The State Hoad Investigating
Committee.
Tlii.s GommiUce, of which oflr
Senator, lion. M. A. Candler, is
Chairman* is unearthing some of
the frauds of the Railroad ling,
and it lias created a considerable
flatter among those who have
feathered their nest so snugly dul’-
ing Bullock’s s*»d Blodgetl’s reign
I’i v has In f"' bound over on two
additional v -rants, and as iie is
too small a Fry to have any hack,
ers, he boards at the expense of
the county. Fry did m t steal all
the earning* rtf the W. d~ A. Road~~
Ije was too small a fry for that!
It is the ring leaders, the boss
plunderers that the people want to
see exposed and compelled to dis
gorge, a* well as the small fry.
We know it is generally the Case,
that the poor vagabond who steals
a shirt, goes to the penitentiary
and elmin gang, while he who
steals a million is simply a defaul
ter, whom accident and the fall of
stocks has ruined. lie quietly
sneaks out of the country, goes to
Europe and squanders his ill got
ten gains in riotous living.
This Committee have not stop
ped with Fry. They have made a
grab nt “Fatty" ilairis—keep
reaching higher gentlemen, but
keep an eye on I’atty. Well do
we remember low lie, a mere un
der-strapper of Bullock, attempt
ed to domineer over the Legisla
ture of Ceorgia. He was the fig
ure head of just such a scene as
had never disgraced Georgia be
fnre and we rust never will again.
Let us see whether this “Jupiter
tonaiis*’ served Bullock for his love
of country or for the “flesh pots of
Egypt.’’ As you have set in for a
reckoning, bring them all to taw
and let the courts determine who
falls behind the dead line ; and It
the countiy see who, of all that
ling, can come out without the
••smell of lire upon him.”

Mr William Lacey, who former

died on Friday lust, in the one
hundredth year of his age. We
learn that the sawmill bc-lonminr
to Mrs. Buffington wan destroyed
by lire a few nights since, sup
posed to have been the work i.f an
incendiary. On Friday night the
train due lu re at 0:12 was de
tained until about 3 o’clock Satur
day morning, owing to a runoff,
at Buford, caused by a misplaced
switch. We learn from a gentle
man, who was present all the time,
that though it was intensely cold,
and snowing all the while, not an
oath or profane ny'lable was ut

were engaged in setting matters
to right. This speaks well for the

Too Good Company for Me.—
One evening last summer a lady who
belongs to the editorial staff of one
of the leading dailies of New York,
had been detained by office duties
until rather a late hour. Living
on the heights of Fulton Ferry,it was
not much of a venture to go home
without an escort, and sue started.
On the boat, standing outside en
joying the refreshing luecze afier a
day’s toil, she perceived a gentleman
(?) leaning over the guards, but she
said not lung.
"Are yon alone?” said he, ns the
boat neared ihe slip.
“No, sir,” said she; and without
further interruption, when the boat
touched, she stepped off.
“I thought you were Alone?" said
the fellow, stepping to her side again.
“I am not,” replied tlie lady.
“Why, 1 don’t sec any one; who
is with von?’’
“God Almighty and the angles,
•sir. I am never alone,"
•‘You keep ioo good .-oinpany for
inc, madam; good night!" And he
shot for a Fifth Avenue ear, then
nearly a block a way.
The investigation into ilia corrup

Inis not boon already established, into

and the Kndical members as counsel
f r the defense. As these latter pen
tleiwen are declared friends and sup
porters of tho Administration, and
| the several individuals accused of
j barefaced fraud and shameless rascal
ity have likewise friends and suppor
ters, if not in the person, in the im
mediate household of the President,
it is possihfu that the two have made
common cause to defeat the opera

St. Louis, January 24, 1872. —
The city of St. Louis is just now
greatly exercised over the refusal
of tie proprietor of the Planters’
Hotel t» entertain or harbor Fred.
Douglass, the celebrated colored
orator and Abolitionist. Mr.
Dottgla-s came to the hotel yester
day and entered his name on the
register the same as any guest,
and shortly afterwards came and
said he would like some dinner.
Idle clerk remarked in substance
tliut he thought the Planters’ 110
tel would be damned before he
could get any dinner there, and
then pointed to tl.c book, where
his name had been erased.
“What is the meaning of this
outrage ?” sternly asked the old
man, pulling indignantly at his
distinyve gray moustache.
“It means simply this ; that the
Hunters’ House don't kf*ep nig
gers; if you want any thing you
will have to go elsewhere,” said
the intelligent clerk.
Here the crowd thickened, and a
rush was made towards the book
to see the name of the man who
was the subject of the row. Each
man, as he saw the name, either
gasped approval or grunted a s
sent. The majority grunted. The
crowd read upon tho book simply
the name, “Fred. Douglass, Wash
ington, D. C.”
This name seemed to be enough
to damn the man in the estimation
ofnine out of ten who road and
sympathized with ttie clerk.
Mr. Douglass made a short
speech, in which lie denounced in
very indignant terms the proced
ure. He said that he had traveled
over all the civilized countries of
Europe, had been received by the
highest, and nowhere had lie been
where lie had met with such shame
ful treatment.
The crowd listened, and sneer
ed, and laughed, when Mr. Doug
lass retired tu find quarters else
where.
What tiik Warlike Prefara
tionu M uan. — A Washington cor
respondent of the Sun says the
Administaation mean war with
Spain snd the conquest of Cuba,
lie says :
The truth is that the War and
the Navy Departments are busy,
and these straws show the direc
tion of the wind—enough at any
rale for the five senses of the rep.
rcsontatiVes of their country. A
large number of 200 pound Parrot
guns have just been sent to Key
West and other Southern ports,
and others—in fact all that are
obtainable—are ordered to tire
same destinations. All the ports
on our Southern seaboard are be
ing inspected and put in order.
Forts Pickens, Pulaski and Bar
rancas arc being fortified, and
Pensacola is being thoroughly
strengthened, so as to serve as a
rendezvous for both sea and land
forces. Every available vessel of
our navy is being put in lighting
trim,
When President Grant thinks
that our coast defenses are in prop
er condition to resist any sudden
attack of Spain, should she be
crazy enough to attempt any, be
will probably demand that Spain
at once comply with her promises
to abolish slavery in Cuba, and
that she immediately liberate the
Chinese She had kidnapped. Spain,
of course, is utterly unable to do
this, and will have to pay the pen
alty of having for three years past
pretended to own Cuba. Tho pen
alty will be the loss of the island
to Spain, cither by allowing the
Cubans to drive her out by them
selves, or by Grant’s taking pos
session of it.
It i 6 well known thatGcn. Sickles
warmly approves this policy.—
lie lias no idea of returning to
Madrid, and confesses that the
Spaniards have humbugged him.
Fire in Conyers. —Conyers was
the scene of a destructive confla
gration en Wednesday night. Tlie
fire (caused by pieces of wood
rolling from the fire-place in the
absence of the proprietor) origin
ated about 12 o’clock, in the drug
store of Dr. Stewart, and rapidly
spread to the adjoining wooden
buildings. The flumes were not
arrested until seven buddings had
been destroyed (two of which
were brick buildings) situated be
tween the railroad and Commerce
street. The sufferers were Dr.
Stewart, druggist, loss f-3,000;
M. F. Swann, groceiies, loss <>soo;
J. 11. Allman A Son, dry goods
and groceries; McCord R Cle
meats, dry goods and groceries;
Knight & White, dry goods and
groceries; O. 11. Turner, druggist ;
McCallis, confectioner, and Dr.
Travis, physician. '1 lie flames had
entirely subsided at 4 o’clock
The loss in buildings is estimated,
at from $12,000 to $15,000. Nei
ther goods nor buildings were pro
tected by insurance, but the goods
were generally removed before
the fire bad destroyed the build
ings. The slice house of Messrs.
A. W. R E. F. Edwards barely es
caped. The excessive heat caused
the rosin to flow from the timbers.
The enterprising proprietors, how
ever, had removed all their goods
and even the shelves of the store.—

Destructive Fire at Warren
ton. —The Macon Telegraph and
Messenger says :
From our traveling agent, Mr.
Allen, we learn that Warrcnton
was visited by a most disastrous
fire or. Sunday night last. It
broke out in the storehouse occu
pied by Mr. (J. \V. Phelps, about
10 o’clock, and made such rapid
progress that Mr. P. and liis clerk,
who Were sleeping in the building,
barely escaped with their lives,
being forced to get through an
tipper story window. The clerk,
whose name we did not learn, was
painfully burned. The entire
block, consisting of five houses,
was burned. Phillip’s loss was
covered by insurance to the
amount of $11,500. Mayers and
Kitchens were insured for 11,200
—loss not ascertained. J. L.
Burkhalter was insured for $4,000
—loss, $5,000. John Thompson
lost about SI,OOO, and no insur
ance. A few others, whose names
Mr. Allen could not ascertain, sus
tained some loss, but how much,
and what the estimated aggregate
loss, Mr. A. did not learn.
£3T So general has the public
confidence become in Dr. Ayer’s
medicines, and so great the demand
for them, that unprincipled villains
are attempting to deceive the unwary
by imposing upon them their worth
less nostrums under a similarity of
name. Cherry Pectoral Lozenges,

Drops, Ayer’s Fever and Ague Cure.
Dr. Ayer’ Indian Pills, etc., &c.,
(none of which are of Dr. Ayer’s
manufacture or composition) are
specimens of this villainy and deceit.
They not only defraud the sick of
their money but of their health,
or the recovery of their health,
which is far more important than
money. From actual counterfeits
tho people are protected by law
wliich the Doctor promptly enforces,
but these evasions sometimes elude

She Was taken sick in May last, very

fered a grent deal of pain until August.
She saw herself a lost sinner and sought
pardon of Him who is the giver of all
good, and obtained a hope in In r Lord
and Master. The leaders oi the church
called to see her ami she talked freely
of the happy change, and wished to
unite with the Mount Zion church. She
being so bad, and not able to sot up, the
ordinance was omitted, and while she
siifi'cred as Job, of old, in the flesh, her
faith was strong in the Lord, and in her
last words said: Mother, don’t grieve
after me. I am going to a better world.
On tho 24th her remains were taken to
the family grave-yard and was met by
many of her Sunday-school class and
many other friends to mourn her loss.—
The coffin being opened for the last sight

remarks being made on the occasion, the
body was returned to its mother dust.
