THE CONSTITUTIONALIST
WEDNESDAY, May 12,1875.
GEORG IA GENERA L NEWS
By the provisions of the now charter
of Atlanta, the Council is not only pro
hibited from borrowing money, but
must put aside in cash $48,750 for the
extinguishment of the floating debt.
Tiie Episcopal Convention, in session
last week at Atlanta, adopted on Fri
day, the News says, an amendment to
their Constitution which will, hereafter,
require all delegates to the Conven
tion “to be communicants instead of
only being baptized members of the
church.” The vote stood : Clergy—
yeas, 22; laity—nays, 4. St. Paul’s, of
Macon, voted yea, and Christ Church,
nay.
Coton receipts at Columbus up to
last Friday night, show a decrease of
2,131 bales, as compared with last year
to same date. The Southwestern Rail
road brought 2,809 bales—l,2B6 less
than last year; Mobile and Girard Rail
road, 14,267 —3,527 less ; Western Rail
road, 1,824—883 loss; river, 10,912 —
2,919 more ; wagon, 24,944 —1,077 more ;
North and South Road, 2,383—431 less.
From the Bishop’s address and the
parochial reports made at the last ses
sion of the Episcopal convention at
Atlanta, we gather the following sta
tistics for the past year: Baptisms
618. confirmations 438, communicants
4,173, communion alms $3,778.90, dio
cesan alms $2,990, for domestic mis
sions $148.37, and for other church ob
jects about $51,000. They state that
the number of baptisms fall below the
number reported for last year ; the
confirmations are below last year.
Savannah News: Advices from Da
rien state that twelve of the negroes
engaged in the late attempt to rescue
Tunis G. Campbell have been appre
hended and lodged in jail, and that
there is sufficient evidence to implicate
Campbell as the instigator of the trou
ble. Campbell appeared to have plenty
of mony furnished by our Northern
brethren and the Mclntosh county ne
groes It is rumored in Darien that
two negro men and one woman (who
was the noisiest of the crowd) were
killed, but like the Indians their bodies
wei e carried off by their friends. It Is
to be hoped that this vicious negro
Campbell will be put some place where
he will be unable to get his fellows in
trouble.
Atlanta Constitution : Marietta had
a first class sensation Sunday morning,
about three o’clock. The residence of
Mr. John A. G. Anderson was totally
consumed by fire. It seems that Mr.
Anderson had been burning out his
chimney, and some of the sparks must
have settled in the roof. When the fire
was discovered it had made such pro
gress that Mr. Anderson and his family,
consisting of his wife, mother-in-law
and sister-iu-luw, barely had time to
escape in their night clothes. All of
the furniture, smoke house aud out
buildings were destroyed. In a trunk
which was burnt up Mr. Anderson had
$2,500 in currency, aud S6OO in gold
and silver. The greenbacks are gone,
but the specie was found in a melted
state. Through the exertions of the
citizens, the adjoining houses were
saved. Mr. Anderson’s loss in furni
ture and money will fully reach $5,000.
The house was in the hands of A. M.
Simpson, agent, and was insured for
$1,500.
Macon Telegraph: A large meeting of
the Irish citizens of Macon was held
jit the engine house of Oemulgee Fire
Company No. 2 last night, and it was
determined to form a volunteer mili
tary company, to be composed of Irish
men and men of Irish descent, to be
called the Mitchell Light Infantry—
after the illustrious John Mitchell, who
has lately shone so brilliantly upon the
horizon of Irish history, and has gone
down amid a halo of honor which won
for him the affection of his people all
over the world. The Governor will be
notified at once of the organization of
this company, and will bo asked to
issue an order for the formal election of
officers. If the movement is carried on
with reasonable activity, in two months
the company can be organized, uni
tunned, armed and equipped, aud
ready to become the sixth company of
the Second Georgia Battalion.
Savannah News , 11: Avery import
ant decision was t’endeied in the Unit
ed States Circuit Court, in this city
yesterday. It seems that some time
ago the County Commissioners of
Glynn county issued bonds for the pur
pose of building a now Court House
aud jail, and for making other improve
ments. These securities were for the
most part negotiated iu this city. In
the absence of any provision on the
part of the Commissioners to pay the
iuterest on these obligations as it fell
due, suit was brought iu the Circuit
Court, and yesterday Judge Erskine
issued a peremptory writ of manda
mus requiring the Commissioners to
levy a special tax upon the property in
Glynn county this year sufficient to
pay all costs and twenty-five percent,
of the judgment, and the same for each
succeeding year until the debt is can
celled.
An Atlanta Herald reporter has had
a talk with Col. Felton, Congressman
elect from the VII District. Speaking
of the next Governor, these two great
men said:
Reporter—How do you estimate all
the talk that we have about au “ inde
pendent ” candidate for Governor ?
Col. F.—l think it quite likely that e
shall have one. The people are sick of
conventions aud have lost confidence
iu them. The feelings against conven
tions is growing daily. I feel sure that
there are a large number of Democrat
ic voters—l think fully one-third of
the party—who will, all things being
equal, vote against the nominee
of a convention, simply because
he is the nominee. The election of Mr.
Hill in the Niuth District is a splendid
evidence of this feeling. The people
of Cherokee Georgia are very much de
termined to submit to no improper
nomination. They want the next
Governor, and they will try to have
him unless a very excellent man is put
up. I think they would support either
W. T. Wofford or A. li. Wright. They
would be satisfied w ith Colquitt or
Gartrell, probably. If a rnaij below
Atlanta is nominated, or au improper
man above Atlanta, he will be beaten,
I think, aud beaten easily. The people
are tired of Conventions.”

No More Jumping the Track.
(New York Sun.]
To prevent tile numerous accidents
to which railroad trains are liable from
one car jumping the track, it is pro
posed to apply to cars a kind of shoe,
consisting of a clamp like arrangement
which is affixed between the wheels of
each truck. This runs about two
inches ab n-e the rail, and if anything
happens to throw the wheels from the
track the clamp at once grasps the
rails, holds the car on the track and
briuge the train to a speedy halt. Such
a shoe *vlll, it is claimed, prove a great
saving of railroad rolling stock, and
will add one-third to the strength of
the truck, it being constructed of iron
and weighing five hundred pounds. It
is found by expeiiments made with
oars provided with this device that the
arrangement insures perfect security
against the class of accidents it is de
signed to meet; and it is also estima
ted that, on account of the additional
atreng l a which such an attachment
must necessarily supply, a “war must
last twice as long, on an average, with
ss without ib
Again.
Come, gently breathing o’er the eager land,
With fresh green grass that springs to
kiss thy feet,
With little brooks that sparkle In the sand,
April’s faint shining clouds both soft and
fleet,
All the fair things that do thine advent
greet,
Flowers with their blue eyes still by snow
drifts wet,
Bouth winds and flying showers; all, all,
how sweet!
% Let me forget!
Spill from thy white hands till the tender
buds,
An opal mist in every gray old tree;
I our from thine urn the rushing silver
floods
That leap and dance and struggle to be
free;
Coax the pink May blooms to look up at
thee,
Fearlass of stormy wind or frosts that fret;
Enchantress, bring not back the past to
me;
Let me forget!
Alas! when all thy spells but hide a sting,
When the wild blossoms in each fragile
bell
A lurking drop of bitter honey bring;
When hills aud forosls one worn story
tell,
When through the bird’s new warble
sound* a knell,
When grief and sweetness are in all things
met,
When winds repeat those voices loved too
well,
Can I forget ?
Four pangs of earth! I know theTe comes
a day,
Not far nor late, when God’s restoi ing
Spring
Shall set aside these miracles of clay,
And His serene, immortal Summer bring,
Wherein I shall not pine for anything -
Not mortal love, nor l< ss nor weak regret.
But at Ilis feet my grateful rapture sing,
And so forget!
