Mr. Bacon Haid that there was n -
more crime in Georgia than la other
Slittfl, bat tost there was crimo in tha
State. The question ii, *’is Ihcie evil in
the St »tu tne present law dots no: reaoh?**
Teat is the question for each legislator to
oonsider.
The majority of men who take lifp ee-
capo punishment, and the caosc at-
Iributabla to tho laws delay. The law
gives too much time to the crimiu.il.
Ttiia gives lime to the oriminal to suborn
wit ore iiv*tj and to canvofe3 the entire
country and fied cut tho opinions of
every man, andtbe jury is always com
posed of bis friends.
The opposers of this bill say it is an
untqusl contest* I- is not, tor the Iaw
gives all the doubt in favor of the pris
oner. A man who is rich can give u
boud either before the committing mag
istrate or by writ of habeas carpus.
Mr. Bacon then g*ve an instance, re
lated to him by the judge of his circuit,
of a c&ao where a prisoner, tried for bis
life two jkftra ago, xa jet uncondemn ?d.
The bill provides tnat cases of homi
cide have precedence of all business
before the court, end that the prisoner
shall bo tried at too term of tho coon at
which the indictment is found, unices
tho principles of justice should otherwise
demand, absence of witnesses, etc. The
old Lw gives tbo prisoner a term on this
ground only. This is wrong, for often
no witness can be reached in a few days.
All tho bill atks is to„bring the offender
speedily to trial and not delay etie matte
by such u length of time as to paraliz
justice entirely. We do not legislate for
the guilty or to protoct them. We are
here to protect tho citizens of the State.
The e is no bill ever introduced by tho
speaker which ho would rather have
paea than this. Ho believes that if the
bill is passed it will lessen the number of
homicides in the Sfitc, will lessen the
number of widows and orphans in the
State. The Speaker then preceded to
show how long it would be before a criin-
inal would be brought to justice. It wiil
take at least sixty to seventy days after
indictment found, without counting the
time which can be disposed of in contin
uances, of thirty day and perhaps sixty
day, if the Judge so see fit to make the
time. . _ _,
Tending the conclusion of this ques
tion the House adjourned.

Purifies the Bleed and (Jives
Strength.
Du Quoxy, III, Jan 21,1S7S.
Mb a R Stevbss—
Dear Sir—Your ••Yegetine’' has been doing
wonders for me. Have been having the Chilis
and Fever, contracted in tho swamps of the
South, nothing giving me relief until I began
the use of your Yegetine, it giving immediate
relief, toning ud my system, purifying my blood,
giving strength; whereas all other medicine**
weakened me, and filled my system withpoi*
son; and I am satisfied th*t if families that livo
in the ague districts of the South and West
wouliTtase Yegetine two o* three times a wee>
they would to: be troubled with the Chills or
the malignant Fevers that prevail at certain
times of the year, save doctors’ bil s, and live to
a good old age. Respectfully yours.

Art. Diseases of tub Blood.—If Yegetine
will relieve pain, cleanse, purify, and cure such
diseases, restoring the patient perfect health,
after trying different physicians, many remo
dies, suffering for years, is it not conclusive
proof.il you are a sufferer, you can be cured V
Why is thu medicine performing such great
cures? It works in the ulocd, m the circulating
fluid. It can truly bo called the Great Blood
Purifier. The greit suurce of disease originates
m the blood, and no medicino that does not act
directlv upon it, to punfv aud renovate, has any
just claim upon public attention.

REMARKABLE LETTER FROM J A
TUCKER. ESQ . MANU/ACT0RSR Or'
BAY STATE SUPE RPHOSPHATB.
oSesshs Wbsks & Pottsr — Goatlomen: I
think I have paid for medicines and medical
treatment during th3 list twenty years all of
three 1 luuHRnd dollars, without receiving ai-s
permanent benefit.
Last May wai'e taking a Turkishibath at 17
Beacon street, a young mia employed there by
the name of Wra Corbett induced me to allow
him to apply a preparation that he hud upon me.
assuring mo that it was perfectly harmless, and
for a certain consideration ho would cure me
within thirty days from the time h i commenced.
In case I10 failed to do so I was to pay him noth*
I consented and ho appliol it nearly every
day for five weeks when the disease entirely
disappeared. I very cheerfully paid him the
amount agreed up u, and then asked him what
tbo remedy was. and ha replied that it was none
other than l utneuru.
Since that time I have had no trouble from
Jhis disease, and inve not had such good health
in twenty y ears as I have had during tho last
x months
I have since ra7 recovery bought Cuticura and
given it to friends sufferirg with skin diseases,
and in every instance it has cured them. I be-
l eva it to be tho greatest remedy of tlio present
century.
