It in now definitely known that the
Force bill did not panx the Senate;
not for tlic want of a perfect willing
noss to pass it, but because they had
not the time. Something had to be
left undone, and it W‘‘io better thin
bllT tli## Hie liffercjM Appropriation
bills fir in the latter most of them
hod a little direct interest in flic way
of “engineering money.” With a lit
tle money In sight., their infatuation
for the negro was overcome and at
, such an hour the bill for the negro
must be .sacrificed in preference to the
gold.
Well, the Infamous bill is not a
written law, and does not disgrace
the, statute books; nevertheless, the
spirit of the law is the law in this
land. Grant’s orders are our laws,
and it doe* not require them written,
to suit his hate and venom. Our dis
l>atohes represent Grant, in the Sen
ate during the dying hours of the
Force bill, urging the Kudleal mem
bers to puss it. When told it hud
only been read twiee, and that the
IVmoerats would not waive the tldrd
reading, then his frenzy knew no
bounds. He begged they would call
it up, ami discuss It thoroughly, in
order that the loyal North might un
derstand it, and endorse his poliey
during the recess of Congress. He
meant by this language to be under
stood as intending to carry out such
a programme as the bill contempla
ted, whether he had the passage of
the hill or not.
Grant wants to retain his position,
and no matter who placed him in
power, he is certainly there, and in
tends remaining. The people wiio
put him there, want him to remain;
and ull they demand of him is, the
continued oppression of the South.
If we look to the people that placed
him there, the day of redemption is
indeed far in the future, and the yoke
will remain on our necks until a rev
olution strikes it off.

The investigating committee must
have felt pretty small, when they
read Clows’ letter in the Atlanta
Herald. Clews was the man by
whom they thmyht they could prove
certain bonds laid been paid twice.
Clews says positively and emphatical
hj tk/4 none of the lx Kide hare hern
paid twiee. Does this not leave the
watch dygs of the treasury in a beau
tiful situation presenting such
grave charges against an honest man,
and going so far as to order suit
against his bondsmen, when that
witness on whom they rely, says lie
won't Swear their way. Yet the dam
age to the reputation of the Treasur
in' has been Uoue by the suggestion
of a suspicion, though it is true the
damugo was but small, as no one ex
cept a few of Hullook’s and Kimball’s
friends would believe it.
The idea of a second payment was
suggested by Col. Jones to Governor
Smith, in this way. He found in
Clews’ statement of rush expendi
tures, frequent sums marked "paid
Georgia bonds.” The frequent oc-
UWWINP Of tills note, caused him to

in.” Tim committee should all hast
en to send in their apologies, and the
men who put them up to the investi
gation might as well take a back
seat, as there is not likely to occur
any vaeiiney in fhe Treasury office.
We suppose the suit ordered by the
Legislature "ill be yotoud by the
Governor, though it would lie better
for an investigation, that Jack Jones

Thr Froaix-rlly l Our Illy.
If had become commonplace among
our neighbors to refer to Columbus
as a “dead town,” but now It seems
the tide of such expressions has turn
ed, and wo are looked upon as a
thrifty and growing community. Call
ing our merchants “old fogies,” while
never applicable, lias been left off,
and to-day Columbus lias more enter
prise in her borders than any eitv of
fhwwtmeAH> fn the South. Despite
the unjust discrimination made
our town by reason of the
■iiujlml Itailroad’a eottou freight, Co
lumbus is visited by people yf
western Florida and the counties nd-
TidSntto the river. The trade of the
city is steadily increasing, and new
industries are constantly adding to
the importance of Columbus as a
manufacturing city.
The prosperity of a eitv is measured
to a great extent by the value of her
real estate. Since the panic real es
tate has steadily decreased, and in
s6nie small places town property has
depreciated two-thirds in value. At
lanta claims to lx- the rising city of
the South, and now that Kimball has
returned anew impetus is promised
that place. With all of its boasted
importance, and its railroads, Oolum
bus is not far behind her. The public,
sale of real estate in Atlanta, a few
days ago, realized the sum of thirty
three dollars per foot front, und for
property oq the principal streets. On
last Tuesday, in Columbus, thirty
feet front was sold for uiue thousand
dollars, which makes the price real
ized J>qr fprnt thirty dollars. This
price Is nearly equal to that realized
in Attoata, and shows that the de
crease in hho twice of real estate in
Columbus is not great, and that the
city is prosperous to lie able to main
tain saplijwioes, when around us city
property has deteriorated in value to
an alarming extent.

The following sound advice to tlie
colored iieoplc of that State and the
South is given by the Richmond
Slate loti mat, the lending Kepubll
cati paper in Virginia, in its com
ments on the Civil Rights bill. It
will be well for the colored man to
heed it, and w<w believe ull the re
spectable i>ortion of the race will do
so. No white man who lias any of
the Instincts of the gentleman over
cares to thrust himself where he is
not wanted. Why should not ne
groes observe that code and not <>b
trudo whoro their company will be
offensive to the whole of their follow
citizens and friends ? Do colored
house servants or waiting maids
claim to be souted at the first tabic?
Why then obtrude into white com
pany at hotels and theatres, when
they are furnished just aH good ac
commodations In separate seats?
The Journal says:
“When we consider how difficult it will
prove to enforce this hill, and how liable It
may prove to embroil the Iwo races in
trouble, we fear its effect will lie far from
promoting the interests of the class of
citizens whom it is intended to serve. W e
trust, however, that the good sense of the
colored people of Richmond and Virginia
will keep them from intruding themselves
in places that cannot be agreeable to them
selves, or that may lie distasteful to their
white fellow-citizens. In a word, let the
colored people show by their conduct that
there wan no need ot this class legislation;
that they have no desire to thrust them
selves into places where their presence
may he obnoxious, and thus retain the re
speet and good will of their whips neigh
bors. Hut we may, however congratulate
the country thul. this one fruitful souree
of rancor and disunion, of bitter feeling
and animosity, luih come Pi an end,
although to our judgment it would have
been better and more In keeping with the
true inpircsts of all classes Pi have per
mitP'il the questions thus sought P> be
reached by statutory law Pi settle them
selves as they eventually will, in spiPi of
all law. To our mind, also, the convictions
that impelled the friends of the bill in
Congress to withdraw the clause referring
to free schools were sufficient p> have
killed the entire bill. If they were potent
ill that particular they were equally so in
every particular.”

The Confederate invasion ot Lake
Fjiix in September, tur.i, eaine before
tlie House Committee on War Claims
recently, the owners of a couple of
yawls that, were seized claiming dam
ages from the Government. It will
be recollected that some Southern
refugees in Canada planned and or
ganized a warlike exisHlition for the
forcible seizure of private steamers
on Igike Erie and using them for the
capture of the iron steamer Michi
gan, belonging to the U. H. Navy,
then stationed on lake Erie, near
Johnson’s Island, where about ,(*)()!
prisoners wore confined, intending by
tlie possession of said steamer to ob
tain control of the lakes. The com- i
mittee reported adversely on the j
claims, holding the Government not
liable for the losses suffered.

to restrict its liability in ease of death
brought on by insanity of the holder
of its policies; but. which contains a
clause declaring the company not,
liable in such eases. This decision is ,
in opposition to many previous decis
ions on the subject, as it has general
ly been held in law ttiat Insanity is
essentially a disease, and that against
it Insurance companies could not bo
protected.

The following summary of the

$300,000 in the Treasury. From July,
1808, to October, 187-1," the Treasury
received over $0,500,000, a floating

Liohtnino Rons. It is maintained
that whenever there is a large metal
ie surface in the roof of a building, or
the building itself is of a metaiie con
struction, lightning rods are unnee
oessary, the most powerful discharge
of eleetricily being immediately dif
fused over tue entire metaiie surface
and thereby rendered harmless. On
this theory, it is said, the tall light
house at Cape Canaveral, off the coast
of Florida, has no lightning rod. It
is a tower built of plate iron, and in
stead of a lightning rod, there is a
small platinum point attached to the
peak or apex of the metal roof, which
receives the discharge, after which it
is so diffused by the metaiie surface
as to become harmless in its descent
to the earth.
If this theory be correct, and it is
certainly reasonable, there would
seem to have been a good deal of un
necessary expenditure to iuqiair the
safety of. rather,than to protect build
ings,"both public and private, which
were already provided with safe
guards against lightning.— H'aehimj
