The letter <>f <>nr correspondent.
Joseph W. Neal, hilllf elfan ohservai t
intelligent colored ifuui, is worthy of
especial attention. It contains facts
that arc interest nig ns well as grati
fying, and is proof of what every
thoughtful citizen at tile South is
daily discovering—that the negro is
rapidly increasing in wealth and pros
perity. Indeed we think the instance-
of rapid and permanent increase in
wealth among the negroes compare
favorably with ihe progress of the
whites, except perhaps ill the larger
eities, where successful commercial
ventures have been made. These last
are exceptional, blit there is scarcely
a town or city or county that we
know of that does not contain several
instances like those mentioned by our
correspondent. And these instances
are daily on the increase. In Albany
we have quite a number of well-to-
do coloicd people, owning comforta
ble homes, lauds, stocks, many en
gaged in mercantile, manufacturing,
or other business, ami forming a
strong, useful, respectable and re-
speeled element in the community
And it is so in many oilier towns and
cities in Georgia and oilier Southern
States. It is true lliul the majority
of Ihe race is poor, and many of them

influence and call into activity the
dormant energy and economy of the
masses.

TV ESI)A y.
The following is clipped fcoin Ihe
proceedings of the House of Kcprc-
senlntivc* on Tuesday, and explains
the meaning of Mr. Walter's tele
gram :
A bill inlrodiicoil by Mr. Shan
non. of Franklin. to provide for llic
building ofn new capital wnseonsid-
•reil in committee of the whole, with
Mr. Mynalt in the clmir.
Mr. McWhorter olleredn substitute
that the public interest demands tlio
removal of Ihe capital from Atlanta
to Millcilgcville. and that the ques
tion lie at once submitted to the peo
ple for their decision.
Mr. Fort moved that the commit
tee report the bill back with a recom
mendation that it do pass by the sub
stitute.
Mr. I’liillips, of Cobb, snid bo hop
ed the bill would pass. Said be, we
are satisfied that Atlanta U not the
place for the capital. [Applause on
tlio floor.] This is no joke. We are
in earnest, and Ihe people of Geor
gia will endorse our action if we pass
tin- hill this afternoon.
Mr liaiikiu called the previous
question, and said Hull it was strange
tint this question should be sprung
when the people have so lately deter
mined the question. [ Applause.]
The call for the previous question
was not sustained.
Mr. Fort said lie believed the peo
ple did not want (lie capital in At
lanta, and if they had beheld the
scenes that have transpired since this
legislature met, they would never be
satisfied with the legislrlure here.
Mr. Mynatt—Will the gentleman
specify the particular charges against
Atlanta. (Applause.)
The Speaker called the house to
order.
Mr. Turner, of Coweta, made n
str.vng defense of Atlanta in which
he declared that the city was in no
wise responsible for the corruption
in the eapilol. Said he, “Men never
tail to find tiic eapitol. . It would be
as corrupt at Milledgevillc as here."
Mr. l’uinc snid lie was raised
The Gate City Guards of Atlanta
lelt that city on the 5lh instant on
their long anticipated tour through
the North. They will he gone about
three weeks; will visit New York,
Boston. Philadelphia, and other
poinLs of interest, where receptions
and numerous attentions hare been
prepared in their honor.
What an array of names have been
mentioned in connection with the
race for next Governor: Colquitt
Garlrell, Turner, Smith, Bacon, Mc-
Cntchen, Gumming, Blount, Lester,
Lawton, Hammond, Brown, Toombs,
Hardeman, Felton, and a host of oth
ers. Well, if Georgia can’t get a good
one out of this list Georgia's a fail
ure.
The general impression seems to
be that the removal of the capital
idea which was suggested in the
House of Ueprcseiitativcs on Tues
day, was only a little joke. Every
one knows that in order to remove it
will be necessary to amend the con
stitution, and that Me. McWhorter
did not adopt the proper mode for
such action.
We have published neither side of
the Gerrard-Brown-Wallers contro
versy. First, because the space con
sumed by the publication of the
letters would be too great in propor
tion to the importance of the subject.
.Second, because it is unjust at this
hour to task Governor Brown with
the work of “explaining away” his
multitude of sins. Its best to re
member past issues, that such remem
brance may guard us against future
evil; but a public exposition of the
rottenness of the past is not altogeth
er in keeping with good manners.
Hence our silence.
Mr. Garrard having quoted from
editorials in the Constitution of I8C8,
which were scathing and hlistcriii;
attacks upon Governor Brown, Col.
Styles, who was then editor of that
paper, publishes a card in which lie
disclaims endorsement now in time
of peace and quiet, of what lie wrote
of Governor Brown in that bitter po
litical crisis. Knowing Col. Styles
as we do, we do not hesitate to affirm
tliat the very highest motives prompt
ed this explanation. The card
reflects credit upon his heart. It
is a -^iiarc, manly statement, such as
be usually makes when be thinks an
injustice is done bv any ngeney of his
own.
On a motion to withdraw the sub
stitute the yeas were 19 and nays 110.
_ There was here confusion ami gos
sip in nil parts of the house.
Mr. .Strother moved that the time
of the session be extended.
Mr. Turner, of Coweta, raised the
point that the hour of 5 o’clock har
ked, the house stood adjotiru-

Allmuy, Annual 28, 1879-11
The Impression has gone abroad
that the farmer cannot sell his tot-
ton in Albany, that it must bo 8>ld
by a Warehouseman, and the farrier
pay litm n commission for selling.
I bind inyself to buy all the cot
ton brought to me in front of my
store, and pay the
Highest Market Valve,
not only as compared with Albany,
but with any other market in Socth
west Georgia, and the only charges
to tlio planter will he 25 ceiita per
bale lor wcigliiug, tlie farmer hav
ing the privilege of having his cot
ton weighed al either Warehouse
in tlie city There may he a sworn
City Weigher appointed, in which
event cotton will be weighed nl 111
cents per bale.
I furthermore
Guarantee Satisfaction
to all from whom I buy, and will
gludly return to any one Ills cotton,
williiu a reasonable time after the
trade, if he lltinkB lie can do better,
or iu any way becomes dissatisfied
with the sale.
I MEAN BUSINESS!
and only wish a trial to oonvincc
the farmers that iu Albauy they
can sell their cotton themselves, or
have a Warehouseman to sell for
them. Thi? is their right, and I
am determiued they shall enjoy
the pri\ilege.
