LARGEST DAILY CIRCULATION
In City and Huhnrta.
Tlie Two Infamies.
The Pri-eldont han approved the
Civil Rights bill, and, in doing so, he
did not, in the least, surprise the
Southern l>oople. The Force bill bus
passed, and as soon as it is transmit
ted to him, he will greedily append
ids signature to the infamous law,
without reading it, but hoping it
stronger and more tyrannical than it
is, If such a thing be possible.
We have heard a great deal lately
übout how the soldiers of the North
felt towards us, and yet Grant was a
soldier, and is the acknowledged
leader of the Northorn soldiery. In
fact, his strong support Is witli the
ex-Federal soldiers. What we havo
received at his hands, wo may expect
from the balance, for they all hate
and despise us, and in some way or
other arc working out our ruin. The
great trouble with our people hereto
fore, has been an over-cautiousness
in the expression of our honest sen
timents about these people.
By this sort of conduct we meant
IK-aee, but they havo taken advan
tage of It, and wilfully misconstrued
our motive. We have been denounc
ed as murderers and desperadoes,
und for the sake of harmony our peo
ple havo not resented it, and our
tacit submission to these every-day
insults has only redounded to our
further persecution. The people we
deal with are cowards, who take ad
vantage of every receding step,
to push their aggressions. It
Is time we are resenting them,
and in a way that will hurt
them most—their pockets. Sustain
homo Industries, and keep your
money among your people. When
they once leel the offoot of their leg
islation in their pockets, they will
reflect tho injustice they have done
us. Beware of men coming among
us in the garb of friendship, and let
them see thut their motives and the
effect of thoir conduct is fully under
stood, and tt will not be long before
the South will liave her full rights,
for self-respect and a condemnation
of toadyism will show tho fanatical
Nortli that we mean to preserve out
own ideas of civilization and right,
despite their opinions. We areas in
telligent, reflned, and virtuous to a
far greater extent, and in all ages
these qualities have Conquered over
ignoranco, vice und superstition.

Our FarinluK Interests.
March is tho month in which the
farmers base their calculations for
tho year. Before this time tho broad
acres of our farmers should have
been well broken up, ready for the
grain. Wo are glad to hear from all
sections of the country that the far
mers have, at last, learned in the
school of experience that they must
make tlicir farms self-sustaining, and
that many have adopted the Harda
way intensive system of cultivation.
This great tide has turned within one
year, and wo feel sutistled our people
mean to ride upon the “tide, which
taken at the flood, leads on to for
tune.”
Now Is tho time to pitch your corn
crop, und we beseech our farmers to
profit by iist experience, and plant
enough corn to do them. Why will
you doubt that this is tho true phil
osophy of farming, when your own
sad exisnience with Hens and debts,
has demonstrated tho utter impos
sibility of independence, unless you
own your own corn cribs ? Let there
be no hesitation in the matter, and
let no man wait upon his neighbor,
but before ho plants his cotton, de
termine to raise his own supplies.
After these, then look to the accu
mulation of money in the planting of
cotton, but don’t sow a seed of cot
ton until enough land is planted in
corn, peas, to do you for the
coming year.

Bights and Force bills.
While alluding to him, we would
return our thanks for a set of com

Interesting and useful for informa
tion, and are really obliged for tliis
valuable acquisition to our library.
Tue best sign of the times is that
the Harper’s Weekly, one of the most
prominent Republican pajvers in the
country, has come out bitterly in op
position to the Badlcal “caucus force
bill, and declares that it will ruin the
BupubUcan party, as well as endan
ger tho liberties of the country!” Its
leading editorial is a manly and pow
erful one, especially on tho light of
habeas corpus, and wo are sorry tt
was not heeded by the mod-caps in
Congress. _
The present United States Senate
is very anxious to admit, us States,
the Territories of Colorado and Now
Mexico, because, they think, if ad
mitted, they will return four more
Republican Senators, and thus give
the new Senate a greater Radical
majority than it will have as the
States now stand. If they succeed in
this trick, perhaps they may be mis
taken in their calculations, for in the
present aspect of i>arties, the Demo
crats are as likely to carry those Ter
ritories as the Radicals.

While America is distracted over
the Civil Rights and Force bills, it
may be interesting to our readers to
know that France is organizing a
government on the plan that our Re
public was built by our forefathers.
After much wrangling the Nntlonul
Assembly of Franco has at last suc
ceeded in reaching a definite conclu
sion as to the kind of government
which is to prevail in that country,
at least for some years to come. This
unexpected result is mainly due to
the general alarm created by the in
trigues and machinations of the
Bonapartist faction. Flushed by
their success in several recent elec-1
tions, tho lca'lors of tiiat party be
came so outspoken and over-confi
dent that a large number of Deputies
belonging to the Right Center or
Orleanist wing of the Assembly, and
who had heretofore persistently re
fused to act with tlie Conservative
Republicans, became convinced that
unless they co-operated with Thiers,
Dufuure, Casimir Perler and their
followers of the Left Center, the
present Assembly would be compelled
to make way for u freshly elected
body in which tho extreme Republi
cans and the Imperialists would con
tend for supremeey. Under the
adroit leadership of Dufaure, Thiers’
right-hand man, all the various sec
tions of the Republican party in the
Assembly were kept together, Oum
betta’s influence over the moro ex
treme members of his own party be
ing successfully exerted to induco
them to accept tho very conservative
form of Republican organization
which tuts just been adopted through
the accession of a portion of the
Right Center, their objections being
mainly removed by the cluuso pro
viding for a revision of the constitu
tion ut stated periods by tho two
branches of the new Legislature.
The Senate, which is the main fea
ture of the proposed organization, is
to consist of three hundred members,
seventy-five of whom are to be elected
by the Assembly, (whoso members
are themselves elected by universal
suffrage,) and the remaining two
hundred and twenty-five Senators to
be appointed by members of the gen
eral and municipal councils of each
department a plan somewhat analo
gous to the American system of elect
ing Senators by the State Legisla
tures. At the expiration of MacMa
hon’s present terra in 1880, the As
sembly and the Senate will jointly
elect a President for another period
of seven years, the incumbent being
indefinitely re-eligible to the sumo
office.
Although the new constitution still
has to run the gauntlet of a final vote,
there appears to be no doubt that it
will be adopted by a large majority.
There is, then, every prospect that
the experiment of a conservative re
public in that country will be made
under tho most favorable auspices,
and will rally to its support the best
citizens and the wisest statesmen of
France; and should President Mae-
Mahon throw the weight of bis influ
ence on the same side, there is every
reason to hope that it will provo com
pletely successful, and tiiat all patri
otic Frenchmen will agree with the
veteran historian and statesman
Thiers, in accepting a republic as
“the government which divides them
least..’’

Never did the action of a set of men
claiming to be sensible, so utterly
disgust tlie public as the report of tlie
committee to investigate tho Treas
ury Department. They started off
like school boys, by asking tlie Treas
urer to resign, and implying grave
charges against him. He refused,
and they reinvestigated only to re
port it not so bad as first, reported,
and llnally agreed that there was only
five hundred dollars short; and as an
offset to that tho Treasurer lmd a
voucher they were not willing to al
low. Some swore they would not go
homo until he was turned out of
office, but they finally concluded to
relinquish seven dollars per diem and
leave, us Jack Jones was about to ex
pose their Imbecility and weakucss.
They were satisfied in getting a vote
of censure In the manner of his book
keeping. Well, was this not a huge
thing, that there should bo such
frauds and yet were satisfied in a vote
of censure? That comraitteo was an
enlightened one anyway, as we hear
not one of them were able to distin
guish a day-book from a blotter.
Competent men they to sit in judg
ment upon a man’s integrity who
knew how to be honest, before they
learned the rudiments. Everybody
exclaims, What a fizzle; and Jack
Jones can only stand higher in the
estimation of Georgians, if he will
show up the demagogueism of this
committee, and tho reasons that
prompted such a slanderous report.
How many good Christians, who
dress finely and fare sumptuously
every day, ever stop the clatter of
their knives and forks for a moment
to consider how many hundreds, not
far distant, have not a good morsel
to put in their mouths, or in the
crying mouths of their little chil
dren ? A good text for Sunday ser
mons and daily reflection.
The address of the Democratic Con
gressmen to their constituents in the
South receives warm commendation
from the press of that section. The
Mobile RerjUter says of it: “The truth
is that the Country is trying to be at
peace and to bury the asperities of a
deplorable war nearly a decade after
its close. But the Radical party sees
its own cud in the peace that all the
interests of the land and the hearts
of the i>eople yearn for, and the ques
tion before the country is, shall it
have peace and prosperity restored,
or shall the Radical luuty continue
to live and govern the country like so
many stormy petrels, who rejoice and
prosper only when the elements of
discord are let loose upon society?
The address is timely, and will not be
lost upon the people to whom it is
sent.”

r.KSriKUED IN ATLANTA, OA., FEB. 18, 1875.
HON. HIRAM WARNER, CHIEF JUSTICE;
HONS, H. K. M’KAY AND It. P. TBTPPE,
judges!
Reported by Henry Jackson, St
preme Court Iteportcr,
Wilcox, Gibbs & Cos., vs. Isaac It
Hall, factor, Lien from Oglethorpe.
Warner, C. J.
This was a proceeding instituted by
the pluintiffs against the defendant,
to foreclose a merchant’s lien for gu
ano sold to him. The defendant filed
his counter affidavit, alleging that the
guano purchased of the plaintiffs was
worthless os a fertilizer and not rea
sonably suited to the use intended.
Gn trial of the issue between the par
ties the jury, under the ciiurge of the
court, found a verdict in favor of the
defendant. The plaintiffs made a
motion fora new trial on the grounds
contained therein, which was over
ruled by the court, and tho plaintiffs
excepted. The main grounds of er
ror insisted on here was rite refusal
of the court to charge the jury as re
quested, and to the charge as given.
The court was requested to charge
the jury: . ,
If you believe from t he evidence be-
fore you that tiie fertilizer bought by
defendant contained the chemical in
gredients which ought, with proper
use, under ordinary circumstances,
to promote. Vegetation, and is such a
fertilizer, then the plaintiff is entitled
to recover in ttiis case.” “The law of
implied warranty which requires all
dealers in fertilizers to warrant them
reasonably suited to the use intend
ed, does not require the seller to
guarantee results, or an actual in
crease of production. If the evidence
shows that the fertilizer sold wusauf
such a nature and contained such
elements as will reasonably pro
duce increased production, and is
such a fertilizer, the plaintiff com
plied with the requirements of the
luw, whether in point of fact the crop
of the defendant was increased by the
use of the fertilizer or not.’’ There is
a great deal of evidence in the record
in relation to tho practical effect of
the use of the guano on tho defend
ant’s crop; and although the evidence
is conflicting, still wo think there is
u preponderance of evidence in favor
of the defendant, as to worthlessness
of tho particular lot of guano as a
fertilizer sold by the plaintiff to the
defendant, whatever may have been
the chemical ingredients of the plain
tiff’s fertilizer as generally prepared
by them. Practical demonstration of
tho value of a fertilizer, when prop
erly used, is a much safer and better
tost than mere theories. The court
charged the jury as fallows:
If there is no express covenant of
warranty tho purchaser must exercise
caution in detecting defects; the sell
er, however, in all cases, unless ex
pressly or from the nature of the
transaction expected, warrants:
1. That ho has a valid title and
right to soil.
2. That the article sold is merchant
able and reasonably suited to the use
intended.
:t. That lie knows of no latent de
fects undisclosed.
“A seller of fertilizers warrants that
tlie article is merchantable and tea-;
sonably suited to the use intended.
He warrants that it is a manure, that
it, is reasonably suited for giving ad
ditional capacity to laud to produce
a crop. The planter must determine
if the fertilizer is suited to his land.
Tho seller does not warrant against
the seasons, so that if his fertilizer
fails on account of tlie seasons, the
purchaser is liable.
The warranty that, it is reasonably
suited to the use intended, that it will
increase the productiveness of the
land, is not broken if bad cultivation
or the seasons cause the loss of the
crop. The purchaser is bound to use
reasonable care and caution in (sit
ting ou t his fertilizer. To entitle the ,
defendant to n verdict he must show
clearly that his bad crops resulted
from the worthlessness of the guano.
The opinion of a chemist, made
after an analysis of the guano, is evi
dence for you to consider, but is not
conclusive evidence of the suitable
ness of the guano for tho purpose in
tended. You may look to the con
stituents of this guano, as shown by
I)r. Means and others, to determine
the value of this manure. You may
look also to the testimony of wit
nesses before going to show (experi
ment, witli the same kind of guano
and practical results. Theories may
not accord with experience. If the
testimony id witnesses, founded on
experiment and trial, preponderates
in favor of the defendant, and satis
fies you that tlie article sold was not
reasonably suited for tlie uses intend
ed, you might to find for the defend
ant'; but if the testimony, mixed with
theory and experiments with this gu
ano. preponderates in favor of the
plaintiffs, you ought to find for them.
The court also charged the jury, at
the request of the plaintiff's counsel,
as follows: “if you believe, from the
testimony, that the fertilizer bought
by the defendant from the plaintiff,
was reasonably suited to the use in
tended, pluintiffs are entitled to a
verdict at your hands, although it
may be true that tiie crop of defen
dant was not benefitted by the use of
said fertilizer. In determine whether
said fertilizer was really suited to the
use intended you may look to all the
testimony.
“The law. where there is no ex
press contract, does not require the
plaintiff to guarantee that Ins fertili
zer is of tin' highest grade. It must
be reasonably suited to the use in
tended, that is, reasonable increase
in the production of crops,and if you
believe, under instructions already
given you, that this fertilizer was
such a fertilizer as would produce
such increased production, then the
court charges von that you may con
sider it reasonably suited to the use
intended.
“Tlie admissions of an agent only
bind tiie prinei|wU when mode in the
scope of his business as agent, und if
either (>arty relies on such admis
sions he must show they were made
In the scope of his business.
In view of the evidence contained
in the record, and the previous rul
ings of tliis court, in similar eases,
we find no error in the charge of the
court to the jury, or in refusing to
charge as requested. There was no
error in overruling the motion for
anew trial.
Let tlie judgment of tho court be
low be affirmed.

The Flood in North Georgia. -The
Atlanta Herald lias a special from
North Georgia, which states that the
flood in that region was the greatest
ever known. At Dalton several per
sons were killed and injured. One
house was blown down, set on fire,
anda child burned to death in it.
Another large frame dwelling was
blown to pieces, the greater portion
of it carried several hundred yards
distance. The house was completely
raised from the ground, leaving only
the floor, and the family, consisting
of eight persons, who miraculously
escaped without injury. Three other
houses were badly damaged, one of

I sand dollars. The railroad track at
I Tilton is under water for several
miles.
Advices from Tennessee state that
almost the entire business portion of
1 Chattanooga is under water, and that
j boats are being used to aid the escape
; of the citizens and to save goods, Ac.
The flood in that, city is several feet
