RESULT OF TIE WAR.

Our people, North and South are
slow to understand that the war changed
-revolutionized-the very nature and
spirit Of the government. Secession on
the one side and coersion on the other
was the abandonment of government
resting on the consent Of the governed
and the substitution of government
founded upon force. There is just
where we are. Our Northern friends
iattered themselves they were fighting
for the Union-and so they were--but,
not for the voluntary Union founded by
our Fathers, but for a .f0rciJle Union
resting on Conquest.
Congress made a new people and re-
constructed the South. 1t adopts the
amendment to the Constitution, Article
10 controlling the whole question Of
suffrage; and many of our people stand
aghast at the march to Capitalization and
despotism. Why, despotism is the
principle upon which North waged the
war; it is the principle upon which the
government is now really founded and the
only rational question is, where will this
principle of force find a limitH For
oursclf, when we look upon the doca-
dence of public virtue-the domOraliza-
ton of all our popular bodies we are not
sure that all the States ia this vas. do.
main do not need some Central over.
ruling power, equal at least to the
vigor doomed essential by Hamilton al
the foundation of the government. But
it is not what we woald have or wouldn't
have. The principle Of the government
is now ono of force, and there is no
check from tho States-none from the
Constitution none left but popular sui
frage, and that is being so extended and
degraded that it may soon become the
means of giving still more important re-
suits to the law of force. The National
democratic Party may appeal to the old
Constitution-the old Union but it will
be like our prayers to our people not to
secede, whistling against the wind
When tho Israelites wanted King he
had to be sent. If we need one he will
come in spite of democracy.

r-g Gov. BULLOCK offers reward
for the apprehension of Richie, the
murderer of the Sheriffs of Pickens coun-
t., and forbids any other papers than
those named from publishing the Proc
lamation. The JOURNAL circulates
largely in the region involved and we
do not sec what interest justice or the
State has in forbiding its publication in
tho JOURNAL.

LEGISLATIVE.

The House made the bill to provide
for a system of Common Schools spe.
cial order for the odd, that being also
the day for the consideration of the I'm
migration Bill.
We differ with many of our planting
friends as to tho contemplated results OF
the latter bill. Their object is to induce
Iaborers from abroad. Immigration will
not bring the labor they desire. 1t will
bring the State increase of capital-in-
crease of population-increased produc-
ton and an increase Of holders, but
very few laborers to take the places of
the negroes. The contemplated cxpen-
diture of $4,000 for the purpose may
be made productive of great good to the
State in opening our cheap lands. to i'm
migration.
We are indebted to Mr.. z. D. Harri-
son for copy of the Jury Law recently
adopted. 1t requires the Ordinary,
Clerk of the Superior Court and three
Commissioners to meet in June bicnnially
and select from the book of the Tax Re-
ceiver outright and intelligent persons"
to act as Jurors. Ordinarily Special
Jurors will be selected from the Petit
Juries but at the discretion of the Judge
they may be selected from the Grand
Jury. Otherwise the new law differs
not materially from the old one.
A bill was introduced to move the
Capitol back to Millodgeville to meet,
perhaps, that other bill, to appropriate
the Capitol at Millodgcville for GeOr-
gia Military Institute.
The change in the time of holding
Cherokee Superior Court relates to the
Summer Term, and is to be held on the
fourth Monday in July instead of the first
Monday in August.
The House adopted the recommends
ton of its Committee to adjourn on the
5th., of March. Amended aftcrward We
believe in the Senate to the 10th.
On the 23rd., the House had under
discussion and referred to ajoint Commit
tee of three from the Senate and live from
the House the bill to establish common
School system. Mr.. Scott Of Floyd re
marked that the system would cost $40,
900, 900 and truly said it would bankrup
the State. The system we suppose is tt
educate all colors.
The Land and Immigration bill wa
finally laid on the table.

BULLOCK AND THE STATE TREAS
URY.

What is the Use of LegislatureP
The white washing report Of the Leg
islative Committee on the unauthorized
disbursement by Bullock of thousands OF
dollars of the peoples money, argues,
that he had precedents-that Governors
may exercise their discretion in appro-
priating the public money. A promis-
ing picture of the general issue, truly
But, the Committee could not complete
ly white-wash Atlanta. That city, to
secure the Capitol, had agreed Ito fur
nish suitable buildings for the Legisla-
ture free of all cost" and it was, the
committee thought; little to blame In
permitting the Governor to use up
wards of $4,000 of tho States money
for thiS purpose.
AS to tho private financial arrange
ments of the Governor and the man who
did the furnishing we are left entirely in
the dark. They may or may not have
been all right, but it strikes us as passing
strange that with tho furniture from Mil
ledgoville, supposed to be sufficient, ad-
ditional furniture and the heating alone
Of the building, should have involved
an expenditure of nearly $4,000. We
are afraid that our State Government
legislative and executive is moving OF
tho higb-pressurc principle-in sxtrava
ganco-to say the least of it.
We find from the action of the Hous,
en- the Report of the investigating Com
mittee that the majority report was no
adopted. The minority report denounc
ing the unlawful use of the public none,
by Bullock was sustained by vote Q
so to 40.

THE ATLANTA NEW ERA

Claims to be the worst-abused paper in
the State. We have never abused it.
We detested military reconstruction
Congressional usurpation of the control
of the sufrage-negro voting and all
who abettcd them, and, yet, with this
dctestation as profound as it is possible to
feel, we have not been insensible to many
redeeming traits in the Era. In the
first place it is, usually speaking, one of
the neatest, cleanest, papers in the State,
and such an appearance indicates a
taste akin to virtue. Then the Era
frankly told us that it was no time to
hagglc about principlcs-it was going
for policy, and politically, at an early
day it tied on to Grant, and has consist
emily held its hold. Recently it has
taken ground against the Bullock move
ment to remand the State to disorganiza-
tion and appears to BIO thoroughly hon
est in its desire that there shall be no
more discord, anarchy or military gov
eminent for Georgia.

An OPPRESSIVE TAX.-At the last session of

afternoon week heavy tornado passed over por-

but mcagre as yet, but we learn that great dam
aye has undoubtedly been done. We first hear OF
the storm on Fouk's road about two miles from
the Concord pike, it seems to have swept east
ward from that point and taken a somewhat cir
cular route MS il passed over Claymont during
considerable damage.
The storm uprooied trees destroyed fences,
and almost totally ruined the growing corn along
its course, not only laying it fiat, but tearing
much OF it out of the ground by the roots.
