Srwinnett Herald. LAWRENGKVILLE > GA. —^ Wednesday, Aug. 13, 1879. Kentucky has gone Democratic by a large majority. Caterpillars have made their ap pearanee iu the cotton in south west Georgia. Prof. B. Mall on has resigned the super iu tendency of the public schools of Atlanta. In a difficulty near Elberton Mr. Turner was shot and stabbed by a neighbor namod Hall. There was a large excursion from Athens to Atlanta last Friday. There were two traius-one for the colored people and the other for whites. A tramp is loafing around tho country who claims to be a grand eon of Patrick Henry, nephew of Wade Hampton, and bosom friend of Alex. Stephens. Warren P. Lovett, of Atlanta, killed a man namod Reynolds, in Merriwether county last week. Lovett has been bound over to answer for the homicide. It appears that the cause of com plaint against Capt. Nelms as prin cipal keeper of the penitentiary, is that he received a considerable sum from the lessees for turning over convicts. Sitting Bull came into the Uni ted States territory recently on a hunting expedition. Gen. Miles immediately went in pursuit of him, and has driven his tribe across the boundary. The Phonograph claims Gregg Wright among the professional bachelors of the press gang. How many in family does Christopher require a man to have before he is allowed to be a married man ? Jefferson is still on the anxious sent about a rail mad, but the en terprise seems to be in an uncer tain situation. Sometimes it is to be run to Flowery Branch, then to Gainesville, Harmony Grove, &c. The Forest NeWB states that a •on of Mr. Jesse Cook was bitten by a highland moccasin. Wo rise to inquire if the boy referred to is a son of what is known in this community as the “American koss.” A new trial sea» been refused in the ease of VN' haler, vs. Gen. Sher i*lan who was sued for damages Sot taking the plaintiff's planta tion and turning it over to anoth er party just after the close of the war, The yellow fever is increasing in Memphis, and the board of health have declared it epidemic. If the country needed any assn sauce on this subject the doctors havo considerately trade the sol emn announcement, after the pub lie had rendered its verdict. The New Orleans physicians have adopted, a resolution njMacun cirg that there is not now a single case of yellow fever in that city, and there in no danger of an epi demic arising this sutamer from past od future causes. That the only danger is in the- introduction of foreign cases. Mrs. Sam. Bard appeals to the Masonic Fraternity and the Odd Fellows for assistance. She was appointed Post Mistress at Baton Rouge, La., but on account of an investigation of tha affairs of the ©ffico, has not been able to get possession and is in distress in Washington City. The Gumming Clarien boasts that on the first j Tuesday there wore more people ia town than there had been for six months,.and not a single drunk man or one who had the smell upon him. The revenue-officials must have been stepping around lively over there. The body of Joseph Standing, the Mormon elder, who was killed in Whitfield county, has been re ceived at Suit Lake City. Thebu rial was attended by an- immense eonccursc of citizens, anil the leaders took advantage of the oc casion to stir up the enmity of theix people against the Gentiles. The Legislature. Wo dropped in to see the “law givers last week, and found them busily engaged in introducing bills. There seems to be no end to the introduction of bills, two thirds of them, ns a matter of course, being local and special.— The Constitutional Convention at tempted to horn off a portion of the flood that pours into each house, but its efforts were ineffect ual, and tho important measures of general interest lie undisposed of while the local measures that frequently not half a dozen men have any interest, in, is being pressed for action. The practice is becoming more common each year of going to the Legislature for everything. If the decisions of a Court is unsatisfactory and the parties are able, the next proposi tion is to go before the Legisla ture for relief It would have been much better if the Leins D lature had stuck to the letter of the Constitution and not consider ed a single local bill that had not been introduced as required by that instrument, but thero were too many axes to grind, and the occupation of at least two thirds of the body would have been gone. Much valuable time is wasted in long winded discussions that prof it nobody. We sat in the gallery and watched members making high sounding speeches and not half dozen members paying any attention, while the clerks chatted quietly and tho speaker hold long conversations with friends. This costs the people about two hun dred dollars an hour. Over forty days of the adjourned session has run, and yet there is no limit to debate and the introduction of bills. That member who introdu ces and works through a resolu tion cutting off debate to five min utes and shuts the door on the in troduction of any future bills, will be a public benefactor. Macon & Brunswick R R.—A bill has passed the Senate provid ing for a lease of tho Macon & Brunswick R. R., which is now the property of the .State, the an nual rental to be not less than six ty thousand dollars. The lessees are further required to put tho road in good order and to com pleto the line to Atlanta. This will give a double line from Atlan ta to Macon and the coast. The project has been long discussed of building a road from Macon to intersect the Georgia Rail Road at Covington, and by this means break down the monopoly of tho Central Rail Road that has the Ma con & Brunswick bottled up, so far as through freights are con cerned. The bill further provides for a sale of the road to the lessees for one million one hundred and twenty five thousand dollars. Here is a road that cost the State eighteen hundred and fifty thousand dollars besides the amount paid in by the stockhold ers, and yet it is proposed to sell it for the sum for nearly one half of what 4 it cost the State. It strikes us that it would bo much better to put the road up for sale than to fix so low a price and then only allow the lessees to purchase at that price. Why not open the ; door to all bidders and not re strict it to the lessees. It is prob able that there is a very largo job in this affair. What about that charge that money was paid to newspapers to play mum in reference to the in vestigations at the Capitol ? Chris topher, of the Phonograph, says that he was offered money not to write an editorial on the report of the committee. While the State officers are being brought to taw, it might be as well to examine the bank check business. wi The attorney for i efferson Davis says that tho bequest of Mrs. Dor s«y will not amount to more than thirty thousand dollars. And that she was induced to give it to him to enable him to complete the history of the war on which he is engaged. The relatives of Mrs. Dorsey are preparing to contest the validity of the will on the ground of undue influence. The are 701 inmates in the Lu natic Asylum. InvcsliKUlioK tho Depart- * incuts. A resolution was adopted last l Friday appointing * committees to examine the offices of the Principal Keeper of the Penitentiary, State School Com missioner, and the Treasury. The air is thick around the Capitol with all sorts of rumors and char ges ot corruption and speculation Perhaps this grows out of the im penchmentof the Comptroller Gen cavil who had always borne a fine character as an honest and faith fill officer, and the fact that suffi cient evidence was found to justi fy his impeachment, leads the pnb lie to export developments to bo made in other departments that may be damaging. We know nothing of the truth or falsity of those charges. The fact that high public officials are openly charged with corrupt prac tices. is of itself sufficient to justi fy an investigation, not only on account of the State’s interest,hnt in justice to the officars. It is due to them, if they have managed their offices faithfully, that tho Legislature should say so, and if they have not. it is time the pnb lie knew it, and either that their resignation be demanded or they be impeached. Tho State University. We are glad to note that the State University is gaining ground and is in a more prosperous condi tion than for years. Wo have been unable to understand why this institution has not been more successful since tho war. It has had extraordinary advantages, in the way of appropriations from tho State and tho landscrip fund an 1 a long list of alumni scattered over the State and the South of prominent men, who have taken a deep interest in its welfare, and yet it has been notorious that young men have been going to in stitutions of learning in other States, and denominational col leges in the State have been more successful. Under the manage ment of Chancellor Mell, the Uni versity promises to regain its lost ground and rank not only in its curriculum, but in tho number of students, with the Universities of other States. A portion of tho landscrip fund will be devoted to aiding schools at Dahlonega, Millegeville, Thom asvilleaml Cuthbert. It is expect ed these branches will act as feed ers to tho college. Ex Gov. R. B. Bullock comes to the front to say that he does not rejoice in any disgrace that may befall tho State. He says : I ask space in your valuable pa per to say that so far as my ac quaintanco extends there is no disposition among republicans to rejoice over any disgrace that may befall our State. We feel as keen ly as do other good citizens, the misfortunes which have followed as a necessary consequence in the wake of the uurestraiuod flood of villifiention, misrepresentation and unsustained accusation which was heaped upon republican State offi cials and which overwhelmed the republican administration. The present unfortunate condition of State affairs is the legitimate re suit of that mistaken public seuti ment which justified and applaud ed false accusation against State officials, and if the painful posi tion in which our State is now placed shall arouse a fooling in tho public mind that will close the mouths of slanderers, and create a public opinion that will condemn any man who, without proof, as sails the honor of a State official it will be some recompense for this impeachment disgrace. The deluded negroes who were induced to go to Kan«as last win ter, under the fair promises that they would find it a Garden of Eden without the flaming sword, and that all they liad to do was to pluck and cat, are trying to work their way bock, begging rations from the government, and making themselves a nuisance to every city or neighborhood they reach. The men who were engaged iu decoying them off ought to be compelled to share their lot or feed and clothe them until they can make another crop. Avoid using those remediescou taining Opium, Morphia, etc ; but when the baby is sick use Dr. Bull’s Baby Syrup—perfectly safe and always reliable. Price only I lid cents a bottle. Jlie I m pouch incut of the / Comptroller. \ Last week the House of J\opre .scutatives preferred articles of im peachment against Wushiugtofc L. Goldsmith, who lias been Cojnp troler General of the Sta e since 1872, for high crimes and misde meanors in office. The impeach mont is based on an investigation made by a committee appointed by the Horse of Representatives to investigate the wild land de partment of that office and the general management of the office. There are sixteen articles of irn peachment and a number of sped fientions in several articles. He is charged with issuing fi fas against unreturned wild land be fore the time authorized by law ; with illegally collecting costs on fi fas issued by him ; with issuing fraudulent fi fas, and transferring them and against land upon which the tax had been paid; that money which should have gone into the Treasury for tho benefit of the owners of wild lands has been left in tho hands of the purchasers ; that he paid illegally the sum of $8,176.73, without warrant from the Governor; that he held in his hands eleven thousand one hun dred and eighty nine dollars con trary to law ; that he made false and fraudulent returns of the amount of money received by him ; that he kept in his employ A. J. Bell and J. M. Goldsmith, who were engaged in speculating in wild lands, and that said J. M. Goldsmith falsified the records of the office; that he failed to pay in to the Treasury $7,460.79 collect ed as insurance tax for 1878; and the aura of $3,572.50 as iusurance fees; that he made illegal deposits of the public money in tho Geor gia Banking and trust company ; that lie used the public money for his private purposes ; that he eva ded and refused to furnish evi dence demanded by a committee of the House. Tho committee submitted tho . following resolu tions, which were adopted by the House; The committee therefore report and deijiand,. by this majority, that the said W. L. Goldsmith, Comp troller General as aforesaid, be dealt with according to the laws of this State in such, cases made and provided for the misfeasances and malfeasances in the exercise of his office and comprised in the foregoing articles and specifica tions, whereby and on account whereof lio is guilty of high crimes and misdemeanors in office. To that end they report to tho House the testimony in their so id investigation had, with the state moots, exhibits and copy papers thereto attached, and also rescript of the proceedings of the commit tee throughout its sittings for the purpose of said investigation. And they submit the following resolutions, and recommend their adoption by the House, to wit: Jit solved, That W. L. Goldsmith, Comptroller General of the State of Georgia, be impeached of high crimes and misdemeanors in of fice. Resolved, That the accompany ing testimony, statements, exhib its and rescript of proceedings, with this report, be referred to the Committee on the Judiciary, with instructions to prepare and report without unnecessary delay, suita We articles of impeachment of said W. L Goldsmith, Comptroller General. Resolved, That a committee of seven of this House be appointed and instructed to proceed at once to the bar of the Senate of Geor gia, and there, in the name of the House of Representatives and all tho people of tho State of Georgia, impeach W. L. Goldsmith, Comp troller General, of high crimes and misdemeanors in office, and to in form that body that formal arti cles of impeachment will in due time bo presented, and to request the Senate to take such order in the premises as they deem appro print a. All of which is respectfully sub mitted. C. D. Phillips, Chairman, It. L. McWhorter, lk M. Davis, George It. Sibley, R. H. Cannon, W. J. Pike, A. C. Westbrook, W. T. Irvine. In pursuance of these resolu tion* a committee was appointed to notify the Senate of the im penchment proceedings. The following members wore elected by the House to prosecute the case befovo the Senate: H. G. Turner, of Brooks. Wm. M Hammond, ot Thomur <’, D. Phillip:-, of Coll. Ji. JI. Davis, of Houston. Pollii 11, of Jefferson. W. J. Pike, of Jackson. Adams, of Chatham. The Senate t has adopted rules for thegovermnent of the Court during the trial, and notified Chief Justice Warner to be in readiness to preside. The Defendant will be represen ted by Hopkins, Glenn and Capt. Harry Jackson. The trial will be a long and tedious investigation, and will prolong the session of the Legislature. The effect of a verdict of conviction will be to re move the Comptroller General from office and to disqualify him to hold office in the State. m i ■ in 1 i-rurnj Hew A dvertisements. To R, R.
