Telegraph & Messenger. WEDNESDAY MORNING. NOV. 29, W7I. Bibb Connljr PlMinUe Meeting- A meeting of U»« Pemoeracy of Bibb county Will bo bobl ot tbo new Court-boose, on Satur- day next, December 2d, at eleven o’clock, a. jt , for the purpose of appointing delegates to tbo Ailanta Gubernatorial Convention. Thomas Habdeham, Chairman Executive Committee. 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: Rates to Geoboia.—The Iron Mountain nil- road yesterday entabliabed tbo following tarifiT of rales to Fort Gaioea and Georgetown, Ga., and Enfanla, Ala., via Macon only: First class • I 65; second $1 .18: third #1 10; fourth 09c; fifth 77c: flour in sacks 8.1c; fionr, corn meal, hominy, apples and onions, 91 34; boot and pork $2 to. The Gbaud Duke at Savannah.— An Annap olis correspondent of the New York Ilcrsld, writing while the Russian Grand Duke was there annonnoea bis futnro movements, thus : After resting himself hero a short lime, the Prince end bis attendants will sail for Savannah, Ga., where they will remain a few days and thence depart to Havana. The Prince will prob ably remain either in the United Stales or in Cnba nntii tbo middle or closo of the month of January, 1872, wheu tho Svetlana will sail for the Mediterranean Sea, landing the Grand Duke at one of the Honthern European ports, wbcuoe he will travol l.y rail to 8L Petersburg. Tho other vessels of the fleet now hare will leave tho imperial |Nirty either at Savannah or Ha vana, and will sail around Cape Horn diroot for the Amoor River, where they are ordored to join the Russian squadron in thoeo waters. Illegal Suite Aid I limits. 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 where the credit of the State has been loaned railroad companies in disregard of tbo conatiln tional provisions, and in violation of the tame, whether by tho isaniug to said companies of bonds of this Stele, nr by placing tbo indorse ment of the State npon Ibe Ponds of said com panics, said bonds and indorsement of tho State to leaned, end nude in violation of the law, are without binding force npon the State, and should be declared null and void, was taken np, 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. What Thei Eat st the Fins Avenue Hotel bvkbt Dst, and What It Costs.—“Eli Perkins' baa been noeing around in this tavern, inter viewing the steward as to how much provender ia daily stowed sway by his guests, and prints the result cf his ques' innings in tho Commercial Advertiser. It sercis three barrels of floor day U the tuual allowance, and that the yearly bill is #8,434.

Gro ceries ere reckoned at #40,000, and beef, flab and vegetables at #210,000 per annum The whole expense of marketing ia #373,000 per an- uum. It seems rather strange that it should be eo, bnt aooording to this staUmcnt butter coats three times as much as fionr, milk #2,000, oys ten #3.000, and eggs #5,000 more. 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 manipulating purposes, the end and aim where- of waa to (trengtbra the Radiaal party. It ia cumbrous, expenarva, and does not at all answer the alleged purposes of its creation. It bam however, enabled some elientlees attorneys who did not near make bo h ends meet out of tho profits of their profession, to eke out a tolerable living. Perhaps this may have some- thing to do with the opposition to its atmlition that has developed itself among some of the 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 m»ny young lawyers in the House, and the talk of hard times among even the most Ftusperons of the profession, just now, is very Cattain Bacob’s Btebch.—We find this gen- t.omaL 8 speech in favor of passing the election bill over Conley’s veto, in the Atlanta Constitu tion, of yesterday, and will publish it on the outside of tomorrow. Usoe. i lUaitroog|ir . gument, and reflect, great credit upon tho au thor. Ho has taken dcaervedlj high among the foremost men of tto Honae, and fulfilled every expectation formed by hisfriend*. 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.” Bill to authorize Cobb o.uuty to mss Is build a Conrt-hons». pAwed BiU to authorize tho Ordinary of (Isiuptioll county to into bonds to aid in building a Conrtbon-o.

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.
