TUESDAY MORSISU, June IS.
Excursion Down' the Coosa River.
On last Friday evening we accepted an
invitation from Capt. Elliott, in behalf of
the Coosa r : ver steamboat Company, -to
to join an excursion trip, given to some
gentlemen from the State of New 5 ork,
who are visiting our sectiou for the pur
pose of examining its agricultural and min
eral resources.
The steamer Etowah was in readiness,
and the party being on board, left her;Wharf
at 5 o’clock, p.m. The boat-was /in fine
condition—having been recently painted
and put in thorough repair—a fine breeze
was blowing up the river, at the time, and
the Coosa, always a beautiful stream, now
appeared lovely as a bride. The forest
trees, with thick* undergrowth forming a
beautiful hedge along tlie banks, thus fenc
ing in this highway u? commerce; the majes
tic Bluff—the occasional views of rich
plantations now teaming with the golden
grain, and the distant mountains leading
enchantment the view—all form a com
bination that'cannot fail to delight tho
Dul that appreciates the beauties of nature,
and inako/it a real pleasure to take a trip
on this ttoble stream, especially when it can
be tall'll on the Etowah, with its fine ac
commodations and exce'lent officers.
ae crop prospects on this river are tol
blv good. It is now in the midst of wheat
rrest, and t he yield will be fully an av
erage crop. We suppose the average will
f I be nearly or quite ten bushels to the acre,
1 and the quality of the grain as fine as was
I ever raised. The corn, though sometimes
larger at this season, has seldom appeared
' more thrifty, and with good seasons, the
1 crop will be large. The cotton, as a gen
eral thing, is small, and the stand, in many
places, poor. Its late, however, is not yet
fully decided, and reasonable hopes may
be entertained of a fine crop.
We were delighted with the sight of
large crops of clover of luxuriant growth.
0 i Dr. Poullain’8 place, cultivated by Mr.
0- P. Morton, there is about 100 acres; on
Col. Yancey’s place there is about as much,
and many other places have from 20 to 50
acres. It is believed that the cr >p will av
erage nearly two tons to the acre. It it is
now being cut.
WU. ttc idles or lire Round Moun
tain Iron Works, where we were forcibly
reminded of the devastations of the ‘date
; , unpleasantness.” These works, that were
i sold before the war for 80,000 dollars in
gold, are now in ruius, and look like the
' remains of some old Baronial Castle. It
1 seems a great pity that some enterprising
■ capitalists should uot revive these valuable
works. There is, perhaps, no place on the
c ;utinent where there is such a rich com
bination of the all essential materials for
the profitabl' manufacture of iron. Here
is a mountain full of the best kind of ore,
1 yielding 05 per cent of pure iron of the
• best quality—sand stoue. in abundance,
that quaries out beautifully, plenty of good
' lime stone on the place, and a rich bed of
1 bituminous coal, only three miles dis
tant. in addition to this, then is bclong-
] : ing to this property about two thousand
ncivs if Woodland, from which to make
charcoal, and the works are less than a
1 half a mile from the river, which is naviga
bio a’l the year. Rarely are there so many
, facilities ^rouped together fur the profita
ble manufacture of irou, and th:re is a for-
xuueiu store for the enterprising men who
, shall take hold of it.
The Cornwall lrou Works are aiiar Ce
dar Bluff, on tl.e Chattooga river, and about
three miles distant from the Coosa. We re
gret that it was impractical to visit, on this
trip, those works, tint are now in success
ful operation, and turning out about 50
tons a week of excellent pig iron. We ate
told that tliis iron, that sold before the war
, for twenty dollars a tou, n w commands
forty-five.

CARD.
Rome, June 14th, 1869.
Mb. Editor:—Permit us through your
columns to express our si cere thauks to
some of the leading citizens of Rome, for
their c< rdial welcome to us as strangers
from the northern section of this country.
To Gnpt Elliott, who gave us a free passage
on his boat down the Coosa, to Round
Mountain and back giving us extreme
pleasure in viewing the beautiful scenery
or. the river, and some of the best planta
tions in ail this region; also, to . Col. Hul-
bert, Superintendent of the Western & At
lantic Railroad, an J Col. Cothran, Presi
dent of the Rome Road, who give us a free
pass from Atlanta to Rome and back. We
can truly say we never have received such
a cordial welcome, or been treated with
more kindness than we have received since
our arrival at Atlauta, and this places—
Surely it would be an ungrateful heart that
would not hold in grateful remembrance
the names of those who have shown us such
unexpected hospitality.
We hare had abundant evidence that a
Northern man who respects the opinions of
others, will be welcomed as a traveler, or a
citizen, and soon readily enter into busaiess
relations with you.. While we feel utterly
unable to enumerate those who have showu
us such unexpected expressions of welcome,
we h ipe He will abundantly reward them
who has said, “In as much as ye have
done it unto one of the least of them, ye
have done it unto me.”

Julian Hart ridge against the negro. Ex-
Gor. .James Johnson' conclndcs the argu
ment for the negro to-day. Wm. J. Clem
ent, White,, and Bichard 'White, colored,
ran for elei k of Chatham Superior Court.
W hite was elected, and Clement seeks to
displace him on the ground that White was
a negro, and therefore, ineligible to of
fice.
Judge Schley ruled that the negro was
ineligible to office, and the case was taken
up.
Some minor questions were raised iuclu-
dink the piopriety of a continuance, the
admission and exclusion of testimony, and
privilege of argument.
But the main interest and argument
clustered around the great central ques
tion.
We quote from the brief of counsel, for
the bencfit-5f lawyers :

Many reports of occurences in this town
will find their way to the press; and for
tlie purpose of giving you, and through you
the people at large, a- correct account of
them, I write this letter.
In March last the office of Sheriff was
made vacant in this county by the absence
of John 0. Norris, from this county; be
had no deputy, though, he-has filled the of
fice ever since his election, about a year
ago. The Ordinary of this county, in view
of the appreachiog term o" the Superior
Court and other emergencies, after takin
legal advice, both here and elsewhere, pass
ed an order appointing Mr. John Raley,
an old and experienced officer to fill the
vacancy, ad interim. This order was en
tered on his minutes, reciting that he had
evidence that the former Sheriff hid left
with no intention of returning.
On the fiivt Monday Tn April following
the presiding Judge, Judge Andrews, at
the openingDfthe court* put au order ou
his minutes reciting the absence of the
Sheriff, and that there was no depnty, and
appointed Mr. Raley Sheriff to serve as
such daring the term&nd for ten days af
terward, as provided by the code 'of the
State. The Cade further provides (see
sections 251 and 252 ot lrwiu's revised
Code) that if after the expiration of ton
days, the officer vacating his office does not
appear, theappointee may contmne as such
until there is an appointment or election.
The 251st sectiou, under which the Judge
made liis appointment in April, provides
“if there is a vacancy in the Clerk (Slier-,
iff for the same.provision applies to both)
and his depnty for any reason do not act
as Clerk (Sheriff) “who holds his office
daring the time and for/ten days thereaf
ter.”
The Hon. A. H Stephens has written
long and elaborate letter to the National
Intelligencer, givi i'his views as to the
Mr. Norris did not return to the county* prinffe cause cf the war between the North
until the 4th day of June, and then with a
military escort commanded by Col. Hughes
of the U. S: A; he came with a paper sigu-
e i by Gov. Bullock deciding the question
of liis right to the office of Sheriff in his
favor. During Norris’, absence it'is known
that- he was in Atlanta, in constant consul
tation with the Governor. With'this pa
per, signed by Gov. Bullosk, which Norris
brought to this place, came orders from
Geu. Terry to the commandant at this post,
instructing him to. recognize Norris as
Sheriff, and to furnish him men when de
manded.
Of course I cannot say what these or
ders were precisely, but the sequel will
show that Norris had full power to use the
eutire command for his purposes when ne
cessity required it, and that he was to be
the Judge of that necessity. There can be
no question but that Gov. Bullock and
Gen. Terry both knew that there was a
Sheriff in office in ‘ arreu county acting
under authority, when the decision and or
ders were made. On the 5th day of June
Judge Andrews passed ti e depot at this
place, and was called upou by the officers
of this command to enlighten them upon
the vexed question; but he veiy properly
declined to express an opinion, aud said
that the identical question y as then pend
ing before h ; m, and in' a few days he would
decide it.
Col. Hughes, Judge Andrews and Mr.
Norris went en the train together, and Col.
Hughes had full knowledge of J udge An
drew’s views and intentions; be went to At
ianta with Norris, and it is highly proba
ble—almost certain—that he coumunicated
to his chief an J Gov. Bullock the conversa
tion with the Judge on tbe7thof Jane.—
Norris retained with an additional fiirce of
about 130 men, and went with them into
camp; additional orders came to the com
mand, it is supposed, for in abont three
hours after his arrival he ordered a detach-
rnent of soldiers to arrest the acting Sher
iff Raley, refused to show his authority
when demanded by Raley, refused to give
time for suing out heheas corpus, ami in less
than one hour, at the bead of a . detaeh-
ment-of thirty or forty soldiers, with a coma
missioned officer, marched him to jail and
put him iu the dungeon. The best that 1
could do was to get the wiit returnable on
Tuesday morning, the Sth, and had copies
of it served on Norris, Major- Van Wart,
the commander and the Lieutehai t of the
guard.
Ou the night of the 8th, Norris, with his
squad, arrested -Messrs. E. E. Cody E. ' S.
Cody, Jas. M. Cody, H. Martin and A. J.
Hartley, refusing to show or state any au
thority when demanded. One was taken
from his bed at a late hoar of the night in
the presence of his family; two others taken
fro u their beds, and after the arrest of one,
his gun and pistol take from the house
ami e-a- ried away*by Norris; all were lodg-
ed in jail immediately on their ariest. On
the morning'of the 8th Kalby was produc
ed under the writ of Norris.
Major Van Wart. I am glad to. say; re
spected the process, and anawe ed, denyiug
custody, but that bis command was only
acting as' posse comalatns under orders
from his superior officer at Atlanta. Nor
ris, with groat reluciiiucc, made his return
and with it affidavits and warrants under
the hand of a Notary Publie ex officio J.
P. of Fulton county. Tho affidavits were
made by Norris himself and put into his
hand for execution, with orders to take the
parties before the Notary lip Atlanta, or
someiudioial officer. Sgmo plugging an
assault with iutent to murder him (Norris)
some an assault with'intent to rob jail keys,
some for IreeiDg a party from jail. It is
not known whether the genius of -the At
torney General of the'State was employed
in these specimen's of criminal pleading,
but Mr. Norris stated in open con-t that he
was counsel and had been telegraped f«;r to
prosecute the cases.
No one will deny but that these arrests
and iniprisopnionts were illegal, poiitrary
to, and in defiance of |aw But the parlies
all being apxiqns to mept the pharges,
waived ail objections and proposed to give
these recognizances with any amount of
bon I for their appearance at any court in
the county in which the crimes were charg
ed to. have been committed. This Norris
resisted, and, with a force of fifty men or
more at command, urged the confinement
of all in jflil. The judge,.Dr. R. W. Hub-
herd, Ordinary, decided ip favor of tho pm
tjon for hail and released them ou strong
bends at (.heir oiyu request.
On tho afternoon of the same day an in
junction was served on Norris, issuing from
Judge Andrews, commanding him to per
form no official act until the further order
of the court-. Here tho matter now rests,
and hut for this, ip twelve hours the coun
ty prison would hape heeq made n bastile
for Norris an 1‘Gov/Bullock. It remains
tobe sepn whether or'%8 fpflp! Atjuftti
will direct ti» to respect this process of
-the court or not, and whether Gen. Terry
will, sustain him .in defiance of the law.
As bad asNorris’ couduot has been, all
thi.se wautan'and wicked violations of law,
and'lhe liberties of tho oLizen are plainly
referable to a faithless Executive, whose
motive, I fear, is to irritate our people to
antagonism with the military, and use this
for purposes foreign to. t]je popstitutional
duties of his office, and it doubtless will ex
cite wqnder that tho commander of this
militaiy department should suffer his pow
er to be used for such illegal purposes.
Arc we living T uuder a Constitution which
protects life,, liberty and property ? Instead
of having an Executive to maiutain the
honor and defend his State, wS have one
who pjotsaad contrives to oppress thecit;-
zeus and trample upon their liberties If
crime has been committed in this commu
nity, it ought to be and can.be investigated.
The acting Sheriff, Raley, is'ajije and
ling to exeepte any process, and C ?P pom-
;i.and a ptsse posJi contitatns from thp body
of the citizens, if necessary without aid of
the military. But this is not what they
want. A peaceful administration of the
law would not suit ther purposes. Strifes
and confusions arc quite neceuary to in
flame and keep'open wounds which are fast
healing.
I am happy fo say that this plot has thus
far miscarried; though the provocation has
been great, our people have born it with
manhood and patience. The first known
act of Gov. Bollock in this matter was to
decide wliowan the lawful Sheriff of War
ren county. Whence comes this right of
the Executive Department to assume a
function which belongs to another co-ordi
nate branch of the government, to decide
all judical questions ? The usurpation ap
pears the more flagrant when this decision
was put in force by him, with the military
to back it, after he knew that the exact
question was pendisg in the Superior
Court, and that too, before a Judge of his
own selection. For all the illegal arrests
an l restraints npon liberty which followed.
Gov. Bollock must he held responsible be
fore the tribunals of public opinion.
It affords me pleasure to add that, in the
performance of their delicate duties, the
commander of the troops, with officers and
men under him, without an exception, con
ducted themselves with eminent propriety
and a jnst regard for the sensibilities ef oar
people. No good citizen desires to assail

and the South, and closing with sogie spec
ulations as to out political future. We copy
the concluding paragraphs of the letter :
“And now, Messrs, editors, do you ask,
Cttibono? Why so much written upon
the dead issues of the past, when questions
of so mnch magnitude of a practical char
acter press jpon the public mind ? If so,
the reply is two-fold.
First. To vindicate the truth of 1 istory,
which is itself a high duty on the part of
any one woo has it in their power to do it;
and in the second place, to show the people
of these States, in this vindication, not on
ly the rue cause, the real causa contain of
the late war, but the real cause of their
present troubles. The Federal maohinety
lor the lasL tea years has been abnormal in
its action. It wiDt he brought back to the
Jeffosonian doctrines, and made -to confirm
its workings with the organic principles of
its stractoro, before there can possibly be a
return of the days of peace, harmony, pros-
f erity and happiness, which formerly mark
ed our course. There is no hope for con
stitutional liberty on this continent. Judge
Nicholas may dream dreams about
another constitutional amendment, provid
ing a new mode of electing the Presideet,
but the remedy lies in no snch device as
that. It lies simply in bringing back the
government in its administration to origin
al first principles. This is to be done not
by secession, however rightful and efficient
a remedy that might be. That is aban
doned. Nor is it to be done by force or vi
olence of any kidd, except the force of rea
son and the power of truth. It is to be
done, if at all, at the ballot box. Free in
stitutions are more generally lost than es
tablished, or strengthened by a resort to
physical force. They are eminently the
achievement of virtne, patriotism and rea
son.
That our institutions, and even nominal
form of government is now in great danger,
the prudent, sagacious and wise everywhere
virtually admit. A n able edit/rial in your
own paper, not long smee, put the pertinent
and grave question, “Whither are we
drifting ?” To this question I take the oc
casion for one to give you a direct and pos
itive answer. We are drifting to consoli
dation and empire, and will land there at
no distant period aa certainlv as the sun
will set this, day, uulcss the people of the
several States awake to a proper apprecia
tion of the danger, and save themselves
from the impending catastrophe by arrest
ing the present tendency of public affairs.
This they can properly do only at the ' bal
lot box. All friends ol constitutional liber
ty, in every section of the Slate, must unite
in this grand effort They must seriously
consider, and even reconsider many ques
tions which they havegiveu but slight at
tention heretofore. They 'must acquaint
themselves with the principles of their gov
ernment, ind provide security for the fu
ture by studying aud correcting the errors
of the past.
“ 1 his is the only h -pe, as I have stated,
for the continuance of even our present
nominal form of government. Depend up
on it, thee is no difference between con
solidation pud empire. 'No difference be
tween centralism and imperialism. The
end of cither as well as all of these, is the
overthrow of liberty and the establishment
of despotism, i give you the words of
truth in gi eat earnestness-swords which;
however received or heeded now, will he
rendered etejwHy Ariifi by the develop
ments of the future,”
Yours, mostyespectfully,
B. Stephens.’
tifyingyourself with the best interests of
the country; and that you intend to make
a law abiding useful citizen. We are can
did enough to state, that as ui ich as we
need population.and labor,and eapital, rath
er tham see Georgia filled up with an aban
doned and refuse population from poor-
houses, j ils, aud vice, we would prefer that
her lands should-remain forever unoccupied
and untilled, and that all her vast resour
ces and capabilities should lie dormant un
til doomsday. Therefore lei it be 'under
stood, that we do not invite the indolent,
the dissipated, and the vicious, but that we
will n;ee: the virtuous, the industrious, and
the'good, at the very threshold, and
whether they be rich or poor, titled or unti
tled, we will give them the hand of eortl ial
welcome and kindly attention;we will pro
tect them against imposition,aid them in
finding homes and employment,and extend
to them all the good offices of a gencroue
and hospitable people. The land and Im

street, fronting the railroad,and is open at

It will doubtless bo of some interest to
the people of Georgia to know, that Col.
Samuel Weil Foreign Commissioner of Ini

He left this city, for {Jttfopa, on &ye$

will keep me advised of his movements,and
the publie shall have the benefit i>f all
items of interest connected with his mission.
Among the documents carried out by Gel.
Weil is a manuscript circular, prepared by
the undersigned, and to be printed aqd pir-
culltpd lq fcjurope by the Fbreign Commis

[Geo. D. Prentice—himself one of the
most gifted of American bards—thinks
that no living poet can surpass the grace
fulness and beauty of the following lines
from the muse of Amelia. They are ex
ceedingly beautiful.—San Francisco Spec
tator.
Pale star, that with thy soft sad light
Came out upon my bridal eve,
I have a song lo sing to-night,
Before thou tak’stthy mournful leave.
Since then so softly time hath stirr’d,
That months have almost seemed like
honrs,
And I am like a little bird
That slept too kiag among the flowers,
And, waking, sits with the waveless wing,
Soft ranging ’mid the shades of even;
But, ok. with sadder heart I sing— -
I sing of one who dwells in heaven.
Tho winds are soft the clouds are few,
And tendcrest thoughts my heart be
guile,
As floating up through mist and dew,
The pale young moon comes up and iles;
And to the green resounding shore
In silvery troops the ripples crowd,
Till all the ocean, dimpled o’er,
Lifts np its voice and laughs aloud ;
And star, on star, all soft and calm,
Floats up on aroh serenely bine:
And lost to earth and sdteeped in balm,
My spirit floats in either too.
Loved one 1 though lost to human sight,
I feel thy spirit lingering near,
As softly as I feel the light,
That tremhltsthrough the atmosphere ;
As in some temple’s holy shades,
Though mute the hymn and hush’d the
prayer, ,
A solemn awe the said pervades,
Which tells that worship had been there,
A breath of incense, left alone
Where many, a censer swung aronnd,
Will thrill the wanderer like a tone
Who treads on consecrated ground.
I know thy snnl, from worlds of bliss,
That stoops awhile to dwell with me,
Hath caught the prayer I breathed in this,
That I at last might dwell with thee.
I hear a murmur from the seas,
That thrills me like thy spirit sighs :
I hear a voice in every breeze,
That made to mine its low replies—
A voice all low and sweet like thine;
It gives nn answer to my prayer,
And brings my soul from heaven a sign
That 1 shall know and meet the there.
I’ll know thee thereby that sweet face,
Round which a tender halo plays,
Still touched with that expressive grace
That made thee fovoly all thy days :
By that sweet smile that a’er it shed
Abeanty like the light of even,
Whose soft expression never fled,
Even when its seal had flown to heaven,
I’ll know thee by tho starry crown
That glitters in thy raven hair;
Oh 1 by these blessed signs alone
I’ll know thee—I’ll know the there.
For ah 1 thine eye, within whose sphere
The sweets of yonth and beauty met,
That swam in love and seftness here,
Most swim in love and softness yet.
For ah ! its dark and liquid beams,
Though saddeudbya thousands sighs,
Were holier than the light that streams
Down from the gates of Paradise—
Were bright and ladiant as the morn,
Yet soft and dewy as the eve :
Too sad tor eyes where smiles are born,
Too young for ears that learn to grieTe.
I wonder if this cool sweet breeze
Hath touched thy lips aud. farm'd thy
brow,
For all my spirit hears and sees
Recalls theo to my memory now;
For every hour wo breath apart,
Will blit increase, if that can be,
The lnvo tliat fills this little heart,
Already filled to full of tbee.
Yet many a tear th rse eye ■ must weep,
And utaqynfii qifost he forgiyea,
Jilt these pale lids si all sink t- sleep—
Ere then ajid I shall, meet in heaven
• Died —In Floyd county, Ga., May 22d,
1869, Emily. Angelise, daughter of Jas.
and Perninah Allcorn, aged 32 years 4
months.
Strictly conscientious and self-denying,
the amiable qualitiesof “Angie” were known
and appreciated by those who knew her
best. It had been a life study to render
her father’s family happy—of a mother’s
love and care they had been robbed by
death. Her duty was plain, and she did
not swerve for an instant in its fulfillment'
If the jewels of our Heavenly father were
only gleaned from the higher and more fa
vored walks.of ‘ life, it’were useless to re
cord a passing tribute to the memory of
our lost friend, but feeling that the word
of praise ou earth does not always fall real
ly where it is due, we are constrained to
‘'give honor to whom honor is due.”
In all the relations of life she verified
our Savior’s words when he said, “Whoever
will come i fter me, let him deny himself
and take up his cross daily, and follow
me.” Although the work of Grace did
not produce that overwhelming joy she’d
anticipated, her very life embodied the
workings of God.
She exhibited great patience doringa pain
fal illness. To serve those whom she had
so long loved seemed her greatest reason
fora prolonged life; “but death,” said she
has no terrors—God's will must be done/’
and frequently exclaimed, “all is well, all 13
well.” Let it be the constant aim of those
who survive her, to meet her with those
whom God, in his wisdom has borne from
earth to Heaven. A Friend.

Death has again entered the precincts

Lou Emma—onr Lou,—the most affec
tionate—the most beautiful and the bright
ost intellect of her age that I ever knew,
is no more She was bom on the 14th
of J one, 1868, and died the 21st of Mri,
in the bosom of her doting parents, Wm
S. and Molly W. Battle, of Polk county,
Ga. Her disease Diptheria, her sufferings
intense; but never has death claimed a love
lier victim. She was indeed a lovely child
—the idol of the family, and more par
ticularly of her now broken-hearted moth
er. Scarcely three years of age, yet by
all who knew her, she was said to be as in-
telligent as most of children at six or sev-
i.
But midst all her loveliness, it has
pleased Him who doeth all things well, to
take her from that fond mother’s bosom to
His own, and there will she rest, free from
all affliction and pain till the great morn of
the resurrection. Be comforted, dear moth
er, for darling little Loufell asleep in Christ

and that lovely voice; you shall see her bye
