The C uthbert Appeal and OnnelfeSi
We were not a little anrprised, and pained
also, to note the tenor of two articlee which ap
peared in the last nnmber of the Appeal, re
flecting npon onr statement* concerning the
itaagee of the late epldemlo in Cnthbert.
Tbe ''reports" published wore derived from
*y*-witneeeee end several letters received from
pre minent citizens. One letter we itw contained
tbe noawa of tieenty who had died. We had no
reaeon to donbt tbe intelligence, and felt the
doeereet sympathy for that Buffering comma
nlty. God know* at least one of the editors had
a paiofnl personal interest in ascertaining the
tree Mate of the caso. It was Dr. Toombs who
T s< said to have buried hie wife, three children
and two servants, ell on the same lot, and re
ported ea bis household.
One letter mentioned that the schools had
•amended, and wo had no reason to donbt tbe
far'., especially as a note from liev. Ur. McGe-
hM mentioned that ho htd fifty-four boarders
li>re (after tbo close of the epldemlo) and all
nfi well. From whleh it was inferred that the
tx.rdaae of hie school had boon resumed, and
be wished tbe fact to be made pnblio.
Tbe remetka of the Appeal were so utterly at
variance with taato and courtesy (we exonae tbe
bad«polling) that nothing bat a deaire to be re
lieved from the lmpatation of Intentional error
hu iudoeed this explanation.
A. to onr own sad viaitation, it can be truly
mid that every death from meningitis or small
pox occurring In Msoon has been published in
these colonies. Pat we shell not quarrel with
tb. authota of the terrifio rumors oonm ruing
our any merialiiy, haring ever in remembrance
the tale of the three cross and Falataff's men in
Pl.'kr.iu.
I lorltln Fnmlfng Act.
Tbe late Legislature of Florida passed an act,
approved February 21st, which authorizes
f 1,000,000 of nntsxable thirty year six percent,
coupon bonds, to be dated January 1, 1873,
Iniaiest payable seml annnslly in gold, at New
Fork, or at tbe office of the State Treesnrer;
tbe principal to be payable in New York,
three mill tax ia to be lovied each year for the
inlereat, and a one mill tax for tho nltimate re
demption of the principal, tbe proceeds of these
taiee to be rabjest to no deduction for fees, to
be kept aeperete from all other revenue, and
bald by the Comptroller and Treasnrer os trus
tee* for tbe bondholders; only United States
money end coupons of theso bonds will be re
ceived for this tax. Tbe sinking fund thus
provided is to be inves'ed In these bonds at not
moro than ptr, or in Uallod States bonds at
msrket value.
Tbe Tallahawee Floridian says that an amend
ment offered in tbe Assembly and adopted by
both nausea, providing that no tax shall be
levied under the act nntil at least one-fourth of
the bonds tre successfully negotiated, is left
out of tbe copy published “officially.” This ia
not the first time elnce tbe war that important
sols of tbe Legislature of Florida bsvo boen
garbled in the bands of Exeontlve offioers.
A udt had to bo oonveyed ont of tho room

Tint Courier-Journal ha. tho following pood
once:

for $150." We should hate mightily to be
foroed to give a dollar and flfiy cents for the
min who bonght that rooster.

Coiialy and City Dtbla.
The New York Daily Balletic, of Iasi Solar
day, has a very alarming and suggestive article
upon the pablic debt of the counties, cities,
towns and villages of that great State. It seems
that s commission of inquiry into this matter,
appointed by the Constitutional Convention
that State now in session at Albany, has discov.
ered that these counties and corporations have
created, a bonded indebtedness aggregating
t214,31C,CSG!
The purposes for which this Smmesue debt
was crested are various—aid to railroads—erect
ing public buildings—appropriated to support
the war on tho Southern States—for road and
streets—waterworks and fire apparatus and for
parks—the latter item alone constituting over
eighty-four millions of this vast debt.
This local debt represents ten and a half per
oent. of the assessed property valne of the
State, and with the State debt and New York'
share of the national debt aggregates over $487,-
000,000, which is twenty-three per cent of the
taxable values of the State and represents the
sum of $444 for every adult male citizen of
New York!
Under these circumstances the Constitutional
Convention is abont to incorporate some pro
vision Into the fundamental law of New York
to restrain this debt-creating mania. Tbe Bui
le'.in Bays:
It seems like a libel on the common sense
and intelligence of the people that it should be
necessary to adopt measures to prevent them
from ruining themselves by debt. Bat in this
case the homely old adage applies with peculiar
foroe, “What is everybody's business is no
body's business.” The many, intent on their
individual bnslneva or pleasure, are indifferc'-.t
to the schemes of a few interested persons who
have money to make or “axes to grind” by ob
taining a vote to bond the town or connty. The
day of payment appears far off, and even when
it oomes there will be nothing to pay—“tho
work” wilt have paid for itself.
In this way the local debts are piled np nntil
it benomes abaolntely neoessary to restrict or
prohibit localities from running into debt. Bow
this can bo beat effec<ed is now noder conside
ration by th6 commission appointed to revise
tbe Constitution of the Slate. In all probability
tbe new Constitution will embody provisions
that will prevent this reckless expenditure
Ohio was nearly bankrupted by a ctansel n the
first Constitution of the State permitting towns
and oonnties to bond themselves for local works
and improvements. Some towns Morted fac
tories ; others invested in bridges snd railroadsJ
but evory one of these enterprises failed, and a
cry of distress arose from tbe farmers, which
led to s change in the Constitution absolutely
prohibiting local indebtedness for any purpose.
The necessity for this State adopting a simi
lar rule may be inferred from tbe ftet that of
tbo ono bnndred and fifty-seven villages in the
Ststo which report no bonded debt, every one
of them were expressly prohibited from it by
clansos in their charters. And every town
and Tillage authorized to run in debt did so, and
some of them with very little sense or discrim
ination. Tbe process i* still going on at a rapid
pace, and at tbe olose of tbe present year it is
estimated $11.000,000 will be added to tbe local
indebtedness If tbe State, making it amount to
a total of $225,000,000.
We do not imagine tbo condition of New York
In this psrticnlar is any worse than that of tbe
other States of the Union. The faet is, tho war
thoroughly demoralized the thrifty habits of tbe
people, and transformed the latter into desper
ate hap-bazard speculators. Suoh vast sums of
money were squandered that the day of small
and steady acquisitions and Improvements was
despised, and yet evory man’s common Bonse
ought to tell him that there is no other mode
of healthful progress. Bat overybody was bent
on making a fortune by a great stroke, and “de
veloping the resouroea” of town, oily, connty
and State by magnificont financiering. The re
sult has been signal defeat all round, and a
mortgage on the patient labor of a generation.

Tnx H'ipthkbw r. ca —It U not probable the
President will volt the Sintb nntil order is re
stored in even S'ate. One of tbe principal
ob j seta in it -e p m iba first invitation was to
gratify a !au fan e djaire to go among a people
whose oondition i* much more prosperont now
than it was four years ago, and to evince by
this visit his determination to be the President
ef the whole nation.— Washington Republican,
80.
That their “oondition la muoh more prosper
ous than it was four years ago” will be news to
meat of the Southern States. We In Georgia,
U ia true, are better off, having ronted the bri
gands—Grant’* pets and friends—who hod
usurped our offices and stolen almost every
thing they could lay their hands npon, but Tery
few other Southern States can say the same.
Aad that Georgia is tbe exception no thank3 to
Groat. Bis administration has been, from first
to last, onr bitter, unrelenting enemy.
Tnx Fionr Ovza thzMacoxPost Omcx.—A
Washington dispatch to the Atlanta Constitu
tion, of Saturday, states that B. B. Whiteley,
Henry P. Farrow, Andrew Sloan, J. C. Freeman
*udE. A. Belcher, oalled npon Postmaster
General Cresawell on Thursday. The object of
the visit was to urge upon the Department the
neoeseity for the removal of E. Bond, from his
preeeat piaition aa Postmaster at Macon, Go.,
and to appoint the aforesaid E. A. Belcher in hia
place. Mr. Creawell, boweTer, would have
roihicg »! all to do with the matter, and refer-
red them to Grant.
Jeff Long, who supports Bond, saw the Pres
ident later in the day in Bond's behalf, and eras
Msured by Grant that no removal would be
tuade In that diitriot, except for oause. Jeff in-
tended to call npon the President again, and ar-
flu* that, since Farrow and Belcher both hold
official position in Georgia, they should not be
hire lobbying for offices for their friends.
Can safely be undertaken on borrowed capital.
Bolt of them miscarry npon ordinarily safe
mercantile conditions; but failure is well nigh
certain when tbe fruits of sucocsa aro bargained
away ahead and a heavy interest-bearing debt
is encountered long before the enterprise can
return a single penny. Tbe whole business is
mere kite flying, bat the result of It is bonnd to
be sad and sober truth.
Oar Msoon city debt represents twelve per
cent, of oar tsx list, which is above the average
of that in New York. Add the other itemB, and
the sum total of onr pnblio indebtedness would
be oonaidorably above twenty-five per cent, of
all oar taxable property.
But Msoon is in a condition scarcely worse
than other oltlea of Georgia. In this edition it
will be seen that ex-Govemor Brown remon
strates with Atlanta on tho matter of increasing
the debt of that oity, declaring that neither he
nor any other large real estate holder will Invest
any farther in city property unless the rege for
creating pnblio debt is restrained. It is time
that towns, cities, counties. States and people
should stop short off—for with but a small in
crease to the debt burdens, the work of recovery
will be impracticable.
Tbe lYesteia anti Atlantic Railroad.
As several of onr Slate exchanges have been
publishing damaging statements of tbe dilapi
dated oondition of this great highway, it affords
ns mnch pleasure to say a word per contra. A
gentleman who has been much engaged in
railroading, and is also a skillful and practical
mechanic, gives ns the following information s
Since the occupation of the road by tbe lessees,
a very large portion of the track has been re-
laid with heavy new rails, and tho work still
progresses at the rato of nine thousand dollars
expenditure per month. At the present mo
ment, a numerous foroe is engaged in repairing
those portions which have not yet been reached.
It abonld be remembered that so utterly wom
ont and ran down was the whole ooncern when
reoeived from Blodgett, that at that very timo
a bill was pending before the Legislature ask
ing for $ GOO,000 to pat it in order. Oar in
formant saya, as a whole, tbe entire line is in
fair condition, and tbe mishaps have been con
fined to those plaoes which the company as yet
have been unable to re-construot. It is no
small undertaking, in tbe full tide of an im
mense transportation bnsinoss, to rebuild en
tirely, without interruption to travel, one hun
dred and forty miles of railroad.
The present season, too, bos taxed tho carry
ing capacity of the road almost to its greatest
extent, while storm after storm, repeated fresh
ets, and a winter remarkable for its severity,
have contributed to retard the progress of out
door labor. For many weeks past an average
of from 250 to 300 cars, heavily laden, have
passed over the road every day, testing and
straining to the utmost every rail, cross-tie and
bridge.
The party oommunicating these facts has re
sided in the vicinity of the road, and had occa
sion very frequently to pass over its entire
length. His statements may be implicitly re
lied upon.
Gzxssors 'Wbitzlzi !—We understand that
the prime mover in the effort to pnt Belcher,
the Augusts octoroon, in the postoffice here, is
Whiteley, the Radical member of Congress from
the Albany district. It is told to us that Belcher
stumped for Whiteley last fall in that district,
and Whiteley beiDg brim-foil and running over
with gratitude, as the average scallawag usually
is, sought to pay the debt this way. Whiteley
don’t want Belcher In Baiabridge or Albany,
because that might not suit some of the few
white allies he has down there. Bat Macon was
another affair. Whiteley is a nice man—a very
nice man, in fact, but nice men sometimes show
their hand in a most verdant style.
A Losnos Fco.— The Pall Mall Gazette says:
It may be said with almost literal truth that
Londoners have not seen daylight this week.
To-day, however, the darkness hss been even
worse than on Monday and Tuesday. Up to
noon it was impossible to dispense with gas snd
candies. On the South side of the Thames the
darkness was excessive. The railway stations
were lighted up exactly as at night. There hss
been no great amount of fog, and traffic has not
been seriously interfered with in the streets, on
the railways, or on the river.

er of the IIon-*; A. H. Leonard, Senator from
Caddo; M. J. Foster, Representative from St.
Mary; O. Hareutae, from Rapides; and Mr.
Yoorhees, Clerk of the Senate.
There is no doubt that these gentlemen were
treated with unwarrantable indignity. They
were arrested on no charge but a genera! order
of Gen. Longstieet, commanding the Kellogg
militia, and were confined in a filthy felons’ cell
at the Central station. Tbe polioe even attempt
ed to search Major Moncure.
Tbe gentlemen were released In abont three
hours, without any trial, and with none of the
usual formalities. Altogether it was a disgrace
ful business.
The McEnery Legislature met this morning
in joint secret caucus at the St. Charles Hotel.
They afterward removed to the St. James Ho

TBTTXO THE rhlSONKtR.
7 he 87 militia captured last night were tried
in the Recorder's Court. Some were released
ou bail, others wero remanded to the parish
prison.
Thera does not appear to be much excite
ment now, and the general verdict is that last
night’* business was badly mtntged. It seems
to be tbe accepted understanding at this hour
that the Kellogg Government ia established be
yond all question. Tbe military support had
jeen given before any outbreak occurred.

Tne Case el Rev. Dr. Huston.
Tbe esse of Dr. L. D. Huston, charged with
lewd conduct, etc., which Is to be investigatid
by the Baltimore Conference of the Methodist
Episcopal Church South, which assembled yes
terday in Trinity Church, corner of Midisc
avenue and Preston street, has not yet been
reached. The conference, at the time of ad
journment yesterday, was engaged in passing
upon the characters of the ministers, whose
names were called as they appeared npon the
roll of the vxrious districts. Dr. Huston's ci
will be taken up when bis namo is reached
The committee over which Rev. Mr. Rodgers
presided, who mtde the preliminary examina
tion into the charges against Dr. Huston will
submit a report wben the case is reached, and
it is understood that Dr. Huston will, through
clerical counsel, insist that the examination
made by Mr. Rodgers’committee was final, and
that tbe action of that committee, which was tc
the effect that the charges were not sustained,
must be accepted by the conference as fici'iy
disposing of tbe matter. The question will be
for the presiding bishop to determine. Dr.
Huston was not present yesterday, and it seems
to be generally understood that' be will not be
present daring the sitting of the conference.—
In the event of his non-appearance in person or
by counsel tbo case will go by default, and the
traverser will be expelled from the ministry.—
A tree bill has been fonnd against Dr. Hn,ton
in tbe criminal court on the charge of adultery,
which is a misdemeanor punishable by fiue in
Maryland. It is asserted bis absence at this
time is due to this cause. In a trial at law wit
nesses against him will be produced, whom the
ecclesiastical court cannot compel to testify.—
As the offense for which Dr. Huston is indicted
in the State court is only a misdemeanor, he
cinno*. be reacbfd by rtqilnlion in another
State. Hence, if he does not choose voluntsri.
ly to appear here, be cannot bo brought to trial
in tho criminal coart.—Baltimore Sun, 8th.
A Perpetual President.
Leo, tbe Washington correspondent of the
Charleston Courier, writing about the inaugu
ration, says:
The first impression made upon all by the un.
precedented magnificence of this inaugural cel
ebration and tbo adulation bestowed npon the
hero of the day is that General Grant is con-
aidered as President for life. The whole pro
ceeding with all its pageantry, and its tnmnitu-
ous cheers for the one man, reminds one of t
coronation. It Is, in fact, a sort of mass con
vention for the renomination of Grant for a
third term. He, himself, it is believed and as
serted by his intimates,has no moreffionbt of bis
third election than he hss of the fact that he
has been twice elected. Nothing is more de
sired by him than a unanimous re-election, and
to accomplish thia he will endeavor to ap
pease, if not to coneiliate, tbe Southern peoplo
now opposed to bim. That be will endeavor to
bring the South to his support there ore be no
doubt.

Tbe Public Schools of Atlanta* %
The National Toacber for March, edited by
Mr. E. E. White, late Sohooi Commissioner for
the State of Ohio, has the following editorial
paragraph npon the pnblio schoolsia Atlanta:
Atlanta, Ga.—In May, 1871, we accepted
the invitation of many leading citizens of At
lanta to deliver a pnblio address on universal
education. Legal provision had been made by
the Legislature, and also by the City Council,
for tho establishment of a pnblio school system,
and a board of edneation had been organized ;
but there was not a pnblic school in the oity,
and most of the thirty or forty private schools,
attended by, perhaps, some 1,200 pnpils, occu-
)ied nnsnitable and poorly famished rooms,
n November, 1871, Mr. B. Mallon, of Savan-
nah entered npon the dnties of the office of eu-
perintendent, and in January, 1872, the pnblio
schools were inaugurated with appropriate ex
ercises. There now lies npon onr table tho
“First Annnal Report of the Board of Educa
tion, for the School Year ending August 31,
1872”—a handsome document of 68 pages.
Opening it we learn that an appropriation of
$75,000 was expended for sites, buildings, re
pairs, and furniture, and that the current ex
penses of the schools for the term (from Janu
ary to July), amounting to over $23,000, were
met by temporary loans, in anticipation of taxes
be collected. This fact indicates the spirit
the Board. Accommodations were provided
for abont 1,500 pupl»s, bnt the first two weeks
closed with 2,261 applicants for admission. Ad
ditional rooms were rented and fornished as
rapidly as possible, and the year closed with an
enrollment of 2,842 pnpils—high schools, 295;
grammar schools, 1,790; colored schools, 767.
lie average number of pupils belonging wss
2,442, and the average number in daily attend
ance, 2,173. Three or four hundred children
were denied admission from want of room, and
the Board now asks for money to erect two more
buildings. The number of teachers employed
was 52. W« rejoice in Ihis auspicious opening
of tbo public schools of Atlanta. Superintend
ent Mallon’s excellent report is aa assurance
that the good work is in competent hands, and
will be pushed forward to a triumphant success.
Broke Down Soon*
At its late session the Florida legislature, or
rather the Radical majority thereof, passed a
called civil rights bill, which gave the man
and brother all sorts of rights in hotels, theatres,
churches, cemeteries, and on railways, steam
boats, etc. How it works the Tallahassee Senti
nel (Radical) tell as follows:
Crvn, Rights.—The first case under the civil
rights bill, passed at the late regular session of
the legislature, was brought before Mr. West,
astice of the peace in this city on Thursday
last. Mr. Charles ia the owner of the skating
rink here, and claims the right of admitting
who he pleases to his institution. Bradley
Robinson, a colored man, wanted to try his
skill ou skates, bnt wa3 refused the privilege,
and ejected from the hall. On his making com
plaint to Mr. West, Mr. Oharlee was summoned
before him, but owing to an informality in
making out the summons the case was dis
missed.
Next day Lewis Wilson, another colored man,
went to the door and was refused admittance.
He complained to Rev. Mr. Page, justice of the
peace, who held that it was a private institution,
and that the proprietor had a right to admit
who he pleased. Tha case was, therefore, dis
missed.
The Accounts or ps Buao.—Assistant Adju

TnzNew Orleans Pioayune says: “We learn
that the prospects are favorable for a large in
crease in the area devoted to rice in tbe State
this ooming season. The past year hS3 been
disastrous to sugar planters that, it is said,
many who have previonaly cultivated cane ex
clusively will turn their attention to rice. It is
probable, therefore, that with a favorable sea

perhaps 125,000 barrels of this oereaL”

of their nurriage, were overwhelmed by con
