GEORGIA is fortunate State. She
is on the point Of reducing the interest
Oh large portion Of her debt to four
per cent. The new Garrard bonds,
socalled from the originator, now
being issued, arc entirely novel. They
arc issued in denominations Of five
dollars, if we arc not mistaken, and
arc about the size of the ordinary
grccnback Or bank note. These two
facts combined arc expected to cause
the bonds to circulate freely in trade,
thus causing practical imitation of
tho currency without violating the
constitution. 1t was at first feared
that holders of the retired bonds
would not accept the Garrard issue at
reduced rates Of interest, but State

Some months ago. an invalid, living near a
church In Philadelphia, appealed to the courts
20 protect him from the church bells, the ring
Ing Of which, he said, worried and annoyed
him greatly. The court hearkened to his de-
mand and the church bells we're enioined from
ringing, except on certain occasions and at
certain times Of the day. A similar suit was
inangurated In st. Louis, few weeks since,
but did not terminate quite SO successfully.
A canvass OF the neighborhood OF the church
showed that only six persons were opposed
TO the ringing, while an immense majority
declared that they liked the chimes, that the
bells were q perfect delight to them, with
which they had no desire to part. Upon
which evidence the anti-bell man was ruled
out OF court.

when they are taken sick. die; that children
are more liable than adults; males than fe-
males, and whites than blacks. Thus the
death rate Of foreigners was 10 per cent
double that Of natives. Three men were taken
sick to every woman, and the death rate
among them 70 per cent greater than among
the women. The children, however, suffered
even worse than the male adults, for while
only one adult In twelve sick died one out of
every nine sick children fell victims TO the
epidemic. The most remarkable difference
however, is exhibited In respect to color The
percentage of whites taken sick was IL. while
OF negroes 1t was only 3 per cent; the death
rate Of the white population was Q, of the ne
groes 2-5 per cent. The negroes appear also
to have been attacked by the disease later on
than the whites. Indeed, there was not
death among them from yellow fever In either
the months OF July or August, when the cpl
demic was already raging among the whites,
and In November, also, they ceased to die. 1t
was only during the height OF the epidemic
that they were affected by 1t.

The whipping post for the punishment Of
minor crimes Is again coming into popular
favor. A few years ago tide OF sentimental

Grated this old English mode Of furnishing
criminals. The workings OF the penitentiary
system, which In a great measure replaced
the whipping post, has not proved al salts
factory as its advocates promised, and public
attention is again being directed to Hogging
as preventive OF crime. Virginia has re-
established public whlppngs for certain
Grimes, and the measure is being popuIarized
elsewhere. In the last Legislature OF Ken
lucky 1t was defeated by one vote and at the
present session OF the North Carolina Legis-
iature 1t failed by only three votes Not
many years ago the whipping post was abol-
ished In both these States by an immense

A very important suit was decided In the
United States Circuit Court yesterday. The
suit involved $4,000 acres Of land In the par
ish OF Sabine, In this State, and was decided
In favor OF Col William II. Jack and against
VIII Steven and L. e. Norton, assignees. The
court decided that there was no cause OF
action on the part Of the assignees, and thus
the decision Is final, and there Is no appeal
A large number or persons of small
means, who are occupants OF these lands,
are deeply interested In this suit, and
will be rejoiced to learn that the decision
has been made In favor Of their friend and
neighbor. Right here we may remark that
the gentleman who owns this landed property
and who Is one Of the first lawyers In North
Louisiana and most esteemed citizens OF
Natchitoches parish, Is one Of the parties in
dicted by the stocked United States grand
jury as a bulldozer and In now In this city I'M
der bond and awaiting trial. The idea that
he and others like him, deeply interested In
the material welfare of the State. were en-
gagged In conspiracies calculated to destroy
their own property and ruin their own inter-
ests is simply preposterous. They have been
indicted for the crime OF being Democrats
and for voting and working for the Democ-
ratio ticket.

That England protects her subjects is be-
yond dispute. She went to war with Abys-
sinia few years ago because the King of
that country had imprisoned some English
men. 1t ID possible. however. TINT England
may 60 too far In this protection, and this
she would seem to have done with the Zulus.
One OF the main causes Of the present Zulu
war was an outrage committed on two Eng
lishmen last September. They were arrested
by party of armed Zulus for being on land
which the latter claimed belonged to King
Cetawayo, and detained by them as prisoners
for an hour For this alleged outrage hum
bred cattle were demanded from the Zulu
King. The latter refused to grant this de-
mand, and after long negotiations, the result
was war. To vindicate the liberty OF two men
detained prisoners for an hour Great Britain
has just suffered the loss OF several hundred
OF her troops.

STATE BANKS.

An esteemed correspondent, under the sig
nature OF Planter" presents some interest
ing views on our State banks. We do moi
think that the constitutional convention car
remedy the evils complained Of. The trouble
is In the vicious Federal legislation. No wiser
or safer banking system has ever been de.
vised than that under which the State banks
Of Louisiana were created: but Congress de-
stroyed their power for good by levying an
illegal and prohibtory tax Of 10 per cent on
their circulation. Under the law OF their Gre
alton the State banks aided the planters and
real estate owners generally, and made New
Orleans the great money centre Of the South
west. Under the national bank system, set
up by Congress, the banks are prohibited
from lending money on real estate, and thus
tho property, which In the agricultural
regions Of the South constitutes the basis of
our wealth and prosperity, Is Disseminated
against and rendered almost valueless. More
than year ago the DEMOCRAT demanded the
repeal Of the 10 per cent tax on State bank cir
culation, as the only means OF countera ting
the disastrous effects Of resumption and pre-
venting New York from becoming the seat of
to which every other city and section Of the
Union would pay ruinous tribute
Senator Butler, OF South Carolina, took
hold Of the subject at the last session Of Con-
gress and introduced bill In the Senate for
the repeal OF the tax on State bank circula-
ton, and Senators Eustis and Hill were warm
supporters Of the measure. The Georgia
papers, and journals throughout the Union.
joined us In favor OF this measure, and 1t was
believed that In the present session Of Con-
gress the Senators referred to would press
the bill. It seems, however, that IL has been
lost sight OF for the present.
The convention can do nothing on this sub
ject. But Congress, which imposed the pro-
hibltory tax on the State banks, should repeal
It. and vigorous movement should be made
by all classes who have an interest In the
agricultural or other material interests of the
Southwest to force this issue upon Congress.
