A Washington dispatch says : "Hoc
rotary Robeson has boon bombarded
again, and this time by a regular bo
nanza of alleged corruption develop

against him is onu accusing him of be

toast twenty millions of dollars,
youd that allegation, comes tbo inoro
startling ono that among the alleged
participants in this swiudlo, besides
Robeson, arc President Grunt and an
cx-Becrelary of tbo Treasuiy. Tbo
details of tbo investigation in this mat
ter, and tbo productions in the way of
evidence, aro jealousy guarded in so-
crot at present, but it has been prom
ised that (ho whole affair will bo mado
public within a few days. Prom tbo
present outlook it seems that the Pres

swindle. It is likely that before tbo
close of tbo wook tbo country will
know whether those surmises will take
uuuU definite shape ns to leave no
room for furlhor conjecture."

it torus out that tho presentations and

of Mrs. Forrest iu her suit for divi

the $84,000 alimouy granted by tho

received but$5,000, Mr. O’Connor re
ceiving $10,000, anil Mr. Chase, his
associate, $10,000.
Mr. Metcalf, of Pittsburg, a manu
facturer of cutlery, said to tho Ways

that tho ores of northern Georgia and
Alabama, hud turned out equally as
valuable for the manufacture of tine
cutlery as tho Swedish ore, hitheito
exclusively used. This is very strong
t alimony and means a great doul, so
far as the future of iron manufacture

To Tax Receiver Polk county :
Tho Act of March 2, 1875, requires
Receivers of Tax Returns, each your,
to collect tho “ucrcngo planted foi
tbo preceding year.'’
With this, you will receive tbo*two
blank digcHts for this year's work,
namely, "Crop Produced” for this year
PIcuno use nil diligence to secure
full mid reliable returns, so that your
work will be a fair exhibit of wlmt
tho farmers of your county made last
year. Kuo that every person who
made a crop last year, and every ono
who is cultivating ono this year, is
properly returned. Let no case es
cape your notice. If any person fiils
or refuses to miiko a return ut once
sot down his name, and raako a re
turn for him, and write "Def.” iu tho
margin against his name, to signify
that you have made the returns for
him, and that he did not make it.
Lot every word on tho book bo
written in a very plain hand, so that
ovary name and every figure can bo
easily road. The returns must bo en
tered on the Digests according to tbo
militiu districts, and tho names alpha-
botiaally arranged. Kovory page
must bo footed up; uud the pages of
every district consolidated; ami then
and then the digests must all bn con
solidated into cno "Gouoral Aggro-
grutn.” Tbo whites and negroes
must be entered in separato portions
of tim Digests, and tbo negroes kept
entirely soparuto from whites. Their
returns must bo entered by districts,
and the districts consoldutcd into ono
' General Aggregate,'' tho same us for
tho whites. T hen these two aggre
gates must he added together for tho
'Total iu the county.” * * * *
It is particularly desirable that you
be careful iu collecting statistics of
in grace who are f inning on their own
account, as well us whites. It is im
port,till. to know fully tnd correctly
wlmt this class of our population ;s
doing in the lino of agriculture.
Tho act of March 2, 1876, requires
you to collect Uioko statistics by tho
lath of July, and forward Urn com
pleted work ,to this ^Department by
tha first day of August. List year
tho work of preparing this digest and
blanks after tho approval of tbo Act
2d March—caused thoir delivery
to receivers before the 1st of April i ni
possible, and thus prevented hiiid
from collecting us full returns as they
othorwiso would. (Jonsidoni)g this
and other circumstances more or lo*s
unfavorable, most oi tho returns were
very well mado. This year everything
supplied iu aitiplo time, uud I trust
1 shall have full uud ample returns
from every county, bo that 1 can make
an exhibit to the world of the State
of Georgia.
When the ho Digests aro tilled up,
they must, iu every instaueo, bo re
turned to mo by express, or by private
hands, unless you prefer to send by
mail and prepay full postngo ut the
rate of threo cents for every half
ounce. Very Respectfully,

Papers come to us daily with ac
counts of crowds of pooplo that aro
hastening to the Black hills in search
of gold. Many of those who go aro
totally unfitted for tho work before
them, aud will perish by scores for
went, hardships and cold.
Latest accounts describe these Hills
ns sterile, barran, desolate, with snow
thirty feet deep, aud constant danger
lawlessness and tho war parties who
are desperately defending their pos
sessions.
The hardships to bo borne aro in
audible, all the more when tluro is no
ueed of going to tho Black llills for
gold, when tbo Iiouisiunu .State Lot
tery Company offers $502,500 in Gold
in their seooud golden drawing.
Wlmt need to speud time, money
and risk one's life, when, for $50, any
person can purchase a wbolo ticket
in the LouLiana State Lottery, halves,
quarters, etc., in proportion.
That is a good enough ‘ Blick
llills” for us, and it would bo much
more sensible, if all who were rushing
to tbo barren wilderness to try their
luck hero instead of venturing where,
it' Fortuno is against them, they can
never return. Hour these facts in
mind and not upon them promptly.
Tickets and circulars relative to the
drawing, which takes place on tho
20th, positively, without scaling or
postponement, can be obtained by
writing to tbo main office of tbo Com

homestead on tho specific proporiy
mortgaged, Mid to claim tho same us
a homestead exemption, as llto agent
t f his wifi*, from being subject to that
mortgage fi fa. The 1753 section of
tho Oodo declares that "in this State,
tho husband is tbo bead of tbo fami
ly, uud tbo wife is subject to him ; her
legal civil existence is merged iu tbo
busbuud, except so far as tbo law re
cognizes her separately, either for her
own protection, or for her Inmofit, or
for tbo presci Viilion of public order.’’
Tlio constitution of 1808 declares, that
each bead <>f a family, or guardian, or
trustco of a family of minor children,
shrill be entitled to a huineste id of
really to the vnluo of two thousand
dollars in specie, &o., which, when sot
