man's hear:, and nis friend from Gwinnett

the latter "in sum manner" mean: ncla
used language similar to that in the
Rankin amendment in his letter to the
iegb-Ature. "The serpent's name is
c marged. but its van on still remains." It
proposes a commisuon to determine what
compensarioa shall ce pal; to the Locis-
vilie and Nashville railroad. Have you
heard cf the elect oral commission ? Some
times I :an hardly believe that the gentle
man from Gordon wrote that amendment.
,ne lessees nave never stated meir claim.
r:r said tna: they would even be content

Mr. Berner's long effort was received
with great applause. It was pronounced
very generally to ne tne nest speech ye*
