Ail<m.v, Ft b. 12ih, 1876. noth houses of the Legislature hav.*, during the past week, been holding tlwee sessions a day and tlm coiinivrtta* • have been woiltinir like beavers to close-top the business bv Monday night,which is the end ol the f >rty days. T lie work of legislation, which is liecessaiily slow is too frequently postponed until t/lic two- last vVeeks, and tlien important measures are honied through without that consideration which their importance demands, There are several hills whirl) have passed both houses, but have been so amended and altered as to re quire another discussion and again occupy time that should be devoted to hi D that have not been consul' ered. Among these ore ike conven tion hill and dog law. The most important bill acted on during the last week was the educational bill inti educed by Judge Speer, ol Spalding. This hill, after a very heated discussion,passed the house, provides an entire change in the present school system. The present hoard is abolished and a new board consisting ol the ordi nary and two commissioners to be appointed by the J tidga of i lie Supe rior court upon recommendation of the Grand Jury. These three consti* lute the boaul of education. The Grifinaiy is the only oise receiv ing pay, and he is only paid five cents per hundred words for the recording. The defect in this sys tem will he that competent men will not have tin* position of member* of this board, with all the duties which devolves upon them, without some Compensation. The fact is,that the time has passed in our history when men are willing lev “work for noth ing and board themselves.’’ The bill to abolish the lottery' in Atlanta lias passed the Senate and much feeling has heel) amused by the animadversions of Senator lies' ter and the newspaper controveisy which has followed. The House has not vet ac'ed on the bill. The committee appointed to in vestigate the chargo of ccriup ion against members of the general assembly of 1871 closed their labots in. lasi Kiilluv, and will submit their report and ihc evidence <>f bo'h bowses on Monday. A great many rumors arc in ciiculaiioo as to de velopments made, some hue anti some false. It may not be impro| er to say that the report will not slew that any member was bribed to support the lease. There are other developments however that will lit interesting reading, Gen. Gordon, by request deliver ed s* speech in She ball of the House of Repieseirtulives fast week. Like all of his speeches it was well de livered and has been very generally applauded as a Calm and statesman like review of the situation, lie favors the call of a convention im mediate! v, and-gives as one of the main reasons in support of his opin ion that the very iodescieet speech of Gen Toombs has done ns incalcu lable injury. A bill lias passed the Uouse making provisions lor the proper guaiding of convicts and providing for a penitentiary system for a cer tain class. li is regaided as tloubt i ful whether it will be able to prfss the Senate. There are some features in it very objectionable. It is hard , to devise any plan to which grave objections may net be urged. A bill litis passed the house le - qiiiriiig tax collectors to remain at the court house of the county for | five dais immediately before closing I their hooks. A hill has been pending tor some time to loan tinkered it ot the Slate to the Marietta and North (Ja., Railroad. I his bill only provides fur the endorsement by the State of the bonds of this company Ibr a sufficient amoijnt to pay for Iron, alter all the other woik was done. The amount asked would not,when the road was completed have excell ed $250,000. It was however de feated by n small vote. An important bill has passed the Senate ami is now pending before the house. It authorizes Judges of the Superior court to grant one ne*v trial upon legal principles, wiliest the case going to tin- Supreme Cot|rt ll restores as lar as practicable the appeal trial without violating tire Constitution ami without the incon venience arising from the old prac tice. It has been adversely repot ed on by House C'onminee on Judi.-i --arv, but it is to be Imped it will yet pas*. A very stiong effort has been made to get a bill though author izing tlie Governor to issue new bonds to take the place of ihe endors el bonds of the Stale of the Macon A Brunswick Railroad.A ,-ul stitute was on Saturday adopted by the Hotter?, allowing only the interest to he funded. Ihe Governor has Bins far ap proved but few bills, and these are mostly of a local character. In your next issue I will try t<> give a list ol all the general acts which have become laws.

The deceased at the time ol his death was 72 years, 5 months and 7 days old. He was born in York Dis trict, S. C.. but iu his early youth with his | limits and to Georgia, and at the age of about 21 he married Elizabeth Maloney and settled down on Jackson Creik, in Berkshire District; where, or near where, lie continued to re side up to his death, which as above stated, occurred suddenly from apoplexy on the 10th inst. He has raised a large and respectable family, ali of whom are married and a majority of whom are citi zens of this county. He was a man of strong, hut uncultured intellect, which he I demonstrated by his rapid accumulation ! of wealth, but most ot which was lost bv the results of the late war. He had one besottinor sin over which the mantle of c'nrity should now be for ever spread for but few of our race pass the journey of life without demonstrating even more than one fault. Respectfully, R, i Nokckosß. Ga., Feb. 19th, lblf». ! Sister Sarah K. Horton, lormrrly Whitdeparted th.i.v life on the 27th January 1 »7U, being about thirty two years of age- She was converted at old Prospect Church at the age of twelve years, and joint if. Ihe Methodist Protes tant Church, in winch communion she lived until about nine or ten years ngo* and then join".! the M. E. ChnTh South, at Level Creek, with her husband, in whose Communion she lived and died. She had suffered for thirteen months with consumption, but notwithstanding the body sufti red, she was uot known to complain, but was content to snfi. r the will of God. as she often remarked to the writer during the last year. I visited her several times—she was always resigned, and the nearer she ap proached her hour of departure, the brighter did her Christianity shine. Two days before her death she told me that all was right. She often asked that the song commencing, “Oh ! Sing to Me of Heaven.’ be sung, which was . complied with, and she was happy ell th e while. She lived n Christian life as her neighbors testify; 11 good mother, a good wife and a consistent Church member and Christian. She is lost to all on eiv'tli now but her Christian friends expect to meet her again. She left six children to follow her example, an 1 we hope to meet her in Heaven. NEW ADVERTISEMENTS.
