State Kepudiation.
We occasionally hear zea'.ons, but,
pcrhapa, imprudent Democrats, give it
as their opinion, that it ia the impera
tive duty of the next Legislature, which
convenes on the first day of Novcmehr,
to pr miptly repudiate the pntire Itotid
cd debt of the St a to, incurred during the
administration of Governor Bcuect;
and also t" dec'are illegal, noli aid
void, the endorsement pivon by the
Mate to all railroad bonds, during the
Same period.
We won'd he gratified st such a eon-
Sninma'ion, and won'd g'vo the Hnggcs
lion encouragement, provided’it was fea
sible, and did not conflict with
law aid the decisions of the Su
preme Court—a trS' tinal that must lie
respected, although its decisions may
be conceived in iniquity and prorrtuiga
to<l in the interest of partizm rale.
There is one great obstacle to the
propos' and System of general repudiation,
however, which must present itself to
all unbiased and reflecting minds. It
is true the masses of the commonwealth
disracterze the Legislative liodics of
1868, 1869 and 1870, as illegal ns«> m
bhiges, packed bp the Washington ff ' B "
polism, and support'd in i>' wrr liy
Itadicul bayonets. Nerortlieless, the
Fnpremo Court has decided that said
General Assemhivs were constitutional
bodies. »od cons i|ii rilly llieir acts must
liai considered legal and of binding fircc.
The aaid Legislatures authorized the
isb ieing of State bonds—and also pled
ged Plate endorsement of the bonds of
certain railroads, to aid in tli-ir con
struction. Under this view of the ques
tion, a mere resolution, or even a sol
emn eiiucimctit ■ t repudiation, would
not relieve the State ol responsibility.
They were authorized by a Legislative
body, declared by the Supremo Court
to be constitutional. Vested rights
have ocerued tinder said enactments;
and there is no power known in a line-
Ited government, by which the State
can lie relieved of obligation, nud at the
same time innocent purchasers receive
no pecuniary damage.
Certain State bonds and endorsement
of Haiti nud bonds, can, however, lie le
gally repudiated, to wit : Slate bonds
that have been illegally issued, and on
doisetueuts procuied through fraud.
These aru the oily obligations that can
be -njafesufully interferred with; and it
will lie a waste of time and the poopie’s
money, to at'i rapt repudiation < f other
bonds or obligations.
In this rniinectb n, we would suggest,
tl at all laws granting State nid so Rail
roads. where vested rights, under said
enaetmciits, have not accrued, be repeal
ed. Such action will, in all pri liability.
Save to the Plate many millions of dol
lars. Railroad companies that have
c mplied with tho letter of the I iw, acted
in good faith, and nceived the States’
endorsement to their bonds, cannot bo
interfirrtd with.
Grant’ll l)e-|tol isni
rresideut Grant issued a proclama
tion on the 15lli inst, directed to ttie
“so calli and” instirgents'iti South Carolina,
requiring tliein to deliver up their arms
and dispel no within five days, or suffer
the penalty of disobedience. The proc
lumntinn is the most senseless twaddle
that ever < initiated f.om an executive;
but it is evident that it is ttie commence
ment nl a series of; otty out I ages against
the pcop’c of the South, A special to
the Ssvunuah Adve iieer sais tlmt the
pri cbmat ion was bused on information
turnislird ol details ol the 1 so-called Ku
Klnx organization in South Carolina,
is in effict a me’re warning for a com
plete programme, which includes a cor
don of military, which has be-cn arran
ged so as to make wholesale arrests at
the expiration of the time named of the
most prominent citizens. The adminis
tration makes no secre-t ■ f its iuteutions,
but boldly asserts Its d< termination to
enforce the Ku Klux law all over the
South. Ttie same authority says that
the programme for Georgia is tho same
»s that for Carolina. A delegation ol
Georgia carpet-baggers are in Wash
ington, tetliug terrible stories of Ku
Klnx outrages, aud uiging Federal in
tervention.
Stale Democratic Committee.
The members of the State Pemocratic Execu
tive Committee are requested to meet at the
office ol the Chairman, !n the city of Macon, on
Tuesday, the 24th day of October, at 10 o'clock
a. s. A full attendance is desired.
Curromi Anderson. Chairman, j
It is bsd policy to kick before the
spur is uj.plied-but candor compels us
to declare that we are suspicions of the
foregoing announcement, it smacks of
intended dictation to the Democratic!
members of the Legislature; and if such |
is the dt sign, the people wdl di maud ol
their representatives, that they spurn
dictation trout any and every quarter, |
with ttie loathing and contempt it de
serves. i
The till euro and Forest Fires.
The terrible calamity which laid Uhica-
great metropolis,of the West, in
ruins, and ptanged tbi: heart of the nation
in Borrow, loses none of its terrors by
the lapse of time. The d< tails of the
great, fire are harrowing in the extremcl
the blaekencf ruins, the smoking embers,
the starving, shelterless people, the
tilack and ghastly dead dragged from
smouldering ruins, suffi ring women and
childien, make up a tale of- anguish that
would melt a heart of stone to pity. In
addition to all this, the fearful state of
society, required the strong aim of the
military to hold it in cheek. During the
prevalence es the fire and < xcitoment
“tending it, thieves, pillagers and inecn
diaries plied their heartless avocation
with great evidity, and to such an ex
tent that more’ than fifty of them were
shot down in the aJrcets, or swung to
the lamp posts at fiv* minutes notice.
The number who perished in the flames,
or were killed by fulling walls, is vari
i nsly estimated at from three to five
hundred persous. Many will never be
distinguished from the hcapß of "Sties
and debris into which they fell. In ad
dition to thoae who perished in the ruins,
we have accounts of deaths in large
numbeis from exposure and over-excite -
ment. The weak and the delicate, the
invalids, urn] the women and children
w l,u h.night safety on the bleak
prairie, with no shelt- r save heaven's
canopy, suffered excrnciatiegly, and it
is not, therefore, surprising thut many
should have died.
The total loss of properly by this
great fire, is ascertained to lie in the
neighborhood of three hundred millions
of dollars; and perhaps one hundred mil
lions ol the the loss is covered by insur
ance. In response to the appeals of the
sufferers, the peoples of the world have
contributed liberally; the monied value
ol the same footing op opwurds of lour
millions of dollars.
In addition to lbc|sufferings orChica
go, the cry of distress comes from the
Stati sos Michigan, Minne sota, Wiscon
sin, lowa, Indiana, and elsewhere. Im
mense fin s have been raging in the for
ests of those States for three weeks, and
llio loss cf property and life lias no
parallel since tt.e settlement of the coun
try. In Wiscoi s n two t." u and square
miles have been laid in waste by the
fire; in Michigan a dozen towns and vil
lages have been obliterated; and gener
al ruin stares the people of the North
west in the face. The long and pro
tracted 1 drought enabled the fire to
spread with terrible velocity. The loss
of life is distressing to contemplate, and

Ttie Fate of ( liicnKo Incendiaries.
A correspondent ot one of the New
York pnpeis who was in Chicago the
day after the fire, relates the following
story concerning the late of two incen
diaries whose punishment came under
bis own observation. He says :
Being caught in the act of setting
fire te some building, tie was conducted
to the tree. The cr< wd thinks ordinary
hanging too lenient a death, so it is de
termined to suspend the poor wreteli by
the feet. He i«, therefore, pinioned
aronnd the arms, the rope being mean
while fastened to his feet. As this is
done the unhappy wretch begs that lie
may he allowed to die by strangulation
This ts ii"t ul'owed. Ttie other nid
having been passed over tl e bough ot
the tree, lie is tripped off Ids teet and
I auled up feet fiist. When Ids head is
alsuit three feet from the ground the
end of the rope is fastened i omit) the
trunk of the tree. Some fluid, not con
tent with ties, raises a huge sti ne, and
dashes it with all his might at the head
of tho hanging man. it was a good
aim, for the nose is seen to be broken.
Others participate in tho sp it and soon
the head is not d : Btingnishable, hut is
one mass of gore and pulp. This is
such bravo sport that the dull thud
sound is beard as each stone is flung,
while the narrator passed down the
street. It. Halstead street a jontli
about sixteen hud been caught kindling
a fire, with the intent of spreading the
flames through the city. When last
seen by Mr. Boatman, lie had one arm
completely wrenched out of the socket,
and was then being conducted to tho
place of execution. \
Diamonds and other articles of light
weight, small six* 1 , and great value, are
constantly transmitted between Europe
and ttie United States, in letters and
: newspapers, in order to avoid duty on
the same. This practice l.as become so
general tl at Secretary Boutwell, in
i conjunction with the Postmaster Gen
lera), is about instituting measures to
| remedy the evil. To reach this end, it
is proposed that wherever any foreign
| mails are received, sued letters as con*
; tain more than written matter shall be
| retained, and the party addressed in*
! formed that a letter awaits personal ex
amination at the Post Office. It tho let
ter is to be forwarded to an interior
city, the postmaster of that city is to be
instructed not to deliver the same until
he is satisfied that the contents are not
subject to the tariff. By the strict ob
servance of this plan, the present sys
tem of evading the revenue law will be
bioken up.
A dispatch from New York says th; t
a lady b* nght an entire store of ladi- ■
clothing and shipped it to Chicago. It
is not stated whether it was shipped as
a donation to tbc sufferers or for specu

Wlihl Grant I'i npnses to Do.
The Washington correspondent of the
Savannah Hewn has the following:.
The National Republican Central Com
mittee, assisted by advicr troni Senators
and Representative from the South
are managing the schemes of the ad
ministration for securing complete con
trol of the South at ttie next Presidential
election. The committee boast that they
have secured, North and South Carolina,
beyotufperad vent are, and have fair
prospects in Virginia.
A8 TO GEORGIA,
they express great confidence in a
scheme which they have .just started in
that Slate. They claim that it will re
sult in a complete ov* rthrow of the Ku-
Klnx Ktati and the Democratic party of
tho Slate. It is said that Akermun’s
visit to Georgia was for Iho per pose of
ptittii g ibis scheme in operatioi, and to
consult with the best men in the party as
to the proper men to bo selected to fill
vacancies at points win re it is detei min
ed to remove present incumbents.
BYE-BYE TO THE B*.
A part of this scheme contemplates
the throwing oyerloard of all dead-drags,
sneh as Bullock, Blodgett, Krzyzanow
ski, Robb and others, who, it is claimed,
1 ave brou"lit disgrace upon the party,
fn fact, it is claimed that a revolution
will in.* inaugurated among tho Federal
fficials in tlic State which will undoubt
edly sweep all the thieves and bribe
takers out of official existence, and their
places will he filled by honest officials, it
any can be found.
The Great Ftre in Lomliui
This great fire, wlione ruins covered
436 acres, extended from the Tower to the
Ten.pie Church, and from the northeast
gate to Ho’born bridge. It destnyed
in the space of four and *ys 89 churches, the
city gates, the Royal Exchange, the Cus
tomhouse, Guildhall, Tion College, and
many other public buildings, besides 13,
200 bouses, laying in waste 400 streets.
Over 200,000 people can ped out alter
the tire in Islington and Higbgate.
Concerning this fire, Sir Clnistophei
Wren built a monument with this in
scription thereon:
“This pil'ar was set np in perpetual
rememberance of that most dreudful
burning of this Protestant city, bogun
and cartied by ye treachery and malace
of ye Popish faction, in ye beginning of
September, in ye year of our Loid 1606,
in order to ye carrying on their horrid
plot for extirpating je Protestant reli
gion and old English liberty, and yc in
troducing Popery and slavery."
Chicago Affairs. —The World* of Fri
day, says:
At Chicago eighty dead bodies lie in
the Morgue, and it is certain that this : s
but a small number of tl ose who have
perished. As many as twenty Lod : es
were taken from the basements of two
buildings on the north side. At an in
quest In Id on 64 of the bodies only two
were recognized. The fire bad not bro
ken out again on Tuesday night, and the
cty was quiet. Tue Oomnvttee of Re
lief were enabled to supply 40,000 des
titute pet sons with food. The number
to be provided for during the coming
winter is estimated at 70,000. Brave
efforts are being made by the Chicigo
ans to organize relief, to commence bus
iness and to restore confidence. Sub
script io is continue to pour in from eve
ry city in the United States, and from
London, Birmingham, Frankfort, Vienna,
and, indeed, from all parts of tho world,
funds are fort he- ming. In American
cities yesterday $736,000 was collected,
making a total of $2,500,000 subscribed
in three days. At a meeting of Ameri
cans in Loudon yesterday, under the
presidency of Minister Scbenck, $50,000
was subscribed in a few minutes, and
t! e Lord Mayor has opened a subscrip
tion list for Hie general public.
Handsome Acts —On Friday last the I
City Council of MiPedgevilli-, by ordi
nance of reemd, tendered to the Slate ol 'j
Georgia a farm of five hundred acres fur
the Agricultural and Military Callage, to j
be located anywhere the State mayj
olioose on the Guy Common. This land
is worth Mow SSO per acre—in ail say
$25 000. And on the same day, the
Trustees of the M Wedgeville Presbyteri
an Clinrcli High School made a Deed of
Gift to Hie Slate of Georgia, for the same
trust ol all the old Oglethorpe College
buildings, sixteen in number, and fifty
: acres, part of tl eir land lying on the
west side of the railroad, in sight of the
I State House, and about two miles from j
| the Governor's House, or Mllledgevllle
| depot. The deeds is to be heid as an
escrow by General Colquitt, President
of the Georgia State Agricultural Socie
ty, deliverable to the Governor for the
use ol the State as soon as the State, by 1
law, shall establish cither, all or any de
partment of the Agricultural and Mtlita
ry Colli ge on the grounds. The church
gftis a noble bounty, worth fully as
■ much as all the laud given to Georgia
by Congress.— Mrlkdgeville Union.
Burning up the Ground.— ln Miunes
sota tho prairie fire has burned th rough
the earth in some places to the depth of
five feet. Fort Abercomby narrowly
escaped destruction. The fire was dis
covered making its way toward the fort
with wonderful rapidity, and the entire !
garrison was ordered out, and armed
with blankets, the men fought it off
and saved the buildings, bay and wood
Chicago Forty Years Ago.— Less than |
forty years ago Major Long, who con :
ducted an expedition to explore the:
source of the St. Peter's river, wrote of j
Chicago in his official report: “The vil j
lage presents no cheering prospects. |
It consists of but few huts, inhabited by
a ntiseruble set of men scarcely equal i
to the Indians from whom they are de- j
sceuded. As ajplaceof trade It offers no
inducements to the settler.”

Prayer of a l)i»iracte«l People-
Mi. Oroesheck, in his great speech at
Steubenville, uttered the following invo
cation lor the national blessings, which
may well serve ns a form of prayer for
the people of the United States:
“I plead for the preservation of this
Union as a limited Government. I plead
for the Stale as our home government,
i I ple»d for the accustomed freedom ol
j our elections, and that they may not lie
j spoiled by military snperr .ion. 1 plead

great writ which alone secures our daily
i personal liberty. Tire war is ended, and
iwe have entered the aoventh your ol
i peace. I plead for the spirit of peace
inrt confidence and good will in all our
public conduct. Tire hand ouUtretclrcd

maker than tire shut band uplifted to

Just one week before the Inst fire hr ke

which was destroyed last Sued >y or
