6TATS TREASURER'S REPORT. The following is the report cf the State Treasurer made in response to a call from the House of Representa tives for information regarding the t amount of State bonds Which had been issued since his induction into office—for what they had been sold, and at what rates; what amounts had been hypothecated, &c., &c. The re port has been referred to the Finance Committee of the House:— REPORT. Treasurer's Office, ) Atlanta, Ga., Jan. 21st, 1868. j To the Honorable House of Represent atives of the State of Georgia: In response to vour resolution of yesterday, r.a follows: “ Resolved, That K. L. Angier, Treasurer of this State be, and lie is hereby requested to communicate to this house, as early as practicable, what amount of State loads have been issued since became into office, and whether or not the came have been sold or hypothecated for money borrowed ; what amount of bends have been sold, and at what price; what amount lias been hypoth ♦•catfd, and where; how much money las been borrowed by the State on hypothecated bonds; how much money has been drawn upon the faith of the hopothocated bonds of this State, and by whom ; what portion of the amount so drawn has been re ceived into the Treasury of this State; w’ at is the state of the. accounts at this tune with the State of Georgia, nr.d the party or parties with whom the State bonds have been hypothe ented ; giving a lull and clear state ment of all matters in this resolution referred to,” I have the honor to re- I*>rt that on the 21st day of Septem ber, 1868, his Excellency Governor Bullock and myself delivered to the agent of the Fourth National Bank of Now 1 ork a contract to place in their possession one hundred and fif.y thousand dollars (8150,000) of the seven per cent, bonds of the State, on or before the loth day of November, 18G8, upon which contracts as col lateral security said bank advanced us one hundred thousand dollars 18100,000 > cash. On the 6th of Oc tober, 1868, similar contracts to the amount of sixty thousand dollars ($60,000) were executed and deliver ed to the agent of the same bank, upon which security said bank ad vanced us forty thousand dollars ( $40,000) cash. On the 17th day of November, 1868, there was prepared and for warded from this office, six hundred thousand dollars ($600,000,) new reven per cent, bonds of the State of Georgia, dated November Ist, 1868, signed Rufus B. Bullock, Governor, David G. Getting, Secretary of State, coupons signed by the Treasurer, to the Fourth National Bank, to carry out the terms of the contracts made to them September 21st 'and October Cth, 1868, and to be hypothecated for f irther sums of money, to meet the interest on the public debt fallen and failing due, and for other purposes. November 9th, 1868, we received by express $25,000 as an advance on raid bonds, November 12th, $25,000 iiy express, November 20th, $25,000 on draft of Governor Bullock, De cember 7th, $25,000 by express, De cember 12th. $25,000 by express, and December 26th, $25,000 by express, all of which amounts were received into the Treasury. On the 23d day of December, 1868, supposing a considerable amount of the new seven per cent, bonds bad been sold, and desiring to make a re port of them in my annual report to the Governor, I wrote to the Fourth National Bai.k, asking them to advise me what amount of the new seven per cent, bonds bad hem sold, and at what price, and at the same time to send iue-a complete statement or ac count current of the State with the bank. On the 9th instant I received a full statement of the account, and a letter, in which was stated : “None of the new seven per cent, bonds have been sold, it being consid ered unadvisable to do so, in consul tation lietween our President and Gov. Bullock, it being considered by many that the legislature authoriz ing them was an illegal body.” Besides creating themselves in the account current with the various amounts named above, they also took c redit for a large amount, which I did not know anything about, and which had never reached the Treas ury. Not knowing how to account for these credits, I immediately start ed, on the eve of the 10th inst., for New York, to get a full explanation of them. Having arrived in New York, proceeded to the Fourth Na tional Bank, and found that Gov. Bullock had drawn drafts to the amount of thirty-five thousand dollars ( $35,000.) (Copy of the drafts I give below) which amount never has been paid in nor reported to the Treas ury by Governor Bullock. COPY OF FIRST DRAFT. No New York, Oct. 29,1868.

The letter accompanying the ac count current, reports two notes in addition to contracts mentioned be fore, given by Governor Bullock, both amounting to five hundred and seventy thousand (570,000) dollars, supposed to be given as security for money advanced, and to be advanced, to meet the interest on the public debt. Respectfully submitted, N. L. Anther, Treasurer. COME ON WITH YOUR WORK ERS AITD VOTERS. The New York Tribune has elab orated a plan for colonizing the South with Northern “workers and voters,” as follows: “The first society,” it says, “shall comprise the New England States, and apply itself especially to settling South Carolina, Georgia and Florida. The second may include New York New Jersey and Pennsylvania, and operate in colonizing Virginia and North Carolina. The third may comprise Ohio, Michigan, Indiana and Illinois, and should work in set tling Alabama, Mississippi and Louis-* ana. The fourth society should la bor in Wisconsin, Minnesota, lowa and Kansas, for the settlement of Arkansas and Texas. The purpose of these organizations would be to send trusted agents into the South to ascertain the opportunities for busi ness which are now open there by reason of the low prices of land and the abundance of labor. “Much of the land, it is said, can now be had for a dollar or two an aero, which would have sold for twen ty dollars before the rebellion, and will be worth that price again as soon as industry shall revive and the country become productive and peace ful. The failure of many of the ef forts to turn emigration southward, which were made immediately after the close of the war, was due to the delay in settling the reconstruction question ; to the facts that settlers scattered too much, not aiming to keep near enough together to protect each other; that they bought prop erty when it was from three to ten' times as high as it is now, running in debt for most it, and losing all with .its decline; planted cotton on a fall ing market, without calculating on the fall; were inexperienced in South ern industry, and were set back by two successive unusually bad seasons. Reconstruction, however, is now set tled. Property has fallen to its low est possible point. Gen. Grant will soon give security and peace to all. Emigrants going in communities will avoid the risks to person and capital incurred by those going alone. * * * * “We i»ed 3,000 Northern voters and workers in Florida, 4,000 in South Carolina. 5,000 each in Alabama, Arkansas, Mississippi and LouEiaua, and 10,000 each in Virgin ia, North Carolina. Georgia and Texas. If an emigration like that which pours westward could flow in to the South for one year only, the Southern States would he delivered from the nightmare which now op presses their politics and industry. Who will organize and undertake the wv.rk? It must he begun from mo tives of patrotiam as well as profit; must be actually superintended by men of influence, ability and vigor, and must be carried through with an industry and energy like that with, which we carried on the great strug gle for the Union itself. Are the right men and women ready to voir n teer for the work ? If they are, it can and will he done.” This scheme is not original with the Tribune, hut has been adopted in the colonization and settlement of ail barbarous countries from the days of Nimrod down to the present time. It was adopted by the cavaliers in Vir ginia and Maryland, the Puritans in New England, the Dutch in New York and the Quakers in Pennsylva nia. The Tribune, profoundly impressed with the idea that his hands of Northern colonists in the South will be very much in the condition of those pioneers of civilization among the “savages of North-Ameriea,” has taken a useful hint from history and insists that they shall come down up on us in ample force for self-protec tion against “Southern barbarism,” as Sumner terms it. They will march down upon us in small squads of five or ten thousand at a pop, and proba bly begin by stockading their houses, and mounting guard nightly to keep off the incursions of the Ku-Klux and such other lawless barbarians as are supposed to infest the country, and will continue dangerous, until Gen. Grant shall he able to give “security and peace.” The work of colonization must he carried on like the war —with great “energy and vigor,” and by men of “influence and ability.” It combines the two ideas of a pecuniary specula tion and a grand moral, intellectual and political crusade to deliver the Southern people from themselves, and bring them to tlie light and knov.l -elg of civilization and true holiness. It is a grand combination of Sharpe’s rifles, tracts, pistols, improved imple ments stated preaching and patent apple-parers and sausage machines. It is a creed of doctrine and an ounce of lead to enforce it. In short, it is a project to conquer a peace by armed occupation. Well, come on, nevertheless; come as you will, single or by thousand — with gun, rifle and pistol or with horse and plough. Come and show us how much wiser and better you are. Ilow much more industrious, thrifty, just, humane and merciful.— Ilow much better you can preach and practice. What you can teach us, and what you will be compelled to learn. Both will perhaps he the wiser by the ndventure, and it will wind up, not in turning the South in to a New England, hut in turning so much of New England into Southern men. We shall gam some knowledge, perhaps, and you will lose much con ceit of fancied superiority. The door is wide open —the room ample. The Tribune says there is a growing disposition among the peo ple of the North to seek a milder clime, and here they will have it. — The Savannah News advises them to leave behind some of their New Eng land ideas and prejudices; but no ; let them bring all their belongings. Whatever is good in their “ideas” will not hurt, and their prejudices will molify by association, when they see that the Southern people are neither savages nor fools, but fully up to the average of mankind in all the proper attributes of humanity.— Macon TeUcgraph. Southern Recuperation.— The New York Times seems to be waking up to the fact that the South, notwith standing every effort that has been made “to oppress and grind lier,” is recuperating. Upon the fact, it thus discourses: “Ever since the close of the war, a few cents an acre were all that could be obtained for choice tracts in Ala bama, Georgia, and adjoining States, and even at these prices buyers were far between. This condition exists no longer. A general advance in value has taken place. Lands which six months ago might have been had in large quantities for a dollar an acre, arc now held at five, and the prospect is a steady advance toward the real value, which is as much be yond the present figures as they are beyond those of a recent period.— ►South Carolina fully shares the bene fit of the change. The rapidity and extent of it—our Charleston corres pondent wr tes —can only be fully appreciated by those who have had opportunities for observing and con trasting the present condition of all classes of the Southern people with their condition twelve months ago.” A Startling Prediction. —Pro- fessor Leonidas, an astrologist of Indianopolis, publishes the following prediction: I observe hv the planets that a dreadful plague will commence in Russia, originating from silks brought over from Cairo, Egypt, and Turkey. It will extend across the Baltic Sea, and will desolate Germany, cause im mense mortality in England and then spread to the United States. This dreadful epidemic will spot the peo ple like leopards, and turn their flesh to a purple black. The pestilence will carry off such an amount of mortals that there will not he enough left to bury the dead, or to give them a Christian burial. The streets of our cities, towns and villages will be swarmed with the dead and dying. The groans and yells of horror will fill every one with consternation. On all sides confusion will abound. The death knell will cease ro toll as the malady rages in fury. The stench of the dead will become so com mon that the survivors will not heed it. A soldier named Clayton who lives in Person county, N. C., was released from prison at the close of the war and landed in Philadelphia ragged and without a cent of money. He met up with an old bachlor gentle man, who, taking a fancy to him, sent him to an old maiden sister, liv ing in the country, to he employed by her on her farm. He worked all that year for the old lady and saved money enough to bring him home. The other day Clayton received no tice of the old lady’s death, and that she left him the whole of her estate. The estate contains about 160 acres of good land —lies 46 miles from Philadelphia —is well stocked, and has all the conveniences of a model farm. When an acquaintance says, “llow are you ?” and rushes by you with out waiting for a reply, I wouldn’t if I was in your place, folloyv him more than a mile to tell him I was yvell. A dandy, strutting around a tav ern took up a green pair of spectacles which lay on the table, put them on his nose, and turning to the looking glass said : “Landlord how do these become me? Don’t you think they improve my looks.” “I think they do,” replied the landlord, “they hide a part of your face.” A hood ladies should never wear —falsh ood. Tiie Columbus Sun chronicles the arrival of a Mormon missionary in that city. lie tried to get a place to preach, or rather to beat up recruits, but he failed. lie neither could hire or borrow. Thebe is a landlord in Boston, who is in the habit of placing an ex tra fork beside the plate of such boarders as have not paid promptly —being an intimation to “fork over” likewise. The round of domestic life—hoop skirt. A very unpopular officer with some of tiie ladies—General House work. Cat a woman keep a secret ? is an swered in the affirmative by a cynic who adds, when she lias forgotten what it is. A country paper advertises thus : “ Wanted —an honest boy to make a devil of.” “I’m not myself at all to-day,” said a bore to the artist Inman. “No matter for that,” was the reply; “whoever else you may be, you are the gainer by the change.” CHARLES NEWTON, WITH D REWHIT Sf € 0. 9 CASH DEALERS IN LADIES’ DRESS GOODS, CLOTHING ' PIECE GOODS' FOR GENTLEMENS’ WEAR.
