where there is any hope of success.

lay all or a portion of it before our
readers.
A Goon Idea.— In Quebec they
look at things in a matter of fact
nauner, A lew days ago a man
was discovered administering rat
poison to his wife in small quanti
ties, by mixing it with her food at
different times. Hie object was to
kill her for the purpose of marry
ing another woman. Ills wile did
not die, however. He was arrest
ed held for murder, of which crime
he has been com icted aud sentenced
to be banged. This is the correct
view to take of such cases.
The Northern Elections.
Who is Responsible?
We have nothing at all encour
aging to report from the elections
of the present month in several of
the Northern States. Asa general
thing the Republican majorities are
increased. We did not see any
grounds for a reasonable hope of
anything better. Nor do we see
much hope for the future, until the
Northern Democracy cau enter
the field unencumbered with the
active support of the leaders of the
South in the late struggle.
So long as Northern politicians
can hold up the ghost of the Confed
eracy in the face of their people,
and make them believe it is still
kicking, so long will the people of
the North, with fear and trembling,
seek refuge in the ranks of Radical
ism—no matter how abominable
that party may be. The loss of
liberty, and the downfall of repub
lican institutions, when placed in
the balance with Southern pluck,
and the fear of* revolution—(no
matter how groundless that fear
may be) are as a feather against the
weight of a mountain of granite.
What has Hon. A. 11. Stephens
to say of the “ returning sense of
justice to the minds of the people
of the North ?”
We honor Mr. Stephens fo v his
past services to his section. We
accord to him due houesty of pur
pose. But in thenarno ot common
sense, has it not been sufficiently
demonstrated that his continued
useless war upon the constitutional
amendments, iustead of bringing
about that returning sense of jus
tice, is driving it further and furth
er from the Northern mind ? If we
take the files of the Republican pa
pers North and South, we will find
that Mr. Stephens and his doctrine
of “ null and void,” occupy a large
space in all their columns. If we
read the speeches of their orators
wc will find they harped on this ac
tion of the Confederate Vico Presi
dent more than almost anything
else. And while they hail this for
a theme, they found but little need
for undertaking to refute the
charges of fraud and party corrup
tion, from other sources.
What reasonable man can, after
a moment’s thought, hope for a re
turning sense of justice to the
minds of the Northern people—and
an undoing of their terrible wrongs
to the whole country, while every
other considcatio' is overshadow
ed with (lie idea that these tilings
are necessary to keep a still rebel
lious section in subjection—while
that people fear that what they
gained by a bloody war, is still dis
puted and in jeopardy?
Asa lover of tbe South, who has
never known any other soil, who
has shared the dangers of her con
flicts for the right, we desire her
peace and prosperity ; wc honor aud
revere her patriots and acknowledge
their noble services in the past; but,
really, it seems to us that-the course
of Mr. Stephens at this time is lead
ing further and further beneath a
cloud which has not even a silvery
lining. Hence we cry out against
it; and we are encouraged by the
example of the immortal Lee, and
the many heroes, who w ere with
him where perils were most threat
ening, to do it boldly.
With an honest purpose to coun
sel for the good of our people, we
cau withstand the withering re
bukes of those high up the ladder of
fame; and fear not the * muttering
thunders of commingled ridicule
and scorn, though they rise from
the very 'Toombs of aaci< ut states
men.

Betiiei. Association. —This body
held its annual session at Lumpkin
week before last. We learn that
it was largely attended, and that it
passed oft* quite pleasantly in every
particular.
Among other things, the Associa
tion changed the name of the Bap
tist Female College, of this city to
,£ Bethel Female College.”
The Association meets at Albany
next year.
A man died in a New York hos
pital from swallowing half a pound
of shot, for constipated bowels, pre
scribed by an old woman.
If oil Thos. OT. Norwood.
The nomination of this gentle
man for United States Senator took
place on Friday' night, and he was
duly elected on Tuesday last, to
succeed Dr. Miller. His nomination
was not a surprise to us, and though
we would have been pleased fully
as well with the selection of another,
we cannot grumble. His election
is in keeping w Itli the moderate
conservative course of the present
Legislature, and evinces the fact
that the people arc turning their
attention to new men—or at least
those who have not been promi
nent heretofore, or are not disquali
fied, under the 14th Amendment,
which is undoubtedly the true pol
icy.
We learn from a brief personal
sketch of Mr. Norwood, published
by the Atlanta Sun, that he is 41
years of age; that he studied law
under Hon. James M. Smith at
Cullodeu ; and that he never hold
office before the war, but as a Rep
resentative in the Georgia Legisla
ture in 1861-2. The sun says of
him : “His father was possessed of
an ample fortune, hut believed it
to be proper for everybody to learn
some trade. Accordingly, lie had
the subject of this notice, who was
his youngest child, to learn the
trade of a shoe and hoot maker,
which he did ; and he made the
hoots with his own hands, which
he wore when he went to college.”
Mr. Norwood is now a leading
member of the Savannah bar, and
is a fluent and forcible ppeaker.
The Atlanta correspondent of the
Augusta Chronicle <fc Sentinel tele
graphs that after the nomination,
Mr. Norwood acknowledging the
compliment at the Kimball House,
“pronounced speech making, letter
writing, and newspapef articles, as
the bane of the South, and asserted
his intention to avoid speech mak-

A. Reid, has purchased, and is now

Legislative Synapsis.
November 10. Senate.— The
resolution of Welhourno to recom
mit to a special committee of two
from the Senate and three from the
House, the hill to appoint a com
mittee to investigate Bullock’s offi
cial conduct was adopted.
The bill to increase the punish
ment prescribed by various sections
ot the Penal Code, and changing
the penalty from misdemeanor to
felony in most cases was passed,
with some amendments.
House. —The special order was
taken up, which was a bill topro
vide for the election of a Governor
to fill the nnexpired term of Bul
lock. It occupied ttie entire session
in its discussion. The chief bone
of contention was the third section,
providing for sending duplicate re
turns to the President ot the Sen
ate and Speaker of the House in
addition to those transmitted
through the Fxccutive, as a precau
tion against the neglect or refusal
of Conley to transmit the returns.
The amendment of Simmons of
Gwinnett, to strike oat the third
section prevailed, and the bill was
passed as amended.
A message from the Executive
informed the House that he had
signed the Atlanta bill.
November 13.—Senate. —The
Committee on Public Printing re
ported adversely to the hill to let
the State printing out to the lowest
bidder.
The resolution passed by the
House on Saturday requiring the
late Treasurer and officers of the
State Road to pay over the balance
of the earnings of the State Road
still in their hands to the State
Treasurer was concurred in.
Several new bills were introduced
among them a bill by Wclborn to
incorporate an Agricultural Land
Grant Board. Erwin introduced
a bill to make slander a criminal of
fense.
House.— The following bills were
on the first reading: By Hunter—
a bill to tax dogs for educational
purposes. Also, a bill to organize
the Oconee Judicial Circuit from
counties of the Macon, Southern
and Middle Circuits.
By Cody—a bill to provide for
the creation of a Board of Tax As
sessors for each county.
By Hughes—A bill establishing
liens of physicians and school mas
ters upon crops. Also a bill repeal
ing the act providing a system of
public institution.
November 15. — House.— The
Senate amendments to the House
bill for the election of Governor,
changing the time to the third Tues
day in December, and to inaugurate
upon the day after, was concurred
in.
Among the bills on the first read
ing, the Senate resolution extend
ing the time for the collection of
taxes sixty days, was taken up.—
The Financial Committee reported
adversely by a minority and favor
ably by a majority. Lost, by 141
to 9.
Simmons, of Gwinett, offered as
a substitute to the minority report
a bill allowing collectors till 24th
December to collect, and till Janua
ry 25 to settle with the Comptroll
er. Gumming offered an amend
ment requiring the immediate pay
ment of the taxes for 1868, 1869
and 1870, which was accepted. The
substitute was adopted, and the res
olution as amended by the substi
tute was concurred in.
fSlodgett’s Great State
Road Joke.
We have heretofore kept our
readers posted on the growing di
mensions of Blodgett’s State Road
joke. At the last accounts it had
arrived at the mammoth propor
tions o f over $450,000. This
amount has been paid by the State
Treasurer.
We have just learned that the at
torney for Henry Clews & Cos., of
New York, is here, who represents
that that firm has paid out for the
State Road, on Blodgett’s drafts,
the extra sum of $3*77,000.
Thus at one unexpected swoop is
the joke doubled. The swindle
now, according to this statement,
amounts to the enormous sum of
EIGHT HUNDRED AND TWENTY-SEV
EX THOUSAND DOLLARS, (827,000,)
or over three quarters of a million.
It is frightful. It absolutely
staggers credulity. Where is this
stupendous fraud to end ? Each day
develops some addition to the debt
accumulated by Bullock arid Blod
gett upon the State’s great road.
