Messrs. Alien, Freer <fc lllges, Columbus :
Gests : Colton is dying as it comes up. I
have never seen anything like it. Need worth
here from $1 te $1.25 per bushel. The
drenching rains have ezhansted the guanos.
They will prove worthless. Those that have
cotton and can hold will get twenty cents very
soon, if any other country South has suflered
as have Talbot, Taylor, Meriwether, Upson,

will the planters and merchants do ? It may
save the country, as many are planting corn.
If I had money I would buy cotton now.
Last Thursday evening, about six miles east
of Cusseta, in Chattahoochee county, there
was a very severe hurricane passed over the
plantation of Mrs. Ally Duncan, demolishing
everything in its line. There was scarcely a
house left standing on the premises—dwell
ing house, mill house and other out houses
were torn to the ground. Mrs. Dnncan and
a Mr. Le Mack were severely injured Mrs.
Dnncan was in the dwelling house when it
was falling. Mr. Le Mack was in the mill
house; had just closed the mill, and was
getting out when he received his injuries.
Mrs. Duncan and Mr. Le Mack are not ex
pected to recover. Information from Mr. J.
F. Duncan. The neighbors on Satnrday came
together and fixed up the houses temporary.

While some farmers have planted a full supply
of corn for themselves, others have planted
very little. Taking the county as a whole,
there is not near enough corn planted to sup
ply its wants. The oat crop is doing very
well; of wheat there was not a large crop
planted, and what there is is not flourishing.
The press, almost without exception, con
demn Governor Smith in bitter terms for his

saddest thing of all is, that the Dalton Citi

The Cartersville Express comes chock full
of uews this week, from which we extract the
following items:
We learn that the riDglraderin burning Col.
Roper's stables, and who escaped from the
officer week before last, has been re-arrested
and lodged in jail in this city. HeUas ap
prehended this time by men of his own color.
Elias Cain, an old citizen who lived near
Field s Bridge, in Cherokee connty, fell dead
a short time ago, while dropping cotton seed.
It is supposed that be had a paralytio stroke,
which was probably superinduced by the pres
sure of the cord of the sack around his neck
and shoulders. ,
To-day Cartersville numbers a population
of about three thousand souls, (2,240 when
the census was taken in 1870). About eighty
business houses now grace her streets, a good
proportion of which are handsome brick buil
dings. A three-story brick hotel and several
boarding houses and restaurants stand open
nigh and day for the accommodation of
boarders and visitors. A twenty thousand
dollar Court House and a fifteen thousand
dollar jail are among her public buildings.
Seven churches—four whites and three
blacks—the whites are Baptist, Methodist,
Presbyterian and Episcopalian, the latter not
yet completed; the blacks are Baptist, African
and Northern Methodist churches. Five
regular schools—two female and three male,
besides a number of primary schools—the
most important of the five regular schools is
the Cartersville Female Seminary, whioh is
taught by a corps of as efficient female teach
ers as any like institution in the South, and
is attended by upwards of eighty pupils; the
remaining four are taught by ripe scholars
and experienced teachers, averaging about
thirty pupils each.
Harris still squats upon his shrivelled hams,
and throws thistles at his brother editors.
Marrying didn't do him a bit of good.

Brother B. Rewstcr, the eminent bummer
who furnishes puns for the Cartersville Stin-
dard, has this grim item:
A thief stole some of our onions one night
last week. We have old double-barrel ready
for him now.
There are twenty executions for murder, to
take place in Georgia In the next two months,
unless Smith pardons them, which aint at all
likely.
The Cuban gentleman who has recently
purchased St Catherine's Island intends
making sugar cane culture and the products
arising therefrom the leading feature in his
plantation operations. Arrangements are also
being made to place quite a number of cattle
on the never failing glades which cover a
considerable part of the island.
The G«Tere«r'i
Accuser* and Alias Kbcr-
hart*
To THE Editors of THE Herald:
There has been some editorial comment on
the execution o£ the young woman, Susan
Eberhart, lost Friday, in Webster county,
which we think is cruelly unjust. % We use
this language as exactly expressive of the
wrong which these comments have inflicted;
for Heaven knows it mast be at the best, we care
not how well one’s conduct may be fortified
by a sense of doty performed, a trial to the
sensibilities of any one possessing a human
heart, to be placed in the situation in which
this sad case brought the E^cutive of the
State. For a man, a weak human being—one
conscious of his own imperfections and short
comings, to be made the absolute arbiter of
life and death, to be compelled to act—to
know as he acted that his fiat was forever ir
revocable, is simpiy Awful. Now, superin
duce upon these facts the farther pain
which a firm religions belief in a future
state must give, when this official act must
put to an eternal test the readiness or the un-
preparedness of the immortal soul sent to its
final account, and what an ordeal do we have
presented to our minds of what a Chief Ex
ecutive of the State must undergo when ap
pealed to for a final decision in a capital case.
But still further—imagine the case presented
to be one of a woman, a simple girl rather,
who must go to her death relying cn her un
aided strength,under circumstances of honor;
when the mother who bore her, for shame
keeps away and denies the last word of conso
lation and hope—can any picture in ail this
sad life of ours, be more harrowing? The
feeling which certain of your cotemporaries
display over this too sad case ef crime and
suffering, is horrible to a manly, Christian sen
sibility and I am not the least inclined to re
proach it. Bat if this tenderness and humanity
are creditable to these individuals, the agony
of spirit which Governor Smith endured in
his conflict with feeling and duty covered him
with honor. The Governor’s accusers felt
for the poor girl in her supreme misery, he
was forced to feel too for the wretched vic
tim, and at the same time for the murdered
wife and the outraged law. That he did thus
feel and suffer his inJimato friends can bear
witness. The night after the final decision
was made on poor Sasun's case, Governor
Smith did not sleep one hour. Was it remorse
that drove away sleep? How preposterous—
what an abuse of language. Why not recall
the words of doom? Why not save this self-
imposed anguish of spirit when a single dash
of a pen could so easily have done it ? No,
the truth is, that this resort would have been
the readiest and happiest reluge if this up
right magistrate had dared to have
availed of it But too well did
be know what the friends of law and order
expected of him, and what his own conscience
demanded of him as a sworn officer. It will
not do, Mess. Editors, for men in stations of
vast responsibility, to let feeling overlay
judgment. How easy by this argument, to
test the positions which the Sumter Republi
can and the Macon Enterprise have assumed
in the .case of Susan Eberhart For the argu
ment’s sake suppose that this poor girl had
stood out to the.last—impenitent, hardened,
defiant Suppose on|the gallows she had said,
“Yea, I loved Spann, his wife was in the way ;
I saw her murdered, and stood by consent
ing, for that was the only way out of my
heart’s trouble and I die glorying in the deed. '*
Now, mark these words and the case
which they make. If Susan Eberhart
had so conducted herself could there
be found in the broad expanse of
this State one man or woman so callous, one
whose moral sense was so confused as to say
this woman died wrongfully, and that her
death disgraced the Executive or the State
that honored him with tbe mighty trusts she
placed in his hands ? You know, sirs, that
there could not have been found one such
apologist. But because she was repentant,
because meekly and uncomplainingly she
went to her doom, with some the case is en
tirely changed. And pray why should it be
so regarded when we construe it in the light
of a high public performance of duty, and en
forcement of law. Tbe facts remain just the
same so far as the crime of murder is involved,
whether this doomed woman died meekly con
fessing her crime, or as defiant and unrepent
ant as the hardened thief on the cross. It is
an awful thing to record of the State of Geor
gia that such a crime as the murder ot Mrs.
Spann, in this year of grace, was perptrated,
and by such hand; but if there is one single
incident- connected with this unhappy and
humiliating affair that restores our eqaanim-
ity or soothes our wounded pride, it is the
fact of Governor Smith’s noble courage in up
holding the law under circumstances so try
ing to a humane heart, and so liable to mis
construction and false coloring, Brutus him
self, who, as a magistrate, ordered the execu
tion of the son nf his own loins, did not de
serve more the respect and admixation of the
defenders ot law than does Governor Smith
for his inflexibility in the case of Susan Eber
hart. Justice.

energy which seems to communicate new life to
the system, and renovate the feeble, fainting powers
of nature. Its operation upon the tissues of the body
does not consist in affecting the irritability of the liv
ing fibre, but in imparting a sound and healthy stim
ulus to the Vital Organs.
It strengthens substantially and durably the living
powers of the animal machine; is entirely innocent
and harmless; may be administered with impunity to
both sexes, and all conditions of life.
There is no disease of any name or nature, whether
of old or young, male or female, but that it is proper
to administer it, and if it be done seasonably and pre-
aervingly, it will have a good effect. It is perfectly in
credible to those unacquainted with the Bitters, the
facility with which a healthy action is often in the
worst cases restored to the exhausted organs of the
system ; with a degree of animation and desire for food
which is perfectly astonishing to all who perceive it.
This Medicine purifies the blood, restores the tonic
power of the fibres and of the stomach and digestive
organs; rouses the animal spirits, and re-animates the
broken down constitutions of mankind.

tiling, it is bad policy to be rude to children.
They are imitative, and act towards their
playmates as their guardians act towards
them. Probably moat parents, even very
kindly ones, would be a little startled at the
aaoertion that a child ought neve* be.reproved
tin the presence of othera This so constant
. an occurrence that nobody thinks of noticing
ut; nobody thinks of considering whether it
be right and beet or not. But it is a great
rudeness to a child, and ought never to be
done. Mortification is as unwholesome as it
in comfortable. When the wound is inflicted
by the hand of a parent, it is all the more cer
tain to wrankle and do harm. Let a child
see that hU mother is mo anxious that he
should have the approbation and good will of
her friends that she will not call their atten
tion to hie faults; and that while she never
under any circumstances, allows herself to
forget to tell him afterwoid^eloue, if he has
behaved himself improperly, ehe will spare
him the additional pain aud mortification of
public reproof; and while that child will lay J
'these secret reproofs to heart, he will still ha j
happy.
