Senator Gordon, of Georgia, has written a letter to the New York. ' Triblne, in which be draws a very gtatifyivg picture of the conditio.y of the Southern States. He says that the peuple of the South are mis. , They do not want to Th¢ peounderstood, oppress the folored race. ple of Georgia are surprised that the} i ~eordition of South Carolina is* not the same as their own State, when ouly the Savapnah. river ‘divides them. Heo ‘further says. that ‘the credit of South Carvliva is, ruined, her taxes are confiscatory, her iv"stitutions of learning a~ by-word and a.reproath, her population in never }ceasing broil; while the bonds of Georgia are neurly on-a par with ' United States securities, her taxes scarcely’ upprecisble; ber colored institutions of learning. supported _ by State contribations aud in a mos: floutishing condition, with absuiuce peace, harmony and good will between the ruces reigning throughout her border, -eonferred upon the white man by the State of Georgia, which is not equally secured to the black mun. The aunual appropriation made to the colored college in the oity of Atlanta; the 50,000 colored children in our public schocls, while the race pays but one-fifth of the taxation.” We hope Serator Gordon's pictare is a true one, but the evidence is so ‘conflicting that we do not know just what to believe about the” condition of affairs down thera. At all events . Georgia is not a fair specimen of.the others of that range of Southern States. Georgia was the most.fortanate of tlre rebellious States. Her people sustained bat comparatively small loss by military operations; nine-tenths of her territory was not seen by invading armies. Since the war, millions of northern capital have been invested in productive industries there. The popalation ‘of the State is three-fifths white, Besides, Georgia was the only Southern State that made much progress in the establishment of free schools before the war. Her people are as differentin nature and dix position from those of South CuroGeorgia is deserving of credit for the advance-~ nient it has made, and for its good Behavior since the war,and we for onewould not wish to pluck one jaurelfrom her good name, yet we @an not help comparing what Senator Gerdon suys about schools aud the rights-of the colored men there, with what State Superintendent of Schools Orr said_in 1875. Tue ‘school law of the State provides for a three months term euch year, but in his last report the Superintendent complalns that ‘‘we are not able to pay the entire expenses of the three months," and grambles because the . Legislatare wij not provide more means. Thé Superintendent says itis dificult to obtain teachers in the white public schools and almost Jipossible to get them for the.color“ed schools. The reason they can’t get teachers for the colored schools _ tn Mississippi, we suppose is just the reason t can nor be obtained in Georgia. That reason is, that ‘‘ié is considered by us almost a crime fora Southern man to stand in the relation of teacher to the Negro man.’’ . So says School Iuspector Rev. C. B. Galloway, of the Methodist Chureb South, and Prof, H. 8S. Edwards; both of Jackson, Mississippi. Supérintentteat Orr, in his annual report in 1875 said: “It is ofteu objected to our school system that it was forced upon us—that it was not voluitarily adopted by the pedple of Georgia.’”’ ‘‘This statement is‘true so far as it has application to the incorporation of the system into the fundamental law.’’ He said “every Constitution we have had till the present one, made it the duty of tho General Assembly to encourage education, while tbe present Constitu' tion made it the duty of the Genera! Assembly to establish a system of schools. (We suppose that was brought ‘about by Carpet Baggegs. ) The Superintendent .furtber say-: “The provisions of our Stite and Federal Constitatious whieb emanci pate the colored people and mak. them citizens will never be changed Our people have bevome universally ‘reconciled to this change. To “thir, a a remark Ido tiot know of a single ex‘eption. . We all know, however, that be iidiscriminate bestowal tpon j them of the elective franchise ipttoloced nll the corruption, peculation 1nd maladministration which bas earsed the Southern States for the “treater portion of the last ten years. lo the bestowal of this right most of the wiser portion of oui white population did and still do‘object.”’ ‘‘GQuidauce on the part of tbe superior race, and confidence ,and a .kindly following on the part of the inferior, are the ovly conditions that van make a common occupancy of the same teritory desirable, or even A Mysrerrqug “AMPUTATION. — Brook Smith, formerly of this city, now living in Brownwood, was the vietim of a singular accident last Monday morning. He-was walking aloug the principal street of ‘the town, when suddenly feeling a stinging sensation in his right band, he raised it-from. his side; avd fouud the forefinger gone. , Hé, of course, was surprised “and horrified; ~his hand was bleeding badly; the dismembered:finger lay on the ground at some distance from hiui; be had not beard the report of a gtip, and naturally was very much et a luss to account for the mishap. Several “If they can be held in a subordi= nate relation till the slow processes of edncatiun and otber agencies of moral elevation have bad timeo.do their work on them, oll may’ be’'well with us, (Pages 92, 93 aud 94. AnMr. Orr mast haveechoed the sentiments of a majority of the people of.the State, because they résouibated and re-elected him to the same position, dnd we presume he holds the same opinions still. This dues not make things anpear quite as lively asSen.tor Gordon reports, bui we wish thatall the Southern Stites were-in as peaceabl ‘and prosperous There is net oue right; *# Condition even as Georgin, and that no more force, frand or. intimidation existed elsewhere -than can be “found within ber borders The Louisiana "Vote. .

The Verdict, The Corover’s jury impanneled to ascertain the facts ip relation to the dire disaster which occurred at Moore's Opera House in Sacramento, on Saturday night last; rendered a verdict to the effect, that they found that 8. W.Perry, Jobn Ca'lahan, Michael Tierney, J. Frank Mvers, Wim. H. Hassey, Wm. J. Forster and T. C. Woodle, were all kitted by the fall of the floor in the building knowa ‘as Moore's Opera House. That while the building was generally known to be unsafe, Yet it did not appear that the present ‘proprietors knew of the fact, and therefore were not considered to be to blame for the catastrophe. The jury however, return a snpplemental report, recommending the City Trustees to appoint a Public Inspector of buildings, Whose duty it shall be to discover what buildings are, and what are not safe, —— >_< 2s — A New Steamer for Lake Tahoe, The latest addition to the steam fleeton Lake Tahoe, says the Sav Francisco Chronicle, is the iron of nearly $16,000.

Her length over all is 80 feet; on water-line 75 feet; beam at waterline 944 feet. Her engines consist of two 10-inch cylinders with 12-inch stroke.

It seems to he claimed by the appe'lant that the witness may be asked if he bas been convicted of felony, but no misdemeanor. Judge Wright has the case under advisement. thunderbolt did not strike that class whose only idea of cross-examination appears to be the discriminate. applivation of two questions: ‘You are lying ain’t you?” ‘‘Have you ever been arrested ?’’— Alta. 5 Progressing. : The Stock Exchange of Thursday rays: : . “The investiga ion of the Findace Cowmittee of the Board’of Supervisors into the alleged election aud registration frauds is‘progres=log in a manner gratifying to the County Clerk and Assessur, but very dishearting to-the Committee.
