ready, but, so far, no still. Come’
gentlemen, hurry np.
—Some people can keep a horse at
very little expense. They work them
all day, and turn them out at night to
graze. The currying is done by the
black birds alighting on their backs
early in the morning to catch th e
ticks.

—The Oeeanics did not mtister very
strong at the sawdust lire last week—
only twenty, all told. Come, gentle

learn.

ing ahead. They have elected the
following gentleu^k as directors:
Messrs. Watkins, D. T. Dunn, Little

your money into it if you can, but if
not, don’t croak any.
—Our cemetery is now in better or
der than it lias been for some time
past. It is as clean as a pin, stumps
all out, and gates secure ngainst the
visits of four-footed animals. In ad
dition to all this, there is a nice sweep
and bucket at the well, and our ladieR
are happy once more.
—We are pleased to meet on our
streets once more our townsman James
Robarts. His new stove has been fair
ly tested st the works in upper Geor

Mr. Bine's speech is said to have
been well received ly*the House, anij
when he took his sedt the Applause
was long and cQnt-innoiiH, and the
Speaker had to rap vigorously end of
ten to bring quiet to the Housp. His.
speech, while it had nothing of the or
atorical or ‘bunkum’ to recommend it,
was filled with facts and common
sense. The effect.was the passage o^’
the bill bv an overwhelming vote. ” .

Effect of the speech of a Colored
Georgia Legislator.
The Columbus Enquirer of recent
date, after a few geueral remarks by
way of introducing the subject, has
the following on the speech of onr re
presentative on the convict question:
“When the bill came np in the
House for a final vote, he rose in his
place and informed the Speaker that
he desired to ‘make a few remarks’ on
the merits of the bill.
The members were more than glad
to bear what a negro had to say on
the question, and requested him to
come to the front, where he could be
beard. He opened his speech by sta*
ting thnt. ns a negro (he did not say
colored man), he was peculiarly inter
ested in this matter, ns his race com
prised three-fonrths of the representa
tives among the State convicts; that
he was opposed to funning them out
in squads; he wanted them kept to
gether; that once he was a slave; and
lie had been well treated and cared
for; that there Were many as good mns-i
ters as his, yet he asked his white
friends to deny that there were bad
masters—who half fed them and half
clothed them. The same state of af
fairs existed to-day. He knew one man
who had fifty of these convicts. He
was a kind man, a good mnn. The
convicts under him were clothed, fed
and cared for as kindly as he conld
ask; yet he knew other men who trea
ted them as if they were brutes, yes,
worse than brutes. He desired this
stopped. He asked for his people, who
on account of their ignorance were
criminals—not that the negro did no*
know it was wrong to steal, but he
had not been trained to that moral
sence of right and wrong that the
whites had, and that had nothing in
his education to prevent him from
stealing except that it was against the
law.—What he (the speaker) wanted
was that these criminals should be
kept together in such numbers as to
be pnnished without cruelty. Ho
wanted those who hired them, to be
required to provide a physician to at*
tend them while sick, a preacher to in
struct and console them, that when
they had served out their term, they
would not go back into the world crip
ples and invalids in health or outlaws
in morals. He wanted them reformed,
if possible, made better men and wo
men; and when they hod endured the
punishment put upon them by the
law, they would be prepared to take
Cauoht at Last.--Belknap,*. SeCre--
