Only a few weeks since we appeared before the world as editors of tkat old time honored journal, the Smrma Rr- resueax. To-day we appear before you^u having retired. We wish it understood that in doing so, wa are ac tuated by the slightest unkindaees towards the proprietor, Ool.

It is solely because we find after giving tha work a trial, that it would aeoeesarily absorb more of our time from the practice of our profession than we had expected, or could afford to "Only this and nothing more." We earnestly ask our friends to tinue their patronage, and sustain that paper that for more than thirty years has fought your battles and contribut ed in a large measure to the develop ment of your city and the surrounding country.

If it be said that artificial persons have no sonls therefore, their rights may be denied without tbe inflirting of pain, ws re ply that, all corporation* an composed of natural persons, when individual interests an directly involved, and therefore, tbe name measure of right en joyed by tbe natural should be award ed tbe artificial. We even go beyond this, we say that tbe commonwealth of Georgia cannot afford to be unjust or arbitraiy in tbe administration of justice. corporations are children of its own enacting, aad therefore, enti tled to that generous support and pro tection due from a parent to a child. It may be said that tbe State has con fided this power to tbs bands of these wise aad discreet persons, whose ad ministration of the powers confined will be just and impartial. We make no upon the commissioners, we know them personally and lreely award to them that distinction so justly merited, but if a suitor wboss course ot com plaint involves only one dollar or less has tbs right to bsvs tbe facts in bis passed npon by a jury of five men with the right to carry tbe same before tbe Superior Court by writ of Certioi- ari, and to the Supreme Court J»y writ of error, does it not seem that a mighty corporation composed of natu ral persons, should be allowed the same chance to be heard? To ask tbe ques tion ia to answer it. Rights whether of natural or artificial persona when disagreements arise should he settled by tbe Courts. It may be said that corporations too powerful for tbe people. We reply, if iustice ia delayed through tbe ability ot tbe oorporatioi to prolong litigation, it is equally true that when tbe litigation ends they also able to respond in damages. It is not necessary for us to say that tbs juries of the country are not slow to out foil compensation to any individual wronged by a corporation. We think it bot just to say that in writing this article we are actuated by no selfish motives. Oar opinions based npon what we conceive to be principles of equity. Stock in corporations is as much property as money in a balk. No man would feel that, tbe State justly if ia the exercise of an arbitrary power, it should appoint one or mon .persons clad with legislative power ful ly authorised to direct the manner ii which their property is te be managed. It seems so clesr to ns that we do not aee why tbe Legislature should not take proper steps ia looking to thin ad justment of differences. It msy be in sisted that tbe powers of tbe comtnia sioners does not defeat tbs right of an appeal in cases involving individual rights. Admit it. Still it is not ly technical. And is it not true that tbe commissioners have legislative powers? Cannot they impose terms, regulate charges, aad la this way ii terfere with the rights of tbe individual members composing the corporation, aad from which interference there " uo appeal. Say that by reduction of freight they one million dollars, are not tbe several stockholders fleeced to that extent? and is it proportion to the number of shares owned?

Harde man, State Treasurer, setting forth the financial condition of tbe State, which is as healthy as the most patriotic citi zen could desire. In 1877 the bonded debt oi Georgia was $10,944,aOO.Since that time her indebtedness has been reduced to $8,704,645, a decrease of $1,939, 865. The assets of the State to-day are more than her liabilities, and if her property, including the Wee tern and Atlantic road, were sold, it would bring a sum ample to meet all her obligations. The taxable prop erty in the State is steadily increasing, and is now $82,614,623 greater than i* was five years ago, while the Constitu tion forbids the increase of the public debt, and provides that upon the sale of any public property the proceeds shall only be applied to the payment of that debt. The object in placing these new bonds npon tbe market is to fond in them the obligation of the State falling doe within the next two years and amounting to about thres million dol lars. That they will prove a safe and profitable investment there esn be question of donbt, and that they will command a high premium forgone conclusion.

The Railroad Commission has made Macon a way station as distinguished from a terminal point. To counteract this detrimental ruling and for other purposes, she has tried to get a rail road direct to Florida through Houston, Dooly, and counties lying south. That enterprise had its course in the papers and wound np in no road. Now the notion is to ran a road east to Dublin, the connty site of Laurance. There is good deal of talk abont it, and also about the re-establishment of street cars for the convenience ot her citizens and visitors. It is more than probable hat this latter will be carried out, aa a city of magnificent distances This movement will retire a regiment of hacks, which blockade her certain localities, tbe hnrdel in Mul berry being tbe least frequented. mrbs are very tapidly being habilitated. Those hills and valleys southwest of the factory are set a cottages. A little east of this, Troop Hill, is located the reser which famishes snch a copious supply of water to the whole city. Thirty years since, this section was a wild of stunted shrubbery here and there d banks of pebble smoothed by the attritions of ages, may be callel a wild. Here Mercer sends np its spires, and north of it Wesleyan shows its tawers. Along this elevated range of hills which overlooks the plain of Com mercial Macon are located electric towers which may be seen in a circle whose diameter is thirty miles. A ride west to Dr. James Searcy’s, fourteen miles, located the rider on a locality where we trod our way to school fifty years since, and has not been trod by ye correspondent in forty years.

If actions speak louder than words, Mr. Olevelaud is telling tbe office-seek ers in quite audible tones to go home aad wait for their country to call them to public station, rather than to insist seeking honors for themselves or their cronies. Thus for the pressurei of influence seems to have failed to dictate a single important office. The President is evidently csllous to en treaty from interested parties, and snch urgency is apt to do more harm than good, ne very plainly disbelieves in the feudal system in politics, and re sents slate-making by delegation infringement on the functions of the exeenti ve. It is probable that we shall hear'no more of meetings by congres sional r-tate delegations to unite names for recommendation. That scheme has been tried pretty thoroughly, be pat down as a failure. It is amusing to observe the efforts of democratic Senators to avoid office- seekers at the Capitol. Every morn ing at an early hoar the applicants for senatorial influence to aid them in g ting appointments begin to collect the Senate chamber. By 11 o’clock generally all the seats iu resr of the chamber are occupied and the aisles are thronged with anxious watchers. Numerous questions ate pt pages in regard to Senator So-and-So, as to when he usually comes, by which door he enters, etc. It is noticeable of late that the democratic Senators, with few exceptions, do not show until after the Senate has been called to order. At five urinates to twelve Jim Christie makes the circuit of the chamber, warning all, in his deep bass voice, who are not entitled to the floor to get out. As the crowds file ont the men cast anxious glances back over their shoulders, apparently still hoping to catch sight of the Senator upon whom their hopes of office rest. Bui the Senators, thanks to the rales, ar< protected from their hungry constitu ents after the fall of the gavel calling the body to order. Department horses are not sheltered by the civil service rales, and it has been decided that they mnst go. Sec retary Lamar, and Attorney General Garland have both dispensed with the horses and carriages provided by the Government. Upon investigating the President’s stables Col. Lsmont also concluded that there were more horse a kept there for the office use of the* White Honse than wili be needed dar ing the summer, and has therefore giv- orders that all bat three shall be turned in to the qnarteriaattera’s de partment, where they belong. There were originally seven office horses. Daring Mr. Arthur’s administration the White House stables filled, as in addition to the seven horses referred to, he kept ten hor6ei his own expense, among them four big bays, which were often drivi hand. These Mr. Arthur left for the of President Cleveland i he might desire. President Cleveland intends keeping bat two carriage horses for his private use, and will shortly purchase a suitable pair, bnt until the ill continue to use those placed s his disposal by Mr. Arthur. The ex-President is receiving a con snt round of attentions daring hi stay at Secretary Frelinghnysen’ house. Mr. Arthur has dined with 8enator and Mrs. Engene Hale, with Mr. and Mrs. D. P. Morgan, with the Russian Minister and Madame de Strove, and with Chief Jnatice Mrs. Waite. Last Wednesday the British Minister and Mrs. West tertained him at a dinner to fourteen guests. The first formal reception of Presi dent Cleveland last evening was a brilliant and successful affair in every way. At no time in the history of the Fxecutive Mansion has it presented more attractive appearance with U_ brightly illuminated and flower-deck ed parlors, and handsomely dressed legion of ladies who moved gracefully about among the palms and floral exotics that adorned the corridors and filled every nook and corner of the par lors. It was rather interesting to see ex- President Arthur passing in with oth er guests to do homags to the office which he held only a few weeks ago. President Cleveland, as soon as he •aw tbe ex-President, stepped forward aad greeted him heartily, and Miss Cleveland was no less warm and cor dial in ber manners towards ber broth er’s predecessor. Wherever be went Mr. Arthur was followed bv the glances of tha crowd of guests, and all seemed to via with each other in most pleasing evidences of regard. It is whispered that Mrs. Manning will be the social leader in the Cabinet circle for several seasons. Mrs. Bay ard is too much out of health to bear tha fatigues and responsibilities and must be often represented by her daughter. Mrs. Manning is a woman of fascinating presence, who poisesses plenty of tact, a ready memory of faces and names, and is socially inclined. Indeed, I am told that her ambition, rather than her husband’s, led him to give np his bnsinsss in Albany for the Cabinet position. Lr.xox. GEORGIA’S DAY.

As they ascended tho platform tho thousands of Georgians and others who had congre gated to do honor to the occasion, arose and cheered enthusiastically, The gov ernor, Mr. Fitkin, Commissioner-Gen* eral Morchead and Senator Davidson oocupiod prominent seats on tho front of the stand. The ladies weie seated near them. The Mexican band and the military had the up per and back seats. As soon as order restored, Acting Commissioner Pratt introduced Mr. Pitkins, who wel come-1 the Georgians to New Orleans. He spoke in glowing terms of Georgia's progress and public spirited enterprise. He alluded to her phenomenal growth, her great natural wealth, her military order, her devotion to the cause of lib. And her great men, and concluded by sxtending, in the person of her Execu tive and her people here assembled, a warm reception to New Orleans, Mr. Pratt introduced Hon. Jno. S. David- jn, who responded to the address o* elcomc and formerly tendered Geor gia’s exhibit to the Board of Manage ment of the exposition. If Georgians have heretofore been proud of their State they had that pride immensely increas ed by Mr. Davidson’s splendid repre sentation of the wonderful resources of theEmpire State of the South. He show ed that she produced almost every ag ricultural production from the tropics to the fruits of a Northern clime. They still produce Of maunfactnres. She possesses all the minerals and nearly every variety of wood. She has granite eno build a city twice the size of Ni leans, and she is rapidly developing smaller industries. He explained the constitntional provision that had pre vented the State from making an ex hibit worthy of her great resources, and said: “While we cannot therefore ter into competitive exhibit in this i pect we can compete with you in manhood of onr men, the beauty of our women, or iu our earnestness for the snccess of this great Exposition. He hoped that the result of the E: position would be to fully.' And closed with the beautiful quota tion “yon cannot tame tho eagle, and you darn not halt the dove.” The applause accorded Mr. Davidson was a perfect ovation. Lovely bou quets were thrown to him front all parti of the hall, and the ten thousand peo ple present yelled themselves hoarse. His friend* gathered aronnd him and congratulated him warmly, while Georgians, who did not know him, pressed forward for introductions and for tho opportunity of thanking him for tbe brave words he had spoken for Georgia. But t! -»st gratifying of the complin*' him came from an lows e< nsnked him most cordially ft _ utriotic sentiments, Commissioner-General Morehead re ceived the exhibits on tho part of the management, and in doing so called at tention to a matter that seems to havi been forgotten.

Beware of Mercury and Potash, Mercury is more destructive to ha- an health and life than war, pesti lence and famine combined, go said a distinguished writer many years ago, is true to-day as then. The poor victim of blood disease is drugged with Mercury to core the malady, and then dosed with Iodides to cure him of the Mcrcnrial Poisoning; bnt instead of any relief, the first breaks down his general health and makes him a crip ple, and the other rains his digestive organs. Mercury and Potash are dan gerous even when administered by di nd under the eye of a good physician, and when put up in cos- ‘ten by incompetent persons, i produce evil consequences. Be carefnl of these poisonons mixtures you may regret it.

Inflametory Rheumatism, I have been afflicted for nearly fonr- en years with tho severest form of inflamatory rheumatism. For a large portion of the time was confined to bed. and suffered the most excruciating pain, my legs badly swollen. My case was thonght incurable by the physicians, aud I hare often hoped that death would ensue and relieve tua of pain. Last month I secured, at the suggestion of a friend, one dozen bottles of Swift’s Specific, and after using six bottles I entirely free from pain, the first time in nearly fourteen years. My joints are becoming more snpple and the swelling gone. I am ready to an swer any inquiries as to the facts in the case. G. W. St. Clair. . Cabot, Ark., April 19 ’81.
