I’HE EAGLE. UY I? KI)W IN E Aw HA AL J’riilay Morninsr, “July 18, 1879. editor!a l eaglets. Just in proportion as the themom eter goes up, lager goes down, says an exchange. Are they called the “dark ages” because at that period gas had not been invented ? Mrs. Sarah A. Dorsey, of Mississip pi, lately deceased, willed her entire large estate to Jefferson Davis.

Emory Speer is improving liis vacation by indicting wisdom for he editorial columns of the Athen 8 ! Valchman. The smallest boat and biggest fool that ever attempted to sail around the world, left Boston for that pur pose on Monday. We hope Col.

Our State exchanges came up cn iho half-sheet last week with a good leal of unanimousness. We half sheeted a little ourselves. - ♦- * —- Col. Thornton is the Banquo’s ghost of the independents and will not lown at their bidding. may lack “jedgemont” but he does i.ot lack nerve. ——♦ ♦ If we have not remarked it before, we will pauso now amid tho whirl of stirring events long enough to remark that tkoArnoricuß Recorder is a pow er ful lively paper. The Augusta Chronicle credits us with an article about Ben Hill which m ver appeared in this paper. The Chronicle probably has got us con founded with some of the many other Gainesville journals. Inspiration may be a good thing, but while you are waiting for it the oilier fellow who depends solely upon laird work will havo his row hoed and be off a fishing. With the mercury clambering m ound in the nineties and the inde pendents organizing for a vigorous campaign this country is growing so i i‘d hot we are tempted to leave it i nd climb a tree. We would liko to see the roll of I lie convention “to meet in Atlanta on the 25th iust.” We want to find ' ut who the men are who are “aloof ! oni both the democratic and repub i ; can parties. Wo were not much afraid of the independent movement until Col. i’hornton’s shrill buglo call rang out < n the still summer air Now we recognize tho fact that there is busi ness brewing. It transpires now that Dr. Felton bad deputy marshals’ to help him in iue last election. Col. Marcellas L'hornton should let his “galluses” down another button hole, and try to fix up a record for the indepen dents that will not smell so loud. We have received the first number °f the Mountain Chronicle, a fivo col umn paper, recently established at Dawsonville by H. J. O’Shields journalism is a tempting path to ‘dray in but it is fringed with more i horns than roses. Out West they are running the electric light into the ground—that is to say, it is being introduced as an illuminating agency in the mines in that section of our groat country. It works very successfully, so tho min ors say, and gives a strong light with little heat. When such a careful, aud yet sprightly journalist as Grubb, of the Darien Gazette, remarks that one of the editors of this paper is “one of the smartest newspaper men in the South,” may not the Eagle be par doned for spreading her wings just a trilie more to the breeze ? The foolish man taketh his wife to a church sociable, and spondeth $5 for ice cream and cake. The wise man alloweth his wife to serve on the refreshment committee, and when the evening cometh he goeth to that church sociable with a market basket. If his wife has improved her oppor tunities, he cometh away ahead of the game. Col. Christopher, of the Atlanta Phonograph, insists that the Comp troller General committed a grevious error in tho recent wild land sales by not directing the fi fas’ to the Sheriff of the county where the land was located. If the Colonel will pause in his wild career long enough to examine sections 3032 aud 886 of the code he will find that the law di rects that all fi fas’ shall be directed “to ail and singular the sheriffs’ of said State aud their lawful deputies.” We will depart from our usual rule long enough to wager a steam saw mill against a brass button that the able and erudite Phonographter never saw ali fa directed any other way, unless it was to the constables’, or coroners’ of the State. It is rare ly that a man can fondle things he knows nothing about, without mak ■ru/ himself mote, or less, ridiculous. The Asylum Question. Year after year our legislature has been called upon to make appropria tions for enlarging the institution for the care of .the insane, the idiots, inebriates and all that unfortunate class who became the beneficiaries of the charity of the State. We learn that at this session an appropriation of $30,000 will bo asked for the further enlargement of the asylum at Milledgeville. Anent this we learn that a bill either has been or will be introduced at the present session providing fur the building of an entirely separate institution, and that it will probably provide for its location in this city. We heartily second the motion. No point in north or northeast Georgia we opine can offer greater induce ments in point of healthfulneta and climatic advantages. It may be urged that a separate institution will involve the extra ex pense of another set of officers be sides the appropriations necessary for the building. The answer to this we think is simple and conclu sive. A separate institution will make possible the classification of the patients. At Milledgeville we have all the necessary arrangements, strong buildings, barred windows, etc , for the care of lunatics and in sane persons, and the present over crowded condition of that institution is due to the necessity of putting inebriates and idiots and other harm less classes of patients within its walls thus making it an unw eldy aud unclassified house of refuge or home for the unfortunate which ren ders it impossible for tho officials to properly care for aud treat their pa tients Aside from the chances which an independent institution would give for classification aud bet ter treatment, tho rivalry which would certainly spring up and exist botween the two would inevitably result in tho better aud more eco nomical management of both. We are sure the present officers of the in stitution would hail it as a great relit f to them, at least we know that the late Dr. Green for many years the efficient superintendent of the asy lum was warmly in favor of some such arrangement. While we are heartily in favor of retrenchment in all reasonable ways, we cnunot i.ffird to be niggardly or stingy in our ctmnt.ns We hope the bill admit and to will pass. The Gibson Case Some eminent judge is related to have said that there were two uuac countable things, the fancy of a wo man and the verdict of a petit jury. He was right, and the trial and ac quittal of Gibson, ihe Macon mur derer, is a case in point. The facts of the case briefly stated are about as follows: Gibson was a man addicted to strong drink, aud vvlieu under its influence was quarrelsome aud dan gerous. His best friends shunned him at such a time. On a Sunday in November last he got drunk, and about dark was standing in the doorway of Ralston Hall. Two or three of his friends came up and l.e threatened to shoot them. They dissuaded him, however, aud win e standing tulkiug to him, a stranger in the city, a man named (J leman from New York came up, aud Gibson threatened to shoot him The man asked him not to do it, aud asked the crowd all in to drink. At this juncture Gibson fired aud the man fell. He fired we believe twice more. The unfortunate man was taken to his room aud died in a few hours. He did not even know Gibson’s name. The case was fried once before, re sulting in a mistrial. Last week Gibson was again put on tria', and a jury of twelve men sworn to do their duty returned a verdict of not guilty. The community was outraged. The 18tate will be likewise when it learns the facts. A more wanton, unprovoked and outrageous murder was never committed anywhere. That of poor Port9r by the Texas assassin is not more revolting. And yet a Georgia jury say the man is not guilty. The juries of this country cinnotbe trusted. Here is a man, or rather a monster, a red-handed assassin turned loose upon a tremb ling community, to go on in his mad career, aud shoot down if he likes, the solicitor who prosecuted him, and the witnesses who testified against him. We shall not be aston ished for the news of the wreaking of his vengeance upon them to come at any moment. God help us if this state of thing! is to continue. The Heated Term. Georgia has not seen such a sum mer as this has been in tweLiy years. The weather has been ix tremely hot, and in many portions of the State drought has prevailed to such an extent as to almost entirel> destroy the growing crops. Espe cially is this true in Middle and Southwestern Georgia. In the tei ri tory tributary to Augusta, the crons will be almost a total failure, ami it is estimated that Richmond county alone has lost SIOO,OOO by the failure of the watermelon crop which is gen erally one of the largest sources of revenue. Truly the hand of the Lord has been laid heavily upon us. The North Georgia Agricultural College. Last week a bill was introduced by Representative Yancey to appro priate $20,000 to rebuild the North Georgia Agricultural College at Dah longa, unfortunately destroyed by fire some months since. We hope there will be no opposi tion to the bill. The college has done and is doing more for the youth of North and North-East Georgia than any similiar institution in the State. It is a part of, and under the management of the State University, and affords the advantages of a first class education at less cost than can be obtained elsewhere. We are reli ably informed that a young man can defray his whole expenses, tuition and all for one year for SIOO. We do not believe this can bs done anywhere else in the State. The law authorizes th s college to license teachers the same as the boards of education, and at the late commence ment over eighty young men were thus licensed, who will teach through out this section of the State, at least during vacation, and many of them permanently, There is no constitutional pro\is ion in the way of the appropriation While the constitution says that no taxes shall bo assessed for school purposes, except for “instructing children in the elementary branches of an English education” it declares the General Assembly may from time to time make such donations to the university of Georgia as the condi tion of the treasury will authorize. As this college is a part of the uni versity the appropriation can be made. As we have said, we hope there will be no opposition to the bill. The State of Georgia cannot afford to retrench in the direction of her educational expenditures. No igno rant people can be great or happy, and every dollar expended in educa ting the rising generation is bread cast upon the waters that shall re turn to her an hundred fold in the increased intelligence prosperity and happiness of her people. Preparing for (lie Fray. Col. Marcellus E. Thornton has is sued a call for a convention of the in dependents of Georgia to meet in At lanta on the 25th, inst. This sounds a little strange coming from a party whose fundamental principle, as they claim, is opposition to all conventions or organizations of any bind. It would seem that they have changed their tactics and propose now to or ganize, and to do so in ample time. The independent press however seem to see the ridiculous attitude in which the call places them and hasten to jump on the fence and in dignantly repudiate Col. Thornton. In this too they are recreant to their principles. They say this is a free country, and every man has a right to do as ho pleases, and this attempt to bulldoze a brilliant and meritorious young gentleman is as false to their announced principles as it is unkind to him. If Col, Thornton wants to call a convention he has a perfect right to do so, and this attempt to frown down the unanimous Colonel should be severely condemned. All Wrong. We are no extremist. We believe iu justice. The man or the jour nal who would wantonly preju dice any man however humble iu the eyes of his fellows, is unworthy to direct public opinion or to attempt to enlighten the masses. Recently there has been an inves tigation of the wild land transactions in the comptroller general’s office. The committee investigated the mat ter aud submitted two reports —ma- jority and minority. They have not been acted upon. Toe evidence has been published. And yet already certain journals are mercilessly as sailing the comptroller’s office, and indulging in all sorts of deductions in advanco of the examination of the matter by the legislature. Out upon such journalism. For ourself we have Baid nothing, nor do we propose to do so until we see the facts. We are not going to shoot at a noise in tho dark, mayhap injuring honest men. We shall wait until the matter has been settled and then put the blame where it belongs. Yellow Fever Scare. Five cases of yellow fever appear ed iu Memphis last week and caused such a stampede among her citizens |as has been rarely seen. Thousands | left the city and the railroads were entirely unable to move the affright ed populace as fast as they desired to g°- The entire country was fearful that the terrible scourge of last year was to be repeated. Cities every where quarantined against Memphis and evt ry precaution was taken to prevent the spread of the disease. Our latest advices however, up to the time we go to press indicates that the disease is not epidemic and the peo ple are returning to their homes. The great heart of the entire country will give a sigh of relief liii.t they are not again to bo visited by such a scourge us that which last year shrou ded the Union in gloom. Harris, ol the Atlanta Constitution, is still warring on the dogs, but be tween a sheep and a dog the average legislator leans to the latter. THE LEGISLATURE. Mew* .Votes from tile Gate City—Local Legislation—TLe A gcicolturat l!u --reatt—The \Vll<l Land Report—The Geological Enrcau—S. G. Cot lege—Bell Punch—Dog Law, Etc. [Editorial Correspondence Eagle.] Atlanta, July 17cb, 1879. Legislation is dragging its slow, weary, heated, length along. It iias been two weeks yesterday since the speaker’s gavel rang “come to order’’ on the marble top of his elevated stand, and while there has been a large amojmt of hard work gotten through with, it is not patent to the outsider. Most of the first work ot a session is.done in committees. The session is hours a day, but the balance of.the jime is full of more arduous that performed during the session proper. It would be an utter impossibilitv in the space which you can devote to this letter to give anything like a full synopsis of the business which has been introduced. Perhaps seven tenths of the matter so far introduced has been local and special bills. The constitutional convention desired to abridge this as much as possible, but I believe there is more of it this ses sion than I have ever known. The only matter of much general interest so far disposed of is the ques tion of the abolition of the agricultu ral bureau. On last Tuesday, after a week of skirmishing, a test vote was had upon the matter in the House, the bill to abolish it being upon its second reading, and the committee having recommended that it pass. The House refused to agree to the report of tho committee by a vote of 86 to 62, and the bill was lost. So the bureau is safe for another two years at least. The wild land committee have sub mitted their report, and it has been ordered printed together with the evidence. It will probably be out to-morrow or Saturday. There has been a wide-spread, and I think pre mature discussion of the report and its recommendations. Tho matter is pending before the legislature. There is a majority and minority report, there are some very pointed state ments reflecting upon the character of some gentlemen, and I do not think there should be any effort to prejudice the legislature or the peo ple upon the question before the publication of tlio evidence and the fall and free discussion which will ensue. I think it a forgone conclusion that the geological bureau will, to use a slang phrase, “go up.” Li wil ! require a special appropriation, and* to get this requires a constitutional majority, which is 88 votes. I do not believe there are this many in tho house who favor it. However, I am not much of a prophet, and cannot say positively. Col. Price is here working like a beaver for the North Georgia Col lege. Ido hope the appropriation wdl be made to rebuild it. It is a great institution, has done and is doing much good, and ought to be aided in this its hour of need. Mil ledgeville would like to have it re moved there and has a delegation here in her interest but Ido not think it amounts to much. There is some talk of tho Moffet bell-punch, aud a dog law, but I do not believe that either will pass. This letter has been writ'en hur riedly, and there are several matters I should like to speak of but time and space forbids. I will endeavor to keep you fully posted in tho fu ture, aud with more particularity than in this issue. It is as hot here as the place we read about, and it is almost impossi ble to write or do anything else, ex cept perspire and wish that an ice berg would explode somewhere in the neighborhood. A long, lean, lank, North Carolina excursionist struck Atlanta tho other night, and after asking at every hotel he could find if he could “stay all night,” he finally struck the National and tackled Maj. White. Laying a dilapidated carpetsack on the coun ter he remarked: “Kin I stay all night hero ?” “Sorry to say we are plumb full.” “No rooms ?” “No, sir.’’ “Get iu a bed with anybody ?” “Every bed in the house doubled.’’ “Could I sleep on the sofa in the parlor ?” “No sir. Two men on the sofa now.” “Could I sleep in the hall and put my head on a door sill ?” “No sir. The hall is full of people. You would get tramped on.’’ The tar-heel scratched h's head a moment, and added: “I say, Mister, have you got a limb iu the back yard that I could stand hitched to.” The independent colt is a restive filly but if there is a man in this uni verse that can sit square astraddle of of her and never have his chew of tobacco unsettled by her wi’dest gy rat’ons, Col. Maicellus Thornton is that man. Government employes throughout the country are to be mercilessly as sessed to help Foster cmiy Ohio. Col. Ivmg, of Floyd, is the cham pion retrenchment and reform man iu the house. We have not heard of Gibson kii iog anybody yet. GEORGIA NEWS.
