TIII2 IMPEACHMENT UP ItENFROR.
The following managers for the im
peachment of Treasurer Renfroe were
elected by ballot: Cox of Troup, Mil
ner of Bartow, Nisbet of Bibb, Fort of
Sumter, Hutchins of Gwinett, Crawford
of Muscogee, and Turner of Coweta.
IN A BAD WAT.
Things seem to havo been going on
very badly in Atlanta among the State
officials. W. L. Goldsmith, the Comp
troller-General, has been impeached and
convicted —articles of impeachment
have been preferred against J. W. Ren
froe, the State Treasurer. And Janes,
of the Agricultural Bureau, and also
Nelms, Principal Keeper of the Peni
tentiary are now on the ragged edge.
We hope all guilty persons connected
with the government will be exposed
and brought to merited punishment.
Hon. J. W.H. Underwood Inter*
viewed on the Political
. Situation.
The editor of the Summerville Ga
zette recently interviewed Judge Un
derwood, and reports as follows:
“What do you think of the prospect
of the Democratic party ?”
“The outlook is pretty gloomy, but if
wise counsels prevail we will win the
Presidential election in 1830.”
“What about the election in Maine 7”
“No Democrat could reasonably ex
pect that we would carry the election
in Maine. But the indications there
show thnt with a practical plan of ilnan
cial relief we would have a prospect of
carrying even that Republican State.’’
What are the objections to the Green'
backers ?”
“The objection to the platform of the
Greenbackers is this: they propose to
pay the interest-bearing bonds by
new issue of greenbacks ba'ed upon
nothing, which would fill the country
with an irredeemable paper currency,
and thereby destroy its commerce and
paralyze its industry. Whereas the
true idea is to inflate the currency from
89 to 830 par capita, based upon gold
and silver in the treasury. The details
of this plan are too long to publish, but
they are of easy solution. I t only re
quires true statesmanship and political
pluck.”
“What reasons do you assign for the
Rspublican gains in California ?”
“We lost the election in California
upon ridiculous State issues, started by
Kearney and his coadjutors for purely
selfish purposes. In New York there is
a feud in the party which is as dis
graceful to principle as it is injurious to
liberty. The Tammany faction, Lead
ed by Kelly, propose to rule or ruin
and prefer defeat to the triumph of their
rivals. The trouble in the Democratic
organization in the United States and
many of the States is this: they have
attempted to organize on men instead
of the principles and guarantees of civil
liberty.”
“Can parties maintain their ascsn
dency whore they do not stand on prin
ciples?"
“No parly can long maintain the as
cendency that does not stand on princi
pie when parties are formed upon men
—men die, principles live forever.”
“What will be the result of the elec
tion of another Republican candidate
for President?”
“Behind the election of another Re
publican candidate for President stands
the empire, if not the name, in its pow
ers and oppressions. Liberty is now on
trial; the people are the jury, and if the
Democracy is now defeated true liberty
will be a thing of the past. It is of no
consequence who the agent may be to
execute a principle. Of course every
one who exercises the functions of a high
office ought to be a person of integrity
and reasonably good character.”
“What do you think of the election
of Gov. Robinson, of New York ?”
Gov. Robinson is a good man, and
ought to receive the undivided support
of the party in that State, and Horatio
Seymour, S. S. Cox, and other great
Democratic lights in that Stute, owe to
their past history, their present position,
and their duty to the country, the duty
of seeing that this is done. They should
wear slick every stump in the State or
secure this grand result. Thurman and
Ewing in Ohio are doing their whole
duty, and if their wind grows short,
Hendricks and Yoorhees ought to fly to
their relief.”
“What will be the result of the per
fect harmony and organization of the
Democratic party in Georgia and the
effect of disorganizations as they existed
in 1878 ?"
“Georgia of course will cast her vote
for the Democratic nominee for Presi
dent, but Bhe does not now occupy a po
sition in her political organization to
command the influence and power to
which Bhe is justly entitled. Being the
leading Southern State, perfect harmo
ny and organization here will inspire
confidence' iu the Democracy of the
North, and insure the electoral votes for
our candidate for President in the close
Northern States. Disorganization, as
it existed in 187S, will beget distrust,
and defeat may follow; therefore lot
every true Democrat from principle,
without reference to past differences,
feel it to bo his duty to assist in perfect
ing an organization thnt will insure
harmony. If this is done, the patriot
may feel hope for the future of our
great republic.”
The life and character of our distin
guished friend have been shaped amid
the shadows of North Georgia, and in
the budding of his manhood the pa
geantry, pomp, and power, of his young
and massive mind, enabled him to ride
upon the crest of the wave of his pro
fession and enjoy a large and lucrative
practice. He is of fine physique, com
manding appearance, fluent in conver
sation, and never reticent upon the vir
tues of the Democratic party, which
he believes to be the only safeguard of
this grand republic of ours from the
thraldom of imperialism in manner if
not in name. Ho is quite conversant
with the affairs of the government, but
his quiet, unaggressive manner, and his
free and pungent critizism of the follies
and foibles of things both in private
and public life, have perhaps been det
rimental to his enjoyment of political
preferment, but he is to-day, in many
respects, without a peer.
The Impeachment Trial Closed
—Goldsmith Convicted.
We give below full particulars of the
final proceedings in this interesting
trial:
The high court of impeaohment con
vened, the lion. Hiram Warner, chief
justioe, presiding, and the parties before
the bar of the court.
Mr. Preston offered to amend the rules
of the court by repealing the 28th rule,
which requires that at the termination
of the trial the entire journal of the
court from its commencement shall be
read to the court. This proposition
was received with favor, but being re
garded as more appropriate to a subse
quent period, was, for the present, laid
on the table.
Mr. McDaniel offered the following
to-wit:
“Ordered, That rule 22 of the rules
of procedure be amended by striking
out all between the word “sentence” in
the fourth line and the word “shall” in
the sixth line, and by inserting in lieu
thereof, the following : “as determined
by-vote of the Senate for this purpose.”
This amendment to rule 22 was
adopted by a vote of ayes 30, nays 10.
The effect of this amendment was to
leave the penalty, in case of conviction,
to be determined by the Senate—the
rule as it stood fixing the penalty at the
extreme limit authorized by the consti
tution, viz: removal from office and
disqualification to hold any office of
honor, profit or trust in this State with
out limit as to time. Now it is compe
tent for the Senate to modify this ex
treme penalty.
The Senate seeming to be content with
the status of the rules,
The Chief Justice submitted the
question: “Senators: Are you
ready to vote on the impeachment
pending ?" A majority responding af
firmatively, the solemn voting by whioh
the issues were to be determined, pro or
con, the respondent was begun.
The Secretary was directed to call the
roll of the Senate, alphabetically, paus
ing after the call of each name, when
the Chief Justice submitted to the Sen
ator the following question to wit: “Sen
ators: What say you, is the defendant
guilty or not guilty of the charges con
tained in the — article of impeach
ment?” (the article being read in each in
stance prior to the voting).

Stephens sick at his home.
Article 2 charges the illegal issuing

costs to such claimants. The vote stood,

having previously adopted the Bame
report.
A number cf House bills wore read
the second time.
until 10 o’clock a. m. to-morrow, and the
Senate until 9 o’clock a. m.
The question of impeachment of
Renfroe, State Treasurer, being under
consideration
The substitute of Mr. Mynatt was as
follows:
Whereas, the treasurer tenders his
resignation, which under the circum
stances is a concession on his part of a
violation of law and a consequent
yielding up of the trust reposed in him.
Therefore
Resolved 1. That without qualifica
tion we condemn his disregard of law
in the conduct and management of the
office confided to him.
2. That the Governor be requested to
accept the resignation and proceed at
once as the law directs for tho breaches
by the treasurer of his duties, and upon
these conditions articles of impeach
ment be withheld.
Mr. Cox, of Troup,, called the yeas
and nays. They were ordered and were
as follows: Yeas, 43 ; nays, 109. So
the substitute was lost.
The question was then upon the reso-
tions of the committee, which was as
follows:
Resolved, That J. W. Renfroe, treas
urer of the State of Georgia, be im
peached of high crimes and misdemean
ors in office.
Resolved, That the accompanying
testimony, exhibits and rescript, togeth
er with this report, be referred to the
committee on the judiciary, with instruc
tion to prepare and report, without un
necessary delay, suitable articles of im
peachment of said J. W. Renfroe, treas
urer.
Resolved, That a committee of seven
of this House be appointed and instruct
ed to proceed forthwith to the bar of the
Senate and there impeach J. W. Renfroe,
treasurer, in the name of the House of
representatives and of all the people of
Georgia, of high crimes and misdemean
ors in office, and to inform that body
that formal articles of impeachment will
in due time be presented, and to request
the Senate to take such order in the
premises as they may deem appropriate.
On the first of the resolutions the yeas
and nays were called and were as fol
lows : yeas 126, nays 13.
The second and third resolutions were
unanimously adopted.
Speaker Bacon inquired if there was
any objection to tho announcement at
this time of the committe to proceed to
the bar of the Senate and there impeach
J. W. Renfro of high crimes and misde
meanors. There was no objections and,
The Speaker announced the commit
tee as follows; A. L. Miller, of Houston,
George R. Sihley, of Richmond Reese
Crawford, of Muscogee, Robert A. Nisbet,
of Bibb, A. J. King, of Floyed, J. F.
Aw try, of Troupe.
The Speaker stated that he had ap
pointed members of the special investiga
ting committee.
The committee on public property
reported that they did not deem it ex
pedient to build a new capitol just now.
Mr. Phillips moved that the House
take up a resolution looking to an inves
tigation of the agricultural bureau,
which had been reported by the finance
committee. Agreed to. The resolution
was then referred to the special com
mittee now investigating the bureau.
Whereas, By a resolution of the
Honso of Representatives, adopted up
on the recommendation of the commit
tee on finance, the 15lh of November,
1878, the Commissioner of Agriculture
was required to furnish this House with
a full, complete and itemized statement
of all money oy other things of value
received and paid out by him since the
organization of the department of agri
culture, on account of said department,
to the present time;
And whereas, said Commissioner of
Agriculture, in response to said resolu
tion, did submit such itemized account
from September 1,1874, to September
30,1878, which does not furnish a full,
complete and itemized statement of
receipts and expenses, but is calculated
to deceive and mislead as to the real
facts, in the following named particu
lars, to-wit: First, said report does not
contain the amount received by said
Commissioner for his salary. Second,
it does not contain the amount paid to
the clerk of said Commissioner, Third,
it does not contain the full amount ex
pended in printing for said department.
And further, that said report is incom
plete and imperfect, in that it presents
an item under the head of “expenses”
of 8721.85 without stating for what pur
pose such expenditure was made.
And whereas, the Commissioner of
Agriculture, instead of expending the
large appropriations made to this de
partment in the exchange and distribu
tion of seed or in developing the agri
cultural interests of this State, as con
templated in the act establishing this
department, he has disbursed the paltry
amount of 817 for the distribution of
seed, and the insignificant sum of 83.85
for stocking our rivers with fish, while
at the same time expending large
amounts, to-wit: 823,274.90 in salaries
of employes, 89,097 in printing, 862.20
in State fair expenses and 8954.15 in
traveling expenses, and this, too, with
out sufficsent authority of law, thus
diverting certain large portions of the
appropriations made to this department
to illegitimate purposes, and indulging
prodigality in the amounts paid for ex
penses properly connected with thiB
department, but in no way advancing
the agricultural interest of tho State;
be it, therefore,
Resolved, That the special committee
on the department of agriculture he
instructed to inquire into the facts
herein stated, and to recommend what
action is necessary to indemnify the
State for such alleged irregularities in
offleo on *he part of the present Com
missioner of Agriculture; and further,
to report, by bill or otherwise, such leg
islation as will in the future protect the
public interest, induce a rigid economy
in tho necessary expenses of this depart
ment, and effectually secure to this in
terest that substantial aid whtch its
importance demands.
