Athens, Juce 6, 1873. R. Ware diet] this evening at five A SERIOUS ROMANCE. Two or three school girls here are quite sick from swallowing heartsease flowers. Their romance was, that whenever they swallowed one of these flowers whole, and then expressed a wish, they would have it gratified. Prussic acid in the floweis made them quite sick. The romance was voted a humbug. H. W. G. THE FUNERAL. OF MRS. CLAYTON—ILLNESS OF UR. WARE—NEW STORES—A GOOD AND BRILLIANT HUM—AN EXCITING ELECTION—OTHER ELEC TIONS, ETC., ETC. Correspondence of the Herald. Athens, June 4, 1873. Athens lost yesterday its oldest, and one of its most respected and esteemed residents, Mrs. Julia Clayton, tbs wife of the late Hon. Angustin S. Clayton. She died fall of peace and happiness, with her life, not snapped off in the half-way of its completeness, hut rounded into full and absolute perfection. She died, not as the gTeen and full leaves of spring die, when they arc torn, jagged and bleeding, from their branches by some rnde storm, and whirled about in its mad caprices; but died as the placid leaves of autumn die, when, having worked up the whole labor of their lives, tilled every purpose of their des tiny and ripened into soberness and calm, they part gently from the old tree and cast themselves fall of hope and faith on God’s zephyrs, to be carried where he listeth. Her death cast a gloom over the whole of older Athens. Gray headed old men who, when she was young, were with her and loved her, sat in the funeral church bowed down in sorrow. Venerable matrons, lull of years and honors, sat there and wept over one who half a century ago had held the key of their young hearts, and smiled or sighed upon their loves and labors. And all tbe old vete rans in tbe town wended their slow steps to tbe charch where the nreaclier, bending over the coffin of one of .their number, was to tell to them the jojfoi story of their own release and redemption. The families of Dr. Wo. King, of Athens, who had married her youngest and best be loved child, of Mr. W. W. Clayton, of Atlan ta, and Mr. E. P. Clayton, of Augusta, made a procession of mourners in which great- grand-children, *who could scarce lisp her name, joined in paying this the last tribute of love. The pail-bearers were Dr. K. D. Moore, Dr. Henry Hull, Mr. Ferdinand Phin- izy, Mr. James C&rleton, Mr. Stevens Thomas, Mr. Peter Summey, Mr. Y. S. G. Harris and Mr. F. W. Lucas. The servicos were read by our beloved pastor, Mr. Josiah Lewis, and some tonebing and eloquent remarks were made npon the character of the deceased by Rev. Mr. Speer. The funeral music was inexpressibly sweet and well selected. The “Rock of Ages” and “Jesus, Lover of My Souk” as sung by Mrs. J. Wallace Brumby and Mr. E. E. Jones, brought tears to nearly every eye in the house, and was simply matchless in its melody, and imperial in its pathos. Thus passed away and thus was buried a good woman, who tor sixty years had been a member of the Methodist Church, and for nearly ninety years a beloved and honored resident of Athens. ANOTHER OLD VETERAN LOW. Dr. Edward Ware, a prominent citizen, and for many years a director of the Georgia Railroad and intimately connected with the first affairs of the State, is lying quite low. It is very doubtful if he will live throughout the day. ATHENS IS IMTROVING very much indeed. Mr. S. C. Dobbs, Messrs. England «fc Orr, and Messrs. Center A Reaves are all erecting new and handsome brick stores on the bill, just at tbe foot of Broad street. These are all reliable and good mer chants that would be an honor to any commu nity. BY THE WAT, if ever a roll of honor of the best merchants of Georgia is prepared, Messrs. Center A Reaves (alluded to above) will stand among the topmost of the list. They are yonng men, scarcely in the prime of life, and at the close of tbe war were not worth twenty-five dollars between them. Mr. Center borrowed twenty- five dollars in cash from Messrs. Homer A Haas, two worthy silversmiths, and buying a few apples, some tobacco, etc., and renting a counter in Homer A Haas’ store, commenced his race in life. Mr. Reaves, we believe, star ted as a clerk at a small salary. After awhile they united and renting a single room in a large three story block they commenced busi ness. In less than five years they possessed the whole of the block, and filled every room, had built an immense warehouse, owned near ly forty thousand dollars worth of rm 1 estate, built npa business of nearly half a million a year, and are known as “gilt edged” in every commercial mart in America. In the face of such a success as this, there is no excuse for any man desponding or be coming depressed. All things that have been done may be done again. GENERAL OOflBSF. THE MODOCS.

WHAT THE PEOPLE OF OPE LIKA THINK. THE COTTON CLAIMS. Important Decision by the Secretary of the Treasury—Rigid Construction of the Law—More Legislation Necessary— Not Adverse to Cl&imunts. Opelika, June 6, 1873. The Court met pursuant to adjournment, at nine o’clock this morning, when the prosecu tion announced that their testimony was clos ed for the present. opening of the defense. Counsel for tbe defense claimed a surprise at the closing of tbe case for the prosecution, and asked till two o’clock to get up their wit nesses and prepare for the examination, which was granted them. THE EVIDENCE. At two o'clock the examination for the de fense was begun, and Dunbar, McCullough, Hobbard, Baker, Martin, and Abrams, were examined. Their testimony was merely col lateral, and not bearing immediately upon the case. The principal portion of it referred to circumstances testified toby Mr. Allen for the prosecution. T. J. B. Washington, Jane 6, 1873. The law directing tbe Secretary of the Treasury to pay the net proceeds of cotton unlawfully seized after Jane 30th, 1865, was approved May 18th, 1873, and re quired that ail petitions should be filed within six months thereafter, or on or before November 18th, 1873, Many petitions which bad been duly signed and sworn and placed in the mail before November 18th did not reach Washington until after that date. They were, however, sent to the Secretary of the Treasury and received as of date. When received, in reply to inquiry and argument of the point involved, whether in two important cases so plead, the petitions would be regarded as filed in time, the Secretary has given the following decision: Treasury Department, Washiegton, D. C., June 4,1873. J. Madison Cults, Esq., Attorney of S. D. Henderson* el aL % Washington, D. C.: Sir—I have received your letter of May 24th ult., requesting to be informed whether tho claims of S. D. Henderson and Lucy A. Hopkins, filed by yon as at torney on the 22d day of November, 1872, under the provisions of the act of May 18th, 1872, will be consid ered as filed within the time limited therein, namely: within six months after the passage the art. In answer, I say that, after careful consideration of the subject, and of the matters suggested in your letter, 1 am of the opinion that no petition or claim under the act which was not received in the Treasury Department on or before the 18th day of November, 1872, can be regarded at hav ing been filed within six months after the passage of the act, and that any such claim received in the de partment after November 18th, cannot be considered by the Secretary of the Treasury. Respectfully. Wm. A. Richardson, Secretary of the Treasury. It is the opinion of the best informed lawyers here that the time for filing petitions both in collector cases before the Secretary, and for stores and supplies be fore the Commissioners of Southern Claims, it will, undoubtedly, be extended by the next Congress. The above decision furnishes a strong argument in favor of ?ach extension in cotton cases, as six months, given by the s'stnte, has manifested too short a time to enable Southern claimants, exercising all dilligcnce and dispatch, to file their petitions, is to be ob served that the Southern Claims Commission did re ceive petitions which reached them after March 3* 1873, provided they had been mailed, signed and sworn before that date, whenever the time for filing peti tions before them expired, but their decisions are not final, they are reported to Congress. The Secretary being authorized to pay money on his own decision decided to follow the more rigid construction oi the statute. His decision is not adverse to the inter ests of cotton claimants since it will involve and al most compel the farther legislation which will be sought. Opelika, Ala., June 6, 1873. To the Editors of the Herald: We propose only to communicate briefly the progress of tbe Hooper-Phillips trial. The prosecution, being satisfied of case made out, have rested, after having examined two witnesses, addition to those whose testimony is al ready published. The case is now before Chancellor McCraw and Circuit Judge Strange, and the trial will proceed ou the defense at two p. m. to-day. No new testi mony of material interest elicited up to this time. We look for some interesting develop ments, from the host of witnesses called for the defendant Will post you in regard thereto, as the case progresses. Very much interest is manifested on both sides, but tLe weight of public sentiment is decidediy in favor of the State. The Herald seems to be sustained by the fact that it is hourly increasing its list of subscribers in this city. An array of attorneys are on either side of the case, among whom is our friend Colonel Bart Thrasher, of Atlanta, for the prosecution. He is gaining the good opinion of the entire community. Burney, your irrepressible agent, is here working up” the Herald’s interest. The people anxiously await the arrival ot your paper, and many who are not able to take a paper watch every chance to ask “are you through with the Herald?” More anon, Numa. Another correspondent writes: • * * I want you to speak right out boldly, as the virtue and intelligence of this city—everybody, in short, but Radicals and employed counsel for the defense—are with you in your fearless publication of the facts. Will Alderman Dodd inform ns what he thinks will be the result if the cholera comes here, while the city is in its present sanitary condition ? Will Alderman Mecasiin rise and explain to his constituents why it is that nothing has been done towards getting water works for Atlanta? THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. The First Reception of MacJIahon a Biil- liant Affair. The trade of Athens, it is said, is larger this season by sixty per cent than it aver was be fore.

At an exciting election last night for (he "champion fireman" of the Pioneer Hook and I .adder Company, Mr. i. R. Taimadge was tbe successful candidate. He only beat his brother, Mr. C. O. Taimadge, one rote, and it is said that Mr. Gantt, the editor of the North east Georgian, before deciding abont his vote, with that weighty aegacity that has always distinguished him, pot the names of these brothers (the leading candidates! in a hat, and jostling them np, voted the one which fell up permost. It chanced that “J. E.” instead of fell into the prophetic fist of Mr. (fiantt, and thus fame fell by a chance. Tbe „ brothers by their superb race show yd .pfcnly in what high estimation they were held, and it affords me pleasure to say that they deserve it all.

Important Case Decided in Baltimore—Ver dict for the Plaintiff—What Consti tutes Proof of a Man’s Death. Baltimore, June •. 1873. In the United States Circuit Court, this morning, the jury in the esse of Eliza M. Goss against the New Turk Mutual Life Insurance Company to recover $5,000. a life policy issued by defendant, on the life of plaintiff's husband, returned {a verdict for the fall amount for plaintiff. It was alleged thas W. S. Goss, husband of plaintiff, was burned to death in his work shop, near this city, in February, 1872, while experi menting to find a substitute for India rubber, at the time of which the shop was entirely consumed, and the body of the man taken from the wreck with his limbs and face burned off, but the chest and head preserved. Goss had policies of his life in the New York Mutual Insurance Company for five thousand dollars, issued in 1868, in the Continental Life Insurance Company for $5,000, in the Knicktrbocker for $5,000, and in the Traveller’s Insurance Company for $10,000. Payment was re fused on tbe ground that the death of Goss had not been proved; that the body found after the fire was so mutilated that it could not be recognized that it was the body of Goss, and there was reason to sus pect fraud. Suit was then brought against the Mutual Life Insurance Company, so as to test the case, and tbe verdict rendered as above. The case was on trial eight days, before Judge Bond. Plaintiff and defendant were represented by the ablest counsel and the other companies had counsel present during the trial. A number of medical and dental experts were examined as witnesses. Motion for s new tris was entered. NEW YORK NOTES. A Good Sentence—Dissolved—After the Jobs—West Point Graduates—The Yacht Race—Wall Street—Precautions Against Cholera. New York, June 0, 1873.

He Dies Unconfessing and Un repentant. Latatxtte, Alabama, via. Wist Point, June G, 1873. In January last the people of Chambers county, Alabama, were startled by the an nouncement that a white man named Wood- sen Allen had been murdered by a negro called Squire Brooks. TEIAL AND CONVICTION. The murderer was arrested, and at the last term of the oonrt was convicted of murder in the first degree, after a fair and impartial trial, and sentenoed to be hanged to-day. No ef forts that I am aware of, were made to obtain a pardon, or even a commatation of bis sen tence. HARDENED. Accordingly, to-day tbe dread sentence of the conrt was carried into effect. Although asked so to do, the prisoner declined to make any confession of bis crime, and the reasons that impelled him to it. While standing on the scaffold he wore a reckless smile, and seemed perfectly indifferent to his impendiog fate. HANGED. After the preliminary ceremonies were gone through,,Squire Brooks was launched into eternity. His contortions and writhings after he fell were perfectly terrible, and lasted for several minutes. Abont three thousand persons witnessed the spectacle. M. E. It. MASSACHUSETTS. Nkw York, June 6, 1873. Cotton quiet but steady; sales 1,913 bales; uplands Orleans 19>«.
