Dawson, Ga., August ÜB, 187D.
The Maeon and Brunswick
ltailroad Dense.
The bill au horising the Governor to
lease this road for a period of 20 years
for $60,000 a year, and requiring the
lessees, among other things, to extend
the road from Macon to Atlanta, has
passed both Houses of the Legislature
and will become a law.
There was but little opposition to the
bill. If a lease can be consummated
under the act, it will not only bring a
considerable income into the treasury of
the state, but will break up a huge mo
nopoly that has, for years, beer, stran
gling the life out of a large part of
southern Georgia. This, we opine, was
the main object of the bill, and is a
retribution that the Central ltailroad
has brought upon itself by many and
long continued acts of oppression and
unjust discrimination. A writer in the
Atlanta Constitution shows by indispu
table facts that the local freight char
ges of the Central and Southwestern
roads are from 75 to 150 per cent,
higher than those of roads in the north
ern parts of the state. Besides these
extortionate freight charges, the Cen
tral road has not hesitated, when it
could make a few dollars by it, to dis
criminate against such places as it had
in its power almost to their distraction.
Dawson has not yet recovered from the
strangling grasp of the huge monopoly,
although the action of.the constitution
al convention, and the rising indignation
of the people, compelled it to somewhat
relax its iron grasp a year ago.
Under the provisions of the bill to
lease the Macon and Brunswick road,
Wadley can have nothing to do with
it.
The Macon Telegraph, and Savannah
J\'ews cpposed the lease. Now that the
bill lias passed, the Telegraph thinks
that no one will take the lease with the
conditions imposed, while an Atlanta
correspondent of the News says that
there was an immense money power
from New York and Boston urging the
passage of the bill. It is not likely
that any one would spend money to
pass the bill unless he expected to reap
the benefit of it. Although the road
does not pass through our immediate
section, we expect some of the benefits
of the resultant competition, should the
road be leased and extended.
The Impeachment Trial.
Last Thursday was the day appoint
ed for the beginning of the trial of W.
L. Goldsmith, comptroller-general, for
high crimes and misdemeanors before
the Senate. The Senate was, on that
day, organized as a court of impeach
ment, Chief Justice, Ilira n Warner,
presiding. After the Chief Justice and
members had taken the prescribed oath,
several members asked to be excused
Irom setting in the trial; Senators Bow
er and Candler on the ground that they
had been members of the investigating
committee, aud Senator Turner on the
ground that he had bought wild land fi
fas. from the comptroller. Their ex
cuses were not considered sufficient,
and they were not excused. Goldsmith
appeared with his counsel, Hopkins &
Glenn, Candler and Thompson and Capt.
Henry Jackson, and asked ten days fur
ther time to prepare for trial. After
some discussion on the part of manager
Turner and Judge Hopkins, the defen
dant was allowed until Monday next,
the first day of September, to file his
plea. At that time, the trial will be
gin in earnest. It is thought that ij
will consume at least, a month, and
there is some talk of the House taking
a recess pending the trial.

Trouble in Mississippi.
A man named Dixon, some weeks
ago, announced himself an independent
candidate for sheriff'of Yazoo county,
Mississippi. He began immediately to
stir up strife between the races by mak
ing inflammatory appeals to the negroes
inciting them to riot and bloodshed. The
white citizeus, fearing that such a course
would bring about trouble, met and
sent a deputation to him demanding that
he should withdraw from the race and
leave the country. This, after some
parleying he agreed to do. A few days
afterwards, Dixon and a man named
Barksdale met and got into a personal
difficulty in which Dixon was shot and
killed.

Schism
[Extracts from N. Y. Herald Corres
pondent.]
Atlanta, August 9.— 1 went
through the State House to-day to see
what the men under fire had to say for
themselves. I called first upon Gover
nor Colquitt. The Governor is thor
oughly indignant at the assaults that
have been made upon him, and says
that he shall push every charge or in
sinuation to the bottom. He says: “I
went into this office pledged to economy
and retrenchment. That pledge I have
scrupulously kept. The expenses have
been cut dowu in every department
and the expenditures in the contingent
fund. The public printing, public build
ings and ail have been less than ever be
fore. I not only challenge but I court
the fullest investigation into my every
official act. I perceive clearly the ob
ject of the assaults that have been made,
but nothing shall prevent my offering
every inducement to an investigation of
all my acts. Investigation kills slan
der !”
A close friend of the Governor's said
to me as I was leaving the office: “The
Governor is determined not to submit
to this persecution and insult. He is
going before the people. You see there
is not a man in Georgia, not even his
bitterest enemy, who does not avow his
strongest belief in the Governor’s hon
esty and integrity. But at the same
time they start the most vicious insinu
ations and slanders against him. Now
he does not propose to rest under these
things. They try to make him respon
sible for everything that happens in any
department of the government The
Legislature elects the Comptroller and
the Treasurer, and yet everything that
is charged on either office is put at the
Governor’s door. Ho proposes to stand
on his own administration and go to the
people.”
an indescribable situation.
It is impossible to describe the sit
uation. There is uneasiness, dread and
restlessness everywhere. No one knows
what to expect next. Nothing seems
too sa red < r too strong for suspicion.
The public mind is strained and the
slightest rumors have terrible effect.—
There was no time during bullock s ad
ministration when there was so much of
distrust and of abuse. Good men go
about the capital hanging their heads in
distrust and doubt. Others arc earn
est in the determination to rebuke the
men who they say have, for political
purposes, slandered the good name of
the State and besmirched her records.
There are others yet who declare that
the “surface is just being scraped off of
the mass of corruption that lies beneath.”
The Republicans take no part in the
fight, but the various wings of the Dem
ocratic party have joined in a terrible
issue One memoer said to me: “It is
simply a fight of the outs against the
ins; they will break down anything to
get in.” Another said: “It is the work
of Independents, who, having captured
two districts and bulldozed two others,
are now determined to take the State
government.” And another yet: “It
is the rally of the men or the friends of
ihe men whom Colquitt refused to ap
point to office taking their revenge.”
A pahtyspi.it imminent.
The beginning of this trouble may
be found in the overwhelming party ma
jority that the Democracy of Georgia
has had for the past six years. It is
always hard to hold a large majority to
discipline When the edict of a con
vention amounts to an election without
i fight there will be a bolt from that
convention. No people of intelligence
or aspiration will consent to see all their
officers distributed by a caucus and all
their campaigns fought in the back
rooms of politicians. There has been a
growing feeling of independence in
Georgia for some years. Felton capt
ured the Seventh District six years ago
and Speer captured the Ninth a year
ago. Stephens demoralized the Eighth
by defying its convention, and Arnold
came near beating llamiuond in the
Fifth. These are the Democratic
strongholds, and they have been lost,
virtually, to the organized Democracy.
During the contests of the “Independ
ents” with the “organized” several
newspapers embraced the Independent
faith. After the Congressional fight
was over these papers still continued
their warfare on the “organized,” tak
ing Governor Colquitt and the State
administration as the object o* assault.
These papers made a breach in the par
ty, and, doubtless, suggested the idea
of investigation. Since then there have
been members of the Legislature not
connected with the Independent party
who have put on foot the spirit ot iu
quiryr. At last we have investigation
run mad. There can be no limit set
for the nosing out business. Even the
men who do not believe that the Demo
cratic administration is corrupt do not
oppose the investigation, as it will re
sult in something definite, and will put
down the spirit of slander, or fix cor
ruption upon the accused.
THE PROBABLE RESULT.
I do not believe, from careful inqui
ry, that the investigations will amount
to anything. They will bo thorough
and searching, but they will hardly
find anything serious. It may be that
there is one official or so who will be
found to have failed in his duty or to
have made a blunder, or is even guilty
of corruption, but I do not think any
thing will be found to justify this
wholesale and noisy crusade against the
honor ot the State and the Democratic
party. The Senate, before which the
matter must be tried, is a strong body.
It is impartial, capable and is not dis
turbed by the cliques and factions that
clash in the House. It is honest enough
to give a fair judgement on all matters
presented to its jurisdiction, and strong
enough to have that judgement respect
ed. The best opinion predicts ;■ terri
ble reaction against the men who have
started or inspired these investigations
as soon as the final results are ob
tained.
THE CONTEST FOR THE GOVERNORSHIP.
The quarrel has gone far enough,
howover, to insure one thing, and that
is a split in the party that will result in
one of the most bitter campaigns ever
known in Georgia. The Independents
are determined to contest the State with
the party men, and they are looking for
a candidate. Of course Dr. Felton
could get their support if he wanted to
make the race, but lie feels secure in
his Congressional seat and has decli
ned. Desperate attempts have been
made to get General Toombs in the
field, but lie has refused time and
again to enter the lists. Mr. Steph
ens has been approached, but it is be
lieved he lias refused to listen to the
syren voices. Special inquirries have
been made over the State to get sonic
idea of Mr. Stephens’ strength, but, it
is believed, without his knowledge.
He would ina! e a formidable candi
date if he should run. The general
impression seems to be,however,that
the Independents will settle on Judge
Hiram Warner, the present Chief
Justice of the State. lie is a New
Hampshire man, but has been on the
bench in Georgia for the most of his
life. He is honest and capable, but
unmagnetic and stiff. lie will most
probably be centered on by the Inde
pendents. Whether he will accept
or not remains to be seen.
It is certain that Governor Colquitt
will ask for another term, and almost as
certain that he will have the nomination
of his party. Nothing has ever been
discovered and nothing will be discov
ered, that can effect in the slighest de
gree his integrity or efficiency. Ilis ad
ministration, judged by its results, has
been one of the best Georgia ever had,
and his friends claim that all this cloud
of slander will be dispelled as soon as
he gets before the people. I asked Sena
tor Jno. B. Gordon what he thought of
the situation. “Governor Colquitt
must and will make the race, and he will
be overwhelmingly re-elected. Some
time ago 1 was rather opposed to the
Governor taking another term, even if
it had been offered to him; but since
this unjust and wanton and malicious
assault has been made upon him, his
friends would not permit him to retire
even if he wanted to do so. It is his
duty to the Democratic party and to the
State of Georgia, as well as to himself
and his friends, that he should make
this race, and vindicate them from the
aspersions of ambitious and unprinci
p.ed men. I, of course, know nothing
of the details ot the investigations.that
are being made, and cannot speak of
them; but I know that Colquitt is pure,
capable and wise, that he has made a
good Governor—one of the very best, in
fact—that nothing can ever he brought
against him, and I am sure and certain
that the people will rise up against this
tide of defamation and slander and re
elect him by an overwhelming majori
ty-”
The fight over the State officers in
Geoigia will be fierce and obstinate. It
will split the party in two parts. Wheth
er this spilt will extend into national
questions in the State is not certain.
It is improbable, but not impossible,
that two electoral tickets will be run
and supported by men who have been
acting with the Democrats for years.
The developments will be made very
rapidly. In the meantime it is fair to
say for the honor of Georgia, and de
spite these charges of corruption, that
the results achieved by the Colquitt ad
ministration surpass anything ever done
yet. The expenses of the government
have been reduced vastly; the tax rate
has been reduced 25 per cent.; the rate
of interest paid for money for the State
has been cut down from seven and six
to five per cent., and now four per cents
float at par. The credit of the State is
vastly improved, its affairs are prosper
ous, its people cheerful, contented and
happy, and it is shrewdly guessed that
it is the politicians, after all, that are
making all the disturbance.

CASE OF COL. J. C. BItANSON.
Kingston, Ga , September 15, 1871.
Gents: —For 16 years I have been a great
sufferer from Scrofula in its most distressing
forms. I have been confined to my room
and bed for 16 years with scrofulous ulcera
tions. The most approved remedies for
such cases had been used, and the most
eminent physicians consulted, without anv
decided benefit. Thus prostrated, distressed
desponding, 1 was advised by Dr. Aye r , of
Floyd county, Ga , to commence the use of
your Compound Extract Stillingia. Language
is as insufficient to describe the relief I ob
taired from the use of the Stillingia as is to
convey an adequate idea of the intensity of
my suffering before using your medicine;
sufficient to say, I abandoned all other rem
edies and continued the use of your Extract
of Stillingia, until 1 can say truly, ‘‘l am
cured of pain,“ of all disease, with nothing
to obstruct the active puisuit of my profes
sion. More than eight months have tlapsed
since this remarkable cure, without any re
turn of the disease.
For the truth of the above statement I
refer to any gentleman of Bartow county,

West Point, Ga , Sept. 15, 1871.
GrNTS:-My daughter was taken on the 251 h
day of June, 1868, with what was supposed
to be Acute Rheumatism, ar.d was treated
for the same with no sueccss. In March,
following, pieces of bone began to work
out of the right arm, and continued to ap
pear till all the bone ft-jm the elbow to the
shoulder joint came out. Many pieces of
bone came out of the right foot and leg.
The case was then pronounced one of White
Swelling. Alter haviug been confined about
six years to her bed, and tbe case considered
hopeless, I was induced to try Dr. Pember
ton’s Cumpoun l Extract of Stillingia, ana
was so well satisfied with its effects that I
have continued the use of it until now.
My daughter was confin< and to her bed
about six years before she sat up or even
turned over without help. She now sits up
all day and sews most o her time, has walk
ed across the room. Her general health is
now good, and I believe she will, .s her
limbs gain strength, walk well. I attribute
her recovery, with the bleeding of God, to
ihe use of your valuable medicine.
With gratitude, I am, yours truly,

Hair Vigor,
FOR RESTORiNG GRAY HAIR T 0 , T<s
NATURAL VITALITY AND COLOR.
It is a most agreeable dressing, wh ieh
is at once harmless and n r t
serving the hair. It restores, with th
gloss and freshness of youth, faded or gray
hgh , and red hair, to a rich brown, or de e ’
black, as may be desired. By i, s U9e th J
ham is thickened, and baldness O tZ
though not always cured. It checks fall ™
of the hair immediately, and causes anew
growth in all cases where the glands am
not decayed; while to brashy, weak °
otherwise diseased hair, it imparts vitalitv
and strength, and renders it pliable. *
The Vigor cleanses the scalp, cures and
prevents the formation of dandruff- and
by its cooling, stimulating, and sowing
properties, it heals most if not all of the
humors and diseases peculiar to the scab
keeping it cool, clean, and .soft, un and
which conditions diseases of the scalp and
hair are impossible.
Asa Dressing for Ladies’ Hair
The Vigor is incomparable. It is color
less, contains neither oil nor dye, and will"
not soil white cambric. It imparts an
agreeable and lasting perfume, and as an
article for the toilet it is economical and
unsurpassed in its excellence.
