Times.) Letter from the State Capital. Editor Times: —This city is quiet notwithstanding we have been afflict ed with spiritualists, clairvoyants and such people in great numbers. The immortal J. N. lias been here, though tie has not “lifted it ” here yet. Dr. Webster has been here and made sev oral attempts either to tell what he knows or to betray his ignorance, but the people could not or would not see it, and the Dr. departed. Madam De Grnaf was here and I believe is here yet. One of the common herd ol fortune tellers. Mrs. Addie L. Ballou has endeavored on several occasions to enlighten the public mind on spiritual ism and kindred subjects, with what success Ido not know. There arc a goodly number of professed spiritual ist in this place, and the number is said to be increasing. Our Superior Oourt lias adjourned and criminals are again beginning to ply their calling. Our worthy town Justices however at tended very promptly to their wants wuen detected and kindly supply them with bed and board at the public ex pense. The Legislature is steadily progressing with its labors and will probably get through before very long. The question now agitating that body as well as the public most is “shall the bonds declared illegal, null and void at the last session of the Legislature be paid ?” lam not ac quainted with the tone of the Press throughout the State on this moments ous question, nor do I know the opinions of many of our leading men on it. The Ilerald of this city, takes a bold and outspoken position against their payment, while* the Sun and Con stitution are more reticent. lion. B. 11. Hill’s view of the question is cer tainly a novel one. He holds that the State is qot bound tor one dollar of the State debt contracted by the Bullock government. lie reaches, this conrlusinu by presuming that Congress forced that government up on us and as a consequence that the Federal government is bound for the debt. My own view of th s question may not be worth reading but “such as I have I give unto thee.” The credit ot the State of Georgia is in volved in this matter. Bullock was the recognised agent and head of the Slate government. lie was so recog nised by the Federal government, by all tlu; State governments and by our own people. Bullock may have been an evil, aye, Bullock was an evil, but he to is our evil, elected or said to have been elected by the voters of Georgia. As such his acts were the acts of the State and of the people of the State, so long as he acted within the channel of his legally defined pow ers and duties. He may have stolen, misspent and misapplied the public money, if so that does not invalidate the claims of any innocent holder of Georgia’s securities, and innocent hol ders if any such there be, ought to be paid and must be paid to the last cent, or we will suffer very materially in our credit at home and abroad. The claims of the holders of Georgia se curities ought to be rigidly investi gated and when there are any equis ties in the holders favor he ought to be paid. As tor those who bought with notice, and are therefor, “parti ceps Criminis,” I want them to remain unpaid until the last trump shall have sounded, and believe the financial world will rejoice at the discomfiture of the dishonest scoundrels. One thing however is certain, money must be bad. The new bonds don’t go off, the Treas ury is almost or quite empty, and even if Mr Nutting’s bill should be'- come a law,the bonds therein provided for, would not sell, if ever, at least not until this bond muddle is got lid ot. We must either show by irrefragable proofs to the whole world that weaie not equitable liable to any other hol ders of these bonds for one cent, or we must make arrangements to pay these before we9a 11 get credit. What say monied men ? Why they exclaim it a Democratic administration eiate the debt created by a Republican administration, and we contract new laws with the new administration, will not the Republicas when they come into power repudiate too ” CARROLLTON, GEORGIA. FRIDAY MORNING, FEBRUARY 21, 1873. It looks to me very much like a man who is a miller and a shoe maker both, refusing in his character of shoe maker to pay debts contracted as-a miller and vice versa. Individuals "ho suffer their paper to go to pro test, lose their credit in the commer cial world and States cannot expect to fare much better. Now if the ac tion of the last Legislature was well advised and was final, the present Legislature ought not to have resurs reeled the affair and got people to thinking about it, They say the ghosts of people who are murdered, will revisit the earth continually, until their murders are avenged, while those who die natural ly T rest easy. But I hope this simile is not applicable to the question under discussion, and therefore will not apply it. Ihe city counsel of this city will meet to-night to discuss the propo sition of increasing the city’s subscrip tion to the Georgia Western Rail- Iload. Campbell Wallace asks that it be ex tended to a million dollars but I fear the Council is unequal to the emer gency and will fool along untill Savan nnh will get the trade of your whole section nf country via the S. G & N. Ala,, and the Central Reads. llow any fourteen men haying common business sagacity, not to say sense, can sit and play with their fingers and refuse to do the only thincr in the woild that can and will make cheap manufactories a possibility here, is more than I can see and yet I tear this Council is going to act on exact ly that line. To give your readers an idea of the state of affairs then, I need only say that rents have declined one third and taxes increased one third within the last twelve months. The decline in rents show that people are leaving here and as people leave and houses are left vacant of course building stops. Real estate too has declined. The other day a gentleman was boasting of having sold a lot for sl,-* 800. Why John didn’t you pay 2500 for it, Oli ? yes but I bought it when Kimball was here. Whatever may be said of Kimball he had “go ahead” in him ami that is the great element which I hope our city conn oil will exhibit in their action to night, but I dout believe they will. J. A. A. Feb. 11, 1873. «<a>» — . The following bit of humor, at the expense of those who worship the ancients, is so good natured and apro pos , that it lias been freely translated for the columns of the “ Times ” * * * AnXJnedited Hotter of Cicero. M. T. CICERO TO TIIE JURISCONSULT, Trebonius, Greeting. Taking advantage of a short vaca tion which Pluto gave me, I hastened to visit this Paris of which we hear so much in the regions of the dead. By Hercules ! I really thought myself in Rome! Believe me, my dear Tre bonius, these people are not barbari ans. Were our Cesar to see them, tie would scarcely recognise them. They have borrowed our laws and civil ad ministration. Their language is nearly the same as ours, only they have changed the inflection and the order of the words. They have public schools where they learn Latin as we did Greek in ours. Their children study our institutions before they do their own ; and many of their teachers who have never rea l one of their own orators, know my Milo by heart ! In deed, my dear Trebonius, yoa would scarcely believe what efforts these ex cellent people make to imitate us. They give Roman names to their tern pies, to their theatres, to their prom enades, to their children. Many an AGUSTUS CESAR struts and swag gers, a sad contrast to his mignilo" quent name ! They have a Cunpus Martins, —an Elysium , —a Pantheon, —an O leon, — 1 Jlippoclrom js, —-a Circus ; but, O, ye gods ! what a cir cus! The meanest munhipium of Italy would have 'blushed to erect such a thing. Among them an heroic soul is styled a Roman; a woman of exalted spirit, a Cornelia; an imposing edifice, a Roman construction. Whatever they do, say or write, must have a Roman color ing, or it is not well done, said or written. On the stage they act Roman trag edies, in* which Brutus, Pompey, Cesar and the good king Tullius himself, utter sage maxims of state. What do vou think? I actually had ail oppor tunity to admire myself thundering against Cataliue! O, what gestures I made! It seems to me, my dear Ti e bonius, that we did not declaim so in our time; and I can not understand why these people are unable to oompre bend that Roman oraters spoke plainly aud directly. The actor charged with my role, wore the toga and cothurnus nobly, and I cried out to him from my seat, “Bravo, Roscius ? ” You will, perhaps, ask me if they have a senate. And why should they not have one, since they have tribunes, dictators, Cesars, —-whom they have a habit of setting up one day and pull ing down another Yes, my friend, they have a senate, —-and a prince of the senate, —and questors, too, —Jupi- ter forgive me! “ Where are your consuls ? ” asked I one day. “They are all abroad,” “ At the head of your armies ? ” “ O, no ! We are at peace ! ” This reply greatly surpirised me. I suppose their consuls have all prov ed traitors and banished ; and as their elections are shortly to take place, they will doubtless hasten to appoint others'- “ But where is your Pontifex Max imus ? „ “ He is at Rome.” “ And your capitolium ? ” “ At Toulouse.” In truth, my friend, this is a strange people. There sat by me, one night in the theatre, a wr.ter charged with revising the Epheinerides to which are daily consigned the proceedings of the prince and of the senate : “ You could not imagine ” said he to me, “ how like the Romans we are. The Romans have turned the heads of our good citizens. They admire nothing unless it is Greek or Roman. Only Greek tragedies are played at the colleges. Our professors deliver Latin harangues in their annual assemblages. Our people pray in Latin. Go into our Christian cemeteries and you will believe yourself on the Appian Way. You will see beautiful cenotaphs and mausoleums surmounted by large, and costly urns.” “ Urns ! ” interrupted I; “ for what purpose, since you have renounced the salutary custom ot burning the dead?” “O,” resumed my scribe, “it is not necessary to imitate you after death. One of my brethren, a great advocate of cremation, advises the Paris ans to rekindle the funeral torch; but they laugh in his face. They wish to be buried like good Christians, but they will speak ot their ashes—of the ashes of their ancestors. Our poets recommend their ashes in very touch mg verses to their friends, and then have themselves buried just like other people. We demanded of England the ashes of our Ciesar, who had never been burned at ail. Everybody saw liis body, but yet they will speak of having seen his ashes.” I interrupted him again : “ Explain to me this strange contradiction be tween language and manners.” Reflecting a moment ho answered; “Os all ihe habits of a people, the most difficult to uproot are those of language. Words often survive the things which they express. They are like old coins whose stamp becomes each day less distinct. But we know what they are, we are accustomed to them, and we preserve them through a spirit of routine and to spare our selves the labor ofdevising new ones.” What do you think of lhatexplana tion, my dear Trebonius ? It does not appears to me to be new ; for, if I have a good memory, it seems to me that you made, at Tusculum, one day, about nineteen centuries ago, nearly the same reflection. Do you remem ber it ? Farewell Sandy Higgins and the Wid ow Horry. One day Sandy came to my office and sat down without a word. For minutes he sat still watching me in tently as if he was trying to make out by the sounds of my pen what I was writing. “ Squire ” said he at length, “did I ever tell you about my scrape with tne Widow Jlorry, up here on the' river.” “ Never did, ’ said I, laying down my pen, “ let’s have it.” “ They’re curious tilings, widows is,” said he in a meditative tone, “ and the more you study about ’em the more you don’t know enything about ’em. What is that thing I’ve read of in Eg*pt or B'me other country that nobody could unridle ? ” “ The Sphynx, probably,” I replied. “ Well he continued, that was a widow, sure as you ever bad a granny. Everything else on earth has been found out but them, and they’re as much a mystery to day as the North Pole. You may read the history of the world from Genesis to Revelati ons and you’ll find that widows has been at the bottom or the top of five quar ters of all devilment that’s cut up. Was you ever in love with any one? ” “ Lots of them,” said I. “ You’re a great gander—that is what you are ? said he. A man that loves one and gets over it won’t nev er get bit by another, if lie’s got as much sense as a ground hog. I don’t consider that I have got any sense at all, but I m a Iktle grain too smart to let another of them get all the trumps on me. This Widow Ilorry that I was speaking of, is little the hand somest woman, I reckon, that ever looked a man into fits, and I ought to be a judge, for I’ve seen lots of pretty women in my days. She was about thirty-five years old when 1 went up there to work, just in the bloom of her beauty, as full of deviltry as a three year old mule colt. There was a ball over at Jenkins,” and of course I went, for I always go where there is any fun going on, and generally act the fool before I get away, of course. The widow was there dressed as fine as one of Solomon’s lilies, and flying around like a young lamb in a rye patch. I was introduced to her and asked her to dance with me, and she said “ yes.” I jumped up like I’d been sot down on a lot of live coals. You may talk about your sensations, 1 but when she took hold of my hand and sorter squeezed it, felt a sensation as big ns a load of wood, and it kept running up and nown my back like a cat squirel with a hawk after him- I’m very fond of dancing, but I’ll bo hanged if I could tell exactly whether I enjoyed it that night or not, for ev ery time she took hold of my hand I’d commence feeling curious behind the ears and up and down the back again? and then I wouldn't know whether T was on earth or in a balloon, or on a comet, or anything a’bout it It was undoubiably a case of love at first sight and a powerful bad case at that. For a wonder I got through the frolic without cutting up any extras, as I’m in the habit of doing when I go into public. Id set my pegs to go home with the widow when the ball ended, but just as I was fixing my mouth to ask her up steps a long, lather faced doctor named Mabry, walked her off right before my eyes. That riled me little, but I kept my tongue still, in ward!} swearing to break Ills bones the very first opportunity that offered itself. I saw there was no use saying anything, so I went home and went to bed, and all the rest of the night 1 was dreaming about rainbows, angels, butterflies, fid lies, widows and docs tors, and mixed worse than a dutch man’s dinner. Weil, “ Squire, to make a short story of it, I made up my mind to have the widow or kill myselfor somebody else. “So I made it convenient to, be on hanel where she was on all occasions, I couldn’t cat or sleep, and if the tiling had held on I wouldn’t have sense enough to skin a rabbit. But I was determined it shouldn’t last kmg, for I’d been fooled so often by women that I thought I would not give her time to think of anything but me.— She appeared to take to me right sharply aud though the doctor seemed inclined to mix it with me, I did not consider him more in the way thau a brush fence for I thought I was so far gone she couldn’t see nobody on earth but me. “ Well Squire, things went on so for about a month, and on Sun day I screwed up my spunk and put the question to her. She sorter look ed one-sided and finally told me she couldn’t give ine an answer just then, but if I’d call at her house next Thursday evening, she’d give me a final answer. Thinks I, you are mine just as sure as there are fiddles below! whenever a woman takes time to study she’ll say “ves.” Squire don’t poets say something about the calcu lations of men and rats gom’ crook ed ? ” “ Mice and men, Burns says,” I answered." “ Well, mice and rats is all one, and so is men and fools, sometimes, as I’ve found in my travels, I was so sure she would have me I weut off and spent all my money for fine clothes, think ing I’d have them ready for the wed ding—and I did ! # Confound her ! Thursday evening come at last, tho’ it was a long time about it, and over I w ent dressed into fits, and feelings as big as Josh Moyer did when lie was elected coroner. Got there at dark and found a right smart crowd collect ed, which was not on the bills, but I felt as big and as good as the rest of ’em. So I marched in like a blind mule into a potato patch, and took a seat by the fire. I didn’t see any thing of the widow but kept looking for hei to come in or send for me, and passed away the time by cussin’ the crowd to myself, thinking they had no business there, and I would not get to talk to my woman a bit. Pres ently a door opened and in walked Polly and that dod burned doctor, and a w hole team of boys and gals fixed up savagely. I tell you I looked around for a fiddler, thinking they w’ere going to have a ball ; but I wondered what they all kept so still for, and was about proposing a reel ? when up stepped a little preacher, and before vou could swallow' a live oys- , ter lie had Polly and the doctor mar ried faster than a Mexican greaser could tie a bull’s horns ! I was so com pletely flummuxed that I set there with my mouth opened, like I w'as going to swallow the whole crowd and my eyes looked like two billiard I balls till the ceremony was all over, when I jumped up and bellered ; “ I forbid the thing from being con stitilted ! ” “ You are a little too late my friend ? ” says the preacher, and they all commenced laughing like they’d seed something very funny. “I’ll be darned squizzled es I don’t be soon enough for somebody vit! says I, for I was mad, Squire and no mistake in the ticket. Ido believe I could have eat up that doctor quicker than a hungry dog could swallow a squirrel skin, es I could have had a fair chance at him. It was too bad after I had fixed up to marry her my- j self, for her to walk right out before my eyes and marry that great baboon. ! “It was bad, that is a fact,” said I. 1 “ Bad ! ” replied he. It was mean er than eating a fried coon. I first thought I’d go straight home, but then I concluded it wouldn’t spite nobody, so I determined to stop aud see es I couldn’t get satisfaction out of some body. “You know' I’m the devil to get my self or somebody - else, in a scrape when I take a notion, and I’d taken onethatnight that w’entall over me like a third day chill, so I commmenced studying out some plan. I recollec ted hearing tlie doctor say that where he come from, (but the Lord only know r s where that was) the bride and groom always washed their faces to' gether before they went to bed as a charnr against infidelity, imbecility or some other long 'words. AY bile I was studying I saw the doctors sad dle bags setting in a corner, so I wait ed until they went to supper, and then I got the bags and looked to see what I could discover. Nearly the fir-t thing I saw'was apiece of lunar costic. 1 slipt it into my pocket, for I had a plan as soon as I saw it. Well I watched around till I saw one of the gills go to the water pail with a pitcher, and I went out and asked her what she was going to do with it.— She said she w r as going to carry it in the room for the doctor and Poll to wash their faces. I kept talking to her w hile she was filling the pitcher, and when she turned her head away I dropped the caustic in. It w'as about bedtime, and I got my hat and put out, but I could not help laughing all the way home whenever I’d think about it. Well Squire, they do say when that couple waked up next morning, they both had the hardest kind ot fits, each thinking they had been sleeping w'ith a nigger. Oh it was rich ! He was a cussin’ aud tearing up things and she was screaming and fainting, and coming too, and me not there to see it ! They made such an ungodly racket that the folks broke into the room to see what was the matter and found their faces and hands as black as the inside of a stove pipe. I’d given half my interest in the other world just to have been in some t afe place where I could have seen the w’hole row. As soon as they found that they were really the same folks that were married the night be fore, they called for warm water and soap ; but just then the doctor hap pened to think about the pitcher, and took it to the door to see what w'as the matter. There was a little piece of caustic that had not dissolved, and as soon as lie” saw it he said : “It’s no use washing, Polly, all the soap in New r Y"ork can’t wasli that black off!” That w'as the truth, Squire, soap and rags had no more effect than it would on a native negro to get white again. I never found out, but one thing Ido know,” he concluded get ting up to go, “the next time I saw the doctor I had the hardest fight, and come nigher getting whaled than ever I did m all my born davs!” ->» There is a man in Glen Falls, N. Y., who w'out believe any stories about the sagacity ov dogs. He savs dogs have not common sense In proof of his assertion lie relates how he poured kerosene on a dog and set it on fire, just to have a little fun, as he was lonely during his wife’s absence, and that dog act ually rap under the barn belonging to him, and lay there and set the barn on fire, though the man whiS" tied to him to come out.
