After tliis date, March |14th, 1876, all
persons who, prior to the late change, re
ceived their papers at the Georgian Office,
aiSl who still desire to receive them here,
will find their papers at this office, as before.
Alas! Poor Schenck, His Lettle
Emma Mine project has brought him to grief.
Having set sail for Washington, it S3 cur-
really-reported North, that an English vessel
is cruising off New York to interceptSchenck
before he reaches American jurisdiction. Ol
course he is liable to arrest now that he is
no longer minister. Should he escape the
vigilance of the English cruiser, doubtless
when he lands, the House Committee on for
eign afiairs, will take him in charge, upon
evidence already in the possession of said
Committee.
Belknap Under Arrest —Secretary
Belknap under the arrest of Major Richards,
Chief of Police, was bronght into Court on
last Wednesday, when examination being
waived, he gave bond in the sum of $25,000
for his appearance before the courts. Of
course he showed much shame and depres
sion of spirits. The articles of impeach
ment prepared and reported by the judici
ary committee, were recommitted for
amendment, owing to Marsh being at this
time beyond the jurisdiction of the United
States.
The Pierrkpont-Babcock Conspiracy.
—Begins to assume increasing proportions
under the investigation of the seleet com
mittee. The scrutiny of the present House
of Representatives begins to draw Grant
into rather uncomfortable proximity to the
criminal doingsof his high officials. Bristow
doubtless glories over the fact, that Grant's
uncertain attitude only enhances his
chances for the Republican candidacy lor
president: but alas, must feci, when lie con
siders that the circumstances, which would
tend to his making, douhly increases the
chances of the election of the Democratic
nominee, “ how vain are all things here be
low.”
POLITICAL PRESENTATIONS OF
AMERICAN CENTENNIAL
The approaching Centennial -celebration
will doubtless present much, both# as to the
political and material rise aud progress of
the republic of America, within the latter
past of the hundred years of its existence,
that will fill the American heart with pride
and gratitude. But alas, how perfectly
overshadowed will all this be, by the shame
which must necessarily attach to the political
corruptions, which have marked the history
of our country within the past tea years, es
pecially during this Centennial year, and that
too, when with our advancing years, the world
might reasonably expect an equal advance
ment, in governmental, purity and upright
ness. In the announcements of the Centen*
nial exposition, it is stated that arrangements
are being made to have on exhibition, the pa
pers of every State in the Union. Now as
the press contains the data from which must
be made up, the political history of our
country, what an array of disreputable facts,
as to the conduct of our government, will be
presented by the papers of this date, where
by visitors from foreign countries may esti
mate the justice, the purity, the wisdom, the
freedom, the independence and the probable
stability of our republican form of govern'
ment. Will not the facts ;o presented,
showing the unquestionable corruption, the
Csesarisin and the centralizing tendency of
governmental affairs under the reign of the
Grant dynasty, obtaining as they do at this
Centennial period of our existence, be well
calculated to carry the mind back to the
history of the republic of Iimne and its
downfall ? Sucli presentations will not go
fur towards elevating the Standard of our
government, in the opinion of the foreign
world, but perchance, by branding the
dominant party as a set of government plun
ders and coriuptiouists, may to some degree,
in foreign opinion at last, justify the right
of secession, offsetting the charge that we of
the South, were rebels against “ the best
government the world ever saw.”
While Grant and his coadjutors in crime
and corruption have been and are still fur
nishing facts for the Centennial, which will
not only prove their administration the
“black reign,” in the history of our govern
ment but outstripping in point of govern
ment disgrace and degradation, any country
known to us through the history of govern
ments,J let our whole people for the sake
MADISON COUNTY.
—
DANIELSYILLE COURT.
THE PEOPLE AND THE PLACE.
[Editorial Correspondence.)
The staid old county of Madison presents
to the mind of the present day many pleas
ant recollections and charming associations
of the halcyon loug ago. There is some
thing suggestive in the name itself and
upon its very hills, rod, ragged and rocky,
which, in many cases impede the traveler
and baffle the*skill of the fanner, there
seems to linger a venerable memory re
calling the palmy days of ante-bellum times.
For it was to the mineral springs of this
county, that the citizens of the malarial
part of the State would flock in large
numbers when the heat of summer drove
them away from the.r homes and country.
It was here that families would assemble to
enjoy the pure air of Northeast Georgia, it
was here that beauty and fashion would
hold sway, here gayety and mirth wou]^
ed to overwhelm all opposition, and scare
the- Democrats into concession to Hoar’s
amendment. Blaine’s design was to call
out some indiscreet remarks front the Dem
ocratic ride, and then throw the House into
a bar-room melee as he did in the Ander-
sonville debate. But when he had finished,
Lamar rose. Lamar is the coolest man oh
the Democratic side. No taunts can annoy
him. No bullying or insolence disturbs his
equanimity. In reply to Blaine’s frantic
bullying', he cooly began to read the law
govcmtng such cases, together with several
decisions and precedents. He made no
comment by way of preface, except to say
that he would hsow Mr. Blaine to bo utter
ly ignorant of the law, aud utterly unmind
ful of the precedents in regard to the mat
ter," and that before he (Lantar) got
through, he would subject hint (Blaine) to
the ridicule of his opponents and the pity
of his friends. The result was a most com
plete and abject humiliation of the Kenne
bec bully, aud the utter explosion of his
programme. Thu whole affair was admira-
ntle the summer’s hour, here politicians hly managed by the Democrats, mid Mr,
would assemble after Commencement exer- b*amar deserves great credit for the mas-
rises of Frank in College, and discuss the
affairs of the country, or plot the course of
some coming campaign. Madison Springs,
indeed, have been celebrated in their day,
which now, dilapidated and abandoned,
their hotels burned and cabins destroyed,
give no conception of their former prestige
and popularity
At present, Madison county, not nulike
some of its more populous neighbors, is
suffering from the effects of the hard times,
and its inhabitants generally industrious
and thrifty, are feeling the lack of “ hog
and hominy-”
Dauielsvtlle, the county site, which jaunti
ly sits upon a hill about fifteen miles from
Athens, is a place of a few hundred inhab
itants, and consists of some half dozen stores
surrounding a little red court-house, which,
during our visit, was the scene ot the usual
activity and excitement attendant upon
the session of the Superior Court. This
Court seemed to be jogging along with a
pretty full docket, and Judge Pottle with
Solicitor-General Lumpkin, wore their
usual business-like airs. The visiting bar
was well represented by Col’s. Matthews,
of Oglethorpe; Estes, of Hall; Nash, of
Frauklin; Thurmond and Conn, of Clarke.
The principal case on the ducket, seemed
to be the tria of Jackson, a colored school
terly way in which he led the fray. The
expression among the D&noer^s to-night
is universal that Lamar is the 'afest and
most adroit leader that could be selected.

Alas, how fallen, how craven-hearted,
yea, and how subservient to our enemies
purposes, is a Southern Press which will so
continuously unite with the Press of the
North in urging “down” ye Southern Rep
resentatives, and let the contumely of your
political masters prevail. Not as a champi
on, so much of Mr. Hill, but as a South
erner, a Georgian, one who feels that
we as a section have bowed in submission
and in silence during the full period of com
mendable policy and expediency, and indeed
full long enough, without the slightest aj»-
parent good, we cannot but feel sad over
the fact that so many of our Southern, yes,
even Georgia papers, are criticizing Mr. Hill
so severely for defending his native South
against the villianous attacks of the champi
ons of the party, which have recently
developed so much of rottenness and corrup
tion. Why, not Mr. Hill meet these slan
derous political dialribiets as well

Is there more criminality in or any more
harm likely to result from, Mr. Hill’s able,
eloquent, and conclusive vindications of the
South against tbe oppression, the abuse and
the slanderous accusations of the North, the*
vfiliany and corruption of the Radical party,

which are but evidences of their despera

history, but accepting them as an addition
al stimulant to do their whole duty by their
country and rid the Government ot its of

tallest extent. They could do the country
no better service than to continue this work,
and “ fight it out on that line, even if it

go on ; “ let no guilty man escape ” be he

Washington, M§rch 7,-For the first

to-day completely flattened qqt MPelpjjr

This programme was to defeat a resolution
tiom tne Democratic side instructing Mr.
Clytner’s committee not to give any evidence

This would have given tbe two Republicans
