[communicated.]
Messrs. Editors; Sines ay return
from England, the impression hag gone
out that I should start in a short time
for another lot of laborers. A great
many inquiries have been made con
cerning the matter, and many applica
tions for laborers. Please permit me,
through your paper, to inform all par
ties interested, that I have not had,
nor do I have, any idea of returning
to England during the winter. For
many reasons I should consider such a
trip imprudent at this season of the
year, some of which I will mention:
In England, the laboring year begins
at Michaelmas, which is an old feast of
the Roman Catholic Church. They have
old and Michaelmas, and one week in
tervenes between the two, which, with
the laboring classes in England, is a
week of holiday, and the usual time to
secure places and homes for the win
ter. This t akes place in Autumn—ear
ly in October; consequently a great
many of the trusty and most intelli
gent laborers have at this season homes,
and are under contract for the winter.
This being the case, I would consider
it a difficult matter to collect a great
number of reliable laborers there at
this season of the year. Grossing the
ocean would present another great dif
ficulty. Emigration, in a great meas
ure, ceases during the winter—in fact,
the water is so rough, and the weather
so disagreeable, that many of the steam
ers remain in dock during the winter.
Neither fire nor bedding is furnished
on the vessels, and I hardly think la
borers could be induced to cross in the
winter, eepeoially if they had any idea
of a passage in cold weather. For
these and other reasons, not necessary
to mention, I would eonsider a trip at
this season of the year extremely doubt
ful of success.
To all parties interested, I would
say that I have made all necessary ar
rangements to supply this and adjoin
ing counties with any desired number
of laborers daring the coming year.—
Having made one successful trip, the
experience I can now bring to bear on
the subject, will not only prove bene
ficial in collecting the men and select
ing such as may be desired, but will
obviate, to a great extent, the risk of
loss of men on the way.
In this connection let me add a word
or two in relation to the- laborers re
cently bronght over. Onr habits, cus
toms, diet and country, are very differ
ent from their’s, that I imagined they
would be dissatisfied—at least for a
month or two. On the contrary, they
seem perfectly contented and happy,
and so far as their labor is concerned,
and giving entire satisfaction to the
employers. They go to work with an
energy and celerity of movement that
would have put “Sambo” to shame in
his better and happier days; and while
the employers are delighted with them
in the garden and field, the ladies are
no less pleased with the honse-maids
and the milk-men, who return from
the pens morning and evening with
dripping pails aad buckets, that re
mind us very much of ante bellum time.
One gentleman has remarked, that bis
man draws the milk so rapidly and
so smoothly that when finished, the
operation is so complete and perfect,
that even the calves seem ashamed to
make an effort at sacking.
I beg your pardon for extending this
note over so much of your spaoe.
Very respectfully,
J. R. Tolbert.

Georgia Legislature,
thirty-first day’s proceedings.
SENATE.
Thursday, December TANARUS, 1871.
Senate met, President Trammell in
the chair; prayer by Rev. Mr. Ketch
urn; the roll call was dispensed with;
journal approved.
Mr. Brown moved to reconsider so
much of the proceedings of yesterday
as relates to the passage of a lull to
amend section 4430 of the Code, s> as
to make the purchase of stolen produce
a misdemeanor, and the purchse of pro
duce between sunset and sunrise, pri
me facie evidence of the same.
Mr. Matthews opposed the motion
and alluded to various instances where
the want of such a provision had work
ed serious injury. He was surprised
to leant that any district fn North
Georgia did not need such a law, bnt
Southwest Georgia undoubtedly does,
for he believed that section lost more
annually for the want of such a law
than the annual production of North
Georgia.
Mr. Burn moved to lay the motion
to reconsider on the table; adopted.
The bill to repeal the act organizing
the District Court, which was vetoed
by the Governor ad interim, was taken
up.
The message placed the veto upon
the economy, speed, and other advan
tages of the District Court as now con
stituted.
The vote on the bill stood: ayes, 33;
nays, 8; so the bill was passed.
A bill to repeal an act to declare the
poll tax for the year 1868, 1869, yet
uncollected, unconstitutional, and to
prevent the collection of the same
vetoed by the Executive—was taken
up.
The messaged based the disapprov
al of said bill upon the objectionable
form of the bill, claiming that it con
tained provisions not specified in the
title, and was unconstitutional in con
taining more than one subject matter,
and that the bill as framed would ac
complish more than the repeal of the
act aimed at.
Senator Campbell spoke at length
against the bill.
On the passage of the bill, the vote
stood, yeas, 27; nays, 13; so the bill
was yiassed.
The House bill to amend section 178
of the Code, fixing the per diem, and
mileage of the General Assembly v and
the veto message of the Executi e re
turned with the same were taken up and
read.
The message stated that the bill was
disapproved, because retroactive as
providing that it shall take efiect from
and because the slight redaction made
iu the bill is not sufficient tojmeet the
popular demand.
Mr. Hams called the previous ques
tion. The call was sustained, and the
bill passed by ayes 29, nays 8.
afternoon^session.
The Senate met at 3 p. m., President
Trammell in the chair.
The consideration of the bill to ap
portion Representatives in the Gener
al Assembly was renewed.
Mr. Nicholls opposed the bill ctg the
ground that the county of Wayne which
has no represenation in the House,
would be materially injured by its pas
sage. aud moved to strike out so much
as relates to changing Senatorial Dis
stricts; the motion prevailed and the
bill passed.
A number of bills were read the sec
ond time.
Mr. Erwin offered a resolution that
a joint committee be appointed to look
into the amount of business on the
desk of the Secretary and Clerk, and
report whether or not the public good
would be promoted by prolonging the
session beyond the constitutional lim
it; adopted.
A House resolution, requesting the
Public School Commissioner to resign
his position, was taken up.
Mr. Brown favored the passage of
the resolution. The School Commis
sioner is a stranger to the people, and
unacquainted with , theirawants, and
his report shows that the school fund
has been managed to but little-advan
tage.
Mr. Nunnally said he was in his
place when the nomination of the
School Commissioner was sent in for
confirmation, and he did alHjhe’could
to prevent it, but now he holds the of
fice legally, and he is strongly opposed
to asking him to resign merely be
cause, as .the resolution recites, he is a
stranger.
Mr. Hinton spoke in favor of the
resolution.
Mr. Brown said the resolution does
not propose to request the resignation
of the Coffiuniflßioner becouseheis a
stranger, but because the people have
not confidence in him, and without
that confidence the system of public
instruction, however perfect, could
never succed, and that farther reason
is adduced from his report.
Mr. Bams called the previous ques
tion.
The resolution was concurred in by
ayes, 23; nays, 13.
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.
House met, Speaker Smith la the
chair; prayer by Mr. Jones; Journal
approved.
Mr. Pierce moved to suspend the
rales to take np a Senate resolution

The motion to suspend prevailed,
and the resolution was tumuiaiouhly
adopted.

ed.
No appropriation was made for At
tomey-GenenjL Committee rose, re
ported progress and asked leave to sit
again. /
. Mr. W. D.tinderson moved to take
up the Governor’s veto of the bill to
reduce the per diem of officers and
members of the General-Assembly.—
The message Iras read. The reasons
assigned for <|>e veto are that the bill
is retroactive! and unconstitutional,
and that thekjreduction of only two
dollars, leaving the mileage os it was
before, was i* a sufficient redac
tion to meet tie demands of the peo
ple.
Mr. W. D. Aiderson moved to pass
the bill over tap veto.
Mr. Edwarfc called the previous
question, whisfi was sustained.
The yeas and nays were called, with
the following rWvtt:

House again went in Committee of
the Whole.
The salary of the principal keeper
of the penitentiary was reduced to
SI,OOO.
It was moved to appropriate about
$2500 to pay Messrs. Rawson, Red
wine, Hammock and others for tak
ing charge of and posting up the
State Road books. This averages
about $l5O per rhonth for those active
ly engaged. This motion did not pre
vail.
Messrs. Hoge and Jackson explain
ed the situation, when these parties
were called upon to take charge of the
books, and the value of the services
rendered.
On motion of Hr. Jackson, SIOO per
month were appropriated as pay to
the clerks employed on these books,
and $l5O per mouth, on motion of Mr.
WoffJrd of Bartow, as pay for the book
keeper employed. On motion of Mr.
Bacon, SIOO per month were appropri
ated to each of tho gentlemen who were
appointed a committee to take charge
of the books. *
afternoons session.
Houso met at 3j r. m., and resumed
the consideration of the Appropriation
Act.
Mr. Fou moved to amend the bill by
giving the Secretary of tho Senate,
Clerk of tho House, and Journalizing
Clerks, each $750; adopted.
Mr. Huutar mQveddfj wneud b? rib
ding S3OO to pay the Sheriff of Brooks
county for special services; adopted.
The bill as amended was then pass
ed.
A joint resolution of the Senatepro
viding for the appointment of a Joint
Committoe to examine the business be
fore the Legislature, with a view to
prolong the sesaion, was adopted.
President -Making,
General Butler is reported to have
said lately that ftesident-making is to
be the main business of the approach
ing session of Congress. Everybody
knew thisjiefore Butler said it Presi
dent-making 1 What is it? It means,
says the New York Journal of Commerce,
corrupt appointments, bribery, the neg
lect of all practical business.” The
greatest and worst Ring ever formed
in this country is that now working in
the interests of Grant It is so strong
and is backed up by as many forces
that nothing lesß than an uprising of
the people, without respect to party,
can put it down. It is a -Ring compos
ed of all the office-holders, contractors
and plunderers in the country, every
man of whom hae a personal interest
in the continuance of Grant in the Pres
idential office. There is no usurpation,
no fraud, no violence that they will not
resort to rather than be defeated. But
as the Journal of Commerce well says:
President-makers and lobbyists—the
most powerful of them—are not as
strong as the people, and the whirl
wind of political revoltiou, such as is
brewing, may drive them into disgrace,
or out of the country, as it has driven
some of the most audacious fellows of
the New York Ring. No other five
words oan express the ida equally well;
therefoM we bring out the immortal
“Revolutions do not go back
ward!" The mighto reform movement
commenced in New York. It is travel
ing fast through the States, rooting oat
the little rings of towns and villages.
Given time enough, it will attack Wash
ington, and break op the biggest and
worst ring inexistence, that at the
Capital, which proposes to amuse it
self with President-making while the
country suiters. >
And this gnat reform, for which the
country is so-ripe, is not to be accom
plished in>tiN» interest nor through the
instrumentality of men or parties. It
must be upon the-bssis of principle—
by an uprising of the sovereign masses
