More About tlie Called Meeting.
Editor Times Jocrnu- I see in

seventy-five persons present at
the meeting, and at a liberal esti
mate perhaps thirty voted for the
1 resolution ei-dit (bv actual count)
resomtion, eyii t oj .itiuai oudi;
against it.and the balance not vot
ing at all. This was “virtually
unanimous,'’ about like somebody
was nominated for chairman—
“over the left.
Again, these words occur In the
^solution adopted at the meet
a “*\ ot J°' irse ’ b,ml ; f
!ea&t ou g llt to bjnd ’ a11 " ho as
sisted in carrying it . “unan
so
imously” “We are determined
to do everything in our power to
maintain the supremacy of tlie
law.” You are! Well, when are
you going to commence? Some of
you have promised to do this very
thing before, but you not only
didn’t do everything in your
“power to maintain (he suprem¬
acy <# the law," but if you have
ever done anything at all it is
more than has appeared on the
surface. Talk is cheap, and it is
a very easy matter to write resolu¬
tions and adopt them “unan
mously’’ by a vote of twenty-five
or thirty out of seventy-five or a
hundred voters, but your talk
heretofore has not amounted to
anything.
Now, if you are going to catch
the fellows who tore up the jury
box and the ballot box, and the
fellow who T cot the indictments
well ,, as .,. suppress s „ nn v -; S Lie t fie “blind i t-m-s’’
whv go ahead and do it. You
have promised to do “everythin*
in vour power to maintain the su .

i ,ion’t cni ch these lawbreakers you
ought at least to trv. You ought

* r °ni, I don’t know where, unless
it comes from tHe “Mutual Admi
rati<m Siieic-ty,'’ and by the author
,f y ot the same, whatever that
| power is. But if you don't try; if
you allow your “powers” to lay in
its present normal state, like it
has since the meeting adjourned,
let me beg you in the interest of
truth not to resolute so unani
mously next time, but leave these
matters to the courts and the
properly accredited ollicers of this
county, where they properly be¬
long. I am, very truly,

^ ffengthen the the bo uls of

but it will demonstrate to these

is more remunerative in the south
than the north, and we firmly be
“ ev0 t!ie ultimate result of this ex
eursion will be the investment ol
01 ' 10 mout 7 m Georgia lands and
removal of 1 farmers from
Ohio to Georgia. Such a removal
of skilled farmer from Ohio to
Georgia cannot fail to be a great
benefit to Georgia. They will take
south with them labor-saving ma
chinery, which is not used as much
in the south as it ought to be.
Shey will lake with them, too,
new ideas and new methods.
These ideas and methods will not
prove to be suited always to the
conditions in Georgia, but hv ad
apting them to the Georgia ideas
and methods they will beget im
provements beneficial to both
new comers and to 1 lie Georgia
farmers.
Recent statistics regarding farm
ing in Ohjo indicate that moitga
ges are a very general crop, which
the farmers cannot get rid of,
while in Georgia the last three
years have seen the crop of mort
gages mercilessly cut down. This
fact in itself wifi entice many
Ohio homes to be transplanted to
Georgia soil. We hope to see
moresuehsens.b , e moves ns was

Every such move wnt more than
pay for itself in beneficial Jesuits

^fter a short conferenc it was de
,.j det i that the government flag
should not wave in Georgia.
Col. Henry li. Jackson was de
^patched with a note to Captain
Arnold Elzey, commanding arse
nab.
The note recited that Georgia
had decided to govern herself.
While the governor desired,"!o
cultsvate amicable relations with
the United States government'’ he
proposed to take charge of the ar
senal himself,
Captain Elzey was • told that he
must withdraw his troops from
the state and give up the arsenal.
He peremptorily refused to snr
render. The military of Augusta
were ordered out. The Clinch Ki
lies. Oglethorpe Infantry, Irish
Volunteers, Montgomery Guards,
Washington Artillery, Richmond
Hussars, minute men, companies
A and B soon got in fighting trim.
Robert Y. Hanes was given charge
0 f one thousand men.
Captain Elzey didn't know what
fear was. His hundred trained
soldiers were strongly barricaded
and ha had provisions and amrnu
nition that would last a year.
He had plenty of cannon and
pile- of cannUter and grape, and
was just in shooting distance of
Bugusta. He was in communica
tion with the authorities at Wash

An Evidence of Prosperity.
A sure evidence that our far¬
mers are in a prosperous condition
and that our county is improving
very rapidly is shown trom the
quantity of brick and lime that is
being used. It is almost impossi¬

the high prices that an-being paid.
An Error.
In last week's issue a notice of

should have been Nov. 29th. A
typographical error was the cause.
We regret the error, but such
things will occur among the most
