Ahp. Agricultural Conventions in
stituted for purposes of improvement
by conferring with each other on
matters belonging to farming as a
business, orare they merely for the

light on this subject.

It is hoped and expected that ut
the next Agricultural Convention
under the auspices of the Htuto Agri
cultural Hocioty, the farmers them
selves will have an opportunity of
having something to say. Hitherto it
seems that luwyers,politicians and ed
itors do the main part of the talking.
Hlght hero wo would ask, lias any
man, merely because ho Is interested
in planting, but is not n delegate,
properly speaking, the right to rise
uud address the Convention ? If so,
what Is the uso of appointing dele
gates ?

Thu Atlanta Herald takos the Sa
vannah New* and this journal to task
for not warmlyendorsing, and begging
our people to lovo and venerate the
centennial humbug, and because we
don't got excited and boil over with
enthusiastic admiration for the anni
versary of this country, calls us "ul
tra Bourbons.” We have no particu
lar objeotlon to the epithet, if it
means a perfect disgust for the fawn
ing aud undignified gush over the
money making concern, and its qual
ities as a panacea for all the ills with
which this section is afflicted. Wo
think it will be a good advertising
medium for all the Southern States,
to show their productions and indus
tries, aud to give visitors an idea of
our climate, soil, &e., and on that ac
count we hope wo will take such an
interest ns to have Georgia rutly and
properly represented.
There are some measures establish
ed during my administration that
nothing can deprive me of the honor.
They are the settled policy of the
Government.
Thus spoko Gov. Smith to the Dal
ton Convention. Evidently some
body must have been trying to share,
or deprive him of the honor of set
tling the polioy of the Government,
From our standpoint, the policy of
tlie Government is not yet settled,
and if it is, the settlement is a bad
job, that cannot reflect much credit
on anyone. We aro still oppressed
by it, and Grant claims the honor.
Wo suppose lie referred to the Gov
ernment of Georgia; and if he has
sueoeeded in settling the policy of
the State, it would be well if lie will
take the offleo for the third term, for
another Legislature might material
ly upset the “settled policy.” We
believe one policy of Ids is opposi
tion to inviting immigration. That
will not do for Georgia to obey.
ltrnih ol Solomon Cohen.
On Tuesday morning in Savannah,
Mr. Soloman Cohen died at tlie ad
vanced age of 73 years.
Mr. Cohen was highly esteemed in
Savannah, and wherever lio was
known. He always occupied the
highest position in social and mer
cantile life. He was posessed of
great wealth, was highly educated,
aud carried great influence. He once
represented that district in Congress.
His life illustrated the basis of our
political creed, that here no man’s
nationality is a bur to his success
socially or otherwise.
The death of Mr. Cohen brings to
light the following Incident that
trauspired in the Charleston Seces
sion Convention:
On Thursday, May 3d, 1800, when
the late Gen. Henry L. Henning in
troduced the resolutions of withdraw
al adopted by the Georgia delegation.
He opposed the bolt of tho anti-
Douglass delegates, and when he
gained the platform to defend him
self ho made a speech to tho remain
ing Convention in favor of re-open
ing the African slave tade! They
wore dumb-founded, and for several
minutes didn’t kuow whether to
whistle or laugh, but Anally agreed
upon the latter, and enjoyed it great
ly-
strike If Out.
.Section 4268 of the Code of Georgia
is In these words: “If from any cause
a Idll of exceptions is not certified by
the Judge (of Superior Court) wlth
; out fault of parly tendering, such
party, or his attorney, shall apply at
the next term of the Supreme Court,
wheneverit may be, and, on petition,
obtain from said Court a mandamus
nisi, directed to said Judge. Such
bill must sot out substantially the
hill of exceptions tendered, and shall
be verified by the attorney as to the
truth of the bill as tendered, and by
tho party, or his attorney, us to tlie
other facts, stated therein. The man
damn* wist should be served by some
Sheriff of this State, and his return
made to tho Clerk ut Supreme Court.
It shall bo returnable to some term
of the Supreme Court, at which the
Court shall consider and determine
the validity of the reason given by
the Judge for his failure or refusal;
but in no cnee shall a traverse as to the
truth of such return he allowed."
Why this latter clause which we
italicise? Why not allow a traverse of
tho Judge’s return? The preceding
part of the section requires the oath
of the attorney us to the truth of his
bill of exceptions tendered, and tlie
attorney, or party, to other facts con
tained, and yet this latter clause per
mits the bare statement of the Judge
to the contrary to outweigh an oath
of this attorney, and gives him uor
ills client any remedy, though that
return bo false. He must lose Ids
case, however important, and incur
the additional expense and trouble to
impeach tho Judge for redress, which
butfow can spend time and money to
do. Ho is left by this law on the
record not only as a liar, but a per
jurer, with nothing but a personal
redress on the Judge. If he resorts
to this, lie bears the odium of attack
ing tho judiciary, which is repulsive
to u high-toned attorney.
The Judge who will, from passion,
prejudice, partisan feeling, orcorrup
tiori, refuse a fair bill of exceptions
lu the first instance, will rarely hesi
tate to make an unfair or false return.
There is no State in this Union in
our knowledge where suoh a law ob
tains. Our sister State Alabama has
a much more liberal statute. When
such a disagreement occurs between
counsel and tho court In that State
the appellate tribunal takes testimo
ny of disinterested parties present at
the trial and settles tho controversy
on principles of justice and reconcili
ation. strike, out this obnoxious
clause then, and allow an attorney or
party to vindicate his honor, or the
whole section is a farce, which in
some instances might end in a trag
edy.
Such a discretion should be reposed
in no judge. He can uso his official
position thereby to oppress the indi
vidual or political party he hates.
I.pt us adhere to the good old com
mon law maxim: Optima lex quae
minimum relimjuit urbilrio indices ;
optbnus jiulex qni minimum silji.
Wo find tills extract in Bacon's
Aphorisms, which is literally true.
“The discretion of a .Judge is the
luw of tyrants; it is always unknown ;
it is different in different men; it is
casual, and depends upon constitu
tion, temjier and passion. In the
best, it is oftentimes caprice; hi the
worst, it is every vice, folly and pas
sion to which human nature is
liable.”
Our strictures on this section of our
Code arc not made to reflect upon any
Judges—not oven Bullock’s appoin
tees—but to protect all, and purify
the fountain of justice in the future.
Indeed, we are in an amiable mood
iu these days, and affirm that even
Bullock (unintentionally, we think,)
made some appointments in the Ju
diciary which did honor to our State
and themselves. It is true, that in
some other instances he struck his
men, who have proved judicial mar
tinets, exhibiting temper, prejudice,
venom and hate from tlie beach
ugainst individuals they personally
hated und political opponents. He
had an object In all his appoint
ments, but misjudged many men who
adorned their office and tlie profes
sion, against his desire or expectation.
The Judge of to-day may bo the
practicing lawyer of to-morrow; and
however much he may have op
pressed, wo want to allow him a fair
chance at the bar by removing this
obnoxious clause.

I'ltiw C'ouuiientN on Col. Baker's Cam>.
From tho London Times, August 3.]
There is every reason to be satisfied
with the conduct and result of the
trial. The two judges who succes
sively refused to interfere with the
ordinary course of procedure have
been amply justified by the event. It
would have been a monstrous injus
tice to tlie young lady, who must
have already suffered much anxiety
in connection with tlie ease, to post
pone the trial for months on tlie pre
tence of securing for Colonel Baker a
more impartial aud efficient jury; and
the fact that the jury actually sum
moned acquitted Him of tlie more
weighty charge, shows that neither
the excitement of tlie county of Sur
rey nor the prejudices of the class
from which jurymen in criminal cases
are taken, have operated unfairly to
the defendant.
* * There is something also to bo
said for men on this matter. The ap
prehensions are not all on the side of
the weaker sex. The present is a
case of flagrant outrage on an inno
cent lady: but there have been
charges which, when investigated,
wore found to bear quite a different
complexion. There are many men of
by no means weak nerves who dread
being shut up in a railway carriage
with a young woman. If it were the
custom for well conducted young la
dies traveling alone to choose the la
dies’ compartment, this inconveu
ieneo would tend to pass away. But
these are only suggestions. This is a
free country,and all persons of either
sex must be protected in the enjoy
ment of their rights. As far as the
law can afford protection, a girl must
be made as safe in a railway carriage
as in her father’s house. In this
sense the present trial will be a salu
tary example.
[From the Lomlou Standard, August 3.)
* * * We cannot say that the
punishment is too severe. Colonel
Ikiker has sinned against his lights,
his superior advantages uud all the
social and moral conditions which
should have held him back from be
having like the coarsest of ruffians.
There Was need of such an example.
We hear occasionally of the perils
which beset male railway travellers
from the solieitationsand threats of
exposure to which they are subjected
by depraved adventuresses who seek
to extort money by the menance that
they will prefer absolutely groundless
charges. We hear but seldom of the
systematic, annoyunces, of a more or
less grave ehuracter, under which,
with all deference to Mr. Justice
Brett, lady passengers are constant
ly suffering at tho hands of male fel
low travellers. Ladies seldom care
to seek redress in a court of justice
under these circumstances. It is on
ly when tho provocation is outra
geous, when the courage of tlie lady
partakes of desperation, und when
the manifestation of that courage is
public and startling in its absolutely
reckless disregard of consequences
that offenders of this stamp are
brought tojustice.
.4 M'lltP OF AVri-HVdIJiH HIM
TORY.
THE FATE OF MORGAN AS TOX.D BY THIIR
IAJW WEED.
From Weed's Letter to the N. Y. Herald.)
I did not personally know William
Morgan, who was for more than two
months writing his book in u house
adjoining my residence, at Hoehester.
Wheu applied to by Mr. Dyer, my
next door neighbor, where Morgan
boarded, to print the book purport
ing to disclose the secrets of Masonry,
1 declined to do so, believing that a
man who had taken an oath to keep
a secret had no right to disclose it.
Although not a Free Mason, I had
entertained favorublo opinions of an
institution to which Washington,
Franklin and Lafayette belonged.
On my refusal to print his book, Mor
gan removed to Batavia, where he
made tlie acquaintance of David
Miller, editor of the Adits'ate, also a
Mason, who became his publisher. I
pass briefly over a series of facts which
were judicially established, embrac
ing the arrest of Morgan, his con
veyance to und confinement in the
coiuity juil at Canandaigua, from
which he was released and conveyed
by night in close carriages through
Boehester, Clarkson and along the
Bridge road to Fort Niagara, in the
magazine of which he was confined.
While thus eonllned a Knight Tem
plar Encampment was installed at
Lewiston. When at supper tlie zeal
and enthusiasm of the Templars huv
ing been aroused by speeches and
wine, Col. Wm. King, of Loekport,
Invited four men (Whitney, Howard,
Chubbuek and Garside) from their
seats at tho banqueting table into an
adjoining apartment, where lie in
formed them that ho had an order
frorn tho Grand -Master (De Witt
Clinton), theexecution of which re
quired their assistance. This purty
was then driven to Niagara, reaching
the Fort a little before 12 o’clock.
Upon entering the magazine Col.
King informed Morgau that his
friends had completed their arrange
ments for his removal to and resi
dence upon a farm in Canada. Mor
gan walked with thorn to the wharf,
where a boat was held in readiness
for them by Elisha Adams, an inva
lid soldier, into which the party
passed and rowed away, Adams re
maining to warn the boat off by sig
nal if on its return any alarm hud
been given. It was nearly two
o’clock iu the morning when the boat
came back, having, us Adams ex
pressed it, lost one man, only live of
the six being on board whoa the boat
returned. When the boat reached a
•point where the Niagara river emp
ties into Like Ontario, a rope being
wound around Morgans’s body, to
either end of which a sinker was at -
tached, he was thrown overboard.
It is due to the memory of Governor
Clinton to say that Colonel King had
no such order aud no authority to
make use of his flame. It is proper,
also, to add that none of these men
survive. John Whitney, of Roches
ter, whom I knew well, related all
the circumstanoesconnected with the
last act in that tragedy to me at Al
bany in 1831, in the presence of Sim
eon B. Jewett, of Clarkson, and Sam
uel Barton, of Lewiston.
■ ♦ >
TniiplllK the Internal Rendons.
Last week Mr. Joseph Haliu, who
lives three or four miles west of Ma
rine City, Mich., was engaged in
sinking an artesian well for the pur
pose of supplying his stock with wa
ter, and used for that purpose a der
rick, consisting of three pieces of
timber fastened together at the top
in the shupe of a tripod. This der
rick was fastened by moans of a heavy
log chain wound around the timbers
at tlie lop, attached to which was an
auger for tho purpose of boring the
well, which was turned by horsepow
er. The first portion of tho well, for
a distance of twenty feet, had been
carefully bricked up, and the boring
continued from there. Tho diameter
of the well is 13 inches, und on Mon
day night the auger had penetrated a
distance of 123 feet. The next morn
ing a gas chamber was penetrated,
and upon tho removal of tho auger
the wooden tubing shot out of the
well immediately followed by a
stream of gas, water, mud aud stones
that rose to a distance of nearly 200
feet iu tlie air, while the ground
shook as it an earthquake hud con
vulsed it. Stones weighing from 10
to 20 pounds were projected in
tho air and fell in all directions,
some of them crashing through
the roof of Mr. Hahns house
aud barn, compelling his fam
ily to seek another habitation. The
heavy log chain binding tho derrick
was cut by the flying missiles into a
dozen pieces, uud tlie farm, upon
which a stone could not have been
fouud previoussto this phenomenon,
was literally covered with large and
small ones. The velocity of this dis
charge continued for eight or ten
hours without intermission, when the
monster was found to have spent his
fnry, and tho stream and noise grad
ually subsided. The crops of Mr.
Hahn were completely destroyed by
the falling debris and the streams of
water, which ran in all directions.
Many people visited the well, and
many are still coming, and Mr. Hahn,
to restore its nearly ns possible his
loss—for he is a poor man-has en
closed tho well within a rail fence,
and charges the moderate sum of five
cents for the satisfaction of individual
curiosity. The water, still bubbling,
may be seen tit a great depth by the
aid of a mirror, which reflects the
sun’s rays into its depths. One re
markable fact is that the brick wall
of the first twenty feet of the well is
entirely uninjured, and remained in
tact during the great convulsion. The
oritico below, however, is somewhat
enlarged.
