GEORGIA'S LEGISLATURE.
UR BARTLETT CONCLUDES HIS
ARGUMENT.
Mr. Harris Takes the Opposite View
and Claims That the Proposed
Amendment Gives the Governor Too
Much Power— The Other Business of
the Day.
Atlanta, Ga., Oct. 28.—The Senate held
two sessions today considering the lease
bill. Mr. Bartlett concluded his argument
on his amendment to shut oat bids from
competing lines.
Mr. Harris of the Forty-second district
thought the Bartlett amendment gave the
governor too much power in authorizing
him to declare the lease forfeited when
ever it should appear to him
that the rood was being operated
in the interest of a competitive line. Mr.
Harris, therefore, offered a substitute pro
viding that on demand of the governor the
lessees shall be required to disclose under
oatb who are the bona fide owners of the
road and in whose interest it is operated,
and in the event it is found to be run in the
interest of any competing line legal pro
ceedings shall be instituted to forfeit the
lease. M . Harris said that the West
Point Terminal company had ob
tained control of so many roads
at such high prices that it would
be compelled to charge monopolistic
rates. Should the lea/e act pass without
amendment, the company which had thus
obtained control of almost every road in
the state would get the Western and At
lantic, even if it had to pay more than the
road was worth in order to destroy compe
tition. If the state leased its road to the
Terminal company, knowing its designs, it
would thereby sanction raononoly and resign
its right to force combinations to loosen
their grip on competing lines.
XVILB THAT WOULD ENSUE.
He reviewed the many evils which he
believed must ensue if railroad competition
were destroyed in the state. Thousands
and tnousands, he was co .vinced, would
be wrung from the producers ef Georgia
to satisfy the voracious appetite of tne
monster monopoly—a monster which would
exact tribute o 1 everything eaten or worn,
and on which the consumer would be com
pelled to pay tribute, since it must pass
between the legs of this colossus, ihe rail
road commission could control rates
merely on such freight as did not cross the
state line. Georgia was mainly a c tton
growing state, and almost everything
needed for daily consumption had to be sent
hare from other states. It was bad policy
to put one dollar in the public treasury and
take $lO out of the pocket of the individual
citizen.
BTROTREBB STAND.
Mr. Strother spoke in opposition to the
restrictive amendment. He thought the
railroad commission could prevent unjust
discrimination in rates, and that it
would be to tne interest of the state to lease
to the highest bidder. He saw nothing in
the constitution to prevent acceptan e of
the highest bid Further discussion on the
bill was postponed till to-morrow. The
senate concurred in the house amendments
to a number of bills, among them that of
Benater Julian to sell the old capito).
THE VISIT TO SAVANNAH.
After the adjourn. neat of the H >use this
afternoon th) president conferred wi;b the

Dr. Talmage Breaks Ground for His
Third Church.
Brooklyn, Oct 28.—T0-day took place
the breaking ground ceremony for the new
Brooklyn Tabernacle ou Clinton street, one
of the most beautiful streets in America.
Crowds gathered in and around the yard
where the ceremony was observed, and
neighboring pastors tooktpart in tie serv
ices. The Rev. T. De Witt Talmage,
D. D., mad i the address. Among other
things he said;
That begins right which begins with God.
That begins wrong whiob begins without
him. From first cut of spade till last ring
of trowel, fro.n deepest foundation stone to
highest pinnacle, from this hour when stand
ing under the cloudy rafters, aid amid the
illumined walls of God’s first temple—the
world—to the hour when the people shall
gather for dedication service under tne roof
of the new Brooklyn Tabernacle, we want
to put all under the divine direction. “In
the t.e.tuning,” says the opening passage of
the beit of books, os though to impress all
ages tba we ought to look well to the
ge icsis of every important work.
As we break he ground to-day for anew
church let me state what this church will
stand for. Evangelism, liberty of con
science, christia ii atrioti.m, charity, right
eousness toward God aud honesty toward
man. Mar it be a great place for the cure of
heartaches! May its wiudows look into the
next world as well as this! May all the
children baptized here became the
sons and da.ig ter. of the Lord
Aimignty! May ail the marital oaths
aken at these altars be kept until .death
does them part! May there be a revival of
pure religion ere, which shall roll ou with
out interruption until Christ descends
ihroughthe wide opening heavens! May
the Lord God of Abraham and Isaao and
Jacob, Joshua, and Paul, and John Kuox
and John Wes.ey and Hugh Latimer and
Bishop Mcllvaine take possession of this
ground and all that shall be built upon it!
Ad now 1 proceed to the ceremony of
breaking ground for anew house of God.
(Here ap .do was handed by an elde,- of
tue church to Dr. lalmage, who with a
turn of the spade removed a portion of the
sod.) In the name of the Father and of
the Sou and of the Holy Ghost! The work
is begun. Now let the building rise!
Blessed be the Lord God of Israel from
everlasting to everlasting, and let the
whole earth be filled with i.is glory. Amen
and Amen!

The Art of Leaving.
From the Philadelphia Record.
Wheu Mme. de S;ael visited Weimar,
with the avowed intention of intellectually
capturing the literary lio.is of the day—
Goethe anu made one fatal
mistake: siie stayed too long. Goethe
wrote to Schiller: “Mma de Stael is a
bright person, but she ought to kno w when
it is time to go.”
The art of leaving is less understood by
women than by men. The habits of busi
ness, the recognized fact tbat to a business
man time is mo .ey, the throng aud press
and exacting e-s of business life, all tend
to make men who live in cities the best
possible exemplars of the flue art of leaving
quickly and neatly.
A business man’s social call is usually a
model of good manners iu this respect.
When he has said what he has to say and
listened to what there is to hear lie takes
his hat, says “good evening,” and is out of
your pi eseuee without giving anytime or
chance for the too often ballons and e nbar
rassing common places of mutual invita
tions uni prom is. v to call again which seem
to l* a kind of a cial formula with women.
In striking contrast with tb * neat and skill

RELATIVES WHO WENT TO REGU
LATE HIM FIRED UPON.
One of the Masked Quartette Falls
Dead at the Fire and Proves to be
His Toungeat Brother—Public Sym
pathy Said to be With the Slayer.
Albany, N. Y., Oct. 21 — A sp -cial to
the Union from Northviile, N. Y., says:
“A terrible tragedy was enacted at the
home cf Samuel Carrington, half a mile
from this place, at a late hour Saturday
night. It appears that a young man named
Oscar Barclay has male himself notorious
by his relations with two women and his
visits to the Carrington homestead.
Barclay had been warned repeated./ by his
father and three brothers, but he paid no
attention to them, and they decided to
teach him a lesson.
DISGUISED AS WHITE CAPS.
“Accordingly they disguised themselves
as ‘White Caps,’ and.accnmpanied by about
a dozen young men similar.y disguised, pro
ceeded to Carrmg’.oii’s residence. The
party dragged Carrington from the fcou e,
tarred and feathered him, placed him astride
a rail, and carried him thus for quite a
distance. Then he sai released and left to
take care of himself. The ‘White Caps’ re
turned to the house for young Barelav, but,
having witnessed the treatme ,t of Carring
ton, he de ermined to resist them.
SHOT HIS YOUNGER BROTHER DEAD.
“As they came to the door he ran up
stairs, and, seizing a musket, which he
leveled at the leaders, ordered tuem to stop.
His command was unheeded, and as the
‘ \Ynite, Caps' pressed forward he took care
ful aim and fired. A shriek of agony fol
lowed, and the leader of the ‘White Caps’
fell dead, the right side of his head and
face having been blown to atoms. The
victim proved to be Fred Barclay, the
youngest brother of Oscar.
THE AUTHORITIES NOTIFIED.
“A messenger was at once sent for the
coroner, and other persons w ere directed to
notify the judicial officers of the village of
thetraged,. The body remained where it
fell until yesterday afternoon, when the
coroner arrived and swore in a jury, who
viewed the remains and adjourned for de
liberation. Young Barela y made no effort
to escape, and va, taken into custody yes
terday. Four of the ‘White Caps’ were ar
rested yesterday afternoon, and the rest wdi
be captui ed to-dav. Public sympathy is in
Oscar’s favor.”
THE MARRIAGE OF NEAR KIN.
Something About Tainted Royalty
and Degenerate Nobility.
From Medical Clae ici.
The marital relation underlies all our
social system. It is the creator of society,
and upon its purity and holiness all our in
stitutions depend for permanent existence.
What, therefore, poisons this fountain
ought to be searched out with the most
scrupulous carefulness and removed. Con
sanguinity, or the marriage of relations,
las from the most ancient times been de
nounced as unwise. Scientific men in all
ages and in all climes have contended that
intermixture of one strain of blood not only
tend-i to des:roy the vital forces, but causes
loss of intellectual poier and produces
puysical decay and imbecility, and dwarfs
the growth of the progeny; that the in
evitable result is a degenerate race.
Th -re is much that tends to t ear out this
belief; but facts are stubborn things, and
there a e apparent evide ices to show that
mental or physical decay does not always
follow.
An examination of the marriage customs
of different races and natious of both
ancient and modern times only serves to
inform us that these were and are as
diverse as the genius of the several popula
tions.
Not only can every conceivable stage of
domestic grouping be discovered in the his
tory of tne ancient nations, but the moral
sentiments of men can be seen fnmroving
with the domestic institutions. It is a
favorite idea with some that man’s progress
has beea material merely; that as a moral
being he has made no prograss. It may be
a question whether lie is readier now than
formerly to observe the sta idards of pr .-
pri<ty establishe 1 in the society of which he
is a member. We incline to think he hus
impr ved even in this respect. Publ c
opinion, whicn applies the severest Kane
tious of right conduct, is more searching
and powerful now, and, other things
being the same, the disposition to obey the
dictates of conscience may be assumed
stronger the sharper tke penalties of disobe
dience are.
It matters not wbat moral 6'aniard we
take, wnen we stu iy the history of the rules
now constituting marriage we shah have a
similar aocount to give of them. They are
the lower the farther back we go.
Of the improvement of the standards of
propriety there is no doubt. Lo >k to the
rules related to domestic grouping which
constitute the standard of purity—;he 1 ws
regulating the relations of the sexee gen
erally.
There are marriages that tee declare
incestuous, and to be capital cri nes. An
ciently they were all right—agreeable to
the moral staudard; it is the standard of
propriety that has changed with the nature
of domestic grouping.
The records of the Old Testament show
that marriage between persons of cl .se con
sanguinity was regarded as meritorious,
while alliances with persons of an alien race
were denounced, and even required to be
dissolved. Ezra, who conducted a colony
of Israelites to Jerusalem, aent so far as to
compel all Jews who had married “strange
wives” to divorce them, and send a-vay
their children, on the ground that a mar
riage with a person of another race was a
violation of tne commandment of God, and
“sure to make an end of them, s > that not
even a remnant would escape.” Nehemiah
also banished a priest from Jerusalem, be
cause he had married a Samaritan or
Horonite woman of high rank. King Solo
mon was denounced for having taken wives
from among foreign nations; the patriarch
Isaac is said to have been grieved because
Esau, his favorite son, manied Hit Lite
women, passing bv his own kindred.
On the other hand, there was harily a
restraint in the matter of consanguinity.
Where is the anoient nation that was mo
nogamous? The Jews certainly were not.
T. ey recognized concubinage as well as
polygamy. Jacob had two sisters to wife
at oue time—a thing subsequently forbid
den. polygamy being recognized iu the
prohibition.
It is disagreeable to recall such facts, but
they are necessary for our argument; and
to clearly understand what mural standards
have been relinquished by men w thin the
historical period, a wide survey would - ave
to be taken of ancient facts, of a nature
still more disagreeable (>ee Leviticus, chap
ter xviii., verse 2f; also book xni., of
Misbc.il-ul-Masabeh on the points relating
to marriage on w ich Mabo net *as com

The best evi ienc* of the evil effects of in
ter marriage of tin, says a well-known
writer, is to . * had by an examination of
the rec rds of the royal families of Europe.
Indeed, at the present moment there is
scarcely a single royal family m Europe
which is not afflicted with some hereditary
infirmity, proauced s a rule by too frequent
intermarriage* between near" relative* for
several hundred years past, * hie a as re
sulted in the inapove ishment and vitiation
of the blood. Heretical and treasonable
though it may appear from a European
point of view to advance such a theory,
tnere is no doubt but the blood royal means
tainted blooi, and tha;, botn from a moral
and physical point of view, the ilood of the
peasant classes is of far more generous and
healthy a quality than that r f the aristoc
racy and of royalty. In order to become
convinced there f, it is but necessary to
take up the Almanacn de Gotha and to
glance over the list of those born under the
shadow of a throne.
Toe House of Lords, says Dr. John C.
Nott, woul I long since have been extinct
had not the crown incessantly manufact
ured nobles from out of tne sturdy sons of
the people.
The Princ* Louise, the bride of Lord Fife,
as also her sisters, all have the unmistak
able Guelph face, or rather the heavy eye
lids, receding chins, and mournful, doe-like
eyes, wnich the Duke f Kent alone had of
all George lll.’s children, and transmitted
to the whole large group of his descend
ants. But they inherited fro n their lovely
Danish mother extremely clear and fine
complexions
Lord Fife is near 49, but looks younger,
and is always thoug ,t of .s a young man.
He began his parliamentary life as au
earnest radical, and, though he has now
become a unionist, there is no partisan ani
mosity against him. He speaks very well,
has a handsome face and fig ire, is an excel
lent landlo. and, and is a fairiy eadthy man,
as great nobles go. It is thought none the
wor eof him that he is a partner in the
I anking firms of Heariqnes & Cos. aid
Scott & Cos., or that his investment in
Lieoig’s coca wine alone nets him a hand
some yearly income. Nor as it c unted
against him that the founder of the
n ble house of Fife made his
m ney by vending eggs. Tney most
have been good and sound “in all respects,”
or William Duff, who, in 1404, began the
noble Una of Fifes, would uot have made
money. Perhaps the selection of an E glish
peer instead of an otter Scot would have
been even more satisfactory, but there was
none available of sutfici nt station and re
pute, and, as an English writer puts it,
“the choicecf Lord Fife is vastly preferable
to that of any German importati >n. Better
a British subject than a foreign object.”
In tte Hohenzoiler i case, not only was
the late emperor suffering from the heredi
tary taint of scrofula, but his son Willia n,
the present emperor, is hereditarily deaf,
ad was born witn a mere shapeless ball of
flesh where the right hand ought to be.
The emperor’s only sister is the Grand
Duchess of Baden, and of her two sons,
both died not lo ig ago from scrofulous
develoDinents. Tne malady can, in truth,
be traced all through the “Almanach de
Gotha” among descendants of the Czar
Paul. The disease only showed itself in the
Empress Augusta wheu she had advanced
in life, since when she has worn high dresses,
and frequently was not visible to the public
for months at a time.
it is recalled now that Bismarck, who
was already the chief man in Prussia, in
1858, strenuously op .osed the marriage of
the crown prince with the English princess,
sa.ing that he was against any “blood alli
ance with those scrofulous Guelphs.” The
existing situation is a strange retributive
comment on that utte-anee. Scrofula, or
that worse allied disease with which so
many royal strains of blood are contami
nated, lays a neavy hand on the H henzol
lerns; but the taint has not come alone
from England. The present aged Dowager
Empress of Germany, mother of the
emperor, has b-en a victim of
he editary scrofula, or a cognate
malady, for many years. She got
it from her mother, Marie Paulowna, woo
w a daughter of the crazy Czar Paul,
who was one of the most thoroughly diseased
men of his generation. AU of Paul’s
daughters transmit ed the taint to their
descendants. One of them, Anne Paulowua,
was mother of t e present King of Holland,
and t e recent death of both his so is and
the ext action of his male line are at
tributed to this. In the male Romanoff
line the same malady caused the death of
the czarowitz. who was the elder brotaer of
the present cz ir, and now renders it very
doubtful if the present youthful czarowitz
wiU ever reach manhood.

___ TRIBUTE OF RESPECT.
SANDERS J. FRAIS.
When a body of men are bound together in
one common brotherhood f r mutual protection
and bonedt, and when that bond is broken and
the cnains of unity and good-fellowship are
snapped in twain by the band of the silent mes
senger of death, it is customary to prepare a
‘■tribute of respect" to show to the world In wbat
esteem the deceased brother was held by his
comrades and frien is and to offer sympathy
and condolence to the grief-stricken family who
will never more hear the familiar footstep or
welcome voice of a loving husband or father.
To prepare such a trioate is our sad duty to
day, for. in the providence of the great and
ever-ja-t Ruler. Savannaa Typographical Union

who is the healer of all griefs and the bearer of
all burdens, trusting that they will receive tuat
