A CORRECT VIEW.
Relow we ffive an editorial from our aide
ennteinporsiry, the Atlanta Constitution,
which clearly sets forth the work of the
Legislature just closed. Allusion is also
made to some important measures that will
engage that body when it reconvenes next
July. Our contemporary knows whereof
it speaks, and hence differs very widely
from a great many of the random editorials
that have appeared in some of the news
paper journals since the adjournment of
the (ieneral Assembly. It is a very easy
task to indulge in senseless carpings by
those who know nothing of the care, study
und cautious deliberation that should he
brought to bear in legislating so ns to sub
serve and promote the public interests of
a great State like (ienrgin. A little expe
rience in such matters would doubtless
change the tone of a great many, whose
greatest fort seems to he that of fault-find
ing.
•• In reviewing the whole session of thir
tv-seven working days we sec that while
the Legislature left over until' July many
important matters, yet it performed a good
ly lot of business. One of the most ini
fmrtant hills passed was the Garrard bond
iill. to provide for the issue of go!11.001 in
four per cent. State bonds in denominations
from $5 to slll. The hill will greatly in
crease the volume of circulation in the
State, and will reduce the interest on our
State debt just §20,000 a vear. The home
stead hill was also perfected most satis
factorily. A bill to provide for the man
ner in which cities may compromise
their bonded debt was one of the most im
portant acts of the session. The new Ju
ry hill is very satisfactory. The tax act
shows a considerable diminution of the
burdens of the people. A bill changing
the time of the superior courts of numer
ous counties. was also one of the most im
portant measures passed. A great many
hills of importance were passed, but a full
catalogue of them is not practicable in a
brief summary.
For tin* July session the Legislature has
left a number of weighty matters which
must then lie finally determined. The
great question of regulating freight ami
passenger rates of railroads under the new
constitution will come up for a fnll and
final discussion. The Moffett Ill'll Punch
hill will he heartily pressed The ques
tion of the -ale or lease of the Macon anti
Brunswick railroad will also be determin
ed. There will be a tight lo abolish the
agricultural department, and probably a
strong effort to revive the geological bti
r an. The wi’d land office and all its ope
rations will come up for a thorough review.
Legislation on the line suggested hv the
recent investigation is sure to be bad. as
both reports of the committee recommend
the passage of laws strictly forbidding the
taking of fees by department officials. The
dog law will also he discussed. The bill
to reduce fees of tax collectors and receiv
ers will likewise come up in July. These
are merely some of the principal questions
awaiting the action of the body in July.
There will tie others of minor importance.
1 aside* a Hood of lorn' and special tolls.
The Legislature lias done well under the
circumstances. No preceding assembly
1 ns been surrounded hv such difficulties.
These have been met most successfully by
the Senate and House.
In both bodies are ninny good mon—men
of ability—who are true to the best inter
ests of the State. We may look for an in
teresting srssjon in Jnlv. and rnav he sure
, that the welfare of the State will he in the
keeping of wisdom, justice and moderation.
GEOLOGICAL REHEAT.
Tim recent Legislature declined to pass
a hill continuing the tiooloirccal Murean
fire years longer. For the Inst five years
the sum of ten thousand dollars has been
rinnually paid out of the public* treasury
for the urpose of sustaining this unneces
sary *• luxury.” and the General Assem
bly. we think, very properly concluded
that it was time for the matter to stop.
A desperate effort was made to pass the
hill introduced to continue the Bureau five
years longer, hut the friends of reform
stood solid against it. The appropriation
clause to pay fifteen hundred dollars annu
jillv to run a Board of Health, was also
• iefeated. Onr section lias received no ben
efit whatever from these institutions, hut
our people have been taxed to support
tuem. and we believe will shed no tears
over their demise.
Both the Senators from South Carolina
are one-loggud men. Two legs are better
than none. * '
AMENDE HONOR A RLE.
In our issue of December 4th, in com
menting upon the completion of tiie labors
of the Investigating toinmittee upon the
, indorsement of the N. E. Ronds hy the
i'iovernor. under the caption " (iorernor
' I'olquitt Right Side ! p." wc mentioned
that we had learned that Gov. Colquitt's
motives were completely vindicated, tint
used language reflecting very severely upon
Mr. .1. W. Murphy, the Clerk of the
Treasury. Those remarks were entirely
predicated upon the current rumors in the
newspapers, from which wo were led to in
fer that Mr. Murphy had sought and ob
tained a bribe to induce the tiovemor to
indorse these bonds. Since then we have
rend tlte ma jority report of the Committee,
w hich comply tely exonerates Mr. Murphy
iof any illegal conduct or corrupt practices
in the matter. This being the ca*e. we
feel it to l*e tine both to Mr. Murphy nnd
ourselves to retract so much of the aforc
>nid editorial as referred to him. as being
altogether unmerited ami misnstamcd by
the facts as have since been developed by
the Investigating Committee. At the
same time we must say that, in our opin
ion. Mr. Murphy acted indiscreetly in the
matter, occupying the position he did. and
wc think the General Assembly should
enact a law that will preterit the recur
rence of such doubtful practices. Of course
we could not have been actuated by malice
or any sinister motive, as we were totally
unacquainted with the gentleman. Relow
we give so much of the majority report
as relates to Mr. Murphy’s connection
with the above matter :
•• In investigating the motives and con
duct of the Governor, the committee have
found it necessary to examine into the con
duct of Mr. John \V. Murphy, a clerk in
the treasury department of the State, and
it is the opinion of this committee that Mr.
Murphy was not guilty of any illegal con
duct or corrupt practices in tiie matter of
the indorsement of the bonds of the North
eastern railroad company.”
BLARNEY.
*• The election of a libera! and patriotic
Southern citizen to the Presidency would,
perhaps, do more to harmonize and
strengthen the republic than anything else
that could happen. The South would re
gard such an event as a full recognition of
its political eonality. and once relieved of
the badge of inferiority, it would forego
its sectional narrowness and become na
tional. if it should so happen in the next
presidential election that an eminent ami
univi rsally respected Southern citizen
should be run on one side, and General
Grant, with his views ripened and liberal
ized by time, experience, and study of for
eign institutions, should be run on the
other side, the very contest between two
such candidates, no matter which might be
elected, would soothe and moderate, and
go far toward extinguishing the sectional
passions which Mr. Blaine is endeavoring
to stir up.' 1
The above section of an editorial from
ti e N. Y. Herald is a fair sample of the
bosh and blarney indulged in by the great
metro-polo-tan journal of America. It
sounds very nice to an unsophisticated
Southerner, and is intended to Halter
Southern readers; but the question that
obtrudes itself upon our doubting mind
while perusing this very unsectional
'• view.” is whether the Herald in the event
of a contest for the Presidency between a
•* liberal nnd pa!riotie Southern citizen”
and General Grunt, would not go might and
main for the man *■ with his views ripened
and liberalized by time, experience and
study oj'f'oreii/n institutions Such papers
as (lie S'. Y. Herald and Sun talk very
well until the pinch comes, and then—but
you will have to wait and see what they
will do then. It is beyond mortal ken to
foreshadow their positions that far off.
