“DEBAUCHING A LEGISLATOR.”
A Racy Correspondence—Temptation—Vir
tue Personified.
Hon. Joseph E. Brown has been guilty of
the very common indiscretion of issuing
complimentary passes over his road to such
persons as, in hiß opinion, are worthy *,nd
wllojrill not be “debauched” or consider
themselves purchased thereby. The follow
ing is one of tbe responses to these courte
sies of the Railroad President. It makes
interesting reading:
Waxnesbobo, Ga., April 29, 1871.
Hon. Joseph E. Drown , Atlanta, Oa: —D ear
Sir: I have the honor to acknowledge 1 die
receipt of your letter, enclosing me a free
ticket over the Western and Atlantic Rail
road.
The sending of these presents, just at this
juncture of affairs, to members of the Leg
islature, T can but regard as a direct reflec
tion upon their intelligence and integrity.
Were I to accept the ticket, I should feel
that I was a “debauched legislator.” Hence
I promptly return the same to you, with
the request that you send me no more such
favors. v ' Respectfully,
D, P. Cox.
Now this was supposed to be a “settler,”
but it wasn’t; for President Brown “goes
for” Mr. Cox in the following style:
Western and Atlantic R. R. C 0.,)
President’s Office, >-
Atlanta, Ga., May 4, 1871.)
Hon. D. P. Cox, Waynesboro, Georgia :
Sir—l have to acknowledge the receipt of
your letter of the 2d ult., and in reply state
that I had no idea that you could be so
easily debauched I supposed, judging
from your position as a representative elect
of tbe people, you had the “intelligence” to
comprehend the motives that prompted my
action; and that you set a much higher es
timate upon yourself than to suppose for a
moment that any one would think of cor
rupting your “integrity” with so very small
a consideration.
Much has been said by designing men
about fraud or unfairness in the lease of
the Western and Atlantic Railroad. The
company have invited fair and full investigat
/ tion. And as their representative, I thoughi
it was proper that I afford the representa
tives of! the people every facility in my pow
_er, to the condition in wlpch the lessees
are putting. the road, and eur manner of
transacting business with the people. I,
therefore, determined to send free tickets
to the Senators and Representatives elect,
to be n|sed at their pleasure for that' pur
pose, but I certainly never imagined that
any one with character enough to be elected
a Representative of the people, could be in-
or bribed by such an invitation.
I hate made hQ discrimination between
those supposed to be perfectly impartial
between the State and the lessees, as thu
great body of tbe Senators and Represen
tatives are, and yourself, though rumor had
already set you down as one who prejudged
the case against us without a hearing.
While I had little reason to doubt that you
were coining up to vote against us on every
issue, I was willing that you have a fair op
portunity with the others to pass over the
road to get up points, if you could find any,
to use against us at your pleasure. With
the fixed determination which I am satis
fied you entertain, to fight the lease, right
or wrong, in which your future course will
doubtless show I am not mistaken, you may
feel that it would be a little embarrassing
for you to accept our invitation to pass over
the road and look into its condition.
In the warfare which the people of the
State will hereafter see you are making bn
the lease, I will afford you all necessary fa
cilities for looking into the condition of the
road, and shall regret to discriminajte
against you; but, as it is your desire, the
company will charge you full fare when you
pass over the road on that business, that all
may see and know that\you have certainly
not been I ‘debauched."
I have sent tickets to a large proportion
of the Senators and Representatives, and
at least nine-tenths of those who have 1 re
ceived them, who are doubtless as honest
and pure as yourself, have taken a more
i rational, enlarged and just view of the mat
ter, and hkve accepted the invitation with
out imagining for U moment that any re
flection was intended upon their ‘lntelli
gence or their integrity.” Conscious of the
rectitude of their own motives, and know
ing that they were not purchasable, they
have not misconstrued my conduct nor at
tempted by misrepresenting it to produce a
false impression. ... j
I do not know the postoifices of some of
the members elected to the Legislature, and
I have not therefore sent tickets to all.
Some J have sent may have miscarried.
The great mass of those to whom they were
sent have accepted them in the proper spir
it, and I trust they will use them whenever
they wish to see for themselves how we are
managing the road. If any who have been
omitted,'and who feel themselves above sus
picion, will inform me of their postoffice, I
will cheerfully extend to them the same
courtesy.
We feel that we are complying with our
contract in good faith. We pay the month
ly rental promptly, and we are greatly im
proving the condition of the road and its
rolling stock, at an expense beyond its
monthly income, of a heavy debt to the
company. And we have no motive to con
ceal what we are doing. We feel it our du
ty, whatever it may cost, to put the road in
condition to accommodate the public
promptly, and look to the future for a rea
sonable compensation for our risk and ex
penditures. Respectfully, etc.,
Joseph E. Brown.

The President’s Proclamation—The Ku-Klux
Bill.
The act of Congress entitled an act to en
force the provisions of the Fourteenth
Amendment to the Constitution of the Uni
ted States, and for other purposes, approved
April 20, 1871, being a law of extraordina
ry public importance, I consider it my duty
to issue this my proclamation, calling the
attention of the people of the United
States thereto, enjoining upon all good cit
izens, and especially upon all public officers;
to be zealous in the enforcement thereof,
and warning all persons to abstain fronr
counseling any of the acts thereby prohib
ited. This law of Congress applies to all
parts of the United Sfates will be* enforced
| everywhere to the extent of the powers ves
ted in the Executive. But inasmuch as the
necessity therefore as well known to have
been caused chiefly to persistent violators
of the rights of citizens of the United
States by combination of lawless and dis
| affected persons in cetain localities, lately the
theatre of insurrection and military conflict,
; I do particularly exhort tbe people of those
| parts of the country to suppress all such
I combinations by their own-voluntary efforts
I through the agency of local laws and to
maintain the rights of all citizens of the
| United States, and to secure to all such
citizens the equal protection of the laws.—r.
Fully sensible of the responsibility imposed
upon the Executive by the act of Congress, to
which public attention is now called, and
reluctant to call in force any of tbe extra
ordinary powers thereby conferred upon
me, except in cases of imperative necessity,
I do, nevertheless, deem it my duly to
make known that I will not hesitate to use
the powers thus vested in the Executive
whenever and wherever it shall become ne
cessary to do so for the purpose of secur
ing to all citizens of the United States the
peaceful enjoyment of the rights guaranteed
to them by the Constitution and laws. It
is my earnest wish that peace a cheerful obe
dience to law may prevail throughout the
land, and that all traces of our late unhap
py civil strife may be speedily removed.—
These ends be can easily reached by acquies
cence in the results of the conflict now
written in our Constitution, and by the
due and proper enforcement of equal, just
and impartial laws in every part of our
State.
The failure of local communities to fur
nish such means for the attainment of re
sults so earnestly wished, imposes upon the
National Government the duty of putting
forth all its energies for the protection of
its citm-us of every race and color, and for
the restoration of peace and order through
out the entire country.
In testimony whereof, I have here set
my hand and caused the seal of the United
States to be affixed. *=*
Done at the City of Washington, this
the third day of May, in the year of our
Lord eighteen hundred and seventy-one,
and of the Independence of the United
States'the ninety-fifth.

LAURA FAIR.
A Modern Lecretia Borgia—The Great Cal
ifornia Murderess—A Full Sketch of Her
Career.
The lesson from the career of this wo
man cannot bo emphasized by minute de
rails of crimes, hence the full record of the
trial has found no place in our
Her life, however, is too strongly suggestive
to be passed without a glance. She was
bom in Alabama, and, through poverty and
neglect, reached womanhood without know-'
irig the wholesome atmosphere of home.—
The family removed to New Orleans when
Laura was sixteen, and here the gril resolved
to enter the world under new circumstances.
Bright in mind and exceedingly comely in
person, she soon found full mvestmen for
her capital She caught a rich husband. —
She was cigteen and he was eighty. His
senile jealousy drove her to the remedy of
divorce; but while the action was pending,
the dotard died in delirium tremens,l and
the adventuress found herself the mistress
of an ample fortune. She married within
» month. apd in less than three was the
widow of a suividte. With the semblances
of decent sorrow fresh upon her, she took
another hatband, CoL Fair, and the fortune
of the first running low, she emigrated with
thwom toFnnriaCilF, Nevada, where she
set up a hosteny, styled the “Fair House.”
The amiable Colonel made way for some one
else by blowing his brains out, and the incor
rigible widow, sated with her matrimonial
ventures, essayed fame and fortune on the
San Francisco stage. Hers were the arts,
however, which do not show to full advan
tage on the mimic scene, and her first appear
ance as Lady Teazle was also her last—
One conquest she made was the final cause
of the present scandal. She captivated the
susceptible heart of A. P. Crittenden, and
ex-Judge and an eminent lawyer. Practic
ing all the arts of a matchless conning, jshe
lured him from wife and home, robbing,
him, meantime, of all she could get. With
his money she pensioned her mother com
fortably and re-establish herself in the Fair
House in Virginia City. While still intri
guing with Crittenden, she met some one
else possessed of money and made herself
his wife. Without identity or apparent
purpose this fourth “husband” flits aimless
ly across the hideous scene. It suited the
whim of Jezebel to remove this Naboth,
that she might make her way into a neigh
boring vineyard, so she shot him. This, at
any rate, was candid; but even Nevada jus
tice frowned at it, and the enchantress was
brought to trial. She was defended by
Crittenden so eloquently and ably that the
judge seems to have forgotten the law, and
the jury the facts, for she was triumphantly
The favorite of fortune and favored of
justice supported her melancholy widow-

hood a few months, and in 1868 made a
. new marriage feast, taking to her a man t>£
doubtful morals but undoubted wealth,
who figures on the scepe as “Snyder.”—
Sbe looked upon Snyder’s money as it was
| wood; she looked upon Snyder and thought
that Crittenden was better. Tired of the
sanguinary method she gave Snyder the
choice of a divorce, and he, amiable man,
furnished a situation which, when brought
into court,achieved a legal separation with
in a mouth.
Crittenden, during these matrimonial
tr msfigurations, still manifested his fatuous
chivotion to the adventuress He gave her
something like $70,000 altogether. ‘At t'db
time of the Snyder episode, he, however,
seems to have realized the part he was play
ing. He sent for his wife and family, and
meantime informed Mrs. Fair that he could
have nothing more to do with her. She
flooded him with letters and denunciation.
She threatened an exposure of his relations
with her. Receiving no answer to these
ravings, she thrust herself upon him in his
offie, and vowed herself his wife. She dared
him to cast her off. The next day she shot
him dead as he sat by his wife and children.
Personal Correspondence.
Roue, Ga., April 20, 1871.
Hon. J. I. Bums —Sir: I have been in
formed by Major Z. B. Hargrove, and oth
ers, that on the day of November last,
you stated to an audience in the City Hall,
in this city, that I was a thief and scoun
drel, and that you had previously hurled
this in my teeth, and that I did not have
the courage to resent it.
I desire that you specify a place where I
can see you in person, that we may talk the
matter over, at some hour on Saturday next.
This note is not intended to aggravate
hostilities, but for the purpose of amicably
settling the matter. I am,

Reese, in which I requested that you specify
a place and an hour, that I could see you
in person, specifying this day, Saturday, giv
ing you ample time to consider my request
You have seen proper not to answer my
communication for reasons, perhaps, best
known to yourself.
I*am informed that on day v»f Novts**-"

City Hall, in this city, “that I was a thief and
scoundrel , and that you had previously hurled
this in my teeth, and that I did not have cour
age to resent it.”
Did you, or did you not, use this lan
guage ?
This note will be handed you by my friend,
Captain J. H. Reese, through whom you can
reply. • Georoe P. Burnett.
Rome, Ga., April 26, 1871.
To the Public.—l regret the necessity
of bringing to public notice a disagreeable
matter that might have been otherwise
amicably adjusted. Sometime past, John I.
Burins, in a public speech in the City Hall
in uhis city, used certain language in refer
ence to myself, a quotation of which is
found in the preceding two notes—one ad
dressed to Hon. and the other to John I.
Bairns. I had hoped an opportunity would
offer, by which an explanation might be
made, which would have avoided further
differences, and superseded the necessity of
this publication.
Mr. Bums, without any provocation on
myipart, most wantonly assailed my person*
al character, and now wholly refuses to
have any written communication with me
in the premises, or to make any explanation
whatever of his pusillanimous conduct.
I have, therefore, but one course to pur
sue, which is to brand the said John I.
Bums as a wilful, malicious liar, and a cow
ardly whelp, and no longer worthy the at
tention of a gentleman.
With this, I hand Mr. Bums over to the
judgment of an honest and brave public,who
can best place the seal of condemnation on
his cowardly course. George P. Burnett.
A School-Boy’s First Love Letter.
“I never wrote a letter before, and £on>
know just how to begin it; but I know lots
of boys who do write letters to the girls,
and I'm most as big as they are. Tommy
Jones said hie had got a letter from some
body; I teased him to let me see it; in tak
ing it from his pocket it fell into a mud
puddle. I never was so tickled in my life;
but he cried like everything. I like you
real well, for you are a Democrat, and Old
School Baptist, and have been to the city.
I saw you at church last Sabbath. You
have anew bonnet. I like new bonnets;
and some time, you know, I shall get you a
new bonnet almost every day. I shall learn
to build houses, and you can wash the dish
es and make pan-cakes. I like pan-cakes;
don’t you? I don’t like mqlasses a bit; it
is real nasty stuff. I hope you don’t like it
either, for I shall not have a bit in our
house, and it wouldn’t look well to quarrel
about molasses; and I wouldn’t strike a
girl when she’s a woman; when I get some
money I’m going to buy you some colouge;
I shall turn some out for me, so when I
come to see you I can perfume my hand
kerchief.- I can’t write any more now.
The school ‘mam’ is looking this way. You
see, riie don’t know what, true love is. If
you haven't any paper, I’ll give you a leave
out of my new reader. "Willie Brown.”

Chief of the Secret Service Division at

some party in Florida, that a gang of coun

Secretary immediately dispatched Louis

case up, who, assisted by detective Bates,
got upon their track at Lake City, where
they procured numerous specimens of their
work. The gang taking the alarm, broke
up their rendezvous and left Lake City, but

Rough Joke on Mrs. Fair’s Fourth Husband.
A good joke has been told us on Mrs.
Fair’s fourth husband, Snyder, which we
have not yet seen in print. Snyder is said
to be the handsomest man in the United
States, and was formerly a heavy coal deal
er in Philadelphia, but soon after coming to
"this coast a few years since, went through
on stocks or something of that sort. Mrs.
Fair met him in an omnibus and deter
mined to marry him on account of his beau
ty. She sought an introduction and soon
afterward they were married.*, Snyder
thought it was all right until the second
night, when the fair one made him sit of or
occupy the sofa all night. Snyder bucked;
a little next morning, when Mrs. Fair re
paired to a gun store and procured a brace
of pistols. Snyder began to smell a mice,
and went down to inquire among “the boys”
as to the character and disposition of his
beautiful bride. They told Ihim, not only
what has now been proven in Court, that
her reputation for chastity was bad, but
that she was a vixen, and would shoot or
stab a man oh the slightest provocation.
Snyder looked serious, thought over for a
moment the harsh words he had said to her
before she went for the pistols, then raising
his eyes heavenward, and clasping his hands
together, exclaimed in an earnest tone: “I’ll
bet a t-h-o-u-s-a-n-d dollars I don’t live an
hour !”—Carson (NevadaJ Register.
The Colored Brigade.
We cannot say too much in! praise of pur
gallant colored friends for their assistance
at the fire yesterday. They seemed tojbe
übiquitous, and insensible to danger. Fre
quently, when the arms of the engines
drooped wearily, and responded slowly to
the efforts of the members, they came with
a rush to their rescue, and grandly did the
streams of water through the nozzTes, attest
thciir power and efficiency. Again, we say,
all honor to our colored friends. —Eufaula
