Our worthy representatives in the
national legislative are sometimes
sorely exercised in finding ways to
spend the people's money. On one
occasion when such a fit was upon
them they decided to set up in Wash
ington a kind of a national portrait
gallery, only they propose to fill it
with statues instead of protraits.
We believe they>dl it statuary hall,
and the plan is to allow each State to
select two of its most distinguished
dead to be bnst-ed as it were, in this
hall. A State haying decided which
of her citizens she will be delighted
thus to honor, statues of them are
to be duly chiseled and placed in
this hall Just now the question as
to what two Aamgisnaare best enti
tled to this dJitaCtwiLiajyjitatins
resolution has has* introduced into
onr State deMtag maiety, now
session in Atlanta, declaring that
James Edward Oglethorpe, founder
of the colony of Georgia, and Dr.
Crawford W. Long, late of Athens,
discoverer of anaesthesia, are the two
to-be-honored names. Whereupon
Revill,’ of the Meriwether Vindica
tor, delivers himself of these senti
ments:
“We see that Mr. Yancey, of Clark
has in troduced a bill in onr Legis
lature to present statues of General
Oglethorpe and Dr. C. W. Long.
Now we venture that not one man
in a hundred has ever heard of Dr.
Long. The object of selecting men
for a place in this great gallery is to
send men whose statnes will honor
our State, not select a man who wil 1
be honored most by such selection.
Select a man with whose history
every school-boy is familiar, so that
when a Georgian visits the cnpitol
he will not nave to ask some one
who the representative from his State

-among such illustrious men as those
with whom he will be surrounded.
Among the great men already there
are Samuel Adams, George Wash

Hamilton, Woget Sherman, Unger

we have beard it meets the approval
of the judges also. Let it become a
law.
The investigating committees and
the Atlanta Sunday Gazette enter
tain widely different opinions of
Comptroller-General Goldsmith’s ad.
ministration of the affairs of his
office. The one says be is the best
Comptroller-General Georgia ever
had; the other, that be is guilty of
high crimes and misdemeanors and
gross maladministration. The Ga.

■We are sorry 'to see onr brother
going Off in this style. If we con
sider the benefits*that these men have
conferred upon the human race, Dr.
.Long is thejnar of the .best of them.
"He has conferred nponjsufferjng hu
manity a boon which can never bej

Those wfeo know him best bearj
uuanimioue testimony to the integ- 1
rity and purity of his character. As
.to school hoys being unfamiliar with
history, tbut is the fault of the book
.makers and teachers, and is so mnch
the worse for the hoy. If onr con
frere, or any other Georgian, should
visit the capital and have to make
inquiry concerning the representa
tive of bis State, he should blush for
bis own Ignorance and not lay the
blame at the door of the great and
good Dr. Long, whose name and
fame have •bendy gone abroad over
seas and eowtfnontt where those of
Crawford and Oglethorpe will never
follow it. Bather should Georgians
blnsh if poMMfanAvho were enffi
riently honored and rewarded in
their day, should be chosen for this
distinction rad this benefactor,"not of
Georgians alone, bat of the whole bn
man race, should be passed over and
neglected. It is an assumption that
the facts da not warrant to s»y that
Dr. Long weoM be more honored
than the State by hie selectk n. There
He is comparatively a young man,
ar.d an acknowledged leader.
Hon. W. M. Hammond, of Thom
as, is one of the most polished, elo
quent and forcible speakers of the
State, and has been aptly termed the
“silver-tongued orator. His sen
tences are incisive and impressive.
In integrity and ability he has no
superior, and like Aristides, he is
jnst and impartial in the elucidation
of troth.
Hon. C. D. Phillips, of Cobb,
a prominent politician of Northern
Georgia. He has occupied impor
tant positions satisfactorily to the
people. He is a lawyer of acknowl
edged ability, and with his tempera,
ment the State will have her inter-
ests guarded.
lion. J. H. Pollhill, of Jefferson, is
a man of portlr physique and com
manding presence. Bluff and gen
ial, the great force of his character
is not seen at once. His character
is well rounded, and bis great ability
will never be exercised to oppress the
innocent or shield the guilty.
Hon. W. 1. Pike, of Jackson, is a
lawyer of local prominence, good
humored and fair minded. Is a
young man of prudence and caution,
and will likely govern his conduct so
as to do equal and exact justice.
Hon. B. M. Davie, of Houston, is
of a strong nervons temperament,
energetic and bold, unswerving in the
discharge of what he may consider
to be his duty. He will doubt
less engage in the trial with all the
vigor of his intellect~and all the
strength of his judgment.
Hon. A. Pratt Adams, of Chatham,
is a fluent and graceful speaker, clear
headed and gentle hearted. He
wields a keen-edged Damascus blade
in debate and yet would scorn any
thing unfair. As a young man he
exercise a strong influence over the
General assembly, because he is lib
eral minded aud just.
The above remarks, taken from
Che Atlanta Post, are in the main
correct, but justice is hardly done to
Pike, whose talents and ability are
fully known only to those who have
sat with him on committees. He
has spoken scarcely a dozen words
in the House, bnt there are very
few members who have had more
to do with shaping the legislation
of the present General Assembly.
It is a rather strange coincidence
that the three first named of these
managers are natives of North
Carolina, but for the honor of Geor
gia I will say that I believe they
were all “caught young” and have
been trained in the courts of our
State. Mr. Davis, the sixth imu on
the list, is a native oi South Carolina.
Tom Milner, I think, wonld ffiave
been elected one of these manners,
had he not stated to the Honae that
he was no candidate. C. O. J.
something rarely oecurriag, the st-
lence of death reigned npoa the floor
and in the galleries. Every person
present seemed to feel and appreciate
the solemnity of the occasion and the
proceedings, and leaned forward in-
tently listening and eager to catch
every sylable which fell from the lips
of the clerk. It was the political
death-warrant, yea,
tne social degradation, of oat who
bnt a few months ago waa among
the moat honored of Georgia’s young
or sons, to which they listened.
The CoatptroBsr and his friends
express themselves as
his acquittal aad complete vindica.
It is stated that since the recentslan-
derons attack by Scribner on the
South the sales of that magazine
bave fallen off largely in this section.
That looks as if the Southern peo
ple still maintained their self-respect
tionat the handsof the 8enate. Aad
in passing I will say that the conduct
of those newspapers which, from evil
motives, are seeking to prejudice the
minds o r the people and of tbe Sen
ate against him cannot be too severe
ly condemned. His case now goes
before a court of justice and he shook)
receive exact justice. The Sena*ore
ought not only to be allowed, bt t
encouraged by public opinion to sit
as upright, impartial judges, not as
tiine-serving politicians If the ac
cused is gnilty of the charges pre
ferred against him he ought, regsrd-
less of his services and his hitbsrto
spotless public record, to sutler the
penalty of tbe law. If he. is not
guilty of thess charges beongbt to
be acquitted ;o{ them, regardless of
tbe clamors of designing newspaper
scribblers and the insensate cry
against “whitewashing,” aud his
former good name aad high charac
ter restored to him. There is no
denying tbe fact that there are many
things in the evidence taken before
the committee pointing to grots ir
regularities, if nothing worse, in his
office, bnt only one|side of the case
has been heardJand sorely no harm
can come from a suspension of judg
ment by the press and people until
tbe case is heard rad decided by the
highest tribunal known to the State,
and mnch injnsttaa might resalt
from an opposite coarse. The peo
ple of course know nothing of the
evidence against the Comptroller
except ai they getife ftnaljfre jiewi-
not one in fifty editors of tot State
has ever read one tenth part af that
evidence. It is thought that the
impeachment trial, added to tha unn-
sual amount of business already pen
ding, will prolong tbe session per
haps to the middle of September.
This is the opinion of Chief Justice
Warner, who says that tbe trial will
consume much more time tbaa is
generally expected it will The Sen
ate, however, has mnch less business
before it than tha House and may
possibly be able to go ou with the
trial and at the same time keep well
np with the regular holiness. Bnt
under tbe circumstances, not know
ing what is to come, 1 will venture
no opinion yet as to the probable
length of the session.
The resolution introduced into the
House on last Friday providing for
the appointment of committees to
examine into tbe affairs af the Trea
sury, the Agricultural Department,
and the offices of the School Com
missioner and principal keeper of the
Penitentiary, was r.ot based upon
any information of irregularities in
these departments, except as to the
last named officer, and the investiga
tions of the committee^appointed are
not expected to develop any startling
facts. Bnt, as some of onr friends
wonld my, “Yon can’t tell UDless
yon bet”
Whatever may be tbe immediate
effect of these investigations, they
will certainly have an excellent bear
ing on tbe future conduct of the
State honae officers. So long as it
is known to the incmUbrnts of these
offioes that all their acta will be
closely sod severely scanned and criti
cized and every irregularity and dis
honest deed unearthed and punish
ed, they will be diligent, watchful,
and honeat in the discharge of their
duties. And this course, I hope and
believe, will be followed while the
Democratic party is in power, for
whatsoever may have been, the Bins
and shortcomings of the party, it
has never shielded a dishonest or
incompetent official.
After considerable discussion the
Senate passed, on Saturday, a bill au
thorizing t he sale or lease of tbe Ma
con and Brunswick Railroad. The
bill provides for the safe of the road
at not leu than one million one
hundred and twenty-five thousand
dollars, and, if the sale cannot be ef
fected, for its lease at not lew than
sixty then sand dollars a year. Ei
ther of these modes of disposing of
the road will afford relief to the tax
payers of tbe State and it is thought
that there will be no difficulty in
making the lease on tbe above
terms. There is a strong disposition
among tbe representatives to lease
the rend and provide for its extension
to Atlanta, thus connecting with
Western and Atlantic Railroad and
giving the Statea continuous railroad
line from Chattanooga-to the Atlantic
A number of memorials and peti
tions from the colored people of va

tbe connty line fences, where good,
substantial gates are fteotd at every

that county, except pasture fences

sition at the ontset, bat now nearly
wery man yon meet with favors it
We made it a part of onr business,
iu travelling through tbe connty, to
inquire of all ciiNffi" (dot even
omitting the negrors,) how they
liked the “fence law ?” The almost
universal answer was, “We want no
fence ‘in ours.’” We observed a
great difference in thtf condition of
the stock in Anderaou connty where
they have the fence law and in the
adjoining county (Oconee) where
there is no fence law. tin Anderson
they were in good condition, while
in Oconhethey jry^’s^erajly very
was no complaint- of stock depreda
tion*, in tbe latter great complaint.
Now, as to the cast oi these conn
ty line fences. The Anderson line
fences are about 75 miles long and
cost the connty about 16,000 (havu’t
got the exact figures). These fences
were built by contract, the contrac
tors being held responsible, and lia
ble for heavy damages for any injnry
done the crops byjfggk- breaking
over the line fences frtm adjoining
counties. They are also required to
keep the fences in good repair for
three years.
We will now close oar observa
tions on the fence law. Much mure
might be said, but we do not wish
to consnme so mnch ct yonr space.
Some may be disposed to ssk tbe
question: “Would you favor the
fence law in Polk T" Wo unhesita
tingly answer we wonld- We hope
to see the day when the old ragged,
rickety, rotten farm fences in Polk—
a standing reproach to tbe enter
prise and intelligence of* her farming
population—will be wiped out oi ex
istence. Anderson led the way in
this State. Five ounaties, seeing
its benefits, have followed suit Let
old Polk lead the way in Georgia.
In a few days, Mr. Editor, onr visit
will have ended, and. we will be
“homeward bound.” How pleasant,
after yean of a been or, to visit again
the scenes of oar early foath; tread
again upon onr nativa soil; to re

When the temper of the northern
editorial mind sets in the direction
of abasing the sonthern states on ac-
count of a too freely expressed de
sire on the part of the southern peo
ple to avoid or compromise the pay
ment of obligations contracted sincU
the war, certain facts shonld be born/
in mind. In tbe first place the peo
ple, who have an eye for justice,
don’t feel responsible for debt piled
np by a parcel of republican adven
turers at a time wben the real tax
payers and property-jwnera were
practically disfranchised. In the
second plaoe the adv<n nrrej, wbo
contracted the obligations, plundered
the treasuries of the states they gov
erned, robbed the people, plundered
right and left and when the day of
retribution cauie, fled to the north
for proctection and filled tbe news
papers with the most piteous lies of
oppression, intolerance and persecu
tion. In tbe third place, these i.d
venturers were upheld in their caret r
of extortion and extravagance by the
any wonder, then, that the people of
tbe south are anxious to evade tbe
payment of obligations which mere
ly represent in their eyes a scheme
of robbery ? So far as Georgia is con
cerned, the public bad fair warning
that the people would not recognize
tbe debt put upon her by a republi
can administration, and the result
is that although the state has refu
sed to pay the bogus bonds, her cred
it is better than that of any notbern
state, for not one of them has at
tempted to float a four per cent loan.
—Atlanta Constitution.
Income Tax.
Many reasons in favor of the jns
tice and policy of an income tax at
this time might be addneed. We
are glad, to find so influential
and widely-circulated a paper as the
New York Herald taking the proper
ground on this questiou. The He
rald says that an income tax is sim
ply the most effective, most direct,
most jnst, most equitable and most
democratic means of. raising a great
revenue ever applied iu this coun
try. It does cot tax existence, does
not tax labor, does not tax the nec
essaries of iife, and does not impose
it is impoS’ible or even' difficult fo
bear, it raises money “where motley
is.” It spares the poor Irian ana
makes the rich man pay. If jon
want soldiers, go to '.he people; it-
you w?:nt.money, go ti, tbe million
aires. That is sound sense on two
gront joints of public policy, and the
financial half of that rule is filled
by tho income tax. It goes to the
millionaires, aud it is a tux nuder
which no millionaire can return him-
self as a panper without perjury and
without exposing himself to the
scandal and shame oi a suit for re-
covery of unpaid taxes. Such a
tax as that, rightly understood by
the Democrats all over the country,
wonld hardly be odious iu their eyes.
As to the cry that every law we do
not like is unconstitutional, these are
the words of John Marshall: “Let
the end be legitimate ; let it be within
the scope of tbe constitution, and
all means which are appropriate,
which are plainly adapted to the
end, which are not prohibited, bat
consistent with the letter and (pint
of the constitution, are constitu
tional.”
Theories of the Resurrection.
Some weeks ago Elder J. S. Lamar,
pastor ot the Christian Church in
Augusta, and a preacher of a high
oharacter and rare ability, created
quite a sensation by a sermon on tbe
resurrection of the dead, in which
he declared his belief that we are
not railed from the dead in' our old
earthly bodies. Many able writers
in bis denomination have taken him
to taak for his supposed heresy.
Bnt right on the heels of this sen
sation comet a similar one in the
Methodist Chnrch. Rev. D. C. Kel
ley, D.D. of Nashville, Tenn.,
learned and distinguished divine,
has preached a similar sermon, and
even gone so far as to deny (bat
there is to be a general judgment
day for all nations to come together
to be judged. Elder Lamar believes
that we take onr new body immedi
ately after death, so that a future
resurrection of the old body is un
necessary. It remains to be seen
what will be the effect of these two
remarkable sermons on the denomi
nations to which Elder Lamar and
Rev. Dr. Kelley belong.
