by Hank officers. It is my duty to ex

officers have taken the oath prescribed by
the statute. If they have not, it is then
my duty to enforce the penalty prescribed
for non compliance with the law. When

of 1857, since lst January, 1859, or that

proceeding be instituted under the act of
the llitli of Dec. 1857, it would then be
come the duty of the court to construe the
statute, and say whether the proof showed
it had been violated.
As a personal friend however, and not
as a public officer, I will give you my o-
pinion on the two pom's mentioned in
your letter, which is not designed for pub
lication, but which you are at liberty to
show to such friends as arc interested, pro
vided you do it in such manner, that the
opinion shall not become the subject of
newspaper comment.
Your first question is, “can a Bank
purchase exchange on New York, for in
stance, at a greater rate than seven per
cei t." As for example you say a sight
hill on New York is usually taken at from
onc-fourtli to three-eights off which is a-
liout what it would cost, to bring the a-
mbunt of the bill from New York to this
place.
To this I reply that in my opinion the
object of the act of 1857 was to prevent
the Ranks from taking usurious interest
under the pretext of buying and selling
exchange, and not to cripple them in the
t a isactiou of ordinary legitimate banking
business. It is said, the form of a bill of
exchange and caarge of premium &c. was tba t tbc Rank of which thev arc officers,
often resorted to in transactions intended has not by itsclf ; its 0 ffi ccrs ' 0r agents, in

of the Rank, on the 1st day of January,
and shall further swear that they have not
violated thc statute of 1857, (at any time)
it may not be possible for some of them
ever to make their return, as it is proba
ble some of them have already violated the
statute of 1857.
My oliject is to act upon a reasonable
construction of the Act of 1S58, such con
struction as will enable every Rank officer
in Georgia, who is willing to obey the Act
of 1857, rather than pay the penalties of
the Act of 1859, to make the return re
quired.
1 presume it was not the .intention of the
Legislature, to require impassibilities un
der penalties.
I suppose, therefore, it was the inten
tion to require of Rank officers wlto had
violated the Act of 1857, to pay heavier
penalties if the}' again violated it. 1 shall
i therefore act upon thc construction of the
statute which wiil allow to every Rank an
opportunity in future, to obey the law,
and in case of refusal to do so, I shall
use all the |>o wer vested in me by the con
stitution and laws of this State, to enforce
obedience. I shall hold that a return made
in the following form is a compliance witli
the statute:

sum which it would cost him to get his Q f ^
money from New York. This, in my o- i p ro bably, I have gone more into details
belonging to the saino class. With how
much regard for the truth, the editor of
the “ American,” stated that the facts as
charged by thc “ Courier,” “ absolutely
exist,” 1 leave the public to judge, when
the facts as they do exist, are made known.
The editor, when he made thc charge,
stated that he had in possession, a copy
of a letter, written by me in reply to “one
from a Bank Officer,” who asked my o-
pinion on two points, growing out of the
Bank act of 1857 and 1858, that thc letter
was private, and confidential, Ac. The
editor, doubtless refers to a letter written
by me, to Col. Solomon Cohen, of Savan
nah, who was elected by the Legislature,
to the position of Director, in the Bank of
the State, to represent the State's Stock,
in that Rank. Col. Cohen, is a gentle
man of high character, and has been for
years, my personal friend There were
some doubts on his mind, as to the true
construction of the acts of 1857 and 1858.
And as the State’s Director in thc Bank of
tiie State, lie asked my opinion as to the
true construction of these acts, on the two
points discussed in thc letter, which I
wrote in reply. When I received Col.
Cohen’s letter, courtesy as well as friend
ship, existing between us, required that I
should reply to it I did not however
consider, that it was strictly a part of my
official duty, to put a construction upon
these statutes. It was only my duty to
sec that they were obeyed, and that the
returns sent by the Bank officers to the
Executive Department, conformed to the
law. The Executive has not jurisdiction
to determine whether the returns, as made
by thc Bank officers arc true. The stat
ute prescribes the penalty in case they are
false, and gives thc Courts jurisdiction of
the case, and it is the dut y of courts, when
a proper case is made to construe the stat-
him the title of honest, and long divided
j even the Opposition itself on the policy of
i opposing his re-election! Such injustice

[From the Macon Journal A Messenger.]
Letter From John W. Lewis.
Atlanta, Ga., August 30, 1859.
Meesrs. Editors—My attention has been
called to a communication over thc signa
ture of “ Cherokee,” in which my conduct
as Superintendent of thc Western and At
lantic Railroad, is severely criticised, and
my integrity impugned, in regard to dis
criminating charges upon pig iron.
I ask it as a matter of justice to myself,
that you will publish thc following state
ment of facts, -that the public may sec
whether or not I have acted correctly.
The tariff rates of Freight of November
11, 1852, under Mr. Wadley’s advice, was
$3 2-5 per ton of2000Ibs. through to Chat
tanooga from Atlanta. Thc tariff of Su
perintendent Yonge, of Sept 1st, 1853,
was $3 25 per ton of Georgia production
through from Atlanta to Chattanooga.—
The tariff of Mr. J. F. Cooper, of August
lst, 1854, was §3 50.
The tariff made by Executive order of
Gov. Johnson, of June 27th, 1850, on pig
iron of Georgia manufacture and produc
tion, was $2 50 per ton.
On 30th of June, 1858, under my ad
vice, the rates of a great many heavy com
modities, having much weight and but
little money in them, were reduced, many
to the amount of thirty three per cent.—
Stone coal was included in this reduction
—an article which I do not use in making
iron.
nia iron could be shipped from Pittsburg
to Chattanooga at but little more than we
had been charged to tiiis point; and that,
although all iron paid thc same on thc
State Road, it did not aid us. I stated
that your predecessor thought it ought to
be reduced.
Your persevering reply was, that, whilst
you admitted it was too high, you would
not alter it, because you were a shipper
of iron, and personally interested. If it
is ever reduced, it must be done by the
Legislature—you would not touch it.
To this I took the liberty to say, that
there were five or six furnaces besides
yoifrs, submitting to the wrong as well as
thc Rolling Mill, and the true’ rule of ad
ministration would be, to do what was
right, as if you were not concerned. We
ought not to be prejudiced by your inter
ested condition.
You adhered to your opinion, until the
Legislature, at last session, by law, requir
ed a reduction on all iron, product of Ga.
manufacture. It was then reduced accor
ding to the present tariff. And with all
this reduction, I can still ship iron cheap
er over the Georgia road, or the Atlanta
and West Point Road, or thc Montgome
ry and West Point Road, or Macon and
Columbus road, at a cheaper rate than on
thc State road.
I remain very respectfully,
Your obedient servant,
MARK A. COOPER.
A door ajar near the dance-hall reveal
ed invitingly a glimpse of a comfortable
bed, of which he took possession with a
prospect of an undisturbed “ snooze.”
It so hapencJ, howbeit, that this was
the ladies withdrawing room, and no soon
er had he closed his eyes than a pair of
blooming damscLs came in from the hall,
and liegan adjusting their disordered ring
lets, the dim light of the tallow candle not
disclosing the tenant of the bed. The girls
had tongues, like most of their sex which
ran on this wise:
“ What a nice dance we’re having!—
Have you heard anybody say anything a-
bout me, Jane?”
“La, yes, Sally! Jim Brown says he I
never see you look so handsome as you
do to-night. Have you heard anybody
sav anything about me?”
“ About you! why, sartin ; I heard Joe
Flint tell Sam Jones that you was the
prettiest dressed girl in thc room.”
Whereupon the dear things chuckled,
“ fixed up” a little more, and made off to
wards the ball room. They had hardly
reached thc door when our half-conscious
friend raised himself upon his elbow, and
quite intelligibly, though slowly inquired:
“ Ha’ you heard ant-body say anything
about me, girls ?”
“ Phansy their pheelinks,” at that
juncture! They fled with an explosive
scream.
