Crops.
itie crop prospects, generally, are reported
upon as being very good. The mild atmos
phere of the early days of April, at the West,
enabled farmers to put in their wheat, nearly
all of the other grains, and to do much of
their spring plowing. The rains, that have
been so copious since that time, have well
saturated the soil, which at the expiration of
'tinter was in a dry state. The cool weather
'as prevented the shoots coming forward
prematurely, which would < ause a spindling
groutb, while the seed has germinated finely,
and roots are taking deep and expanding
hold upon the soil. When warm weather
comes on, this will cause the stalks to “strol
,JUI largely, which condition is so necessary
b the insuring of a good crop.

I.ifc Insurance.
The business of life insurance is getting
to be affected by one’s religious or medical
belief. Thus wo have the Asbury Company,
which is managed by and appeals to tbo
Methodist community. We have also a
Homoeopathie Life Society, which insures
only those who believe in small pills and
small doses of physic. Tho F. &A. Masons
are also organized for this purpose ; so also
the Police and Post Office Departments.
Why do not tho Teetotallers start a Life
Insurance Company, to be followed by one
under the direction of the Liquor Dealers’
Society, and so ad infinitum, and then the
statistician could more accurately and
minfftely analyse the comparative merits of
theology and physiology as to the prolon
gation of human life.
flujctl y of tlic lor tv.
It"s no use talking, the “majesty of the
law must be kept intact.” No infractions
of proper interpretations is allowable. Yea.
terday, the baudle of an old bucket came
oil, and bit the bead of a passer by; we
hear of no arrest, nor of holding to bail. It
is whispered that the culprit has been
troubled tor some time with the (w)hooping
cough, and thereby would “waive a trial.”
We again repeat that, under all circum
stances, the “majesty of the law” must be
upheld at all hazards, and to tho last ex
tremity. Offenders, look sharp, or the !Btli
Section will get you, sure.
Duty.
When duty calls no brave man falters.
If in the sick room, at the anvil, in the
hospital of contagion, in the field and the
workshop, the moral bravery of mankind
never gives way. In the vocabulary of
brave men or women there is no such word
as “fail.” At this time the call is made
upon every man and woman to do his and
her duty. ’Tis true, the “flesh, the world
and the church,” are all combined against
us—for inasmuch as the l’iq>vißees are
putting on new airs in every department of
the business of life, and the “jaybirds” and
other “bipeds” are pecking away at a great
rate at the heels of the true men and women
of Georgia, it behooves us to “possess our
souls in patience,” and always remember
that “Georgia expects every man to do liis
duty,” never forgetting for a moment the
motto “duett amor patrie ,” that is “tbo love
of my country leads me.”
Proscription,
In a conversation, yesterday, with a good
friend of ours, who is a Democrat in politics,
we were agreeably surprised to find liis
strong, common sense arose so superior to
others of his party; that lie boldly an
nounced the doctrine, “that so far as lie
was concerned, his friends -his life-time
friends—were his friends still,” and he
would sec some people “where Christians
do not go before lie would allow any man
to dictate to him who he should select as
associates, or who he should recognize as
gentlemen.” This sentiment has the ling
ol true metal—there’s no alloy in it. It is
the emanation from a true gentleman (which
ho is in every respect), and we are happy to
record the fact. If any sore lo ad Democrat
wants to know who he is, all lie has to do is
to call on “us,” ami if we think it will
enlighten his dull brain, or impress his
weak intellect with a streak ol “horse
sense, ’ we will take great pleasure in per
forming thc operation of trepanning his
skull—for above all other operations per
formed in political surgery, we think this is
of exceedingly great importance just at. this
time. So far as wo aro individually con
cerned, we do not care on old fash
ioned “thrip” about this matter of ostia"
cism, etc., for we have in our possession
ample written testimony of the great hunger
of Democrats for a share in the offices of
the State—asking our good offices to aid
them to attain their objects ; and, ol course,
we cannot find it in our heart to refuse.
Would you, reader ?
Appointment*.
Wo aro satisfied, from our knowledge of
thc well known character of Governor
Bullock, that with his extreme caution and
experience with men of all kinds, he teill
not make any appointments to any office
except upon the grounds of fitness, intelli
gence, and good character of thc appointee.
Governor 15. is not governed by any other
motive than that o! doing his duty to thc
State over whose dcslinics ho has been
called to preside for the next four years
and lory editors aro only “gnawing at a
file” with their abuse of him, when they or
their followers think otherwise. They do
not now show, nor have they shown, any
interest in the welfare, peace and prosperity
of the body politic known us the State of
Georgia, and therefore can have not even a
remote interest in tho government of the
State. *
Meiarw,
Aud now we ult Congress to meet the
returning prod ignis in » generous, trustful,
conciliatory spirit Each returning State
sends up a list of citizen* whoso political
disabilities it desires to have removed.
Instead of passing special bills, we entreat
tho Republican minority to frame and enact
one goueral, comprehensive measure which
shall fully restore to citizenship and all its
rights every person now disfranchised who
has supported the policy of Congrcps, or
who will tako an oath, on or before tho 4th
day of July next, that he will henoeforth
affirm and uphold the civil and political
equality of all citizens, whether made such
by birth or by naturalization. —New York
Tribune.
Wo cannot go so far. We know men who
would take the oath without a wry face,
that wo would not trust as far as wo could
“ throw a yearling calf by the tail”—and
just such men will bo the first applicants.
Thcro aro others, again, that should be
disfranchised until tbo “crack of doom,’
even if they took a hundred oaths, ou a
stack of Bibles as high as Chimborazs. To
be true to ouftelves, us Republicans, for the
evil done us, and the unrepentant ones in
this State, not to say the whole Soutb (
amongst us, we say emphatically—“ Let
them be forever deterred from either voting
or holding office.”

Congressional.
Washington, May 15.— Senate —No ses
sion.
House —The letters of the Missouri Con
gressional delegation, to Senator Henderson,
was up us a question of privilege. Several
Missouri Representatives said the. objection
able letter was written, and the interview
obtained at the instance of Henderson. Con
siderable excitement ensued, but the Speaker
deciding ’twas not a privileged question, and
several members objecting to its present
consideration, the House proceeded with its
regular order.
Wilson was proceeding lo explain a pri
vate bill when Underwood, who was author
of a resolution censuring the Missouri dele
gation, desired to know what the gentleman
from Missouri, Mr. Pile, who was near him,
meant, by distorting his face. He was not
accustomed to being talked to in grimaces
and cabalistic signs.
The Speaker rapped the House to order,
and asked for what purpose the gentleman
from Pennsylvania rose ; if it was a question
of order the gentleman from lowa could be
taken off the floor, but not otherwise.
Woodward desired lo know what the signs
and facial contortions of the gentleman
from Wisconsin, Mr. Pile, meant. The
manner in which they were made was more
befitting the Five Points than this Hall.
The Speaker reminded Mr. Woodward
that the last remark was not in order.
Woodward, resuming, said that the gen
tleman had come toward him making
cabalistic signs of this style—[putting his
thumb toward his nose and gyrating his
fingers]—and lie could not understand that
language. -
Pile disclaimed any intention of insult.
Woodward said as the gentleman belonged
to the party that claimed to possess all the
morality of the country | cries of “order” on
the Republican side] he wanted to know
what the signs meant.
Myers of Pensylvania, desired to know if
the remarks of his colleague would go in
the Globe, uttered as they were—out of
order.
Tho Speaker said the gentleman had
risen to a question of order, and his remarks
would go in the Globe.
Private bills were resumed, and the House
adjourned.
Wash ngton Items.
Washington, May 15—Representative
Randall and Governor A. J. Hamilton, of
Texas, had a recountre. Hamilton struck
Randall over the head with a cane. The
parties wcie immediately separated. Further
proceedings aro apprehended.
The sick Senators are improving.
The managers don’t contemplate present
ing new arlicles.
The New Hampshire Republican caucus
nominated Buckingham.
No now impeachment developments.
Ultimate acquittal seems conceded today.
Many private dispatches to uncommitted
Senators have boon received front home
sources, urging them to act according to
their consciences, and assuring them that
the impeachment furor is artificial.
Replying to the Missouri delegation,
Senator Henderson nppears to have said
that conviction would have failed without
and could not have been secured with his
vole. In his opinion the second article
would have been defeated by two, and the
eleventh by four votes.
Impeachment managers appear to have
abandoned yesterday’s project, whatever
that may have been. They had no meeting
to day.
A vote to morrow is considered improba
ble.
Howard and Conkling aro both confined
to bed.
Grimes is better, and Morton is on the
street.
The Star says there is a lull in the im
peachment excitement, partly from tho
impression that the question will not be
taken lo morrow.
Some of tho managers aro in favor of
postponement, while others, it is known, aro
in favor of disposing at once and for ever
a question that is now only serving to
weaken and distract tho Republican parly,
Some leading Republicans believe that it
will be policy to get wholly rid of tho
iinpeaebmen! matter ns a loature cf tho
coming Presidential canvass, and to movo
on to fresh fields and pastures, and where
all training under tho Republican standard
can rally on common issues.
