THE Philadelphis Press says
"The editor of the Okolons Miss
States, who so devoutly thanked God
that the Confederates had captured
the capitol, is accused of having
stolen from $4,000 to $4,000 of the
yellow fever funds sent from the
North, and to have spent it in gam
bling" The Courier. Journal thinks
if this is true it furnishes an addition
al reason why the Southern people
should be extremely cautious in their
dealings with strangers, especially
scalawags and carpet-baggers like
this fellow from Ohio who is running
the Okoluua States, for a considera-
ton, as a campaign document for
bloody shirt organs in the North,
like the Philadelphia Press.

A SENSIBLE GRAND JURY.

1t was peculiarly gratifying, there-
fore, to us to read 10 the Constitution
of few days since of the vigorous
and able presentments made by a
Cobb county grand jury, of which
p. w. Alexander was foreman
This jury, composed of unusually
capable gentlemen, after discussing
the affairs of the county, made some
suggestions of a general public inter-
est that must have a fine effect.
They advocated the putting of tax
on pistols, Of putting tax on dogs,
of putting a tax on liquor drinking
by some such method as the Aoffett
register. We do not believe there
could be found twenty counties in
the State in which the grand juries
would not favor each one Of these
propositions, and yet probably not a
dozen will make any presentment at
all upon either of the subjects men,
toned.
If the grand juries will only speak
out boldly and intelligently, they can
do more to influence public opinion
than any other bodies that can be
devised. They are less unwieldly
than the legislatures, less formal than
the courts, more formal than the
press. more potential than popular
speeches, less restricted than the pull
pit We hope to see them, there
fore, arise to the full measure Of
their usefulness. Let them discuss
without prejudice all non,political
questions, and present without fear
all errors or omissions in our socia
government system. Col. Alexan
der, as foreman of the Cobb county
jury, has set an example that will
do Georgia an immense deal of good
if it is only followed, as it should be.
