Wc appealed some days ago to the members of our Chamber of Com merce and City Council to give some expression upon the IfniHjrlance of the Southern Pacific Railroad, hop in,'that their action would be em bodied in a request to our represen tatives in the National Legislature to aid its pnssne. We agree with an exeliange that the Importance of the road to the whole country cannot be estimated. The value of a national railroad communication between the Pacific and Atlantic, that cun be used the year round, Is something simply j immeasurable. To the South the necessity of this road Is beyond expression. From all iwrts of the South un appealing voice Is going up to Washington for the General Government to foster the great enterprise. The Chamber of Commerce of New Orleans Issued last March a most elo quent, memorial to Congress in be half of the measure, urging that it will opthi up to the country a com mercial empire. Tho Chamber of Commerce of Memphis in April presented a no less eloquent memorial to the same end. The Nashville- Cotton Exchange In November plead for tho same great cause. The Louisville Board of Trade in March appealed to Congress for tho vast undertaking. The Augusta Exchange In November issued some urging resolutions for the “great na tional highway.” The Richmond Chamber of Commerce in April urged the consideration upon Congress that having munificently aided Northern and Western works the Government should now in justice assist the South. The Atlanta Board of Trade in March squarely invoked the aid of the Gov ernment, in this great work. The St. LouiH Merchants' Es ehange, the Texas State Grange, the Kentucky State Grange, nnd .the In-1 dianapolis Board of Trade, uls6 have spoken out In emphatic appeal for this colossal railway. Perhaps the most elaborate and aide presentation of the subject was made by the St. j Louis Merchants’ Exchange, whose masterly and exhaustive memorial covered the whole stupendous sub ject. The States of Texas and Missouri have, by their Legislatures, passed strong resolutions endorsing the great enterprise and urging Congress to aid it. The solemn and authorita tive action of these great States is es pecially impressive. The telegraph lias brought us the Intelligence that the South Carolina Legislature had passed res olutions of the same character. We appeal to our own General As sembly now in session, and to our Chamber of Commerce and City Council and the granges everywhere to take the matter under considera tion, and help give an impetus to the grandest railroad scheme of the cen tury. • -*- • And now we have It that the Repub licans in Congress propose to revive the Iron-clad test oath, in order to prevent, fifty-three members of the next Congress from taking their seats. This is one of the desperate devices suggested to prolong the miserable existence of the Radical party and prevent a reform, which Is inevitable. It is the old story about Mrs. Parting ton over Again. Sydney Smith tolls us that there whs a storm at Sid mouth. A great Hood hail set In up on that, town, the tide rose to an in credible height, tlio waves rushed in upon the houses, nnd everything was threatened with destruction. In the midst of this sublime and terrible scene. l)ame Partington, who lived upon the beach, was seen at the door of her house mop in hand, trundling her mop, squeezing out tlie water and vigorously pushing back tin- Atlantic Ocean. The Atlantic was roused, and so was the spirit of Mrs. Partington; but tho contest was unequal and the Atlantic Ocean .beat Mrs. Partington. ‘She was excellent at a slop or puddle,' adds the great reformer, ‘but she should not have meddled with tho tempest.’ The moral applies to Congress as well as it did to the British Parlia ment. Mrs. Partington will be again beaten Courier-,TnMrnnl. The Sherman (Texas! Register says: Tho Dallas Hcntitl publishes a card of thanks from Hon. H. Haro, presiding judge, and Sheriff Barkley, to the large audience in attendance on the trial of Horbaeh, in that city, for their quiet and orderly behavior. We sup pose quiet and order on such occa sions are so unusual in Dallas that these officers thought it worthy of tin expression of thanks. The following is the lament of the of a Northern “help." What would a Georgia negro do under such cir cumstances ; We must keep the furnace and range lireK just at the right heat ; must never put on too much coal, and must never lot them burn too low; must have the cakes and beefsteak ready at the right mo ment ; must watch for the milkman; must hunt up the baker, clean t he kitchen, wash the dislies, attend to the bell; tell the lady of the house that fourteen book-peddlers, nine venders of shoe-strings and eleven persons are soliciting alms for all objects, from tho erecting ft monument to Wither spoon to sending box of toys to the Fiji Islanders. It is said that u poor-box in Phila delphia received but four cents during the year 1874. Charity was doubtless kept so busy hiding Philadelphia's multitude of faults that she had no time to do any thing for the poor. Ol'R ATLANTA I.KTTBW. I • ■’. —. Kpufinl CurroHitoxidi-uce D.IIU I imen.J Atlanta, Ga., Feb. lb, 187.7. Tito Legislature has finally done I something that will please tho peo ple, and if not the entire people, ccr | tainly the inhabitants of Mclntosh [ county, for they seated Mr. Burnell, ; who was the regularly elected mem ber. He takes tlie place of Tunis Ot. Campbell,*negro, who had been son- I fenced to work on a Railroad, but bis sentence is in abeyance until his case jis tried by the Supreme Court. All of I to-day has been consumed in the ar gument by the House, of the repeal |of the Homestead law of 1808. The : measure was ably argued by a ntlm j her of gentlemen but it was lost, tho j vote being 8(f for repeal, and 69 against it, it being an amendment to | the Constitution, required a two thirds vote. Mr. Grimes, of Mitseo- I gee, voted for the repeal. While this law repealed tlie present Hotne stead law, it allowed the same ex emption as was in force prior to tlie adoption of the present Constitution. In the Senate, tlie resolution to | call a convention was defeated by a j large vote. The Senate also refused |to concur in the House bill to ex ! empt one hundred dollars worth of j personal property from taxation. There can be no correct opinion formed us to what will be tlie fate of cither of the above mentioned bills, |us they will move to recon- I sider, or refer to some com mittee. There are several impor tant measures set. down for appointed i days. There is nothing of imjiortnnce going ori that is of any local import | anon to Columbus, except the bill to appoint Miss Green to the vacancy lu j the Trusteeship of the Georgia State ! Lottery. Your readers are aware of the fact that tho vacancy was occa sioned by the deuth of Mrs. Williams, of your city. It. seems that Mrs. Wil j limns willed the grant to her daught er,and the question uowarises wtietii i or it was such n grant ns was suscept ible of being Inherited, and, if not, then whether the Legislature has the right to appoint to the vacancy the act incorporating the lottery not spe cifying whether that shall not be j done or not, Miss Green is a noble woman, and Iter friends base her claims for the place on her patriotism and care of Confederate soldiers. The friends of the other side claim the Legislature lias no right to interfere in the matter, but that it is a question for tlie courts to decide. It is very probable t hat nothing will be done in the premises. I hope I may be pardoned for send ing the Times tlie tribute paid its ed itor’s mother, but I do so, knowing nil in Columbus endorse it. The fol lowing brief tribute, paid by a learn ed gentleman, was placed upon the desks of the members. Speaking of this claim, he concludes by asking: If the legal rights involved arc to In- dis regarded for t tie consideration of personal merit mid gratitude, to whom should tlie Representatives of Georgia sooner accord their support than to the daughter of Col. Charles J. Williams, who, after following the Mag of his country tluough the Mi xi can war to the very hulls of the Mimtezu nias, laid down lilh noble life ill defense of his native Slate, resisting tins encroach ments ot' the ting he once folk iwwl so brave ly. Of Mrs. Williams, for whose last, will and testament the respect of a legal adju dication is asked, it is unnecessary to speak to Georgians. Generous friend, faithful wife, Christian mother! in her loving heart first originated the thought of placing spring flowers upon the graves of the fall en heroes of her land. In our annals, no name so endeared, none so worthy or ns vered as hers ehamm el vena-able mimi n ' Of her devoted patriotism, of her inflexible loyalty to tlie principles in defense of which they perished whom wo honor, was the Atlanta Memorial and its sister asso ciations sprung. Constant, unshaken of soul, not cast down and made ashamed by the overthrow which betel our arms, but strongly exulting in the indestructible glo ries of the post, nnd serenely trustful of the future, she, first of Southern women, made annual public tribute to our Confed erate doiUl, and upon our associations en joined the active and lasting care of their heroic memories. “Many daughters have done virtuously, but thou r.r relb-nt them all." Strong in womanly courage, loving in womanly tenderness, rich in all womanly graces, abounding in generous deeds of benevolence, piety and patriotism, her beautiful life stood crowned at its close with public honors and private love. The question of tlie Lien law seems to puzzle the average legislator. Most of them are forced to re-enact the law, us their country constituency arc writing thorn letters daily of the pressing demand for the law. It may be nn unwise law, but the necessities of the pc ado require it. Atlanta is crowded with amuse ments for next week, but, from the looks of the people, they don't scent theatre hungry. There arc not near ns many strangers in tho city over looking and lobbying with the Legis lature as formerly. The citizens, and es[H'eially the ladies, are very regular in their attendance in the gallery. I will send you to-morrow Gov. Smith’s reply to the charges made by Sir. C. B. Howard and Howard’s rejoinder. Occasion at., • • 001. J. H. Blount writes to the Ma con Telegraph : Thy' Inst effort of Gordon was a grand one. Senators and Represen tatives frifm all sections are loml in its praise. Schurz and Bayard arc now inaugurating a movement to have one hundred thousand copies of it priuteil for circulation in the North ern States. I must say, I never was so impressed with grandeur of a mail in my life. The Minnesota House of Represen tatives have passed resolutions com manding that Hon. William King, one of the Represetatives of that State in tho forty-fourth Congress, shall appear before the Committee of Investigation at Washington, nnd state his connection with the Pacific Mail soandle, and vindicate himself, or failing therein, place his resigna tion in the hands of the Governor of Minnesota. Thebe are in tho United States 15ti firms and corporations oqgaged in the siik manufacture, with an aggre gate capital of $19,000,006, and with a force of 10,era operativss. New York has til of these establishments, Now- Jersey 30, Connecticut 22, and Mas saehussetts 12. ItrglMraUon lltll of Alabama The-fidlowing* bill bus just passed tho Aluliwna Senate. There is no doubt but tlie bill, as it reads, will be come tho law of Alabama, and wc, therefore, give It for the benefit of our Alabama readers: A IdU to provide for the registration of eleelor.s in this Utah'. .Section 1. lie it unacted L>> the Guu ! crul Assembly of Alabama, That the judge of probate, tlie sheriff, and the clerk of the circuit court of cadi coun ty, orany two of them, if one fails to act, shall, on the first Monday of March in each year, or so soon there after as practicable, appoint a regis trar of electors for each election pre cinct or ward in their rcsiiective coun ties, who shall lie n resident freehold er or householder in such precinct or ward. Should a vacancy occur in the ofllee of registrar, or if a registrar should be excused from acting n such, the officers above named shall, forthwith, appoint a registrar. See. 2. Be it further enacted, That the registrar of electors before enter ing upon the duties of his office, shall take nnd subscribe the oath of office, prescribed by article 15 of the consti tution, which oath must tic filed in the office of the judge of probate.

Be if further enacted, That cadi elector desiring to vote must register his name in the precinct or ward in which he resides, and in no other. See. 4. Bo it farther enacted. That all electors, whether now registered or not, must register anew under the provisions of this act, but the provi sions of litis act shall not apply to any local, special or municipal elec tion held prior to the first Monday in | April, 1876. Sec. 5. Beit, further enact.-I, That the registration lists shall be dosed 1 from and after Tuesday, two weeks prior to the general election of each ! year, and no person can register his | name ns an elector after tlie lists are so dosed, till after the ensuing elec tion (except that those who may b •- come qualified electors after the lists ■ are closed, nnd before the day of the ensuing election; may register when the disabilities of non-age or non-res idence in the ,State or county shall be removed). The registration lists shall not be kept, o|>en except during the time specified in this section. And the registrar is hereby required to attend at the usual place of voting in each ward or precinct,, on the two last days tho registration lists un- to; lie kept open, from 10 a. m. till 4 p. m., and he shall post, up at the voting place, and two oilier plm- s in the precinct, written notice of tin* days upon which he will attend the voting place, for said purpose, ten days be- j fore such days.' See. (I. Be it further enacted. That j immediately after the dose of tho ] registration, as specified in tlie pre ceding section, the registrar shall make three lists for each voting place, of the names of the registered dec tors, in a fair and legible hand, and alphabetically arranged ; nnd one of which lists he shall forthwith put, up in a conspicuous public place, n.-arj the usual place or places of voting, in ! said product or ward : lie. shall fur nish one certified, direr hfs official sig nature, to be true and correct, to tho inspectors of the election where the j polls are open, and ho shall retain , the third. In like manner lie shall post up and furnish to the inspectors on the day of election, a list of the names of all electors who may have become qualified and registered elec tors after the dose of the registration lists, us specified in section 5 of this act. Sec. 7. Be it further enacted, That no elector, after once registering Ids haute, hliii 11 lie required to register anew’ so long as he resides in the same : election precinct or ward; but if lie should change his resilience from one precinct, or ward to another two weeks before a general election, ho must register hri name in the pm-1 duct, or ward to which he lias rentov- i ed, and notify the registrar of the precinct or ward to which lie has re moved ; but if he should change his. residence from one precinct, or ward to another, while.the registration lists are dosed, he may register in the precinct or ward to which tie has re moved. See. 8. lie it further enacted, That any oilicer or registrar, who neg- i loots, without a reasonable excuse, to . discharge any duty imposed upon , him by this act, or who violates anv such duty, is guilty of a tnisdemeun- j or, nnd upon conviction must be - not less than fifty nor more than five hundred dollars, at tlie dis- j oration of tho jury trying the same, j Bee. 9. Beit further enacted, That any person knowingly causing his name to be registered as an elector, without possessing the qualifications J required by tho constitution nnd the! acts of the General Assembly, or who shall knowingly register or vote un der an assumed or fill ,n name, is guilty of a felony, nnd uplift convic tion thereof, shall be imprisoned in the penitentiary not less than two nor more than five years, at tlie dis cretion of the. jury trying the same. Sec. pi. Be it further ennete.l. That registrars are entitled to the sum of ton cents for each name legally reg istered by them respectively, which sum must tic imid out of the county treusury.

Hoc. 12. Be it further enacted. That all laws and parts of laws in conflict, with the provisions of this act. lie nnd the same are hereby repealed. It is to bo hoped that tlie Georgia Legislature will pay all her debts, in eluding the claim of our townsman, I Yfr. Thwentt, before the claims of the Sharp Rifle Company's claim is ever considered. The rifles were furnish ed in 1801, and the services of our citi zens and soldiers furnished after wards. Thf. Hoc Crop.
