THE GEORGIA LEGISLATURE.
This bo<ly of corruption is again
in session in Atlanta. They were
organized on Monday last; and like
hungry dogs over a dead carcas they
quarreled and fought over the offices.
We can look for nothing good from
this Radical machine. The only
thing they have at heart is how to
harrass the people, and steal all they
can from the Treasure of Georgia.
It is true, we have some good men in
tlie Legislature, men who have the
interest of Georgia at heart, and
will no doubt do all they can to sus
tain the reputation and liberty of the
pround old State. But as they are
in the minority, they can do nothing
but look on and see the Empire State,
with all of its pride and patriotism,
disgraced and bankrupt, by the car
pet baggers and traitors to the blood
of their fore-fathers, who fought and
poured out their life’s blood upon
the battle-fields of 76 for freedom
and liberty. But national pride and
liberty are now crucified and put to
•open shame, and can never be resur
rected until it is done at the ballot
box, by electing good and true men
to represent us, both in Congress and
the State Legislature. As for ad
vising the present machine at Atlan
ta as to what is to the interest of
Georgia, you had as well “sing psalms
to a dead horsefor they know
they are elected for two years, and
have the wholo thing in their own
hands, and Bullock to back them in
any devilment they may see fit to
do ; and besides this, they think that
no man but a member of that Hon
orable body has any interest in the
affairs of Georgia; at least, they act
as if they believed every citizen of
Georgia was bound to endorse and
approve of their every act without
saying a word. But we thank God,
(not the Radicals,) that the liberty
of the press has not yet been taken
from us, and though we can not act
as free American citizens, yet we
can speak our sentiments; and that
wg intend to do until our “ tongue
shall cleave to the roof of our mouth.”
We do say, and say it without fear
of successful contradiction, that the
present Legislature has spent more
money for the State than any other
Legislature has ever spent, in twice
the time. They seem to think that
every tax-payer in Georgia has a
gold mine at his door, and nothing to
do but rake it up by thousands and
pay it into the State Treasure, to de
fray the expenses of this unworthy
and extravagant body, who are will
ing to stay in session from one year’s
end to another at nine dollars per
day, and drink fine whisky and
smoke fine cigars at the honest peo
ples expense, and appropriate the
money of the State to satisfy the
whims of every Radical who may
ask for State aid.
We can only say to the good peo
ple of Georgia, bear all the disgrace
and shame that may be heaped upon
you, by the present Legislature, with
as much fortitude as possible, for the
yoke is upon us and we must wear it
for the time being. But when the
time comes for another election, then
look to your interest, and purge ; yes,
elcanse , the Legislature by electing
good and true men, who will look af
ter the interest of Georgia and not
their own pecuniary interest. And
when this is done, we can unravel
the shame that ha3 been piled upon
us by unwise and unholy legislation.
Then, and not until then, may we
look for the proud eagle of peace
and prosperity to float proudly over
our once happy State.
PROCEEDING^OF THE LEGIS
LATURE.
We omit the full proceedings of
the Legislature of Monday, simply
beeause there was nothing of inter
est done. The body was partially

TIIE HIGHEST DUTY OF ALL.
The editor of the Mobile Register
closes his “ New Year’s ” article
with these words. They are as wise
as true, and should write themselves
deep on the heart of every man who
loves his country and docs not des
pair of its final redemption :
“While we till the earth, drive the spin
dle unlock the mines of mineral wealth
from the sleep of ages beneath our soil, ex
pand our commerce, educate our children
for the duties of manhood and patriotism,
there is still another sacred obligation ws
owe to the dead, the living and to posterity,
and that is to keep our honor as a people
unsullied and bright before the nation of
the earth : for it is only thus that, when the
day of deliverance from bondage comes, we
shall be able to utilize and enjoy the sweets
of restored liberty. For the rest, love your
country and treasure it in the deepest re
cess of your heart. Love it the more that
it hag. no friend3 elsewhere ;* love it as a
widowed mother does her orphan child".
“ ‘To thine own self be true,
And it will follow, as the night the day,
Thou cau’st not tbeu be false to any man’ ”

Examination in Talhotton —Tns State
vs. W. J. Weeks, Charged with Killing
Jas. D. Cottingiiam.— ln Talbotton, on
Thursday afternoon, the 30th of Dpeiifber,
Jas. Cottingham was killed by VV. J,
Weeks. On account of the high social
position of the parties, the affair excited
intense interest and universal regret. Mr.
Weeks is about fifty years, of age and a
leading merchant of Talbotton. Mr. Cot"
tingham was aged about sixty years, was a
mechanic and builder and was universally
esteemed.
The examination was commenced in
Talbotton last Wednesday before Jutices
Walker, Carakerand Hogg, and ended yes
terday morning. The matter awakened
great interest and the Court room was
crowded throughout. Counsel for the de
fense were E. H. Worrill, J. H. Mathews,
Marion Bethune and Blandford & Thorn
ton ; for the prosecution, W. A. Little and
Smith & Alexander.
The main witness cf the State was Dr.
Turner, who testified as follows: That the
deceased, Cottingham, asked him to rep
resent him before the Trustees of the
Methodist Church in Talbotton, In relation
to a note of some S2OO or S3OO, made before
the war, which they held against deceased,
which was given for money bequeathed to
the church by J. H. Weeks, the brother of
the accused. That the witness and Cyrus
Robinson and the deceased, were talking
about the matter in the piazza of the store
belonging to the accused, (Weeks.) That it
was a question as to whom the note was
made payable, whether to the accused or
the Trustees. Witness turned and walked
into store of accused and met him about
midway of the front room, and asked him
to whom the note was made payable. He
replied, “to the Trustees.” Witness then
turned to communicate the intelligence,
when he discovered the deceased. Cotting
ham, close by him. The accused remarked
that lie was opposed to renewal of note, as
it would not renew the debt. Deceased
replied that Trustees would settle the mat
ter. The accused said, “I’m one of the
Trustees, I shall object.” Deceased, in a
sharp, angry tone, said, “sue on, I don’t
care.” Accused rejoined, “I suppose not,
from the way you are disposed to settle
your debts.” Deceased then said, “I pay
my debts as. well as you do.” Accused
said, “it is not so.” Deceased then raised a
large stick which he had in his hand, catch
ing it in the middle in a menacing manner.
Accused ran his hand in his right hand
pantaloons pocket and withdrew it. Wit
ness saw something in his hand which he
supposed to be a knife. Heard the lattei
part of the remark accused made, to this
effect, “in my house, I will cut ycur throat,
y u infernal scoundrel.” Deceased re
marked, “cut away,” and immediately
pushed by witness, striking at accused with
stick, caught accused, pushed him down on
his back between bolls of cloth on counter,
completely enveloping him from view
W itness saw right arm and hand of accused
moving as if in act of cuttiug on of
the deceased. When witness pulled de
ceased iff from accused, he saw blood is
suiug from his throat, and be died in a sow
moments, saying nothing that was heard.
It was proved py Capt. Persons that he
saw accused in a few minutes after tbe
difficulty. There were marks of violence
upon bis person. He noticed his *neck.
There was a wound upon the neck from
which blood was issueing in a curvilineal
shape as if made by a finger firmly planted
on the throat. Also an abrasion of skin
on the forehead. The first word accused
said to witness was, “My God, what have
I done IHe struck me with a stick on the
head. He choked me on the throat back
on the counter, raised a stick to stike me
again; and what else could I do V ’
It was also preyed by other witnesses
that the parties have always been friendly,
that they belonged to the same church (M.
E. Church), trustees of the same, and
Members of the same Masonic L jdge.
There was other evidence in the
but these were the principal facts. It was
proved that deceased was a large, vigorous
man, weighing from 180* to 200 pounds ;
the accused weak and sickly, weight 120
pounds.
After exhaustive and able argument by
counsel, the judges, yesterday moruing,
affixed the bond of Weeks at SI,OOO to an
swer the charge of involuntary manslaught
er in the commission of a lawful act with
out due caution and circumspection.
Stewart, who shot Wood last week, in
Rome, has been bailed in $10(00 to rppear

FARMING.
The Rome Courier offers some good
advice to up country Farmers on the
subject of small Farms. We give our
readers the benefit of it:
Under the prepent labor system, and t' 6
impoverished state of Southern men, there
are few farmers who can run with any
sueces a very farm
We advise all land owners to select pome
hundred acres of good land for their own
purposes, and rent the rest of their land out
in small lots. It is far easier to raise 40
hates of cotton on 40 acres of land than on
100 acres, if the rules of manuring and
planting, as laid down in standard agriculo
tural papers is observed' We need not say
that the expense will bo much smaller, also.
The advantages that must accrue lrom
the concentration of labor and capital upon
a compact little farm ot twenty-five acres
over the lukewarm and inefficient raking
over of three or four hundred acres, are so
palpable that we need not argue them.
In the begiriing of this new year—a
year important in our history—we advise
all our farming friends to rent out or sell
all except the best portion of their land,
and to vigorously cultivate, with a liberal
and educated policy, what they may reserve,
planting various crops, and vre feel confix
dent that this year will be one of marked
prosperity.
Receipts of Cotton.—Our warehouse
men say that the great bulk ot the staple
has already been received. It is thought
we will not get over 15’000 more bales mak*
ing the grand total receipts at this point 75’
000 bales. A conviction has prevailed
amonga large number of planters that prices
would rule higher after December, and, not
being pressed for money they have held on
to a large per centage of their crop. We
hope their expectation may be realized, but
there is no telling anything about the ft*
ture of that or anything else. —Telegraph
and Mes eager.
Brick Pomeroy on Other Men’s Wives.
—There are many men who, with the char
acteristic liberality of their sex, would
reach (ut and take in the whole of men’s
wives, provided the men do not shoot.
lie would rather go three miles to see a
man’s wife than one to see a dog fight.
Big Land Sale.—An association called
the “Polish Emigration Land Company”
has just purchased 33,000 acres of land in
Amherst, Rockbridge and Bedford couns
ties, Virginia, for SIOO,OOO.
The Father of Turnips.—We have a
globe turnip from the garden of Mr. J. A.
Virgin, of Vineville which weighs twelve
pounds. This is the biggest of the kind we
ever saw.
“Who’s that gentleman, my litt’e
man?” was asked of an urchin. “That
one with the spiketailed coat?” “Yes,”
was the respond. “Why, he’s a brevet
uncle of mine.” “How’s that ?” was asked
“Cause he’s engaged to my aunt Mary.”
