THE GAZETTE. Wednesday, April 23,1873. Gborgia Press Association.— The annual meeting of the Association will be held at Americus on Wednesday, May, 16. The election for officeis will take place at this fiieetiog. By order of J. H. Estillj, President. W. G. WoidbY, Secretary. A. DUNN; Lsq. —On the 24th day of April, eighteen hundred and seventy-two, we issued the first number of The Gazette, and hence this number closes Vol. I We are finder many obligations to our Inends for their kindness to us during the past twelve months, and particularly are we in debted to those who by their promptness afforded us that financial aid which has en abled us to keep the machinery running. The patronage afforded us has been very liberal, fully as much so as we expected. But, while we feel like thanking those of our subscribers who have been prompt in paying the small stipend which we exact in consideration of furuishiDg a paper, there are othfcfs who we regret have not given us the opportunity of thanking them. We delight to have a chance, of thanking sub scribers, it makes our editorial blood tin gle and causes it to course through the edi torial veins with a lapidify equal to that ol the faithful mouser when espying its prey cut off from all retreat, or the movements of the Arab courser when feeling the hot breath of the prairie fire approach him.— Indeed, the pleasure exfprienced is one that has to be lelt in erder to be properly appre ciated. \Yfe have Carefully avoided appeal ing to subscribers for “back rations,” be cause we feared to injure their feeling*, well khdwing that time would bring Ihfioi up all right; but we fear that time, aged as he is, will outlast our frail body, and we be left in the lurch. Another reason why we feel it our duty to make this appeal is, we are the veriest numb-scull at keeping books, [right here is a chance for soan of the friends ow ing us to put in “or anything else,”] and we fear that if death should claim us before these little claims should be settled, (he ad ministrator or executor of our estate would have au infinite amount of trouble and vex ation in reducing the same to anything like symmetrical ship-shape. We therefore make this appeal in behalf of posterity as well as iu our own behalf, and indeed more in posterity's behalf than our own. Our friends will therefore see the propri ety of attending to this matter as soon as possible—the sooner the better. We hope we shall not have to allude to this subject again. Exchanges. —We are in receipt of the following valuable publications: JDemorest’s Monthly Magazine for May. Each number of this excellent monthly bears unmistakable evidence of substantial improvement. We find it to be highly ap preciated by the ladies. Young America, for May, by the same publisher, is a sprightly little work for the young cncs, and by them is looked for with avidity and read with interest. The llural ©arolinian, for April, should have been noticed last week, but it escaped our attention. When so much really valu able inl'oimation to the farmer can be ob tained for the small sum of §2, we do not see why this work should not be found in every house. Published by Walker, Evans & Cogswell, Charleston. A.Mlstaice. —Some of our readers con cluded from our railroad article last week that we were opposed to a road by the route last proposed. We do not desire to be so understood. The truth is we are in favor of any railroad we can get, and we want that Bpecdily. We hope all our citizens will give substantial encouragement to the efforts in behalf of this enterprise, so that it can soon be determined whether there is a pros pect of success in that direction. In the meantime we do not intend to lose Bight of the branch to the Air-Line. If we fail by the lower route, we must succeed by the upper, and wc iucline to the opinion that we must have that anyhow. Declined. —We have, after considera tion, concluded to decline an article receiv ed under the caption of “Envy.” We have not. the time to prepare the article for pub lication, and, if wo had, we doubt whether it would be well received by our readers.— We think we do the author a favor by pur suing this course. We are also in receipt of a communica tion post-marked Opelika, Ala., without the author’s name. This, of course, is declined. The People’s Clojiiinq Store.— Mr. W. A. Ramsey, the clothing man of Au gusta, announces a lull and complete stock of Clothing for men and boys, together with a Bupp’y of Hats, Caps, Iruuks, Valises, &c., and invites an examination. Dentistry. —Dr. Gurley gives notice to the people ot Elbcrton and vicinity that he will be in our town on the sth of May, for the purpose of offering his professional ser vices to the citizens for a few days. A weekly mail has been established be tween Washington and Lincoluton. A LIGHTHOUSE TRAGEDY. Last Tuesday there occurred at the Cape Itomain lighthouse gtatiorf a tragedy which is as terrible in its details, and in the mys tery which surrounds it, as the Brooklyn Goodrich tragedy. It is one of those hor rible mysteries that baffle all attempts at so lution, and around which a cloud of obscu rity is probably destined to bang forever. The facts of the case, as far as they can be gathered, are given by Air. Julius L. Lee, one of the assistant lighthouse keepers, and arc as follows: Capt. Andrew Johnson is the keeper of fix* lighthouse at Cape Remain, where he resided with his wife. On the evening of the Bth instant, about 5 o'clock, Capt. Johnson weut up to the lighthouse to light and trim the lamp for the Dight. He left his wife in the house, which is in sight ot the lighthouse, and in the yard of which she was seen by him up to six o’clock, when it became too dark to distinguish objects. At about six o’clock Mrs. Johnson, who, as has been previously stated, was in the yard, kissed her hand to her husband, who was in the lighthouse, and went within doors. At about half-past eight o’clock in the evening Julius L. Leo, one of the assist ant keepers, went to the lighthouse to re lieve Capt. Jolidsod. He arrived there at about fihy-five minutes past eight o’clock, and, after the two exchanged good night, Capt. Johnson departed for his home. In a few moments Lee went out on the piazza, and saw Capt. Johnson running towards the dwelling ol the assistants, crying out that his wife was dead. Lee immediately rushed down from the lighthouse, and, together with Mrs. NelLon, the wife of the other as sistant keeper, and his own wife, Mrs. Lee, proceeded to Capt, Johnson’s residence,when a horrible sight met their view. They found Capt. Johnson and Air. Nellson, his assist ant, standing over the body of Mrs. John son, which was lying dead in the centre ol the floor, clad in her night-clothes, and sur rounded by a pool of blood. A revolver, be longing to her husband, was lying by her side, but the chambers were not discharged. The deadly instrument with which the terrible deed had been committed was a ra zor, by which her throat had beeu cut fiom ear to ear. There had evidently been au attempt to use the pistol, which was not suc cessful, owing to the fact that it had been loaded for a long time. About the room was lying a lot ot wearing apparel ot the unfor tunate victim, and some ol her husband’s jewelry. All of her own jewelry, however, was missing, as was also a lot of money which she had in her possession at the time of her death. The door leading lrom the room to the piazza, which fastened on the inside, was opeo, and an attempt had evi dently been made to pass out ot it. In the garden below a pair of gold spectacles be longing to the deceased were found. Be yond these there was no trace or clue as to the manner in which the unfortunate woman had met her death*- .Previous to the trage dy Mrs. Johnson had called upon her neigh bor, Mrs. Lee, and appeared to be in good health and cheerful spirits. Capt. Johnson states that she had once told him that she had on a previous occasion attempted to take her own life, and that on several coccasions she had talked and acted us if she was a lit tle “flighty.” The deceased was a native of Sweden, but had lived in this country for twenty-two years. At the time of her death she was fifty-three years old. The husbaud, who was almost distracted, made a tempora ry coffin on the following day, and dispatch ed a messenger to McCle'lanville for the cor oner, but at the time that our informant left the scene of the tragedy that officer had not arrived. The whole affair is clouded in mystery, and it is impossible to say whether the unfor tunate lady committed suicide or was mur dered for her money and jewelry. As soon as the inquest is held further particulars may be developed, but the case in its present aspect rivals the mystery which hangs over the late tragedy in Brooklyn, in which Mr. Goodrich lost his life, and which has here tofore baffled all attempts at a solution.— Capt. Johnson and his wife, as all the wit nesses who knew him testify, lived in the most pleasant relations with each other, and whether the unfortunate woman in a fit of temporary insanity took her own life, or whether she was murdered by some un known villain, is a question that has yet to be determined. [Charleston News and Courier. Trouble in Dakien. —A special dis patch tft the Savannah Advertiser, of the date of the 10th inst., gives information of a serious difficulty between the white and colored people of Mclntosh county. The sheriff attempted to arrest a negro outlaw, and in so doing provoked the indignation of the entire colored population. The negroes assembled, armed, in the town of Darien and attempted to rescue the prisoner. The whites armed themselves, also, protected the sheriff and prevented a rescue. A collision between the'armed bodies seemed at one time inevitable, but happily was averted and bloodshed prevented. Hindman's Murderer. —A dispatch from Memphis says: An unsuccessful at tempt has been made for the release on hab eas corpus of Vaughn, under arrest for the murder of Gen. E indman. It is understood that he has made a confession, implicating persons in Helena, but the police authorities refuse to give any information concerning the case. The Air-Line Railroad will be complete very soon, says the Atlanta Herald, and its connections closed all through to New York. It is rumored that an extensive combination has been formed to lease or buy up the whole line through from New York to Mont gomery and thence to New Orleans, A DAYS WORK IN GALVESTON A horrible summary of one day’s brutal and bloody- work in Galveston, Texas, illus trative of the insecurity of life m the Lone Star State, comes to us in a Galveston paper of the Bth. The first item occurs on Tnes* day and forms a fit prelude to the terrible and Unprovoked assaults on the day follow ifig,. c quote : Sunday night threo men got into an altercation about a horse and u af?y which McKay had. loaned two ot thett'i. The dispute become ‘so violent that McKay lost his temper, and turning upon Clarke, who was nearest, beat him in a most horrible manner over the head with a load ed whip. He then paid his attentions to Berglt, whom lie hurt severely. Clarke was taken to the hospital, where his wounds were dressed. He was in a terrible condition and was a mass of biood from head to foot. The second is the case ot two men getting into a dispute over a shirt, when one stepped behind the other and drove a large, rusty knife into his back, penetrating the left lung, from which he will probably die. 1 he third and most lamentable occutience and which excited the revengeful feelings of the inhabitants so powerfully that a' furor of excitement was created, and threats of lynching the madman were freely incfulgcd. One Helms, arriving in the city, took lodg ings at the Chicago House. After alarming the inmates he walked out Sunday night, went into the market and cut one man under the arm without any warning; left the mar ket house and stabbed another in the back; then broke into a run, and meeting a gray headed man, cut him in the back as he was running, stubbed a man named Burns a little further on, returned and passing through a party of four, walked botweeu one and the wall aud stabbed him; his com rades informed an officer named who in endeavoring to arrest the dangerous luffian, was stabbed in the breast, knocked down and stabbed twice while dowa, from which wounds he subsequently died, Two men coming to his aid, one of them had his coat drawn over his arms, and before he knew it the knife was buried iu his back. This ends the series of crimes, and the only possible explanation of it seems to be that the desperado was recovering from an attack of mania a-potu. Railroad Monopolies. —The experi ence of New Jersey fer over twenty years in the Camden and Amboy Railroad has produced widespread prejudice against the grant ot exclusive privileges to great corpo rations. This prejudice is shared by many other States from similar experiences, and has produced souie reactionary legislation. A general railroad law has been enacted in New Jersey, the result of which will be the construciiou under its provisions of several new roads to cross the State. The fight for the old monopoly was a fierce one, and King Tom Scott brought all bis resources to bear to sustain it, but in vain, fie bad leased the road for nine hundred and ninety-nine years for the Rennsylvauia Central, agreeing to pay ten per cent, dividends on the capital stock, and this bargain he lias to stick to. But now he will have to compete with seve ral roads already projected, and which, in a few years, will come in to share the enor mous profits the Camden and Amboy has enjoyed exclusively for twenty years. The Rcunsylvania Constitutional Conven tion, now in session, has also the subject of railrjad monopolies before it. It has adopt ed an article providing against the consolida tion of connecting lines, and throwing wide open the door of competition. It prohibits combinations fur discrimination in freights, embarking in mining and manufacturing enterprises, and speculations in real estate. It imposts other healthful restrictions. In the western States meetings and or ganizations arc formed to check the grasp ing power and formidable combinations of the railroad interest from which the great f rming industry of that section suffers. [Constitutionalist. Prince Fred. —We understand from good authority that Grant contemplates a scheme to reward Sheridan for his compla cency and punish Sherman for his contu macy in the matter of their different treat ment of his boy Freddie. Sherman’s place will be made so unpleasant to him—the Secretary of War really being General of the Army dcw —that his high spirit will take offence and induce him to resign. Of course Sheridan then steps in. How do the Sher man boys—the friends of “Old Tceumseh” —like this ? They will probably like it as much as Sherman now likes Grant. [Cincinnati Enquirer. Forney on Connecticut. —The Che valier Forney secs the handwriting on the wall. In the Press of the 9th inst. he has this to say : Five thousand Democratic majority in Connecticut is a surprising loss for the Re publican, and we fear cannot be wholly laid to the charge oflocal Republican dissensions though the fact that 3,000 ol the loss oc curred in the one city of New Haven points in that direction. The Credit Mobilier ex posures and the back salary grab must doubt less be held largely responsible. Dr. Josiah C. Nott, a distinguished citi* zen of Mobile, died on the 31st ult., aged sixty-nine years. His father, Abraham Nott, a native of Connecticut, settled in South Carolina in early life, and represent ed the State in 1800. The deceased was Medical Director in the Confederate service during the rebellion under General Bragg. DOWN AMONG THE DEAD. Anxious to obtain a view of the ship be low the water, the Herald correspondent procured a diving jrurt, with the permission and under the direction of the wrecker and divers-who were at work tipon the hull, and descended into the interior of the wreck. The waters were clear and every object plainly visible around the ship where she lay on'the reef. It was the first time for the correspondent to seek ipjbrjimtiojn beneath the waters, and the sensation is almost inde scribable. The air from above, which is furnished through the rubber tube, comes with a hissing sound, producing a strange feeliug. I shudder at the thought of being immersed so deeply, and how slight an acci dent would insure instant destruction. All around the objects looked weird-like, the glasses in the casque magnifying the al ready bloated forms into twice their size The waters are very cold, and a chilly feel ing creeps over me at first, but as I proceed it wears away and I enter upou the task I have undertaken with more uerve thau I fancied I possessed. The immense hull lies well down on the port side, which is broken in several places from contact with the reef. Fish were swimming around eagerly devour ing the particles of food which arc to be picked up. Ricking my way towards the hull I catch hold of a rope and scramble up the deck. The place where I have descended is where the ship parted, and a sectional view of the hull and cargo is obtained. The forward hatch is open and I peer down the hold. Oh ! what a spectacle is presented ! The cargo has broken bulk aud lays heaped up in a confused mass; bodies of men aud wo men, bruised and torn, were jammed among the eases and crates. It is a horrible sight to look upon, and the magnifying powers of the orbs through which 1 gaze upon it ren ders it all the more horrible. Fishes swim in and cut among the bodies and boxes, feasting upon the bodies of the dead. Limbs are strewn around, having broken off Iroin the body from the continual action of the waters, which, when agitated drive against the ugly pieces of the broken hull that stick up here and render my movements vciy hazardous. Having seen enough of this part of the sunken horror, i proceed lowaidsone of the stecragi cabins, the one where all the women and children were drowned as they lay in their bunks. Scram bling along the deck, guided by the rope from above, and assisted by one of the di vers who has undertaken to conduct me through tie wreck, I reached the compan ion-way. It the sight iu the hold among the cargo was horrible, the one that now met my gaze was ten times more so. There, lying in an immense heap, were a hundred or more bodies They looked for all the world as if they were alive, with arms dis located, eyes staring wildly, faces grinning as it were at y on and moving backward aud forward with the under current, some were dressed, many were halt nude. Children were clinging to their mothers and stout men were clasping their wives and seeming as if they met their fate with calm resignation. No description of the bodies brought to the surface could convey an idea ot the horrid sight in that cabin. I close my eyes and motion to my conductor my readiness to leave. I have seen enough in that charnel house, the recollectiou of which will never faae. My conductor motions me towards the steerage cabin, where the men were by themselves, and where there was such a rush for the compauion-way. Reeringdown into that cabin I saw a similar picture of death. Bodies of stalwart men, old and young, were hustied together on the stair way, giving—from their distended nostrils, gaping mouths and staring, glassy eyes some conception of ti e ten or which seized them as they vainly struggled to reach the deck, but were prevented by the waves which swept over the ship as she keeled over aud filled the cabin. From another part of the vessel I obtain ed a view ot the sleeping apartment. Here piled up in heaps on the port side, were numbers ot bodies of men, and strewn among them bed-clothing of one kind and another. From contiuual knocking against the stanch ions and sharp, jagged woodwork which is splintered and broken from the linings of the bunks, the faces and limbs of these dead are more ghastly than any I have ever 3ecn. Imagination cannot picture anything more terrible than what was in this compartment. The flesh is torn from the laces of rnaDy of the dead j others again are bruised and bat tered about their heads and faces, which are red and bloody, and in striking contrast to the pale, livid features of others, which the action of the waters has not disturbed. While I stand here another of the divers descends and commences to send up some of the bodies. He, however, is more intent upou securing the cargo than sending up the bodies, and only does so now to gain ac cess to some boxes and trunks which were lying beoeath them. Having seen enough ef the horrors be neath the water on that fatal reef—horrors of the deep which will never be erased from my vision—l decided to go above, and mo tioned accordingly to the men who were above in the boat, and pumping down tome the necessary supply of air to sustain life, in a few minutes I was once more at the sur face gazing upon the light of heaven and experiencing a sensation of relief at having left the chambers of death in the cabins ot the iil-fated Atlantic. For some time I could scarcely realize that I was above the water. Below everything had a greenish hue, and as the sunlight struck across my eyes I experienced a strange emotion about them. Although the undertaking was a hazardous one and the scenes below appall ing, it is well I went down and am thus en abled to convey feebly something of an idea of the hjdden scenes of a calamity which has caused the whole world to mourn. The War in Louisiana. —A conference j of city members of the Fusion General As- ! sembly and a committee of the presidents of the Independent Club of New Orleans is sued an address to the people, of which the following arc extracts : “Public opinion throughout ihe Union is against the usurpation, and onr only danger, if there be any, will eouie from ourselves. If the people of Louisiana will sanction by obedience and ac juiescenee. this govern ment, they will give it the only validity it can ever acquire. It is only by our own submission that our cause can be defeated. We recommend the people of the several parishes, for the purpose ot most effectual resistance to this usurpation, and of mutual defence, to join the People’s League of Louisiana by the formation of parish coun cils. In correspondence with the Central Council at New Orleans. We must remem ber that there can be no de fa do govern ment as against a de jure government in a State, and that the only way by which the Kellogg usurpation can become established as a government is by acquiescence of the people; that the issue presented in theLou isana case to Congress aud the people of other States is neither a party nor a section al one, aud for this reason we have the sup port of a large and influential section of the Republican party, as well as of the elements which composed the Liberal party in the late Presidential contest. The people of New Orleans are not t<> pay taxes, cannot in fact pay them, nor arc they giving any recogni tion to the usurpers.” A Gipsy Convention in Washington. —Ten bands of gipseys are now concentra ted at Crystal Springs, north of this city, five cf whom made this District their win ter quarters. They ;re uow waiting for other bands to join them in a kind of annu al conventiou before separating for the com ing season, They live in small tents or cab ins, which they erect whenever night overtakes them, and some of the bands have a sort ot an ambulance wagon in which they sleep. Their acknowledged means of live lihood are peddling and horse trading for the men, and fortune telling for the women; but the policemen think that much of the horse stealing canied on in Maryland and Virgiuia during the past two months lias been done by the members of some of these gangs. Sometimes they have many fine horses, and at ether times only a few, but always ready to trade. The chief is an old man, knov;r, only by the name of Crabtree, who seems to be respected and obeyed by all the band. On the arrival of some few more bahds, which are expected from the South and West, they will separate again and be scattered all over the country. [Washington Star.

A “Ping Around the Moon.” —The common belief that a halo round the moon or sun is a prognostic of unpleasant weath er is pronounced wrong to a certain extent. A scientific writer asserts that all his obser vations, during many years, have pointed to the inference that halos indicate a change of temperature, but arc indicative of transi tion from dry to wet, as well as from wet and dry weather. lie thinks the popular notion that they are the precursors of storms is certainly exaggerated. ♦<£> The Jackson Whig and Tribune tells of a woman who sent her husband to buy a jug of molasses. He got drunk, and fetched home the jug filled with whiskey. She took it up, smelt it, set it back, and then squar ing herself, arms akimbo and eyes flashing, she exclaimed, “Wbar’s them molasses?” The old man smiled and winked pleasantly, and, waving his left hand propiliatingly, exclaimed, '‘them’s they !” He is now con valescent, but the jug is hopelessly de ranged.

Mr. Editor: I notice in the Elbertoa Gazette a card over the signature *f J S. Hammond, in answer to which I have this to say: First—That my fall name not appearing under my card was evidently an oversight of the editor, since it was affixed by mysalt and forwarded by a friend un changed. Second—fiis denial of having refused to tHke $8.20, which he justly owed me, in part payment of his extraordinary bill is an infamous and deliberate lie. Third—That if by duplicatinf. and triplicating our orders he mean* to say that we eat as much as wc wished, he is not far from right; but if he wishes to convey the impression that we eat more than one meal edeh, the very face of the assertion bears the impress ®f a false hood He advertised meals at Fifty Cts. each, and of course when he departs from it he is guilty of practicing a base and ungentleirtanfy fraud upon his customers. Therefore, I reiterate every syl- ? lable contained in my first card. J.S, A SULK Y. NOTICE. To the Citizens of Elberton and Vicinity.
