BENSON & McGIIL, Editor*.

Wouldn't a Legislature of editors play
“ smash and turn up Jack !”
The Legislature has decided to let the
ilngucornological Bureau remain in tact.
The dear people will be to glad.
lion. Jas. M. Smith’s speech against
the Agricultural Bureau was able and
Conclusive. Oglethorpe should be proud
of him.
We hope our Senator and Representa
tive will not forget to call the attention ol
the General Assembly to the obstruction
in the Savannah River. That river wasn't
made for Augusta alone, and don't let the
legislature forget it.
Bribery, ignorance, white-washing, cor
ruption and everything disgraceful is get
ting mixed up with Democratic Georgia
politics, and Bullock smoles a knowing
smile. Oh. how badly Georgia needs firm,
fearless, honest statesmanship.
Some of the newspapers? are giving Boh
Toombs •• Hail Columbia " for Ins recent
unkind criticism of Mr. Davis. While
there may have been some truth in what
Robert said, yet it was totally uncalled
for. The country can well afford to wail
until the unerring pen of an impartial his
torian gives the causes of the failure of the
•Confederacy. Probably Bobby Toombs
made a greater mistake in leading Georgia
out of the Union than Jefferson Davis ever
jnade as President of the Confederacy.
DON’T CROWD THE MONKEY.
We notice that a number of our ex
changes arc shooting hot shot at the Legis
lature for not transacting business more
.rapidly, and urging them to adjourn and
come home. Now there is reason in all
things, the Legislators were sent there to
.■legislate, and wc can't see how they are
'.to be held responsible for the vast amount
of local matters brought before them.
If the Legislature should adjourn and not
pass on these matters, what curses loud
and deep would follow the poor members
to the quietude ot their homes. Of course
much valuable time will be lost in useless
discussion, but this has always been and
.will ever be the case.
A HOOD SUGGESTION.
The suggestion of our public-spirited
•correspondent H. K.” is a good one—
especially with regard to fencing in a park
•round the courthouse. Aside Ironi the
beautifying effect it would have on the
.public square, it would prevent the wash
ing which is disfiguring the ground. The
cost of an iron fence would be nominal
compared to the good achieved. We learn
that a celebrated railroad official while here
on a visit, said that the town was the best
situated and prettiest be knew of. and that
■if Ihe county would put an iron fence
aroiirni cnesquic sou piam gias.-es, lie
would invest s.‘>.ooo in real estate in the
town. Beautify and render tbi town at
tractive and capital will llow in as natu
rally as the sparks tly upward. Of course
our columns are always open for the dis
cussion of this or any other measure look
ing to the advancement of tho public iu
.teresi.s of our town and county.
EDITORIAL CORRESPONDENCE.
House of Representatives, Y
Atlanta, Ga., July 21st, 1879. j
To-day is the anniversary of the battle
of Manasses. Eighteen years ago to-day
Southern blood was shed upon Southern
soil in defence of Southern homes and
ihearthstones. It is certainly not rebellious
•to say the day is one that is fraught with
•interest to a large number of our people.
‘But the cause for which that terrible strug
gle was waged is lost, and the dark man
tle is drawn over the principles so gloomi
ly constellated on its banner. We would
not seek to draw them " trembling from
•’their dread abode.” We allude to the in
■ cident because on that day many homes in
Georgia were made desolate, and the ra-
Wens of death threw their dark pinions
over some of the most gifted and chival
rous of Georgia's sons. Again, we allude
to this fact because it reminds us of the
swift rotations of the ceaseless wheels of
time. Sitting in our room this cool, pleas
ant afternoon, looking out upon the busy
and crowded streets in Georgia's proud
Capital, our thoughts involuntary revert
to the time when as a mere hoy our heart
thrilled at the joyous intelligence of
Confederate victory as doubtless that of
the dying Wolfe when informed that the
heights of Abraham had fallen. But a
span, hut one turn of the wheel and boy
hood's dreams and fancies are ended and
life's grave realities involving as they do
-matters of state and of the public weal,
-overshadow our pathway. And soon, very
soon, those who are now rocked in their
.cradles, or barely lisp their mother's name
•will follow in the great march onward.
Such is life. But enough moralizing.
Siuce our last tine rains have fallen, the
-dust disappeared, the atmosphere cooled,
the business man become more hopeful
and everybody appears to have a happier
heart auu more elastic steps. It was cer
tainly needed bad enough, and we trust
that the gloomy prospect which seemed (o
stare our people in the face will he greatly
ameliorated.
During the week just ended the General
Assembly lias been engaged about as fol
lows : On Monday the Senate had under
discussion the hill to prohibit the sale ol
intoxicating liquors within two miles of pre
cincts on election days. In the House, the
untini dud busine s to-wit: the call of the
roll of counties for the introduction of new
matter engaged attention.
Tuesday, the Senate continued the dis
cussion on the election liquor law and
passed it. In tho House, the debate on
the Bill to abolish the Agricultural Bureau
was finished and a vote reached just belore
adjournment. The vote was taken upon
the question of agreeing to the report of
the Committee on Agriculture which was
adverse to the passage of the bill, as fol
lows : ayes 82, nays 06.
Wednesday, in the Senate considerable
discussion prevailed on the hill to repeal
the act passed at the last session allowing
juries to recommend imprisonment for life
In murder cases. A majority of the ju
diciary committed reported against the
passage of the hill. On a vote to disagree
to the majority report the motion prevailed.
In the House, the penitentiary hill or
rather hills were taken up. One consists
of a hill reported by the penitentiary com
mittee providing for three wardens to re
side at each camp retaining the office of
principal keeper of the penitentiary. To
t in bill Mr. Miller, of Houston, has of
fered a substitute providing for six mana
gers to be elected by the usneral Assem
bly to from time to time visit the camps
and make reports to the Governor, to oe
laul befi r • tne General Assembly. Also,
abolislu a th ■ ofllce of keeper of the peni
tentiary and devolves bis duties on the pen
itentiary physician and Secretary of State.
Wednesday and Thursday the House
was engaged perfecting these two bills in
order to determine between them. Each
bill lias a very strong support, and if the
House gets pretty squarely divided it may
adopt neither.
Thursday the Senate passed the bill
taking away from juries the right to re
reconiniomi mercy in murder casea.
Friday, the Senate passed some unim
portant hills. In the house the report oil
the investigation of live Governor's conduct
in signing the Northeastern R. R. Bonds
came up. and a substitute for the report
was ottered providing for entering the re
port of the committee on the journal with
out any further action on the part of the
house. After a call of the roll of coun
ties, the hour of t clve arrived, whicli had
been fixed as the time for the committee
on deceased members to make a report.
The committee reported appropriate tri
butes to the memory of Messrs. Alston
and Jamison, the two deceased members,
and after a few words of eulogy by various
friends of tbe deceased, the House under
the resolution adjourned over until to-day.
Saturday, nothing of interest was done.
The Senate went through with its regular
business, and the judiciary committee of
the house held a long session trying to get
up with its much crowded business.
Quite a stir was created by offers being
made to bribe two members of the wild
land committee to sign a paper exonerating
the Comptroller General. It is thought
that the house will prefer articles of im
peachment.
On Friday last .Judge Htllyer overruled
the motion for new trial in the Sam hill
rase. General Gartrcll made an able ap
peal for the defendant. The case now
?;oes to the Supreme Court, and that tri
iuiihl Will have to decide whether under
the law of Georgia a man is to be hanged
or imprisoned for life for killing the crimi
nal who, forgetting all the ties of duty or
of law. invades the sanctity of his home ami
destroys its bappinors forever. Ucfore
tiod we trust that such a rule will not pre
vail in civilized Georgia, but that every
criminal of this character throughout our
land may know full well that his life is
forfeited to the one he wrongs.
Being at leisure one evening, we visited
the prison cells of Messrs. Samuel 11. Hill
and Edward Cox. hill is a rather small
man, of pleasant address, he talked free
ly and fluently about the story of his
wrongs, he pointed out the drawings on
the wall. They are allegories. The ones
on the side of the cell have been mentioned
in the papers. Another has been drawn
over tbe entrance door ot bis cell. It rep
resents himself and wife, their right hands
clasped, his left pointing heavenward, and
above the inscription—” Wc have left it
all with God.” On the outskirts appear
the images of angels as if approving the
great moral courage of forgiveness. The
drawings he said were his first efforts in
that line, and were done to while away time
and divert attention from his troubles.
Per w o man nf nnrtlv size <*f Urn* ad
dress and conversation and don’t look nor
talk like a murderer, his case goes to the
Supreme Court and he appears hopeful.

Augusta F.veningNews : KingCetvwayo.
of Ztizuland, is a mulatto from Western

Confederate navy, but in the Federal, Ital

On the 18th a horrible tragedy occurred

he laid down, but did not have tine to
stop the engine.
Spsrta Ishmaelite : We have nevei been
able to see any reason or justice in alsury
law. and that introduced into the Iloise by
Mr. Davis, of Houston, seems to he
ally obnoxious to adverse criticism, We
are opposed to tbe establishment f any
rate or interest by law. Money oifelit to
j bring whatever it is worth in market.
There is no conclusive reason at all. tvhv a
■ man's money shouldn't bring the narket
price, just as does his cotton, corn, trheat.
and other property. There would be as
much justice in fixing the price which the
, merchant is to get for his goods, a there
is in saying how much he will get for his
money. A merchant may borrow SIO,OOO.
invest it in goods of any description and
make an average of 50 per cent.; 1* if the
man who lends the money shoul'Kyiarge
2<> per cent, for it. he would he denliJ'inced
lin anti-ysnry circle* * monster. This is
absurd, as we understand it, I’ class
legislation of the most indefensible sort,
and seems to go on the singular idea that
money-lenders are the enemies of the hu
man race. But the hill of which we are
speaking goes beyond anything which wc
have heard of in the line of unjust repres
siveness. It actually provides for the con
fiscation of both principal and interest in
nil cases in which more than a certain rate
is charged. This is putting n premium on
robbery itself. Such a hill ought to be de
fined *• An act to legalize and encourage,
in certaiu cases, larceny from the person.”
There is no principle of justice or sound
policy on which such legislation can be de
fended. It is wrong, forsooth, for a money
lender to charge 20 per cent, for his money
when the borrower himself sets the price
or agiees to it; lint it is all serene and
heavenly to charge the lender one hundred
per cent, of the principal and all the inter
est. for the villainous crime of asking for
his property what tbe borrower said it was
worth. The logic of all this is. that it is a
crime to lend money, or an evil, at least;
ami that it is the duty of the Legislature to
nit an end to tbe practice. Mr. Davis is
known to ns personally as a clever gentle
man and a young lawyer of great promise ;
but we hope bis bill, and all similar ones,
will be buried beyond tbe puaelLilDty of
resurrection.
A dispatch from New York reports that
the will of Mrs. Dorsey, bequeathing all
her property to Jefferson Davis, is to be
contested by her relatives, some of whom
reside in Brooklyn, and that steps to that
end have already been taken. The prop
erty in question consists, besides ready
money, of a large tract of uncultivated
lands in Kansas and of the Beauvoir-Elk
ridge plantation and the Elliston planta
tion in Kansas parish, Louisiana, and is
thought to be worth over $250,000.
Atlanta : Up to this time
the Secretary of war has not authorized
the expenditure of a single dollar on the
rivers and harbors of Georgia, although
about SIIOO.OOO was appropriated for that
purpose. There seems to be no trouble in
procuring the Secretary's endorsement of
appropriations for insignificant Northern
streams or harbors.

Extra Dots on District Meeting.
Editors Sun : 1 was impressed with
the following facts while in attendance on
the District meeting at Bcthesda Church:
That more brains and talent are employ
ed in the ministry for less money than in
any other profession. I was- astonished
on hearing the reports from the different
circuits to see what small amounts of
money had been paid the preachers this
year.
That these men surely were called to
the good work in which they are engaged.
That not one man in a hundred pays
one-tenth part of what he should for the
support ot the ministry.
.Notwithstanding, these men of God go
on in their duty (with their families sutt'er
ing). and show" their faith by their good
works.
What wonder that we have droughts ?
It is alarming to think of tbe spiritual
condition of our land, how can we ex
pect to succeed temporally when we are so
totally destitute of liberality, yea, charity.
As it is known, a few members in every
Church do what is done towards paying
the preacher, and they are as particular to
count every nickle anil bundle of oats
given him as if their own lives depend upon
it. Young men, who spend dollars for
cigars, ami things as useless, think they
are extremely liberal if they pay a few
cents quarterage ; indeed, it is extremely
hard to get anything at all out of them.
The man who is not able to pay the
preacher should he sent to the poorliouse.
for if he is not really able to help support
the church he is an object of charity, and
the county should take him in charge.
have you land? have you any prop
erty or money? Have you health? have
you hearts ? Then bestow something upon
the Lord, who gives you life and permits
you to have wliat you have.

Roswell. Ga., July 13. 1879.
It is red hot and dry as a powder house.
Corn burning up and cotton has begun to

of the farmers are done working their
crops. The Roswell Factory will not run
more than half time this week unless it
rains. Many of tho creeks are nearly dry.
There is a great deal of sickness in this
section. The Doctors are riding nearly all
the time, and several deaths have occurred
in the last five weeks. There is a protract
ed meeting in progross at the Methodist
Church in this place, in which considera
ble interest is taken. There have been a
number of additions to the church, and a
large number more seem to he earnestly
inquiring the way of eternal life. The
merchants are doing hut little business.
The people have but little money and no
disposition to spend what they have.
Wheat is worth from 90 cents to $1 per
