The Appeal reports 4204 convicts in the Georgia state penitentiary and covers a mix of local items. Notes on marriages, deaths, public figures, and political charges include the Albany incident, Lincoln homestead, and a broad sweep of social and political commentary.
Reports describe long standing joint revision work on the Bible in London and New York. Changes expected to be conservative, not exceeding five percent, with textual divisions and cross references refined. The process involves cross edits, conference committees, and occasional prefatory notes detailing disagreements.
A Georgia paper defends Gov Colquitt against a wave of charges. It questions the motives of critics and argues journalists must oppose baseless allegations. The piece reviews indictments about ex-Treasurer Jones and related contracts, insisting the governor acted prudently.
The column extols Governor Colquitt's administration, praising honesty and economy, claiming debt extinguished, over 200000 collected from old claims, improved credit with New York banks, and reduced state costs including lunatic asylum savings. It lauds vast agricultural relief, widespread peace, and compares Georgia favorably with other states, urging voters to support the administration despite factional critics.
