monU. Motion oarriod.
Mr. Tift offered an amendment as fol
lows : Inferior Courts in such counties as
may desire them. Tabled.
The section was then adopted as ro-
^°8eo. 2. Paragraph 1 was rood. Mr. Col
lier moved to Btrike all after “Associate
inatioea.”
This section, authorising the General
Assembly to appoint two additional Jus
tices to the Supreme Benoh was the spring
of a very interesting debate, in whioh
the strength of tbo beat legal anility was
exerted.
Mr. Mathews made a most excellent end
logical speeoh, advocating the addition to
Supreme Court in the strongest and moat
emphatic terms.
Mr. Gartreii replied on tbe part of the
opposition. As usual, this gentleman
spoke eloquently and in favor of retrench
ment.
Mr. Bender followed in a speeoh in

1ms manner.

Mr. Bass opposed the measure,
Mr. Toombs then rose, and in a dear

ministration of justice."
Mr. Hammond,of the Thirty-fifth, then
throw himself into the oonteat and gave

preme Oonrt. That for the last three
years the Chief Jnatiee has worked on the
Sabbath, and often Judge Bleckley has
•risen at 12 o’olock Sunday night io be
ready for his decisions on Tuesday morn
ing. That from tbe amount of business
before the Court tbe reports are delayed
for a long time before they oan be sent to
the lawyers and through them to the peo
ple. It would be better to have the mat.
ter as it is in the report, for there it is in
the decision of the General Assembly.
Let them decide the necessity for tbe in
creases, but let them have the power to
make the deoision.
Mr. Lawton, of the First, also support
ed the report of the committee in a speeoh
of about ten minutes length. The re
marks of this gentleman were strong and
sensible.
Mr. Flewellen moved to insert a pro
vision, fixing the manner of appointment
by the General Assembly to be by a two-
thirds vote of its members.
The previons question was called, but
was withdrawn.
Mr. Wright, of the Forty-second, also
spoke on this section, with his aeoustomed
power and dignity.

the report of the eommittee.
The previous question was then called,
and was put on the amendment offered
by Mr. Collier, of the Thirty-fifth, with
the amendment of Mr. Baas, wbioh had
been aeoepted by Mr. Collier.
The question ss put, was to fix the
number of tbe Supreme Court Judges to
their present standard, without any power
to add thereto, being repoeed in the Gen
eral Assembly. The yeas and nays were
called. The oall was sustained and the
Sooretary proceeded to read the roll, the
members calling their vote as their name
was aonnded. The vote stood as follows:
Teas, 129; nays, 68. The amendment
was adopted.
Mr. Mynatt moved to strike out all after
“Associate Justices.” Tabled.
The paragraph was then adopted as
amended.
Paragraph 2 was read.
Mr. Mynstt offered an amendment
which would substitute “one or more” in
lieu of “a majority.” Tabled.
Mr. Wright, of the Forty-second, offer
cd an additional paragraph, to oome after
the second paragraph. The proposed
paragraph reads as follows :
“No Judge of the Supreme Court, or of
any other court, shall preside in any case
affecting the validity or any material in.
terest arising out of any bond, Federal,
State, corporation or municipal, who holds
in bis own right, or as the representative
of others, any of the olass of bonds upon
wbioh the question to be determined
arises.”
Mr DuBoaS moved to table. Motion lost.
Mr. Dismuke offered an amendment
whioh was accepted by Mr. Wright: “Nor
in any railroad osse where the Judge
owns any stook.” Diamuke’s amendment
Mr. Hammond, of the Thirty-fifth, of
fered a substitute to Mr. Wright’s amend-
lb follows:
Jsreat in the osse at bar, or in tbe
fine raised therein, shall disqualify
> interested Judge from presiding in
h eases.”
Mr. Guerrard wished the amendment
couched in the terms of tbe “Magna
Charts," to-wit; “No man shall be Judge
in his own ease.”
Mr. Hammod refused to rooeive the
: suggeaeioa.
, Mr. Mathews then spoke against the
odmenl of Mr. HuduodcI, ud st tbo
noluaion of his remarks, Mr. Hammond,

j drew his amendment.
The question was then put on Mr.
Fright's amendment in the form of an ad-

—At Valdosta, on Thursday, the little

ports of Georgia’, one, Savannah, is vir
tually ignored, and tbe other, Brdnawiek,
is spoken of in a derogatory manner,while
tbe port of another State, Port Boyal, is
landed to the skies. It does not require
a very great amount of intelligence to be
able to see that information of that na
ture is not very well calculated to help
Georgia in the eyes of the mercantile or
immigrating world. The best whioh oan
be done by the Agricultural Bureau under
tbe ciroumstanoes, is to oall in the books
whioh have already been sent out, end
prohibit tbe further distribution of any
more of the present edition. Strange to
say, Georgia is paying for the book, and
the Commissioner of Agriculture pub
lished it at her expense.
—Savannah Newt, of Tuesday: Col.

tral Railroad, returned to the oity yester
day from New York. It is understood he
will be waited npon this morning by a
eommittee of the employes in reference
to the rednotion of wages announced to
take plaoe on the first of September. At
the last meeting of this eommittee it was
reported, and so published, that a guar
antee had been given the men by Mr.
George Cornwell,-the only direotor pres-
ent at the time, that he would use his
efforts to prevent the enforcement of the
rednotion in September. The oommittee
had then expressed themselves satisfied!
snd announced their willingness to await
tbe return of Colonel Wadley, when a re
quest for a guarantee from him that there
be no rednotion within the year would be
made. This petition, we understand, will
be presented this morning,
—A bill was filed in the offloe of the
Clerk of the Superior Court of Monroe
oonnty, last week, which is of anffloient
importance to attraot attention. It is “a
bill for aooount and setting aside de
cree,” brought by J. C. Zorn, jr., trustee
for Mrs. A. M. Zorn, and as next friend
of Mrs. M. E. Dewberry, vs. Henry. J.
Lamar, exeoutor of the estate of John
Thurmond, deoeased, and Thos. Dewber
ry, trustee, etc. The faots are about
these : Mr. John Thurmond, one of the
wealthiest oitizens of Monroe county,
died in 1802, and left an estate valued at
$800,000. Reposing trust and oonfidenoe
in Mr. Henry J. Lamar, his nephew, he
designated him as the exeoutor of his
estate and guardian for bis children, and
naturally supposing that the management
of the property and the care of the chil
dren would claim a great deal of Jiis time,
he provided that an an opal salary of one
thousand dollars should be paid him from
the inoome of the estate. The legatees
of the will were the wife of Mr. Thurmond
snd his two daughters, at that time quite
young. The bulk of the property was
willed to the ohildreo, with Mr. Lamar as
manager, as above stated. The war came
on and tbe negro property was lost, and
the other property depreciated. Still quite
a handsome property was left, const daring
the times and general condition of oar
people, owing doubtless to the manage
ment of Mr. L. The oldest daughter was
married to Mr.Theodore Nottingham, of
Macon, in 1871. He died in about two
years. A few years afterward theyounger
daughter was married to Mr. Thos. D.
Dewberry, of Monroe county, and he,upon
instituting the proper proceedings in
Court, was put into possession of tbe prop
erty as trustee for bis wife and Mrs. Not
tingham, relieving Mr. Lamar, who gladly
gave up the property. In 1876, Mrs.
Nottingham was married to Mr. J. 0.
Zorn, of tbe oonnty of Upson. Mr. Zorp
and has never amounted for the proceeds,
also that there is something wrong in the
return of the dividends of the Maoon
factory stock; that twenty-flvw bales of
sheeting, on hand at one time, is not re
turned in the final settlement, and vari
ous othsr items all making nearly $75,000,
and for this amount or so much thereof as
may be found oorreot, he prays judgment
Mr. Lamar, for his part, olalma that his
settlement was honest and complete, and
that all this will appear upon the trial.
He turned over to the trustee, who suc
ceeded him, about thirty thousand dollars
of Georgia bonds, mostly 7’s, twenty
thousand dollars Maoon Factory stook,
two plantations, three thousand dollars,
and other property, amounting to about
$70,000.
The case will be tried at the next Feb
ruary term.
The plaintiff will be reprssented by
Speer A Stewart, of Griffin, A. D. Ham
mond of Forsyth, and Jno. P. Fort, of
Macon.
Mr. T. D. Dewberry will be represented
by Mr. T. B. Oabaniaa.
Mr. Lamar has employed Messrs. Baoon
Rutherford, of Maoon.
