Of course, this produced a howl from the holders of the bogus bonds, and others iu Georgia and clsehwhere whom they could en list in their cause by heavy fees, or a division of the spoils of their bonds could be made genuine by act of the Legislature. The cry was raised that the State would be ruined, that her credit was gone, and she would never again be able to sell a bond or borrow a dol lar at home or .abroad. The Legislature of January, 1872, knowing that the distress of the country, not yet re man advertises that he has for sale 10,00< Georgia Eights at SK> cents. I requested a friend to telegraph to him that they would be taken, and a check sent for the amount. The answer came that the man who had them for sale was out of the city, but would be seen when he came in. These .acts carry their own commentary.
