trating the evil c«mscq<iciices of arbitrary

followers of religious rec s in opposition to

indigent man, being in want of a rich wife,

t * writer in the town, and sueceeicd In making

she that she had not sufficient money,
and fai l bo to the pretended jeweller, lie
in«tantly handed her a coin, at the same time
pronouncing the sacramental words.

should be made therefrom in favor of the

testator’s will, which b in tlie following
words: “I give and bequeath to Peter J (me
at tbe death of my wife any two lots of my
lands that he may select, on the trust follow 7 -
ing, to with: The net proceeds and profits to

grand daughter Elizabeth, a mulatto girl, he
to take them and apply this property to their
use. and at the death of either the last sur
vivor or survivors, to receive the whole bene
fit” The will bears date 2d of July, 1850.
and the testator died is July, 1859. The de-
fenuant demurred to the bUl on the ground
that this clause of the testator’s wi.l waf*
void under me laws of this State at tue ti:n<-
of maktug it aud at the lime of the death of
;be te»i>itor. The Court sustained
demurrer and refused to grant
pal debtor until the bar of the statute of lim
rations has attached, as between them,
docs not discharge the security if he has
been sued in time. The surety is not dam
aged by the delay since, if he has to
pay the debt, he can recover from the
principal in the implied contract to
Jioid him harmless, and the right to sue does
mot exist in this implied ontract until the
money be in fact j)aid by the security.
2. When in a suit to recover the purchase
raonev of’some mules, the evidence showed
that tbe vendor made false representations as
to the age of^ie mules, and that the vendee
had reHeift^Htd acted upon said representa
tions; it w:t? error in the Court to charge
suit unless it further ap-teared that he could
not at the time have discovered the truth by
using the ordinary caution of a prudent
trader.
Jn a suit against the securities to a promis
sory note, the principal not having sued, it is
not a good objection to the competency of
tbe payee in the note as a witness on the
trial to show that the principal contractor is

ties were present at the contract and were
sworn as witnesses on the trial.

lection of the residue until the meeting of the

of the Act provides for the issuing of execu
tions ng limit the *1. fvd,ing officers of the

section of that Ac. tied res that it shall be
liberally construed :o tttVct accountability

laws heretofore enacted having a special or
local applicali m to raid road, an-1 in force at

that it was the clear and manifest intention
of the Legislature that tl ere should not be
any Judicial interference with the collection of
claims due the State by ihc defaulting officers
of the ro id ? But, it is said, if there is not
ldicial interference, the complainants will
>e remediless. The 7th section of the Act
before cited, jioiuts out tlie remedy which
negatives the idea that it wis to !»e by judi-
;ii interference. The principle is that the
must collect h«T revenue f**r the sup
port of Government through the a lion of
the Ex *cui»vc D;-j>:irl’Uv*nt thereof, whether
derived from taxes,or fr«un lier other; sources
*>f revenue, without any judicial interfer
ence therewith. The Courts will not pre
sume that the Mute in the exercise of her
sovereign prerogative in the collector!
of her revenue, will do injustice to any of
her citizens for her own benefit. Tue com-
plaiuanta at the tun • they signed the official
bonds of their principal must be presumed to
have domes' with a full knowledge of the
law applicable to their liability thereon,
and ns to tlie manner of its enforcement
against tl.B.n for the default of their princi
pal. 'The issuing the executions by the
Coinptroll.*r General in this ca«e being the
» of the Executive D. jiartment of the
.)vernni**nt, having tbe e\cl«.-ive jurisdic-
tioii over that ►ubject matter, the Courts have
no legal right judicially to interfere with the
exercise of that jurisdiction for the reasons
allecnl, either »u t ie original bills of the
complainant, or in their amended bills, but
on the c»*ntraiy, are expressly prohibited irom
ill and testament, deed, whether by way
trust or otherwise, contract agreement, or
stiptilation, or other instrument in writing, or
by parol, made and executed for the purpose
of effecting, or indeuvoring to effect the man
umission of auy slave, or slaves, either direct
ly i y conferring, or attempting to confer free
dora on such slave or slaves, indirectly, or
virtually, by allowing and securing, or at
tainting to allow, and secure, to such slave
or sfiye*, the right or privilege of working
for his, her or themselves free from the cou-
trol of the master or owner of such
slaves, or of enjoying the profits of bis, her
or their labor, or skill, shall be and the same
are hereby declared to be utterly null and
void.” The complainant’s who were slaves at
the time of toe death of the testator arc now
seeking to enforce that clauseof the testator’s
will which conveyed the two lots of land to
Jones in trust for their use and benefit^ This
clause of the testator s will must be construed
under the law sxs it existed at the time of his
death. WhiUt w: have labored to carry out
the intention of tmr-tastator, au*l to secure the
projterty for the t&acfil of the complainants,
if it could be done consistently with the law,
4h11, we aroJorctd to come to the conclusion
tbtf the m-nulaftsy^^quircniiffils of the

Ion as such slaves, and in tbe very

WARNER, C. J.
This wus a bill fi ed by the complainants
against the defendants praying for aa injunc
tion to restrain Austin Brightaupt ami his
wile Rose, i*ersons of color, from exercising
acts of ownership over a certain city lot in
the city of Macon, or further building there
on on the ground that there is a clause in the
deed conveying the lot to Htephens by the
luinnnta, dated 5th March. 3272, uu-
complainants,,
der whom it is alleged the defendants
claim title, in the following words, “On the
express un ierstanding and agreement on the
part of said Alexander U. Stephens, that tbe
lot of land so conve; :*d is never jto be
sold or occupied by negroes.” We are
inclined to the opinion that the first deed
executed by 3Irs. Anth »ny to Stephens with
the full knowledge nud consent of her hus
band, would have estopped him from setting
up a claim or title to the land, and that
Stephens and those claiming under him ac
quired a goal title to the lot as against the
complainants under that deed, wholly inde-
pcndenl of the subsequent deed executed the
4th March, 1872, containing the allcg«**I re
striction. The defendant, Austin Brightaupt,
deni *9 all knowledge of the restriction con
tained *n the deed of the 4th of March, 1872,
when he purchased and paid for tlie lot, anti
il appears that he went forward and built h
house on the lot before the complainants took
any steps to restrain him. The words con
tained in the deed of the 4th of March, are
words of covenant, and not words of condi
tion; and the evidence of the insolvency of
the defendants is not at all satisfactory. In
view of the facts disclosed in the record of
this case, we will not interfere with the exer
cise of the sound discretion of the presiding
Judge of the Comt below in refusing to
grant the injunction prayed for. Lit the
judgement of the Court below be afflrrasd-

3. To set aside an awaid on the ground
of fraud in one of the arbitrators, the fraud
must be clearly and distinctly shown.
4. Wheie there is a controversy between
guardian and ward and “all matters aud
things growing out of and connected with
s ti J guardianship ” are submitted to arbtra-i
tion it is not an excess of authority on the
part of lhe arbitrators to cancel by their
award a q^irivcn by the ward to the guar
dian in his^Edividuul character for money
received from him.
$f5. To justify a Court in setting aside an
$tvard on the ground of mistake, the mistakei
whether of law or faet, must be gros3 and
palpable. 31 ere error of judgment iu the ar
bitrators is not a sufficient ground for setting

Itiperialist plot has been comred up, the

was opined immediately by >3L Theirs that

even the shadow of fact, as from tbe house
of 3L Adelon the PrHjwe had gone
to the house of 3L 3Ianr*j Richard, at
Millemont, Seine et OiafJ. There had
been so little notion of .concealment on
the journey that the Princes* Clothilde had
arranged to visit Paris to see some of her
former pensioners in that ci’y. A domicil

Wednesday by the Prefect*Jr the order of

the slightest degree this incident. The Prince,
when* made acquainted by'the agent of the
government with the order commanding him
to leave France, replied, V I have entered
France in virtue of ray rights as a French
citizen and shall yield otnjr to force.” His
wife, who also received an order of expul
sion notwithstanding X. Tfilers had informed
the Permanent Committee that it was only
the Prince whom he would expel, made an
swer os follows; “I quitted Paris on the 4th
of September surrounded ay insurgents, who
treated me with the utmost respect. I will
be glad to have the fact pul on record thaic

This morning the Pari?'papers contain a
protest from Prince Nsisulcon against the
order expelling him froi* France, notwith
standing tii*-passport JAfjcccived from the
authorities on the 10th of October, 1871. The
Prince declares he will submit the case to the
judicial authorities, but in the meantime, to
avoid complication, he will retire from the
country. In condemning M. Thiers for the
step which he has taken in regard to Prince
Napoleon, I condemn him not because
the step is illegal, but because it ?a
foolish, inasmuch as it is a tacit con
fession of his fear of Napoleonic influence
in France and of . is disbelief in the
security and strength of bis own position.

Thn Liberal mortment h«» be*n defeated
We of tlie. South have made it gallant fight
for reconciliation anil constiintionalUnt. The
defeat comes from the North.
Wo see it claimed that the North thus re
jects and spurrs the hand of peace, .-^t the
excitement and chaos of defeat,' it is easy to
err in judging of ita causes. Tbe matter is
settled, and ire hare full insure to indulge in
a calm retrospection.
The history of all successful anus show
that the war party has for a long series held
control by reason of its success. The Radi
cal party brought the late revolution to an
end. It has since enjoyed the fruits of iu
great victory. It has in the two National
elections since the war ended, cleverly player
as its trump card the Jssuet of the war and
their preservation, ^bey broke constitu
tions to whip the war. They will do so to
the end of the chapter to preserve their tri
umph. And this while at bottom respecting
constitutions and esteeming their real value
in res] peace.
We should be loth to think that a majority
of the people of this country contemn con
stitutionalism. Yet the North will violate
it forever to ho.d on to the fruiU of that war
that cost them its wholesale violation aud
blood and treasure to su -h an extent.
Let us place ourselves in their place, and
e may realize the philosophy ot the Radical
successes of 1883 and 1873. The thing that
has defeated us has been the Northern appre
hension of the evil to result from the return
to power of Southern sentiment. Not
even the great weight of the brains
and patriotism of the Radical party leaders,
thrown into the scale, not even the adoption
ofagreat representative of Northern sectional
soirament could overcome the effect of an
adroit, persistent, ingenious, devilish appeal
to that feeling of sectional apprehension

fifty miles cast-southeast of the Island of
East Spitzbergcn, in the middle of the usual
position of Ute Polar stream, which generally
carries an enormous mass of ice towards
Spitzbergcn and tbe Bear Islands.
In July and August of this summer the ice
current held a more catthrly course towards
Nova Zemoia and left tbe western balf of tbe
sea free from ice, as tbo reports already re

August and announced.

which appeared npou maps in 1817 as Wiche
Land, and which was then given as extending
from 78i deg. to 751 deg north latitude.
The whole sea to the south and east of this
land Captain Johnson found entirely free
from ice on August 16. On tho 17th of
August he anchored near the point of this
land in north latitude 79 deg. 8 min., and cast
longitude 80 deg. 15 min., for the purpose of
fishing and supplying himself with fuel from
the immense piles of driftwood which were
accumulated along the shore. Landing to
explore the land, which he was tbe first to set
foot upon, he ascended a mountain near the
coast, from which he obtained a view over a
wide circuit. He thus discovered that the
land musses which, by Captain Altman, had
been supposed to be separated by channels
into three islands, were ultimately re-
uited so as to form a continuous though
deeply indented island. There were also
a number of small outlying islands. On the
evening ot the 17th of August Captain John
son again set sail, and followed during that
night and tlie two successive d»ya (viz: the
18th and 19th of August) the entire east and
southeast coast of,the land which was every-
where, as well as the open sea, fur and wide,
wholly destitute of ice. The ocean lying to
wards tbe east-northeast wss also perfectly
free of ice, so far as it was distinguishable
from the summit of the hills. Only os the
north coast was there any ice.

THE PAYER-WEYPRECUT EXPEDITION.
Dr. Peterman has received information
from tbe Payer-Weyprecht expedition,
dating from the 16th of August, when it was
near the Bear Islands, in 76 deg. 17 min
north latitude, and 80 deg. 41 min. east Iongi :
tude. The expedition found immense mass
es of thick ice—since it is driven to the west
half of the sea—but Payer wrote, “For
steam easily penetrable.” ‘ Although,” Dr
Petermsnn concludes, “the expedition first
strived on the 25lh of Jniy at tbe ice barrier,
in 7i| deg. north latitude, and 48 dig. east
longitude, it was enabled by the 16th of An-
gust to make its way to its p -sition in sigh;
of Cape Nassau, at least *29 leagues in
straight line.
The Vote in Atlantn.
It will be curious to notice the vote in Ful
ton at tlie election on the 5th, and compere
it with previous votes. If there has not been
in reality any repeating by the Graut party,
that party has made a surprising jump in
numbers.
The total vote polled at Governor Smith's
election in Atlanta and West End wss 4.1S3,
of which Smith received 3,649, and Walker
1,472. The total vote polled at this elt etion
at the two places is 4,858. of which the Demo
crats polled 2,051, and the Radicals 3,807.
The whole vote has Ifcea increased 719. The
Democratic vote has fallen off 598. The Rad
ical vote has increased 1,335. Smith’s ma
jority was 1,159 at the two places. Grant’s
majority is 756. In the Denftcratic vote we
include the Greeley and O’Coeor votes.
In the connty the whole vote at this elec
tion is 5,039. At thq Smith election it wss
4,366, an increase on the whole vote of CGI.
The Democratic vote now in the county is
2,.23 or a falling off of 733. That is, 733
Democrats staid at home end refused to go
out and help elect a Democratic Congress
man. The Radical vote in the county at
Smith's election was 1,510. This election it
was 2,887 or an increase of 1,327, almost
doubling itself. There is the best ground for
believing that bold and large frauds were
perpetrated to make this increase.
Glenn was beaten hy Freeman 518 votes in
the county. This' is the fruit of the fraud.
Glenn got 451 mere votes than Greeley, Of
these 318 constituted the “Staiehl" vote all
told in the county or abont one-seventh of
the Democratic votes polled, or one eighth
of tho Democratic vote for Smith. *
Only 70 more votes were polled for Con
gressmen than for President These were
the Democrats who voted for Glenn and not
for Greeley.
It will also be seen that the vote for Grant
2,837, was almost np to the vote for Smith,
2,858, in the county. While the vote for
Grant in Atlanta and West End, 2,807, is
larger than Smith's vote, 2,649, hy 153 votes
This shows the Radical fraud to be un
doubted.
By voting the entire Democratic vote polled
at Smith’s election, wo would only have
beaten Grant and Freeman 19 votes. But
600 Democrats staid at home and did not
vote, tliU9 giving the election to the Radicals.
Freeman rau behind Grant 63 votes. The
same Democratic vote that was given to
Smith would have enabled Glenn to beat
Freeman, fraud and ail, 82 majority in the
connty.
The resnlt is simply a shame to the Atlanta
Democracy. The party has to thank itself
for its defeat in the county and city.
But it must be admitted that many went
to vote and become so disgusted at the Radi
cal pressure to absorb the polls that they left.
But men are not excusable in thus giving up
an election.

Mrs. Peligru Carson, the daughter of the
late distinguished James L. Petigru. of South
Carolina, contributes to Aopieton’s Journal,
an interest ing account of o' l St Michael's
Cburcb, and the chime of bells that once
sounded in its steeple a carillon as sweet as
floats from the spire of Antwero Cathedral
These bells were connected with the Revolu
tion, but, having escaped the perils of tbe
siege of Charleston by the British in 1780,
they were destroyed nearly a century latCr
by a mischance of the war of secession. But
we must let Mrs. Carson tell the story of
llieir fate after Sumter;
“Time went on, and Charleston behind her
de fense of sand resisted all the efforts to car
ry her. During the five hundred (five hun
dred r.nd forty-six) days of bombardment, all
tit? lower part of the town h«d to be aban
doned. Houses and churches were shattered,
the cannon balls tore up the very graveyards,
and tbe bones of tbe dead were scattered.
Yet the spire of Su Michael’s was untouched.
Perhaps tho cannoneer tried to spare it—per
haps good angels, guarded it. But what
ueilher tho malice of the enemy nor the
-pile of fori uue did, the people themselves
effected. For the bells were taken down
and sent to Columbia, to be cast into cannon.
Gen. Beauregard, perhaps shocked at the de
secration, pronounced them unfit forthe pur
pose; and the fate which heaped up at Col
umbia for safe-keeping everything of value
in the Bute, there detained the bells also.
Then Sherman’s army passed through, leav
ing its track of lightning. A party of half
drunken soldiers, ont for a lark and for plun
der, were accosted l»y a negro who offered to
show them tlie hells which had rung in seces
sion. ’Never,* s-dd the men, ’shall they play
that tone again,’ and they smashed them into
a hundred pieces.
“Sad was the return to the desolated homes
and the meeting in the dumb church, to which
no miracle might now restore the voice ot
the chimes they loved.
“But they were men of pluck still, and, as
soon as they bad shaken themselves up and
provided for the first pressing needs, they re
sol veil to tax themselves to the utmost to get
a new chime.
“Scarcely had tlie rector bread, and the
vestry and congregation were all very poor,
but they wrote to O. IL Priolcsu, of London,
to inquire the cost of a new set. This gen
tlcnmn had lived so long in England as tc
have become almost an Engifchman, with a
fair English wife and bluff handsome Eng
lish children, bnt his heart siiired at the re
collection of the dear old voices that had
called him to childhood, and he undertook
the task with a hiving zeal that brought abont
the mo6t surprising results. There was no
record at Charleston of where the bells came
from. But Mr. Prioleau searched the directory
for the oldest founders of the city, and went
from one to the other, until at Mearcs& Co.,
Wbi’.e Chapel, London, a firm which has
been in existence three hundred yean, be
found, by patient examination, the record of

FRAUDULENT TOTES.
RADICAL BETS.
I hear of beta hy firm friends of the Ad
ministration on 80JKG majority for Grant in
New York, 80,000 in Pennrlyvania, 20,000
in Virginia, 7,000 in Connecticut, aud 10,000
in Indiana, The amounts stoked on these
opinions are, however, very small, ranging In
value from twenty five cent cigars to “drinks
for the crowd.” Several Democrats accepted
bets of cigars, but were not so lnw in self-
respect as to negotiate bets of drinks. Tho
bet were altogether between Radicals hold
ing different opinions.
TUE ATTITUDE OF THE SOUTH.
The Sunday Herald of thi* dty In yester
day’s issue attributes the loss of Pennsyl
vania, Indiana and Ohio to the stoy-at-bome
and sold out Democratic vote. The Herald
ia the leading Democratic organ of Wash
ington. Of the South it says, in the course of
the article above referred to:
‘The attitude of the South in this contest
i been most admirable. It accepted a plat
form at variance with its long cherished
opinions, and a candidate whom it had re
tarded as a life-long enemy. It turned its
back upon the past, conquered ita prejudices,
and extended the hand of amity and cordial
good-will to the Conservative and Liberal Re-
lublicans of the North and Weak Nobly has
t met all its engagements, redeemed all iu
pledges, and that it will do its dnty on Tuesday
we have no doubt The Liberal Republicans are
also due full meed of praise. In the ehetiona
already held in New Hampshire, Maine,
Pennsylvania, Indiana and Ohio they polled
their full strength and did their work nobly.
Wc say this the more freely aa certain
Democratic journals have done less to bring
out the votes of their own party titan prove
our Liberal allies in default The returns of
the late elections show there was no delin
quency on that side. Had the Democracy
done aa well, Grant would not cany more
than two States on the 5th instont”
FISK WILL STICK.
It is now very well understood thatUmre
cent reports of Secretary Fish's intention of
resigning are as completely bogus as were tho
trevious rumors on this subject The best-
nformed opinion is that if Grant is re-elected
Mr. Fish has a better prospect of remaining
in the Cabinet during tbe entire term than
any of the present Executive atlvi«cts.
Grant don't want Fish to resten; Fish him
self don’t want to resign; and the public at
large don’t care “a Continental ml” whether
he resigns or not It has been stated that
Minuter W tali borne would succeed Ur. Fish,
hots special dispatch to a New York paper

that the President would gladly hatro

agreeable to his wishes. Ur. Fish, on the
other hand, it ia alleged, is fortifying himself
to remain in the Cabinet c second term. He
is preparing a history of Ute Alabama claims
through all their ramifications in farther vin
dication of his management of our (
relations duting President Grant’s

PURE ROMANCE.
One charming little practice of certain
ournaliatic pen-drivers in Wellington is to
nvent romances, when fee s are scarce, with
which to startle the countty. Two of these
are now in active circulation through the
press. One marries a poordtng clerk to a
widow possessed of millions; the other
makes the daughter of aristocratic parents
fall in love with a Comanche Indian. Thera
was a clerk in a drag stoic who married a
charming widow; but the wealth ia imag
ined; while the only foundation forthe In
dian romance is in the admiration expressed
by a chief for the pile of hair on the head
of one of oar belies. The infatuated
Aborigine did follow tbe young lady, and
was found at night loitering about her
father’s premises; bat, when ar rated, be
said he wan'd ''big scalp, much, ugh!"
General Walker immediately purchased the
savage a full suit of hair, and he is satisfied.

A restaurant keeper of this dty has been
fined $100, and bad his license token away,
for refusing to sdl to negroes. When the law
first went into operation he did sell to ne
groes, and consequently lost his white
customers. Finally his bnsinest was
going from him, he adopted a
coarse to protect his interest, with the
shore result In tbe trial it was proven that
tbe party who was the prosecutor hod refused
to comply with the printed rales of the es

the proprietor had a perfect right to make.
