DEA'iII or 1WO GOOD CITIZENS—TCTT’* LIVER FILLS. Hampton, August 2Gtb, 1873. To the Editors of the Herald: I just thought you would like to bear a few things from old Henry. We nre dry here. Cotton about half os good as last year this time. Corn on uplands good. Fodder being saved nice time for it. Some sickness and deAth. Old uncle John Adams, one of the oldest and best citizens of our county, died on the 21st. H. M. Starr, another one of our best farmers and citizeus, died a few days before, and Dr. T. T. Key, late of Atlanta, now a citizen oi Hampton, lost a little son ten years old Saturday night. He died of congestive fever—others sick. We waat a Grange in our town. Dr. Tutt's pills has performed a wonderful work in our county. We had a negro in jail for stealing some watches, and he complained of being sick, and the jailer give himfi dose of TnU's pills at breakfast, and they worked him out of jail by eleven o’clock. He has not been heard of since. Charles W. Dupree, the man that Massy cut so bad a short time back, is recovering. Considerable thieving is going oh in our little town—safe robbery, etc. We have had some gracious revivals in our com* munity. More soon. Respectfully, G. Henry Olay. BIS TOMB—JOHN MOEGis's. From the Springfield P.triot. While recently in Lexington, Kentucky, we paid a visit to the tomb of Henry Clay. No one visits that city without gazing on the Ireautifnl monument which marks the resting place of this oue of tbe greatest statesmen of his day. The tomb is situated near tbe cen tre of the city cemetery, and on the highest part of the ground. It is surrounded by all that wealth and taste can suggest in tbe way of ornament and elegance. One is forcibly struck with the grandeur of the Clay monu ment long before he reaches it, and as he draws near his convictions grow stronger that he ts nearing the immortal, rather than the mortal. The grounds are entered on the south, and long winding drives conduct one through a paradise of msrble and beautiful flowers and shrubbery, together with a natural growth of oaks and walnut for which Kentucky is neted. Reaching the mount on which the Clay mon ument stands ws ascend its grassy side, on- marked by path or read. Tbe base of the monument seems more like a boose than a vault. It is forty leet square, made of some Sonthern marble, nicely polished or dressed to a smooth surface. On two sides u< large grated doors, through which may be seen the sarcophagus which contains Ike immortal dust of one of the brightest American intellects. One is most forcibly impressed with tbe occasion in be- boldirg at any time "the last home of man,” bat never were we more deeply moved to the sad realities of life, or the certainty of death, then when gazing on this, tbe end of Henry Clay. The sareopbagns is pnre while mar ble, with a vine running around its base, dotted with atari and a mantle thrown par tially across one end. On the top is the aim- pie inscription, “Hisit Out," and on tbe side is the following: “I can with nnsbaken confidence appeal to the Divine arbiter for the troth of tbe declar ation that I have been inflnenced by no im pure purpose, no personal motive; have sought no personal aggrandizement; but that in all my public eels I had a sole and single eye and a warm devoted to be tbe Mtoe inter ests of my conn try." To tbe right and at tbe foot of this coffin rests that of the wife of Henry Clay, but no inscription can be seen on it from without On the top of this base rests a pedestal of grand and imposing proportions, sannonnted by a colossal figure of tbe great statesman This figure is twelve feet tall, and is said to bs a very correct hkencas of Clay wbed living. Tbe entire height of the monument is thirty-five feet, and overlooks the city of Lexington as well as a large section of sur- rouodmg country. Henry Clay died in 1852, and the monument which now marks hit last home was five years building and cost tbe state a large sum of money. But tbe South ern people praise tbeir heroes while living and do them in marble when dead without count ing the cost As a people they have a great veneration for the memories of their distin guished men. TBE GRAVE OF JOHN IteBOAX is not far frost Clay's, bat one might rnn over it a dozen times without Doticing it. Nothing bnt a rude atone about a foot high marks the place where sleeps the great cos- federate general, but it won’t always be so. The people will some day show their love for his service—for tbe people still speak of Hor- r i as a true man to the South, and of course will be remembered as others. CONVENTIONS.

Rice, au extensive planter of Houston county, who ia stopping st the Brown Houte, says the caterpillars have appeared upou a great many of the plantations in that and Macon counties. They are m neany all cf his own and his neighbors’ fields, and the greatest apprehensions are felt that that their rav ages will work sad havoc throughout the country. That they only appeared lost week and have pleuiy of time before them to cut the crop down one-half. He further stated that au overseer, James Martiuy* near Marshallville, hod tried the caterpillar prepare:* tious with very uosatisfactory results. Wherever ap plied, the cotton died aud the worm lived. Many planters hail tried the experiment of arsenic held in solution by water, but lound that it eat the plant in stead of the caterpillar. On the other hand, nearly all the cotton buyers in the city refuse to credit half the stories told, insistiug that they are onlr partially true — that an immense crop will be produced—much larger than last, equally os large, if not greater, than any year siuce 1863. As a matter of course, It is well nigh impossible to get the exact truth, but that the destructive worm is in the cotton belt of Georgia, there is not a particle of doubt. Mr. Rice, since his report of the devastations of the caterpillar, says the boll worm is ou many places in Southwest Georgia. This worm is fatal to the cotton. Whilo the caterpillar is teriou*, though cot m-cesem' rily death, to the cotton, the boll worm is death in tbe first degree. Plenty of Bnt*. A few evenings since s party of rather gay and fes tive youths of this city determined to make a raid upon the thousands of bats flitting st twilight every where, and especially upou the suburbs of the city. Procuring one shot gun, a horse and baggy, and erecting perfect fortifications against malarious noc turnal dews, tbe trio headed the horse towards a locality where more bats existed than there are cater pillars in Dougherty county. When half the distance had been successfully mode, tbe horse shied st the first bat he eaw, the baggy lurched, lauding one of the *‘bat-»llion’’ on the ground. Slating that he believed his appetite for bats had changed very materially, he left the party, and bats, horse and buggy and re turned. They then loaded the guu, patting tbe tbot in first, determined to kill tbe next bat that pestered their horse. Again uuder way, they soon ran into a mud hole SDd stuck fast; tbe bats now rallied around in force, tbe borne commenced plunging and kicking, one man bolding the reins and the other the ann, but it never onca occurred to him to try to shoot. His chief business was to get oat of that buggy. The horse finally turned it over, broke the shafts, and left for his stable, where there were plenty of his sort of bits in his trough. His surviving friends were left head and body In the mad hole, bnt after prodigious exertions they got out with loss of gun, boggy and much other invaluable baggage uuder the seat of the baggy. Personal.—Mr. A. M. 0. Russell, of the Albany Central City, came up last night, and is a guest of the Brown House. He rays that the caterpillar is very thick in his section of the country, and that they are destroying the cotton wherever the Wheeensnt. Royal poison is not used. No rains have fallen along the road in some timo, and the son is exceedingly hot. If it were not for tbe worm the crop would be larger than any since 1860. New Office of like Western Union Tele- graph Company. Ihe poles have been erected along Mulberry street and completed for the new office of this company. Tbe large and splendid room in Ayres’ Block, now occupied by tho Central Railroad Bonk has been leased for a term of years by this great com. psay. The change will be greatly for the better. Be ing on the ground floor, it will be more convenient for the public at large, whilst the operators, clerks and messengers are cettainly congratulating them* selves st getting o«t of tbe "sweat box,’’ they are now in. The office is to be furnished complete, in that rtyle of magnificence commensorate witu tbe ad- vanccd progress of the cily, and this its most import* ant clement. * Tho Smithviile Murder. Arrangements bed been made to telegraph yon yes* ter day from Smithviile direct, and hence no report was sent jov from this office last night. But for some reason you did not get the dispatch. Henry Jackson, who was arrested on Saturday night by the petrol, on yesterday mode a full and complete confession of the whole affair. He satd that hie fellow prisoner, Jesse Martin, did Ihe killing, sod that he was ouly accessory to tho robbery. His statement to tbs Sheriff was in effect that he did not enter tbe store at all; that when Martin came out of the bones, be approeohed him and demanded his portion of tbe spoils. Martin then told bias that there was not a cent In the house, and fearing detection be woald not take any goods or caught and placed in an iron cige by Huff and Clay. They have determined to get him seal fat and give him a high seat at the coming Stste F«d% He will not be turned loose during the exhibition unless s dog comes on the ground. Ia all such cases be will be immediately turned out and sent after him His trainer will be here in a few days and commence practicing bruin in the art of killing dogs. There is considerable art about tbe business, and if he succeeds in mastering it a great many people will solidly and enthusiastic ally vote for giving him the perpetual and unlimited freedom of tbs town.
