WEDNESDAY MOKNING, AUGUST Hi. 1871.
Tiic Snpreme Court*
Atlanta., August 14. 1871.
Editori Telegraph and Messenger: In my last
I promised to give yon my impressions of
THE StTTREME COURT.
And, if it be not presnmptnons, I will tell yon
what I think it f.honld 1-e; » nd then, wha t I
think it is. Unimpsssionwl, unmoved by the
heaving and oft-shifting waves of public preju
dice, it should stand as •, 10
constitution and protect the rights of the peo
ple It is before this tribunal an honest man
nav always tread with firm step and buoyant
heart in fall confidence of. its virluo and sta
bility If to anything else onr pathway leads,
hoDO murt’vanish, os from year to year the dark
future shall unfold and bring in fuller view tho
woes thst betide ns, and will ernsh with wider
range, not only tho pillars of, bnt tho templo of
civil liberty itself. The Superior Conrt Bench
bad to bo filled from tho weak and erratic mate
rials resident in tho respective circuits identified
with tho State administration. This well ao-
eonnts for tho utter destitution of judicial fitness
on the part of many of onr judges, whoso opin
ions command no reapoet,and hence the crowded
state of the Snpromo CJonrl dockets. Wo nat
urally look for political factions to be guided by
the passions and prejndicos that spring out of
their straggles to get and hold placo and power.
This is an evil to which all governments have
been more or less subject; and it would bo ex
pecting too much of an onlightened Christian
Ilepublic, oven if govomed by tho best intelli
gence and by the classes possessing the
most pnbiio virtue, that it should bo en
tirely exempt from it. Bnt it is not un
just or nureasonablo for tho pcoplo ■ to
demand of the Snpromo Justiciary of tho State,
that the garments with which their judges are
clothed shall be koptin spotless whiteness, un
tarnished by partisanship,unmoved by the pow
ers above or the masses beneath them. This is
the snblime consummation of the American cit
izens’ hone. Bad passions will assail ns all,
bnt tho judiciary must be impervions to their
efforts. Evils and errors must needs fall thick
and heavy upon tho country, bnt tho judiciary
most rear her head aloft and stand erect, like
the rock clad monntain peaks amid the infnri-
ated winds of heaven. Let rings form and
flourich with ill gotten gains, and dissolvo when
hostile interests break the golden eirclo. Let
dynasties hatch in the filth of evil times and
fatten, and at last be poisoned upon the cor
ruptions they produce. Lot partios riso and
fall with Ibo ebbing and flowing of popular
passions. Let administrations flourish npon
their wisdom and virtue, or go down disgraced
amid the elond of their errors and vices, bnt in
* the name of jnstico and right, that nro eternal,
in the name of n pcoplo doomed to misery
whon these are stifled, in tho name of Gonstitn-
tional Government, the last hope of sufforiDg,
priest-ridden, power-enrsed humanity on earth,
let the escutcheon of the Snpreme Conrt bear
down with their history to unborn generations
the unsullied emblems of learning, free from
partisan bias, nninfinenoed by mixgnided sym
pathy, nnawed by power, bnt guided and con
trolled by organic law.
Georgia has no native son in high placo.—
The United States Jndge for Georgia, and tho
Chief Justioe of the State Conrt nre Irishmen;
the asaooiate Jnstiees nro men of Northern birth,
thongh all are identified with her in interest and
sympathy, and none of them wanting in expe
rience and ability. It is a penalty imposed by
tbs ruling powers, that tholeadingminds of onr
section tiiut still bear faith and allegiance to
troth and political virtne, and cherish as more
sacred than tho profits of office the honor or onr
people, are doomed to private life.
The conrt has lost mneh of that impressivo
dignity which characterized tho first twenty
years of its history. The Jndgos each soem
anxious to show their sagacity, by freqnently
interrupting debate, by asking relevant and ir
relevant questions in the midst of unfinished
sentences and paragraphs of arguments pro
gressing before them ; and by injecting hypoth
eses of oases to bo answered impromptu by at
torneys in the midst of their arguments/and
often totally foreign to tho matter then being
discussed. It not nnfreqnently happens that
two Jndges are thus interogating at once, and
the attorney trying to answer at the same time.
Tho scene reminds ns of a batch of cross-road
politicians, all trying to ventilate their ideas of
tho science of government at once. This meth
od of oolloqnial argument in conrt, is not only
undignified in a conrt of this character, bnt
tends to contuse that class of attorneys whose
minds aot slowly and aro not ready in nn off-hand
debato. There are a few to whom it gives an ad
vantage. Questions intended to got information
aa to facts to enable the Judges to understand the
arguments are eminently proper. Bat those
intended, either to show tho sagacity of the
Jndge or confuse the member of his conrt who
is engaged in representing a cause before him,
aro distasteful—not to uso a harsher term to
-express it. He has his tirno to be beard—it is
whon he pronounces the opinion and places it
npon tho records of tho Court. And a proper
regard far the amenities between the bench and
bar, reqnires that he should speak at his proper
time aud place. There is more sorions objec
tion, than that of judicial dignity and profes
sional etiquette, to this practice into which onr
Supreme Conrt has fallen. As long as the ease
is open for debate at (til, the mind of tho Conrt
ahonld be nnbiased, the feelings all impartial
and the judgment open to conviction. This
impossible after tho Jndge has thns pnbhcly
engaged in a oolloqnial discussion with the at
torney in his argument. He takes a side in tho
case and ought to be on tho floor instead of tho
bench. For, however honest be may lie, he is
no longer an impartial Judge. It is the duty of
the attorney to bring all tho facts before tho
Conrt, refresh the memory of the Conrt npon
the law, present decisions of other Conrts on
similar questions, anil reason fairly as to his
client's rights. The Jndges are paid to bear all
this, tedions though it sometimes may be, aud
thoy aro bound to hear it impartially. When
that is done, their decisions nre received by the
profession ami the peoplo and respected. Tho
dignity, ability, integrity and fairness of this
court, aro priceless jewols to the people; and
nothing will tend more than the want of cither,
to undermine pnbiio virtne, and the force and
stability of pnbiio laws.
justice a. k m'oay,
Thongh not a native of, has a life-long identity
with the peoplo of this State. He is the only
professed Christian on the Snpreme Bench
nud thongh innch abased, and n part of tho
abase he rooeived was merited, those who know
him boat have tho better opinion of his head
nnd heart. He is a man of nerve, n bold and
free thinker, and fearlessly follows the dictates
of his judgment. His brain is of good size and
active, supported by a durable physical consti
tution. His mind, well stored with knowledge,
is both speculative and practical. And if ho
were nothing bnt a judge, be wonld be well
qualified for the position ho holds. Bnt his
prodileotions led him into radicalism—his tal
ents in a party so bereft of real ability in this
State, made him n loader—a chief actor in tho
formation of the Government, and elevated
him to the place he holds. <ft baa been tho gen
erally received opinion, that he has been active
and controlling in the counsels of the imbecile
and oorrnpt administration that now curses the
people of this State, shaping legislation and ad
ministrative policy, and then sitting in judg
ment to affirm that legislation and policy. If
this is not trne, he is falsely accused, and the
aoensation withholds from him the measure of
pnbiio confidence that shonld bo awarded to a
man of his integrity and ability, and to a Jndge
of the Snpreme Conrt. If it is trne, now that
he is in position, he owes it to the people and
bar who respect him personally, and to his own
reputation, to cut loose from these political en-
tangiemonis and devote his strong mind and
good heart to the office of Judge. If he will do
th's his future career may be eminently nsefnl.
If he persists in being a politician and jndge
he will spoil both, and sncceod well nt neither.
The relief measnres of the State Government
have called down censure npon him. Resist
ance^ their binding force has elicited praise
of his associate. Pretermitting any expression
as to how far political alliances and pecuniary
interest may affect tho honest judgment of men,
I will snggest that nndne praise, as well as un
just censure, may have been bestowed both ways;
that we now have mneh to forbear; and when
tho smoke of these dark days shall have cleared
away, and we can look back upon them without
tho passions that are now excited by interest
we shall see much that we will be mutually wil
ling to forgive.
JTaTICE HlfiAlT WABNE3
bas been long connected with pnblic affairs in
this State, with whose people he identified him
self in early life. Most of his youthful ootem-
porories have gone to that “bourne whence no
traveler returns,” and by reason of greatnatural
strength and uniformly temperate habits, he is
not only a connecting link between the past and
present ages, bnt preserves much of the vigor
and elasticity of his middle life. His force of
character elevated him to the State Legislature
at a period >hon the best talents were to be
found there, forty-five years ago. After serving
with distinction two years on tho circuit bench,
he had practiced at the bar several years prior
to the organization of the Snpreme Court in
1845. His associates of the first bench, Lump
kin and Nisbet, stood in their lot and place, and
fell at last, full of years and honors. They were
eminent as lawyers, jndges, patriots, scholars,
gentlemen—and last thongh most important, as
Christians, and departed, ready for the great
Assize above, and prepared to bo judged by their
faith and ol»edienoe in Christ-Jesus. 'When
Judge Lumpkin fell asleep, Warner was called
to the Chief Justiceship of tho Conrt—an ap
pointment approved by the -whole bar of the
If when that court was dissolved by the edicts
of tho Federal Government, he had retired, the
breezes that shonld sweep over his grave wonld
have borne to mortal ears no whisper of reproach
upon any part of his life.
Ho accepted the third rank on the bench with
men born after he was a lawyer, perhaps, and
who had never boon on that bench. This many
of the bar appeared after he was driven to the
alternative of accepting or refusing it. Bnt
he songht nnd accepted position nnder Rufns B.
Bollock, and was so far removed from his past
alliances, and so nearly assimilated with him as
to receive his favor. This, when his pecuniary
condition did not demand it. When it was not
necessary to fill np tho measure of his fame as
a jurist. This is a historic plaster that will
stick. For when the thousand tongues of his
tory leap from tho influence of Federal bayonets
and are free to record the whole troth, this ad
ministration will form so black a spot on the
annals of Georgia, that no man can have passed
tbrongh it as a recipient of its favor without
having his garments soiled.
Bnt Judge Warner’s share of the reproach
will bo tho least of all his companions, for ho
has placed on record a lino of decisions which
indicate his unyielding devotion to tho consti-
tion. And while it is not to be expected that
he should retain his mental vigor as it was a
qnarter of a century ago, if there is any strik
ing sign of tho old man about him, it is in the
fretful manner in which he dissents from his
associates npon qnestions of contracts, and the
collection of debts. May his years be pro
longed and bis honors brighten with the ad
vance of time.
CHIEF JUSTICE O. A. LOCHRANE,
who holds nnder temporary appointment since
the resignation of Chief Justice Brown, has
been charged at the bar of the Senate of the
United States, where he had no voice to defend,
with boing the friend of “everybody.” H a life
of nniforw politeness, a bland smile, n kind
word, o heart and hand ready alike, for all his
follow creaturos, an amiable disposition towards
associates and opponents, a faithful effort to
elevato himself in the profession, extend his
reputation nnd increase his emoluments, and a
manifest willingness heretofore to serve the
public in official station, and frequent changes
of political nllignment, make oat the charge, he
must stand convicted. Bnt if it requires that
he should have betrayed his private friendships,
or proved recreant to trnsts reposed in him, the
evidence is wanting, anil tho accusation most
fail. Nor is it apparent that he has songht office
with more perseverance than his accusers.
A few instances, aniloDly a few, have occurred
whore the choice of the Govornor was the choice
or met the approval of tho bar and people. The
appointment of Jndge Locbrano was not one of
them. But ho is entitled to justice at the hands
of his profession—and that re quires a frank ad
mission that his bearing is pleasant, his treat
ment conrtoons, and his attention earnest and
nnremitted; and all the decisions pronounced
by him, so far as I have heard them, show a
critical examination and a clear and distinct un
derstanding of the matters reviewed before him.
He concurs when his judgment approves, and
dissonts when he dissents in opinion from his
learned associates. Those who favor the collec
tion of old debts accuse him, as they do McCay,
and as those favoring relief do Warner. If
otherwise there has been aoy suspicion of a
want of official fidelity, I have not heard of it.
Men of literary endowments and florid style of
popular eloquence—capable of moving the
masses and wielding jnries—usually get the char
acter of a want of solidity nnd depth. Many
who are wanting in and sigh for these gifts are
not slow in attempting to mould the character
of their superiors. This is a point at which
Judge Locbrano has snffeied. It is not, and
never was, evidence of a want of solidity of
mind that it was quick and brilliant. The dia
mond, while it ontshines, ents by reason of its
hardness. Tho diamond wonld need no defense,
if charged by lead or brass with a want of solid
ity becanso it shines brightly. In my next I will
givo yon my impressions of Atlanta.

Crops About Fort Gaines.
Fobt Gaines, Clay county, Ga., August 12.
Editors Telegraph and Messenger: I have
seen mneh writing abont crops in the newspa
pers, and mneh to disconrago peoplo abont
Southwestern Georgia and its health. I havo
not proapocteil mneh of the growing crop, bnt
nronnd Fort Gaines the crops are as good as
oould be expected. Cob It. A. Tnmipseed has
abont twenty-five acres in cotton near town,
withont manure that will make a kale to tho aerp.
His corn crop on his place near town is good,
and he informs me that on bis plantation, fonr
miles north from town, he is. making a good
crop of corn and will have several hundred
bnsbels to sell after supplying bis plantation,
and that on his plantation he will average a
bale of cotton to two acres. Mr. Thomas E.
Speight, who lives two or three miles south of
tho town, says that ho has a good corn crop-
will make more than enough to supply his
place; that his cotton crop is as good as ever;
that ho will doubtless make seventy-five bales,
and his crop since the war has ranged from fifty
to seventy-five bales, I believe. I notice other
places abont prodncingaccordingto the strength
of tho land and cnltnre. Col. Tnrnipseod has
need no gnano, and f do not think Mr. Speight
bas. thongh I have not heard him say.
The health of the town and county is good
—less chills and fever than I havo ever known
in a county In this section of country since the
war. Chills nnd fever are not an epidemic in
Southwest Georgia—as some wonld make yon
beliove. Nowif yon wishtosee as I have seen,
and writo as I have written, and place the
conntry right on the record, some of yon “pack
off” down to Fort Gaines—spend a night with
Dick Tnrnipseeil. He lives in tho town; and
will take splendid care of yon, and show yon
his crops and the crops of his neighbors. Then
yon will be satisfied that wherever the soil is
rich enough to make prodnee, it is there in
nbnndance. Do not be afraid of chills. A young
man returned from New York to Fort Gaines
abont ten days ago, and is in fine health. Oth
ers of the citizens havo been off np the conntry,
for months, and say they can enjoy better
health at home than abroad. For the last throe
days mneh rain has fallen in and aronnd the Fort;
If I never write again, the typo will not com
plain at Coax.
Miss Wolcott, the young lady who was in
jured in the recent railroad accident in Charles
town, N. H., hod a marvellous escape. When
the train strack the carriage, she was hnrled
above the top of the telegraph pole, her fall be
ing broken by the wires.

TUUE undersigned, laving resumed the manufacture of the above Gin, propose to make it what itwas
J before the war—The favorite of the South. Onr work stands npon its merits, and we think this a
sufficient guarantee. We have secured the services of some of the best mechanical talent in the North
ern shops, iu addition to some of the best workmen from the shop of the late Samuel Griswold. Mr. Chas.
Gardner, who served eight years’apprenticeship under E. Carver A Co., at East Bridgewater, Mass.,
and who was employed as Superintendent of the Double Wells Shop, from the commencement of the
manufacture of the’Sfoore Cotton Gin, until its suspension, is again at his post, and will give each Gin
his personal inspection before it leaves the shop.
In calling the attention of planters to our Cotton Gins, wo desire that they should notice the mprove-
monts that we offer, which are substantially as follows:
A PORTABLE ROLL 33 OX,
Fcr obtaining any inclination of the Gin Bib or Grate, is used; the object of which is to improve in the
quantity ginned, or lesson the quantity and improve the quality of lint Also, to gin damp or wet cotton
to alter the picking or separating the lint from the seed—either to take more lint off, or less lint from
the seed, as circumstances require. Wo use both the common Boll Box and a Swinging Front. The
latter is arranged to let out all tho seeds and hulls in a moment, and is very easily managed.
, THE GIN BRUSH
We make, cannot be excelled by any hair brash used. The bristles are all drawn in by a cord, and the
timber is all selected from tho best lumber, well seasoned; and every Brush is made perfectly fire and
rat proof.
CYLINDER AND BRUSH BOXES
Can furnish either, as may be ordered. Wo line them with the best
Grlisr SAWS.
We make all the Saws that we nee from tho best English Cast Steel, and of any size that may be de
sired We employ, to superintend and manufacture oar Saws, one of the be6t saw-maters in the South;
and onr machinery for the manufacture of Gin Saws cannot be excelled.
COTTON SEED CRUSHING MILL.
We are the only snccesjfu! manufacturers of this important and useful invention the Cotton Gin,
with tlio Cottou Seed Crushing Mill attached. It will hardly be necessary here to allude to theimmenso
saving ami economical use of crushed cotton seed, as a manure. We received a gold medal as a premi
um, from the Fair of the Cotton Planters’ Convention, held in Macon Ga., 1860, for the beet Cotton
Seed Crushers attached to tho Gin Stand, to crash the seed as fast as it escapes from the Boll. We re
fer to some of the many certificated that we have on the subject.
TRIAL OF THE GINS.
We keep constantly on hand seed cotton, and every Gin is tried before it leaves tho shop—old or new
ones.
REPAIRING OF OLD GINS.
We havo a complete assortment of the very best Cotton Gin Machinery in the conntry, and make re
pairing of old Gins a specialty. Planters wiff do well to send in their old Gina, aud have them made as
good as new, at a much lees cost than a new Gin can be bought for. Seed on jour orders and old Gins
early.
We are also authorized by Messrs. Findlay’s Sons to receive orders for Findlay & Craig’s Screw Cotton
Press, and Craig’s Patent Portable Horse Power, and Castings generally.
For particulars, send for Circular and Price List.
