And much more in the same strain,
of which our people have long since
wearied, forbidding a full repetition
here.

el,amorously called for, and so round
ly berimed by Ihe Jfinyuirrr, yvhug it
[lossessed and published the same in
formation concerning thi? .jetty’s trip
to the Bay? ' The public learned with
bated breath and trembling emotion,
the sad fate of our informant, through
the following paragraph in Sunday’s
Enquirer:
“Could we learn the fellow’s name, we
"would publish it to the world, though he
"were armed like the Itagleys and a duel
“ist like Lily. Somebody is responsible
"for Uiis arrant falsehood, so calculated to

We rcsneetfuUy suggest for its own
satisfaction (no one else having man
ifested Much interest), that the name
of i/s o(ioi. informant might satisfy
1 his vigorous March for a “lying
idiot,’’ "shameless liar,” and “brain

In response to an Invitation sent os
by UqjL Oladowski, wo Jowl the plea
sure of a personal interview with
him, and found no apjirehonsion upon
his mind that our article was intend

can here say, in justice to Col. 0.,
that our informant expressed the
opinion that had his plans been car
ried out, work at \VvoU'<dk.'s lair
woSM have Wen At \ iionvior and
more substantial character. Col. O.

brave old soldier regretted that he
hud been made to appear before the
public in such a position ; "for,” said
lie, “if my honor was assailed, I never
would go into newspaper controversy

CoiTmuuu, Oa., 17 Jan. 1 m 76.
To tlpr Jtdifor nf the Daily Timex, Co
tninbiix. Geo :
The statement In your issue of 17th
Inst,, concerning offer of steamboat
by Central It. R. Cos., without charges
is not to. be denied. You ask why
the offer was not accepted? Permit
mo most l’OKiiectfiilly to answer tho
question.
The boat was offered without
charges, on condition thut it should
he returned to the Company, ill the
same efficiency and condition, as it
was delivered to the United States
Engineer Department, Would you,
Mr. Editor, accept such an offer, and
make yourself responsible for dam
ages done, and maybe loss of bout, if
happen, and pay for ?
I was sent to Columbus to ascer
tain, whether the Company would ex
cept payment for services of their
bout, and at what price ? Captain B.
J. Whiteside accepted the proposal,
and fixed the price for hired boat at
.*) per diem, the Coni|my to repair
all damages.
By authority from U. 8. Chief of
Engineers, tho oiler was accepted,
and I was ordered to commence
work.
The permanent improvement of
Chattahoochee, Apalachicola, and
Flint rivers, will occupy nearly three
years to accomplish, as the work can
only be perfOrmfd during the low
wat/T, and It lasts about eight
months.
The expenses for hired boat, dur
ing (lie working term uf eight
months, would be 245 days at S2O per
diem, $4,000 a year, or #14,700 for
three years. Assuming, that the
boat Clara cost SIO,OOO, the gatn in
Ihvor of United Htutes wmfld he $4,-
Tno, and in the end of work, the boat
will lie perhaps useful for other work.
Be kind enough, Mr. Editor,to have
a little patience, until time of resum
ing the work next, Hprlng, and if I
will he ordered to resume the work,
1 hope you will be kind enough, with
other scion title and intelligent gen
tlemen to lns|ieet personally, and
judge impartially the work perform
ed, and uncording to its result and
merit, form jour opinion.
Will you be kind enough to ex
amine yourself, the boat Clara. She
is lying at Columbus ut present, and
I hope you will change your opinion
in the mutter.
I am, Mr. Editor,
Your most respectfully
Obedient servant,
H. Oladowski.
Col. Oladowskl meets the question
of economy and judgment in tho pur
chase of the steamer Clara, in a dig
nified and gentlemanly manner, which
commands our respect taking no
issue on the right of a free discussion
of public expenditures.
■Admitting that the vessel is sea
worthy, and fully worth the money
paid for it, should not the title vest
iu such a manner as would secure to
our river improvement its entire ben
efit, and not in such a tvay as makes
it liable to be carried off at any time
by the Government for other work,
thereby lessening tlie appropriation
to the extent of the Clara’s value.
Asa reward to those who have read
us thus far, wo offbr tlie following, by
way of amusement. The Enquirer,
of the loth inst., says:
"Everybody who has read the luujuirt r
“for the Inat year. Including the Ixirrow
“ers, Is aware of the manner tn wlilrh the
“(hivernment appropriation was obtained
"for our river, if we were particularly
"vain, we might prove beyond tlie possl
"bility of dispute, to even the smallest
"pettifogger tnColundais and there are a
few here the prominent part which this
“journal took hi tho matter from the llrst
"to last, and which it exorcises now ill the
"smile direetion."
’ Those who are familial with the
efforts for our river improvement
must smile, when they hear it insisted
that the tiles of the "Enquiri r for the
lust year" compass the history of the
work, at the culmination of which
the Enquirer was represented, with
the other worthy representatives of
Columbus, and the Hon. H. R. Harris.
In 1870 the City Council had the mat
ter under advisement, and a commit
tee from that body, acting with a
committee from the Board of Trade,
got up the statistics. We do not be
| liove that tlie Enquirer, were it better
■ informed, would detract from tlie un
ceasing efforts of its members. Es
pecially does tho city owe the glut I
j tude for getting this appropriation to
j Mr. H. 8. Estes, who prepared the
statistics, and long before the Enquir
j or-. Sim delighted the city with its np-
I poaranco, secured by his individual
efforts, an appropriation of four
thousand dollars to be expended iu a
survey, preliminary to asking the
llnal appropriation. We would not
in the slightest detract from the effi
cient aid rendered by the Commission
of the city in securing tho appropria
tion, hut that the Enquirer was the
father of all this good, excites our
Haibles.
! The policy of tiie Government in
i t'urcliasing the steamer Clara is open
, to objection, hut at present \yo refrain
I from all comment. The toilr of the
jetty to South America, via Apalachi
cola and Cuba, can only be settled
! upon the subsiding of the waters of
! the Chattahoochee.

The death of Colonel diaries F.
Goode, of Houston county, is un
! nounoed. Like that of the lamented
: Garnett McMillan, it will be received
j by the people of Georgia with feelings
of profound sorrow. He was one of
I tin' most brilliant orators in the State.
He made a good soldier, and did gal
lant service in the Held.

Atlanta, January I<>, 1575.
Nothing of general Importance lias
been done or liuppeiicd hero since iny
last. The sunshine of yesterday was
succeeded to-day by cold, cloudy
weather, threatening rain or snow.
Forty-nine bills liave already been
introduced in the Senate, and sixty
eight in the House—a few of general
importance, inuny with hut little
merit. Tho Usury law is receiving j
due attention ; the Convention ques
tion the same, and many sections of]
the new Code are sought to he alter- 1
ed, with usual noeomi>animeut of lo
cal wants, Peterson Thwoutt, Esq.,
comes to the front to-day in a circular
to the members, strongly supiorted
by Gen. Toombs, ex-Judges Worrill,
Cole, Floyd, Fleming, R. H. Clark,
Montgomery, and Judge H. V. John
son, and Hon. J. A. Campbell. It is
a strong document, and will consider
ably add to the probability of favor- j
able legislation for Col. Thweatt.
A petition is iu circulation request
ing Hon. B, H. Hill to address the
members of the Legislature and citi-!
zens, and as the Hon. B. H. seldom or
never declines, it is probable thut he j
will si leak early next week, and what- ■
ever may ho suid otherwise of Mr.
Hill, he Is certainly the most effective
speaker in the -State, and his address
will, on such an occasion, detract
nothing from his reputation. Gen.
Toombs’ friends will likely also call
out the “thunderer” during the same
week.
Many expressions of regret were
heard this morning on the announce
ment of the death of two of Georgia’s
most gifted young men -McMillan
and Goode—each of whom made rep
utation in the Legislature two ses
sions ago.
Mr. Hill would likely be the succes
sor of McMillan In Congress, but for
tin: fact that since the nomination he
is understood to have jiermanently
removed his residence to this city,
and is, therefore, outside of the Ninth
(McMillan's) District. It does seem
that the Honorable gentleman’s spoon
Is always “bottom up.”
The standing committees have not
yet been announced in the House. It
Kikes time and considerable work to
properly arrange the one hundred
and seventy-live members on commit
tees. It is generally conceded, how
ever, that Gen. Lawton, of Chatham,
will be the leader in that body, which
Is altogether a strong one. Hfieuker
Hardeman tills tho chair gracefully;
is easy and quick in his rulings, and
shows the familiarity which past ox
i jierioneo has given him with his du
ties.
Your immediate Representatives
are well located. Mr. Crawford is at

—Some time ago mention was made
iu the Montgomery Adrertixer ol the
arrest of Mr. C. E. Goodwyn and sev
eral other citizens of Eufaula, on
charge of tin- murder of a negro nam
ed Miles Colquitt. The Aiteertiser
learns from citizens of Barbour coun
ty that men went before the Unites!
States Grand Jury and swore jxesi
t-ively that Goodwi ll was tlie man i
who killed Colquitt. At least he was
indicted on the- charge. When the
Investigating Committee was iu
Eufaula a few days ago, Mr. Good
wyn was called before them aenl
among other questions aski*d him by
the Radicals of the Committee was,
! whether or not, there was an Indict-!
j incut against him for murder. Mr.
Goodwin replied that then- was, and
said thit if the Coinmhtu would al
low him to do so, he would bring be
fore them Miles Colquitt, tho negro
for whose murder he was Indicted.
Permission was granted and In
brought in Miles who was subjected
to a long examination, the purport
of which has not transpired. If this
be 6, It will be a hard mutter to con
vict Mr. Good wvn of the murder of |
Miles Colquitt.

The Montgomery Adrertixer, of,
