Some time ago the Northeastern Railrosd, of this State, applicd to Gor. Colquitt , to put the State's Indorsement on 263,000 bonds of their bonds. Thete was some doubt as to whether the Btate was bound to indorse, ana the Governor hesitsted. 1t was then deter- mined to test the matter In the courts, Benator Hill was emologed on a contingent fee of 87,000 to arguo the case. The bonds were fuatly indorsed, sand Mr..Hill sppiled for bis fee. He was informed that the Company wi not able to pay, snd had aiready pald out to a clerk in the Treasury Department as & fes in the case, This clerk held that he had earned his fee by collocting the testimogy and aptntons of lawyers and legislators as to the intention of the State to indorse.

Mr. Murphey denfes this, say- fog be simply wished to denounce thé Senator publicly for baving slandered bim. It was rumored that Mr. Murphey, in makiog bis con- tract for $8,000, had lcd the contractors to ba.
