The wild Cats at Home.

On the first page of the Tribune, we publish,
this morning, the Report of Committee of the
Georgia Senate, On the affairs of the Atlanta
Bank. 1t is a somewhat remarkable document
and it places the bank and its affairs in an I'M
enviable attitude.
From the indications given in that Report we
are warranted in the conclusion that short work
will be made of that wildcat, and that others
of the feline species win follow in its wake
and from the indications here we are not mista-
ken in saying that the action proposed by the
Report is not needed the battle is fought and
won and. so far as Illinois is concerned, ii is a
matter of indifference whether the charter is
repealed or not. Taking away the right to make
wildcat money in that mill from which so much
has been ground out, may protect some other
community but no abridgement of the privil-
eyes of the concern will affect the circulation of
its notes in the Northwest The people, acting
quite independently of Georgia, have decided
that matt er for themselves. 1t will nevertheless
be qualification to see that power is about to
be wrested from the hands that have so long
abused it.-Chicaqo Tribune.

MONROE, THE MURDERER.-The case of this
young man, who is shortly to undergo the pun
ishsnenf Of death, for the horrid crime of which
he has been convicted by jury, ought to be a
warning'to all those who yield themselves I'M
willing victims to vicious habits
We understand that he was rather a fast
young man, and that married the daughter
of the lanented Ellington, contrary to the wishes
of her parents more for the purpose of aequir-
ing property than any thing else But, notwith-
standing her parents were opposed to the match
had Momoe given satisfactory evidence of sin
cere reformation. Mr.. Ellington would in due
time, have treated him as a son. But the eager
mes Aof Monroe to get means to keep up his fast
hal ;, would brook no delay, and he became
the worm enemy of both father and mother of
the aughter whom he lad taken to his BOSOM
W. he found lie could not get from Mr.. e.
In On the pecuniary means he so much coveted
lie Rmmenced course of abuse against Mr..
and Mrs. Ellington, which be continued, with
llttl-. abatement, up TO the time of the murder
Tie evidence in the case, as published III the
Charleston Coa1ier shows flat Monroe had SO
repeatedly made rash threats against Ellington.
that me of the Witnesses began to look upon
him as mere bTaggart, and thought there was
little or no danger of the bloody tragedy that
has already taken one of the best men IN the
country TO the tomb and is shortly TO take one
Vt the worst to the gallows. Upon several oc-
casions he had said he would give fifty dollars
II get Ellington into a difficulty, in order that
he might kill him; and showed pair of Minnie
pistols which he carried for the purpose. His
I3alce seems TO have been of the darkest dye
which he nursed for months until it gained the
mastery over lis cowardiy nature sufficiently to
perpetrate a foul murder. The verdict of the
jury is well warranted by the facts in the case.

and this is The first fair and square victory ever

Banks from taking the chair, after he was elect
ed. But this was too much for decency Gov
