Thk Riffkiucnck. —On receipt of
the news of the murder of Gen. Can
by and I’ev. Mr. Thomas by the Mo
docs, Gwwt ordered a war of exter
mination to be waged against them ;
but when an armed and lawless mob
of negroes take possession of the
court-house in Colfax, ha., hang out
a flag of truce, shoot down three
white men who advance in response,
and are attacked and routed therefor,
a virtuous howl of indignation arises
from the Republican prc*n, and the
speedy punishment of tlm white* is
demanded. A Cincinnati Sunday
school, backed by tbe pastor of the
church and the superintendent, has
so far forgotten the principles of
Christian charity a* to send a memo
rial to Grant, requesting that the at- j
tacking party of white? at Colfax W .

them.
And yet the two instances are ex
actly the same. The Indians, how
ever, have a red skin, and the negroes
n black one—the latter being the win
ning color with the Administration.
Besides, the “ man and brother” is a
voter, while the poor savage is not.
That’s the difference.

The Homestead Law.
j An attorney of Griffin, who has
I seen the decisions of the TTnited
Slates Supreme Court on the Home-
UieaJ and Relief Laws, furnishes the
j News with the following statements,
! and the points decided:
The case was a suit brought by
I Plaint iff Gunn vs. Hart, in Randolph
I Superior Court, in 18tiG. Judgnsent
‘ obtained, and execution issued tbere-
I on, and placed in the hands of the
‘Sheriff, with instructions to make the
| money. The order of levy was not
‘given until 18G8, the Sheriff refusing
I to levy because tbe defendant’s prop
! erty was covered by a Homestead,
! and tbe plaintiff applied for a manda
\ mus to compel him to levy, but tbe
! presiding Judge refused to grant it,
arid the Supreme Court of Georgia
| sustained that decision. The case
! was then carried to the Supreme
I Court of the United States, who re
versed it upon the following grounds.
Ist. That the bomestetd of 1808
was greatly larger than the one in
force at tiie time the contract was
made.
2nd. The remedy to enforce a con
tract .becomes a part of the obliga
tion; and they ajid tbautbc case un
der consideration is cltiniy ono im
pairing tbe obligations of contracts,
if not entirely annihilating it. [See
4 Dallas R., 388.]
3rd. That Georgia was one of the
original thirteen States, and never
went out of the Union, though the
lawful authority was at one time iu
abeyance.
4th. That it is true that Congress
passed upon the Constitution of
Georgia when it was “ rehabilitated,”
bnt it, did not necessarily sanction the
Homestead, elauso in so doing.
sth. That the Congress cannot by
authorization or ratification authorize
a State to pass a law in conflict with
the • Constitution of the United
States.
Gilt. That a State cannot pass a
law' impairing the obligation of a con
tract.
7tlt. That the Constitution of Geor
gia, and the laws thereof, which tend
to impair the obligation of contracts,
or destroying their remedy, was un
eonat Rational.
Bth. The judgment of the Court is,
that the Supreme Court of Georgia
he instructed to order the Superior
Court of Randolph to reverse the de
cision and order the li. fa. to pro
ceed.
hi the case of Walker vs. White
head: This was a suit brought oil a
note before January, 1870, the con
tract being made before Juno, 1805.
The defctidnnt moved to dismiss, as
no tax affidavit had been filed under
the law of Georgia, and the court
dismissed it.
The Supremo Court of the United
States, after giving the whole acts of
the Legislature, held—
1 &t. That tlio Tax Act had a pen
alty act in existence when the con
tract was made, and that tlae object
of tTiu act was not to collect old tax,
hut to “ renounce ” old dobts and de
feat their collection.
2d. That the law at the time a con
tract was made, enters into and be
comes a part of the contract, and
that the means of enforcing the con
tract, become a part of the obliga
tion.
3d. They hold that this act impairs
the obligation of a contract, and is
one of the clearest cases of a viola
tion of the (Constitution.
Mr. Justice S way no delivered both
of the opinions.

GOOD SEWS AT LAST!
HOW TO SAVE MONEY!
STARTLING DISCLOSURES!
Read Carefully. It will Astonish, Profit, and Gratify You.
The Snttiyjait world has believed for a long time that a first-class, reliable, strong, dura
ble and ujJfitSinning’Hewini; MOChirurcould be ntanufocUrud and sold torsi reasonable price.
This has lieen verified at last!
Iho W'iison Sewing Machine Company, of Cleveland, Ohio, is justly entitled to the honor
of being characterised as a public benefactor, for placing upon the market a first-class Sew
ing Mn chine in every respect, at a price w ithin the reach of all, and at tlie same time finish
ing it in artistic elegance, pleasing to the most fastidious and cultivated persons.
Agents and canvassers in the interest of other Machines represent that the Wilson Machine
Is of no account, or say it is too cheap, and will soon wear out. The reus n they so falsely
represent the Wilson Machine is because their success depends upon it; for wherever the Wil
son is introduced, no intelligent person will buy any other.
The cost of lalsir and material in the W'iison, anil all other Machines that are first-class, is
about the same, and will not vary one dollar either way. Therefore; if the Wilson Sewing
Machine Company can afford to sell their Machines at SOS, all other large Companies could
do the same.
The Wilson Sewing Machine Company is not ?o mercenary and grasping as some. * It refu
ses to join any rings or combinations for the purpose of putting up or keeping up prices.
Concerning the merits of the Wilson Sewing Machine we offer the Machine itself, and in-
vite tire severest mechanical amt expert criticism. It is m ule from the very best quality of
steel and iron. Every iiart that is liable to wear is thoroughly case-hardened, and the steel
tempered. It makes tbe Lock stitch, crjilie on both sides, Hems, Fells, Stitches, Tucks,
Outliers, Hinds, llraids, Cords, Huffs, Kuflles, etc., etc., and sews with equal facility from the
finest of fabrics to Leather.
Before buying a Sewing Machine, examine every one in the market. Then carefully ex
amine the Wilson New Underfeed. Try it; test it. Then compare it to the representations
made regarding it by its enemies, and you will be perfectly satisfied that the Wilson New
Underfeed Sewing Machine is the I test in the world !
The old and true adage is: “ ihe best is the cheapest.” It does not mean to pay the
highest ptk to got the beat.
Call anil,examine for yourself, and see that what we say is no idle talk.
