World thinka that the preparations are more in
the nalnro of a war upon the Treasury.
Don't Drrucan.—We see a bin ia before
the Legialatnre to incorporate the town of
Eatonton, in Snmter county. Why should our
friends insist on two towns of that name in the
State. It will lead to poetoffloe confusion. The
world i* fall of names—take some other.
Tnourm a 8am.— B. B. IlaQ, druggist of
this city, has received a complete line of garden
seeds from Thorbum, of New York. Those who
have been in the habit of using Thotborn's seeds
know bow reliable they are. Yon can depend
on j oat each a stand as yon plant for, which is a
great economy in gardening, as well as a great
satisfaction.
Fine's FcitnuL—Tbe New York papers of
Tuesday are filled with details of the funeral
obsequies of Colonel Fisk, whose remains were
removed from New York to Brattle boro’, Ver
mont, bis native plaee, for Interment Overs
hundred thousand people participated as wit
nesses or actors in the solemn pageant The
demonstrations of popular sorrow were remark-
Tub Srasisx Was.—The New York Herald of
Tuesday. thinka our difficulties with Spain smell
of gunpowder, and diaeonraes at length of war
ships, fortifications, batteries and torpedoes—
manifest destiny—the acquisition of Cuba, and
so on. As lha Herald is now in position of
Grant's next friend, be may know something
about what ia going on at Court At all events,
the present aspect of home affairs does not rail
General Grant, and, gentlemen, there mast be
a change. _
Gabsotbo.— And a: caking of gardening, it
la now time that so-called English peas and
Irish potatoes were in the ground. Of pees,
plant always the wrinkled varieties—for they
are of much finer flavor. Daniel O'Rourke, for
early, is a very satisfactory sort—and for a later
pea, Champion of England, Napoleon and Eu
genie, are fine. Drill with a spade about its
depth and width. Loosen the subsoil et the
bottom of the drill with a grabbing hoe. Plant
your sticks in the centre of lha drill by a true
line; let them be five or six feet long, and
bosby. Fill your drill half full of well rotted
manure and good top soil. Scatter your pete
liberally right among the sticks. Two quarts
will sow about a hundred feet. Cover to the
surfaoe and your crop will give you no further
trouble than an occasional working. The sticks
will be firm in the ground, and the growth will
be luxuriant beyond that aet down in tbe North-
era books; and fur this reason tbe stioksshould
be six feet high, s j tbst tbe vines msy not be
Injured by the winds, or by picking. It is also
a good plan to mulohthe peas with rotten leaves
or rotted straw, which will prevent firing from
drouth. Pea rows should be six feet apart. Of
dwarf varieties, which need no sticks, there are
the Old Tom Jhupib, McLean's Gem, Princess
Royal, Bishop's Long Pod and many others,
which grow about a foot high, but we never
thought tho orop paid very well for tbe planting.
Peas are the most oostly, bnt most delicions of
garden vegetables. They are troublesome to
plant and troublesome to gather and prepare
for the table, bnt tbe plan of planting we have
indicated, ia the cheapest and most satisfactory
of any we have tried.
^As for potatoes, mellow yonr land deeply with
the plow or spade—forrow as closely as yon can
make deep and broad furrows. Cat yoar pota
toes and drop them two feet apart—manure and
cover highly with earth, and thon fill np yonr
farrows well with rotten leaves and decaying
trash of almost any (fertilizing) character. The
beat potato Is the early Goodrich, and the next,
perhaps, early Iloee.
Lettnoe and oabbogts may now be trans
planted. Bplnaeh which was town in Septem
ber or October should also be thinned and
worked, and asparagus beds eleared, mellowed
and fertilised.
Tlie Pardon of Itlodgctt
For larceny of tbe State Road property, before
trial and oonriotion, will be found in another
part of Ibis edition. It speaks volumes. It
shows that Conley was in the full line of suc
cession to Bollock—it indicates very clearly
what wonVl have been tbe whole polioy of his
administration could he have “held on"—and
It is s oonfcaaton of guilt by Blodgett. How
innob it will avail bim we aro unable to aay,
bnt the gTant of power to pardon and reprieve
Is very full in oar Constitution. Tho people
of Georgia msy well be thankful when they are
delivered from this reign of frsnd.
Bat the fact is, as “fall and free" as is this
pardon, it don't cover Blodgett's necessities.
He la not the man to rest on the villainy he has
done; and to oover his oase, Conley's pardon
should have had a prospective action—it should
not merely have pardoned him for all that “he
did then and there embezzle, steal, secrete and
fraudulently take and oarry away,” bat also for
all he might hereafter embezzle, secrete, steal
and fraudulently take and oarry away, np to
the termination of hia mortal career—for just
so long as Blodgett lives we fear he will em
beaale, steal, secrete and frandnlently take and
carry away, against the statute in aueh ease
made and provided, and tbe peaoe and dignity
of the State.
Dcntlt or Colonel Trunk Hill.
This gentleman breathed hla last at his rest
donee In this oounty on Tuesday night laat. Af
fable in deportment, onltivated in manners, he.
leaves a host of friends to mourn hts untimely
death.
His remains were carried to Athens, Georgia,
hia early home, for interment.
We find the above announcement in the Ea-
faula News, of Thnrday. We beg to add our
regrets to the many that will be felt by Colonel
Hill's numerous friends, not only in Georgia,
but all over the South. We knew him well and
e deemed him very highly. He eras onr friend,
and on many oeoaiions testified the strength and
sinoerity of his good will. Some of the pleas
antest momenta memory cherishes were spent
in his society, and aa we write, the many weary
hours around the campfire he has beguiled by
aiory, jest and repartee coma trooping back to
onr remcihbrance to do honor to hi* shade, and
speak peaoe to hia ashes. He had faults, but
they were surfaos defeats. His virtues had
their birth and home in tho heart, and were the
aeqnenoes of a noble spirit, a kindly, frank,
generous temper, and a soul to which no appeal
for oharity and sympathy was ever In vain.
In early lifo Cob Hill served with distin
guished credit aa assistant surgeon in the Fed
eral Kavy, and afterwards was one of the edit-
ora and proprietors of the Athens Banner. Du
ring the srar he was a Captain and afterwards
Uejor in the first regiment of Georgia Regulars,
and ness the eloee was made a Colonel by Mr.
Davis—one of the last acta of hia official life.
He had,in the army and out of it,hoats of friends
who will join ns in grief for his death, and say
with ns: God rest bis soul!
Acting Governor Conley's Message
Wss placed in the hands of onr compositors at
a late hour on Thursday, and we had no oppor
tunity either to read or comment up it, or spaoe
to print what wc might have to say. We are
glad that the Acting Governor and his friends
found it expedient to abandon the on justifiable
attempt to hold on to an ex officio tenure of
cieor.llve powers in defiance of the Constitu
tion, and long after the official term hid-ex
pired which would have been, in any case, the
sole ground-work for exercizing the powers of
Governor.
The so-called reconstructed States of the
South, Including Georgia, have furnished so
many and such audacious illustrations of official
tenacity In defiance of the constitution and law
that thisjetirement is, to some extent, s recog.
nition of reviving popular sensibility to such
usurpations. Had the Acting Governor met
with any encouragement from the powers in
Washington to hold on, nobody doubts that he
would htTO held. Bnt ho received none. The
law was too plain, end it was too obvious that
no more political capital was to be made by
Federal nullification and revolution in tbe
Southern States. The record of the latter is s
stench in tbe public nun.ri!.-. which lx comes
piore off (ri'-ive the more * mi Jolt'd will!—no
that, at the laat, we see the administration
fighting sfay even in Louisiana, where two hos
tile Radical banditti hold the commonwealth
between them in a condition of quasi aril war,
and the anbjeat of rival spoliations, as Jobntnd
Simon did the city of Jerusalem, during the
Roman seige.
Finding no encouragement in Wsahington
and certain that bis attempt to exercise the of-
floe of Governor most end in a farce, Mr. Con
ley wisely resolved to let go, and we are sure
tbe Democratic papers and politicians would
have permitted bis coarse and motives to re
main unquestioned had he not thrown them
upon the defensive by a needless impeachment
of the justioe and legality of their ocrarse. He
says the election was in “direct violation of
the Constitution”—we know, on the contrary
that the Constitution expressly empowered the
Leglatare to provide for the election. He adds
seme reasoning on the alleged defects of the
election bill, as supplemented by his tactics to
defeat the amendatory act by ignoring the vote
of two-thirds of tbe Legislature to extend the
session—by which be says the amendatory bill
failed for want of Executive sanction. It is a
forlorn, bnt not an extraordinary case of usurp
ation which aetki to fortify itself by its own
wrong. No Executive sanction was required to a
resolution passed by two-thirds of both bouses
to extend tbe session; for it demanded a vote
which would have overruled any executive veto,
and the amendatory bill in question was passed
by the same vote. The Acting Governor cannot
fortify hit oase by his own wrongs, and, in fine,
it ia by no means graoefnl to see the accidental
incumbent of an office fighting the popular will
aa clearly expressed by two-thirds of a newly
elected Legialatnre by mere chaff and dost of
hia own blowing. •
And then aa to the “insignificant minority"
which elected Col. Smith as his sneoesaor, Mr.
Conley knows that it ia morally impoarible to get
ont half a popular vote in an election where
there is no euntest. More than half will refuse
to take the trouble to go to the polls, where
their votes make no practical difference in the
result. Had the opposition furnished a rival
candidate aa it was urged to do from Washing
ton, they would have had no erase to complain
about the number received by Col. Smith.
But to wind np his special pleading, Mr.
Conley concludes by referring the whole sub
ject matter to the magnanimity and discretion
of the Legislature, rad promises to submit to
its decision. He thinka his tender of harmony
and forbearanoe waa not met in a correspond
ing spirit. We think, on the contrary, that the
General Assembly, under all the circumstances,
displayed great moderation and forbearance.
It was true there was some little exacerbation
at the heel of the session, bnt it grew ont of
tho evident indications of a purpose by Mr.
Conley to hold on to bis office in defiance of
law. Tbe General Assembly felt that the crisis
demanded a change in the administration. Tbe
finances of tbe Slate were going to rain.
Fraud and malversation were cropping ont on
all aides, and their fist dnty to the people re-
quired that they should exhaust every legal
power to secure s searching investigation,
prompt measures of redress, snathe most rigid
public economy. That Mr. Conley should re
tire, is made dear enough in (his very mes
sage, wherein be justifies Bullock and pleads
for the fraudulent State aid bonds. And it is
made pre-eminently clear in ths scandalous
pardon of Blodgett, on the intercession of ex-
Governor Bollock, for the offence of larceny of
the pnblio property, before trial, on two several
indictments. Surely, if any thing were need
ed to show that Conley's administration was
bnt a successor of Bullock's administration in
tbe same line, this scandalous pardon before
trial and conviotion, would do it. Such a doc
ument will obliterate the smallest donbt about
the policy of the speediest possible deliverance
of the State from such corrupt influences.
As the financial liabilities of the State will
now be officially investigated, not mnch impor
tance will be attached to Mr. Conley Vexhibit of
them. He reports the actual liabilities con-
traded under Gov. Bullock at $4,800,0000, and
the contingent State aid liabilities at $7,083,400.
Very little of the latter, we apprehend, can be
reoognized by any consoientions Legislature,
bnt we will not antidpate the result of legal in-
veatigation. Thank God, the reign of corrup
tion, fraud and extravagance in Georgia oamo
to a close yesterday.
GEORGIA FRESH.
A portion of tbe people of the 17th district of
Thomas county, and a portion of the people of
Deeatnr county living near that district, want a
new oounty. We sincerely hope they won't get it.
We dip this from the Atlanta San of yester
day:
Pardon Rumors —It is ramored, and gener
ally credited—though not positively known—
that pardons have been granted to nearly every
one against whom charges have been preferred
in connection with Foster Blodgett’s State Road
administration—I. P. Harris, Treasurer; E. F.
Blodgett, General PnrehasiDg Agent; James
Mnllin, Master Machinist, W. D. R. Millar, of
Savannah, dealer in railroad supplies, etc.
Aaron Alpeoria Bradley has filed his applica
tion for admission to the bar of Chatham
connty.
The Savannah papers of Friday note the
death at Lake City, Florida, on the 26 th inst.,
of Chas. J. Price, 2d assistant engineer, United
States revenue service.
A little girl, daughter of Mr. Richardson, of
Savannah, was shockingly homed on Wednes
day by her clothing taking fire. She will,
however, reoover it is thought.
We find the following annonneament in the
Savannah Republican of Thursday:
To the Readers of the Republican.—Not
having completed my arrangements as oontem
E lated, and desiring to have the Bepnblioan
ibor under no disadvantage in accomplishing
its great purpose as an old and favored organ of
the people, I have transferred my interest in
the same to Messrs. Hardee A- Scudder, by
whom it will hereafter bo published.
Major Obarlea S. Hardee rad Mr. Henry W.
Scudder are natives of Savannah, and both well
known. Major Hardee enjoys a high reputa
tion as a business man and a gentleman. Mr.
Scndder is a graduate of Princeton, and, thongh
young, is reoognized for bis sterling worth and
character.
In their hand, I hope great success will at
tend this time-honored journal, and I cordially
oommend it to the support of my friends in
Georgia. Wm. A. Reid.
Colonel C. T. Goode, Democrat, has been
elected Representative in the Legialatnre from
Sumter eonnty by 500 majority. He fills the
vacancy caused by the death of Mr. Wright
Brady a short time since.
Dr. J. N. Simmons, an old rad prominent
citizen of Atlanta, died Thursday night
We qnote the following from the Hawkins-
vQle Dispatch, of Thursday:
From Texas.—After an absence of about two
years in Texas, onr former fellow-citizen, Capt.
Norman McDuffie, returned here a few days
ago on a visit to his many old friends in this
snd adjoining oounties. He is as hearty and
robust as we ever saw him, and old Time seems
to have been exceedingly lenient in hia dealings.
He says many good words in behalf of Texas,
and like* his new home well. The State has
been cursed with Radical rule and negro militia
for some time, bnt the election which takes
plaos in the spring, he thinks, will be a grand
Democratic victory, and thus give the people
an honest and satisfactory administration.
Fcnnt.—The editor of the Houston Home
Journal wrote a new year's address to his sub
scribers snd advertising patrons. The closing
sentence reads as follows: “We have a large
sapply of muscle and energy, friends; all we
want now is a little backing from yon.” Be pa
tient, Waterman, they'd keep backing. The
first year's credit keeps plenty of them bathing.
Why didn’t yon make them pay in advance.
The Savannah News, of Thiasday, has the
following:
Death cr Oisx tr tee Participants in tbe
Valdosta Affair—From passengers by the
Golf train, we learn that Mr. Riley DeLoach,
one of the participants in the shooting affray
which ooearred at Valdosta on Saturday last,

brother, Hemph DeLoach. who was shot at the
same time, is in a very precarious situation.
A Missino Ordinary—Tircxx HcndexdThod
sand Dollars Wonts or Brunswick Bonds
“Gone where the Woodbine Twtneth.”—
About four weeks ago a meeting of some cf
the citizens of Brunswick was held for the
purpose of obtaining from Ordinary J. F. Roe
a report relative to the disposition which he
had made cf three hundred thousand dollars
worth of Brunswick bonds: The Ordinary
stated that they were deposited in New York
banks. The citizens referred to, appointed
gentlemen to proceed to New York and asoe
rain wiethe- the statement of ths Ordinary
was correct. The gentleman hastened to
New York and asi-erUined that only ten thou
sand dollars worth of the bonds were deposited
in New York bonks, and those ia the individual
name of Roe.
Three weeks ago Roe, who is a Massachu
setts man, was in Savannah, bnt since that
time his been miaing.
Texts G. Cambell Black, cf Dabien on the
Rampaor—Hr Holds Indignation Meetings,
and Proposes to Diet the Law —The sboTe
name d negro in well known throughout the Sta'e
sa being identified .with a turbulent clots of ne
groes who live in McIntosh oounty, and have
their headquarters in Darien.
Last year Darien bad a »fc t- Mayor and a
negro board of eight Councillors, who not only
ruled Darien, bnt attempted to exercise control
over a large portion of Mclnio.b county.—
Among other illegal acts resorted to by this
board to perpetuate their it fl tenoe, was tbe
passage by them of an order imposing an inor
dinate lax on the owners of property, especialy
white owners, by which they partially succeeded
in raising the sum of eight thousand dollars,
rad would have raised the whole amount bad
not the white people, some ef them Northern
i, obtained an injunction restraining Camp
bell and others of the board, in the illegal ex
ercise of authority. Since that time Campbell
has had no friendly feelings for the white trash
of McIntosh connty, snd has endeavored by as
sembling armed negroes to intimidate tbe
Judges of the Inferior Courts in that vicinity.
On one occasion when he was arrested and
brought before one of the Judges, he had sum
moned three hundred blacks, who with guns,
pistols and dubs surrounded tbe Court.
The Judge, however, gave a decision adverse
to Campbell, and stated that the prisoner might
apply for a writ of habtas corpus. The armed
negroes thereupon advanced with their weapons
towards the Judge, who would have been killed,
but Campbell waived them back, and said,
“Not yet, not yet; this is not the time.”—
Campbell obtained a writ of habeas corpus and
tbe case was finally disposed of by a mulatto
official, and tool of Campbell.
At the recent meeting of the Georgia Legis
lature a law was passed appointing seven white
Commissioners from Uclntoeh to take charge of
the official books rad papers held by Campbell
and bis oosdjutors, and to exercise the func
tions of Inferior Judge.
Last week and tbe week previous, Campbell
held mass meetings of negroes throughout
McIntosh oounty, and he counsels them to resist
by foroe of arms the authority of the Commis
sioners. Tbe law referred to was not signed by
Conley, for at that time he was refusing to rec
ognize the Legislators.
The negroes of Uclntoab, it will be seen, are
in an excited oondition. We understand the
whites are organizing and determined to execute
the law.

Worthy cf Tiutatios.—We wish every boy

suing their stndies. Some of them rise at 4

“The Swift Undercurrent.”
The Rev. R. H. Cain (more familiarly known
as Daddy Cain) writes as follows under the
above caption in the Missionary Reoord, of the
5tb instant:
The work which has been done by the politi
cal poltroons in the Republican party in South
Carolina, has been so effectual, the disgust of
the honest men is so complete, that it needs not
tho foresight of a philosopher to discern the ti
dal wave which is sweeping over, and the swift
undercurrent which is silently undermining tbe
old corrupt fabric which deserves to be tom
down. The constant and nnbeard of mis
managements in government, the cormorant
avidity with which the people’s earnings have
been devoured, and tho persistency with which
they still cling to the loaves and fishes, warns
the pnblio that, without a strong and united
effort, they will still groan under another two
years of misrule and mismanagement. The peo
ple should begin early to look after their
pnblio servants. We need renovation in coun
ty as well as State affairs, we must overhaul
every elective officer in this county, and in
fact in every county, and examine the accounts
of every incumbent, to sea whether they have
administered honestly their offices in onr coun
ty. We begin with our County Commission
ers, and will scrutinize their condnot, and will
report to the pnblio all information for the
pfcple. Wo shall show the condition of onr
public roads, the amount of improvements not
mode, and the cost of not keeping the high
ways in order; wo shall endeavor to find ont all
the fat contracts, if any, which have been en-.
joyed; also the check system, which is tbe curse
of the period. We shall not forget the damna
ble system of highway robbery by the present
hell-hatched measures of banditti, known as
Trial Justices, in this connty, and we will de
mand the abolition of this system, and claim
the election by the people, according to the
Constitntion of the State, of justices of the
peace, and tho fixing of a specific salary, by
law, and thns deliver the people from this bur
den upon society.
It is time that the intelligence of the State

A demure looking chap hailed a charcoal
pedler with the query, “Have you got char
coal in your wagon?” “Yes, sir,” said the ex
pectant driver, stopping his horses. “That’s
right,” observed the demnre chap, with an ap
proving nod; always tell the truth and people
will respect yon!” and he hurried on, much to
the regret of the pedler, who was getting out
of the wagon to look tor a brick.

OBITUARY.
Died at his residence in Jones county on the
4th inst., Roland Rcs», Sr., who had reached
the ripe age $f hia 87 th year, and for many
long years a peaceful citizen of thi3 county. A
native of tho State of North Carolina—wa3
bom back in the good old days, on the 15th
day of October, 1785. Came to Georgia in tho
early years of the 19th century and settled
In said county, near the plaos where his body
now slumbers in the dost. He lived a peaceful,
quiet life with all who knew him; was always
a true and faithful husband, parent and friend.
A good man, a true and substantial citizen,
a true Christian, and for over forty years a con-
tinned member of the Baptist Chnrch, and
died in the firm belief and assurance of a bless-
ed immortality beyond the cold and unfriend-
ly grave. Ue was willing and ready to go;
had no fear to meet his fate or see his Master’s
face. He has gone, and forever; and we hear
no footsteps fall npon the threshold, no prayer
at mom or eve. We feel 'tis hard that he
should die; yet, 'tis sweet to know he died to
live beyond this mortal clay.
