(fcj)c (Georgia f)eralb, J I, HILL & J. I). ALEXANDER, F.DIT O n 9 . THOMASTON, OaT'dEC. 18* W. CONGRESS AND GEORGIA. The latest news from Congress in dieates a disposition on the part of that body to postpone action on the Georgia question until after the meet ing of the Legislature in January next. This is much better for us than wa3 first wftticipated, and but confirms U3 in the opinion we advanced last week—-that Congress will not inter fere if the proper steps are taken by the Legislature. And we again say, in our opinion, the members of the Legislature who occupy the seats of the expelled nsgroes should at once resign. If they resign the seats now occupied by them they can ho filled by anew election. But say some, Governor Bullock will not order an election. Suppose he does not, hew will that effect the matter? There will be left in each House more than a quorum, and the legislation neces sary for us during the next year can be done by the remaining members. If the members refered to resign and the Legislature adopts the Fifteenth Amendment, Gov. Bullock, with all of his crowd of disappointed office seekers and slanderers, can never in duce Congress to interfere any furth er. A large number of the Republic can members of Congress are tired of a continuous political strife, especially when further action on the question of reconstruction is an ad mission on their part, that their much boasted and pet scheme of reconstruc tion has failed, and they will not at last, he so easily induced to take ac tion. Judging lrom what lately transpired before the Reconstruction Committee they are pretty well con vinced of Gov. Bullock’s real motive. It is not for the good of the Repub lican party that he urges action on the part of Congress, but it is to give him a little brief power, and place in office men of his choice. AYe cannot believe that Congress, as insane as some of its members are on the negro question, will demand absolutely, that the negroes shall be reseated. Such a course would be contrary to all parlimentary rules and usages, and contrary to rules which govern the proceedings of the courts of justice. The Legislature when it passed judgment upon the expelled members was setting as a court —a court not only competent to try and decide the question, but the very highest tribun al before which the question could have been tried. The question hav ing been tried and determined by a tribunal of competent authority, it can never he reviewed rightfully eith er by the Legislature or any other earthly tribunal. The Legislature may, if the same parties should be elected, declare them competent, and while a decision of this kind would overrule the former one, still it is a new case and cannot affect the former so as to reseat the expelled members. The crisis is upon us and must be met. It is, in our judgment, folly to follow the advice of those who coun sel non action. Non-action, will in the madness of the hour, induce Con* gross to pass the bill now proposed for the persecution of Georgia. But if the question is met by the resigna* tion of the members refered to and the adoption of the Fifteenth Amend ment, which was done at one time and vetoed by the Governor, the Georgia trouble will soon he at an end. The adoption of the Fifteenth Amend' ment is the main object which the present administration desires accom plished, and upon that this whole question can be settled. President Grant in his inaugral ad dress said, u nothing is wanting to complete reconstruction but the adop tion of the Fifteenth Admendment.” Those words were used by the Presi dent long after the negroes had been expelled from their seats in the Legis lature, and when all of the facts and circumstances attending their cxpuL sion were well kr own to him and the party acting with him. President Grant then, according to his own statement, is hound to recognize Georgia as completely reconstructed whenever the Fifteenth Amendment is adopted. * That a majority of the members of Congress will oppose any further action in the Georgia matter when the { resent members who occu py the seats of the expelled negroes resign and the Fifteenth Amend ment is adopted we have no doubt. If then our political troubles can be settled in this way and forever put at rest, certainly the object to be accomplished is well worth an honest effort of every lover of his country. But if after going thus far for the ?nke cf quiet and peace Congress is not satisfied with anything less than reseating the negroes, we say mem bers of the Georgia Legislature, never d* it. Don’t be guilty of the folly and chi M’s play of violating the time ktnored rules and usages of Congress and every deliberative assembly on the face of the earth. But if this last act of brutal tyrany is to be done don’t allow yourselves to be made the tools of its accomplishment. Let Congress do it. And while w T e may feel disappointed and humiliated we should paitiently bide our time. NEW MAIITROUTE. We propose in connection with the people at Pleasant Hill, Belview and Talbotton, to petition the Govern ment for the establishment of anew mail route from Thomaston to Talbot ton via Peasant Hill and Belview. By the present route the mails in go ing from Thomaston to either of the above places passes over one hundred and fifty miles of rail route and sixty miles of hack line. While by the proposed new route, if established, the mails could be carried at a very small cost and with far more conven ience to the people, it being a distance of only twenty-eight miles. With a view therefore to establish the above proposed route we ask the people at Pleasant Hill, Belview and Talbotton, to get up petitions setting forth the facts in regard to the new route lnve it largely signed and send it to us. We desire bids at each place for carrying the mail over this new route, that the Department may be furnished with all of the facts at once. A weekly mail will do, though we prefer a semi-weekly mail. THE GEORGIA. HERALD. Our paper which started only a few days ago has now over four hun dred subscribers, and we desire to in crease it to one thousand soon. And especially do we desire and intend that it shall reach every family in the county of Upson. We therefore ask our subscribers throughout the county to speak a good word for us. Every subscriber can induce his neighbor or friend to take it, and in this way it can be circulated and reach every house in the county. The very low price charged for the paper places it within the reach of nearly all. But if there are any who desire the paper and are not able to pay the subscrip tion price don’t hesitate to let the fact be known by reporting name and post office to us and they shall have the paper without charge. Our pa' per is purely a county enterprise and we desire all to have the benefit of it. STATUTE oFTIMITATION. We give below a synopsis of the late act of the Legislature of this State entitled an act in relation to the statute of limitation and for oth er purposes, approved March lGth, 1869. Pamphlet laws of 1869, pages 133 and 134. The second section provides that all suits upon judgments obtained out of this State prior to June, Ist, 18G5, not now barred and all writs of scire facias to revive judgments obtained in this State which are dormant shall be brought by the first January, 1870. The third section provides that all actions cn bonds or other instruments under seal and all suits for the en forcement of rights accruing under statute shall be brought by the first January, 1870. The fourth section provides that all suits on promissory Dotes, bills of exchange, or open accounts, or for the breach of any contract shall be brought by the first January, 1870. The fifth section provides that all actions against executors, administra tors, guardians or trustees, which ac crued prior to June Ist, 1865 shall be brought by first January, 1870. The sixth section provides that all other actions upon contracts, express ed or implied, or upon any debt or liability whatever, which accrued prior to June 1,1865 shall be brought p v January, 1870. The seventh section povides that all actions for torts of any character whatever, wjien the tort or wrong was cammitted or where the right of action accrued prior to Ist June, ! 1865 shall be brought by the fiist January, 1870. Owing to the length of thefact we are unable to give it in full in our columns. We have given a synopsis of all of the important sections of the act, and call the attention of our readers to it. Those who have old claims of any character whatever had better look after them. A great many judgments obtained prior to June, 1865 are dormant and parties owning such had bettei take steps to revive them before first January, 1870. COL. E. IIULBERT'S LETTER. We give below a very interesting and important letter of Col. Ilulbert, giving his reasons for not paying in to the State treasury montljv the net earnings of the Western and Atlantic Railroad. The idea ad vanced by Col. Ilulbert in a recent official report to the Governor, and in the subjoined letter, as to the permanent improvement of the State Road is, in our judgment, a very good one. It is true, if the course he suggests is pursued, the monthly payments of the net earnings will be cut short for a while, but the money will go into the road as a perma' nent improvement and make the pro perty far more valuable. When the road is thoroughly repaired and im proved as he suggests, we can look for a long harvest of net income, without expense, save the operation of the road. Whatever may be said of Col. liulbert’s politics, we think all will admit that lie is a man of great business capacity. We think in these times he is the man for the place : IMPORTANT LETTER FROM COL. E. lIULBERT. W e.stern and Atlantic Railroad,! Superintendent’s Office, > Atlanta, Ga., Nov. 25. 1809. j To His Excellenc, Rufus B. Bullock, (gov ernor of Georgia ; Sir : In response to your inquiry for my reasons for the non-payment of the usual ! amount into the Scute Treasury for the | month of October, from the earnings of the i Western & Atlantic Railroad, I have to state that the purchase of five hundred (500) tons ur uv,.» tu:.,,. ..t ($30,000) dollars, to replace a portion of those so worn as to have become dangerous, together with an unusual number of cross ties received and paid for at our last esti mate, amounting to thirty-three thousand ($33,(L0) dollars, has exhausted our means so tar as to compel me to postpone further payments into the Treasury until such time as the surplus has again reached an amount justifying a resumption of payments. We have fifty (50) miles o -id and bidly worn rails, an early removal ' i which safe- i ty and economy imperatively demand. This will cost five thousand five hundred ($5, 500) dollars per mile or a total of two hundred and seventy five thousand ($275,- 000) dollars. During the last fiscal year we have laid down nine and one-half (9i) miles of new rail of an approved pattern, with Fish joints, at a total cost of fi ty-two thousand two hundred and fifty ($52,250) dollars. This has been a heavy drain upon our re sources, but has been met up to this time, without interfering with our regular pay ments. The renewal, however, has not kept pace with the rapid deterioration of the old rail; hence the necessity of further immediate and heavy expenditures for that purpose. During the present month we hare paid, as before stated, thirty-three thousand ($33,* 000) dollars for cross-ties. Requiring some twenty thousand (20,000) for immediate use, we advertised for the same at a highly increased price, (same as formerly paid,) which resulted in an unex pected and unprecedented number being placed on the line of Road—a much larger number, iu fact, than our immediate wants required ; but as the parties furnishing them had dune so in good faith, it was deem ed but j-ust that they should be paid—especi ally as, in many instances, the parties were pjor, had exnausted their means in fu<n'ah iDg them, and could illy afford to wait until such time as we might need them. In numerous cases merchants had supplis ed these persons with provisions on a cred it until such time as they should receive their pay from the Road. The general failure of the corn crop on the line of Road doubtless caused a much larger number to be furnished than would otherwise have been. + In many instances payment for the tim ber furnished was the only means the parties had to enable them to purchase seed wheat. A postponement of a settlement would have caused much suffering. Under all the clr* cumstances it was deemed best to pay. and thereby relieve the necessities of those who would otherwise have been placed in a dis tressed condition. My able and accomplished predecessor, Major Campbell Wallace, in hie report for 1867, remarks as follows in a similar case: “You will observe that the amount ref ported this year for materials on hand is greater by twenty thousand dollars than tor last year. In the straightened anddis*. tressed circumstances of our people, I cons sidered it not only my duty, but good p dicy, to aid as tar as practicable, such as lived near the line of the Road to sustain and support their families, without depending on the gifts of the State or the benevolence of private associat ons ; hence thousands of cros6-ties and cords of wood, not needed for immediate use, have been taken up and paid for.” Enclosed in the expenditures at this time, is the cost of a Howe Truss Bridge, at Alla toona creek, to replace the one substituted for the culvert long since fallen down from inferior workmanship. The necessary removal of the debris of the culvert will also involve a considerable further expenditure, to be paid for as the work progresses. While on the subject of expenditure which are immediately necessary, permit me to remind your Excellency of the pressing de mand upon us for the erection of fire proof shops. The temporary wooden buildings at present occupied f«»r that purpose, are ex tremelv dangerous, and are rapidly falling into decay. W’itnin the last year they have : been accidently on tire, but it was fortun ately discovered in time to save the build ings, together with their valuable contents, and thereby heavy loss to the State. The very high rate charged by Insurance Companies for risks upon buildings of this character, Jilled with valuable machinery, and generally crowded with locomotives and cars undergoing repairs, the premium amounting, as it would, to several thousand dollars—would in a few' y ?ars erect first class Fire Proof Building. I cannot better state the very great im portance of a iiLeral expenditure for their erection, than to quote from tke Annual Report for 18G7, of Major Campbell Wal lace, in which he says : “1 would recommend the immediate sub stitution of brick buildings, as near tire proof as practicable, for these unsafe wood en structures. These buildings are ol such combustible material, that we are in con stant danger of serious loss by fire ; and al though Atlanta can, with trtuhfulnesa, boast of as prompt and faithful firemen as any city on the globe, and although our tracks are so arranged, that, in case of fire, the larger portion of our engines and cars could be removed beyond its ravages, such a cas ualty could not occur without a loss in ma chinery, shop-tools, and material, greaely beyond the entire cost of new buildings. Were the State Road my individual prop erty, ] would not divert auothee dollar ot its earnings, for any purpose whatever until all our shops, and a suitable foundry inab dition, were erected on the most improved plan of fire-proof buildings. ” The pressing demand for the erection of a Union Passenger Depot at this place for the comfort and convenience of the traveling public should not be longer overlooked. The commencement of this work is delay ed only by the preparation of the plans and specifications. It will cost from seventy-five to one hun dred thousond dollars. This Road’s proportion of the cost will have to be met at an early day. 1 am, Governoa, verp respectfully, your obedient serveut, E. llulbkrt, Superintendent, NO RESURRECTION-DEATII OF A Ell EE GOVERN MEN L- AN ELO QUENT EXTRACT. The following beautiftl extract i from a speech delivered by 110 1). W. Yoorhees, of Indiana. I is from the lips of a statesman and schollar, the picture given by him of a government that has lost its liberty, is strong and beautiful, but not over drawn : It is a melancholy spectacle to behold a free government die. The world, it is true, is filled with evidence of decay. All nature speaks the voice of dissolution, and the highway of history and of life is strewn with the wrecks which Time, the great des poiler, has made. But the hopes of the future, bright visions of reviving glory, are nowhere denied to the heart of mansave as bp er" oq (in the downfall of legal liberty, lie listens mourufull to the autumn winds, as they sigh through dismantle forests, but he know r s that their breath w ill be o »it ana vernal in the spring, a .and that the dead flow ers and withered foliage will blossom and bloom ogain. He sees the sky overcast with the angry fruwn of the tempest, but he knows that the sun will reappear, and the emblazonry of God cannot perish. Man, himself, this strange connecting link be tween dust and Deity, tetters wearily, wearily onward, under the weight of years and pain, toward the tomb, but how brief ly his life lingeis around the dismal spot It is filled with tears aod grief, and the widow and cypress gather around it with their loving but mournful embrace. And is this all ? Not so ! If a man die, shall he not live again? Beyond the grave in the distant Adienn Hope provides an elysi ura of the soul where the mortal assumes immortality, and life becomes an endless splendor. But where, sir, in all the dreary regions of the past, filled with convulsions, wars and crimes, can you point your fingar to the tomb of a free commonwealth on which the angels of resurrection have ever descended, or from whose sepulchre the stone of desdotism has been rolled away ? Where, in what age. and in what clime have t e veins o‘c institutional freedom renewed their youth and regained their lost estate? By whose strong grip has the dead corpse of the Republic, once fallen, ever been raiss ed ? The mereiful Maker who walked upon the waters and bade the winds be still, left no ordained apostle with power to wrench apart the jaws oj national death, and release the victim of de.-potism. The wail of the heart-broken over the dead is not so sad to me as the realizath nos this fact. But all history, with a loud, unbroken voice, proclaims it ; and the evidenc of what the past has been is conclusive to my mind of what the future wilf be. Wherever in the domain of human conduct a people, cnce possessed of liberty, have surrendered these great gifts of God at the command of the usurper, they have never afterward proven themselves worthy to regain their forfeited treasure. ~lfl 3i)crtisetncfit.
