On The subject Of the Georgia Legislature
the Georgia Journal says :--'It is an exceed
ingly fortunate thing for the country that this
body adjourned its session on Saturday night
last, or rather on Sunday morning.
Had remained IN session a longer period
oftime, there remains no doubt upon our minds,
bu, tia, the intelligence and virtue of the mi
nority would have proven totally insufficient to
put a stop to that wild, dissolute, and corrupt
system Of lcgislation which has characterized
tduring the past six weeks. Indeed we feel
perfectly satisfied that the country, already
brought to the verge ola precipice ofruin, would
have been hurled over into the horrible vortex,
by prolongation ofthis ever-to-be-remember-
Cd session of 1889. 1t is for this reason, and
for many others that we congratulate the
country upon the adjournment Of the Legisla-
tare.
among the many, very many, dlsgraceful
acts which have signaized the Legislature Of
1889, is the position in which the Senate, or
rather a majority of that body, headed by MIR.

It's acton upon the controversy between the
State Of Maine and the State of Georgia. That
our readers may fully understand the attitude
which the State now occupies with regard to
this controversy, by the dasiardly conduct o.
an ignoble majority of the Senate, we propose
mthis article to present our readers with a
brief history Of the progress of this important
affair, in botrbranches of the legislature

hopes, but we fear he has not a musical ear. We
fear he has not read the ballads written against him
and does not know the tunes to which they are
set
We had written thus far when the thought struck
us that we had heard of persons who died of their
own music. Mozart, for example, died of his own
Requiem. We somewhere read the other day, an
account of young lady who actually sang and
played herself to death. The swan, as the ancient
poet said, after screaming horribly all its life, ex-
pires in singing, and who knows but this may be
the euthanasia of the wing party' The idea is
very probable. As we approach the November
election, and as the indications of the final issue
grow clearer and clearer the wing party, we are
suspicious, will begin as the cant phrase has it, to
" sing small, )" until its strains shall die away grad
ualy into complete silence unless, like the boy in
one of Chaucer's tales, who chaunted Justify with
his throat cut from ear to ear, it continues TO sing
after it is fairly dead. 1t is, perhaps, presumpu-
Gus in us to make the suggestion to persons so well
skilled in music as the wings, but we cannot help
thinking, that by way of preparing for the worst,
it would be well for them to set a portion of the
