DAILY ENQUIRER-STJN: COLUMBUS, GEORGIA, FRIDAY MORNING, JANUARY 12, 1877. Ipailg gnqwtrr. COMTNBVM. UA.i FRIDAY JANUARY 12, 1877. LARGEST CITY CIRCULATION! AND MORE THAN TWICE THE LARGEST AGGREGATE CIRCULATION! Got. Robinson is the first Governor of New York elected to serve for three years. Turk was not one indictment found, all last year, in Maine, for any capital offence. Gov. Blus Jeans Williams, of Indiana, says Mr. Tilden will certainly be the next President. Two banters killed in two weeks, on the Nueces river, Texas, eleven deer, one bear and one hundred and forty-two tur keys. A. T. Htbwaht was popularly supposed to bo the keenest man in the business, but under other management his store has nearly doubled its sales. Cal. Waoneb’s brother Harry perished in the Ashtabula disaster. Ho was a con' ductor on the Wagner sleeping ear line, and leaves a family at Syracuse. The Florida Legislature has directed the new Returning Board appointed by Governor Drew, to furnish the result of the Presidential vote as shown by the returns on file. General Auouit, when called on by the Radicals of New Orleans, said that it was the business of the police, and not of the United States soldiers, to elear the streets. His duty was to stop or prevent a fight. The leader of Harper's Weekly, enti tled "Louisiana," reviews tho situation, and intimates that the State cannot be counted for Hayes without destroying the chances of tho Republican organization for futuro triumphs. Col. John H. Mohdy authorizes the statement that ho uovor said, as attribu ted to him by a Washington correspon dent of the Now York Herald, that he could raise a regiment in Virginia to fight for Hay os, and that he wrote to the Herald contradicting the atatemeut. The following are the judges of the Supreme Court whose appointment has been confirmed by tho Nioholls Senate, namely: Judge Manning, of Rapides, Chief Justice; Assooiato Justices, Hou. W. B. Spencer, Hou. Alcibiade DeBlano, Uoo. R. H. Marr and Judge Eagan. Mb. Clebioal-Ebbor Stouohton has written a long letter to the New York Times arguing the right of the President of tho Senate to couut the votos. As this position has been abandoned by leading Republican Senators, the question loses any practical importance. Thebe is a prospect that Boutwoll will be defeated for United Statos Senator in Massachusetts by Mr. Hoar; and even if this fails in the Republican cauous, Pro fessor Seelyo and Gov. Bullock ore spo ken of us probable candidates in the Leg islature against Boutwoll by a union jot Independent Republicans and Democrats. Epu. Horn’s last joke waa made on his death bed. On leaving him two hours before his death, Tony Pastor cheered him a little by expressing the belief that soon he would be well again. The dying minstrel’s eyes brighteued, and ho said, "I gness so, Tony; I was always a good man at the end-" These were his last words. Wert declared Kellogg Hhould not beat him out of the long term, and says if Grant or Morton supports Kellogg, ho (West) will expose in the United States Senate the corruption of the Louisiana Republicans, and will make it hot for Kellogg, Packard and all the rest. Kel logg has beaten him ; now what will West do about It ? David Dudley Field, just eleotod to Congress in Smith Ely’s district, New York, has a distinguished lot of brothers. Cyras W. is one of them, one of the Jus tices of the Supreme Court of the Uuited States another, aud Henry M., editor of The Evangelist, another. Jonathan, for several years President of the Massachu setts Senate, was suother. General Lomostreet has declared his conviction that Gen. Nioholls has boeu constitutionally aud legally elected Gov ernor of Louisiana, and also the other candidates of tho Democratic party, and that the action of the Returning Board was evidently fraudulent and false, and ought to be made to yield to the clearly ascertained will of the people. A Portland, Oregon, press dispatch says that the Democrats held a mass meeting on the night of the 8th, in ac cordance with the caII of the National Committee. The speeches and resolutions were moderate in tone. Similar mootings were held throughout the State. The Democrats exhibit a firm disposition to secure the iuauguratiou of Tilden. "Sweet by and by, ’’ is a strange death song for a suicide. Wm. R. Martin, shipping clerk, went to his boarding house, iu Chicago last Tuesday afternoon, and after eatiug his sapper and chatting with his room mate, struck up "Sweet by and by." His room mate joined in the hymn,aud finally the chorous was reached. At the words "by and by" there was a ■harp report of a pistol. Martin had sud denly drawn a revolver and shot himself. There was a love affair back of the revol ver. Mb. Klippel, one of the Democratic candidates for elector in Oregon, testi fied before the Senate Committee that he had a pistol, a iive'shooter, in his pocket on the day of the meeting of the Eleoto ral College, but did not kuow there was another armed man about the Capitol. The money was collected by Mr. Bollin* ger to pay Cronin’s expenses and to pay the fees of the lawyers who argued against issuing the certificate of election to Watte at the hearing before Gov. Gro- THE HERBAGE OF GOT. BHITH. The Governor, in his practical way, commences with financial matters. The cash balance in the Treasury on Jan uary 1st, 1870, was itAl 1,78ft.21. Receipts for past fiscal year, $2,332,938.38; dis bursements, $2,280,435.20; balance iu Treasury January 1, 1877, ia $504,283.83. The public dobt, exclusive of tho bonds of tho B. & M. and N. A S. Railroad Companies is $8,447,500. iu accordance with an act of the Legis lature, five hundred and forty-two seven per cent, bonds, of $1,000 each, were executed to fund tho accrued interest upon the bonds of the two companies montioned, for which the State was liable. The receipts by the Htate University the past year were $41,820 99, and expen ditures $39,449 03. The North Georgia Agricultural Collego at Dahloncga the past term was attended by over 300 students, fifty of whom during the latter portion tanght over 4,000 children in the common schools of the Htate. He re commends the appropriation asked for. lie strongly recommends the continu ance of the common school system, and gives a succinct history of its operations. He shows how the Radicals bad dissipat ed its funds and applied them to other purposes, and how it bos improved since that party was driven from power. The attendance of 42,914 whites and 6,664 blacks in 1871 has increased to 121,418 whites and 57,- 987 blacks in 187G, and the amount from $174,000 in 1871 to $291,319 in 167G, and is supplemented by local, city and coun ty appropriations between $140,000 to $150,000. He recommends that the do nation annually made be withdrawn from the Atlanta University and devoted to the establishment of normal schools for tho education of colored teachers. Tho departments of agriculture and the results of the geological surveys are high ly commended. Their value is fully de monstrated. In treating of the Attorney General’s report he states that the United Htates Hupreme Court has decided adverse to the powor of the Legislature to impose an ad valorem tax upon the property of cer tain railroad companies. He recommends a law be provided to prosecute Fedoral soldiors for alledged violations of Htate law and also that the law bo amonded to enable tho Comptroller General to travorno the correctness of tax returns made by railroad companies. The treas ury has been protected in tho suit ou the fraudulent claims of the Tennessee Car Company contract aguiust the Wes tern A Atlantic Railroad. Tho number of penitentiary convicts on January 1st, 1876, was 926—91 white, 835 colorod, including 1 white and 30 black women. At the close of the year the total was 1,108—114 white, 994 col ored. During the year discharges were 77, pardoned 18, escaped 44, deaths 58. The conviots were distributed among sev en lessees. The fewness of deaths and escapes is worthy of remark. The con victs arc now contracted for by three oompanics for 20 years for $500,000, to be paid in twenty equal amounts of $25,- 000. Thoy are to be employed in mining and farming. The details of the con tracts are given. These contracts com mence April 1st, 1879. In the Lunatic Asylnm are G05 patients, whose maiutaiuance, including salaries, cost 4o£ cents per day or $146 per an num—a total of $88,816 63, a reduction of 50 per cent, from 1871. He recom mends changes, the cost of which will be $42,500, for the accommodation of more patients, and also an appropriation of $9,000 to replace the buildings lately burned. The water supply has been in creased during the year. More than $10,000 of last year’s appropriation were not expendod, owing to judicious econo my. The Deaf and Dumb Asylum needs no additional legislation. The Academy for the Blind numbers 57 pupils and provision has been made for more. In repairs last year $4,654 38 were expended. Tho resignation of R. A. Alston Public Htate Printer aud the appointment of H. G. Wright, of Augusta, is alluded to. The net earnings of the M. A B. R. R. last year were $58,445.72. The policy of the Htate is to the disposal of tho road, und if it cannot be Nold it will bo leased. The North A Houth Road lost, net, $332.32, The road must be exteuded twelve miles by the Htate or sold. The Memphis Branch Road was seized in Muy, 1876, for failure to pay interest. The Governor warmly advocates direct trade and immigration and recommends an appropriation of $60,000 gold per au- num for three years to a steamship line between Bavannah and Liverpool—one first-ola68 steamer to arrive every month, passage to be at fixed rates. The details aro given fully iu the message, and its great advantages pointed out. Everyone should read it, and the Legislature give the subsidy. The report of the Secretary of State is merely mentioned. lie montions the suspension of tax collections iu Glynn county; also, tho tax ou liquors sold by druggists; also, the appointment of a board to revise the mili tary laws; certain amendments to the Constitution; also, transmits tho report of companies called out by the insurrec tionary movements iu Washington and other counties. The ooudition of the Htate is good. Securities rated, when he entored the executive offioo, at 30 per cent, discount aro now above par ; a floating debt of $1,250,000 has been paid; a fraudulently oontraoted debt of $6,500,000 repudiated, and no addition of bonds contracted on account of the State. Peaoe and order have ruled. His remarks are true and manly. No socond letter is required to interpret their meaning. Georgia’s motto furnishes the 0 i ae —"Wisdom, Justioe, Moderation." It is not for the Houth to suggest or lead, but to follow. It is the duty of Congress to give effect to the will of the people. Failing to do this, the last resort is the sober judgment of the right-minded people of the North. Wheu they have decided the people of Georgia will co operate with them, and do their whole duty under any and all circumstances. He thanka the people for honors con ferred, and compliments his successor. The message ia an admirable State pa- , per—full and pointed, clear and praoUcal. UNITED STATES NEMATOB. The Georgia Legislature on the 23d inet., elects a Senator to Huccoed Mr. Norwood. The moat prominent candi dates are Gov. Smith, Hon. Thomas M. Norwood and Hon. B. H. Hill. From the information we can glean, we have no doubt that Governor Smith is the favorite of the people. The voters of this county are almost unanimous for him, and our representatives should not only advocate, bnt use their utmost endeavors to secure his triumph. There was no issue iu the canvass in this county, but if it bad been supposed thst any candidate would have used his position against onr own townsman, against an ex-Itepresen- tative of this county, that person would most certainly have been defeated. Coun ty and city pride, if nothing else, would naturally prompt the action. If they do not sustain, they certainly do not illus trate the feelings or desires of Muscogee. To have the Senator from our section is a matter of importance aud a subject of grstulation. Goveruor Smith is tho peer of any gentleman in this State. He is au honest man, the nobieHt work of God. He possesses abilty of high order, is pure and upright, direct aud outspoken. His devotion to principle and State was never questioned. He ranks among the first lawyers of Georgia, is a ready aud forcible debater, and has nobly illustrated Geor gia ou the battle field, in the Congress of tho Confederacy and as Chief Executive of the Htate for the past six years. We point proudly to hiH past and from it augur the promise of a brilliant future. He is strong, just and incorruptible. Pri vate prejudices should have nothing to do with the choice of Senator. Legislators should rise above it, and we trust if any members of this section have each, they not be allowed to influence actions against the interest and the known wishes t large majority of the people. Hav ing served his Htate faithfully and honest ly on the tented field and bh Governor, and redeemed her from Radicalism, he should be still honored with her confi dence by an election to the United Htates Senate. We hope our immediate repre sentatives will truly represent the voice of thoir county and give their influence and votes to Smith. ONE OF THE COUNTY REPRESEN TATIVES AND MR. HILL. Major R. J. Moses, one of the mem bers of she Legislature from this county, stated before he left Columbus that he intended to vote for Mr. llill for Senator because his constituents desired it. He made this declaration in conversation, so one who heard him reports to us. Major Moses is as badly in error in this as he wasiu a previous statement that the peo ple "had called" him to the position in which he was elected. Public offices do not go begging in that style. We have made considerable enquiry among the leading men of Musoogeo—lawyers, mer chants and farmers. Our sources of in formation are equally ; as good as his, if not superior, and if he votes for Mr. Hill, we know he will not represent the sentiment of this county, but exactly the reverse. Major Moses’ constituents cousider Mr. Hill a brilliant orator, but one as unstable as water, who is always an extremist and changeling in politics, who talks most when he should be silent. Most people in Muscogee do not advocate the claims of a tnau whose boast is be never was a Democrat, or if ho was, not much to hurt. Major Moses can vote, of course, as he wishes. There is no power to hioder that. But he is terribly mistuk6n when he says he will vote for Mr. Hill in ac cordance with the wishes of a majority of Muscogeeans, as the next election will prove, should the Major again be a can didate. Hon. John A. Campbell, formerly i justice of the Hupreme Court of the Uni ted States, haa written a long letter re viewing the electoral difficulty, in which he takes the Democratic view cf the case, aud declares that the President of the Senate is but the servant of that body, or of the joint convention of Congress, over which he presides, and the writer traces this tutorage baok, through un unbroken line of precedents, to the time when Charles I dooianded of Parliament the surrender for punishment of IlampdoD, Pym and others, and the Speaker ropliod that he oould not comply with the royal request except ho was ordored to do so by the House of Commons, whoso servant he was. The strongest point in the letter is the opin ion that Congress, in joint convention to count tho votes of tho Electoral Colleges, is a high court of judicature, and if the two houses cannot agree, either to count or exclude a certificate, the body stands in the position of au equally divded court of law, aud there is no docision, aud so the case falls. It follows, therefore, ob serves Judge Campbell, that, if the Con gressional court caunot agree, it is tauta- mouut to a declaration that there has been no choice by the people, and the House must proceed to elect a President, and the Senate a Vice President. This is a dictum that will lead us out of the difficulty. The Demooratio Legislature of Louisi ana on tho 9tb, a quorum in both houses, voted for United States Senator. In the Senate, J. B. Eustioe received a majority of the votes oast for the term ending 1879. No ohoioe was reached for the long term. The House reached no choice. Judge Arthur Sancier, of the Sixth dis trict of Louisiana, died Monday. There are scores of men in New York who are ready to go ou Mr. Bennett's bond as a man of even foolhardy courage. Recorder Hackett is one of them. Some years ago, he says, Bennett allowed him to shoot, at seven paces, a three cent piece, inserted in a cork, from the top of hid head. On another occasion Bennett invited him to shoot, at the same distance, the ashes from a oigar in his mouth. He stood both shots with perfect coolness. A joint resolution is being debated in the Virginia Legislature whioh proposes the election of a Supreme Court by the people, the judges to remain during good behsvior.

Pinkard, attorney for Monroe county,put in claim for the coun ty. Mr. B. Pye was surety on the bond of Mr. H. Y. Gibson,Tax Collector during 1873—4. Mr. Gibson deposited upwards of $3,000 in the bank of Mr. Pye, and when the bank failed the money was lost. The county authorities now olaim that tho money must be paid, as a olaim taking priority of all others, and hence there was no dividend.

Disease Grows Apace, Like an ill wind, and cannot be mastered too early. What is a trifling attaek of sickness to day may, if unattended to, become a serious css© iu a week. Small ailments should be nipped in the bud before they blossom into full blown maladies. If this advice were attended to, many a heavy bill for medical attendance might bo avoided. When the liver Is disorder ed, tho stomach foul, tbe bowels obstruoted, or the nerves disturbed,resort should atonee be had to that supreme remedy, Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters, a few doses of whioh will restore healthy action and put the system In pe " order.
