IVINiE DAVID IRWIX,
Ws are there are two candidates for
tin Legislature iu Cobb county to fill
the vacancy occasioned by the resigna
tion at Ho*. W. D., Anderson, to-wit:
Gen. Win. Philips and Judge David Ir
win. Both of these geutleinen hare been
put forwar t by their friends, and either
would do honor to the State and their
constituency ; but, notwithstanding the
entire fitties* of Oen. Philips, we desire
to see Judge Irwin e member of the
Legislature. He is a thorough states
man and profouud lawyer, and no man
in the State is better suited to enact or
modify the laws for tk* Government of
Georgia thau he is.
m BL.IGKIR' Z POLITIC*.
Hou. W- D. Anderson, member of the
Ga. Legislature from Cobb oouuty, and
one of the most able representatives
composing the body, previous to tbs sit
ting of the North Georgia Conference,
sent his resignation to tlie Governor,
which was accepted—joined the Confer
ence, and has been assigned to duty at
Eatenton. .
This is another valuable testimony to
the truth and power of religion. All
who have ouaiti iu ooutact with Mr. An
derson, or know auytbiug of bis public
career, will admit his superior intellectual
ability, and when a man of Isis, promise
is law and politics buries these peculiar
talents to become, not only a follower,
but an advocate of the meek and lowly
Jesus, it is certainly a rebuke to those
who recognise religion ouly as a science,
or au Inn.
Al'R RUtTIHRRIi U)R(iRKNRIIBK.
Pur the first time since the war, with
the exception of the members from three j
States our Caugressmeu are truly ti.e '
representatives of the people. They
have gone in response to the call of
the intelligent masse*, and having until
ing but the welfare of tl>« country in
view, we may expect tmiter things of
them than we realised at the hands o
their predecessors.
The days of sectional legislation are
fast drawing to u close, and already par
tlzaui who have the will to disturb the
politital element very timidly upptnach
any iasuo calculated to break the digni
fied silence of tie me who have the love
•of couutry at heart.
With ths vantage ground now held by
the Southern Democracy over the Suutii
«m RadieuU uud tlie sy mpatliy by which
we are met by the Democrats of the
West, we believe that prudential action
on the part of our Representatives in
Cougreas will do more hi defeat the third
term project than any other power.

A FATAL DC EL NhAR AUGUSTA.
A hostile meetiug Ix-lwoeu two promi
nent citizens of Augusta took place at
tSiuuhiu I'erty, ou the Sou h Carolina
side, ou Thursday evening last. The
parties to this tragic afl'air were Mr.
Charles D. Tilly, a Commission Mer
chant, and Geo. E. Katcliffe, Cotton
Broker.
Hie difficulty originated from reports
circulated by Mr. Batdiffe derogatory to 1
the character of Mr. Tilley, aud upon
the refuiskl of the former to produce the
name of the author of the reports the
latter aeut him a challenge w hich wa*
accepted.
The weapon*. Used were Colt’s Navy
TisWs, at ten psoeß, Mr. Tilly received
. the fats! wound" all he first fire, the ball
entering above the right hip aud passing
through the bowels lodged under the
kkm on the left side. He lingered uutil ;
BViday eveuiug wUu he died. Previous
to bis death be stated that he forgave his I
advenafy. Her. W. H. Clark, rector of
St Paula f.piicopal church was with
him dunog Friday, prayed with him and
talked with him shout thv future lieyond
the grave. The Chronicle A Sentinel at j
Saturday has the following in reference
to the last momenta of the deceased, aud
bis nativity:
“Mr. Tilly wsa deeply impressed,
prayed fervently and expressed his abi
diug faith iu the mercy of a gracions Re
ilevmey. He repeated from time to time,
pannage* from Scripture, displaying a
perfect acquaintance with that Holy
itook. J oat before he died he repeated
ths Lord's prayer in s touching manner.
From Mr. Tilly’s most intimate friend,
Mr. W. H. Scott, < f the firm ot Branch,
Scott A Cos., we obtain the following
uaniegtare in reference to thp and. ceased :
Mr. Tilly was born m county Wicklow,
Ireland, ou the 16th of June* 1845, and
wm consequently in the thirty-first year
of bis sge at the time of bis death. Flis
parents are dead, but two of hie sisters
and Two brothers arc now living in coun
ty Carlow, Ireland. One of hissistersis
Mr*. Annersly. One of his brothers is a
clergyman of the oliuroh of England,
and the other is.au officer in the cuustab
-1 ulary force of Ireland. Mr. Tilly came
j to this oountry iu 1667, and went to New
I York, where he remained two years. In
IWW he came to Augusta. He was then
in the employ of Branch, Scott A Cos.,
and remained with them until 1673, when
lie went into business ou his own ac
sount. lie was much esteemed and re
spected by the firm, who parted with
him with regret. He had many friends
in Augusta. His untimely eta, in the
! ftush ol vigorous manhood, is deeply d«-
> plored in the community.

Mxsrms. Eiktoks :
Os o»r trip t» Texas you said you
would like to have a sort of history, and
as many of your readers are friends or
relatives of our party I give it unhesita
tingly, with tire request that you correct
errors. We left Baling, thirty-eight iu
number, at 11:4b, a. m., on the 15th of
Nov. for Texas, md through the good
ness and mercy of an Ait-wise Provi
dence, wo landed safe at our destina
tion on the lDtll, at 6 a. nt., making
shout fourteen huiklml miles iu ninety
hour*.
We were quit* fertnua’c on th* trip
though danger seomed to threatoii 011 ev
ery hand. While travelling by rail at
the rate of about tweutj lades per hour,
snddeuly and nnaxpeetaiiy our boiler

no one was hurt. Only two or three
hours were necessary for repairs, aud
aguin we were raoviug on. Ve made the
uesired connection aud passed Mobile to
Now (Means, where we took ship for
Galveston, the main seuj ort qf our
silopteil State.
Ou the passage (icrosa the Gulf noth
ing of much moment occurred except the
springing of a leak iu our vessel, which'
was overcome by the prompt discharge
if duty ou the part „l the ship’s crew,
who were faithful und courteous to all.
We set sail at Barnett with thirty
eight, and arrived with forty ; two,
seemingly clever, industrious, worthy
young men, having joined our party in
Alabama.
Os Texas I am not able to write much
at present, but will, from time to time,
write you a line if you desire it. Much
of the land is certaiuly very rich and the
chances for laborers, especially for the
young, are surely bettor than in the old
States. Os the people I must say they
are kind, hospitable ami generous, such
as will ever make the gratitude, flow from
the heart of the stranger iu all land* and
countries. Our party have rented laud
fov one year, uud will look ut much of

We ask to lie reiucmliered with lore to

TMK IIOMUSTKAD I,AW.
Mxasas. Editors :
Tiie article over the signature of "In
dex' is evidence of an able pen, and
good and cogsut reasons are urged why
the homestead law should be repealed.
In other words, why a Convention should
be called to amend the Constitution to
that end. Htill, I question, under all the
oircurastaiice* that now attorn) us, fiuuu
oialiy, a» a people, the policy inaugurated
to altar the "homestead laws.”
Ever since the passage of the law I
have notiood that there has lieeu a hitter
hostility to it from certain classes und
quarters, aud it t» probable that «oiue of
these chiasmi/who have lieeu loudest iu
J.uounoiug the homestead have uot, for
a moment, considered that the prune ob
ject of the “homestead clause" iu the
Coustitutiou wua-uot go much to defraud
creditors as to secure a home for the des
titute, ami nay more, soldiers aud their
families, against unjust oppression, aud
while much ado has I wen made, a hue
aud cry raised against the provision, will
A uot be questioned whether this hue and
cry is not agaiu*t the manner of assess
ing the value of a.homestead rather than
the provision for the homestead.
Now it is urged that ou uooouut of the
existing law, our people are denied cred
it, and heuoe our depressed condition
aud waut of prosperity. Thia idea, to
one who ia posted in oommeroiai Hffairs,
is simply preposterous, aud I maintain
that the swiudiiug process of factors ou
fertilizers aud liens, is an evil four fold
greater than the application for exenip
tiuu of homesteads.
liook at the matter from a sensible
standpoint. Can our people bniki up
aud retrieve under the present scathing
rates of interest on a one thousand dol
lar exemption auy sooner than ou the
present valuation ? And those who are
Clamoring for a reduction seem to over
.«>k the stariug fact that at the present
rate of depression financially a hoiue
steapot the value of three thousand dol
lars now will be of the Value of one
thousand by the time the Constitution is
altered.,
Again, every legal mind is aware of the
question involved, already mooted, as to
the power of the Legislature to lessen
the value of the homestead hs fixed by
law. Then these are “vested rights’’ se
cured by that act, based upon •• the Con
stitution, and if the late decision of the
Supreme Coart is correct, as to "entail
ment of homesteads,” I hold that the
con Sait tof those who have received the
exemption mast first be obtained in or.
der to reduce the valuation. It i« true
that those citizens who have not applied
for the exemption .guy waive the right,
| tint even in doing this, the question
would arise, are the families deuied ?
It would be well if our professed
statesmen would open their eyes to the
present distressed condition of the State
at large, and while divining the causes of
such pecuniary distress, make some en
deavor to relieve the people. After all
that may lie said, our preseut condition
is the result of ths cotton manis amongst
farmers, which has taken but seven years
to use them np, root and branch ; aud
now that the tactics in farming is from
stern necessity taking a change, we
ought to cheer np and extend assistance.
Until the planting interests of our State
can be propped np by some encourage
ment in the way of interest rates ou pro
visions, until we can see daylight, wo
may as well hang up and lie ready to
mourn tke “glory departed” of the Em
pire State. It is a bad sign to witness
the emigration of thousands from our
State, simply f'jr the want of encourage
ment, and they are going duily.
Iu my next, Messrs. Editors, I shall
discuss the policy of calling a Conven
tion. Hamilton.

(COMMUNICATED. )
RANDALL AND UK HAHDNON.
A REMINISCENCE.
Messrs Edit urn :
In common with a majority of the
people of the Union I rejoice in the
election of Mr. Kerr, the “honest mon
ay” candidate for Speaker of the Forty
fourth Congress. But the name of his
defeated opponent, Hon. Hninnel Ran
dall, a most excellent gentlemau, remits
an incident that occurred in the National
Democratic Convention at Charleston, iu
April, 1860.
Most of your older readers will remem
ber that there was an intensely bitter
feeling iu that Convention between the
ttrienda and opixiueuts of the "Little
Giant," and that the Convention, after a
stormy aession of several days “basted”
ami adjourned ; ami that was the liegiu
niug of the end. Mr. Randall, along
with lieu Hntler aud other Northern
Democrats, sided with the South, while
bully Bill Richardson, of Illinois, was
the “right bower” of the lamented
Douglass. Richardson was a large, tall
heavy mau, of the “hog driver” style of
Huosiern, while Randal! ia a thin, sharp,
wiry, gentleman-like man of mndinm
size.
After some rather rough sparring be
tween these two, Richardson, -with his
sleeves rolled np, aud witli considerable
insolence, said to the Chair that he would
not take any personal exception* at the
remarks of the gentlemnu from Pennsyl
vania, that his age exempted him—or
words to that effect. No sooner was this
Uttered than up popped Randall, like
“Jack in a box,” his steel gray eyes
ablaze, ami interrupted Bill to say em
phatically : “I desire to say to the gen
tlemun from Illinois that 1 nus born the
same year he was”—intimating plainly
that he claimed nothing ou the score of
age. This caused quite <1 momentaiy
stir, Randall sitting to the right uud rear
of Richiudsou some twenty feet. The
luttor merely sneered and proceeded, but
he took good care to offer no further in
dignity.
Beside* these two I recall, after all
these years, muny other members of that
body, of which I may hereafter
furnish some rood lections. Prominent
among them I may name Yancey, Purry,
Marion, Buvard, Pugh, Butler, Cochran,
Fernando Wood, Samuels of lowa, Big
ler, aud rnauy more, including the Pres
ident, that “Oily Gammon" Caleb Cush
ing, uow Minuter to Madrid.
The planters at Burke county recently
met, at \\ ayneshnro, and resolved that of
the three classes of labor the wages sys
tem was the best; that the share system
will do if properly supervised, and that
the tenant system should lie abaudoned.
They also resolved that furm labor m
cotton country is necessarily Os twelve
mouth’s service, aud should 1* so eu
fjiged. The giving of Natiujiuy as a. rest
day was pronounced mischievous aud de
moralizing, and so was tile practice of
certain merchants iu puechasiug seed
cotton. They then pledg*d themselves
uot to plant over lifteeu acres of cotton
to the plow or pay more thau sixty dol
lars a year to a field hand.
Mi'. Hobbs, iu Warreu county, wus
beating his dog with the breech of bus
gun the other day, when tlie ooutcuts 1 (
it were lodged in ins utidy.aen. He was
a yoiiug mull, aud leaves many relatives
to mourn his loss.
Hereafter a passenger car will be at
tached to the freight train on the Geor
gia Railroad, which leaves Augusta at
10:50 a. ui., making a close connection
at Camak with the Alacou traiu.
Hon. Maik A Cooper has been elected
to the State Senate without opposition.
