THAT'S THE CRY.

Oh! for dog law all over the
State, and especially in Macon. II
the Georgia Legislature could screw
it's courage up to this sticking point,
what sweet boon it would be, and
how we would all rise up and call it
blessed.-Mac0n Telegraph d Mes
Seager.
We have repeatedly urged our
representatives to take some meas
ures to enact law taxing dogs.
They recognized the Importance OF
such a law, but thought it difiicoit
and impraclicable. But Tennessee
has shown the absurdity Of the ar
gumept by putting dog law iato
practical execution, working results
that will be Of incalculable benefit to
the prosperity Of the industrial and
stock raising pursuits, as well as
thinning out an intolerable nuisance,
and putting over 100000 revenue
into the State treasury. Will our
next Legislature have the intelli-
gence and manhood to respond to
the popular cry in Georgia for the
same kind of a law, or will they re-
sort to their favorite pastime oil

persons privileges to peddle ginger

mand legislation that will protect

A VANQUIsHED EAGLE.-A gem
teman of this city gives an interest.
ing account Of recent attempt by
an eagle to carry eff cat, which
occurred at farm on the bay shore
of Kent county, Maryland. A
young, medium sized cat was tread
ing leisurely along in potato patch,
when a large, full grown eagle
swooped down and catching her in
its talons bore her up. Pussy wrig.
gled and mewed piteously for some
moments, but suddenly seeming im>
bued with courage, she began de-
termined effort to obtain a hold on
her oppressor. So great we're her
struggles that the eagle was unable
to fly longer, and kept up contin-
uous Topping with its wings to keep
After much exertion the cat
s0cceeded in her object, and obtains
ed firm grasp with her claws on
the breast of the eagle, which made
every possible endeavor to free itself
in vain. 1t tapped its wings, shook
its body and appeared to heartily re-
greet having meddled with pussy in
her peaceful ways, Finally, as if in
despair and exhaustion, it spread its
broad wings and fell slowly to the
bay, over which the struggle had
been going on. Immediately upon
touching the water the cat loosed
her hold and swan boldly ashore,
while the eagle, upon being feed of
its troublesome burthen, shot upward
and sped rapidly away.

grants of money, credit or lands to
any scheme the abolition Of nation
al banks, and the issue of legal ten

the establishment of State banks OF
discount and deposit, under State
regulations no currency but legal
tenders a complete separation OF

the result will denote his passing
