It is conceded by every reason- aide man, of ordinary information upon the subject, that the growth in .vealth and prosperity of any country is dependent upon the in ternal improvements of that conn- by—the development of its miner a' !!■ 1 1 . J ' 1 " ' 1 " We shuddered last, night when wo thought of the possibility of failing to receive our Constitution. Of all our exchanges, it is the most important one. Our Congressmen seem to be nnxiouH to impress the world that Georgia is loyal to the Union. So sho is in every constitutional sense of that expression. The trouble with Mr, Speer of the 9th Diet, seems to be a doubt as to whether llamiuond meant him or Felton. Hammond, how-ever, seems to understand the matter. There*aro 11 Atlantas in the United States. Bo sure to put name of county and State whon writiug to Atlanta, or your letter may bring up at the wrong place. agricultural and manufacturing resources. Without referiug to statictics, I may say without fear of successful contradiction, Unit in every community, State or Empire, whore internal improvements have reached the greatest volume in uuin her and variety and highest per fection ol chn. actor, the people aie most prosperous-- money and eveiy means of living is most plentiful autl most easy to he had. But some may ask “what does the rate of in terest allowed by law have to do with this matter?” 1 am sure it it effects it very materia ly. Men will place their money in that in vestment which returns the largest British parliament niter a long] dividend. If they can loan money struggle, seems to ho getting its! ,l l ar g® r porcontum than it will foot pretty firmly on tho nock of Ireland. The only thing bravo lit tle Ireland can do i$ to yield grace fully as sho can. . Tho Railroad Commission now edits tor all ticket offices in Geor gia.

This paper has advocatod, as the files will show, tho cnactmout of a registration law for Georgia over since its beginning. We aro more impressed with its necessity every day wo live. Hope tho next log- islature will give it to ns. About as good testimony in fa vor of Darwin’s revamped evolu tion theory us can bo found, is the deportment reciprocated betwoen the “mako-out-liko” journalists of tho Emory Mirror and the Univer sity Reporter. Those Jackoes do liko “sure-enough” journalists. Other men, (Jefferson Davis for instance) after their term oi service has expired, retiro quietly, to an independent quiet lite; but “You’ll- I-seize” Grant becomes a national mendicant and pronovnees his front name to every donation that an un wise and unjust bonovolence (?) presents. ring them when invested in rail roads t>r cotton factories, they w ill invest by loaning instead of m mil roads or cotton tactories, and us long as men are allowed to take a Larger per cent, interest for money loaned than they ran make by its investment otherwise, they will loan their money an I let the re sources ol the State lay undevelop ed at their doors, lint when in terest is law, they sock other inve t meats tnan loaning, it the into ot interest allowed in Georgia was >e- duccd to 3'per cent, per annum, there wttold be, in a very lew \wai s double an tinny cotton in dories, railroads, flouring mills, ruining op orations etc, etc, as there is to-day. There would bo u proportional in- crcusA in agricultural operations. In pioof of this last statement I refer tho reader to this fact: viz, In that slate in our American un ion whore tho rate of interest al lowed by \uw !• lowest, tbero i« most internal improvement in pro portion to tho size of the state in area and population. And, in tho years between the high and low rates of interest allowed by law, the ratio ot iucrouso in internal improve incuts Ims been greatest. And wo in other mutters, judge the future by tho past, and so may we in this. What has occurred in CounocticUtt and Massachusetts in the way of in- internal improvenents under the influence oi tho operation of strict and equitublo usury laws will occur in Georgia or any state as an effect 'follo’tving a cause. Givousa low rate of interest on forced by law end our internal resources w ill bo de veloped, and in proportion to this development our people will become happy and prosperous. 1 am upprizod that it will bo said that the rate of interest referred to, lmd nothing to de in building rail roads and factories—that they voro built because they wero a Strange if true. What? That it is already settlad and known that Garfield will 'furnish ivino at the White House. It is a great pity it it is true, that the hiighest offi cial of the government will be come a tempter to sin and crime At 12 m. on the 9th the senate proceeded to the hall of the house ol representatives, and the two houses beiug assembled in pursuance of the Constitution for that purpose the dectorial vote for president was coun ted, and Garfield and Arthur declar- elected. The vote of Georgia had its conditional count—not changing the ;rean!t necessity to tnis section ol the coun try ; that tho people were driven to manufacturing for want of other profitable investment. The trans parency of such reasoning may bo scon when wo remember that tho sections in which manufaoto vies and railroads flourish most largely are the best agricultural districts in the nations, and counec tod with the whole world by ports and harbors for the landing of the ships of tho nations beyond. Ev ery avenue ol trade known to com merce was opened to them and they might in a hundred ways have invested their money otlior than as they did. But they acted more wisely than wo have ever dono. They built factories and railroads, etc., etc., and attracted tho commodities and money of oth- ei countries to their shores instead of sending theirs out ot the conn- try. And this too, the direct effect ol legislation on the interest ques tion. When mon could not loan their savings from tho profits ot tiio farm, lor a rato ol interest winch suited thorn they sought in vestment iu something whiclrwould pay hotter. And they did hot do as our bankers and money leaders tell us men will do if you make the rate too low, viz: go out of the state to find investments thov found a place at home l<*r their money, and exporiouce justifies the wis dom of the investment, for factories and rail roadwhere wisely and ju- tll< -‘ diciously managed aro paying their owners well. r I lies© thoughts I let go for wlmt they are worth. 'I lie reader can improve or enlarge on them at Ins loisuro. 1 may refer in my next to this point again, but I shall speak more specifically of the right ot tho stato to legislate on this sub jvet.

The father and mother of these men live near Mount Sterling Kv.; keep a lintel there, and are tolerably well to do in life. Rear or five years ago the i Ider brother came to Missouri and bought j farm near Butler, in in Bates county. The younger broth ••rs fo'Inwed s >on niter, and the four lived together on the since, the eld est being married. Neighbors look ed upon them as being people of means, a d respectable. Pur two or three years nM sorts of devilment was porpefinted in and around Butler- Persons were waylaid nnh robbed by disguised men, mails were rifled, bur ghiries committed and hogs stolen. At length suspicion entered on the Green wades, and they wero watched by officers and citizens and at last caught “dead to rights.*• Mail pouch os cut open and rilled were found in (lie cellar, and other stolen prop erty were found on their premises Conviction was on-v, and they wen landed in the penitentiary. At the time stated the mother, hearing her sons were in trouble, posted in haste to Bates Oounty, only fo learn that they had all been convicted of crimes and taken to the State prison. With her drtugliter-inxlaw and the latter’s two children she reaclmii Jefferson Gity to-day and at once proceeded to the penitentiary. The meeting with her sons war terribly affecting, and it said that Deputy Warden Brad bury for once in bis life gave way to the melting mood. “My God,” she exclaimed, “that a mother should meet four uf lier helov ed in such u place.” The officials were kind and tender to the afflicted ones, but they laid at last to use force in seperating the mother from her sons, and induced her to leave them ufter a visit ol three or lour hours. Mrs. Green wade Sr., is a woman ol not over fifty years in appearance, well mannered, strong minded and intelligent; bat the learlul realiza tion of her position was more than her mother’s heart could bear unuiov ed, and she gave vent to her sliume and sorrow iu a manner mote iff, ct ing than was ever before witnessed within the prisou walls.. She left lor her Kentucky 11trine this even ing, taking her daughter in-law and the children with her.
