FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 17, 1871.
_ Bullock and the School Fund.
Says the Atlanta Vent/Uul ion: Bul
lock and his faction tried to make great
capital out of an assumed zeal in free
education.
Let us see how this zeal showed itself.
It took every dollar of the old school
lend out oi the Treasury for Bullock to
squander. For this fund there are now
ia the Treasury 8268,000 of bonds de
posited, which are so much waste paper.
A batch of 8332,000 of the same sort of
bonds was sent North by Bullock to be
negotiated, and have come back to the
Treasurer’s office unused as far as we
know, and also cancelled. This makes
the SOOO,OOO of those school bonds.
Not only this, but the last Legislature
provided that all of tho poll tax, liquor
tax and circus tax, and half of ths Stnte
Road income, should consticuto the
school fund. Bullock and his crowd
have used every dollar of this money
without depositing a solitary bond in the
Treasury therefor, in conformity with
law.
Thus, over half a million dollars of
school money has been used by this
Badical administration that has gassed
so boisterously about its interest in edu
cation. And this amount is ono of Bul
lock’s contributions to tho State debt.
Verily, it is a long lane, this, that
leads down the financial course of our
late Rufus. Wc hope to get to the turn
some day. .

FROM ATLANTA
Monday, Nov. Gtb, 1871.
Both Houses were engaged to day,
in reporting bills, principally of a local
nature, which we have not room to pub
lish.
SENATE.
Tuesday, November 7th, 1871.
The Senate met, I’rcsident Trammel
in the chair. Prayer by Rev. Armiuiiß
Wright. The Journal read and approv
ed.
Bills were read the fust time.
By Mr. Hillyer: To require non-resi
dent liquor dealers to take out licences.
By Mr. Nunually.- To incorporate
the Mechanics’ ami Traders’ Bauk oi
Georgia.
By Mr. Peddy: To incorporate the
LaGrange and Birmingham Railroad,
and grant certain powers and privileges
to the same.
By Mr. ltccse : To compensate Ordi
naries, Sheriffs and Clerks, of the Supe
rior Courts ; also, to provide for taking
bonds of public officers, aud qualifying
the same.
By the President: To regulate trials
before juries in certain caseß, providing
that a requested charge which is reject
ed shall not be read to the jury ; also,
to prescribe the manner of incorporating
hills of exceptions, ami for other purpos
es ; also to amend section 2534 of the
Code, miking personal property pur
chased bona fide and held for two years
to be discharged from all lieus.
Bills on third reading :
A bill to repeal tho Usury Laws in
this State, and to fix the rate of interest
(at 7 per cent.) where the same is not
fixod by agreement of parties.
Mr. Matthews offered an amendment
providing the rate of interest agreed up
on shall not exceed 12 per cent.
Mr. Brown advocatod tho passage of
the bill on the ground that it would
tend to reduce the rate of interest prac
tically, and that money should bo sub
- ject to contract as other commodities.
Mr. Hinton opposed the bill because
it would divert capital from such invest
ments as would benefit the public, would
advance the interests of a few at the cx
pense of the many, and the law which it
proposes to repeal has stood the test of
many years trial.
- Mr. Brock spoke in favor of the bill,
Mr. Matthews, also, favored the bill,
Mr. Hillyer proposed an amendment
that the rate of iuterest shall be fixed at
7 per cent., which may he changed by
agreement, in writing, of parties for a
time not longer than ono year, aud il
the debt shall not be paid at the expi
ration of that time, 5 per cent, only shall
be collected thereon ; and insisted that
this amendment Would mako it to the
creditors’ interest to collect the debt at
the end of the year, and to promote the
circulation of capital, and would break
the force of the innovation.
Mr. Brown opposed tbc amendment.
The amendment of Mr. Matthews was
lost. The amendment of Mr. Hillyer
was lost. The bill was passed.
A bill to provide for filling the unex
pired term of R. B. Bullock, late Gover
nor, by a speeiai election, was taken ap
and referred to Judiciary Committee.
Bills on first reading.
Mr- Hinton : To make penal the sale
of personal property subject to a mort
gage.
Mr- Smith : To amend section 31S1,
of tho Code, so as to give moving cred
itor in garnishment priority over all oth
ers.
Mr. Jordan i To define wbat shall be
• lawful fence—making eight rails of
ordinary size the only requisite;
Ncydmlei- S.—The Senate refuted to
reconsider Its action of'yesterday repeal- •
ing the District Court act.
A spicy debate occurred, in (be coarse i
of a brace of Radicals were ihiy- j
ed£ Thaprovkiog-tau-e ot the debate
wap tbc preamble ■<>•! resolutions, intro
duced by Biown, pronouncing a large
number of the witnesses called to testify
before the Congressional Ku klux Com
mittee, as unworthy of ciedit before any
court, and asserting that the people oi
the State were never more peaceable
and law abiding, and inviting that por
tion of the Ku klux Committee now
here, to summon the Judges of the Su
perior Court of the State, and pledging
-the aid of the "Genera! Assembly to en
able said committee to investigate any
outrages against tho la a of tbc State or
of tho United States.
The negro Senator, Campbell, appos
ed the adoption of tbe resolutions, and
Brock delivered himself at length against
thorn as untrue in regard to bis district.
Candler sprinkled tirera both with hot
shot. He denied tha existence of the
alledged lawlessness, aud charged Camp
bell as being aincttnUrt to a bench war
rant arrest, from which be was screened
by Lis membership in tbe Legislature.
He enlightened Brock with the evidence
of his knowledge of iris aiding in the rob
bery of tbe State of 81,COO as chairman
of the committee in charge of tho Stnte
road. The amonut was spent by Brock
for liquor and cigars. Campbell essay
ed to reply, but Brock remained as dumb
as a slioep. The preamble and resolu
tions were adopted.
Lester's resolution was adopted, ap
poiuting Iverson L. Harris, AV. B. Klein
ing and John B. Alexander to represent
the interest of the State ia the Albany
and Gulf Railroad.
House. —On motion of Hudson, tbe
Committee on Privileges and Elections
wero directed to inquire into the right
of L. O. Jones, a resident of Fulton coun
ty, to represent Macon county.
A multitude ol bills were introduced,
mainly of local interest and not of suffi
cient importance to be telegraphed.
The following Lills were on their third
reading :
A bill to create anew county of the
name of Stapleton, by a division of Jef
ferson county —rcfeircd to the Judicia
ry Committee. A bill abolishing the
City Court of Macon—passed. A bill

July—laid on the table.
A meSFago was received from the Ex
ecutive, transmitting a communication

rors in tho inventory of the property ol
tho State road. Tho communication was
referred to the Committee on the West
ern and Atlantic Railroad.
A message was received transmitting
tho report of the Secretary of State,
showing the registered issue of railroad
bonds since tho act requiring their reg
istration in his office after October, IS7O

wick Railroad 8600,000; for tho Cher
okee Road $360,000. It was referred

pressing importance. Tho following
bills were on tho third reading : A bill
to amend an act to construct a railroad
from Athens to Clarksville : passed. A
bill to incorporate the Chattahoochee
Manufacturing Company: passed.
Tho Judiciary Committee reported as
a substitute to the bill to appoint a com
mittee to investigate the official conduct
of Bullock, a bill providing for an elec
tion ol two committees vu'u rote by the
Senate and House, ono committee to in
vestigate the official conduct of Bullock
and other State officers, aud the other
committee to investigate tho lease of
the State Road aud its picviotn 7nau
agement. A number ot amendments
were proposed, among which Hinton
moved to insert the names of Linton
Stephens, James Johnson and W. B.
Fleming as the committee to investigate
the official conduct ot Bullock, and the
names of Warren, B. H. Hill and Geo.
W. Ad: :ms as the committee to investi
gate the management of tho State Road.
Pending a motion to recommit tho bill,
substitute and amendments to a special
committee from tbe Senate and House,
[ tbc hour of adjournment arrived, and
i the Senate adjourned.
The Squato adopted resolutions un
sealing Wm. Henry of the 44th District,
and declaring that as no legal election
was hold, Thomas J. Parks is not enti
tled to said scat, and requesting the
Governor to order an election to fill the
vacancy.
House.—The motion of Bush to ro
cousidcr tho resolution of yesterday to
pay members SIOO each was tabled.—-
Tho following bills were on third read
ing : A bill to provide for a special
election for Governor, with a substitute
by the Judiciary Committee, providing
that tbe election be held on second
Taesday in December, and that dupli
cate returns, addressed to tbc President
of the Senato and House, bo laid before
the Legislature for a declaration of elec
tion in case the person exercising tbc du
ties of Governor fails to transmit the
returns as directed by law, was made
the special order for to morrow. Bill to
make it a penal offence for a lalorer to
abandon tho service of an employer,
thereby breaking the contract, was ta
bled.
A bill to repeal the District Court Act
was mado tho special order for Saturday.
A bill to limit a lien by judgments of
Justices’ Courts to thirty days, to take
effect tbreo months after the passage of
tbe act, was passed.
A bill to amend the charier ol the
State University so as to allow an elec
tion of four additional trustees by tbe
Alumni was passed.
A bill to repeal tho law of IS7O in re
gard to elections was passed. The tes
timony in the cases of the contested elec
tions in Coweta and Glynn was referred
to the Committee ou Privileges and
Elections.
A resolution offered by Bacon for tbe
appointment of a committee of seven to
thoroughly investigate tbc ficancial
transactions of Bullock with H. Clews
and with all of the hanks, v was laid on
tbe table, as a bill to the same purpose
was before the Judiciary Committee.
A resolution offered by Pierce, direct
ing tho House Committee ou the West
ern anti Allantic Railioad to inqtiiro
aud report upon the legality of the
lease and validity of the bond was a
dopted-
lltwls introduced a resolution direct
ing the committee on Internal linprove
j meets to report a bill affixing tbe penal-
I ty of railroad companies which have re
ceived State aid, for neglecting to make
i tho reports required by law, and to fur
ther protect the State in issuing aid to
: railroads, which was adopted.
The House squarely denied the right
of a member to hold a seat beyond two
years under the Constitution, in the
case of George W. Humph, claimant of
the teat from Wayne county, where no
election was held at tbe last general
election. Humph having been a mem
ber of the previous Legislature, the
Committee on Privileges and Elections
recommended that the seat be declared
vacant and the adoption of a resolution
directing the Governor to order a spe
cial election. Thereportcf the com
mittee and the resolution providing for
the elcctiou was adopted.
Cummiog introduced a resolution, re
questing Coulcy to furnish information
in regard to the land scrip donation to
Georgia by Congress. Adopted. Ad
journed.
Page, the fugitive member from Lee,
who is under indictment for the murder
of Miller in Lee couuty, has been ar
rested at Chattanooga and held for re
quisition.
Tho lease of the State Road is loom
ing up for consideration in the Legisla
ture. President Brown complains of a
defective inventory, and asks a correc
tion in behalf of the lessees. Gross de
fects are apparent. The Constitution
will publish an article to-morrow morn
ing showing that a very large portion of
tho property of the road has never been
valued at all, and that much of it is val
ued at prices improperly low. None of
the depots and station houses have been
priced, and new engines worth $12,000
to SIS,OOO, are put down at SIO,OOO.
Only 510,760 worth of property along
the line ol the road has keen valued.
That Bullock played havoc with the
credit of tbe State, is further evidenced
in $175,000 of State endorsod bonds, re
ceived by tbe Cartersville and Van Wert
Railroad, ami a further issue of $300,000
to the same road, when the name was
changed to tho Cherokee Road. Tbe
first was lobe taken up, but both sets
are out yet.
SENATE.
NoveMi’.Eß 10.—The resolution of Mr.
Wellborn to recommit to a special com
mittee of two from the Senate and three
from the House, the bill to appoint a
eommitteo to investigate Bullock's offi
cial acts was adopted.
Nichols, of the Commute ou Educa
tion, recommended the printiug of 500
copies of tho report of the State School
Commissioner—adopted.
The bill to increase the punishment
prescribed by various sections of the Pe
nal Code, and changing the penalty
from misdemeanor to felony in most ca
ses was passed, with some amendments.
The special order was taken up, which
was the resolutions of the Committee on
Privileges and Elections, declaring tbe
i scat of William Henry of the 4-lth dis
trict vacant.
The resolution declaring Henry’s seat
vacant was adopted after a lengthy de
bate. Ayes 27, nays 9. Adjourned.
HOUSE.
The special order was taken up, which
was a bill to provide for the election of
a Governor to fill the unexpired term of
Bullock. It occupied the entire session
in its discussion. The chief bone of
contention was the third section, provid
ing for sending duplicate returns to the
President of Senate and Speaker of the
House in addition to those transmitted
through the Executive, ns a precaution
against the neglect or refusal of Conley
to transmit the returns. The speakers
opposing tho third section were Bryan,
McMillan, Simmons of Gwinnett, Scott,
W. D. Anderson, Gumming, Jackson
and Iloge. The speakers sustaining tho
bill entirely, were Johnson of Jefferson,
Bacon, Pou, Hudson, Fhillipsand Pierce.
Tbc amendment of Simmons of Gwin
nett, to strike out the third section pre
vailed, and tho bill was passed as a
mended.
Davis’ resolution that committees on
agriculture and manufactures be joint,

mittee on Privileges and EHctions to

tion «» M lttesdatwtf to McMillan’s bill
charging ths Joint Finance Committee
of the House and Stoats with the inves
tigation of tho trnetactiona of Bullock
with H. Clows & Cos, and all others,
touching bis operation with Stats funds;
also making it tho duty of the chairman
of said committee, upon reasonable
grounds of suspicion, to present tbe
former officials as guilty of offence
agsiost the laws forthwith, and sue ont
a warrant for their apprehension; and
in case of abseneo from the State to pto
cure requisitions for their delivery. It
was adopted aud aont to tho Benate.
A message from the Executive was
read returning with his veto the joint

tion of 1870, authorising tho Treaonrer to
pay all warrants drawn by the Governor
and countersigned by the Comptroller
and for suspending the operation of the
20th eeetion of the Appropriation Act of
1870, known as the India robber section.

his possession for several years. McMil
lan, Pou and Russell earnestly favored
a suspension of tbe rules, that immedi
ate action could be had on tbe resolution,
asserting boldly that a truthful investiga
tion was courted by the Jenkins admin
istration, notwithstanding the fact that

having long been the bane of tho South,
and declaring bis intention to avoid
speech making.
