We regret lo stale furtl er, that there
seems to be great difficulty In getting
anybody to act as Commander-in-Chief
of the volunteer companies now form
ing for city defence—not more than
fifteen having as yet expressed a willing*
ness to serve in that capacity.
For the benefit of thoso who propose
to fight on their cum hook we would ear.
nesvly request farmers and others hav
ing brier books, or pot hooks, or fish
hooks, or hooks and eyes, to bring
them in at once, as they will meet with
ready sale.' This company will take
the name of “the F.oyd County Hook
ers,"‘‘ready at a moment’s notice.”—
Let Fighting Joe look to his laurels.
They will rendezvous near C'omete.ry
Hill. For further information apply
to Rose D’Albret.
For the information of our City
Fathers and the Hospital Surgeons,
we would state that a reliable old gen
tleman gave it as his opinion, on yes
terday, that the Street Gutters and Cul
verts would bo cleaned out by the next
rain. . ■ ... -
We ate requested by the Inferior
Court, to state that tlify are experimen
ting with- a Bridge over Dry Creek
near Col. 8tovaU’s furm, which is work
ing on the “Oscillating principle.’’—
Persons crossing are urged to take out
a life Insurance policy. An office will
be opened at each end of the bridge.
Tho Court arc of the opinion that while
our soldiers are risking their lives in
the wav, it is nothing but fair that the
people at home should enjoy a like
privilege of their risk.
S9*Absontees from the 1st Ga. Cav
airy will give proper heed to a notice
from Col. Morrison.

j®*We learn that there are some
able-bodied men who have expressed
their intention, that because they have
substitutes in the army, they will not
join any organ zation for home defence.
This is sheer pusilanimitv. and all such
should and will be markod men, for
any man that is not willing to fight Tor
his hearthstone it not worthy of hnv
ing a hearth-stone to fight for. We
would state that the names of all who
are not willing to aid in the present
emergency, will bo collected and pub
lished C-ome up, and face tho music
like men.
Shocking Outrage,
Just as wo go to press, we aro inform*
ed that tie Indian named John E.
Kftik, so long known in this county,
was on Sunday evening last, forcibly
seized and fastened before a hot fire
In this state of mind ho died. He was
was buried by tho Musons tho day after
his death, with appropriate religious
exercises.
Ho was followed to tho grave by a
large circlo of relatives, friends, neigh
bors, and pcoplo who hud assembled to
do honor to iiit memory. His body
lies beside tho loved and lost of his own
household. HU name lias a bright re
cord in the pages of his country’s glo
ry, and what is of far more importance,
we believe rcoorded in “tho Lamb's
book of life.” fc>.
when the President oallod upon Geor
gia for more troops, a cavalry company
was raised, composed of tho citizens of
Floyd and Polk counties, ami before it
was known that he would accept the
office, all minds were turned to him, as
thj most suitallo man in tho commu
nity to command it, lie was elected
captain, and though ho hud ten years,
and a physical infirmity, which of itself
would have exempted him, had age
made him liable to military duty, to
plead in excuse, yet he promptly ac
ceptod. This company entered the 1st
Regiment of Georgia Cavalry, and bus
shared all tho hardships, dangers ami
glories of that brave command. They
were under Gon. Forrest at the first
battle of Murfreesboro, and to Captain
Haynic belongs the honor of capturing
Gen. Crittenden and stuff. In com
mand of his company, ho went through
tiie Kentucky campaign, un i came out
of that fiery ordeal with the highest
testimonials of his supeiiors in com.
mand, of his. courage and efficien
cy.
The hand of Frevideuce is clearly
visible, in tho events of the last few
months of his life. In September he
was sen. homo by Gen. Smith on spe.
cial duty. While here he attended the
session of the Coosa Baptist Associa
tion, and on one occasion, the oppor
tunity being given, he asked for spe.
cialprayea in his behalf. No person
present will ever forget the thrill
of sympathy aO^nxidy, that flashed
over that large congregation, when the
grey-haired, war worn veteran, detibe
rately rose from his seat, and asked
God's people to pray for his salvation.
In a very few days duty called him
again to the field, but he was specially
remembered at tho the meruy seuf, by
many, no doubt who habitually invoke
God’s blessing upon ull our bravo de
fenders.
About Christmas he came home on
furlough, aud as tho time approached
for him to return to kia command, he
was engaged in preparing for service,
.Sitting quietly at his own heurtbstonc,
surrounded by his own family, ho was
engaged in cleaning his pistols, when
one of them fired, and discharged its
contents into his left thigh, just above
the knee joint. He passed unscathed
the storm of battle, at Murfreesboro,
Richmond and other places, when es
cape seemed miraculous, and at home,
in peaco and quiet, remote' .from the
scenes of war uud deuth, he receives
at his own baud, the wound whiun
to terminate his life.
Such is Providence! Such is life)
that life which tho enemy could not
destroy, must be yielded up at the
prepared for the purpose, and was left I communcl of him wlo gave it . Tbe
there without clothing, until ho was
literally baked and burnt brown. The
f erpetratora of the deed are known,
ut have not yet been arrested. Their
lader is said to bo a well known despe
rate character in the upper part of this
county, by the name of A. P. Tite. Ho
is a man of notorious covetousness, but
tbett or plunder does not seem to have
been the object for this inhuman act,
as nothing was missing from the prem
ises, oxcept a little corn meal. We
will have full particulars in our noxt
issue. _
g@rThe Rome Courier, in referring
to a paper called tho Beaver Dam Dem
ocrat, expresses the opinion that “just
two third* of that namo is appropriate.’’

No, Sir-e-e! We deny it, Mr. Mail,
most emphatically. We didn’t soy it.
Our friends here would have “blowed u 8
higher than a kite," if we had perpe
trated such a joke. Rather think the
Chattanooga Rebel will have to fathe 1 '
that, though cant say certainly.

wound caused violent inflammation,
and long, weary weeks of suffering, pa
tiently endured, followed, and Anally
he sunk from exhaustion. -
About ten days before his death, and
while his mind yet retained its vigor,
be sent for a minister. On his arrivals
without alarm or excitement, he made
a statement of bis feelings. He said-
he was going to die, that he was not
prepared, and was unwitting to die
without preparation. Said he had
commenced life with the idea that if a
man was honest aad industrious, and
free from outbreaking wickedness, that
those conditions complied with would
meet the measuje of his obligati in to
God and man. Said he had long ago
seen the fr llaoy of that opinion, and
then lidded in striking language, "Ami
now I*am all adrift trying to got hold
of another limb.” The minister gave
him such instruction as he deemed ne
cessary, and tried to point him to tho
“Lamb of God that takelh away the
sin of the world.’-’ He remained in
this stato of mind for several days,
when one right, he oallod to a pious
neighbor watching at his bodside, and
said, “My way is now clear. I am going
home to join my little ones. I want
you to meet me in- Heaven. Thero are
no moro hard, scrubby roads before
me,
He exhorted his family and wanted
his friends to meet him. Said he had
not lived os lie ought to have done, was
sorry for it and his hope of salvation
was in Jesus Christ, and Him only, and
that he felt safe in trusting in Him.
Woittnv or Consioehaaion.—The
Fayoltoville Observor reminds its read
er* that Congress lias lnid a tax of eight
per cent, upon all provisions (as well as
many other specified things,) on hand
ou tho 1st day of July next, beyond
what is necessary for tho family con
sumption of tho holder. This will
touch tho pockets of thoso who aro
hoarding corn, flour, bacon, &o. Has
tho knowledge of such a tax already
brought supplies moro froely iuto
market, and thereby reduced prices?
Whether suoh an eilest has been pro
duced or not, there ia every probability
that the tax will operute in that way
botween this and the 1st of July. And
what we would suggest to those who
have a surplus of provisions, is tliat'as
tho 1st of July approaches, tho nimket
will bo more and more crowded and
prices will probably more and more
fall. It is only necessary to call at
tention to this view of the matter.
Each holde.r will of couise consult his
own judgment as to tho propriety of
selling soon or late, paying tho tax
himself or letting somebody clsopay it.

Yankee Rzoiments Going Hoke.—A
Newbern, N. C., letter, to tho New
York World, says ;
Near y twelve thousand men belong
ing to nine months and two years’ reg
iments in this Department will soon
bo mustered out of service. It is hop
ed that tho patriotism of the North
will perceive tho propriety of raising
a fund to promote enlistments in loyal
North Carolina regiments.
Tho Fredericksburg correspondent of
the Richmond Enquirer writes:
Two Years and Nine Months Men.—
On Wednesday of last week five trans
ports, supposed to oontain at least six
thousand men in all, left Aquia Creek
for Washington. These were soma of
tho men whose terms of enlistment
had expired.
Regiments en route tor HosjE.-From
two to four regiments per day, from
the Army qf the i’otomao, whose terms
of service nave expired, arrived in this
city, on their return home, to be mus
tered out of service. To day the One
Hundred and Twenty-Seventh and
One Hundred and Thirty-Fifth Penn
sylvania regiments arrived, numbering
together about fifteen hundred men.—
N. Y. Herald.
Bi.acki.no rRou China Berries.—The
Columbus Sun recommends Us readers
to picsorve the following recipe for
making blacking:
Take half a bushol of China berries,
have them well picked from the stems,
put into a kettle, and aild three gallons
of water; boil down to one gallon, then
attain the liquor through a seive, from
the seed and skins, and add as much
pine wood (the richer tho better) scot
uh will make a good black, and it is
ready for use. A pint of good or a
quart of weak vinegar, (or stale beer)
first mixed with the soot will make it
better, and if you add the whole of ono
egg to a half gallon of the liquor it will
bo best, and equal to any Yankee black
ing. This Hacking eosts little besides
trouble •, and wo have seen boots clean
ed with it .inferior to none in gloss, and
it will not soil a white handkerchief.
Lot it stand several days before bottling
it off. •

Richmond, May 22 —Gov. Seymour, of

will he revolution itself. Wo pause to
