St. John’s Day.
ITS CELEBRATION AT VARIOUS POINTS—HOW IT
WAS PASSED AT CABTERSYILLE AND
SNAFPINO 8HOOLS -MASONIC
AND RFXIGIOCS CEBEMO-
mai—WHAT RT. JOHN 8
DAT IS.
From the Heaald's Special Correspondent*.
The anniversary of the LaUl day of St
John the Baptist has been widely celebrated
on tho 24th, as will be seen by our corres
pondents, by th -i Masonic fraternity in accor
dance with time honored custom. St. John
was a son of the Jewish priest Zacharias and
of Elizabeth, who as a judge of morality and
an undaunted preacher of repentence, ob
tained great celebrity, first in his native
country, then in the mountains of Judea and
among the whole nation. The frank earnest
ness with which he preached and his great
fame increasing throughout Galilee brought
npoQ.hiaa(he suspicion of the court of King
Herod who imprisoned him and on the 20th
of August, in the 33d year of his life, caused
him to be beheaded. The 24th of Jure, his
birthday, is dedicated to his memory through
all Christendom. The patron saint of the
Freemason’s brotherhood was formerly not
St John the Baptist but John the Evangelist,
whose festival they celebrated the 27th of
December, upon which day they held their
general assembly. The festival of St.
John the Baptist, occurring at a season more
favorable for the yearly assembly, was often
appointed as the time on which it should be
held, until now it has become general, al
though many lodges still celebrate the 27th
of December, and call it the minor St. John’s
Day.
AT CARTKRSVILLE.
Cabtersvda.e, Ga., June 24, 1873.
The Masons celebrated St John’s Day here
to-day. Nine lodges and four counties are
represented. They marched in procession
from the lodge to the Baptist Church, where
they were addressed by Dr. Love, of Atlanta.
The church was crowded by ladies and gen
tlemen anxious to learn something abont the
mysterious order. After the address the
procession marched to the town hall, where a
splendid repast had been spread for them by
mine host of tho Tennessee House. They
showed at the table that they didn’t differ
from other folks in Appreciating the good
things. A band of music is in attendance,
and enlivens the town with their stirring
strains. Snap.

A Large Attendance—Thice Thousand l’er
sons Present—Fine Addresses.
Snapping Shoals, Jane 21* 1873.
The celebration of St. John's Day, at this
place, was in every respect a success. There
were at the least count three thousand per
sons present.. The best of order prevailed,
and the Masonic Order was displayed with
dignified effect. Judge Samuel Lawrence,
P. G. M> and P. G. BL 1’. of Georgia, deliver
ed a beautiful address, which was listened to
with great attention by all. The Judge, in
Lis happy and delightful style, portrayed the
life and character ot John the Baptist, com
paring it to the grand teachings of the Ma
sonic Order. He is eeitainiy one of the most
learned men in Masonic lore that lives to
day in America, having made it a study for
many years. He also paid some high com
pliments to the ladies, with fine effect. The
Judge was followed by Colonel H. D. Capers,
who opened his address by stating that the
Masonic Temple was so perfectly erected by
Judge Lawrence, that he would only ramble
with its walls. His address was fine and full
of good advice to riting young men and wo
men of our country.
L. F. Livingston, the W. M., made a very
happy effort to the craft, alter Colonel Capers’
speech, which was received with enthusiasm
by the brethren.
After the spcakiug the crowd repaired to
the tables—a short piece off, where all par
took of a fine barbecued dinner, alter which
the crowd dispersed. Snapping Shoals is a
little village 11 miles from Covington, to the
right of the Georgia railroad coming from
Atlanta, and on the banks of South River,
surrounded by beautiful mountains and in
the midst of majestic oaks. It will be many
years before I forget my very pleasant visit

The Masou’s of this and surrounding sec

the aroma of tender lambs, sharp vinegar,
spices and bullocks’ blood floats into the car
iu which we sit. Colonel Platt of Oglethorpe,
is the chief cook on this occasion, and he will
do things 14 to a T.” A large crowd is out,
and all are enjoying themselves.

A Dead Wife’s Ghost.
HAUNTISO THE HUSBAND WIIO DISUEGADDED HIS
SOLEMN PROMISE NEVER TO MABRY AGAIN
THE BRIDAL CAKE
DESTROYED.
From the Louisville Commercial, June 14.
A German ot good standing up town lost
his wife by death about a year ago. On her
death bed the wife exacted a solemn promise
from the husband that he would never marry
again. He was sincere at the time, and fully
believed that he was willing to remain a
mourning widower the rest of his days. A
few months ago, however, he began to feel a
warm affection for a lady Jup town. In due
time he proposed, and was accepted. The
promise to the dead was disregarded in his
affection for the living, and tbe [man was
made sensible of his broken promise. His
sleep was disturbed and haunted with unpleas
ant dreams. Nightmare, or the accusing
presence of his spirit wife, brooded over him,
until the approach of night was to him the
sure coming of terror. His appetite failed
him, he w asted away in flesh, and his spirits
sunk below a zero standard. Still he persist
ed in his intentions to wed, with all these
premonitions of evil staring him in the face.
The marriage day was settled, and the mis
erable man made the necessary preparations.
He ordered from the confectionery a wedding
cake, cf size and quality commensurate with
the occasion. The baker was cognizant of
the man’s circumstances, and warned him
against his contemplated step, but all to no
avail. Wed he would. The baker made the !
cake. It contained the usual quantity of in
digestion, and was as elegant au article as
could be desired. When it was done he put j
it carefully away in another room with a num
ber of other nightmare-provoking cakes, cov
ering it with a glass protector. The door was
locked, and the baker retired.
This was Tuesday night, and the marriage
was to take place on the day following. The
man who would marry met his betrothed and
his friends in the evening and was married.
The cake was sent for. The baker, with pro
fessional pride, opened the locked door and
entered for the cake, when lo ! the cake lay
strewn about the floor, the glass case was
shivered to pieces—and yet not a thing had
entered tbe room daring his absence. The
news added a new ghostly feature to the
groom's unbapp)* surroundings. His super
stitious neighbors say that the ghost of the i
departed signified her disapprobation of the
second marriage by ruthlessly destroying the
wedding cake; and the honeymoon of the de- !
termiued widower was turned into gall and J
bitterness.

Bath Tubs for the million!
We were informed yesterday that young
Hooper, the murderer of Phillips, Las been
released on five thousand dollars bail, and we
must therefore conclude that this is the pos
sible value set upon an old man’s life by the
judiciary who regulates matters in Opelika,
Ala. Let us look at this ; let tbe old men of
the land consider it, and then let them ask
themselves if God can smile on a land capable
cf such guilt and negligence. It has come to
this at last, if in Alabama a hot-headed youth,
without much principle, should imagine that
you, a respectable citizen, had done him an
injustice, he can hurry away to his room,
load his pistol, and meet you in the court
house yard, and there, as if to taunt the
spirit of justice, send a bullet to your heart
and desolation to your home, and then coolly
blowing the smoke from his revolver, plftce it
iu the rear pocket of his pants, walk off, en
ter five thousand dollars bail, and go out to
mingle with his fellow-men, as if he had done
an heroic act In this cowardly deed there
may be a hundred braves, with their money
and pistols, ready to sustain this man, and to
see in his bloody hands a halo of glory ; but
they forget, in their hot haste, to defend the
living murderer, the wrong to society, and
tbe murdered man’s dependents. This heroic
defender of female honor is not only a mur
derer, but a coward ; for he slew the very man
who tried to befriend him, and who held the
secret of his rumored crime—a crime as black
and forbidding as the dastardly murder he *
committed to hide it
It is as if A had said to B, 4 ‘You have been
doing a wrong, change or the world will
know it,” and 13, instead of following this
advice, or clearing himself and the person
involved, till no shadow of a stain rested on
her name, had, like a coward, killed the very
being who held the secret of his guilt, as if
the blood of a murdered man could wash
clean his soul; as if five thousund dollars were
the amount of damage this heroic youth had
done the world, measured by the morbid sen
timentality of his fellows.
Is five thousand dollars the price set on an
old mon’s life in the good State of Alabama ?
Can a man who is able to raise that amount of
seenrity make a home desolate, nor fear the
result ? Can he place the character of a wo
man who may be pure as snow, by his defense
of her, in snch a light, that while she lives,
men standing iu groups as she passes, will
repeat the story of her presumed mistake and
shadow her life with the cloud of this crime ?
It cannot be ; we have too much faith in the
Vool judgment aLd love of justice of tbe men
et Alabama to believe it, for if the murdered
man had done the murderer a wrong, the law
of Alabama would have redressed it, and
cleared beyond the slightest doubt the char
acter of this poor girl. But now no matter
how pure her life, the future must be dark,
for there is no power in the blood of that old
man to give her good name back to the world
unstained. And he, who has so injured her,
though he escape the penalties of tbe law he
has outraged, most forever walk the earth
with his crimes burning into his soul, and
the dying groans of an old man over ringing
in his ears. He may escape through the
weakness of a jury or the imbecility of a judge,
but night and day, duriDg the weeks, months
and years of his ruined life, if he have a spark
of conscience left, he will hear the last cry
of Phillips, and ever before his mind will
come a picture of a father slain by his hand,
and tho red blood flowing earthward will
never, never cease, but will ever beet its sau
gaine tide against the progress of his life.
He may live to become old, and feel the in
nocent kiss of baby lips on his wrinkled fore
head, and for the moment he may dream
himself into a forgetfulness of his crime, but
