DAILY ft (anta WEEKLY * Canto “Th« Comptroller UeorraUbip.” Coder thui bead, pa And in the Mil ledgerilUfoW Union, of the 20th in- etant, an article which ao fully corree pond, with our own riawa upon the ,nl>- joet, that we rapnbliah it entire. Tba office of Comptroller General la, indeed, one el the moat important In the State. It it one in which tire tax payers have more direct interest than in any other, Withont any disparagement to others, we hare no heaitaney in eaying that we beliere that Colonel Thweatt has no su perior in the State, in all thooo tjualiftoa- tiona which eminently fit hits for taking charge of this Department of the Public internets. Others may or might dis charge the duties of this office satisfacto rily—none can do It more so than ho lias done. We indulge in no exaggerated ex- 'prosalon of opinion in giving it us our belief that OoL Thweatt, by his vigilance, watchfulness, fidelity and psrfeot acquain tance with the business of tba office, if elected, will save to the treasury annually, by stopping leakage, alone, of various sorts, not leas than five times bis salary. No one at all aoqnainted with bis admin istration of Uro offloe for tbo eight yeora be bold it, will question the correctness of this opinion. The Senate, near the close of the late session of the Legislature, adopted tba most .dmirobjqreport of the Committee upon tbeState of the Republic, which, ufter speaking, among other things, of the mismongament of onr financial af fairs within the last few jean, concluded with this, among other resolutions: '•Haaolved S. That in (be opinion of • bis body, our only sore plan of restoring peace and order in this State is to place m petitions of honor and trust, men of integrity, nldltty and courage, and those IH)sses«itig the confidence of the isroplo." Tills resolution announces a great truth, and reals upon an imprognaliiu principle. Lot it lie strictly conformed to, ia all rvs insist upon. If any ono can be selected for Comp troller General who is superior in into? lity, ability for the position, courage in ’he discharge of ita duties, or possessing ..ore of the confidenceo( the people than if >. Thweatt, then, by all muuus, let such one tie chosen. Wo are coutrollod in all wa hay*said an this subject tolely by oonsid- iWstiens of the Public interests. We subjiin the article uf the Federal Uninn, to which reference has been made. A H. 8. From the Federal Union. Ttoe fowplrellcr OcNeralihlp. We have heretofore expressed onr very dcoided preference in favor of Col. Po- tersou Thweatt for tbia office. In doing so, it was not our purpose to lw considered ae uudumting or diaper- aging the qnnlittoatioiis of auy other aspi rant to thie high aud reeponsihie position. It-is-indeed ana of the uioal important offloea in the State; 4he duty to fill it do- volvea upon the General Assembly; and our Wteli—and we believo it to be the Wish of the people of the SUte, whoae intonate aiw so d.-cply in it-ie, that it ■toy be filled mainly with a view to pub lic oooaideratione and the fituoaa and eterilB af the applicant on whom It may lie oonferred. Wo were in hopes that imraonal mattere having no oonnection with the offloe or its duties would not have been brought into tils oauvaea. Hut our hopes in tbia regard ham been die- appointed, and wo take oocosion to ex press our regret at seeing iu the Atlanta Constitution of the Idth instant, an anony mous couiauaioatiou opou tbo etibject, whioh we think does Col. Thweatt groat injustice. This writer Urges the claims of CoL Magill for the office, Against this wo have nothing to say, nor ugainst the merits of CoL Magill as set forth. It may be thut he is well qualified for the I dace, and that he would make a good CornptroUer.General; this we grant may be so. lire question fi.wa.ar u, amid ho make ss good or a better ono than f'.tl *** ■ ‘ * (\a Al. ) . . ■ a Col. Thweatt? On the orio side there is at beat but a speculative probability, while on tbo other the public bos the as surauee of eight years by actual experi ment, In tbit eounsotum, too, it may be asked if Col. Magill ia such an able uiathcnMdfehfo end efficient insurance agent as this writer represents bini to be, aud as wo do not doubt at all or pretend to ifaeriioe, is it probable that the pram porous company wboae business he is eouducting, will be willing to part with him, or that CoL Magill would be willing to give op his ureaont salary at four or five thousand dollars in the position be i.ow holds, fat a ■alary ef luv thousand .hilars as Comptroller General? * * * Ai we here said, we do not wish to de- tstiA tn tba teoat from the mertte of CoL Magill, nor from bis el«i™. to popular Isryfr.bycyue of Jh* armless deers by life uaea-gnnleae ru aonseqncnee of gal- lint eervinee in the field. * • * - Whet we intended, however, more pa tio Jl«<j*».lludc to in the omamndoa- tiwe in the OaMMfcn, are the penoual etticka tberain oude upon CoL ThAatk No one, ae yet, has questioned hilcm- mmtiSi&'Xstps uqo has ftfttoulcd ottiMr kis qualifications uUdgrity. *9 one lia* hkd f u »“f •fl ftgtfn»l any act of liia Admin- Section % Be it further enacted, That i:trotion ilorin# the whole period of eight ft thill he the duty of said eoirmittee, nttee with each immediately after the appointment to goienl aatiftfaoUou to the people of the giro uotaMOf the tun* and place of «t- irmpectire of party. ting h? poblithiag thia preamble and Vheperaonol ftwanlu of the writer to aet, atlooat two month* prior to their tohioh we allude, now made, amount to ait ting, in two newspapers in the city of the*j two charges: Atlanta, two in the city of New York, l»t That he ia arrogant in his nseump- two in the city of London, and ono in ions and seems to claim the office aa bu the city of Frankfort own, as a matter of right We gif* but what we deem the substance of the oharge, and in reply say, we think it does him great injustice. When and to whom, we ask, has he ever shown any such disposition? 2d A iiunion is made to bis lute cards or addressee, to the public upon this sub jeot, in a spirit, as we conceive, quite as unjust as uukuuL Were not these cards necewnry for his own vindication? Did he “come out,” us this writer rather sarcastically speaks of these addresses, until duty to himself, as well as to the public, required it? Has he “come out” at all except iu reply to insidious attacks, not upon bis merits or qualifications for the office—because these are beyond assault—but ujxm his Demo- erotic fidelity. Was it not proj>er and necessary for him to “come out” when even so at tacked ? Is not his vindication in these addresses upon these points ample and complete ? Can any one say that they are not ? This writer seems to feel the force of these, and attempts to break it bv saying thut “when Mujor Burns was elected he came out as often ttien as now. ” In this again we think great injustice is done Colonel Thweatt It is true that Major Borns was elected over him in 1865. It is also, true, we believe, that at this ejection, certain per sonal charges were made ugainst him, wholly unfounded in fad, and which, he thought, as we know, caused his defeat— But at that time he did not “come out" in the : r refutation. He silently bore the consequences. To say at this time, therefore, that he osmeout “then as often as now,” with the inferential intimation that bis pres ent vindication of himself in the matters lately charged will be as ineffectual as it waa before, seems to us to be the “uu- kindest out” of all. Without in any way connecting our selves with the personul matters dis cussed in Col. Thweatt's addressee, we feel it nothing but duo to him on this occasion to say that we thiuk ho lias com pletely silenced the authors of the stories concocted ugainst him, aud to his preju dice. But onr wish ia that the contest, where other things are equal, shall l>e decided upon the merits of the candidates and their qualifications for the office; aud thnt the canvass shall be conducted on this basis and not upon personal detrac tion of any sort. On this basis wo feel perfectly assuied, and so do the people of Georgia, thut the interests of the Htnte will bo safe in the hands of Colonel Thweatt; and upon the score of need—losses from tin results of the war—and the dependence of his own family, as well as thut of others, widows and orphans, looking to him for aid and support, we also feel assured that no one has stronger claims than ho upon the generous sympathy of the State. From the Greensboro, Oa., Herald,Dec. 21, 1871. Tl»c Legislature nnd Lie Press. The propjsitiou ;o exempt the news paper press of Georgia from taxation, elicited quite a protracted discussion in tTic Legislature last week. The tools of the mechanic aro usua'ly exempt from taxation. Why should not the tvpes and presses of the journalist? And here we remurk, that there is a wide difference between huge publishing establishments which do only a book und job publishing business, and simply a newspaper office. Tbo well conducted journal unquestion ably promotes the general welfare of the country, by the dissemination of useful intelligence upon nil subjects. It is iu* deed » public bi ucfuctor. Few agonce* for tho incuts) and moral improvement of the people are iii motion without its instrumentality. There is no class of workers who do so much free work for Chnruh and State, as journalists—no profession that is so poorly paid. We confess our surprise und Mortification, that gt'iitleincn who are supposed to pos sess sufficient intelligence to represent a Georgia constituency, and who doubtless owe their position mainly to the influ ence of the art which is “preservative of all others,” and elevates allolusscs, should disparage Georgia jouronlisin. We hope they will be marked and hereafter "left severely idoue,” by tho profession they are ubablo to appreciate. Heretofore the press of Georgia has received certain courtesies from certain institutions and interests, but we havo yet to learn that it has not in return always giveu a full con sideration for all such favors. Wo repel the Potion that editors aro in any sense ‘dead heads,’ and our Legislators in try ing to stultify us only injure themwelves. Let them mark that We feel less em barrassment in writiug upon this subject, because we have pud regularly a tux up on our material, und have neither askinl or received auy patronage from the State. a-a-4 THE ISO ADS OF GEORGIA.
