House of Rkphekentativks, \
Atlanta, Ga., Nov. JO, IS7B. (
PkAB Sun: Georgia's assembled law
ninkers the past week have been fairly
down t,o business. All seem to appreciate
the labors that lin before the body and
hence a prevailing despnsition to press for
ward the work with all possible dispatch.
But iiotwilhstand tho diligence and faithful
efforts of the body, the law-making ma
chinery grind's out slowly. \ great deal
of business lias been introduced, and a
great deal more to be introduced, and yet
many subjects of legislation required bv
our <'(institution remain untouched. It is
estimated that, with all reasonable speed,
it will take at least a session of seven!y
--lU-c days to perform the necessary legisla
tion.
The ViU to advertise for at laws, 'm which
onr people Teel no Uitiltrut, has at last been
passed In both Mouses, and awaits Die
Governor's approval to become a law. The
bill provides tlint the caption of the local
act shall lie published one time, thirty
days before being introduced, in the news
paper where the Sheriff".; advertising is
done, except in those counties where no
newspaper is published, and then in any
paper having a circulation in the County.
A bill to prohibit the sale, distribution,
jir furnishing intoxicating liquors on elec
tion days within two miles of election pre
cincts passed the House, but a motion to
reconsider prevailed, and the bill rests now
in that shape. This is a bill the policy of
which was discussed and determined by the
Constitutional Convention. A provision
in the New Constitution makes it the duty
of the Legislature to pass such a bill.
\ big tight is anticipated in regard to
abolishing all the drains on the public
treasury in the shape of bureaus, Ac. A
p ise disposition pervades the Gftncni! As
sembly to stop all the small leaks in the
Treasury. The friends of reform lost the
bill to reduce the judicial circuits, which
would have saved a few thousand dollars
yearly to onr tax-burdened people, and
(hey propose to continue the fight on the
same line, even if a llogoenrnological Bu
reau should have to totter and full. The
truth is. when we consider the thousand
avenues for the expenditure of the public
monies, and the hundreds of fat places that
have to be sustained by the toil and sweat
of the laboring masses, who beneath the
galling fetters of oppression are sending up
the cry foi relief from all quarters, we
should not bo at all surprised at the pre
prevailicg state of things, and that some
effort will lie made on the part of the Leg
islature to bring the relief. The very apt
interrogatory with reference to them all is.
" why cumbereth they the ground and
the true solution doubtless will be. "let
them be hewn down and east into the lire."
The question of an early adjournment is
being agitated. The General Assembly
will likely adjourn somewhere about the
10th or loth of December to meet again
either in January or July to finish its la
bors. Quite a diversity of opinion prevails
ns to the time for reassembling.
Atlanta has been quite lively the past
week. The Pharmaceutical Association
lias been in session, theatrical troupes. Dr.
Carver shooting glass balls, spiritual wo
men. Ac. The most arrant humbug that
ever wove shoe leather could come to At
lanta. with a little Jack-with-a-lantern
show, and have a crowded house. People
do love to support and patronize humbugs.
Louise Pomeroy will give an entertainment
the present week, also John T. Raymond,
and the unusual business activity that now
•prevails will doubtless lie kept up until
after the Christmas holidavs,
Mr. Green, of Madison, hns introduced
a bill providing for the keeping open ns
much as ten feet of the main current of all
livers for the free passage of fish. This
bill ought to commend itself to all lovers
of the tinny tribe. Mr. Green is always
at his post, and will certainly look after
the interests of bis people.

December Gth.
De.VR Sun : Since onr last the General
Assembly lias been pursuing the even
tenor of its way. Some highly important
measures have been under consideration in
committee rooms, and even found their
way into the Legislative arena for final ac
tion. The most prominent is a bill to nu
tharize the issuing of five hundred thou
sand four per cunt, bonds, for the redenqv-
lion of Staiekonds fulling due iluring the
years 1879, 1880 anti ISSI. This bill lias
passed the House by an overwhelming ma
jority. These nre coupon bonds, and are
thus contra-distinguished from hills of
credit in order to avoid the prohibition of
the Constitution of the I nited Stales,
which precludes any State from issuing
money or hills of credit. It is claimed
that while the issuing of these bbnds is
constitutional, the hill proposes that they
lie of small denominations, to-wit : from
live lo one hundred dollars and of the size
and shape of money. Being of such char
acter they will he accessible to the masses
of the people: will he a good and safe in
voaUueiit for those earnings, un.i will, in
line, answer all the purposes of money and
will proven very elhcient antidote for our
greatly contracted volume of currency.
The hill further provides that the bonds
shall not lie disposed of for less than their
par value, and the proceeds shall lie applied
to no other purpose than the redemption
of the aforesaid outstanding bonds. IV e
are inclined to believe the Senate will also
pass the measure.
A hill totnnke verbal slander indictable
reached its way into 'he House and Senate
and was defeated in both branches. The
main ground on account of which the
men nre was defeated, w its because it was
(bought that the bill wound tend largely to
lill the courts with unnecessary litigation.
A hill to authorize judgments to lie ren
dered at the !lrst term of the Court in all
cases where no issuable delVn -e was filed
on oath, was voted down in the House by
a large majority.
A bill pro\ ding for the setting apart and
valuation of homestead under the New
Constitution, Ims passed the Senate. It
passed the .Senate just as reported by the
•Judiciary Committee, and will likely go
through the House without much dilliculty.
The House is now at work on the appro
priation bill. A considerable question
arose on the matter of clerical expenses.
Quite n number contending that the sev
enty dollars should not defray the expenses
of the clerks of standing committees. The
House, however, stood squarely by the
Constitution on toe point and requires the
seventy dollars per day to defray all ex
pense... the expenses of standing commit
tees included. There arc quite a number
of constructionists on nearly every ques
tion that arise that looks toward a saving
in the public expenditures w hose views, il
adopted would render those admirable
safeguards that have hern thrown around
the public treasury perfectly nugatory.
(In all such questions we believe the policy
should he to stand on the side of economy
m the expenses of the government, forced
constructions and the cry of false economy
to the contrary notwithstanding.
We think the bill to appropriate the pub
lic property at Millcdgcville for the estab
lishment of a College will fail for constitu
tional reasons, if no.other. The llojisc
has once had under consideration the hill
in committee of the whole, 'and the general
tone seemed to be against it.. i
The two Houses have passed a resolu
tion taking a recess from Friday the tilth
instant to the lirst Wednesday in duly
next. It was thought that both the indi
vidual interests as well as those of the
public would be better subserved by that
course. ,
General Lucius and. Gartrell entertained
at hi* hospitable residence quite a number
of bin I’riewD. nwnnbcVH of th Guileful
Assembly, on Tuesday evening Igst. \\’.c
i l,m\ tin- honor to \e present, and inns* say
that tl.o General’s urbane, social hearing
is only equalled by the charming qualities
of his accomplished lady. Genera! Gar
troll once ably served the Northern Circuit
as .Solicitor-General and has many warm
friends in*that Circuit. He now enjoys
quite an extended reputation us nn able
and successful criminal lawyer, and has a
host of friends all over the State, who
would gladly see him elevated to Guber
natorial honors.
Hastily, A. G. McC.
LOJ THE POOR PRINTER t
In a very sensible editorial on the Local
Law Bill as it passed the House, in rela
tion to regulation for printing, the Albany
AVic.ii says :
“ 11 allow s only one-third the price of
regular commercial advertising. This wo
consider unjust, cutthroat business. No
business in this country yields so little
profit to the required servico and money
invested ; and no other branch of industry
does more to buildup the interests of the
State. But fools have never discovered
this fact, and perhaps never will.”
We agree with the A’cte.v in every way in
this matter. What more right has the
Legislature to jew the printer below regu
lar and fair rates than it has to put down
the price of dry goods, or butter, or the
wages of blacksmiths or furniture dealers ?
W e believe in economy, lint we do not be
lieve in the Legislature passing laws that
will trim the already small loaf that rests
upon the poor newspaper man's table.
And we believe every respectable paper in
the State will stand with the A Vies in re
fusing to publish at such unjust rates. We
are against printing rings, or any other
ring, where tiie finances of the State are
squandered, but wo believe the State
should pay a fair price for value received,
just as any indi\ideal has to do. While
the Legislature is reducing prices, we hope
it will put down the rates of legislation
at a low figure—say a dollar a day.
