Hamilton, Ga., April is, is 77.
Editors Timeh: The Crliulual Docket,
which was set for Thursday morning, wat
taken up, and the following parties tried
and cehvlcted—all of whom are negroes;,
r. Albert Thompson; simple larceny. Plead
guljty, and on account of youth fulness
and other circumstances, was fined costs
of Court, and if not (mid in ten days, to
-six months on chain gang.
A<]am Hulin; convicted of simple larce
ny. Sentenced to cliuiii gang for twelve
months.
Edmund Teel; oonvleted of vagrancy
and carrying concealed weapons. Bcn
tenued to chain gang twelve months for
former and six months for latter.
Turner Duulap; convicted of burglary
In night time. Plead guilty, and Was sn
bfincedto hard labor for ten'years' In the
Penitentiary.
Our Solicitor-General Is playing sad
havoc with the evil-doers wherever he
goes; he seems determined that no guilty
man shall escape.
While on the Motion Docket, and just
before adjournment. Col. James M. Mob
ley rose and stated that Gol. N. H. Bar
den, who had served tiie people of Harris
as Clerk of this .Court for the post Jejrty
‘years, and against whom no complaint
had ever been made, whose records were
models of neatness and accuracy, had, at
the lost election, on account of ago and
falling sight, declined to serve longer;
that he desired to take an order to
spread on the niinutee, the fol
lowing testimonial of the apprecla*
tion of bis fidelity by the bar; that ho de
sired tu have tho honor aud pleasure of
taking the order, because ho was the only
lawyer present who had been here all that
time; that he thought it exceedingly tit
ting that Judge Crawford should be the
one to grant this order, as lie was also
here.
‘’HarrisSuperior Court, fS|itiiig term,
1877; Whereas N. H. Hanlon, Eaq., who
lias served tho good people of this county
as well ns the members of the bar, as clerk
of this Court, with great skill and lioellty,
has reoently declined to serve any longer,
on account of age and failing sight.
“Therefore, the members of the bar here
by express their high appreciation of his
valued services aud our beet wishes for
hlB success and happiness to the end of
his life,
“Therefore, It is Ordered by the Court
that those expressions be placed on
the minutes, and a copy furnished Mr.
Barden."
Jqdgn Crawford said that the highest
that could be paid tills fath
ful public servant was that ho had been
selected by the people regularly for forty
years to-fili this office. Hp directed that
the order be taken and said that he
would in future instruct the officers of
the Court to extend to him all tiie privi
leges of a member of the bar.
During the proceedings which were
wholly unexpected Cob Barden was
affected to tears, as were numbers of
those present.
Cary J. Thornton, Esq., spoke In oppo
sition to the Convention Thursday night,
presenting ail that could be said against
the calling of a Convention in a strong
light. When Mr. Thornton had finished,
Hines Dozier Esq.,was called for,to answer
him, and responded in a short speech.
The Convention question lias been
thoroughly discussed this week, both pub
licly and privately, and we feel sure its
advocates are much more numerous than
they were in the early part of the week
The strangest feature In tho case is that
there are no candidates desiring to repre
sent tiie county in the Convention. Sev
eral names are mentioned by friends, as
Col. Jas. M. Mobley, Hon. W. I. Hudson
and Ool.N. H. Bardon, hut none seem to
care for the position. Of course they will
accept if the poople demand it.
To the editor of the Journal, Mr. Eugene
Grßnberry, and its clever foreman, Mr.
Fred Ball, your correspondent is indebted
for courtesies. Tho Journal is one of the
handsomest and newsiest weeklies in the
State, and is receiving the 1 iberal patron
age it so justly morfts; for tho jieoplo of
Harris county, nearly ail of whose names
are on its subscription list, are proud Of
it and its talented young editor, who is a
native and to the manner born. But no
man is perfect, and Eugene is not an ex
ception. He lias one defect, he is a bach
elor, however, we think one of Hamilton's
lovllest daughters has almost persuaded
him to remedy that. Long may the Jour
nal flourish under his management
Our clever friend Dr. T. S. Mitchell, has
increased our obligations to him by kind
attention, during tho week.
To-nierrow morning, we shall part with
the good people of Harris, after a week of
the most intimate association, which has
been very pleasant, binding us to many
with bands of friendship that time cannot
sever. During this time, we have par
taken of the generous hospitality of their
houses, or pressed their sun-browned
hands in friendly greeting, and part with
them now under the conviction that
throughout this broad land, there are no
more intelligent, honorable or hospitable
people than till the soil of old Harris, or
dwell in the handsome residences of its
county site—Hamilton. *

Tkr Uplund Mice Crop.
Wo'hear much of corn, oats, sugarcane,
potatoes, Ac., as foo<l crops, but nothing
whatever of the "rice crop.” Are furmurs
not planting noe? Have they ever ! tr)od
to ruise rice? It would be safe to say that
nine-tenths of all who havd ever tried the
advantage's of a rice crop for homo use,
continue to raise it. Land that will
yield ten bushels of corn to the acre
will yield double that In rice, aud
rice is worth more per bushel than corn
by more than double. It stands drought
much better than corn; and the straw
makes a good winter forage for cattle;
and is said to be unsurpassed as a ma
nure for sweet potatoes, when plowed in
a month or so. It is frequently and suc
cessfully planted between rows of oorn,
and ton or ilfteen bushels gathered, in
addition to a full yield of corn. No crop
Is more valuable to the farmer, whether
considered as a home supply crop or a
marketable articlo of food. Seed can be
bought of the Bavuunae rice dealers at
about *I.OO per bushel, and no time
can now be lost in getting them for now
in the lime to plaid. We hope to see every
farm in Uns and udjoining countios ruise
a good crop or rice. Messrs. T. J. Pearce
A Bro., have a good rice mill on the out
er edge of tho city, and others could soon
be put up if they should be needed.
Small quantities can b© cleaned by
pounding; and any quantfty needed by
any one family can be thus hulled Without
its costing anything,

An Unfortunate ntranger.
The young man who died at the Hospit
al last week, is an Illustration' of those
who seek the allurements of anew
land, and And their fondest hopes blighted
by disappointment. His name is Patrick
Hickey, being born at Cashel, which lies
at the eastern base of the Shreve-Bloom
mountains, Tu the cquuty of Tippmary,
Ireland.
He left his native country about seven
years ago, first serving as a school teach
er in the State of New York, which posi
tion ho kept until lately, when he got let
tors of recommendation to Bishop Gross
which he handed to him on his arrival iii
Savannah, but the venerable bishop not
being able to procure him a position as
teacher in Savanuah, recommended him
to the Catholics of Macon, whither he
went, but being unabis to secure a place,
because of no vacancy, he came over to
Columbus aud offered his services to
Father John.
His disappointments, and-a renewed at
tack of inflammation of the bowels, which
he had contracted in the North, laid him
upon a bed of illness, from which ho never
rose.
Having expended nearly all his savings
in an effort to find a situation, he was not
willing to place an unnecessary burden
upon his friends, and desired to be placed
in the Hospital, whore ho might be under
the care of attentive and reliable nurses.
At the Hospital he was tenderly waited
upon by tbs Catholics of the city, and
every comfort was provided for him; but
all these failed to wave off tiie hand of
iusatiuble death, and on Friday he Was
cohslgned to the earth from whence he
came— thoagh not “unwept, unhonored
aud unsung.”

Cemetery Notice,
The Cemetery Committee of the City
Council desire to give notice to the ladies
and others who are cleaning up their cem
etery lots, that no trash should be put in
the walks or streets of the cemetery after
next Saturday, as the time between that
day and the 26th will be required by the
city carts to haul It out. An observance
of this request will save some trouble, and
secure clean and tidy walks through the
entire grounds.

SPECIAL CIRCULAR.
To Tax Receivers of Muscogee 6a.:
rpHE fallowing Section* of the Code, to be found
* on pages 20 .and 21 of your Pamphlet of In
structions, are so very imjwrtant that I give them
iu this special form tor your careful attention.
I will expect every Tax Receiver to do what the
law and ins oath requires, and see that every tax
payer returns his or her property at its teuk
value ; not what said property would bring at
public out-cry, but what the property is worth.
It has been estimated that the property of
Georgia is not returned at one-half its true value.
This is wrong and should not be allowed. The
honest men pay nearly all the tax and many pay
but little because they return but little of what
they have. Many men return only about one
fourth or one-fifth of what they own. Make all
return their property at its tbits talcs and
then the burden of TAXATION will fall on all
equally.
FROM THE CODE OF GEORGIA.
88-19 • (835.) In cate of false return, Tax Receiver
to assess value. Each return shall be scruti
nized carefully by the Tax Receiver, and if in his
judgment he sbaii find the property embraced in
the return, or any portion Ofit, returned below
its value, he shall assess the value at once, or
within thirty days thereafter.
1840. (836.) Subsequent proceedings. If such as
sessment is not made by tne Receiver iustauter,
he shall give the tax payer notice of his assess
ment, and in either case it shall be the tax pay
er’s privilege to have it left to three disinteres
ted persons, one of whom he shall select, the
other shall be selected by the Receiver ;aud thtse
two shall select a third; if they disagree, a major
ity of whom shall fix the assessment.
8841. (887.) Property returned below its value.
It is the privilege oi any tax payer of the coanty
where a return is made to complain to the Re
ceiver at anj - time before the Digest is completed
that any return is below the true value of the
property; in which oasehe shall notify the person
who made the return complained of if practica
ole, verbally ir by writing, giving him the name
of complainant and the ground of complaint, and
shall proceed to have anew assessment in the
terms of the preceding section.
8842. (338.) Oath of assesors. Whenever such
assessors are called in, they shall take an oath
before the Receiver to do justice between the
parties at variance, touching the true assessment
of the tax return.
8843. (839.) Deldulling tax payer, how relieved.
When a tax payer has been returned as a default
er and double taxed, either by the Receiver or
Collector, the Ordinary is authorized to relieve
the defaulter of the penalty for default at the time
said Ordinary allows the Collector his insolvent
lists: Provided, That said tax payer shows to
such Ordinary by satisfactory evidence, that
either provident! al or other good cause be had
not an opportunity to make his return to the Re
ceiver of tax returns, and at the time of such re
lease promptly pays his proper tax, and one dol
lar to the collector as his fee, the Collector shall
promptly inform the Comptroller General of such
release, and the amount ot taxes paid.
8844. (840.) Defaulters, hmo relieved frem double
tax. Ail defaulters may at any time, and for the
same causes, before the Digest is made np and
ready to be sent to the Comptroller, save the
double tax by likewise giving in to the Ordinary,
and paying him one dollar, who shall give a copy
of such returns instanter to tne Receiver,and he
shall enter it in the several Digests.
8845. (841.) Defaulter's Oath. The Ordinary,
in the cases set f rtu in sections 843 and 844,
sh%ll require the tax payer to swear to the cause
of his delay, and shall state the same in the cop
ies finished the Comptroller or Receiver.
Hoping and believing you will do your full
duty in this important matter,
I am yours respectfully,
W. L. GOLDSMITH,
Comptroller General.
