EDITORIAL CORKESI’OXREXCE. 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. More anon. A. G. MrC. [The above letter should have been in last week’s issue, but owing to some ir regularity of the mail was not received until after the paper was published.] 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. 1 KII F MENTION. Congress hns commenced its labors.

Wnrrenton ('Upper : We hold that our State University has no claims upon mir people unless she deserves it.
