■r THE DAILY SUN. SENOIA. MIm BbIUc SIchlMk. “ Senoia! Senoia! Where did that name cume from? I never heard it before.” Such are frequently the ex preaalons of strangers when first they near the name of our thrifty new town. . Senoia is an Indian name, and was given to our place by Col. Wm. 0. Barnes at the suggestion of Mr. John Williams. Mr. Williams has long re sided in Coweta, and previously in Fayette county. He was personally acquainted with an Indian by the name of Senoia, who resided in Cow eta county, in the 4th District, near Lodi; A stream in that district now Lbe^rs his name. Senoia, when Mr. IWilliams knew him, was about forty |ears old, tall, slender and straight us "reed. He had an Indian eye, such i give lie red man—black, with a wild 'pe- i the Great Father has given only to ick, witf fculiar expression, Senoia was a philanthropist, who loved his rid brother, lus dusky daughters and their wild forest homes, and could find no hatred in his heart for the palc-fsced race who 1 came to clear up lus hunting grounds. He knew that the range for his cattle and game were ample. He was wii ling to share them with the white race. Probably he did not know they were as the sands upon the sea-shore, and would destroy the range for his cattle, and turn his wild huntiug grounds into broad fields. But so it was. Senoia was the friend of Gen. Wm McIntosh, who was murdered by “ Little Prince” and bis followers, at his home, which is now owned, we believe, by Col. Hubert Springer, of Carroll county. McIntosh, as is well known, was an Indian chief, who was murdered for signing a treaty ceding certain lands, which some of the In diuns were unwilling to give up.” When McIntosh wus killed his family and friends refugeed eastward. Some of them stopped for a while near Line Creek, in ravette county ; thence they went to Milledgeville, and after transacting some official business with the State, and learning that the thurderers of McIntosh die not then desire to put to death his family and friends, they returned their homes on the Chattahoochee river, where they remained alanit two years, alter which they emigrated westward until they reached a howl ing wilderness beyond the great father of waters, since which time wo have heard nothin of the nohle, brave,gen- eskus Senoia. May our town grow to IhA city and the mime of Senoia be perpetuated. 1 will not close this brief sketch of Senoia without noticing one of the daughlcrs of the gallant McIntosh, who refuged in company with Senoia, on the death of her father,believing her life not safe at home. McIntosh had a preponderance of the white 1 man’s blood flowing in his veins. He was wealthy ana under stood the English language, therefore you need not be surprised when we tel) you that one of bis wives was a lady of the pale faced race, (as the Indians were pleased to call us, which, by the wav, is not as bad as “white trash.” This Mrs. McIntosh was the mother of a beautiful daughter whose name was iSallie. This fair daughter was the “bright particular star, the “admired of all admirers” on her way through the settlements to the Capi tol, there, and on her return to the bright waters of the Chattahoochee. Sho traveled on horseback, riding a lieautiful Indian ]>uny, which was faultless in its guit. Her movements upon her favorite animal were said to have been as “graceful as a Bwan on a silver lake.” She was elegantly dressed in the most fashionable style ■ of Georgia ladies of 1825. Her dress, when in the capital, was of the most costly silk; her shawl was red but rich, and a “tiling of rare beauty." She wore 1 very large ear-rings, winch were of the purest gold, and wonder fully and elegantly wrought. In her lieautiful black flowing hair were a profusion of the most beautiful shell combs. Sallie McIntosh possessed a bril liant mind, polished by a liberal Eng lish education, which, with her rare beauty, enabled her to lead many a Georgia gallunt’s heart captive, but to no purpose. Her sympathies, as every true woman’s always is, were with the oppressed. She felt that heaven's maledictions were upon the red man, and that he needed cheer and comfort; therefore she east he lot witli him, and went towards where the sun hides herself behind the grand Pacific.—[Senoia Journal. IiIIm’i Wert of Honor- Keeping His Parole and Meet ing His Doom. A gentleman of Joncsburg, Mo., recently returned from Texas, relates an extraordinary occurrenoe which took place a short time since in the Indian Faion. A Clio taw Indiiui having committed a willful murder, was arrested, tried and sentenced to lie shot to death. He asked for twen ty days in which to prepare and visit his friends, give his word of honor as a “brave” to return at the ajipombtl time, and was allowed to go forth without a guard or hail. At the expiration of the twenty days, ucconling to the appointment, the Hour for the execution arrived, uud the Indian, true to his. word, al the very hour and minute galloped up to the plat*) where the sentence was to lie carried out, in company with three of his sisters and three brothers, all ap]<earing as cheerful as though they had come to a dance or frolic. The coffin was then brought on the ground, but some one re marked that it was too small, ujkiii which one of the doomed Indian’s brothers told him to lie down in it and measure, whicli he cheerfully did, and laughingly said, “ It is all right.” The crowd meanwhile np- pearod to bo in the most cheerful spirits, and cracked jnkos ami laughed. At last, when all was ready, the doomed man was ordered to sit on the ground. A handkerchief was then placed over his eyes by his sister. While the Sheriff held one hand, one of the condemned Indian’s brothers held the other on each side of him. The Deputy Sheriff then stood in an old house, aliout ten steps in front of the condemned, with a rifle. From some cause the rifle went off accident ally’ the bullet passing up the roof of the house. The believing he was shot, drew up and shuddered, but did not or move from the spot. A mark. was then made over the I nd heart, witli spittle and powder, brother, while the Deputy loaded his rifle, and at took sternly aim, tired, and center of the mark. T1 with a few struggles, fell with the brother and sheriff holding his hands. No one seemed to lie the least affected except the doomed Indian’s mother, who shed tears, but was told to “shut up” bv her son, that all was over. Enforced Music and Dancing. It was in London, and in 1811. Weber was in a boat on the river with some ladies, and begun to per form on the flute, which he played to perfection. But seeing that his boat was closely followed by another, in which were several young officers, he put his flute in his pockel^^^ “Why do von stop pla.^K?” one of the officers to Welsr. “For the same reason that I licgu replied the eomjioscr. “And that is—” “Because it pleases me.” “Well, then,” said the officer, “take up your flute again, or it will please ine to throw you into the wu- ter.” The composer, seeing that the dia logue was unpleasant to the ladies lie was with, gave way and begun playing again. When leaving his bout, however, he accosted the bold son of Mars, and said: “Sir, the fear of unoying the peo ple who were with me made me brook your insolence ; but to-morrow I will have entire satisfaction. We can moot in Hyde Park at 10 o’clock. If you have no objection, we will tight with swords; we need no seconds; the quarrel is only between you and me, and it is quite useless to bring in strangers.” The officer accented the challenge. uaezrous at the up- Oat of Dean iwMflt lakes. Dean Swift was working on the Phoe nix road, Dublin, when a thunder shower name on, and be took shelter under a l ree wliore a party were sheltering alio, two yonng men and two young women. One of the young girls looked very red, till as the rain fell, her tears fell. The Dean inquired the oauee, and learned tlmt it was their wedding day; they on their way to the church, and now bar white clothe* were wet and she oouldn't go. “Nevermind, 1*11 marry yon,” said the Dean ; and took out his prayer book, and then and there married them, their witnesses being present; and to make the tliiug complete he tore a lead from hi* pocket )>ook, and with his peDoil wrote and signed a certificate which he handed to the bride. It was as follows : "Coder • tmm In gtortay woefker.

One of the gentlemen who accompa nied Horace on his trip to Texas, relates the following: While waiting for the cars to start, a newsboy came up and offered a paper to Mr. Grooly, who good naturedjy pur chased one, aud then said: This reminds me that on one occasion when I was traveling West, at one of the nations, a brusque little fellow came along selling iwpers, aud 1 stopped him to get one. “How much is it?” I asked. “ Nothing sir,” ho replied. “Nothing! Why, how do yon make money at that rate 7” “ We never charge editor* of papers, the little news dealer replied, with a toss of his head, “ we make our money off of gentlemen. ” The New York 1 mu makes these re marks: “ Some of the Parisian journals, in commenting upon the Bourbon ad dress recently issued, say* that ‘the voice of France’ must decide who shall rale.

According to a San Francis co paper Mrs. Laura D. Fair takes the greatest pains with her toilet in pris on, often changing her dress three or four times u day.

Our bond is over. However, if you should lie dis satisfied still, 1 am quite ready to give you any satisfaction you may w ish for.” The officer held out his hand, and begged his adversary to honor him with his friendship.
