Railroad Meeting.
Tlic citizens of Chattooga, Walker,
Floyd and Chattanooga, are earnestly re
quested to meet in Summerville, Saturday
28th inst., in the Railroad interest as set
forth in a communication signed “Rail
road,” in this issue. Ret all come that
feel interested.
The New Orleans grand jury have
found true hills against •). Madison Wells,
TANARUS, C. Anderson, Louis M. Kenner and
G. ( 'asnnave, Returning Board, of Louis
iat.a, of the late election, charging them
with having on the llh of December, 1876,
falsely and feloniously altered and pub
lished ns true, the altered, forged and
counterfeit election returns for I’reiden
tiul electors from the parish of Vernon at
the election of November last, by adding
lf>S votes to each Hayes electors, and
deducting 305 from each of the Tilden
electors.
Troubles never oome single handed, and
so Mr. Hayes finds it. The lowa repub
licans refuse to endorse the President’s
policy, and in view of that fact McCrary,
one of the Cabinet, Ibels himself bound
to resign in justice to his constituents.
So also to relieve the President of some
of his trouble, Mr. Key, Postmaster-
General, thinks it best for him to resign
his postniastership. Then Mr. Hayes
wants Mr. Watts, Agricultural Commis
sioner, to step down and out, but Mr.
Watts wont do his bidding worth a cent,
but will refer it, to the Senate at the
mooting of Congress. Then above all,
the President is irritated over the indict
ment for perjury, of-V\ ells and Anderson,
of Louisiana Returning Hoard notoriety,
by the grand jury of New Orleans.
Peace cometh not of a crowned head,
but a quiet, clear conscience. Can he
have this, when Fraud! Fraud! stares
him in the face by day, and haunts him
in his dreams at night?
Judffe Underwood.
The “local” reporter of the Atlanta
(’oustittUion of the 13th inst., has the
following bit of information:
“It is said that Judge Underwood was
defeated in his race for the convention,
because of the position he took as judge
against certain disorders in Uhattooga
county. Judge Underwood is one of the
very ablest men in Georgia and would
have been invaluable in the convention
and his defeat was u loss to the State.’
To the last paragraph of the above, we
give our cordial ami hearty assent, and
we have never seen or heard anyone call
it in question. Rut in reference to the
first paragraph, the writer lias reckoned
will out his host, and traveled consider
ably outside the record-
This writer asserts “It is said that
Judge Underwood was defeated,“ etc.
Now, can this writer tell us who told him
any such thing? Then did lie tell the
truth when he uttered it? What position
has Judge Underwood taken against evil
doers in Chattooga, at which the people
of the county have taken umbrage? Wo
have been in the county about two years,
and if we have ever heard of anyone be
coming disaffected towards Judge Under
wood for his attempts to punish evil-doers
we are not aware of it.
Hut the writer gives us to understand
that Chattooga defeated the Judge in
his election. Is it possible that the
power of ‘ the little sister”—Chattooga
county —is thus, at last, openly ucknowl
edged? lint did net the Judge’s own
county, yea, even his own city, (Itome,)
have m un tiling to do with his defeat?
Why did not Judge Underwood get a
better vote in Homo? Why was it that
Chattooga’s eountytnan, Judge Samuel
Hawkins so far out stripped him in
Home? Then look at the ounty vote.
Did not Chattooga give him as good a
vote in proportion to her voting popula
tion as Floyd? And did not Chattooga
eivi him ns good in propoition as Ih.rtow?
lake up tlie official returns and contrast
them, ,-n and see if Chattooga is any more
to be censured than the Judge's own city
and county', or than Hat-tow.
Chattooga is a law abiding county, and
it.-, citizens desire all evil doors and of
lenders brought to justice and they will
sustain the Judiciary in doing bis duty.
Hereafter, let new paper writers and
censurers be e refill how they throw
stones, lest they lay blame where it does
not attach.
Homestead.
\\ e do not believe there should be a
distinction made where there is no dilfer
ene<-. Hut there i- quite a di-tinction
made in the present homestead law; nr
at least the homestead law allow-: a great
deal more than the exemption law gives
one. Now, we have often asked outsell
the question: Why not place every man
upon the same equality before the law?
Why a.low a rich man so much more
t.linu a pool- man? Here are two m-.-n;
both -are pressed to pay their debts. The
one avails himself of the ¥.'1,000, homo
stead; the other see exemption under
20-10 of the code, w hich allows him about
a year’s prnvisi n and a scantily moity ol
hou-c bold nud kitchen furniture, worth
not over, plobi.ldy, S2OO all toi l.
W hy not require every debtor to give
tip all 1-ut this amount, mid let tin-re be
no and (lerem-e? If one i compelled to
give up a I but a year’s mi ten.nice, why
not tin; other? Is this just? I this
righto, u ■?
This explains why them is such a
clamor against the homestead all over the
State. let there bo but nno law in the
State to govern in the premises, then dis
satisfaction on this seme will cease. For
as long as the law di criminate.- between
man and man, so long wil discontent reign
among us. And whosoever will take the
lead and have this bum- of contention
erased from the fundamental iawol'tho
land, will be held in grateful and evei
lusting reuicinbr*nee by all well me tiling
people in our commonwealth.
The Convention Assembled.
The delegates elect to the Constitution
al Convention, assembled in Atlanta on
Wednesday the I I lb iiist-, and effeete 1 all
organization by the election of lion.
Charles .1. Jenkins, by acclamation, as
Fro.-Merit, Col. J. C. Nishct of Dade as
Secretary, and Absolom Johnson, door
keeper.
'I lie address of the lion President, on
assuming the chair, was wise, timely and
very suggestive.
Quite n spirited discussion en-uod upon
a motion to appoint, a chaplain, and to
pay him for it. It was quite evident the
delegates thought the laird's part in the
convention, ought to be free gratis-for
nothing, and so the praying was arranged
for upon that plan. But the time spent
in discussing the matter, cost money
enough to have paid a chaplain good
living wages.
Hon. A. R. Lawton was elected Vice-
President, than whom, there is not n
superior path unentarian in the State.
Various standing committees were ap
pointed, to whom should be referred all
matters coming before the Convention,
and to report thereon.
The following persons have been ap
pointed Chairman of the sevetal Com
mittees: L. J. Garlrell, Executive De
partment; A. It. Wright, Elective Fran
chisc; Janies L. Seward, Bill of Rights:
A. H. Lawton. Judiciary; Robt. Toombs,
Legislative Department; R, B. Nisbit,
Militia; T. J. Simmons, Finance, Taxa
lion and Public Debt; S. W. Harris,
Public Institutions; James M. Mobley,
Counties and County Officers; P. M.
Mynatt, Homestead > and Exemptions;
Alula Johnson, Laws ol* General Opera
tion; W. T. Thompson, Amendments of
Constitution and Miscellaneous Pro
visions.
Various Resolutions and Ordinances
have been offered, and referred to the
appropriate Committees, all looking to a
lull revision of the Constitution, and a
return to the more primative order of
State affairs.
Should the Convention s-em to out
siders to move slowly, let no one be too
ready to censure or oondeuin, for the work
before them is one requiting much and
deep thought, and a thorough interchange
of views, and is a work of such vast im
portance demanding thorough investiga
tion, a.id one that is to he felt by unborn
generations, yea, so great is it, that the
word “haste" should be entirely discarded
during its deliberations.
The Convention
Now that the Convention is in session,
a lively interest will be felt by every tax
payer in Georgia to know what they will
do, mid what radical changes will be
wrought iri the organic law of the Slate.
Retrenchment and reform have been
preach ul from the mountains to the sca
■ board, and now all a:o anxious to sec
what potent measures of economy will
he put forth by the grave representatives
of the people who have promised so
much.
From the Home (Jonrir.r and other ex
changes, we lied a bold and clamorous
demand made that the number of mem
bers in our IcgLlntilro shall lie curtailed
from Our present number (210) to not
more titan 100, which, \v<; are inclined to
think, would be a move certainly in the
right direction, and would meet with a
welcome and joyous sanction from every
intelligent voter. Reasoning front analogy
we think if the great Slate of Now York
with three or four times the population
of Georgia, and with ten or twelve times
its wealth, has all of her varied cuunurr
oial, agricultural and manufacturing in
(crests attended by a legislature of only
100 members, why cannot the same num
ber of intelligent, well-selected legislators
be entrusted with our interest? Let any
reflecting man ponder this subject fora
moment and be convinced of its feasibility.
Why continue this vast horde of sur
plus members at $7 per diem to attend
to matters which a smaller number can
do more efficiently and for a less sum?
Those are questions w hich should he ma
turely con-idered, and meniheis of the
convention should be candidly informed
what arc the wishes of their constituents,
and they should then govern themselves
accordingly.
A mcinberofOongrc-s in some instances
i- elected front a dozen or more counties.
This the 7th district is composed of four
teen. A good man elected from several
counties to the bouse, and about
two .Senators from each Congressional
district, would give abundant represent.-!
lion, and let the legislature not meet
of letter than every two years, with other
changes which the wisdom of the conv. n
tion will (naot, will, we fee! sure, place
our State once more on tjie high road to
prosperity. No con-titution however
well Iratned and suited in other respect
will! he njocptablc to the gn at mass ol
voters if the present number of our legis
lators, is eoninued at the present per
diem. The people are now terribly in
earnest for one time, and w ill not brook
disappointment.
The ‘'Georgia State I lortieultural So
cicty’ will hold its second annual session
in .Macon, commencing Wednesday, Au
gust Ist. All who are interested in pro
moting the fruit producing interest of
Georgia, and other objects of the society,
which appertain to the dissemination of
the knowledge ot the science and art of
horticulture, and the encouragement ot
the production of fruits and vegetables,
both for home consumption and (or mar
ket, are cordially invited to attend, and
bring with them such fruits, vegetables
and flowers as they may desire for ex
hibition.
We have been favored by Commissioner :
Janes, with circular No. 41, consolidation
of reports of crops, etc., for the month ol
June. It shows an improvement in the
corn crop in North Georgia, which is J
placed at 103, and the whole State an
average at 5)8; while the cool weather
prevailing east winds in May, drouth and
cut worms have conspired to produce an
averago of the cotton crop. The average
of the oat crop is 82, with a yield of 13
bushels per acre, while the wheat crop is
the best for many years of the past.
What energy and perseverance can do,
may be seen in the following item trout I
the Danville Sews:
“Twelve years ago Richmond, with j
45,000 inhabitants, lay half in ruins. Now
she has rebuilt the whole of the burnt;
eistrict, has established 200 factories, and
with a population of 75,000 people is the i
handsomest city in the world. Norfolk
ships near 1,000,000 bales this year, and i
has developed a trade in vegetables, fruit
and fish which has extended through our
great Northern cities, across the Atlantic
and has increased the value of lands in
the adjacent counties many hundred fold.”
An exchange says: “A son of the late
John (’. Breckinridge is about to marry
a daughter ot Lloyd Tevis, reputed to be
the richest man in California.”
Well, suppose he does marry her; what
of it? lh) riches make a good wife? Job
was one of the riches men jf the east, in
his day; and he had a woman the mother
of his ten children, yet for all that, she
was not much wife. There is a vast deal
of difference between a woman and a wife.
Tis not riches that make the husband or
wife; tis not riches that bring peace,
quiet and happiness to the home.
The report that Gov. Nieholls bad
pledged himself in advance to pardon
those Returning Hoard fellows in case of
conviction of felony, is hardly a presum
able ease. For we Jo-not think him such
a fool as to subject himself to impeach
ment by any such proceeding.
Whither are “the powers that be’
drifting? When Mr. Ilayes, the fraud
ulent President, learned that the Louisi
ana Returning Board, that had assisted
in counting him in as President, were in
dieted by a New Orleans grand jury lor
their disregard of right and justice by
perjury, the President called to his coun
sel ex-Governor Brown, of Tennessee,
Wayne MeVeagh and Gen. Joseph K.
Hawley to confer whether anything could
be done to prevent i rr stave oft a prose
cution-
’t he Cabinet in session attempts to cut
the Oordcan knot, and not to untie it.
Hence, they determine in solemn conclave
that there is “no warrant for the crimi
nal prosecution of Weils, Anderson,
Kenner and Cascnave.” Is not this the
extreme of tom-foolery for the President
and his Cabinet to set themselves up as a
court of justice to I'cfiue and decide points
of law? But there is method in their
madness. For if these Returning Board
fellows are criminals, then is Hayes
pattr/H iriminis io their transactions,
and should be dealt with accordingly.
Oil! Mr. Ilayes, by wliat a precarious,
fraudu ent tenure is your title to the
Presidency held. Thou (indent trouble
and sorrow all along thy pathway.
A Washington correspondent of the
Boston lost, says:
“Since the departure of the Presiden
tial putty for 80.-ton. to-day, it hits been
asserted that Hayes is exceedingly anxious
to have a reception so enthusiastic that it
shall wipe out ail remembrance of the
cold shouldering he received at New
York and Philadelphia
Is it possible that Mr. Hayes can have
the presumption to think tor a moment
that any “reception," howsoever “en
thusiastic,” coull ever obliterate from
his “remembrance” the fact that he was
“counted in,” not elected President ol
the I cited States? No doubt he lias ox
lierieneed much to his discomfort, that
“the way ol the transgressor i- hard;'
that his fraudulently attained Presiden
tial bed, is not all of roses and sweet per
fumes, but that many a thorn lies be
neath to disturb his rest, and many dis
agreeable odors arise therefrom offensive
to his moral olfactories.
‘•Fa r or< tru** joy M.irownr' uxiltul
Than ('insar with a Senate at hist In-eU."
Well may Mr. Ilayes tremble upon
his Presidential throne, when he hears
the muttering thunders in the gathering
clouds in all quarters of the political
horizon. What will lie do, when Con
gress assembles and begins to expend its
lightning flashes upon him.
