THE DAILY SUN. Katuidaj Mouxing July 29. SUNi-STKOKES. The Cincinnati Times and Chronicle speaks of Governor Bullock ns buying “ gravitated in the Democratic ranks." lion. Mrs. Yelvereton is going to Japan and China if nothing happens, and the Louisville Lalger earnestly hopes “nothing will happen.” (jiffcy- The New Brunswick Times asks “shnll Mr. Huedeker l>o elected?” That is precisely the question that is bearing upon the mind of Mr. B. B©, A Connecticut man ardently wants to “represent tho mechandiek and labor- ingo men in the state assembly irrespec tiv of polytics, rclijin. or or eddicasbun." B©„ Greeley is satisfied with Republi can allairs in Mississippi. As the party in that State is hopelessly split, Greeley mnst lw very easily satisfied. It®. “HI fares the land,” quotes the New York Trihunc. Ono would judge so, particularly if tho famous farmer of Cha puqua gets hold of it, to show what he knows about farming. SET* Butler has so far encountered only twenty-six other Radicals who want to bo Governor of Massachusetts. He thinks, however, that he squints toward tho nomination moro decidedly than any of them. back-biting insinuations of the pretend ed friend. If Mr. Davis had been guilty, much as his people love him, they had been the first to turn away in loathing from him. And they despise a mean action too deeply not to appreciate a manly and comprehensive disclaimer like that of the Commercial. They would bo os poor in spirit os they are in purse, if they oould won forget it, or remember it without remembering also that a man may be a Radical and still be a just-minded gen tleman. A ME.Alt A IN GEORGIA. A Ureudfiil Talc of (lie Brutality of a Father toward his Chll dren. B®b.The Louisvillo Courier-Journal says it is firing into the ‘ ‘Bourbons”rather than tho radicals, bocauso the former “will get in tho way.” The Bourbons “get in the way” becauso they know too much to be afraid of blank cartridges. B®, To show what sort of material the American people will shortly bo lionising in the person of tho young Duke Alexis, of Russia, it is necessary to state only that he speaks six languages fluently; smokes excessively; is a connoisseur in mccrckaums *and champagne; can swear in twelvo tongues besides his nativo Rus sian, and play billiards liko a professional. The Scandalous Report About Mr. Davis, We have heretofore given our rea ders the card of Mr. Davis upon this subject; also the explanation of the Louisville Commercial, in which the slander first appeared. We now present what the Memphis Appeal says editorially—it being pub lished in the city of Mr. Davis’ resi dence—in reference to the same scan dalous charge. It is in these words : Wc both deny and disbelieve the accu sation made by"the correspondent of the Louisvillo Commercial. Wo believe it originated in malice alone, and that it is ns false ns it is infamous. This sarao in dividual, wo nro iuformed, visited Mr. Davis for tho purpose of interviewing him, and was expelled by Mr. Davis from his office only tho day or two be fore. lie was a correspondent of the New Yolk Herald, writing for so much a lino in the Louisville Commercial; and immediately after his expulsion, we liavo been told, in tho presence of two or more gentlemen in this city, he said that he would get even with Mr. Davis He has essayed to do it by this slander. Ho was expelled for using publicly the contents of a letter marked private and confiden tial, written by Mr. Davis, lie woo too degraded to know, or too vile to refrain from on infamy impossible to honorable men. It is not strange that such a crea ture should be a little sore nud becomo malignant from the touch of Mr. D. ’s boot, nor is it strange that one copablc of vio lating the confidence among gentlemen should also be capable of any slander ne cessary to gratify his revenge against n man ho had injured. To such n reptile tho motive was irresistible, and no possi ble testimony from him is worthy of ga thought, or could receive attention from any not tho enemies of Mr. Davis. “Men of as high character as live in tho world are to bo found here, and throughout tho Stale of Missr'sstppi whoso voucher in behalf of the distin guished statesman, soldier, and ex- Prcsidcnt goes back for forty years. Wo have ourselves had more or loss acquaint ance with his public and private reputa tion sinco 1835, and living before 1840 four years in tho same county with him, never heard a breath to sully his famo from that day to this, notwithstanding tho readiness with which, as a Whig an tagonist and editor, we may then be sup posed to have welcomed charges against n political opponent. If a private life liko that of Jeff. Davis’, known intimate ly by millions, is not to go unscathed among men, then we despair of finding a faultless gentleman. “The card of Mr. Davis appears in an other column. He has never been sus pected, much less accused, of falsehood. The whole story originated with an igno rant negro. It was readily gobbled up by this revengeful correspondent, who may have cosily instigated tho negro to the slander, and probably did so. No respectablo citizen will give it counten ance; that will bo loft to tho enemies of Mr. Davis, who are numerous aud pow- ful enough, aud the enemies of the Southern peoplo as well.” Til addition to this, we subjoin what the Lovisville Ledger says upon the subject in its issue of the 24th inst. TUB IBIt. PA VIS SCAN DAP. Let it rest, henceforth and forever, in that silent oblivion to which tho just and generous heart of Col. Kelly has con signed it. It is all the more gratifying to the friends of Mr. Davis that the very spot of its origin should bccomo the place of its sepulture. The Commercial first gave it publicity—tho Commercial is tho first, with a generosity and fairness unequalled in the annals of Radical jour nalism, to deal it a prompt aud manly death-blow. We commend tho Commercial's article of yesterday, on this subject, to the care ful perusal of all good men, of every shade of political opinion. Alen of all parties ore too ready to oirculate uu founded and gratuitous scandals against the conspicuous men of the other party, and the < 'ommercial has set an example which tho editorial profession may be proud of. Tbo CommerciaTs article docs credit to onr common humanity. None hut a bravo, manly, and generous heart could have conceived it, and to utter it j-imoiliul paste. . iu a Radical paper, required a moral was j], e re ply ) “console yourself with courage which defies all that is little nnd ,.... that paste is very adhesive, mean. It has enabled ns to eotimate th. vou as long as you difference between tbo generous, onen i and will stick to you as long .is you political opponent and tho sly, dastardly, I live. From tho Gridin Middle Georgtzn, It bos been our unpleasant duty to re eord an instuuce of barbarous cruelty that would aliock the nerves of a Hottentot. Tho author of this cruelty, is one Pink Dupree, of Pike county, aud the victims of lus brutality are bis two children, one 8 years of age, and tbo other 10. Brutes will not maim tlieir offspring in tho in human manner to which this fiend re sorted. Ho commenced his work of dovilment by first taking these children from their grand-parent iu Mississippi, (to whoso pecial care they had been given by a dying mother to raiso and educate) with tho understanding that ho would carry them to a town near by and maku them somo presents, and return with them. But instead of returning with them ho bronght them to Georgia, where they liavo been the special recipients of bis cruelty. It would seem that in bis lieurt was concentrated the evil of all mankind, and that bis soul is but an embodyment of tho evils common only to tho lower order of the brute creation. These two boys were brought into our office. We examined thorn. The tips of tlieir thumbs aud fingers bad tho ap pearance of being mashed. They were blue from bruises, and tho nails of sev eral had come off. Tho boys on being asked tho cause of these mashed fingers, replied that their father bad split a pole and put their fingers in the split, and pulled out tho wedge, leaving them in tho clamp. One of them hail a peculiar mark on his nose that had tho appear- anco of having been in a place similar to that in which the fingers were clamped, and the little boy did not hesitate to as sert that his father had placed his nose in the clamp. The other ono added that ho had placed his tongue in tho clamp, and showed it to the crowd. A piece had been cut out. Tho scar of the clamp could be readily seen. Besides these marks of brutality,two great, gaping scars on the breast of one, and a back, black with bruises, was shown us, together with scars and knots on the head. Bruises, scars, lacerated sores, told a talc of cruelty too horrible to be repent ed, and all perpotrated by a devil of a father upon tbo persons of unprotected, defenceless, puDy orphan children. This “fiend in human form,” confessed that ho had cruelly whipped tho children, aud that ho could not otherwise control them. But the children know no such a werd as “whip.” Stinks, hoe-handles, the fist, “beats,” but never ‘whips.’ A broken tooth in tbo mouth of ono of the children, and an almost broken arm of tho other, together with tales told by neighbors, attest moro than words can express. The step-motlier of theso children is a most worthy lady. The children say that she wns kind to them on all occasions. The man Dupreo was arrested on a writ of habeas corpus, by the grand-father of tbo children, who desired to carry them to Mississippi, and rather than that the case of cruelty should bo ventilated, set tled it. The grand-father left for Missis sippi with them yesterday. There is no law wlioso penalty is commensurate with the crime committed by Dupreo. We re gret that such a state of cruelty should appear in our columns to disgust somo of our readers of tender sensibilities, Such on 1 rage should not go unpunished. Law and humanity cry out against it; the icoplo deplore it, and as an organ, pub- isliod in tho interest of tbo people, ir< /enounce Hie outrage. A Monster of tlic Deep Cnugltt by a Fishing Party. Tuesday afternoon, a fishing party, consisting of Dr. Postley, Messrs. Wm. Areston, G. Buckingham and Hudson Williams, accompanied by Bovcral ladies, while amusing themselves near Wilming ton Island, taking such specimens of tho finny tribe as accommodated them with a nibble, wore suddenly surprised by a very large inhabitant of tho briny deep, that seized upon the bait, nud was actu ally booked on tho small tackle they were using at the timo for catching small fish. Finding they had a whale, or some thing else of huge proportions nnd pro digious strength and activity, they ilis- continued tlieir efforts to take nny more, devoting their skill and attention to the unknown monster. They “played” him for a long timo.— Finding it impossible to adopt harsh measures, they humored him for tho pur- pore of gettiug him into shallow water, which they at last succeeded in doing, whon they found that they had caught a huge saw-fish. The anehor-ropo was thrown over his head and caught be tween the saws, or teeth, which, being exceedingly largo and stout, onablcd his captors to drag him to tho shore on the beach of the Wilmington Island. The fish was found to bo twelvo foot iu leDgth. The head and saw measured four feet, which were cut off by the party and brought to tho city. The saw has 24 teeth on each side, varying from one to two inches in length and from a half to two inches apart. Tho saw was taken to tho office of Dr. Postley, on Congress street, where the Doctor lias them on exhibition for his friends aqil otliorH who are disposed to think this a fishy story. The saw fish is not generally so large as this ono was; their ordinary size is under ten feot, and a fish of from twelve to fifteen feet is considered a very largo ono. They reacmblo the shark in appear- ance, tho saw is a largo cartilaginous con tinuance of the upper jaw. They, like tho sword fish, are said to be very de- atmetive to whales.—Savannah Heirs. A gentleman asked a clergyman for the use of his pulpit for a young divine, a relation of his. “ I really do not know,” said the clergyman, “how to refuse you ; but if the young man can preach better than I can, my congregation would l>e dissutisfied tvitl” me afterwards ; anil if lie should preach worse, I don t think he s lit to preach at all.” « Really, my dear,” said poor Mr. Jones, to his “lietter half,” “yon have sadly disappointed me.

Dalton steps forward with her claim as a “Summer Resort." Revivals are going on in the Baptist and Methodist Churches in Dalton. Savannah women amuse themselves by getting drunk and parading the streets in their stocking feet. A railroad is to be built from Fort Val ley to Perry, a distance of twelve miles, in time to move tho growing cotton crop. Tbo Central Railroad has taken the mat ter in hand. On Suudav night, lGth instant, a diffi culty took place between two freedmen, at the plantation of Mr. George Smith, in Hancock county, near the Baldwin lino, resulting in the shooting and killing of George Matthews by his son-in-law, Charles Dubose. Tho cause of disagree ment was a oliicken. From the Dalton Citizen. Dalton consumes abont seventy-five kegs of lager beer a week, and yet busi ness is dull. From tho Delton Citizen. A cow, with a bell on, was fonud in the old well back of the Presbyterian Church, day or so ago. She was deoently inter red by filling up tbo well. From the Dalton Citizen. An unusual amount of sickness, fur this high, healthy latitude, bos prevailed in onr town for a wook or two past—par ticularly among children. From the Dalton Citizen. The freight business on the 8. R. Sc Dalton Railroad has increased considera bly within the put few weeks. It is now four-fifths greater than it was this time last year; and if the increase of business con tinues in the same ratio over that of last winter, it will require five or six freight trains doily to do tho busiuess of tho road from this point the coming winter. This shows a healthy condition of tho road, which we are indeed rejoiced to see. From the Dawson Journal. 37. M. J. W. Poindexter, of Baker oonn- ty, accompanied by his wife; came to Dawson week before last. The wife took the cars at this point for the purpose of visiting her relatives, aud Mr. P., after selling a load of cotton which he had brought, with the understanding that he should meet his wife st the depot on the 17th (to-day.) On arriving at his home, he retired in his apparent usual hooltb, and was fonnd dead in bis bed next morning. From the Oroenaboro Herald, 27. Dr. McJunkin, a highly respected gentleman, died at his residence in this county last Saturday, after a long and >rolrocted illness. Ho was bnrried on tlonday, with Masonic honors. During the thunder storm last week, Mr. David Leslio, a worthy citizen of this county, lost threo cows, killed by lightning. Last Saturday the 22d inst., Mr. B. G. Carlton, left at this office, two open cot ton bolls, also one single cotton limb containing 25 bolls and forms. This we believe is tbo earliest cotton ever known in this country. From tho Mzcon Telegraph. Mrs. McLaughlin, who lives on Third street, between Pine and Oak, has two line cows and calves, and she separates them at ni^ht by penning the cows and turning the calves out on tho street. On Tuesday night lost some mean and unmerciful wretch came across the calves in the street, and with a largo strong pocket- knife, split tho back of the one wide open, from the shoulder blade to the hip, and stabbed tho other in the side to the depth of three or four inches. From the HawkiniTllle Dispatch. A serious difficulty occurred on Friday oveninglost between Messrs. W. P. Camp bell, Wright Campbell, and father, on tho ouo side, and M. G. Wiloox, Jno. C. Wil oox, and Jos. L. Wilcox, on tho other side. The difficulty was tho result of an attempt to settlo a partnership transac tion. During tho fray Messrs. Wright Campbell aud father were each struck upon tho head by Mr. Jos. L. Wilcox, with a small bar or rod of iron. We have sinco learned that Mr. Campbell, father of the other two gentlemen, has died from his wound. It is stated, also, that there is but little prospect of tho recovery of Mr. Wright Campbell. From tbo Savaunab Republican, 27. Mr. Frederick Douglas, a citizen of Appling county, was yesterday arrested by a Deputy United States Marshal upon a charge of passing counterfeit money. Tho counterfeit money, i. e., two twenty dollar National Bank notes, was pnsssed upon S. W. Gleason, of this city, by tho party above named, who claims to have been entirely innocent of their character. Mr. Douglass alleged that he had receiv ed tho money in the duo course of busi ness from a merchant in this city. There is a‘large amount of counterfeit money of this denomination in circulation in this State and in Florida, and somebody is evidently doing a lar^o business in “shov Popular Jamilp Seining machine* AMERICAN STANDARD SCHOOL SERIES.

We trust that this arrest may lead tho authorities to tbc fountain head of this rascality, whether in this city or elsewhere. The following story is told con cerning tho celebrated Koh-i-noor captured in India; “ The Koh-i-noor was obtained in this cheap way: In 1849 that well known diamond be came part of the spoil of the Anglo- Indian army, on the conquest and annexation of the Punjab, and being then estimated at (1,250,000, there was great joy over such a prize. Without consulting the army, Lord Gough and Charles Napier, chiefs in command, nudaciously presented the great diamond to Queen Victoria in the name of the combatants. It was not tho General’s right to rob the army by bestowing the greatest of its spoils of war upon tho Queen, nor ought she to have accepted it without seeing that the soldiers had been paid for it. From that time the Indian army have not rcoeived a shilling for their capture of the Koh-i-noor, and Victoria has retained tho gem asjicr own personal property, instead of placing it among the crown jcwelB belonging to the British nation. At Saratoga, liotcl and shop keep ers begin to complain that the season is a dull ono, the list on the books at each of tho large hotels being between two and three hundred short of last year.
