agrirultur
strikes tlie keynote when lie says:
“The education, both of farmer
sons and daughters, must he relied
upon as the lever for the elevation of
great agricultural masses. They must
read more, think more and bring
more knowledge to hear upon their
daily avocation. Not only is agricul
ture tlie most productive resource of
the Bute hut it affords a wider field
for tlie exercise of executive ability
and the application of knowledge
than any *4fcrr avocation pursued by
man.”
