There are indications Of an epidemic oil
cOmmon-sense in the Fusion Senate, s0-cailoN
while in the House there are good many
voices still for war. A motion in ;he Sen
ate to proceed to business was not passed.
One wise member said, LET us go INTO
E" the State House Legislature or go home"
Another urged that questions be submitted to
the Supreme Court, and its decision be ac-
cepted Another said he did not believe
that either Legislature WAS legally organized !;
he wanted a compromise, and thought minor
ty in each Legislature favored 1t. Another
has q lesou,iO n looking toward union with the
Republican Senate. Meanwhile in the Fusion
House there was wild talk about IAN as
"sumcd Governor and military usulper"
with slrcats that the Fusion State Govern
ment would actually withdraw from
Augusta. The sidewalk Legislature, the
Governor who has not so much az
an official chair to sit in. and the Executive
Departments who are without a local habita-
lion. or Il bIll-head even, would all take them
selves away This is a dreadful threat, and
it will scare Augusta most awfully.

The mystery Of the merlngue pie which poisoned
Mr. George Wheeler in this city on the 24th OF last
November has been cleared mp, and is also greater
than ever. The fatal abomination furnished by the
baker turns out to have been dyed yellow, some
aniline of that color having been detected in the
pie and also in the stomach OF the deceased.

neighbOrhood Of West FOrty-third-st, has tempo

leon believed that great statesmanship consisted
LARGELY in being able TO lie" The Louisville Courier
journal SAYS: "Denls Kearney is a Republican AMI

fraud. violence and blackRuardlsm" The genial
editor Of The Corey-Joaraal is wont 10 tell story
at his own expense. of how he as aid to Con-
federate commander general undertook to run
one Of the battles around Chattanooga on the
strength of what he had read about Napo-

One of the curiosities of recent crime is the
hot indignation of the condemned wlfe-mur-
derer, Reinhardt, about charge that he had
stolen some jewelry from fellow prisoner.
The average man, after being found
guilty of the first crime, would hardly
be moved by an accusation involving the
second But it is not always easy to say just
where the human conscience begins. Mr.. Rein
hardfs homcidal cheerfulness gave way when
he was accused of disappointing these
trnmpery trinkets.

The Osher side.

The Board Of County Commissioners
state that the reason they have net sp-
portioned moneys left in the county
treasury by Mr.. Carrick Is that In the
Hrst place the moneys are already sp.
portioned in the ratio Of the whole
amount left In the treasury at that time
70 the whole amount which should have
been In the treasury. In other words.
the amount In each fund 10 lssssned In
proportion as the whole amount In the
treasury has been lesssned BY the dc.
fslcatiou. Again. they say they have NO
power to spportion funds. It IL no part
OF their legally constituted or appointed
duties, and they are creatures Of the laws
and the statutes. Funds In the county
treasury are always ''in bulk" and are
only aggregated into special funds on
the county books. The moneys Of the
several funds are never kept In separate
drawers, hence. as the money taken
from the treasury by Mr.. Carrick was
taken from the coin In bulk. each fund
must bear its proportionats diminution
until such time a. the bondsmsu Of the
dsiauldug Treasurer make good the de-
6ciency.
