James M. Smith, of Muscogee, Nominated by Are lama/ion. We are specially gratified to announce, says the Macon Telegraph, to announce | aad a half inches thick, seven fee' long; that the above named gentleman, now holes for rails not bored, but cut through Speaker of the House of Repjesenta-! with a Yankee‘‘Postaxe having a long, tives of the Georgia Legislature, was narrow blade, six inches by two and a nominated for Governor, by acclamation, j half inches, and ‘‘post benes by the Democratic Convention that rnet at Atlanta, recently.

But on one point there is a better way; better for one special reason, besides others, viz : it is a gentle compromise with pop ular habits at.d prejudices, and is at once so excellent and so cheap, compared with present, fence?, either lawful or un lawful, as to insure great public satislacr »nn. piir.ciple is that of Kcn'ucky, a stock State, and of all old States; and is just this : 1. Make owners keep hogs at home, on their own land in close fences; and, 2. Feuce big stock, mules, cows, Sec , either in or out, as owners choose, by a post and three or four radfence. 1 use a post and three rail feuce around my inside pastures; “bull strong and mute high,” and never had my stock so sale. Posts split out like rails, with broad faces, five inches wide and two In our judgment, says tho Telegraph, in the ground, dug by “Leeds' Digger” in two minutes or less. This fence takes but 100 rails to 100 and we fully eudorsc the sentiment, the : yards—1700 rails to a mile line—<,040 Convention has done an emphatically j rails to a square mile of G4G acres. If good day’s work in this nomination. Mr. j rails cost but one dollar per hundred, Smith is eminently honest, capable, and j then you can fence GlO acres with sev- faithful, and will redeem Georgia as far I enty dollars and forty cents for rails ; as in his power lies, by a wise and 1 the posts, a trifle, to bo added, wholesome administration. He will see that no hurt comes to die honor or wel fare of the Commonwealth, and nobly il- lastrate both by the practice of all those virtues that in the olden days we were wmttosee in the men who filled the Executive chair. These things we con- fiientiy predict of and for him. Now, let the Democrats of Georgia put him in by a vote that shall show how enthusiastically they approve the wisdom of the Convention’s choice, and wm. McKinley. The Augusta Constitutionalist, of Fri day, says : The Mayor, with the approve al of the Finance Committee, sold on Wednesday the 5.000 shares of stock owned by the city in the Macon & Au- gusta Railroad, to the South Carolina Railroad Company, at 40 cents on the dollar. The amount realized by the sale, then, is $200,000, for which the city is to take the notes of the South Garoli- na Railroad Company, in such amounts, with 7 per cent, interest from date, and , . , . . . ! payoblo at such times as will be deemed their high appreciation of the character ^ the Mayor and FiuanCe Cowmit- of the leader they have chosen. Changes in the Cabinet.—The New York Sun reports that Morton is shortly to succeed Fish, as Secretary of State. Judge Pierrepont will tako the place of the chivalric Akermau, who, we trust, will be sent on a special mission to the Fiji Islands. Will Not Run a Candidate. We copy the following from the At-, lanta Sun. of yesterday : “After cuucussing lor three days and two nights the Republicans have come to the conclusion not to have auy candi- didate for Governor, and to let the elec tion go by default. As we staled in our issue of Thursday morning, the Lad ing members of the party v/ere divided in their couusels on Wednesday—some siding with Couley, and determining not to recognize the election—others believ ing a nomination should be made aud the election vigorously tested. Wheth er they have all finally sided with Con ley or nor, ws do not know. What took place in their counsels we do not know —they are not communicative. We are onl) authorized to say that will place no candidate in the field. At one time it was believed Col. James Atkin- would be brought out by them, aud at one time he really was nominated ; but this nomination was reconsideieb - a subsequent consultation and the ruination withdrawn.*' We hoped they would make tho race We wanted one more chauce at them in order to bury the stiukiDg carcass ol Radicalism so deep that not even Graul’s biyouets could resurrect it. But whether they take part in the e« Ia uou or not let the Democrats of Geot- gia turn out m their might, and put their man iu by the biggest vote polled since the war. It is charged by the Radicals that the people don’t waut an election. Let the people reply in tones that will convince even the most skep tical among these croakers. Let them lay aride all other busiues9 ou next Tuesday week, the 19 day of this month of December, aud go to the polls iu a body. Our candidate deserves, and the crisis demands an unmistakable expres sion of the popular will. Don’t stay away because the beaten, frazzled-out cohorts ol Radicalism will not be there to oppose you. If you fail to vote, they will point to the result and claim that they were right, and that you did not want an election. It Grant interferes to keep Conley in office, on« of the grounds will be—if you stay away from the polls—that you did not desire a change, and a light vote wiil be taken as evi dence that such was the case. Demo crats of Georgia—rally to the old flag aud its bearer just as though the enemy confronted you in heavy force. That’s your duty, as well as your safety.— Tel egraph. A Florida letter says : “The hand of disease has pressed heavily upon all por tions of Florida during the fall months. Bilious fevers and congestive chills have prevailed to an unusual extent, and at Gainesville, Alachua county, and at oth- tee, to meet the outlay required for en larging the canal. A Singular Case.—Mr. Eli Hemp- sted, formerly of New Haven, but re cently of Chenango Forks, N. Y„ died at his father’s residence, in New' Haven, on the 20ih instant, from a most singu lar cause. Some years ago he was at tacked with insanity, and was sent to the Iusaue retreat at Hartford. While there he pushed a watch key up bis nose, and after his recovery he told bi3 physi cian what he had done. An effort was made to get it out, without success.— He left the Retreat, and nothing further was done to remove the article, though he occasionally spoke of feeling it. In a year or two he was attacked with a sharp pain in the lower part of the right lung. He suffered from it for some time, when it passed away, and for two years he enjoyed good health. A lew weeks ago he came to New Ha ven with an invoice of produce, and while engaged in lifting barrels was again attacked with pain and bleeding trom the lungs. He was taken to his father’s house, where iu a few days he died. His case was so singular that his physicians made a post mortem examina tion, when they found the key imbedded in the lower part ol the lung, aud sur rounded by a lump in a state of mortifi cation. The key had dropped out of the nose through the windpipe into the lung, and had remained there over two j cars.—Notwich (Conn ) Advertiser. The Little Hyena Tn Bad Odor.— The Herald’s special Washington cor respondent, under date of Monday, writes as follows : The rumors that have recently been circulating as to a personal disagreement in the Cabinet, have finally settled upon Attorney General Akerman as the offen sive Minister, It is charged that the present lie id of the J udicial Department is quite self-opinionated, tenacious of his own views, ami rather disagreeable in considering those of others. Such traits have mado him so uncomfortable a colleague that his room is considered more preferable than his company. The special impu.se to this expected change is, however, declared to be a distinct difference of opinion on the Ku-Klux policy, Mr Akermau designing that it shall be made more offensive than at prescut, an opinion with which the Pres ident does not seem to agree. Who Mr. Akeruian’s successor is to be is not known, aud the change will not be made till after the first report of the Depart ment of Justice is sent to Congress. Trial of Rev. J. Pierce.—The pub - j lie probably beats in inind the gross j scandal that some months ago was cir culated through the papers, with which the names of Rev. J. L. and a lady f:om Cartersville were unenviably connected. The scandal was eo great, and bore so heavily upon not only the ministerial but the moral character of Mr. Pierce, that it became necessary for the Confer ence, to which he belonge to give the matter a most inquisitorial examination. When Conference met in Athens last week one of tbe first acts of the body was to raise a committee for the investi gation of the matter. The committee was composed of the following ministers : Arminius Wright, chairman ; H. H. Parks. L. J. Davies. F A. Kimball, A G. Haygood, A. M. Thigpen, G. Y. Smith, J. H Grogan, J. M. Dickey, M. Calloway, D. J Mvrick, J. Lewis, Jr., P. A. Heard, W. P. Fort. Before this tribunal the Rev. J. L. Pierce was brought for an examination of the charges against him. llis trial occupied five entire days—three sittings of the committee being held each day. The testimony was taken in writing, and covered 300 pages of cap paper. Eve ery witness was subjected to tho most thorough and rigid examination. Wit nesses pro and con were examined With like rigor. There was no partiality— no discrimination—no favors shown, but an obvious determination to ariive at the exact truth in the case. What points were divulged by the testimony it is not. necessary to state It is sufficient for the public to know that after a most patient and exhaustive hearing, the judgment of the committee was that Mr. Pierce was not guilty of the charges that had been made against him. The husband of the lady involved, who was present during t'nc examination, at its close said Mr. Pierce had had a fair aud impartial trial. The Sumpter Republican has infor mation that acting Gov. Couley has pardoned G. F. Page, the Radical legis lator convicted of voluntary manslaught er, before his application for a new trial has been decided. This is following in the footsteps of Bullock with nearly equal paces, and is directly at variance with Conley’s promise iu his message.— Columbus Enquirer. During the late conflagration in Chi cago two fire engines were sent from Bloomington, Illinois. In two hours and forty minutes from the time they started in a special train, over tho Chicago, Alton and St. Louis Railroad, they were throw ing water ou tbe fire. The train made the run, one hundred and twenty-six miles, in two hours'and ten minutes, and the run from Bloomington to Joilet, eighty-nine miles, was made in eighty uinutes. Senator Norwood’s Chances.—The Washington Republican, (Grant’s Or- gau) of Tuesday, says : Th» credentials of Thomas M. Nor wood, claiming a seat in the Senate, were presented in the Senate yesterday by Senator Thurman, and laid ou the table. There is m3 prospect of his be ing admitted, as it is generally under stood that the vacant seat in the Senate from Georgia will be given to the Hon Foster Blodgett, who has, by the great revolutionary action of the Georgia Leg islature, gained strength in the Senate, and will undoubtedly, be admitted. This same Republican six weeks ago, said that Blodgett’s proper place was in the Peuitentiary aud not iu the Uuited States Senate. Who will deny the right of the Senate to fix its own level and choose its own compauy.—Macon Ttltgravh. Gaorgia Legislature. We find but little in the proceedings j > f the last few days that will iuterest our ; readers. We jiubiish the most impor- tant : NEW m RTISEMENTS- Central Railroad Currency.—The Central Railroad and Banking Company has recently issued bills-of various de nominations, w’hich are received by the road for passenger fares. The circula tion of these bills will prove very benefi cial just now. The total amount of bills issued, we learn, is 840,000. We sug gest that the road issue a like amount good for freight over their line. They would be very convenient in tnese times. Tbe nofes are very neatly gotten up, aud resemble iu niauy respects, the old issue of bills by the Central Railroad Bank.—Savannah News. Poor System of Economy.—When many people find retrenchment neces sary they commence by refusing to pay the preacher and their next step is to stop tbeir paper. This is economy false ly so-called. To live long and prosper et points, many have been swept away people must support tho preacher and by yellow fever. Even now, near Cedar j sustain their local papers. At an Indiana breakfast table a few days ago, a traveler from the East hand ed to one of his fellow-travelers a plate of sausages, whereupon the question was asked, “Is it sale 1” To which it wa3 re plied, “This is a prolific hog country, and it is safe to eat sausages wherever hog is cheaper than dog." SENATE. Thursday, December, 7.1871. In tho Senate, on Thursday last, Mr. Browu moved to reconsider the pas sage of the bill to amend section 4420 of the'Code, so as to make the purchase of stolen produce a misdemeanor, aud the purchase of product* between sunset and sunrise, primes facie evidence of tbe same. Mr Matthews forcibly opposed the motion, and alluded to various instances where the want of such provision bad worked serious injury. He was "surpris ed to learn that any district in North Georgia did not need such a la'T; but Southwest Georgia undoubtedly does, for he believed that section loses more annually the want of such a law than the annual production of North Georgia. Mr. Burns move to lay the motion to reconsider on the table. Carried. Tbe bill to repeal the act organizing the District Court, which was vetoed by the Governor ad intuitu, and the veto message returned with the same, were taken up. The message placed the veto upon the economy, speed and other advantages of the District Court, a9 now constituted. The vote on the hill stood, ayes 33, nays 8 ; so the bill was passed. A bill to repeal an act to deolare the poll tax for the years 1S68, ’69 and ’70 uncollected, unconstitutional, and to pre vent the collection cf the same—vetoed by the Executive, and tho veto message accompanying the same was taken up. Senator Campbell spoke at length a- gainst the bill. On the passage of the bill the rote stood—ayes 27, na}8 13; so the bill passed. Mr. Nichols offered a resolution pro viding for the appointment of a joint committee of five trom the General As sembly to visit the penitentiary and the several places where the convicts are employed, and report upon the manner of their treatment and all other matters connected therewith. Also, to report upou what interest, if any, Rufus B Bul lock has in the contract under which the convicts were farmed out. Also, to au dit all claims against the penitentiary. Also, to ioquire what disposition was made of the appropriation of $150,000 to the penitentiary Made in March, ’69, and called the previous questiou on it* adoption. The resolution was adopted by ayes 25, nays 15. House—Mr. Pierce moved to suspend the rules to take up a Senate resolution directing the Attorney General to dis miss certain suits against the Treasurer, and declaring that the Treasurer shall not be held liable for interest on depos its in the Treasury. Mr Pierce said that this was due to the faithfulness of the Treasurer who hail done so much toward guarding the public funds. Tho motion to suspend prevailed and the resolution was unanimously adop ted. On motion, the House went into a Committee of the Whole on the Appro priation bill when Mr. W. D. Anderson moved to tako up tlie Governor’s veto of the trill to reduce the per diem of of ficers and members of the General As sembly, The message was read. The reasons assigned for tbe veto aie that the bill is retioactive and unconstitutional, and that the reduction of only $2, leaving the mileage as it was before, was not a sufficient reduction to meet the demanda of the people. Mr. W. D. Anderson moved to pass the bill over the veto. Mr. Edwards called the previous question, which was sustained. The yeas and nays were called with the following result: Yeas 118 ; nays 31.

The object of this act is to di-cov er bow maDy, il any, illegal bonds have been put upon tbe uiaiket, and to ascer tain precisely the amount of the bon led indebtedness of tho Stale. We hear some complaint that tbe act is a dangerous one, aud is likely to dam age tbe State’s credit. We aie satisfied however, that the motives of those who voted Dr the bill were honest, and that the only object is to protect Georgia from fraudulent bonds, which are believ ed to have been issued. We do not think there is a mau in either house who would vote fo defraud a single creditor of the State out of one dime. It is nec essary to do something to ascertain what the State really owes, and the Assembly had done what it deemed wisest and best.
