1 rlr*n Form of Oath of Offlpf.
When an oath of office prescribed
liy the Constitution or by statute bo*
citnoH a mere- form, no entirely so
that a eompllnneo with is had with
out any regard for its sanctity or ob
ligation, and when In fact the party
taking it considers himself to be only
qualifying to exorcise the functions
of Ids office, it Is high time such form
should be ewejit away with the rub
bish of the |Mist.
These thoughts were suggested on
hearing a gentleman who was pres
ent, speak of the swearing in of the
members of the House by Hon. B. P.
Trljipo, one of (ho Judges of the Su
preme Court. According to the hear
er’s statement, about an hour was
consumed on Wednesday last In the
calling of a hundred and seventy-five
men by sixes, who, with their hands
bn the "holy Evangelist of Almighty
Ciod,” wero placed on the record as
having solemnly averred they had
not practiced uny unlawful means,;
directly ur indirectly, to procure their
election ; thut they had not given, or j
offered, or promised, or caused to be
given or offered or promised, to any
person any money, treat or thing of
value with intent to affect any vote,
or to prevent any person from voting
at tint election at which they were
elected.”^
Just think of a clause in our State
which requires a mem
ber of the Tefclsluture to make outh
that ho had not any time before his
election given any person employ
ment or oven treated, L them with the
intent tlmt the sumo should favora
bly Incline such persons, and thereby j
aJftM't their votes! Perhaps the facts ■
in the ease of cacti and every mem
ber was In strict accordance with the
above ; and then again, perhaps, as a
legislator said some years ago with
reference to hts own case, they just
“greased tlio oath and swallowed it.”
We do protest that if any change is
made in our (JbnstUution, this matter
should have attention. Men of high
character as our legislators for the
most part are men who are very far
from having perjury at their hearts,
should not he compelled under this
senseless form to assume the uppour
unco of having spoken it with their
lips. Tf thought to lie useful or con
servative for any purpose, let the
statute making it a crime to buy or
sell or offer to buy or sell, or to be
concerned in buying or selling any
vote, remain on the statute book;
but lot us no longer continue the
folly of requiring the oath of the in
dividual as a prerequisite to the exer
cise of his legislative functions.

Henry Clews, in his bankrupt sched
ule, returns H. X. Kbabull’s indebted
ness to his Arm at #16,000. Kimball,
on his schedule, placed the sum at
over a million. Who has lied? Kim
ball lias just gotten through his third
bankrupt investment, and yet he is
announced as a half owner of the ho- !
tel which endures his name, and is
able to lead hi a cotton factory scheme
which is to make Atlanta us big as
Now York. The idea of the bankrupt
law, as construed in this section, is.
that a man just out of its court is ne
cessarily poof. But. he went through
the mill in New England, and, judg
ing the matter by all other prece
dents, we may conclude that bank
rupt* get more favorable terms there
than in rebellious, Democratic Gecu
gi.

Thk Atlanta IhrnUi has been f.nwd
by tUo apuntUtlqwt ausfopresriita
tiorifl General Toombs to publish
an explanation of the transaction be
tween the managers of that paper
ami the fleneral. The statement of
the Herald is crushingtn its atrraign
mont of (tenoral Toombs, and places
hltu in a miserable light lieforc the
world. After tOciKwlngthc unnatural
conduct of General Toombs, the
Herald gives him this piece of sensi
ble talk:
"Now wo have a quiet talk for
Toombs. There Is no man in our
State who could command more re
siH'ct, and who does command less,
than he. Gifted with an elixfuonoe
eajiable of winning the applause of
a nation, he l.s content to command
the approving hiccoughs of a curb-i
sloiK: tigbblo. Armed with a newer
that once shivered this Republic, lie ;
is sat islb'd now to congregate about !
him the rag-tag of the town and hold
them interested by ribald, jest, or I
unctuous slander. He who once I
held a Senate spell-bound, now as-!
plrcs to the aptness of a fishwife or
the vernacular of a blackguard. He
who onco reasoned for the notion,
argued for the world, and was the
champion of eutlndio govern
ment everywhere, now s\>eiids his
time abusing without a cause, do- i
nouncing without a pret ext, and .slan
dering without responsibility."
We do hope, for the credit of the
great Georgian, and for the State of
Georgia, whose people are, to a great
extent, held responsible for ins ut
terances, that he will heed the ad- j
vice given by the Herald. If lie i
could only realize the force and ]
truth of flic He.raUl'a words he would. 1
If ho only know wliat a some ■ of!
mortification his indecent conduct is
to Ids friends, he would spare them 1
the infliction. Even tlio gaping rob- j
ble that lie gathers around him to
listen to ids ribald jests, though l
laughing before his face, pity or do-1
ride him behind his back.-- Atlanta ,
Commonwealth.
This may be true that General
Toombs lias acted indiscreetly, and
who does not, occasionally ? . We I
learn from gentlemen who were in j
Atlanta, the remarks of General
Toombs about the Legislature, were
said in a spirit or playfulness, and
made to the members themselves,
who at the time, seemed to accept
them In the same spirit and without
offense. Several papers of the State
have taken tip the matter and com
menced a crusade against General
Toombs. , The General should only
sound the praises of Atlanta if ho de
sires to be glorified as 11. I. Kimball
is, yet one has been honored every
way bv the State of Georgia, while
the" other’s connection with the State
was an attempt to steal it.

Atlanta, Ga., Jan. is, IM7&.
i The work in each branch of the
Legislature bus been somewhat more
I Interesting to-day than usual. Sev
; erul bills came up on their passage in
j the Senate, and brought out different
members ill debate. Among those,
tho bill to change the constitutional
f homestead clause was the most iiu
i portont. The bill provided for the
! rcpeul of that section of tho consti
tution which lines the value of a
homestead, and provided that tho
Legislature should have jurisdiction
over the subject, but limited the
j homestead to one thousand dollars.
It was advocated by Mr. Howell of
the astli (Atlanta) district, mid Mr.
Arnow of the 4th, and was opposed
by Messrs. Peuvy, Becse, Hudson of
the 28th, and others. It was con
ceded by all to be a just measure, but
was opposed on the ground that a
convention shonld be called and take
full jurisdiction of this, as well as
other defects in the constitution. The
vote stood 1!) ayes, is nays; two
thirds being required to jmish it, the
bill consequently failed. This vote
seems to settle tho question that, so
far as the Senate is concerned, tho
bill for a convention will be passed.
Another iini>ortant bill, which fail
ed in the Senate, was to make the
I offence of stealing a hog, punishable
by confinement in the Penitentiary.
It failed by a small majority. Tho
farmers in the Senate generally voted
for It.
The time of the House was taken
up mainly with reading bills the first
and second time. A resolution was
Introduced to bring on the election
of State Printer on Thursday, but it
was not adopted. This election will
probably come on Saturday or Mon- 1
day next. Apropos there never was I
a better set of canvassers than the
printing men here. While very po-l
life and gentlemanly, they are ex
ceedingly active and make themselves
nmstersof the situation. Strong com
binations have been made among
them, and it is doubtful who will be
the successful candidate.
The standing committees of the
House wero announced to-day. Gen.
Lawton, of Chatham, was made Chair- 1
man of tho Judiciary, and W. D. An
derson, of Cobb, Chairman of ttie Fi
nance Committees. Mr. Grimes was
placed on the Committees of the Ju
dlciary and Journals, while Judge
Williams will serve with the Commit
tees on Slate of the Republic and
Privileges and Elections. The House
Is considerably behind the Senate In
its business.
In Executive session this morning
tho Senate confirmed Hon. Henry 15.
Tompkins us Judge of the Eastern j
Judicial Circuit, vice Judge Schley j
resigned. About the first official act !
of Judge Tompkins was to sentence
the notorious Tunis G. Campbell, of j
Mclntosh, to the penitentiary for one
year, he having been convicted by a j
jury in the Superior Court of Mcln
tosh county, of using his office of Jus
tice of the Peace to oppress a citizen. |
Campbell 1h a member elect of the
present House, but instead of taking
his sent will probably si>end the win- j
ter in the coal mines of Hade county. !
He arrived here on Saturday after
noon in cl large of a guard, for the lat-1
ter place, when a writ of hnhrax cur
;o was served on the officer having
him in charge, which was to be hoard
to-day. The result of which has not
yet transpired, but it is quite prob
able that Campbell’s conviction will
stick.
The term of office of the present
Clerk of the Supreme Court has ex
pired, and as it is oueof the best pay
ing offices in the State, there are
many applications for it. The Clerk J
Is elected by the Judges, which will
prevent much canvassing. The pres
ent incumbent, Mr. Harrison, is a
candidate ; tho result is doubtful the
income of tho office of Clerk is said
to be double that of the Judges;
ought tilts so to he?
But few strangers remain in town
—as the prospect for lobbyists and i
"axe-grinders” is i>oor; the prevail
ing talk is of economy many
schemes for fostering immigration
nro suggested, and a bill has been in
troduced into one of tho Houses for
the appointment of a Commissioner
to look after this needful interest.

One Saltie! of Selma writes to tlie |
Nortli us follows:
“The feeling against Republicans j
is so strong in Alabama now that the |
Democracy is victorious, that I find ]
it all tlmt inv life is worth to remain !
in the State much longer. I have/
closed up my business, but hardly
remain to make collection of debts.
I must leave here.”
Everybody in Selma (where he
lived.) knows tlmt “Old Halt,” did
not stay there long enough to puy
the negro ex-Congressman, Ben Tur- j
ner, the money that he boat Ben out
of. If anv Democrat over thought of j
harming Baltlol, it must have been
because they mistook him for a yel
low dog.— MoutijomtTU Advertiser.
