RAILROAD NEWS,
The manager* of the August A
Rod Ctißttsnooßsi road are not
Rauch on talking, but the follow
ing will shew that they ate doing
something all the aaine:
Chattanooga, January B.—The
Augusta and Chattanooga Kail
road Company ia receiving bids
for 15,000 tons of steel rails to lay
tjie track from Augusta to Oains
ville. This is considerably over
half the entire line. The bids
eall for the delivery of 1,000 tons
within silty days, and balance as
soon thereafter as possible. A
force of 500 hands is now at work
pushing the line rapidly. The
Roane Iron Company, of this
city, is reported to be the suc
cessful bidder on the rails.
OongreM Gone Wild.
The latest thing we have seen
of the American Congress that
betokens insanity is the action of
the house iu passing a pension
bill. This kill proposes to pension
every soldier that served in the
Union army when he reaches that
point in life when he is physical
)y indisposed to work and there*
by gain a living.
We want it understood that we
are in favor of pensioning the
disabled soldiers of this country
who (ought to save the govern
ment, but this whole sale, insane
and nnbridled raid upon the
treasury iv an outrage upon the
tan-payers of this country. We
favor sensible legislation to foster
the adheraute of the government,
but when a few sore-headed pol
kicians barter the people’s money
in order to eatcli the soldier vote
ef the land, it ie time the
pevple call a halt with such so
called statesmen. Such reckless
and wild schemes as this should
be set down on by the people,
whan unscrupulous demagogues
make it a hobby for office. The
people are the sufferer* and they
should see to this unwarranted
attack upon the coffers ef the
government.
A GOOD HOVE.
At the Ute session of the Leg
ielatore • committee of that body
was appointed to investigate the
present public school system, its
operations, and its defects. Tue
committee is to report next sum
mer at the adjourned term and
that body will take steps to rem
edy, by prouer legislation, the
present lame aoliool law. We
have always been of the opinion
that the law as it now stands
should be so amended as to al
low communities to vote a lax
upon themselves to support a six
or ten months school, or to lev)
a tax by a general law < f suffi-
cient force that when combined
with the present income, the
public term would be s:x months
Mislead of three as it now is.
These little one-horse three
month schools run by the State
are a standing reproach, and its
defects se patent as to entail
ridicule upon those who are re
sponsible for its lax manage
ment We do not mean that the
school officers are respousiblo lor
Ms shortcomings, but the law is
lame that makes no more ample
provision lor the education of
the vast army of Georgia's youths
We sincerely hope the summer
sittings of this Legislature will
result iu a solution of this prob
lem worthy that body, and cred
itable to the State.
The action of the County Beard
of of this county at its
last meeting in allowiug commu
nities to change their time of the
public term *o as to conform to
an arrangemont for a five month*
school was a very wise step by
that body. In Mountaintown aid
Cartecay districts Ibis change of
the system it seems to us would
be very desirable. Tnese com
munities have probably better
facilities for a winter school and
by a little extra fund from their
eitisens they could maintain flour
iebiog schools every winter. W*
hope all the districts of the coun
ty will accept the liberty offered
by the board and establish schools
at once for a five or six months
siege.

Commissioner Cneman, the in
cumbent uuder the new Admin
istration, more, than any ol his
predecessors, succeeded in im
pressing upon Ihe public mum
the importance ol this depart
ment and its capacity for useiul
iiets. The legislation just ac

sidered thereiore, in the ualure
ol a compliment to hia tfficiem
management, and the President
in looking about for a uow mem
ber of his Cabinet, will have lit
tie difficulty iu tiiidiug Ihe right
man.
Tue passage of Ihe bill elevai-
Hlf tint Agriculture Department
to Executive importance, was a
very appropriate celebratiou ot
the Farmer’s Cougress now in
session in Washington, at the
Agriculture DepaJtmeiit. Tue
tanners have been discussing the
proposed Interstate commerce
bill, so long pending in tbe Sati
ate, and a majority ot them favoi
Federal interference lor Ihe pro
tection of the people. A lively
debate was provoked relative to
the long and short haul section,
and delegates Irom the North
sud South were opposed to each
oilier as to Ihe policy which
should prevail The debate look
a very wide range, but one sen
timent was uppermost with all,
and that was that an Interstate
Commerce bill was a National
nesessity.
The most notable debate of the
week iu Congress was that over
the Anti-Polygamy bill. Dele
gate Caine, as the representative
of the M.irmons, was attentively
listened to first, while he made a
long argument in belialt of his
people. He sketched the settle
ment of Utah by the Mormons
depicted the prosecution in
which they had beau subjected,
and eulogised then for their in
dustry, intelligence and honesty.
He appealed to the House lo con
sider the bill. Ha said religious
bigotry was arrayed against (be
Mormons; political necessity,
oaiit, hypocrisy, and all kindred
Pocksniffianism joined in the hue
and cry. Baseless calumnies.
slander and unmitigated false
hoods were constantly dissemi
nated through the plailorm, the
pulpit and the press,these m g tty
engiues tor tile manufacture i
public seutimout.
Mr. Craine instated that time,
the corrector ol all evils, would
right wroug, if wrong it were ;
that the fiat of the Eternal bad
already declared that the last
vestige of Mormonism shall be
swept away by the peaceful
progress of events if it js not fit
to survive. Us closed with a
plea to the men who had freed
the negro slave from bondage,
who loved liberty aad cherished
the institutions of our country,
that they would not consign his
constituents to inhuman slavery.
Representative Bennett ot
North Carolina also believed that
the Mormon problem would re
solve itself; would yield to pa-
tient treatment at the bands ot
the American people. The bill
he said, did violence to the basic
principles of American govern
ment.
Others were drawn into the
discussion, and Uon. Randolph
Tucker, of Va., closed.the debate.
Ue aaid he did not care what a
Mormon beliavsd, but he must
not put his belief into acts that
infringed the rights of any other
man. Polygamy waa a crime by
eyery stale in Clirisieudom. Ev
er since Christ interpreted the
Judaic law and gave out. “There
fore shall a man leave father and
mother and cleave unto his wife
and they twain"—"they twaiu”—
“add not a whole bundle”—“ever
aince Christ uttered ibat senti
ment, all Christian nations had
adopted muuogamy.

Hided whisper against Ihe char
acler ol a virtuous female. You
sav you don’t believe it, but you
will use your influence to beai
upon Ihe false report, and pass it
ou the current. Strange creat
ures are mankind I How many
hearts have bled by a whisper!
Uow many benevolent deeds are
chilled by a shrug of tbe shoul
der I How many individuals have
been stunned by a gentle myste
rious liiul I How many chaste
bosoms have been wrung with
grief by a single nod 1 How many
graves have been dug by a false
report 1
You will pass the slander
along! You will keep it above
ihe waier by a wag of the tongue
when you might sink it forever.
Deal toy the passion lor telling a
tale, we pray. L' B p not a word

“The proper iliing in girls this
year is dashing and straight and
strong,” writes a New York cor
respondent of the Philadelphia
Press. “She greets mankind
with an impressive stare as she
si rides along the street with her
chin in tlie air, her shoulders well
back and her arms swinging In
and fro. The clinging girl wiili
lender eyes, the romantic girl
with her yearning glare, the do
oieiic girl with the purring
voice, the brilliant giri with her
turbid French, the snuggling girl
with her artlui smiak, and the
girl who clung to the skirts ol
mama—they are gone ; all gone.
They went away in s flutter with
timorous screams at the snort ol
the engine and the rush of the
burly world. Now, they’ve come
back, but they’re not the same.
Instead there’s an army ot lofty,
gay, intrepid, mettlesome, dash
ing girls, who awagger abroad
witb delicious feminine audacity,
and who have brought the breeze
of the mountain top the salty
flavor of the ocean’s edge, and
the buoyant air of the Berkshire
hills into ihe very heart of dim,
dusty, and stale New York.
