The State on last 1’iidujr filed mu
•Mended bill asking lev fie appoint-
aent of m receiver, alleging that no
iNMik can oiake a voluntary assign
ment without snrrendering its char
ter or the use thereof.
The Creditors’ Commutes refute
to give any statement of the assets
ot the bank, as does also the assign
ees. The people desire u statement
end ere entitled to it, and they must
have it.
.We do not wish to say anything
against the b nk that is on Imitated
to miarepreqpnt its true condition,
but why U this long suspense? It
seems to ns if the bunk hud been act
ing all right, and iis finances had
beeif honestly look d after and at
tended to, that its directors would
be more than willing to give a full
and oomplete statement to the peo
pie at onoe. The present condi
tion of affairs, however, forces os to
the conolnsion that "there is some
thing fottaa in Denmark!"
The people ore tired of waiting,
and sooner or later the facta must be
made known, and procrastination is
damaging to these who persist in
keeping them in the dark.
Latkr.—Messrs. Hill and Thomp
son have been appointed receivers
for the defunct bank by order of
Jndgo Uillyer. The proceeds are
to b* held snbject to order of court.

aaw millions of them. They are in

dred feet, and yet there are count leva
numbers of eggs yet to hatoh, and

a very prominent Democrat who
lias given close attention In the Sen-
itormi dead lock lays doidir^lte fol
lowing tiiirx'Mi propositions as. in
Ills judgment, governing I lie own-,
lie studied the grounds oftfce dis
pute carefully and intelligently, tun
the thirteen points which liepnaentt
deserve attention, not the
strength with which they art-" pt>
n-nted, but also because they Repre
sent, in a forcible way, the grounds
upon which the Democrat^ Senators
uttifiy their course. The following
are the thirteen propositions:
First. A party cannot be Consider
ed to have a ihniority in a legislative
body when it it unable to take r sin
gle step or adopt a single motion
unless some one ol the it Urged mi
nority will aid it by voting and thus
making the desired and necessary
quorum.
Second. The Republicans io the
Senate, without Mahone added, have
just one hall the Senate. Unless
some member of the Demon utiC hull
lends his aid the Republican Sena
tors, plus Maltone, cun not commuud
a quorum, and can do no business
<d'any mine or nature except ad
journ.
Third. The vote of the Vice-
Piesideiit cannot be made available
until the Democrats shall be oblig
ing enough to create a tie, whtoh he
will then be able to unloose. Ot or
iginal power the Vice~Presideut has
not one particle, and the Republi
can! arc enraged because the Dem
ocrats will not so vote as to give the
Vioe-President the opportunity to
turn out Democratic otlio* holders
who ar« faithfully discharging their
duty.
Fourth. The Vice President has
never in the history of the govern
ment, save in a single instance, voted
in the election of Senate officers, and
that was in a case where a vacancy
was to be filled. If a vacancy were
to he filled to day every Democratic
Senator would be perfectly willing
to huve the Vice President vote if a
tie should occur, but the Democrats
affirm and will to the end muintiun
that the Vioe President’s vote shall
not be used to create a vacancy
where no accusation is made against
the uicumbeut and where the change
is to bs made tor political purposes
only.
Fifth. The "rale of the majority,"
about which the Republican Sena
tors talk so loudly, is the "rule”
which they will enforce if one or
more Democratic Senstots will help
them to do it.
Sixth. The Republicans are irri
tated because the Democrats will not
leud their aid iq the consummation
of the Mahone bargain by the elec
tion of Gorham and Riddleberger.
Seventh. At the opening of this
session and for seventeen days after,
•he Democrats had n clear and abso
lute majority in the Senate, but the
Republicans interposed dilatory mo
tions every time the appointment of
committees was proposed, und they
held the Senate in a totally unorgan
tzed if not disorganized condition
until the venmt seats were filled and
the trade with Mahone oomplsted.
Biglith. When the Republicans
f ot ready to appoint committees tbe
iemocratic Senators interposed no
objections, because committees were
essential to tbe proper organization
ol the body, aud they submitted qui
etly to hnviug all the chairmanships
taken from them aud trnnafered to
the Republicans, although they nev
er ought to have done this, anil they
set an evil precedent in allowing it,
which must be corrected ut the very
first opportunity.
Ninth. But when it is proposed to
take another and needless agressive
step, one entirely needless, except to
give Mahone his pay und turn out
two excellent und acceptable officers
simply because they Hre Democrats,
the Democratie Senators say : “No,
you shall not do it, and we will stop
you by precisely the sume means
which yon employed for seventeen
duys to stop us from organizing the
committees.
Tenth. Whenever the Republicans
shall have u majority, even of one, in
the Senate, no Democrat will inter
pose a single dilatory motion aguinat
the eleotiou of new officers ; but so
long as the Republican Senators uni
ted with Mahoue have only oue half
of the Senate and the Democrats
have the othei half, the Democrats
will not aid, directly or indirectly,
in turning out Democratic officers.
Eleventh- The Republican Senu>
tors may make up their minds thut
neither at this sessiou nor at the
next session will they be able to turn
Messrs. Burch und Bright out of of
fice unless by some means they first
acquire a majority of the Senate.
Twelfth. Ope word more. Wien
committees are to be appointed n«-xt
December, if the Senate continues
evenly dividers now, fair warning
is given to tbe Republican Senators
Hut the Democratic Senators will in*
gist on ii fair and iqutalib- division

Office Com'ii. or Land A Immioha-
tioh for State of Georgia,
Atlarta, Ga. April 22,1881.
Editor of Tiir Cherokee An
vance—Detr Sir:—1 ask pardon
for this intrusion upon your col
umns. 1 preferred to work quietly
und let results spkeak for them
selves, hut tho following erroneous
statement in the Atlanta Cotmtitu-
tion of this date makes it necessary
that I should do so :
"The agricultural bureau ef North
Carolina is organised upon a more
liberal scale than that ol Georgia—
its expenditures running over $25,-
000 a year. About $5,000 is given
to the geological survey, the fish
commissioner und the experimental
(arm, and half as much is devoted to
the canse of immigration. Tbe bu
reau is soppor>d by a special tax ol
$500 levied U|»on each brand of fer
lilizcr sold in the state. This taken
the place ol tbe inspection fee sys
tem of Georgia. From lliia sou roe
about $30,000 is received, evety dol
lar of whiolt goes to the agricultu
ral bureau In Georgia about $60,-
000 ia realized Irom the inspection
of fertilizers and yet the agricultu
ral bureau is pinched—the fish com
missioner works for nothing—theim-
migration commimoner Ihrvw* up hi*
place in di*gu*t after working two
gear* for nothing, and the geological
survey, alter being half perished, i*
abandoned, buoh a pennywise and
pouudfooliah economy will be apt to
sbow its disadvantage in a contrast
with lbs progress made by Carolina
under a more liberal administration.”
As n State official 1 have uo con
nection with the Agriaptluttl Bu-
ruuu. My office is in one .of the
most oentrnl and prominent loculi
ties in Atlanta, (opposite the Capi
tol and Post Office) is furnished
with specimens of the minerals
und woods of Georgia, und will
soon contuin manufactured fubrios
showing the capacity of Georgia
factories to muke one hundred dif
ferent varieties of goods. Visitors
call on me daily, and my whale
time is, and has been since tbe ad-
jourment of tbe Legislature, con
stantly devoted exclusively to Itn
migration aud getting tacts about
the lands for sale io this State.
I have mailed to farmers four
thouaaud circulars like those en
closed with this, one of which do
scribes the arrival of immigrants
at Savannah direct from Germany,
and before the first ot May, I will
mail six thousand more. 1 have
mailed to Northern people in vari
ous parts of the United States, in
tbe last three months, three huy-
dred pamphlets descriptive of
Georgia, and in the next thirty days
will mail one thousand more. Two
thousand copies of my pamphlet,
translated in German, are now be
ing distributed iu Germany. The
work done for more than two years
could not wisely he abandoned un
til the Legislature has finally dis
posed of the subject. I have never
itad greater fuith in the su^cesa of
immigration, both as u means of
selling land and obtaining addi
tional laborers, than at present.
Respectfully,
Francis Fontaine, Com’r,
Murder in Griffin.
(From tbe Constitution )
Griffin, April 23.-This evening
just before 6 o'clock there occurred
one of the most terrible tragedies
that every took place in our commu
nity. Policeman Mark Hancock was
just coming out of tbe alley near
Morris’ saloon, ami had started
across the street, when he met Alf
Doyal. Lust Sunday morning Hun
cock put Doyal in the lock»up for
beiug drunk, which angered the lat
ter to such an extent that, as report
says, he said he would have venge
ance for the indiguity. Wnen they
met this eveuing words wete passed,
but what was said uo one seems to
know. Suddenly Hancock was seen
to approach Doyal, the latter at the
same time backing off It ns sup
posed they were renewiug their for
mer difficulty, for several heard Dov.
ul say, •M.ivhe you Itud be ter put
me ii|i iig.iin,” and with that fired
fho rap.d shots, the first strik'd#
Hancock hIiiiosi centi .,11/ in ilm

pursued bv .Sheriff Cornell and a
hastily summoned posse who suc
ceeded iu capturing the slaver, after
a short run. Doyal was jailed at
once and the feeling was strong
against him. lodctd. much bitter
ness was exprossed on all sides and
to mglii the jail is bung stiougly
guardid. The coroner's jury brought
in a verdict in accordance with the
above tacts to night after 0 o’clock.
Be fore Hancock was removed front
the drug store his wife und little boy
came in and the scene was touching
beyond description. 1 never ssw a
sadder spectacle. Besides these Han
cock leaveatwo other young children,
lit will be buried to-moirow, with
firemen’s Itouors. Only one witness
besides the attending phyniotuo was
examined by the jury, anil iheso facts
huve been gathered mostly from a
mixed condition of reports. No one
seems to know the unmedia'e endue
of the killmu. The uffait is much
regretted. Doyul is well known hi
Atlanta. He was formally the keep
er of the state house. Tin- pistol
used was a Colt’s repeater, the same
one used by him in u d fficulty ut
the cnpitol several years ago.
