The Georgia code, section 1312, provides that the Governor shall notify the electors to moot at tho capitol on the first Monday in December,to to lie ready on Wednesday follow ing to cast their vote. This the Governor has done bqt the electors have not met to-day or voted ,und it is thought by leading officials and lawyers here that they have no right to meet and vote next Wednesday.

In all the relations of life, ho ever maintained a pure and spotless char acter, he was emphatically speaking, a good, a true and-an honest man. Judge Johnson was a man wo had (ill teamed to love and to honor for his manly virtues and sterling integ rity. In his death Washington Ccu ity has lost one, who was ulway reudy to aid every movement for the advancement of its best interests.
