ESTABLISHED IN 1843.
M. DWINELL, Proprtoler.
B. F. SAWYER, Editor.
Tuesday Morning,- April 25,1876
We learn that the old Greeley man
sion at Chappaqua wns burned re
cently.
Kate field says the Duchess of Edin
burg haB gone home to her papa, and
won’t come back, either.
“V. R. B. E. T. I.” are the new eni-
tials of the Queen— 11 Victoria Regina
Britannia? et Tndorum Imperatrix. - ’
Governor Coke, of Texas, in his an
nual message to the Legislature, favors a
pursuit of the Mexican cattle thieves into
their own jungles across the Rio Grande,
and says there is no hope of any better
condition of affairs as long as the Rio
Grande remains the limit to which the
thieves can be pursued.
THE REPUBLICAN MEEI'INU.
We publish by request the proceed
ings of the Republican meeting held in
this city last Saturday. The cutting
irony with whioh it endorses Grant’s
honest administration and turns bis own
edict—“ Let no guilty man escape”—
against him and his Cabinet, is refresh
ing in this day of Republican toady
ism.
The resolutions in regard to a Consti
tutional Convention are good and 2
long ways in advance of the Democra
cy. Our Democratic friends must wake
up, or else the Republicans will steal a
very effective piece of tbeir thunder.
The people want a Convention and
a new Constitution, and if the Demo
cratic leaders will not give it to them,
they will look elsewhere for it. The
Legislature has twice betrayed the peo
ple on this question, and it cannot af
ford to do it again.
>< SLEEPY HOLLOW.”
This old gentleman-wakes up occasion
ally, and like a peevish baby or disap
pointed old maid, temper-soured by hope
; deferred, he always wakes up wrong end
foremost, with a spiteful kick and a puerile
whine. His last whine is in the Chroni-
icle and Sentinel of Sunday, wherein he
patriotically bewails in the most approved
manner of Pecksn ; ff, the selfish wiles of
Democratic office seekers and discants
upon the unselfish patriotism of the In
dependent hankerer after the loaves and
fishes.
It it a characteristic whine and needed
not the psuedonyme of “ Sleepy Hollow’
to locate its author. It is too thin, too,
to deceive any one as to its object, and
"Sleepy Hollow,” had he been thoroughly
honest, would have said in much fewer
words that he was the only man in the
Seventh District fitted either for Govern
or or for Congress, and the object of his
feeble effort was to pave an Independent
way to one or the other of those offices;
he is not particular which.
Well, we expect a host of patriotic Iu*
pendents to deluge the next canvass, and
we had as soon tackle the chip on the old
gentleman’s shoulders as any other we
know of, for we know of none whose
record, as a politician or a patriot is more
vulnerable.
THE GRANGERS AND THE BUREAU.
It is no pleasure to have to controvert
the opinions of others or to expose the
abuses of a favorite public Bystem. We
are not expected to make friends by doing
so and are always liable to incur the dis
pleasure of some; for we care not how
outrageous a system may be, it always
has its friends and advocates.
Our strictures on the abuses of the Ag
ricultural Bureau were not mado simply
for •- the fun of the thing,” but in an
earnest cflbrt to correct, or at least expose,
the imposition under which our farming
friends were unjustly laboring, ha we
anticipated, ourefforts were not kindly re
ceived by all. There are some who are
disposed to criticise us rather severely for
our temerity iu attacking such a powerful
and popularinstitulion. We are sorry to of
fend, even the least. But while there are
many to condemn us, we find a few to ap
prove, and that few are found in the
ranks of the intelligent farmers of the
country. We are in daily receipt of en
couraging letters from these, and they go
a long ways toward lightening the weight
of the contra-displeasure. Of these we
give the following from Cedartown,notso
much because of its words of approval
as to set the Grangers right in a matter
wherein our correspondent thinks we have
done them a wrong. After enclosing a
subscription to The Courier he says :
11 The people of this section are with
you in your warfare against our "jackass”
Legislature and “ de Buro’,” the Express
to the ceuntrary notwithstanding. Al
lowances, however, must be made for the
Express. We who live in the county,
know the why’s and wherefore’s.
You are mistaken, however, in think
ing that the Agricultural Bureau is the
pet idea of the Grangers, at least in so-
far as the rank and file are concerned.
As an evidence of this, I would state,
that at*'a meeting of Grangers not long
since, the question was propounded : what
benefit has the Agricultural Bureau
been to the farmers ? The answer came,
none at all.” I am satisfied that the
Grangers in this section would vote en
masse for the abolition of the Bureau
the Agricultural not excepted. The
truth is we are all heartily disgusted with
“ de Buro’s,” and have been ever since
“ de Freedman's 4 Buro” had such a run.
Yours truly, R.
North and South Railroad Meet
ing.
The Griffin News, in speaking of the
refusal of Governor Smith to be a can
didate for Governor, says, “The clem
ency of the Executive passeth our un
derstanding. He has just pardoned a
man for shooting at another. If it had
been a woman needing pardon, what
then?” To this the Atlanta Times re
plies:
11 We kpow the"cases alluded to—the
JSberhait.ca3e : and.the.case of Tatum.
The former we do not now propose to
discuss, but Executive clemency never
was exercised more properly than in
the case of R. P. Tatum, of this city,
He is a one-logged Confederate soldier,
shot to pieces, almost, in the late war,
and in a sudden quarrel with a gentle
man of this city, fired upon him. There
was no instance of malice in the case.
Tatum having been assaulted on sudden
provocation while he was seated in his
chair, at his own door, by a powerful
athletic man, resented the personal in
jury and afirent, and while the blood
drawn from him was fresh on his face,
fired upon his assailant, fortunately
without effect. Thousands of the best
citizens in Fulton county signed the
petition for hiB pardon,and the prosecu
tor hod the magnanimity to join in the
petition. If Governor Smith has done
wrong in other cases of like character,
which we do not charge, this case can
not be laid as a sin at his door. He was
right in pardoning Tatum. This is the
verdict of the community in which the
parties live.”
And a righteous verdict it is, and
none but a man whose daddy
has been disappointed in some
little judicial longing would have the
cruelty to object to it
Lagrange, Ga., April 19,1870.
A number of stockholders met in
the court-houBe in LaGrange at 3 o’clock
P. M. Col. Jas. M. Mobley was elected
chairman, and Wm. Redd, jr., of Col
umbus, secretary.
On motion of Mayor Yancy, of La-
Grange, the nameB of stockholders were
called, and it was ascertained that 2456
shares, a majority of the stock, were
represented.
Remarks were made by Messrs.
Nuckoll’s of Columbus Mobley of Har
ris, Yancey of LaGrange, Mayor Cleg-
horn of Columbus, Fannin of- Troup,
and Shackelford of Heard.
On motion of Mr. Nuckolls, the fol
lowing resolution was unanimously
adopted:
Resolved, That an Executive Com
mittee of six, consisting of W. H. Ban-
non, T. J. Nuckolls, and S. B. Cleg-
horn, of Columbus, Jas. M. Mobley,
W. I. Hudson, of Harris, B. C. Ferrell,
\V. C. Jarboe, of LaGrange, M. Shackel
ford, of Franklin, and I). S. Printup,
of Rome, be appointed by this meeting
to call upon upon the former stock
holders of the North and South Rail
road to subscribe ten per cent, of their
hitherto paid up stock for purpose of
extending said road.
Resolved, That the Executive Com
mittee be directed to call together those
who subscribe the additional ten per
cent, in Columbus within thirty days
for forming a company to make* a bid
for the road.
Resolved, That should any member
of the Executive Committee resign, his
place shall be supplied by said Commit
tee.
On motion the meeting adjourned.

Wm. Redd, Jr., Secretary.
Mr. and Mrs. Young.
Cleveland Pialndealer]
The registering on the hotel bcok
at the Arlington of plain Mr. and
Mrs. Young would never excite very
much comment, but when other
guests found out that Mr. Young was a
sonof the prophet, and that Mrs.Young
was wife No. 3, why ! that put a new
face upon the matter, and people felt
much more interest in the lady than in
the gentleman. About thirty, slender,
graceful and lady-like, faultlessly
dressed and wearing a charming set of
features, it was^difficult to imagine her
sharing her husband with anybody else.
She is a Philadelphian, respectably
connected and well educated.
Journeying across the Plains seven
years ago she met her “John,” third
son of Brigham. it was an
unmistakable case of affinity, botli
were desperately in love, but John had
already two Mormon help-meets. In
lier creed they were no wives at all,
and she wanted John; so, reaching Utah,
the conditions were made. It John
would put away the incompatibles, she
would be Mrs. Yong. John made
provision for the females aforesaid; Miss
• espoused the Mormon faith and
John at the same time, but coming
East again, she was re-married in or
thodox fashion in a Gentilo church.
John is perfectly devoted to her, and
she is extremely happy.
Touching the Columbus clerical scan
dal the Sunday Enquirer says:
Mr. K. claims he can entirely free
himself from the charge, and all ho asks
is a suspension of judgment until the case
can be fully and fairly investigated. The
theory of {he defenso is to prove an alibi
by unimpeachable witnesses; the great
intimacy of other parties with the one
with whom it is alleged ho was
guilty, and that the prosecution is the re
suit of a conspiracy.
On the other side are direct evidence,
the confession of the girl and many cor
roborating circumstances are agaiust
him.
The counsel for the defonse are Judge
James Johnson, Thornton & Grimes and
Williams & Thornton; for the prosecution
McNeill & Crawford.
It would be a matter of rejoicing if
Mr. K. could provo his innocence, for it
would also exonorate the alleged victim
Mrs. K. visited her husband at the
jail last afternoon.
The Hartford rost wants everything
cleared up. “Mr. Blain is seeking
election to the office of President and
he ought to be able to show a clean pair
of hands. We will only add that our
confidence in his integrity is bo great
that we believe he will be able to put his
accusers to shame, and we earnestly
hope that he may do so; but this matter
of the Arkansas railroad bonds has been
floating in the air for a good while, and
it is high time the cloud was dispelled
once for all.”

General Marcy, in responding to in
quires of the Military Affairs Commit
tee made the following statement os to
appropriations for the Indians in 1848
when the War Department managed
Indian affairs, and in 1875 under the
existing management:
F.r contingent expenses and for fill
ing treaty stipulations $8,851,631 06
Pot of officers end clerki In oomtnia-
er’g office 75,530 00
Pay of sapsrlntenlenta, inspector!,
.gent* and their clerks 136,100 00
Total appropriations in 1876-76 (7,663,301 06
The appropriations for the same pur
poses in 1848 were:
For contingent expenses, etc $343,100
Officers,' t etc„in commissioner’soOlce 18.700 00
Superintendents, agents, etc. ..... .. 13,673 00
Total appropriations In 1348 $874,478 00
Difference $5,188,733 06
There appears to be some economy in
theWar DepartmeDtmangement accord
ing to General Marcy’s statement, and
when it is considered that, according
to the testimony of Hon. William
Welsh, who has given the keenest at
tention to Indian affairs, the Indians
received only 25 per cent of 87,063.210
96, it is apparent that the ring pocket
ed at least 85,000,000 of the public
money. In 1848 there wete 418,000
Indians under the War Department,
and in 1874 the records snow only
379,000 whioh suggests, very forcibly,
that the so-called “humane” Interior
Department management has been a
fatal management for the Indians. The
transfer of the Indian bureau, in view
of these facts, is certainly a measure of
the strictest economy, and .undoubted
ly in the interest of humanity.
