SENATOR hill s speech.
\\'e hare before us in full the great and
masterly speech of Senator B. 11. Hill, de
livered in the United States Senate, the 10th
inst.. on the army appropriation hill. A
great many synopses ami telegraphic re
po-ts. giving a condensed account of this
brilliant production of Georgia s great or
:ator, have been published; but. as Sheba's
-Queen said of Solomon, the half has not
been told.
In order to see the grand power, logic
and force of the speech, it should be read
from beginning to end. We would that
space in these columns would allow us to
present it to our readers just as it fell
from tire lips of the matchless orator. We
will not undertake to give a full synopsis,
but some of the sslient points.
Mr. Hill first replies to the argument of
Mr. Cankling. of New York, and shows the
fallacy of his argument in contending that
all the revenue customs were paid by the
State at whose port they were collected.
According to this position the Senator
from New York could prove that New
York is the largest cotton growing .State in
the world.
Mr. Hill nest shows conclusively that
the proposed repeal of the lsw authorizing
the use of the army at the polls does not
repeal the prior laws on this subject, as
contended by Mr. Edmunds, of Vermont.
Adverting to the efforts of the Republican
leaders in trying to dietato to the Presi
dent. Mr. Hill uses the following language :
“ Sir. I would not say one word of dis
paragement to that high Chief Magistrate
in this critical hour. I feel and feel keenly
the heavy responsibilities that rest upon
him. Will he remember now those grand
words which ho uttered in Ins inaugural.
‘ He best serves his party win* best serves
his country?’ " ill he rise above the
clamor, the dictation nnd the demands nf a
struggling party, seeking to regain life by
reviving sectional agitation, and serve his
enmitrv like a patriot? Will he do that?
If he shall do so. lie will for tho second
time, at least, in his administration, show
himself worthy of the high position which
he holds.”
Mr. Hill accepts the position of Mr.
Conk ling, that it is a constitutional duty to
vote appropriations, and that in the forty*
fifth Congress tire Democratic party per
formed that constitutional duty, and the
Republicans, to a man. had refused to per
form that constitutional duty by voting
against the appropriation bill, and thus
made the extra session a necessity. That
if it be a constitutional duty for Congress
to pass the appropriation kills, it was a
a constitutional duty for the President to
approve them when passed ; tlint in the
present Congress the Democratic party
liad passed the appropriation bill, the Rc

cuses for it. What excuse, asks Mr. Hill.
ran justify a man in doing an unconstitu
tional act? The excuses were to the form
and substance of the legislation proposed.
Tho legislation opposed by the Republi
cans and vetoed bv the President was both
constitutional in form and constitutional in
substance. The Republicans hare done an
unconstitutional act. and the only excuse
offered is the fact that (’engross proposed
to do that onlv which it had a perfect con
stitutional right to do. The object which
the framers of the constitution had in view
in clothing the President with the veto
power was to prevent unconstitutional and
nasty and inconsiderate legislation. In
this case neither of the facts existed. The
measure was constitutional, and it was de
liberated for months ami exhaustively dis
cussed. The conclusion, therefore, is. the
veto power was arbitrarily exercised for
part}’ends and purposes Mr. Hill go< s
into an extended discussion on the charac-
ter of our Government, and shows that the
Republican par y is seeking hy its action
to overthrow the great principles of our
Constitution. Against these threatening
dangers Mr. Hill uses the following lan
guage :
” U T c appeal to the people. We are go
ing to the people in favor of tho Constitu
tion of Madison—the Constitution of Web
ster. We are going to the people in favor
of their own freedom at the polls; in favor
of their own intelligence in the jury box:
in favor of the independence of the States
in the management of their elections, as
bad always been the case heretofore. The
people will answer, in my judgment. North
as well as South.”
The South certainly has a strong, fear
less champion in Mr. Hill. 11 is speech is
masterly and complete. It vindicates the
South from the evil denunciations that
came against her from such men as Maine.
Edmunds and Chandler ; it vindicates the
objects and laudable purposes of the South ;
it vindicates our great Southern sentiment
and manhood which have been too often
assailed hy our enemies. In painting the
dire purpose*, of those who seek to per
petuate sectional hates, lie colors with the
dark shades of a Rembrandt, and cuts
with the incision of a Damascus blade.
The speech is replete with logic and truth,
and the stalwart* will exhaust, their ranks
before they can find a foetnon worthy of
Mr. Hill’s steel.
DECISION BT JUDGE POTTLE.
Wc herewith jrive the decision of Jndpc
I‘otllc rendered recently in the caw of A.
11. Colquitt, for ue. Ac., vs. 1.. C. Brown
cr4 Victoria F.. Brown, claimants. The
4'trc was argued by brief by Solieitorßce.se
for t*.ie plaintiff", and Hons. A. O. McCur
ry ml w. O. Johnson for defendants, and
the (tecision rendered at Chambers, which
u as folio its ;
"This case was submitted to me for de
cision on liic law and facts to be determin
ed without the intervention of a Jury. 1 y
agreement it was to be heard at Oclethorpc
Superior Court at the April term last past.
By another agreement the decision was re
served to suit the convenience of the pre
siding Judge. It is claimed that the decis- j
ion of tho Supreme Court, delivered at the
August term last, controls this case and is
inconsistent with Farmer vs. Taylor. 50
Georgia, 539. and others of same iuiport.
The facts in the case of Smith vs. Roberts
sre not fully given in the report of that ;
t'4, ac in the pamphlet of decisions, but the i
• Utc;. pretty clearly indicate what those
(pci/, were, sud make that case distinguish- ;
pblc Uds, This case shows that !
Hroj.-n kps adjudicated a bankrupt on j
toe 20th <jT DcEcßil/ef. 1877. and was dis
tha/vH * ugu.st the £j?fh 4 J**?* - Art uridi
vested judgment lien was upon the prop
erly because the judgment had not been
proren in tbo Bankrupt Court, that the
same property levied on was set apart for
him by the assignee, that after tills dis
charge and assignment to the bankrupt of
the exempted property, the claimant ap
plied for a Homestead on this identical
property, to wit : oth January, 1870. and
on the tHli of February. 1879. the applica
tion was approved. In the case of Nmiih
vs. Roberts the facts arc dissimilar. There
Smith was adjudged a bankrupt on the 3d
of October. 1877. and his wife tiled her ap
plication for Homestead on the 21st, of Oc
tober and it was approved on the 3d of
December, 1877 ; the deed of assignment
in Bankruptcy was made on the 23d of
October 1877. In Ibis case the same prop
enty which was sot apart to Brown by the
assignee was set apart by the Ordinary to
Mrs. Brawn, and the proceedings before
the Ordinary took place long after the as
signee had set apart the property to Brown.
In the Smith cae. Mrs. Smith applied for
a Homestead on lands of her husband be
fore the deed of assignment in Bankrupt
cy was make. The decision must be con
strued to mean that the wife was not en
titled to the Homestead, when at the time
of the application the title was not in her
husbaiul. and no right to tho Homestead
then could divest the title of the Bankrupt
Court. With these facts in view, the de
cision ef Smith vs. Roberts is in harmony
with the other decisions cited. This decis
ion must be construed in the light of its
own facts. It is. therefore, ordered that
the property levied on in this case is not
subject, hut is exempt from levy and
and sale as Homestead property. The
Clerk will enter this order on the minutes
as of Mareh term. 1879.
Given under my hand and official signa
ture, this May 13th. 1879.

THE BIU ROM) CASE.
The case of the State against ex-Treas
urer Jones lias been disposed of. The case
consumed ten days in its trial and the ver
dict of the jury was a recovery for the
Sinteof ninety-two thousand one hundred
and ninety-live dollars. The suit was for
over a quarter of a million. The most im
portant item of alleged indebtedness on
the part of Jones was a hundred and fifty
thousand dollars, known as the Clews
Bonds. It was claimed that the Treasurer
paid these bonds a second time on the pre
sentation of Clews & Cos., under circum
stances of great negligence, and it was con
tended that he was in collusion with
(.'lews A Cos. As we understand the ease,
it was the payment of these bonds that
implicated the integrity of the ex-Treas
urer. The jury, on this item, found in
favor of Jones, either on the idea that the
bonds were roallv not paid a aeconn time
ns was contended by the counsel for the
defense, or if paid a second time, it was
done in the utmost good faith by the ex-
Treasiirer. The result is considered a
drawn battle, neither the State or the de
fense rejoicing over it.

Editors Suv : In your issue last week
we notice an article signed ** Tax Payer,”
which slates that some of the richest men
in th s county do not give in their proper
ty for taxation at one-fourth its value.
We think that a little extravagant. If he
had said half its value, it would have been
nearer the mark. The people of llart are
not more dishonest than those of other
counties of Georgia, but there seems to he
a disposition on the part of some to shun
their duty in support of a Government that
protects them in the enjoyment of life,
liberty and property. It is true this State
is cursed with some dishonest laws that
have, to a great extent, destroyed its pros
perity. Asa general rule, poor men are
as honest as rich ones, but through the
cunning of rascally politicians and law
makers, credit has been destroyed, and
poor men have to mortgage their land and
other property to get a little credit; when,
if we had good collecting laws, every man's
credit would he good, and there would be
no necessity for swearing lies.
Respectfully.
Poor Tax-Payer.

Torpor or inactivity of the kidneys is se
