GOLDSMITH DECITIZEJtIZED.
The Last Day of the Great Trial—An Effort
Mitigate the Penalty Defeated—The Vote
of Condemnation Taken Amid the rail
ing Shadows of the Night.
Atlanta Constitution.
It is doubtful if the present generation
of Georgians ever looked upon a more
impressive scene titan was exhibited in
tiie senate chamber on yesterday.
The tedium of the roll called on the
articles of impeachment had passed and
the senate had met for the purpose ot
passing sentence on the comptroller
general of Georgia. The galleries were
packed, and even the lobbies of the sen
ate, usually sacred from the intrusion of
the crowd, under the watchful eye and
unpersuadable sternness of Lem Allred
were so tilled that there was barely
standing room. The senators were
in their seats, the craped and laurelled
desk of the dead Clements being one of
the three vacant ones. Chiet Justice
Warner sat in the president’s chair, his
white expressive face giving no more
sign of what emotions moved beneath
its surface than if it had been sculped in
marble. The whisper of speculation
that ran about the chamber was sub
dued, decorous, and it was evident that
the spectators were expecting some sol
emn and impressive work.
IX TIIK FOREGROUND OF TIIE DESKS
sat the comptroller-general. To his
right and left sat Messrs. Hopkins and
Henry Jackson. To the rear of Mr.
Jackson sat Colonel Candler and
and Mr. Thompson; these gen
tlemen having been his counsel. A lit
tle 'in front sat Mr. Goldsmith, the father
of the comptroller, gray-haired, sorrow
ful, but devoted. Three of the comp
troller’s brothers sat to the rear watch
ing the proceedings with the keenest in
terest. Mr. Hinton P. Wright sat near
the president’s desk. The attitude and
demeanor of the comptroller during the
terrible strain imposed upon him was
commendable. He was deathly pale,
but tranquil and quiet. lie was dress
ed with scrupulous neatness, and wore a
rosebud on his coat lapel. He sat most
of the time with His right hand resting on
the top of his head slowly closing and
opening his white fingers and running
them through his hair. At other times
he sat with the head of his walking-cane
pressed against his cheek under his right
eye, leaning his head upon it slightly.
When Senator Cummings alluded to the
“amiability that had made him loveable
in private life, but had been a snare to
him in official life,” and to the gallantry
with which he “bared his bosom to the
storm of battle in defense of the state,”
and proeeded to pay an eloquent, touch
ing tribute to his worth as a soldier and
civilian, he was evidently affected. lie
bended his head forward until his face
was hidden from view, and remained so
for some time. It was noticed that
Major Cumming’s own eyes were mois
tened as he closed his speech, showing
the deep feeling that gave it such thrill
ing effect. When Mr. Preston made his
impassioned appeal to the senate, Mr.
Goldsmith leaned forward and sat bolt
upright. Only once*he showed signs of
annoyance and that was when Mr. Hol
combe, with rather poor taste it must be
confessed, alluded to a conversation he
had with comptroller—“shook like a
leaf.” At this he turned to Captain
Jackson and made'some earnest remark.
He laughed heartily at someof the points
scored by Senator Hudson.
THE RUN OF THE DEBATE.
The debate of course hinged upon the
question as fo whether there should be
simple removal or removal with dis
qualification. Those who favored sim
ple removal had the best of the debate
from the start, although Mr. Harrison
made a very strong and pointed opening
speech for the extreme penalty. Major
Cumming’s speech was a model of its
kind —impartial, calm and decorous as
became the occasion and yet thrilled all
through and through with pathos and
nervous with repressed power. Colonel
McDaniel argued the law of the case
with the close and accurate energy for
which he is famous, making probably,
the ablest speech ot the day, and Mr.
Preston’s earnest appeal rang through the
senate chamber like the notes of a bugle
and showed that the young senator has
the very highest attribute of oratory.
There were scores of people crying as he
spoke—it carried off the palm for elo
quence. Senator Iludion won the only
applause of the day when he said pas
sionately, in reply to a question. “Yes,
God Almighty found David thrice guilty,
but to-day David is in Heaven among the
blest.” The point made by Mr. Bryan
that the law itself disqualified the comp
troller from ever holding an office after
he had been removed for malfeasance,
created a ripple of excitement and was
en lorsed by many persons who were
listening to the debate and who were
skilleU hi the law. For disqualification
Mr. Bower made a straightforward and
able speech in which he said that though
mercy was sweet and sublime, there was
a higher and grander attribute that was
justice. He argued that tiie law was
positive to his mind upon the point of
disqualification, and read the law to stis
taiu his position. The debate was open
ed, as we have said, by Senator Harri
son in one of the strongest speeches of the
dav. Mr. Holcombe followed Major
Cummings in an earnest and rugged
speech, in which lie insisted that tiie ex
treme penalty should be put upon Mr.
Goldsmith. lie reviewed the history
of the state from the days of reconstruc
tion on, and heid that corruption ruled
supreme in everything. He was severe
upon Mr. Goldsmith because the latter
had not thrown open the records of his
office to its inspection. Senator Clarke
opposed the substitute in a lengthy and
logical speech, and Mr. Clements in a
practical level-headed speeen that proved
effective. It was plain, but strong to
the point. Mr. Boyd in a short but
pertinent speech opposed the passage of
the disqualifying clause, and the debate
closed with a fervid speech from Mr,
Cummings and a short rejoinder from
Senator Bower.
THE VOTE AND THE RESULT.
Tt was almost dark in tiie senate when
tiie debate was finished. The gleams
of dying sun were rippling on tiie
walls, of the scene. An attempt was made
and the twilight shadows hung
to put off' the vote, hut it was prompt
ly ordered, and was brought on without
delay. The roll-call opened in a
death-like silence. By one of the ca
prices of voting of the first six votes five
were for the substitute, but after that it
was rapidly beaten. Before tiie roll
was half through with it was plain that
the substitute was gone. At the close
of the vote a thrill of sympathy ran
through the whole senate and the galler
ies. Every eye was instinctively turn
ed to the pale slight figure sitting in the
shadows and with the deeper shadows
gathering about it. It betrayed no
signs of emotion. The same pow
er that had enabled it to confront the
rank after rank of senators that had arisen
tiie day before and voted “guilty,” un
til the very ear of the senate was weari
ed with the sound sustained him through
this dreadful roll-call. He started by
keeping a tally-sheet, but soon
stopped, lifted bis face, implor
ingly it seemed, to the senate. But the
pitiless vote went on. At length it
closed. The chief-justice then put the
main question. The call on this pro
ceeded without incident until Mr.
Head’s name was reached. That gentle
man arose and stated that he did not be
lieve Mr. Goldsmith deserved such pun
ishment and he could not vote for it.
But the friends of the substitute had de-H
terinined to make no further fight, anilH
Head and Preston were the only senators I
that voted against it. At the close ofß
the call adjournment was ordered, and I
the act of impeachment was over. 5
A more solemn effect was never pro-1
duced by legislative act. The vastl
crowd arose in perfect silence. It seem-■
ed chilled and benumbed. The sena-B
tors closed their desks and put on tlieirM
hats without a word to each other. Ev-H
ery man and woman seemed thrilled ■
with the dead spirit of the occasion*
Away in the lower corner of the chamber
leaning upon the arm of an old gray-B
haired man, a slight stooping figure walk-B
ed slowly[out of the aisle into the presi-B
dent’s room. Wash Goldsmith! theß
brave soldier, the wise and patriotic leg-B
lator, the lovable, amiable man—pale,■
trembling, and bending forward, stripped!
of bis citizenship, but leaning on theß
arm of his father, expelled from office by!
the senate, but drawn tenderly to the oldl
heart that had known him from his boy-1
hood, and that in the face of all circutn-l
stance, stood up to say that it still loved I
and trusted him. And together, father!
and son, they passed through the shad-1
ows out into the world. May God whose I
judgment is wise above all human esti-l
mate, and whose mercy endureth forev-|
er, follow them both, to correct all error, if I
error has been committed, or to chasten I
justice, if only justice has been dealt to I
them. I
We presume that sentence will be pro-1
nounced to-day at 10 o’clock. Mr. Gold-1
smith was met at the side entrance of the!
hall by hundreds of friends, who ex-|
pressed their utmost confidence in his in-l
tegrity and their sympathy in his misfor-l
tunes. The impression was simply uni-1
yersal that he had been tricked and mis-1
led, and that his purposes had not been!
wrong.
TIIE VOTE ON THE ARTICLES.
We did not give the “yeas and nays”,
on the vote on the seventeen articles of
impeachment, as it would have taken up
too much space, and besides there was no
general line drawn by which the votes
were divided. Each senator voted just
as his own opinion dictated, and there
were so-me curious but no definite divis
ions. The only two senators, we believe,
who voted guilty on every charge were
Messrs. Holcombe and Tison, of the 4th.
Messrs. Bower voted guilty on most of
the charges, but on one call where there
was only one vote of “not guilty” that
vote was Senator Bower’s. Messrs.
Grantland, Boyd, Hamilton, of the 14th,
Drake, Staten, Holton, Grimes and Rus
sell voted guilt} 7 on'the most of the arti
cles, but there was no tendency estab
lished. There was hardly any two vo
ters that had the same support, except
where all voted guilty, as two or three
articles. The vote showed that the sena
tors had carefully weighed the matter in
their own minds, and that each man vo
ted as lie thought Ills duty dictated. Xo
semblance of any clique or fractional di
vision could have been traced through
the votes.
MEDICINE CO.
LOST!
It is an established fact that Quinine or Cin
clionidia will stop Chills, and for this purpose
there is no better remedy. But it is also an es
tablished fact that they do not remove tiie cause
that produces the Chills. For if they did, the
Chills would not return on the 7tli, 14th, 21st, or
2Stl day. Then is it not money LOST to attempt
to permanently cure the Chills with Quinine or
Cinclionidia, when they do not remove the cause
from the system that produces them? For until
the cause is removed, the Chills will return. The
FERRINE
Is warranted to remove every cause from the
system that produces the Chills, and if it fails to
do this you will sustain no loss, for every drug
gist is authorized to guarantee a permanent cure
in every ease, no matter of how long standing
and will refund the money if the Chills return
after you are through taking. Positively no cure,
no pay. Try it and be convinced. It contains
no poison, and is perfectly tastelesss and a per
manent cure guaranteed in all cases.

ELECTRICITY !
I ELECTRICITY I
Possesses the greatest power known to man, once
but little understood and for all time greatly
feared, is now made useful and subservient
to man.
Tthenew METHOD I 7'
I Of protection against lightning, on the theory
and patent of J. C. CHAMBERS, which he has
recently discovered, is rapidly taking the place
of the old rod.
I THE OLD PLAN I
lOf rodding buildings—connecting the rod with
[the earth—has been proven unsafe, and even
[dangerous. The new method places the rod and
[points on the roof of the lionse, much after the
| old style, with Chambers’ Improved Insulators,
[with no rod running down the side of the house
[to the earth.
T RODS AND POINTS I "
Put up ou Chambers’ theory, operate as active
agents facilitating the natural laws of electrici
[ ty by a continuous discharge or throwing off the
negative electricity, thereby neutralizing the
positive in the atmosphere above, and particu
larly so during a heavy thunder storm, thus re
pelling a stroke instead of inviting it. Ia the
event these points should not [throw off the
negative fast enough and a stroke should take
place at one of these points, it simply runs oft’ at
the other points and is disseminated in the at
mosphere above where it belongs.
I CHAMBERS’ NEW METHOD T~
Has been examined and thoroughly tested by
scientific men, and pronounced to be the only
correct principle for protection.
We have accepted an agency, and are now
ready to put up rods on the plan of the new
method. Any one wishing to see this theory
demonstrated, can do so by calling at our store,
where we will take pleasure in exhibiting the
many advantages it has over the old plan.
