also that on the 6th instant, having become dissatisfied,

ism baa existed between the two biaoches
of Tsmplars referred to, which we trust will subside
and be lost sight of in a vigorous effort t> educate
against, and wean over from, intemperance. The
chief distinction between the two orders, as we un
derstand, consists in this, that whereas the I O. G. T.
require a perpetual pledge and that to a total absti
nence from all alcoholic spirits, the friends of tem
perance exact only a temporary p’.edge and except
from its operation the drinkieg of wine, cider and
light drinks. Not professing, however, to be experts
in ths exposition of tbe doctrines of either branch,
we dismiss tbe subject with tbe item sf news which

To the Editors of the Herald:
North Alabama, generally so free from crime]
recorded in its history now, one of the most painful,
bloody and terrible tradedie* that has ever occurred in
this section. At Mooresvilie, in Limestone county,
a few days ago, John Cooley shot and instantly killed
his step-mother, Mrs. Elizabeth Conley, a noble and
true woman— one who was held in high esteem, and
mr.cb loved by all who knew her. This awful deed
was committed in the presence of the sged father of
the murderer. The old man is over seventy years of
age, sad was powerless to defend his beloved wife.
John was his only son, and now that he has disinher
ited bias, and had him ironed in jail, tbe o!d roan is
left alooe—wifeless and so a toss.
The mmderer now awaits the jnst Invocation of the
law. in a felon’s cell of the Athens jsil. No reason is

On entering the Recorder’s court room yesterday
m rnirg we were surprised to find the judge’s stind
groaning under its heavy weight. What a spectacle
we beheld! What a court exercising judicial inac
tions ! What an immense ingathering of avoirdupois!
Reader, be not astounded, as you are yet to learn the
same things, and that without going where we went
or seeing what we saw. What we are about to relate
concerning the presence of throe certain gentlemen, in
connection with their meat extraordinary deportment,
was superinduced by the prevalence of cholera in
Southern cities and the sanitary condition of
Atlanta and the timely recommendations and sugges
tions of A. J ocularis, M. P. For months past the
Police Court has been recognised as ft favorite resort
for visitors, especially from ft distance, and as the
actings and doings of oar people as exhibited there
penetrate the remotest sections of civilization, the
city authorities wera exceedingly desirous that no
erroneous impression should obtain in reference to
the cholera- It wss accordingly determined to prevail
upon the Recorder to be absent oa\ this occasion,
and procure for the purpose of adminlstsrlng justice
on this occasion three men, whose physique and
health should truly represent thii ef Jour people
general, and as the patients of
Dr. Jocularis were preferred, those excellent gentle
men who bad been seen practicing the exercise con
tained in the Dr.'a article, to-wit: Aldermen Brother-
ton, McDuffie and Bob Tomng, were called in. When
wc assert that this is the heaviest court that ever
presided In that room the fact is apparent to all ac
quainted with these eminent jurists. The following
the avoirdupois : Brotberton, 220 lbs.; McDuffie,
200, and Bob Young, 180—total 600 lbs., more than a
fourth of a ton. Young aat in the canter of the trio
and administered the oaths to the witnesses. Broth-
erton on Young’s right and examined the witnesses,
while McDuffie made himself useful ss general
superintendent of the concern, laying on
fines, etc. A short juggle generally produced what
they were pleased to call the “opinion of the Coart,”
which opinion was written in a bold hand on the
docket by the chosen scribe, Bob. T.
near by with an efficient smile on his
in his power to render the Court comfortable. Before
tbe supply of fans, block ice, lemonade, etc., was ex
hausted, s light shower of rain came up which bad a
salutary effect in “keeping them cool.” The result
of the first consultation was a determination to im
mortalize the Court by assessing a fine of twenty dol
lars and costs against Peter Tolbert for being found
disorderly and nsing profane language. This they
did, but whether tbe fine would
h avebeen levied if Peter bad come up of hia own
volition is a question. Perhaps the offense consisted
not in devilment, bat in being caught at it These
gentlemen had all been reared in the country, and re
membered bow, when small boys and in tbe dally
receipt of three whippings from their fathers, they
had captured the blue, jay, snow, and that interesting
bird tbe turtle; so they talked over anti-manhood and
Judge days and decided to refresh themselves by
catching a bird on this occasion. Fannie Bird,
charged with being drunk, disorderly and disturbing
citizens, was therefore brought forward and it appear
ing from the testimony that ths offenses placed on
tbe docket on a horizontal line with her name ware
established, sho was fined five dollars snd costs, which
last inclined us to the opinion that aba caught it.
Alice Wright was also fined five and costa for being-

F. M. Dunbar, having been sworn, deposeth
as follows: l am acquainted wi h J. H. Al
len. My iffcolleetiou is that he was working
at my house from the 1st to Ibo 9th of April.
I think he commenced on the 1st and worked
until the 9th day of April. It was raining on
the 9th day of April. I employed Mr. Allen
to build me a negro house. He commenced
on the 1st day of April. He tore down the
house, moved it to another pari of the yard
and put it up. I don’t remember the exact
time when he finished. Ho worked at my
hoose on the 9th; he was working by the job;
it was situated in the Tear of my residence; I
live almoit north of this. I dou’t know
where Mr. Adams’ house is; it must be at
least a mile to Green’s fish pond; dou’t thick
Mr. Allen was absent from my house as much
as one day—Sunday excepted—between the
1st and 9th of April; the 9lh was election day
and it rained tolerable hard; it rained so hard

in tbe house, or bedsteads; think.it mined in

side tbe comt house; don’t remember its rain
ing Tuesday night. I am acquainted with
John D. Hooper; suppose I have kuown him
about two years; think I know his general
character for peace and morality; that charac
ter is good so far as I know. I am not ac
quainted with Miss Barnett; think I know the
general estimate of her character in this com
munity; it is good so far as I know; I know
but little of her character; have seldom heard
her name mentioned; Itpeak oi April, 1873.
Mr. Allen's Dame is J. H. Allen, I think; his
occupation that of carpenter.
The identity of the man is admitted as be
ing the same one who was sworn as a witness
in behalf of the State.
CROSS EXAMINED.
I have lived here since 1865; have known
Mr. Allen 18 months or two years; he com
menced work at my house tbe 1st of April, I
think; I havo no memoranda as to the date
he commenced; am fully satisfied it was on
tbe 1st of April; 1 have made efforts within
three or four hours to find out when. Mr. Al
len commenced work at my house, having
been informed I would be placed on the stand.
I found that on the fourth of April I paid Mr.
Allen $3.25 on the contract; the work was
done by contract. This was tbe4th of April;
was to pay him $10; think he had torn down
the house when I paid him this amount; he
finished my house all but the saddle boards
on the 9th. I do business here; usually go
home to dinner, but did not on the 9lh. Mr.
Allen was at my bouse every day between the
1st and the9th, except Sunday; he could not
have been absent two days without ray know
ing it; have doubts only so far as to my be
ing positive; would not slate positively that
he was there all day, every day he was there;
saw him there every morning during the nine
days, Sunday excepted. Mr. Allen told me
he bod a negro employed a portion of the
time to help him. The negro helped to tear
down the house, but not to rebuild. Tbe
tearing down was commenced on the 1st and
completed on the 2d of April; the 1st I thiuk
was Tuesday. Mr. Allen might have left my
house after I left in the morning without my
knowledge; my impression is I saw him every
day. The work was going on every day from
the 1st to the 9th, except Sunday. I left
home in the morning about seven o’clock;
the work went on every day and there was no
one else to do^it. I go home usually about
dusk, to supper.
RE-EXAMINED.
It was contract work: know Mr. Hooper’s
character for peace and morality; he is a
B tactnbJe young man; have known Mr.
ooper eighteen months or two years; mean
his character was peaceable up to the time of
this difficulty. F. M. Dunbar.
Buck McCullough having been sworn, de-
posetb as follows r
I am acquainted with Joel Allen; I was at
work at Mr. Dunbar’s about the fcth of April;
Mr. Allen was there that day at work; this was
I think on Tuesday, the day before the elec
tion; I was not at work on the 9 th; it was
raining so that I did cot go to woik; I don’t
know where Mr. Allen was that day; Mr. Al
ien was putting up a kitchen; 1 think the
house was weatlier-boarded and shingled; I
think he was laying (he floor on the 8th; I
don’t know how long Mr. Allen had been to
work there; I saw him there on Monday the
7th; he was weather-boaTding the house that
day; there was a negro helping him; the ne
gro was named Giles; am not positive about
the day of the month, I saw Mr. Allen there
at work on Monday and Tuesday previous to
the election ; I think the negro lives on J. J.
Green’s lot.
(.'BOSS-EX A MIN EU.
I suppose I stayed there about half au hour
on Monday; 1 think it was about eight a. m. ;
Mr. Allen I think worked there pretty much
all day Tuesday ; he may have come to town;
the negro worked there Monday morning and
Tuesday; on Tuesday they put the floor in;
the honse was up when I went there to bnild

small nonsc, and Mr. Allen, when he got it
stated that it was to build Mr. Dunbar's
kitchen. I did not at that time learn

tbe Government notifies ihe Governors of tho asvsrsl

Il think the average depth of the cut, com-

You can see a man irom the brickyard cross

Lyman W. Martin, having been sworn,
deposeth as follows: I was at the place to
day that Mr. Baker spoke of; Col. Hooper
was with me; J. J. Green overtook us going
out; we overtook Mr. Adams at Yonge’s Lake
and he went with us; Mr. Baker and another
man came up after we got theie; Col. McCoy
also went with us; T weut at the solicitation
of Col. Hooper to ascertain if persons'passing
in the cut conversing could be heard by per
sons passing on the dirt road; I think* Mr.
Adams and myself first walked up and down
the cut talking, while Cols. Hooper and
McCoy and Mr. Green remained on the dirt
road; Mr. Baker joined ns in the cut, and
the three of as walked up aud down the cut
again conversing; I conversed.iu my ordinary
conversational tone, and the other gentlemen
seemed to be talking in what, I think, was
their ordinary tones; itdid not seem to be
strained at all; the conversation was iu an
ordinary tone, and was pretty much continu
ous while passing Mr. Adams’ house; I could
see the other gentlcmm only occasionally
when they were keeping about even with us
ou the dirt road; they were not visible until
we came near whore we entered the railroad
cut; about forty or fifty yards this side of Mr.
Adams’ house there is a daclination in the
surface of tbe earth, and it was about here
they became visablc; a person walking or
standing on the railroad near this point
would be visable to a person walking the
dirt road about fifteen or twenty steps; I have
been acquainted with Johnnie Hooper about
fifteen or sixteen years; I have not lived near
Mr. Hooper for eight or ten years, but my
connection with the family has been intimate ;
I think I know the general character of the
defendant, Hooper, for peacefulness aud
morality in the community iu which he lives;
it is good in the circle in which he moves; he
is a peaceable, law-abiding citizen; I know
Miss Julia Barnett; knew her about as Ido
Mr, Hooper; have not lived near her for sev
eral years, but have known her from child
hood; knew her general character; lived
several years in the same village with her
father and mother when she was i child; her
character is good; has been heretofore. When
they lived in the same neighborhood with
myself, they moved in the best circles of the
neighborhood. The family relations between
the Hoopers and Barnetts, have always been
intimate. I knew Miss Barnett’s father;
think I am satisfied that Judge Hooper and
Miss Barnett s father were law partners. They
lived about three hundred yards apart in
Crawford; do Dot know, but think perhaps
Col. Hooper is tbe guardian of all of the Bar
nett children. Mrs. Barnett has eight chil
dren; no males. W. E. Barnett, father of
Julia Barnett, has been dead fourteen years.
Miss Julia, I think, must be eighteen or
twenty years old. John P. Hooper, from my
knowledge of him, must be about twenty-one
years old. I do not recollect what his age
was represented in his application lorjidinis-
sion to the bar. Guardianship of Col.
Hooper to the Barnett children was adTnitted
of defendant.

I was forty or fifty yards this side ojf Ad
ams’ house, and beyond tho deep cu| when
I got on the railroad. The three of us walked
probably 50 or 60 yards; probably it was just
beyond Adams’ house; I could not see the
house I think while in the ‘cut. I talked in
my .prdinary tone, probably not so loud as I
am now talking. My voice, though no* loud,
I think is clear; I thiuk, if speaking to a per
son twenty-five feet off X would raise my
voice. The gentlemen on the dirt road walk
ing, could not hear persona walking and talk
ing as well as if standing still. The average
depth of the cut I should say, is twelve or
fifteen feet right along in front of Adams’
house, but heights aud (fwtance* are decep
tive, and I did not measure the depth.
Where we got i»k> the cut «om© titty

A person walking on the dirt road with his

seth as follows: I don’t recollect exactly, but

Mr. Adams were conversing while walking
through the cut, ia their usual tone of voice;
I never heard Mr. Baker talking—that is, I
did not recognize his voice, as talking:
I could not hear them talking so
as to distinguish their voices, but
not was said; the gentlemen ou the dirt road
were Colonel G. W. Hooper, J. J. Green and
myself. When Mr. Baker came up and joined
thoso in the cut, another man came with
him whom I don’t know, aud remaiued with
us on the dirt road; a short distance from
where they entered the cut for about fifty or
sixty yards they could not be seen; I am ac
quainted with the gentlemen who were in the
cut; that is Mr. Adams anti Colouel Martin,
and I am familiar with their voices; I have
practiced in the Court-house with Colouel
Martin lor about twelve years; I thought I
heard one of them say something about
three-quarters of a mile; I am not sure that
three-quarters of a mile is what was said, but
if it was I could not distinguish which one of
them said it. 1 was nearest to the railroad
and was listening especially to hear what was
said; we halted once for a short time; from

Robert R. Baker, having been sworn, de
poseth as follows: I kuow where Mr. W. J.
Adams lives; near the S. & M. R. R.; know
where the cut iu the railroad is, opposite Mr.
Adams’house or lot; it is about fifteen feet
deep; was there to-day with Colouel Hooper,
Mr. Adams, Mr. McCoy aud another gentle
man, whose name I do not know; was on the
bank in the cut; I was walking; Mr. Adams
and the gentleman referred to, whose name I
don’t know, were with me iu the cut; we
were walking down the road and talking; Mr.
Adams and the gentleman with him were
talking when I spoke to them; we went about
fifty yards; think it was right in front of Mr.
Adams’ house for about fifty yards; we
walked the full length of the cut and
back; think we talked continually, and
in our usual tones; 1 was talking about
as I am now; ibe dirt road was not ovtr 20 feet
from where I was on the edge of the cat; in
other words, if I had been on a level with the
dirt road.it would not have been more than 20
soft; Col. Hooper, Col. McCoy and Goodson,
my half brother, were on the dirt road while
I was in the cut; J. J. Greeu was also with
them; I have since then seen the gentleman
who was with me iu the cut; I see him belore
me now. Cross Examined—There is a cross
ing between Adams’ bouse and town; from
the crossing to Adams’ house is 216 yards;
from the crossing to tho end of the cut is
533^ yards; the deepest part of the cut is
pretty close to the crossing; I don’t think it
is as deep again at this deep place near the
crossing as it is at Adams’ bouse;
at the deepest place I think it was
so deep as this wall; it maybe, I didn’t
measure it; I did not measure the depth in
front of Adams' house; if measured 1 do not
think the deepost part would be moro than
five or six feet deeper thau it is in front of
Mr. Adams’ house; don’t think this wall is
more than thirteen feet high; there is no
place in front of Adims’ house near as high
as the deep place near the crossing : tho cut in
front of Adams’ house is five or six feet less
than the cut near tbe crossing, is my impres
sion : the cut near the crossing is about as deep
as this court bouse wall is high, it may be
deeper, it is not less; this wall is about thirteen
feet high in my best opinion; if standing on
railroad I don’t know how mach lower my
Bead would be than the line of the dirt road
twenty feet off; I have no opinion how much
lower it would be; it is twenty feet from where
I am standing to tho railing around the bar,
is my impression; the tone of voice used in
tho cut is about my usual tone; I think I
spoke louder one time when I first got in the
cut than I do now; I entered the cut just
this side of Adams’ house; if I was
standing on the railroad track the line
of the dirt road would be five feet
above my head; from the bed of the railroad
to the bed of the dirt road would be about ten
feet ten inches. Mr. Adams wrote the mem
oranda in the book I have; I went out pur
posely to measure to-day; walked in the cut
about fifty yards and back, talking; there was
one went with me a ad we met ono person
there when we weut oqt to measure. I was
asked to go and measure the distance. Colo
nel Hooper asked me to do it; he went with
me; I pulled the chain when we were measur
ing; we measured right, centering the track;
I was there again to-day; my brother went
with me. I live near Yonge’B fish lake; am in
the habit ef wearing spectacles when at work;
am near sighted; think I had on spectacles
when pulling the chain; pulling the chain is
flue work, though not very fine after all; most

Dear Sir—Iu reply to your inquiry. I would
state that mv opinion of PETEKS'*EURFIKA
TANNING PROCESS may be inferred from
the fact that I am now wearing a pair of
boots, the leather of which waa tanned by
that process before the same was perfected
and a patent obtained; that Ihe said boots
have now been in wear for he period oi three
yetqp* are the most pliabe and easy to the
feet of any boot I ever wore, and are m a
good state of preservation yet.
