notably TeXas. The raIl roads, It'll said

lgated one after all, but rather BLESSING
in disguise"
The Atlanta (Ga.,) Herald, adds the
following ''As subject of engrossing
interest aud Importance, we present some
further facts bearing upon the threatened
emigration Of the negroes from Georgia

Orleans line, replies to the charge that

saying that the Wes.ern and Atlantic
Railroad forced his line to reduce the
rates This Is exactly the point that we
made. a ruInous and cut-throat COM
petition between the roads forces the price
down to such figures as absolutely tempt
the negroes TO leave the State. 1t makes
very little difference to the public which
hne commenced the cutting" business
The mere fact that this negro pledger can
get transportation for 800 negroes from
Atlanta to Vicksburg for so a head,
and free ticket to one in every twenty
hive is all that the public have to deal
with. This Is the one thing that it must
dePlore and condemn. We still believe
that a convention of State magnates OF
these three routes, and the abolition OF
Their low ernigrant rates, would stop the
Wholesale exodus of our negro population.
The negro is remarkable for his love Of
locality. He generally prefers to stay
around the old farm-place, where he wa:
raised, an will do so unless all the con
dltlons tempt him to leave it. The single
obstacle full, high-priced railroad fare
would Sc tile the matter with two-third;

We have heard it more that once re-
marked, that the people of our State
Capital, regardless of party predictions,
are not opposed to the highest possible
rate of taxation, both State and county
and for the reason that all the State and
county money raised by taxation is kept
and disbursed there, and ultimately finds
its way, in amounts either large or small,
into the pockets of almost every citizen of
the capital city. The fact that very
popular and determined movement has
been made there in behalf of the tax
payers of the county and State, shows
very conclusively that the charge is with
out foundation in fact, and that there are
many gentlemen in Jackson just as heart
lily opposed to excessive taxation and a
wasteful expenditure of the public treasure
as in other parts of the county and State.

House to near tine Depot; the night be-
ing very dark they struck the stone pile
as they turned the corner near the De-
pot. In hopes of finding smoother
road bed they pulled over next to the
Belmont House, and in c.ossing the
sewer over the street at the corner, the
boards over it gave way and let the
horse in, and the animal in its effort to
extricate itself overturned the buggy
and spilled out its occupants, breaking
the Judges leg and bruising his face
badly. Judge Carroll escaped unhurt.
As soon as assistance came to their re-
lief, Judge Cowen was removed to the
Belmont House, and Drs. Cook and
Fisher dressed and set the limb, and On
Sunday he was brought to his home in
this place, and placed under the medi-
cal care of Drs. West. He is imprcv-
ing as rapidly as can be expected.
