THE LADIES OK COVINGTON AMU THE
LATE MISS EBERHAttT.
We have received a charming letter from a
coterie of tea-drinkers in Covington, touching
upon the case of Mus Eberhart, which we
present below.
Scarcely ever, vre guess, was a more diplo
matic epistle written; scarcely ever was golden
pen dipped by more strategic hands into
vialed ink; certainly, never was the subtle
aroma of flattery distilled in and tfaronghont
a more effective attack upon an nnfortanate
Governor:
Covinotok, Ga., May 18, 1873.
To the Editors or the Herald:
Dear 8nt—The execution of Miss Eber
hart forms the sole topic of conversation
among all classes. The men are gen
erally disposed to denounce Gov. Smith as a
* * demagogue'' who has made a mistake in
playing “a card;'' some say be is a tyrant,
who is made such by the force of circum
stances. The ladies of this section must
have something to say, for when yon editors
make such a to-do over a matter of this kind,
in which onr sex is concerned, we are ob
liged to have onr feelings excited if ws raid
the papers which onr husbands
bring home. Well, lost night several
lady friends were discussing Miss
l'.herhart's execution, and out of the five
piesent only one was on the Governor’s side.
We had the Herald before us, bat after all
we were not satisfied. So that we have con
cluded to ask yon the following questions, to
answer for ns in the next Sunday Herald:
1. Did, or did not, the jury who found Miss
Eberhart gnilty petition the Governor for her
reprieve ? and did they, or did they not, say
in that petition that they had reason to be
lieve she was found guilty by a swim state
ment made to them, which they afterward be
lieved was untrue ?
2. Did not the whole community—min
isters, lawyers, doctors, farmers, mer
chants and all—implore the Governor
to reprieve the poor creature, on the ground
that if gnilty she was only an unicilling accom
T
3d. Is it a fact that nnless the girl was con
victed of her charged crime, the men who
arrested her could not get the award offered
for her, and was there an award offered sepe-
rate from Spann ?
If yon will answer these questions, you will
oblige five ladies of Covington who as yet
have formed No Opinion.
“There were five of ns and only one of us
took sides with the Governor." What a ter
rible extremity for the Governor. Four femi
nine tongues, rattling with feminine fierce
ness, and all devoted to freighting the air
with romances against this much-to-be pitied
man, who let “one of onr sex" hang ! Four
rosy months all pouting in anger, four pairs
of eyes flashing indignation, four pairs of
ears drinking in the dainty diatribes, eight
pink little fists brandished madly in the air,
and eight nervons fingers sighing for a waltz
t hroogli the Governor's hair.
While we pity the unfortunate “one of ns”
who “took aides with the Governor," and
weep at her agony in being forced to ait in
unaccustomed silence, and only get in one
word edgeways in each half hour, and in being
smothered, as it were, under four duplicates
of herself, we must decline risking anything
in her behalf. We are not yet ready to
die. We have'nt made our will. We are
not strong, anyhow. We won’t answer
these questions. There isn't enough
money in Georgia to entice ns
into this row. We wouldn’t mind
taking the place of the man in the circus who
pats his head in the lion’s month, and lets
the elephant promenade over his body ; bnt
as to expressing an opinion on this subject, we
must decline. History won’t permit us to
answer the questions as our fair correspond
ents evidently wish us to answer; and out
love of peace won’t permit ns to answer them
the other way. Apply to some more har
dened sinner than we are, ladies, or same
incantions young writer, and you may get the
information you desire. We really don’t re
member anything about it.
Burr and Hadame Jumel.
AARON burr's STYLE OF LOVE-MAKING AND OF
MAERTING OFF-HAND—AN OBEDIENT WIFE.
A New York letter says: Most of yonr
readers have noticed the “Madame Jumel
case,” which has been in litigation so long in
the United States Courts. Bat many of them
may not be aware that this Madame Jnmel
was at one time the wife of Aaron Burr. She
liecame his wife in a very extraordinary way.
After his return from Europe in his old age, a
disgraced and dreaded man, Madame Jnmel,
then perhaps fifty years of age, called at
tho oftice on Nassan street, in great
style tor those days, with her car
riage and liveried servants, to consult
him, as the best authority in New York, con
cerning her real estate, which was very ex
tensive. Burr treated her with courtesy, of
which he was a perfect master, and plied to
his utmost his arts of compliment and flattery,
through which he had snared so many vic
tims. Madame Jnmel, according to the cus
toms of the times, had been very superficially
educated, and was the more easily doped by
such a roan as Burr. She was accompanied
bv her nephew, in whose interest Barr at once
manifested the most lively concern. Tho two
were flattered and fascinated. After a few
weeks Burr, tbongh then nearly or quite
eighty years of age, made a proposal of mar
riage to the wealthy widow. He was relnsed.
He manifested none of the mortifications of a
jilted swain, bnt went on with bis suit as if
nothing had happened.
Madame Jumel was astonished and bowildrr-
ed at such love making. At last ha drove np
to her door one fine morning, bringing a cler
gyman with him aDd declared that he had
efitne to be married. Madame waa directed
to prepare herself without any unnecessary
delay at the toilet, aad, fairly overborne by
mingled courtesies and commands, she at last
stood np by the aile of her ancient bean and
spoke the lata! words, while every door and
window was crowded with the laces of the
wondering household servants. Barr tbas
became master of an immense amount of
property, with a lady thrown in. They
started at once on a wedding trip to
Hartford, Connecticut Madame was the
owner of several shares in a
bridge, which wa* then regarded
a wonderful investment. The stock wa* in
great demand. Barr persuaded her to sell it,
and when the proceeds were brought to her
she said, with true wifely submission: “Give
it to my husband !” The tradition is that
Burr staffed the bulky package of bills into
his pocket and sewed them in, or got hie wife
to. On his return to New York he coolly de
posited the money to his own account in the
I tank, and soon after invested it in the loooli-
ty of his early dreams of treason and conquest,

IL Yermilga, of Mew York city. J. K. Moorehead, of
Pittsburg, and Dr. Nicolla, are reported on overtures
from tbe different Presbyteries on various subjects,
among which was an overture from tbe Prebbytery of
Baltimore, requesting the Assembly to affirm the doc
trine of the church as to civil magistrates, and the re
lation of church and state, and an overture from the
Praebytsry of Austin. Tezae, suggesting some action
designed to conciliate the Southern church and if pos
sible prepare the way to remove at an early day theee
two overtures, are considered together, and the com
mlttee recommended the adoption of the solemn dec
laration in substance as follows:
First—The view of this reunion of the two branches
of Presbyterian churches in the North, neither of
which was responsible for the conduct of the other,
end all action before the reunion, touching the South
ern Assembly or the Old School Synod of Missouri, is
now noil snd void.
Second—The Assembly expresses confidence in the
soundness of the doctrines and Christian character of
these bretht ren, and hopes a more intimate communi
cation will tend to remove barriers that time has es
tablished between us and them.
Third—With regard to civil magistrates snd the re
lations of Church and State—the set forth declara
tions contained in the Confession of Fsith snd tbe
form of government of the Church.
Foerth—Recommend the appointment of two com
mittees to confer with similar committees from'the
General Assembly of the Cnnrch, South, and the Old
School Synod of Missouri.
The report and recommendations were unanimously
adopted.
The President appointed the following collectors of
customs to-day: Warren Bush at St. Marks, and John
Scott at St. Johns, Florida.
President Grant has directed that all the Depart
ments be dosed on the 30th, when the graves of the

Gen. Sherman to-day: “Davis reports s fight with the
Indians on the 10th inst, in which the Indians were
whipped snd ran awsy. The mounted troops who

Albany, May 31, 1873.
The Baptist anniversary meeting has continued its
session to-day at the Missionary Union. A resolution
was adopted to increase tbe force to India by sending
out ten new missionaries. Collections are to be taken
np from all chnrvliea to meet the expenses of that
purpose, also for paying the present deficiency of
forty-two thousand dollars. A proposition to modify
the Constitution of tbe missionary union as to the
term of membership was reported against and the
report agreed to. The report of the borne mission was
read, giving much satisfaction. The receipts in 18C3
for missionary work amounted to thirty thousand dol
lars, and for 1873 to one hundred and four thousand
six hundred and twelve.
The Women’s Baptist Missionary Society met with
closed doors, not even their husbands being admitted.
It is learned, however, that their receipts for the year

for which office M. Martel, the avowed supporter of M.
Theirs, was nominated by the Left Two ballots
wars taken, without result. On the third

Although close, the vote is a decided reverse for the

Important Law Suit.—Litigation of great
importance to persons holding bonds issued
by towns and counties in behalf of railroad
enterprises is now going forward in tho
United States Court for the Western District
of Missouri.
■Forty-five different suits have been brought
against towns and connties of that State for
interest on bonds issued in aid of railroads,
which the authorities of these towns and
oounties seek to repudiate; and there is
but one suit against Johnson county,
arising from an issue of $100,000 nor
mal school bonds, the legality of
which is contested. Thr county of
Henry is sned for $204,000 in two suits by
A. H. Nicola;, President of the Board of
Brokers in this city, and the whole amount
involved in the pending litigation will reach
nearly two millions of dollars. There are now
two suits against Cass county for $355,000, of
which $55,000 is a portion of what is known
as the bloody bonds, being of the same issue
as those which led to the tragedy at Gunn
City, where two or three persons were killed
by sn armed mob.
An interesting qaegtioa to bo determined
is whether an innocent holder of bonds is en
titled to recover when the circumstances of
their issue are such that they would be in
valid in the hinds of the original holders.
Nearly all the plaintiffs in these cases are per
sons living in other State-,, who would couie
under the classification of innocent holders,
as they bought the bonds in good faith, know-
ng nothing af any fraud in their issue, even
if such fraud existed.—-V. Y, Sun.

He thus addresses the assembled Legisla
ture—three-fourths of whom are negroes:
You have entered upon the sixth session
of the General Assambfy since the establish
ment of free government in South Carolina.”
Governor Moses proceeds to enumerate the
fruits which a carpet-bag scalawag fires gov
ernment has brought to the people:
“Yet the face of the emigrant is turned
away from our State, and capital, which sots

IN MEMORIAM.
DIt. JAMES C. AVARY.—" Dr. Avary is very rick,”
fell like * death knel! upon every family iu DeKalb
county within the range of his practice; for we all
knew how severely he had been laboring for weeks be
fore, and had for some time been apprehensive of the
effect of such incessant work upon his not very strong
health. Each day the news of his condition was anx-
ionsiy sought after. “How is Dr. Avary?” was re
peated on the cars and in the streets, and each day the
news grew worse, until the sad Intelligence waa made
kuown that our dear friend was dead. We then began
to feel how great was onr loss, and every family of the
neighborhood mourned as for one of their own nutn*
her. Dr. Avary was near to all of us—even our little
ones called him “ my doctor,” and when he entered
the house, they would climb Into Lis lap and fondle
him with tender affection. The earnestness with
which ho was requested to prolong his professional
visits actually embarrassed him In his practice; for
our families were never more pleased thau when they
could prevail on him to remain. Is it any wonder,
then, that the borrow is so great and universal, as
when we realize that we shall no more ace his kind
face and receive his attentive ministrations when sick
ness afflicts us V We can truly affirm that we have
never known a good man called away whose death
elicited such sincere and tender regret among all
classes, from childhood to age.
Dr. Avary was born in Columbia county, the 14th
flay of October, 1818, and was consequently fifty-four
years, months and days old when he died.
He studied medicine iu his native county with Dr.
Harrison, and, in the spring of 1841, he commenced a
course of lectures at the Augusta Medical College, and
graduated in the spring of 1843. Soon after his ma
triculation he located at Wrightsboro, where he con
tinued the practice of his profession until 1851, except
for the short period that he was in the Legislature,
during the Mssion of 1849. He was not a politician in
any sense of the word, but was nominate! and elected
by the unanimous desire and request of his constitu
ents, without opponent. His course in the Legisla
ture was suck as to stilt further Increase their confi
dence, and he was again solicited to become a candi
date. but declined, owing to a determination he had
formed to remove to Tennessee. He soon afterwards
carried out this purpose by removing to Chattanooga,
where he remained for two years as a merchant. In
1853 lie moved back to Georgia and settled in DeKalb
county, and commenced farming In connection with
his practice. He was quite successful, and very soon
obtained a very extensive practice. When Mr. Lin
coln was elected, and South Carolina had seceded, and
the excitement reached Georgia, very soon parties
were formed, and the greatest bitterness between Se
cessionists and Union men prevailed. Dr. Avary. who
was always earnest and decided in his convictions,
was fully persuaded that it would be very unwise for
Georgia to go out of the Union, and did all in his
power to prevent what he regarded as a public calam
ity. His counsels, however, did not prevail, and he
saw his native State arrayed with South Carolina in a
determination to resist the Government with armB.
Like a true patriot, he did not hesitate as to his duty,
and from the day that this resolve of Georgia was
formed until the close of the bitter struggle, there were
none more true than he. He was not one to reproach
his fellow-citizens for differing with him in opinion,
but choerfully gave all ho had to the common cause.
When tho war ended, like thousands of others, he
found himself with a largo family and nothing but
his land. He therefore found it necessary to return
to his profession with renewed effort, and removed to
Decatur, where he continued to reside until his death.
Dr. Avary came of a noble family. His father,
Archer Avary, was a native of Virginia, and removed
to Georgia when the Doctor was a child, and settled in
Columbia county, twoaty miles above Augusta, on the
Savannah river. Here he rapidly acquired the confi
dence of the people, and represented his District in
the Senate for a number of years, and when he died,
was still a member of the Senate, having bat a short
time before been elected. Archer Avary was a good
man, and left to his son the inheritance of a good
name, which those who knew Dr. Avary can truly say
he never stained; for, in all tbe relations of life, he
lived and died without reproach. Asa citizen, he was
patriotic and public-spirited, with an integrity of
character which he guarded as a pearl above riches or
distinction. As a Christian, his long membership of
the Methodist Church boars only the memory of love
and forbearance. As a Mason, he strived to do good,
and governed his conduct by that rule which endeav
ors to do to others as we would have them do to us.
It is, however, in his private relations as husband and
father that his character was so beautiful and gentle.
Loving and true as a husband—firm, yet amiable and
indulgent as a parent—his loss can only be appreciated
by those to whom he sustained those tender relations.
If he was so dear to us who only knew him as friend,
how much more so to those of his own household.
There is a crown for those who die in harness, and
surety our friend has gone to receive it—for, to the
last moment that he was able to walk, he was at the
post of labor and of duty.
He is gone; but we trust that the lesson which such
a life teaches will not go unheeded, bnt be deeply on*
graven on onr hearts, and sanctify our souls to strive
that our lives may be like his, and at death that we
may leave with characters both honored and regretted.
