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 t the southern states will meet i t At- £ lanta the first of August, to discuss and act upon the jute and cotton bag ging question, and probably discuss other topics of interest to them. I Complaint is being made that too \ many members of the legislature ab- 1 sent themselves from the session. Ap- E'- plicatiqns for leave of absence'arc said i to be very numerous.
