LARGEST DAILY OIEOULATION In Illy and Muhurb*. Tlie New Tttrirr BUI. Tho new Revenue bill Introduced In Congress by Mr. Dawes seems to meet with very general opposition. It only directly affects tho South in two particulars, to-wit: the increase of the tax on tobacco and whiskey. Tho Increase tax on tobacco Is not very groat, it being only four cents added to tho already enormous tux of twenty cents, making the lax now twenty-four cents per pound. The amount of tobacco raised and con sumed in tiro United States is con siderable, and tills increased tux will amount to a goodly sum. Tho most important part of tho en tire bill is tho increase of tax on dis tilled liquors. It proposes to tax all liquors, upon which tax lias not al ready been paid at the passage of the bill, one dollar per gallon, whether in distilleries, in the hands of dealers or bonded warehouses. This part of tho hill brings with it increased oppo sition, for usido from tho protests of the manufacturers, the average American statesman cannot live well j without it. Whether or not the bill: will pass is not known, but it is cor- j tain that if Grant has not a good sup- ‘ ply of free whiskey on hand he will veto it. Ho Is a daily consumer, by the wholesale, and when he Is de feated for the third term he will have to pay for it like others. The present tax on whiskey is sev enty cents, and the increased is thir ty; so hereafter the consumer will have to pay more taxes to the gov- j eminent. The distillers claim that it is only paying illicit distilling a pro-; inium, os it will drive many lawful j distillers out of tho legitimate mar ket. The revenue from matches is to he taken off, winch lakes off an annual income of two and a half million dol lars. The stamps on bank cheeks is to be continued. a mu To protect inn-keepers and common car riers in tills State. Section 1. Be It enact,*l by the General Assembly of Georgia, That hereafter inns held and owned by individuals, or their lessees or tenants, shall not be held and possessed and used for the benelltof the iiuldir, but for the exclusive use and en joyment and benefit of tho owners, or their lessees or tenants; and that sueti owner, lessee or tenant shall have the right ami privilege to receive and accommodate only such persons as ho or they may desire, uml to be accommodated and lodged only upon sueh terms and conditions as may he agreed upon. Sec. 9. Ho it further enacted, Ac., That uli conveyances, upon hind or water, here tofore held to be public, shall hereafter, whim the same are held and owned by in dividuals, joint stork companies, or corpo rations composed of individual stockhold ers, be held, deemed and considered pri vate, and tin' owners or persons control ling tlie same shall have the right to make all rules and regulations touching and re lating to the transportation of passengers and baggage and goods as to them shall seem meet; such rules and regulations to lio consistent with tlie right of absolute property therein, and also with Urn laws of this State. See. 3. Be it further enacted, ,Vr., That, tho common law rule relating to and de fining tlie duties of koefiers of inns and common carriers in receiving fcuests and transporting persons or goods, is hereby abolished. Tho above is a copy of the bill introduced in the Senate by our fel low-citizen, Hon. B. H. Crawford. It is a strike in the Tight direction, and shows him to be keenly alive to the wants of the people, in trying to have a law that will protect them from the iniquities and unfairness of tho Civil Rights bill, should it become a law. His bill is u good one, but we fear it would not stand the test of the con stitution, if applied to it; for, first of all, the constitution of the United States and all laws passed by Con gress shall have a .precedence over State constitutions and State laws. This being a State law, the courts would hold the laws of the United States parauuiuut to the State daw, and decide the bill In conflict with, if not in avoidance of, the Civil Rights bill. From our heart flows the earn est wish that such a bill as Mr. Craw ford's could become a law; for In such a law only is to be found se curity from tho intrusions incident to the Civil Rights bill, and the necessary disturbances that will be brought about by Its practical work ings. ■ ♦ * The Farmers. There seems to be a general com plaint among farmers yiat the recent rains and unpropitious weather have “ prevented a good start in preparing their lands. Wo earnestly trust that the seasons during tlie year will be favorable to large crops of corn, and such things os go to sustain the far-i mer at home, and that each one will make it his dut> to plant what lie : consumes, in preference to cotton. How many are going to carry on their farming operations wo do not know; for, in tho face of their pro test, the Legislature has refused to enact the lien law, which was almost the salvation of many of them. They will have to do tho very best they can ; but we would like to see all who need it, receive aid from our ware housemen, notwithstanding the abo lition of tlie lien law. Thk New York Tribune pays the speech of Senator Gordon the compli ment of print ing it in full as one of the ablest on tho Louisiana question and the general condition of the South delivered in Congress. It editorially speaks thus of the young Senator, who is winning golden opinions from both North and South: “Senator Gor don is a man of high character, and a fair representative of the largo class of Southern men of ability and cul ture who have accepted in good faith the results of the war, and are trying to restore their States to full fellow ship in the Union. Asa calm but el oquent vindication of the South of to day, his speech will repay perusal.” OI K mm.t I.KTTHR. Hpcelfct Corri*iond*tncc Daily Tjmkji.] Atlanta, Ga., Feb. l(i, 1575. It will be old news by tlie time tills reaches you, for mo to write that the Usury bill has passed the House, us your telegrams have already acquaint ed you with the result. The bill pro- I yoked a great deni of discussion, but : passed by a vote of til yeas to -11 nays, j Tho bill provides for a legal rate of j seven per cent., and allows a special contract for 12 per cent. This is much ■ bolter than 11 rut proposed, yet the : limitation of twelve per cent, is wrong 1 on principle, for it acknowledges the justice of a Legislative body fixing the prieo u man shall ask for ids money. Many amusing amendments were offered, among them the follow i ing’liy Dr. Colton, to show tho folly . of restricting money: i “That no person engaged in the va rious trades of commercial or agrieul- I tural pursuits shall charge a profit in j excess of seven per cent, upon tho ! amount invested in the articles pro-, posed or offered for sale.” The Legislature is still wasting time on prohibiting liquor selling hills. None of them pass, yet they are flow ing in, and of course eonsumo time in their reading. Nothing of special in terest is going on in eitiier House, since the Usury.bill discussion. To-uiorrow tho special order of the day is tlie discussion of the bill to re enact tho Lien law. There are uiuny I petitions from the farmers and mor ; chants for its passage, but it is feared that the wise Legislators will disre- I gard the expressed wishes of the far ; mers, and kill the bill. Atlanta is again crazy on the sub ject of lectures and amusements. Af ter ex-Gov. Vance’s elegant speech, Dr. Hickman appears on the pro gramme K> tell the Legislature how to quit drinking whiskey. This is a , theme much needed among them, ; and, if heeded, the people might be a ; little better off; but it is only consum j ing gas to talk ou that subject in At- J ianta. | The ladies gave a splendid enter tainment last night, denominating it “Cupid's Lull, or the Valentine par ty.” A dozen more entertainments are spoken of for the week. The public will be rejoiced over tlie rumor that the Legislature will not remain in session longer than the for ty days and nights. At one timo it was feared they would conclude to hold over. We had the pleasure of meeting the Mayor of your city, Mr. Mellhenny, j hero to-day. He is visiting Atlanta on business. Occasional, j Discussinci the political situation,! the Springfield Republican comes to this conclusion: “Tho average Amer- ! icon citizen is becoming very tired of i a husk diet. Neither of the existing parties is strong in itself; each is strong in tho weakness of the other. Tlie people are profoundly disgusted with the party in power, but they are j also profoundly distrustful of tho i party out of power, if they take up! with the Democracy next year it will j be merely because tlie disgust gets i the better of the distrust. A great I political opportunity, we repeat. We : dare say it will not be utilized." Thk whole Baptist population of the United States now exceeds 8,000,- (HH) onc-ilfth of the entire population of the nation. The statement is made in a European journal, that the num ber of Jews who have become Chris tians in'T’russia is about 5,000; in Am sterdam, Holland, C,4(H), and in Eng land at least 3,000. More than pm of these converted Jews have become ministers in tlie established Church uf England. Thk Chicago Journal says that Zueli. Chandler may be regarded as a political corpse. And it may he ad ded that the sooner the “demnitton body” is buried out of sight the bet ter for the purity of the atmosphere. Or that $750,000 of Pacific Mail money, Irwin, it is said, paid the edi tor of the Philadelphia Press $25,000, and to the editor of the Washington C/tronwle $15,000; and this is the way chevalier Forney got rich. An oration over the tomb of Gen. i Robert E. Lee is to be delivered by j Jefferson Davis, at Lexington, Va., in October. Wllilaiq* DepotKm In Alnska. From Alaska comes the intelligence of anew species of tyranny and injus-1 tieo on the part ot Federal military I officers. Wherever Grant’s influence extends, there may we expect injustice I and outrageous interference. Major • Joseph A . Campbell, Fourth Artillery. ,is Grant’s Alaska satrap at Sitka. Tlie, law of tlie Territory is very stringent ! against the introduction of liquors, anti empowers tlie military to seize all liquors coming there, and to destroy | them, and to arrest the parties inter- 1 jested. To protect the citizen, how | over, in his civil rights, the law com-1 j mauds the military official to turn 1 over the arrested parties to the civil ' courts nearest Alaska, together with a statement of the charges against; him. This MnjorCnmpbtdl, however, j acts as if lie were sole owner of Alas ka ami all its inhabitants, and keeps arrested parties in a miserable pen in a half-starved condition, making no effort to send them to the contiguous civil courts of Washington Territory. They are forced to do hard work, and the bayonet is held rigidly over them. Not long since ho condemned to the buck-saw an old ex-Russian lieutenant and subjected him to such exposures that the old mart died. A Southern gentleman who ventured to say that this Alaska Butler kept, an abundant supply of whiskey on hand, himself was likewise condemned to hard work on the woodpile, and sub jected to all manner of insult and hardship. Now this wretched tyrant is under the orders of Gen. O. O. How ard, the Christian military hero, who did so much t?) for the freedmen at one time. It is probable, however, that Howard is afraid of Grant and desires to carry out that usurper’s de structive and tyrannical programme. It is useless to say that this Alaska military tyranny should be stopped. It will prevail wherever Grant lias any soldiers and until lie is turned out of the White House. If he plays Nero in equatorial regions, he will Neroize at the North pole. It is the man’s nature to be vindictive and ty rannical.—Courier-Journal.
