Advertisements for Fire Companies and Churches, The Albany News has been an apolo gist and a very warm defender of Mr. Kimball, and his enterprises, from first to last. That paper of the 10th instant contains a long article, which is a heavy, up-hill, struggle, to make out a good case for the Brunswick and Albany Railroad, and to shield Mr. KimbolL It rejoices that the Road is completed from Brunswick to Albany; that it is “accomplished,” even if “under a cloud” and still ‘-'within the coils of adverse in terests and complicated embarrassments.” It puts in this plea: The legitimate obligations of the State for tho construction and equipment of the road, though they cover theentire.cost, onght not, and, in my judgment, cannot, impair her creditor increase her taxation. When relieved of its present embarrass ments, * * it is our solemn conviction that it will prove a profitable investment and save the State from loss. * * We base our convictions npon the square proposition that the State is bound for nothing beyond the letter of the law and actual expenditures. Geor gia will not assume indebtedness created by fraud, or recognize boudsissued with out authority. The Road and its bonded debt must stand upon their merits. The Road is an accomplished fact, and cannot be disturbed—somebody will operate it; and, so far as the people and commerce are concerned, it were all one that John Doe instead of Richard Roe shall own and run it. * * * * If the runaway Governor lias trans- scended his powers and issued bonds not authorized by law, or in a way, or faster thnn prescribed by the statute, it is the misfortune of the unwary purchasers, for we apprehend no sane man will say that the State is bound by such obligations. A forged note may be honorably resisted in the hands of an innocent holder, by an individual. May not a State also honorably resist obligations conceived by her Executive in fraud, and uttered by forgery? She may resist, and none but fools and knaves will name repudiation. All of which leaves the main—the vital question—entirely out of view. Of course, the. State is not bound for bonds issued in excess of the amount due by law for the actual itentiary for it. If such be the case, it is not simply “Bullock’s and the bondholders’ quar rel,” but is a clear case of receiving and uttering forgeries, and is equivalent to receiving and dealing in stolen goods— Tcnowing them to be such ! We are aston ished at the immoral pleadings of the News. We have no objection to the people of Southern Georgia having the road and reaping all its benefits and advantages. We [only object to the people of the whole Stale being so heavily taxed for local accommodation. This is all. .GEORGIA LEGISLATURE. ELEVENTH DAYS PROCEEDINGS. number of miles completed, and no one will have the hardihood tS contend that it is: nay, it is the solemn convic tion of those who have carefully investi gated the matter, that the State is not le gally or honorably bound for a single cent of any of these bonds, for they have all been issued contrary to, and in violation of law; and, if we mistake not, this point has already been judicially established in “ATLANTA WEEKLY SUN,” | Georgia! But upon the hypothesis that tho State is bound for its I indorsement npon that portion of tho road whiih is completed, the loss of the people of Georgia cannot fall short of $2,000,000. The road will never pay its liabilities; it will never It will not only fail to pay its bonds, bat will not be able to pay the interest on them, as it falls due. When this event occurs, the State must take possession of it and sell it When sold, it will not bring the half of the amount of the State indorsement on its bonds. Those bonds are payable in gold, and the State lias indorsed for the road When tho road is sold, it will not bring $10,000 per mile—such, at least, is our opinion. We venture that prediction. The re mainder of the bonds must be paid by the people, for which they must, all over the State, be taxed alike—the citizens of Rabun and Walker counties paying the same taxes to satisfy these indorsed bonds that the people of Albany and Bruns wick will.

The News puts in this plea for Mr. Kimball: As to Mr. H. I. Kimball, we still have faith iu his integrity and the honesty of his purposes. This confidence is bused on nearly four years of personal iutim*cy and personal friendship Aud after giving the Chicago fire, and other things, as the causes of his failure, adds: Whether] Mr. Kimball has received more bonds than the number of miles of completed road calls for, as currently re ported and generally believed, we have uo means of knowing, and care but little, as that is Bullock’s and the bondholders' quarrel, not ours. We believe Mr. Kim ball intended in good faith to accomplish all he undertook, and had no thought of overreaching Bullock or of plundering Georgia. Till the contrary is clearly shown, we shall give no credence to de famatory rumors, and entertain no sus picion of his complicity with schemes to rob our people. We have reason to hope that he will yet recover, pay off his lia bilities and go on with the Brunswick aud Albany Railroad. All of which is charitable toward him but we do nob see how such charity can be entertained and pleaded for him pub licly, if it be a fact, as “currently report ed and generally believed,” that “Mr. Kimball has received more bonds than the number of miles of completed road calls for!” If he has “received" bonds in this way, he certainly has had tho Ball tbo usual ratcB. . . . In order to establish uniform rates of advertising for the Daily Press of Atlanta, we have adopted the .foregoing schedule of prices, aud will bo governed by them iu the future. „„ y W. A.

The roll was called, and the journal read and approved. • The resolutions rescinding the resolu tions passed at the lust session in relation to the payment of Executive warrants, and the 20th section of the appropriation act, being the unfinished business of Sat urday, was then taken up. Senator Campbell resumed his re marks in opposition to the resolutions. Mr. Candler opposed the resolutions because they are unconstitutional, as re lating to more than one subject matter; aud that a resolution is not of sufficient solemnity to suspend or repeal an exist ing law. Mr. Reese maintained that the resolu tion rescinded, and the 20th section of the Appropriation Act repealed by the resolutions are substantially the same, and argued from the Constitution that a resolution can have the effecc of law, if so intended. Mr. Brown opposed the resolutions on the ground that the operation of a law could not be suspended iu that way. Mr. Hinton claimed that the resolu tions are warranted by precedent, and such precedents have been sustained by the Courts; that they do not violate the Constitution, and in the necessity for immediate action, ought to be adopted. Mr. Reese moved to refer the resolu tions to the Judiciary Committee; car ried. Mr. Htllyeb offered a resolution to provide temporarily for the printing of the Senate and directing the Secretary to make a suitable arrangement therefor: adopted.
