SPIKINCA A CHALMERS GUN.


Gen. Chalmers and his followers
have been and are yet attempting
to make capital against Col. Man
ming on the Oxford courthouse bill,
claiming that the absence of the
usual formal appropriating clause
would defeatthe purposs;of the bill.
Let Gen. Chalmers, his organs and
followers, digest the following let
ter from Senator George on this
question, written in response to an
inquiry Of MIR. Baker:
JACKSON, Mss, Sept. X, 1892.
Hon. A. J. BAKER. Dear Sir: In
answer to your letter, | have to say
that | have carefully considered
the act passed at the last session Of
Congress in relation 10 the erection
of public building at Oxford, as
the same appears in the Congress
sional Record OF July 4th, of the
current year, and can see no
ground for the position, that its
provisions are insufficient as an ap-
preparation Of $4,000 from the U.
S. Treasury. No technical or form
al words are required to make an
appropriation. 1t is sufficient if
the act Indicates the will and pur-
pose of Congress that the Secretary
Of the Treasury shall use the money
in a particular way. An appropri-
alton is nothing more than the con-
sent of Congress that the money
should be expended in the manner
named in the act. Here the Sec'y
Of the Treasury is authorized,
and not only that, but directed to
purchase a site and erect a building,
with a limitation that the cost
shall NO: exceed $4,000. As nei-
Their the site could be purchased,
nor the building could be- erected
without money, it is plain that
Congress intended that money
should be used; and certainly if
money was to be used, the money
must come from the Treasury, as
Congress has no pow r to direct
the Secretary to use his own pri-
vate money, or the money of any
one else. The act also speaks of
the money as appropriated" in the
past tense, something already zap
propriated" and not to be "appro-
priated" thereafter. have not the
slightest doubt that a valid and
sufficient appropriation of 900 is
made by The act. And in this view
Gen. Wharton, Judge Wiley P.
Harris and Chief Justice Campbell
all concur. | am astonished to
learn from your letter that any off.
Ger of the Treasury has taken any
other view Of it; and am disposed
to think your information is incor.
rect. l am satisfied there is no
good ground tor such an opinion,
and if it has been promulgated, that
| should tbinkit resulted from that
confusion of ideas, unfortunately
so common, when the interests of
party + involved.
Very truly, your friend,
j. Z. GEORGE.

The Compr.

Galveston Print.
For several mornings past per.
sons who have been out early, OF
late, as the case may be, have wit
messed the comet which was first
discovered by a Colorado astrono.
mer, and subsequently by star gaz,
ers in various sections of the coun.
try. Those OF Il Island City PEG.
pie who have observed this comet
say it is very bright, plainly visible
to the naked eye shortly before
sunrise and worth the trouble OF
rising early to see. This strange
visitor has attracted a good deal OF
attention since it has been found
to be identical with the great com.
ct Of 1843, and also with the comet
of 1880, which was only observed
in South America, Cape of Good.
Hope and Australia. After its last
visit in the year 1882. Professor
Proctor wrote one of his peculiar
and instructive articles upon it's
past and probable future history,
in which he argued that it was only
a question OF few years when
the comets orbit would te so con-
tracted by the SUMS attraction that
the destruction Of the comet would
be inevitable; in other words, that
the comet would tsllinto the sun.
The reappearance Of this comet at.
ter 50 short an absence gives 1t
great INTEREST,"

The Atlanta Constitution makes
a keen point in the following para
graph the application OF which is of
force In more states than Georgia:
There is enough hay standing in
southern and southwestern Georgia
to feed the stock of the State three
years and yet the people are not
cutting it. The disease of cotton
picking is upon them. The hay is
more valuable than the cotton"
1t should be a matter of astonish-
ment, but it does not seem to be,
that southern farmers rarely cut
and save hay for winter use. They
seem to prefer buying it for cash
from the d~amyankee. It's put up

A Now Church at Beth ell.

On Saturday afternoon last, a meeting
was held of the congregation Of Hethel
church. presided over by Rev. James Muir
ray, pastor, with W. D. Hogshead
Esq, clerk. After an Interchange of
views it was decided to take down the
present church ediice and put up anew
one. The present church was erected in
1921 at cost of 81 800. Mr.. David Black
wood, one of the present elders Of the, con-
gregation, recollects when it was built,
and also that the contractor for the Inason-
~ work scooped out u place in the corner
stone and put therein bottle of whIskey
and Stanton newspaper.
The building was most substantial
one, and che material fit to bs used again is
50 much, that the cost of the new building
will not be more than $4,000. The proper
authorities of tho congregation were au.
thorized BY the meeting to contract for its
erection in the months of August and
September.
