Lumpkin Independent: On Mon
day of this week a negro giilon the
farm of Mr. J. Leonard Burks was
dangeronly shot. The particulars
are about as follows: A negro boy on
the farm was hunting robins, when
this giil came up the road. He was
trying to shoot a robin when lie re
marked to the girl, “If you scare
that bird I’ll shoot you.’’ The little
girl said. ‘Shoo bird,’’ when the
robin flew away, mid the boy imme
diately discharged his gun at the
giil. 't he load of heavy duck shot
took effect in her si oulder and came
near tearing it bom lit r body. The
girl was attended by Dr. W. F. WIN
son, who said it was tho worst wound
(1 the kind be bad ever witnessed
The shoulder was a mass of shatter

WILL TllE EXTRA SESIOK IJE
A LEGAL ONE.
The question ns to tho legality til i
the adjourned Mission of the Icgi-da
Lire is being ng t iled by some of the
newspaper correspondendents. Tie
adjournment to meet again in July
m.\t, is not without precedent. It
was during the adjourned term in
July 1879 that most important legis
lation was enacted. During this
terra Goldsmith was impeached; l’.cn
froo was arraigned; the Rat'road
Commission created, and various
othor very important measures adopt
ed. Men of legal ability and long
expelienoo have agreed upon the le
gality of a recess, and we do not
think our readers need loel much
apprehension on ti c subject. We
give place to the tollowing paragraph,
however, from a cDrrespomb-nt of
the Barnesvt lc Gazette, as it will be
read with interest:
‘•The Legislature having taken n
recess to inert .1 u'y next, let’s see
what authority for such a meeting,
and as Dr. G. M. McDowell says,
deal in stubborn facts. The funda
men to 1 l,w of Georgia, which is tbe
Constitution, in section 4 h, para
graph 3<l, says: ‘The first meeting "f
the General Assembly, alter the rati
fication ol this Constitution, shall be
on tne first Wednesday in November,
1878, and biennially thereafter on the
same day until the day shall be
changed by law, but no hing herein
contained shall be construed to pre
vent the Governor from calling an
extra session of the General Assem
bly before the first Wednesday in
November, 1878, if, in his opinion,
the public good ahull r quire it.
Bar. 4th - A majority of each lious.-
shall constitute a quorum to transact
business, but a smaller numb: r may
adjourn from day today, and compel
the presence ol its absent members,
as each house may provide. I’ar. 6:
No session of tie General Assemb y
shall continue longer than lortv days,
nnltss by a two-thirds vote of the
whole numb-r ol <ach house.” I
there anything herein contained in
the Con.-titution authorizing a recess
of the General Assembly of Georgia
to meet again in a succeeding year?
Take tho lettering of the Constitu
tion. No recess about nr in it, but
: the meeting of the General As-cmbly
shall be biennial. The words ‘shall
be’ is a strong and positive term.
Well, if they meet next July, and
make any laws, vvi 1 thiy be legal or
binding? I think not, for they will
not be made in annual session. Can
they draw on the State of Georgia
their per diem and mileage pay? I
dou’t see any law for such,’’
PETER'S PRA YER.
It was one of the shortest prayers re-
in the Bibie—only three words
—and yet il brought an immediate an
swer:
What was it in those words, “Lords
save me,” that brought an immediate
and effectual response?
It was in humble prayer. Peter knew
that lie was beginning to sink—that lie
was utterly helpless in the midst of an
gry waves which were ready to swallow
him up, and he was willing to acknowl
edge his helplessness. In that sudden,
sharp cry for help he did acknowledge
it.
It was a sincere prayer for just the
thing that he wanted. Those three sig
nificant words went exactly to the point
of his need. He wanted to be saved,
and without any vain repetition of un
meaning words, he cried, “Lord, save
me!”
If he had bad time enough he might
have sard, “O, thou omnipotent Ruler
of tho Universe, in thine infinite com
passion condescend to stretch out thine
Almighty arm for the succor ol one of
thy feeble children.” Butsuch a prayer
could not have received a better answer
than the simple, pointed one that he
did ut:er., —American Messenger.
TAKA TION.
Tim law of Taxation is universal
Its justice is in its equality. It is
the hardest money to pay in alt tho
catalogue of expenditures, but its
' benefits are reciprocal in its protec
tion of life, liberty and property. Not
withstanding that the law in Georgia |
requires the giving in of all taxable
property at its true value, the penal
ty of dereliction is not certain, conse
quently the amount of evasion ami
duplicity prncticedjis alarmingly fre
quent. and d-iecreditable to the moral
character of. unau. If propert yin ev
ery instance was given in at its true
market value, the burdens of
taxation on tbe tax payers would be
light. But bow it is to be accom
plished is a mytery beyond finding
out. Human nature is peculiar.—

TbeMayor andCotincd of WestPoir.t,

before the U. S. Commissioner on a
charge of having intinvdated Voters at
the recent municipal election. Tbe At
lanta Post-Appeal thus tells bow it a'l
happened: '"On the day of elei ton
there was two candidates for Mayor,viz:
E. F. Lanier and VV. L. Williams. T here
was considerable excitement incident to
the contest, and on the morning of the
election,after the managers were chosen
and She voters assembled at the polls,
some of the voters were challenged hv
friends of the Lanier party. This caused
a commotion among the friends of the
respective candidates, anil some of ibe
voters left the polls without casting
their ballots. At tVis juncture it is
said Mr. Williams notified the managers
that be withdrew from the race and for
them not to vote for him. The result
was that Mr. Lanier received ICI votes
and Mr. Williams received 15 votes,
There were ten other voles cast for him,
which tho managers permitted to be
withdrawn. Mr. Williams and his per
sonal adherents denounced the election
as a fraud and refused to- participate in
it. Mr.Williatns then came beforeCom

and which is doubtless entirely ruined
ere this. There ban been no bottom

also a poor business. Well, a late

Bad State of Affairs.—The
Eastman Times thus bewails Un
state of affairs in that section of the
“mors! vineyard:’’
The rains continues. The roads
are washed arid mircy, the woods
are Kitten, the creeks are swollen
the cows are dying, and the voting,
iambs ditto. Farmers are behind in
their preparations for another crop,
hands are scarce and scarcer are
those ol them who are disposed to
make contracts. These are among
the many complaints that we daily
hear from our country friends who
come to town.
The case of the State versus A. J.
Tlrorna®, for the murder of John Alford,
on the first day of January, was tried in
Bartow Superior Court last week. On
that day an election for Justice of the
Peace and Bailiffs was held at Euharlee,
and these two were there. Late in the
evening the two men started home to
gether, Thomas living intoxicated. Al
ford seemed much concerned about bis
friend’s welfare, and was taking him
home much against Thomas’ will. Al
ter they had proceeded a short dislance
from ih village, Thomas drew his pistol
and fired twice;, the first ball taking ef
fect between the right eyes, and the
o.ber in tho’right breast. The poor fel
low lived only three minutes after lie
was shot. On the next day (Sunday)
Thomas was arrested without any resist
ance whatever,.and lodged in jail. Last
Monday bis case came up before court.
Tbe jury rendered a verdict of guilty,
and recommended to tbe mercy of the
court. The Judge sentenced the pris
oner to- tbe penitentiary for life. The
prisoner seemed very much unconcern
ed, and all 1 through the trial he display
ed wonderful coolness. The murdered
man’s wife and five lit la children were
in the court room during tbe argument
of the case.
