The First Buie of Cotton—A Revival—The
Herald.
Grantville, Gl, August 12, 1873.
To the Editors of tiie Herald:
Dear Sirs: We send you the first open boll
of cotton that has made its appearance in our
market. It came from the plantation of
Messrs. Stafford ,t Bro., near Grantville.
These energetic and thoroughgoing gentle
men have been the first to bring in a new bale
of cotton for the last two years, and the indi
cations are that they will be still ahead this
season.
The crop reports through this section are
generally satisfactory. No “shedding of
squares” or caterpillars yet complained ol'.
An interesting revival is going on in the
Methodist church at this place. Large crowds
of eager seekers daily flock to the alter, and
a goodly number have already joined.
The Herald is daily becoming more popu
lar with our people. Three weeks ago there
were only six copies taken at this office; now
there are fourteen. A paper so boldly, fear
lessly and ably edited as the Herald caunot
fail to receive the patronage of the people.

The Barlow-Woodson Tragedy.
A PRETTY CLEAR CASE OF JUSTIFIABLE HOMICIDE.
from the Omaha Bee, Aug. 8.
The readers of the Bee will recollect read "
ing in this paper on January 22, an acconn 1
of the killing of Dr. Wolfe, deputy post"
master at Wyoming in this State, by one
Me Waters, assisted, as it was said, by Wood-
son and one Lacey; at least they had some
thing to do with the affair. One Barlow, who
was present when one of the shots fired by
McWaters hit Dr. Wolfe, had, at the com
mencement of the quarrel, taken the part of
Dr. Wolfe, or pretended to do so, by firin
some shots at McWaters. McWaters was
some time ago arrested, and is now awaiting
lus trial.
Yesterday another homicide, growing out
of the Wyoming postofflee affair, occurred at
Percival station, thirty-two miles below Oma
ha on the Kansas City, St. Joe and Council
Bluffs railroad, in Iowa. The parties there
to were Woodson and Barlow, the latter be
ing killed by the former.. The particulars of
the affair, as learned from an employe oi the
railroad, are about as follows: After the ex
citement arising out of the Wyoming tragedy
had somewhat subsided, Woodson quietly
sold out his property in Nebraska, and pur
chased a place at Percival. It seems that
some bitter quarrel had taken place between
Woodson and Barlow about the Dr. Wolfe
affair. Barlow claimed that Woodson had
done some false twearing against him. Bar-
low recently learned of the whereabouts of
WoodsoD, and accordingly went to Percival
with the avowed intention of killing him. He
arrived there two or three days ago, and pub
licly exhibiting a revolver, expressed his in
tentions. Woodson was informed of Bar
low’s threats, and therefore kept out of the
way. Barlow began a thorough search of the
place for his intended victim, and yesterday,
about noon, be ended it by giving up his life.
Woodson being in mortal fear of his own life,
determined to settle the matter one way oi
the other—either he or his enemy must go
under the sod. So he procured a rifle, and
carefully loading it, he lay in ambush for
Barlow, and when he made his appearance
Woodson deliberately took aim and fired.
Barlow dropped in his very footsteps, having
been shot through the heart and instantly
killed. Woodson remained a few hours id
the place without being arrested, and then
disappeared, and has not been seen or heard
of since. The general feeling of the citizens
is that Barlow met a deserved death, as he
had been warned to leave Woodson alone as
he was a quiet but dangerous man. From
the above statement it would seem that the
killing of Barlow was a case of justifiable
homicide, as under the circumstances it was
life or death with Woodson.
A Serious Sequel to the Epi-
zooty.
HOW THE BU.I HESS OP AH ENTEBPB1MKG CHI
NES* EMPLOYMENT OFEICE WAS BROKEN UP.
From tbe Sen Franciaco Chronicle.
Daring the prevalence of the epizooty
among the horses in this city an enterprising
market man seenred the services of ten able-
bodied Celestials to draw bis wagon through
the streets. This was merely a sharp adver
tising dodge, and waH only done for two
hoars of one day. The Chinaman were
engaged by Henry Stivers, a lumber dealer,
from Ah Qnong, business manager lor a
Chinese house on Sacramento Btreet. This
Chinaman has attained great celebrity among
his countrymen, and among white people for
his learning, and is commonly called -'the
scholar." He speaks oar language fluently,
and reads and writes it with remarkable facil
ity. It seems that the novel employment
which he found for ten idle Celestials, has
brought him into marked disrepute with his
countrymen, and socially ostracised him, if it
has not actually endangered bis life. A day.
or two after this street parade of prancing
Chinamen drawing a market wagon, which
was subsequently pictured in the Kastern and
London illustrated papers, a jocular
poster was issued by some in
dividual Chinaman, directing any Ce
lestial in need of “ good fat horses"
to call at the establishment of Ah Quong.
The six companies took a more serious view
of the matter. They issued a proclamation
warning all Chinamen against hiring them
selves out as horses, as it was degrading and
beneath their dignity.* The proclamation
also forbid all Chinamen from having any
thing to do with Ah Qnong. Tbo subject
seems to have rankled in the Chinese breast,
and QuoDg received letters threatening him
with death. He wo* forced to leave the Chi
nese quarters and take up his residence among
white people. He announces his intention of
returning to China shortly, his commercial
genins not being sufficiently appreciated by
his countrymen here.
Deshohia, Iowa, August 14.187:1.
The anti-monopoly Convention nominated Andrew
Porter for Governor, and Frederick O’Donerly, Lt.
Governor. The resolutions favor a tariff for revenue.
Only about one third of the counties were represented.
THF FARMERS’ WAR.
The Granges Arraying themselves Against the
Merchants' Unions.
Richmond Va., August 14. 1873.
The farmers’ granges bare been established in con
siderable numbers in Virginia, and applications are
being sent to the Centre of tbe grange organization
here for detailed information.
A mercantile organization, which has become very
obnoxious to the farmers, facilitates the establishment
of these granges. The merchants have a combination
by which they seok to maintain uniformly high prices
upon all articles. In all the rural districts of the State
the workings of this combiration have long been very
oppressive, and the grange question is now being ae-
tvely discussed as a means of relief.
WORKINGMEN’S WAR.
The Trades Unions of New York Will Insist
on the Eight Hour Law.
New Yoke, August 13, 1873.
The Tribune furnishes the following: “The various
trades unions are making arrangements in a general
way to bold a mass meeting in September to discuss
tbe present aspects of the Isbor movement and to en
deavor, if possible, to bring about a more general ob
servation of the eight-hour rule. The working meu
complain that little by little the observance of eight
honrs for a day’s work is being disregarded by em
ployers. Not long ago one of the prominent
carpenters and builders of th; city was waited
by the committee representing men in his employ,
and asked whether or not the association of employ-
had not agreed to ignore the eight-hour rule and
return gradually and quietly to the ten-hoar system.
He replied that he knew of no such arrangement. It
had not been discussed at the meetings of the asso
ciation. At the same time he could not but confess
that many of the employers who had giveu tbe eight
hour plan a fair trial had come to regard it as a fail
ure, and gone back to tbo ten-hour system. Inquiry
shows that in certain trades the eight-hour
plan is almost entirely ignored. This is the
care with the piano-forte manufacturers’
cabinet makers, carvers, upholsterers
and iron workers. In these trades there were so many
employers who refused to co-opoi&te with the working
that s majority of those who acceded to the de
mand for eight hours have been compelled to return
to the old system, or leave the field altogether. Some
workmen are in favor of a general strike, and wish to
have those who are working eight honrs cease alto
gether until employers who are unwilling to grant a
reduction of honrs of labor shall be brought to terms.
This has been denounced as absurd and suicidal by the
trades, whose numbers and organization compel a gen
eral observance of the eight hour rule by tbeir em
ployers. Nothing definite has yet been determined
THE PROTECTIONISTS.
The Tariff Leaven Working in PennsyIvania.
Washington, August 13, 1873.
A recent letter from a prominent Pennsylvania pro
tectionist received here shows that the tariff men are
expecting a severs contest next winter, and doubt
their ability to maiutaln their ground. The recent ex
portation of iron from this country to England and
Canada, much of which has been exported from Chi
cago, is a phenomenon which causes them annoyance
and numerous inquiries are raised as to tbe explana
tion of these exportations.
Liberal Maes Convention.
Bangob, Mf. , August 14, 1873.
The Liberal Mass Convention, of this city, was or
ganized this forenoon. A Committee on Business

Madrid, August 14, 1873.
Further computation is said to have arisen fiom the
interference of Prussian frigates In Spanish affairs.
Eight hundred Spanish sailors who were aent by the
Government from Alicante to Eacambato, to take
possession of the iron-clais Vithoria and Alamanca,
were refused possession by Cspt. Werner, on the
ground that there was no authority from Berlin to
deliver them up. The sailors were obliged to remain
in a position where they were menaced and placed at
the msrey of the Insurgents; therefore, Werner de
clared that tbe aailors were under his protection.
The Insurgents declare that the steamer must leave
Eecambato, or they will open fire upon her without
regard to the Prussians.

STEALING FROM THE POSTOFFICE
Special to the Herald.
Athens, Ga., August 14, 1873.
Governor Smith made a speech before the
farmers to-day. It was said to be the fiocst
effort of his life. He look decided gronnd in
favor of the Patrons of Husbandry. He said,
“I am on general principles, opposed to
secret political organizations, but if I under
stand the objects of the Patrons of Husband
ry, I am with them heart and soul, and bid
them God speed.” Malcolm Johnson was
elected Secretary of the State Agricultural
Society, vice Dan’l Barnett, resigned.
George W. Adair, of Forsyth, was elected
to a Vice Presidency, and Mr. Middlebrooks,
of Pike, placed npon the Executive Commit
tee.

zette, Saudersville Herald, Cuthbert Ap
peal, and W. E. H. Searcy, of Griffin,
were candidates for election as “ Orgaus of
the Granges.” Mr. Taylor, the Secretary of
the State Grange, is openly for the Herald
for this position, aud he is backed by a great
many of the Granges. Leaving the Herald
out of consideration, the Monroe Adv-
tiser is decidedly tbo most popular with the
Granges, as it should be.

vagrant laws for Georgia. It created intense
enthusiasm.

The Gentlemen of Vienna.
Correspcndenoeof the Baltimor
American
The gentlemen among the wealthier clang
of Vienna are remarkably lino looking, beiDg
generally tall, well-formed and graceful in
tbeir movements. They also dress with ex
cellent taste aDd elegance, and aro wholly
different in appearance from the .American
idea of German characteristics. Not one of
your fAir readers would be able to decide
from their appearance whether they wero
Germaus or Boston Yankees, except they
have more ruddy complexions, and aro gene
rally more robust in their physical develop
ment. The officers of the army, ot whom
thore&rc thousands in Vienna, are seldom less
than eix feet in height, and are, as a body,
tho fittest formed men that can bo found iu
any part of tho globe. They dress in
tight-fitting uniforms, and, us wo once
before remarked, movo along tbo streets with
tho air of men who know themselves to be ob
jects of admiration. At tli e Reidhof to-night

Kleetion of Scltool Teachers.
The Board of Education of this couuty, will hold
the election for teachers for the coming scholastic
year on Saturday morning, at 10 o’clock, at their
rooms in the cou*t house building.
From the scarcity of necessary buildings, it is not
a certainty that there will be any more elected than
will nc needed for the east Macou school.
A Fox Chase.
We had a regular old fashioned fox chase on Cherry
street. Benner’s Iteyuard not to be outdone by his
companion in captivity, Bruin, (who took his prome
nade Sunday evening, and in a respectable manner, as
became the day,) slipped his moorings in the cool of
the evening, as though he fancied he could make bet
ter time when not so oppressively hot.
But, unfortunately, he reckoned not of the
breakers ahead, and was serenely sailing
along when he was discovered by P. H. Ward's big
dog, made a dash at him, when up the street, they
bringing all to doors and windows and throwing life
into the before deserted street. He was brought to
a bait a very few moments after the dogs 6cented the
game.
A (luecr Go-Cart.
Yesterday the denizens of the Brown House and
neighborhood were entertained by the perigrinations
ot a llliputian cart, made of a cigar box, drawn by a
couple of rodents that had just been persuaded to
leavo their little ne9ts by the persuasive fingers of a
couple of little nigs at the barber shop.
They had hitched them up and with a great “var
mint” of a bug with an unmentionable name to per
sonate the driver, they soon collected quite a crowd
around them.
Meeting in Belialf of I he Pope.
