A Reminiscence of tlie Fugitive. Written for Memorial Day. To the Editors or the Herald : Eight years ago. this spring, our weary, war-beaten soldiers, the last of tho Southern arm . but rendered to a conquering foe, and their noble Chieftain, on Virginia’s soil, delivered up his sword. The world said the South was conquered, and well does every Southern heart remember the funeral pall that eclipsed the very sunlight in our Southern homes and hearts, as the news spread through hill and dale, city and hamlet, that the war straggle was over, and the victory lost to us. Strong men’s heads bowed with grief, and women and children wept such tears as they had never wept before. Surely it was a time for tears! Four long years of trial, war and ruin, and the result a nation of graves! Around these silent graves, at this season of each year, the daughters of the South, through the length end breadth of our land may be seen strewing freeh flowers on many a green mound and watering them with tho tears of widows and orphans. It is not our purpose, however, to resurrect former things, “let tho dead past bury its dead,” let the mem ory of the sleeping heroes be safely enshrined in the irta of tho«e who loved and honored them. It is with a 1 ving army we have to deal, an army of noble Southern women, who never surrender to any hnman conqnrer. While men’s hearts were paralyzed by tho shock of disaster, women arose at once to endure the Battle of Life, which began for them in the dawn of a new era. Tho same hands that had girded the swords their sleeping husbands, fathers, brothers and sons; the same boar Is that bid them God speed, now girded on their own armor, not of sword and buckler, but the armor of every day life—the shield of faith, the girdle cf fortitude, the staff of patience and the banner of peace—with those weapons woman can qner the world. Every day this army may be seen noiseless in its tread, moving on through this whole Southern land. It is found in many a home, whether in city or forest- brave women, noble women, true women! Go into our country homes and see the mothers and sisters, who were once the petted children of wealth with slaves to answer at every call, now toiling through each honr, making homo happy by their labors of love. The widest man hath said, “greater is be that cooqueretli his own spirit than he that taketh a city,” and He who seeth the secrets of all heats, slone knoweth what struggles these heart-battles have coet our country-women. Find them where you will, the same armor is on, the same badge distinguishes them—woemn fitted to grace any foreign court, are found battiing against the tide of fortune, and ee Idem very seldom, murmuring at their lot. Look Into the schools in our land, and who are training the future generation* of our country ? Women who adorned princely halls. Does it require no battle to He Certifies to a Lie in a Com-1«° trough tho tread-mm of e«ry a. y school life Wbo would imagine, as they see some plain Southern mission Issued fiy Himself.

M gratulata Miles on this littlo good luck, for L tainly deserves it. He is a glorious fellow, full of energy and enterprise. We congratulate the Gov ernor also, because he has not made an appointment since hia inauguration which will give more general a dial action. Miles is a geniue, and will still remain at th> stand of Kedwine & Fox, to dispense his humor upon the daily throng who visit tho corner. Frofrasioual Jariua. To Tiiit Editobs or the Herald: In your issue of to-day there a)>i» uis a good beaded a* above. Ihe writer, who signs him* Disgusted Bystander,'’ propounds Ihe inquiry long will this slate of affairs exist?" The an simple and ea*y. It will exist uotil our Log applies the remedy. Jury fees should l>e ma foiut all over the State at one dollar per diem. No Jurer should be required to serve lung* r than one weak at any term of the Court, nor longer tb u two weeks in one year. If not already so, the law should l»e made so that no Juror should in any event be enter tained or fed at the expense of the public, except in criminal trials for felony where they arc not per mitted to disperse. Then, and not till then, will the e\il referred to by “A Disgusted Bystander’’ be reme. died, and the time-honored jury system of our State Im restored to the prUtine parity that was claimed for it iu imU Mlum days. Our judicial and legislative i•tlleer* - should give this subject the attention that its importance demands, both for the purpose of main taining the pur.ty of our jury system and for the purpose of reducing the taxes of a people who lest so much by the results of the late war, and who have also suffered so much by the plunderings of :hc Radical hosts that had us iu their c.utchcs so long after the close of the war. (TnTtX. Memorial Day. The ladies belonging to tbo Memorial Asso ar* requested to meet with badges at 3 o'clock to-day at the City Hall. They are requested to bring all the flowers they can possibly get, and they will find car riages to carry them to the cemetery. The Executive Department will be closed to-day in deference to the sanctity of the occasion to permit the Governor and hie staff to participate in the decoration of the soldiers graves. See notice of extra street cars to the cemetery. Mr. Mallou, the Superintendent of the Public Schools, cannot be given too much credit for the gre it interest he has taken in the memorial exercise*. He has had a number of his scholars providing wreathes all day, and all the schools will take a place iu the procession. A gentlciuAU, living not many miles from the Library, whose pulse beats to the time of D.xio, has caused to be receptich: for voluntary contributions to the Monument Fund. As the Monument Association lacks, as we Lavo learned, only $600 to complete the monument to onr Confederate dead, we respect.'uly, but very hopefully, move that we, the citizens of Atlanta, duly assembled, in this lOUi day of May, our glorious memorial day, do, each one of us, contribute something towards the completion of the Confederate Monument; and we hereby tender our thanks to the patriotic gentleman who has kindly provided contribution boxes for us. Citizens of Atlante, what say you ? A 1’rineely Entertainment. The entertainment given by Mr. Miles G. Dobbins oa Thursday evening, on the occasion of the marriage of his beautiful daughter. Mias Mamin Dobbins, was one of the most elegant aud expensive ever known in this city. The reception waa at Ida residence in Wert End, which, until a late hour at night, was a living panorama of gaiety, f tahion, music and banqueting. The boose and grounds wero beautifully illuminated with lamps and lanterns from colonade to cupola, and to the guests appearing in tho distance, presented the appearance of enchanted palaces described In fairy stories. The bridal party, in splendid equipage, ar rived about 10 o’clock in ihe evening, and were greet ed with a soul-stirring peal of music from Prof. Frey- er's excellent string band, which throughout the night dispensed royal music to “ dancers dancing In tune,” and every arrival thereafter waa greeted with an ap propriate overture from the band. The walks were spread with carpets, and the lawn provided with tempting tetc-a-tetcs, which (with the soft moonlight) can testify to many a tend r word, in sweet accents spoken, and many a merry laughter, the echo of some sharp repartee or sparkling witti cism. At 11 o'clock sapper was announced, and while the bridal party adjourned to the dining room, the many happy gueete were furnished with tempting and tasty refreshments In tho reception rooms, the colonade and the yard. The dress table was a rare combination of beauty, elegance and taste, and mast have been prepared at a munificent outlay. After supper the quadrille was formed, and while the devotees of Terpsichore were reveling and making merry in the dancing saloon, the Goddess of Love was playing many a prank on the laznplitten lawn, curtain ambnscadea and “moonlit” retreats. The many gueete began to disperse about 1 o’clock, and went home light-hearted and grateful to Mr. Dobbins and his elegant lady for the princely entertainment which they had so tastefully and munificently pro vided. Among the prominent guests present were General Austell and lady, Colonel Oeorge W. Adair, Judge O. A. Loehrane, Major B. H. Broom head and lady. Major 8. B. Wight, and Mr.Seago and lady. * Twelve yonvi ago a Connecticut former kill ed himself by placing the muzzle of a gun against hia breast and diecharging it with a poker. Last Wednesday morning hi* sou, also a farmer, in the name room, with the same gnu, and in the game manner, took bit life. A novtl and highly interesting case came up for a bearing before Jmdice E. W. Munday yesterday morn ing at 10 o’clock, during *.he investigation of which some of Bullock’s illegal, fraudulent, and void acta while Governor of Georgia, came to light. Judg ments had been rendered and execution* issued against A. T. Finney by R. A. Johnson, acting as Jus tice of the Peace in and f-.r the 1231th district Georgia Militia, under an appointment from Bullock the then Governor. The dei-jndant in execution came into Coart end moved to set aside the judgments against himself, and the executions issued u nder and by virtue of them, on the grouud that they were void, R. A. Johnson not being at the time he signed the judgments and executions, a legal Jus tice of the Peace. Tbo motion was resisted on the ground that the Court (Judge Munday), bad no au thority to decide whether or net Johnson waa a Jus tice of the Peace, aud that no objections, or plea to the jurisdiction had been set forth or insisted upon at tne trial. Col. J. Tom Finley appeared as counsel for the plaintiff in exeent on. Colonels W. II. Dabney and P. Walpole represented the movant, and replied, f that the question for tho coart to decide was not ver is . whether Johnson was a Justice of the Peace, but ature I whether tbo papers—tho executions—were legal- valid. The records from the Executive Department showed that Johnson had been appointed to the office by the Governor, and that a written application io appointment had bet n made by Johnson. The Commission issued to him was, however, in regular form for Justices of the Peace, and recited that Bullock, by virtue of au'hority in him, and by virtue of Jobnson’s election to the office, did commision, empower, authorize, etc , him the said Johnson, to do and perform all functions, powers, duties and acts of a Justice of the Peace.wheu the fact was, no election had been held, and the Gov ernor knew it, but in the face of this Lad the brazen audacity and effrontery to certify this commission with tbe great seal of tbe State, and un der it Johnson acted, and from some cause, tbe legali ty of his acta had not been denied until this occasion. In making these statements, we intend no reflection on Mr. Johnson far accepting the tender, for so far as we know, be is a clever gentleman. But no man of ordinary intelligence, who ever read the the Constitution and laws of tho State, would hold that the Executive possesses, or possessed at that time (for there has been no change .-iuee in this respect) the power to appoint Justices of the Peace. Much less would any lawyer entertain the idea for a moment. The Governor can only appoint Notaries Public who are ex officio Justices. Tbo argu ments over Judge Munday reserved his decision until 2 o'clock p. m., when he sustained the motion and held Lhe judinents and executions invalid. The case, we are informed, will be carried to tbe Superior Court. THE COURTS. Kuprc n art. In this Court yesterday.

Phillips was sub mitted to the jury at the hour of adjournment. matron or maiden going with cheerful step through the cold of winter snows and the heat of summer days, that those same matrons and maidens once some cherished wife or daughter who were shielded from every storm of life that love and wealth could shelter; or who would suppose that the pale form that stitches by a midnight lamp, was the idolized daughter, who made her home bright by her presence? Fiercer still docs this heart battle rage, when these same daughters arc compelled to appear in public positions, from which their native modesty revolts, for the means of subsistence for some aged parent. Talk of Spartan women, or of noble women in France or Eng'and. who were punished at the stake, but there are no braver hearts than have beat in South ern women since tbe day that Lee surrendered. It was far easier to march into the thickest of the battle or be wounded in glorions*warfare, than to fight down the high-born pride and the chivalry of true, womanly hearts. Often wo see the first ladies in our land spreading tables for the support of themselves and their children, and compelled to do the work of slaves when their very souls revolt at such occupation. God only knows what this battlo for bread costs Anxious mothers are obliged to leave little children all through the long days to meet engagements iu public avocations. Sometimes .those mothers re. turn home to find their loved ones sick and dying. There have been more instances than ono where the ADgel of Death had marked its victim in their house hold whilst they were at daily work, and in a few short hoars some little idol was laid in its coffin and the mother allowed one day to weep ere her work went on. There are little children, too, in this army—child ren dwarfed by werk beyond their years, and some too weak for this battle sink beneath the burden of their armor, aud kiud angels take them to a world of rest* God help this silent army. Mai y of its sol diers are homeless, remembering ouly far back iu tbe panorama of life tbe places they once knew as home, where the flowers bloomed, tbe trees were ever green, and the birds sang in every tree. Only with faith do they look upward and onward to a homo whose trees immortal, aud whose foundations can never be moved. Could the veteran fathers, the honored hus bands, or the brothers who are laid te rest in their suits of Kray, look back into this land of ours, surely they would feel that the highest monument that has been or ever can be raised to their memories* has already been raised in the bravo conduct of true Southern women, and future generations will yet see that the South arose to its truest of glory from the ashes of its dead heroes. Men of the South! whoso swords are iu their scab bards, whose arms are muffled, whoso banner is furled, ye are yet sentinels in this army. Fathers, husbands and brothers! glory in the women wbo are willing to share with you iu your daily toils, aud with the banner of honor shield them In all their trials. Politicians! guard well their homes and their rights; and ye who yield the pen of the land! by the lonely midnight watches of onr dead heroes, by tbe groaus of those who perished in prison, by the blood of those who counted not their lives, dear to preserve onr homes and honor; wo be seech you to guard the honor of Southern women; throw the mantle of charity over the erring ones and rather pierce a dagger Into yonr own hearts than bring tbeir names before tbo world in a dishonored manner. March on, brave army with the noiseless tread, no trump of victory will ever sound your praise, earthly laurels ever wreath your brows, but in that land where the voice of war is never heard, victor palms shall await you, and unfading crowns shall be yours.

I earnestly hope that you will endeavor to be present yourself, and I also take the liberty of asking you to have a strong delega tion present from yoar State, aud all other States which bound your State. I ask this because I do not know the proper persons in those States to address. Will you be kiud enough to forward to those States copies of this call, and urge them to be represented? I will forward you fifty copies for that purpose. Our meeting can and will consider your proposed Atlantic and Great Western Canal, and it will aid us in accomplishing and suc cessfully carrying out our plans for “cheap transportation.” The entire West and North west will be inlly represented, and it is our desire to have tbe entiie Southern States fully represented, also. We have no hobbies. “The greatest good to the greatest number” is what we aim to accomplish. I believe in improving all water routes, aud ie construction of a “ people’s line of rail- ON TO THE FRONT. The Rome Boys Send Their Machines Down.

On Inquiry as to what this meant, we found that tho advance guard of tba Rome Fire Department were pasting through the city on their way to Augusta. This advance squad, composed of Messrs.

Dr. ’Wills' Address to tile Young. A large congregation assembled at the First Presby-1 torlan Church last evening, to hear tho address of Rev. Dr. Wills to the youug of tho city. Tho dis course was profound, and yet eminently practical and pertinent in it* application, fully sustaining the reputation of its author. The utmost tuition was given, and perfoct silence observed during the delivery of the discourse, which attests its appreciation by thoso present. Want of space prevents us from giving a synopsis of it, but will the following, which is worthy te be inscribed in letters of gold, and in the mind and heart of every person, to show the character of the effort Said the Doctor: Every man who does his duty will have strong ene mies and stronger friends. No son of Adam can achieve a grand destiny but by a baptism of fire. It la through much tribulation that men are to cuter the higher kingdom of truth and love. Most of the conaurcs of tho world are altogether without force and effect. They aro the ebnlitious of peeeion, which subside in a moment, and not the sober utterances of reason which live ou from ago to age. Those who are bitterest in their cursos to day aro loudest iu their hosannahs to morrow. No man can be degraded but by his own act. II • who ia true to himself can troat with supreme con tempt the scoffs and sneers of a frowning world. All good and true men glory in tribulation for conscience •eke. Colored Fellows' Celebris4 Ion . ruorniAMMi: von tii* occasion. The colored members of tho Grand United Order ef Odd Fellows of this city will celebrate the annivortary of their order on Monday next, tbo twelfth iuntosL Tbe following to the order or exercises that will be observed: PROGRAMME. Grand United Order of Odd Follows. Star Of the South Lodge No. 1456 and St. James Lodge No. 1455 Will celebrate Monday, tho twelfth Instant. The respective lodges will form the processional tfce ledge room on Phachtroo straut at tal o’clock a. m., aad march through the prlucipal strode to Bethel Church, where addresses will be delivered by tho Rev. of Phtfodelphis, and other distinguished road ” that shall carry freight at cost. I do not wish to increase our civil service by hav ing the government control the railroads; but I think we can have a line of railroad govern ed by the people; and I think if the govern ment should appoint three commissioners to represent itself, anti each State through which the road passes appoint one, wo then would have a majority of State commissioners, and the government be still represented. 1 merely throw out these ideas to show that it is possi ble to have a “ people’s railroad,” managed by the people, and yet escape the centralization principle. We will undoubtedly meet with strong op position from the more conservative and eco nomical (?) class, who will cry out at tho great expenso that tho government And peo ple will be pot to, and tho corruption that would ensue by the government going into the railroad and canal business. To tbe first, I would say, while onr Western farmer is taxed three-fourths of his productions to carry the remaining quarter to market, it is simply nonsense to say, we, the people, cannot af ford to spend two or fonr hundred millions in transportation improvements. Why, if the whole population was taxed three dollars per capita, on our forty millions, it would be $120,000,000,^ sum much less than is now extorted trom them every year by our bloated railroad kings, who sit in their pala tial residences, control onr Legislatures, and corrupt our whole system ot government by their wholesale land grabbing operations and Credit Mobilier transactions. In relation to the corruption, we must see that none bat the tried aud true - ’ are entrusted with the man agement ami construction of these proposed new routes of transportation. So that there shall be no jobs in the work. Our meeting can be made of service to your assembly on the 20th proximo, and I would urge on you the necessity of having all yonr neighboring States folly represented. Please let me hear from you in relation to it, and if yon have a small map or outline of your proposed canal route, and any facts and figures in relation to it, I would thank you to forward some of them to me. Let us be a unit in this great question; let no party and no sectional jealousies interfere with tho success of our undertaking. I am, sir, very respectlully, It. H. Ferguson. Executive Department, State of Georgia, Atlanta, Ga., May 1, 1873. It. II. Ferguson, Esq., 'JVoy, Xeio York: Dear Sir Your kind favor ot the 19th u! timo, conveying an invitation to meet with you on tho Cth of May, has just reached mo, and I write without delay to thank j’ou for the honor you have done me. There is no question so important to the in terests of the whole country ns that of cheap transportation between the great producing and consuming sections, and no subject that can more properly claim the time and atten tion of those whom the people have entrusted with their confidence than the solution of this problem. To ensure our present and future prosper ity, we must have free commercial intercouse between the North, the West and the South and this can only he had by cheapening the cost of transportation, ’bo as to enable the producer iu each section to effect an ex change of products with his neighbors, and also to Recurc an outlet to tho markets of the countries for whatever surplns remains at fors that will leave a living profit on liis luiior. My own State and section are deeply in terested iu this movement, and I regret that your call reached me too late to admit the possibility of my being present in person, or by such a delegation as would probably rep resent the wishes of my people. I regret this the more in view of the kind expressions which yonr letter contains, and the indorse ment yon give to a project in which we are so deeply interested, and I assure you wo are ready to go with you, heart and hand, upon a question of such grand national importance, and one that will ensure mutual prosperity and advancement to all sections. We are well aware that the great need of your sec tion, os well as our own, is cheap transporta tion, and we are equally aware of the fact that this can bo secured only by lines of water communication. Nature has done much for us in this respect. Iu fact, it has already built tbe greater portiou of a direct line of water communication be tween the Mississippi river and Atlantic ocean through the State of Georgia. You will see, by looking at tho map, that the Ten nessee approaches near the Coosa, and that this river approaches, within a *few miles, tho water that flows into the Atlantic. Connect these navigable streams by canal and the work is done. We thns connect two great systems of inland navigation one of which permeates the great grain producing regions of the West, and the other, the cotton belt of the Southern States. Does it need an argu ment to show that a work of thiB nature would bo mutually beneficial ? Is it neces sary to explain that the increased production of cotton would benefit the manufacturers of the New England and Middle States, and ths consumers of cotton in the West? I agree with yon fully, that there is no ques tion now before the country of equal import ance with this, and I heartily second you in your patriotic desire that neither party ties nor sectional jealousies be suffered to interfere with or impede the successful prosecution of this grand undertaking. It wonld give me groat pleasure to see you at tho Convention on the 20th of May, accompanied by such a delegation as the Cth of May may select. I am, sir, very respectfully, Jambs M. Smith. ing his victims, Calien tried to strike young Bird, coming within an inch of his head with tbe axe/ 1 Bird said, “For God's sake, don’t kill me.” Cullen told him if he would swear that he would never tell he would spare his life. The boy promised, and Cullen com menced to take tbe previsions oat of the camp and then set the camp on fire. Swan- beck and Bird then made their way to Ball’s Mills, where they arrived at about eight o’clock this morning. Parties were immediately sent to scour the county in search of Cullen. Parties from Presque Isle, Maple!on and all the surround ing towns turned out armed and joined in the search. About four o’clock this afternoon a messen ger arrived from Ball’s Mills with tho news that Cullen was captuied. Cullen confessed the crime and said he was glad he had done it He was found in tho cellar of the house in Castle Hill where he lived. Ho said if they had let him alone, he was going to kill his wife and child to-night. When asked if he did the deed he said he did, and he in tended to have killed tho whole party, and was damned glad he murdered them. It is reported that he said he struck them with the axe and then cut their heads off. Mr. Granville A. Hayden was a young man much beloved by this community, where he has lived for many years. He leaves a wife and one child. He has been Deputy Sheriff of this county for a number of years, and wag one of tho most genial and popular men iu this section of the State, where he is ex tensively known and much respected. The community will feel his loss very much and deeply sympathize with hia widow and child, who by this villanousdeed have been deprived of an excellent husband and father. Mr. Thomas Hubbard was also a young man, who came to this county some ten years ago from St. Albaus, in this State. He lived at Chapman, and was unmarried. He was one of tbe best young men of that town, and lie will be missed by the community. The people are very excited at this unprovoked murder. Cnllen had not the slightest pretence for kill ing these men. There were no hard words, but everything was pleasant, and (hey went to sleep in perfect security. Tnis fiend in hu man shape, without giving them a moment’s warning, killed them, and then burned their bodies. Persons have just arrived here from the camp where this awful tragedy occurred, and state that they found the camp still on fire. Tho remains of poor Hayden andHubbaid were almost entirely consumed, there being about a handful of bones left of both bodies. The murderer stated that he dragged the vic tims after he had killed them and threw them into tbe fire and piled logs upon them.

Pbksque Isle, April 30, 1873 This morning news reached this town ol n horrible murder which look place last night at a camp about thirteen miles from here. Tho particulars, as near as I can learn at tho pres ent writing, are as follows: Last Saturday night the storo of David Dudley, at Ball s Mills, Mapleton, was brok en into and a small quantity of goods stolen. Suspicion rested upon oue James Cullen, who, as far as wo can learn, is a desperate follow who moved to this country some two years siuro from tho Province cf New Brunswiok. A warrant was issued and Granville A. Hay den, ol this village, who was Deputy Sheriff of tho county, went iu pursuit of him. Ho loft this village about 10 o’olock on Monday night, went to Ball's Mills, and the next day took two men with him, and started on mow shoes for a camp in the woods, soma six or seven miles from the Mills. Tho camp was the home of a man by tho name of Bwanbeck, and situated in Chapman plontatioo, Mr. Hayden arrived at tbo camp some time after dark, end fonnd James Cullen stopping with Bwanbeck. They retired to rest, intending to com* back to tbo Mills in tho morning. During tho night Cullen took an axe aud kill ed Hayden and Thomas Hubbard. There were two other persons in the camp—Mr. Swnnbeck and a young min by tbo name of Bird. Swaubock says he heard a crash, and lookittg lip, saw Cullen striking Harden and then Bublxrrd. Ho jumped from the camp and made his'escape to the woods.
