There U, however, an improved aspect of affairs here now, although the stringency which Wall street has for the past thirty days pasted through, has been unequalled in the experience of any of the oldest finan ciers here. For many days in succession as much as one-half per cent each day was freely paid on governments and the mast current collaterals. I am urging Mr. Kimball, therefore, to move vcit cautiously between now and April 1st He 'then can easily make up for lost time by crowding all the force upon the Brunswick and Albany lioad which he can obtain. leaving no doubt in my mind of his ability to carry the road to completion before the close of summer.

Further advises come from tho Philadelphia YVorks. with a similar prop osition iu regard to $2t,OOJ a liich they hold. These figures and prospective obligations ate too large uot to occasion surprise and hesitation on opr part about making further ai Ivances agains the securities wfi hold. Our oblig diona already leave us only 4 fair matglir against ffce collateral which secures them. In viewef what i t above enumereted, we have this morning telegraphed you; “ YVe arc uutvilUng to increase our ad vances for the present.’’ The following statement will show the condition of our advances assuming the value of tlie collateral at 90 cents, which iu present condition of Southern securities is much too high n valuation: $:,050,000 bonds at 90c $1,485,GO >, against which our disbursements and obligations amount to $l;S00,f.00—this includes our lia bility to Russeil Sage, to whom we are obli gated to pay him from tho avails of the gold bonds wc now bold on account of the State, leaving only about 10 per cent, margin for our protection, ns Vie account stands at present; whereas tbe lowest margin ordina rily accepted by bunkers is 25 per cent. We think, on this statement, yon wilt real ize that our position, will justify us ns in onr request that you sbmiid provide otherwise than by draft upon us for the amount re quired.

Clewa was sharp enough to see that Bullock had no business to be ordering him to pay State Road claims, and so seeks to get pay ment from the Treasurer of what claims he had met at Bollock's request July.8th, Clews writes Bullock that he wants official statements to give Henry Schu ler, brother-in-law of the proprietor of the Frankfort Zeitung in Germany, to help the Georgia securities In Europe. The pith of suca statements to be as follows: “We have stated to him that but few of the new roads hereafter will be commenced and built, calling for the State aid, as the aid is so small, $10,003 to $12,000 per mile, (being not more than half the amount required to build them) they would find it more advan tageous to issue- their own first mortgage from $20,000 to $39,000 per mile. It would be well to maintain this in your statement Your statement will be published in the Ger man papers, and in no way used on tlsii tide." Mark the trick and deception in this. November 4, 1870, Clews writes to Acting Governor Conley, paying homage to the rising sun, congratulating him on hb acces sion to the Governor’s chair, complimenting him, begging him to stand up to Bullock's bonds and them, and using this remarkable paragraph, which will alike surprise and de light Dr. Angier: “ fhe unfortunate difference existing under Governor Bullock's administration between DEC IrilONH Mitered at Atlanta, Tsmiay, March 19,1872.

YY’e should prefer, in the present condition of public feeling, to defer dwelling upon this subject, and venture to hope that your excel lency will coincide with us in our desire to postpone agitation of this question. In the present state of affairs, wc cannot but feel for the good fame of the commonwcath, and to avoid farther exciting a disposition, which already exists to many in the Legislature, lo consider financial matters of the Stale from lersonal or political standpoint, rather than n the light of moral and legal obligations.

Tbe execution was levied on the property described in the affidavit by the Sheriff Afterwards an affidavit was filed by Porter, claiming to be the owner of the premises on which the fixtures ware erected with the lumber furnished by the plaintiffs to Mobley, denying their lien for the follow- ing reasons: that Mobley held the premises under a bond for title from him; that he it tbe legal - owner ot the same, that no part of the purchase money therefor had been pehl, that about the 1st December, 1870, the contract for the •ale of the land between him and Xobly was rescinded, he taWm; up hia bond, first pay ing to a petty to whom Mobly had pledged his bond, the sum of $599,95, when Mobly gave up to Porter Ml right and claim to the prem ises. On .-tbe trial ot the case it was agreed by the respective parlies to submit the ques tions involved in it to the presiding Judge without 'the intervention of R jury. The counsel for Porter made a motion to dismiss plaintiff's affidavit,because it was not alleged therein that their steam saw mill was located in the Stale of Georgia, and because the affi davit of tbe plaintifl's did not state on whom tho demand for payment was made. The court overruled the motion to dismiss plain tiffs affidavit, and on motion of plaintiffs coun sel dismissed Porter’s affidavit cn tho ground that he had no right to arrest the proceedings under the plaintiffs fi fa in the manner which he sought to do, whereupon tho defendant, Porter, excepted. In our Judgment, the plaintiffs should have made a demand of payment for the lumber, not only of Mobley, to whom the lumber was furnished, but also of Porter, the assignee of Mobley, if hu was in possession of tlie prem- i-cs on which the fixtures were erected with their lumber which had not been paid for, and should have alleged a refusal to pay for the same on the part of both. As these summary remedies, arc to be strictly construed, the plainUfliH&OulJ have alleged in their affidavit that their steam saw mill was located in the ttatc of Georgia, inasmuch as the lien is only given to the owners ot steam saw mills loca ted in tjii9 Slate by the Act of 1853 and the amendatory Act'of 1870. If a demand had beenmade on Porter for payment of tholum- ber, aud payment had been refused with an averment licit he was in possession of the premises, then he would have been a proper party to have made a counter affidavit con testing the plaintiff's lien.

And if, after passing tho station, tho speed of the cars is again slacked that the passenger may get off, aud under the dircc- tion of the conductor he does get off, and in an doing gets injured, the company is liable.

He paid State Road acconnta which be pleads to Gov. Bullock, according to bis un derstanding of the law, were clearly charge able to the revenue in the State Treasuiy. This knowledge of the law and his partici pation ia his violation with Bullock ia vety damaging to him. The farther fact that he sought to push these claims which he had paid against the State Treasury, instead’ of inserting them in his regular account, tut confirms the esse against him. 7. He tried to get Bullock to make a state ment for use in Europe, not to bo used on this side of the water, that was a deception, and that Bullock nor anybody else knew, viz; that no more State aid would be used.
