Tanner proposes to start on an*, other lust—this time for ninety-five days. The Philadelphia Times pro poses that he make it ninety-five years, which would be a good idea. The hill to appropriate S‘20,000 for making a display at the Exposition, was reported back to the House by the committee with the recommenda tion that $10,000 be inserted iustead of $20,000. It is the opinion of some that the President’s recovery is very seriously retarded by the malarial atmosphere of the White House. He is evident ly not getting on as well as people sup posed. Pity the poor man who is the subject ot experiment by 6va doctors. A BASK EXAJOXEK. The Atlanta Post-Appeal repo: tbe views of some one whom it cal *a pleasant and thoughtful ex* banker. 1 This gentleman says that tbe legida-v tu-e ought to provide for the appoints ment or election, of a bank examiner; for the state ot Georgia; that the best- banking system in'the country is the United States national banking sys tem, and that the National Ban' are regularly inspected by official e: aminers. The people are kept con-jj stantly advised of the condition of the National Banks and depositors therein f duties of the examine^, he says: . • ***” Hetihonld have thorough practical knowl edge of banking to begiu with. It would be liia duty to visit all the state banks—not at stated periods, but to drop in upon them unex? pectedly- , ascertain thlif true condition end make regular reports to the .public. He would drop into a bank and say, 'How much cash have v ou on 4 liandr ‘So much.* ‘Show it.’ ‘Loans and discounts?’ ‘So much.* ‘Let me see them,’ and so on, making a rigid person al inspection ot the business of the bank. Such a method would keep depositors well infenned of the true condition of the state banks, and prevent bank officials from ‘cooking up’ state ments in expectation of visits from the Examin er at stated periods. Tt» very moment that he found a state bank getting out of tlie legitimate line of business he should say, ‘Get right bock; stop it, or 1 will apply at once for the appoint ment of a receiver and wind you up.’ There is abundance of wisdom in these suggestions. This idea, crude ly presented, should be takeu hold of by, the legislature, and the wisdom ot that body could develop a plan odt of it, which would be feasible and jnst both to tbe banks and thp people. As the case stands now, tbe people seem to have little or no protection against dishonest or incompetent bankers. They deposit their money wiili blind faith! If the managers of the bank are honest men and are ca pable of taking cAre of the money en trusted to them, all is well. If they are not, the people lose llu-ir money and there is an end of it.- Sometimes —perhaps once in a thousand—a cor rupt bank officer is. found guilty and punished. But a term in the peni tentiary will not restore hard earned money to helpless victims. The state certainly owes its citizens protection in this direction, and we ho]>e to see our legislature take hold of the matter and give us such a .law as is n««ded> ... 2! y.^Yi air ING, AUGUST 16, 1881. Number 41. THE NORTHEASTERN CIRCUIT. Pope Harrow explains the necessity of the new circuit. Atlanta, Ga., Ang. 5th, 1881. fatfr. Editor:—In a late issue of the 36ily Banner, I notice a singnlar ar ticle, (which 1 take to be an editorial) upon tbe subject of the new judicial lit (the Northeastern) just organs by the general assembly. The .rain the statement -of facts in 1 article tire so. conspicuous, that I fe the liberty of calling your atten- m to them, believing that you would ^knowingly do injustice to tbe peo- ot Northeastern Georgia, among ftp you at profit reside; article * referred it of the seven counties com** ig the new circnit only one (Hall) probably require more than two leks a year, and that the creation the circuit ‘will give somebody an going time as judge thereof,’ aning, I presume, tbe future judge I it. The whole article makes the in pression that the circuit was not ni aded. The new circuit is composed of the counties of Hall, Uabersham, Rabun, Towns, Union, White and Lumpkin. Tbe new calendar now bring made for the courts in those bounties calls for six weeks a year in Ht^l, four weeks a year in each ot the counties of - Habersham, White and Lumpkin, and two weeks a year in each of the other three. So you perceive that ot the seven counties, moro-than half require four weeks at least fa each year according to the calcnqir, and one ot them six weeks, and tlat only three of them can get along bo two weeks a year. It will require all the time (bat is provided jlm fu this new calendar to transact ' their business, and even then ad- j earned terms will have to be held in some of them. ‘ • As to the labors ot. the judge, it is si ilicient to say that anybody who is ai all acquainted with the duties of a judge of the superior court in Geor gia will see at a glance that twenty- tour weeks of regular terms scattered over the Blue Ridge for fifty or sixty miles, with two ridings in each year is no sinecure itself, to say nothing of adjourned terms and the work done at chambers and in vnealiou. Besides, it is only two thousand dollars a year that he is paid for doing it. Now as to tbe necessity for tbe new circuit. The Western Circuit was organized in the year 1818, and until the North distern was organized the other day, remained substantially the same size territorially as at first cre ated. \Vithin those slxly-threc years the original counties have been cut up by the creation of new counties until the circuit consisted of eleven, ex tending from Waiton on the south to necessities require it and they, speak* ing through their grand jnries,and oth erwise, ask tbe legislature to give them a new circuit, I say let them have it. The legislature was of that opinion too, I can inform you, for there was not a single no on the passage of the bill in the Bouse and only one in the Senate. I am aware, quite well aware, of the fact, that for a long time it has been fashionable in certain quar ters of the state to sneer at Northeast Georgia and its people and to belittle their claim whenever they asked for a new circuit, or a new railroad, or a new college, but I can assure you that the present General Assembly are not of that way of Chinking and when a citizen oi*any number of citizens of our section piesent a good case and ask relief at their bands it will be gran ted. .il I have written fully upon this sub ject for the reason that it is a matter in which the people of our section are deeply interested, is a most important measure, and because I believe fhat you would not allow yonr paper to be used against tbe interest ot tbe people among whom it is published and by whom it is supported, if you were made acquainted with the facts. Yours Respectfully, Pope Bariiow. FORTY DOLLARS FOR FOUR TEETH-A REAL INCIDENT.

O hex, 4586 mch 4,‘i»-i The Post-Appeal says that a white girl, apparently about sixteen years old, was rolled to the station house in a wheelbarrow, last Sunday, while in a state of beastly intoxication. She is saiil to hare como in on a train, and to have been under tbe influence of liquor when she arrived. Bill Moork of the AngustaNews, is taking a deep interest in the York- 1 town Centennial. He is the only ‘living survivor” of that memorable battle, and is now in happy possession of bis second set of natural teeth, which he is filing up for the banquet that he expects to tackle on that oc casion. Judge Twiggs, of Richmond county, has introduced a bill in the House to appropriate money to pro vide for the preparation, publication and distribution of a history of Geor gia. It is a little curious that there is not patriotism enough in the state, or prospective profit enough in Buch a work to induce some one to write it without this bill. Is a speech to college classmates on March 3d, the day before his inaugu ration, President Garfield said that after he became prtsideut, “the broad side of the world’s wrath will strike. It will strike hard. I know it, and you will know it.” This was some what prophetic, but he had no con ception of how hard or in what man * ner it would strike. THE POSTSASTER-UEXERIL. ‘The negroes are at work on an other part of the work from tbe Ital ians, Irish and Yankees.’ ‘They are blasting in the solid rock on the river front at Cornwall, on the projected main line from Weehawken. Good workmen they are, too. They are quicker in accomplishing work than white men, and tar superior to the Italians. I account for it by their singing at their work. They work under Contractors McLaughlin and Riley, and they receive the same wages that the white men do.

When be began there were scarcely any who believed he could succeed, but so it was with Tanner and Gris- coin iu their feats of fasting. Postmaster-General J atnes, accord ing to a special to the Cincinnati En quirer, will soon resign frem the cabinet to become presided of a bank and sate deposit company, of which the Vanderbilts are the leading spirits. Hu was selected on acoount of his honesty and obliging disposi tion, and strong local fame in New York. His position will be perma nent, and his salary greater than a cabinet minister*#. For the good of the country, we hope that report is not true. The Postmaster-General ’ has introduced more genuine reform into his depart ment than any of his predecessors. He has made very large reductions in the expenses, without in any way impairing the efficiency of the ser vice. On the contrary, the postAl service is perhaps more satisfactorily performed than ever before The Postmaster-General was ap pointed because of hig supposed special qualifications for the position. He has fully proved the wisdom of the appointment. The reforms and improvements already inaugurated kave'raised a hope in tlio minds ot the public (hnt the work would still go on, and that by the sagacity aud su perior management of Mr. James, the country would, in time, be en abled to have the jibst-offiue depart ment self-sustaining, aud letter post age reduced to two cents.

At the Chautauqua, New York Confereuce the women's foreign ntis- aoD work of the several denomina- tiens was discussed. It was stated that the women of the Presbyterian church last year raised $179,000, the Methodist women $120,000, and those of tbe Congregational body about tbe same amount. Fifteen women’s associations raised sbo’it $900,000 for foreign missions. over one eleven counties there is a population ot nearly one hundred and twenty- three thousand people, and over sev enteen millions of dollars of taxable property. Nearly one twelfth ot the entire population of the whole state is in the Western Circuit as it stood until the other day when the new cir cuit was organized. It i? intersected in several directions by railroads ; is fall of thriving and fast growing towns and villages; its miuoral re sources, which are uow being rapidly developed, exceed any other portion of the state in variety, extent and valne, and its mountains are studded with the most delightful summer re sorts, which at this moment are liter ally swarming with visitors and tour ists from all portions of the country. The material progress and the increase of wealth and population in the coun ties of the old Western Circuit has been, and is, much more rapid and substantial than any other portion of Georgia. Now, you will at once per ceive that all this has increased enor mously the amount of the busiuess before the courts. The volume of legal business in these counties has swollen to such proportions that lor two or three years past no man on earth could have cleared one halt the dockets in the fifty-one working weeks of the year. There is not in the state of Georgia, within my ac quaintance, a single judge upon the bench who disposes of business more rapid lv than tbe present judge of the We-tern Circuit, and yet he held court until suiidown Christmas eve, and began again the first Monday in January of the present year. He ended the spring riding ot this year on the 22d of June in Clarke, aud begun the fall riding on the fourth Monday in July in Oconee and is right now holding court in Jackson. There was no vacation or cessation to speak of in the whole round of the months. Winter aud summer solstices, spring and fall equinoxes came and went, finding hint on the bench somewhere iu the circuit hold' ing a reguhr term or an adjourned term ot the court. And yet with this unremitting application, in many of the counties, scores of citizens went home disappointed at the close of the term without their cases hav ing been called. For example, under the old Western calendar he had but one week in each riding at Haber sham. Last April he held court in that county from Monday morning until Saturday night and disposed of upwards of twenty jury cases, in which verdicts were found, within that time, and a large number ot mo tions, rules, certiorari?, demurrers and the like besides, still, when he adjourned tbe court Saturday night to go to Rabun, he left one hundred and fifty-tour cases on the docket untouched. Do you not perceive that this was virtually a denial of justice to these people f Since the year 1818 the composing the old Western Circuit hare seen circuit after circuit organ ised in many other sections of the state BY MRS.

That day an explosion had happen ed in the mill where he worked, and he was badly hnrt. ‘Water?’ ho said feebly. She gave it to him, and he went m speaking. ^ ‘Where’s the money, Elsie V 'Here, papa,’ putting her band on the bosom of her dress, ‘That’s right. Tqke good care of it: God only knows when we shall have any more. Poor child! he ad ded, fondly. ‘Not a bit of it,’ sho answered, gafiy- You will be at home all the time now, and we will have such a good time together. Her father gave her a loving smile, and closed his eyes wearily. Elsie be gan to stroke his hand, and he soon fell into an uneasy slumber. The two were all in all to each other. They came from England and had been in America but a few mouths. Elsie was a plain, delicate child of thirteen, but her father call ed her his dove of comfort, and now she was proving her right to the name. She tended him day and uight with a cheery, skillful patience that made everybody love her. But the weeks went by, tbe money witsspent, and still he lay on his beo. Tbe wolf was at the doer. How couid they keep him out ? Then it was that her father said: ‘Elsie, where are the silver spoons ?’ ‘In mama’s little trunk, with the ring and the locket,’ she said. ‘You must get them out and carry them to Mr. Black.’ ‘Oh, papa, no! It is all the silver we have, and mama thought everything of them,’ she cried impulsively. The sick man made no answer, but he put hig hands over his eyes, and soon Elsio saw the tears stealing slowly through his fingers. ‘Papa, dear papa 1 I did not mean it. How cruel of me!’ she exclaimed, throwing her arms around him. ‘I will carry them this minute, and when yon get better and earn money we will have them back borne again.’ 'When I get well! I v'onder when spairingly. ‘Before long—slow and sure, y< know,’ she answered, brightly, and in few minutes sho set out on her first visit to the pawnbroker. But it was not her last.

For some time past a controversy lias been going on as to what became of the first bullet shot by Guiteau at President Garfield. Numbers of per' sons in different cities throughout the country have claimed the honor of possessing the ‘lost bullet,’ but inves ligation has so far proved all the claims to be without foundation. It is now believed by many that the much sought-for bullet is in this city in yellow dog’s back. This yellow dog about two and a half bands high, sup- summer posed to be the animal which followed tbe President’s carriage in the inau guration procession, came here about six weeks ago and sought shelter at the house of Mr. W. L. Penn, on St. Asaph street, where he was cared for by Miss Wattie A. Penn. Here he remained until the Thursday be fore the President was shot, and then took his departure, returning on» week later with a bullet wound in his back. The course of the ball is distinctly marked, and an examina tion has revealed the fact that the animal still catries the bullet. All the circumstances point to the bullet the one first shot by the assassin President Garfield, and of which all trace has been lost. Tbe dog left here on Wednesday a week ago, and the Washington papers the next morning said the President’s yellow dog had again pnt in its appearance After a short stay he again returned to his-new home, in this city, where he is now enjoying his freedom, hie mistress, Miss Penn, having procured for him a brass license tax. The wound in the 1 dog’s back has healed considerably, bnt it is still plainly vis ible and sore to the touch. The flesh and hair have been {flowed by the bullet in a streit line up the dog’s shall never have courage to come again.’ ‘Never mind that. We’ll see if there isn’t some better way out of this trouble,’ he answered. So, hand in band, they went back to t)te sick man, but I cannot tell you how happy and proud he was when the doctor told him about -Elsie, or bow gratefully he fell in with the plan of going into a nice hospital, where ~ , *[hf soon got well enough to -work , tor the doctor’s handsome grounds; while Elsie, in her place as nurse to the doctor’s tytby,'rolled it over the grav el walks. So, though Elsie kept her teeth, they saved her and her lather from poverty and distress. SENETS BEGGARS. Tbe Troubles orta New York Philanthropist. The New York Advocate says: The following interview .with! Geo. I, Seney is from'a reliable’reptSter'. Question. Do yon find as much trouble from’ applicants for gifts as formerly ? Answer. Yes; it increases. Tltoy pursue me at my place of business and at home. I actually have to leave the city to get rest. . - Q. Who gives the most trouble? A, A great many women are ap plying to me, some of whom persist until they have to be fairly driven away. Q. Do you reoeivo ;many letters? A. Yes; I am almost as much per secuted as Dr. Dix was by Gentle man Jo’s letters. I frequently get thirty or forty a day. Q. Do you’pay any attention to them ? A. No. As soon as I see what they are at, I throw them in the waste basket. It is my deliberate purpose to answer none, and to rend none after I see wbat they are at, and there is no use in people calling on me. My plans are all formed, and I know what to do with all I have to give, and ten times as much if I had it. I have no money for paying church d' bis or for building parsonages. What. I have to give for those purposes, I‘in tend to give through the church ex tension and treedman’s aid society, through the regular collection taken in the ahurch extension for those pur- poses. Q. Do persons who apply for per sonal help grow angry? A. Yes. A man threatoned'to 'do violence not long ago, and I had to have him arrested. lie turned out to be an ex-convict. Another wrote me a letter hoping at the day of judg ment I would be damned. It is use less for people to apply to me. If I ever get so that I can’t tell what to do next, I will look up some triend for counsel. Q. Do you object to this interview being published ? A. I don’t care whether you puli- lish it or not. If it will lead people to save their time and my patience, it will be a good thing. POOR POLLY. / The Living Can’t Live by the Dead. From ihc Richmond Dispatch.

As she did so, these words caught her eye: W ANTED. * Fonrpt ftive foity dollars. Ciias. Dow, Dentist, No. 5, K. St. The poor little face flushed scarlet with a sudden hope. Perhaps he would take mine,’ she thought. ‘Mother Savage said yes terday sho wondered how such a homely child came to have such hand some teeth.’ She seemed to hersclfto be dream ing. iForty dollars, forty dollars, 1 kept saying itself over in her brain, and when the shop-man turned to wait on her she was gone. A few minutes after she stood in the dentist’s office. ‘Please, \^ill you see if my teeth are good enough to buy ?’ she asked timidly. The doctor was engaged in a deli cate operation but he stopped to give the teeth a hurried examination ‘How beautiful! They are just what I want. Come tosmorrow,’ he said, going back to his work. The rest of the day Elsie’s father thought her wonderfully gay , but he could not t hink why, for she said noth ing of her plan, about which she began to lose courage when the first excite ment of it subsided. Hard things look easier in the ntoruing than they do at night, and as she sat in tbe twilight, studying herself in a bit of looking glass, she thought sorrowfully: ‘I shall be homelier than ever when they are gone; but then how silly of me to care about that. Papa will love me just the same. But it will hurt so to have them out,’ she went on think' ing, and every nerve quivered at the prospect. ‘If it wasn’t for the rent, and the medicine for papa, and ever so many other things—I never, never could beg, never. Yes, Elsie Benson, it’s cot to be done, if it kills you.’ The next morning she entered the dentist’s office by the mere force of will. Her courage was all gone. Dr. Dow was alone, and said ‘Good morn ing’ very kindly; bnt when he saw how she trembled he put her on the lounge and made her drink something that quieted her. Then be sat down by her and said: ‘Now tell me what your name is, and why you want to sell your teeth.’ He spoke so gently that at first El*ie could only answer him with tears; but at last he contrived to get all her sad story, and hia. eyes were wet and his voice husky several times while she was telling il, ‘You are a dear, brave child,’ he said, when she had finished. ‘Now I am going with you to see your father.* ‘But you’ll take the teeth first, won’t you ?’ she asked, imploringly.

Four months elapsed and not one crop of grass had been cut from Pol ly’s grave, when one Saturday morn ing he came to the same grocer’s, and with face rnddv, exclaimed, ‘John son, old fellow, give me a drink of your best mountain whisky, I feel like a three year old.’ ‘What’s the mat ter ?’ asked the grocer. ‘Why, I am going to marry Jim Jackson’s daught er next Thursday, and she is only teventeen, and as plump and pretty as a peach.’ ‘Why, old fellow only a few months ago you told me you wanted to die, all on account of poor Polly, and now you talk about mar rying a girl young enough to be your daughter. Are you crazy or drunk?’ •Neither, old boy; ‘the living can't live by the dead: ’ Here lie swallowed tbe whisky, wiped bis mouth with a red-bordered handkerchief, and rode off as rapidly as a bearer of impor tant dispatches. Poor Polly. THE TEMPERANCE BILL. The Bill reported in the senate Monday by the special committee on temperance, provides that after pres ent licenses expire it shall be unlaw ful for any person to sell, barter or furnish either directly or indirectly any spirituods or intoxicating liquors or drinks or any medicated alcoholic bitters of any kind or any liquor ot which spirituous liquor is a material or constituent part outside the limits of any incorporated town or city ex cept upon the written application to the ordinary of two-thirds of the freeholders who reside outside of such towns and cities and within three miles of the place at which it is pro posed to open a saloon. The second section of the act provides that iu in corporated towns an election shall lie held when one-fourth of the voters so petition at which whisky may be voted out and such a vote shall debar any person from issuing license in such towns as polls a majority of votes against whisky. The fifth sec tion provides that the law shall not operate to cause a new eloction in those places which have already voted whisky out, or whero the sale of whis ky is prevented by special legislation. It is thought that the bill will pass. It will suit the country people, and it leaves the towns and cities free to regulate the matter fur themselves. No danger of explosion front Red C. Oil.,
