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. AT SAfAPPIKG SHOALS. 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 B. AT MAXEY’3 DEPOT. Col. Platt and his Allies— Charge cf the Beef Brigade. Maxet's. June 24, 1873. The Masou’s of this and surrounding sec tion will celebrate St John’s Day with a rous ing barbecue, and even as we pass the depot, 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. Stroller. Five Thousand Dollars. the shadowy cup of bliss will fall from his ashen lips, as he sees tbe skeleton hand writ ing on the wall the one word, “Murderer!” and the old man will look back on his blasted life, nor dare to look to that land beyond, where that God of justice reigns, the God who wrote with His Divine finger on the tab let of stone, “Thou shalt not kill.”— Oohtm- kus Enquirer. 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.

WM. WILLIAMS, Late Williams & Bro. A. LEYDEN. may27-dtf L. SCOFIELD, Jr., Superintendent and Secretary. may28-tf L. SCOFIELD, President and Treasurer. 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 rTIHIS FAVORITE SUMMER RESORT, SITUATED ; OUR SULPHURS!
