■Ve »rc indebted to M:. fftt'l.r; v.of
D ingbertj, for » copy cf the Oauions
Kiiiio-ul Bill which hi4 been r: com
mended by the Committee on Kailtcad',
»e a robstltute for all pending railroad
acts before the Hon e.
It is a document, which ia so sul-vemvo
of the rights of individuals and corpora-
uons. so antagonistic to the geuius of
free mentations, and confers snch extra
ordinary powers upon a junta of tcree
commissioners woo ooget to be termed
a trluiurirate that we are at a lose prop,
erly to character.ze it.
If such a bill snonld become law, the
Legislature weald have an eqnal right to
regelate the fares , on all steamboats
and stage lines in the State, to fix the
price of labor m the Macon factory, or to
enact what wages every planter Ehonld
pay to his laborers.
We aro by no means opposed to any
earefnl legislation which wilt prevent un
just discriminations against individuals
aud localities on onr several railroads.
But the measures in question aro far too
sweeping and radical. Moreover, toey
will prove in practice a mere bruiutn ful-
me a, impossible to be carried lute effect*
Bat we withhold comment, and proceed
to give a resume of tho most salient fea
tures o! the ins.rument, which ia loo long
to prinl in etteruo.
The bill provides for the appointment
by the Governor of three commissioners,
by, and with the advice of the Senate, one
to bold effioe nntil January, 1881, one un
til Jannery, 18S3, and ono nntil Janaary,
1885, and every snbseqaent appoiatmeut
for six years. Each commissioner shall
give bond for ten thon-mid dollars for tbe
ptoper discharge of his duties, and taka
the proscribed oath of office.
Tho S ato shall furnish tho commie-
missioners with a business office at tho
Capitol, and they are each aliased an an
nual salary of $3,500, and are permitted
to employ a secretary, whoso pay is fixed
at $1,GOO. Xcno of the parties shall be
interested as stockholders or otherwise
in any railway company.
Tbeeu commissioners shall bave tha
general supervision of all tho railroads
in the State, shall from time to time ex
amine into tbe condition of their tracks,
road, beds, rolling stock, cars, stations,
station honses, and any and all property
used in operating railroads, and shall
canso such changes, additions and im
provements made thereto os in their
judgment may be needed.
If any railroad company refnses to
carry out in good faith aDy order or dl*
n otion of the said commissioners for snch
improvements of, changes iD, additions
to its track, road-bed, rolling stock, cars,
stations, station houses, etc., any each
company will bo held liable, and fined
not less than $100 or inoro than $1,000
for each offense.
Any rebate or bonus directly or indi.
rectly is forbidden, under a like penalty.
Under section 5th the commissioners
aro empowered "to adopt rales and regu
lations for railroads of this Stato in mak
ing contra its with railroads of another
State relative to tbe carrying of passen
gers and freight. Toe Said commission
ers shall define who are through passen
gers and what are through freights, and
shall from time to time establish proper
passenger tariffs for through pabsengers
and proper rates far throngh freights,
which ehall bo as near uniform as possi
ble on all tbe railroids of this State, and
witbont any unjust discrimination in
favor of one locality or person against
another locality or person. Said railroad
commissioners shall define who are local
passengers, and what aro local freights,
and shall from time to time establish
local passenger tariffs, classify freights
and establish rates for local freights
which shall be as near nniform as possi
ble, etc., etc."
Section (ith clothes the) commissioners
with power to ‘‘supervise the contracts
made with any railroad company in tnia
State with another railroad company for
moving cars, or any ether carry
ing contract, of contracts made with any
express company, sleeping car company,"
or any other contract mads with tho
State or United States, and requires the
said companies to submit to tbe ratings
of the commissioners under penalty of
tho law.
Section 7th giTea tne right to the Com*
missiensrs lo investigate the condition,
indebtedness, monthly business, assets
and operations of every road in the State,
and the company refusing to snbmit to
its espionage can be fined, as above sta
ted, from $100 to $1,000 ior each of
fense.
Section Sth provides for the hearing of
complaints and oorreotion of abnsea com
mitted against any stockholder or indi-
vidua!.
It also allows tbe Commissioners to
examine all the books of the several rail
roads, and even goes so far as to author
ize them to wind them up, and if deemed
advisable, ‘‘adopt for all the railroad
companies in the State one system of
tbe charter tights of any railroad compa
ny ; cr any right coder *Dy ocntract with
■ be Slate,* 1 as i vice ’.ersa, provides for the
t-rfeitcre of ail charters which shall be
j edged to bave been violated by those
bolding them.
Seeiion 15:h repeals all conflicting Iaw a
and cts.
Tho above is a fair synopsis of this
remarkable bill. It will be observed t hst
these terrible oommisaioners are no* only
the enpervijers of railroadr and the ac
cusers of deliaqnents, bat sctnallysit as a
court in jadgment upon the offenses
th-y themselves have docketed. What a
traversty upon justice, and wbr.t floods
of litigation will be opened up ! Verily,
the lawyers will say "it is an ill wind that
blow, nobody any good.” Moreover, the
office of commissioner tin the hands of a
careful body with India robber con.
science, would be eqnal in its pickings to
the salary of the sheriff of Charleston or
the Lord Mayor of London.
It ia to be hoped that tbe good sense
of the people’s representatives will bury
this extraordinary bill too deep for resnr.
lection. Let U3 prohibit unjust discrim
inations by railroads, but in doing eo not
qnile legislate them to death. It should
be remembered that the stockholders of
these roads are our brethren, and many
of them helpless orphans and widows^

Tbe Xenueesee Rond Klecttou
Tcok place yeUerday, the question .being
on the acceptance by the people of the
provisions of an act proposing to the State
creditors to renew the bonded debt of the
State at fifty cents in tbe dollar, in new
bonds, bearing four por cent, interesl.
The State now owing twenty-five millions
the compromise would rednoe the princi
pal to $12,500,000 and half a million in
terest. The preposition has been strong
ly combatted and still more strongly ad-
vooated on tho btump, and it wonid appear
from the Tennessee papers that a good
deal of excitement had been raises npon
the question. It boa been treated in dis*
en .ion altogether as a matter of profit
and loss; for although no ono has raised
tho alternative of repudiation, in so many
words, it appears to be a matter of plain
inference tbit the opponents of the com
promise assume it as tho natural alterna
tive of a refusal to reoognize fifty per cent,
of the debt. If any crowd, however
email, in favor of payiog more than half
or of paying the whole of tho debt, exists
in tho Stato of Tennessee, they are con
cealed and invisible.
It ia impossible to Bay how the vote
will go. Tho weight of the newspaper
press and the speaking politicians seems
to preponderate heavily in favor of the
compromise; bnt on a question of this
nature this tact does not offer a aura in
dex of public feeling, and it is hard to
get a full vote on any public question
disconnected with personal interests and
contest’. It may be two or throe days
before ■ n intelligible idea of tho result
can be o btained.
If tho proposition should bo voted
down there will be some very pointed
animadversion about it all ronnd the
world of civilization. Bat probably

Section 9:h provides for the punish
ment of violations of charters, viz: after
hearing and conviction before tbe Com
missioners, by a tine of not loss than n
hundred, cr moro than a thousand dol
lars in each case.
Section 10th makes receivers equally
liable as the President or directors of a
railroad in any suit or complaint againat
tbe property they represent.
Section 11th orders that all railroad
companies “shall issue duplicate freight
receipts to shippers, in which shall be
stated tho class or classes of freight
shipped, tho freight charges over the
road giving the receipt, and, so far as
practieabie.shall state the.freighc charges
over other roads that carry such freight.”
Tne bill does not aiy, however, who must
foot the bill for all this extra work, if it
were possible to be accomplished.
Section 12th provides for the record
ing of judgments and the enforcement of
the executions issued by the commission
ers which are to bs collected “as in cases
at oommon law,” provided; “That a jadg
ment for penalties herein provided lor,
shall be a lien on all the property of rail
road companies, superior to all other
liens except liena for taxes doe to the
State.”,
This ranks even the lien of the poor
laborer and mechanic.
Section 13th gives the right to ng
grieved railroad corporations to appeal
from the decision* of tbe Commissioners
within ten days after the rendering oi jnlg
ruent, to the Superior Coart, wn:ch ap

without money and waiting a celestial

friends, work, money, food nor shelter.
The State was overrun with colored ‘‘ref

the work of providing for them.
The reporter, however, in the course of
his walk, stumbled on another party of

Another “Outrage." — Under this
head the Atlanta Dispatch proceoda to
make our flesh crawl by the following re-
cital:
Deputy Marshal R. D. Bolton, on
Monday last, arrested Chet. M. Green, of
Madison, on a charge of sending obscene
matter through tho mails. Green stout
ly denies that ho ia the man wanted,
aud that his name is not Green.
The arrest developed a case of alleged
ku-kloxing, in wbioh E. B. Badger, a son
of Ralph Badger, the colored dentist ot
Atlanta, wkb tne victim. Oar reporter
saw young Badger end from mm obtained
tho facts given below, he positively deny
ing that he gave any cause by oonduct or
otherwise, for the outrage sought to be
inflioted upon him.
Borne time ago be opened a dental shop
in Madison, aud by hard work and gen
tlemanly deportment secured a nioe little
patronage. On the 16:U of last June, he
received a letter in which every vulgar
and profane word known to billingsgate
waa written. The letter was chock-full
of threats and menaces, and warned him
in strong terms to leave Madis-a forth
with ana forever. It was signed K. K. K.,
and bore the usnal coffin and cross bones
symbol. Badger was considerably flus
tered at the rcoeption of this eptstlo. He
says he recognized it as in the hand
writing of Chet M. George, a primer iu
the office of the Madisonian, at Malison.
He replied to the letter, he says, in gen
tlemanly terms, and awaited results.
About a week aiterward a party of
masked men, eight or ten iu Dumber,
went to the house where he was boarding
about threo quarters of a mil a out of
town, and on nia going to the door was
seized by them and carried into the road,
where they proceeded to undress him,
preparatory to giving him a castigation
witn plaited hickories. About the time
the party and the lashes were ready, Bad-
ger broke loose and skipped.
Twelve or thirteen soots were fired at
the fugitive ku-klux victim, but without
any other c-ffeot than causing him to ac
celerate hie speed of iooomolioa. Bad
ger continued to live in Madison, but
made himself secure at nights, not daring
to venture out. A week ago he came to
Atlanta and reported the tacts to head
quarters. Marshal Bolton arrested Mr.
Green as above stated, but Badger says
the man who wrote him tho letter was
named George. We have no opportunity
cf giving the other side of the story.
There is no snch thing as ku-kiuxing in
Georgia, and and we would warn the
Methodist Advocate against a too hasty
gohDling up of this item, as it may
Uanspire that the other side of the story
may bring to light things that will dispel
the idea of ku-kluxmg and may have
bearmg on the prompt requirement of
lynch law.
A sale of a town lot iu Thomasville,
the other day, developed the fact that
$75 per front foot was not considered an
exorbitant price.
Wx oapied some adverse opinions the
other day on tho question of the release
of Messrs. Grant and Nutting from their
liability on the Joaos bond, and to-day
present one on the other side from the
Batter Herald, which fays:
If it is true, as stated in tho petition
of Grant ana Nutting, that they became
tho sureties of John Jones on his official
bond—that it was intended by them that
this bond Bhould be a mere temporary
bond—that their liability should cease on
the giving of a new bond by Jones, and
tho Governor accepted ic with this un
derstanding, that upon tbe giving of the
new bond their liability ceased, and if
from any stern role ot law they are held
by tho conns to bj liablo beyond the
time stipulated, the Legislature
should promptly grant relief. If any
los3 accrued to the State by tbe msl ad
ministration of Mr. Jones after the giv
ing of the first bond, and before the sec
ond was approved and accepted by the
Governor, Messrs. Grant and Nutting
should be made to respond. This in
equity and good conscience, is the extent
oi their liability. *8uf to hold them re
sponsible for losses that occurred after
the second bond wa3 accepttdand ap
proved by tbe Governor, would be an
act of injustice, that the State can’t
afford to be a party to. It is enough to
hold men liable according to their con
tract. Ic is requiring too much to ex
tend their liaoillty beyond the time
agreed upon.
It mignt have been the duty of Grant
andNutting to tars seen to i>, that an or
der was taken, and enterea of record,
showing that their liability ceased on
tne giving of the second bond. The
greatest degree of caution and prudence,
or some technical role of law, might
have imposed this as a doty. But it
cannot be insisted, - by any fair-minded
man, that a failure to be thus punctilious,
would allow, much less justify the State,
in demanding from them, ninety-odd
thousand dollars.
Their undertaking was, that Jones,
during the time that they were his
bondsmen, wonid faithfully administer
the affsirs of his office; and on failure
to do eo, they would make good any
should be, the object of nil investigation,
and when we have found this sure foun
dation stone, we may safely rear up::i it
one superstrnciure, with the assurance
that it wi',1 bear the severest tests, and
withstand them all.
We have heard it suggested by some
that if Grant and Nutting are not made
to respond in this case that the State
will lose some ninety-two thousand dol
lars, as it is probable that the sureties on
the last bond aro not able to respond.
We do not know whe hir tbe last bond
can be made available or nor. If net,
and they are liable to re.p nd, it is a
misfortune for too State But surely
Grant and Nutting should not be made

lhe sun is oat with a splendid glow
and tho peoplo throng the strectB and
the walks of the campns, eager to hear
tbe members of tho Junior class distin
gaish themselves.
At tlie hour of opening the exercises
of the day the Chapel was filled with an
unusually large and respectful audience,
assembled to witness tha success of the
Junior class, in which expectation I am
nappy to say the crowd were m no wise
disappointed, for the original speeches of
this class exhibited a depth of reason
and an extension cf studious research
eldom witnessed in exercises of this char
acler.
AFTER TRATER,
offered up by the Rev. Dr. Line, of this
place, and several delicious sweetB of
music discoursed by au unusually fine
brass bind, the first speaker, Mr. Orr, of
Atlanta, a sou of State Commissioner
Orr, assumed tho rostrum and addressed
his auditory iu a discourse of some
length, on “Works of Fiction.” Though
Bit entirely agreeing «ith tne young or
ator in all his views regarding works of
flotion, yet we are constrained to say
that the address was a She exhibition of
■correct English.
Mr. O. H. Bloodworth, of Barnesville
was excused.
Mr. O. C. Fuller, D. S., of Atlanta, in
a manner admirable and stron
proved “Lack a fool and Pluck
hero.”
Mr. Irby Lumpkin, of Texas, was ex
cused.
Mr. T. Y. Lester, of Jonesboro, told
his audience of tbe great philanthropist
“George Peabody.”
Mr. B- ii. Noble, P. K. S., of Athens,
delivered one of the best, and in the
opinion of some, the beat oration of the
day. His theme was, “True Grit.
Under the careful handling of this
young gentleman, was exhibited a care
ful and severe consideration of a tbomo
deep enough and important enough to
elicit tbe attention of all who heard the
speaker for half tn hour.
Mr. W. J. Williams, of South Caroli
na, chose as the subject of his speech,
“Journalism.” This was an admirable
address and admirably delivered; the
speaker portraytd in severe, yet hu
morous terms all tt e little “clap i rap” and
“national sonerositj” of the sensational
press of the day, and coneltd-d by giv
ing a description of a true and con
scientious journalist, one ready aud
brave euougu to tell the truth in all snd
every case.
Mr. W. H. Hill, D. S., of Patnam
county, was excused.
The next orator was Mr. J. H. Merrill,
D. S., of Thomasville, who ia a manner
easy and forcible delivered a close and
exhaustive argument illustrated by care
fully arranged facte, proving that “Prog
ress i3 the law of the Universe.”
Tha next and last speaker waa Mr. O.
M. Houser, D. S, of Fori Valley. This
gentleman selected as his subject the
"Co-educatioH of the sexes.” This ad-
drees, in point of declamation, was tbe
best delivered of the day, and the matter
of the discourse proved that the young
orator had well digested his facts, and
considered their inevitable logic.
THE DELIVERY OF SOPHOOTORE JfCDALJ,
by Gen. A. R Lawton, of Savannah, next
took place. The distinguished gentle
men, in a brief uud neat speech of ten
minutes, announced the result of the de
cision of the judges on tbe declamation
of tho day before.
The first prize wa9 awarded to Mr.
J. P. Camp, of Douglassville, and the
second medal of merit was decreed to
Mr. J. S. Williams, of Ware oounty.
Both of these gentlemen should be
proud of having won such honors from
their able and generous competitors.
Indeed tha committee appoint!d to de
cide the awatdmg of tne prizes, were
much embarrsca d to know to whom to
give the meric of excellence where so
many were deserving of the highest mer
it, and those who received no medal
were scarcely behind these who did.
ALDJt-I APDBXSS.
The Chapel was packed again at four
and a half o’clock to hear the Hon. A.
H. Stephens address the Alnmni.
Tne venerable and distinguished
statesmen chose as his theme the inqui
ry, “What is the chief cad of mm?*
ehowiog how tbe sages aud philo-opfcer
of olden lime in their systems of epicu

a half “tbo old man eloquent,” seated in
his chair held the attentive throng upon
his lips, listeniDg to words of strong en
couragement and thoughts of deepest
wisdom on this most important subject.
Mr. Stephens paid a glowing tribute to
those of Georgia’s sons. Alumni of this
College, who had by their lives of labor
and benefit for their race, solved the
great question the end of their crea
tion, to-wit: usefulness and duty to

Symptoms of a Diseased Liver.
TJAIN -in the right side, under the
1 edge of the ribs, increases on pres
sure ; sometimes the pain is in the left
side; the patient is rarely able to lie
on the left side; sometimes the pain
is felt under the shoulder blade, and
it frequently extends to the top of the
shoulder, and is sometimes mistaken
for rheumatism in the arm. The stom
ach is affected with loss of appetite
and sickness; the bowels in general
are costive, sometimes alternative with
lax; the head is troubled with pain,
accompanied with a dull, heavy sen
sation in the back part. There is gen
erally a considerable loss of memory,
accompanied with a painful sensation
of having left undone something which
ought to have been done. A slight,
dry cough is sometimes an attendant.
The patient complains of weariness
and debility; he is easily startled, his
feet are cold or burning, and he com
plains of a prickly sensation of the
skin; his spirits arc low; and although
he is satisfied that exercise would be
beneficial to him, yet he can scarcely
summon up fortitude enough to try it.
In fact, he distrusts every remedy.
Several of the above symptoms attend
the disease, but cases have occurred
where few of them existed, yet exam
ination of the body, after death, has
shown the liver to have been exten
sively deranged.
