GEORGIA LEGIhLATIRE.
This body adjourned on the 13th, of
ter a seaxion of just seventy days.
On adjourning their respo. tire bodies,
appropriate and patriotic speechu were
made by Judge Gibson, President of the
Senate, Hon Thos. Hardeman, speaker
of the House.
The Homestead bill, tnd the bill allow
ing the redemption of property sold under
execution within two yeurs, were both ve
toed by the Govenor, and failed to com
mand a two-thirds vote upon the recon
sideration.
Stealing.
The old practice of stealing, by ihe
Freodoea, seems to bo pretty general y
kept up. Bmoke bouse and corn cribs are
tolled heavily in some localities. One rnan
found hia corn mi sing one morning not
long since, and the door locked.' It wa<
afterwards discovered that some negroes
bad a hunch of fn’se keys for such purpose
Biting dog are being put out of the way
by poison so that they cannot make a fuss
At night. Unless severe measures are
speedily resorted to, this system of taxa
tion will become too heavy to be borne.
Let the “Freedoes” be taught that some
thing more than a repremund or a
licks is the penalty for stea’ing.
The Telegraph.
' The work of constructing a telegraphic

of growth—and almost e r ery tree will an

to note tho progress of the important work,
and hope all will see the great benefit to
be derived by our community from an of

Sl'.spjensio.v or tub Hahsas C oitrue in 1
Ireland —We learn from late New York
dispatches that the suspension of the habeas 1
oorpne in Ireland was received with very
general satisfaeibn in England. I*s first
effect was nneasiness and depression, but
the vigor the government restored
confidence, and Lad a faiorable i flfjct. The
act authorizes the arrest and deteD'i n in
custody until tne first of March, 1867, of
any person suspected of conspiracy. The
chief object of the measure is believed to be
te enable the suthoiitics to deal with nu
merous FeniaD emiß ; aries from America,
who are represented as scattering in all di
rections.
The police are acting vigrrouffy and make
'Dgmany arrests. The mi'itary forces in
Ireland are beiog strongly reiuforccd from
England. It is reported that Sir Hugh
Bose, the commander id Irelan !, has deman
ded further instructions from the Govern
ment. Four sergeants of regiments at Lim
•rick have been placed under arrest
Among the latent arrests were General John
H. Gleeson aud his brother, Joseph Gleeson,
of the Federal army. The police were fired :
on from the houses in Tipperary, where it
was supposed drilling was in progress. I
One officer was severely woun led and some
of the men were arrested. P J. M. O’Don- ‘
nel, supposed to be the Head Center ir Dub
lin, had been arrested. Order continued to
be maintained.
C3T Almost every paper which ree.chew
ue from the North, pays the Ban
ner, is filled with accounts of arson, rape,
robbery and murder. No particular com
ment is made upon them They aro the
incidents of crowded cities, the disband
ing of Poops and dismantling of mili ary
establishments, the 8- ason and the times.
But when now and then a man is killed in
the South, or a robbery is committed, a great
political offence is made out of it, and it is
arrainged as the evidence ot “disloyalty.”
And yet there are fewer aets of violence
now recorded in the South than ever before
in the history of the c" untry.

Ms?sns. Editors :—The subject of vac
cination has already received proper notice j
ut your hands; its importance to the com- !
munity however, will p limps jus ify a few
additional remarks in relation to i'. Ed-j
ward Icnner, a German, first t< sted jm<!
introduced vaccination in England in 1788.!
The success of his practice ns a preventive!
of small pox, soon became so evident that j
tho English Pallium nt in acknowledge |
mentof the great benefit of his discovery j
to the country, awaid.d to him a gift l| fj
30,000 pounds sterling, and vacciu tion
has ever since been prac iced in all civilized
countries and in many pans of Europe has
been enforced gene, ally by more or 1 as
i ignrous laws. j
If we take in consideration that snu.Hi
pox is one of the most horrible and fatal
diseases known, while cow ]!ox is quite a
mild and never rffingen us affection, w hich
hardly deserves the name of a disease and
sti'l'protects against the former either com
pletely or to such a degree as to make the
former w here its occurs in a vaccinated in
divi 'ual excessively mild, we sho Id cer
tainly feel thankful to Providence fi r the
posession of such a great means of pio
tection ami should m l f-il t» avnl our-!
selves of its be- efits by a vigorous and
correct practice of it in all eoninrun ties, j
parti, ulurly at a tme like th« present
whe’ e the disease exists and almost daily j
cal! for victims on so many different local
ities. In O'der to obtain the benefits of
this measure it must be practiced properly,-
and the idea that any t ody can vaccinate;
| who chooses to do so is very erroneous.-—i
[it is true tin* j rnre sos va<*cinnation with-.
bi-in itself is very simple and easily |
! perform! and but to determine whether the
! pustules produced are complete and genu
! ine cow pox, is a much more difficult mat
ter, and this alone establi hes the desired
protection against stnub pox. Thu getm-
I cinatingphysician must notice the effect of
J his vaccinations at, different p liods so as
sure himself of their genuineness, or else he
mtiy do harm ty t-ausirtg the false assu
rance of securi y where it (h es not exist.
Still more pe ni ious is the practice not un
fretjiieti ly met with in this country of peo
ple taking the mutter in their own hands
and vacejnnting each other promiscuously.
Everything in vaccination depends upon {
the selection of propter vaccine matter. It j
must b- fr m thfc nm of a healthy individ- j
util, and from pu tu'es which in < very par
ticular, not only in appestmnee but in time
developm nt, have established the charac
teristic features of get u ne and complete
cow pox. This is quite a nice p int fur
decision, an! I am.inclined to think that
even some physictuns do not uniformly ex
ercise that degree of minute discrimination
and vigorous judgment which alone can
insure successful vaccination and the per
petua ion of reliable vaccine virus. 7 hese
few words will conclusively show that vac
cination consists in something more than
merely scratch ng the arm with a pin or
lancet moistened with what is supposed to
be vac- ine matter
The question whethrr vaec'nation insures
a protection against small pox for a life
time, or v liether it ought to be r posted
several iimes during lile, remains yet unde
cided. and different opinions are ontertain
el on this subject. Mir ois that the de
gree of protection afforded by vaccination
det ends upon the genuineness and cora
pleL ness of the vaccination. An individ
ual who once has been thoroughly ratarin
ated can not be vaccinated again with ef
fect, no matter bow long since the first
vaccination was practiced and in the de
gree in which the pustules produced by a
vaccination, deviate from real and we 1 de
loped cow pox, in the some degree will his
system remain to he influence
of genuine vaccine matter, and also to the
contagion of small pox! During the pre
valence of small pox epideitnc- the | rue
tice of revaccination is the safest as vv
have seldom sufficient knowledge or evi
deuce of the genuineness f former vaccin
ations If genuine m tter produc sno ef
fect, we obtain «u mere sed assurance of
safety, if it produces pustules more or loss
genuine, wr only convince ourselves of the
deficiency of the former vaccination.
