The Execution Next Friday, jhe
prospect is fair Tor a ‘‘large and cuthtjsias
tio” turu-out to witness the hanging which
takes place in EJberton next Friday. A
g neral outporing of Africa is expected, all
the uegrocs in this cCUnty, and large num
bers from the adjoining counties in this
State and South Carolina, will likely be in
attendance. Everything but red-hot stoves
will be kept underlock and key from i hurs
duy evening till Saturday morning.
The gallows is being erected in the rear
of the Male Academy, and ws think, from
the character of the gentleman who has the
matter in charge, every thing will be prop
erly arranged.
Proper precautions are being taken for
the preservation of good order on the day
of the execution. The Sheriff will have a
large and efficient posse to assist- him iu
keeping the crowd at a respectful distance
from the scaffold and also to render whatev
er assistance may be necessary in the per
formance of the unpleasant task devolving
upon him. The Town Marshal will appoint
a si'fficient corps of assistants to cnab.c him
to preserve order throughout the town, and
'from the kiawn character of this officer,
we have no fear but that his duty will be
well performed.
Disagreeable though .the task will be to
us, wc will Lc ou hand to witness the exe
cution, in order to give a full report of the
same, which, though not pleasant reading to
the refined, is yet necessary to the history
of the age we live in.
We were informed a short time since by
one of the workmen engaged in building
the new Male Academy that when money
was plentiful with the building com
mittee the weathercock that surmounts the
belfry would flap his wings and crow and
the work would progress rapidly. We no
ticed in passiug on Monday that everything
was quiet about the building, that the wings
of the bird hung limp, and that he did not
flap nor crow worth a cent. Why is this thus ?
Why ?—Why not get up a pic-nic for
the benefit of the little ones of the town
and county ? Such an occasion is one of raie
enjoyment for them and affords almost as
much pleasure to the older ones. Cannot
the Sunday-school teachers take this matter
under consideration and make something
cut of it ?
The humorous editor is down this week
with the —well, through courtesy, we will
gay mumps, which will spoil many a laugh,
as the serious editor has no more humor than
a well-behaved cow.
•Railroad Meetings.-Wc are request
ed to announce that a meeting of those citi
zens who favor an 'extension of the Wash
ington branch of the Georgia Railroad from
its present terminus at Washington, Wilkes
county, to Elberton, will be held at Mallo
rysville, in YVftkes county, on the first
Saturday in May, pn xitno.
A meeting of like character is to be-indd,
we believe, the first Tuesday
iu May;
The object of ttesp meetings Id to ascer
tain whether the. people wtll lake stock in
the proposed extension. Subscriptions of
stock will be received both in money and
lands, th.e proper valuation of lands sub
scribed to be obtained by the appointment
of one gentleman by the railroad company,
one by the owner, and those two to appoint
a third, whoso valuation is (*> he final. Op
tion is given the owner of the land,
er, to redeem thff bitid bjt the value
in money.
We hope these meetings will be wpll at
tended, and let a fair eflfoyt be made in be
half of this enterprise, so that if it fail all
bickering arising from that quarter shall
cease.

THE INDIAN WAR.
We are on the eve, it seems, of a war for
the extermination of the Indians on the
Western Plains. Our telegraphic dispatch
es confirm the massacre of Gen. Canby and
his colaborers in the matter of treating with
the Indians upon the principles of the So
ciety of Friends. The country is indignant
and demands that these savages be swept
from existence. The order now for an
advance along the whole line. Our Quaker
friends, with their peace principles ot Jus
tice, must take position in the rear. The
tierce spirit of the Anglo-Saxou will soon
crush out the remaining Aborigines who
impede the westward march of civilization
and modern development. Nothing is clear
er or surer than that the Caucasian will nev
er brook a rival rebellious race on this con
tinent, no matter what their natural rights
may be. The tale of the last of the Mohi
cans has been written. Very soon will the
last of the Modocs become the subject for
the pen of the novelist and poet, and chal
lenge only the interest of archselogical re
search to illustrate the history of the man
ct the Stone Ago. But, this is not the only
mission of the American, nor will “manifest
destiny” be satisfied until the “whole bound
less continent is ours.” In another gener
ation pjr two tlieflotd of Causasian. emigrants
from the East; flowing like An' irresistible
tide, will coyer every habitable spot, to the*
exclusion of every other race and kindred
and tongue", North and South, and East and
West.—[Chronicle cl Sentinel.
The Man Whom Grant Pardoned
Out of the Albany Penitentiary.— l
witnessed a singular spectacle on Pennsyl
vania avenue the other day —that of a gen
tleman gayly dressed and driving a fast,
team, and evidently iu excc’lcnt spirits. Yet
this gentleman is just out of the Albany
penitentiary, and he, only a short time ago,
stole hundreds ol thousands of dollars from
the Treasury. It was Major Hodges, the
thief who, by tbe interference of the Presi
dent, was not punished fer taking a vast
amount of the people’s money. He is warmly
welcomed by many of his old friends, which
shows the American people do not care
much for theft in itself, so that it is dohe in
a respectable and gigantic fashion. There
can be no question as to ihe facts in this
case. Major Hodges ribbed, tbe treasury
of tens of thousands of dollars,'and h£ is
not punished, simply because his social
standing was high. If he had stolen a
watch or a diamond pin he would still be in
the penitentiary, but to steal a hundred
thousand dollars is a safe and respectable
crime, and that is the lessou his life teaches
to the boys of America. — [Washington Let
ter to- tho Springfield Republican,
The Death of Gen. Edward R. Can
by.—The story which the telegraph tells of
the murder of Gen. Canby and others by
Capt. Jack and his Modocs, is terrible in its
curtness. Gen. Edward 11. Canby is well
known in this part of the country as one of
the many subservient tools scattered over
the South after the war by the Radicals. To
him was entrusted the task of crushing the
innocent people of South Carolina, and ele
vating their former slaves above them. It
is but simple justice to say that he perform
ed his part with enthusiastic thoroughness.
Wherever the negro was to be put in a po
sition to insult the white people, there was
Canby with his bayonets. Wherever a
Carolinian was to be oppressed —wherever
tyranny was the shortest method of solving
any question —legal, political or civil—there
was Canby and his troops. And now he is
dead —shot to death on the far plains of the
West. Wc will not presume to interpret
the manifestations of Providence, but who
among us allßpan say whether Capt. Jack,
in shooting Canby, avenged his own or South
Carolina’s wrongs. -[Savannah News.
A despatch gives the following from Grant
Parish : The negroes have barricaded them
selves in Colfax court house, numbered 400,
thoroughly armed. One hundred and fifty
then gathered from the surrounding 8 parts
es atid made an attack at Sunday noon ap
on the court bouse, which was stormed at
three o’clock. The negroes re fug eed in the
Court house, after further fighting displayed

on the court house, when negroes opened
fire, Captain iTarderot was "shot by Bowles,
it is.feared, fatally. They retreated outside
the court house and fired. The negroes’
shot came from the burning building. It is
reported that from eighty to oue hundred
negroes were killed, and were none to be
found for miles around. The ringleaders
; and white allies escaped,

■ firms the above report, tie saw eighteen or
twenty dead negroes, nnd brou>ht two hun

when the Southwestern left -Colfax Sunday
evening.
Some colored laborers engaged in grading j
tho extended capitol grounds in Washing- j
ton last week, struck their picks into an j
arched cell of brick works, in which was !
found a rusty iron sate about eighteen inch- i
es square. When this stile was broken i
open in the presence of Mr. Clark, the ar
‘ chitect, it was found to contain a gold doub- j
j loon, three guineas and srme crown pieces, ’
j bearing date 1740 to 1761'. There were |
also a pair of silver shoc-buckles, a gold
brooch, aud a package of deeds, some writ
ten on parchment, others on yellow paper.
The cbirography was quaint and dim, but
' cnobgh was deciphered to show, tliat tlie
doouuleuUriitfd hefbuged to Calvert Pope,
who once resided where the capital row
stands, aud whose plantation extended west

"PAIN KILLER,”
There can be no necessity, at tills late- day, for
the press to speak in commendatory terms of tills
remarkable medicine in order to promote its sale,
for it is a medicine that is known and apprecia
ted the wide world through. Whenever we speak
of the Pain Killer, as in the present instance, we
do so in behalf of the afflicted, rather than with
the view of advancing the interests of- the pro
prietors. For various diseases, such as rheu
matism. cholera, cholera-morbus, burns, sprains’
bruises, and so on to the end of the catalogue’
\vt are convinced that there is do remedy before
the people equal to Davis’ Vegetable “Pain Kill
er,” and we know that thousands upon thous
ands entertain the same belief. Certainly we
cannot refer to the history of any medicine
which equals that of the Pain Kille-. It was in
troduced in 18-10, and from that time to this its
sale, both at home and abroad, has constantly
and rapidly increased,and we rejoice at the high
reputation it has achieved, because this reputa
tion shows that it has been the means of relieving
a vast amount of human suffering We hope
the present proprietors of Davis’ Vegetable Pain
Killer will live to enjoy the prosperity they have
so fairly won.—apl6-6t
