judgment Rendered Against Rev. ms
 HI. HOughtOn i'm the Horse Cases
 In the Court of Common Pleas yesterday afternoon in the case of Rev. M H. Tough ton vs. Mrs. Theodora M. Hooker non-suit was ordered by Judge Studley. The case was originally brought to recover the price of horse which the plaintiff claimed he had sold to the defendant Mrs. Hooker, who Is wel known the proprietress of the riding academy, claimed that she had simply taken the horse on trial, had found it worthless for her business and then returned it. The case was tried before Justice Ullman, who decided for the plaintiff. The defendant then ap- pealed to the Court of Common Pleas, and as MT. Houghton had twice failed to comply with an order requiring him to give bonds for prosecution, judgment for $16.e0 costs was rendered against him. Cleaveland and Gallagher were Mrs- Rockers counsel.

Al ling vs. Elizabeth M.

HOW AMERICA Is PEOPLED.

Every minute of the day 70 new
human beings are brought into exis.
tence and 81 are removed, says wri-
ter. The population of the world is
steadily increasing at the rate of
per minute, of 4, 1920 per day, more
than 100000 each year. Just
think of the yearly population of man
being equal to the entire population
of the State of Iowa. Where do they
all go? The home of the human
race, as far as we are able to learn,
was in Asia, and from there all ma
tons have come. The rapid increase
of population in the United States
shows the tendency of the race to
scatter and seek new fields. Had
the revolutionary fathers forbidden
immigration our great West would
still be wide waste. The natural
increase ofpopulation would not have
been sufficient to have populated the
country as far west as the Allegha-
MES. However, instead of discour-
aging immigration they offered in
ducements to farmers and mechanics.
There were but few attractions for
professional gentlemen, or those who
were above working The result was
that an industrious as we'll prolific
class of citizens was secured, and the
admixture of blood has produced a
new race, which is as distinctly Amer
lean as the Irish is Celtic.
One of the characteristic of the
race is its spirit of independence.
This trait is not only shown in politi-
cal affairs, but in everything. The
only restraint to personal liberty is
when it's exercise would be serious
injury to others. The feature of our
government is constantly attracting
those from all other countries who
love liberty and independence. This
class is universally strong physically,
and possesses better brain and more
of the spirit of progress than those
who remain behind to live and die
serfs, vassals, or subjects of a govern
ment for which they have no love.
There is room in this country for
double the present population, and
still not be crowded like European
States. Some imagine that at the
present rate of immigration it will
only take another decade or so to fill
the country chock full, and already
some of our domestic economists are
getting scared.

MEMORIALS TO THE DEAD.


Civilization in its onward march
while it levels the forest and subdues
the wilds of nature, spares not even
the abode of the dead. The grave
yard of the past generations is over
run by the plowshare of the present,
and the very places of its numberless
graves are forgotten. The cemetery
laid out few years ago beside a
flourishing village is now in the heart
of a great and growing town, and il
yields its place to the crOwding
homes of the living. A few graves
are marked by monumental stones
and of these, there the ashes are
carefully taken away and deposited
In some new resting place, but of the
many undistinguished, no note can
be taken. The survivor may seek in
vain for the loved remains, that must
be left to mingle with common earth
until the end of all things.
How important it is, therefore, that
the graves of our dead should be per-
manently marked; yet how much
neglected, the many nameless graves
in every churchyard bears us wit
ness. 1t is not always from want of
respect for the dead, or from want of
means or inclination. 1t is procras-
tination-delay. Let those who have
been heretofore remiss, hasten to
atone for their neglect. We owe it
alike to the dead and the living;
something proportionate to our means,
which will remain to point out the
grave to coming generations, and
save the spot from Dissertation. How
many of the illustrious dead names,
that are familiar to us as household
names, sleep in nameless graves
their last resting place unknown
because their surviving friends neg
lected to mark the place with a grave
stone until too late,

GEORGIA LEGISLATuRE.

One of the most important bills in
troduced on the reconvening of the
Legislature, was by Hon. A. S. Clay
of Cobb, providing for release o.
the Western & Atlantic Railroad al
the expiration of the present lease
The bill gave the governor power tc
effect the lease at not less than $4O,-
900 per month, to take effect at the
expiration of the present lease. The
bill is quite lengthy, and prescribes
the details by which the lease shall
be made. 1t was referred to the
finance committee.
Another general bill of considera-
BILE Importance was one introduced
by Mr.. Calvin of Richmond, to re-
quire the payment of the full amount
of insurance when property is de-
stroyed by fire. The present custom
is to pay only the actual loss, even
when property is totally destroyed,
although it might have been insured
for more than its actual value. The
bill provides that an insurance com
pany shall assess property once a
year, and insure it on that basis, and
not accept premiums on one basis
and then settle on another.
Mr.. Calvin introduced another gen
erall bill of considerable Importance.
1t was a bill to amend the constitu-
ton of the state in reference to home
steads, and provided that the present
section allowing $1,000 should be
abolished and another section be sub
stituted. Under his bill the exemp-
ton of property would be that set
forth in paragraphs 2040, 2049 of the
code inclusive, and the amendatory
acts thereto. Mr.. Calvin seeks to re-
duce the exemption allowed on the
dwellings and other improvements to
$500. Under the present law a-man
can exempt 81 600 of either personal
or real property.
Mr.. Herndon, of Whitfield, intro
duced bills, one Of them being bill
to change the constitution of the
state so as to make the governors
term of Office four years instead of
two and to make him ineligible to re-
election, and to fix the salary at five
thousand dollars.
