section two of the act to determine the ju
risdiction of United States circuit courts,
so as to read as follows:
“Section 2. That any suit of a civil na
ture at law or in equity, arising under the
constitutional laws of the United States,
or tieaties made or which shall be made
under their authority, of which the circuit
courts of the United Stats are given origi
nal jurisdiction by the preceding section,
which may now lie pending or may here
after lie brought in any State court, may
be removed by defendant or defendants to
the circuit courts ot the United States for
the proper district, whenever it was made
to appear from tlie application of such de
fendant or defendants, that bis or their de
fense depends in whole or in part on a
correct construction of some provision of
the constitution or laws of the United
States, or treaty made by their authority,
and any oilier suit at law or in equity, in
which the circuit courts of the United
States arc given jurisdiction by the pre
ceding section, which are now pending, or
may hereafter be brought in any State
court, may be removed to the circuit court
of the United States for the proper dis
trict, by the defendant or defendants
therein! provided such defendant or de
fendants aie non-residents of the State in
which suits are pending.”

ty of the Committee on the Judiciary,
making the minimum amount involved in
a suit live hundred dollars, in order that
United States Circuit Courts may have
original jurisdiction, instead of two thou
sand dollars, as proposed by the bill, was
rejected. The amendment offered by tlie
minority, allowing United States Circuit
Courts to lake original cognizance of suits
of civil nature, arising under patent and
copy right laws between corporations and
citizens of State, in which the corporation
was cai rying on its business, was agreed
to without division. The minority
amendment striking out tlie clause pro
hibiting United States Circuit Courts
from taking original cognizance of any
suit between a corporation and a citizen
of a State, except in cases arising under
patent and copyright laws, and in like ca-'
res in which said courts are authorized to
take original cognizance of suits between
citizens of same State, was rejected—yeas

Day, one of the most popular steamboat-
men in the State is makhg about three
trips a week up the Ocmulgee, Oconee and
Altamaha from this station. He has en
tered into an arrangement with the Macon
and Brunswick railroad, by which the
people living on these rivers enjoy superior
advantages in shipping their productions
and in receiving the large amount of goods
they consume. We are glad to hear that
the country up and down our rivers is in a
prosperous condition. We are told it
would surprise any one not interested to
know the large amount of guano these
people are buying this year. They are
certainly preparing to plant large crops.
We hope the investment may prove a good
one. Of one thing we feel confident; if
eneigy, fair dealing and promptness on
the part of Captain Day and the Macon
and Brunswick road c*n avail anything
our river friends should feel independent.

The Cost of Government.
The “world is governed too much,”
used to be a fundamental Democratic
proposition in a time when the cost of
government was a good deal less than
one-half what it is now. There was a
time within the memory of men not very
old now, when the government of the
United States used to cost a sum total of
twenty-five to twenty-six millions; but if
we turn over the musty political records
of those days, strange to say,we shall find
ten pages of malediction over Federal ex
travagance, to one at the present time.
The last close administration of the
government (that of John Quincy Adams)
was driven from power in utter disgrace
on account of its extravagance in spend
ing twenty-six millions a year—while
now we plume ourselves on an economy
which includes the ordinary expenses of
government within ono hundred and
fifty millions. We have got used to big
expenditures as eels are to being skinned.
But it should be remembered, in exten
uation, that within fifteen years the ag
gregate governmental expenses of the Eu
ropean powers have swelled in nearly the
same proportion. A table prepared by
Consul General Lee, at Frankfort, shows
an increase from 1865 to 1879 from §1,
89^288,000 to $2,768,645,000. Even such
steady-going little power as Switzerland
shows au increase from $3,570,000 to $8,-
092,000, and as for the great powers they
are great in their excesses.
Now, when we consider the object of
government in its last analysis—to protect
the people in the pursuit of life, liberty
and happiness—we may well hold up
both hands in astonishment at the cost of
that simple operation. The powers of
Europe expend upon it yearly $20,585,-
096,000 against S12,503,330,000 in 1805—
enough, one would think, to make the
people all rich and keep them In order,
too. Twenty thousand, five hundred and
eiglity-five millions oi dollars is an incon
ceivable sum of money. But little of it is
spent for the benefit of the people. It is
squandered on foolish quarrels growing
out of dynastic ambition. The fourth
part of it would maintain order, justice
and public tranquillity but for so-called
national rivalry and the pride of powers.
Compared with this European exhibit,
the expenses of the United States are
more reasonable; and we have the pros
pect before us of a rapid reduction. It
will be the fault of the people themselves
if it is not effected. The great obstacle is
the practice of internal improvements by
the general government, which is liable
lead to illimitable expenditure and cor
ruption. There are some (such, for ex
ample, as tlie improvement of the Missis
sippi river) which must be carried on by
the Federal government; but even this
might be well placed on a basis which
should return to the treasury, every cent
expended, with interest, witliin a reason-
ble time.
But a system of local expenditures is
bound to reach beyond all reason, and cre
ate a big debt and keep up taxation. Ev
ery one made is itself authority and pre
cedent for another, until the reins are lost
out of hand entirely. Not one of them
should, in our opinion, be undertaken"
without security for interest on expendi
ture, and an annual sinking fund which
in time would extinguish the debt with
care, in the management of the finances—■
with a steady and prudent policy in the
prosecution of internal improvements—
with a rigid adherence to the policy of
peace, in a short time the people will
cease to feel the public debt. Taxes will
be light, and the whole business of the
country, unburdened by the set-hacks
which harrass European trade, will move
with an elasticity and vigor which will
distance, all competition.
Proposed New Cotton Mills in Colum

The Alignment
The Goldsboro (North Carolina) Mes
senger has made a careful collation of the
opinions of the press of the State relative
to the proposed sale of the Western North
Carolina railroad, Jt says:
We present the opinions and views of
forty-seven State papers—forty-six Demo
cratic and one Republican. It will be
seen that the State press is very much di
vided on the railroad question. A sum
mary shows that of the number eighteen
favor the acceptance of the Best proposi
tion, eight are undecided, and (including
this paper) twenty-one are either opposed
to the sale or deplore the hasty action in
the call of the extra session. Of the pa
pers named thirty-six are published east
of Greensboro, including that city, and of
this number seventeen are for selling the
road; thirteen are opposed to the present
proposition, and six are non-committal.
The Difference.
IBS WEST AND ira OOUTH.
No suoR dismal prospect ever dawned
on a people as threatened the Southern
States in the spring of 1861. Their whole
social structure and condition—all their
civilization aud internal wealth were based
on slavery, and yet it was not doubtful
that if they failed to save it by a move
ment for political independence, its days
were numbered and few. In a desperate
effort to save themselves, they seceded;
and emerged from a desperate defensive
struggle ruined and at the mercy of their
enemies, who could find no language of
opprobium and malediction too severe to
apply to their alleged crime.
To-day the States of the Northwest
openly threaten revolt against the author
ity of the Federal Government, not be
cause it is going to strip them of all they
have, but because it will not disgrace it
self by suffering them to violate plain
treaty stipulations. They want to dig
gold in lands solemnly guaranteed to the
Indians, and in order to do it, they will
array themselves in arms against “the
best government the world ever saw,” and
drive its troops out of the countiy at the
point of the bayonet. If, therefore, the
Southern people were rebels and traitors
for defending themselves from spoliation.
What are these loyalists, who take up
arms against the authority of the govern
ment in order to drive the Indians out of
their own territory and steal their gold ?
This is a proposition which we hope the
Northwest will consider in their debating
societies.
Is there Never to he Perfect Am'
nesty, Peace and Equality for the
South?
No person who has served in any ca
pacity in the military, naval or civil ser
vice of the so-called Confederate States,
or of either of the States in insurrection
during the late rebellion, shall be appoint
ed to any position in the army of the Uni
ted States.
Thus reads section 1218 of the revised
statutes, which gave rise to the recent hot
ly contested fight in the United States
Senate upon the removal of the political
disabilities of a citizen of Baltimore, who
had fought on tlie Confederate side, and
was an applicant for the position of pay
master in the army. Senator Edmunds
denounced the bill; and said if the Senate
relieved this rebel, it might as well repeal
the whole of section 1218. Senator Gar
land forthwith offered an amendment to
that effect. The amendment was agreed
to, and the bill, by a strict party vote, or
dered to a third reading and passed after
a most acrimonious debate,
Mr. Thurman spoke ably and exhaus
tively in favor of tlie repeal, as did other
Senators.
Senator Logan uttered a raging protest
against placingthe men who sought to de
stroy the Union on the same level with
those who imperilled their lives in its de
fense.
The discussion has worked much angry
discussion on the part of the Badical press
of the North and West. Hear what that
malignant sheet, the St. Louis Glole-fiem-
ocrat, has to say on the subject:
Senator Logan was right. If this kind
of talk is apt to fan the embers of discord,
by all means let the embers be fanned.
The South has no right to object to sec
tion 1218, and the North has every right
to insist that it shall remain in the statute
book. Through tlie magnanimity of the?
Republican party, all the men who took
part in the rebellion have been permitted
to reassume all the rights of citizenship in
civil life; only those whj .bore arms
against the Union arc debarred from ap
pointment in the army. Can any honest
man say that the distinction thus made
between loyalty and armed treason is un-.
necessarily severe? -Shall the men who
doffed, the blue to dou the
gray in 1861, now be permitted to re
enter tlie army and to assume command
of the gallant troops who vanquished them
on the field of battle? Shall they be
placed on tlie retired list, with the rank
and pay which they once traitorously re-'
signed in the time of their country’s great
est need? That the bill will pass both
Houses unless the brigadiers become
frightened by the angry dissent of public
opinion in tlie North, cannot be doubted.
Of course it will be vetoed, if passed, but
its supporters hope to elect a President
who will prove more accommodating, next
November. In that event how long would
it take them to pension the crippled Con
federates aud to pay the Southern war
claims?
So, the old bloody shirt ensign is to be
raised again, and the South denounced as
traitors, rebels and murderers. But the
gory rag, which, when flaunted in the
breeze, was wont to excite to frenzy the
gullable masses of the North, has lost, in
great measure, its talismanic power.
The people of the whole country have
mingled too freely together not to esti
mate at its true value this wretched ex
pedient to keep agape and bleeding the
wounds which peace and the annealing
hand of time have cicatrised. But how
contemptible the role of those Who thus
seek to engender discord and kindle
anew the fires of sectional hate? , •

Indian uprising. What can be done to
■avert it? Nothing, we fear. The In
dians have been so often deceived,
wronged and cheated, that they have
an invincible distrust of tbeir white
brethren.
Savages as they are, they have a strong

and when once forcibly removed to any

Some of the districts appropriated to
them are barren tracts almost destitute of

which they are stripped of the money and

The Next State Pair.
As yet we have heard no responso to the
suggestion which lias been made to our
citizens in regard to taking some action
respecting the location at Macon of the
usual annual State Fair for 1880. If such
au exhibition is still an open question, it
does not become tbe people of this section
to oloop upon their rights. They have the
most beautiful and complete exposition
grounds and buildings in the Common
wealth, occupying, too, almost its geo
graphical centre,
Tlie several fairs which have been held
here, without exception, were largely at
tended, and inured greatly to the honor of
the State and the pecuniary advantage of
our city. Why then hesitate to offer the
proper inducements to the sub-committee
of the State Agricultural Society,if it is the
desire of onr citizens to have the fair loca
ted in Macop next fall ? Some definite
action should certainly be "taken on tbe
subject, and that very soon.
If by general consent, however, of the
Society and people, it be decided to have
no fair the present year, in order that the
State and district expositions may receive
the greater encouragement, most cheer
fully do we acquiesce in that arrange
ment. But let the question be settled,and
that without any further delay.
The Cincinnati Southern.
The Chattanooga Times is authorized
by President Clement and other officers
of the Cincinnati Southern Road to say
that if nothing Unforeseen occurs, the reg
ular passenger trains will be put on the
road, beginning Monday, March 8th. The
time table has as yet not been made, but
will be in a few days.
For the first week only one train a day
Will be run each way. The Rockwood
accommodation, which was ordered off,
will be put on at the same time. Mr.
Clement said that by tbe first day of June
they hope to make tlie run from Cincin
nati to Chattanooga—338 miles—in ten
hours afid thirty minutes.
The freight trains ard now running
regularly. A caboose is attached to the
trains and passengers can be accommoda
ted for short distances. The Adams Ex
press Company have a car in the train and
have arranged it so that they are enabled
to deliver their freight from Chattanooga
to Cincinnati in twenty-four hours.
Beet sugar is destined to become an.im-
portant article of production in the North,
The only difficulty in tlie way is the rais
ing of the tubers, which require a very
deep and rich soil. Still, a single factory
in Maine, the past year, manufactured
9,000 tons of beets, which yielded 1,440,-
000 pounds of sugar, equal to eight per
cent, of the weight of beets. This done
in seventy days, and the product was only
suspended for lack of beets. Other facto
ries will be started in New York if the
farmers who own rich alluvial bottom
lands can be induced to go into tbe culti
vation of t^je beet.

THE MACON * AUGUSTA BOAD.
Its Sale la Anguta.
The Macon and Augusta Road, as has
been already announced, was sold in Au
gusta on the 2d instant by Judge TV. M.
Reese, of Washington, trustee of the
road, under the second mortgage bonds.
General E. P. Alexander, president of the
Georgia road, was the purchaser for his
road at the nominal price of $50,000.
There was hut one bid.
The Macon and Augusta, though nomi
nally a separate organization, has really
'been under the management and control
Of the Geoigia road since it has been in
operation. The Macon and Augusta has
no rolling stock of any kind, the entire
property consisting of the; road bed and
track. The bonds of tlie road' amounted
to $770,000, of which $400,000 were first
mortgage bonds, due January 1st, 1887—
$300,000 endorsed^by the Georgia railroad
and $100,000 unendorsed. The : second
mortgage bonds, amounting to $370,000,
and endorsed by the Geoigia railroad, fell
due some time ago, and were all takenup
by that road.. The Geoigia road has also
'paid out in interest on account of the Ma
con and Augusta, $320,000. The paid up
capital stock of the Macon and Augusta
amounted to nearly two millions of dol
lars, and between fifty and sixty thousand
dollars of unpaid subscriptions are in
judgment. The road . is eighty miles in
length, extending fromlhis city toCamak.
It connects at Catnak with the Geoigia
railroad. The sale of the' road and its
franchises was made by Judge ReeseJas
trustee under a deed of trust, exe
cuted July 1st, 1860, by the Macon
and Augusta" Railroad Company, to se
cure certain bonds therein named, and
the endorser and guarantor of the
same (the Geoigia" Railroad and Bank
ing Company being said endorser and
guarantor) being properly called upon by
the Geoigia Railroad and Banking Com
pany, the endorser and guarantor, to take
possession and sell the Macon anil Au
gusta Railroad, and all its property of ev
ery sort, and its franchises, to indemnify
and secure payment for the Georgia Rail
road and Banking Company, as endorser
and guarantor, of the coupons of the Ma
con and Augusta Railroad Company, ta
ken up by the Geoigia Railroad and
Banking Company, androf which re-pay-
ment has been properly demanded of the
Macon and Angnsta Company, and pay
ment refused. )
The hid of fifty thousand dollars, un
der the circamstances, is merely nominal.
The road, we understand, will have to be
sold again when the first mortgage bonds
becomfe due, in January, 1887, in order to
give the Geoigia Railroad a perfect title.
The first mortgage bonds are held by dif
ferent parties throughout the country.
Quite a sum of them are in the hands
of citizens , of Macon; although they are
pretty well distributed front this city to
Camak, and a number of tlie bonds are

•* An Exciting Baflie.
Last evening, at the drug store of Mr.
Theo. W. Ellis, one of the most exciting
raffles that has taken place in the city in
a long while, occurred over the ownership
of the two ponies of Mr. Whit Collier.
The raffling of two horses was rather a nov
el idea in Macon, and the two elegant po
nies which were put up, attracted at once
many persons who wished to take the
chances on them. The number was fixed
at ninety at three dollars each, and little
difficulty was experienced in disposing of
them all.
In fact in such demand were they that
two chances were added to the list, mak
ing ninety-two in all. Shortly after eight
o’clock the raffle began in the presence of
a large crowd. The throwing went on
without any incident worthy of note until
Mr. A. R. Freeman threw forty-two for
Mr. Milo S. Freeman. This began to
make things lively and several parties be
gan to negotiate for tlie chance. The as
pect of affairs was changed, however,
by a throw of forty-three, made for
Mr. Newt. Seymour, of Griffin. Several
parties began at once. to make
large bids for tke throw, and • it wa3 sold
for one hundred and ten dollars. As the
money was being counted out, andminety-
five dollars had been counted, Mr. A. R
Freeman again threw, the dice scoring
forty-five. This was tbe highest throw
and took the prize. It was made for Mr.
C. A. Sindall, secretary of the Southern
Railway and Steamship Association.
The result caused much rejoicing on the
part of the pooling office boys, as the own
ership of the ponies is retained in the of
fice. They were jubilant over it, and were
congratulated on their good fortune on
all sides by their many friends.
Death of Mr. Georue Logan.
Yesterday morning, at about seven
o’clock, Mr. George Logan died at his
residence in Yineville, aged twenty-three
and a half years. The announcement of
his death caused great sadness throughout
the city, among his large circle of friends
and acquaintances. His recent illness has
caused much solicitude among his friends,
and the regret at his death is general and
wide-spread.
He was conscious to the end, and real
ized that his dissolution was approaching,
and met death with calmness and fortitude.
While the malady which had attacked
him was incurable, and his friends had
realized that death was merely a question
of days, the end was not anticipated so
soon, and all were in hopes that his life
might have been prolonged.
The deceased was one of the first young
business men of the city. He has for ten
years been connected with the firm of C.
H. Rogers & Co. and their predecessors,
and in that time lias won for himself the
esteem of his employers and the respect of
all who knew him. His unswerving in
tegrity, natural generous and noble in
stincts, combined with a clear judgment
and thoughtful business acumen, gave
rich promise of a useful and successful ca
reer. , j
He was the son of Mr. George Logan,
at one time Mayor of this city, and a very
prominent citizen. Mr. Logan. leaves a
wife and one child. Our deepest sympa
thies are extended to the family,of the
deceased. The funeral services will take
place from St. Paul’s Church this .morn

IMPORTANT QUESTION.
The most important and absorbing
question of these parts is the recent
change in the ownership and control of
the Macon and Brunswick railroad.
The recent sale by the Governor has
met with the Wannest and most enthusi
astic approval on the part of the good
people of the section traversed by the
road.
The impression most prevalent is that the
extension of the road from Macon to At
lanta as provided for by the statute, will
result in the development of tbe whole
country between the city of Macon and
the seaports, that what this country and its
seaport require is only a fair showing in
bidding for the trade of the West and
Northwest so as to enable them to com-
>ete withdlie city of Savannah and Port
loyal and Charleston, South Carolina.
This, it is contended, can be done by
connecting this section directly with the
great Western marts, so as to enable it to
control the trade with the West unhamp
ered by the interference in favbr of Savan
nah, by the Central road.
CONDITION, ETC.
Perhaps it would be well to tell your
readers something of the condition of the
Macon and Brunswick railroad and the
resources of the country though which it
passes.
The condition of the rolling stock is su
perior, ' foui teen large engines being in
constant and daily use over the line, two
of those being recent additions.
Tlie road bed is in a fine condition,
judging from the smoothness of the run
ning of the coaches, a large section of the
track being laid with fish bar iron!
The road is locally fed with the pro
ducts of four large saw mills, each of
which turns off daily from twenty-five to
thirty thousand feet of lumber.
Tire trade, too, ini turpentine, is very
imj or'.ant, there being at least thirty laige
difctiHe ies along the right of way, the an
nual yield of which amounts jointly to
more than fifteen thousand barrels per
annum, and about four times as much ro
sin.
These three articles alone constitute a
veiy linge per cent, of the freights of the
road. • . ;
The intome derived from the local pas-,
senger travel is also of important consid
eration, while the through travel is most
remunerative, particularly during the
winter months.
There is no doubt that the future of
this important feeder of the world’s com
merce is assured.|
No one knows certainly at what time
tbe work on the extension will be com
menced, but the general impression
is well established that ground will be
broken at no distant day, probably within
tbe next six months.
The interests of the new company de
mand early decision and accomplisment
of this important work, for every week of
trade diverted on the rails of tlie Central
and its new combination will be so many
months of effort to recover it.
The Central is a powerful corporation
with unlimited resources at it command,
and engineered by men of undoubted
nerve and courage, men who will fight
hard before defeat. However, there is no
reason why these two roads should be an
tagonistic.
The owners are popular with tlie people
along the road; and they say if the same
fairness aud impartiality in the matter of
freight charges is continued tlie success of
the company is beyond question.
In my next 1 will endeavor to give a
short description of the old Spanish town
ofFernandina, and some account of its
shipping, timber trade and possible fu
ture. Carolynn.
SMASH-UP ON THE CENTRA! 1
Another. Broken Axle and Some
Damaged Cars.
The post-office placards of “no North
ern and Western mail received,” yester
day morning revealed the fact that some-
thing'out oirthe ordinary ran had oc*'
curred on the Central road. between Ma
con and Atlanta. Inquiry developed the
following condition of affairs, as nearly aa
could be ascertained.
The down freight train of section No., 2, ■
when near Morrow’s station about Id
miles from Atlanta, was brought to &
standstill by the breaking of one of the
axles under the tender of the engine.
Several ears were wrecked and piled pro
miscuously about the track.
Among them were several stock cars ia
which were horses and mules. These
were killed in the smash. The wreck
was piled up on the track, and although
a large force was put to work upon it, the
track was not cleared until 10 o'clock and
the night passenger train did not arrive
until about half past one o’clock. One
report was that the number of horses and
mules killed amounted to between
twenty-five and thirty.
The extreme reticence of the officials of
the road and indisposition and refusal to
speak of the accident, gives indication that
it was a much more serious nature than
they were willing to say, and that the loss
to the company was larger than it was
wished to be known. y 1
Schedules were resumed yesterday, and
the evening train came in on time.
Central stock.
1 Yesterday Central stock recovered its
tone and stood firm and quiet at 101J to
102 bid, but holders asking 103 and 104.
The little fluctuation of Wednesday some
what disturbed the equanimity of some of
the holders of the stock, showing a little
feverish feeling in regard to it at its pres
ent figures. The dealers however*insist *
that it is all right and that the tendency
will still be upward over the present
ruling prices instead of downward. The
Macon brokers havc^ handled immense
quantities of the stock during the fluctua
tions of the past month, and in legitimate
commissions, alone, have realized laige
sums of money. It has, from what was
regarded a very indifferent security, which "
went begging for purchasers a couple of ‘
years since at thirty-eight and forty cents
pn the dollar, now become a favorite with
the public once more. The speculators in
the [stock have made a good thing
from the recent rise, and have by
no means despaired of further profits from
it.
The New Bailroa«l Company.
The members of the new Railroad Com
pany, who left the city on Tuesday morn
ing by a special train, on a tour of inspec
tion along the line of the road, reached
Brunswick about half past four o’clock in
the afternoon. The trip was a pleasant
and satisfactory one. Pauses were made,
at the various points of the road.
