discussion, rejected Mr. Butler’s bill to author
ize the Governor to give new bonds for old
bonds that were exchanged lor bonds which
were afterwards repudiated. After the rejec
tion of this bill the Senate consumed the bal
ance of the evening in reading bills first and
second time.
The Senate, in my judgment, did wrong in
rejecting Mr. Butler’s bill, for under this pro
of.tbe ordinaijeif ot the tire
to pay,, all,debta of
t£«i ft coni.deration is not found
ed upon a purpose.'to carry on the war. The
consideration given lor these repudiated bonds
were old six per cent, bonds that were issued
ten or twenty years ago, and that fell dne dur
ing the war ; but they had nothing to do with
that now. The House, too, in my opiuiou,
on Monday, also failed to discharge its duty to
(he principles ot justice and right, by failing to
pay Messrs. Boyton, Nesbit, Barnes and Moore
for their printing ot the Laws and Journals of
1864-’OS. These gentlemen, for the purpose of
settling their account with the State, in May,
1865, after the surrender, presented their ac
count at the Executive office, and obtained
State treasury notes for the same. As these
notes were of no value then, and could not, be
used without Legislative action, these gentle
men merely kept them as au evidence of debt
against the State. In November, however, the
Convention having vetoed all these notes for
the purpose of reciting those paid out for war
purposes, and liaviug put iu a proviso iu (lie
ordinance authorizing the Legislature to pay
any claims , not founded on war purposes,
these gentlemen proposed to surrender these
notes, and let their work be valued in
present currency, and be paid lor accordingly.
The House refused to pay it. If the honest
people of Georgia approve these things I am
mistaken. When the Federal Government
forced ns to repudiate so much as it did, and
left us better able to pay, surely the people will
not justify a wholesale repudiation of all the
honest and just debts of the State, created for
purposes not connected with or “ incidental
to” a state of war. If the people sanction
such things, iu a few years her name will be a
bye-word and reproach, and “ Mississippi re
pudiation” will be thrown in the shade.
The House yesterday passed the Senate bill
to release all cotton speculators from taxation ,
and, in doing so, I think it has violated tlie
great principle upon which our tax system is
based, viz: that of equal and just taxation of
all persons according to their taxable pjoperly.
The bill is entitled “An act to repeal an act
assented to December 15, 1862, in relation to
an assessment of tax on cotton and other mer
chandize,” and was introduced by Mr. Casey.
I do not believe Dr. Casey understood the full
effect of his bill, else lie would not have in
troduced the one he did, and which has passed
both Houses,
That you and your readers may understand
the nature aud effect of Mr. Casey’s bill, 1 will,
in a few words, give you a history of tlie whole
matter. The general udvalorcm act of 1862,
among other things, exempted the “growing
crops” of all citizens from taxation. But
few supposed that this released from
taxation cotton, and other productions of
the State, after “ the same had gone
into the hands of speculators, traders and
others, and held for barter and sale or other
merchandise. But most of the cotton specula
tors claimed that this act released all their
money (bey had invested in cottou from taxa
tion. This matter was brought to tlie notice of
the former Comptroller General, aud as that
officer felt that no such thing was intended by
the law makers, he, as in duty bound, recom
mended action by the Legislature. The Legis
lature of 1862, not seeing any good cause for
releasing cotton speculators from taxation,
while the former, mecoanics, merchants and
every other class ot our people paid tax, passed
an act providing that all cotton or other pro
duce, not in the hands of the original producer ,
and which teas bought by and belonged to x trader
or speculator, should be declared and known
as “ merchandize,” and, if held on the Ist day
of April in each year, should be returned and
taxed as other property. Here you will discover
that cotton i 6 not taxed as a commodity, but
the act of 1862 only declares that after it has
gone into the hands of the trader and specula
tor, it shall be declared “ merchandize,” and
shall pay the same tux as cotton osnaburgs, cot
ton sheeting, bagging, merchandize or other
property. Is there anythiug wrong in this ? I
think not, Messrs. Editors, for I see no good
cause why a cotton speculator shall be released
from taxation, while every other individual or«
interest in this State has to pay tax. But, under
this law, they are unqualifiedly released.
The act ol 1863, iti its operations, may give
warehouse men trouble, as they are required to
giye in the cotton in their warehouses, beloug
ing to speculators and traders, and to return
J-heJ-asyin same. The act is, no dofTbt, im
perfect in’this particular,'apd might be amend
ed, and if possible, ought to be amended, so as
to release the Warehouse men from some of the
inconveniences' they are put to, in returning
and paying over the tax to the collector—but
with no purpose whatever, save that of a good
citizen, who does not like to sec a sound and
good principle violated, I tell you that this bill
releases from taxation persons that 1 think do
not claim or ask tor exemption, and that it is
wrong. The idea that the act of 1563 specially
taxed cotton is ridiculous, or that it clleets the
sale of cottou is equally absurd—for under it, if
a man did not have his money invested in cot
ton, he was compelled to pay tax on it aiiy how.
8o the declaration that cotton should be de
clared “ merchandize ” made no difference what
ever, as to the taxation of the speculator—it
neither taxed him more of less. But the act
just passed does make a difference, for it re
leases him from taxation , if his capital is in
vested in cotton.
The Senate, to-day, passed the bill of the
House, to give State aid to the Air Line.rail
road, by yeas 21; nays *3. Before the bill was
passed. Mr. Gresham proposed amendments
which were agreed to —one of which was that
the State should not endorse for over 8500,00(1
until an amount of capital equal to the addi
tional endorsement shall be bonafida subscrib
ed and paid in and also that the company shall
provide a 3 percent, sinking fund, Ac.
You, no doubt received by telegraph, yester
day the intelligence of the signing ot the Bruns
wick bill, by Governor Jenkins. The signing
of this bill gave much pleasure to most of the
members and others, here—especially as it was
at one time feared the Governor would veto it,
and-1 presume lie would have done so, lmt for'
the amendments afterwards made by joint re
solution. You Will see by the Governor’s Mes
sage, upon tlie subject to the House, that his
reasons ar mud and good, lor signing the
Brunswick Jii’.
As predicted a few days ago, the Senate, to
day passed the bill to allow, and compeil all
parties in interest to testify in their own cases,
in civil matters, was passed, after striking #nt
that part of the bill and jyi|c
to testify against so as require an attor
ney to swear against hit client. - '
P*A Sab)#! Suitor.—lt seems that although
Jj&en Victoria is somewhat advanced in years,
and -the mother of a large and quite interesting
family, she lias not been wanting in royal
suitors since the death ot the prince consort. In
distant Abyssinia reigns a sooty emperor,
known as Theodorus, who, in the course of
events, heard of the bereavement of his potent
cousin of the far off' Isles. Having a pity for
her misfortunes and an eye to her empire, tin;,
sable monarch sent the widowed queen a letter
containing a formal proposal ol marriage. The
offer was treated with silent contempt, or ui.
least no reply was sent mitajliis sable majesty,
concluding that bn'had been intentionally- ii.
Bulled; seized all the Englishmen that happened
to be in liis dominions. An envoy was sent out
to demand or negotiate for their release. AI
length the charmiug widow lias been induced
to send an autograph letter to her savage suitor,
letting him down, it is supposed, as easily i
possible, and asking t he release ol her subject. .
We doubt if it wilt effect the object desired, as
the latest intelligence informs .us that the
queen’s subjects, as well as hgssffnvoy, had paid
\e penalty of her instill by leaving their heads
in th * possession ofth n; utiotiers ofThcodo

eiine the hand of the royal suitor, but as she, as
well as tlie entire English nation, haveadvaneed
the idea of the equality of tlie negro, we can not
see the impropriety of Theodorus in offering
her his hand and heart.
Had an Englishman aspired to mount such
dizzy height as to become a suitor lor her band,
we could well imagine her haughty indignation
of the impudent subject. But Theodorus lias
probably the blood of a hundred moaarebs

Liberia, —The Rev. Mr. Bowers, who lias
been several years in Western Africa, gives
the following account of Liberia, and what he
saw there :
As the Republic of and social
ly, is a miniature picture of tWNjnit.ed States,
so it is religiously. 1 found myself in the midst
of the several denominations, among those who
acted toward me as an old friend and acquain
tance, just returning home, whose fraternal aud
Christian intercourse was of the. most fraternal
character. Under the auspices and aid ot the
several denominations ot onr country, educa
tion receives a good share of attention and pa
tronage. It x’ill suffice to say that so fa- as the
soil concerns lije emigrant, lie will have, in
point of fertility, the equal ol any of our river
bottoms. Eight or ten miles up the Bt. Paul, I
saw sugar-cane, on the place ol a Mr. Young,
mature,') from eight to ten joints, and still in a
thriving condition. This farmer, I think, raised
his own sugar, corn, sugar-game, yapis, pota
toes, rice, peas, arrow root, coffee ; ‘ besides
which cassada, bananas, plantains, oranges,
“ sour soup,” with many other tropical fruits,
may be successfully and profitably grown by
any industrious farmer. Coffee of a very supe
rior flavor, equal to the Java or Lagnayii.,
thrives well. On the St. John’s river, at Bax
ley, in Bassa county, I saw one or two thousand
orchards. It seemed to me tlie cultivation of
the coffee tree would furnish a most delightful
avocation. The climate of Africa is tlie foe of
the white man. The experiment has been made
repeatedly to his discomfiture, as if by thefingep
ot Providence to point out tlie means by which
that benighted land may be lifted from the gulf
of darkness and despair. Africa is emphatically
the home of the black man. There the millions
of this country will finally rest from their ser
vitude, iff bearing back to their own race
whence they came the J}igh civilization and re
ligion which has blessed them here, and \viU
blesff and elevate millions ot their progeny.
Proposed Remedy for Ireland. —“An
ex-Irish landlord and tenant,” who ridicules
Mr. Bright s Utopian scheme of wishing En
glish absentees to sell their estates, says" that
what Ireland wants is an act to empower pro
prietors snii corporations tied up by emails
and family settlements io grant adequate (cases,
say nineteen years, when the landlord builds ,
thirty-one years when tlie tenant does so ; and
then let landlord and tenant make their own
bargains. lie thinks leases ought to be grant
ed in Leinster, Munster and Connaught; the
Ulster people being content with the custom
of their province, which, however, does not
pyeycnt the landlord getting the value of his
laud, which, though inferior iu quality, lets
higher than in the other provinces, iu con
elusion, he remarks : “ Irish landlords cannot
be charged with overletting, the rents being
about half thpßo of the east of England anil
Scotland, while they have not raised them (ex
cept in the ease of the new proprietors and in
the Encumbered Estates Court,) though neef,
pork and butter arc nearly double what they
were twenty years ago.”
The “Lunch Demon.”— “There is au indi
vidual around town of whom we hear occasion
ally, that lias gained for himself the sobriquet
of the “Lunch Demon.” His face can be seen
nt mo6t of the free lunches in town, where lie
scatters destruction among the hash and cold
potatoes. His appetite is said to be almost be
yond belief, and, if we are to believe our in
formants, exceeds that of the ostrich. He is
about six feet high, gaunt and sinewy, and
looks as if lie had the tape-worm. Saloon and
restaurant keepers look aghast when he ap
proaches their lunch board, as he cleans the
dishes on each side of himselt, as far as lie pan
reach, ulmost in the twinkling ot an ey 3. It’s a
good thing lor some of the cheap boarding
house keepers that he has not yet got to board
ing, as he would soon produce a crisis in some
of their culinary departments.”
N. B.—The above selection is not supposed
to apply to Augusta.
A. T. Stewart, the New York merchant
prince, is a native of Lurgan, in the county tfl
Armagh, which town during the late panic in
Ireland, was benefitted largely by Mr. Stewart’s
liberality. Not more than thirty-five years
ago Mr. Stewart’s mother, then the wife of
John Martin, kept a furniture store in Chat
ham Square, New York, while Mr. Stewart
himself kept o modest, dry goods store in
Broadway, opposite the Bark.

Rijimnation of the Eyes*
X_ r IS KNOWN TO THE PUBLIC, that previous
to tlio war, I was engaged in tiie application of a ineth
qd of treatment for the relief of certain forms of defec
tive vision, principally that attendant upon advancing
years, known, I believe, ar. Presbyopia witli physi
cians. Many in my own community are fully aware
of n.y success in this mode of practice, even during
the short interval in which it was pursued. I now
desire to resume my practice in this city, anil else
where, and in this Card I hope candidly to define De
position. lam not a medical man, nor an Qcclist, uor
Ophthalmologist, nor do I pretend to offer treatment
fordisiase- of tho eye, nor for any defect of risiOD,
save the very common, I may say, almost universal
one, referred to above. My treatment cannot in any
way prove injurious, and has rarely failed to benefit |
in any case in which it has bgen pursued. I might
refer to many cases of entire relief from the annoy
ance of glasses, but I prcler presenting my own, as a"
striking illustration of the success of my method. I
required, and wore glasses, over sixteen years ago.—
By the application of my own treatment, I have not
required them in reading any print nor in any exercise
ot the eyes, for more than twelve years. This success
can be made apparent to any one who will call upon
me. Incases where glasses have never been worn
but where the delect is beginning, my treatment is
even more strikingly efficient than was found in my
own case.
I now respectfully offer to resume my CONSUL
TATIONS with parsons requiring my aid, and who
may have confidence to adopt my method, and will
be happy to confer with any such at ray office, No.
4 Jackson street. Hours for Consultation from 9,
