Unfortunately the regiments in Iaiia

Teaicrday the early telegrams announc

pression that tho New Tork Democrats
had hushed their quarrels and compro

Jacobs refused to run—Robinson was
nominated; Tammany seceded, nominat

Apparently a general explosion had taken
place, to be folic-ed by a violent inter
necine struggle between Tammaay and
tne outside Democracy.
What other arrangements, if any, may
be made between now and elec'.ion day
it is impossible to tell, but the present

Thb KilIiIho Nbab Adaibstillb.—
About five miles from Adairaville was the
.oeue of one of the most dreadful affairs
that has taken plaoe in the history of onr
oonoty, which resulted in the death of
Mr. William Hollin, a yonog gentleman
of sterling worth, at the hands of Mr.
Henry Davis, a neighbor of Hollin. Tne
followmg is a statement of the affair a -
near ue we oould learn :
It seems that Hoilm, with his sisters,
was at church last Sunday night and at
the dismissal of it, Davis asked one of
the Missea Hoilm for the permission to
accompany her home, wnio'n was refused.
On the way from church, Davis followed
the Hollin party, who were with a
party of ladies aud gentlemen, coming
out from tho woods beh*nd and before
the party at intervals. When tue Hollin
pir;y separated from the rest, Hollin ap
proached Davis and asked him what he
meant by such conduct, and Davis re
plied. “I mean; no harm at whit I have
done, bat if yon take exceptions at it, you
have a poor way of helping yourself.” At
this Hollin slapped him in .the breast
with the back of bis hand, to which Da
vis retottel by pulling out his pocket
knife and cuoiiuenced cu'.ting Hcllto, in
dicting six different wonnde. Hollin
was cut three tirn.s in the left brea.-t near
the heart, the other three did not pene
trate very deep. Tne first that was
known of theufftirlo a party of young
men, who were about twenty or thirty
yards from the sc t ue war when Hollin
. lid, "Beys,I am cut,and badly cut, too,”
and while uttering the expression, he
fell. Tne youug ladies who were about
the same durance as tne young men,
came running to the 6Cene, but young
Hollin told them no: to come there but
■‘goand tell father.’’ Davis was oiught
and carried to the proper authorities by
a coup’e of young men, whiie the r-.e:
were engaged in carrying young Hollin
h -me. Mr. Hollin lingered in the toils
of death until Tuesday morning about
8 o’clock, when death relieved him of his
,ains. The coroner held an inquest
over his body yesterday, but what the
verdict was we are not prepared to say.
Cidar Grove District, Walker county,
is a land of fatness. It made.this year
21,200 bushels of wheat, with a propor

The Rome gas works are to be recon

pacity to supply a city of 20,000 inhabi

Chop Rspcbt—The Albany News makes
a gloomy one, as follows:
Mr. J. L. Dozier, of Ducket’s Station,
reports that the caterpillar is doing much
damage, ani will strip all cotton in two
weeks’ time. Thinks about Sve-eigbtbB
or two-thirds of a crop will be made.
Mr. D. eaya he does not believe in poiEOns.
In 1372 he spent *500 in poisons for de
stroying the caterp liar, but it did not
pr-.-veat them from ruining his crop. Tne
ucll worm has damaged him Borne, as has
aLo the rust. Thinks about two-thirds
of a corn crop has been made; the pea
crop not bo good, bat cane and potatoen
are first rate. Tna psople in his section
are somewhat discouraged, bnt making
ihe best possible out of tbeir unfavorable
ctreu instances.
Reports are confiding as to crops in
Calhoun. Some report pretty fair pros
pect, others s.y it will be tne poorest
yield of cotton and corn known in the
county for years; cane end potatoes good.
Great deal of grain will be pu: in this
lull; and farmers will do everything in
their power to supplement the Bhort corn
crop and to make hog an 1 hominy at
home.
Health of the county good compared
to what It til- la-t year.
The co'.:oD fields alone the A. and G.
R. R., between this point and C.mi.la,

the bare staiks tell a pitiful tale. Scarce

ravages of the worm. A gentl.-man in
Oamula told os tnere was ‘‘not a green
l-*f ot cotton in Mitchel county and
car observation go-s far to confirm his
statement.
From Baker county come most gloomy
reports. M s-ra. F.eming, Davis, Coucn,
Galloway, Solano and o’.n re state posi
tively :nat not more man one-ih’.rd of a
crop can be garnered, so severe are toe

Frank A. Smith Shot akd Killed.—
Ou Saturday evening last, lit Goldsboro,
this county,Frunk A. Smith became of
fended at some trivial act of a negro man,
end not getting satisfaction, he got two
or tnree of his friends to acc-mpaoy him
to the negro’s house oa Saturday night.
Tney were a'.l diegu.-ed, and it seems
thrj w-.nt for toe purpe <- of whipping
the negro. As soon as they entered the
negro's house, his wife raised an alarm,
which attracted the atttnriocof Messrs.
John Doualscn and 0. Smith, who were
i-erting np with a sick pereon near
by. They went out to the negro’s house
and disouvered two men dragging ot the
negro’s wife, while others were in the
house searching for the man, who, it
seems, was hiding under the bed. As
soon as Messrs. Donalson and Smith were
di-covered, the parties witn the woman
commenced shooting at them. This at
tracted the attention of the party in the
bonee, and on coming to the door, they
also commenced shooting. Messrs. Don-
ulson and Smitn claim that they were
unarmtd, and the verdict of the coroner’s
jury, we understand, is to the effect that
Frank A. Smith was killed by some one
in the house, through mistake.
Let Oor Leohlators Do Their Du
rr —We have noticed for several weeks
past that a few newspaper correspond
ents and the editors of some of the lead
ing papers of the State are growing rest
less under the protracted session of tho
General Assembly, and, that when “more
investigation” is hinted at, they at onoe
sneer at and ridicule the Investigation
committees. When it ia ascertained
that the acts and doings of some State
officials are to be looked into or investiga
ted, those correspondents and editors at
onoe cry ont in behalf of the overburden
ed tax payers. Now, we believe the pao-
ple—the taxpayers—are f ally satisfied
with the actions of the investigating oom-
mitlets. If there is “frand and corrup
tion in high plaoea” they—the people—
want it unearthed, and they will not be

It any of onr trnstod servants are
gnilty of orookedness in their official aots,
wo say let them be exposed and held to
aoconnt.
Under the new constitution, only bien

held. The pay of onr legislators is only
four dollars per diem, and we oan better
afford a session ot twelve months dura

official oiroles.
We hope onr legislators will do their

The Corn Crop of Pulaski.—The
drouth injured the corn crop in this
county to some extent, but according to
the reports we hear, wo are led to believe
that a majority of our farmers will make
plenty of corn to ran them another year.
Mr. G. C. Mitthewe, from one and three-
fourtbs aorcs of common pine land, fer
tilized with only a handful of cottonseed
to the hill, gathered fifty bushels of good
bosvy ooro, aad although he was in the
dry 3treak, he says his corn crop ia as
good as any he ever made. He attrib
utes his tuccess this year to deep and
thorough culture.
Mrs. D. C. Burkhalteb, of Americas,

Jack Brown, formerly of that place.
He. Wm. Mulhkbbin, a shoe dealer of

"is perhaps the largest shipiu-nt of

The Berrien county News is informed
by Mr. A. M. Shaw that "tcera is a pine
tree on ou of his place.! which is grow

fifeeen fret from the ground. Somo time
ago thi3 tree was blown from its perpen
dicular attitude and lodged against an
other pine tree near by. 8ome time
after, the woods were burnt off, and this
tree caught on fire and burned about fif
teen feet from the ground. Notwitn-
-tasding it has no hold on mother earth,
it ia growing as vigorously as the tree to
which it is now hanging.
Tnis is the first tim- we ever heard of

From the Atlanta Constitution.J
The committee to examine into the of
fice of the State Treasury, made the fol-
lowing reports this morning:
MiJORITT BIPOBr.
Mr. Speaker: Too special committee of
nine, appointed under a resolution of the
Hou-e, with instructions “to investigate
thoroughly and completely the affairs and
operations of the TreaEury Department
of the State," beg leave to report:
That they have proceeded to the per
formance cf the caties assigned them,
and have instituted a thorougn examina
tion into the operations of the Treasury
Department. This examination they are
still prosecuting, but hive not yet com
pleted, and they beg leave to submit at
a later period their report up n the gen
eral workings and condition of the Treos
my.
The committee have found at tbe very
threshold of th-.ir investigations sucb
conclusive evidencs of malfeasance in
cffice by J. W. Renfroe, Treasurer of the
State, tna*. they feel it their imperative
duty to lay the same before the House,
witnout delay, in this special report.
Tne testim ny taken by the committee
discloses the foliowing facts: Ia Jmuary,
1S76. J. W. Renfroe w 3 s et -cr-d ny tne
G - .' ral A- sembly of this S ,.te to fi:l tne
unexpired term of John Jones, who nad
oe-n removed.
In J inuary, 1877, he w is re-elected
Treasurer by tm Gen ral As-emhiy for
he full term of four year-. Among tbe
-urpies who signed his official bon] us
Tieisar- r iu 1876, w c re V. K. Xommey,
B. J. Wilson, 3. B. HoiR H. Rich
ards and J. W. Murphy. Tue-e
-ame genUem-n with the excep
tion of S. B. Hoyt and R. H. Richard",
again agned ih# T— sorer'# boed
ut:er his re-election in lo77. Uud-r the
*.e:m; cf th-. sc’, of 137»5 allowing the
sureties on the Treasurer’.- bond to limit
their iuoiluy, V. R Tommev bound
-im-eii n -be bond oi 1876 for #30.000,
B J. W.Lon for J30.0O0, 8. B. H. ,t for
*30 000, R. H. R:. ' l-iis for $30,000, and
J. W. Murphy io: (5,000. Oa the oond
f 1677, V. R. Torn my brand himself
for (60 000, B. J. Wilson for $10,000, and
J. W. Murphy for $30,000.
A*, tne due of the execution of the
bond of 1876, Ur. Tommsy was presi
dent and B. J. Wilson a director of the
Georgia Banking and Trust Company, of
A.iania, both also being large stockhold
ers therein. Mr. Hoyt was president
and Mr. Richard" was cashier cf the At
lanta Savings Bank, and tsgetner they
owned about one-half of the enure capi
tal stock thereof. Tneae four sureties
signed the bond ot 1876. upon the condi
tion, assented to by tne Treasurer, that
they ur certain of them should select par
ticular banks in which the Trea J urer
a coaid deposit the public money, or ai
le"st a large portion thereof. Ia pursu
ance of this agreement, the
Georgia Banking and Trust Com-
p-my, in which the Treasurer was
already depositing, and the Atlanta Sav
ings Bank were selected by them, and
the Treasurer proceeded to deposit
therein la r ge amounts of the 8:ate funds.
For the use of these State d- posits, the
Georgia Banking and Trust Company
paid on the average monthly b Irucee a
commis- oo or intere-t of five per con',
per annum, the Daymenrs being made
monthly to Mr. B. J. Wilson, who paid
over to tne Treasurer two percent, there
of, and divided the remainder equally be
tween himself and V. R. Tornmjy. Tnis
continued until th • early part of 1877,
when Mr..Wilson withdrew from the ar
rangement, after which, said bink paid
Mr. Tommey for the year IS77 tho fixed
earn of $1,500 for the use of too Statb
deposits, and for the year 1878 the same
percentage thereon as for 1876. the3e
payments being ma le to Mr. Tom me/, who
paid over to the Treasurer one-third o;
the entire amount, except the list pay
ment for 1878, of which tho Treasurer re
ceived no p irt.
F.t a like use of the public lands de
posited therein, the Atlinta Savings
Bank. duriDg the year 1876, paid to B.
J. Wilson two per cent, per annum on
the average monthly balances as commis
sion or intere-t thereon, and this entire
amount eo received by Mr. Wilson, wa3
by him paid to the Treasurer. This con
tinued until the early part of 1877,
when Mr. Wilson withdr.w from the ar
rangement, and a new agreement was
made by the bank with Mr. J. W. Mur
phy. As has been stated, Mr. Murphy
signed the M'reaEurer’a bond in 1876,
binding himself for $5,000, and again in
1877, binding himself for $30,000.
In February, 1876, he was appointed
by the Trsa-urer, Clerk in the Treasury,
and that position he has held from that
date continuously up to the present time.
10 the aerly part of 1877, Mr. Murphy
applied to the Treasurer to be allowed to
make with certain banks in Atlanta an
arrangement similar to that made by
the other sureties with the bank already
named.
To this the Treasnrer assented, and
with his permission Mr. Murphy con
tracted with the Citizens’ Bank, the
Bank of the S'ate of Georgia and the
Atlanta Savinge Bank, that they should
pay him (Murphy) five per cent, per an
num on the average monthly balances of
the public deposits—Mr. Murphy agree
ing on biB part that the Treasurer should
deposit Urge Bums of the public money
in said banks. These payments, as com-
oommisstons or interest for the nse of
the State’s fund, were all made to Mr.
Murphy, and one-half of the entire
amount received by him was paid over
to the Treasurer. The testimony further
discloses that about the first week in No
vember, 1878, by direction of tho Treas
urer, the payments from all the
banks on this account were discontin
ued. By an examination of the evidence
it will be seen that under the arrange,
meats above detailed, the four bankt
named have paid t-o tbo treasurer and
three of bis sureties the large sum of
$22,198.65 for the use of public money
deposited with them. Of this amount
the Treasurer received fur his share the
sum of $10,358.81, the remainder having
been received by the three sureties, as
follows: Mr. Wilson receiving $650 41;
Mr. Tommey receiving $582 IX, and Mr
Murphy receiving $6,607.32. Of the
amount received by the Treasurer, $5,-
058 19 was paid to him prior to Decem-
5, 1877, and $5,800,62 was paid subse
quent io that date. Tnis money was re
ceived by the Treasurer for his individ
ual benefit and converted to bis own
nee with tte fall knowledge on his part
that it was paid by ihe-e tianks for tbe
use cf the funds of the S:ate deposited
with them by him. The Treasurer,
however, claims that in receiving this
money be has not violated tho law or
been unfaithful to his official duty, for
the reason that it was stipulated and
agreed between bimeelf and his sureties
-and . o understood by the back-, that no
paiticuLr eums were to ba depos ed, no
pacticul.r time specified tor his deposits
to remain, and tbe entire amount in each
bink to be subject to the check
at any and all times. The tea-
t niooy bhows this to have te.-n
the uni rtaking and kjresment
ont Ihe oominii.ee are of tbe op aion that
in this matter the Treasurer bus been
guilty of a plain, direct and palpable vio
lation .of the law at a breaoh of his effi-
cial duty. Prior to tho adoption of the
present constitution the law controlling
this question is contained in the eleventh
paragraph of aeotion 12 of the act of the
General* Assembly, approved February
25, 1875, which is iu the-e words : "The
Treasurer shall not, under nuy circum
stance?, nse himself, or allow others to
ns s, the funds of the State in his hands,
and for every viol it: on of this seotion he
ia Labia to the State for tbe earn cf five
hundred dollars us a penalty, or a for
feiture of hid salary, if each forfeiture will
piy th • penal y icaurred.’’ While,
merc-forc, it is true that the stipulations
already recited wore made between
the Treasurer, tbe sureties sad the banks,
and were intended to meet the Is ter of
ibis law, yet the contr.sut between the
aarciie! and the bank i for the paymeot
to the snretie i of interest on tne Slate
deposits, and the receiving by the Treas
urer of bis portion of tbo-e payments, is
clearly and unqu--,!iun-bly a violation of
the law in its spirit sod iiuostaocs.
Again, more than one half the entire
amount received by tho Treasurer from
this source was paid to him subsequent j
to the 5th day ot December, 1877, m
which day the present Conetilutiou wan
ratified and adopted by the people, and
became the organic law of thiB State, and
whatever justification or excuse may be
set up by the Treasurer, under the lar.
gunge of the statute just cited, he cex.
laiuly could not mistake or misconstrue
the plain, pojitive and comprehensive
provision ot the Constitution npon this
subject. Paragraph five of section t»o
of urtiole five ot that instrument pro
vides that “the Treasurer snail not bs
allowed, directly or indirectly, to receive
any fee, interest or reward from any per.
son, bank or corporation for deposit or
nse m any manner ot the public funds,
and the General Assembly sball enforce
thie provision by enitable penalties.
Again, piragrap'n 1 of seotion 9 of arti
cle 7 provide! that "The receiving, di
rectly or indirectly, by any officer of the
State or connty, or m.mber or officer of
the Geoeral Assembly of any interest,
profits nr perquisites arising from the
use or loan of public funds in his hands,
or moneys to be raised through his agency
for State or connty purposes shall be
deemed a felony and punishable as may
be prescribed by law, a part of which
punishment ch-il be a disqualification
from bolding office.” The mere reading
of these two provisions of onr supreme
11 v is sufficient. Tbeyneed no legisla
tion to make them operative in their pro
hibitory poser. The Treasurer has un-
questionably done what they clearly for
bid, and in thus violating deliberately
tne plain and positive prohibition cf
the Con-titu i.n, he has, in opinion of
tue Committee, been guilty of a high
crime aad mitd-meinor. ine testimony
turther shows that the Treasurer, for
-■going officially the coupons on the
bonds of tbe Northeastern railroad com-
pmy, indorsed by the State, chsrgrd said
railroad company therefor 1( per cent,
per coupon, and did, on the set-ond day of
Janaary, 1878. receive from officers of the
company $217 in payment of tnat claim,
which sum ,f money he converted to his
own use and benefit. Tne committee
kno v of no law which jastifi.-d tnis cmrge
on the part of tne Treasurer, and if Inert
be lmv.cuvtom or p eceieot on wrich the
eharge can be surUmtd, the constitution
-gain interposes and prohibits tbe Treas
urer from receiving this money for bis
own u»e. Such is the plain language of
paragraph =even, eection two ot article
five, wtnoh is in tne fo'lowing words:
“Tne Secretary of state, the Comptroller
General and tne Treasurer shall not bs
allowed perquisites or compensation other
than their salaries, as;prescribed by law,
except their necessary expenses when
absent from tbe seat of Government on
bnsiness for the State.” I: is also pro
vided by section eleven of the act ot 1876
I that the Treasurer shall receive no per
quioife for any cffi.'Ui aef, but thrt th_-
tees prescribed by law shall h" by hitu
oollected and paid inio the Stai • Treasu
ry. The committee -ire tn- ref ore ot the
opinion that in this transaction also, the
Treasurer has clearly violated tbe law aud
the plain provision of the constitution.
Again, it appears from the teit.mony
that some time in th • early part o; the
present year, tne Treasurer, while ia the
city of Augusta, applied to General E P.
Alexander, President of the Georgt i Rail-
roid, for a position uni.-* said Company,
for one cf his, the Treasurer’s, persona!
friends, proposing m re'urn therefor to
di p. sit in the bank of rad Company large
amount" of tne public mousy, the sum tc
▼ary from fifty thousand to one hundred
thousand dollar.-*. Tte evidence shows
that the negn'.iation was for some reason
not consummated, but the Committee
are of he opinion that the Treas
urer, in thus attempting to use
his official power nnd position for the
benefit aud advancement of hi-personal
friend has been gnilty of a gross breach
of ms offiaial only aad has been unt-ne
to the high trust reposed io him. The
Oommittee therefore recoa-mended that
the said J. W. Renfroe, treasnrer of
Georgia, be dealt with aocording to tbs
constitution aad laws ot the 3 ate for his
tnalfeusanoe in office as above recited and
set forth. To that end they eabmit here
with the tostimony taken by them and
whioh has already been printed and laid
before Jlte House, together with the
exhibits thereto attached, and also a re
script of tbs proceedings of tne cimmit-
tes; sod they farther submit to the House
the following resolutions, which they re
commend be adoptee:
Resolved. Ta it J. W. Rsnfroe, treasnr

mittee on tha Jcdiciary, with instruc

The Chinese are rsp'dly multiplying in this

the effrontery even to trench on the sacred

to tailoring. Taey have not yet made them-
ee’.ves stffic’ently familiar wnh the English

It is tuppueei that many of these China
