MADE THE PERILOUS DESCENT Editorial Eorrcspou leace» : ,n S. «>refill in the management o< every Greelev. \Ti.ANtA Ga., July 10th, 1S72. After spending several days recruit ing and ruraliSing in Matjison and vi cinity, I have just reached the “ Gate City,” and have time and strength on ly to drop you a few lines, for this week’s paper. The Greeley debauchery i- complet ed, and it noui teems the duty of those, who, from devotion to principle, have opposed and sought to prevent it, to acquiesce in the humiliating consum mation. If the result brings disaster or shame, the record will fix the re sponsibility where it belongs, and its authors and abettors are welcome to all resultant honors and emoluments. The surrender seems complete—em bracing not only the acceptance, bv the National Democratic party—so- called—of Mr. Greeley, but the en dorsement of the Republican platform of Cincinnati without alternation or addition. .Such astounding abandon ment of principle and of party organ ization, surely absolves every true Democrat from an}’ real obligation to support the ticket; but as there is not at present any other place of congenial alliance, it may be wise, irudent, aud patriotic for tiiose who have still abid ing faith in Democratic principles, to await with patieut endurance the re sults of the present temporizing expe dient. The nomination meets with not the slightest manifestation of approval here. Many prominent men whom I have met hang their heads in mortift- their own private affaire, and therefore trusty custodians of the funds of others. They have shown their faith in the undertaking by taking $50,000 in stock themselves. This fact alone is sufficient guarantee that the affairs of the road will be prudently managed. About §228,000 in bona fide stock has been subscribed iu all. It is the policy of the Board not to commence operations until at least §250,000 have been subscribed. We doubt not that if the proper efforts are made, the ad ditional amount to make this sum can be raised in Athens, in a short time. This, with the 815,000 per mile of State aid, will build the road, if not another dollar is subscribed. But it is not the intention of the Directors to avail themselves of the State aid, ex cept so far as it is absolutely neces sary. They desire to make it an in dependent, individual enterprise, and it is highly probable that before the work is finished, the company will he able to surrender the bonds of the State, as did the Airline road. We learn that the Board of Direc tors have elected Dr. J. A. Hunnicutt in place of Mr. R. L. Bloomfield, re signed; and Judge Jeff’. Jennings in place of Dr. Willingham, deceased.

There are not yet any evi- , n ue act relating to fruit distillers takes Important to Fruit Distillers. —We are informed that, according to recent enactments and regulations, the following requirements and changes in the law relating to fruit distillers are now in force, viz:, That part of the new internal reve- dences of organized opposition, and I trust there will be none. The coming nomination for Gover nor is exciting increasing interest, and MavorJJames is developing considera ble strength. He is personally popu lar, a man of good character, and fine business qualities; but tho friends of Gov. Smith, while admitting this, do not see that he has any advantage over the present incumbent which justifies a refusal tj endorse his brief adminis tration by a renomination. The chief opponents of Smith appear to be those who have in some way been disappoint ed in the discretion he has exercised in dispensing patronage, or official fa vors, or the partial friends of other as. pirants. It is rumored that Hon. A. R Wright, of Rome will be an inde pendent candidate. The State Road Lease is looming up as a coming issue. There are grave charges of fraud and threats of break ing up the lease. This is a question to be met without passion, or mere party prejudice. If there was fraud, it should lie exposed, and the authors punished. If the security of the lease is not good, it should he made so ; but a reckless purpose to break up the lease from mere opposition to the mode in which it was obtained or the men who obtained it—regardless of the in terests of the State—is unworthy of l^egislntive consideration. The great •questions are not, did the lessees get it too cheap or by bribery, hut would the State have done better to have leased it to others, or not to have leased it at nil; and also, whether, even if the lease was a bad bargain then, would it he wise now to hreak it. The lessees have secured controlling Western lines, which they now use as feeders and al lies of the Road, which will take a vast amount of the Western business over other lines, if the lease is disturbed.— They have spent two or three hun dred thousand dollars—or more—in preparing for the increased business irom these feeders, which would have to bo paid for out cf the Treasury, and much of which was for material which Mould not be needed if the feeders re- terred to were lost, and the road left to .staud on its own merits. If the lease ia taken away, the next best thing is to cell the road. No party is pure en ough to withstand the demoralizing in finance of its patronage. I have not been interviewed by the leasees; but effect August 1st, 1872. It abolishes the special tax or license of $50 per annum, and provides that the fees for gauging shall be paid by the United States. It also raises the tax on the brandy distilled from 50 to 75 coats per gallon. These are the only chang es—in all other respects the require ments of the old law will continue in force, and they are substantially as follows : The distiller must give written no tice to the assistant assessor, register with him his stills, and give bond.— The penal sum of this bond will, on all small distilleries, be about $5.00 In addition, he must keep a book, the form of which is prescribed by the Commissioner of Internal Revenue, and from this book make monthly re turns to the assistant assessor. His distillery must also be surveyed, hut this will be done at the expense of the United States. The lax of 70 cents per gallon is paid by stamps, which the distiller purchases from the col lector. These stamps must he affixed to the barrels containing the brandy (and cmcelled) before it can be sold or removed from the distillery. Parties intending to distill should give notice at once, so ns to give time for the arranging of all preliminary papers. to rescue the man. About three hun dred feet from the top of the moun tain they came to him. He was lying in a gulch, or water-course furrowed out of the rock by rains. One foot was jammed in a crevice, and the other bent under his body. He was hug ging the rock closely, while one hand was grasped in the strap on the collar ot his c.oat. A small tablet of rocks, two or three feet long, and a foot or so wide, was all that was between him and a fall of sorag twelve hundred feet to the ground. Had he moved two or three feet, either to the right or left, he would have been precipitated twelve iiundre d feet to the bottom, and only a horrible mass would have been fouud to tell the tale. He had lain there from Friday evening late until Saturday evening about 5 o’clock, a period of nearly twenty-four hours. His anxieties and SUFFERINGS WERE INTENSE no doubt. His feet were swollen, lacerated and blistered by the hot rocks; the sun poured upon him its fiercest rays, causing the most excru ciating thirst, and producing almost • tire blindness. Death seemed to stair him in the lace on all sides. Return, without friendly aid, he could not.— He was afraid to move either to the right or left, or get up, for that ter rible fall was beneath him. Without succor, he must die a lingering, tor turing death of thirst aud starvation. In adjusting the rope several rocks were in the way and tearing that the rope might dislodge them and bring them down ou. the unfortunate man, they were removed and thrown off in such a direction as not to strike on the spot occupied by the man. With crashing noise they rolled to the brow of the precipice on a line with him, add then pranged down that terriffi distance burying themselves iu the earth at the base. Reaching the place, the rope was put around the man, and assisted by Col onel J. T. Willingham, he was con ducted to a place of safety, and Mr. Willingham returned then and assis ted Mr. Juhan to get hack. Upon reaching the summit the rescued man was so thirsty that he would have emp tied a bucket of water at one or two draughts had he been suffered *odo so. was carried to Colonel Willingham’s store and cared for. Much praise isdue Major Steward, Colonel Willingham and F. P. Julian for their praise worthy and humane efforts. HOW THE MAN GOT THERE. On Friday evening, the man alluded to. reputed to be a Mr. McCarty, of The New Radical Methodist Bishop for Georgia*—The St. Louis Christian Advocate publishes a sharp and pointed criticism on the new emissary of Northern Methodism who is ordered to this State; The descrip tion of this Bishop is mutilated by shortening it; but as a passing minor topic, and as a castigation richly de served, from all accounts, it is too vig orous and to the point to lie entirely lost. “ Bishop uHven is our old ac quaintance of Zion's Herald, the most ultra of negroists and absurd of coun sellors to be found in the Radical Meth odist Chureh. Bishop Haven pro fesses to believefthat it is a sin against God to demur to the marriage of ne groes and whites. He asserts that the mulatto race is an improvement upon the whites. He affects great admira tion for the negro form and complex ion. He ascribes to him', more and intellectual qualities of higher flavor.— Bishope Haven will appoint black preachers to white churches and in all Villa Rica, Carroll county, went on the top of Stone Mountain, taking with him a bottle of whisky. He drank rather freely, and perhaps, was light headed. He started down in search of the “ DEVIL’S CROSS ROADS,” and finding the decent hecoming ab rupt, he pulled off his boots. He had not gone far when he recollects falling and scrambling. His boots were found hy Master George Jones, with nn empty bottle, at the foot of a radar tree, some ore hundred feet above where Mc Carty was found. Hence it is supposed that he fell and scrambled together some forty or fifty feet. He recollects leaving his boots there. The accident occured about night. REMARKABLE ESCAPE. It ia doubtless one of the most mir- culoiis escapes from death on record, when it is considered that death seemed inevitable from falling down the steep or from starvation, or that he should fall that distance and escape without serious injury. That this providen tial escape will have its influence on him we cannot doubt. He expressed a desire, as soon as he got safely to the top, to join a temperance society.— This sermon on the mount to him is more effective than a hundred temper ance lectures. Sunday he left for home.—Atlanta Constitution. so here goes. There are a great many kinds of doctors—big doctors and small doctors, old school doctors, doctors cf the utw school, and doctors without any school ing Whatsoever. - ' There are doctors oTlaWsuialf doer tors of sou.vin-laws. ear doctors aud doctors difficult to get the ear of; tooth doctors, nail doctors, and doctors who go at you tooth aud.nail; eye doctors aud I. O. U. doctor^.; eclectic doctors, electric doctors and doctors not of the elect, who go it mostly on tick. Thus we have cold water doctors and doctors who “ straw” it a good deal, root doctors and donctors whose motto is “ Root, hog, or die!” Suiritual doctors, and doctors very much out of spirits; magnetic doctors, and doctors who haven’t any inaguet- ism in them—or much else ; layiug-on- of-hands doctors, and doctors who will take anything they can lay their hands on, except, perhaps, their own physic. Sweat doctors are numerous. If they don’t sweat their patients, their pitients sometimes make them sweat. And there are few doctors who are net compelled to sweat around u good deal to get their pay. Vtnong Indian doctors are the full- bred, half-bred, corn-bred, and doctors never bred at all—at least npt bred to medicine—the latter class being far the most numerous. As a general thing Indian doctors know nothing whatever about Indians many of them never saw one. But that s nothing strange in mediejne. Men have practiced medicine all, their lives without enjoying the slightest ac quaintance with it. Herb doctors are popularly suppos ed to spend a large portion of their time in meandering through the fields culling herbs. Nothing ofthe sort.— Lots of them wouldn’t khpw^tnip from “ pennyrile’’ if they saw them growing. They cull their herbs at the druggist’s. There are lung doctors and doctors with very little lungs, although tolera ble livers. Doctors are good livers us a general thing. The throat doctor appears in a var iety of forms not recognized in niedi- ciue. The hangman is the most thor ough throat doctor we have. Ilis remedy—a stricture of hemp—rarely fails to cure even the most obstinate throat difficulty. Few persons have ever been heard to complain of their throat after the first application. Barkeepers are another variety of throat doctors, whose mixtures, also, arc too familiar to many people. Cold water is the safest thing for the throat os an inward application. Pepper doctors were quite popular some years ago. They don’t pepper us near so much as they did, though many doctors are peppery enough. Mustard doctors are in tlie army for the most part, unless they are muster ed out. Cancer doctors are almost as numer ous as caucers themselves. Every cancer doctor exhibits so many cancers has taken out that I have some times wondered if they didn’t take it out in cancers. I was once shown a tumor so large, I asked the doctor, if space was valuable, why he didn’t stick his patient away in a glass jar aud let the tumor walk around. Movement doctors are trying hard lilt!
