• Northern Visitors and Immigrants.
In the three arrival lists published in the
Tkleobaph yesterday about tetenig of the ani-
. vals are from beyond the State line—mainly from
Northern States and a few from Europe. This
is an unusual number for Uacon,at this season of
the year; but other Georgia towns on the greater
thoroughfares show still more striking indica
tions of the general interest felt in the South
ern country and particularly in Georgia. In Sa
vannah the hotels have been crowded to excess
all winter, and it is to be feared that the scanti
ness of accommodation have put visitors in
some instances to inconvenience.
This movement in the South is one of the most
gratifying signs of the times; and we trust it is
the certain precursor of large immigration and
heavy investments in Georgia landed estate. We
want to see the Northern people flock here by
thousands, and And a pleasant, profitable and
permanent home on Georgia soil. Twenty-five
per cent, of those people in the New England,
Middle and Western States would not only im
prove their fortunes by immigrating into
Georgia, but vastly improve their health and in
crease their longevity.
Every man who finds himself or his family
scrofulous, weakly and predisposed to pulmonic
affections, should seise this occasion, while
there is so much cheap and vacant land, to lo
cate himself in Georgia to suit his own taste.
The range of climate and soil is so vast, that
every man can please himself, if he will take
the trouble to examine the country and make a
selection; and he can buy anywhere fer half
what the same lands will be worth a year or two
He will find, too, that suooess and comfort are
the certain remit* at industry and common
prudence and sagacity. Nowhere in the North
or West can a man be sure of a comfortable
subsistence and steady gains as the certain re
ward of even judicious labor. Agricultural en
terprises in those sections, even when prose
cuted with ardor and discretion, sometimes fail
of adequate rewards. But here, we can
leisurely and in a somewhat slovenly fashion,
and still show better pecuniary results at the
end of the year, than hard work and the best
management can evolve at the North.
We were astonished in reading, the other day,
an elaborate account of somo of the great milk
farms near New York, to see that with all the
extraordinary care and large outlay expended
upon those farms, a yearly nett profit of fifteen
to twenty-five hundred dollars was the average
exhibit of results from a dairy farm of forty-
five or fifty oows. Half the investment of cap
ital and care and labor in the South would pro
duce from fivo to ten thousand dollars profits.
We want to see some of the best farmers ot
the North and West come down here and show
us what they can do. There is not ah intelli
gent farmer in Georgia who would not be glad
to give them all the information and neighborly
counsel they would desire in a new climate and
new soil, and to reoeive, in return, such infor
mation as they could impart about the better
processes and agricultural implements of the
North and West
We presume every man who has made the
tour of Georgia will be thoroughly emancipated
of all lies and delusions about the lawlessness
and savagery of our people. They will have met
everywhere a civil, polite and kind reception.
They will have appreciated the universal anxiety
to inspire a pleasant and agreeable impression,
both of the country and the people, and they
will have seen for themselves that any well dis
posed emigrant from any section of the United
States or any part of the world is as sure of as
hospitable and neighborly reoeption in this State
as he could be in any part of the Western
country. Indeed, wo are certain he will find
our Georgians much moro open-hearted and
friendly.
Let them come, then, without apprehension
on any score. Let them incorporate themselves
among our population and help us to build up a
great and prosperous State—strong in all the
tributes of virtue, intelligence and wealth.
bralalag the Swamp.
Editort Telegraph: The Court-house and
swamp question seems to be the all absorbing
topic of the day, and gives a fertile theme for
discussion to all classes, from the drayman to
the banker. I
As yet, there are but three tickets “pitted
for the fight,” Each is committed to the drain
age of the swamp, but may differ as to the time
and manner The first ticket out is working to
have the Court-house located on Mulberry
street, as that land is donated to the county.
The second “where we may have a park.” The
last ticket out wishes to take the Court-house
to the City Hall, and advocate the thorough and
immediate drainage of the swamp.
It cries health and economy, and starts dia
metrically opposite to all rules calculated to in
sure this desirable end, and seems to forget
that these balmy spring days are fast heralding
the hot sun, dry winds and malarial atmosphere
of summer.
The draining of the swamp is no child's play;
it will time, labor and capital to do it. The
bffl for the drainage of the swamp provides
first, that a complete survey of the swamp shaU
be made, and then authorizes the Ordinary
issue $30,000 worth of bonds. It will take time
do this, and before the survey can be made and
bonds issued summer wifi be upon us, and surely
no man can be so lost to the teachings of con^
mon sense as to advocate the drainage of the
swamp in summer.
The great desire of some gentlemen seems
be to break ground, commit the county to this
scheme at once, and why they manifest so much
uneasiness on this subject is a mystery to all
thinking man, unless they fear the action of an
other Legislature in amending this bill,
pledging all the taxable property of the coun
ty to individuals to drain their low lands, and
by the multiplication of Legislative favors de
feat all these catch penny ditch bills.
And this ticket (last out) pledges itself to car
ry out the original intention of the present
Council and Inferior Court by locating the
Court-house at the City Hall, at a saving of
$60,000 to the county.
This looks well enough in print, but figures
give no such result. The Inferior Court em
ployed a man to draft a plan for a Court-house
in connection with the City Hall, and the lowest
estimate made was $60,000. The City Council
would indeed be poor financiers, if they did not
desire the Court-house located at the City Hall,
as Bibb county could save the city of Macon the
expense of repairing this municipal rookery.
Some people in the city may advocate this
measure, but the people from the county can-
noUw cajoled by any such sophistry. V mg an organization to aid the Cuban rebellion.

about draining the swamp and locating the
Court-house, but the ten gentlemen who say, in
this morning's paper, that they can drain the
swamp and locate the Court-house at the City
Hall at a saving of forty or fifty thousand dol
lars to the county, cap the climax.
Do these gentlemen mean to say they can
save for the county forty or fifty thousand dol
lars out of the thirty thousand dollars to be
raised for that purpose? Can forty or fifty
thousand dollars be saved to the county by pay.
ing eight or ten thousand dollars for the priv
ilege of building the Court-house at the City
Hall; when they can get the lot on Mulberry
street for nothing?
Is that your economy, gentlemen ? There
no lot in the city more eligible, and so cheap
for the county, as the one given to the county
on Mulberry street. Who ever heard of a mar
ket-house and court-house in a juxtaposition
No doubt His Honor and the Bar, and juries,
and all would be highly entertained with the
squalls of the chickens, the grunts and squeals
of the hogs and pigs, as well as the lowing and
bellowing of cattle, and the general confusion
and noise that is to be found in and about
market-house.
But, to be serious, show us, gentlemen, how
you can save this forty or fifty thousand dollars
to the county by erecting the Court-house at
the City Hall ? Don’t be timid ! Don’t hesi
tate—give the proof! the proof! the proof,
gentlemen ! For, you know, it is very easy to
say so and so is so; but you know, also, it is
very different thing to prove so and so is
Therefore, you are rolled upon to step up to
the blackboard, and place your figures so that
the people of the county can see' that you can
save forty or fitty thousand dollars for them
by paying eight or ten thousand for the privilige
of putting the Court-house at the City Hall when
you can get a more suitable location for nothing.

The Homestead Law.—We observe, says the
Monroe Advertiser, a statement in several of
our contemporaries, to the effect that in the
case of Williams vs. Williams, heard at the late
term of the Superior Court of Butts county,
Judge Green decided the homestead law Con
stitutional. Such was his decision in a number
of cases directly involving the principle, and
we noticed that in every instance the distin
guished members of the bar acquiesced in. or.
rather endorsed Judge G’s decisions. No argu
ment in opposition to the law was made in any
case litigated.
CoxsECTiccr seems to bd seriously aroused

are fighting shy—evading and dodging the ne

tics and the force of gerrymandering to carry
their ticket through. It is impossible to say
what will be the result.

An Angry Husband Parts with his
Wife at the Altar.
From the Fev Orleant Picayunei]
Some time since a well-known young gentle
man appeared at one of our metropolitan
churches with a very beautiful young lady, and,
invoking the services of the minister, was im
mediately united to her in marriage. The lady
appeared deeply agitated, and there was a stem
determination visible on the countenance of the
youth—a pale, angry face—evincing anything
but joy in the nuptials. As soon as the ceremony
was concluded, the man turned to the lady with
this remark:
“ I have kept my promise now—yon are mar
ried to me; but I’ll never look on your face
again.*’
There was a frantic appeal in the girl’s actions
and tears; she begged, implored mm to recall
his words—promised some wild things better
left unprinted—and then sank fainting to the
floor. The man turned on his heel and quitted
the apartment.
What did it mean?
The simple relation of facts looks like the col
oring of romance, yet ore they true in every
particular." When it is further'stated that the
parties ore of high social position, have numer
ous relations, and that they were utterly unat
tended, the mystery will appear more strange.
Their friends have-tried vainly to reconcile
the matter. An obstinate silence greets every
appeal in behalf of the lady; and she, if indeed
she can, refuses any explanation.
Gov. Wells Discharged.
Richmond, March 27.—Gen. Stoneman to
day issued on order removing Gov. Wells 'and
assigning the duties of the -office on himself.
Mayor Burgess, of Petersburg, was also re
moved from office.
The Philadelphia Press says: Much indigna
tion exists in the State of Georgia against the
Republicans who voted against, or rather refused
to vote for the constitutional amendment While
it was natural for the rabid Democrats to oppose
it there seems to be little excuse for the action
of those who were expected to support it True,
their decision virtually remands toe State back
into the hands of Congress, where its destiny is
safer than in those of its own citizens, as parties
are now divided there : but it would have ap
peared nobler in those favoring the article had
they stood firmly until defeated.
The Health ot Mb. Johnson.—A dispatch
from Washington, dated the 27th, says:

intensely from neuralgia and with calculus. He
is relieved, however, and on his feet again.

White Chester Hogs uitil Devon Cattle.
Clovebdllx, Dade Co., March 27, 1869.
Editor* Telegraph: When I settled my sons
here in 1858, I wrote to that accomplished gen
tleman and agriculturist, John Merryman, of
Baltimore, to bny for them Chester hogs and
Devon cattle. The animals he purchased filled
toe eye with admiration. The hogs looked likq
those you see in English agricultural books
and the symmetry of limb, soft, velvetty skin,
and the deep mazarine blue eyes, of too Devons
delighted us greatly.
Time sufficient to test them intervened before
these animals were sacrificed by the ravages of
war, and the result was not satisfactory.
The Chesters answer admirably, if treated as
hogs are in Ireland or Scotland, like household
pets. But they are too delicate, to turn loose
upon a farm, to hunt its offal, or take care of
themselves. They are liable to quinzy, and
will certainly become mangy, if allowed to run
at large. Such at least is our experience—so we
have substituted a cross of the Berkshire and
Graziers obtained in Middle Tennessee. These
Berkshire Graziers, are black spotted, and twelve
months old, by good treatment, will weigh 250
pounds. They can be had in Sumner county,
and at Murfreesboro Tennessee, for a less price
than the Cheaters. They are hardy, thrifty,
and will suit our Georgia farmers. Devons are
too small for beef, and not good milkers; their
only excellence aside from their inimitable
beaaty, is their quick movements as oxen,
Durhams are toe best cattle by fur! May the
day soon come, gentlemen, when long snouted
hogs and scrub cattle will disappear in Georgia.

To the Editore of the Telegraph :
Gents:—In your issue ot Saturday last, the ar
rest of Mr. Leftwick was briefly noticed and the
warrant sued out for me referred to. The Journal
A Messenger did not only publish the arrest of Mr.
Leftwick and toe jamanae of the warrant for my ar
rest. but gave what purported to bs a statement of
facts, upon which the warrant had been issued, all
of which statements by the aforesaid Journal £
Messenger were utterly false and untrue. It stated
in substance, that by vigilant detectives toe great
counterfeiting scheme had been traced to the firm
of which I wss a member, and that counterfeiting
implements had been found there. This, the editor
says, is rumor, and that the officers have kept rather
shady. I have this to say: That there was uo such
rumor on toe streets, and that the Journal A Mes
senger was not wsrruuted in making the assertion,
bat wss guilty of a vile calumny jn the publication. |
Now for the facts in my case.
I wss absent in Southwestern Georgia when the
warrant was sued out. and seeing the publication in
the Journal A Messenger, I hastened back to Ma
con and nought for both the ostensible and real
prosecutors, and demanded an immediate investiga
tion. They, acting both as prosecutor and Deputy
Marshal, with ths warrant in their pockets, refused
to arrest me, but summoned me to appear to-day
before the Commissioner, which I did, and had,
through my attorney, to appeal to the Court for
process to bring the prosecutor jnfp court; and
when he was brought, after long consultations with
his chief, be begged to dismiss the warrant against
me, after haring sworn that L to his knowledge,
had passed counterfeit money, knowing it to be
such. He publicly stated in the Commlsaioaer's
Court, that he had no evidence against me and could
not find soy. Then, in the case of Leftwick, be
moved for a continuance, and made an affidavit that,
by Heppey, he could prove that be (Heppey) had
sold to Leftwick a large amount of counterfeit
money; that a subpoena had been issued St toe re?
quest of Mr. Fitch, ths U. 3. District Attorney, but
that Mr. Fitch had directed him not to serve it on
the said Heppey.
Now, Mr. Fitch did state, on Saturday, that he
could not go to trial without toe evidence of Hep.
pey. If toe affidavit of the prosecutor is at all re-
liable. Mr. Fitch has acted in had faith, both to the
Court and to the accused; for, in his place, as an
attorney, he stated to the Court, that he could not
go to trial without the testimony of Heppey, whose
testimony he could have by to-day, and ..Ved for a
subpoena, and then told the Marshal of bi« own make
not to serve it If Mr. Fitch did this, he is unwor
thy the position he holds. In the trial of Leftwick
there were but two witnesses introduced. The
Chief Detective. Deputy Marshal, and real prosecu
tor, who took from his pocket a bill that he said was
the identical bill passed by Mr. Leftwick to a Mr. T.
Mr. T. swore'it was not the bDl; that the bill given
him by Mr. L. he had kept to itself, aud.gave it
back to Mr. L., who redeemed it; and that the bill
produced in Court was not the hill; and further
stated that he did not know that the bill received
from L. was counterfeit. Suffice it to say that Mr.
Leftwick was abundantly acquitted.
