THE CONSTITUTIONALIST
TUESDAY, MARCH 2, 1875.
The Late Manifesto. —The New
York Day Book publishes the address
of Southern Congressmen and says :
“ What moral cowardice ! —worse,
vastly worse, what unspeakable folly !
—and worse even still, what mighty
danger wrapped up in that stupid pros
tration before mumbo-jumbo! The
spirit of their advice is well enough. If
they had said, 4 a mad aud monstrous
faction, with t\e Government in its
hands, is striving to equalize beings
wiiom God has made unequal, and
therefore blindly warring upon the
very existence of society, but as we
are helpless to resist, we call on you to
temporarily bear this awful burden
until the North comes to its senses,
and to treat the poor, outraged and
hapless negro with as much forbearance
as possible,” why it would have been
sensible and proper. But in tacitly as
senting to the loathsome and devil’s
“ idea ” of “ equality ” with negrodom,
they disarm their Northern friends and
confirm the madness of the Northern
mind, and in conciliating Sambo on
equal terms, know, or should know,
they render him a social monstrosity
a thousand fold more dangerous than
even carpet-baggery is capable of.”
Hanging. —A Parisian, who tried to
hang himself, but was cut dov*n in time
to save life, reveals the sensations,
thus:
I had the sensation of receiving a blow
from a hammer on the top of my head. I
feel the rope, and tne only defined sensa
tion succeeding that of the blow was a
sensation of weight in my head. My head
seemed heavier and bigger than the great
bell of Notre Dame. It was night all about
mo, and then there came a terrible cold in
the lower part of my oody, and then a
sharp pain where the rope was tearing my
neck, and then—nothing.
All who live on the 44 ragged edge,”
and know not the manner of their exit
from this world, may be interested in
the above description of one mode of
hastening their departure.
Trumpet Tones— One of the Louis
iana Commissioners at Washington,
who went there at the bidding of the
Conservative caucus, excuses his
assent to the Wheeler compro
mise by saying that ‘‘Northern in
dignation” and the "trumpet tones
of outraged freemen” were the veriest,
bosh and nonsense. He might have
found that out a great deal sooner and
at much less expense.
Beecher-Tilton. —According to Gen.
Tracy, of Beecher’s counsel, the Ply
mouth Church pastor is innocent, be
cause he was "loyal to the Union.”
There are a good many men who are
loyal to the Union and to nothing and
nobody beside. The learned attorney
also describes I’ilton as a 44 putrid
corpse.” He may be, for all we know,
but he is pretty lively for a corpse,
putrid or otherwise.
The Exemption of Manufactures.
We extract as follows from the At
lanta Herald’s report of the Senate de
bate on the question of reconsidering
the passage of a bill repealing the ex
emption of the tax on manufactures :
Mr. Payne got the floor and proceed
ed to give his views upon the measure
against reconsideration. He said lob
byists had been fooling with some of
the members who were friends of the
measure on yesterday. He said they
wanted to reconsider the bill for the
purpose of defeating it and not foi
amending it, and he hoped it would
not be reconsidered. He said there
had been intrigue to defeat the bill.
Mr. Payne waxed a little warm in his
remarks, even more so than he has
been any time previous during the
session.
Mr. Cain was next recognized by the
President. He spoke in favor of re
consideration. He said it ought to be
reconsidered for the purpose of killing
it. He would not be driven from his
position by any charge of intrigue and
that lobbyists were trying to defeat the
bill. He said no appeal to passion
should swerve him one inch in his
honest convictions. He said he had
voted only a day or two ago to give a
rich corporation 100 of the State con
victs for the purpose of opening up a
railroad, and if he was not mistaken
the Senator from the 44th District also
voted for it.
Mr. Cain read a dispatch from Mayor
Estes of Augusta, in which he said if
the law exempting mills from taxation
was repealed a large mill which was
contemplated being built in Augusta
within the present year by foreign
capital would fail to be built. Mr.
Cain made a splendid speech. He is
e\identl> an orator and a man of sound,
solid, practical sense. He makes as
good a speech as any man in the Sen
ate.
The widower’s grief has been pro
nounced by competent authority to be
lovely while it lasts, but it is not con
structed to endure the rude assaults of
time. A Connecticut man who only last
Spring thiew himself upon the cold turf
that wrapped his beloved’s clay and
wept until his eyelashes fell out, has
since had three women following him
around for alimony.— Brooklyn Argus

THE JONES CASE.
The Committee Resolutions.
Resolved, By the General Assembly,
In view of all the facts reported by the
Joint Committee on Finance, in their
several reports at this session on the
condition of the Treasury of the State,
the conduct of the Treasurer; that
said Treasurer has not, as he should
have done, performed the duties of his
office according to the lews of this
State and the many rules governing
persons occupying such positions of
trust; and that from such non-per
formance of his duty he has greatly
endangered the property of the State
and seriously impaired its credit; that
while we esteem him for his past no
ble services to the State of Georgia,
yet our duty to the tax-pajmrs of the
State, compels us to say that the con
duct of the Treasurer in the adminis
tration of his office, as reported by the
Joint Finance Committee, deserves,
and hereby receives, our unqualified
condemnation.
Reso’oed, That in view of the report
presented by the Joint Finance Com
mittee as to the payment of the bonds
previously paid, that the Governor
shall proceed to institute suit against
the Treasurer and his securities on
their several bonds to recover any
money illegally paid, any money or
property due from the Treasurer, and
at the same time proceed to institute
suit against any person or corporation
in this State or elsewhere who have
received payment of bonds previously
paid.
Resolved, That the Governor be re
quested and directed to require a final
and complete registration of all the
bonds and coupons reported as paid by
the sub-committeo of the Finance, and
now in the vaults of the Treasury, and
for which the State is no longer liable,
such registration to be placed upon a
suitable record book, and when the
registration is made and the record
submitted to the Governor, and has re
ceived his approval, that the Governor
direct the said bonds and coupons to
be burned in the presence of himself,
the Secretary of State, the Comptroller
General, and report the fact of such de
struction to the next session of the
General Assembly.
Resolved, That his Excellency, the
Governor, be requested to appoint, at
once, a skillful and competent agent,
at a salary fixed by himself , to assist
the Treasurer in systematizing the
manner of book-keeping in his office ;
to m ,ke out a full and complete regis
try of the bonded obligation of the State
now in .the Treasury; to ascertain, if
possible, all the outstanding obliga
tions recognized as legal or illegal by
the State, and to report to the General
Assembly a tabulated statement of the
same, and to do whatever else may be
necessary to protect the interest of the
State in the conduct of the office ; and
the Governor is hereby authorized to
continue this appointee as such assist
ant so long as necessary to the welfare
of the State.

Finance Committee, it appears that cer
tain irregularities and inaccuracies ap

Be it resolved by the General Assembly,
That the Governor is hereby authoriz
ed and requested to employ some com
petent, skillful person to assist the
Treasurer in opening and keeping such
books as may be necessary to show at
all times and" with accurate details, the
state of the business in the depart
ment, rendering such other services as
may be required to put the affairs of
the Treasury in proper condition, and
to continue such person in employment
until the next meeting of the General
Assembly.

Cold Courting.— Saturday morning
at one o’clock the police found a horse
aud cutter coming in from the country
on the Pontiac road, with the driver so
nearly frozen that ho was lopped over
on the seat and unconscious. He was
taken to the station, and they thawed
him out after an hour or so. When he
could speak, he asked :

[Washington Chronicle, 26th.
EX-SENATOR NYE.
The Wanderings of His Mind—He
Leaves the Train While on His
Way to Washington, and is Dis
covered and Kindly Cared For.
A telegraph dispatch from Rich
mond, late last night, says e:x-Senator
Nye was brought to this city this morn
ing on the Southern-bound train, hav
ing gotten on at Asland. When first
discovered on the train by Conductor
Birdsong he was without coat or hat,
and was somewhat incoherent in his
conversation with the conductor. Be
fore arriving at Richmond, however,
he told Capt. Birdsong who ho was,
and that gentleman, upon reaching
the depot here, having to cross the
river with the train, placed Mr. Nye in
charge of a policeman until his return.
The policeman furnished him with a
coat and hat, and then took him to the
second police station, where he remain
ed until Capt. Birdsong returned.
Mr. Nye, in answer to questions,
stated he knew ex-Governor Walker,
and expressed a desire to see him.—
Captain Birdsong went immediately to
the Exchange Hotel, and informed
Governor Walker of Mr. Nye’a where
abouts and condition. The Governor
immediately took steps to have Mr.
Nye brought to his hotel which was
soon done, and he is now comfortably
quartered there. Information was sent
to Washington this morning that Mr.
Nye was in Richmond. His servant ar
rived hereon tho 1:30o’clock train, and
will proceed to Washington with his
charge to-night. Mr. Nye, accompanied
by his daughter, was returning ' North
from Florida, where he had been for
his health ; and it is supposed he got
the train at Ashland at midnight, and
was left there until the down train ar
rived, about four hours afterward.
Note. —Ex-Senator Nye, who has
been in ill health for some time past,
suffering from a disease of the brain,
had been travelling in the South for a
few weeks, with a view of improving
his condition. Ho was accompanied by
his daughter, Mrs. Waller, aud an at
tendant, and Tnursday night, at 9:30
o’clock, they took passage at Peters
burg on the train for this city, and se
curing sleeping berths retired for the
night. Mr. Nye was seen to divest
himself of his coat, hat, and shoes, and
then retire, and his attendants were in
no way alarmed, for he appeared to be
very quiet, and his mind comparatively
clear. On the arrival* of the train at
the Baltimore and Potomac depot in
this city at 5:13 o’clock yesterday morn
ing they commenced preparations to
debark, and going to Mr. Nye’s berth
could fiud no trace of him excepting
his hat and shoes. Tho sequel is told
in the dispatch above.
The Colored Cadet at the Naval
Academy.— Annapolis, February 25.
During this week Mr. Gordon Claude,
of Annapolis, a young man of most ex
cellent mind and of fine social stand
ing, now a cadet engineer, was ordered
to fence with the colored midshipman*
at the Naval Academy, aud refusing to
do so has been expelled. He was at
first requested to resign. He would
not do that, though ho disliked to dis
obey orders. He was then informed
he should consult with his parents.
This he did, when his father, Dr. Abram
Claude, said he would not advise him,
leaving it to the young man’s judg
ment. Dr. Claude, however, went to
the superintendent and told him his
son was raised as a Southerner, and
not on social equality with a negro,
and he would not advise him to do
what he would not do himself. On this
Mr. Claude was expelled yesterday, a
The Colored Cadet. —The dismissal
of the two cadet midshipmen—Melton,
of South Carolina, and Hood, of Geor
gia—which was quietly executed here
recently, has brought out two stories
of the occurrences that led to the ex
pulsions. The first was, in effect, that
a snow-ball thrown in a squad of mid
shipmen struck the colored cadet,
whereupon he proceeded to curse the
whole platoon. The next day he was
caught in an obscure part of the
grounds by Melton and Hood and
soundly beaten.
Melton states that on one occasion a
number of midshipmen were engaged
in snowballing, when the colored cadet
took a hand. The crowd, by common
consent, turned upon him and pelted
him severely. This the colored cadet
reported to the authorities. After
wards, on Sunday evening, wdien the
students were going into supper, the
colored midshipman was in Melton’s
way, standing in the door. Melton
told him tc get out of the way, where
upon the other said he was as good as
he was, for he (Melton) was appointed
by a colored man, and he was sent
there by a white one. To this Melton
replied with sundry oaths, and the af
fair there for the time ended. The
next morning Melton and Hood came
upon the colored boy near the battery,
aud Melton proceeded to assault and
beat him, Hood lending a helping hand,
Melton alleging he would not have
struck him only he knew tho negro
would be believed and he was to be
dismissed anyhow. Melton is the son
of an ex-Confederate, who fought
bravely during the war, aud then 44 ac
cepted the situation ” afterward. Mel
ton was appointed to the academy by
Congressman Elliott, a colored man.

A Revivalist’s Dilemma.
Joilet, Illinois, seems to be a place
where all religionists do not have an
equal chance at straying souls. The re
vivalist Hammond and a Spiritualist
exhorter named Price attacked the
town at the same time, and at one of
Hammond’s street meetings, when he
was preaching with great unction and
vehemence from a wagon as a pulpit,
the Spiritualist drove up in another
wagon. This .was too much for the
gentleman who not long ago so agitated
the hardened in St. Louis, and before
the meeting concluded he begged the
audience, which was immense,, to dis
perse without waiting to hear “that
infidel,” who, baneful wretch, was seiz
ing an opportunity to “ ensnare souls.”
Such is the perversity of unregenerate
human nature that the assemblage,
after hearing Hammond’s doxology,
failed to disperse, and remained to al
low the Spiritualist a chance with his
blighting doctrines. The result of this
ruse of the ungodly was that Ham
mond was compelled to adopt; another
course of meetings. The churches en
gaged the largest hall in the city and
the owners of other hailscwere induced
not to rent theirs to the Spiritualist, so
that the latter gentleman had no oppor
tunity for an audience, save in the
streets, ami the weather became too
cold for such a performance. Brother
Hammond thus had things all his own
way, but it seems strange that he
should have so feared the adversary.
So puissant an exhorter as Hammond
should never have shown the white
feather before an itinerant Spiritualist.
