SATURDAY. APRIL 10,1881. Tbb Barn welt, (S. C.) People says: “We are reliably informed that, some sections of tho country, colored laborers are enrolling themselves in labor leagues and pledging themselves to work for no white man after the present year for love, money or an in terest in (crops. They prefer renting land and'getting advances.’’ Ha. Barkis’ book, “Uncle Reznns, 1 has been reprinted in England. The Appletons have a copy of the English edition; it is much handsomer than the American. It is understood that the Appletons will enlarge their book with additions that Harris will make, to the rise of Hark Twain’s “Tramp Abroad,” and put it on as one of their Standard subscription books. Eight hundred men are engaged in digging out the Chicago and North western Bailway, west of Sleepy Eye, Minn. Tbs track is buried under a mass of snow and ice, on which the shn makes no impression, and which can only be removed with picks and shovels. The company has expended almost enough money shoveling snow on this tine this winter to have con structed a new road. ■ ■ ■ ..... The flow of gold to this country con tinues without abatement. The steam, ship Republic, which arrived on the 26th of Muroh, brought $1,000,000; the Wyoming, on the 22d, brought anoth er million, and the Bank of England has parted with over $600,000 for shipment to New York. The drain of gold from France has been so serious that the bank has suspended gold pay ment, and in the Paris market gold at a premuim of one-half of one per Thi Jacksonville Union says: The Macon and Brunswick railroad will spend $60,000 in Brunswick and a tike sum in Macon for depot buildings They have also given orders for $60,' 000 worth of new cars. The same pa per learns that the rails on the Way cross line are now laid half a mile be yond Callahan. The gap between the two gangs of track-layers has been dosed to about fifteen miles, and the work is progressing at the rate of mile and a half per day. At this rate the opening of this tine will not be much longer delayed. Bradstrist's report of futures for the first quarter of 1881 shows that there were 1,068, as against 1,394 for the corresponding period of 1880, and 2,350 for 1879. This increase of fail- area is dueln a large measure to the long continued severity of the winter in the Western and Northwestern States, from which mpny of theso failures is reported. It is to be feared, too, that the second quarter will also show an unsatisfactory increase of failures over last year, for following the severe winter, there is every indi cation of a spring of freshets. Atlanta Poet-Appeal: Colonel C. B. Howard, of Cartersville, has got several trenches out at the fair grounds filled with thousands of paper bags that contain earth, in which he has planted cotton seed, so as to have an early crop for the cotton exposition. The paper bags hold about one quart The trenches containing the bags are about three feet wide and one deep. A layer of cotton seed is placed at the bottom of the trenches to the depth of two inches to generate the heat and draw moisture, and then the paper bags are packed in closely together, where they will remain until the new cotton plants get to be eight to ten inches high. Then the paper bags, each con taining a plant, will be taken and trans planted in a field near by. Is the trial of the parties charged with complicity in the murder of the late Ciar, which is in progress at St Petersburg, the accused made admis sions which, in the opinions of the pro curator, would tend to shorten the trial. JeliaboH the coolest of the prisoners, stated that Ronssskoff knew nothing of the preparation for the mur der until the day it was effected, and that Hichaelof(.another prisoner, was entirely unconnected with it The telegrams of the foreign press repre sentatives were detained, and they were informed that they would not bs forwarded unless countersigned by the assistant'prosecutor. The trial was concluded, and the sentence of death by hanging was pronounced upon the accused. The sentence of the woman Piefosky has been refened to the Czar, as she is of noble birth. The Month As soon as: President the cepted the verdict 'n without a murmur of discontent They bad done all in their power to df-fjat him at the ballot box, but failing there, they quietly withdrew, and ac cepting the situation, retired from poli tics. All the complaints or dissatisfac tion the South seemed to entertain to- Mr. Garfield were expressed in terms during the time he occupied the position of a candidate for it tor spoils. “Do Rcpnblibtin Senators that, by giving Mahone the at-Arms and the disposal of the Feder ate disposal< it will tram nl patronage, it will transfer tho Re publican parly of Virginia to {he re pudiating faction of tho Democratic party? The Republicans of that State, as everywhere else, will stand by the suffrage. Since that time his own par- Republican doctrine—the maintenance ty has muttered much discontent There were not offices enongh for the herds of politicians who had hoped for succor nndcr his administration, hence the usual family fracas. Dissatisfac tion has increased rapidly in the Re publican party, since the day Mr. Gar field was inaugurated. The selection of Mr. Blaine to the most prominent position in the President's Cabinet lias proven a stumbling block to Conkling’g free will, and the New York Senator, who ha* heretofore considered himself a considerable proportion of the Repub lican party, finds himself check mated by a man of too much firmness. Conkling’8 followers, who are many, express their chagrin at Garfield's re fusal to overthrow Blaine’s influence and heed the dictates of their fa vorite leader, hence a serious disturb ance between two powerful component parts of tho stalwart party. Not only are these elements at log- girhead, bat turning we sec evidences of discontent between sections—the East and the West do not agree on what the President’s policy should be, nor in the appointments he made. There is a general family row, and the out look now seems to indicate Mr. Gar field will either be compelled to with draw some of his appointments or there will be serious division in the Repub lican party. Many appointments {bare been made by the President, which the Senate absolutely refuses to act upon, and notwithstanding the fact that we are ruled by a Republican President and a Republican Senate, there is a sad want of harmony between these two func tionaries. Amid all this disturbance wc re joice to seo the South quietly refusing to act in the premises. Determined to accept the situation onr 'people ex press no surprise at Mr. Garfield’s, policy, nor .dissatisfaction at the war which is being made upon him. They are playing tho role of “mum” to per fection, and laugh at the ridiculous at titude of a party in its last agonies; a party overweighted with dangerous power and sinking day by day, not at the hands of that Democracy which resisted its ascendency Jto [this jpower, but the power itself is proving it* most oppressive foe. A Cougre s of Railroad Commis sioners. One of the provisions of the bill re cently adopted by the Alabama Legis lature creating a Railroad Commission for that State, requires the commission to corresp6nd with the commissions of other States for tbe purpose of holding a congress, at which aro to be discuss ed all matters pertaining to railroad traffic. In compliance with tbe provision of the bill just referred to, the commis sion of Alabama has opened correspon dence with the commissions of other States’ proposing that a congress be held some time early in the summer, and the Courier-Journal is our au thority for the'statcmenl that Louis ville, Ky, has been sugges ted by the Alabama commission as the place of meeting. We have seen no mention made of this matter in regard to the Georgia commission, and are there fore nnable to say whether the propo sition to hold a congress is endorsed by them or not. It seems to os, how ever, that onr commission could lose nothing, and might perhaps gain some thing by meeting and co-operating with those of other States. Tho principal object of this propos ed congress, as we nndei stand it. is to devise a statute for the regulation of all railroad traffic, applicable to all tbe States having commissions, which shall then he presented to the various Legis latures for enactment. Other matters of importance will also be discussed, and tho congress would number some forty odd members, as there are now fifteen commissions in operation. Costrabt to general opinio 1 , an ex tra session of Congress costa but very little money, because members and most of tho employes arc paid whether Congress sots or not. Some of our ex change* have been figuring up the ex pense of Congress to the tax payers which is about as follows: The sum of $1,63 000 is required to pay tbe sala ries of tho members of the House and their mileage. In addition to this tho last house voted itself $125 for each member for newspapors and post age stamps, making an additional $37,725. The clerk disbursed on ac count of salaries to stationery employ es $221,439 last year, exclusive of $25, ■ 000 which the treasury departmert pud direct to the stenographers. Dur ing a recess the persons who receive are only about 100 less than at other times. Tbe cost for the Senate is about $600,000 a year, nearly $400,000 going for salaries and mileago, and tho remainder being di vided among the employes. The Western girl, who tried to oat- fast Dr. Tanner, died on the 12th. She couldn't perform the feat. Immediate ly after death a post mortem examina tion was nude by Dr. Cowperthwaite, dean of the homoeopathic department of the university. Not a drop of blood was fonnd in tbe body, which weighed forty-five pounds. The stomach was ily void of any substance. No farther particular* have yet been e public." It is said that a strong < been formed in Chicago for pose of getting! and re erator cars po* of the integrity of the nation and of the Stntes to whom' thpy arc indebted. Carry ont the bargain, Republican Senators, and yon elect a man to he yont Secretary [who not only recentjv made speeches all over California against the Republican State. ticket, but is now denouncing through the newspaper be edits the Republican President because he dated to nomi nate a Collector of the Port of New York without getting on his knees to ask Mr. Conkling whether he might do it or not. 1< it not'time to pause? The murmurs against this thing, which are now borne on erery breeze that 'reaches the Capitol, will soon swell into a tornado of public^opinion that will bodo no good to the Republican party.” Limited number of Books. 1 Watch and Chain Li.dics Jewelry Oar Railroad Commission. A writer in the Branswick Adver tiser and Appeal in discussing the Railroad Commission law, takes a posi tion somewhat similar to onr own. He favors a commission, but thinks its powers should be llknited. He submits five sensible and practicable proposi tions, os follows: First—That act should be amended by adopting as law such rules of gen eral operation as have been shown by experience to prevent pooling; and combination of comepctitionjines to de feat competition. Second—The act should be amend ed to prevent pooling over railroad and steamboat lines, which are wholly within the State. In other words the system of water communication should be placed, where within the State, under legislative con trol if practicable, and if not, no railroad should be permitted to enter into con tract with a steamboat line plying in the State, which will amount to a subsidy to prevent freights from taking their natural destination to a market, and force it over the road making the con tract. Third—If the Commissioners are to make tariffs for tho roads, amendments i ~ 7i' . should provide that each road should a 1 c * otl thL have a special tariff, based upon the past earnings, capital, etc., of that road. Fourth—Would it not be better that the act should provide a system of carefully digested general rules, under which tariffs should be made by the roads, and tbe duty of the commission ers be to pass upon the tariffs so made, to ascertain whether they conform to the rules laid down in the act and with power to modify the tariffs where they do not conform to such rules. Fifth—In other words, would it not be wiser aud better to so amend the act as to make the commissioners a court with powers to pass upon the tariffs made by tho roads, and with power to nrbitrato and settle matters of difference between tho roads and indi viduals, and between the roads and lo calities upon cases properly made. These are bnt crude ideas, and are in tended only as suggestions. That Legislation which while secur ing competition and preventing unjust discriminations permits the railroads to earn a fair return opon the investment, thus stimulating railroad construction and tho development of our material resources; and tbe investment of for eign capital, is tho legislation to be de sired. and collected thereon, has to meet the requirements of this Honest and in- bear the burden of the nt, while those who either misinterpret the law or purposely vio late the : r oaths escape the expense. Besides this fact, which, when prov en, shows the. fa'lacy of onr tax laws, there are several species of property upon which is imposed doable taxation. As an illustration of the first propo sition, we will state That the books of tax receivers of the several counties, during the past ten ycafs, will show grossly incorrect returns or personal estates; on household and kitchen fur niture, jewelry, books, etc. We ven ture the Assertion that in Dougherty county ntrleast one-half of this class of property escapes taxation. We know citizens whom we believe tube really honest, but who make.returns (without fair and careful calculation.) amounting to $300 worth of household effects, who could not refurnish their residences for four times that amount of money. To illustrate, let us estimate the cost of furnishing a THBKE ROOM cottage, and include therein some few persona! effects : I Parlor Set 1 Piano 1 Bed Room Set.... 1 Sewing Machine.. 1 Dining Room Set. Crockery and Glass ware $150.00 250.CC 150,00 35,00 75.00 25.00 50,00 150,00 25,00 1 Kitchen Stove 25,00 Tin: Savannah Homing News an nounces tho arrival in that city of the colony of German immigrants, brought out through the influence of Commis sioner Fonta'ne, and says: “They were met Saturday morning on their arrival in the steamship City of Columbus by the committee appointed at the meeting on Friday night of German citizens of Savannah. There were twenty-nine men and two women in the party, and all are hale, hearty looking people. Host of the men are married and have left their fainilcs in the old country until they are comfortably settled, when they propose to send for them. They were escorted to the Planter’s Hotel, where they were hospitably entertain ed, and where Dr. Louis Knerr, Chair man of tho Reception Committee, made a formal brief address in German wel coming them to Georgia, and enlighten ing them as to the advantages offered by the State to settlers. During the morning qnitc a number of our German citizens called upon the new comers and had friendly converse with them. Only a few of the party could speak a little English, and hence they seemed delighted to meet their countrymen and talk in their mother language. One of the women, yonng and unmarried, had been engaged as house servant for a private family in .Atlanta and left for her now home last evening by the Cen tral Railroad. Tbo others left in the afternoon for Lumber City, where they are to locate.” Total. $935,00 Now everyone will a-ree with us that wo have put •. -\v value on each article mentinr , and wc doubt not the insurance policies in the possession of many of our citizens would cover every dollar of it. It is positively true, nevertheless, that there arc not six citizens of Albany who return as much os $935,00 worth of household and kitchen furniture and jewelry. Yet, there arc qnitc a number of six and eight room dwellings, all elegantly furnished ; this statement may be painful to some, still it is true, and the honest toilers, who retire at night to tbeir humble homes, with receipts for taxes paid in their pockets, ought to know how unjustly they arc treated. Legislature to correct the wrong. Our second proposition is that a cer tain clnss of property is double taxed under our laws. For instance A bays a piece of property from R, for which A gives his note and takes a fee simple title. Tax return day comes. A gives in the value of the property and B returns ©e “solvent note.” This note merely represents the prop erty which has passed out of B’s hands, yet both arc taxed. There is no justice in this. Let tho law bo changed. Let tax’ assessors bo appointed to examine personal property ami fix true value thereon, and then there will bo no fur ther cry under the pressure that is now imposed npon carefully calculating and law-abiding citizens. Thebe is a sign of dissolution of po litical parties in the air; and it really looks as though tbe politicians were to be overthrown. To say nothing of tho unsettled state of national politics, the fight between President Garfield and Boss Conkling, we tarn to munici pal affairs and find that the Democrats elected a Mayor in the Radical city of Cincinnati, and carried CTcry municipal election in the Republican State of Ne braska, while tho Repub icans retaliat ed by sweeping tho cities of that Dem ocratic stronghold, Missouri. Not only did St. Louis show a Republican tri umph, but tho second city In the State— Kansas City—as well, electing a fall Republican city ticket for the first time since it was organized. An occasional shaking np of thi* kind will prove ben eficial to the country. Event v.balanced scales prevent corruption. Carry the .Nenr*. Waiver of Homesteads. Tho Monroe Advertiser presents the following review of our homestead laws, which will be read with interest in this section. The picture is rather a doleful one, and should stimulate our farmers to make theirown supplies and rid thomsclres of all interest in home stead laws: It is high time that the people un derstand and truly realize what is meant by a “waiver of homestead.” It was a grave question in the past—it is graver at the present, and will be gravest in the future. A brief history of our legislation upon the subject mar not be amiss Until the Constitution o' 1377 a mere waiver in writing wav not binding upon tho person signing, but it required a mortgage specifying the particular property to which the waiver was to ap ply, or the contract could not be en forced- The case of Simmons vs. Anderson which went to the Supreme Court from Monroe county, affirmed the proposition requiring the specification or particular property to be exempted by a mortgage contract A mere promisory note, a general waiver was deemed not binding, and against the public policy regulating the relation of creditor and debtor. To obviate and to destroy the force of the decisions of onr courts and other courts of tho Union holding to the same doctrine, a system of log rolling was inaugurated in and aroand the convention of 1877 upon the subject of the waiver homestead and it was final ly determined npon motion of Mr. Crane, of Fulton, that any waiver in writing signed by the party owning ti tle; should be sufficient It required no form, (a- mere letter indeed was sufficient) No description of property —no attempt at conveyance of title, bnt a mere general waiver was suffi cient to cover down to tbo enforcement or the execution, any and all property owned at that timo the debt was creat ed, and any acquired up to the final enforcement of the contract by process of law. In other words, the constitution of 1878 and the laws passed in persuaccc of it, giva you a homestead in one breath, and in the next breath, give you authority, to destroy it. Tbe tew is so written. What now. Let us consider the remedy. Have we anyby tew? In our judgment none. We are at the mercy of the bargain. Whether it be the result of poverty, usury or oppres sion. We mean by ‘usury,’ time prices for goods. Technically, perhaps, usury would apply to the loan of money. Legally the definition might be enlarged. To wbat extent or how, it is not onr purpose to inquire. It is very clear to our mind that corn only worth 85 cento in Jane or Jaly, ought not to be worth $LI0 in October or November. We have not time nor fig ures to discuss the usury of sueh a More especially when • contract is supplemented with a up that should have and freighted erenlm^ Prov._.^. Here we are, nearly the middle of April—no corn planted, that is in right, ronr guano, in many instances, scattered to the winds, negroes eating up your home*, lightning mortgages lying asleep in the safes, to wake np for yonr benefit in October. Look out! Col. Cabet W. Sttles, well known t) most of onr readers, publishes an in teresting announcement to “the land owners along tho lines of railroads in South Georgia,” to which wc call special attention. .This is a move for immi gration in the right direction, and the railroad authorities and Mr. Tillman have secured the services of the right man for the good woTk. We call special attention to the letter of Col. Styles, published elsewhere in this issue. _ ‘•I’m all Played out.” Hew Badfo-d euaduiL is a commmon complaint If you feel so, get a package of Kidney Wort and take it and you will at once 'eel its tonic power.
