The Georgia Weeklv Telegraph and. -‘ Telegraph and Messenger. AUCON, OCTOBER 14, 1870. in to be Done with the Ku»ie Bond? The question of the disposition of the StM- goad comes up in Atlanta this week. Iti« <1. ttospeeial order in the House to-morrow, «ud e of schemes will be adopted in refer- j litical corruption in Georgia, and we shall be «>ce to it. ! glad when it is removed, if the road can be 1, The first is the scheme of Mr. Blodgett— ; disposed of consistently with the pecuniary in- riods, bnt hare ever existed to a greater or less extent It has always been managed in the in terest of the dominant party for the time be ing, and always will be as a Stale Hoad. Its contracts, salaries,'agents, repairs, and every thing else will be effected and employed with an eye to the ballot-box as well as to tie treas- ery of the Road, and well was it, when the rev enue was as earnestly looked after as the ballot- box. It has ever been a fruitful souroe of po- the Superintendent—who asks for an appropri stion of half a million dollars to put the road in working order. Thedemandforsolargeasum, in addition to the whole accumulated revenues of the road since all income payments into the State Treasury have been stopped, is a fact so dearly illustrating its condition, that we need no farther reports of committees on tho snip jeer. The total oost of this road to the State, ae given by Engineer Garnett (p 402 Cobb’s Digest) was $3,680,1G5.88. The appropriations made toil out of the State Treasury since it has been operating, have amounted to $3,G10,6G2. Exclusive of payments in Confederate money, it has turned over to the State Treasury $2,189,- 550—an amount $1,421,112 less than has been paid ont of the State Treasury to keep it in working order. These figures are shown by Superintendent Blodgett on p. 11 of the pam phlet edition of his letter to the House Finance Committee, Sept. 23,1870. By this showing, then, this great work, which •ost the State nearly four millions of dollars, so far from being a souroe of income, has already sunk tha State a million and a half of dollars in good money, with the final result that it is now in so disordered aind unsatisfactory a condition that half a million more Is asked to put it in repair. It is true, the figures do not include $2,763, 000 in Confederate money, paid into the Treas- ury dm i Dg the war; but let that sum be added at the ourreut rates of discount, and still the State has lost by tbe Western and Atlantic rail road a considerable balance in money—all tbai it will cost to pat the road in as good order as when it was new—and tho interest on the origi- nal investment for a long series of years—say en three and a half millions since 1846—twenty- four years, at 7 per cent., $5,880,000. That is a bad investment to sink more capital in. 1 A proposition to hast the road at $23,000 per month, or $300,000 a year. This bid leaves the State behind in interest account on money aotually invested—to say nothing of interest lest, and, if a satisfactory lease could be made aad enforced faithfally in all its terms and con ditions, it would be a business operation hardly Creditable to the State. Bat loosing is a noto riously bad and unsatisfactory disposition of nearly every description of property. Leased property is skinned property. .It is always, as a matter of coarse, run for the benefit of the lessees and not for that of the owners—unless the two cau be made identical in all cases— which is impossible. A great work of this character must be man aged with an oye to building up and developing a permanent trade, and not for what can be made out of it by hook and crook for a series of years. It is often the true interest of such a-work to concede immediate profits which might’.o secured, with a view to ultimate re sults, and it may well be donbted whether a system of leases would not be injurious, not only to the permanent value of the road as a property, but also to the groat ideas and func tions in which the work was conceived as a 8tate enierpriso. We should bo inclined to anticipate, as the probable results of the lease—a good deal of •ontention and difficulty in enforcing its terms —a general popular dissatisfaction with the management of the property, and, finally, ils reclamation, by the State, in a very abort time in a worse oondition than it now presents. We say nothing of the terms of the particular bill before the House, to which there are serious abjections in event that it should be determin ed to lease the property at all. 8. The third proposition contemplates the sale of the Boad for five and a quarter millions toe private company and to put it under so oh restrictions as govern similar, corporations in the State;, as to the transportation of freightand passengers. The company propose to pay year ly in erest in advance on the purchase mony, say $307,500 and $100,000 on the principal sum, and to secure tbe State amply as to tbe remainder. Tbe corporators named iu tho bill are A. Anstell, T. P. Saffold, B. 3. Wilson, M. H. Alberger, D. Smith, W. EL Stallings, John I. B air, John Brisbin, A. F. ifurt, B. G. Clark, O. A. Lochrane, Joseph H. Scranton, J. C. Mc- Burmy, Louis Tomlin aud others associated with them. A majority of the stockholders re^ j ride io Georgia, and tbe direction of theroad- by the termi of tbe bill will be hero. The northern corporaiors'are Known to be generally men of largo capital, and they design perfect ing its connection in such a manner as will' largely increase its business and value. 5 4 Such are the three alternatives before the taw-msking-power and the public this week. Of ttio throe, we should choose tbe last. Better would it be if a sale could be made to Georgians •xclusively, but we presume Georgians could wot b<t found with the capital to place this road at once iu tho condition in which it must be placed to do the winter’s business. To borrow half a million mors and sink it where, like all previous investments, it will never be heard from again, seems to be inadmissible, and to lease, is only to pave the way for future trouble, dissaiisf action and loss. Shut np to these three alternatives, we think we should adopt the third one and sell. .... ; £ '' ‘ In respect to the prit', by reference to Cobb’s Digest, page 143, tha reader will see that sec tions 3-7 of an act to authorize further progress en tbe State Road, efo., approved Dec. 22,1843, offer the road for one million of dollara down, in event of finding a purchaser, and the Govern or was directed to take the necessary steps to affect the sale for one million and such addition al sums as might be expended from tbe passage of the act until tbe sale should be effected. This act stood on the statute book nnrepealed for •even years, until 18.50. • - ; We have seen that the actnal oost up to 30th December, 1847, was $3,GS0,IC5 88, and an es timate of the oost of grading and construction of this road with the value of its present equip ment in onr hands, foots up $4,850,120. It is questionable, therefore, whether a better bid •an be obtained. : We ought to consider, too, that somo part of the through business which this road has here tofore enjoyed is already lost, find more is cer tain to be lost, by competing roads, and a good deal of tho remainder must be retained by the incibt sound and economical management, low profits and efficient service. Every month that the road i i suffered to run to wreck in its pres ent fashion permanently impairs its trade and valuo. luc itddresR of Superintendeatllnlbcrt, whtch [tubli.bei Ust fall, showed the dan gerous yOf the competition which this rL’sd mnsTtAcuuntor ill a t directions, and tho »«*•*' • r:jr%|f i' proceeding to main- terests of the State and the rights of the peo* pie. The great objection to and dread of the sale by the people has been a fear that the proceeds would be squandered. But the bill proposed provides that the purchasers shall give their bonds, secured by a lien on the road, and a far ther obligation of one million dollars, approved i-ecurity, which bonds they have the privilege of taking np at any time by a payment of tho bonds of the State nowontstanding—of ooorse first those for which tbe State road is bound. The parties oonld not safely pay the cash, as they are buying a property encumbered with a debt binding it amounting, it is supposed, to near $4,000,000. After ascertaining the exact amount of this lien on tho road the balance is the amount to be divided into fifteen payments, part-of which is each year to be paid in advance. By the deeds oonveying the property after thirty days failure to meet any of their engagements for in terest, or otherwise, there oonld be a foreclosure and a complete forfeiture of all these, corpora tors might have paid to the State or in repairs and improvement of the property. Judge Niibet’s Retirement. A card elsewhere announces the dissolution of the law firm of Nisbets k Jackson by the withdrawal of Hon, Eugenios A. Hisbet., After au uninterrupted connection with the legal profession of forty-seven years—eight of whioh were spent on the Supreme Bench of Georgia—Judge Kisbet retires front it full Of years and honors, and in the midst of a large and lucrative practice. He leaves it in the full possession of all those faculties that have given him such wide reputation as lawyer and Judge, and with his mental vigor as active and power ful at ever. His health, however, has been del- ioate for years, and although as good now as usual, can be much better cared for in the quiet and peace of private life than the aotive prao tice of hia profession. The kindest and most respectful regards, not only of the profession, but of his fellowciti- zens, generally, go with him, and their heart felt invocation is that he may be spared to them many honored years yet. A Card. Many complaints have been made to ns by our patrons and friends of the worthlessness of Fertilizers bought and used by them and askir-g if some compromise cannot be made in relation to the payments. Wo have tbe following an swer to make: The drafts accepted by Factors render them legally liable for the amounts, and these factors are compelled to make timely provision for payment. The factors most maintain their credit or be ruined as business men. What consideration these drafts represent, whether guano, or provisions, stock, or whether the guano was pure, or the bacon sound, or tbe mules serviceable, are questions which the fac tor is not permitted to entertain. Ho must pay all alike when they mature. Whalever contest there may be, lies between the purchaser and the vendor—the Faotor is not permitted to go into it He has guaranteed the payment of these drafts and is oompelled to pay them on matu- rify. 2 £ Under these circumstances every principle of mercantile, usage, law and good faith appeals to the planter to stand between his factor and harm, and seek his redress (if he will) in a suit against the manufactnrers and vendors of the fertilizers. It; the farmers fail to meet their liens for aooeptahees, prompt foreclosure will and must’be the result. We do notland cannot believe any honorable Georgian will endanger his faotor and acceptor by an unworthy-attempt to make them the scape goats for the sins of others. It will be equally.unlawful and fruitless. Geor gia credit is good and let us sustain it, Jonathan Collins k Son, Cotton Factors, Macon, Georgia. Thb ‘'Old Tznnxbseeb House."— Messrs.

Of the great number of papers falling due on the first and third of October, not one was protested or went over. Considering the ruinously law price'which cot ton has been add is now bringing, this is very complimentary Indeed. In a short while now they will have pud off their.year’s indebtedness and then left free to eitiier sell or to hold] as their judgments may diotate v Many allego that this has mneh to. do with the low price of the staple, bnt be that as it may, when mortgages are paid off they can then do as they liko about selling or bolding. The meeting of these papers affords vital, re lief to the mercantile Interests of our city, and is another convincing proof of the scrupulous honor of. the planters of Georgia. The following Is the most significant pot of the speech for making whioh Dr. Johann J.

Rev. A. Ve- rot, late Bishop of 8avannah, who . had been absent for several months at the Eoumenical Council at Rome, arrived. in the city, yesterday by tha afternoon Charleston and Savannah Railroad train. The Bishop, with his charac teristic modesty, endeavored to steal a inarch upon his old flock, but Captain Dillon aocident- ly detected him in bis attempt, and through his agency a committee, consisting of eight mem* ben of the St Patrick’s Total Abstinence So- Mtr and twenty-one members of the Catholio oongragationa of the city, received him at the Central Railroad depot, and escorted him to tha Bishop’s residence, near the Cathedral of St. John the Baptist. The oommittee was headed by Captain L. J. Guilmartin. who wel comed tbe Bishop to his flock in a short and ap propriate address, to whioh the Bishop replied 4u* few words of kindness and appropriation. After their arrival at the Bishop’s house, Major Euston’s Penmanship.—Prof. Enston’sdisplsy of penmanship, pendrawing and flourishing, in Exhibition Hall at the Fair last week, were the subjeot of universal wonder and admiration. He has bat one or two equals, and no superior in the counlry with tbe pen, and he also has the happy faculty of imparting his knowledge of the quill to his pupils in the Macon Commercial and Business College: \ We never examine bis matchless productions without a feeling- of pride that he is permanently located here, and is the President of a prosperous and still rapid ly! growing institution. No boy,, seeking a business education and a knowledge of the use uos f 1S - of the pen, should go 1 out of Geofgia to find either as long as Enaton remains with us. Mbs.

What! we oak : Have Alsace and Lorraine, than, no inhabitants, or are the dwel lets in these provinces ao many senseless things, of which you can without more ado take posses sion, and which you can pash hither or thither j nst as you will ? Have they, by war, forfeited thoir rights? Have they become slaves, whose fate the conqueror can arbi tartly dtoide ? Even the most zealous, the moat thorough going, ad vocuta of annexation admits that tbe Alsacians and Lorrainers are, body and aotd, French, and wish to remain so. And, even had they as bit terly as possible offended against ns, it would be stid contrary to all human rights that we should by force make them Germane—that wa should against their will incorporate them late Prussia or any other German State. Gentle men, there is an old proverb, whioh, on ae count of its truth, has beooma a universally ad mitted principle of morality: ‘Whet you would not like to be done to yourself, do not to others. ’ How would we—how would our National Liber als—like a victorious Pole, on tbe ground of richt. to d emand back and the provinces ot Poeen and West Prussia T And yefthe very same reasons oonld be validly advanced in fa vor of such a measure ss the advooatea ef the annexation of Alsaoe and Lorraine new bring forward. No, gentleman; it te onr duty to op pose such movements of national self seeking. Let ns hold firmly to the diotates of right—aa iu private, so let it be in pnbllo life. Let us proclaim it as our deep, firm conviction, that every incorporation of foreign territory against tbe will of its inhabitants, is a violation of the rights of a people to decidefor itself, and there fore, as blameable as it is dangerous. Uoblind- ed by the intoxicating success of the moment, let na raise our protest against every violence to the inhabitants of Alsace and Lorraine. He alone who respects tbs freedom of other* is himself worthy of freedom." At the conclusion of this energetic speech, the meeting passed the following resolution: “The members of the popular party, here scmbled, express as their conviction that neith er the declaration of war by Napoleon, nor the German feats of arms, give the oonqueror a right to dispose of the political tiM ot the in habitants of Alsace and Lorraine. On the ground of the right ot;a nation to decide for it self, iu the interests of freedom and peace, we protest against every forcible annexation of French territory.” Extraordinary Elrctro-Bnrcteal Op* . eratiou on Gen. Kilpatrick. It has already been announced that Gen. Kil patrick, our late Minister to Cbiii, waa obliged to resign his position and return home, on ac count of declining health. The disease which nifiicied him was a swelling on the left side of tbe lower part of the neck, which made its first appearance about two years ago. He returned to the United States about ten days ago with his family, and on consulting with some of the most skillful physicians in New York city, wliero he is stopping, they decided that the formation was an erectile tumor, and that Dr. Lincoln should perform ao electric operation, to which Gen. Kilpatrick readily assented. Friday last was the d«y fixed upon for the ex periment. At that time tbe tumor protruded outwardly as large as a hen's eggs. Inwardly it was much larger, crowding the windpipe half an inch to the left, making tbe effort to talk and eat very difficult and painful. The New York Mail says: , „ , [l-j There were present during tbe performance of the operation, Dr. L. F. Sass, Dr. B. P. Lincoln, Dr. Hammond, Dr. Chas. Hockley, surgeon-in-chief of the 3d cavalry, Army of the Potomac ; Gen. David Vickers, of Philadelphia, brother-in-law of Gen. Kilpatrick, and Gen.’ W. H. McCartney, of Boston. General Kilpatrick was placed under the influence of ether. Four large-sized darning needles were then inserted into the tumor, and it required all the strength a strong man possessed to foroe the needles in to it. An unusually powerful electric battery was then applied to the needles, tbe full foroe ot the battery being given. Notwithstanding tbe influenceof the ether, theelectncity bad snen an effect upon tbopatient that t wo powerful men bad as much as they coal d do to keep him upon the b«d. The needles were removed, and in thirty minutes the outward swelling began to go down, and soon disappeared altogether. Of course, the General was left in a terrible weak condition, but to-day, although instructed to keep bis room and bed, is looking exceedingly well. Tbe phyaiemus declare the experiment a complete success, the tumor entirely - removed, and the patient himself again with voice and health a'-, good as e'veri Dr. Lincoln says that tbe amount of electricity thrown into General Kilpatrick’s system by the operation, if concentrated, would transfprm a piece of the hardest kind of coal, the size of. a marble, into a coal of .fire,! j .< [ Washington star. 11 ” tliimorcilTkhiii 1 ^ rttiSfeta. . - B The Washington correspondent of tho Jour nal of Commerce writes as follows from that city. We rr.thor think he 04 mistaken about Akerman at any rale. Amos hss too gwid a thing to give it up voluntarily. We prophesy that Amos will “stick” ss long os the next niuu. ilt js;held by prominent Senators i and politi cians who h ivo been or arc now hue, and who have beenthe principal causes of ail the present disaffection ngaicu t certain Cabinet ministers, that soon after the October elections.Mr. Ci>x, Mr. Akerman, Mr! 'Fiiib,“'and probabIy Hr. Belknap, will have successors in office. The men who have tbe least to say about these things arc the President and tho genlkweii whose positions are involved. The discontents say tboy have it from the President, that after the event referred to, changes will be made to meet party demands, and to secure Cabinet ministers who havo in fluence at home, and know how lo.ii.se it to the benefit of the Republican party. I cannot re linquish the belief that the President never made such a statement or promise. Secretary Cox has no influence to speak of in Ohio, snd yet there are good reasons io show that the President desires him to reouvn in tbe Cabinet. Mr. Akerman will.leave the Cabinet of bis own accord within two months if ho lives so long. He has influence In Georgia. . • l Of Air. Fish, it is well known that he does not take an active part in the politics of New York.- He is tenaaious of disposition, and smooth and voluble of speech when stating a proposition. The President js blunt, keys lit tle, but holds to his own view with a firmness that words do not shako The consequence has been a stubborn ■ disagreement on sII,firs of State. There hive prubuMy never been a President and Secretaiy of State who agreed in everything. But the President likes Mr. l’ii.li.
