Western & Atlantic Rail
koad. —The lessees of the State
Railroad have paid $25,000 into
the treasury, rental for the month
of March. While the road is in the
hands of its present managers, the
money is sure to come every month.
Wo are glad to learn that this
very important road is being rapid
ly placed in first class order.
Tiie Fish Assassination.— lt
turns out that llqn. G W. Fish, ol
Oglethorpe, was assassinated by a
negro, at the instigation of an old
man named Lloyd, who was an ap
plicant for the Judgeship, to which
Fish had recently been appointed.
There being some grounds for sus
picioning these part'es, they were
lodged in jail—occupying the same
apartment. Before placing them in
jail, however, the room vas cleaned
up, and furnished with looking
glass, new buckets, and two goods
boxes to serve as table and wash
stand. Two police detectives front
Atlanta who wore concealed under
these boxes, heard enough from the
lips of the prisoners to establish
their guilt.
Complimentary.— We learn that
the Rev. M. B Wharton, pastor of
the first Baptist Church of Eufaula,
has been invited to deliver a poem
before the Literary Societies of
Richmond College at its commence
ment occasion in June next.
Atlanta has nine females peek
ing rock in the jail yard.
The prospect of a wheat crop
in the West is splendid.
Christ Church, Macon, has a
new organ, which cost three thou
sand dollars.
Governor English of Connec
ticut, has issued a proclamation ap
pointing the 7th day of April as a
day of fasting and prayer.
The Eufaula Times puts dowr.
34,939 bales as the total receipts of
cotton at that place since Septem
ber.
—The Atlanta Sun gives the Ma
con Telegraph a severe lecture
about its first of April Ku Klux
hoax.
Railroads of narrow gunge arc
coining into vogue. They are
about building a two and a half
feet guage road from Allentown to
Harrisburg, in Penaylvania.
—Prom a column of postmasters’
certificates published in the Savan
nah News, we can but believe the
circulation of that excellent paper
is as extensive as that of the Cuth
bert Appeal.
Mr. Andrew Haight, recently
the agent foT Stone & Murray, has,
in company with Mr. Wooten, of
Atlanta, organized anew circus
company in that city.
The Germans expelled from
France, during the recent war, it is
estimated, amounted in number to
one hundred and twenty thousand.
The average indemnity for direct
losses suffered by this expulsion is
placed at six-hundred dollars a head,
so that the entire damages arising
from this harsh war measure amounts
to seventy-two millions of dollars.
The Virginia Senate has pass
ed a joint resolution expressing the
opinion that any person who is en
titled to vote under the Constitu
tion of the State of Virginia is eli
gible to a seat in either House of
the General Assembly, such posi
tion not being an office within the
meaning of the Fourteenth Amend

United States.
The Georgia Medical Associ

It is hoped that every section of
the State will be fully represented.
J. B. llinkle, M. D-,
Ch’rm’n. Com. of Arrangements.
The platform of the “new par
ty” just organized in Cincinnati, by
ex-Secretary Cox and other dissatis
fied Republicans, has for its cardi
nal principles, general amuesty,
tariff for revenue only, civil service
reform, and early resumption of spe
cie payments. In each of these par
ticulars it puts itself in antago
nism to the prevailing sentiment of
the Republican party. The new
movement appears to create excite
ment in the Republican ranks.
The Brunswick and Albany Rail
road.
Since our last issue, the commit
tee appointed by our Council, con
sisting of lion. W. M. Tumlrn, Col.
A. Hood and Mayor Kiddoo, for
the purpose of visiting Atlanta, and
conferring with Col. If. I. Kimball,
President of this road, relative‘to a
report that said road would pass
some four miles south of this place,
have visited but were dis.
appointed in not meeting Col. Kim
ball, as he was absent in New York
at the time.
The committee met and conferred
with Mr. E. N. Kimball, who rep
resented his brother ; and from a
correspondence between him and
Col. Tumlin, (which we have had
the pleasure of reading,) we wero
pleased to see that he gave every
assurance that no change had been
made in the original contemplated
location of the road, and that it
woxddpass through Cuthbert, and
further that the President would
carry out all his agreements to this
end in good faith.
Too much importance cannot be
attached to this railroad enterprise,
and our citizens will rejoice to learn
the fallacy of the rumors that have
been rife upon our streets the past
fortnight.
In this connection, it affords us
pleasure to assure Col. Kimball
that all charges or intimations to
the effect that the pledge given by
him to our Representative, (Col.
Tundin,) of the passage of the road
through Cuthbert would be disre
garded or repudiated, have invari
ably been frowned down and deci
dedly and successfully refuted by
Col. Tnmlin. Time and again have
we heard him assert his positive as
surance that Col. Kimball would
not only carry out this pledge, but
any and all others he may make,
and would allow' no charge against
his fidelity to go by unheeded or
unanswered.
Col. Kimball, as well as the citi
zens of this county, are fully aware
of the zeal and untiring energy of
Col. Tumlin in securing this impor
tant road to our city, and we feel*
assured he will not suffer his ardor
to wane in this critical moment for
the future welfare and prosperity
of our city and count}'.'
Col. Kimball, the President of
this road will be in Atlanta on the
10th inst., and at the request of his
brother, Col. Tumlin will meet him
there and confer with him in per
son. No stronger assurances may
be expected from the President, of
the location of this road, than was
given in the correspondence above
alluded to, as Mr. E. N. Kimball
was addressed as President, pro
tem., and was so acting, and his an
swers to the interrogatories were to
the point and positive.
We should therefore scout all re
ports as to this road passing us by,
under the full conviction that the
Presklent xvill faithfully comply
with his pledge, and run his road
through Cuthbert.
“ Look out for the train when the
whistle blows.”
Poor Fellows.
Holdeh, the impeached Gover
nor of North Carolina, is in Wash
ington City, trying to have his
State outlawed. And that’s the
way with these scallawags aud jay
hawkers, when overtaken in a ca
reer of rascality—they fly to the
open arms of Grant and Butler,
and cry out “ Ku Klux ! Ku-Kiux !
and marshal law for the South !”
And here is the way the misera
ble gallows-cheater, Sturgess, talks,
after instigating the negroes to ri
ot, at. Meridian, Miss.,.and taking
to his heels as soon as the fight
commenced. He ought to be tar
red and feathered and then com
pelled to hear Susan Buncomb An
thony’s lecture on woman’s rights
twenty-seven nights in succession :
“I am much a sufferer in pain and
feeling, but I believe that the State
of Mississippi is able to indemnify
me. Let me urge the necessity of
having marshal law proclaimed
throughout every Southern State,
The soldiery to be sent there should
be quartered on the Rebels. Len
iency will not do. Gratitude, they
have none.. Reciprocation of fa
vors they never dream of.”
- The Atlanta Inteligencer says
freights on the State Road have
fallen off in amount nearly one-half.
This is, in some measure, attributed
to the cheap steamer rates to Mont
gomery, lately established by the
way of New Orleans, absorbing al
most the entire Alabama demand
that has heretofore passed over this
road.
Connecticut.— The latest news
from this Slate increases ihe prob
ability that the election devolves
upon the Legislature—giving Eng
lish a majority of five.
The Republicans have the Con
necticut Legislature by five in the
Senate and fifteen inr the House.
St. Louis has been swept hy the
Democrats. The majority is prob
ably 2000.

A Letter from Senator Blair.
Washington, March 18, 1871.
To M. M. Coolce, Editor of the
Montgomery (Ala.) Mail:
Dear Sir— -Yours of the 11th
instant has just been received I
am flattered by your request that
I should endeavor to eompose the
“dead issue” controversy among
our friends in the South, aqd I
might be tempted to proffer my
adviee to them if I thought it would
be effective. But our people don’t
like to be advised. They prefer
discussion and to form opinions
on public questions by that process.
I have contributed in that way and
shall continue to do so to the ut
most of my ability. * *
In jny judgment the actual issue
of the campaign is the broad one,
whether we have a Federal Union
on a constitutional basis, or an ab
solute Government, with power in
the hands of those who possess it
to prolong »ts own existence indef
initely. This draws in review the
past and continuing process by
which the arbitrary Government of
to-day has been established anti is
to be maintained, and the Recon
struction acts and the amendments
must necessarily figure in this re
view; but the question of whether
they went through the forms that
entitle them to be put on the stat
ute book is really ah immaterial
one. It does not change the argu
ment a particle whether the forms
were complied with or not, and it
does not affect our ability to put the
Government in the hands of the
people if we carry the election,
whether they are valid or invalid.
The manner in which these
amendments were adopted, and the
still more significant measures pass
ed and proposed for their enforce
ment, ought to satify men of all sec
tions and parlies that liberty itself
is at stake in the coming conflict.
No thoughtful observer of the
present aspect of public affairs,
who does not, from timidity, wil
fully shut his eyes to the conclusion
of his reason, can doubf, that those
who to grasp power have subvert
ed the organic law, in defiance of
the known will of the people, will
fail to adopt any other measures of
fraud and violence which may be
lound necessary to maintain them
in the possession of it, and that our
only security against new and great
er violence than has heretofore
been practiced, is by the timely
awakening of our people to the real
dangers which surround them—so
that a spirit may be aroused which
will overawe and disarm those dar
ing enemies. Not to see, or to af
feet not to see, this danger, and to
engage the public mind in the dis
cussion of economic and civil
service measures, and to ' belit
tle the Iron man who so lately
brought that Senate to his feet
which had his predecessor pleading
at their bar, is to cry “peace when
there is no peace,” and so contii
buto to betray the country.
If our Iriends would unite in an
earnest effort to arouse the country,
all will be well. And to this end
it is only necessary to let the peo
ple see what the real issue is. Nor
have I any fears that they will fail
to see it. They already see it in
spite of the mistaken efforts of
some of our friends who counsel
what they think is policy, as if it
was a matter of convention among
public men what the issues should
be, and not a matter of fact, which
they cannot control any more than
they can the advent of the seasons.
They may not see it so plainly, ei
ther because they do not obsen e
with sufficient attention, or because
they shrink from it from feebleness
and apprehension. Lot us go to
the people fairly and boldly and in
voice their judgment upon the rec
ord Radicalism has ma.de for it
self. Alim the contrivances by
which the Radicals have sought to
trammel the people and fortify
themselves in power can thus be ef
fectually swept away.
The differences among our friends
to which you refer are not serious.
They arise, I believe, chiefly from
the mistaken idea that those who
continue to assail reconstruction
and the amendments intend to abol
ish negro suffrage. This is not the
object, and it is a very inadequate
view of the subject. This suffrage
really depends very little on the
amendments, because, among other
things, it has not accomplished the
object of those who impose it
(which was to give them the con
trol of the South), and they have
beguu themselves already to dis
fiense with it in the District of Co
umbia, where it was first started.
But the States which have adopted
it do not propose to revoke it, and
will not, I am confident, unless, af
ter a fair trial, it is shown to be
necessary fora good government.
The Fifteenth Amendment will, in
this event, be easily disposed of,
for the Radicals, who have already
ceased to have a motive to maintain
it, will have ceased to cant on the
subject.
It is not, therefore, to gel rid of
negro suffrage that we continue to
assail and refuse to acquiesce in
usurpations hy which the govern
ments of the people have been and
will continue to be wrested from
them. The contest is not to take
away suffrage from the negroes, but
to preserve that wise distribution
of the powers of government with
out which all suffrage is but a mock
ery, and to prevent that control by
’the national functionaries which is
sure to create imperialism, and will
inevitably degrade, impoverish and
enslave the toiling masses.
~ Yours truly,
Frank P. Blair.
Tlie Constitution does not pro
vide for an Executive barber, and
as Grant does not like to incur the
expense of one himself, he employs
a negro in that capacity and has
him paid as a twelve hundred dol

any kin to Grant, either.— Courier

Next week this cobimu will contain
a list of Grand and Petit-Jurors, drawn at
the last Court, for the September Term of
Clay Superior Court. » - . '
pSr We publish.this week the present
ments of the Grand Jury of Clay County,
for the Spring Term of .1871. held last week.
The Grand Jury, failing to authorize their
publication, we devote this much space in
our columns to this purpose, for the benefit
of our numerous readers in that county.
We have been furnished this copy through
the courtesy of Mr, J. L Tucker, clerk of

Grand Jury Presentments of Clay
County March Term, 71.
We, the Grand Jurors ill the county of
Clay. State of Georgia, for the March term,
1871, beg-leave. t 6 make the following pre
sentments :
We have, through our different committees,
examined the books of the different eouuty
officers. We find a balance in the hands of
our county Treasurer amounting to $259 of.
his books are neatly and correctly kept. The
Tax Collector’s books are in good order.—
There is still uncollected taxes amounting to
two or three hundred dol'ars out-idc of in
solvent list- The Ordinary’s books are In
good condition, neatly and correctly kept.
We also learn from the Ordinary that Ihe
Court House lias ost about $6500, and tba;
it will require about SSOO more to cover the
same so as to protect it troin the weather ;
this latter amount includes shingles, nails,
and mechanic’s pay. To accomplish this
much-needed work the Ordinary has had to
use the credit of the county to the amount
of about one thousand dollars, as the work
has and will cost about seven thousand dol
lars, and the taxes o( 1860 and 1870 amount
to only six thousand dollars. We believe
that a similar per cent, levied the present
year (that is to say 100 per cent .) a.s was
levied in 1869 and -1870. will not only dis
charge present indebtedness but will put
tlie same in a condition to be used, leaving
the finish of said building to be paid for .by
another year's taxation, which, iu our opin
ion, will not lie more than half of post assess
ments. Tile Ordinary reports school fund
collected to the amount of SSOO, and ac
counts rendered against the county amount
ing to S6BO 80 leaving a balance due by
thecounty to the amount of 180 SO.
We find the jail in u lerably good condi
tion, three keys are lost, and one lock has
been rendered unfit for use. TANARUS! e City Coun
cil are using one room of the jail for a Calla
boose, which wc think should not be.
We recommend the following taxes to be
levied (cr the following purposes during the
year : 85 per cent, on the State tax for gen
eral purposes— 15 per cent, on the Slate tax
(cr Paupers, and 100 per cent, on the State
tax for public buildings.
We recommend the following persons to
be placed upon the Pauper List of the Coun
ty : Mrs. McKinnie, Mrs. Ann Claike, and
Mrs. Aisio I).iy.
The matter of levying a tax for defraying
the expense* of the District Court has been
brought bef'»re us, and as there is a case now
pending wiihin the limits of this District
touching the constitutionality of said Court,
we suggest that if the Court be decided con
stitutional, and it becomes necessary to levy
an extra tax to defray the expenses of said
Court, tiie Ordinary do so.
Confined in our county jail, is a lunatic,
Wm. Sutton, Jr., whose condition is very
bad. We le3rn that his family are unable
to bear his expenses, and that lie destroys
everything iu the shape of clothing that is
oarried to him, and our committee found
him, when inspecting the jail, almost entirely
divested of all cloth iug. He lias been sent
to the Lunatic Asylum of Ihe State, but was
returned with tire report that there was no
room for him ; we therefore earnestly request
that our next Legislature take action upon
the subject of having our State Asylum en
larged immediately. We also request that
Hon John C. Wells, our Ordinary, corres
pond with Doctor Greene, Superintendent of
the Asylum, with regard to his case, and
have room made for him as early as possible.
We also recommend that the proper author
ities inquire if any part of the State tax in
this co.unly can be appropriated to his case.
In regard to public roads, we all very well
know, and fully appreciate the tael, that in a
hilly and sandy country during raiuy wea
ther, it is impossiole to keep public roads at
all limes iu tlie most perfect order. We find
lhal ali the public roads have been put in
lawful order, but the very recent heavy rains
have to some extent, though not materially
damaged them. Our present Commissioners
have manifested unusual interest, and dis
played a zeal hitherto unknown in their ef
forts to have all the roads come fully np to
tbe standard of tbe law. We find also that
the abuitmeut of the bridge across Semociiee
cbobec creek at Brown’s mill needs repair,
atid would cali tbe attention of the Counmis
sioners to tlie fact. We dill attention to
some of Ihe roads in the incorporate limits Os
Fort Gainses, which are in bad condition,and
would recommend the proper authorities to
put the same in good Older. We recommend
: that the road Irom the Cotton Iliil fork, lead
ing to Fort Gaines by what is known ns the
Weaver Bridge on Semocheeciiobee creek, be
done away with to the limits of the city
corporation. We further recommend that a
committee be appointed by our Ordinary to
survey and locate a road starting at the said
fork to Cotton Hill, passing in front of thee
residence of Robert Brown, and intersecting
the Locofoco road, about two hundred yards
north of the rail road, and that said road be
opened as early as possible. We further rec
ommend that the road leading from the Cot
ton Hill, to the Cuthbert road .by residences
of James Jester, Chas. Ashley, j no. T. Jes
ter, Jno. Liudsey and others, which was re
eriuly done away with, be again made a
public road, and that no hands be allowed to
work said roads, except those living imme
diately upon it.
We tender our sincere thanks to his Honor,
Judge Harrell, and 8. W. Parker. Esq., Solic
itor G neral, for their uniform courtesy to
ward our body during our session. All of
which is respectfully submitted.

Things arc “getting no better ”
in France at a rapid rate. The
Thiers Government began the at
tempt to put down the insurrec
tionary Communists on the 2d, and
there was fighting at various points
on that day—one serious engage
ment. About 2,000 National Guards
inarched on Courbevoie, and were
met by Gen. D’Aarmes, and the
Gardes Forestiers. The captain of
the latter galloped up waving his
cap, intending to address the Com
munists, when a zouave with that
body shot him dead. A general ac
tion followed. Gen. D’Armes took
five prisoners, one 76 years of age,
who were shot immediately. The
guns of Fort Yalerien swept the
road, and the Communists fled.—
Twenty-five Insurgents were killed,
and many wounded. The engage
ment was over at 1 o’clock.
A London dispatch of the 3d,
says the Paris Commune has issued
a decree arraigning Thiers, Favre,
Picard, Dufaure, Simon and Ppth
nan before a tribunal ol the people,
and ordering their properties to be
seized. Another decree pronounces
the separation of the Church and
State. This suppresses religious
bodies and abolishes national prop
erty.
On the 3d, the London Times’
correspondent gave the following
as the situation :
Bergeret, with 15.000 men, is
completely cut off. Then Flourens
was purposely permitted to effect a
junction. Flourens and Bergeret,
with 35,000 men, must surrender
or fight at the greatest disadvan
tage.
The Daily News’ dispatches cot -
firm the rout of the iusurgents,
who proved great blustering cow
ards, and who expected that Valeri
on would fraternize with them.—
The Pontifical Zouaves shot all the
prisoners instantly.
The Telegraphs’ correspondent
reports that lie saw Gen. Henry
killed by a shell from Mont Valeria
en, and Bergeret’s carriage and bor*
ses were destroyed in the same
manner. The men were thrown in
to a panic-stricken rout.
At noon Monday two corps ot in
surgents advanced toward Versailles
—one via Neudon and Chntillon,
aud the other by way of Reuil-Coth
—were routed with heavy, loss, aud
Flourens killed. The troops whose
expected defection constituted the
hopes of the insurgents behaved no

The Enquirer of Saturday says:
The voting yesterday on the rat
ification of the subscription by the
city of §200,000, to the above en
terprise, passed oft' very quietly
aud orderly. There were few per
sons at the polls at any one time,
and apparently little or no effort
was made to influence votes for or
against the measure. Not more than
two-thirds of the registered voters
of the efty went to the polls, the
test was probably as fair as could
have been made. As will he seen,
the voting was almost unanimous
in favor of subsciption. Out of a
total vote of 620, 562 were “for
subscriptionss “against sub
scription 3 scattering—showing
a majority of 507 in favor of the
appropriation. We believe a ma
jority of the large property holders
voted for the railroad, as well as
nearly all the yonng men of much
influence in the city.
