MESPAT STEM OCT. HUi. 1885,
FROM ATLANTA.
There wns a very stubborn content in
the houae over the railroad ermtni-sion
bill between those who s»ishetl so allow
an anneal from the comnilesion to the
qonrtß, and those who did not.
The bill to require insurance companies
to pay the full sum for which bouses to
plly destroyed are injured (known as the
Valued policy bill) was warmly discussed.
The house passed a bill incorporating
(he Guarantee Banking and Safe Compa
ny, of Atlanta, making each stockholder
liable to depositors for twice his stock.
The senate changed it, making each
stockholder liable for ail the deposits.
The house refused to o incur. This is
true also of the Mechanics' and 1 raders
Bank. The senate finally recoded from
its amendments.
Both |iouses have agreed to adjourn to
morrow.
There is considerable talk ofa coalition
between the independents, led by Dr.
Bolton, and the Republicans, led by John
fc. Bryant. The object, as given out, is
to disrupt the Democratic party, by dis
aensions concerning the railroad oomniia

Editor Careite:
I notice that most, if not all this fu-s
raised about an act being passed at the
present si ting of the legislature whereby
all may be forced to make an equitable
return of taxable property, is confined to
the editors of different joui nals through
out the st.qp, I believe you not excepted.
Whv don’t some of your body suggest
some plan whereby it might be remedied?
(Mr. Ilidell, for instance, who seems at
present most greatly concerned.) I can’t
see that changing this law, or any
legislation upon tho same, would reach
any class with any degree of certgipty
other than (he farmers; then it does seem
’tis intended for them, making more op
pressive the already excessive load they
have to carry. Suppose, for instance,
an officer be appointed whose special bus
inoss it is to assess each and < very one's
property. When he oouios to 'ho land
lord, ho cun with some certainty arrive ut
the true value of both real »nd perisha
ble property, thereby making him pay
tux upon tho fyll value of his effects: but
when he comes to placing a proper value
upon the goods of a merchant, a drug
list, a jewelry m m, Ao , how near do you
suppose he oan arrive at the aotual value
of these goods? He couldn't invoice; that
w<,u!d be out of the question; then how
is he to at rive at the t roper value of
these goods? Or in making any other
change in this law, how are we to get at
tho full value of this class of men's prop
erty? Simply by doing with them as they
at present do with the farmer; taking
their word for it'. Therefore I’m oppos
ed to any legislation upon this sulject,
unless it would reach all ola-ses alike;
and looking at it from this standpoint, 1
am forced to believe that all thia parade
about equitable return of property, etc.,
is intended only for the farmer, who al
ready pays out more, at.d gets less in re
turn, than any other class of men upon
the face of the earth. It does seem, ii a
man upon oath will not place a just value
upon his picperty, that the officer to
whom it has been returned, or some one
ui of so large a body as the grand jury,
might bo able to discover the wrong, and
right the same. Don’t believe me to be
opposed to means by which all would have
to make a just return of all taxable prop
erty. On the contrary, 1 would be high
ly pleased wiih the lime. But I do be
lieve farmers come nearer giving in the
full value of all their property than ■ny
other class; therefore 1 am opposed to
any legislation which would tend to i •
crease their tax, and reach no other cl s,
1 can't sec how any other law which
might bo passed would reach any diss
but the farmers with any degree of cer
tainty. '1 hen what is all this fu-s about,
if it is not to lay a little more upon the
farmer, in order to ease the country’s in
debtedness? It secuis, any way, that the
plan now worked upon the farmer is—

keep 'em humble.” J. V. W.

THEY DANCED.
Some thirty or forty years ago, when
almost all of this section w>is a wilder
. ness, two young farmers were resting from
work and taking their dinner ar the ford
of Dry creek, just below Hardaway. A
traveler on horseback came along, and,
dismounting aear the boys, proee-i ded to
take his noon lurch. When I e had fin
ished and was about jo move off, he was
thus addressed by the young men:
‘‘See here, stranger, we never let a
man pass this way without makjng him
dance. 'Now you just shtffl ■ it off in
style or you can’t go another 'not.”
The amazed stranger saw that they
meant business and (be dancing bad to
be done. To make the best of it he sajd,
1 “Well, I can dance better if we all take
' a4r nk before I begin. Won't yon both
take something.” That just suited them.
• Turning to his saddlebugs, which hung
1 ac.oss his horse, he suddenly drew out a
' dangerous looking revolver, and leveling
it on the two jolly farmers, said:
• “Now you two just go to dancing or
' I'll put balls through you in quick or
der. Dance.”
r They danced. Irish Billy Dunn, late
of Colquitt county, and Alien Faircloth,
■ of thiscrumy, have often tol l that thev
■ were near enough to the muzzle of that
B pjntol to see the balls. Allen says the
r balls looked a« though they were coming
- out ami going through him. The trouble
r was they both were barefooted, and had
’ to dance on the stubble of burnt broom-
• sedge, and their feet were almost bleed-
• trig, and Allan stammered so that he
‘ couldn’t even beg the stranger to let him
■ off. They never tried to make another
■ trav. ler dance- They made that prom-
• ire to the stranger and kept it.—Camilla

THE ARMSTRONG SCANDAL.
From recent developments, it seems
• that Dr. Armstrong, the eminent divine
3 of Atlanta, has been the victim of a deep-
laid scheme to ruin him. A lawyer from
Richmond, Va , who was once denied
admission into Dr. Armstrong’s church
on account of his bad diameter, met Dr
" A. in Cincinnati, where be lawyer had
' moved. He informed Di A. that a niece
’ of his had arrived in Cincinnati from
‘ Richmond, Va.. and was in a house of
• ill fume, but could not inform him of rhe
name of the house of wbiqh his niece was
an inmate. Dr. Artnstong immediately
1 procured a hack and stalled in pursuit of
his fallen relative, and, after visiting
several houses of bad character, found
bis niece and brought her away witli
him. I'lie Richuiond Itiwier and scoun
-1 drel in the meantime was r.ot idle. He
had sworn lu be revenged on Dr. Arm
strong for not admitting him into his
church, and put the blood-thirsty report
ers on his track, and tie late scandal is
the result, 'll.e law er who put up this
diabolical job ou Dr. Armstrong should,
if there is atty law in Ohi i. get the lull
ben Ct of it.— Atheni Banner- H’atcA
