The Columbus Sun, descanting upon our legislative wisdom, says that “grave Senators and wise Rep resentatives, and even the President himself, pleads ignorance as an excase fur disgraceful delinquencies and crimes, for usurpations and robbe lies. The personal statements, under oath, of representatives of States and people are ignored as unworthy of credit, and extra committees, at great time, labor and expense, are sent over the country to supply the missing links of an eternal chain of lying, perjury, bribery and theft. The com mittees, after a long pursuit of knowl edge under difficulties, assemble with all the gravity of owls and hold high carnival like buzzards over the car cass of a horse.” The Sun draws the following deductions from the fore going premises: For a moment the stench of corrup tion come* forth and offends the nostrils of »»ll oonest men; the council disperse after toe application of whitew hb, and the people go to sleep again only to be Hu keii to rleaih by another s*-t of polit ical 'Uil official vutnpireK 1’be Bi:b*tan- tiiil iut- rt him of the country in the mean time are neglected, agriculture, com- mer -•. manntactureH uiH school* sicken and di< ; lif ■ and liberty, protection and ho urit ere sacrificed that, by open vio- lei <*<• and merit Irulld, a lew legislator* m d 1.iii'iy i*»h and railroad Hharp< rs m:»y glow la and kick mi toe *w at of tax- pi er- wiihoui me fear of join, pemten turn THE WEEKLY SUN. VOL. 3, NO. 431 ATLANTA, GA., TUESDAY, MARCH 18, 1873. W HO X, II 47 NDMlluUf COLFAX AT HOME. The Washington Chronicle says that the reception given to the ex-Vice President at Sonth Bend show's what estimate is placed upon the declara tions of embittered partisans who would have us believe thnt he is a dishonored man, whom the people no longer believe in or trust But the Chronicle should remem ber that the people of a small place like South Bend are generally led by a very few men, and form their ow’n opinions entirely from what those men say upon all matters of dispute. It sometimes happens that the views of . a single man gives tone to the public sentiment of a little commu nity like South Bend; and it is more than probable that the smiling Col fax has exhibited the same influence over the simple people of South Bend. And then would it be any wonder if they should turn out en masse to give him a welcome upon his return home. We admit the proposition implied by what the Chronicle says—that Colfax is not a “dishonored man,” if the editor will allow us to compare the proposition to Radical considera tion. It is no “dishonor” for a Rad ical to indulge his propensity for swindling the government. The fact is, such is considered a political virtue and a party necessity. * rswMir tuwr. .■ATMwna.

It is said that in olden times in New York, people used to hire law yer- ; now they have to hire a Judge. In this connection the Griffin News thinks this is one ol the saddestcom- niei.taries on the demoralized state of allairs m this country, but it is true to an alarming extent The News CMicludes its article thus: “In olden times, such a thing as the impeach ment of a judicial officer was rarely ever heard of, but now it is as com mon as the stealings of Congressmen. Under cover of the passions and prejudices engendered hy the war, tin most characterless men have crept into power, and have disgraced high places within the gilt of the people, and which have become mere articles of traffic. If the masses do not soon awake to the dangers surrounding tin ui, and hold public servants to a more strict accountability, we may bid a long farewell to what little of our liberties are left.” Referring to the resolutions of the General Committee of the New York Republicans, condemning Grant’s Loubiaua policy, the McDuffie Jour nal says: L 1 lie Empire ot Ulysses I. can be de- U\«-d iluUl tile masses a re intormeJ ami tiViuc.-d of tno luiumous record «nd |treis-,nous uims and piaus of the Ram- leal-*; until die people, whose sires in ’7G Ibaiti-ii with the tutu urns of kiugly rule, 'au lx- ai'uiised from tout, stupor and ndilTi-reuce which miwujh preoedes the I he death of a Republic, the greatest auo io*t glorious tnumpu of Right over Wrong iu he history of the world awaits the *r.iud old Demuciaiio Party. The Augusta Constitutionalist, liscussiug the subject of independent [journalism, says, most truthfully, that Vthe whole power of the press depends On its truth and fairness. The lesson taught by the success and power of the newspaper press is that the truth, and the whole truth alone, will com mand public confidence.” Of the piofessions of friendship expressed iu the President’s late in augural, the Uuion aud Recorder lays, “we do uot say that General Grant’s profuse professions of friend ship towards the South has no mean ing. \Ye believe it has a deep mean ing. If the time should ever come when he shall need the assistance of the South then will he be gracious to the South. All of his friendship and kindness is bounded by his own self-interest. When the South will help U. S. Grant to carry out some cfhis favorite projects, then, aud not till then, can he be relied on to be friend tue South.” The Columbus Times does uot publish the President’s inaugural, because it does not throw any light upon any of the important questions u<j\v before the country; but says that “it is strictly a party document , aud shows very plainly that the old 1 policy of ‘fighting it out on this line’ | will be continued.” If there should ever be a con- [ fusion of names, it will be the result 1 of the superfluity of Smiths. JUDICIARY COMMITTEE AND MR. COLFAX. The Judiciary Committee of the Ijower House of Congress, composed of five Republicans and three Demo crats, made the following report in regard to Mr. Colfax’s complicity in the Credit Mobilier swindle: Drawing such inferences as a jury aught, from the evidence relating to Mr. Oolltix, it may be claimed that, the stock was sold to Mi. Colfax to influence him as a member and Speaker of the House, and that it did so influence i is action iu favor of the Uuion Picitic road, and in cidentally in Ms own favor as a stock and bondholder. As Mr. Colfax has retired to private life, this little report will not disturb his equanimity to any considerable extent What will trouble him most is the loss of four thousand dollars of bonds some thief stole out of his trunk. ployee at the Capitol, lx appears that Mr. Kendrick went to the postoffice at taat boor, and was going through the corridor singing a song. Mr. Doyal re monstrated with him, and asked him not to make snch a noise. Words ran to blows, and Mr. Doyal struck Kendrick, who drew bis pistol and fired two shots at Doyal. One of the bullets struck him in the forehead. Doyal then fired three shots at Kendrick, one of which tooc eflect in his side and about his mid dle. Alter firing, Kendrick ran, aud Doyal aiter him. They both stopped the eppoeite side of the street, Doyal holding Kendrick and oalling for help. The engineer in charge of the heat ing apparatus of the capital ran down and fonna the beleigerents in ibis condition. Although wounded they both went up to room in the capitol, where were two beds and sent for Dr. Willis Westmore land. The doctor succeeded in extract ing the ball from Doyal’a Lead. Tne operation occupied about thirty min ates. The course Of the boll which wounded Kendrick was not ascertained. Doyal is a nephew of Gov. Smith, and was removed to his home yesterday. Kendrick is still at the oapitol, and his friends are awaiting the result of his wounds. Though serious, neither party is considered very dangerous, though Kendrick’s wound is believed by some to be mortal. Two yonng bucks le t our city for At lanta lost week, to be gone only one day and night. Much to our surprise three days ufierwarus we met them ou a might train, having been delayed. As they are of “marriageable ages” we tear that tiiev were plotting against some lair damsels in the Gate City. At any rate, they won a suspicious look, and did not maniftB any disposition to communicate tneir business. Had they uot been Goon Templars wc might h^ve expected they met “somethingelse.” But, like Cmaar’s wile, they are above suspicion. We in tend, however, keeping a sfiurp eye upon these gents, for there is no knowing what they may do.—BarnesviUe Put: iot.

We are glad to learn taat Mrs. Warren wife of Dr. Warren, the much beloved pastor of the First Baptist Ghnrcb, has so lar recovered from her long, severe illness, as to be able to take a short trip with the Doctor for recreation.

We hope the trip will prove beneficial to Mrs. Warren in the full recovery of her usual health, and that the Doctor will be re freshed and invigorated by the rest. 'Fixe Crate Crop. A few days ago we noticed that the os pects of the growing fruit crop in this and other parts of the country, siroe wnich, although examining and mak n inquiry on the subject, we have seen or heard nothing to change our opinion — that the early varieties have suffered se- V- rely from the extreme cold of the win ter, and must, at least, yield but a short crop. As to the paospectin other States, the following, which we clip from a late number of the Chicago Tribune, speaks for itself: A communication from a thoroughly reliable writer, interested to know and present facts, informs os that the peach crop is mined in Michigan, as well as in Illinois and Indiana, and that there will be no peaches, in the West at least, this yeir. The present aspect is that we are to have anotner season, as to peaches, like that of 1856. The writer says: have just come from the peach region, and know whereof I speak. Even apple trees have been injured in some places iu Michigan, among yonng orchards, and a light crop of berries also may be anticipated.” Miss Lula A., of Culloden, aged eleven years, sends her cousin, Miss Ethel Norwood E., aged fourteen months, a beautiful baby quilt.

The schools and colleges have flourished, and puieuto abroad have justly felt as sured in the health of their children sent here. The low rate of mortality among the resident population for a series ol years will compare favorably witn that of any town of similar size on the continent. It is uot stated here to boost, or to invite criticism or comparison with any other place; but to illustrate what I have to say on a subject that interests every person— health and human life. Sporadic cases of Meningitis occurred here in 1868, and again in 1870. But the last ten days of this month have Drought sadness to many hearts, becau*e they nave consigned to untimely graves the loved of a number of home circles. Some ladies, and some little girls, have fallen victims; bat a large majority of fhose attached has been boys; and the first cases were generally fatal—termi nating in from twelve to forty-eight hoars. Many of t the later attacks seem uot so terrific in the outset—aud after the first assault is resisted, to assume mt.ny of the features of typhoid fever. Another fact abundantly proven here, is ihat many, and perhaps a majority ol the cases, have occurred at elevated, and naturally healthful sites—remote from any cause of malaria, or local impurity; and where there is no reason to suspect the Bligbest neglect of drainage, or of per- hoi al cleanliness, or the presence of any local deposit to generate imparities; and where the houses aud chambers were well ventilated, properly warmed, aud comfortably furnished—places where, during the summer months, if any sick- uess occur anywhere, it is least to be ex pected. These facts present some deep ly interesting suggestions, to a popula- fii_n situated as the people of this coun try are. As to the supposed greater susceptibil ity of boys taan 01 girls, to this disease, there seems to be no physical fact to warrant it. Tue more rational explana tion may be found iu tho greater tenden cy of boss to expose themselves iu severe weather, aud the.r less regard for keep ing warm or dry. But the great fact that interests all alike, is that <t occurs with terillic ef fect in the most healthtul localities. By the permission of the learned med ical proftesio' I will reason upon these undisputed facts in this wise: 1. Menin gitis is not produced by malaria or at mospheric poison. 2. Such terrible ef fects could not De produced without some very active and hostile agent in tho economy, or machinery, or process of human life, by which it is so sudden ly destroyed. 3. If the mischievous agent does not come from the atmos- ghere tuKen into tne lungs, it must be couvtyed through the stomach in the food or liquids taken, or must be self-ex- lstent in the body, or the proouct of its natural operations. The enquiry as to whether it results from food taken, is one of deepest inter- esr; and all circumstantial evidence bear ing ou that subject should be sifted with the closest scrutiny. It seems that this disease seldom occurs out of towus or cities. As a general thing, the country people feed on the growth ant products —meats, cereals and roots—of the farms where they live. It is as general now in this country, that the residents of the towns not engaged >n agricultural pur suits, except the products of their gar dens, not in use iu the Meuingi'is sea son, subsist from the provision stone. Their bread and meat are produced at a remote distance and shipped to them— it may be often in an impure state—pos sibly with impure elements used iu pre serving. They use more canned food— both meats and fruits—which depend ior their healthfnlness, on the total ex clusion of air, and the soseuce of pntre- laction, and acidity in the articles, and oxygenation of the vessels in which they are kept. If it is possible that a lot of sardines, or lobsters, or oysters, or pickles, or fruits, ar of fisb, potk or beef, entering into the table use of number of innocent people in a most be.lthful community, should produce the poison, that under the influence of exposure should generate such a volume of mischievous agencies, as to suddenly send numbers to the grave; the sooner the people find it out, the sooner they will be prepared to change their modes o^life in order to safe lite. Bat there can be no doubt that the properties that compose healthful food may, by the action oi the natural agents of the human body, be disturbed and disordered alter being taken into th stomach—not necessarily by poison or harmful ingredients imparted from with out, bat by the action or influence of ex ternal objects on the body, be . hanged into deadly agents in their effects on health and life. Respiration, circulation, digestion and nutrition, may be suddenly impaired or destroyed, as weil as the naiural and healthful means of relief, by undue exertion, or by inertia; by ex posure to the severe shocks of heat, cold or damp, without imparting to the system any poisonous or hurtful element or sub stance from without. The healthful aliments, as well as natural agencies of Uaman life, may by their own disordered action or combinations, be converted into hurtful and des ructive properties. It is within tl.e power of nature, through tte disoru* red action of the ha man oody, and in strict accordance with her laws, to convert onr healthful food into disease bearing poison. But I go a step further and insist, that independent of the last described method of destruction we possess in onr own oodies the most am Die means of d« s ruc tion and death. We are constantly dy ing and betug reproJnced or reca«*eMU-d, through the x-rgauized agencies to which I have referred. Onr bodies are daily and momentarily rotting and being re placed. The dead particles are offensive and poisonous to the live body, and benee nature has wisely provided for bearing them away, and relieving the vital organs from destructive contact witb them. Passing for the present the eftsets of a disturbance of, ot disordered action ol he kidneys and bowels, with which all manxind are familiar, I will direct special attention to the offioe performed oy the pores of the skin, carrying off as they do, bv insensible perspiration, the dead and poisonous particles of the body it&elf. We can ail nndentand how theee produce cutaneous disease* where cleau- liness is long neglected. When these pores by sadden or severs contact with external causes, not by imparting poison, but by the foroo exerted on them, are closed, and this natural method rtf reliet is suspended, and this poiK >os matter takes some other directior the body, then we experience the mischief iu mul tiplied forms and varied effects. How far impure or unhealthtul food may combine and aid this poison in pro ducing the extraordinary and fatal attack* we have witnessed, is a question of deep interest, aud full ot uncer tainty in the present state of knowledge. And how the person is to be affected aud wny the poison affects him at different times, and different persons in different ways, is one of toe unsolved mysteries of onr being. Why it shall poison amuoon* membrane of the nose or throat, or bron chia, or lungs of one man, and of the stomach or Dowels of another, or of the muscles aud tendons of another; or of the nerves of another; wLy \t attacks the outposts of human li f e in the one case, an l makes a desperate assault on some vital center in the other, are things we may speculate about, but do not know with certainty. No one is yet able to tell precisely why, without any atmospheric poison, aud lroui the fleet of cold uir, or fluids, anil the consequent disordered action of the animal economy and machinery—one person will have a cold, one a pieunsy or pneumonia, oue a dysentery, one a rheumatism, one a typhoid fever, or catarrhal lever, aud still auother a se vere aud terrific attack like we have seen, and which send* the patient speedily to the grave. But wheu poison is admiu- isiered direct, we can auticipate the clTeet by the quantity taken, and its activity us a destroying agent. Why not sup pose, if a disease results from puisou in the methods I have mentioned, it* severi ty and speed will depeud in great part, on the kmd aud quantity of the puisou ? Herbert Fielder.

The Milledgeville Union and Re* corder says: At the late sessiou of the Legislature several changes were sought to be made in the law govern ing this institution. We believe only two changes of importance were mad^ viz: to increase the number of Trus tees to live, and to sever the offices of Steward and Treasurer. The appoint ment of two additional Trustees has not yet been made. \\ hen the hill relating to the or ganization of the Asylum was under consideration in the Senate at the late session, Mr. Jones ottered an amendment that the wife of no officer of the Asylum should be the Matron. Mr. Harris, in opposiug the amend ment, paid a glowing tribute to Mrs. Green, the present Matron. He saw her surrounded by a phrenzied crowd, f crazed women, who would rush to her, and overwhelm her with ques tions aud caresses, calmed and un moved she moved among them, aud by kindly words soothed them into peace and quiet He thought of Shakspeare when he said “canst thou minister to a mind diseased.” etc. Rather than remove her, let this proud monument of Georgia's gen erosity be razed to the ground. The amendment after the debate was lost GEORGIA’S EXAMPLE CONDEMNED. An effort is being made in the Vir ginia Legislature to secure the enact ment of usury laws, which, if suc cessful, must have the eflect to pre vent the introduction of foreign capi tal into that State* In an editorial on the subject, arguing against re stricting the price of money, as preju dicial to the best interests of the people, the Norfolk Virginian cites the policy adopted by our own Legis lature in reference to the question of usury as au example worthy of imi tation. The editor says: “Just now we may turn with advantage to Geor gia. The great commonwealth, which boasts itself the Empire State of the South, has just repealed its usury laws, and under circumstances which should give us pause herein Virginia before we move iu the opposite direc tion. Georgia aspires, and not with out reason, to become a great manu facturing State; to advance this object she proclaims free trade in money. Georgia is attempting to secure a water line connecting Sa vannah with the Northwest, and has called the cotton States to meet her in convention to secure this end; to advance this object she proclaims free trade in money and abandons the preposterous theories of a bygone age. Georgia is endeavoring to establish direct trade with Europe, aud moves with energy and emphasis in this direction. To aid in securing this she has wisely abolished her usury laws.’, 4-W-d Sea?* A few mourn* u^o Gnurles Sngis- miiud married Maria Margarita Reune.
