EANKIi UPTCY,
The number of bankrupts U on the
iuoreams and is likely to eontinuc So for
IHu remainder of the *yetfr. The lower
House of Congress has repealed the
bankrupt act, by a largo majority, the
repeal to take eoee! January Ist 1817,
and it is thought probable that the Sen
ate sill take similar action. If the ac
tion ot the llonte is oonoumd in by tho
Senate, it is likely that our bankrupt
onirpj will have a perfect Hood of busi
m.-** lor sometime to coins.

NO VOLUNTEERS WANTED. i
Tbe editor of the Atlanta Constitution
k*a nswatly received so many applion
tlons f'.rr editorial positions, that ho has.
dMrnd It proper to notify the public,
through bit paper, that lhe r e are no va
cancies on the Constitution's staff, and
none likely to occur. -
To our mind this is ono of the most
•tnkiDg proofs of hard times ihatwe have
)'Ct Seen. It ox cites but little surprise to i
aee men abandon the professions for the
plow, or leave tire store for the field,
bot men are Indeed despetWC when they
testify their willingness to rusli madly
and recklessly into journalism. “Unea
sy lies the bead that wears a crown,” is
an old maxim, and wo aro tempted to
manufacture another— empt is the 1 a id
that holds a pen. The fact is, very few
men make good editors. Tha true edi
tor requires a haopy eombim iton of nuts
and l*lso\ rarfy bias and thorough train
log whio t m beyond the reach of the
mere amatc nr.
The faot that a man has failed at nt ar
ly everything else is not a sufficient qual
ification lor journalism, although many
people worn to think and apt open this
assumption. The editor has a hard road
iff travel, and his dollars and dimes are
harder to oolleot than an v other mortal's.
People In search tl bomb-proofs during
during the hard timos wiil do well to
make a note of this,
——
WHATS IN A NAME?
It seems that them is a good deal in a
name* sometimes—nt least it has so
turned out m the case of Dr. J. P, Ham
bletoo. The facts ape aboutas hollows :
Dr. Hambletoc, formerly a citizen of
Atlanta, and once editor of the Sottlh.
. " Confederacy of that city, reoently
obtained the position of clerk Congress
ional Committee on. Ways and Means,
This alone was sufficient to excite B
pnbliean envy, and certain parties com
meneed wvcaugaiiitg the Doctor’s re-
cord. Among o ber things the charge
waa made in the New York 'lribune
and other papers, that liaihblclon had a
son, born in Georgia, but new dead,
who was named J. Wilkes Booth, after
the assassin of Lincoln. Dr. flamble
fffn denied the charge, admitting, how
ever, trial Ida son was named John
Wilkes, tbf I titer btfng a fami'y name, j
Other evidence came to light,- snd a
mongtkher things an obitrary notice, in
which the dead child was mentioned as
J. W. B. Hmnbleion. The matter has
finally resulted in the following note:
Wasiiikototu, February 10.—To Dr.
J. P, Hainbleton, clerk ot the Ways
and Meant Committee :—Tlie charge so
often made and so often, denied by you
that you had named a aon alter the as
sassin of Mr. Lincoln, I have until now
wholly disbelieved. Recent develop
ments which show your son to have
leen unified, or recognised by the name
bl J. W. B. Ilamblctou, gives at least a
semblance of truth to the charge. With
the slightest appearance of the truth of I
such a charge, I have but one duty to
par form, and that is to accept your res
ignation offered soma time ago, which 1
do hereby, lteapeclfully yours,

P AYNK'B PAH ACM A.
Hon. Ilcnry B r Payne, of Ohio, has
proposed a financial scheme that bids
fait to pass into history as the financial
compromise of 1876. It bids fair to
weld the hard money, soft money and
resumption democrats iulo one compact
consistent, and indomitable party on the
overshadowing subject of the finances.
U will Ui of eourse the result ot mutual
comjiromise and concession, and it is
difficult to say which wing of the party
will yield the moat. Ail seem to be
satisfied that it is the best policy that
can be inaugurated under the circum
stances. Messrs. Thurman, Bayard and
Eaton will support it, and so will the
greenback senators, and all shades of
opinion between.
The phtn is briefly this :
1. A repeal of the present resumption
act,
2. Tho establishment of a staking,
fund, this sinking fund to be used tor
ukiiiiatc resumption without contraction
of the present VO I u too of pafper cw ren
cy. *•
3. No tateifercncc with the Rational
banking system, as il exists,, with a pro
vision, however, prohibiting a renewal
ot the charter of the banks.
There should and could be no com
promise in regard to the repeal of the
resumption act. It should bo wiped out
without reservation or qualification.
Kvt ‘".ii lu . b . o!,, l l " t '■*, V T” v ~‘ w
pwittroTTB■ vOugressTostop tlie disastrous
experiment ot forced resumption. Its
carefully prepared memorial urges a re
peal of the act because resumption iu
the t ; nie named is impracticable. The
metm ridists pronounced it “a standing
meunoe against all business enterprise,
all oi deratatnfmgs involving the use of
money.” When New York cries out
against the aot it is certainly time lor
its utter repeal. The country surely fa
vors that plank of Mr. Bayne's bill.
The sinking fund is to consist oi coin,
and i8 to go 011 uqtii about thirty per
cent, of the paper currency j s acoumu
laled. l't'e present volume of impel
.money would be retained in - active o-r
--oulatiou. It proposes to stop the present
preoessof coulraclion, while it Indicates
a mode ol resumption in the future that
will not work injury to the present iu
terest of the country.
Tire third feature/ 0 f tho new p’.vi
will be hard to swallow in the Smith and
West, for it proposes only a limitation
of the bank monopoly. But when it is
remembered that tlie -charters of the
banks will begin to expire in 1883, and
that nearly three fourths of them will
expire-before 1690, it has uot so bid a
look. The banks should not bo driven
bodily into a support of the rt'publioau
parly. Besides, there is a question ot
vested rights in the way of a different
policy, and it is therefore held by the
best men of the party that any violent
Legislature interference with the nation
al banking system would be alike impo
litic and impracticable.
The en' ire subject has been referred
to a committee of thirteen, consisting of
nine representatives and four senators,
with instructions to report at the next
meeting of the democratic members.
This meeting will be held next Thurs
day night I hey will doubtless report
Mr. Pay tie’s bill, although some minor
points are yet to be adjusted. All ap
prehensions of ad vision ot tho demo
era tta party in Congress ou the financial
question tuny now be considered at an
end. It will soon present a solid front
on this subject, and success in the com
ing struggle begins to loom grandly up
The senate may reject the flew plan, but
tire Democratic party can safely appeal
to the people on the proposed basis.

A correspondent of the Atlanta Her
aid says-that a tract of country known
as the Diamond Belt extends through
-Cobh county, having Marietta in the
centre ot m its northern border, from
whence it extends five miles in the di
rection of Atlanta, and east and west
fifteen miles. Of late years no gems
have been brought to light, although at
one time some fifteen years since, quite
a number were discovered, the total val
uo of which amounted to a fortune.
Great quantities of feldspur have been
found, and traces of topaz and amethyst
occasionally occur iu the quartz. Mr.
King has of late discovered a valuable
cbrystaline deposit, and in secret is en
deavoring to discover precious stones ;
some of the specimens which he exhib
its are remarkably splendid.

Tho Dalton Citizen says tljat Gov.
Smith stands the best chance.
The Ellijay Courier says- that North
Georgia has determined to have Gen.

The Gartorsviile Express wants tho
Governor to oome from North Georgia.
Tlie Milledgeville Union & Recorder
fears the “Atlanta ring," and asks the

The riavannah News, thinks that the’

The Auguata Constitutionalist says :
Mr. Norcross raado an address before
a Republican Convention, at Atlauta,
recently. Retorting upon Toombs, he
said: “We are told that tho’fpresent
constitution was made by scalawags and
thieves. Well, let them off. We know
that $300,000 has gone out of the
Treasury of Georgia. Who are tli

The passage by a large majority in
the House of the bill to repeal the Bank
ruptcy laws will excite some surprise by
its suddenness and the absence of de
bate. The demand for the repeal is said
to come chiefly from the creditor class.
The system under the present Bankrupt
cy iaws is, however, satisfactory to nei
ther debtors nor creditors. It is a
frightfully expensive method of winding
up business, and where small estates are
couoorned little or nothing remains after
•he fees and expenses of the process are
paid.
Mr. Bowen's offer to tell all he knows,
