The Skvnnnah News think* that
Gta. Grant want* to be made Preai •.
dent for life, and that hie party will
• metain any movement looking to
that end. Th«t paper say* it is man
ifest that his policy is to corrnpt and
demoralise the country in order to
•apply a pretext for usurpation; that
them bare been some recent indica
tion* of a disposition on his part to
strengthen himself personally at the
South, and a few offices have been
given to most uncompromising Dem
ocrat*—men who being of tbe
•traightest sect could not even ap
proach Badicalism so far as to accept
the Greeley expedient The News
f? M T* t
These little bribes hare been thrown
oat as feelers, and, shonld tbe trick
m work well, it is probable that other
step* may be taken to tbe sumo end.
In thia way ho may, as the corres
pondent of the Courier intimates,
endeavor to purchase supporters at
the South. But General Grant
knows too well that the source of his
‘ political strength and that of his
party lies in the bitter sectional
hatred of the Northern Radicals.
The Savannah Republican says the
South demands and claims as aright
tbe Republican privilege of self-
government, and the selection of her
own respectable citisen* to posts of
profit and trust within her borders.
Bnt says the Republican:
Just so long as Gen. Grant—for ns
is the Administration now, more
than ever—continues the absurd and
profitless policy of making his ap
pointments of Federal officials from
men who do not possess the confl-
dence nor command the respect of
Southern communities, iust so long
SB will his Administration be regarded
BP a* alien in its affections and interests
|> to the great mass of the Southern
people.
Referring to the law enacted by
the Kellogg State Government of
*' Louisiana for the summary process of
' ;'" i JB( | (leoting the taxes of that State, the
Columbus Enquirer says:
And it should be borne in mind
that the party sustaining Kellogg in
Louisiana are not the people who pay
*- the taxes, but impecunious and inter
loping carpet-baggers and such land
less and vagrant negroes as they cau
*"* still deceive by their hypocrisy and
knavery. This gang proposo, by
measures which urnouut to general
confiscation, to extort oppressive
tribute from the property-holders of
ft8 SWiftartfoverniuent* to aid them
in intimidating or coercing the peo
ple.
The Griffin Star thinks Congress
men did right in increasing their own
as well as the President’s salary, and
says:
Everything elso lms increased in
prioe in the past half oentury more
rajpidly than the salaries of publio
officers. Washington’s$25,000 which
bo took from the people of 6,000,000
beggars, was a bigger fortune that a
quarter of a million now, and would
have bough t more property. We read
no where of Washington refusing to
take take it, although he was a man
of wealth, and married a rich widow
beside*.
Discussing the Coweta grand jury
presentment, in regard to tho pay
ment of the Bullock bonds, iu which
the jurymen protested against the
payment of those bonds, tho Albany
News protests against them organiz
ing a little Legislature of their own.
The News says:
Bnt presnming that freedom of
qnest still remains, we want to know
what the d—1 right has this little
ooanty olub to declare ‘ unalterable’
or ‘alterable’ opposition to matters
pertainiug to the State at large.
The Washington Gazette still cou-
tinues tho advocacy of tbe sale of the
Western and Atlantio Railroad, and
the payment of the State’s indebted
ness with the proceeds, and makes the
point that—

The Chroqjcle' and Sentinel ears
the rule which Judge Erakine’s recent
decision sustain: is such a gross out
rage upon the l ights of the people of
Georgia, and is so manifestly intend- to the honesty and integrity of it*
ed to prostitute the jury box of the
Court to tbe purposes of political
partisanship, that it should not be
allowed to go unrebuked, and that
1H*> '
—designed not so much to place col
ored men upon the jury list as to
pack the jury box with just such
men, white or oolored, us the Gov
ernment officers may desire to have
snmmoned. This is the great wrong
complained of; this is the great inju
ry inflicted. Under the old rule gov
erning the drawing of juries in the
Federal Courts of the Slate, there
was no hardship sustained, and par
ties accused were assured of a [air in
vestigation by an impartial grand
jury, and of a fair trial by an impar
tial petit jury.
Judge Erskine’s decision does not
disturb the equanimity oi the Griffin
Star, for the reason that the general
spirit and effect of the amendment to
the Constitution and the reconstruc
tion laws, clearly indicates a determi
nation that negroes shall enjoy this
eight among others, and the Govern
ment is strong enough to enforce it,
and intends to do it. Says the Star:
Judge Erskine but enforces the
edict of the government We have
reason to believe that he is not par
tial to nigger juries, and would pre
fer to have naught to do with negro
officials in any way, shape or form;
but necessity knows hut cue law, and
to that he yields obedience.
The Covington Enterprise remarks
that the requirement that virtue and
intelligence shall be the qualifications
for jury service is what thia eminent
Judge objects to, because intelligent
jurors will not convict persons in
dieted for violating Federal revenue
laws. The Enterprise concludes as
follows:
If anything were lacking to demon
strate the partisan bias on which this
decision rests, by which all the pre
vious practice oi the Oourta has been
reversed, it would be clearly evident
from the reasons assigned by the
Judge. He must be aware of the
prevalence of ignorance and vice
among the recently enfranchised
slaves, and yet he expresses astonish
ment that they are not selected by
the State authorities for service where
the life and property of ehe most vir
tuous and intelligent white citizen
might depend upon their verdict.
The Macon Telegraph thinks that
if Judge Erskine were left to his own
instincts and judgment he would do
well enough. It believes that he is
naturally a fair man; but laoks the
courage and moral strength to stem
times—wherein every official and
every official’s parasite is clamoring
for the sacrifice of public justice, rea
son and common sense to the Dagon
of African politics. The Telegraph
comes to this conclusion:
Those jurors are drawn to deter
mine questions arising nnder sta
tutes in which they practically repre
sent but one and a violent party, as
to the defendants, throughout, und
they lire mere facile instruments iu
the hands of a malignant prosecution.
The sale of the State property, or a
large portion of it, seems the clearest
and easiest solution of the difficulty.
By this course heavy taxation may
not only be avoided, but taxation ac
tually reduced to a minimum, that
only sufficient to raise funds for the
purpose of defraying tho uecesaary
expenses of the Government This
sale would also make us perfectly in
dependent of outside capitalists and
would place the good old Statu beyond
the influence or machinations of the
moneyed sharpers and rings of the
North.
The Taltotton Stanard has to say
of the new Georgia 8 per cent bonds:
We hail the advent of the Nutting
bonds, a* offered to our people, as a
healthy symptom in our pressing
financial needs. Oor people should
not be slow to invest as no greater
security oould lie ottered for remun
erative dividends than these eight per
oent coupon* present
The Chronicle and Sentinel, dis-
cussing the effects of J udge Erskine’s
decision, says:
A oitizen arrested un&er the En
forcement Act will be confronted
With a jury which will try and con-
dyun him before e witness can be
heard in the defense—* jury organ

Trisl by jury has always been re
garded as the palladium of liberty.
It is (he sacred trust the laws and
Qonstitution of onr country confided
best citizens. When corruption en
ters the jury-box it enters the very
sanctity of security for life, liberty
and prosperity. The purity of the
jury system of trial of causes at law
has always been regarded with sacred
fidelity. But iu these days of corrup
tion, when men’s outward actions do
not express their real inward motives,
even the jnry-box is tainted with oor-
ruption of double-dealicg.
The reflections are suggested by the
statement that seven uf the ju/ors
who tried Foster for the murder of
Putnam in New York, and agreed to
a verdict of murder in the Drat degree,
swore to a statement, which was pre
sented to Gov. Dix, that conviction
conld never have been obtained but
for the belief by the jurors that a re
commendation of mercy would pro
cure a commutation of the senteuce
to imprisonment for life, and asking
the Governor to prevent the execu
tion.
We have a similar case in tbe con
viction of Susan Eberhart, in Web
ster Superior Court, who was convict
ed and sentenced to death for compli
city in the murder of another womau,
she being the parumour of the hus
band of the woman who was the vic
tim in the tragedy. The jmy
on the case of Miss Eberhart now
state that if they had known a recom
mendation to the mercy of the Court
.would not have availed, that they
would have brought in a different ver
dict or made a mistrial. A majority
of these jurymen have signed a peti
tion asking Executive clemency for
the woman.
Without questioning the motives
or integrity of the Webster county
jurymen,, wc say it is a matter of re
gret that criminal cases cannot be
tried and the verdicts of jurors stand
upon the firm basis of truth and the
testimony. Conviction should never
beairivedat by jurors except upon
the most incontestibie testimony,
placing all doubts as to the fuult of
parties beyond all cavil; so much bo
that no reason be left why verdicts
should bo regretted by those who
give them
Such confessions as referred to
above are well calculated to throw dis
trust upon trial by jury. It is too
sacred a responsibility fur jurymen to
be uncertain as to the correctness of
their verdicts.

FOSTER.
New Tore, March 22.—A Mat* ment
published to day based on information
derived from a Toi^ba official that Foster
took poison the night before his txecu*
tion. About eight o’clock yesterday
morning the matron of the Tombs found
Foster sick, and in explanation, be then
admitted he had taken poison. The
man’s symptoms in every way confirmed,
the suspicion.
Ou this account the Sheriff hastened
the execution, and while many believed
that tho duration of the religious exer
ciser were telling on Foster’s nerves, but
it was really weakness oaused by the
poison that was aoting on him.
Tbe Tombs physician says that Foster
would have dhd if the execution had
been deliyed until 10 0’ciook.
Foster’s burial.
New York, March 23.—Foster was
buried tniwA. m. iu Greenwood oenn tery,
Hev. Dr*. Walker anu Tyng officiating.
After the service Dr. Tyng said he felt it
his duty to state his beliet that the re
port that Foster hud takeu poison and
was dying at the time of his execution
was false. That he and Dr. Walker were
alone with Foster for three-fourths of
an hour prnious to his going to the scut
fold. That he seemed in good health
aud strength and had remarkable seif-poe-
(•easion of mind. That he dressed him
self with miunte care, conversed fully
aud freely and on beiug vunted by the
Sheriff at 9 o’clock, anuoaoced his read
iness in a full, ohotrfal voice, and, al
though pinioned, walked with firm stop
and without assistance to the scuff Id
where he stood until the fatal moment.
