C. M.'S AND B. P.’S
Our Debatin'/ Society ’ lifts gravely
undertaken to dispute over the ques
tion, “Is C. M. worse than P. Con
pressmen ?” Most of our reiideis may
not understand that B. P. stands tor
“Back Pay,” while they may readily
perceive that 0. M. means Oaks Am us
& Cos. The inchoative Demosthenes of
this learned association may find aigu
ments for both sides of the question
proposed, but for our part we can only
perceive, whether applied to the nation
or to Georgia,a most one-sided set of ar
guments. With the profouudest shame
we yield, in this one instance of a fail
test, the palm of honesty to the northern
part of the “Glorious Union,” and are
ready, iu these solemn words, to pro
nounce judgmeut, when called to tho
chair of “ Our Debating Society'
u Young gentlemen , the D. D.s have it!
Unquestionably C. M. was a most vil
lainous piece of business, but tho un
scrupulous act of the B. P.’s is certainly
“the rankest compound of villainous
robbery that has ever yet been perpe
trated on the American people. This
we are obliged to confess was peifoimcd
mainly by Southern Congressmen. The
dire earnestuees after pelf is the most
alarming symptom of the whole thing.
If we oould have possibly met with the
excuse that, it was misguided judgment,
and had seen recantations after an in
dignant people had Bpoken through the
scathing rebukes of the press, we may
have been ablo to say, “go, and sin no
more but, woe to Southron honesty !
there has been no retractions, and the
eviscerated treasury is a silent monu
ment to the decay of our sectional in
tegrity. The grasp which pallida mors
is said to hold on a defunct descendent
of Ham has been successfully rivalled
by the grasp of Southern members on
the li demnitwn cash" obtained by the
B. P. act. Young gentlemen, we must
again solemnly insist that the B. P.’s
have it. But. if your ingenuity can
summon up one palliating argument to
plant as a sweet-scented grass over the
grave of our entombed reputation,in the
name of Honesty, let us hear. We do
not say we will never vote for a B. P.;
because we did, to be a Democrat, vote
very strangely in the last Presidential
contest —but we pray now that the God
of Politics may save us in future from
such damnable heresies.
COTJNTY REVENUE.
We understand that the Supreme
Court of Georgia have decided, in a
ease carried up from Suuitcr county,
that but one hundred per cent, on the
State tax can be levied for county pur
poses. The grand jury of that county,
at the May term, 1872, recommended
that 295 per cent, on the State tax be
raised. We suppose that most of these
taxes have been collected. But in the
face of the decision referred to, what is
to be done in the future ?
The whole amount of property re
turned as subject to taxation in the
county of Burke is $1,892,503. Four
tenths of one per cent, (which is all
that can be collected for county pur
poses under the decision referred to),
wonld only realize the sum of $7,570.
Upon inquiry we Lam that $7,000
or SB,OOO is exhausted annually in de
fraying expenses of Superior Court;
$3,000 in keeping up bridges; $2,000
for jail and SSOO for support of paupers.
Twelve thousand dollars of county
bonds are now in judgment, and six
thousand dollars more are due, but
have not been sued. Allowing $3,000
for the payment of County Treasurer,
Receiver, aod Collector, and $l2O in
terest on bouds, we have a sum total of
$16,000 or $17,000 for current ex
penses of the county for one year, and
not including the $12,000 of bonds now
in judgment.
W* think this estimate is correct,
after carefully examining the subject,
and desire to call the attention of
thinking men to the financial affairs of
our county. ,
From inspection of tho tax books wo
arc convinced that property is returned
at much less than its market value.—
Section 1121 of tho Code makes it the
duty of the Receiver to take the re
turns under oath or affirmation. Sec
tions 83") and 836 make it his duty to
scrutinize all returns made to him, and
if,.in his opinion, property is returned
at les than its value, ho is required to
place an estimate on said property,
from which estimate, the tax payer has
an appeal by arbitration. \\ lien the
Receiver takes oath of office he
solemnly swears to carry out these re
quirements of the Code, which are par
ticularly mentioned in said oath of
office. As Receivers neglect to do
their duty in this particular, the result
is a most unequal distribution of the
burthen of taxes, and an amount raised
by taxation ridiculously small for the
extent and wealth of Burke, and totally
inadequate to defray the current ex
penses of the county.
We call the attention of the grand
jury to this subject that they may have
time to devise a remedy, and in their
capacity as guardians of the public,
prevent the wrong done to conscientious
tax payers, and provide a remedy for
our financial difficulties. Either the
Receiver must be required to do his
duty or a bill passed by the legislature
authorizing the election of a board of
commissioners, whose duty it shall be
to assess all property. We prefer the
first method, on the ground of economy
and because we think it no more diffi
cult to compel the Receiver to do his
duty than it would be to compel the
commissioners to do theirs. The law
is ample if you will enforce it. Let us
see if the next grand jury will do its
duty, by remedying this injustice and
providing for this emergency —or end
their .sittings in a farce, by making
general recommendation?, high-sound
ing and meaningless. f

A PUBLIC CALAMIIY.
HOMESTEAD AM) RELIEF.
NUMBER I.
Mr. Editor: —The recent decisions of
the Supreme Court of the United States,
iu the cases of Walker vs. Whitehead
and Gunn vs. Barry, have fallen like a
thunderbolt upon our distressed and
struggling people; and are destined to
prove Pandora boxes, from which will
spring almost interminable evils. The
whole people of Georgia, by gradual
reaction, had reached a point sufficient
ly remote from the losses and disasters
of war, to encourage tho hope of pro
gress and prosperity iu the future.—
Men Were beginning to feel safe in their
homes, and were no longer oppressed by
fears of starvation and death. They
could look upon their wives and children
without dread of immediate destitution;
j for whatever may be said of our Ilotne
i stead and Relief laws, in a strictly tech
i meal poiut of view, they have been the sal
i ration of the people of Georgia; and pub
j lie opinion should sustain them as great
j Acts of Peace and Settlement. These
decisions will inflict a blow scarcely less
| severe than that which followed the
j closing scenes of tho war itself. Inline
-1 diately and remotely both debtor and
| creditor must -suffer under this unex
l pectod shock. Trade, agriculture and
finance will tumble and fall. The old
i judgment creditor may reap a tempora
ry benefit; but he will paralize and de
stroy the very means from which alone
he can hope to derive advantage in the
future. He is killing, in his hot desire,
the goOse that laid the golden egg. De
strop the family , and the State dies; pro
tect it, and the people prosper. These
truths should be solemnly pondered by
our whole people; and tho lawyers—
those noble guardians of public liberty
and private interests, should move to
mold opinion in this alarming crisis.—
Let them advise clients to leniency and
moderation; promote compromises, and,
if possible effect settlements. They may
lose a few paltry fees by such a course,
but their reward will come hereafter,
and their philanthropy and patriotism
be remembered and cherished by a
grateful people. TULLY.

A LEAF FROM HISTORY.
Why the Federal Government Did Not
Prosecute Jeff'. Davis.
A distinguished party of gentlemen
from Massachusetts, who arrived in the
city last Wednesday on their way far
tlier South, and a elect party of Char
leston gentlemen, -vho had been invited
to meet them, were entertained by Col.
Richard Lathers, at his mansion on tho
South battery, yesterday afternoon.—
The visitors from tho North were the
Hon. John 11. Clifford, who has held
successively the positions of Attorney
General, Governor and Supreme Ccprt
Justice of Massachusetts, and who is
now the President of the Boston and
Providence Railroad Company ;• the
lion. John C. Iloadlcy, of Lawrence,
Muss.; Major 11. C. Brooks, and one
or two other gentlemen. The Char
lestonians who were invited to meet
them included a number of the most
prominent gentlemen of the city, mud
the meeting of these representative men
from the‘political antipodes of the
country proved an exceedingly pleasant
one, both parties taking occasion to ex
press to their host the pleasure that the
meeting afforded them.
Judge Clifford is one of the most
distinguished jurists of Massachusetts,
and has bucu prominently connected
with several events which have become
matters of national, history. The fa
mous Wcbster-Parkman murder oc
curred while he was the Attorney Gen
eral of Massachusetts, and lie conducted
the prosecution of that case to its final
result in the execution of Dr. Webster
for bis atrocious crime. Another event
of great historical interest in which
Judge Clifford partcipated was the
solemn consultation of a s nail number
of the most able lawyers of the North at
Washington, a few months after war,
upon the momentous question as to
wlmtner the Federal Government should
commence a criminal prosecution against
then Hon. Jefferson Davis for his par
ticipation and leadership in the war of
sect.-don. In this council, which was
surrounded at the time with the utmost
secrecy, and which lias never yet been
described, were United States Attor
ney General Speed, Judge Clifford, the
lion. William M. Evarts, and perhaps
half a dozen others wiio had been se
lected from the Northern profession for
their legal ability and acumen, and
the result, of thuir deliberation was the
sudden abandonment of the case by the
Federal Government in view of,the in
surmountable deffiouities in the way of
getting a final conviction, which were
revealed by their patient study of tho
law bearing upon the ease. Mr. Hoad
hy, thou and now a near neighbor and
intimate friend of Judge Clifford, re
lates that before thA latter set out for
Washington to join this- conference lie
paid him (Mr. Headley) the compli
ment of calling upon him to consult,
upon the momentous questiou which he
was about to assist in solving, and it
was agreed between them that, unless it
was clear that the conviction of Mr.
Davis would follow his trial, and that
the law and the facts on the side of (he
prosecution would be irresistable in the
Supreme Court as well as in whatever
court of original jurisdiction the case
might be initiated, it would be tho part
of wisdom and true statesmanship as
well as policy not to begin the prosecu
tion.
The conference took place and was
long, learned and profound. The Fed
eral Constitution, the law' of nations,
the decisions of the Supreme Court in
the trial of Aaron Burr, and other causes
| celebre , having more or less bearing on
| the case then under consideration, and
the whole list of State trials in the his
| tory of the civilized world, were studied
; weighed, analyzed and dissected. The
council was divided upon some points
! and agreed upon others. Some were at
| first strenuous for prosecution, others
who had weighed the subject more care
-1 full insisted from the first upon the
futility of such a course, and finally the
wiser counsels of the latter prevailed
and the proposed prosecution of Mr.
Davis was, as will be remembered, sud
denly abandoned, although it may
doubtless, be news to many of our read
ers to learn that this sudden change of
policy was the direct result of the
solemn conclave,
After tin* council liad adjourned, and
Judge (llilford had returned to hUhoine. |
Mr. Ifofidley ii:quiml*tlie result of tlioir
deliberation*, and Judgo Clifford made
a striking and characteristic reply ii)
something like the following language:
“ Romarkublo as tlie facts may appear,
wo tiud that the laws of the United
States are not so constructed as to af
ford any certainty if punishing high
treason or re bell ion, and Mr, Davis, if I
arraigned under them cannot bo brought
to conviction. Perhaps it is that the
men who framed our fundamental law
and system of government, ucd who
were thm flighting for liberty, with,
baiters about their necks, end not
pay much attention to the , question of
punishing in the futrre the acts which
they were committing themselves.'’
Another reminiscence illustrated the
swftimcnt of the thinking men of tho
North, in 1805, was related by Mr.
lloacßey of the Ron John A. Andre v,
tile Governor of Massachusetts. It
was on tiie day of the grand review of
the federal army in Washington ; a
number of gentlemen were being enter
tained at the residence of Gen. S Ij.
M. B: irlow in that city, and tho conver
sation had turned to tho subject ot
bringing the lenders of the Confederate
cause to punishment under the criminal
law of the land, when Gov. And ew ex
pressed himself as follows : “It can
not be done—the cri initial law has no
application here. Why, it is proved
by its very title that tho criminal law
is a law for law or code
of laws formed by the great body of tho
people, who are in the main good men,
for the regulation ami punishment of
the bad men scattered here and there
throughout society,
“But when a whole people commit
an act rash, impolitic and direful in its
Consequences though it may bo, and the
best and wisest men and woman of the
whole people participate therein, en
courage and lead it, it is impossible to
consider the criminal law as being
framed to meet that ca-c, or as being
in any way applicable thereto.
“These people appealed to the
arbitrament of war, and they have suf
fered bv tho war —ihat is their punish
ment. 1 believe in giving them war,
when it was war they wanted—yes, and
I gave a captain’s Commission once to a
Massachusetts sergeant for no other
reusou than that he had with his own
hands hanged seven guerrillas. That
was war—that was the metstirc of their
puuishment—■•bnt criminal law* has no
thing to do with this case.”
Ttiis declaration of the emphatic Gov
ernor of Massachusetts caused the re
mark, when related yesterday, that it
had an historical parallel ii the fcnmis
words of Burke, when lie told the Brit
ish Parliament, in reference to the
American revolutionists, that lie “knew
of no way to write ail indictment of a
whole people.’
A number of similar reminiscences of
Northern and Southern history were
related, and after an hour or two of
plea.-aat conversation and mutual ex
pressions of a desire tor better acquaint
ance and a fuller appreciation of the
condition of both scctttVi' 3 ot tire emm
! try. the' guests separated, Judge (1.1 if*
ford proceeding with his family to Si.-
I v annul), v, hence lie expects to return in
a few days, to make a longer stay in
this city*.
How it Wokks. —The American
Newspaper Reporter has the matter
about correct, in the following :
“A. and B. both go to N w York at
the same time and buy a similar stock
of goods. On returning, A. change'
the Advertisement which reads: ‘Will
be received in a few days anew assort
ment, 1 etc., to ‘received a now and fresh
assortment, just from New York,’ etc,
which is offered for sale at t e lowest,
cash rates.” The advertisement comes
out the next day, and in a 0 wu of 15,-
0(10 inhabitants, 10,000 will know of
A’s stock of fresh goods before they
hear of B’s arrival. In fact, B. not
being an advertiser they will be likely
to doubt if he really has a fresh stock
at all. The consequence is apt to be
that A. is off to - New York lor another
stock before B. has half unloaded, and
the public being already supplied he
may have to carry over a part of it.
There are very different ways of doing
business, but any one who understands
advertising would be apt to sny that the
results work in about that way.
TboPbiladelphiaZealycr, in a thought
ful article upon the prevailing epidemic
of crime, says:
‘-The mistaken lenity of modern courts
and juries, and the ill-judged exercise
of the pardoning power, are merciless
to society, while tender to criminals.
The community has aright to protec
tion, both in the nature of things and
the compact between the people and
their agents, the legislative and execu
tive authorities. This compact is vio
lated and "government” becomes a
mockery and a delusion, when the ban
ditti of modern society are favored to
the peril of the peaceful and law-abid
ingeitizens.”
——
Genc-al Duerot, who commanded at
Sedan, and at Paris during the siege
is said to have recently stated that he
considered the Republic a failure; that
the only safery of Franoe was iu the
restoration of a monarchy or an empire;
that site must tight again, and that in
his opinion President Theirs would at
tempt to prolong his term until his death.
