BTAflltMAS’S DISH OF BOtP.
The Able Betterments Lobbyist Averse
To the Tureen.
Atlanta, Nov. 16.—[Special.]—Tho
people of Georgia are to be congratulated
that whatever may have been the short
comings cf tho resent distinguished gen
era! assembly nothing was yielded to the
rapacious and insatiate demands of the
leasees for betterments. Tiro plan of at
tack as inaugurated and executed by
truck have been the successive stages
a continuous policy leading toward a set
tlement. Bismarck’s eckcmo re-
Btores Russia’s dominance in
Bulgaria; Prussia, in return,
recognizing as definite Austria « posses
sion of Bosnia and Herzegovina Since
this proposal was communicated to I re
nder Crispi, tire latter tas intimated to
Prince Bismarck that the sanction of
Italy might depend upon the cession of
Trentino bv Austria. When Count Kr.l-
noky left Frit-derichmiUc nothing was
settled. The Austrian minister held that
the sacrifice of Trentino was impossible,
lie considered the possession of Bosnia
as already definite, as it could only be
abandoned after n crushing defeat.
FERDINAND LEFT TO IIIS FATE.
The Innsbruck interview brought tho
negotiations to n climax. The Emperor
Francis Joseph fonsented to leave Prince
Ferdinand to hit fate and said lie would
not oppose a Kwsian candidate provided
be was elected under tho conditions of
tho Berlin t ratty. XIo practically ac
corded I he czar) n freo hand ia Bulgaria
abort of Russian occupation, lie de
clined to consider the question of Tren
tino. Count Herbert Bismarck went to
Potsdam to-niffht to loam the details of
tho interview from tho emperor.
Tfca portc is ready as soon as it learns
that Austria and Russia have accepted
Bismarck's mediation to send a circular
loiter to the powers denouncing the il
legality of the present government of
Bulgaria. Signor Crispi, the Italian
prime minister, is expected here next
week. The press demand Trentino as
the prlco of Italy’s adhesion.
Prince Bismarck’s re-entrnneo into tho
Reichstag, it is reported, will bo post-
poned until he is abl© to raise the curtain
and disclose tho situation. Tho foreign
office is entirely sanguine that tho chan-
I roller will soon be in a position to dc-
tcribe tbo success of lib diplomacy nnd
jmy a tribute to the wisdom and energy
of the kaiser. Count Kalnoky submitted
to Bismarck with reluctance.
CALLXD A ROTTEN COUTROMISE.
A*singular expression of discontent
appears in tho Pcsther-Lloyd, tho ncog
nized organ of both the Vienna foreign
office and tbc Hungarian military.
Thi* journal calls tho junding nrrangf •
went* nn enforced, rotten compromise,
which, it says, may prove won,5 than an
enforced war. The article concludes
with the hope that tho German policy
will not turn outn Machiatcllisn policy,
nnd the the issue of tho imperial meeting
at Innsbruck will probably give renewed
sanction to tbo status quo. Before going
to Innsbruck, the Emperor Francis
Joseph, alter consulting with Count
Kalnoky took the ndvico of tliat veteran
irtatevman, Count Andrassy. Theouiperor
wont to Andmasy’s bouse nnd conferred
with him three hours. If Kalnoky keeps
faith with Bismarck theattitud- of th -
Vienna cabinet toward Bulgaria must
change.
Tito Bulgarian agent at Berlin has
bean sc-mi-oflicially recognized. Tho
Lander bank lias negotiated a now llul-
Kurian loan, and the Austrian consul at
Sofia is tho [confidante and advisor of
Prince Ferdinand. Tt*o lierraan consul,
•m tlio other hand, did not even Falun-
Ferdinand on meeting him in the street,
and completely ignores him *» the h&d
of tho government. The explosion of tho
Pesther-Lloyd probably relieves Austrian
*’Tkaa ***** without having any sig-
ultcxct bumarck ili-mwd.
Count Herbert Bismarck’s action In
refraining from visiting Count Tnafe
when passing through Vienna, U se
verely commented upon In official circles
«s an ik-bred net, showing a lack of
courtesy due tho Austrian premier. Bis
marck resent* Tape’s tacit encourage
ment of the czech movement combined
with his penitent inertia regarding the
op(M*ition to the spread of German influ-
ence. Nothing justifies Count Herberts
ostentatious ignoring of Count Toafe.

indications are not lacking that the at

and efficiency.

Sir. Calhoun states that tho lessees will

Nashville, N*v. 18.—The national
pri--on congress was opened here to-night,
nnd Hen. Rutherford 13. Hayes delivered
an address. He opened with a reviow of
the ancient and modern methods of deal
ing with tbo criminal classes, compared
one with the other, and congratulated
his bearers that the brutal penalties of
former years have been abolished sav
in ono email ctnte. Prisons epee lolly for
women were highly commended.
O il AcLtS TO PROOEESH.
Hares continued thus:
“Among the obstacles to progr

and to tho extent that it is found it
stands in the way of all reforms looking
to the amelioration of the condition of

toward convicts Is exeiteef by all un
reasonable hindrance to their speedy
trial and conviction.
HARD TO CONVICT CRIMINALS.
No well informed man can fail to see
that such otatoclcs do in fact exist in
the criminal procedure of almost every
state. Tbo technical rules in criminal
cases relating to juries, to indictments,
to evidence and to the rehearing of cases
after judgment tend to shield tno guilty
and to defeat what Governor
Seymour calls tho “clear, strong and

SLOW JUSTICE BEGETS MOB LAW,
Tlio lack of proper cotifidenco in
the fairness of tho justice of criminal
trials begets crime. It emboldens the
criminal classes and leads to lawless
violence and nn endless list of other
calamities. If justice fails in the courts
public sentiment will justify, or least
io.crate mob and lynch law. Tho dolays
in criminal proceedings in these days
when wealth has such powar, offer temp-
tnt.on to bribe giving uim bribe taking,
ami thus the administration of justice is
corrupted nnd loft.es public icsjicct. It is

AIM IN COM let TREATMENT.
Tlic chief aim in the treatment of con-

avowed enemy—tbo ctimiuaL Three
who cannot be rccliimed should rentaiu
under their K'titence of couvictioo, w here
they cun aupiiort thems«‘ivos by labor
ami do no harm to speiety. Some wu
know can be rerdaiuieti, and will lead
honest lives. Thrwe w iio till our prisons
un.l rerormatorits are cither accidental
criminuls % or incipient criminal", who
break the law from sumo thought-
le*s impulse or from drink.
This is especially truo of tlio young

I Al>>R THE CONVICT’S HOPE.
It must never bo forgotten tliat tlie
eacential. indispensable factor in tlie re
form of the criminal Ls labor. As to its
ap;4icaticn in prison, so many
prejudices and piewmiaty Interesta
are touched or supposed to he touclied
by it. timt question has interfered disas
trously with w holesome prison discipline
and iti some cases has been the source of
preat mischief. ^ Ikit UDcursicn and ex
subject we Imve hutned by experience
that education, training in correct habits
of mind and body and character is our
best reliance for reclaiming the fallen.
