We publish the following
from the Atlanta correspondent of
the .Savannah News for two reasons.
First to inform the people why their
taxes are so great; and, second, to
put it on record:
“In my judgment, the state of
Georgia has paid out about $10,000
or more without warrant of author
ity within the last eight years.—
Whether or not t he treasurer and
his bondsmen are responsible will
develop later.
The money referred to is the gra
tuity allowed the clerk of the house
and secretary of the senate for the
days they remain over after the ad
journment of the session of their
respective bodies of the assembly.
Here is the law upon the subject
as far as I can find it:
The code of 1882, chapter 2, sec
tion li)7, says that the compensation
of the secretary of the senate shall
he $60 per day for each session,
and the compensation of the clerk
of the house of representatives shall
be $70 per day for each session.
Section 200 of the same chapter
says: The secretary of the senate
and clerk of the house of represent
atives must, within ten days after
the adjournment of the session, tile
in proper order all the papers and
documents of their respective hous
es.
Section 201 of the same chapter
says: * * * And the treasurer
shall not pay their salaries until
such certificate (of the proper filing
of the papers referred to in section
200) is produced.
Section 8 of the constitution says:
The officers of the two houses, other
than the president and speaker,
.shall be secretary of the senate and
clerk of the house or representatives
and such assistants as they may ap
point; hut the clerical expenses of
1 lie senate shall not exceed $60 per
day for each session, nor those of
the house of representatives $70 per
day, for each session.
It will bo seen very clearly that
the constitution meant that the cler
ical expenses should ho limited to
$60 per day for the senate and $70
for the house for the session, and
that it contemplated no extras for
services after adjournment.
The code already defines that it
shall be the duty of the secretary of
the senate and the clerk of the house
to attend to certain duties after ad
journment before they can get their
pay for the session.
Take the past summer session and
what are the facts in the case?
Mark A. Hardin, clerk of the house,
received $70 per day for the session,
which lasted 100 days. His pay was
$7,000.
WHAT HID HE PAY OUT?
Ilansell, rending clerk, per dny, $12, or
for session if 1,200
Speer, Journal clerk 700
Truinmoll, calender clerk -100
llarrlson, enrolling clerk -100
Teamer, enrolling clerk 300
Four lady enrolling clerks l'or 21 days at
33 per day 252
Besides this phase, the policy of
tin' party is to divide the patronage
as much as possible. In Mr. Hard
in’s case there was no division, it
was all a gobble. Take lor Instance
the pay of Mr. Turner, one of tho
two engrossing clerks. He got only
$3 per day, when lie was engrossing
about one-half of all the bills of the
house, besides acting as reading
Jerk very frequently.
It was sometime ago that Mr.
lalvin, of Richmond, had the house
>ass a resolution to the effect that
it was the sense of the house that as
tar as possible, lady clerks should
l>e employed to do the engrossing.
Well, it was a wise move towards
opening the way for honorable em
ployment for southern women. The
result under Mr. Hardin is gratify
ing, in that the ladies were allowed
to make $252 out of the $7,000 allow
ed for clerical expenses.
In regard to the secretary of tho
senate, he is allowed $60 per day
or the session, and a resolution
allowed him to remain over five
days after adjournment, but if I am
not mistaken, Mr. Harris went
home two or three days thereafter,
and lie gets tlie pay of $60 per day
for tho limit of time, $300. He
made nearly as much as Hardin.
He paid Maj. J. T. Taylor, the best
journal clerk in the state, less than
$5 per day—how much less the
major was ashamed to tell. On
that basis I presume tho other
clerks, Cabaniss, Hardeman and
Parks, were paid proportionately
less than the house clerks received;
so Mr. Harris, probably got quite as
much as Mr. Hardin, and as he em
ployed no extra or lady clerks for
enrollment lie doubtless made more
than did the astute Mark A. Hard-
ilulf rail, Half lliqililo.
. 33,252
Hardin 37,000
Assistants 3.252
Bulnneo 33,728
Divide that amount by 100, the
number of days of tho season, and
it will be seen that Mr. Hardin re
ceived for his service $37.28 per day.
But this is not all; a resolution of
the house provided that the clerk of
the house should remain over not
longer than five days, to finish up
Ins business. The code says he shall
conclude it in ten days after ad
journment of the session. The re
solution does not mention any pay
therefor, and tho code and consti
tution intend that ho shall have
none; but the treasurer grants Mr.
Hardin $350 therefor. Now, as a
matter of fact, Mr. Hardin’s servi
ces could be dispensed with two
days after tho session adjourns.
Again, if he is to have pay for re
maining after adjournment (which
is prohibited by tho constitution,
which limits his pay to so much per
session,) surely it could never be
tho intent of the law to give him in
dividually $70 per day for remain
ing, when lie is only allowed that
per day for himself and clerks. It
would seem that tho $37.28 per day
tor tho session would be sufficient
renumeration for ids staying over
and completing his work as pres
cribed by the code as already quot
ed. x"
Now, ns tho clerk’s having left
over $37.28 for himself out of tho
$70, I am warranted in saying that
that was never contemplated by
the law, nor is it party policy. Be
sides, it is known to many members
that business might have been ex
pedited in the last house lmd there
been more clerks. In many cases
members of committees had to act
as their own clerks, because there
were no otlior clerks to do it. I re
call tho agricultural committee’s
giving a cane to Mr. Upson, a mem
ber, for efficient services as clerk,
while Mark A. Hardin was pocket
ing $87.28 per day.
Those two gentlemen besides get
ting a magnificent pay for tho ses
sion, got $750 for services (?) after
adjournment, which latter pay has
no warrant in law. If they got the
some amount after the winter ad
journment, that makes .$1,500 per
year, and if that has been a custom,
likeTato’s vote, ever since the con
stitution of 1877, it follows that the
State lias been mulcted out of about
from $13,000 to $15,000 within the
last eight years.
When I ask«d Treasurer Harde
man if lie had examined the law as
to ins authority for paying this
gratuitously for remaining after the
adjournment, be said be had not, as
it was none of his business, for lie
had only to obey tho order of the
two branches of the assembly.
The defense I know is that mulct
ing is custom. That custom makes
law is a fad that sound sense and
honesty will some of these days
eradicate from politics and public
official action.
01<l Clothes,
Augusta Chronlclo.
Among the bills passed by the
last legislature, Itepresentative
Brandt’s bill to prevent the ini
portation of second-hand clothing
into the state of Georgia has at
tracted its share of comment in the
papers, and elicited no little curios
ity and inquiry among tho people.
In order that the terms of the bill
may be known to the public, we
publish its provisions as follows:
Starting as a preamble that the
practice of importing second-hand
or cast off clothing into Georgia for
sale has grown to such an extent as
to endanger the sanitary condition
of the state, it is declared (1) unlaw
ful to import into the state of Geor
gia for sale any second-hand or cast
off clothing; (2) it is declared un
lawful for any person to buy, barter
or receive for the purpose of selling,
any second-hand or cast off cloth
ing, unless it is accompanied by a
certificate from tho board of health
of the place from which such cleth-
ingmay have been shipped, that it
has been uroperly disinfected and
there is no danger of tho spread of
contagious diseases, and setting
forth tho character and number of
the garments embraced in tho cer
tificate and the date when they
were disinfected—said certificate to
ho placed on file in the clerk’s office
of the county where such garments
are to bo sold before they are offer
ed for sale.
A violation of this act is made a
misdemeanor, subjecting the of
fender to imprisonment in the
county jail for a term not less than
six months nor exceeding twelve.
Dawson Journal.
The description of the “snake
child,” which appeared in these col
umns ot week before last, and which
was copied from the Gwinnett
Herald, calls to the mind of tho
Journal a monstrosity of. a wire-
grass county, which will probably
bo interesting to our readers. To
the incredulous, to him who believes
nothing save the evidence of his
own eyes, we would say, don’t read
what follows. That it is absolutely,
unequivocally true does not admit
of even a dream of a shade of a
shadow of doubt; but to the person
who requires mathemical certainty
in everything we repeat, don’t road
this article.
There lives in the 1 Stli district of
that county a respectable and well-
to-do family, Windsor, by name,
consisting of father, mother and six
children. There is nothing remark
able or peculiar about the two old
people, their ways and habits con
forming to those of their neighbors.
Many years have elapsed since the
day when Mr. Windsor, in tho first
flush of young manhood, carried his
young and blushing bride to his
home, there to begin that long life
journey so fraught with happiness
or woe. At the same place has he
lived until now they stand almost
upon the brink of that narrow
stream which divides tire other
world from ours, their white locks
fanned by the breezes from the
bright beyond, awaiting tho sum
mons, “come over and join u
As we have stated Mr. and Mrs.
Windsor have six children. It is
our purpose in this article to speak
of the third, now about thirty-three
years old. From its head to its
shoulders, including its arms, it is
apparently a perfectly formed hu
man being? From its shoulders
down it is as perfectly formed an al
ligator as ever disported itself in the
waters of southern Florida. About
one-third of the distance from the
shoulders (where the human ends
and the alligator begins) to the end
of the tail are tho two feet which
belong to the saurian tribe, and
which the monster, half man, half
alligator, uses in connection with
his hands for locomotion. It can
not talk, only giving vent occasion
ally to a half grunt, half howl, and
has probably the intelligence of a
smart setter dog. It follows Mr.
Windsor around the place just as a
dog would, going to the fields and
sleeping in the sunshine while Mr.
Windsor is engaged in his farm
work. It has true ’gator instinct
for water, and an unconquerable
aversion to dogs of every kind. It
swims like a fish, and has been
known to stay under the water foi*
several minutes at a time. Taken
altogether, we do not hesitate to
pronounce this one, of the most re
markable freaks in existence. Mr.
Windsor has had offers of large
sums of money for it for show pur
poses, but has uniformly declined
them.
After reading tho above our read
ers cannot help exclaiming, as we
did when first we saw this mon
strosity, “How wonderful are thy
ways, O, Nature!”

He Hail No Wife anil Ciillilren.
Louisville News.
Monday night Judge Twiggs, in
making his speech to the jury in
tho Paradise case, commenced to
make a strong appeal to the tender
hearts of that noble body, Ho said
it would be cruel to convict the de
fendant, that it would subject him
to infamy and disgrace, and that it
would bo a great and distressing
hardship upon his wife and chil
dren, it would leave them helpless,
with no one to love or protect them.
But just at this point the force of
his eloquence and tender appeal
was entirely destroyed by a sugges
tion from associate counsel that the
defendant had no wife. The reve
lation had a dampening effect upon
the eloquent counsel, but he soon
rallied, and said that accounted for
tho young man’s troubles—that if
he had had a wife lie would not be
in that fix.

Memphis, Tenn.,Oct. 28.—Whore
the millions of squirrels ever came
from, or what extent of country
ever produced so many, is the ques
tion now being discussed by tho
citizens of the upper end of Desota
county Mississippi, and those living
in the lower edge of Crittenden
county and north part of Lee coun
ty, Arkansas. They are emigrat
ing, but for what purpose has not
yet been decided, for the country
they are leaving, which is on the
east bank of the Mississippi river,
seems to be well supplied with the
nuts they most delight to crack
Perhaps they are hunting higher
land, as the direction they are tak
ing would seem to indicate such a
purpose. The memory of past over
flows of the Mississippi bottoms,
and the trouble of subsisting during
high water, must be anything but
pleasant even to squirrels. They
seem to have crossed, and are still
crossing, the Mississippi between
Norfolk landing, about twenty-five
miles below Memphis, and Desoto
Front, Miss., which is only five
miles soutli of this city. They are
going over to the Arkansas side of
the river, and making for Crawley’s
ridge. Tho inhabitants of that sec
tion are killing them by the bun
dreds with sticks. As the squirrels
hayc lost all fear of man, a gun
not needed, and would he In the
way, in several instances they have
attacked hunters. The number is
beyond all calculation, and pot bun
tera are traveling with them in
wagons slaughtering and then driv
ing to the nearest depot and ship
ping them to Memphis and othe
markets. Last Saturday Dr. Peters,
who resides in Lee county, Arkan
sas, killed thirty-eight around ids
wood-pilo witli tv stick.
A similar emigration of squirrels
occurred in 1872; they crossed the
Mississippi river from tho east
bank, or Mississippi, side, over
tho Arkansas side, at or about tho
same point. Skidmon at that time
killed thousands while swimming
the river.

A dispatch from New Orleans
of Oct. 23d, says: The schooner,
A.lice Montgomery, Capt. Lavender,
master, from the Kennebec river,
Me., with a cargo of ice, arrived at
her wharf to-day. The captain re
ports that on Oct. 19, when about 10
miles off Rebecca shoals, in the
Gulf of Mexico, about 400 miles
from the mouth of the river, he en
countered vast quantities of float
ing fish, dead and dying. They em
braced a great variety, many kinds
being unknown to him, and they
xtended t.s far as the eye could
reach. The sea was streaked with
yellow, oily substance, and he
sailed through that strange com
bination of yellow water and dead
fish for 20 miles. He had no bad
weather, and generally fair winds
ifter entering tho Gulf. This is not’
the first time such a phenomenon
has been encountered in these
waters, and it has been attributed
to the eruption of matter and pois
onous gases from submerged volca
noes. The appearance of unusual
arieties of fish from the deep sea
would seem to strengthen this
theory.
A Negro Frcnrhcr Murilcrs Ills Child.
A special to the Atlanta Constitu
tion from Savannah of Oct. 25, says:
News has been received here from
Madison county, Fla., that a negro
preacher, named Alfred Coffee, liv
ing eight miles north of Madison,
beat one of his children—a boy
thirteen years old—to death for
selling three pounds of cotton to a
country store. A post mortem was
hold and the boy’s skull was found
to be fractured and his flesh beat to
x jelly. He had been beaten with a
low line, and a large peacli switch,
half an inch in diameter at the large
end, worn out to about eighteen
nches in length. A brushbroom,
used for sweeping the yard, was
next worn out, and the last used
was a piece of plank four feet long,
five inches wide, and a half inch
thick, which was broken into frag
ments, the boy dying in a few min
utes after the last lick was struck.
The screams of tho child and the
sound of the blows were heard for a
mile, and, though several negro
men saw the whole affair, nothing
was done to try to stop the villian.
Coffee is now confined in the jail
and heavily ironed, as the jail is
very insecure. Coffee says he whip
ped the child to train him to be
honest and not steal again. He
came near beating his wife to death
last year.

A New York special says: Charles
Gustav Blum is tho son of tho sec-
rotary of tho royal agricultural de
partment ot Sweden. He was born
28 years ago, and when he was 17
years old ho became a member of
his father’s regiment, the Royal
Wernland. At 19 Do graduated
from tho Stockholm military acad
emy. Then ho resigned from tho
service, studied at tho Stockholm
polytechnic and entered mercantile
life. He was to marry a wealthy
young woman, but sho died only tv
few days before tho time sot lor tho
wedding. This made him reckless
and unsettled and ho begun to
roam. In 1881 ho came to this
country and traveled until ids mon
ey was gone, when ho got employ
ment in tho Grant locomotive
works in Patterson, N. J. 11 in
mother’s death called him home,
hut lie stayed only a few months,
and in 1883 ho started for America.
After being wrecked he reached
bore, but was unable to got employ
ment. As a last resort ho enlisted
in tho United States army at Fort
Hamilton, llo showed such ability
that he was soon promoted to bo
corporal. He was about to be ad
vanced to a sergoantcy, when news
came of the dtmth of his grand
mother, a Swedish baroness, who
leaves him 39,000 crowns, over
$103,000. Money was sent from
Sweden. A lawyer put tho facts
before Maj. Randolph, who recom
mended his discharge, and Col.
John Hamilton indorsed tho appli-
cation. Within a few days ho was
free, and last week he sailed for
