Conse quently he gets a more suitable kind. Then begins his troubles. lie finds it difficult to get any coal at all; next the patronage of the State road is taken fiom him. “If my coal don’t suit you,” 8a}’8 Brown, “your iron don’t suit me.” And thus a deadly blow is struck at an institution that gives support to probably not less than two thousand persons. therein, which was overruled, and the plain tiffs excepted. By the Gth section of the charter of the Georgia and Alabama Railroad Company, it is provided that in all cases in which any difficulty may arise between indi viduals and the company as to the right of way, or damages to the land on which said road may be located, either party may apply to the sheriff of the county in which the land is located, who atoll .summon a jury of five freeholders, who shall enter upon the land, and, after taking the oath prescribed, award in writing the damages, if any, to be paid by the company, and upon the payment .. , , , . ,I of the damages so assessed, the fee simple to Only when be sees nun staring him loHj^kiid “gj&j veBt in the ’ compftny .

Among others, we note the estab lishment of a “Judicial Council” to settle, without appeal, all disturbing questions which may hereafter arise in the body, of which Dr. J. P. Logan, of this city, has been appointed a member to serve three years. A section upon “State Sanitary Mcdibine and Public Hygeine” has also been established, of which Dr. W. F. Westmoreland has been appointed a member. Atlanta, and with them over six per cent, of her population, or selling it at a sacrifice to somebody—perhaps to this same Joseph E. Brown himself, so that the President of the Western and Atlantic Railroad might find another profitable source of income ! We cannot recall to mind any parallel to this melancholy exhibition of avarice and cor rupt use of power. The rascalities of James THE FENCE RIDER PREPA K r MOCST. that he was attorney and agent of the com pany at the time the assessment of damages to plaintiff's land was made, and was present attending to the same; that the papers were returned by him to the Secretary and Treasu rer of the company, and have been lost or destroyed; produced copies of the papers which he stated were about the same as those in the defendant’s plea, and gave them to Sheriff Wattera to serve, doubtless meaning the original papers. The alleged copy of the Fisk . 3,, and Jay GonM were at least con- original papers wbichtb. -tn^prodneed. fined to plundering the Erie Railroad and its stockholders. At the same time it must be said that they lowered the rates of freight and did everything in their power to enhance the prosperity of New York. Not so with the President ot the Western and Atlantic Rail road. With shocking unscrupulousness he clutches at the throat of Atlanta’s industries, unless tribute is paid to him. We must buy his partners’ coal or freeze; we must buy his coal or have our workshops shut up. This is jury, so far as the record shows. The witness then testified that tie offered the plaintiff a certificate of stock in the Selma, Rome and Dalton Railroad, which he declined to take, what was the amount of it does not appear. No offer was ever made to the plaintiff of stock in the Georgia and Alabama Railroad Compa ny, nor was there at any time any certificate of stock issued by that company. The witness also stated that the plaintiff was present when the assessment was made. The assessment That bold, fearless and independent news paper, the Daily Fence Rider of this city, thus refers to the State road scandal in its issue of yesterday: Thk Stats Boad.—It hu been known for some time that there has been some disagreement between tbe lessees of tbe State road, sad also some business misunderstanding between two leading officials of tbe road. As soon as tbe reliable facts can be obtaiued we shall give them. Until then we pr. fer not to men tion tbe vague snd conflicting rumors which may do serious injustice to the parties. And the above in an obscure part of the local column! Mark how cautiously “honest logo" speaks. “As soon as the reliable facts are obtained, we shall give them.” We al ways thought there could not be anything more reliable than facts, but the Fence Rider evidently thinks differentlj’. The idea of its talking about “vague and conflicting rumors” is simply ridiculous. The Herald published nnimpeacl which the Fence Riderj^j^e obtained bad it wanted^ them. However, tbe Rider did not wish to publish TEeni; and in regard to giving any facts ;it all we offer the following wagers: Ftrsl—We offer to wager a counterfeit nickel against twice the amount of journalistic abil ity in the Fence Rider office that all the “relia ble” facts it publishes will come from Joseph E. Browu. Second—We offer to wager a brass button against twice the amount of moral courage to be found in the Fence Rider office that ii the “ reliable” facts are damaging to Jo.-.epb E. Brown, it will not venture to assail him. Third— We offer to wager a mutilated ten- cent currency stamp Against the balance now claimed on the till for Public Printing that the Fence Rider will straddle its beloved fence aad wait to see which man wins. Fomih—We offer to wager all that the Herald is worth that if Joseph E. B»**wnis turned out of the State Road, the Fence Rider will proceed to metaphorically kick him, and that if General McRae is turned out it will vigorously assail that gentleman. Fifth—We offer to wager anything against anything else that tbe Daily Fence Rider will be found hurrahing for which ever side wins. the state road m anual. PRESIDENT J .I.OWN’s REMOVAL A NIlfF.: was made in accordance with the provisions of the charter, and all the notices required to , — . ™ [be served were either served or waived by the character of tbe man who has absolute ^ pa rtie3. This latter part ot the witnesses^ control of a road which is at present the very ; statement was objected to and the objection life of Atlanta’s prosperity, and upon which overruled, and that is assigned as error. Ithe prosperity of the entire State to a great extent depends. It is becoming more and more apparent that Atlanta must either finally become a sort Watters, a witness for defendant, stated he was Sheriff, or Deputy Sheriff, at the time of the assessment; served copies of the papers handed him by Colonel Printup, on the plain tiff, but does not remember doing any specific act or acts, nor what papers were served, blit remembers that he did what was required of him in his official capacity; plaintiff was pres ent at tho time of the assessment; made no objection. After the jury had agreed on a verdict plaintiff asked him what it was; told him it was $500 00. He then said he was to take it in stock of tbe company. There are other witnesses who testified that the plaintiff was present when the assessment was made, and that he was to take the assess- of tail tied to Joseph E. Brown’s speculative kite, or Atlanta must drive Joseph E. Brown from tbe Presidency of the Western and At lantic laiJroad. For if lie can strangle one industry to-day, he can strangle another to morrow’. If he can withdraw the patronage of tbe road from Mr. Scofield’s mills, be can withdraw the workshops of tbe road also. If be can set monopoly in coal, be can set up one in dry goods and in Western produce, and in fine can compel every merchant ^ company unde f the proviaiona of their Atlanta to pay him tribute, io a m:tnj^*^T cbarter ? j n my judgment it was not Tbe shall vest in the defendant, :is provided by its ! charte.

In the end. it will he the best for Atlanta that all the detail* of the Western and At lantic Railroad management are comii light. Enough is known already to satisfy the public that President Joseph E. Brown is abusing the position he occupies. We say nothing of the shameful developments matter of the intercepted letter written by General McRae, because that is personal be tween the Superintendent and the President. Men with old fashioned notions of honor, would never have read it; but probably Presi dent Brown’s code of ethics ennobles espionage and eavesdropping into virtues. It ia, however, consolatory to know that for once more, the olu adage that “listeners nev< hear any good of themselves,” has been proved correct ; and President Brown will per haps be more careful in tho future how he reads and uses the correspondence of another not intended for his eyes. Bat while the scandalous interception of General McRae’s letter, aud equally scanda lous use put to it, are matters which we must pass over for the present, the alleged charac ter of the contents of the letter must be a terrible arraignment of President Brown. General McRae came to Atlanta without prej udices or partialities. He, perhaps, had not boen long connected with the road, before he discovered that this splendid property was managed in the personal interest of one man. lie probably saw enough to satisfy him that the grossest abuse of power existed, and that the individual prosperity of Joseph E. Brown, citizen, was all that Joseph E. Brown, President, sought. The public at large are nothing; the city of Atlanta is tho merest cipher; Georgia, in fine, may perish, so that Joseph E. Brown fills his coffers and enriches himself. Not satisfied with a large salary as President nc must enter into speculation* which depend for success upon the fair or unfair management of the road. He forms copartnership with coal dealers in this city, and then makes almost a monopoly of the coal trade, by flagrantly un just discriminations against rival dealers. It bocomcs suspiciously noticeable that certain firms enjoy a monopoly of shipping coal, on the cars of tbe Western and Atlantic Railroad to Griffin, Macon snd other points, and tin so companies are the very same in which he is said to be pecuniarily interested. Again, President Brown of the Western and Atlantic Railroad, bestows his iiatronnge, for printing and stationary exclusively upon Joseph E. Brown, Job Printer, disguised un der the name of an employed foreman, and tbo comical spectacle is witnessed of his mak ing oat and auditiug bills for printing against himself. All this is bad enough; nay, it is simply shameful, but it does not produce enough money. Joseph E. Brown, President, pur chases coal mines and then endeavors to co erce manufacturers into using his coal. Who can read the report of our interview with Mr. Scofield without feeling the utmost indig nation. Here is a gentleman who has by hard labor built up a large and important manufac turing interest m our midst. His is the only mill in Georgia which manufactures railroad iron, and it is admitted by everybody that Mr* Scofield Eiaki?s as good railroad iron as any manufacturer in tbe world, and better than any in Ibe United SUtes.

WARNER, C. J. This case came before tbe Court anil waa decided on an agreed statement of facts. On tbe 11th day of April. 187H, at Rome,Georgia, T. .1. Cox and E. O. Cox, bis wife, executed aud delivered the following instrument: “On or before tbe 1st day of November next we or either of ns promise to y»ay to the order of Griffith, Clayton <fc Co., at their office in Rome, Georgia, $502.50 for five tons of solu ble gnano, and one ton of Dixon's compound, with interest from date, and we promise and agree to deliver to them, for storage and sale, our cotton crop made on onr plantation in Alabama this year, as soon ns it is made ready for market. Value received.” It was ad mitted that the cotton was made on the defendant’s plantation in Alabama, and shipped by them on steamboat, consigned to Griffith, Clayton A. Co., on tbe 4th of January, 1871, that the cotton arrived iu Rome tbe day after it was shipped, and, on its arrival there, was levied on by an attachment sued out by the plaintiff as 'the property of Cox. Tbe plaintiffs demand was admitted to be correct, and was founded on the following instrument: Home, Georgia, Angnst, 25th, 1869. Re ceived of J. M. Elliott A Co., $300 advanced on my present crop of cotton which I promise to ship to them for sale, on my default, rate of interest 1 \ per cen:. per month. [Signed] T. J. Cox. The cotton was claimed by Griffith, Clayton & Co., and the question was whether it was subject to the plaintiff’s attachment, or whether tbe claimants, as factors in posses sion, bad a lien on the cotton for their ad vances made to Cox under the before recited instrument. Tbe Conrt decided that they were in possession of the cotton, and were entitled to claim their Hen thereon for their advances made to Cox and wife as specified in the contract Whereupon the plaintiffs excepted. The questions made iu this case were substantially decided iu Wade & Co. vs. Hamilton et al., 3bth Ga. Rep., 450. It is true Iliac the wolds in the agreement in that case were, that tbo factors were to “reim burse” themselves out ot thejpvoceeds of the cotton promised to be lorwarded to them by Hamilton, which words are not in the writ ten contract in this case, but in our judgment, taking into consideration the relative position of the parties at the time tbe contract was made, as well as the character of the advances made by the factors, that it was intended by them that the cotton should be delivered to Griffith, Clayton & Co., as the factors of Cox and wife for storage and sale, in order that they might reimburse themselves out of the proceeds of the sale thereof for the ad- inces which they had made to them, and such we think is a fair interpretation of the contract. The ease of Wade & Co. I vs. Ham- ilton decides that the delivery of tlie cotton to the carrier consigned to Griffith, Clayton & Co., was a delivery to them, and therefore they were io possession of the cotton as fac tors of Cox. The plaintiff’s claim was for ad vances made on the crop of 1869, and not on the crop of 1870. It is advisable iu all cases when factors make advances to planters on the faith of their crops being sent to them for storage and sale lo reimbume themselves out of tbe proceeds thereof, that tbe contract shonld be definite and explicit. We confino our judgment in this case in the interpreta tion of this contract to the relation of factor nnd planter, for advances made on the faith of the crop of the latter. Let the jndgment of the Court below be af firmed. Underwood A Rowell, for plaintiff in er ror. Alexander A Wright, for defendants. Hnmnel Mobloy vs. A. D. J’.reed, lessee. Eject ment, from Floyd. WARNER, C. J. This was action of ejectment brought by the plaintiff against the defendant to recover possession of a certain strip of land on which the defendant has located ita railroad. On the trial tbe plaintiff proved title in himself to tbe premises in dispute and possession by tbe Jetandant. Tbe defendant pleaded that the land had been condemned for the use of the company under the provisions of iU char ter, and set forth in his plea a copy of the proceedings allegod lo have been had for that that if the sworn copy paper produced in court by the witness showed on the face there of, that the provisious of tbe charter had been complied with in assessing tho damages for taking tbe plaintiffs land by tbe company and the damages so assessed have been shown to have been paid, it would have defeated the plaintiffs right to recover. The sworn copy of the original proceedings introduced by the witness iu court, was better. evi dence than bis oral declarations. Besides, bis oral declarations that the asseasment of the damages was made in accordance with the provisions of the charter, was a conclusion of the law, tbe witness should have stated the facts that transpired when tho assessment of damages was made, so that the Court and jury could have decided whether it was made in accordance with the provisions of the char ter. The condemnation of the plaintiffs land for the use of the compnny. under its charter, depended on the facts connected with the pro ceedings had for the purpose, and not on the opinion of the witness. It was the province of the Court nnd jury, to decide from the tacts proved, whether the plaintiffs land had been lawfully condemned for the use of the company under the provisions of its charter, and not the province of the witness tu decide that question, and in my jndgment, it was error iu allowing him to do so over the plaintiff’s objection. The plea of the defendant was not evidence on the trial, besides it does not appear on the face of the paper set forth in the plea, that the jurors summoned by the sheriff to assess the dam ages, were freeholders, or that they took the oath prescribed before any officer authorized to administer it, nor did the evidence on the trial prove either of these facts. If the origi nal papers containing tbe proceedings under which the defendant claims that the plaintiffs land w*as condemned lor use of the company, had been before the Court at the triul, all tho requirements of the charter must have ap peared on the lace thereof to have been complied with in order to divest the plaintiff of his title to his land, aud the loss of the papers does not dispense with the proof ot the necessary facts to accom plish that result by the best evidence in the power of the defendant to produce. It appears from the evidence in the re cord, that the plaintiff wa3 an origi nal subscriber of $500 to the stock in the Georgia and Alabama Railroad Company, and had paid two installments thereon. The jury assessed the plaintiffs damages for the right of way through his land according to the evidence of $500, to be paid in the stock of the company. Whether the plaintiff’ agreed that the jury might return their ver dict that he should be paid for his land iu stock, or whether he agreed that he would take the amount of the verdict in stock, is not so clear, but no Htock in that company has ever been pnid, or offered to be paid him, iu discharge of that verdict. There is no evidence in the record that the plaintiff has ever been paid ODe dollar for bis land, cither in the stock of the Georgia and Alabama Railroad Company, or nnytning else. Tbe defendant offered him a certificate of stock in the Selma, Rome and Dalton Railroad Compauy which he declined to receive, and there is no pretense that the plaintiff ever agreed to receive the stock of that company in payment for his land. The court charged the jury among other things, to tho effect that if the plaintiff was a stockholder in the Georgia und Alabama Railroad Compauy be would be chargnble with notice of tbo con solidation of that company with the com pany of defendant, aud his consent thereto might be presumed, nnd if he acquiesced in the building of the road on his land by the defendant, he cannot now, by bis action of ejectment, recover the land and turn out the defendant, provided tho new, as well ns the old compauy had always held themselves ready to deliver to him a regular certificate of stock, to which he was or is entitled on account of the assessment made ns be fore stated.

Mitchell etal vs. Mayor and Council of Home. Case, from Floyd. TRIPPE, J. 1. Tho principle that the owner of a build ing, erected on the line of his lot, may, by lapse of time, acquire a prescriptive right to the lateral support of the adjacent soil, does not exist in this State, especially against ft public or municipal corporation. 2. If the work of grading a street, such as digging below tlio foundation of a wall, or under a wall, and underpinning tbo same, be done by the consent or direction of one'of the joint owners of such wall, neither of the owners can recover damages from the city council by whose laborers the work was done, on account of the falling of the wail being caused by such work. 3. Where it was a question at issue whether such consent or direction was thns given, was error iu the Court to charge the jury as follows: “What they (the council) do, so far out of tbe line of their own business as to be evidently done iu the execution of somebody else’s job, if such owner was present aud knew what was going on and made no objec tion, will be pronounced to be done by con sent or direction of such property owner, it nothing appears to the contrary. But this presumption may be rebutted by any sufficient facts or circumstances, such as that the owner of the property protested against it,” etc. The jury had the exclusive right in this cose to determine what presumption arose from the facts proved by the evidence. Judgment reversed. Underwood it Rowell, D. R. Mitchell, for plaintiffs in error: Hamilton Yancy for defendant. II. B. Hill ct al., vs. D. S. Printup. Equity, from Floyd. TRIPPE, J.
