Nrtts Items,
A Co** C*or.—The Mobile liegirferwys Mr.
B. B. Griffin, of Talladega county, in this State,
raised this year five hundred and forty bushels
of oom from eleven acres.
Mxxtoo—A Matamoraa dispatch via Now
York says there will be a general revolt against
the Juarez government by the first of Decem
ber. Another dispatch from the same point via.
New Orleans represents Trevino's position be
fore Saltillo aa rather critical. The Mexicans
would confer a favor on the human race by
swallowing each other and making that country
vacant land subject to entry.
Ponevzo llxanraos.—About three weeks ago
the Bremen atcamthip Dernitcr arrived at New
York with an assorted cargo, among which were
t;,000 kegs of Dutch herrings and on the same
deck fifty casks of arsenic. In very rough
weather her cargo was displaced—many of the
-..v. 01 kegs of herrings broken end some of
the Osaka of eraenic sharing the aame fate, a
dangerous admixture ensued. Nevertheless the
herrings were repeeked end went into the hands
of dealers end ere said to have been jobbed
round the country. Tho morel is, people should
be chary about Dutch herrings for a while.
Caul Beatrix lectured on Civil Herviee Re
form last Thursday in Cooper Inatitnte Halt,
New York. 11a was heavy on corruption and
office brokerage, and said it was high time for
alt honest men to unite end put e stop to them.
“ We are standing," aaid he, “on the threshold
of a tremendous revolution in onr political
Ufa. Yonr splendid victory reeeelly achieved
here will be but ephemeral, bke those in
Franoe, giving a republic one day and an em
pire, or something worse, the next, if it is not
followed np nntii the whole system of spolia-
Uon and patronage is obliterated All over the
country."
Aeirmax’s Captives.—A Washington special
to the Cincinnati Uaxottc saya that at the last
Cabinet meeting, Attorney General Akerman
reported that be bad two thousand prisoners in
Booth Carolina alone, esptnred under the Ku
klnx sot. A debate followed as to the ability
of the conrte and of the general government to
take ears of so large a proportion of the popn
lution and a general deposition was manifested
to have the arrests somewhat restricted, and if
passible, confined in the Kaklnx order. Aker*
man must bo a happy man to bold so many pris
oners, though, perhaps, still a little dissatisfied
that be has got no more. Akerman will enjoy
hie Thanksgiving dinner this year.
The 8L I. mis Republican of last Thursday,
has the following:

In the House of Representatives on Monday
the special order of the day, to wit; the resolu
tions by Mr. Bacon declaring that, in all eat

tional provisions, and in violation of the tame,

and after considerable discussion passed by
large majority. Tin so resolutions are harmo
nious with the oonrso suggested by the Tile-
oeai-h in a long article upon these bonds, pub
lished more than a week ago. We are glad that
the House has taken the bull by the home and
dealt with these bondholders in a spirit of can
dor and manliness, while they have defended
the rights of the people nndcr then resolutions.
Now let the Senate follow suit and no matter
these resolutions are defeated by Executive
veto. They will show where the legislature
will stand finally, and inexorably. State in
dorsements obtained to tern da in di fiance of
expreea constitutional provisions can never bind
the people.

Ha3os Fm* —We regret to see the the action
of the Uonae on the bill abolishing the Diatrtrt
Court system of this State, which the Senate has
promptly passed. The system is, in our ja-fg
xaosf, setrg-uiatie to the wishes, as it is delri
mental to the pockets of a very large majority
of the tax payen of Georgia, and we felt assured
that a bill abuliJung it would peas both Houses
With very hide opposition—from Democrats, st
least. Tho machine was first erected for

of waa to (trengtbra the Radiaal party. It ia

who did not near make bo h ends meet out of

thing to do with the opposition to its atmlition

members of the House, who possibly have
their eyes on tho prospective profits to result
from a displacement of the “ins” by Demo-
C ratio successors. We believe there are a good

Ftusperons of the profession, just now, is very

Resigned.—CoL S. L. Fremont, for many
joata Engineer and Superintendent of the Wil-
roington and Weldon railway, has resigned that
position, and will henceforth devote his whole
time and energies to the duties of Superintend
ent of the Wilmington, Charlotte A Rutherford
railway. Capt. John F. Divine succeeds Col.
Fremont on the Wilmington and Weldon Roil,
road.
Mato Atrl to ICnllroml*.
We trust the Legislature will pause liefure it
authorizes any more State indebtedness in the
way of aiding railroads. Under the provisions
of State Aid Acts already passed, the State may
be saddled with a great deal more debt than she
can well carry; and the people are in no condi
Uon to sustain heavy taxation. And for what ?
Ask any railway experts abont the enterprise*
already projected nndcr State aid bills, and you
will get but one answer. The most of them
will never be run for any length of time—if
constructed; and with few exoeptior.H, Uie
ultimate security of the Bute will resolve itself
into the mere rails, roiliog stock and other ap
pliances which can be carried off and sold at
public venduo for a song.
At least Ibis is what wa have boen told over
and over again by disinterested men acquainted
with the subject. And admitting that these
railways might be ran on their receipts, still
they would be vslaeless, ss security or property
unless they could lie run to profit. A railway
which barely pays expenses is no security to the
State, nor will it bo of much benefit to the peo
ple. It will only break their necks and help to
confaao their finances.
Meanwhile, a dark cloud of pubtledebl is cov.
erir-g the horizon of the future, and threatening
the direst oonsequences to Georgia. We im
plore the Legislature to dimovrage, rather than
give new impetus, to these unpromising invest
ments. Few railways in Georgia tu going to
pay heavy dividends in the fntnre, and far bet
ter employment of capital can be mode than in
increaHing tbo number just now. Legislators
of Georgia, we call npon yon to arrest any far
ther descent into the abyss of debt. Don’t en
slave your children by oppressive texaUon to
pay interest on bonds for which neither yon nor
they era show any valuable consideration, what
ever.
•Seven Dollars a Day.
Wo hope the Senate will not agree to the
seven dollars a day, and three dollars for every
twenty miles of travel programme laid down by
the Honso last Satnrday. It is too ranch by at
least two dollars, and tho three dollars for every
twenty miles travel is entirely too much. No
railway in Georgia charges more than five cents
a mile, while on some of them the rale is less.
Four cents a wile is perhaps tho avenge rate
for Georgia, even including local fares. Why,
then, ahonld the people pay members of the
Legislature fifteen oents a mile, when the lat
ter only pay five cents at the highest, thus
making a clear profit of ten oents on every
mile travelled ? It seems to ns that actual trav
eling expenses by the nearest ronte, ate all that
members are entitled to, and we are very snre
those who foot tho bills are Rnsnimoasly with
us on that point.
We are equally sure that they will join ns in
onr protest against the seven dollar per diem.
All of ns made, and with reason, ranch ado over
the nine dollars per diem of the last Legislature,
denouncing it as criminally extravagant, and it
was expected that the present one would, in
fixing its pay, utter an emphatic protest against
the condnot of its predecessor. A redaction
of only two dollars a day, and retaining the same
mileage, is not very emphatic according to onr
notions. We call it mild, rather. We shall be
greatly disappointed if this matter is not recon
sidered and finally settled npon a basis more
consistent with the principles of sound econo
my so nrgently required to be practiced in the
present condition of our finances, and which
the people expect and will demand of their rep
resentatives to carry out.
A Tlilr.sly Nmil.
Tbo New York Sun states that when l’roai-
dent Grant was in Connecticut be had a taste of
salted shad, and it had such aa effect upon his
palate that ho ordered a barrel for consumption
at the White Honse. This fact is mentioned so
that all aspirants for office may know what sorts
of fish to lay in. Shad salts passably well, but
it is far inferior to mackerel or salmon. Tno<
shod is a fish of snch delicate fibre that a largo
quantity of salt fs necessary to core it. Con
sequently it requires so much freshening to fit
it for tbo teblo that there is not much flavor left.
IWbaps, however, tho Snn suggests, that Gen.
Grant intends to use the fish as a provocative,
after the faabion of an honest citizen who de
sired to drink more than he had a natural relish
for, an so resorted to silt fish to produce an
artificial appetite, no was s naval officer, in
command of the old steamer Fulton, and he in-
vited and acquaintance to make a trip with him,
Tbe first da; ont bo had salted fish for break
fast, and it was cooked without being freshened
at all. A pieoe of rock salt, powdcre.l with
Liverpool blown would have been quite as pala
table. The friend tried in vain to swallow it
“Why, Jim,” said he, “how con you eat such
horrible stuff?" “Sir,” replied tho Captain,
have a design in it By eating my fish in that
oondition, I get a thirst on by twelve o’clock
that I would not take ten dollars for.”

High and Low.—A correspondent of the
Boston Journal, writing from Saratoga, relates
tho folio*iug incident:
Among our visitens ia a young clergvman.
Us is smart and has hi* eye* o|»-n. He is i
churchman and will make his mark. An inci.
dent will illnstrata this. His ooUegechom is
settled in the Baptist ministry. Our church
friend mmdo a call on his cbnm. ItwasSatnr-
dsy, and he proposed to spend Sunday with his
old associate. lie waa made welcome but with
the least bit of embarraaament that he did not
fail to observe. At length the Biptiat brother
spoke: T should bo delighted to have you
preach for me to-morrow; bat the fact ia it is
onr commuuion. We have it directly after onr
morning service. It would be very awkward,
you know, for yon to preach for me, and then
go ont with the nnregenentes; for by the rules
of our church, you, not being baptized, cannot
oommnno with ns.’ The churchman laughed,
and said, ‘Oh! don't bo uneasy; I will preach
for yon. But were I forty times baptized, I could
not sit dowo to yonr table*; for by the rales of
our church, you know yon are not ordained, and
cannot administer the ordinances at all.' Aod
so be preached, and at the close went ont to
dinner, while the saints sat at tbe table.”
The Count! Taxes.—In reference to the re.
qnirement of United States currency for c run-
taxes hereafter, we are informed that it is
consequent npon the fact that the remaining
county claims must be met in that currency.
Up to tbe point that tbe local currency could
be used it waa taken; bnt as both State and
oounty taxes were reoeired in it, while the
State would only motive greenback*, the limit
was soon reached. Bankable money is now de
manded to meet the debta duo by the oonnty
