Whou will the viwion of many mem bojß of tho Lufftolaturc extend boyond tho horizon that bounds their own loculity and take note of the general and important duties und responsi bilities with which, as a whole, that body stands charged ? When will such members understand that Mr. A goes as Representative from the county of if, and not, ns Representa tive solely fou tho county of I! ? Here, at the very commencement of the session, In order that local favor may bo acquired, the business of a House consisting of a hundred and seventy-five members, in a hull the acoustic advantages of which are no toriously bad, must, cease until, on motion of Mr.,Tones, Hon. John Smith, of somewhere and entirely unknown to fame, can be extended tho courte sies of the .House, A seat upon the floor is properly a recognition of transcendent abilities, of tried and honorable public service, and is a custom not to bo'prostltuted to the purposes of every specimen of small game, who, front some slight cause or fancy of his friends, delights in the prefix of Colonel or Major, and the very object of whoso visit, per haps, is to lobby through some scheme of personal benefit. A point ed and practical satire upon the abuse of the custom was gotten off by a prominent member of the lust House, who, after favorable action upon several resolutions inviting the Hon. Mr. Huoh-a-onc, and Col. So and-so, to scats upon the floor, sent to the Speaker’s stand tho following: •'Unsolved, That the seats upon the floor of this House are Occupied alreaily." The custom of extending these in vitations lias, of late years, grown to a degree of frequency which utterly deprives it of any supposed merit in the invited, or appreciation und good taste in tho would-be host. It would bo well for members fooling them selves disposed to reap this species of popularity, to remember that Alex ander the Great, after having con quered the Hast, was disposed lo treat with disdain tho invitation of the citizens of Megara to the freedom of their city, and that lie accepted it with complacency only when inform ed that it laid never been tendered to any one except. Hkucui.eh and himself. MiiueczliucH. Tho estate of Clows will not, pay more than 2."> cents on the dollar. That’s about tho value of tiro Radical party at the present writing. Clews' chum, li. I. Kimball, must have paid dollar for dollar, as ho seems to have a good surplus left. The Lancaster (Pa.) Express of a recent, date gives an account of a dar ing attempt to murder a mail carrier and rob a mail, in one of those law abiding Pennsylvania counties. This did not occur on the “Chattahoochee border,” consequently will not be found in Howard Carroll’s correspon donce. “One by one the roses fall,” and now Wilkes’ Spirit, the editor of which was a boon companion of Grant a few years ago, is calling vig orously for tho impeachment of the President, because of his Louisiana misdeeds. Lieutenant Colonel Bradley, of the 9th Cavalry, telegraphs to army head quarters at St. Louis that Captain Henry, who was sent some weeks ugo with a detachment to compel a party of miners to leave the Rlaek Hills, had returned to Sheridan village, the whole command being badly frozen. The New York Times (Republican) entirely disapproves of the project to order a now election in Louisiana un der Federal supervision. It says: “It, is substantially a substitution of Federal agencies for Stato agencies. It is an assumption by Congress of the power to interfere indefinitely in State elections.” The present King of Spain bears the title of Alfonso XII. The King who reigned as Alfonso Xt was known as the avenger, and his kingly power was exercised from 1921 till his death, in 1350. So that it was just 525 years between the two Alfonsos. A Boston journal wants Congress to pass a bill abolishing the office of Lieutenant General, but Little Phil, is not afraid. A Northern paper says there are 75.0(H) iwsons out of employment in Massachusetts who do not take any pride in Plymouth Rock, and would not care if it wore broken up into sinkers to drown cats with, Tho Philadelphia board of lawyers refused to admit Miss Carrie S. Burn ham to the bur, although she has studied law for three years. General Logan, In his flaming Lou isiana speech In the Senate, declared his purpose to “stand by the ship” of Grant and liis party at all hazards. We hope he may, for when the rotten craft goes down, as it will go down in 1876, wo want the whole piratical crew to go down together to the bot tom of the sea. Tis not always the most prominent men who get the most prominent po sitions. Senator Logan lacks only fifteen or twenty things to make him an orator at least, the Now York Tribune thinks so, uuil it is not wrong. Postoffick Embezzlement. John son, the colored postofltoe official that was convicted of purloining goods and letters that passed til rough tho office, and put under a fifteen hundred dollar bond, was re-arrested yesterday by an affidavit sworn out bv Major E. P. Chamberlain, special agent of the Postofflce Department, charging him with stealing a shawl sent by a lady in Michigan ns a Christ mas present to her daughter in At lanta, 1 It ATLANTA LETTER. Apodal Correspondence Daily Tim km. J Atlanta, Ga., Jun. 19,1875. The usual routine of business was transacted in each House to-day, con sisting of Gills on first and second reading. Mr. Crawford, in the Sen ate, introduced a bill to amend the act creating a Board of Commission ers for Roads and Revenues of Mus cogee county. This amendment sim ply provides that one member of this Board after 1875 shall be selected an nually by tho Grand Jury at the spring term of your Court. The Grand Jury at the spring term, 1875, by the operation of this bill, will elect three Commissioners one to serve three years, one two years, the ot her one year. Hon. L. M. Felton, member elect from 7th District to Congress, lias been invited to and will address the people in Representative Hall to night. Mr. Felton was the independ ent candidate who beat Col. Dabney (the regular nominee) 76 votes. It is already understood that Fel ton’s friends will urge him to beeomo an independent candidate for Gover nor at next election, when we opine his ambitious schemes by that route will very suddenly terminate. Inde pendent candidates may do in his re gion, but the necessity for party or ganization in middle, southern and southwestern Georgia to any man who desires to defeat Radical rule is evident. Mr. Felton is said to be a clever citizen, is a fair speaker and when excited in debate is very interesting and sometimes strong. To-morrow (Wednesday) night Hon. B. n. Hill speaks at the same place on Louisiana affairs. Mr. Hill’s chances to succeed McMillan are increasing. It is now claimed that ho is still a citi zen of the 9th, notwithstanding his family remain in Atlanta and his of fice and business are likewise here. There is a growing disposition on tho part of the people generally to over look the last political inconsisten cies of this gentleman, at least so fur as to have him occupy a seat in Congress. This change lie lias wrought despite many foibles, by force of his great talent. His ad dress is looked to with much interest and will doubtless be a masterly ef fort. Mr. Hill, however, can not walk over the truck. Already the names of some eight or ten aspirants have been men tioned. Wore the people divided on any great question of State policy, it would be better for legislation if the Georgia Legislature were not so po litically unanimous. In the Senate is but one Republican und forty-three Democrats -no colored members. The House is divided in near the same proportion, having, however, three colored members, the blackest of whom is Blue. So long us the pol icy mill life of the Republican party is such as it is, to make capital for party ends, from the impositions which they sock to put upon the Southern States, so long will they find the people united to withstand their political assaults; and so long will every other object, save protec tion to their most vital interest. In lost sight of, and it con be safely pre dicted, that two years hence there will not lie in (he General Assembly of Georgia, a single Republican vote. L. A. W. • ♦ • Special Correspondence Daily Timkm.J Talbotton, Ga., Jan. 19, 1875. No topic of late lias been wi fruitful of comment as that of tho weather, which Ims been uniformly moist for three weeks, with an occasional ex ception of a sunny day. This condi tion has not, however, interferred very seriously with the locomotion of the people, for almost daily wo see loaded cotton wagons cn route to market, and witness the usual stir of travel and business about our streets. LABOR. There is no dearth in tho supply of labor, and planters have secured what they wished at reasonable prices. Efficient workers can be had at figures ranging from SBO to $125. Little as yet can be suggested as to the manner in which the farmers will “pitch” their crops. A more conser vative policy is obtaining as to the planting of bread crops, and much attention is being paid to prepara tions for the year's work, such us cleaning fences, repairing buildings, re-opening ditches, etc., all of which is of prime moment to the husband man who expects to make farming a paying business. FF.UTII.tZEUK. We think we are safe in the esti mate when we state then- will not be fifty tons of guano purchased in Tal bot county this year. The general ver dict, is that they do not “pay,” and many are beginning to question whether they have ever benefitted tho farming interest as a class. One fact connected with fertilizers is cer tain : they have contributed largely to the depletion of the money resour ces of the country, leaving annually the poor farmer in the lurch for the profits. The people are waking up on the subject of home fertilizers, and begin to realize tiiat they cannot afford to pay large prices for worth less compounds, or for those of more genuine pretensions. A revolution in this industry is much needed to insure more certain results to the country at large. THE LEGISLATURE. In no time in the history of Ha state lias the probable action of any General Assembly been so anxiously looked for as at present. Many im portant measures are awaiting tlie touch of the “State’s assembled wis dom,” and much reformation in some departments of the government is earnestly needed. Most prominent among those matters which will ugi tate the public pulse is tho question of a Constitutional Convention. Gov. Smith in his message to the Legisla ture lias some sensible suggestions on tills subject, which seems to be growing in interest in oil sections of the State. Should the Legislature Uooido to submit this question to tho people for decision we doubt not tho result would be vastly in the affirmative. The finances of tho Stato seem to call for such action, so faros tho bonded debt is concerned. Tho people are anxiously looking for a quietus to be given the much dis cussed “bond question,” and other reforms should be effected t hut would at once and forever estop the endorse ment of railroad bonds by the State. COUNTY OFFICERS. As you published, a few days since, an imperfect report of our county election, wo furnish below a list of those elected: Ordinary,GeorgeN. Forties; Clerk, James E. McNiel; Sheriff, J. Hnmp Harvey; Treasurer, W. N. Bacon ; Re ceiver, J. T. Parker; Collector, (.'has. E. Dozier; Surveyor, J. H. Richards; Coroner, William Burge. The election passed off quiet ly, and tlie successful ticket gives general satisfaction. THE DAILY TIMES. We must not omit saying something | of this enterprise, so favorably has it been received by tfie people of this, section. Your efforts to furnish an acceptable paper will meet with a hearty co-operation in tho patronage of our people. It is well received by every one, and all express themselves pleased with the of its columns, and the enterprise mani fested in its general typographical excellence. “Much success to the Times” is the hearty wish of your tut-, merous friends. Qcilliam. UEttlMilA NEW". Mr. J. G. Parks has become asso- j elute editor of the Dawson Journal. A brass band is in process of, manufacture in Waynesboro. -Mr. Lewis J. Groce, one of the oldest and best known citizens of Macon, died Monday. Harris says; There is but one black man in the House, and he is Blue. The first annual convention of | the Young Men’s Christian Associa tion of Georgia will be held in Au gusta on the llth of February. The Atlanta News lias commenced Hie inevitable Legislative biogra phies. They are doubtless interesting to the parties concerned. Mr. W. B. Hull, of Macon, has re ceived the appointment of Major of Engineers in the Armory of the Khe dive of Egypt, and left for his new field of labor. Waynesboro is happy. An organ grinder reached there last week, and couldn’t get away on account of Hie weather. The Expositor says: ‘‘lt’s an ill wind that blows no good.” Dr. Felton, Representative elect, addressed tho citizens of Atlanta on Tuesday night, and H. H. Hill was to address them last night. The latter upon Louisiana. Anew savings bank lias just gone I into practical operation at Macon, with a capital of $50,000. J. M. ' Iloardman, Esq., is President of the Rank, and Mr. H. T. Powell is| cashier. Already, when a member of the Georgia Legislature can think of nothing else to do, lie proposes to tinker with the code. T'lmt book gives him a wide scope for legislative amusement. Ex. And a big scope for spending the ! tax-(layers’ money. The "Ladies’ Memorial Associa tion,” of Augusta, have sl2,into on hand, $2,000 of Which are to be de voted to plaeing head stones over tin* soldiers’graves at theceinetery. Ex change. In addition, Augusta has erected a monument to her dead heroes, and !so have Atlanta and Savannah. It i gratifies us inexpressibly to note that I Columbus is, at last, aroused to a sense of her duty. Mr. Turnbull, of Banks, has pre pared a bill proposing that the rental money of the Western A Atlantic Road shall be used in paying the in terest on the Nutting bonds, instead j of being applied to educational pur poses. The Rome Courier i, 'ins the faith ; ful band and suggests Hon. It. II Hill | as a suitable person to succeed Hon. ! Garnett McMillan (Dorn.) as the Rep resentative of the Ninth District. As ' Mr. Hill does not even reside in that | district, its citizens should be very I grateful for the kiud selection made for them. They need not apprehend I any trouble about Mr. M.’-t accept ance. “Barkis is willing,” but he lacks luck and popular appreciation on the part of the public. In a recent speech delivered by j Senator Logan in theV. S. Senate. 1 in- sent to the Clerk’s desk a copy of j the Atlanta .Yea's, and had read an ! editorial in which, after referring to J Sheridan’s banditti dispatch, it sug gested that lie might ornament a lamp-post quite as soon as the White I League leaders would grace a gal lows, if his views were adopted Gy Grant. In reply Senator Gordon said [ that the News “did not reflect the I sentiment of the people of Georgia, nor of the Democratic party of that State.” And further, that the editor i (Mr. Abrams) “did not belong to the | Democratic party; * * * he did not | support the Democratic candidate at 1 the last election, but on the contrary i supported the opposition,” referring to tho fact that the News supported | Dr. Felton in his independent rare I for Congress. The News denies the l imputation. On last Sunday evening, the six o’clock outgoing passenger train on the Air Line Railroad met with an accident, which was remarkable for tho small damage done, considering the seriousness of the accident. Just opposite tho cemetery, and about a mile from the city, where the Georgia and Air Lino roads meet, was the scene of the casualty. At this (dace is an embankment some ten feet high. Tho train had taken its depar ture as usual at six o’clock, and was booming along at the rate of proba bly twelve or fifteen miles per hour, the engineer was just settling down to his long task of about fourteen hours, tlie fireman was chucking in wood, initiating his hard night’s work, tho engine (the No. 8, Me- Aden), under tlie skill of the engi neer, was puffing and snorting like a wild Arabian steed. John Corrigan, the express messenger,was in his ear. lying on his money safe, both arms Hugging it, and a couple of Colts for pillows,' and the passengers were pre paring the seats and cushions in Mu most convenient manner possible for a night’s rest, when all of n sudden came the terrible crisis. The engi neer, of course, saw that the switch was out of l lace, and he reversed his snorting steed, but she had too much headway, and would not immediately be controlled. Off she rolled, and ran a few yards, and then tumbled down the bank, bringing the first (or express) cur along with her. Fortu nately, the engineer was not hurt, but the fireman hud a leg broken, and re ceived some other slight injuries. John Corrigan, the express messen ger, when found in his ear, had a pis tol cocked, standing over his safe, and it was only by the greatest per suasion that he was enticed away, re marking that lie was too old a chick en to lie caught in n trap. —Atlanta News. • ♦ • Confederate Forces.
