oourts, prepared by 8. 0. McDaniel; car
ried.
The resolution was taken up and con
ourred in.
Mr. Nicholls offered a resolution that
a committee of two from the Senate and
three from the House be appointed to
inquire into the actual cost of the public

Beotion 1088 of the Code as to them shall
seem best for the State and the Pnblie
Printer; adopted.

for the collection of taxes for the present
year until the 25th of Deoember, as a
substitute adopted by the Senate extend
ing the time sixty days was taken np.

inately the resolution.

ing in an economical manner and avoids
the disposition of the same for partisan
purposes.
Mr. Simmons favored the resolution.
Mr. WftT.T.nnnN moved to Btrike out the
portion of the rasolutioax«Uting to the

ing should be first heard.

2 oonld not bo cliaugtt after the Public

mitteee on Printing are better oaquainted
with the matter than any special commit-
tee, and he was opposed to the Senate
Resolution providing for the appoint
ment of a special committee.
Mr. Bacon waa in favor of agreeing to
the Senate' Resolution, rather than get
into a wrangle with the Senate.
Mr. Scott agreed with Mr. McMillan,
and could see no use in multiplying com
mittees. He thought that the action of
the Senate reflects on the Committees
already appointed, and to whom this
House had referred the matter by reso
lution.
Mr. Simmons, of Gwinnett, favored
the view taken by Mr. Baoon, and thought
that there were some practical printers
who would be better judges of tho rates
to be paid than the standing Committees
i Printing.

called, with the following result—yeas,

after the election, and, therefore, not for

oity than in the Federal Government.
If the Reformers want to continue their
good work, let them now organize
against the new “Oustom Honse rings,”
the old “cotton rings,” which oost the
Government $130,000,000, tho “whisky
rings,” the “sandstone jobbing rings” at
Washington, and political rin(ja gener
ally. It would be a email gain to the
murals anil politics of the country to kill
off tbe lesser, nnd leave the greater rings
in power. We need ut once a reform in
our taxes, in onr tariff, in onr internal
bureaus, and, most of all, in tho Federal
offioers. For every Hodge in prison,
tlieru are twenty Hodges out of prison,
and what is more, the Preeident and his
advisers, if not stone blind, know it.
Special Notices.
To (Ac E>litor a/the Atlanta Smn: As your paper has
always advocated Justice, sud exposed cruelty sud
wrong, I wish to inform you of my sad experience
while incarcerated in the calaboose during the night
of Novoniber 10th. It was s bitter cold night, as all
kuow. I was not imprisoned fer druukenneas, but
for this reason, vis: Mr. 0. F. Denson had misrep
resented me before the Council, and when he
me outside ot the Council Chamber. 1 de
nounced him for bis statements. He immediately
ordered me to be arrested upon the charge of draw
ing a knife ou him, which I did not do. The Mar
shal ordered tha polioe to arrest me and carry me to
the calabooee. Accordingly, one seised my right,
the other iny left hand, and marched me off. Upon
arriving at tho ealabooee, 1 waa searched, and no
weapon of any description was found upon me. My
attorney, F. P. Westmoreland, tsq., offered to pro-
36,000 bail, If necessary, but, for some un
known reason, I was refused bail 1 then begged to
be put iu a cell that was not crowded, but they forced
m« into a cell eight feet square, hcvlug ten prison-
nd a water snd filth bucket in it You cannot
form any idea of the horrors of that night in such a
i snd in such company I Tbe fioor was covered
with filth. How could it be otherwise f There was
light sod some of the men were drunk, and
cared not what they did. I was the last one put in,
•nd all the room I had was to either sit or stand over
the water bucket I was thinly dressed snd begged
the keeper to plesso let me have a blanket sa I was
tost chilled to death. He answered, "Come out
and get one, G—d d—n you, or frees*.” There 1 sat
all that long, long, cold night, having no room to
walk or lie down, aod without any eovering. During
the night my feet. legs, hands, snd face swelled
up from the cold. Tbe stench from the filth, tobeo-
■moke, snd drunken breaths of so many men.
de me very, very riek. I thought I should die
before morning. Oh. tha horror* of that long, long
mber night I They are Indelibly impresssd up-
on my memory. Such cruelty is a disgrace to e
Christian city.
The adjoining cell had batons occupant I begged
to be place . there, but for some causa thsy refused
to grant my request, as If they dsrirsd to inflict ea
uch misery as possible upon me; and only too
well they succeeded. I contracted • severe oold from
the exposure, and have been under the doctor** cam
sine*. I am afraid that l ehall have a severe
feme before I recover from its effects. I was libera
ted at 10 o'clock the next mo ruing by the Marshal,
and ha than ordered a charge to be preferred against
_ which I waa treated, it would seem that the
police consider it tlielr privilege or duty to inflict all
