They Say!
They say—Ah! well, suppose thev do,
nut can they prove the story true'?
Suspicion may arise l'rotn nought
Hut malice, envy, want of thought;
Why count yourself among the “they, . i
AVho whisper what they dare not say?
They say—Hut why the taie rehearse,
And help to make the matter worse?
No good can possibly accrue
1' rout telling what may be untrue;
And is it not a nobler plan
To speak of all the beet you can?
They say—Well, if it should be so,
Why 1 you toil the tale of woe?
Will it the bitter wrong redress,
t>r make one pang of sorrow less?
Will it the erring one restore,
Henceforth to “go and sin no more?“
They say—Oh ! pause, and look within,
See how thine heart inclines to sin ;
Watch, lest in dark temptation’s hour
Thou, too, shouldstsink beneath its power,
i’ity the frail, weep o’er their fall,
But speak of good or not at all.

Wit eras, Since the last session of the
General assembly unforscen occurrences
liave trail spired in the dispensation of an
All-Wise Providence, in that Helms parch
ed our fields and blighted our crops, and
the lione t oll'uit-- and never more holiest
efforts were made—-of the husbandman
have been very unsuccessful; and whereas
tho people of the State have boen in great
fear lest, creditors should, with tho strong
arm of the law, seize tho little property
remaining since tho disasters of tho war;
and whereas, further, this fear has caused
tho people of every county to assemble in
relief meetings to give expression to their
Wishes and inclinations, and, also, to in
struct their legislators in regard to their
desires and necessities, which are eminent
ly legitimate, be it, therefore,
Resolved, Hy the General Assembly,
That tile unfortunate condition of the peo
ple is fully appreciated by their Represen
tatives.
Hi'iolverf, Secondly, That it is tho sense
of the Legislature that the rights and inter
ests of both debtor uml creditor should be
equally protected, and that w hile the debt
or should keep sacred their contracts, the
creditor should not, in the present impover
ished condition of tho country, force to sale
the property of poor, hut honest men ; and
we earnestly recommend that both classes
of citizens act in tho spirit of the golden
rule, of doing to others as t hey would wish
that others, under similar circumstances,
should do to them.
Resolved, Thirdly, That the General As
sembly would respectfully point to the ex
ample of tho Northern merchant, magnani
mously adjusting his claims with the
{■Southern debtor, as worthy of the emula
tion of Southern people, in compromising
their own claims; uml that such an equit
able compromise can be effected, more
satisfactorily, by the debtors and creditors
themselves than by Legislative action.
Resolved, fourthly, That we still have
nil abiding confidence in the integrity of
tlie people of the State of Georgia, and that
thev are determined to maintain, unsullied,
their good name at home and abroad, if
they are permitted so to do,

But few on dits are to be gathered here.
No strangers are seen, hut the crowd
is confined solely to members and officers of
the General Assembly. Genera! A. R.
Wright made a flying visit, leaving in a
few hours after his arrival, much to the
regret of his numerous friends and admir
ers.
Bills continue to come m proposing to
altar, amend, modify or repeal, in toto, tbs
act establishing the County Court. The ]
feeline is almost unanimous that this Court
has not met the expectations of its friends.
It is a strange sort of progress, however,
which would abolish a Court which might
be improved and rendered valuable in fa
cilitating the ends of justice, and thus fill
up the wide gap between the JusUces
Court and the Inferiorand Superior Courts.
It seems to me the General Assembly
should look well to it, that the practical
workings of this Court should be carefully
scrutinized ; its susceptibility of improve
ment be maturely considered, and every
effort should be made to give the people
j speedy and cheap justice, and the means
; of securing all their rights should be freely
i open and easily accessible to all.
3 lea sure.- of relief for the people from
their pecuniary embarrassments, engross
: the thoughts of all. Some manner of relief
j which shall be free from Constitutional
j objection, is being earnestly sought for.
Many measures have bcerr presented, but
j so crude, mi.-shapen and indefinite are they
: that they will remain, in a great measure,
unintelligible till the dissecting hand of the
1 Judiciary Committee shall have perfected
them. The one most practicable is that
] presented by 3lr. Phillips, of Habersham,
and generally known as the 3lc3lillan plan.
] By this bill the .State, by being guaranteed
| by a mortgage of real estate, becomes the
! bondstnan of the debtor, and stands be
! tween him and the creditor for a reasonable
j length of time, till he may have an oppor
; tuuity to recuperate his fortunes and ac
i cumulate the necessary supply of the
: eircuiating medium with which to lift the
j mortgage.
I learn that there are two new members I
here, one elected upon a straight issue of
repudiation of private contracts, and the |
other upon the idea that the “.Stay Law ’
must be amended; its provisions enlarged;
that the unfortunate debtor cannot pay on
the Ist of January next the one-fourth re.
quired to be paid by the present “ Stay
Law. ’ ’
The mail arrangements are such that
time eno’. gh is not given a correspon
dent to do justice to himself or the press
he represents. If we had the Macon
and Augusta Railroad now running, tlrese
difficulties would vanish, and the Augusta
papers would be in much demand at the
capital. We are much gratified to know
this state of affairs will not exist another
winter. * L. C.

All the House bills and resolutions are

As will be seen by my reports of the
daily proceedings, it has been proposed in
the Senate to reduce the salary of the Gov
ernor and of his Secretaries, and to put the
pay of members down to $4. lit) per day.
In specie times, when money was money,
the pay of the Governor was $2,500. Even
in those times, this was not sufficient to al
low a Governor to support the dignity of
the office, and the unfortunate incumbent
was compelled to draw upon his private
means, in order to meet the demands of
hospitality, public receptions, and courte
sies, expected at his hands. The secretar
ies were cut down to a mere pittance, and
were reduced to the most miserable shifts
to make both ends meet —without being
able, as a facetious editor once remarked,
“to make one end meat and the other
bread." The sum allowed them now, is
barely sufficient to meet the ordinary wants
of a family, and considering the difference
between greenbacks and specie, is exactly
the same they were allowed prior to the
war, and when it is reeollecled, that but
two secretaries are now allowed by the Con
stitution, whereas, three were allowed and
paid for under the old regime, it will ap
pear that two secretaries are required to do
the work of three, and at a cost to the State
of at least 50 per cent less than was paid in
former times. „
The same general remarks will apply to
pay of the officers and members of the
General Assembly. The per diem now,
is really less than six dollars was in days
past. At first class hotels and boarding
houses, members now pay from two and a
half to three dollars per day, whereas,
when in oldeu times they got from $4 to
$6 per day, hoard was worth at first class
j houses from one to one and a half dollars
' per day. In these times, when cotton is
worth thirty cents per pound, a man, who
has any business at home, if he cannot
make nine dollars per day. stands, at least,
a fair chance to lose more than this amount
by i;is absence. In this account of "profit
and loss. " the deprivation of the society of
wife and children, and of the thousand and
one comforts and conveniences, which elus
•er around one's home, no matter httw
humble, is an item of no inconsiderable
amount. For all these, (unless he he a
bachelor) the legislator must forego.
If members put up with hoard at less
than $3 per day. they are the only suffer
ers. and it is no ones business hut their
own. Every county should not only be
tedlmg, but highly gralirieJ to know that
its owu Representative values his services
highly. The story of the Indian preacher,
who, when told as to his pay that "it was
poor pay," remarked, “it was poor preach."
is very appropos to this subject. The
Representative who is not worth good
pay is not worth sending to the Legislature.
Tlie same remarks are applicable to the
officers of the Legislature, and to even
department of the Government. Good
officers, good members ot the Legislature
and good pay should be the motto.

“State Aid” to Railroads has again,
after a five years’ slumber, been revived,
and 1 should not be surprised if it does not
show more advocates than is generally sup
posed. The first proposition, to aid the
Macon & Brunswick Road, as a naked pro
position, upon its own individual merits,
will be a failure; but an “Omnibus Bill,”
as it was called some years since, and which
was so manfully and so successfully fought
by Col. Milledge, of Richmond, will concen
trate quite an array of advocates. Should
such a measure succeed, together with the
measure of relief proposed by Mr. Phillips,
of Habersham, the issue of State bonds j
will be such as seriously to deteriorate their
value in the markets.
Georgians may well be proud of their
State’s credit, and should jealously guard
against anything which would impair it;
and while our Legislature should,"avoiding
all unconstitutional measures, afford relief
to our impoverished people, yet the in
dorsement of Railroad bonds is, to say the
least of it, of such doubtful policy, as to
render it unwise and impracticable at the
present time.
xks an item of political significance, look
ing to the early future, members are quite
freely speaking of Ex-Gov. Brown as the
probable successor of Gov. Jenkins. Gov.
J’s opin’on on the unconstitutionality of
the “Stay Law" lias rendered him, very
unjustly so l think, obnoxious to the
masses; and while it may be premature to
speak of the succession, yet the people are
looking to Ex-Gov. 8., Judge Stephens or
someone on their line of policy and way of
thinking, as their political Moses, who.is to
“lead them through the wilderness to the
promised land.” L. C. ,

BT ASA HARTZ.
She gaily tripped along the pave,
•A lovelier sight was never seen;
A tiny fost some sylph might crave.
Peeped out beneath her dress of green, |
With all a lovely woman's pride,
(And th >y have much of that, I ween,) j
She did not seek the fact to hide,
That she had oil a tiltereen!
Thus, all unconscious of the fate
Which hovered o’er her, like a pall,
Nhe sailed along in queenly state,
Nor dreamed that she could ever fall.
Alas! if dangers in our way
Were always by the victim seen,
I'm sure the lady on that day
Would not have worn the tiltereen.
A naughty boy, on mischief bent.
An orange ate, and threw the skin j
Upon the pavement, with intent
To see some green-horn taken in.
Gaily the maiden tripped along,
The danger all unknown, unseen,
Till o'er the treacherous peel she swung
The circle of her tiltereen!
The tiny foot had struck the “sell"
The naughty boy had stayed to sec;
And, quicker than it takes to tell,
Her bonnet's where her feet should be;
The passing crowd ail stopped to talk
Os beauties that are rarely seen;
And she doth rue the morning walk j
In which she wore her tiltereen.

Northern Men in the South.— The
New York correspondent of the Charleston
-Veirs, under date of October 25, thus
writes on a matter concerning which many
false statements have been made:
A large number of Northern men who
have purchased lands in the South and
Lave settled there, are out with a card in
the Tribune, giving the lie circumstantial j
and the lie direct to the reports of—well,
of imaginative correspondents who write I
that Northern men who settle in the South- I
ern States a r e plundered of their property |
and badly treated generally. These gen
tlemen further state that the freedmen con
tract with whom they please, in like man
ner as the white laborers here.
Tennessee —Cholera.— The Nashville ‘
papers report occasional cases of cholera at
some of the interior towns of Tennes
see. Major Washington Lowe died
of the disease at Springfield a day or two j
ago. j
The tabor Fxperlment.
On Saturday last, says the Constitutional
ist, the Club held its regular meeting.
Pursuant to an invitation to that effect,
3lr. Jonathan M. 3lil!er, so widely and
reputably known in this community, read
a detailed account of his experience with
white and black laborers, during the past
year. As 3lr. Miller’s views would be in
teresting to a large circle of readers, we
herewith present the document in ques
tion :
Mr. Chairman : “At the commence- |
ment of the year I employed as many ne- J
gToes as I thought necessary tor the culti- j
cation of my lands, but in consequence of a ;
port ion of them being dissatisfied, dismissed >
them, thinking I could procure others in j
their places. In this I was disappointed, j
and after repeated efforts to ootain other j
negroes, and failing, offering to pay them I
at the rate of sl2 5u per month, I was
induced to try white labor. Consequent
ly I wrote to my brother-in-law. 3lajor N. ;
W. Smith, in New York, to send me sis- j
teen white laborers, which he did, thirteen j
men and two women. They arrived at j
Augusta on the loth of 3larch, I paving j
their passage to Savannah by steamer, j
and then by railrood to Augusta, at $25 j
each, and was to pay them at the rate for j
men. sl2 50 per month, and for the women j
*SB. At the expiration of the first month,
their wages were paid them, and they in
sisted that their wages should be raised
for the men sls, and for the women $10;
notwithstanding they had made a contract
for the first mentioned amount, before leav
ing New York. 1 agreed to do so, as they
worked very faithfully. Their rations
were corn bread and bacon; as they were
unaccustomed to the corn, 1 gave them
occasionally rye and wheat bread with
i fresh beef, also vegetables, such as peas,
turnips, sweet and Irish potatoes, as soon
:as I raised them. I also furnished them
coffee, likewise their bedding, they fur
nishing their own clothing and paying their
Doctor's bili. At the end of the second
month several of the best workers amongst
them insisted _on their wages being in
creased still higher, two of them sl7 per
month, and one who acted as a gardener,
to $25. I put up the wages of the two to
sl7, as they were the best bauds, and the
gardener I dismissed; several of the others
left; one of the women I made cook and
wash tor the men.
About that time a company was formed
in Augusta for the purpose of introducing
white labor here. I became a member arid
went on to New York as agent of the com
pany, and brought on a hundred laborers.
I selected nine more out of those, having
made contracts with them in New York for
sl2 50 per month for men, and $lO for
women. I found in a short time they
were dissatisfied with their wages, and in
creased them to sls. By this time the
weather became rather warm, of which
they complained. They also seemed dis
satisfied with such rations as were furnish
ed them. I therefore discharged them all,
except one, whom I still have. I then
was able to procure a few more negroes.
I further found that the last emigrants did
not work as well as the negroes, even at
higher wages and better fare. I have thus
far entered minutely into my experiment
with white foreign labor, and will now give
you my views. The laborers are obtained
through companies established in New I ork
called emigrant companies. They put forth
pamphlets and handbills, containing terms,
and offering to furnish any number or class
of laborers, and of ad nationalities, fre h
front emigrant vessels. Instead of this,
however, when they receive an order,
they send out runners and gather up the
dregs of the city of New York, and aft such
as they can pick up and make from three
to ten dollars per head on each furnished.
They charge both parties, the employer
and employee, the farmer for furnishing
laborers and the latter for getting situa
tions. They bind both parties in contracts,
which might „do in the North, but as we
have no laws to enforce such contracts in
the South, and as there is no honor in such
characters, I look upon tifose companies
and most of the laborers as complete swin
dlers, and the sole object being to make all
the money they can out of the South, the
societies, by furnishing them, and the
laborers by obtaining a free passage to the
South.
The Emigration Company in Augusta
suspended its operations on the 23d of
June, after sustaining a loss of over $3,-
000, and I do not recollect a single instance
where any one of the laborers complied
with his contract. 3lary of them behaved
very badly and ran away from the com
pany, and from parties to whom they were
hired by the company, which placed the
company in a very unpleasant position.
My opinion has always been that our slaves
were the best laborers for the South, while
they were slaves, that could be obtained,
but, after being liberated and acting so un
faithfully as many of them did, I thought
if a class of white laborers could be intro
duced that would act faithfully, they would
stimulate the negroes to exert themselves
more, and it would be the means of re
storing the labor so much needed, and of
showing the negroes that we were not
entirely dependent upon them for labor;
that in a few years our country would be
filled by an honest, intelligent and indus
trious class of laborers, who would be
come identified with us, and become
tenants or owners of lands, and our
drooping country again be made to bloom
and blossom-as 4lie rose, in pouring forth
its rich productions under the tillage of
more skillful and intelligent labor. ' Os
course, 3lr. Chairman, I, as the pioneer in
this move, felt some pride as being in some
degree instrumental in aiding our depressed
and down trodden South, to arise and take
a high position, despite the cruelty and op
pression of our enemies. But I have been
disappointed in my feeble effort, but not
discouraged. I believe that white labor
can, and will be successfully operated with
here as farm laborers, as much so as in sac
laws for their introduction into this coun
try, send agents to Europe and select the
laborers and ship them directly to South
ern ports, have the contracts entered into
for two years, with a penalty if they failed
to comply, and witli an additional penalty
to punish any persons that might interfere
in any way witli the laborers, then we
might operate successfully, and not until
then. As for getting laborers from Emi
grant Companies North, it will be attend
ed with disappointment, vexation and loss.
Respectfully,
Jonathan 31. 3liller.

resolutions.
The following resolutions, in addition to
those which we have already published,
were adopted:
Resolved, That this meeting sees noth
ing in the present condition or future
prospects of this company to induce des
pair of the ultimate success of our enter
prise.
2. That with a fund of subscribed stock,
yet untouched, in the hands of' solvent
shareholders, amounting to upwards of
$3,000,000, of which less than one-tenth
will discharge alt our liabilities, and less
than one-fifth will enable the company to
proceed prosperously with its operations,
insolvency is absurd, and failure to suc
ceed wholly unnecessary.
3. Thatco pay the debts and resuscitate
the credit to the company is tho first duty
and purpose of tho stockholders, to which
andevary shareholder is already pledged
and bound by law to the full extent of the
stock owned or subscribed by him.
-1. That this meeting being satisfied
that thirty per cent, of the stock at present
subscribed will suffice to pay the debts
and prosecute the business ol the company
successfully, would now, if it possessed the
legal power, reduce and consolidate the
stock by reducing the number of shares
to three-tenths of the original amount ;
but that being impracticable without an
amendment of the charter, the stock
holders here present pledge themselves,
and hereby instruct the President and Di
rectors to endeavor to obtain such amend
ment from the General Assembly of Vir
ginia as soon as it shall again be convened
in December next.
5. That, in addition the requisitions
heretofore made, amounting in the aggre
gate to twenty per cent, the President and
Directors be instructed forthwith to make
a further requisition of ten per cent, upon
the stockholders—five per cent, payable
within thirty days, and five per cent,
within ninety days—and that they pro
ceed, without delay, to enforce payment
from all delinquents by the promptest and
surest process of law.
6. That the President and Directors be
advised to suspend the active operations
of the Company, taking due care of all its
property until the stockholders shall have
responded to the requisitions upon them
as to supply a fund sufficient to pay tiie
debts and extend the business without fur
ther embarrassment.
7. That the creditors have, in the obli
gation, willingness and ability of the
stockholders to pay with honorable
promptitude, the debts respectively due
the amplest security therefor. They are
respectfully,appealed to to forbear such pro
ceedings as can only tend to delay, embar
rass and injure the Companv, without in
any wise hastening that result of the
speedy liquidation which the stockholders
desire and aim at not less earnestly than
themselves.
8. That the stockholders now present
address themselves with confidence to
their fellow stockholders, urgently but
most respectfully reminding them „hat they
cannot and ought not to seek to evade
responsibility for the debts already incur
red, and that in justice to all concerned the
commercial enterprise ou which we enter
ed, so needful as it is to the business
of the country, and of which we
esteem the future success already assured
cannot beabandoned without eminent di.si
credit. They therefore trust that each
stockholder, for his own sake, and for the
sake of the Company, will respond
promptly and fully to the calls made upon
O.JJThat the President and Directors be
specially instructed to cause the interests
1 and rights of the company now in litiga
tion in Alexandria, Baltimore and New
i York, or elsewhere, to be diligently cared
for and protected.
\ 10. That as soon as the debts of the com
pany snail be paid or satisfactorily ar
ranged, the business shall be gradually
resumed, as fast and as far as circum
i stances shall allow, and at all events
, in season for the spring trade.
11. That the President and Directors be
requested to apply to the General Assem
blv ot A irgiuiaas soon as it shall convene
m December next, for an amendment to
tne charter reducing the capital of the
company to a minimum of 81,000,000, with
power to increase it to §2,000,000, and lim
iting the liability of the stockholders upon
their raising subscriptions to fortv ner
cent, thereof. J 1
12. That it shall be an invariable rule
from which the President, Directors and
Superintendent are specially charged to
allow no departure, that all employees of
this company who receive or disburse mo
ney shall execute and file with the Secre
tary, before entering upon their offices
bonds in adequate penalties, and with sui
ficient security, to be renewed from time
to time as occasion requires, for the faith
ful discharge of their duties.
13. That the utmost energy- aDd prompt
ness on the part of all officers and em
ployees of the company, with a pervadin', j
spirit of economy, are deemed necessary
to success; and therefore we recommend !
to the Board great vigilance in this r«- 1
gard.
