Tiie Cincinnati Exccbsion.—The
Charleston Neics and Courier says a ma
jority of the delegation of fifteen appoint
ed by the chamber of Commerce, and rep
resenting the varied business interests of
our community, commercial, agricultural
and manufacturing, will find it inconven
ient to leave their business engagement at
this time ; and it is therefore doubtful
whether any portion of them will go.
This is to be regretted, as some of our
most prominent and intelligent citizens
were upon that delegation, and the occa
sion was a favorable one to bring the ad
vantages of Charleston in view as the
true outlet for Western products.
A Shower op Worms.—A few morn
ings ago the ground in many parts of
Charlotte, North Carolina, was covered
Wth worms orawling about, The phe
nomenon attracted a great deal of atten
tion, some suggesting that they had fallen
with the rain. The Observer thinks that
it was a repetition of the occurrence in
Baltimore lately, but that in both cases
the worms come out of the ground, and
not out of the clouds. Towards evening
they had nearly all disappeared, some of
them returning to their natural abode,
while a large number perished on the top
of the surface and dried up, as fishing
worms will do when exposed to dry at
mosphere.
A Phenomenon.—'The report comes
from the mountains, says the Charlotte
Observer, that “MudCut” has again ari
sen in its might to prevent the progress of
trains on the Western North Carolina
Railroad; it is a fact known to those fa
miliar with the peculiarities of this curi
ous place that the mud does actually rise
from the pressure of the superincumbent
mountain. The passenger train which
started down day before yesterday morn
ing swamped, and the passengers had to
be transferred to the engine on which
they were carried to Henry’s where ad
ditional cars were provided.
—The conspiracy to defraud the United
States Government of the legacy of a
million dollars left to it by the Hoboken
miser, Lewis, by a pretended marriage
and the production of a Mrs. Lewis, has
resulted finally in the conviction of all
the conspirators, who will probably have
a Chance to reflect npon their ingenuity in
the penitentiary. The conspiracy was
first detected by .discovering the name of
the engraver upon the plate of the mar-
riage certificate, and finding out from him
that the plate had been executed several
years later than the date of the alleged
marriage. The conspirators sought to
nullify this by producing three witnesses
whose certificates, engraved from the same
plate, showed marriages cotemporary with
that of the pretended Mis. Lewis. But
one of these witnesses, dying of consump
tion, sent for the Government’s counsel,
and revealed the truth, and thus armed it
was easy to break down the case of the
conspirators.

Lost Week’s Cotton Figures.
The New York Chronicle of Saturday
reports the cotton receipts of the seven
days ending Friday night, at 64,368 bales,
against 78,490 for the corresponding week
of last year—showing a decrease for the
week of 14,122 bales. Total receipts of
the cotton year to that date, 4,344,639
bales, against 3,998,320 to same date last
year—showing a net increase of 346,319.
The interior port business of the
week to Friday night footed up as
follows: Receipts 25,010, against 41,-
566 the corresponding week of last year.
Shipments 38^93, against 47,766 last year.
Stocks 289,996, against 156,618 last
year.
The Chroniclers visible supply table
showed on Friday night last 2,616,520
bales of cotton In sight, against 2,559,643
last year at same date, 2,814,116 in 1878
at same date, and 3*108,542 in 1877 at
same date. These figures show an in
crease on the visible supply of 1879
amounting to 59,877 bales, and a decrease
on the supply of 1878 of 197,596 hales,
and a decrease on the supply of 1877, of
492,022 bales. .Cotton was worth in Liv
erpool last Friday 7| for middling upland.
Last year at the same date the quotation
was 5|; in 1878 it was worth 6 1-16, and
1877 at same date, 6 5-16.
The Chronicle's weather reports for the
week ending last Friday ■from the cotton
region report satisfactory rains all over
'Texas. In Galveston, 2.07; inlnjlianola,
0.55; in Corsicana, 2.62; in Dallas, 2.53; in
Brenham, rains for- five days. ’Com
planting was making satisfactory pro
gress.
In Louisiana, at New Orleans, there
was a rainfall of 3.39 during the week,
and at Shreveport 2.32. At Vicksburg the
complaint is too much rain. At Colum
bus, Mississippi, there was 1.85. At Lit
tle Rock, Arkansas, in five days 2.59 fell.
At Nashville, 1.54. No telegram from
Memphis. At Mobile, the raiuiall of the

At'Selma four days of rain.. At Madison,
Florida, rain on two days. At Macon,
three days of rain. At Columbus four
days, and 3.29 during the week. Sa
vannah only 0.87. At Augusta heavy and
general rains, and a fall of 8.16 inches,
It will be seen that the week was wet al
most universally.
* The Chronicle appends the following
to Its table of receipts from plantations:
The above statement shows—
1. That the totalreceipts from the plan
tations since September 1st, in 1879-80,
were 4,627,334 bales; In 1878-79 were 4,-
152,086 bales; in 1877-78 were 3,905,419
bales.
2. That although the receipts at the
out ports the past week were G4,368 bales,
the actual movement from plantations
was only 51,035 bales, the balance being
drawn from stocks at the interior ports.
Last year the receipts from the planta
tions for the same week were 72,289
bales,, and for 1878 they wore 09,435

Moral Incendiarism.
Ex-Governor Seymour.
The World of Saturday learns from
ex-Govemor Seymour, through afriend in
Ut ca, whom that paper tad directed to
call upon him, that the ex-Govemor has
no recollection that he has ever stated to
any person that he would, in any event
.become a Presidential candidate. He has
never in any way expressed or entertained
the idea of allowing his name to he pre
sented to the ‘ people as a candidate for
the Presidency again, nor will he allow it

The Salvation Abmt.—New York
was entered last Friday by an advance de
tachment of the so-called “Salvation Ar
my” from Britain, which consisted of
mate, commander and seven privates, con
sisting of women—all in uniform. The
entire Salvation Army has considerable
strength in Great Britain. It has an an
nual income of nearly $100,000, and its
organization includes 120 ’corps, 180 offi
cers and 3,256 speakers. ’It holds 50,000
meetings in the course of a year, in 143
theatres and music halls, besides about
40,000 open-air meetings. One estimate of
the aggregate of the audiences places it at
2,000,000 persons.
There will be doubt among sober,
Christian people, whether such sensational
performances are likely to work perma
nent benefit to the cause of religion. The
detachmont made early application to th
city authorities for the use of the streets
to preach and hold religious services
in, but it. was anticipated that their re
quest would Be refused.’

As to Rains.—Since Thursday last a
good deal of rain has fallen in and around
Macon, which we suppose to be very gen
eral in Georgia, but a friend said yester
day that, up to a very late date, they had
none in Thomasville. Here, however,
though there has been no great excess, it
is undeniably wet. The river is high and
swamps overflown. West of Georgia, as
will be seen elsewhere, the Tains of the
last two weeks have been excessive. Mo
bile reported for the week ending last Fri
day night about five inches, Montgomery
four. Mississippi and Louisiana are very
wet. Arkansas has been saturated for a
fortnight. The Mississippi river is high,
and the levees are beginning to give way
at some points.
Man and the Moon.
It is predicted that on the evening of
the 17th of the present month a phenome
non will occur among the heavenly bodies
of a most beautiful and interesting char
acter; that is an occuialiOR of the planet
Mars by the moon. At about fifteen min
utes before 6 o’clock Mars, will disappear
behind the dark side of the moon, and re
main hidden till a few seconds after 8,
when he will reappear on the western
edge. At the moment of his emerging the
contrast in colors between his red light
and the pale hue of the moon will no
doubt be very beautiful. This spectacle
can be seen with the naked eye, hut a
good telescope will increase its brilliancy.
The occulation of Mars by the moon is
something to bo remembered for a life
time. The last occurrence of a similar
phenomenon was the occulation of Saturn
yy the moon in 1876.
s important’ topic' reviving in
NEW FORCE.
The arrest of Kearney in San Francisco,
charged with misdemeanor in violation of
the city ordinance against .the use of
profane, indecent, abusive and incendiary
language, has given rise to a lively debate
in tiie newspapers about tbe propriety
and policy of the act—some pronouncing
it unwise and others sustaining it. The
subject has a wide and vastly important
practical hearing, which does not seem to
be appreciated, and, in fact, is not even
alluded to in this discussion.
Moral incendiarism—what is.it? Ah
artful, tonguey ■ and unscrupulous man
puts himself In a community much excited
on questions of class or trade, or political
or school, or any other interests, and, es
pousing one side earnestly, or, with simu
lated earnestness, sets himself to work by
violent and abusive harangues—by la
bored misrepresentation—by devilish
suggestions and by coarse and Unstinted
malediction, to fan the difference into an
actual collision, which may lead to a
bloody catastrophe, or, as is actually the
case now, in San Francisco, produce such
a feeling of public insecurity and appre
hension as to arrest the progress of im
provement, and almost totally obstruct
the course of private business.
Is he not justly responsible in the one
case for the violence that ensues, aud in
the other case, for the personal loss and
anxiety? Must his ignorant tools, in
flamed to madness by his vituperation
alone he punished? No! he represents
the hand and the fire applied to the gun
powder and in a moral sense he may also
he charged with being, in part at least, the
gunpowder and the engineer who lays
the mine. He is, in fact, the life and
soul of the explosion, and although he
may craftily avoid legal liabilities (under
the laws as they stand) he is in fact the
responsible author of the mischief.
In the case of Kearney he was in viola
tion of the city ordinances, hut he had
steadily defied them with impunity for
two years or more. It was a very tardy
prudence and justice which brought him
to account at last, and it is a very clear
suggestion ofthe times and the situation in
the North and West, that the laws on this
subject must be amended and improved.
This is a land offree speech! Granted;
but a man must he held to a safe use of his
tongue as well as his hand in relation to
the rights of his neighbor and the general
interest of society. The moral incendiary
is often a more destructive foe to both than
any mere material incendiary can he. In
the case of the destructive riots in Pitts
burg, which destroyed four or five millions
of property and disturbed the peace ofthe
country, no doubt. that community could
now. by cummen consent, point to one or
• two, three or four mischievous moral en
gineers of that great scheme of destructive
violence, who are morally responsible for
the mischief. Will any one plead the con
stitutional guaranty of liberty of speech as
sound reason why they should not be held
to a proper responsibility?
No! it won’t do at all. Those very
guaranties demand trumpet-tongued for
more rigid provisions of law that this lib
erty shall not be abused to the injury of
-others aud to public disturbance.
And now the question arises, why this
plain and manifest suggestion has not
been heeded ? Why. aretbere so few and
America, which permits demagogues and
other unscrupulous people to set a whole
community by the ears, and endanger the
public safety with entire impunity to
themselves, unless a man will sue them
on private account?
The reason is very plain, and exists "no
longer; but we will point it out to indicate
the fact—to show why common sense, in
this particular, has been ignored, and that
now some proper provision for public or
der, peace and safety, can be made. The
reason grew out of the existence of Afri
can slavery in this country, and the efforts
of one section to assail, and the other to
defend it. Notwithstanding the fact that
slavery was universal throughout civiliza
tion until within two or three hundred
years, that it was sanctioned by the old
Testament, and recognized and regulated
by the New, aud was protected by our
laws, it was held and treated as a wrong
and crime by the other section, and so
earnest and persistent were the efforts to
protect and keep wide open all the aven
ues of moral assault upon it, that the ma
jority sections pushed the doctrines of
freedom of speech and press to a danger
ous and foolish’ extreme. The right to as
sail slavery, or practically, in other words,
the peace of communities tolerating it,
through mischievous emissaries and vio
lent, abusive, and inflammatory docu
ments,became the most precious deduction
from “freedom of speech and press” to the
Northern breast, and the only fundamen
tal idea they were careful to insist on.
They did insist on aud exercise it, till
they harried us into secession, freed the
slaves, and whipped us bade again.
But now, that slavery is dead, it is
manifest they will all have to come back
again to common sense. Speech is free—
the press is free and fire is free, but only
for a proper and safe use. There is noth
ing we have got from the hand of God or
man, that we are not bound to use with
due caution, and the mere we have got,
the stronger is this obligation. The North
now, with her labor questions and troubles,
her crowded populations, and the thou
sands of unscrupulous demagogues and
tramps, with the gift of speech and black
guardism, bumming around to get a liv-
ibg out of exdtements and troubles, has
got to abate her nonsense and provide for
her own safety by lawstoput a restraint on
moral incendiarism, and the sooner she
discovers this fact the safer .she will be.
There must be something to hold every
man to a plain responsibility for assaults
on' tbe public peace, and unless this is
done, in these great aggregations of inter
ests, the result will be as it was in Pitts
burg, Pa. Property and life will become
the sport of bummers, and property at last
pay in taxes the damages.
The Tehuantepec Railway.—Mr.
William J. McAlpine, the eminent engU
neer, has arrived at New York from Mex
ico, where he went several months ago to
survey the route for the proposed Tehuan
tepec railroad, which is to stretch 150
miles across Mexico and connect the At
lantic with the Pacific. He reports that
the route is perfectly feasible, with no
greater engineering difficulties than have
frequently been, overcome in this country.
The natives are eager to work upon the
road, and can be had at fifty cents a day.
Mr. McAlpine says the road will make a
much shorter route to the Pacific, as tbe
long run down to Aspinwall, Panama and
Cliagres will be avoided, and from New
Orleans the run will be a very short one
to the new port on tbe bay at tbe mouth of
the Coatzacoalcos river. Then, after 150
miles of rail travel, the traveler gets on
the steamer for San Francisco.
A Mew Bankrupt law.
The enactment of another bankrupt law I
is greatly exercising the trade centres of
the country, and the measure appears to
be assuming definite form and' shape. Nu
merous memorials from mercantile asso
ciations and individuals have been pre
sented to Congress and the question has
been agitated to such an extent that at
length Judge Lowell has been designated
to draw up a suitable bill covering all the
necessities of the case. This he has done
at great labor and pains, and the paper
will be submitted to Congresss for its con
sideration. If passed, it Will be the fourth
bankrupt law which has been in opera
tion during the last eighty years. The
following is Judge Lowell’s own summa
ry of his work, so far as it relates to the
mercantile interests ofthe country, which
we clip from the New York Bulletin:
The powers of registers are increased,
and their sessions are to be held at stated
times and places convenient for the suit-
ors. Provision is made for composition;
buf the rights of creditors are guarded by
the mode of proceeding and by requiring
oue-third of the composition to he paid in
cash, and the remainder to be amply se
cured; and of debtors by, giving them a
regular discharge as soon as this is done.
The amount of property exempted from
the operation of the decree Is made sub
stantially Uniform for all traders through
out the country. The honest debtor will
obtain his discharge more readily and at
less expense than under the old law.
The right of creditors to have a debtor
made bankrupt is substantially like that
of 1867. To. meet a kind of fraud and op
pression, which is hat too common, it is
made a crime in a creditor to take pay
ment for any act of forbearance in the
course ofthe proceedings, or more than
his share of a composition.
We believe that it is generally conceded
that a bankrupt law in some proper shape
is almost indispensable to the operations
of commerce.
In the mutations of trade, it not unfre-
quently occurs that the best merchants
and firms suffer collapse from untoward
circumstances over which they have no
control. A disastrous fire sweeps away
their goods and places of business, a
storm at sea sends to the bottom their rich
atgosies, insurance companies do not
come to time,business obligations mature,
and failure is the inevitable result.
Yet in many instances no possible
blame or negligence attaches to the un
fortunate sufferers. But If in the list of
creditors, a single enemy or man ofBslial
can be found who steels his heart against
all accommodation, there is no chance for
the ruined man to rise again and resur
rect his broken fortunes. Unheppily, in
all the past history of this country, how
ever, there never ha3 been a bankrupt law
which did not form an unpenetrable cloak
to knavery,* while the instances of relief
to honest men were “like Angel’s visits—
few and far between.”
The last act especially, became a very
stench in the nostrils ol the people, from
the barefaced corruption and fraud which
were so often practised with impunity
under its wretchedly imperfect provisions,
Better far have no statute of the kind
whatever. • ’ •
But it is said that Eugland has a bank
rupt law in operation which exerts a sal
utary influence upon the community.
Why not, then, study its features, and
seek to engraft upon our own statute all
that is salient and commendable in that
of our British cousins?
If all men would act squarely and
Snotlp, Ltwto TlilCrVGIl-
tlon of a bankrupt law could be amicably
and easily adjusted in the agreements and
compositions between debtor and creditor.
But, as stated above, one unyielding cred
itor may effectually mar every attempt at
settlement, while it is but too true, also,
that preferred debts defeat or render un
satisfactory many of the business compro
mises of the country. To sum up the
whole matter, then, we need a bankrupt
law, if it can be based upon just and equi
table principles. Otherwise better have
none at all. What will he the fate of
Judge Lowell’s'bill remains to be seen,
We trust it will be thoroughly ventilated
when introduced- into Congress.
Coast Fortification.—The Senate
committee has largely increased the
House appropriations for coast fortifica
tion. The domain of Uncle Samuel is
too extensive to be fenced in against out
siders in that way. The coast line of the
United States is about ton thousand miles
long, and we would like to have the
Congressional brethren figure up, at their
leisure, whether the imperfect system of
fortifieation which alone b possible, with
the expense of repairs and garrisons,
would not cost forty timet over the
amount of damage the country is like to
sustain for want of it. It U a humbug at
best.

The Meeting of the State Democrat
ic Committee.
It will be seen from the accompanying
call of the Chairman, Colonel George N.
Lester, that the Executive Committee of
the Democratic party of the State, has
been summoned to meet in Atlanta on
Tuesday, the 30th of March. Doubtless
tbe necessary action will then be taken
for the calling , together, at au early day,
of a general Convention ol the Democracy
for the purpose of selecting delegates to
the National Democratic Convention,
which meets in Cincinnati June 22d. An
address may also be issued to the people
ofthe State, and divers questions of im
portance to the interests of the country
come up for discussion. Georgia will he
an important factor in the pending Presi
dential struggle, and we trust she will
move off with even tread from the very
outset, and do her whole duty in behalf of
liberty . and constitutional government,
The call is as follows:

The Cincinnati Celebration.
Georgia will be numerously and nobly
represented in the grand convocation of
business aud professional men' who will
represent every guild and class of the'
community at the grand gathering iu Cin
cinnati this week, to commemorate the
completion aud opening of her great high
way to the sea. It is an important event
in the history of both sections, and will go
fartowards breaking down every harrier
that exists between them.
Many of the principal merchants, not
only of Macon,but all the interior cities of
the State, have gone on resolved to be
come personally acquainted with their
correspondents, and not a few of them will
make heavy purchases' from their Wes
tern brethren before returning home.
This is especially true of some of our Ma-
cou firms. Indeed, the opening of the
Cincinnati Southern Railroad will in
augurate an immense trade
from this whole region with that
flourishing city, and divert much business
from the more distant North and East.
And this is but the beginning of what may
confidently be expected when St. Louis
and Louisville, under the late combina
tions of the Louisville and Nashville
Railroad, begin to pour their commerce
through the new channels which have
been opened up to the seaports of Geor
gia, South Carolina, Alabama and Flor
ida. For the first time we shall see the
grain and other produce of the West seek
ing European outlets from Southern cities
through a region in which railway and
river transportation is never blocked up
or even obstructed by deep snows or icy
barriers. That a new and decided impe
tus to the prosperity of Geoigia in partic
ular will be the result of these railroad
combinations, there is no reason what
ever to doubt.
Cincinnati has made every preparation
to receive with royal hospitality her
thousands ol Southern visitors.

life, and if his oldest son should then be
elected as his immediate successor, and
perpetually re-elected in like manner, and
his oldest son in the same way, keeping
the office in the family for successive gen
erations, We freely concede that there is
nothing in the consttaffikm to forbid it.
But whether perpetual re-eligibility is
wise, expedient or safe is quite a different
question, of which the negative seems to
us as evident as the affirmative of the
other is incontestable.
Perpetual re-eligibility might, as in the'
case of General Grant, mean an empire, a
crown, a dictator. Better let the unwrit
ten, hut nevertheless sacred law ot custom
and precedont. which has obtained since
the foundation ol st*. Government, con
tinue to bave sway. Why shouiu
be preferred to Washington and Jackson ?
THE ROBERTS’ TRAGEDY.
Awaiting Trial,
Yesterday morning a reporter of the
Telegraph and Messenger called
the jail to see Mr. James Roberts, who is
there awaiting his preliminary trial for the
killing ol Mr. Sol Roberts in this city last
Saturday, an account of which has already
appeared in these columns. The prison
er was caim and collected,speaking freely
of the incidents attendant upon the trag
edy, but showing aft unwillingness to en
ter into anything relating to family troub
les. In response to questions put
to him by the reporter, he said that
he had,, no idea of creating
a difficulty; that some weeks since he had
had some trouble with the father of the
deceased in this city; that he had since
then gone to him and made it up; that
upon the day of the first difficulty, Sol
Roberts (the deceased) had run him out
of town, and that bis object in approach
ing him in front of Cannon & Co’s, store
was a peaceful settlement of all differen
ces. “I called him aside,” continued the
prisoner, “and asked him why he had run
me out of town. He cursed me and said,
by G—d he’d do it again, at the same
time drawing his pistol
drew mine, and stepped back
until I reached the wall, he following mo
when I raised my pistol quick and fired,
He did not know I could fire so quick, but
I happened to have a self-cocking pistol,
I did not see him fail; did not know he
was shot, because I sprang round the cor
ner expecting to get shut before I could
get away.. I am sick; have been under
medical treatment for a year; I am
twenty-four years old, about five feet nine
inches high and weigh 140 pounds. Sol
was over six feet and weighed mere than
200 pounds. He was considered one ol
the most powerful men iu the country,
am married and have two chjldren,
fired to save my life.
This is the prisoner’s atement, as elic
ited by many questions. In appear
ance he. is quiet and peaceable, having
rather a pleasant expression about his
face, and conversing without embarrass
ment.
Tbe friends and relatives of the deceased
have been in town all day, holding fre
quent consultations with Mr. C. J. Harris,
who has been retained by the defense,
The commitment trial will take place to
day, If all the witnesses can he secured.
A Statement From the Other Side.
In Tuesday’s issue we gave a detailed
account ofthe late lamentable tragedy by
which Mr. Sol Roberts met his death iu
this city. We published tho facts as re
lated to us by the prisoner without com
ment, leaving it to the public to form its
own opinions. It will in all matters of
this nature be the policy of this paper to
side withieither party. We propose always
to give only true and unbiased account of
occurrences, where the rights of the vari
ous actors therein are to become subjects
ofjudicial investigation
Yesterday we called upon Mr. Jack
Roberts, the father of the deceased, who
with his two remaining sons are tempora
rily in town, to obtain if possible, the
facts as understood by them. We found
Mr. Roberts much affected over the sad
scenes through which he has passed, yet
perfectly willing to state every circum
stance connected with the tragedy. He
regards it as his duty now to vindicate Ms
son, and to place upon record every fact
that can do justice to his memory. He
denies most emphatically the truth of
the . statement made to us yes
terday by the prisoner, so far as it related
to there having been any difficulty be
tween the dqpeased and liis slayer. He
declared that the difficulty originated in
James Roberts, (the prisoner) wbo at
tempted some weeks since in tbe city to
entice a laborer from the employment of
his sons; that lie remonstrated with the
negro and afterwards, while in the door
way of F. S. Johnson's Sons store, was
knife which had been purchased for that
purpose only a few -minutes previous;
that he thrust his assailant from him
and warned Mm away. “I did not
want any fuss,” he continued, -“and
would not let my sons have anything
to do with it. Jim Roberts went to Can
non & Co.’s store and tried to borrow a
pistol. Failing to borrow one, he went
on around to Carhart & Curd’s to buy
one. I kept both my sons with me, cross
ing the streets several times to avoid
meeting Jim. When we reached Can
non’s store, I would not let them enter
until Mr. Wilbonrn came out aud told us
Jim was not there. Sol, the deceased,
never run him out of town, never spoke
to him that day, never was within half a
square of him, even. Witnesses will testi
fy that our whole effort that day was to
keep from having any fuss. This was
two or three weeks ago. To-day my two
sons are with me iu town. I
have been avoiding the other party
all day long. I have crossed the
streets time and again to keep out of their
way, and have just sent totheCMefof
Police for a guard to protect me while I
am here, for I am afraid they mean mis-
cMef.” Mr. Roberts asserted that his
dead son had not only been a peaceable
man, hut a pious one, aud that his char
acter *t« such was known throughout
Jones county, aud in this.
The commitment trial" will probably be
held to-day. There has been some trou
ble in getting the witnesses subpoenaed.
Mr. F. S. Johnson, a very important wit
ness, is with the Cincinnati excursionists.
Macon In 1830.
We were shown yesterday an old map
of the city dated 1826, when Mocon was
in its Infancy. It is curious to note from
the plots and surveys, the expectations of
the original planners. Evidently the town
has grown away from where it was in
tended it should remain. The streets that
were numbered, bogan at First street and
ran down to the Eleventh, the latter
street ending at the river where it is cross
ed by the Macon and Augusta railroad
bridge below the park. The streets that
were named were Wharf, Walnut, Mul
berry, Cherry, Poplar and Pine, the latter
being the southwest boundary. “Church
Square” was the name of the old ceme
tery ground; “Court House Square” in
cluded the entire square upon wMch is
now located the Lanier House, and had
the city been built as originally bounded,
the centre of trade would have been
around the old court house square where
Mulberry crosses Fifth street. The pres
ent park and swamp lands adjoining,
would have been covered by residences
and stoies.
The map shows at the comer of Fifth
(or Bridge) street the name of Eli Shorter,
the other three comers are marked Rob
ert Coleman, Thomas Napier and Farrish
c<Htar. The spot occupied by Asher
Ayres’ residence and improved
by Sam’l Tompkins; that of Dr: adudo-
velt’s by John Nesbit, and the residence
of Mr. W. W. Wrigley stands on ground
then owned by John T. Lamar. Where
the depot now stands, improvements were
made in 1S2C by John Chambers, D. F.
Wilson aud John W. Roberts. Bullock
& Wells occupied the site of the Ralston
Hall building. A house belonging to
David Ralston stood on the site of D. J.
Baer's store, and Josiah Freeman' occu
pied Nussbaum & Dannenburg’s comer.
A note on the side ofthe map states that
owing to the uncertainty of the compass,
boundaries must he determined by the
posts.
KELLOGG AND HILL.
How the Carpet-bagger Tried to En
snare the Georgia Senator.
The Washington correspondent of the
Sun gives the following story, wMch
has been current at the capital for several
days:
Senator Hill, of Geoigia, is preparing
the report ofthe investigation ofthe Sen
ate Committee on Privileges and Elec
tions iu the Kei logg-Spofiord case. The
report will recommend the unseating of
Kellogg, and the swearing in of Spoiford
as Senator in Kellogg’s place. The re
port prepared by Senator Hill will de
clare that the investigation has proved
that Kellogg resorted to fraud to secure
his election, and that he bribed a fraudu
lently elected Legislature to return him to
the United States Senate. It i3 believed
that Kellogg has endeavored to intimidate
Senator Hill, and it is now suspected that
the Senator from Louisiana was one of
the authors of the recent attempt made
by a woman named Jessie Raymond, to
blacken Mr. Hill’s personal character.
Several weeks ago a Senate door keeper
came to Mr. Hill wMle on the floor
of the Senate and said that the driver of a
carriage had requested Mm (the door
keeper) to say to Mr. Hill that Mrs. Kel
logg was in a carriage on the driveway
under the Senate Chamber steps and
would like to see Mm. Mr Hill told tbe
door keeper that there must be some mis
take. He did not know Mrs. Kellogg, and
it was probable that a mistake had been
made. The doorkeeper was positive that
Senator Hill of Georgia was the person
Mrs. Kellogg wanted to see. Mr. Hill
then called another doorkeeper and di
rected him to go down to tbe carriage
and tell the lady that he would see her in
the Marble Room. To Mr. Hill's intense
astonishment the doorkeeper led into the
Marble Room a person whom he recog
nized as a divorced woman formerly from
Georgia, who is reputed to be tbe friend of
the Republican Senatorof Louisiana. He
held a short consultation with the woman,
who seemed pleased at the success of the
trick to become acquainted with the Sena
tor from Georgia. She told him that very
bad stories affecting Ms character were in
circulation, and insisted that he should
visit her at her rooms, where she would
give him full particulars. He promised
to pay the visit, but, of course, has never
done so. This circumstance, occurring
just before Miss] Raymond made her
scandalous charges, naturally has created
suspicions in Mr. Hill’s mind unfavorable
to Mr. Kellogg.
and permits appraisers to be appointed
and to make their" return into court, the
administrator has no right to take the
land to pay the debt of the heir at law, as
against tbe judgment creditors of the heir
at law.
Judgment affirmed.
Dozier vs. Allen. Certiorari,from Schley.
Where a defendant is sued in the Jus
tice’s court of a district wliich has no ju
risdiction of his person, that is a personal
privilege which -the defendant' had the
right to waive so far as he was individ
ually concerned, but not as to the rights
of other persons—14th Ga. reports, 589.
Judgment affirmed.
Lewis vs.. Armstrong,administrator. Mo
tion from Sumter.
Under the decision in this case, in 61
GaL 608, there was no error in the refusal
of the court below, to submit to a jury the
question of the dismissal of the case, by
whiabthe security claimed to have been
hurt, nor in refusing the amendment of-
ferred.
Rhett, trustee, vs. Geoigia Land Cotton
Company. Claim from Dougherty.
-In 45 Ga., 585; 46 Ga., 389; 49 Ga., 274,
and 58 Ga., 451, it is ruled that the pur
chaser at adminislrator’s sale gets a good
title over any judgment lien, especially
where the estate is insolvent, even over a
judgment obtained in the lifetime of the
intestate; and that the lien is transferred
from the property sold to the proceeds in
the hands of the administrator. And in
59 Ga., 516 the same rule is applied to the
specific lieu of a mortgage.
So, where land is sold at administrator’s
sale, as the property of the husband,
pending a bill filed in another county by
the wife to subject such property to the
wife’s equity on the ground that her
money paid for the same, and before any
decree thereon, the purchaser at such sale
acquires a good title. Nor does the pen
dency ol such a bill operate as such an
equitable levy as to bring this case witin
the ruling in 58 Ga., 451, that the lien of
a judgment actually levied was not de
vested by such sale.
Judgment affinned.
Alston vs. Wilson. Claim from Web
ster.
The special lien ofthe landlord torrent
of produce raised on the land, is superior
to ah agreement between the tenant and
his sub-tenant as to the ownersMp of such
produce. Judgment affinned.
Spann vs. Commissioners of Webster.
Equity from Webster.
A tax for expenses of jail is equivalent
to a levy “to maintain and support prison
ers,” and is authorized by the 2d para
graph of the 6th section of article 7 of the
constitution of 1877.
The tax for incidental expenses is not
authorized by either ofthe paragraphs ci
ted, nor by any other clause of the consti
tution of 1877, of wMch we are aware, or
to which our attention has been directed;
it is a very loosely worded item, under
which many expenses incident to what is
not specified, and is impossible to be as
certained from the language used; migli'
be incurred and paid against the spirit of
the present constitution by taxation, wMch
the Legislature, since the adoption of the
constitution of 1877, could not delegate to
any county; and wMcb, therefore, as all
taxing power must flow from the General
Assembly, no county can now impose.
Code 516,518.
The levy of 22 per centum for iron safes
is not mentioned in the puiposes enumer
ated in said 2d paragraph of the Cth sec
tion and 7th article; nor are there words
twain wMch, without much latitude of
construction can be construed to authorize
the tax. Besides, the purchase of these
safes is the creation of a new debt since
the adoption of the constitution of 1877,
and expressly prohibited by the 1st para
graph of the 7th section of article 7,^‘with-
out the assent of two-thirds of the quali
fied voters of the county at an election for
that purpose, to be held as mgy be pre
scribed by law.”
At the last term in the case of Hudson
etal. vs. mayor, etc., of Marietta, this
construction was given to this "'paragraph
of the constitution, and the city of Mari
etta was enjoined from incurring a new
debt since the adoption of the constitution
of 1S77, for the purpose of a steam fire
engine forcity purposes. That case cov
ers the item of taxation in this case, and
the principle ruled then by two justices of
this court is affinned by a full bench.
These safes might have been bought on
a credit and a debt incurred therefor prior
to this constitution—Code 497-502; and
they may be bought still, if the county
should have surplus funds from any source
to pay cash for them—Code 528; or if the
debt be incurred with the assent of two-
thirds of the voters ofthe county, but not
otherwise. We think, therefore, that the
injunction should be granted to stay the
collection ofthe tax for incidental ex
penses and for the iron safes. '
Judgment reversed.
