merits of,the, bill as whole. It IL q
result, in his. view, OF !, the determined
attitude the people, 10 secure some
relief. Of appskfance Of relief. from an
intolerab!e Burden. I. is the answer 10
. popular demand-not suggestion Of
wise craftsmanship.
It remains to be seen whether the
holders OF bonds will accede to the
terms, supposing that the bill goes suo-
cessfu!ly through the steps necessary to
make it u law. It takes two to make q
bargain. 1t is, OF course. very desira-
BILE to reduce tue debt. as il is more than
desirable to curtail expenses generally,
and cut of extravsganoe and reform
abuses. But much more acceptable
bill than this could be framed to accom-
plish this object. There il GLASS of
bonds sacrificed in it that ought to be
paid dollar for dollar. There are many
others that might in equity be scaled at
Q rate lower than ,hity oents in the dol
lar The former suffer the fate Of being
found in bad company. But wise and
just legislation would make proper dis
ordinations between them. The best
thing about this bill, as it now stands.
is the exclusion Of the clamorous and
doubtful claims. which it was so in
dastriously and pertinaOiously sought
to inject into it.
In the Senate, last evening, the House
tax bin was discussed al length. The
6rat section, which levies q tax to meet
appropriations to pay salaries of the e1-
ecutive and judicial officers of tho State.
was fixed ut one and quarter mills.
The same rate was fixed upon in the
second section for the penal, charitable
and educational institutions of the State,
exclusive of common schools. The
third section was passed to meet appro-
priations for the support of the public
schools-levJiDg two mills for the pur-
pose. There WAS long Debate, on mo.
ton Of Dunn, to substitute one and
three quarter mills in place of two. 1t
was lost.

SPEECH OF Mr. STEPHENS. After a
careful reading of his speech, our i'm.
partial judgment is. that Dir. Stephens
made an inauspicious beginning in de-
Tending a measure the propriety and
honesty of which are condemned by the
people, irrespective Oi party. .ihe views
OF Mr.. Stephens on the aalary bill are
not the views Of the people Of Gsorgiu,
who, with one accord, denounce its re-
troactive features NJ unjustifiable in q
moral point OF view. Mr.. Stephens has
made mistake iii lending the influence
OF his great name to a measure which is
condemned by the common sense of ho.
nesty OF the American people. The ex.
ira pay Of IS. .00O TO each member of
Congress was voted on the last day OF
the session Of an expiring Congress.
Butler could defend this grab because
he has never been scrnpulous in recog.
nizing the difference between B.eun, ei
.uum But that Mr.. Stephens should
Jump into tho arena of debate on q cues.
ton of such doubtful propriety, and
justify measure which has been con.
demDed by Republicans and Democrats
with unprecedented Immunity, is in.
comprehensive to his warmest friends.

crestfallen during the whole of yester-

with proposing few verbal alterations
in it's text. Mr.. Whittemore, the cham.

only in getting in one OF his batch of

How It Is.

It is common occurrence for advertisers to
order advertisements in the paper. not to
BIO stopped until ordered out by the adver-
tiser. The advertisement runs for months.
Finally. the publisher drops it out without
instructions, presents the bill, when the adj
vertiser says, ''What made you let that
thing run SO long7 Your bill is awful high.
You might have known did not want that
advertisement in the paper SO long," He
pays the bill, but grudgingly, and proba-
bly, quits the paper-why7 Because he HIM
sell, has been negligent. The Shreveport
Times illustrates the situation Of an adver-
tiser OF this class, who becomes offended at
his bill, by this forcible and truthful COM
parison:
This would be precisely as If man wore
to instruct a grocer to send him certain
aticle every day until he contaminated
it every day until he countermanded the
order, and amer receiving 1t and using it every
day, on sediment contends that he had no
intention Of taking the article SO often.

be the recipient OF the advantages of an

Those little houses on the river front,
built SO as to stand just over tho dip of the
river, are never safe. They require careful
watching continually. About 1866 Joo
Benoit went huriedly into ono of those
small ornamental houses of our little
city. After q bit, the foundations gave
way, and of a sudden house and Joe went
precpitately into the river. Joe is not Il
swimmer, but tho closed door flew opon by
tho upward rush of water, and ZOO came
putting up to the surface, made fast to Il
friendly log, and was rescued by some
darkies standing on the bank.
On Tuesday, Henry Dobson went has
tily into one Of these buildings, in rear of
Pierce's saloon. The little house began to
settfo and mako n noise. It stood on the
worry brink. Some ono had just time to
| yell, Look out! when tho rear foundations
fell ont, and house and occupant started
full forty feet down tho sloping bank.
Midway tho house struck some piling, and
burstcd all to pieces. Dobson kept on, heels
over head. His long logs frailed tho air rs
no went on, and dimly shot through his
mind tho thought he was bound to find
bottom. AT tho waters brink was cabIed
an old cypress log. Dobson struck this log
in his decent, and scnscless and broat}1less
from his fall, stopped in his mad career.
Friends Mt once scrambled down tho bank
and gathered up tho apparently li1elcss
form. Dobson ''came to" directly, and now
says that "cxcusing out" Joe Bcnoit no is

chita Tho Johnny Wiso was dropping
down past tho spot at tho limo, and wit

| pant. The house was total wreck, and

AS also his unmentionables. He then went
to tho barber shop, and had his hair curlcd.

1mpeaching ..Auditor'' clinton.

Sundays New Orleans Herald contains
the following item:
The Impeachment of Clinton is now said
to have been definitely determined upon by
tho most powerful ring in tho Kellogg Log
islature. The charges have all been made
out, and it is asserted by those who claim to
be familiar with the interior workings of
tho rings, that the fight will be short, sharp
and decisive. UNFORTUNATELY there is not a
very brilliant prospect for getting II very
virtuous or heightened individual in the
Auditors Office, but ono thing is very cer-
tain, there could not be worse man than
Clinton selected to suppressed him. There
is no man in tho Radical party in this State
who has SO supreme q contempt for law and
for decency, or who would raid upon the
State Treasury with so littlo conjunction
of.conscience, rs this psalm-singing tool of
kellogg.
