Tun Georgia papers have already
commenced their vigils over the appro
prialiation for anew capital,but none
of them feel quite able to beat back
the thieves and robbers. They seem
to think the amount necessary to

of the undertaking and to build the

of one; but we hope tor better lock to
the state.
Jay Gottut is opposed to a pos

ridiculous position of the pet calling

a candid acknowledgement, it I
reads us a dissertation on running
daily papers and patent outsides. It
presumes that we know nothing of
running a daily, but its presumption
overtops the facts iu the case; and ns
to its slurs on patent outsides, it is far
behind the times. Kerne of the best
weekly papers in Georgia use patent
outsides, aud there is no reason why
a paper should not use them if they
eau be used to the advantage ol both
publishers and reader*. The theory
that they would not do was long ago
exploded. The less the New* and
Advertiser has to say about an in
iijuitv that it was more guilty of than
the Gazbtts. the less ridiculous will
be its position The error was not
our own; but it was not so with our
South Georgia neighbor.

• L: • i eek c only had time before
going to press to merely make a men
tion of Don. M. t\ Beesc’s speech on
the above named bill. Below we give
his remarks in ful::
Mr Speaker—My friend from Bibb
basaptly defined the purpose of this
bill. He has declared that the bill
doc* uot propose to punish the ob
taining advanc* by a laborer from
his employer on a i ant fraudu
lent promise in pay for lie same iu
labor, but that its pur; ose is to puu
isb such laborer /or \ iolatinj hi*
1 contract in quitting such employer
wiihout working out his advances.
This then is the issue, whether or not
this house will make the violation of
a labor contract by the employe a
crime. Ido not think, sir, we should
d,o it. In my judgment it Is not
only not in our power to do it but it
would be unwise to do so had we the
power. Section 4587 of the code,
which this bill proposes to amend,
punishes persons who arc guilty of
getting goods by false representations,
of who are guilty of procuring others
Jio make such false and fraudulent
representations for them—it is intend
ed to punish conduct that is original
ly fraudulent—promises and state
ments false when made, and so known
tp lie ami so intended to be. This
Mil—Hie proposed amendment to that
section —ignores the intention with
'which the supplies wero obtained,
takes no notice of it and cares noth
ing for it, but declares that the failure
ami refusal of an employe to work
out his debt for supplies for which lie
has agreed to pay with his labor
sliajl constitute such employe a cheat
and swindler. It might just as well
have declared him a murderer for his
conduct uo inyre makes him one than
the other. It is a plain, deliberate
attempt to make criminal the viola
tion of a labor contract, when it is the
employe who happens to bo the vio
lator, with no corresponding penally
on the part of the employer, when he
is the party that violates it. Mo mat
ter what the bill calls it, a court will
hold this to be nothing more or less
titan an attempt to resurrect impris
onment fer debt—prohibited by the
constitution of the state, if this bill
proposed to punish and make crimi
nal the conduct of a man in getting
supplies advanced to him on bis
promise to pay for the same iu work,
which promise was false and fraudu
lent when made, the man not intend
ing to keep it when lie made it, Mil
then and there intended to violate it,
it would be in line with the section
proposed to be amended, and would
stand the test of the courts. The
party,offending would he guilty of
fraudulent conduct and would be iu
part as well as in name a cheat and
swindler. But to say, sir, that a
promise honestly made and intended
to he kept when made, and afterwards
violated for a good reason, or even a
bad reason, makes the party a cheat
amla swindler is an absurdity—it K
Imprisonment lor debt and nothing
else, and the courts will so hold. This
bill, Mr.speaker, cannot be pub on
that clause of our constitution giving
us authority to punish frauds,as it does
not propose to punish u fraud but to
the contrary punishes a man for vio
lating his contract, u thing which we
may all condemn but which is certain
ly not u fraud. This hill is not like
a ease of larceny after trust to which
it lias been compared. There property
of A is entrused to B for a certain
<,l t *'**“*"
with Ids agreement the law iiforiy
steps iu and punishes him for his
brcaeli of trust, hut here the supplies
are furnished to the employe. They
are Ids, the title vest* in him and the
seller or employer has no further in
terest iu them or over them.
While this bill,Mr. Speaker, makes
so highly criminal an employe getting
supplies on ids promise to pay for
them in labor and then falling to do
so, it Is strangely silent as to the em
ployer who gets work from Ids em
ploye on his promise to pay him sup
plies or money, and failing so to do.
Why make criminal the conduct of
the employe, ami let the employer go
tree when ho violates his contract.
This, Mr. Speaker, is in my judg
ment a denial of the equal protection
of the lows guaranteed by the federal
constitution. In any event, it is
wrong, it is one aided and if there
over was siicli a tiling, class legis
lation.
The whole power Is given to the
employer, and the mouth of the em
ploye is sealed. Uc cannot he heard
to make out even the poor excuse al
lowed by the bill, that his employer
made him quit. If there over was a
casCj Mr. Hpoakur, that should re
quire other evidence than that of the
prosecutor to secure a conviction this,
lir, Is the case. If (his be a good bill,
ami it be right aud proper to punish
employes who violate labor contracts,
why confine it to that particular class.
Why give to them a monopoly of this
good thing. 1. think sir, If it is right
andbproper ibr violators of labor con
tracts to be punished we shorn! extend
It to all violators of all kinds of con
tract*. The labor. Mr. .Speaker, that
this bill will enable an employer
10 keep, will not be of any value to
him or the country, but it will as sure
ly as it b> passed have the etl'eet of
driving from Georgia a large per
cent of its best labor. This kind of
legislation. Mr. Speaker, will hurt the
state of Georgia and the democratic
party. Pass this bill and it will not
be long before the bill with the title
changed irom the one you give it to
the one given the bill by the gentle
man front Hanks, Ihe slavery bill, will
tie published alt over this broad ian.d,
hurting our slate more than any pos
sible good its most sanguine fiicuds
could have hoped for,
Mr. S|>eker, the people ol Georgia
—the white people I mean—have en
tire control tf the govern men (.and w e
cannot alfurtt to treat the colored peo
ple at whom this bill is aimed, uuf I.'-
ly or unjustly. The bill being unfair
and unjust it ought uot to puss, and 1
do hope will be defeated.

Great Volcanic Eruption In the Indian
Archipelago.
Dispatches from London state that
further particulars of (he great vol
canic eruption in Java, which have
just reached here from Batavia, show
that Ui6 disaster was even more wide
spead and more disastrous than re
ported iu yesterday’s advices. At
noon Sunday the eruptions and
shocks were *np|io*ed to have reach
ed thrir height, but late in tlie after
noon and evening the violence of fbe
disturbance suddenly increased, anil
the island seemed about to be com
pletely buried in fire anil sulphurous
ashes. At the same lime the enor
mous waves began to dash with
gieater force upon the shores, coming
in some places far up into ilie interior,
and great chasms opened in the earth
and threatened to engulf a large pro
portion of the people and buildings.
About midnight the most frightful
scene of all took place. Suddenly an
cnoriimus luminous cloud similar to
that wkieh was seen *jver the Gun
nitng Glintin',but much greater in (x
--teul, ft nueil over the Kundaiig range
of mountain* which skirt the south
east coast of the ish ml. This cloud
gradually Increased in sire until it
formed a canopy of lurid red and
whitish grey over a wide extent of
territory. During this time the erup-
tions increased, and streams of lava
poured incessantly down the sides of
the mountains into the valleys, sweep
ing everything before tlisiu. Here
and there a stream of lava would en
ter an arm of ihc sea or come in con
tact with the water of a river. Then
(lie incandescent lava would sudden
ly produce boiling heat and rapid
vaporization, but the superficial con
solidation that almost instantly en
sued would prevent any further con
tact with the water. The fissures that
opened in this thin crust us it solidi
fied on the stream of laya emitted tor
rents of vapor extending high Into
the air and milking a tremendous
seething so.iml hs ir a thousand loco
motives were simultaneously letting
otl’ sterna. Hero and tliero in the la
va streams were innumerable thin
plate-like crystals of feldspar ar
ranged in trains one behind the other
in the direction of the flow of the
current and felsplmtii; spherotiles
were rapidly formed in the vitreous
matter, resembling those which form
In tjie slag of glass furnaces.
After the sudden subsidence of the
dislui bailees in tlvo Kingdom of Ban
tam Monday, the eruption teemed to
loose their force for a time, and the
people of Batavia experienced a fool
ing of relief Iu the hope that the
worst luid passed. The quieter ron
diiion* continued until about 10
oclock, when the craters once more
began to send up great masses of de- 1
slructive matter, although without
the force of the former actions. The I
eruption* seemed to be more violent
idgTT tTifif tTii fffij'- • iTay. fly
11 o’clock iho i’upaudayasg. which is
7,034 feet high, was in a very active
state of paroxysmal eruption. Ii
was accompanied by defoliation* said
to Imvo been heard miles away In Su
mutrii. Three distinct columns of
flame were seou to rise from the
mountain to vast heights, and its
whole surface soon appeared as if
covered with fiery lava streams,
which spread to great distances on all
sides. Stones fell for miles around,
and the black, fragmentary matter
carried into tho air caused total dark
ness. A whirlwind accompanied this
eruption, by which house*, roots,
trees amt men ami horses wero cur
ried info the air. The quantity or
ashes ejected was such as to cover the
ground and roofs ot houses at Delia
mo fo Iho depth of several inches.
Oil Point Catty the floating pumice
on the tint formed a layer two feet
thick, through which vessels forced
their way with great difficulty. The
rise of vapor produced the appearance
of a column several thousand (Vet
high, based on the edge of the crater.
It appeared from a distance to con
sist ofa mass of innumerable globu
lar clouds of extreme whiteness, re

plies, incessantly urged upward by
the continued explosions. At a col
umn dilated lioriaontHlly and spread
ini* a dark uml turbid circular cloud,
shafted like an Immense umbrella.
Forked lightning of great vividness
and Mauty continually darted from
different parts ot the clouds.
Suddenly the scene was changed.
The mountain was split into seven
parts without a moment’s warning,
and where Papandayiug had stood
alone P ere were seven distinct peaks
looming ap to a great height. In the
seam* opened could be aen great
balls of molten matter. Prom the As
sures poured clouds of steam, aud the
black ejected lapll!* flowed down the
mountain side*, forming beds two or
three hundred feet in extent. Exha
lation-of carbonic acid gas wore *o
abundant that lords and animal* in
large numbers wore killed by it, and
a few human beings lost their lives in
the same way.
This proved to be the turning poiut
it lit* eruption, for the great Assures
when opened termed to act a* safe
ty valve*, through which the streams
of lava gently flowed down into the
valleys. The volcanic fires, though
still hurtling at last advices, had lost
most of their fierceness, aud the steam
g -aerated found vent without beiug
forced through the comparatively
uarrow mouths of tho old crater*.
One of the queer incidents was (ho
sudden rising Tuesday forenoon of
fourteen uew vulcanic mountain* hi
the Straits of Sunda, forming a com
plete chain in aim > t a straight line
between Point St. Nicholas, ou the
Javanese coast, and lloga feint, on
the eoaal of Sutnatri. almost on the
reps of what had been the Mertk
and Middle Islands, which sank into
the sea Monday.
So serious are the change* In the
roast, and the entire formation of the
Sirait* of Suuda. that the British
GoVornment and the Lloyds this eve
ning telegraphed from London to all
foreign points warning vessels that
navigation of i hero waters had become
exceedingly dangerous.
In I lie city of Bantam, wh*re
1,500 persons were first supposed to
have perished, the bodies of 2,800
hare already been recovered. Some
000 inhabitant*of the interior town
of Waronage are now known to have
been killed, and at Talatra, on the
coast, 300 bodies have been found.
From all over the island come report!
of loss of life and property, and it is
thought nt Batavia the estimates,
75,000 killed, will not prove excessive.
On the lowlands ot Batavia, where
the waters have receded and quieted
down, Ii ii m] coils of bruited and man
gled bodies are lying exposed. A
sanitary corps has been formed and
the corpses are being removed and
buried as fast as possible in order to
prevent the breeding and spread of
contagion. While there is some cause
for anxiety on Inis syoi'c, it is thought
the greater number of bodies in the
interior weie so dried and scorched
by the hot lava and stone* that they
will not putrefy, and the bodies of
those drowned by the tidal waves can
be taken care of wrtli reasonable fa
cility by the coast sanitary corps, now
rapidly getting to work.” ,

neys and other important organs, re
moving the waste tissue, and adding

A Perfect Remedy in 20 Diseases.
Asiifiklp, Mass.
I am verging on eighty years, and
deem it my duty to lufTering humanity
to say that my loug life is due tw Bit an*
kkkth’s Pills which have lieen my
eole medicine for half a century. I
know the last forty-three years of mv
life is owing solely to their use. Your
Pills saved me many limes after the
best medical skill in several Stales had
given me up as hopeless. 1 have had
many converts w purgation with
Bkanidukth’s Pills, and have seen
them perform almost miracles of cure.
For children, a few dosft have cured
measles, scarlet fever, and whooping
cough. In ail female troubles and
weakness I have never known them
to fail, in adult male* I have known
them to cure the worst cases ofdyspep
sia, rheumatism, kidney diseases, dys
entery and and diarrhroa; even dropsy,
paralysis, and apoplexy have yielded
to u persistent course of Huandhetii's
Pii.ls. In fact I have found them the
true Life Elixir. They act as con tin
nui preventives against the effects of
time, disease and labor.
