This These restrictions, however, were which were to be given out in conipar thousand dollars a mile, when a eer- the adventurous corporation all at was thrown. Thus, the roads were to be constructed by the sale of our pay tli horde of swindlers might he enabled, without the outlay of a dollar by them selves, to lord it over us as railroad kings, and developers of our count! y anti its wonderful resources. You will also remember that the Legislature which sat in January, 18- 72, raised a committee to examine in to and report upon the legality of the bonds issued by Bullock and the ben- tit if any, to the State from their issue and sale, how far the constitution aud the law authorizing them bad been respected and complied with and for what aniouut the State was bound to provide. The committee in Atlan ta, examined into everytning they could find there, throwing light on the matter, and to give the holders all op- I>ortunity of presenting their claims, and establishing the justice of them, went to New York and advertised ex tensively for all persons holding bonds of the State, or endorsed by Bullock, to bring them forward, and have them examined, that justice might be done, and wrong prevented. The commit tee spent several weeks-iu New York, closely engaged, and had many of those pretended obligations of the State presented to them. These they examined carefully, and condemned hilly four-fourths of those issued or cu- dorsed by Bullock, because either the constitution had been violated in their issue, or the law authorizing their is sue on certain conditions had not been complcd with. These the legis lature disowned, on the recommenda tion of the committee, in August of last year. Of course, this produced a howl from the holders of the bogus bonds, and others in Georgia aud elsewhere whom they could enlist in their cause by heavy fees, or n division of the spoils of their bonds could be made genuine by au act of the Legislature. The cry was raised that* the State would be ruined, that her credit was gone, and she would never again he able to sell a bond or borrow a dollar at home and abroad. The {Legislature of January, 1872 knowing that the distress of the coun try, not yet recovered from the rava ges of the war, forbade the idea of in creased taxation, authorised tire issue of seven toudi to the AWQttUt of seven kundred iuCl ,aao ^ dollars, to redeem the bonds of the State 7^“ became due in that year. Of these bonds a few were taken in exchange for old bonds; the rest were sent to New York, and out of seven hundred thousand not more than two hundred and fifty thousand were disposed of, and they at niuety cents on the dollar. This being reported to the Legislature at its last session, and further that a large amount of State bonds would be come due in this year, and it being painfully apparent that the people were yet too hardly pressed to pay the taxes necessaiy to meet this great exigency (a million dollars more beiug required than the usual rate of taxation would produce.) the prospect became gloomy m the extreme. What was to be done? was the only question; what could be done no one could say. Just then the bont^oldcrs, wide awake and watching every event, came forward with the proposition that if the legislature would legalize certain bonds condemned bv the com mittee, or take them up with a new is sue. they would take them at ninety cents in the dollar* and lend us on them as much money as we wanted, pay all oar debts, and lift us out of the mire aud raise the credit of the State of Georgia to a higher position tliau it ever occupied before. The event was threatening, the proposition seemed pleasing, and the “consnmation was devoutly to be wished.” Not knowing what else to do, sever al of our best citizens, members of the Legislature, aud others leaned eager ly toward it, and many earnestly fa vored the proposition, arguing that we had better pay what we had solemnly declared we did not owe than that the Stale's credit should be depreciated. At this juncture (fortunately for us, a* it has turned ont.) 1ft. Nutting, of Bibb, Chairman of the Finance Com mittee of the Hook of Representatives prepared and introduced a bill, which was passed as an experiment and the proposition of-the bondholders was pertermitted until the next session, that biQ authorized the issue of twelve hun dred thousand dollars of bonds, bearing eight per cent. Interest, payable semi- annually, and falling due in twelve consecutive yean (oue hundred thou sand dollan each year, from 1875 to 1886, inclusive, when the last install ment would be paiu It also declared them free from the State, county and municipal taxation. These bonds have been prepared for issue as re quired, and are dated 1st April, 1873, ore payable in two. three, four, five years, and so on, up to twelve—the last installment being payable in I860, as above stated. The coupons for in terest will be paid in New York or Atlanta, as convenient or preferable to the holders. When these bonds were ready for issue, remembering the fate of those issued last year for the same purpose, which were sent to New York and subjected to the machinations of Wall street and its arbitrary dictation of prices, ! obtained the consent of the Governor to offer them to our own people, to whom the credit and honor of Georgia were dearer than the Al mighty Dollar, whose patroitism and State pride have never faltered, but have always answered nobly when ap pealed to in the right spitit by those in whom she trusted. Before the bonds were ready for delivery, 1 adver tised them for sale at par, and receiv ed applications amounting to nearly fifty thousand dollars, before they could be delivered, and those applica tions were accompanied with the funds to buy them. At the same time I ad dressed a circular to the Ordinaries of the several counties, requesting them to call the attention of the executors, guardiaus and trustees of estates, to the excellence and strength of the bonds as an investment; aud although it was prophesied that we would not sell one hundred thousand in Georgia, and none elsewhere, except at a ruin ous discount, I have had the good for tune to dispose of eight hundred and fifty thousand dollar* at par, and the expenses ot the sale have not gone higher than one per ceut on the amount sold. By expenses I mean the printing of the bonds, advertising the terms ol sale, printing and distribution of circulars, express, freights, and pos tage; and this has bccu done by an abiding faith that patritoLm and State pride is yet a sentiment and principle of our people, and that Georgians will be true to Georgia at all cost. I hope I may be excused lor men tioning the op|y difficulties I have had to encounter iu the sale oi these bonds, and but tor which I firmly believe I would have disposed of all of them by the middle of the summer. There are among us a few men calling themselves bankers and brokers, dealers in stocks, bonds, railroad and Stale securities— who, iu order to make trado and turn an honest (?) penny, are and have been doing all they kuow to depreciate the credit ot the State, to add another to the list of their commodities. They arc of that class of fishermen to whose net all that come arc fish; of that class of tradprs who would depreciate the Georgia's credit will stand as high as ever. Read'the accompanying circulars carefully ; . inform yourselves thor oughly, and if you have §250 or §500 or ten or twenty thousand dollars that you can nflord' to put ont at 8 per Cent., free from all taxation, payable every six months, equal to a ten per cept investment, remember that the SiRte has* need of it for the present A woman wants yon; don’t forget her.

J The bonds have been taken in the counties as follows: In the county of Barlow—Mrs C M Fields, guardian, invests 8:5,000. in Bibb county—the City Bank of Macon, through its President, lion C A Nutting, takes §50,000; Rev W D Williams, §500; Franklin Lodge, §500; John J Grisham, Esq, §5,0u0; Henry I* Jewett, §5,000, and John E Jones §1,250, making amount taken iu Bibb §01,250. credit of their father if/ ihoy could make anything by it; who would buy their own paper at a discount, if they had their creditor at their raerev.— Teesc men have been engaged in making the holders of the old six per cent, bonds of the State, payable in 1872 and 1873, believe tlmt they cither could uot get their bonds exchang' d, or that it was uot advisable to take meanwhile, though, they have plied their vocation by buying the old bonds at a sharp discount, exchanging them for our eights, am* selling them at an advauce, yet sufficiently Below ;>nr to keep persons scekiug them from tak ing them at the Treasury. These men allow themselves to sec no dis tinction between bearing down the slocks or bonds of a railroad or other corporation living oil the patronage and necessities of the people, aud those of the State to whose laws they, as well as all of us, look for protection and good government, maintained alone by the. very lighted taxation which should be rather under the ne cessity than above it. I was notified, last spring, by our agent in New York, that * broker there bad offered him a lot of Georgia Eights at 85 cents. On consultation with the Governor, I wrote to our agent to buy them ou act ount of the State, and was not surprised to receive his answer that- the broker could not find the man who had authorized him to sell them. A party doing business in Georgia presented, through a No tary Public/ duriug the past summer, at the Treasury, an over-due 6 per cent boud of the State, and demanded payment. I offered him the only thing I was authorized to offer for it. tc-wit: an 8 per cent, bond of the same size, and proffered to tmv him. rency, iuterest ou the old bond up to the date of the new. He refused, sav ing he was so instructed, and that he was further instructed to protest the bond if it was uot paid in currency.— I U>M him he had his answer, and the next day TCCfived ihd prottti or no tice thereof. I was puzZ!. think what was attained by the protest, commercial law it is necessary to bind the indorser of a note. There was no mdorser on the bond, and as lie could not sue the State, I thought lie was out the protest fee without the least prospect of a recovery. Tiie only ob ject, then, was to dcpicciate the credit of the Slate, buy her bonds at a dis count as deep as he could, and when that credit rose again—as he knew it would, in spite of him ami others like him—ho might realize something by the operation. I have before me a circular, in which the same man ad vertises that he has tor sale 10,0X1 new Georgia Eights at 96 cents. I requested a friend to telegraph to him that they would be taken, and archeck sent for the amount. The answer came that the man who had them for sale was out pf the city, but would be seen when he came ip. These acts carry their own commentary. Fellow Citizens : I know that the times arc hard; I know that the swindling ami robbery of our late tulers bave caused our taxes to be burdensome and difficult to meet; know that money is scarce and hard to come by, but'the necessity is on and I must call on you again for the honor of our brave old State, to come forward and take up the balance of unsold bonds. I send you with this a statement of the amount told, the pur chasers and their place of residence. Not more than forty counties are vet represented in this loan to the State. Some of the banks have contributed liberally, a few bounteously, some have not yet taken any, hot I hope they will yet If those counties that have done nothing will take an aver age of thirty-five hundred to the coun ty, the bonds will all be sold, and trustee, In Chatham couuty—General J T Gilmer lakes §250; John R Wilder, Esq, §3,500; Noah B Knapp, §2,250; W L Lawton, §2,000; II S Wetmore, §12,00; Female Orphau Asylum, §2,000; J S Hutton, trustee, §1,250; Bryau & Hunter, §750; J E Gaudry, §250; lion George A Mercer, §250; Geo L Cope, §500; General Henry R Jackson, §0.250; and George Cornwell, trustee for S C Dunning, §10,000, mak- ir •' amount taken in Chatham §41.250.

The Oldest City, Damascus is the oldest city in the world. Tyre and Sidon have crum bled on the shore. Baalbec is a ruin, Palmyra is buried in a desert; Ninc- vali and Babylon have disappeared from the Tigris and the Euphrates.— Damascus remains what it was be- foic the days of Abraham—a centre of trade and travel-au island of ver dure iu the desert; a presidential cai>- ital, with martial and sacred associa tions extending through thirty centu ries. It wns near Damascus that Saul and Tarsus saw the light above the brightness ot the sun; the street, which is called Strait, in which it was said he prayed still ruus through the city. The carivan comes and goes ns it did a thousand years ago; there is still the ehick, the ass and tho water wheel; tho merchants of tho Euphrates and the Mediterranean still occupy theso with the multitude of their wares. The city which Mohamcd surveyed from a neighboring height anti was afraid to enter, as it was givcu to man to have uc paradise, and fot his part he resolved not to have it iu this world; is to day what Sulivan called the eye of the East, as it was iu the time of Isaiah, lhc.head of Syria. It is still a city of flowers; the streams ot Lebanon and the silk of gold still tnur- mcr and sparkle in the wilderness of the .Syrian gardens. -^>*.^- Tiik Hiked Girl.—There is one reason why we should regret to have the present troubles with domestic servants ended, ll is because women derive so much pleasure from discuss- the subject. Place two women together, aud it makes no difference where the conversation starts from, it will be perfectly certain to work around to the hired girl question be fore many minutes have elapsed. We have seen an elderly house-keeper, with experience iu couductio; talk iu the right direction, break into a discussion of Pythagoras and the doctrine ofthc transmigration of souls, am) s»wAti’h off the entire debate with such expedition that au unsophistica ted listener would for some moments have au indistinct impression that the conversation referred to the incfficicn cy of Pythagoras as a washer and ironcr, and to the teudeucy of that hcgtl,ca philosopher to take two Thursdays out every week. And wheu a woman has an unusually vil lainous hired girl who bums up the coal, wastes the butter, mixes her hair in the biscuit, ana stuffs her relations with the sugar, it is interesting to ob serve how the glories in the sujicrior- ity of her sufferings to those of her neighoots, and how, as she tells of them, she gloats over her misery* aud feels good about it A woman who has a really competent servant ways in a condition of abject wretch edness on such occasions.—Max Ad- thr. A Keokuk lady while engaged in the pursuit of domestic duties, encounter ed a mouse in the lloor barrel. Now, most ladies under smnfiar circumstan ces would have uttered a few feminine shrieks and then sought safety iu the garret. But this one poscsscs more lhau the ordinary* degree of ferna!* courage.—She summoned the hired man and told him to fcot the shot gup, call the ball clog, and station hinm-lt at a convenient distance. Then she climbed hall way up the stairs an J commenced to punch the flour barrel vigorously with a pole. Presently the mpuae made iu appearance and star ted across the floor. The bull dog at once went in pursuit. The man fired and the dog dropped dead. The lady fainted and fell down the stairs, and the hired man, thinking that she was killed, and fearing that be would be arrested for murder, lit out, and has not been seen since. The moose es caped.
