The first battle between the Turks
and Russians has been lbnght at
Teolmrnkson, near Botouin. The
Russians were defeated and put to
rout with a loss of 800 men.
Judge H. M. Spofford has been
elected United States Senator from
Louisiana. He is a Democrat of re
cognized ability, and his election visits
a heavy and, doubtless, final blow to
Radicalism in the long oppressed Peli
can State.
The leading Cincinnati newspapers
are chaffing one another again with
such gentle English as “ liar/’ “ rob
ber,” “ idiot,” “ beastly madness,”
“ hydrophobia,’’ “ lustful brute,’’ etc.,
etc.
The eX'Empress Eugenie, as she
now appears, is thus described by Lucy
Hooper: “ She has grown immensely
stout, dresses in ugly English-made
gowns paints her face pink and white,
black under her eyes, and wears a very
palpable wig of light yellow hair.
The Noi theastern Railroad is now
in a most flourishing and paying con
dition. Having perfected most ad
vantageous freight arrangements with
the new management of the Atlanta
and 11 chmond Air Line Railroad, it is
now destined to contribute largely
towards the future growth and pros
perity of Athens.
The election upon the Constitutional
Amendment which forever sets aside
the bogus bonds of the Bullock admin
istration, takes place on this the
first day of May. This is a most
important election to the people of
Georgia, so let no one fail to cast his
vote on that day for the ratification of
the amendment.
It will not be a very comforting
statement to the colored people of
Georgia to tell them that some of the
Northern capitalists now in our State,
aud who are supposed to he their
friends, favor the establishment of a
whipping-post, on the ground that they
cannot control the negroes as laborers.
We wonder if Wendell Phillips wont
take this as his next text, and deal out
to us of the South such hitter vitupera
tion as will make all he has heretofore
said against us appear as highsounding
praise.
From late dispatches, it seems there
is some rather incomprehensible stir
among the military on our Western
frontier. What does it all mean ? Can
it be that, suice the Sioux war is at an
end, the hungry war-dogs want to stir
op a fuss with Mexico ? This is a
matter for the extra session of Congress
to look into, and if these soldiers on the
frontier have to stir up a fuss in order
to earn their pay, why, just discontinue
the army appropr atioa, and that set
tles it.
There never was known before in the
history of this or any other country
such wonderful shifting of political
position as that which marked the
course of the lateElectoral Commission.
Republicans who, in 1861, inaugurated
war against the Southern States rather
than yield them the right of local self-
government, arguing their case upon
the great principles of States Rights;
while Democrats, to meet the necessi
ties of their case, were so far renounc-
Beyond the Crisis.
That there was an impending polit
ical crisis which for the past ten or
twelve years has seriously threatened
the very foundations of our free gov
ernment, there can he no question.
The resolution to these governmental
difficulties was in either revolution or
a return to those constitutional prin
ciples which, under the Federal
compact, guarantees unto all the
States the right of local self-govern
ment. This crisis has been passed
and since the withdrawal of troops
from South Carolina and Louisiana
there now remains not one of all the
States of this American Union to
which this right is denied. It is true
this result seems hut the re action
from such an invasion of our political
constitution as would inevitably over
throw the civil rights and liberties of
the whole American people, thus
making determined resistance the
cause of him who became President
de facto, in common with every lover
of free, honest aud constitutional
government. It is furthermore true
that the circumstances under which
Governor Hayes was made chief
magistrate of the land will ever fur
nish a black page in our political his
tory. But, should the President
prove that administrative “ wisdom,
justice and moderation ” which is
claimed for him by his friends and
which are the three great homogene
ous essentials to good government, it
may be some consolation to know
that the corrupt partisans and enac
tors of fraud find no sympathy or
support from him who has been
the beneficiary of their corruption.
How astonishing that the Republican
party, which has been a pnrturescent
evil upon the country, increasing and
multiplying fraud and corruption in
every department of government
from the highest to the lowest,
should now bring forth such an
anomolons offspring as a just and
honest administration of govern
mental affairs. As gtrange as this
may seem, let us hope that it is even
so, aud accepting it as a great politi
cal necessity, believe “that heaven
will sometimes aid the madly blind,
to pull upon themselves their own
destruction.”
Thus, in reviewing our present polit
ical condition, we find ourselves in
tiie most anomolons situation of hav
ing to accept an invasion upon our
constitutional lights and liberties, and
yet, in such manner as to avoid estab
lishing thereby a precedent which
may create others or an example
which might justify even more dan-
gerous measures in the future. This,
then, can only be done by that con
tinued, determined and organized
Democratic resistance, which at last
has forced a recognition of those
great protective principles* of right
aud- justice, founded upon the Con
stitution and which must live or die
with it, and which if, persevered in,
will in the near future biing us hack
to that good and honest system of
government which marked the better
days of onr republic.
ycr undoes for his client’s money;
one judge reverses the .decision of
another judge, etc.
2nd, Again, if lawyers could, the
people who have the bills to pay,
cannot. Law and legal processes are
so nearly like the bottomless pit, no
end to them, and so beclouded and
mistified with technicalities, that even
the client who knows his cause to he
just, is almost frightened by the
strange noise they make.
3rd. Legislation, I believe, does
not offer the law to the common at
all; bat it keeps so much on hand,
(an ever-growing monster,) and that
so galvanized with technicalities that
it would he about such a guide to
them, if they had it, as a torch to a
blind man. Thus, the few say to the
many, “ You shall walk -n the dark,
and you stumble, tee yet yon /” So,
if I am not greatly mistaken, the
great mass of the people are held
accountable to laws of which they
are kept in ignorance, and led on,
year after year, by their legal fleecer.
“ Policy.” Who that knows any
thing of the policy of Romanism in
the “dark ages,” shutting oft’ the
light of knowledge, so that the great
mass of the people could he led
on in ignorance, century after cen
tury, buying indulgences and priestly
payers for their departed friends s.»id
to be in purgatory, and yet, fails to see
a similar legislative, legal .policy,
silently, surely working the ruin of
the common people in this country.
God send us a legal, constitutional
Luther, by whom our organic laws
shall be so simplified, that this gigan
tic system of oppression shall collapse,
and that legal rights shall be made
equal rights to all. Who organized
this politico-legal system and keeps
the engine rolling? Lawyer legisla
tion ! Who pays for it ? The people.
To whom paid, and what is the cost ?
I guess that there are one thousand
lawyers in Georgia, and that they
get an average of $5,000 annually,
each. Clients pay it. I guess, again,
that all the courts in the twenty judi
cial districts in Georgia cost the peo
ple $100,000 more, annually And I
guess again, that an average session
of the Legislature, together with the
payment to State and comity officers,
costs, annually, $25,000, making
about fi e and a quarter millions; a
large part of which is paid by the
people for the privilege of living un
der a system of law and legislation
so multitudinous and complex, that
they can neither weigh, measure nor
understamf it. Mr. Editor, I wish
not to be censured as opposed to
good, intelligible laws and necessary
legislation. These, I think we can
not .have, unless orgatiie laws shall
be so modified as to fix constitutional
restrictions that cannot be overrun
by men who seek office for the money
and not for the good of the people.
In my next, I will venture to sug
gest some remedial measures.
West Oconee.
[For the Athens Georgian.]
In your paper of the 10th inst., I
submitted the proposition that we
have too much law, and I now offer
in support of it.a few facts, not so
much in the way of argument, as in
hope to induce others to look, think
and feel the unequal, unjust and ruin
ous oppression that is. and long has
been on us, as alluded to in my first
article. Laws are professedly made
for the good of all, and yet, they are
so made that the great majority of
the people do not, cannot understand
them.
Why? 1st. Lawyers themselves,
who are professionally educated
and practice law as a business, do
not understand-it! Proof—it often
happens that what one lawyer does
for his client’s money, another law-

The Atlanta Constitution.
Under its new management, The Atlanta
Co> BTiTCTiOH has won fbr itself the title of the
leading journal of the south. Its enterprise,
during the recent election excitement, in send
ing correspondents to different portions of the
country, aud its series of special telegrams from
Washington while the electoral commission was
engaged in consuinating the fraud that placed
radicalism once more iu power iu our national
councils, are evidences conspicuous enough to
prove that no expense will be spared to make
Thk Constitution not only a leader in the dis
cussion of matters of public concern, but a
leader in the dissemination of the latest and
most reliable news. There is no better time
than now to subscribe for

Albeit. tlie*e has been a q ati settlement of
one of die most difficult aud dangerous pro
blems of modern federal politics, the discussions
spring therefrom and the rcsnlts likely to eusue
have lost nothing of their absorbing interest.
In addition to this, the people of Georgia arc
now colled upon to settle
The Convention question,
and in the discussion of this important subject
(in which Thk Constitution will take a leading
part) every Georgian is interested. _ If a conven
tion is called its proceedings will find their
earliest and fullest embodiment in the columns
of The Constitution, and this fact alone will
make the paper indispcusable to every citizen of
the state. To be brief,
The Atlanta Dali; Constitution
will endeavor, by all the means that the pro

and necessary to hold ita pluce as a loader of
southern opinion and os a purveyor of the latest
