SUNDAY MORNING, OCT. 17,1869
Presentment of the Grand Jury of
Warren County. —Prom the presentment
of the grand jury of Warren county, at the
recent October term of the Superior Court,
we extract the following earnest and timely
allusion in reference to the condition of the
country, and the abuses of the pardoning
power by the Executive:
We would do injustice to our feelings were
we to pass over the condition of our coun
try in silence. We deeply deplore the law
lessness that pervades our common country.
We attribute this, in part, to the effects of
the late war. But while the lovers of order
and good government have done all In their
power to arrest the tide of demoralization
that Is sweeping over our land, it has been
infested by a set of beings consisting of
renegade whites, lawless negroes and con
temptible carpet-baggers, calling themselves
men, who have done all in their power to
uproot the civil and religious government,
that they might thereby place themselves
in power. t _
We here solemnly arraign the Executive
of the State at the bar of an impartial pub
lic, for a large part of the lawlessness and
murder with which our State has been
cursed. He has pardoned and turned loose
in our midst a set of desperadoes and mur
derers ; in many instances to return to the
same locality and commit again the same
crimes for which they were first incarcer
ated; and often has he, when a criminal has
been found guilty, and sentenced passed by
the judge, either eomthuted the sentence or
entirely liberated the guilty parly. The
knowledge of these facts basin some instances
caused an outraged people to take the
law into their own hands, while it has, in
other cases, thrown obstacles in the way of
the execution of the law, jurors thinking it
useless to convict, believing that the undue
exercise of the pardoning power would be
extended to the guilty and condemned party.
Another cause of the uncertainties of the
law may be attributed to the presence of a
military force in our midst to overawe and
Intimidate the civil authorities of the land,
thereby furnishing wicked mon with the
power to wreak their vengeance on unof
fending citizens without authority of law.
While we do not complain of the military
in our midst, as a body, we would, in the
name of liberty, the Constitution, and the
memory of our revolutionary Fathers, pro
test against the stationlngof military forces
in our midst in time of peace, And we
believe that, were the people left to them
selves, all the evils with which we are
afflicted would soon be healed, and that
order and good government would be re
stored—that the laws would be executed—
crime would be punished, and tho bow of
peace would soon span our country from
the lakes of the North to the snowy cotton
fields of the South.
Wejoledge ourselves as a body to do all
we cad to'have the laws faithfully and Im
partially executed. And we would call
upon every lover of his family, his country,
his race and his God, to throw his influence
and the weight of his character on the side
of law and order.
Georgia. —We have had the pleasure of
meeting with several of the Georgia dele
gates to our Commercial Convention from
different localities in that prosperous and
energetic State. We arc pleased to learn
from them that the crops of grain and of
cotton in Georgia are far better than was
apprehended from the protracted drought
of August aud September. The cotton
yield will amount to something more than
an average half-crop.
We arc also greatly pleased to learn from
these gentlemen that the cotton planters of
Middle Georgia arc turning their eyes in
the direction of our city more than ever
heretofore for their corn and meat supplies.
The high price of cotton and the difficul
ties (arising from the vagabondism and
thefts of the more worthless of the negroes)
of rearing hogs in that region incline many
planters to devote themselves almost ex
clusively to the cotton production. We
can say for the city of Louisville that we
shall be most happy to build up an in
creased trade of that or any other kind
with the' great “Empire State” of the
South.
Our railway connections with Georgia,
already good, are destined ere long to be
extremely intimate. We shall bo. equal
sharers with our neighbors of Cincinnati
in the advantages of reaching the heart of
Georgia via Chattanooga, if we will but
build our road to Knoxville. From the
latter city the Blue liidge Road, while
giving us a near route to the commercial
capital of South Carolina, will also put us
in close connection with Northwestern and
Middle Georgia by means of a railway to
be soon constructed fVom Athens, Georgia,
to intersect the Blue Ridge Road as it
passes through the northeastern county of
that State.— Louisville Courier-Journal.
Row at Auburn. —There was some ex
citement at Auburn, Ala., on Sunday night
last, between college students and a parcel
of drunken negroes. It appears from re
ports that a party of students observing
some negroes, Sunday afternoon, taking
the sidewalk, to the exclusion of some la
dies, resented the indignity, and the ne
groes were driven ofl'. Becoming incensed
at this abridgement of their rights, they col
lected a crowd, with intent, as they are
said to have expressed, of “ clearing out
the college!” In the collision pistols were
freely used by both parties. The negroes,
thirty or forty in number, many of whom
were said to be drunk, were repulsed. Sev
eral negroes slightly wounded; none kill
ed. No serious hurt among the students.
The entire affair is deprecated by the citi
zens.—Columbus Sun.
Death oe Col. J. F. Cooper.—*We re
fret to announce the death 9! Col. James
'. Cooper, of Atlanta, Ga., on the night of
the 13th instant. He was formerly the Su
perintendent of the State Road and Presi
dent of the United States Mint at Dahlon
ega, before the war. lie took part in the
first battle ot Manassas as Lieutenant Col
onel of the Eighth Georgia Regiment \ and
was distinguished sos his intelligence and
private vyorth.
Fatal Affray.—A difficulty occurred
at DeSoto, near this place, on Wednesday
last, between Mr. Sol Mettles and a Mr.
KJooney, in which Mr. Nettle# wp fatally
Stubbed iq the bowels. The son of the
fetter coming up at the time shot Mooney,
the shot taking effect in the knee, causing
a severe but not fatal wound. We did not
learn the origin of the difficulty. Roth men
were intoxicated.— Borne Commercial.
The banks in Texas hold upwards of four
hundred thousand dollars in coin, while
those of all the other Southern States to

ty thousand. In Western Texas and in
California the currency has been always
