| We ltave read recently in the public
journals of the State several attacks
made on our Governor for employing
and associating with the Attorney. Gen
oral other counsel to represent the State
in cases where she is a party litigant.
The boldest and most vigorous piece
condemning this practice which we
have seen is fromjthe Sparta Islimaelile
(of last week. It iB not denied that
■such a practice is in accordance with
(law. That paper says “doubtless it is.’
[The fact is the law giving the Govern
Jor discretionary power to employ agents]
(outside of official ranks to look after:
[the interest of the State whenever he l
|dccmcs it necessary for the public good,
[is too plain to be douhted Nor is it <le-]
jnied that there are ample precedents
(for this practice both in this State aod
[others. It follows then as a natural se ]
Ifjtteuee that it is the (hit?/ of the G"V-i
i. inor to exercise this power whenever
(t he interest of the State will he snhserv
led thereby. Hut the Lthmu/tilc says
3 the office of Attorney General was cs
Itablishcd that the Stale mi. lit alwaysj
(have counsel to conduct its cases (or!
jit.” This is true ; hut dons it follow
(that this o t cer never needs assistance !
Sin the conduct of such Cases ? The hli \
I mailite argues he dops not if he is n
■ competent officer. This by no tncati
[follows even if he is an officer of the
ftineft Icunl mind— that is of the best
'material (hat Cau bo had. Thero is
[probably as miiclt egolistn in (ho pro-
Ffcasion of law as there is in other pro
fessions and occupations Hut wo have
’nevoT vet heard of any member of the!
*
ibar who contended that ho cottid al-l
I wavs conduct any and every case un
!der all ’circumstances as well hy hiui
[self, as be could together with any as
isooiatc ninons his brethren. When we
[jo hear of such a one it will be j>rima\
j furir evidence to ur tnind of a con
[ceiled fool. It is very < ften the case'
(that the best lawyers are not as welf
(posted on some branches of the law, ori
lon the practice in some of our nuttier
Lus Courts as thors even of inferior
caliber. It is sometimes true that the
State has cases in different Courts ad
the same time, and no one man can
properly look after all. It is often that,
there arc State cases involving such!
voluminous facts and ye many and such
intricate points of law that no one mind
[can delve to the bottom of all—facts nndj
[law—in time for trial without assist- 1
[ance. It is often true that local couosj
?-el are necessary for a varioty o( ren-i
hoiie. iet to none of such cases, ami
[lu a hundred cithers of as weighty read
[sons, where momentous interests of thej
State are involved nnd where a ntim.-:
iber of the Htvcst legal talent in the
.country are art iyvd against her, does it
buvrr become necessary to associate with!
jibe Attorney General other counsel in]
Wder to preserve, secure, and render!
>sa(or the rights of the commonwealth
!Anv candid mind who knows anything J
hibuut the intricacies of law must admit |
such a necessity sometimes exists. We!

! lint wo have been viewing the qties.
;tion upon the supposition that the office
|of Alt.-Gen. can be and is always filled
Iby the l/eat. lawyers. The tru'h is, how
lever, that it is very seldom if ever the
lease thatthe greatest minds in the pro
jfession can be induced to accept the of'-

ito have his office. They will not ac
cept it because they do not Want to
's nk money by the operation. This be
iing true, the argument above applies
(with the greater force.
We do not contend that tire Attor
ney-General can not ordinarily attend
to eases for the State. lie doubtless
[can. Nor do we conteod that the Gov
ernor always properly 'employs special
counsel. He nmy wt may not have!

[which lie lias abused this potter. Hui|
;we do contend he might act Very iui-j
[properly unless he sometimes exercised:
it. We are inclined to thiuk that most!
,if not alltlvc recent articles on the suh
’ject are a hit at the course pursued by
"the Executive in the recent Kailroadj
cases. The question* involved in those:
Seises, the amounts involved, and thej
Barray of legal talent against the State,
(certainly authorized the Governor to
with the State’s officer a jur
list who has tern from early lile Otic of

“whose integrity is as incorruptible as

I Atlanta, Ga., Aug, S6, 1879.
I Another member of the Legisla
iture’sgone. Sunday morning at G
(o’clock Hon. Jacob C. Clements of
■the 15th Senatorial District died,
(after a long and painful illness from
(typhod malarial fever. He was 63
■years old, a quiet, unostentatious
jtnan, who bad many friends. This
Sis the fourth member of the Geper
ial Assembly who has died this year.
| Last Thursday the impeachment
(trial of Washington L. Goldsmith
■ was called. The Senate was organ
jized into a high Court of impcach
(ment by Judge Warner who was
§soletnn and sombre. Several of the
(Senators offered excuses and asked]
■to be relieved from sitting on the
(case. The Chief Justice overrule 1
(all such objections and put the
(question to the Senate, who sus
(tained his decision. The Court
(was organized and the six mana-
Bjers of the House, Messers Turner,!
■ Hammond, Davis, Polhill, Pike!
land Adams came in. Soon after j
Iwards the defendant, accompanied!
is by his counsel, Hopkins and Glenn,!
[Candler and Thompson; and Jack-j
(son and Lumpkin also entered. He!
iseemed melancholy. His position!
|w:is enough to justify such a feel-J
ling. The managers announced!
(ready for trial but the defendant!
|nsked that ten days more be gran-!
Ited him To prepare his defence.!
SThcre was some objection to this
|on the part of State but ttme was
|linally granted ami next Monday,
first of September was set as
|the time for beginning the trial. Its
'iwill continue three weeks or more 1
|There is a great mass of evidence onl
|both sidts and the rules of proceed I
tore are such as will make the trial
.jdrng in uninteresting slowness.
jPublic opinion is unsettled on this
I think Mr Goldsmith!
ihas been treated with remarkable
ifirmness both by the press and the
generally. In spite of the
ifgrave charges against him ; in spite
isof that terrible arraignment which
jrings the denunciationsfromc near
ly a score of articles of impeaeh-
Jmcnt which have been prepared
him, the general feeling
Jseems to he that of patience, an un
willingness to form a judgment be-
Efore both sides are fairly heard.
