The HOMESTEAD LAW.

The Harswell Sun rises up to dis
cuss The homestead laws of Geor-
gia. 1t declares that through "itG
prov siops all confidence between
seller and buyer is nigh we'll des
troyed. The homestead law is con
trary to the spirit of The constitution.
As an incident to tho rights Of pri,
vate property tho obligations of con-
tracts add agreemems, both public
and private, are made sacred, and
required to be held inviolate.-
Whether the homestead law is un-
constitutional or not, it certainly is
not founded upon the principles of
Justice. The creditor should not
be he'd responsible tor the extrava,
gance or misfortune of the debtor.
If the collecting laws of Georgia
were what they ought to be a poor
mau's credit would be as good as
rich mans. The way it is now the
poor man stands no chance to recov,
err from bad luck or misfortune, and
he can have no Involvement TO build
up after once getting "under the
weather." Before the war a poor
msu's note passed in trade almost
like a bank bill. Not long since we
knew man TO deed his land with
the privilege of redeemiOg it for
the pitifai sum of seven dollars
If collection laws had been good, he
could have borrowed The seven dol
lars from neigbor by giving bis
due bill. lfthere ever was a real
necessity, that time has passed, aud
the pc nicious law should be abro,
gated"

PUNISHMENT FOR AN ATTEMPT
AT SUICIDE.

The New York Sun of Tuesday
says: The frat conviction for at
tempt to commit suicide was obtain.
ed yesterday 10 the General sessions
Before the new penal code went into
effect, on the first month, there was
no punishment for this thing. But
now it is punishable with imprison-
ment for one year and fine of one
thousand dollars-rsther severe
punishment. The first two efforts
to inhict the punishment resulted
surprisingly. In one Gaze, young
woman attempted to commit suicide
with matches stepped 10 water
But as the lover opportuueIy appear
ed 10 court and offered marriage, the
jury acquitted her, and Judge Gid
orsleeve made a nuptual knot tight
and strong. In the other case the
state of affairs gas reversed. 1t
was fellow who, having been cast
off by bis sweetheart tried to take
bis life by iphaiug fumes of char
coal. The jury acquitted him, be
cause one of the jurors afterwards
said, be had had trouble enough.
But The woman, Kate Armstrong,
who was arraisned yesterday upon
the charge of having tried to hang
herself in a police station cell, did
not put her fate 10 The hands Of a
jury. She pleaded guilty, and now
awaits sentence, Some persons
have fancied that there have been
fewer suicides since The anti-suicide
clause of the code went into effect
But there has been no official show
Jog in this matter, though one would
undoubtedly be very Interesting.

DBFYING PUBLIC OPINION

Mrs. Laugtry's episode with the
young fellow Gebhard has been u
curious indiscretion. It has evident
ly not been anything more than mu'
,ual friendly prepossession, without
actual wrong, yet stimulated by gos
sip and opposition. Mrs. Laugtry
trusting in her conscious Innocence,
and with the spelling she has ro'
ceived as a social favorite, has in
dulged in q resoIute defiance Of pub
lie opinion, and an obstinate Gisye.
gard OF dictstion by custom and
popular sentiment as to her friendly
associations. She has made a seri
ons mistake. No woman is strong
enough to defy opinion or violate
social custom. Whenever gossip
notes The friendship of a married
woman with any gentleman, it is
time for the association to stop. A
wife owes it TO her own reput alton
to give prompt heed 10 The very sug'
gestion Of periIous attention. No
mater how unjust it may be, she
cannot afford to triAe with public
censure. The Gebhard scandal will
follow Mrs Lapgiry all her life. 1t
has seriously damaged her fair fame
10 this country. 1t has lessened
sympathy with her in her struggle
10 ret ieve her fortunes. 1t has ex~
posed her to storm of auimRdver,
sion, ridicuIe and misconstruction
that a prudent regard for her own
interests apd good name would
have made her avoid. The fair
Jersey Lily will take back to Eng
land goodly share of American
money, bat she wifi also cary the
recollection of a warm shower of
rasping gossip.

EATING ONE ANOTHER.

There are sew eral thousand objects
taxed by the tariff. Each industry
and each branch Of industry is in
the enjoyment of some tax levied
by its especial protection at the pub
lie expense, and each in like manner
is taxed by COUNTLESS other interests
for their protection at the expense
of everybody else. Noticing this
wrctched feature of protection,
the Chicago, Illinois, Tribune re
marks: "The manufacturer of any
perfected or finished production has
tax levied for its protection,
equal, say, to 30 or 60 per cent. ;
but he is himself taxed on every in
gredient or material used by him in
bis production about as much, and
this Tax is collected from him fol
the protection OF others, which
might be called mutual robbery
The tax collected BY him for biz
protection is in turn collected frou
him piecemeal as protection for al
the others who furnish him with raw
material. and thus each manufactu
rer lie engaged in eating the other
How to preserve this wild system
of reciprocal taxation is the problem
which Congress is utterly unable t.
solve"
