Mias Antonett Roberta was killed, Mtea Vesta Brown, Mias Mary Born, Miss Maui Bussell, Auoa Lou King, Ada Wilson, Elizabeth Herrington and Katie Strick- l*u<l, were all very seriously affected, it was thought at first that Mias Vesta Brown was fatally injured. The lightning passed down one side tearing her clothe# and scorching the flesh, and literally tearing her shoe . up. She was wearing gaiters laced, and the eboe was torn oil and a portion of the soles torn from the up pers. The other girl*, with the exception of one or two, were prostrated for awhile from the ihock. All the parties are now doing well. The Good Templar* of Romo will excurt to Ac worth to-day. They anticipate a lively time. The Mdledgoville Union, in advocating the re.i oval of the Cajitol to that charming burg, says : The Mdledgoville Union say*: From every part of Iba Stats the people aro becoming alarmed about trust ing the great interests of the State in Atlanta. They have discovered that Atlauta is a dangerous place for li gisla iou. In that old Opera House not more than on vthird of the members can hear or understand what is goiug on, to that more than two-thirds of the mem bers, if they vote at all. have to vote at latufom, and the people have become heartily tired with such legis lation, and they are determined to bring tho Legtela- turo back li Mill* dgeville, where not only the mem bers, but every visitor, can hear and see what ia going on. The old State House was built for legislation, not for an Opera House.

Frost—Crops- We learn thatthwe was pretty sharp frost find some ice on yesterdav morning, says the Griffin Newt of the 17 ultimo. We are also told that in tome parte of the country vegetables have been killed within the last ten days. There was qnite a sharp frost in Atlanta on Friday night, biting beans, encumbers and other tender vegetables in exposed positions. Fortunately tho ground was very dry, otherwise the damage would have been quite serious. Heavy frost, says the Advertiser, on the night of the 28th ultimo, fell in Monroe county; some little cotton killed. Bht little cotton, has come up. Fruit not injured. The Covington Enterprise says wheat and oats, although rather backward, are looking well, and the prospect seems good for a fair crop in the conutiesof Butls, Jasper, Walton, Gwinnett, Rockdale and Newton. As far as can be ascertained, says the Ma con Telegraph, the frost of hut Friday morn ing did no very material damage anywhere in this State. It is possible that the drouth, at which the people complained so heavily, w&3 actually the means of preserving the crops from the fatality of a severe frost. The ground had become so dry that there was not evapo ration enough to produce a first-class frost, although the weather was abundantly cool. There was a heavy frost in Cartersville on the morning of the 26th. Wheat is doing pretty well, Rajs the Griffin Scar, and corn is growing some ; outs are at a dead stand-still, and so is cotton. The up land corn in this section has pretty generally been worked out, and the forward fanneis are resting upon their oars. Old Winter seems loath to depart Wo thought that he had gonc^ but frost uud ice Saturday morning are evidences that he still lingers, says the Milledgevilie Union and Re corder. The weather was dry and wo hope no serious consequences have resulted from this cold snap. We learn that in some places, on low, damp ground, cotton and corn has been damaged. Little or no damago Las been done to gardens in tho city. So far as we have heard the fruit has escaped injury. We aro informed, says the Griffin News, that the frost on Saturday was more damag ing than we were at first led to behove. We are told that the corn and cotton were bitten down to such an extent in some places as to render replanting necessary. On Friday night, says the Eutonlon Mes senger, there was sufficient frost iu tqis vicin ity to smartly injure some of tLe vegetables in gardens. Some ice was also seen. Farmers, says the Columbus Enquirer, living in the adjacent section, report consid erable frost on Saturday morning, April 26th, liked to heaflEtiher Tayfafpbnt be bad bten busy all tliPWek in Albany lobbying. As Christian men they were making a mistake in depending on law instead of on moral sua sion. They were crowding legislation beyond where healthy pnblic sentiment existed. Once in Connecticut they began to talk about pro hibition. Twenty young men who had never drank a drop in their lives formed a club and got a barrel of brandy. They said that they were not going to be beaten out their rights. Many of them became drunkards, and some ot them filled drunkards’ graves, lie thought that the fact that men were waiting with mil lions to bribe the Legislature wuh very awful. Moral suasion and noth.ng efe* would be suc cessful. Brother Ross spoke for about ten minutes, bat said nothing. Brother Parker said that Brother Hubbell talked like a pure-hearted old Democrat. But the moral forces of the country were weak ening. The church was not so powerful as it was twenty years ago. In Maine prohibition worked admirably. In Massachusetts it was pretty much the same, except in Boston, lie would like to know what a lager beer Dutch man cared for moral suasion. Some of them knew the battle that be (Brother Parker) had had with one of the most audacious lager beer sellers last sammer. They must make it a crime to sell or use intoxication drinks. Then they would have something for moral suasion to fall back upon. He believed in law when he was dealing with the lawless. Brother Morell could not be heard”, as the noise in the passage predominated. As the din was not stopped by antbority, it was pre sumed that the brethren did not care much about brother Morelia sentiments. THE MOTHER WHO SAVED HIS SCALP. Brother Wol£ who retreated from the last meeting immediately after having made & speech in opposition, explained. He went out to get some temperance tracts for Sunday. Schools. If he had known that Dr. King was anxious to go for his sc&lp, he would have waited and given him a fair show. Brother Wolf thought the only way to save people from intemperance was for the rich and good to stop building fine houses and churches up town. Let the pious peo ple givo up their houses on Fifili avenue, and go down town and live among the lager beer shops and the liquor saloons. They wanted people who would live temper ate, and take held of the rescued drunkards when they were got into the church, and throw right influences around them. Brother Wolf never rose in that meeting except when he bad something to say worth listening to. (Upioarous laughter.) Brother French said that above Forty-sec ond street not one distillery was in operation. The Washington revenue laws had done that The heavy tax on liquor had crushed them all out.

It was announced that Brother Orchard, of to lhe long dry we*ather much cotton had net the New York East Conference, was stricken then come up. The dry weather had much to do in saving the fruit crop and other crops. Had theia been a rain before the fro»t, much damago would have been done. Saturday morning we had not only a heavy frost, but ice also, in exposed places, says the Athens Watchman. The injury to and de struction of garden vegetables and field crops his been very extensive. We doubt whether the fruit crop, except grapes, raspberries and such others as were in bloom, was seriously injured, being protected by thick foliage. Cotton, where up, was killed outright. Corn, potatoes, etc., were severely bitten. They wil. recover, but there is no hope lor the cotton, unless a sufficiency for a stand hud not come up. with palsy, and aid was asked for him. Sy: patby was at once excited for him, and the brethren remained behind and took the nec essary action. Wiped Out in Blood. A TRAGICAL CHAPTER IN THE LIFE OF THE NEW COMMANDER AGAINST THE MODOCS.

TWENTY-SIX MILLS OF GROG SHOPS. New York Suu, April 27. Cm«lia Correspondence New York Tribune. As I have never seen the exact facts of the Galt House tragedy published iu the West, I will, at the risk even of making this sketch too long, here recite them: j General Nelson was in command. He stood j in the office of the Galt House one evening ! when Davis entered. Davis was in command ! of the disorganized and irregular companies | for tho defense of the city ; and, wishing to ! know the position, condition and availability ii runs . 0 f the troops under him, General Nelson turned to Davis and inquired: “How many men have yon, General Da- ‘‘About so many,” repliod Davis, stating ns near as he could the number. 4 ‘Do you know, sir, how many men you hare?” cried Nelson, growing very augrj*. The men of my command, as you know'. , I Methodist preachers met yesterday I general, are unorganized; new ones are con ! morning at Broadway and Eleventh street, j Htantly coming iu, aud it is impossible lor mo 11. i .• I Very few were in attendance before 11 o’clock. tell you exactly how many I have.” . ! After lhe opening off the meeting the minutes j “A soldier should know how many men he i , were read. Dr. Taylor was called on to lead i 1 am ashamed of you, sir !

While Y° n » sir • of the brethren were looking lor him Brother | Ia 8 a « n _ j Parker sang a very pretty song, *T ani the Door.” cried Nelson, now in a towering Some other conversation followed, when Nelson was seen to draw back his hand and Dr. Taylor, on his arrival, said that al- strike Davis across the face- some say with a it tie work, whose title is pre- though he had read a great deal on the it lit .t to th 1.- table tribute. Wo have known of t o; i *utions work of Mr. Howard’s b' os Yer inception. We have traced it :van j ..sing as a serial through the St: ral prow, and Lave exara- fci*l ; t a unpUted work, and hero is wir verdict it. As an authority of the vi jv In- st character on the sub jects whi. 1 it professes to trial, it is id Uly without a rival either .i a :rica or England. Tln-rc uujr fo . . titles# are, works more elabo rate, more in detail, than this manual ot Mr. Howard’s; but when you come to take into view ttihiptmsb of treatment to our wants, prosperity, freedom from perplexing and expensive details, and perfect reliability and conscientious statement, we have in this little )>ook the most perfect treatise on the grasses *nd forage plants of interest to ns, that the agriculture literature of America Las given birth to. It is a mortifying fact that the peo ple of this Shite have been so slow to recog nize tho valnc of sncli a work so eminently adapted to our necessity, and in which we should feel so much personal pride. But it is destined to force its way into tho ranks of agricultural works of the standard cls»s and hold its own. Others at a distance appreciate the value of the book, and orders are coming in from all quarters of the country so rapidly that a new edition will be soon issued to meet tho demand. The professor of agriculture in the University of Virginia has ordered one thousand copies for the uses of his depart ment, and this indorsement surely should induce oik own people here at home to atone for the comparative neglect and indifference with which oue of the most valuable agri cultural helps appearing in the writer's day has been received. This invaluable book, at the insignificant price of twenty-five cents, leaves no justification for ignoiance on the part of Southern farmers in regard to one of our most vital subjects of farm ami planta tion—economy. H. The Wood-Chivers Case. To the Editors of the Herald: You, no doubt unintentional!}', did Judge Trippe great injastico in your rcm&iks this morning in tLe Wood seduction case. By reference to the decision as delivered and printed, yon will find that while Judge Trippe concurred with Judge McCay in the judgment in favor of a now trial, he expressly dissented from him on certain important points, where in you make him concur. I hope you will read the decision and make such correction as your sense of justice, I know, will suggest as due aud proper. Header. Our correspondent ia correct. Judge Trippe did not concur in Judge McCay'* definition of A viitnons unmarried female. He did, how ever, urge that Miss Chi vers was guilty of hypocrisy in attending church aiutyakixi" the sacrament for months alter sbifttl submit ted to the embraces of Wood. Wc cheerfully make the correction referred to by our cor- rerpoedent, bnt at the same time, we take oc casion to express our satisfaction with the ad mirable argument of Judge W arner iu dissent ing from the decision of the majority of the Court.—Ed. Herald.] A Curious Character in New IlAMr.sintE. There is a man about thirty-five years old, now living within fifty miles of Conway, New Hampshire, who was born an invalid, and could neither walk nor talk until nearly ten years of age, and appeared idiotic. When some Un years of age, he began to walk on hie toes, which he has ever since done. Los ing hi* balance one day ho fell, striking his head on the floor, and cried out, “Bump !” This was the first and only word he was known to speak until nearly twelve years of age, when be fell & second time, repeating the first word, after which he talked freely. The most remarkable part of his bietory is that as soon as he began to talk he could read nearly as well os other children of his age. When abont eighteen years old, his father fitted up a small room for him, patting in $25 worth of no tions. He is now in company with a brother in trade, having goods estimated worth at least $6,000, and is doing nearly all the work in the store.Boston TmnacrijA. per&nce question during the past week, he glove. Davis instantly left the room, aud Nelson had not had time to anaugc it in his mind. \ commenced a conversation with m»iub gentle Mr. Dowell, tho editor of the TVuperftnee , as though nothing hail happened, but Advocate, was iu the audience, and 1m should I K ? on started to go upstairs. Meanwhile, Da like him to be called on. Mr. Dowell was introduced aad said that li came not to speak, but to listen and j vis, smarting under tho insult ho had receiv d. had gono into the l>ar aud borrowed a pis toi lrom some ouc, and ru-entered the office ‘‘the lay of the land.” Official figures m the ii™ 1 68 kelson was leaving it Following to Revenue Department showed thaf more liquor tlje loot of tlie stairs he tired at Nelson, who had been sold during the past year than in I was 011 the steps, and with fatal effect, the any previous year. The increase was more | entering Nelsou’s body. The wounded than the relative increase of popnlation. It j General caught hold of the stair-railing, and was the same in England. Jt seemed to bo a fact that in certain quarters indulgence in strong drink was greater than it was leu years ago. The activity of manufacturers and ven ders and of those interested iu the liquor traffic generally, was something marvellous. They had got out AN ORGANIZED PROTEST against legislative interference, and styled tho temperance movement, “fanatical teetotal- Lsin." This, the speaker thought, was a good sign. They must not despair because so little had been (lone. The little (little it was) had begun to tell. History shows that all great reforms took tho life-time of n genera tion, and that timo had ja.st been given to the temperance cause. The corner stone of all effort in the suppression of the liqnor evil was prohibition by law of the manufacture and sale of alcohol as a beverage. The citi zens ol Chatham township, New Jersey, had got a special act from tho Legislature, and they had voted down the sale of liqnor. All the dram-shops were closed, and iu their places school houses and small houses for workingmen, standing on their own lots, had been erected. That was the frnit of prohibi tion. This year the brewers of Newark and the liquor dealers in adjacent place* had come to an understanding. Largo sums were of fered by the m to defeat prohibition in Chat ham. POLITICAL MEETINGS IN CHURCHES. Before last election meetings iu that town- hip to further party ends were held, not iu bar-rooms, but in churches. The speaker at tended one iu a Methodist church. He hoped that beforo the Legislature adjourned a bill now in the Senate wonld become a liiw, and every township in this State would begin to work for prohibition. In this city, with its twenty-six miles of grog-shops, oue would scarcely think prohibition possible; but once get the leaven to work, and it would be only a matter of time. First let them get prohibi tion; then let them graft tho Ohio civil dam age law upon it The liquor dealers belonged to a class who were devoid of moral sense and were not approachable by moral influences. The temperance party were despised as a po litical party, because they had never address ed themselves to the national aspect of tem perance. In Washington there were over .000 f rog-diops. Who were responsible ? The citizens of the United States, for they electod the Congressmen. Yon could find more liquor iu nine Territories than in New York State. If rum and tobacoo were civili zation, then those Territories were poss'-ssed of it pre-eminently. DID HE MEAN GENERAL GRANT. The temperance cause could never gain a victory when the head of the nation at Wash ington set such an example. In Colorado there were twenty-six distilleries which i»aid $26,000 revenue to the government, enough to have paid the Dresident’s salary beforo if was raised. [Laughter.] Mr. Colfax told the speaker not long before the adjournment of Congress that Senators regarded the temper ance question as a joke, and passed the peti tions] and documents respecting it from one committee to another. Before adjourning, however, they began tc think seriously of what they were to do about it. The bill for this HUkiQ now before tbo Senate was not new. It was simply an extension of the law which had stood on the statutes for forty years. The old law prohibited the sale of liquors in the Indian Territories to any bnt officers of the army. [Laughter.] As all race distinctions are done away, they wanted this statute to be extended and include men of all races in all parts of the State. Loud applauso followed Mr. Powell's speech. An aged brother said that many years ago he saw an old Indian chief knock in the head of a whiskey barrel with his tomahawk, and empty out the liquor, so that the young men could not get it. [Applause. ] A BRANDT CLUB. Biother Hubbell from Connecticut wanted to talk on the other side. He should have supporting himself until he was helped down find laid iu one of the side rooms. From the moment the shot was fired, Nel son believed his wound was mortal, and the surgeon soon confirmed his fears. He exhibited no alarm, and met his fate as he had lived, like a brave man. At his re quest tlie Kev. Dr. Torbert, who was iu the hotel at the time, was called to administer to the dying man. Having arranged his world ly affairs, the general was baptized, aud de voted tho remaining brief time allotted to him on earth to preparing his soul for the other world. A little later aud ho was dead. “It is likely that Davis has seen Nelson’s skeleton, and that he has many times sincere ly regretted killing him. The provocation was very great, and let no man say what he would do under liko circumstances until he has been tried. We must remember that the shooting occurred at a time when there was great excitement throughout the country, and when men were fearfully wrought up; aud we must remember, too, that Davis w r as in feeble health, and hi* mind rendered sensitive by bodily suffering. After the shooting of Nelson. Davis gave himself up to the authorities, who confined him for twenty days, and then released him, in obedience to the almost universal demand of public opinion.

She was the youngest and last survivor of a family of smugglers, and was born at Inyer, near Balmoral, where her brothers, men of great fame in the district for agility uud prow ess, for many years lived in a state of chronic warfare with the officers of the ex cise, and in more degenerate times with the gamekeepers. The sisters frequently joined the brothers on their smuggling excursions, and, like most of their class, the whole fami ly wore nearly rained when they found it nec essary to Adopt a more settled mode of life. The last Duke of Gordon kindly conferred a house and small croft on the two bisters, where they carried on a small shop aud inn till about twenty years ago, when, on the death of the elder, Elizabeth gave up busi ness. In theso days of “confidence” operators it is pleasant to find an occasional case in which charity has not been “thrown away.” A short time since, as some of our readers will re member, a young woman, who gave evidence of more than ordinary culture, was found by a raiding “police party” pleying a piano ia a low concert saloou at Newark. New Jersey, and taken, with the rest of the occunant*, to the Police Court. In reply to the ques tions of the magistrate, she revealed a histo ry of most painful character, the chief point* of which were to the cflect that she was the daughter ot a gentlcmau who bad former ly been a colonel in the British Army; that she had married a bonk official, who had been reduced to penury from a condition of afiluence, and after whom she had come to the United States. Too proud to inform Ler kinsmen at home of her actual condition, and being in immediate want of food for herself and two children, she accepted the position of pianist in the saloon where she had been discovered. The magistrate, very much to his credit, was so affected by the recital of her suffering*, that he had her cared for at his residence, pending the receipt of a letter from her brother, which lately arrived from Cana da, whither she i* shortly to go, in company with her little ones.
