The lumber merchants of Florida and Geor
gia are holding an important meeting in Sa
vannah, organizing their business. They are
a boat starting an Insurance Company with
$50,000—and have adopted the following as
their classification of lumber.
1st. Clear.
2d. All heart.
3d. Prime.
4th. Merchantable.
Oth. Square edge.
Oth. Waney.
* We define these qualities as follows:
Clear—To be sound and free from all sap,
knots, pith; shakes and all other defects.
All heart—Entirely free from sap, shakos,
unsound knots and other defects.
Prime—Two-thirds heart on most sappy face
the whole length, and free of tough or round
shakes. In flooring, one face tree from sap
and the opposite merchantable.
Merchantable—Half heart on the most
siippy face the length, and free of through or
round shakes and uusound knots.
Square edge—Of sound material and square
edge regardless of sap.;
Waney—Of sound material and not exceed-
i ng one and a half inches of wane on a corner for
the upper half of the stock; where not other
wise specified, it is understood that in all
square sizes where breadth exceeds the thick
ness by four inches or more, the inspection
will apply to the broad faces as to quantity of
heart—in both qualities prime merchantable.
It is recommended that all sales of lumber
And timber shall be made on local inspection
at port of shipment, and that in the absence
of any special agreement, it shall be consid
ered cash oq presaitation of bill or bills of
lading.
In case of failure of purchasers to provide a
vessel or vessels in season as per contract, and
the respective cargo or cargoes are in readi
ness, then payment shall be made within
twenty days, and such cargo bo considered at
risk ot purchasers.
The temperance girls of Marietta have about
got the "dead thing” on the boys up there.
If a fellow drinks he has to give np all the
other little delicacies, as witness from the
following couplet which they have made their
unalterable motto:
“The lips that touch wine.
Shall never touch mine.”
The recent rains have been general through
out the State. They were cfirdially welcomed
by the farmers, and have helped growing
crops materially.
Marietta has a high-toned 700-pound bell,
which she is going to hang in her city clock.

over the question, " Which has the most in

to know the woman side licked the fight.
The Columbus Sun has some interesting
details of the failure of Mr. John King,
banker of that city, which we reproduce
here. The interview is with Col. Salisbury,
a Bank President himself:
Q.—Are there many large depositors among
the Columbus merchants?
A.—From a casual glance at the books,
some of onr wealthiest merchants have large
deposits; but I don't think our merchants
generally are much affected. The largest de
positors are mostly able to await the division
of Assets.
Q.—Is the report true that friends of Mr.
K., Tuesday, offered to put him on his feet,
and he declined their offer ?
A.—No offer, that I know of, was made to
put him on his feet. I suggested that if his
embarrassment was only temporary, no doubt
bis friends would come to his assistance; bat
Mr. King thought he would not be doing jus
tice to his creditors to continue and run the
risk of further liability, especially os he was
in very delicate health and scarcely able to
attend to business. *
Q.—What effect will this suspension have
upon onr merchants ? Will it cause any fail
ures, or greatly retard trade?
A.—The effect upon onr merchants, with
few exceptions, will not be felt in thirty days.
I don’t think a failure will resnit from Mr.
K.’.s suspension.
Q.—Do you fear a run on the banks ?
A.—I don’t fear any run on our banks.
Everybody knows they are sound, and the
stock being owned principally by our citizens,
who are liable, gives a confidence that will
not sustain a run. Besides, a run would not
hurt, as I believe every bank in the city is
prepared to pay their depositors at very short
notice.
Q.—Did speculation or the carrying of cot
ton have anything to do with the suspension?
A.- Mr. King, to my knowledge, never
speculated in anything. He, no doubt, has
allowed some of our cotton men to draw'
heavy upon him, and the recent heavy decline
in "spots” and "futures” have left him with
the bag to hold.
Q,—If there be no law suits, how soon can
affairs be wound up and a division made?
A.—I don’t suppose there will be any law
suits. Mr. King has given up all he possessed
and no law could get mors. In fact, the law
would allow exemptions that he, in his assign
ment has waived. I think in fifteen or twenty
days, we could divide all the cash assets, if in
that time, we can ascertain who the creditors
are. To realize upon his accounts, bills and
real estate, of coarse, will take time, and
twelve months may elapse before a final di
vision can be bad. But I hope to do bo
sooner.
Q.—From what you know from your cursory
examination, what is your estimate of the
deposit account?
A.—I should say $200,000.
Q.—Colonel, what about special deposi
tor*?
A.—All can be obtained at the banking
house on application to Mr. Jno. D. Carter,
who has charge.
In a notice of Mr. Brewster, of the Carters-
ville Express, yesterday, the printer made us
call him a "bumm;r" when we wrote •‘pun-

as far as the crime goes between "punning”
and "bumming,” still we give Mr. Brewster
the benefit of this correction.

The Sumter Republican says:
The Government Examiner for the National
Banks was in the city on Tuesday last, and
examined the books and fixtures of our First
National Bank, and though the officers had
no notice of bis coming, the Agent found ev
erything kept in a correct and business-like
manner, giving entire saiiefacttori.
Macon has an Indian who claims that he is
a Modoe. He professes to be able to cure

a Modoc bat a mo-doctor.
The Griffin Star says of Mr. Shade Brown,
who was accused of killing Captain Grant:
He protested his innocence of the killing
of Capt. Grant up to the last. He has been
in delicate health for several years, and close
confinement, no doubt, had aggravated Lis
disease, though be bad every comfort about
him which relatives and kind friends could
suggest, or which be desired. "Shake,” as
he was familiarly calif d, was a kind and prov
ident husband and father, and a dutiful son.
He was also a steadfast friend—bravo and
generous. He was not a malicions man, and
if be killed Grant, it was done in a temporary
fit of passion, and while drinking.
The Macon people abuse the papers there

Judge Thaddus G. Holt, of Macon, is
dead. The Enterprise says of him:
Judge Holt was born in Hancock county.
Georgia, in 1793, and hence at the time of
his decease, was in his eightieth year. He
graduated at Athens both in the literary and
law departments, and commenced the prac
tice of bis profession, wo believe, at Old
Hartford, Pulaski county. In about 1828 he
was elected Judge of the Circuit. Amassing
a large fortune, he retired from his profession
a quarter of a century ago, and since that
tirno he has devoted himself exclusively to
his planting interests. His wife and three
children survive him.
A Card from Dr. Craig.
To thh Editors oy the Herald:
I noticed in your issue of the Oth iu.stant, an
advertisement from a party who rejoices in
the nom de plume of Priam, in which the au
thor alludes to what he terms an advertise
ment of Lawson Black, Register in Bank
ruptcy. Without alluding farther to the arti
cle referred to, 1 would simply state that the
charges made by Pbiam are false, as Mr. Low-
son Black was solicited to give his views in
regard to the matter, and did so not thinking
or caring whether they interfered with the
private practice of any lawyer, and designing
nothing more than an act of courtesy to the
gentleman who solicited it, not fearing as
Priam did to let his name be known in
connection with his views, nor paying
as I expect Priam did for their publication.
If this Priam designed by this eff usion of his
to detract from the acknowledged character of
Mr. Black for honesty, integrity and virtue in
office, I take pleasure in informing him that
Mr. B.’s association with the public of Atlanta
for eight years as Register in Bankruptcy, has
never developed, even with his worst political
enemies, a single trait that would merit public
censure.
Recognizing no necessity for concealing my
real name in replying to an article that was
evidently designed as a stab at one who never
was forced to purchase space for his views, on
any subject, I am, gentlemen,
Very respectfully, Ac.,
Hugh Craig.
The Father of the Late Hon.
James Brcoks.
A correspondent of the Portland (Maine)
Press writes as follows:
Captain James Brooks, father of the mem
ber of Congress by the same name, whose
death was announced Wednesday, was a na
tive of England, and was for several years a
worthy ship-master of Portland. His last
cruise was as captain of the private armed
sloop Yankee, a unique craft, modeled by
John H. Hall, the inventor of the breech-
loading rifle which was adopted by our United
States War Department The sloop had a
flat bottom, with a keel six leet deep. She
sailed from Portland in June, 1814. On Sun
day, July 10, the Portuguese armed ship San
Jose Indiaco, with a cargo, most of whicli was
British goods, came in as a prize to the Yan
kee. The armament of this ship was in the
September following transferred by the Port
land Rifle Corps to the dismantled biig Boxer,
which placed the brig in position to defend
Vaughan’s Bridge from a threatened attack by
the enemy. The capture of this prize by
Captain Brooks was the last that was heard of
him or his vessel. Her deep keel probably
caused her to founder in a storm. Captain
Brooks left a son and daughter—James and
Eliza, who afterward married a Mr. Marsh,
of New York. The second son, Erastns, now
lof the New York Express, was born several
months after his father sailed. The orphan
children drew an annuity from the United
States Naval Pension Fund, and were cared
for by their mother and their guardian, the
late David Trail.
