JCd'ere Telegraph and Messenger i To- pen of Q .i lam bu long been silent; not tr. • was adverse to stooping from bU prond » tie oo Ihi "dome of tba continent” to tbe ) • .titloa of bid friends In the f*r off valley* of tbe Sonlh. The troth i«, that In tbU bniy litUe city with iU bo»t of tonrials, end visitors from every pert of onr country, IU basiling crowds, its oft reearring excitements, its wild speonle* tlcns end esger r cram tie for wealth, one finds bnt little time for qaiet thought or pleasant communion with friends. Dijs end weeks peas by, eaoh different from tbe one which preceded, and In its varied and changing Incidents wo forget bow rapid is the flight of time. To-dsy we lay onr plans for the morrow; to-morrow changes the plans of yesterday; life Is feverish —none of tbe alow, steady plodding we are ac customed to at the Sontb, hot josttbe opposite. Tbe sight of tbe fsmlllsr oolnmna of the Tsi.ronara axs Mkesexoeb, with their budget of local newt, is a welcome visitor, and brings to mind so mtny pleasant memories of absent friends that I feel that I most indnlge in a little cbit-cnat with them, by yonr leave. How rapidly time changes the landmarks cf the pest! ILoh paper which oomes to me brings tidings of change; now a friend is deed; now one mar ried ; now one moved ewey to fight life'a battle In a new arena; some are fortnnate, some nn- fortnnste, and then tbe worn channels of basi nets charge; new meD, new firms, new basi nets, and soon I will be e stranger in my old home. Hat ench U life. We make new friends, new association*, new stUcbments; still tbe memory of old end tried friends clings to ns all through life, and at times we love to forget tbe present and drink in aweet memories of the past. Bat a trnoe to snob thoughts, for it is my province to write of tbe preeent and not dream of tbe past. Since I last wrote, I have had many fine op- portanities of seeing Colorado, end hare en deavored to improve them. I have been in tbe mines—on tbe plaint—on dairy farms, ranohes, down in ooal fields, and onr moantsln forests, and my faith la this land grows stronger and stronger. To the stranger, Colo rado Is an enigma. It presents on the ono hand greed toweriog, yet bleak mountains, and on tbe other, tbe bare treeless plains. And at first binah ono la almost persaaded to believe that ibis oountry was never intended for tho habita tion of white men, bat was emphatically tbe homo of tbe bison and Indian. Of oonrse onr only farming land la on the' plains, and this looks sterile—tbe grass is slant, and bnt few wroda; and then ns far as the eye can reach not a Lnth or tree Is to be teen. Bat go to a Colorado farm, sr.d all our no tions of sterile soil vanish in a moment. A Colorado wheat field la a sight of which a good farmer wonld never tire. The average yield of wheat will not fall short of thirty tmsbels to tho ecro and many farms will produce forty. The farmers iro ell engaged in harvesting the grain, and bnt litilo trouble it Is. No rocks, no Btcmps, no trees or bashes, no long rainy days to rot or uproot tbe grain. Nothing to do but out and shock and there it can lie without dam- sgo nntll they ere ready to thrash and send to market. And then tbe finest gardens in our oountry are found in Colorado. Notronble from dronlb or exoessof water nere, and a good gar den is a certainly, mill farming la limited here, and it is only the fortnnato owners of lend lying tributary to tbe streams and snsceptiblo of irri gation which can bo cultivated. Away from the streams sod on the high lands are only adapted to grazing, but a better range for sbeep and oatile ta not to be fonnd in our country and they are counted bore, not singly or by dozen*, bnt by tbo bundrod thousand. The great wealth and attraction of Colorado is her mountains. To the "foot bill" from Den ver U just twelve miles. These are mountains in tbe Exit, hut here, In contrast with tbe snowy range, they are termed "feot hills," be ing only abont half tbe beiRht of tbe former. These foot hills < xtond hundreds of miles north and sonlh of Denver—In feet, as far as the range itself, they being pert of the aame. The first sight of tbe highlands along tbo bi the foot hills gives one an unfavorable opinion of the natural wealth of tbo oonntry. The bills look bare and bleak, bat there Is a world of wealth iu them. Wo oomo to a ooal shaft, and dosoend and find men working veins of coal from five to ten feet In diameter, and extending over hundreds of sqnaro miles— ooal onougb for the .world! What on idea! and yet wo find hero its realisation. Jast beyond aro moun tains of Iron oro, nover disturbed by man, yet rleh as tbe iron mountains of Missouri and in- exhauatibio. Tho traveller will peas ov.r tbe fineet limestone be has ever seen, quarries of marble sod granito, hills of gypsum, and min oral paints, nud yet has not rcaohod the miner al wealth of Colorado. Beyond all this comes tho rarer motale—gold, silver, oopper, lead, bis- mntn, antimony and other metals. We retch a fine paying gold or silver mine. There Is the abet t—simply a hole iu the rook, visually about 8x12 feet, and an engtno near tbe asms; and all day tbe buckets rtao and fell, ono going down empty, tho other coming np filled with the precious ore. But few workmen ere to be seen, the miners being- probably hundreds of feet below, and no noise oan be heard from their dark workhoaro save the hoevy echoes of anoooaslonal blast. We inquire what thlsmico is worth. Frobsbly one or two millions of dol lars— enough to build towns, factories, or par- chase thousands of brdail acres, and yet we see only this litilo bole in tbe ground, not mnch larger than a grave, but deep end dark. Those who doubt tbe future prosperity of this coun try, if they will only examine for themselves, they will be aatlrflsd that Colorado, though ono of tbe yonogeat of the royal sisters, is the fair est and brightest of tbe group. From every mining district In tbo territory oomes glorious nows—new discoveries, rich de velopments. Even at "Arapahoe Bar," eight milei from this city, and where the first “placer” or "gnlch” diggings wore made In the territory in 1853, and whtoh were abandoned for rioher diggings iu the mountains, men have returned So work, and are reaping a golden harvest. In those days men worked ender disadvantages, aud ondured hardships which seem to ns like a ta!« which la told. There was no lumber then, no great flumes erected which wonld wash away monutaiDS, but tbo miner depended on a “pan” or "rookor” to work the golden sands. Baoon and flour was then worth a dollar per poand, and everything in the same proportion, bat now tba pioture has changed, provisions are cheap, lumber and machinery Is at hand, and the hardy miser can, with the aid of the deep, roaring streams of tbia mountain country, wash away “the eternal hills,” and so men come back from the mountains to the plains, and sgiin the dig- giogs and washings are made on the 1 first com pany gronnd.” "Arapahoe Bar” is six miles long, and abont one tenth tbe dietance In width, and is usually about thirty feet to "bed-rock,” and this wonderful bar of >and, pebbles and boulders la now yielding abont $200 to the ton, and perhaps in a few mouths wo will tee a new town In tight of old Denver. TLe Arapahoe excitement la not a week old. and yet it makes the pulse feverish—for if it is all that is claimed for it, men who were only oom- fortable farmers last week, are millionaires this. A new era will dawn in mining, tf rich farms are to be literally washed sway for tbs golden sands beneath its fertile surface. Things in Denver move abont as nsuah Progress la the order of the day. From the first of March to the first of September, five hundred and thirty- one bouses were erected, or are in course of construction, and yet the cry la more house*— and fearfnl profits landlords make on exor bitant reds, not less than two per cent, per month. A local reporter of one of the Draverdsily newspaper*, a few days ago, vis ited six of tbe leading hotels of Denver, and fonnd npon inquiry, that at the six hotels there were bat four vacant rooms. This will give yonr readers some Idea of tho amount of travel to Dearer. Other towns grow in proportion to Denver, and while older towns are extending their limits and bnsinees, new towns are spring ing up in every part of tbe country. Lirgs nnmbets of “pilgrims" are flxklrg here from many parts of tbe Sonlh, but none from “the old Commonwtalth of Georgia.” I long to clasp tbe hand of a Georgian, and will promise him a beany welcome and a good tinir generally. The shades of night are causing mr lines to ran together in a kind of a Chinese danoe, to this wandering letter mast oome to a close. Qruuxr. Decisions of (be Supreme Conrt ol Georgia. nrr rvrr.rn DC ATLANTA, TCE8DAT, AUGUST «bTE. From thaAtli&U Constitution ] Slanders Jt Sod vs. Town Conned of Elber- ton. Mandamus, from E.bert. McCar, J.—1. A town council having power to license and recnlale the sale of apintnons liquors, may lega'.ly, in iacniDg a lioenae, con- fiie tbe sale of liquor to a particular room in a boose. 2. Whether two rooms in a particular house In eaeh of whioh it is proposed to sell spirituous liqiors, be in truth two distinct places, is a question of fact, and the judgment of the town ooucetl, under the evideec., bolding that they are distinct places, will not be distnrbed if the evidence justify, though it may not require aueh a onclnsion ty tha council. Judgment t{firmed. E. P Edward*, H. A. lljsbuck, J. D. Mi'hetrs, for plaintiff in error. filbert lii s'nr, N. J. Hammond, for defen dant. Joueph W. Moore vs. W. A. Stone. Com plaint. from Taliaferro. McKaT, J.—The judgment In tbir cate la re- Ttraed on two ground* : 1. That the court erred in charging the jnry that if tbe first and second nontrseis had been abandoned tbe jory moat find aooordmg to the testimony of I*. Moore. 2 Becsnae the verdiot is for too mnch, even neder the evidence of I*. Moore, as it is set for h In the record. Judgment reversed. Geo. F. Bristow, John C. Bred, for plaintiff in error. Reeee A Reese, W. H. Brooke, for defendant. City Connell of Angnsta re. Barney 3. Dun bar. Ir junction, from Richmond. McJxv, J.—1. Bonds owned by oittzena and residents of tbe city of Angnsta, on corpora tions, or individuals resident out of the city, are property, within the city, so ae to be anb- ject to taxation, by tbe city authorities coder their general power, to a sees? a tai upon pro perty within the limits of the oity. 2 Coder the laws of this State a muniolpal corporation cannot levy • tax on the bonds Issued by the State, even though they be pro perty with in tbe oorporate limns. It is not to be presumed that the State In tended, without *n express (pant to that effect, to oaofer npon a municipal corporation a power thus to depreciate tbe State securities, and do what the State itself ought not to be presumed to have done in the absenoe of dear langnige so declaring. 3. Unless express authority to do ao be grant ed by tho Legislators, a municipal corporation has no power to enforoe the payment of taxes das it by tffixiog a penalty of an additional per oentnm for failing to pay promptly when dae. .lodgment reversed. James 0. C. Black, W. H. Hall, for plaintiffs In error. Barnes and Camming for defendant. Thomas 0. and J. S. While vs. W. M. Ha*. I«tt et ah, executors. Belief sot of 1870, from Elbert. Tmrrz, J.—1. Where, daring the seesion of the ooort, leave of absenoe for the term is granted to an attorney, and in a abort time afterwards the attorney being present in eonrt, it was not an error for tbe J edge, in order to prevent tbe continuance of a case in which sacb attorney was the leading counsel, to oall the case for trial out of lbs regular order, un- leas it was mode to appear that the attorney or his client was less prepared for trial on acoount of such leave of absenoe having keen granted, or than they would be if the case were not called oat of Its order. 2. A defendant in execution who lodged witq the levying Sheriff, on tbe 15th of September, 1871, an affidavit that the legal taxes on tbe debt bad not been paid, which affidavit waa made for tbe purpose of arresting tte sale, and did arrest the sale, and was prosecuted by the defendant to a trial oa affidavits of illegality ire tried, wis liable on the trial thereof to the pen alties provided by law for the filing of affidavits of illegality for delay only, provided tbe jnry believed it was interposed for that purpose. 3. On the trial of sc eh case, tbe only legal lac no which, nnder any valid law, oonld have been before the jnry, was whether anch affida vit was filed for delay only; and plaintiffs having attached to the exeontion an affidavit of the payment of taxes before the defendant filed bla affidavit, and proved tbe aims on the trial, and tbe defendants offered no evidenoe, “We, I lie jnry, find for tbe plaintiffj ten per cent, damages," was a legal verdict, and one that oovered the whole iasne. Judgment affirmed. J. D. Matbews, H. A- Roebuck, Clark A Goss, for plaintiff* in error. B. Toombs, for defendant. EXTRACTS FROM PREMIUM LIST GEORGIA STATE FAIR COMMENCING October 27th, 1873 CENTRAL CITY PM MACON, OA. John A. Bobler, T. 0., vs. E. B. Schneider. Injunction, from Biohmond. Ikon, J.—1. The act approved 20:h Feb ruary, 1873, Imposing a speoial tax on wholesale dealers in malt liqnora Is not In violation of the 27th section of artiole 1 of the Constitution of the State, whioh says “taxation on property shall be ad valorem only, and uniform oa all species of property taxed.” 2. Such a tax la a tax oa a business, occupa tion or calling, as decided in Bnrch vs. Mayor and Aldermen of Savannah, 42 Go. 536; and ber.ee is not a Iki on the sslo of liquors which, by tbe 3d section of article G of the Constitu tion tncy be assessed for ednoilionnl purposes. 3. A tax levied on anch wholesale dealers is not void for nooertainty, on tbe gronnd that the law nowhere defines what constitutes • wholsale dealer. That is * foot that may be deter mined like all other facts, as forinstance whether the party taxed as a practicing attorney or as seased as tho owner of certain property, is such a tax-payer or owner. It may be asoerlained in cases lately made nnder tbe provisions of aootion 4 of Code, from experts In anch bosi ness, and other proper evidence. Tbe ques tion whether tbe person so taxed is a wholesale dealer, cannot be raised on a bill to enjoin a tax rolleetur fiom eolleetiog » tax so nsseased.
