On yesterday, tho 27th iuot, Maj. Mc-
Cttlla made oath before Judge Batt that:
“From the best of his knowledge aud
belief, Foster Blodgett is guilty of being
a common cheat and swindler, in this:
“That the wiidJFoster Blodgett, in said
county, on tho day of September,
October, November and December, 1870,
did, m Hnpuvntendont of the Western
and Atlantic Railroad, sign a certain
paper, tho samo being a draft in favor of
‘The Tennessee Car Company' for the
Hum of $32,510,10, and purporting to 1 e
in payment for cars for use of said Wes
tern and Atlantic liailfoad —be knowing,
at the time, said “Tennessee Car Com
pany" had no cxihtance in fact, and that
said cars never were furnished to said
Bo id by said company:
“And the Mid Foster Blodgett, os Super
intendent of said road, did sigu up to E.
A. Paul, of Washington City, a certain
paper, the same being a “passed bill,"
No. 2, dated Juno 16, 1871, for the sum
of $600 00, and on which paper said
amount of money was paid by the W. &
A. R R.— said Blodgett knowing that
said Paul was in no way connected with
said road as an employe, but was an at
tache of the Chronicle—& paper published
at his, the said Paul’s, place of residence,
and said Blodgett knowing that said Paul
hod rendered no service whatever to the
Western and Atlantic Railroad:
“And that the said Blodgett did have a
certain change mode on a certain ‘passed
bill,’ No. —in favor of J. M. & J. C.
Alexander, on which was charged a cer
tain safe, of the value of $175, and dray-
age $1, and have substituted ia lieu
thereof, certai n other articles to the samo
amount, which were never furnished to
said Road, and tho said safe, by said
Blodgett’s order, was sent to the private
residence of him, the suid Blodgett, and
used by him, surreptitiously;
“By and through all of which means,
tho said Western & Atlantic Railroad has
been defrauded, cheatod and swindled
out of the of $33,316.10, by him, the
said Foster Blodgett, contrary to law.
“And deponent makes this affidavit that
a warrant way issue for his arrest.

“Bworn to and subscribed before me
this September 27,1871.
“W. M. Butt, J. P.”
Wbereupou Judgo Butt issued a war
rant for Blodgett’s arrest, which was, late
last evening, placed in tho hands of Con
stable J. R.| Thompson, who proceeded
to the residence of tho accused and
effected his arrest, which wbh done quiet
ly— Capt. Blodgptt surrendering himself
to the same, (which ho has been expecting
for some time post) aud was allowed by
officer Thompson to remain at his house
on his own recognizance, and to appear
before Judge Butt ibis morning nt
o’oloek.
Hero wo have some insight into the
way a man who claims tho once exulted
position of a seat in tho United States
Senate, has been spending the money of
tho down trodden and oppressed tax pay
ers of Georgia.
It is believed that this mythical “Ten
nesson Car Company" fins some connec
tion with the Kimball sleeping car
oompany. What grounds exist for this
Ixdicf, wo do not know.
It seems also that Foster lias been pay
ing Bute Rond money to n man connec
ted with that samo corrupt sheet in
Washington, to which Bullock paid very
large sums of money—some $1*1,000 or
other largo amount—for printing editori
al articles of Bullock’s preparation, when
ho was trying to induco Congress to still
further press tho iron heel of bayonet
despotism into the vitals of our people,
iu order to prolong, and augment his
own power, to be exercised for his own
hellish purposso. Foster, it seems, lias
been using tho peoples’ substance to
grenso tho same maebiuo upon which to
roll iuto a seat iu tho Senate. He is
more likely to represent',the people of Geor
gia iu the. Penitentiary than iu tho Sen
ate: ho is certainly better qualified for,and
more deserving of such honor—but, per
haps, we ought, now that he is uuder ar
rest, and to be tried on these grave
charges, to restrain tho indignation which
rises up iu torrents whenever we think
of how tho people of Georgia have been
robbed by theao vans pyres, clothed with
a little brief authority. Lot the law be
fairly administered.
That oharge of “appropriating" au iron
Hafe to Blodgett’s own use and substitut
ing, on a ''passed bill," other articles
which wore not delivered to the Road, is
a very serious ouo on a small scale, and
if established, will show a depth of
moral depravity and rottenness in his
heart w hich will justify all the harshest
things that havo ever been said of Foster
Blodgett. ^

Laat evening at 4 o’eloek, according to
previous appointment, Foster Blodgett
mat the committee of citizens who have
the Stato Road hooka and papers in
charge, for tho purpose of explaiuiug
something which they were unable to un-
dentaud—one of which was tho matter of
some one hundred and fifty thousand del
lam paid to “The Tennessee Car Com
pany” for oars whieh coaid not he found
on tho State Road, and the name of the
company ia a mythical one, no such »
firm or oompany being iu existence.
Hon. B. H. Hill's “card,” (two col

date for the United State. Senate, ap

so we read it
early train from this unwholesome village,
and being afraid of hotel thieves and con
fidence men, put up for the night among
a pile of lumber, where he could sleep iu
peace, and bid defiance to chinches aud
such vermin, remarking, par parenthesis:
“I care not. Fortune, what you me deny,
You cannot rob me of free nature's grace;
You cannot shut the window* of the eky,
Thro* which Aurora shown her smiling face."
Ho know nlie could not, and conscious
of this, he dropped bin noae on his shirt
bosom and slept. When be awoke in
tho morning to perforin bis ablutions
and burry to lunch, he discovered tliat
he had been spirited away from his rest
ing place of the night before, and was
in a substantial frame building, with his
boots under bis bead for a pillow. He
was brought out, and all his small change
to the amount of $5 and costa abstracted
from bis fob.
ANDERSON IVEY
was clinging to the exploded idea that
a licensed drayman could refuse to haul
a load when solicited. He was convinced
of bis error when requested to deposit a
five dollar note.
H. THU’P
was up for profane and vulgar language
used towards his wife. He called her
heaps of ugly names, to tho annoyance
of his neighbors. It had been a long
time since their honeymoon was over,
and u fuss in that family was nothing
rare. Bhe complained that she could do
nothing with him, and wanted to know
what she must do. Lowry said:
• How shall you manage your husband?"
J will loll you, my dear. If I can.
He ia really a wonderful creature,
That troublesome animal—mau.
Yea, really a wonderful creature.

Hut you'll mood know the secret by learulug

Bhe had no idea ho could learn, but
Lowry sent him to school and made him
pay his tuition in udvauce. Terms $5.
JOHN DANIELS
did not know it was against the city law
to haul sand from tho streets, and was
reprimanded and dissmisserf.
JOHN LAWLESS
hud a good name to characterize his ac
tions ou Thursday. He got drunk, kick
ed up a fuss, cursed some and retired to
his little bed. For lawlessness like unto
such, he contributes $5 aud costs to help
defray die delegates expenses to the
Commercial Convention iu Baltimore.
H. CLASON
camo from the Barracks after some things
and having just been paid off, he inves
ted a few pence in beer. When found
ho was trying to support one corner of
the Kimball House. An officer inform
ed him that his services were needed to
help the city government, aud they took
from him five blazing greenbacks.
JOHN CAMPBELL,
or some other man had laid wide open
the us frontis of Alfred Nigh, which
come nigh creating a first class coroner’s
inquest, but as the onus of tho difficulty
was saddled upon Nigh, Campbell was
dismissed and Nigh fined $10 and costs,
which tho ad interem considered mighty
nigli tho proper punishment.
Thus it is that every littlo helps.
The few dollnrs contributed to tho city

Grant and tho Radical faction in power
at Washington, “to exclude from their
seats successful Democrats, and the sub
stitution of their rejected opponents" in
tho lost election iu Georgia for members
of the Legislature.
What was it that placed him in such
a position, thus so soon to know the se
crets of tho usurpers? Was it his Demo

ties?

In our remarks yesterday morning con
eeruing Major McGolla’s statement, tho
following paragraph occurs :
Utica tho committee has undertaken to make set
tlements, aud bring up italsnoes an far aa possible;
aud Col. Farrow to commence action agalunt default
er* aud delinquent*, McCalla Is the first one, (and the
only one.so far as we know) who has been called upon
for a settlement, and tho only one whom Col. F. ha*
proceeded against.
The word “settlements," iu this para
graph, is improperly used—is an inaccura
cy in fact. The business of tho commit
tee is to take charge of and safely keep
the books and papers, and to make state
ments of accounts and bring up bolauces,
and, ns far tvs possible, show the actual
condition of tho various accounts on the
books, They have uo authority to make
settlements, and are not trying to make
any. That word was used by us iu hasty
writing, at a very late hour iu the night.
When wo wrote that paragraph wo be
lieved the committee had officially asked
McGalla for a statement of his account,
but we fiud we were mistaken, and it af
fords ns sincere pleasure to make this
correction. Wo knew that one or more
of tho members of the committee had re
quested this statement to bo made, and
wo had been informed that they had, its
a committee, formally requested this. Wo
learn authoritatively that iu their official
ca]>acity they havo carefully avoided do
ing this. Wo aro truly glad to know that
this is so, and it affords us very great
pleasure to state tho fact publicly.
We learn tliat the foregoing paragraph
has been construed by some iuto a charge
that tho committee aero co-operating
with OoL Farrow in having McCall* ar-1
rested. This construction is one that no
We will wait for his reasons to be given
before pawing judgment.
W. K. II. Heart ry.
Yesterday we had a very pleasant cull
from Mr. W. E. U. Searcey, Publisher of
the Temperance Watchman, Griffin, Go.
He is in excellent health. As a compli
ment for his services in the Temperance
reform, he is going to bo elected Grand
Worthy Secretary of the Good Templars
of thia State, at the Grand Lodge meet
ing, on Wednesday next
Tile Good Templar*—Correction.
A day or two since we stated that the
meeting of the Good Templars Grand
Lodge would be held in Milledgeville,
on Wednesday next This was error.
That body will meet in Macon on Wed
nesday, of next week.
The Grand Lodge will be clothed in
regalia of Georgia Lodge No. 132 (Mr.
Thrower’s Lodge.)
Yesterday business was moderately ac
tive. The demand for leading necessary
aitides, such as bacon, corn, flower, Ac.,
was good, though nothing like a rush was
made.
Corn remains at a living price, while
bacon is cheap enough, though with an
upward look.
Lord has advanced some, and will
probably go higher. Tho demand for
this article is increasing as the season
draws to a dose.
Flour maintains stiff prices, and is not
likely to fall off. The chances are that
it will advance.
Fish are cheaper than ever, aud the
new stocks now beginning to arrive aro
enormous.
Cheese advanced one cent, a pound
yesterday, It is now quoted at 15@16
cents.
Cotton Market.
Yesterday, more cotton was brought to
this market than on any previous day of
the season. The last week or ten days
have been splendid for oponing, being
dry and warm. It was quoted quiet and
steady at 17 cants.
Litigation.
The Justices’ courts yesterdfy were
literally bare of business. Not even a
civil cnee could be found on somo
dockets.
Old North Carolina.
We mw yesterday an old-fashionod
squirrel rifle, intended for exhibition at
the coming Fair, which was equal in
point of workmanship aud mounting to
any we ever saw'. It was in the posses
sion of two honest-looking “tar lieels,"
and they were exhibiting it with evident
pride to the curious. The gun was splen
did, iulaid with solid silver aud gold, and
was a real beauty. It was manufactured
out and out iu the old North State.
A SF.W KAILHOAD INVRNTtO*.
The Wrstlngltouae Atmosphrrtr llinke.
Accepting an invitation of Governor
Brown, wo had the pleasure Tuesday
afternoon cf accompanying a party ot
gcutlemeu ou a short excursion up the
Western A Atlantic Railroad, to witness
tho test of a new air brake that is being
put upon all the passenger trains on this
road. This appliance is comparatively a
recent invention—so recent indeed that
until now not ono of them has boon in
operation in the South.
To enter iuto au intelligible descrip
tion of this piece of mechanism, would
require more space than we can devote
to it this morning; besides wo doubt tlio
ability of any ono to give the reader a
clear understanding of it without the aid
of the engraver's art. It is sufficient to
say that the machine is intended to sup
ply tho placer of ordinary brakes upon
railroad traius, aud not only that, but
to do the work far better than the old
brakes. Tho advantages of the new
brake arc these: the whole thing is ope
rated by the engineer solely, who, in less
time than ho could whistle “down
brakes’’ can apply tho brako to evory
wheel of every car of his train, no matter
how long it is. The brakes are applied
instantaneously and simultaneously to
every truck of the train, consequently uo
shock is felt by those ou board, the disa
greeable bumping and jumping of the
train being entirely dispensed with. The
whole tliiug is under the control of the
engineer, who is tho first to see danger,
and who alone knows precisely the nature
of the danger to bo avoided. He does
not have to depend npou his whistle to
arouse and excite a squad of sleepy
brakesmen; but the instant he sees dan
ger, he, by the simple turning of a cock,
can apply the brakes to the entire train.
Tho main test on Tuesday yielded
the following result: Tho train, going
thirty-five miles au hour, down a grade
of fifty feet to tho mile, was stopped
within 266 feet of tho point at which the
brake w as applied. The experiment was
most satisfactory to the whole crowd of
spectators, which inoluded quite a num
ber of railroad men.
We understand from Governor Brown
that this broke will be applied at ouce to
all the pAAsenger traius on the State Road.
There is not a particle of doubt that it will
accomplish everything claimed for it.

cept, indorse, stand by, defend aud build upon these measures forever. Those ’ Democrats who give this
pledge of course must “depart'' from tho Talth of their fathers. Som* of them have already gone over
to the enemy 's camp ; and while they and the Radical cohorts which they have joined are eolling out lua-
