Perhaps lie did not fully twaliaalhc sitnat ion-—perhaps he only felt that he held to his heart the ono heiag who could make life desirable for him, and that death, with her clasped ie his arms, was preprahlo to life without her. Certain H was that he looked about him and ntcd how mothers, clasping fra|epHy their children, rushed wildly*hero and there, sending up heartrending petitions for help which was never to come; how children dung to the skirts of tlielr distracted mothers, Mobbing piteously, more in sympathy than fear; how a fair young girl, whose face bo had remarked as his glance swept the deck a few hours previous, knelt with clasped hands and uplifted eycn, and dark hair streaming over her whit© dross, mak ing a picture the bounty of whioh his artistic, eye fnily took in; how men mingled oaths whh the prayers of women, and all within sound of the breakers, whose roar rose high above tbs tumult.

And so, calmly, ns if the greedy waves were not, like some maddened beast of prey, rushing on, impatient to devour them, they spoke of their lifelong love—its near fruition in the home to which they woe going.

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 . ‘Htufited dow# to thejhist feat* atftf j that swift justice he dealt out” to 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. — ■ E. C.

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.

JONES, Columbus, Ga. my2-lm 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.
