Death of Hon. T. 11. Ti’lppc.
I: become* our painhil duty to ai>
Kounce the death of our esteemed and j
honored fellow citizen, Hon. Turner j
il. Trippe. He died suddenly, ii is j
believed of Apoplexy—at his residence '
a few miles from Cassvillc, on the 20th j
josi int. lie complained a short while !
before his death of weakness and faint
ne»t. hut never spoke after he was
seized by the fatal shook —expired im
mediately.
Judge Trippe was born in Hancock
County, (Icorgia, of highly respected
parents in the year of 1801, and was at
the (time of his demise, about 60 years
old. Ills father, ninety odd years old,
still lives, and is astonishingly healthly
and aetive. The Judge was educated
at Franklin .College, where he gradua
ted, and immediately adopted the pro
fession of Law. While comparatively
young, he filled the office of So!. Gen’l.
on one ol the Northern circuits, and in
tnaturer life presided about eight years,
as Judge of the ’Superior Count of the
t’hcfivkce circuit. The time for
which he held the office is the best ev
tuience of the ability and integrity with
which lie tilled it. For several years
before the war he had retired from prac-
tice, but on the organization of our new
•County Court, he was induced by the
solicitation of It's friends once more to
assume the judicial ermine. In tins
office he continued to exhibit that in
tegrity and impartiality, which have
ewer distinguished him through liie;
and tho’ he had arrived at that age
when most men find their strength to
be but “labor and sorrow”, his intellect
seemed to have Isoree llie ravages of
time as well as his untarnished tnorsals
had withstood the corruption '»! the
age. No matter in whit 1 ght w,e re
gard him, his life must be considered a'
success. Indeed he united in his per
son and character, a combination ol
qualities that must always insure more
or less of honorable success. A firm
beliewex in the power of faith, a con
stant dhicipie of Christianity—carrying
it with him in all the departments of
life — a firm adherence ito the right and
ainwavering opposition to the wrong—
holding always to his integrity above
seduction of office or the allurements
.of wealth—moderate and conservative
in his views, yet decided iu his princi
ples—avoiding the extremes of fanati
cism on the one hanJ and the tor
pidity of indifference on the other —
a good citizen, a kind neighbor, and
a consistent friend —the head ot a large
andiuteiestiug family, with his cflec
tion* expanded and purified and exalt
ed bv a husband’s duties and a father s
rare ; be could not have been other
wise than successful among the people
with whom he lived. Kis manner, nt
life was iu unison with his intellectual
qualities and moral endowments —sim-
ple, plain, and frank, without ostenta
tion or vanity. Modest iu his desires
and aspirations he was scrupulous in
keeping the faith and fulfilling his
promises. In all the relations and ir
.cumslances of life, be judged with
moderation, and acted with prudence, ;
hence whenthe storm ol revolution sewpi j
over this country iu the Winter of sixty. ;
the Conservative men of the county
with great unanimity sent him to the
{State Convention as one of their Repre
sentatives. lie had temper and spirit,
discretion, prudence, manlines' and
gentility which resented affronts with
firmness.
While he avoided temerity and eh'
oliiions of passion, he united the
ability and gravity ot a Judge, with the
suavity of advocate, the dtflerence of
an equal, and the kindness of a friend.
’Through his long life, public and pri
vate, lie retained the confidence of ids
fellow citizens, his last years having
been crowned with repeated assurances
of their unshaken trust, in his faith
fulness, “Behold, an Isrcalitc indeed,
m whom there was no guile.” he has
fought a good fight, kept the faith,
ami, we believe, while we write, is one
of the crowned saints of Heaven.—
i'ull ot years and honors, he has been
carried to his grave! lamented and
ra-14/iuJ l>y all that knew him, ’‘The
silver cord has been loosed! the golden j
bowl—the pitcher at the fountain ! the
wheel at the cistern, have been broken !
The dust has returned to the earth as
it was, and the Spirit to GjJ that gave
it!’’

The Carter*vlt 1c and VauWerl
Hall Hoad.
In our last issue we promised to re
sume the consideration of this impor
tfuil Rail lUoatl enterprise. Its hene
-1 lilts to this [date cannot he questioned
lot a moment, by those who take a
broad and comprehensive view of the
j subject, and reflect that the trade from the
regions around Van Weit so abundant
* in valuable minerals, is liable to be en
tirely directed from here by ttie success I
of rival Rail Road projects to the one
|wo are considering. The trade from
j Polk and the counties adjacent thereto,
j must either be brought to Cartersville
i by a railroad leading from here to Van
| Wert, or it will reach Atlanta and th"
: Western market by some ollu r ta Load;
and thus Cartersville be enlrely cut oil
from its benefits. We are ol opinion,
independent of such considerations that
the Cuitersviile Si Van Wert Ii dl Rod,
with all the advantages in its favor Irom
nature and from generous aid from the
S' ate, will be one of the best paying
institutions iu the land ; at the same
time are equally decided that Carters
\ illc, from he benefits dt rived trom the
road, and from the development of the
natural resources by which it is sur
rounded, will soon swell to the propor
tions of a citv.
In estimating the importance of the
Cartersville Si Van Wert Rail Road,
the mind is left alone on the quantity
of slate that will be carried over it: but
this is a very narrow vii w to take of
the subject. In addition to slate there
will be carried over tbe road, lumber
Irom the long leal pine—a buiness for
the road that for twenty years will be
equal to that of slate; lime from the
best lime rock, itself a business scarcely
less than the other two ; cotton, corn,
wheat, heyi potatoes apples, tan bark,
charcoal, Sic, Sic. Let us look at some
of these articles separately. We learn
that there was hauled from the quarries
at Van Wert to this place last year, one
million pounds of roofing slate. Let
the road be built, and there would be
fifty times as much, or 3,000 car loads.
This quantity instead of diminishing
would increase. For twenty years the
shipment of lumber over the road would
be as great ; but alter that it might he
reasonably expected to diminish. The
amount of cotton shipped over the road
would be, At tire least calculation, ten
thousand bales annually. Os wheat
there would be 100.000 bushels ; the
same quantity ol corn. It is well
known that the apples from Polk, Pauld
mg, Ilarralson and Carroll counties
(which counties would send their pro.
duce over this road) are equal to any
Northern apples, and though there
would not be at first so much of this
kind of freight lor the road, the quantity
would indefinitely increase as the
culture of the orchard was found to be
profitable. The quantity of lime sh ip
ped over the roarl would iu weight bear
no proportion to the first two articles
named, slate and lumber. We have
said nothing of Iron although it is well
known, that Polk county has some ot
the finest beds of this mineral in the
world. Wc learn that recently there
1 »• been discovered, mar Van W «rt, an
iucxaustible bed of grindstone, which
is pronounced, by competent judges, e
qual to the best grit from Nova Scotia.
The development of this quarry wili
•add naturally to the freight cf the road.
We say nothing about the travel over
the road, or of the return freight.
A minute investigation of the figures
in the above calculation, will convince
any one, of good judgment, in such mat
ters that the road, if it should cost the
lull amount of the capital stock author
ized by the charter, would, in all prob
ability, pay annual dividend of from 121
to 15 per cent, and would be equal, il
not superior, to those of any rail-road
iu the country. But it is well known
that the road will not cost the hall of
the amount of authorized capital.
But will the road be built ? Certain
ly jt will if t !Try one interested in it
will do his whole duty. The shares
are pul at twenty live dollars, and any
school boy might take at least one. —
The President ol the comprny is a
practical man and will be able to work
into scrip any thing that can be used
on the road. Mr. Marshall also is an
energetic Agent, and aided as he will
be by the President, the Secretary and
the Directors of the company in getting
up the stock, we have hopes of 6oon
seeing the work begun.

The Test-Oath Decision off (lie j
Supreme Com?-Its Rearing
on the Enfranchisementttill. j
As the coin pas* l-j the mariner, so is
the Supreme Court of the United Slates ;
the sure guide to the people upon the 1
cardinal questions of ris»lit. Three
weeks ago that tribunal pronounced a
decision which lias been well rharac- t
tertzed as anew declaration of rights, i
1»v it that palladium of personal liber- j
tv, trial by jury, was rescued Irom its j
enemies, and restored to its proper 1
place in the temple of justice. Here- i
alter the citizen will be sucure in his '
life, liberty, and property Irom the ar-i
horary power of military commissions. ,
Martial law, with its attendant horrors, i
can find no shelter or protection under ]
the Constitution ot the United States. '
Bat a still more odious system of
tvrannv than that id military commis
sions had been imposed upon the peo
ple of the United Slate* by the Con
gressional test oath of July, 18GG, and
upon the people of Maryland and ol
Mis ouri by their respective State con
stitutions. These cunningly devised
pro- i ions excluded men from bolding
offices of honor, profit, or trust, or from
practicing as attorneys at law, from
exercising the offices of preacher or
teacher, and front the right of voting
unless they purged their conscience bv
most searchiag oaths, not only in regard
to acts previously denounced by the
laws ol the laud as criminal, hut for
the ultt ranee of their opinions and
sympathies, making no distinction be
l>vi e i ti e spontaneous eflections of the
heart and tiiose deliberate acts of mal
ignitv and opposition to the known
law which are alone recognized by
civilized nations as proper subjects for
punishment. Had the vitality of such
provisions been recognized by the
Supreme Court, there would praclio; i r
have been little relief to the public by
the declaration that the citizen was
entitled to a trial by jury.
The decision denounced on Monday
upon the validity of these test oaths is
a complete and searching exposition of
their enormity. They are* town to be
sweeping bills of pains and penalties,
bills of attainder in their most compre
hensive form, cx post facto laws within
the plain prohibition of the Constitu
tion of the United States, and bad
iiiniust'ons of most cruel penal laws
enacted in England in the reign of
Henry VIII, William 111 and George
111. No well-informed man could
doubt, what the court so explicitly as
serts, that any law which, whether
through the subterfuge of an expurga
tory oath or the more open form ol trial
and conviction and sentence, disquali
fies or deprives a man of rights for past
conduct, as a punishment, and cannot
be otherw *o defined; and as .•uli.
comes expressly within the prohibition
of the constitution against any Stale
passing any bill of attilnder or expost
facto law. There can be no evasion ol
the constitution by the way in which
t‘ e power is exr rcised* No matter wheth
er it he in lot in of a provision ia a State
constitution disqualifying a party from
lidding offiiee or in an act of the
Legislature, whether efiected by an
expuig lory c>; ill or by sentence of a
court, the consequence is the same, the
v of tion o'justice equally flagrant, the
invasion ol the civil right of a citizen
equally palpable and indefensible. •
Moreovt r a iy expurg; t >ry oath which
operates substantially as a means of
punishment is a violation of tiie con
stitutional provision securing to every
man the right of trial by jury.
The decision of the Supreme Court
happens most opportunely. It covers
precisely the disqualifying clauses in
the constitution of our own Slate, which
have operated so oppressively and tin
justlv upon our people. Whatever
’ doubts any member of the Legislature
of Maryland may have entertained
about the propriety or expediency of
patsing the btil to restore the rights of
citizens disqualified from voting and
holding office by the terms of the fourth
section of the first article of the con
stitution, all his doubts must now be
dissipated by this opinion. Nay, More:
as every member ol the Legislature has
sworn to support the constitution of
the United Slates, and the opinion in
question shows beyond cavil that the
disqualifying clauses of our State
constitution are directly in conflict with
the constitution of the United States,
fidelity to that oath will require hint to
vote for the act of enfranchisement. It
would be a strange spectacle if, after
this adjudication, any one should seri
riouslv undertake to defend the policy
or the legality of provisions which were
adopt ’d by men in the he. t of passion,
amid the excitements of war, and which
now, after two exhaustive arguments
by the most eminent counsel in the
land, and alter a whole year of anxious
deliberation, with the full conscious
ness of their responsibility, the Supreme
Court lias so emphatically condemned,
and condemned alike in the States and
in the Federal government. There
can he no qualification or restriction
upon rights which 'ie at the foundation
of those liberties and privileges which
were vindicated one for all by the
American revolution, and only pro
claimed for greater certainly in the
original State constitutions and in the
Federal bond of Union. It this is and
ought to he indissoluble, the rights it j
was meant to secure should be sacr*d ,
from every stain. Nor should so fla-j
grant ;*u invasion ol the privileges of j
citizens be suffered to remain uncon-;
detuned by their representatives one
hour after the Supreme Court lias pro
nounced against ;ts validity. — Haiti'

Important Decision off the
High Court oOlisslssfppl.
CONFEDERATE HONEY ANl> STATE TRF.Aft
t HY NOTES VALID AS A CONSIDERATION
DVKINO THE WAR.
We give below the following abstract
or conclusion of the opinion ot ihe High
Court m the case oi J. and T. Green
vs. J. N. Slier. The opinion of the
court was delivered by Chief Justice
Handy, and il will be seen sustains the
judgement of the Circvit Court ot
Hinds county affirming the legality ol
executory contracts where Confederate
notes, cotton money and Stale Treasu
ry notes was the consideration. The
following extract will indicate its pur
port :
“In coming to this conclusion we
cannot disregard tlie fact that a vast
amount of the rights and property id
our citizens depends on contracts
founded on considerations like that ot
the case before us; nor can we over
look the circumstances under which
tu h contracts were made. The eti--
rency on which they were founded,
was, for upwards of forty years, almost
exclusively the circulating medium ol
the country—issued by Governments
having complete power over the peo
ple, and exercising undisturbed politi
cal functions. It was the representa
tive of their rights and properly in all
pecuniary transactions of a private
character, and was at the lime, valua
ble and convertible into gold or silver
coin to a considerable value. It an
swer' and all the purposes of a circulating
medium among the people and immense
interests were acquired by means of it,
under circumstances of the greatest
good faith by both parties, and of large
profit to the parties who receive it ;
contracts of tl.c highest obligation v* e
entered into, in consideration of it, and
by it, food and clothing and other ah
solute necessaries were obtained. —
Under such circumstances, to hold that
such contracts were illegal and void,
and that the parties acquired no legal
rights uml r :b m, would he alike co.-
trary to settled rules of law and to
sound public policy.
“The next objection raised to the
rulings of the Court is that the Missis
sippi Treasury notes were bills of creel
it, and void under section 10, article 1
if t»*e Csnst t ton ofthe United States,
and, to the extent of the amount ol
them involved in this case that they
could not constitute a lawful consider
ation for the contract sued on. This
objection is based on the authority of
Craig vs. Peters.
“If it be conceded that, at tbe time
these notes were issued, the Constitu
ion of the United States was in actual
force in this State, and that the powers
of this State were governed by it, in
the peculiar circumstances of its con
dition at the time, yet it is clear that
these notes are not embraced within
the prohibitation of that Constitution.
“ I ley were issued uiuh r the ordi
nance of the State Convention of 26th
Jnnruary, 1861, which authorized them
to b ■ is u and solely on a loan of money
to the State, and as evidence to the
indi idual of the indebtedness of the
State for the loan* They were not
authorized to be issued as a circulating
medium, and that was not the policy
contemplated by the measure. That
they were used among the people in
part for that purpose, alter they were
issued, is true; but it is manifest from
the ordinance that such was not the
purpose for which they were author
ize i. They were not intended to be
“emitted” as currency, but were given
out to persons who loaned money to
the State : und that is expressly deci
ded. in the case of Craig vs. the State
ot Missouri, not to he within the pro
h btion of the Constitution. It is there
held that a contract executed by a State
by which slic binds herself to pay
money at a future day for services
actually rendered, or for money bor
rowed for present use, is not a bill of
credit within the meaning of the Con
stitution. 4 Peters. And il is clear that
these notes were authorized to be is
s ted for money issued by the State for
pr §int use, and for no other purpose.”
A question appears to have been
raised in the court below as to the va
lidity ol the notes referred to as “cotton
money,” issued by this State, and as
t» the right and power of the State to
issue them. But the question has been
waived by the counsel lor the plaintiffs
in error here; and nothing we have
* id above is to be considered as an
intimation of an opinion on that
point.
