DAILY TIMES. (!oliimbuH. <*.♦ TUESDAY ..FEBRUARY 2. 1875. r. ||. WII.MAMN. - - - KUUur. The Tint * Oltl< .• 1m in Uuuby's (up stairs), on Ht. Clair street. ' ‘ Tin* Lien Uw. Tho farming and mercantile public are laubtliHs aware of tho fact, that our lMt Legislature rojieulod the far mer’s Lion law. Now, we are oppos ed to all class legislation on general principles, and as this Lien law conies under that head, we are as readily op posed to tirut But when we come to consider the law ns applicable to the Immediate advantage of tho fanner, we are forced to tho conclusion that the law giving the commission mer chant a lien should be re-enacted by tiio>presut Legislature. Why should such a law exist? We answer In plain and unmistakable language, that un less such a law is passed by the Legis lature, that the farmers of Georgia will not be able to make a crop. Thai Idea of ours meets the question, and it is correct, for nine-tenths of the farming public must have supplies during the year, and no business man will consent to advances unless he is I secured against loss. As said above, we are opposed to class legislation; but when the neces-. sitiee of the times demand It, wo are in favor of It on the ground of public policy. Our people are too ixjor to cultivate the land and live without aid, and it behooves the Legislature to pass a law by which they euu give the secur ity to enable them to obtain advances for tho coming year. This law to re jieal the Lien law is too sudden, and takes many farmer* by surprise, not enabling theta to provide against it; while if the law provided that within a given number of years the law should be unnulled, all would be right. The short cotton crop, and the disastrous year preening, lias placed without the reach of the farming pub lic the privilege of running their own farms. No set of people more hearti ly desire the ability to run their own business than the fanners, but cir cumstances have placed it beyond their power to do so this year. We simply suggest, and respectfully urge, that t lie Legislature re-enact I lie Lien law, and make the law expire in a given time, say within three years. That will enable tho farmer to under stand fully Ids condition, and lo pro vide against it ill the future, witli a knowledge that after three years lie can get no advances on his crop, he will learn to plant more corn and raise his supplies at home. As the law now stands, the farmers have no money or supplies for this year, and they are unable to make a crop wii li mit the aid of our commission mer chants. These merchants cannot, In safety to themselves, advance the money unless they are indemnified in some way. A refusal on the part of our Legisla tors to givo these facilities to the far mers will be a direct prohibition to them in making n crop this season. By gradual legislation they can soon bring the farmers and the public to a cash basis, but, they cannot do it by such a sudden law as the one now rc ]>euling and cutting off all help from capitalists. We are opposed to the law upon principle, but public neces sity and the requirements of the times induces the belief tlmt such a law is the salvation of our agricultur al interest. Home are opposed to such u law m>on high grounds,but wtien they re flect the great good it will subserve, must forego their opinions and look to the general good of the people. Wo hope the Legislature will, with out fail, pass a law by which the far mers will bo enabled to get supplies until they can, by proper foresight, become their own commission mer chants, ntul own their own lorn-cribs and smoke-houses. Our fhaiiibrr of f'onimrrrr ami the Texas X Paeifle Kallroail. We dislike to see any important enterprise in the South in the hands of non-resident or even transient de velopers, wtio advance said enterprise just so long us it puts money in their pockets and our section pays tho bills. This is to some extent the condition of the Texas & Pacific Kailroad. Tom Scott and his friends, who never had a sympathy or interest in common with our people, are now asking Con gress for aid in completing the road, which has fallen into their hands. In no othor way can the road lie se cured, and we are too keenly alive to the interest of our section not to wish these developers success in this pro ject. Savannah would be tho nearest Atluutio port, mid Columbus would 1)0 on the direct lino between the two oceans. Tho lino of road already eon strueted, via Macon, Oulumhos, Mont gomery, Meridian, Vicksburg, and Monroe, La., continued by the pro jected line of the Texas & Pacific Hoad, does not vary tho half of n de gree north and south from a straight line drawn from Savannah to San Diego, the western terminus. Colum bus, therefore, has an immediate and direct interest in the completion of tills road ; and we would suggest that, if consistent with the views of the members, the Chamber of Commerce and City Council, ulso, should adopt resolutions requesting our Represen tatives in both houses of Congress to aid in securing the passage of Tom Scott's measure. The material inter ests and commercial prosperity of our whole country, and particularly the great South, imperatively demand a connection by mil with the Paeifle coast which shall be five from tho climatic influences that militate against those lines already construct ed, and which shall open up new fields' of agricultural and mineral wealth to our country: and believing that tho Texas & Paeifle Railway Oompanv embodies these advantages, and Is of" vital importance to t lie de velopment of our resources, we favor it. Tom Scott included. Letter from tarrrolltnii to Hall) 'Mate*. ,C.u#pLLToib Oa., Jan. :>, 1*75. During the daysjof tho North and South Koad I got accustomed to read ing tile old Daily Sun, and I assure you there has been quite a void since Its suspension until supplied by the welcome appearance of the Times. I like your views on the extension of our road, for I have not yet given up the North and South. lam only one of a very largo number who think its projectors will yet receive the praise duo for inaugurating one of the few sensible pout helium railway schemes. Complete it to LaGrange and it will slowly but surely find Its way to the Tennessee line. Our entire population is excited over tho mineral wealth now being developed in this vicinity. 11. J. Wood has sixty teams hauling copper ore to the terminus of the Savannah, Griffin and North Alabama Railroad. His not profits are between four and five hundred doliarsaday. The gold interest is looming into iuqiortanee. I heard Capt. Jack White read a let ter a few days ago from the Brown University, stating that, ore submit ted to the skillful analysis afforded by that institution yielded forty-nine ounces of pure gold to the ton, worth SI,OOO. You see that we will be pre pared to give the Narrow Gauge some freights when the trains roach our country. Send me your Daily for six months, and a copy of your Weekly j to A. G. G and M. C , Carroll ton. Respectfully, Wm. M . Domestic incidents are thus deli cately outlined by the Indianapolis Hernia !.- “Mr. James Iliff, hatter of the period and capper of the interro gation point, if not the climax, hav ing been a soldier, is now doing all that in him fifth to repair the waste of war. Mr. Iliff is the father of a small Sunday-school procession of rosy-faced infants, in various stages of development-, to which he is eon- ; stautly adding to at brief intervals as Is admissible in respeotoble society. Mr. Iliff’s last contribution to the census is a lovely cherub of the lady persuasion, which lias diurnally ex panded its little lungs in this vale of tears for the space of one week. The question of name arises. We have a suggestion. Mr. Iliff, it will be re membered, lias the agency in this city for several popular brands of lmts, among them'tho Amidon. Why not call tlio little angel Amidon V Only, if we were him. we would spell it ‘Am T done ?’ ” • -♦ • Trial of J. I*. Ilorluirli, Most of our readers remember Mr. ■I. P. Horbaeh, who during the war and immedately thereafter kept the l’erry House in this city. A month since he killed H. K. Thomas, at Dal las, Texas. The following from a Galveston pa|>r explains t lie result . Tiie trial of J. P. Horbaeh, at Dal las, Texas, for tho murder of H. K. Thomas, resulted In a verdict of mur der in thesecond degree, and the jury fixed tile term of imprisonment at six years. The defense will move for a new trial. A hehmit about thirty -two years old has been found in a dense forest on a mountain near Wilkosbarre, 'Pa., who will not give his name, but says that being a South Carolinian lie went through the war us a Confederate sol dier, and that his father and two brothers were killed in the same ser vice. He lias traveled through the country for several months, but. being unable to got employment lias retired to the forest to five on crackers and dried beef at a cost of ten cents a day rather than beg. Ho expects to leave the forest in the spring if he is alive. Under the bill for calling a consti tutional convention in Georgia, the congressional districts have the fol lowing representations: first district , vote 1874, 18,111)7, 34 delegates; second district, vote 31,*87, audelegutes ; third district, vote 13,870*, 38 delegates; fourth district,votey.tiiii,33 delegates ; fifth district 18,723, 36 delegates; sixth district, vote 12,763, 30 delegates; sev enth district, vote 15,280, .33 delegates: eighth district, vote 6,831, 30 dele gates; ninth district, vote 10,203. 32 delegates. Nashville correspondent Cincin nati Commercial says: For the benefit of the editors of certain Administra tion papers, and to save them the trouble of seeing a second rebellion in the vote Jeff. Davis received for Senator yesterday, I will state the man who done it is a sou of a Federal general, and was, I tlijuk, himself in the Union army during the war. Andrew Johnson will soon have a change to badger Grant and bully Oonkling. If he will let himself loose ou general prim'd dee* and forget that he was ever President, he may do the country some service. The Augusta Coiustitutiwuifirt takes old Audv Johnson’s measure prett\ accurately. It says; Andrew John son was the man who kept the border States from joining the Confederacy. He was the man who proposed to “make traitors and treason odious," meaning Jefferson Davis and Robert E. Lee. He made a drunken speech when inaugurated as Vice President ; and, during a del much, connived at the murder of Mrs. Surratt. He was also the author of that $20,000 clause, which disfranchised enough Southern men to hand tlie Southern States, bound hand and foot, over to negroes and carpet-baggers. It is possible, and very probable, that ho has long ago repented of many of these atro cious deeds; the more so, ns the Rad cul Republicans made use of him at first and sought to destroy him when squeezed dry of deviltry. When lie felt the groundslipping from beneath him, and his dead-reckoning in State craft all wrong, no one cried out more lustily for the guarantees of the con stitution : and we have to thank him at least for the candor in confessing , that, should tho Radical programme be carried out, as it lias been, Jeffer son Davis and Robert E. Lee would descend to posterity in the same cat egory of renown us Hampden and Sydney. The Savannah races commenced yesterday. 6EOE6IA NEW*. ('apt. Jno. Lama, of Savannah,is ■ dead., UIU Roseirmiij colored, was hung at Morgan, Calhoun county, on Fri day. A bale of cotton weighing 1,035 pounds was received in Augusta the other day. —Several eases of scarlet fever arc j reported in the lower part o£ the uity , of Savannah. : —The Journal says Marietta lias re | ceived over so,ooo bales of cotton fids | season. It is proposed to appoint an unia nuensU for each of the Supreme Court ! Judges, whose saluly slmll lie paid by [ the State. Mrs. Nancy Lester, aged 101 years, and Mrs. Athusia Earl, aged ill years, died last week one in Madison, and the other in Gordon county. The Adrerlitter says crime costs I Chatham county $40,000 per annum all absorbed in detecting and punish ing criminals and running the courts. —The Albany Netm says Mr. Henry C. Williams, a highly esteemed citi zen of Baker county, died of “heinor hagic malarial” fever on the 20tli Inst. The Augusta Board of Underwrit ers have forwarded a protest against Hemitor Reese’* insurance bill, to the Richmond delegation in the Legisla ture. The first annual Convention of the Young Men’s Christian Associa tion of Georgia will be held in Angus- 1 ta February 11th. A number of sub jects of general interest will be sng- j gested for discussion. Pio Nino College was dedicated in ! Macon on Sunday evening. Pope Pius the IXth, from a bed of sickness away in Rome, forwarded to this Col lege, with ills blessings, a splendid j statue of the Virgin Mary. The students of the (State Univer-! sity have revived the “Georgia Uni rerrihj Magazine,” with H. G. McLen don Term, editor ; P. Alexander Htov ull and Jno. C. Hart, of the Demos- i theniun Society, and Win. H. Flem ing and T. R. Clark, of the Phi Cuppa Society, assistant editors. H. H. Gor-| don and D. W. Rountree are the busi-! ness managers. The Hawkinsville Dir/intrh esti mates that three thousand bales of cotton are now stored in the three warehouses in that place, and that fifteen hundred more are in the coUn- 1 try to come in. The Hawkinsville j folks are bestirring themselves to re-; build the houses burned last week. Lumber and brick will be trumps j down there for weeks to eouie. V 1,411 ttf t NHWI. Ten families have returned to Macon county, Ala., from Texas, dis gusted with the State. Jim Goode, of F.ufauln. has been ] given free quarters in Wetumpka, at the expense of the State. —Roads in Russell and Lee counties are almost impassible. Farmers are unable to do anything in the farm. The vilest thief yet has been de veloped at Opelika. He broke into | tiie corner stone of the now Episcopal | Church and stole the articles depos ited therein. Tiie Selma Echo and the Selina i Timer both condemn a bill which passed the House a few days ago. au thorizing the levy of additional tax in Dallas county for a pauper fund. In tiiis opposition these papers ex press the wishes of the tax-payers of] that county, and they hope that the , Senate vvili not pass the bill. < i.irriM:*.. There’s only one soldier left in !

Since tiie high hats for ladies came into fashion, a trapeze perform ance is tiie only thing that can be seen at a theatre without hindrance. Charles Sprague, the venerable banker poet, who has just died in Boston at the age of 83 years, was on a railroad train only once in his life. A California man advertises for ! a wife, beauty no object, but wants j her friends to deposit fifteen hundred dollars with him a* security for her good behavior. There is nothing half so sail in fife 'as the spectacle of ail auctioneer at ] tempting to sell sls.uuo worth of ! goods to an audience whose aggro : gate and tangible assets foot up tliii - I t y cents. I —Some physiogomists say that the ] hack of a man, his head, etc., show Ids real self more truly t han his face, with its trained and conscious expres sion, in which he seeks to reveal or hide such parts of his nature us he sees lit. Paris lias successfully introduced the American horse railway, or “train." as it is styled there. The cars used are small, having accommo dation for only twenty.eight passen gers, ten of whom stand on the plat form and pay a reduced fare, being considered second-class passengers. Recently in an English theatre the stage manager struck a supernu merary who had exasperated him be hind the scenes, whereupon the su pernumerary came before the foot lights and formally announced to the | audience that he had resigned. Tiie j announcement occasioned a great ' deal of liiliarty. \ —Anotlierof those absorbing little I Paris stories : “A lady attended the 1 last hnl marque out of more curiosity, j She wore a pretty pink domino which ' made her particularly conspicuous, j She supped, and when she Left the ball she found she had drauk too much champagne. A policeman put his ; hand on her shoulder and she sank | down horrified at the idea of being taken off to the station-house. When | they picked her up she was dead: : she tiled from fright. So the body was taken off to the Morgue clad in its carnival finery, and there ia was. recognized the next day by the hus band. Tiie Detroit Free Prerr; “The ( 'om'ier-JoHrnal says that ‘a United States Senator is alleged to have a letter from a clergyman offering him SSO to use his influence to get the reverend gentleman the job of pray ing for the Senate." The Courier- Journal forgot to say, though, that all the praying that could possibly be done there wouldn't do fifty dollars , worth of good. “Our Nellie” and Air. Sartoris have come over on a visit to mamma and papa at the White House. It is ex pectcd, with what truth we are not [ prepared to assert, that three mem | bers of tiie family will return across . t he seas. A. M.
