Ww uiutm-Htnii'l 14 to be a sound rule lnluwthatovorym.m is entitled to ball In ull cases, provided the proper authority comes to the conclusion that a bond will secure the prisoner’s presence to stand a final trial. It is eminently proper that such should he the law, yet, It is unusual to place u man on bond charged with murder, when all the evidence makes his guilt certain. The reason why, Is found in the fact that when his life or liberty is tu iininoat danger, it Is only natural that a man should avoid It by escape. With this idea, we llnduo.objectlon in the hailing of the parties charged with murdering Col. O. H. Holland, provided the Court trying the case is satisfied that the tmml Witt briny them to trml. Wo express no opinion on the matter, as that Court is alone respon sible for it# conduct. Hut while on tills subject, would it be inappropri- j ate to suggest, that “consistency, thou art a jewel.” We, In common with tlio commu nity, recollect full well that not long ' since a young roan, a stranger almost to the community, was charged a# an (koemory to a murder. Witnesses were Introduced, and they could only swear he was in company with Ids brother, who shot an officer. The | proof declared he did not lire a shot, and wtiW on his way home. What be tgyto of iiis application for bail? The record "will show that bail was re fused, notwithstanding ho could give bail for ten thousand dollars. Now bail was refused, and the bail was in j the discretion of the Court. 8o in i this case of yesterday, the difference | was that every witness swore to the fact that the parties on trial shot lirsl and hint, and all agree that it was a premeditated murder. This case, In t hat discretion, was bailed. Wo have no objection, as tlrst sta ted, to the decision, but wo cannot but recall the expression, “consisten cy, thou art a jewel.” Why Is it thus? Echo answers, “why?” Entoinolowy. Paris, March SO.-—A decree has been issued tor prohibiting the importation of American potatoes, er sacks or barrels in which they hft<l been parked. This is ilone to provide against the introduction of the (ktfbrado btHdle. When Proctor Knott, of Kentucky, or ,S. 8. Cox, of New York we forget wlilch of the two it was—essayed to ridicule the Agricultural Bureau out Of existence, a few years ago, by a humorous criticism on the report of the entomologist, concerning a hoy, which was defined to he a humbug by the sapient wit, he overreached himself. The average lawyer can’t rise above the piano of knowledge embraced in law books, and seems to despise the other vast fields of -infor mation. Pew fields of scientific in vestigation have a more practical bt'ariug upon the welfare of people t bun the science of entomology. Ihe scientific societies of Paris are un eciuallod In the world, and their prac tical benefit to the country is illus trated by the above telegram. The efforts of Mr. Riley, the State Entomologist of the State of Missouri, led to the general application of Paris green to potatoes and other crops in order to destroy the Colorado beetle, or potato bug. This saved an im mense sum to the farmers of Missouri. When our Georgia legislators will give a little of the valuable time wasted on discussing bills of “cross road” or exclusively local importance to the consideration of such subjects as entomology, perhaps wo will have a State Entomologist. If a compe tent mail was appointed, we believe a way might bo devised to destroy, or at least lessen the ravages of, the A cotton caterpillar, and thus save mil- I lion* to the planters annually. And " this would be but one result of ids researches. The Frankfort . lonnnil, a German paper published at Frankfort-on-t lie- Maine, has the following surprising bit of American news: “X’residout Grant, as is generally known, has a great predilection ba the military, and, what is less great, but more human, a predilection like wise for a good life-long salary, in connection with these propensities, a rumor is in- circulation which has found belief, to the effect that Grant is going to resign the Presidency, un der the condition that Vice President Wilson, who will then be President, shall nominate him for field-marshal, an office to be expressly created by Congress with this in view. The po sition of field-marshal is to be a life office, with a large salary appertain ing thereto. Field Marshal Grant, we salute you.” The Ignorance of the people of Eu rope concern lug American affairs is somotimes amusing. An intelligent gentleman once asked the writer. whUfl Ip Edinburgh, if the President did not appoint the Vice President, And a Professor Maeearesi in the College of Koine, a master of seven languages, expressed surprise that Cuba was not one of the States of the United States. The above “bit of American news” can not be consid ered surprising when such facts as those instanced above are true. Wf. learn that Colonel Wharton has been appointed Adjutant Gener al, vice General Street, and not Super intendent of police, as reported. We have uo doubt but what General Wharton will give general satisfaction in his new position, and fulfil the duties incumbent upon him with zeal.—A". O. Bulletin. The many soldiers who fought un der General Wharton will be glad to know where he is and what our gal lant commander is doing. t X> Plan at Uovernmrnt. A joint resolution has been intro- ; dueed into the Illinois Legislature by one of tho members- -Mr. Herroa— in structing the Senator* and Kepresen- j tatlvesof that State in Congress to propose as an amendment to the < on (dilution that “the Executive power shall be vested in a Cabinet, the chief I of which shall be styled an Exeeu-j tive, und sliall bo chosen by the House j of Representatives from among the members thereof, upon tho nomina tion of the Speaker or some other per- 1 son designated by law. He shall re-; tiro from office and give place to his I successor upon a vote of non-con 11-, ! donee by both Houses of Congress, ! provided that upon such vote of non i oonfideuey he shall have power, in his discretion, to declare a dissolu lion of tho House. Thereupon a now election for Representatives will take place, but the Executive shall not dissolve the House upon a declare- . tion of non-concurrence affirmed Gy the country In the return of anew; House. The House shall consist of members chosen by the people of the several States, to servo for the term of three years unless tin* term beeud od before tho expiration of three youra by u. dissolution of tin* House by the Executive.” Tills resolution was, after debate, referred to the Com mittee of the Whole by a large ma ■* A late writer in the North Ameri can He.rieui suggested something of the character of the proposed amend ment, and It was followed by a series of articles in a Chicago paper. The idea is tho substitution of a system analagous to that which obtains in , England, minus the hereditary moil-; aroli. The President, or “the Exeeu tive,” as he if. called here, is a mem her of the House of Representatives, ! chosen by tho majority, and us soon las lie ceases to represent the majori- j I ty he has the privilege of appealing ■ |to the country by dissolving the | I House, and, if the people do not sus- I tain him by electing anew House in ! accordance with his views, he is to i give way, and a successor in harmony with tlie new body is to be chosen. Wo are not at all sure that the idea is Utopian, but we do not believe that such is the present tendency of af fairs. That tendency is rather to the concentration of power in the hands jof the President. The English gov ernment is the most durable in exist ence, and lias perfected the highest j civilization known to modern times, j While thinking of the different plans of government, that of John C. Cal j iiouu recurs to us. Mr. Calhoun’s > j idea if we remember correctly - was ! to have tho wealth of the country rep resented in the Senate, and let popu lar suffrage elect the members of the lower House of Delegates. A proper ty limitation was thus imposed on the members of the Senate. In Italy, at present and, if we are not mis taken, in France, during the reign of the Emperor Napoleon 111., the Sen ators arc appointed by the Monarch for life, and the Deputies are elected by the people. We think Mr. Cal houn's idea was, perhaps, the fairest mode, since, under our present sys tem, property is not fairly represent ed. Would it not bo well for the Leg islatures of the Southern States to impose both a property and educa tional limitation to the right of suf frage? The present unjust tax im posed upon the whites to educate the blacks would not then obtain. The inducement for the accumulation of property and the acquirement, of tho rudiments of education would be vastly increased. Suffrage is tho most dangerous implement to put into the hands < >f the ignorant masses, and the only way to enable them to realize its privileges and responsibil ities is to give them education. The present mode of educating them is unjust to the whites. Harrows. Now that corn planting is at hand, it is proper to suggest that this im plement is too much neglected in the Southern States. To the truly economical farmer it is indispensable. For very stiff clay lands, which have been in jured by plowing when too wet or by tin) hoofs of cattle which a mistaken policy allows to tread our best bottom lands in winter until they are render ed cloddy and hard nothing so quickly pulverizes these clods as a roller made of rails. Fasten four rails together and stand on them, then drive a pair of mules pulling this rail-harrow and you will pulverize the stoutest clod. Then comes the true use of the liar row as n rulticatnr. The most impor tant thing in corn culture is to pre pare your land before planting al most as thoroughly as you would a turnip field. After corn is up you | can cultivate it twice with the Thom as smoothing burrow. The writer, who has lived on his plantation for years since the war, and lias superiu ! tended his own business, made fifty j bushels corn per acre last year witli | out tlie use of the hoe. He did all i the harrowing himself, driving two I horses attached to the Thomas j smoothing harrow across the field i and over the young corn, which at the last, plowing was a foot high. Hoes are rarely used in tlie rich West ern States, where they make from | sixty to one hundred bushels corn j per acre. The Thomas harrow takes (seven foot at a time, and kills the . young grass effectually. The teeth are very small, are of steel, and set j backward. Wo have used several va rieties, and prefer the “Thomas” to the Nislnvitz or any oilier. It is not suitable to heavy, cloddy land. Like the mowing machine it requires thorough plowing before it will do its best. In North Georgia we put in our clover and grass crops with it, and often cover small grain with it also. It is a most valuable adjunct to the farmer who wishes to follow the intensive system of cultivating a great many acres with a very few hands. Book Xotict. | Southern Cook Book for Salk. Wo : have a book by Mrs. N. T. Martin, of j Kentucky, entitled "House Keejiing |in the Blue Grass." This is anew and I practical cook book, containing over one thousand receipts. Many of them i are now, and have been tried and | found to be valuable. They have been used by Southern housekeepers I and found correct. The book is pub ! fished and sold for a good cause, and wo hope it will be subscribed to by all who keep liouso. Mr. George W. Briggs is agent for tho work in Co lumbus, and those from a distance desiring a good cook book, can get one by addressing him at this place, COM MIU'S NOT TO BLAME.

SOME POLICEMEN WE CAN'T SPARE KiIX INO POLICEMEN FOR SALE CHEAP. Nearly every paper in the State is! commenting on tho tragedy recently enacted in this city. We have clip ped out a few of tiie opinions which have been expressed. Those we give illustrate the nature of all tlie other. . Tlie people seem to be taking a deep interest in this matter, and forming i their opinions to suit themselves: Tho Macon Teleyruph and Messenger j says: “It is in evidence that Cash, after shooting Holland, exclaimed, ‘Oh! dam you, I’ve got you!’ .Vice police-: nuiu that." The Savannah Xros says: “The Columbus policemen - hoot a man down for shutting hiseyes when takes a chew of tobacco. They arc bound to have order in that town.” Tho Atlanta Acer# express'-, its con victions thusly: "Col. O. S. Holland, a high-toned and honorable gentleman, and lute Colonel in tho Confederate army, w.i waylaid, brutally, and almost install -' taneously killed by two desperadoes; on tlm Columbus police, on Monday! last. Tlie Savannah .Vries again : “Columbus is getting to be entirely too quiet. The police have killed no one during the past twelve hours.” The Mi jiiwether county I'lnd'untor blows a slight blast in the following stylo: “O. H. Holland was cruelly murdered in Columbus on Monday. Major A. It. Calhoun is said tobnattlm bottom of 1 he murder.” Here conics Harris of the Netc* again: “Unto tlie hour of s’, 'in,’ to pres tho Cidumbus jxiliee had not .b-i. cti...| their next victim." The A’etfs s|>caks once more: “Columbus is a nice quiet town for invalids.” The Dadevillo Headlight says: “Co-! lumbus Georffia if sin’ contnucs will soon Kct. her name up for the ty rentes t city for murder in the Southern ; States.” The Russoll (Ala.) Uean-der speaks out in half a column; the following arc extracts from the article: “Wo| will not attempt to trace the original of tills lamentable allair. But we reflect, the general expression when! we say that when deceased enoonter ed the Cashes lie had no intention or anticipation of a mortal difficulty. The authors of his death are In lb ■ hands of the law, which will doubt less be vindicated, and till connected directly or indirectly with the bloody : deed be brought to a stern account. A nobler heart never heat iu manly breast than In that of Col. Orlando S. Holland. Hosts of friends where lie 1 was known condole with his family in his sudden death. Peace to his j memory.” The LaGruugc Jlepnrter and a host i of other journals speak in the same! determined tones. Indeed the press of Georgia and Alabama seems to be unanimous on the subject. I Since we have clipped these expres sions of general opinion, we have learned that Cash and McEuvhron i are to tie re-instated on the police force. It. is suggested by many of our ! citizens that a meeting of the people be called aud a vigilauoe committee j InT appointed whose special duty it shall be to protect citizens from po ■ linemen. • ♦ • ltai(ifal # Itnle i:\rui|ititled. : Real estate, says the New Orleans ; llnlletin, lias declined fifty per emit, it will not bring at auction one-half i the amount for which it is assessed Iby the city, or by the State. Pro pert \ ■ worth *IOO,OOO is taxed for *200,000 111 per cent, by the city (under State ! compulsion/ and 2 per cent, by the State, or 11 per cent, by both, or what | is equivalent to 9 per cent, on tlie i actual value. Now. when we consider the fact 'that the industries of the United j States generally do not make more ! than from three to four per cent, net i per annum, the assessment and tax levied in the city of New Orleans | amounts to practical confiscation, if | continued. In re Miner vs. Hoppersett, error to Supreme Court of Missouri, an important decision has been ren dered. The Court says: "Tho Consti tution of the United States does not | confer the right of suffrage upon any ; one.” The right of suffrage is within | the control of tlie several States. Judge Hughes, of tlio United States Circuit Court, District of Virginia, decided recently that "The right to I vote, even of citizens of the United States, is left, even by the Fourteenth 1 amendment itself, to bo regulated and defined by the States, which had : always held that power." It is de oided that a State has the right of regulating tlie right ot suffrage in both State and National elections. Trade Prosneets lor ls 7 r,. i The indications for a prosjierous ! trade during the presenriseason use much more promising than tlio most : sanguine anticipated. The long and severe winter, the failure of the corn crop in many localities last year, the , geneyul depression in all manufactu ring industries,are causes which it was ! supposed would have a very consid- I erablo influence in determining the amount of business to be transacted by our merchants. Doubtless trade will be more or less affected from : such causes, but notwithstanding this j business opens well. The patrons of the St. Louis market are paying pre vious indebtedness with more than | ordinary alacrity. While there is a degree of caution manifested by buv- I ere and considerable strictness ob served ill giving credits by the sellers. ; still the aggregate amount of the bu siness transactions in St. Louis du ring the present year, it is believed by well-informed persons, will great ly exceed last year’s business. More over, an examination of the situation | will convince any one the least in-; I formed concerning commercial af- j fairs that the merchants occupy a i tinner and far safer position than | I they have held since the panic, per- j I hups since tlit year 1801. Prices have j j become fixed at so low a rate that; loss on stock is almost an impossible • contingency,.and failures under such . ■ circumstances are among the most i j improbable eventualities. The con sequence is there is an exceedingly | healthy sentiment, progressive and safe, pervading the mercantile com- j j munity. There is little apprehension 1 | to be felt of a sudden and unhealthy ; | speculative feeling taking possession ! lof tho people. The business trails- j ! acted this year will bo on a conserve- j j tive, cautious basis.
