SkXATOC-S IS coi'sc:!..
Washixqtox, December 20.—The Ee-
nblican Senators were in caucus for four
ours yesterday. The great question be-
fere the caucus was what can be done to
bring the Republican party back to the
status of 1872 ? It was pretty generally
agreed that it would be folly to commit
the party at this time to any defiuste
policy as to internal improvements. Sen
ator Cameron, who is one of the members
of tho sub-committee appointed to con
sider this subject, declared that he is op
posed to the whole theory. It was held
that, although it might at first be a very
popular thing to give employment to the
idle labor of the country, it would be tm-
tossible to find means for carrying on
argo public works without a resort to the
wildest inflation, and even those who have
been clamoring tho loudest for more cur
rency admitted the danger of this. This
branch of tho business before the caucus
was therefore left undisposed of for the
1 (resent. The discussion of Southern af-
i airs proved also a knotty question. Sen
ator Morton, who is at the head of the
sub-committee appointed on tho South,
would probably be willing to go to the
extreme lengths desired by tho carpet
baggers, and ho expressed tho opinion
that something ought to and must be
done. Tho carpet-baggers, wbilo willing
to remain in the background and follow
the lead of tho Northern and Western
Senators on other points, have been
rather urgent in demanding that their
wishes ho acceded to in respect to
Southern affairs. Meagre. Clayton and
Dorsey, for instance, have pressed that
Mr. Brocks be declared by solemn act of
Congress tho legal Governor of Arkansas,
and Mr. West insists that Kellogg be
proclaimed Governor of Louisiana by
Congress, and Pinchback be admitted to
tho Senate without delay. Most of the
New England and Western Senators have,
however, come to the opinion expressed
by the President in hi3 message, that it
is time to let tho Southern States regu
late their own affairs. Several of the30
Senators said, in tho cancus, that they
could see no justification for tho inter-
ference by Congress in tho affairs of these
two States, and .that they thought it
would be bettor for the Republican party
that they should be let alone. It was
also intimated that it was difficult to ex
plain how Governor Morton could con
sent to receive Pinchback as an associ
ate in tho Senate after the manner in
which he had spoken of Pinohback’s per
sonal character, And of the .improper
means used to compass his election. It
was further argued that there wore com
mittees of the House engaged in investi
gating the condition of the two States
named, and it wonld be more proper to
await their report. It was observed on
the other side that the House sub-com-
mittee which had been designated to go
to Louisiana consisted of a Democrat and
two very conservative Republicans, and
it was charged by the friends of Mr. Kel
logg that ho would not receive justice at.
their hands. It might be said that jus
tice would probably be about tho last
thing that Mr. IjCellogg would be likely
to desiro. Some Senators suggested an
increase of the army; others an Improved
militia system in the South. Finally,
nothing definite was decided upon, but
the impression was that it would not at
any rate be practicable to accomplish
anything before tho new year.
THE MONEY QUESTION. ",
The financial condition of the country
was then discussed in detail. It wns ad
mitted that if in any way possible a
financial bill of some kind to satisfy the
peoplo, must be put through, and it was
said that thero was no doubt tho House
would agree to anything which passed
the Senate. -.One difficulty staring Con
gress in tho face is the almost certain
prospect that tho government receipts
for this and tho next fiscal year will be
insufficient to meet its obligations. Thero
either must be an increase of taxes, a
very considerable redaction of the ex-
cndituro3, or an increase of the public
_ebt. There was a disposition, however,
to postpone for the present the consider-
ation of this unpleasant subject.
Mr. Sherman, chairman of tho sub-com
mittee appointed to take the finances into
consideration, presented at length the re
sult of the two or three meetings which
the subcommittee has held. This com
mittee was composed of Senators of three
or four different shades of opinion on the
finances, those who have been classed
generally as inflationists having one ma
jority. Mr. Sherman can be called neith
er an infiationiat nor a contractionist, but
is in favor of early specie resumption.
His willingness to compromise has always
resulted in the fingl rejection of his bills.
He submitted, on the basis of a compro
mise, a bill, the features of wijich were
said to be acceptable to both the infla
tionists and contractionists on tha com
mittee. These are, in the main, specie
resumption four yoars from January 1,
1S75; free coinage, free banking, with
the retirement of 80 per cent, of green
backs until the legal tenders are reduced
to $300,000,0001 the gradual substitu
tion of silver coin for the $36,000,000 of
outstanding fractional currency, and the
treasury to exchange bonfla for gold, if
necessary, with which to redeem the
greenbacks. It is understood that the
Finance Committee was authorized to
propose a bill of this general nature, al
though it may be altered in soma of its
details. The subcommittee first adopt
ed the bill by 11 to 4,but afterwards made
the vote unanimous. It is not understood,
however, that the caucus bound itself
absolutely to the support of the bill, as
some wished to reserve the privilege of
criticising and amending it, hut this may
ba dene hereafter. If possible the bill
will be presented to-morrow.
thr republican representatives.
Tho cancus of the Southern Republi
can members of the House last night wa3
largely attended. Representative Thom
as, of Virginia, presided. A committee,
composed of Messrs. "White of Alabama,
Maynard of Tennessee, Platt of Virginia,
Kansier of South Carolina, and Whiteley
of Georgia, was appointed to confer with
a committee representing the Southern
Republican Senators to prepare such
measures as they may desire to have
passed. The caucus resolved that, as
this was a short session, they would op
pose any recess other than an adjourn
ment over Christmas day and New Year’s
day. There are three subjects of legis
lation which they will particularly urge
upon Congress, viz: Financial legislation;
some action in favor of transportation
and internal improvements, and certain
legislation relating to Southern affairs.
Beyond this, the gentlemen who partici
pated in the caucus, decline to say what
aoticn was token, as it was agreed that
further proceedings should be kept se
cret for the present. They want it un
derstood, however, that they do not pro
pose to make a sectional fight, but that
such legislation as they wifi reooqjmend
will be for the benefit of the whole coun
try. Exactly what they propose to have
done in relation to Southern affairs has
not transpired, bat from hints thrown
oat. they will try to have oertoin amend
ments m«A» to the ZBoonstraction acts, so
that, as they eay. Southern Republicans
may be “bettor protected." One of these
Bensweentatiree raid today that Ml Re
publicans in the Sonth are hated just as
much today as the Abehtionists were
before the war, and that while the Re
publicans are yet in power, something
mart be done to afford them better pro-
what they did want to accomplish. In
other words, it was a meeting of a num-
ber of gentlemen, no three of whom
could agree upon a definite plan of opera
tion. They were united in one thing,
however, and that was in denunciation
of Poet master General Jewell for the re
moval of postmasters in the South, and
it was agreed that a statement should be
prepared, to be submitted to him and to
the President, representing that the re
moval of these Federal officers and the
appointment of othera, without consulta
tion with the representatives most im
mediately interested, was having a most
damaging effect upon Republican pros
pects in the South.
THE PACITIC HAIL SUBSIDY.
Up to Friday evening last tho subjoin-,
mittee appointed to examine Mr. R. B.
Irwin wero perfectly well satisfied with
the manner in which he had answered
the-questions put to him, and they felt
assured that they would have no difficulty.
Yesterday, however, Mr. Irwin changed
tactics, and when asked to give detailed
statements of the manner in which ho
had expended tho $750,000 entrusted to
him, he declined to answer, pleading tho
rights of counsel and clients. This is tho
gist of the wholo inquiry, and tho com
mittee wiU leave no effort untried to
compel a response. They will report the
facts to the full committee to-morrow, and
will then ask the House to bring tho wit
ness before the bar of the House, with a
view of either compelling an answer or
of punishing him for contempt. Mr. Ir
win's friends and counsel say that noth'
ing will compel him to answer tho ques
tion as to whom ho paid tho money. He
will submit to punishment first, espe
cially as his imprisonment cannot,last
more than two months. Ho will plead
the condition of his health os a reason
why bo should not be compelled to un
dergo very rigorous treatment.
The testimony of James D. Smith,, a
director, on Friday was very positive as
to the ignorance of the board’of directors
of the company, of the expenditure of the
vast amount of money alleged to have
been disbursed at Washington, for months
after its occurrence. He sho wed that tho
subject was first brought to the attention
of the board by street reports that Presi
dent Stockwell had spent very largo
amounts in some way in obtaining tho
subsidy, and tho board proceeded to ecs
what should bo done to hold tho parties
involved in the expenditure to a legal ac
count.
DEPARTMENT OP JUSTICE.
Mr. Beck will in.iko another effort to
morrow to secure the adoption of the res
olution offered on Monday last for ah in
vestigation of tho Attorney General’s of
fice, and especially the matters connected
with tho late safe bnrglaiy trial. Yes
terday Mr. Beck wa3 at tho office of the
solicitor of the treasury fortifying him-
self with facts and figures, to be used in
urging tho necessity of making thd lifit
vostigation. Under tho terms of the
resolution tho committee need not confine
itself to the safe burglary alone, bat may
take up other matters connected With the
Attorney’s General’s office. One of tho
most-prominent subjects of inquiry will
bo tho^payment of the cotton'claims,
wherein it is believed tho most atrocious
frauds harp been perpetrated. In a speech Ale£"MathewsV - V John C. Wheeler, t 'i

GENERAL PRESENTMENTS
Of the Fall-Term Second Panel
the Grand Jury sf Bihh county
Superior Court.
Gioboia, Bibb County.—We, the
sworn Grand Jurors for the second panel
fall-term, beg leave to make the fGlow
ing report as general presentments:
In regard to the county, jail, we ’em
phatically pronounce the present build
ing occupied as a jail to be utterly unfit
for the purpose, and an outrage oh the
county;, and as the' county is compara
tively out of debt, we recommend that,
instead of paying rent for the present
so-called jail, that one safe and comfort
able be at once erected, and that in'its
construction it should be taken into con
sideration that all persons are presumed
to be innocent until proved guilty, which
recommendation is made because we find
that no person can be incarcerated in
the present jail without great suffering,
and exposure to local disease.
In the matter of ihe public school s;
tem inaugurated and now in force in t!
county, this Grand Jury fully concurs
with the first three Grand Juries of this
year, and vre recommend that the insti
tution bo retained on its present basis.
That wo regard the expenditure as wise,
beneficial, and of incalculable value to
the rising generation of Bibb county.
We present the system of farming out
the Penitentiary convicts as wrong, and
a matter for the most serious considera
tion of the people of Georgia, Any oon-
vict may bo sought out and hired by a
friend and thus enjoy exemption from
punishment for his crime. Escape is
comparatively easy, and the convict thus
loose upon the community creates dismay
and "consternation in the neighborhood.
This has been the case in more than one
instance, and we recommend..to our rep
resentatives in the Legislature to give
the matter their attention, to see if some
system cannot be adopted by which the
prisoners can bo securely confined and
put to some occupation which will be
self-sustaining if not remunerative.
We would present the Constitutional
Act known a3 tho Homestead Law'as be
ing unwise, and against the true interests
of the people of Georgia. It causes cap
ital to shun tho State, and is ruinous to
honest men of limited means. That un
til thosaidhomesteadactcanbe repealed
we would recommend the re-enactment of
tho Lien Law, in order to facilitate the
occupation of farming, which otherwise
will cause many a poor, hut honest, man
to forego the business.
We recommend that *he law regarding
usury ho allowed to; -main as at present.
That money, like any other commodity,
has its market value, and tho limiting of
interest by Legislative enactment is in
fact inoperative, and does not cheapen
money to tho borrower.
Whereas, The duty of a juror ha3 bo
come onerous and oppressive upon the
limited number of persons subject to said
serviceand, . j •
Whereas, Tho penalty for not obeying
summons for jury duty is rarely, if ever,
inflicted, we recommend that the prcaid-
qauso tho .pepalty for nop.at
tendance to be’ rigidly enforced.

The Board of Directors of this Asso
ciation,'feeling assured that' the patrons
of their enterprise and the public gener
ally are satisfied that in its management
the interests of a]l concerned will be
strictly guarded, with honesty and fair
ness; and relying upon tho belief that all
who htrv£ku3edii3 In our effort to com
plete the Masonic Templo m this city,
are willing to rely'npon our judgment as
to tho expediency of another postpone
ment for a few. days, notwithstanding our
announcement that the concert would
wsitively bo givon op the 19th inst.,
lave decided that a short delay will he
more satisfactory to all holders of tickets
than to hare a partial drawing on Thurs
day next. ‘ '' J '
The following reasons have induced us
to this action
First—Whilo our receipts have been
large, they have not been of sufficient
amount to enable us to giro a full draw-
Seeond—A drawing on the 19th instant,
would not yield enough to accomplish the
object for which our Association was or
ganized and chartered; and, •
Third-—Tho encouragement which we
have received convinces us that in forty
days more we shall, without any failure,
jive a drawing which in its results will
ie acceptable to all our friend*.
Wo have therefore fixed upon
' .- VTUESDAY, DECEMBER 29TU,
os the fiay when the Concert and distri
bution will take place, whether all the
tickets are sold or not, or the money will
be refunded npon application and pre
sentation of the. tickets at the Agency
where purchased.

Schktck’s lUarDKAXB Pills will he found to
possess those qualities necessary to the total
eradication of all bilious attacks, prompt to start
tho^ accretions of the l[ver, and give a healthy
tone to tho entire system. Indeed, it is no or
dinary discovery in medical science to have in
vented a remedy for these stubborn complaints,
which develop all the results produced by a here
tofore freo use of calomel# a mineral justly
dreaded by mankinds and acknowledged to he
destructive in the extreme to the human system. I
That the properties of certain vegetables com
prise all the virtues of calomel without its inju
rious tendencies, is now an admitted &ct, ren
dered indisputable by scientific researches; and
those who qse the Kaqdrake Pills Will he f ally
satisfied that the best medicines are those pro
vided by nature in the common herbs and roots
of the fields.
Those pills open the bowels and correct all
bilious derangements without salivation or any
of the injurious effects of calomel or other poi
sons. The secretion of bile is promoted by these
pills, as will bo seen by tho altered color of the
stools and disappearing of the sallow complexion
and deansing of the tongue.
