The Atlanta Herald contains n re
port of an interview with ex-Senntor
Miller which merits a more extended
notice than can bo Riven in a short,
editorial. Df. Miller has long been
regarded as one of the ablest men in
Georgia, but we have never read any
opinions upon the vexed currency
question that seem at once so illog
ical and mistaken as the opinions set
forth by the Herald's reporter us em
anating from that distinguished gen
tleman. Had the ex-Scnutor began
Ids remarks with the very last sen
tence, us Campbell commenced his
“Pleasures of Hope" with the last
verse written, ho would, if he had
consistently adberod to it, have ex
pressed himself differently. That
hist sentence is this; “Tho true doe
trine, the honest, doctrine, tho doe
trine that, gives Justice to ail men, is
the only doctrine that will win in
politic* or In life.” We may as well
make, “ashort cut” iu criticising so
able a man as Dr. Miller, and assert
that no |K>iitical act was ever more
unjust to the mass of tho Southern
people than the act requiring re
sumption of specie payments in 1879,
and that the enforcement of that act
means general bankruptcy so far as
the farmers of the South uro con
cerned. Were Dr. Miller a toiling
producer burdened with debt, ho
would appreciate tho gross injustice
of increasing the debts of a vast ma
jority of the Southern people fifteen
per cent, by a stroke of the pep, or
the stroke of the clock that ushers in
tiie first day of January, 1879. Be
would appreciate the force of Gen.
Toombs’ remark, “The Bible no
where tells us to take care of tho rich;
but it every whore tells us to take cure
of tho poor.” Nine-tenths of the
white producers of the South are in
debt, But, say the advocates of specie
resumption, that is a sectional view ;
iu questions like that of tho currency
we must view it in a national sense.
We reply tjiftt, when tjie nation ac
cord* to the South what is due to il
us an integral part of tho Union, we
can ufford to overlook our especial
necessities, but not until then. In
no election which has taken place
thus far has the unwise, unnecessary,
and cruel treatment of the South in
the |nut ten years been considered as
an element of strengt h for the Demo
cratic party. While, therefore, we
admit that the overthrow of Radical
ism is the paramount necessityof the
South, the recent elections havo by
no means convinced us that this
would be as strong an argument in
favor of the Democratic party
throughout the Union as would op
position to t iie National Bank system
and to specie resumption in January,
1879. Tho interests of 40,000,u00 of
people are against those of a few
thousand capitalists iu this contest,
and in this instanco the principle ex
pressed in tiie expression voxpopuli,
vox l)vi will prevail. “But,” says Dr.
Miller, “I consider it especially im
portant that the South should be the
first and the most persistent in de
manding a return to tho hard money
doctrine.” And tho object of this
volt-face measure is to defeat the Re
publican party. Tho ex-Senator con
tinues : "If, however, her people
come manfully to the front and de
mand honest money, and an honest
financial policy, it will boa proof
that she has thrown away her bitter
ness ; that all sectional prejudice lias
died out in her heart,” etc.
Now, wo submit that, it is not yet
time to “bond the pregnant hinges of
the knee, that thrift muy follow fawn
ing,” and that all sectional prejudice
has not died out iu her heart? We
have pursued the course of expedien
cy long enough; wo need such legis
lation as will repair the evils of re
construction, but that legislation is
not dependent upon uceepting tiie
terms of the bondholders. What
journal in New York city, Republican
or Democratic, lias declared against
hard money and speeio resumption?
Notone; it is not in the Democratic
nor the Republican decalogue, but. is
local in its bearings, and is regulated
by the simple fuot that certain sec
tions are debtor and certain sections
are creditor sections.
Would Not Go Into Action in an
Iron-Clad.—Dr. Joseph P. Thomp
son says Admiral Farragut once re
marked to him ; “I would never go
into battle in un iron-clad. I could
not handle my men, nor inspirit
them. If a bull strikes a wooden
ship, it sends a few splinters around,
two or three poor fellows are killed
or wounded, but tiie hole is soon
stopped, the deck cleared, and the
fight goes on. Rut in an irou-elad
tiie men feel from the first Unit they
are in their eoflin, for they know that
ifaholeis knocked in her side she
must sink, and it is much harder to
to get.up their spirit for tho light.
Give me a good ship of oak, and put
the iron into the men.”
Jefferson Davis is not eligible to
tho office of United Suites Senator.
His disabilities Imvo never been re
moved-disabilities created by the
Republican reconstructim acts. It
is well understood in Mississippi, us
by intelligent parties elsewhere.
Mr. Davis himself has no desire to
re-enter public life. If lie had, what
would be the objection from a Re
publican stand-point? The Vice-
President of the Southern Confedera
cy, Aiex. H. Stephens, was iu the
last Congress, and was highly re
spected by his Republican associates.

A NEW BOND.
Yesterday we learned that the Gov
ernor had notified OpJ. Jones, State,
Treasurer; that Ids the latter’s) bond
wnatnentifi<rtoiTt, nu<i cited the neti'of
liMfi, found Ju t)ib following sections
of tho Code:
Sec. 170. Sureties, how relieved. —
When tiie surety to any bond, given
by any officer for the performance of
any nubile duty, shall give notice, in
writing, to tile Governor of Ids ilcHirc
to be relieved from future liability,
for good cause therein staled and
sworn to, (ol whieli the Governor
shall be tho judge , or any such se
curity shall, in the opinion of the
Governor, formed upon satisfactory
evidence, become insufficient, it shall
bo Ids duty to require of such officer
anew bond and surety.
See. 17. Officer failing to give new
bond when required.—it any officer
-ihali fail foponipjy With slio.ii requi
sition within ten day* ft ora the date
he is served perabrially with a copy of
the Executive order containing such
requisition, he is by such failure re
moved from office and a vacancy de
clared.
Under the above provisions of tiie
law there was no alternative ami the
pro turn, vacancy must be doelured.
file Governor, alter due inspection
of the bond, found it insufficient and
sent it. lioiyc ’or verification. He felt
culled upon in the emergency, and
being aware of the fact that, many
thousands of dollars were to be paid
in a few days, to require anew bond.
TIIE OLD BOND,
according to tiie tax register, which
we personally examined, shows that
of flip parties upon this last named,
tlm following are tiie taxes returned :
John Jones. $20,949 on
John A. Jones 4,000 oo
Seaborn Jones 43,300 00
Butt Jones 2.700 IK)
A. R. Jones 31,25*2 oo
James D. Waddell 4.205 On
James M. Russell 4,8u0 no
Gen. 11. L. Henning 21,800 oo
These names represent an aggro
gate of $133,000, which is $07,000 less
than tho amount required by law.
Or course, if the bonds upon which
appears the names of Nutting and
Grant, is valid, the Slate is amply
secured, but we umlersmud tliat
these jittrUos elairn the turtiler deficit
of General Jones and that he lias
written letters to Nutting and Grant
announcing that the understanding
upon widen they agreed t,<> become
his bondsmen was, that such agree
ment should be tempomry and that
the kid-gloves should win the day.
These facts made it necessary for
the Governor to'act, and upon good
advice, he yesterday served notice of
the insufficiency of the bond, and re
quired that anew bond should bo en
tered into by the treasurer,
ANOTHER MOVE.
In the ten days whieh are allowed
for giving the new bond, it. is believed
that some half million dollars will be
paid into the treasury, and this is lia
ble to he cheeked upon at any mo
ment. To prevent, any possible disas
ter tot his, and because the treasurer
is under insufficint, bonds to entitle
him to exercise the office, the agree
ment has been made that all collec
tions of each day. turned over by the
comptroller to tiie treasurer, shall
be deposited in the Citizen’s hank
each afternoon, and the check nr de
posit. rendered to the comptroller to
cheek upon his books.
The above are the known facts of
Ihe ease, so far its they have trans
pired, and we forbear to give the
thousand and one rumors current
over the matter, until further steps
are taken. We might make a start
ling sensation, but the truth, we fear,
will, in the end, prove sensational
enough.

WHAT TREASrUER .10NE8 HAS TO SAY.
About, dusk yesterday afternoon a
representative of tho Constitution
called at the office of Treasurer Jones
to ascertain if lie had any statement
to make relative to the matter. Tiie
Treasurer received the reporter cour
teously, and expressed himself ready
to give alj pro|>er information.
Reporter—ls it true. Colonel, that
your bond has fallen below the
amount roquiryd by law?
Colonel Jones Yes, sir. The do
orcase iti my bond is Occasioned by
the death of Gen. 11. L. Henning, of
Columbus, one of ray sureties, and
tile division of his estate. My re
maining sureties are good to $129,000.
Reporter Has the Governor taken
any action relative to tiie bond?
Colonel Jones* -I have been served
with an order to strengthen my bond.
The main reason given in the pa tier
is the deal It of Gen. Henning. Ten
days are allowed me wherein to fur
nish new security. This I Expect to
do without difficulty, ami in a few
days expect to arrange a bond which
will bo perfectly satisfactory to till
concerned.
This was the substance of what the
Treasurer had to say,and the report
er withdrew.—Atlanta Constitution,
17th.

From the third district or this State,
is n candidate for speaker of that,
body. Mr. Kerr is a hard-money
Democrat and t tie tool of the East
ern bond-holders, and does not rep
resent t lie views ot the Democracy
oft Ilia State. He was only elected
by the skin of ins teeth, after falsify
ing his views and pretending to be in
oeeord with Demoeratie State plat
form. Now, wo take this method of
informing Judge New that he will be
expected to vote against Mr. Kerr
each and every time. The Demo
crats and Republicans of Decatur
county who elected Him to his pres
ent position demand this of him, and
we believe it to he the sentiment of
the whole party in this district.
The Governor has appointed tive
following gentlemen to represent tiie
State of Georgia in the Southern Pa
oitie Railroad Convention, to be held
in St. Louis on the 21st hist:
Gen. Joseph E. Johnston and W. T.

The Washington correspondence o!
tti/J iNew York World gives some in
P resting details of tiie preparations
fo| tile XUIVlii Congress, which
elites together in four weeks. Al
o-ady the scmoii may besuid to have
| fairly opened. The Capital has shak
leu oil its summer lethargy, and ho
tels are filling up, and the demand
for houses is almost unprecedented,
j These signs of the coming rush are
mainly attributable to tlm political
change of one branch of Congress, to
the promised activity of the Centen
nial year, and to the Presidential
campaign of 1870. The Senate and
Huujse Hulls are being placed in or
der, ami the President’s, Vice-Presi
dent’s ami Speaker’s rooms are re
ceiving unusual adornment, that
they may be attractive not only to
the officials who occupy them, hilt to
the thousands who will visit them in
I lie corning season. The interest in
the new Congress, of course, centres
in ihe organization of the House of
Representatives. It will lie eighteen
sears since a Democratic Speaker
tins been elected, arid in that interval
the Republican party lias eontroled
the House for nine consecutive Con
gresses. Of the 292 members of the
next House, the Democrats have 178,
the Republicans lUB, and the Inde
pendents 0. Of the various candi
dates for the Speukership, Kerr, of
Indiana; Randall, of Pennsylvania;
Cox and Wood, of Now York; Haylei*.
of Ohio; Holman, of Indiana; and
Lamar, of Mississippi, were members
of preceding Congresses, while
Payne, of Ohio, and Walker, of Vir
ginia, are new members. The rela
tive strength of the various candi
dates is variously estimated, and by
the first week in December figures
alone may l>e brought, into requisi
tion for tiie 11 rst time to show who is
ahead. Those Democratic members
who imvo visited Washington express
their desire to vote for a candidate
whose record as a Democrat Is free
from local and “entangling allian
ces,” and who will reflect, the highest
honor "and credit on his party ami
tho country. Next to the Speaker
tiie Clerk is the most important offi
cer of the House, and for this as well
as tho minor offices there is no lack
of candidates. It is generally conce
ded, however, that t he Clerkship will
go to the South, which advances no
claims to the first position.
