RISING FAWN, GA.:

Constitution. The vote on Senator
Tfoily’* bill to devot# tlie sum covered
back into tlie treasury from appropria
tions fur the pay and bounties of colored
■oldicrs to the education of the colored
people at the;.'leading institutions in the
south—tlie vote on this bill will show
who are the friends of the colored man.
'I lie money in question belongs to the
colored people, and the republican who
vote- against the bill will put himself on
record *s an arch hypocrite.
Constitution: Mr. Sherman and the
administration would contract the vol
ume of the greenbacks; Mr. Bayard de
sire* to rob them of their legal-tender
function; Mr. Voorhees wants free and
unlimited coinage, and the greenbacks to
stand as they are; the people want con
gress to let The currency alone. They
want the resolutions of Messrs. Bayard
and T oorhees buried in one common
grave, and the whole subject remitted to
the next congress. They arc content to
use for another year the currency they
have, and therefore wat an end put to all
father congressional tinkering.
The Philadelphia Record m speaking
of tire exodus 6f the negro from the
South truthfully says: Since the falla
cy that the cotton crop cannot ho raised
with white labor ha* been exploded by
this year’s experience, the exodus of ne
groes from the South will no longer ex
cite alarm, either in the cotton growing
or in the cotton spinning States. When
however, the present condition of the
industrious negroes in the /ottou States
(which is much more prosperous than
that of agricultural lahores anywhere
ele) is compared with that of the ne
groes who were deluded into leading
their homes for Kansas, the inhumanity
of those who encouraged the exodus
movement may be measured. But,
notwithstanding all tlie subject, there
are evidences of a political scheme to
colouiiie Indiana with a sufficient num
ber of negroes to change it* political
status, to accomplish which several
thousand of these credulous creatures
are to be inveigled from their homes.
No words of condemnat ion are too strong
for the political leaders, who depend for
success upon thus trading in human
hopes and happiness.
Dr. Felton introduced m Congress,
one day last week, a bill to protect in
nocent persons from unjust criminal
prosecution. We have not seen Ihe bill,
but are confilent, if it should become a
law, a check wi.l be put to tins arrest -
1 ing of persons upon warrants sworn out
by information.
Me think tf the whole of the transac
tion of the U.S. Marshals in North
Alabama were brought before Congress,
it would cause even tlie stalwrts to stop
and think for one moment at least.
The numerous arrest which have been
made in North Alabama during the
past three months upon information
filed with some one who issueo waiients
without affidavits, and places in the
hands of Marshals to execute, —their
arrest —trial, and acquittal, at a heavy
expense to tlie government—should cer
tainly receive the attention of Congress.
We understand that judg Bruce of'he
U. S. Circuit Court for tlie Northern
district of Alabama, has issued an order
r-moving ail Commissioners and special
Marshals in his district. This is a
move iu the right direction, and carried
out by all of.ths U. S. judges, would, in
a great measure act n> a check upon the
Commissioners and Marshals.
While some of our peopleware oallintr
for more court*—more judgements Ac
we would say return to the old rule
abolish the district and Circuit Courts,
and leave all matter to be settled bv the
State Courts with the right to appeal
the U. S. Supreme Court.
The objection tothis as urged bv some
is that the Supreme Court con id not do
the business that would come before it.
—that it is several yoai behind end
must be relieved by iota:mediate Courts

It seems to me that it’s most to soon
to make s president, but theres less
harm iu it than in speculating in cotton
futures. The newspapers arc very busy
about it anh bar e Kettle it up very satis
factorily to them who can understand it.
Now, if Seymour can carry New York
and aint too old run, and Hendricks
will run with him and carrv his slate,
and Bayard can carry Delaware, and
Alex Stephens will stand up to the par
ti', and we cant elect our man, and
Hewitt (hint trade bin off, and General
Giant concludes to run the canal and
Lonchranc gets reconciled, and Dr, Fel
ton is satisfied to stay in congress tlie
balance of hii* life, and everything
works smoothly raid wo make good
crops next year, why ws will all be
lmppy and no loss on out side. Tint if
General Grant runs ayd General Hand
cock and the bondholders put up eight
or tan millions and Pennsylvania goe
foi Handcock anb New York for Grant
and the other states go some wav and
nobody knows how the thing is mixed
up and Mr. Stephens goes for Grant and
nobody i elected, why we cant tell very
ranch about ?t nohow. The whole bus
iness is very much like Uncle Pete Stro
hieris elm-got o the jury. Cox was suing
Wilcox about a horse trade. Cox said
that the horse lie bougliu from Wilcox
said lie only had the di stem per and that
he would get well jf he had been wroper
ly doctored. Anoint forty witnesses
were examined and half of cm swore the
horse h*d the distemper and the other
half swore he died of glanders. So the
judge charged the jury at groat length,
for said he: “Gentlemen, the supreme
court says thetmore than half the case*
that comes up there never would hare
come if the judge so charged the jury as
|to make cm understand the case. Now
I i’ll try and make thi. ease as luminous
|to you as the noonday sun. Now youve
heard all the eviih nee more or less and
I charge you that if the horse had the
glanders and died after he got over it,
then Cox is entitled to recover the value
of an unsound horse; but if Wilcox had
the di&temoer and the horse didn’t have
theglundeiv, then th? home cant recover;
raid if Oox.su 1 Wilcox had the glanders,
then the jury must say what is the mea
sure of d.nnag : aCH if the horse had the
distemper anb Cox cured him of it, then
Wilcox is liable for rent and occupation;
but tlie whole case depends on how old
the horse was, and whether he had evir
i had the blind staggers or not—all of
which you are to determine according to
the evidence countingt he number of rit
nesses on both suLs whether they me
even or odd, but I charge you that il
neither Cox nor Wilcox nor the lio;s.:
had the glanders nor the distemper then
the jury cant recover and you will be
obli •“■! to ?;r:ng iu a verdict for the wit
nesses in this case. Retire gentlemen
and make up your decree.
Thp next case was about a cow that
was unruly and hsd to wear a yoke and
a pokg and get hung : n a grape vine, and
was choked to death, and the plaintiff
sued the man he bought her from, and
after a’l the evidence submitted Un
cle Pete charged the ju v v that if tlie cow
was sold to Higgins as a sound cow and
she was unruly and had to be voked and
poked, and. by reason thereo'got-choked
death by a gyyr tut proeet: wa.sent fit

I cow’s time, then the plaintiff cant recov
■er anything more thon consc- ueniial
I damages, and ! charge you that this is
he,law of the ca.**, but you ten find for
c cow or tlie railroad jest you please,
it gentlemen of the jat v J diciu*- you
uij-on must find for the plaintiff in
xtasc, provided you dont think the
..efeudaut ought to recover.
Jesso. Now, it occurs to me from rea-
I ding the newspapers that the whole
i _ ui&ahout the next piesident is as cleat
as a sunbeam, and if any man wants to
he on it, why tliers no troubl about ma
king up an issue. If T\lr. Tilden lives to
! sec the next convention and is not nom
inated, why then you may set it down
that somebody else will be, and if Goal.
Grant dont bent him, and Sherman and
Blaine dont run why then Ju ige Loch
lane and George Washington Childs
will ha\e to write a funeral ode and wait
four years more for an office and then
not get it—provided we elect our man
and he ain’t cheated out of it and we
don’t have a king put over us in the
meantime. My opinion is that some of
the newspapers have put it exactly but
which one it is i am net prepared to say
at this time and think the whole matter
ought to be rtfered to Uncle Pete Stro
zhier. Bill Anr.
