THE RECORD, CEJMK'mWJV, OA., JUNK 1, 1870 Tho Dubcrmrforlal Outlook. If (lio exproBaioUH of tlio proftn in ovorjr w.ctioii of the Stuto i« any in<3!- calioti ns to who in tlio moht popular camlidaUi for govoruor ut tlio ap proaching election, General Colquitt will certainly bo tlio lucky mun. Wo havo hoard l>qt fow in 1 1j{h n ation ox- prom thoir profi rucoa, but wo boliovo Colquitt ia tlio most popular in this Hoction. Wo will copy a f-w expren- niouH from pupero in diflen nt Hectionii. Tlio Dal to u Enterprise Buys : “Thu goiiHiil lone of tlio Georgia prenu in- dicatoa that Golquitt is tl:o choice of the people for governor.'' Tbo Canton Georgian says, "wo don’t know what everybody in tbo county Ihinka about tlio various candidates for the nomi nation for governor, but wo have heard many expires then]solves in fa vor of Gen Colquitt." This from the Columbus TitucH : “We believe from tbo expression of opinion from our ex changes, that Gen. Colquitt will now take rimiUi's place iir the strongest among the candidates, and (hut if any one of them cun obtain a clour mejor- ity of the dele gates on the ilrat bal loting, lie will bo the man." Up wards of fifty p/q.orH, to our knowl edge, give expressions similar to the ubovo, and wn don't know how many others entertain the name Held knouts. Ariosi or i:\-Tnm Hirer Jones. Wo find the following in the daily Constitution of May 24lli : Yeit< idny the grand jury of Fulton county, composod of the followingcit- seoiih : lCr Lawshc, foreman, Jus. 11. Holland,Geo. 11 Foico, Angus C. How ell, Charlos H Thomas, Johu Lynch, Thus A Olive r, Jus A Harris, Inane 1) Upshaw, Janus Ltekiey, Frederick II Hohuuck, Lemuel 1*. Grunt, Jr., Heu- ben H Hutchins, Jus L Thompson, Win A Jones, Guo F Smith, James II Suavity, Willis E Hagan, Wm Shep ard, found a true bill against John Jones, Jvq., the Lie treasurer of the Slate of Georgia. The bill covers 25 pages of ligul cap paper, and embrac es acme bn If a d jr.en counts, and iu in effect a chut go that tho accused ille gally withholds from the State of Georgia the sum >f $110,271 81 of iiioiu yH coining into Ida possession au such oilleor, and which sums ho failed to pay over within ton days after de- niund. The lndiutiuont was returned 'dnto court Monday evening, and iin- .iuedialely a bench warrant for the ur- M o(. of AD. Junes was iSBiiod by Judge IVoplon. Dopuiy Slnriff Cook took thin in charge, and at dude, on tho corner Marietta and JYaehtree streets, made the arrest. Mr. Join's had re ceived notice of tliu v arrant, and was not amplified iu his arrout, although great ly nstoniuhed til-the fuel of I ho grand jury having indicted him. We published a communication Inal, wee k on “Rotronohnu'nt and Reform," and on the question of “Reform" tho writer suggested tho substitution of iho nominating convention,by primary elections Tor candidates for tlio differ ent oflUoa. Tho Romo Courier sayH the way to avoid a “scrub" race this year, "is to have a piiumiy t lection for candidate!'. Let all who choose enter the field for nomination and all atido the ret nil. Hy this means all individual aspirations can bo indulg ed and tlio organisation of Iho party maintained." Give us your views on this question, brother Williuglmm. Rev. Mr. llendtrsou, n young man just from tho l*tosb>teriaa Theologi cal Seminary at Columbia, S. 0., preached nt the Presbyterian church iu this place on last Sabbath, morn ing nud evening, lie is a native of Canada. Tho Athens Watchman says tho wheat ciop, which in timt section was so promising a fortnight ago, is now likely to be heiiuiuly damaged by lust and the fly. The rust is not liki ly to damage il bo much as tho insect just, being confined tntiruly to tho blade. Tho original Masonic apron worn by Gen.

I Much to the surprise of oveiy o who Inis watched similar cnhgreKsion- rd inv( fitlgutioin, tho committee ap pointed to investigate tho Freodman’i Hank, have brought in ono of the most scathing reports over prefcnled to congress. Tho report says if the very idoa of tho Hank was not conceived in fraud, the Hunk itself settled down into ono of the most gigantic swin dles. Its charter was gotten up by J W. Alvord, who hod proved a fuiluro in both luy and clerical pursuits, and who so drew the charter that tho ofli- cers had the right to do about ntt they pleased, while the depositors were left almost entirely defencelets. 'The whole institution was simply a “confidence game, ’under the name of tho “Freed man’s Saving and Trust Company.' When tbo Committee attempted to ex amine tho books, leaves wore found torn out in places, now ones inserted iu others, and in some places the leaves wore so pasted and sealed to- g» tin V as to defy ull attrmpts to get them apart, while tlio accounts wi re one muss of falso entries, that defied all attempts to make anything out of I hem. Hundreds of thousands of dollars woro advuncud on certificates and sleeks that woro not worth four cents a husl.ol; immouso hudij were loaned without any security whatever; in fact the depositors had I heir mon ey divided up among a sot of thieves as fust as it whs received. Tho ofll- ct is went so far as to send out a set of men to travel through tliu South under-t he pretense of leaching the ne groes, but really to get them Lo send their i itrnings to the bank as fust as possible. For the fust lime this session, the President’s veto 1ms been overruled by Congress. A bill passed both houses to pay a curtain party a sum of about $104, and the President, act ing under tlio advice of two of his cabinet officers, refused to sign it. Roth 1 [buses then passed it over his head. A bill hn.i just beon introduced in to Congress to give the bodies of nil who may din in Jails, hospitals and nsylnuin iu this District to the medi cal colleges, with tho \i«w of protect ing the grave yard;. Am this, if tho bill becomes a law, will tfiuClUnlly do aw».y with giving home of un one more resurrection than wo want, tho bill finds great favor iu the District. Most of us live in hopes that Gabriel will go out on a litLJo “toot* on* his own iieooiiiit, and loose his horn, and thus wo escape even tho filial recur red ion, let nlotto iho one wo are upl to get at the hands of the students. Tho Sop ate', or ns wo reverently term it In re, the “Fog Dank," is still ou- gagrd in tho wruuglo over the ju risdiction in the Belknap ruse. The debates ifro carried on with dosed doors, so with the exception of tbo big guns that are IIrod off to let uu outsiders know they ato still alive and "blowii g” away, wo know noth ing, and oaro dill leas ub.mt what is said. Evc-iy honest man in tho coun try knows that a rascal, who 1ms brought bInline and disgiaec upou tho nation, 1ms been caught,and if there is any punishment for him, we want him to get it. Whether it is wolth while that bo much time should bo lukoii up iu ‘vliiu music" ia a matter of doubt. New rumors me tlurktl each day iu regard lo Belknap. Il in now said that ho is beginning to show his tooth, and says that if they do decido to try him, la will kicp the whole body hue all summer, as lie has a large number of witnesses to examine. The coiumittoo appointed to inves tigate Minister Schriivk’s inunction with the Emma Mine swindle have hud their report ready for sc vend days, and Would have grin tiled it to the House Ufuii now, but'huvu been bolding it bi.ik at Sehenek’s liquid, in Older to nlli w him to send them his reply to the dice si borough letter. His 11 ply hits been received, and it on ly places him in u wuise light than before. The uport will be miulo to day, censuring Sehenek severely, but exhomrating him from all intentional fraud. Whin piofcssionnl politicians of las age slid i \| ern nee allow them- solus to l e bo igtigionsly “deceived," tln n CVngici.h Hionld send wet nurses abroad with tin ui to keep the wool from growing ou r their eyes.

The Griffin News says some of the finest wheat patenea about town arc info.- ted with myriads of lice similar iu uppiarui.eo to oi.bhuge lice.
