From the numberff important bills
before the legislature, supplemented
with the flood of smaller and less im
portant measures, it would appear
that that body has bit off about all it
can chew.
An Important Bill.
The Atlanta Journal has the follow
ing notice of the action of the legisla
ture on Mr. Alexander’s school hill:
“Mr. Alexander’s bill, to enable
any ronnty to levy and collect a
special ad valorem tax for school pur
poses, raised a much greater storm
about it than seemed to have been
expected.
The bill embodies a new idea, an
experiment. It was, in several par
ticulars, one of the most important
bills before the present legislature.
It provided that one-fifth of the
free holders ef any county could, on
petition, secure an election for longer
schools, and the levying of a tax of
one mill for the support of longer
terms of public schools.
Mr. Lewis, of Hancock, spoke
against the hill. lie said it would
bring a rabble about the polls. If
the whites were divided, the negroes
would control the election, and the
property holders would have to pay
tax which they had no part in levy
ing.
Mr. Candler, chairman of the com
mittce on education, advocated the
bill.
Mr. Atkinson, of Coweta, opposctl
the hill as being “in the teeth of the
constitution;” it would work an injury
to the property holders and to the
white citizens of some of the lower
counties.
Mr. Gamble, of Jefferson, offered to
amend it by making it necessary, be
fore such an election is ordered, to
have the recommendation of two
grand juries. Ifc was in favor of the
bill if amended.
Air. Candler again defended the
bill. If only one feature of the bill
is bad, a few words could change and
perfect it.
Mr. Gamble offered to amend by
restricting voters to freeholders.
Mr. Brown, of Harralson, is op
posed to the freeholder amendment.
Mr. Berner, of Monroe, said that
the amendment would exclude from
votiug men who paid large taxes,
merely because they’ were not free
holders. He wanted the ayes and
npvs.
Ayes and nays were called,‘and the
amendment of Mr. Gamble, as to free
holders, was lost.
Mr. Atkinson, of Coweta, offered
to amend by inserting the provision
that the election must bo recommend
ed by two successive grand juries.
Mr. Gleun, of "Whitfield, spoke
against the amendment. It “keeps
the word of promise to the car and
breaks it to the heart.” It thus falt
ers with us iu a double sense, and
would render the law imperative, and
give us a reputation of mere pretense.
The previous question was called
on amendments and bill.
Mr. Atkinson’s amendment .was
adopted.
On the vote ou the bill the ayes
were 85 anil the nays •°)7, and thus Jit
failed of a constitutional majority.
The commissioners of agriculture of

A woman was arrested in Savannah
yesterday for stealing an umbrella.
O, woman, woman! how could you
take that umbrella? The sex is dis
graced. It would uot surprise us to
hear of a man taking an umbrella;
but a woman! We would gladly
draw the veil of silence and charity
over the transaction, but a stern duty,
which wc owo to the public, demands
. that the crime be aot covered up.
