Every difficulty the country in a state of terror and between tbe races in the South since i.ig over Georgia when the tax-gath erer conies around. We were opposed to paying the lessees any betterments, but urged the necessity of our representatives meeting them as one business man should another, and ‘ making at least an attempt to settle the differences with an eye to tbe interests aud hon or of our State. But instead of this, these members closed their ears to reason,- and listened only to the whine of tbe demagogues. As a natural consequence they have de feated the very ends which, as guar tiians of the public interests, they should have furthered. The legis lature just adjourned gives promise of wrecking this splendid piece of property even more effectually than Senator Brown threatened to do in his letters. They will not only de. prive the State of the handsome in come she has received monthly from the road, bat will also force its busi ness through other and rival chan nels, so that even if a lease is effect ed in the future, it will be like build ing up a new road. This shows the folly of our voters selecting men to represent them who pay more heed to popular clamor than to the voice of reason. The intelligent and thinking people of Georgia were willing to do the fair thing by the lessees of this road, and only wanted what was rightfully their own. But the cry of “monop oly,” “ corporations,” “ lobbyists,’ etc., was raised by a few men who wanted to create a popular tide on which to float into office, and they prevented even an effort at a settle ment of these claims. The result of this unbusiness-like action will be that the State will have to take again in band her rail road, aud operate it with men who do not understand the business. The expenses will be Margety increas ed, and the receipts greatly lessened This railroad will again be brought into . politics, and all the evils and troubles attendant thereon be re peated. Now had a settlement been made with the L. & N., and that corpora tion appeased, the same company would gladiv have re leased the pro perty at a"n increased rental, and all would have gone on smoothly. It is too late now to remedy the trouble. It will be a bad day for Georgia when no bids are received for the road, and it must again be operated by tbe State officials. case Is not to befonud in said county andit lur- tber appearing by evidence}: atisfactory to the court that said defeudait reside- 1 bevond the limits of saidState to-wit, in the Stotc bf Al abama.

The Brunswick company most properly heeded the appeals of tbe citizens and remained on guard in the town. Of course we do not propose to place our judgment in opposition to that of tbe commanders of this mil itia, hut wc venture the assertion that had Governor Gordon sent a couple of companies of our up- country boys—the Clarke County Rifles or Elberton Light Infantry for instance—to Jessup, that their first act would have been to charge that swamp and capture Brewer and his gang, if they had to wade through mud up to their arm pits. Then again, it seems to us a reflection that a mob should be permitted to enter and prejudice. The consequence is the negro is made to believe that the 1 white people are his enemies and oppressors, and are induced to resort to extreme or lawless measures to secure his imaginary rights.
