Katidly DiaArrEAEiFO.-—It has been customary for the Legislature to appro priate 820,000 annually, as a “Contingent Fund," to be '.nsed by the Governor, in bis discretion, to meet such expenses as may not be otherwise provided for by law. Govetuors, in letter days, very sel dom used tap this fond, but oommonly bud a portion of it left at tho end of the year. Not bo, however, with Bullock. He nsed it up almost as if it wore noth ing; and his plundering Legislature, passed tlio famous India Rubber, or 20th section, in tbe Appropriation Act, under which lio squandered the people's money nssfcssly to a most frightful extent. The Legislature, st its bite session, in providing for the expenses of tho Gov ernment next year, appropriated tho usu al amount—820,000—tor coutiugeut ex penses. Already, since the adjournment, nearly half that amount has been drawu and expaaded by Acting Governor Cun- ley—most of it, wo believe, to meet claims arising nndor Bollock’s adminis- tratiun. ~r , - •■-, w ! i CmusTUAs Gifts, by tho thousands, nett, rich and elegant goods, just arrived at Sharp A Floyd’s Jewelry Htorq, »> prices lower than ever seen l»eforo. James Sevles—He Tabes WaTke.— Yesterday at 10 o’clock was act for a hearing of the Anfieus oorjitu caso of Mr. Skyk.H. Our readers will remember that he fig ured conspicuously in tho Into unlawful and outrageous arrests of a largo number of the best citizens of D.ulo county— dragging them away froai home without due procaas of law, and without prepara tion, subjecting them to aueli hardships and indignities ua to cause a feeling of indignation to riso up in the breast of every honest man. His shameless disre- of ptvnonal rights, and that security which Hie fundamental law of the laud guaranties to ult poraons—criminals not exoopted—was of the most wanton and provoking character. Two of the thirty mid men, under a decision which appears to ua to be as little warranted the arrests were at first, were placed under bonds. When these Dado county men reached home, they resolved not to rust under the indignities and wrongs which they had suffered; and warrants for false im pri8ohmout were nued out,* upon which Stylos was' afreriod: To pVcyetit being ci^vicd to Dade county to bo tried before tihe cuilicoarta, whore tile dulawful ar rests waiM iav4o by him, he llrst sought military protection - so wc were informed. StoiiJMl iu this, ho sued out a writ of Jtabns corpus before Judge Pittman.— When the hoar of trial amrtd yaett'rday morning, it was announced that Mr. ftkylea hwf Wntjfomlsed with those whom he had so cruelly treated. He agreed to hare tho prosecutions against them abandoned, they would jo* the game towards him. This was agreed to, and the cases on both sides are at an end; Mid »o, abo, lathe career of Jofam ttkjles, as an rgiprtMiir ul innoccuL.people.— Suqh^at apy ggte, is q\xr hupfi and belief. was paid to us in fees in several cases in the Supreme Court, in which some very important principles were settled in fa- or of the ltoad. My connection with the cases was only in the Supreme Court, aud the cases themselves arose during the administration of Major Campbell Wallace, who employed Col. P. L. My- natt. Not by favor to ua, bat ex necessi tous rei t Captain Blodgett employed us to prosefafltft them in the Supreme Court. Doubtless he would have preferred oth- He had but little use for uncompro mising* Democrats. I d<*Hire it to be distinctly understood that if disability or bliuae attach to any for receiving those fees, I am not in the category. And I take this occasion to say, that I have no sympathy with the Centralist par ty. I am o Constitutionalist—not aCentral- iKt; for into such significant denomina tion of parties, I think, tbe migbtyiuuee of the day have resolved themselves. There Is no intermediate ground. Mr. Stephens sounds the key note to tlio har monies of Republican liberty. To that pure patriot, wise statesman and conser vative citizen is due, in my opinion, the )*o«ervatien of the vestal fire of liberty, when about to bo submerged beneath tho waves of “policy.” His entrance into thoaiournali.stic pro fession, 1 considered at its inception, ana do now consider, the most important event of our post-bellum history. Stand ing upon his elevated hill oi political sci ence, with the radiance of the full grown reason of an earnest life shed on the plains below, he aees the sole ho do for the permanency of the liberty of our model republic; and succeeding ages will, if his conneo.s Are needed, keep in grate ful remembrance the sage of Liberty Hall. But pardon the digression. Iu wliat I have said I do not mean to reflect upon any other attorney. Each one will take care of his own reputation. Sidney Dell.

Bard was run ning his True (Morgan—so-celled—we several times alleged Rmt it was, in our opinion, sustained bjfthe authors of the New Departure—the great Head Centres of the Bond limgs in America—men who professed to be DonMcrnto, bat who in vented the New Departure expressly to kill the Democratic pafy forever. That was their objoit. They were tbe great American plum hr era, of which the Kirabiill-Bullock-Bloigett Ring was only an imitation upon a Comparatively small scale. These great jeculators knew that as soon as tbe Deimcratic party came into power, their peculations wonT3 cease and they would be made to shell out some of their plunder—just as the success of theparty has terminate^ the operations of thi Georgia gang. Dr. Bard has hem forced into bank ruptcy. This bos rivealed his creditors. The first man on the list is Wm. M. Tweed, 83,000; ant the next Peter B. Sweeney, $3,000. Our predictions are verified. * * . *>•» iliO The list is an iuUrestiug study. The umouut of the whole is over $47,000i— Among them we find the names of Mrs. Foster Blodgett, 11,000; Gen. Austell, $2,500; Hoyt & Joms. 81,700; Joseph E. Brown, 80,848; Joilma Hill, $1,033.33; A. G. Foster, 81,333.33; T. P. Saffold, $1,333.33; N. L. Aigier, 81,000; James Connor's Sops, $5,076; C. A G. Place, 60,000; R. t. Glover, $4,000. Road Steamers.—The Legislator* its late session, granted a charter to the Georgia Btenm Road Wagon Company. We are told that a number of reliable men in Middle and Southern Georgia have taken stock in tho company to the amount of $50,D00. Hon. H. L. W. Craig, of tho House, is an active mem ber of this company, the organization of which will be perfected daring the ap proaching adjourned session of the Leg islature. Col. G. W. Lee, who firs, sug gested tho formation of the Company, is in communication with D. D. Williams & Co., Broadway, New York, for the pur pose of bringing one of these steam wom ens to Atlanta and putting it to running. This Company, we understand, do not want any Btatc aid. This feature wc like. Wo shall say more ubout these road steamers in our next issue. It may be that they will do away with the utility of narrow gauge railroads. Paid Them.—We mentioned some time ago, that Bullock Had, without any au thority of law, employed Messrs. Peck & Gramling to oonstruct au addition to the Executive Mansion—kitchen, servants’ rooms, etc.,—which, in the opinion ef some, was not necessary. But whether necessary or not, Bullock hod no authori ty to hire any one to build it. Bullock nbsconded and left tho contractors un paid—their bill amounting to neatly $3,000. Since the adjournment of the Legislature, Acting Governor Conley has drawn upon the contingent fund and paid this claim. As remarked elsewhere, the contingent fund for the whole of next year, is nearly half exhausted since the adjournment of the Legislature. The Vote in Dade..—Dade county gavo Col. Smith 113 votes at Trenton and GO at Rising Fawn—no one else voted for. Illicit Distilling.—The cases of the two Lance brothers, M. Lowe, M. A.

Mr. — Hamp ton was bound over. Our Justices’ 0ourta Were oh qniefc yesterday. Justice Butt had a few civil cases. Justice Johnson disposed of a case of assault and one of larceny.

United States Court.—A very im portant case is now before Judge Efs- kino—that of tho daughters of James Loyd vs. M. C. Fulton. In 1861 Mr. Fulton bought of Mr. Loyd tho old Washington Hall lot, in tliis city, taking a deed aud giving his note for part of tho purchase money. That note is still unpaid. Suit has been brought upon it, and judgment obtained in the United State* Court, and property at several points levied upon aud adver tised for sale. At Savannah, Judge Ers- kino granted a restraining order for Pul ton’s relief till be could be heard upon a motion to exempt liis property from levy aud sale, upon the ground that it was in herited by his wife, aud is, iu fact, her sole property. When Mr. FuUon purchased the Wash ington Hall lot, tho “vendor’s lio V* was in force, bo that the note given was, and still is, a lieu upon that lot for its pay meu t—tho amount of which is now some thing near 820,000.
