Till: FRtl D* OF THU BALLOT BOX.
That there are frauds innumerable
ot the ballot l>ox in thi State there
can l>e no question, nor is any one to
blame in the matter except the fraud
ulent voter. Prom the very nature of
our voting population, fraud is cer
tain in every election, if the least pos
sible chance is given for its exercise.
In an article pertaining to thissubjeet
we (Milled tho attention of the public
to tlie great and steadily increasing
evils that result from our present
mode of conducting elections, and
suggested that the sidling of a vote
be made a punishable offense, and
the ]>erson convicted be forever de
barred the privilege of the ballot,
This plan will in a measure prevent
tho wdiolesale sale of votes, but still
it will be evaded und the law not vin
dicated. These people to whom we
refer are such a tax upon candidates
that but few men can ufTord to run,
and if the evil progresses in the fu
ture as rapidly us in the past, it will
be equivalent to prohibiting a man
without money from offering for any
office that has to be elected by tho
people—the great sovereign voters of
Georgia.
This question then elicits a great
degree of interest, und it should be
the duty of the Legislature, before
they adjourn, to pass some luw t hat
will check and put a stop to this
fraudulent voting and the sale of
votes. We have u plan to remedy the
matter, and while we arc not wedded
to it, yet wo give it, and ask the earn
est attention of our Immediate mem
bers to it. Everybody is in favor of
some stringent law on the subject, no
matter of wliut. nature.
We propose that the Legislature
pass an act requiring that ten days
before each county election each vo
ter shall have been registered, and
all taxes due from him be paid before
registering. In this way you secure
th(> ballot box from fraud, and save
the candidates and their friends the
expense of paying other people’s
taxes in order to obtain their votes.
The practical working of such a law
will debar a great many from voting,
yet it will leave the eloetion of our
office-holders to tho selection of the
white men of this country. It does
not deprive any one from voting; It
onlv places a restriction or rule gov
erning the manner in which they
shall vote. If the right to vote is
such u great and important right, let
them learn to respect the rights of the
State by the payment of their taxes.
We know plenty of white men in this
county that did not voto in the recent
(doction because they had not paid
their tax, and knew it was wrong to
voto otherwise. When such a law is
passed, tho registration of voters will
take place ten days before the elec
tion, and no candidate would risk
paying taxes for voters that far before
the election. This floating class of
voters would then be without an oc
cupation, for on the day of election
it would bo too late (o pay taxes, and
only those registered and marked
laid on the lists furnished tho mana
gers would bo permitted to cast their
vote.
Pnoors ot Claims Against I!a.nk
ltrprs. Persons having claims
against Bankrupts, under a late act
of Congress, can now go before any
Notary Public, and prove the same.
Before this late act. they were re
quired to prove their claims before a
Bankrupt Commissioner, sometimes
at a heavy expense in travelling, &c.
Tho feo of the Notary Public not be
ing more than $1 with the seal.

That eminent lawyer, Gen. Sheri
dun, in his “brief” makes the follow
ing statement: “The Governor now
requested the Commanding General
of the Department to aid him in re
storing order and enable the legally
returned members of the House to
proceed with its organization accord
ing to law. This request was reason
able and in accordance with law.’’
If Gen. Sheridan means that Kel
logg had a legal right to make this
request, wo presume nobody will dis
pute it. He has a legal right to re
quest tho Commanding General to do
anything that might please him to
stop the axial revolution of the earth,
for Instance, or to set the Mississippi
River on tiro, but he could not have
asked him to do a more absurd or a
more illegal net than to interfere in
the organization of the Legislature.
Perhaps Sheridan’s extensive legal
attainments will enable him to point
out the statute which confers this
authority on the Commanding Gen
oral, or an Gov. Kellogg, or oven on
Gen. Sheridan himself. An attempt
is now made to extricate Grant and
his military agents from the conse
quences of this extraordinary pro
ceedings by the assumption that the
Governor has a right to control the
organization of Hie Legislature. This
is as false as all the rest. The Gov
ernor has no sueli right. Wo give
this information to Gen. Sheridan
without charge, in order that ho may
cease to make himself ridiculous if lie
chooses 1 But he will not choose. .V.
O. Picayune.
...... ♦ ♦ •
—Sheridan innocently supposes that
he makes a point when, in his famous
report to tno Secretary of War, lie
urges that Speaker Wilts set the ex
ample of calling for military inter
ference. The facts arc indeed. Sher
idan so states them -that Mr. Wiltz,
tlnding Gen. Do Trobilaud and the
United States army in possession of
the State House, and being informed
that the object of that occupation
was to preserve pence and order, re
quested the General to speak to a dis
orderly crowd assembled in tho lob
by, from whom lie feared disturbance
and to control whom tho Kellogg
officials were unable or unwilling.
Mr. Wilta did not invite the army to
come upon the floor of the House, or
to take the smallest part in the pro
ceedings of the Legislature.
And this, we imagine, is about as
near as Sheridan ever came to
making a point. N. 0. Picayune.

11l It ATLANTA LETTER.
Special OwriMpotidunoS Daily Tlifth.J
Atlanta, Ga., Jan. 14, 1875.
The hurly-burly of tho hast few days
is rapidly giving way here to the or
dinary routine of a legislative ses
sion. Tho ranks of the lookers-on
having been very much thinned by
departures, one can get around, even
at tho H. I. K. House, with some de
gree of comfort; and if we could but
get a glimpse of the sun occasionally,
there would not be much cause for
grumbling.
Among other distinguished men In
tho city is Gen. Bobert Toombs, who
still looks hale, hearty and fresh, and
attracts wherever he goes, by his
inimitable powers of conversation, a
crowd of eager listeners, who seem
much to enjoy his brilliant and orig
inal sayings albeit, not always
clothed in strictly crclexiastical lan
guage. A movement is on foot to get
the General mid Hon. B. H. Hill to
address the people, next, week, on
Louisiana affairs.
Gen. Toombs is understood to be
warmly in favor of a constitutional
convention—one of the strongest ar
guments in favor of which seems to
your correspondent to Vic, a necessity
for the reduction of the number of
members of the House. At present
it consists of 175 members, and lias
consumed two days In organizing and
drawing for seats, with scarcely any
other business having been done than
to receive and read the Governor’s
message, notwithstanding every
member seems ready and willing to
go to work. The cause is that the
body is unwieldy from its size; if It
could Vic reduced one-lialf, the busi
ness of legislation would lie much
facilitated.
But little has been done in either
House to-day, other than to read the
Governor’s annual message, which, I
presume, you have ere tliis received.
It seems to boa comprehensive
document. Among other Interesting
items it shows u snug little balance
of $1,086,045 in the treasury of the
State on January Ist, 1875.
The Macon & Brunswick Railroad
comes in under his recommendation i
for a thorough examination. It is
gravely doubted whether the en- j
dorsement of tho bonds of this road j
was legal. It can only be settled by
a solution of two questions: First
was an amount equal to the sum for |
which tho State became liable by ;
endorsement, subscribed and paid in I
by bona fide stockholders; second
if tills (a condition precedent to the i
endorsement) was not done, did the j
present holders of these bonds re- j
oeive the same with notice of this [
defect ? The question is complicated,
both from the fact of the difficulty of I
procuring accurate information, us
well as from the legislation in refer- j
ence thereto, of each successive i
Legislature since 1868.
The Governor, as you will see, (joes
for the Atlanta University. Tin’s is a
colored college, and has an appro
priation of SB,OOO annually for its
support. He recommends that this
appropriation be withheld for the
present for two reasons. That it is
a school where practical social equal- j
Ity is taught, and that theology is al
so taught. It ought, to be understood,
however, that our very worthy Gov
ernor is not opposed to theology gen
erally, but only constitutionally, and
his recommendation meets with favor.
His object is not to deprive the negro
ot the means of education, but insists
that the State ought not voluntarily
to support a school or system of
schools, “where! a the mischievous
doctrine of social equality is practi
cally inculcated.”
Senator Wofford of the loth, and
Mr. Carlton of Clarke, introduced in
the Senate and House, respectively, i
a series of resolutions on Louisiana ;
affairs. The resolutions, however, lie |
over; no discussion ensued, and I|
dare say no intemperate expressions
will be mingled with the calm, dig
nifled, but decided protest aguiiit the
wrong, which, through Louisiana, is
sought by the President and his ad
visers, to lie done the people of I lie
South.
Altogether the present Legislature
impresses one well ; its persons! is
flue,and the many well known citi
zens with a State reputation in each
house will doubtless give tone and
character to the legislation of this
sossion. L. A. W.

Ol B WANmxUTW LETTER.
Washington City, Jan. 0, 1875.
Special Correspondence Daily Timks.J
The Louisiana outrage, about which
the telegraph keeps you fully in
formed, has taken precedence of the
Civil Rights infamy, the jobs and
other iniquities which have ever
marked the action of Republican ma
jorities, leaving no general topics for
a correspondent's use.
The sturdy old watch dog of the
House, the champion of the South
and of the constitutional rights of the
entire country, Beck, of Kentucky,
has notified the “Beast” and his co
horts that they shull not lviss the
Civil Rights bill without the Demo
cratic members are guilty' of absen
teeism. He will make his word good.
After his fearless and very able lead
ership of un almost helpless minority
for over ten years, it is to bo regretted
that Mr. Beck is among the few self
retiring members who -go out with
the present session. After a brief
rest it is to be hoped that his district
will again demand his valuable servi
cos.
Every one knows Washington as
the city of magnificent distances and
palatial buildings, but no one who
has not visited the capital in the past
eighteen months can imagine the
change which has been wrought, and
for which the tax payers paid the ring
four prices. A uniform grade has
been adopted, and the streets paved
in a manner which will present a very
handsome appearance until the
“Nicholson” completely rots —say six
months longer. The capital grounds
have been greatly enlarged, giving
j distance and un effect which is a won
derful improvement. The grounds
on Hie east front of the building have,
been graded down from 4 to Vi feet,and
a corresponding filling up is in pro
gress on the west front, which Will
give a greater appearance of strength
to the terraced foundation, always
objectionable. The wide streets of the
city, save Pennsylvaniauv. and possi
bly one or two others,have been reduc
ed in width,the property owners I icing
allowed to have grass plats about
twcnty*feot wide, the sidewalks being
that distanoo from the houses.
Where the grading has left the hou
ses above the grade of the street, nice
terraces run up from the pavement.
It is very pretty indeed, and might
convey u hint to your own city, which
keeps up fully one-third more “of
street” than is necessary. Between
the grass plats and sidewalks the dis
trict ring placed fencing low and light,
and In many instances very handsome.
It marks unmistakably where the
ring and its friends own the property,
and you can count just us certainly
upon its being tho possessions of u
Democrat, when you see the railing
ugly, cheap and common. Kissing
goes by favor Is an adage that cer
tainly holds good in this city, the
capital of the nation. The original
I projectors of Washington designed
that the grounds extending from the
Capitol to the Washington Monu
ment should always remain unoccu
pied, save as a park, or by the botani
cal and other gardens, and such build
ings as the Smithsonian Institute.
This sacred ground lias been crossed,
however, by the railroad tracks of
the Potomac railroad and its de
pot, a gem of tho architectural art.
has just been thrown o]>en, a uiagntl
! cent monument to the party intrigue
| and corruption which enabled Tom
Scott and that hoary-headed old sin
ner, Simon Cameron, to influence
such partial legislation which the
most rabid Radical now admits must
soon be undone the tracks remov
ed and the building purchased by
the Government, at three prices
This depot cost a vast sum, and is
suggestive in another direction. The
company that constructed it made
sixty-three ($63) dollars over opera
ting expenses last year, leaving out
the question of its interest on its
bonded debt, which the Pennsylva
nia railroad had to foot, it being too
far North to shift the responsibility
muon the Southern Security Company.
The papers here are making war
upon the Gas Light Company. They
charge that the Company makes an
excellent article during the session !
and an unendurable mixture during j
recess. The Washington Monument j
still marks a nation’s ingratitude. I
examined the base of this structure
and It impressed me as very Inferior.
The rock of the masonry was in
small pieces and the cement could
be cut out with the blade of an ordi
nary penknife. It Is eighty feet high
now, whether it can stand four hun
dred and twenty more the original
design, Is very questionable, it
would seem as if even the monument
to the Father of his Country affords
a job. Now and Then.

Tlie number of acres of wild and

valued at $08,70:1,780.
-11 l 1873, the total value of city
and town property in Georgia was
$58,302,246. In 1871 the value is $.57,-
318,-218. in Bibh the decrease
amounts to $168,216; in Chatham to
$1,513,800; in Fultou to $150,008. in
Richmond tlio increase amounts to
$147,800, and in Muscogee to $66,772.
It will be seen from the above that
instead of a decrease of city property
in Columbus, it has Increased $06,-
772, while most of the other cities
have gone down.
Georgia has 115,330 white voters,
against 81,320 negro suffrage slingers.
The colored people of Georgia
