The Annual Reports of the Officers ol’tbe
Western Sc Atlantic Railroad.
An absence for several days ot the past week,
and it press of business since then, have-prevent
ed us from noticing these important reports—
important, more than any other of the reports of
the railroad enterprizes of our State, to our read
ers, for the reason that the Road itself is the pro
perty of the State, in which every tax-payer
thereof lias an individual interest. We have
ever looked, therefore, to the annual reports of
the .Superintendent and other officers ot this
great Stale enterprise with interest, aud for infor
mal ion to spread before our readers. Usually,
we have published the reports in fall, but such
now is the pressure upon our columns and upon
our time, that we are not able to do so.
The pamphlet report btlcre us embraces, first,
the report of the Road Master, Mr. M. H. Dooly,
on the road bed and superstructure, the bridges,
culverts, depots, station houses, and wuter sta
tions of the road; second, the report ot the Su
perintendent of the car factory, Mr. W. G.
Gratnbiing; third, the report of Mr. John II.
Flynn, Master ol Machinery, giving the name or
number ol each engine; when put on the road ;
by whom built; its service, character, present
condition, cost of repairs, number of miles it has
ruu to each cord of wood, gallon ot oil, pound
of tallow and waste; and the cars hauled during
the year; fourth, the reports of the General
Freight Agent, Mr. R. A. BacOD, showing the
gross freight earuings ot the road, with the
hi....iints collected lrom the different agents and
connecting railroads, together with the tonnage
and points of shipment of tlio various articles of
freight transported over it, during the year;
fifth, the statement of the General Ticket Agent,
Mr. Yv. it. Webster, showing the amount of pas
senger receipts during the year; seventh, the state
ment of the General Book-Keeper, Air. Owen
Lynch, showing the moutlily gross earnings of the
road, its expenses and expenditures ; and neve nth,
the report of the Master ot Transportation, John
B. Reck, Esq. All these reports, made to the
Superintendent, are clear, concise, and satisfac
tory, reflecting credit upon the officers that
have made them. Especially is this credit due
to the energetic anil efficient Master of Trans
portation, J. B. Peck, Esq., whose report era-
braces every material lacl connected with the
operations or the Road during the past year. It
shows that the receipts of the road for the year
ending Sept. 30, were $1,273,101.86. Working
expenses for iim same time, $687,462.25, leaving
excess of receipts over working expenses, $586,-
721)13. Ratio of expenses to receipts, 54 per cent.
The disbursements lor extraordinary expenses,
$131,115 82. I11 addition to earuings shown in
above statement, the road has transported free
of charge, donations to the destitute, the freight
ot which would have amounted, at the regular
charges, to $16,210.55.
So much for these reports made to the’Super
intendent by his subordinates in office, than
whom more efficient and reliable gentlemen ex
perienced in railroad service cannot be found
elsewhere. Especially is this compliment due
to the Master ot Transportation, J. B. Peck,
Esq , to whose efficiency, under the direction ot
the Superintendent, and to whose energy the
Road is largely indebted for its present pros
perity. .
Following the report of the Master of Trans
portation, comes the reports ot the very efficient
Auditor, K. C. Robson, Esq., and Treasurer,
W. W. Clayton, Esq. From the latter we make
tin? billowing extract, being a statement of re
ceipts and disbursements tor the fiscal year euil-

We regret that we have not space for the Su
perintendent's report in full, embracing as it
does much valuable information. We make,
however, some interesting extracts from it which
must suffice tor the present.

onerous and enormous. We have paid out tor

however, that the appeal made by- the persecu

The Daily Tunes, of this morning, is clad jD

rest. for ti 10 p...pose of “ preserving the public
pettee! ’ I executed a brilliant “flank move
ment,” avoided the sergeant and three men, who
were sent to my office to arrest me, took a car-
riage and proceeded directly to the headquarters
of General Gillem, and reported myself at
his service. I was there informed that I
would be required to keep the peace
in regard to evtrybody for twelve months, and
not to write anything “libellous” against any
oue for the same period of time—that a bond in
the penal sum of one thousand dollars, with a
sufficient surety, would be accepted, and in de
fault of which, I would be again imprisoned! I
have publicly, privately, persistently, aud uni
formly, proclaimed my purpose not to commit a
breach ol the peace, and I hare not done so! I
haye never designed, nor have I threatened, to
“disturb the peace” iu any portion of the 4tb
Military District, and yet I am required to give
a bond that I will not do so anywhere, during the
next twelve months! So also in regard to wri
ting libellous articles. I am no libeller. 1 have
never libelled Gen. Ord, or his creatures ! I main
tain that I have penned no libel; aud it I had
done so iu the past, or should do so in the fpture,
I contend that 'he Military Commander of this
District, has no right to arrest or punish me for
it! 1 submit that it is not now, and never was, tlie
province of any Military Commander, to say
wlicthei nny publication is libellous, assume to
arrest, and then try, and punibh by a military tri
bunal. Such an assumption of power, strikes
down, at a single blow, every bulwark of free
dom. and destroys forever, that great “palladium
ol civil liberty”—the Public Press 1
Being powerless to resist the bayonets of Gen.
Ord, I gave the required bond, in preference to
again becoming the enforced recipient ot the
boundless hospitalities of bis elegaut and spa
cious Hotel, aud Mr. Charles Pqiue was offered,
aud accepted as my surety.
As anything not complimentary, or agreeable,
to military commanders, loyal leagues, radical
legislators and officials, may, aud probably will,
be pronounced “ libelous,” and my bond declared
forleited, I shall be compelled, by tlie power of
tlie bayonet, to “ speak with bated breath,” and,
when noticing public functionaries, I shall be
compelled to sing nothing but “ hymns of loftiest
praise!" Whether those hymns be chanted in
“florid prose,” or sung in “ honied lies of rhyme,”
will, I suppose, be a matter ot small moment.—
If a sufficient amount of laudation, adulation,
and fu^orne praise, is uttered, I presume the
happy recipients will care very little for either
tune or metre.
I do not regard Gen. Ord as the Emperor of
this country, and as 1 believe that President
Johnson, and Gen. U. S. Grant are his official
superiors, I shall apply to them for relief and re
dress. It they cannot, or will not, strike troin
my limbs the fetters which have been placed
upon them by the Commander of this Military
D strict—if they cannot, or will not, remove the
shackles which lie has imposed on The Times,
then the liberty ot the press, the most cherished
right of a free people, must be classed with
those things which “ perished in the using.”—
Very respectfully. W. H. McCardle.

Wind
Straw* Slioxv Which Way* the
Blows.
Babe-Ball Playing has become a national
pastime. There is scarcely now a village in the
Union that docs not have its clubs, while the
towns and cities from Maine to Texas, in Cali
fornia and Oregon, and throughout the Great
West, have rival clubs numbering thousands
upon thousands of legal voters in the aggregate
of their memberships. Quite recently the Na
tional Convention of Base-Ball Players assem
bled in Philadelphia. Iu that Convention were
delegates from the States of Massachusetts, Con
necticut, New York, New Jersey 7 , Pennsylvania,
Delaware, Maryland, District ol Columbia, Ohio,
Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin, Missouri, Kansas,
and Oregon. Among the reeolutious introduced
and adopted by the Convention was one of sig
nificant political importance, to wit: “ That no
club composed of persons ot color, or having in
its membership persons of color, shall be admtt-
ted into the National Association.” It is stated
that the adoption of this resolution was received
with -“great applause by the delegates.” Says
the National Intelligencer, in commenting upon
this significant incident: “ They,” the delegates
to the Convention, “are the representatives of the
whole body of players of the popular national
game in States which together give 171 elec
toral votes, and in every one of which, where
elections have recently been held, negro suffrage
and negro equality have been scouted. We have
no doubt that the delegates to the National Base
Ball Convention have, in the adoption ot this
resolution, fairly and truthfully represented the
sentiments ot their constituents, but the corres
pondent of the New York Tribune calls their ac
tion “selfish and cowardly,” aud we would not
be surprised to find the elegant Mr. Sumner, or
“Kidnapper Drake,” or Impeacher Ashley 7 , or
Lodbrog Logan, or some of that ilk bringing
forward in Congress a bill to suppress the game
of base ball by military interference, as a punish
ment of the conduct of the National Conven
tion of Base Ball Players.”
“ Straws show which way the wind blows.”
We doubt not that this rejection of negro clubs
iuto the National Association of Base Ball Play
ers, will be responded to'most heartily by the
membership all over the land, and that it is but
another evidence of that overwhelmingly popu
lar sentiment, growing stronger every day, that
this is a white man’s government, and must be
so maintained.
Senator ’Wilson's Bill ou the Ratification
Vote.
It seems from the proceedings of the United
States Senate ot the 10th instant, that Senator
Wilson is disposed to let sleep upon the table,
his bill to change the mode of ratifying the seve
ral Constitutions that may be trained for the
several Southern Stales, by the so-called State
Conventions assembled to carry out the odious
provisions of the Sherm3n-Shellabarger recon
struction bills. Be this however as it may, the
white race of the South must prepare to protect
itsclt against negro suffrage which is none other
than negro supremacy, aud that it will, we have
no doubt. Should the law upon the question of
ratification remain as it is, we leel satisfied that
Georgia will assert most effectually the suprema
done before aud during the war; and no matter j cy ot ttie whites within her borders, by rejecting
as

matter. It affects the whole country, and per
haps distant generations. My views on that sub
ject are decided, and, I suppose, are well known
in your county.
As to “ Relief ”—I am sorry that this question
has come np. The Conveution will have no
more power over it than an ordinary legislature,
for the Constitution of the United States re
strains one as much as the other. But the ques
tion has been raised and I shall meet it.
I have looked anxiously for some constitu
tional plan by which the debtor can be relieved
and justice can be done the creditor, and have
found none but the Bankrupt Law. If the ex
emption under that is too small, Congress might
be urged to enlarge it, but no other help do I
see that can be given by law. The mildest form
of relief—the stay law—is held by most ot our
jurists to be unconstitutional, and bo has been
pronounced by Chief Justice Chase at Raleigh.
How, then, can broader measures stand the test?
The advocates of relief in Georgia have pro
posed no distinct plan. -This shows that they
leel the difficulties of the case. I cannot see
how you preserve the “ obligation ol contracts,”
when you pass laws to prevent the creditor from
getting what he contracted for.
in my reeungs, ana in advice to friends and
client?, I am for compromise, forbearance and
concession, according to the moral equities of
each particular case. But these equities are not
definable or enforceable by law. Practically_
three-fourths of the debts of the country will be
lost, from the inability of the debtors. Is it not
enough for creditors to lose their slaves tmd the
depreciation of other property to the same ex«
tent as other men, and three-fourths of their
debts besides? And is it just to impose on
them also the loss of such debts as the debtors
are able to pay ?—for only such can be collected
under our present laws.
When the debtor is overwhelmed, the Bank
rupt law will disencumber him for the future.—
Some amendment ought to be made to this law
For instance, its relief ought not to be withheld
from fiduciary debtors—guardians, &c., where
their inability to respond arises from emancipa
tion ; and it we are represented in Congress,
this, with other improvements, will soon come.
These are very hard cases on both sides. Ma
ny excellent people will be reduced, if debts are
collected, and many, also, if debts are not col
lected. There are maDy poor creditors as well
as poor debtors. Between these unfortunate
classes, both deserving sympathy, I see no course
for the government but an inflexible adherence
to the Constitution. Past deflections make it
more necessary to “strengthen the things that
remain.”
Think of this:—that if Georgia should try
some such scheme as enlarging the exemption,
and our courts should otistain it, then Northern
creditors (aud Southern too) would induce Con
gress to allow all creditors to force their debtors
into bankruptcy, where they would get only the
moderate exemption allowed there. In truth,
much of this hope of relief is stimulated by am
bitious men, who are deceiving the people with
promises that never can be fulfilled, well know
ing that the judiciary wili overturn their work.
These are my views. I do not conceal them.
If any of my friends in Oglethorpe choose to
oppose me for honestly entertaining them, and
Irankly expressing them, I shall regret it on their
account as much as on my own. When good
men are deluded into the support ot so extrava
gant a heresy as repudiation, they are laying up a
cause of future mortification and repentance.
Convince me that these views are wrong, and I
will instantly renounce them. Until so con
vinced, they will govern my conduct
I desire that sound men shall be in the Con

Savannah, Dec. 15.—C. H. Hopkins, Jr., and
Robt. Hopkins, the son and - nephew of CoL C
H. Hopkins, Ass’t InL Rev., were arrested yes
terday for an assault with intent to murder John
E. Hayes, editor of tlie Republican. They were
released ou baii last evening, but were arrested
to-day and lodged in jail, to await the result of
Mr. Hayes’ injuries. They walked into the office,
aud one of them shook hands with Mr. Hayes,
and at the same time beat him with a loaded
whip. He was alone at the time. The cause is
supposed to have been on account ofaneditoriB
on the taking of the test oaths. These men are
Union men, so-called, and the person to whom
the editorial is supposed to have alluded is a
radical member of the Convention. The assault
lias created intense excitement, aDd its authors
are denounced by the whole community.

Atlanta, Ga., Dec. 16th, 1867.
Doctor (?) Bard’s paper of yesterday (the Sab
bath) copies a scurrilous article from the Na
tional Republican, a negro-howling sheet pub
lished at Augusta, which questions, in very
questionable style, the veracity of “Cip Kenny.”
That the Doctor should ventilate such stuff is
by no means surprising to the large number of
gentlemen in Atlanta, and elsewhere, who know
his tactics. But I shall let him pass tor the pre
sent, promising very soon to enlighten the pub
lic on certain acts of his, which not even a “Ten
Dollar Bill” shall deter me lrom publishing.
The National Republican says, “ Blodgett ex
erted his influence for the President elect—Par
rott.” Nobody denies it.* The fact is, Blodgett
did not relish being made to “renounce his aspi
rations” for the Presidency of the “swindle”
(that’s what the delegate lrom Stewart calls it)
in favor of Dunning. It was, therefore, very
natural for him to vent his spleen in the support
of Parrott.
“ Cip ” is accused of having “ falsified the re
cord" of the Conveution. Precisely. It was
necessary to do so, in many instances, in order
to teU the trutK. Now, as to whether it was Par
rottor Blodgett that “smelt” the Darkie who
claimed to be Dr. Christian’s representative, is a
matter of indifference. That “ Sambo ” was
melt by the presiding officer is the gist of the
thing. Yet, for the life of me, I cannot imagine
what actuated Blodgett to smell him, association
with gentlemen of color having so perverted the
olfactory lunction as to utterly destroy his appre
ciation of the disfinfaive odor.
It is further charged that “Cip Kenny, the
sapient correspondent of the Macon Journal and
Messenger is either a knave or an ass.” Now
it “Cip” be a knave he is certainly not an accom
plished one, or as sure as 'gun is iron” he would
occupy a prominent “posish” in ihe swiuale de

Were he even an “ass,” he might still have been
a valuable acquisition to the Menagarie for Zo

Court knows itself, “Cip Kenny” is neither

no doubt an honest man would locate him just
between the two.
There is an animal occupying a stall in the
donkey quarter of Pope’s Menagarie which is
considered & rare specimen ot the asinine genus.
This beast has an extra stripe on the rump, with
the reasonable’prospect, if the devil gets his due,
ot many more across the shoulders. Now it is a
curious fact, that a weight hung to the end ot a
donkey’s tail is a most effective prophylactic
against brav ing. This accounts lor the brick-bat

low. The greatest possible misfortune that could
betal the Menagarie would be the dropping of

Sherman argued for the repeal, maintaining

on the ground that should the tax’ultimately be

Heller— Governor Brown’* Letter.
I do not propose to review the extraordinary
letter pi Governor Brown to President Parrott.
Allow me, however, space to make one or two
suggestions. In liis letter I find the following
paragraph:
“In one class of cases, I would make the dental
of jurisdiction perpetual. I refer to notes given
for slaves. A sold 13 a slave in 1860 for $1,000
and took his note. In 18G5 the Government
look the slave from B, and made him free. If A
had kept him, the Government would have done
the same A has lost nothing but the hire of
the slave for iln.- time B held him. The equities
ot the case require that A give up B’s note, aud
tliat B pay him hire fur the time he used the
slave.”
Instead of B giving his note, suppose at the
time of purchase (as was true iu many cases) he
paid the money to A, would not the same equi
ties require that A he compelled to refund the
purchase money to B, less the value of the slave’s
hire ?
Again, many parties, 'since the end of the war,
actmg in good faith and upon principles ot com
mon honesty, have either paid in full or compro
mised, according to their ability, theii ante-bellum
debts. If the men who owe such parties aud have
never paid them & cent, or made an effort to do so,
are to go “scot tree” ot their debts, and enjoy
“year ot jubilee,” would not the same equities re
quire that the creditors,to whom debtors have paid
ante-bellum claims, be compelled to refund the
money thus paid, and let all debtors, without re
gard to race or color, participate m the “ year of
jubilee.” Justice.
Sales will reach 10,000 bales,

The Macon Convention.
A correspondent ot the Atlanta New Era, wri
ting from Augusta, December 9th, says, in ref
erence to the Macon Convention, that “A promi
nent gentleman, a delegate from some of the up
per counties, a Union tuau before and during the
war, went home after the first day. He did not
like the drift of things. The position of scene-
shiiter for a panorama did not suit him. I think
he is a good fellow, an honest politician, and
would like to go back into the Union ; but he.
like too n mv others, prefers not going, to going
in a second class car.”
The above has attracted the attention of a gen
tleman from upper Georgia who was a Union
man before and during the war, and he begs
leave to add, is a Union man now, and as such
was appointed a delegate to the Macon Conven
tion; and notwithstanding his pressing business
engagements, and sickness in his family, he
yielded to convictions of duty to his country to
employ eveiy available means within his power
to save it from higher law domination and ne
gro supremacy; and with this object in view, he
repaired at once to Macon, and on the day ap
pointed, was there to take part in th6 delibera
tions of the Macon Convention.
He begs leave, further, to state that he was
honored with the appointment on the business
committee, consisting of two from each congres
sional district, and that the business of said com
mittee was conducted with the utmost fairness
and decorum. The views of several gentlemen
were respectfully -considered, and, in order to
dispatch business, all the papers were referred
to a sub committee of three, including Mr. P,
W. Alexander, whose ready pen gave shape to
the action of the committee, which was reported
to the Convention at 5 o’clock of December 5tb,
and which action had the sanction of the Union
man referred to; aud believing that the said
Convention was pear the close of its labors, he
took the cars Thursday night and returned to
his home, where he was so much needed—noi
fully satisfied with what had been done, the lan
guage of the report of said committee being too
brief, and the terms too mild, to express the ab
horrence lie felt towards the revolutionary re
construction measures of the higher law Con
gress, and the loathing and disgust he tcela for
every intelligent Southern-born man who gives
said measures his sancilon.
The final action of said Convention came
nearer up to his views, especially the 5th resolu
tion ; and as a whole, it receives the hearty ap
proval of “a Union man belore and during thi
war” from Upper Georgia.

Disorders of the Stomach, Liver and Bowels.
The Stomach is the treat center which influences the
health or disease of the py^tem —abased or debilitated
by excess—indigestion, offensive breath and physical
prostration are the natural consequences. Allied to the
brain, it is the source of headaches, mental depression,
nervous complaints, and n refresh ins' sleep. The Liver
becomes affected and generates bilious disorders, pains
in the side, &c. The Bowels sympathize by costiveness,
diarrhoea and dysentery. The principal action of these
Pill is on the Stomach, and the Liver, Lungs, Bowels
and Kidneys participate iu their recuperative and regen
erative operat i on.
