COLTJMBtTS: largest city circulation. Monday Morning, April AT, 1887. The Lumpkin Plaindealer learns that on Sunday morning last, 19th instant, there was a violent storm, accompanied with hail and rain, about fourteen miles South of that plaoe, in the neighborhood of Benevolence, Randolph oounty. The farms were much injured by the hail and fallen timbers. From Texas. The Galveston Civilian, of the 18th, says the accounts from the interior of the effects of the reoent frosts upon the young crops are decidedly bad. Nearly all the young cotton, and much of the oorn, it says, has been destroyed, and another planting, in many cases the third, has become necessary. Qive Him Justioe. Our cotemporary of the Atlanta Intelli gencer does George D. Prentice, of the Louisville Journal, great injustice in at tributing to him sentiments copied from the Hartford Weekly Review. George D. Prentice was at the time spoken of, and long before, a citizen of Louisville, and editor of the Journal. Another Prentice, we presume, bearing the initials “G. D.” However we may differ from Prentice, of the Journal, on some minor points re specting the institution of slavery, on the whole, wo believe him to be about ns sound as any man on tho Western borders of slavery. James Conner, Esq., of Charleston, has been appointed by the President, District Attorney for Charleston District, in the place of Thomas J. Evans, Esq. No ticing the appointment, the Charleston Courier Bays: “Mr. Conner is the son of 11. W. Conner, Esq., of the Banking House well known throughout the coun try, and is known to our citizens as one of tho most talentod and promising of the younger lawyers at our bar.” Snow Storm in Natchez. The Free Trader says that on Sunday morning, the 12th instant, there occurred, what is seldom witnessed in Natchez, a regular snow storm. It began about two o’clock in the morning and lasted until nine o’clock It snys the 12th day of April will long bo remembered as the lat est date of snow in that city. The dwelling of the Rev. James C. Ken drick, in Sumter county, Ga., together with the household furniture, &c., was consumed by fire on Sunday last. The fire is said to have taken from a spark from a candle in blowing it out, which fell on a pile of old papers, from which, in a few minutes, the entire building was in flames. The loss is estimated at S2OOO. Climate of Arizania. A letter reoently received in Washing ton City, from an officer of the Army sta tioned in Arizania, New Mexico, states that Arizania possesses one of the finest oli mates in the world, and is rich in gold and silver mines. Good Sized Yearlings. Mr. James M. McDonald, of Franklin oounty, has given the editor of the Athens Banner, weights of a Mare, Mulo and Hog, owned by him. Tho mare was rais ed in Tennessee, upon tho llolston river, and has takon a premium at a State Fair —she is three years old, and weighs 1800 lbs. The mule is four years old, and weighs 840 lbs., and the hog is 20 months old, and “draws” 690 lbs. Revival at Knoxville. We learn from the Register of Thurs day last, that a revival of religion has been for ten or twelve days, and is still, in progress at the Methodist Church in Knoxville, Tennessee, conducted by Rev. E. C. Wexler, pastor in charge of the Church. It says between forty aud fifty conversions and about ns many accessions to the Church have been made ; and that some sixty or seventy seekers contimue at the altar nightly. Hail Hoad Extension. The Savannah Georgian is informed that tho engiueers will soon be in the field to locate thirty miles more of the Savan nah, Albany and Gulf Rail Road from the present terminus on tho Little St. Ilia, at tue intersection of the liuer of Wore, Wayne And Appling, on the line as nearly as by the charter of the Atlantic and Gulf Company. The work of grading on thnt part of the Com pany's line betweeu the Altamaha and the Little St. 111a, is well advanced, and the Company are about to order the iron rails for eighteen and a half miles, the dis tance between these two rivers, with a view to the completion of the road in the early part of next winter. Another Delinquent Clergyman. A dispatch from Boston to the New York Tribune, dated April 14th, says “the Rev. 0. P. Farrington, Methodist clergyman at Cohasset, is being examined before a churoh council on charges of adultery, lying, and indecent exposure of person. He is about thirty-five years old, preached for S6OO a year, and has a wife and seven children. A member of his church is the acouscr. Elder Paul Towns end presides over the examination, which causes great excitement in Cohasset aud ▼ioinity.” Another case, says the Qeogian, no doubt, of moral insanity—brought on by too close application to pious and religious studies and practices—whose first symp toms is an inability to distinguish between right.and wrong —meum et tuum —and in the case of ministers—the difference be tween their own wives and those of their friends. There seems to be an unfortu nate pre-disposition to this disease in Bos ton preachers, and if some treatment be not devised more wholesome in its char acter than that administered in the Kal lock case, she willbecomeas distinguished ftMtbe number of reverend rascals in her as she now is for her vain, hollow ■Mjirvtended piety. IMPORTANT FROM MEXICO. EXCITING KVKNTB AT THE CAPITAL. By the brig Union, which arrived at New Orleans on the 22d instant, six days from Vera Crux, the Picaynne is in re ceipt of advices from all parts of the Mex ican Republic, two weeks later—from the capital to the 4th inst. The news is of an unusually interesting and exciting character. A revolutionary movement of a reac tionary churacter, at the head of which were tbs clergy and the emissaries of Santa Anns, had been discovered at tho city of Mexico. The pronunciamento was to have been made on the evening of the Ist. Divers arrests had been made.— Among the prisoners was M. Aguilar, one of Santa Anna’s old ministers; also, Gen. Traconis. The details of the conspiracy had not found their way into the public journals. The political capital of the re actionists, however, is the new constitu tion, which has given so much offence to the hierarchy. The Trait d’Union, of the 3d instant, says: On whichever side we turn our eyes, we see no prospect of the reactionary party’s success Their cause is bad.— Their principles will not bear scrutiny. Tho party, moreover, has no competent head, aud the clergy even cannot agree upon a union of their strength. While at the city of Mexico the church bells re fuse to sound in*houor of the constitution and excommunications are fulminated, the clergy of Uajaca are singing Te Deums in their rejoicing over the promulgation of this fundamental compact. The Arch bishop has, in a second circular similar to the first, forbidden absolution to all wbo obey tbe law, and yet absolution is given day by day. The priesthood, who know their duty aud the tenor of tbeir mission, look upon tbe course of this prelate as in no sense binding. The Trait d’Union concludes: Meanwhile, everything is well concert ed. It is clear there is someone behind, some general head of the movement, who, pulling the wires, can ngitate at the samo time all parts of the republic. The l’ro gresista, of l’ueblu, speaks of rumors of a third pronunciamento in that city. We shall soon hear of them, doubtless, in tbe capitals of all the States. But wc have no fear for tbe result of the struggle. The Mexican Extraordinary, of the 4tb inst., says the British legation have pre sented thoir ultimatum to the Mexican Government, demanding satisfaction with in nine days ; otherwise tbo legation will be closed. The same paper contradicts in tho most formal manner, an absurd statement in the London Times, that our minister, Mr. Forsyth, has been wnuting in courtesy, alike to tho Mexican Government aud the diplomatic corps. Col. Butterfield, bearer of the response of our Government to the Forsyth trea ties, had not reached the city on the 4tb, having been detained by sickness at Pue bla. His dispatches, however, had been forwarded. Tbe Extraordinary says our Government had taken no definite action on the treaties at all. Wheat in Tennessee. The Memphis Engle says “We have conversed with several gentlemen from the interior, North, South, East and West, who informed us that the wheat crop in this and adjacent latitudes is generally killed by tho late cold weather. This is most unfortunate, and is nearly a calami ty, for the peoplu have devoted an unusu al quautity of laud to the crop.’’ Tho Knoxville Register is informed that the prospect for Wheat in that section is very uupromising; it has been very much injured by the lato cold weather. The oat crop, also, is already much damaged. Color Not Evidence of Race. The .Montgomery Mail, from au occur rence in that city recently, having occa sion to refer to impositions of the African raoe by virtue of color, gives, among oth ers, the following instances in which the counterfeit was so complete, as almost to defy detection: Quite a number of years.ago, there oc curred in Columbus, Georgia, a riot, in some way connected with an election.— Feeling ran high on both sides; the case oatue on for trial; and a stranger hap pened to come into the Court Room while a very good-looking fellow was acting as spokesman, in some way, lor one of the parties. That stranger recognized that spokesman as a negro ho bad sold a year or two before, and promptly advised his owner lie was subsequently carried thro’ this city, and was placed in tho “old jail,’’ oue night, for safe-keeping. Puss Ilussell, a fair and good looking colored girl, of this city, a few years ago took rooms at the Charleston Hotel, Charleston, 8. C., where her looks and genteel deportmeut secured her the best attentions. No one suspected her. She subsequently visited New York, stopping ut the Irving House. On Broadway, she “cut” Steve Plannet, (now deceased,) per fectly dead—knew none but tbe “upper crust.” Wc will add nuother case. About five years ago, a sporting man purchased from Mr. S. D. Watson, then of the Montgome ry Hall, a slnve girl nbout 13 year of age, tho daughter of a slave woman named Sa rah, belonging to that gentleman, and travelled east with her to Virginia, regis tering her uatue at tho Hotels, at which they would tarry for a few days, some times one thing aud then another, as tho case might seem to demand. At this place and Macon, they stopped and tar ried several days, and at the Hotels in each place, she was registered as Miss Kiug, of Alabama, and claimed as we were informed, to be a near relative of the then Senator of that State. She received the best attentions on the whole route ; and ou their arrival at Richmond, they put up at the American Hotel in that city, where they passed , some time as man and wife, and finally left there with out being suspected, so complete was the counterfeit. The principal topic of present interest at Havana it the project of anew line of coastwise steamers, connecting Havana with the smaller ports of the island.— Promising a concentration of the entire sugar trade at that point; it met with great favor at tho capitol; and offering, as it does, a more direct market for the plan ter, it is well received in the country.— The question as to whether it will pay, presents iUelf to the Prenxa in a very fa vorable light. IMPO High Priaemfor Cotton. The Memphis Bulletin, of Saturday, re ports a sale of a bale of cotton, raised by J. D. Cleaves, of Fayette county, for nineteen cents per pound, on its own merits. The same paper has the following in reference to the premium cotton which we have before noticed. At the Division Fair for West Tennes see, held at Sommerville last Fall, there wero thirteen bales of cotton entered and exhibited for the premiums, all of which were subsequently sold in this market at 17c. per pound. They were shipped front this city to Messrs. Brewer & Caldwell, New York city, one of the most extensive cotton houses in tbe Union, who write back to tbeir correspondent here that they have sold one bale at twenty-two cents per pound. In speaking of the whole list, of thirteen bales, they write as follows: “It excites great curiosity, and is acknowledged to be the best cotton ever received here.” This cotton is pur chased for a specified purpose, and only by a few buyers. The bale sold, we un derstand, is the one entered and exhibited at tho Division Fair by Wm. O. Butler, Esq., of Madison county, and took the first premium. Huntsville, Alabama. We have often heard the beauty of Huntsville, Ala., set forth, but the fol lowing from Gen. lldskill, speaking of its flower gardens is not only beautiful, but truly a compliment to its tasty citizens. On beholding the beautiful flower gardens of Huntsville, and all its many attrac tions, he said ; “That the breeze lingered among them reluctant to leave their delightful per fume; and that when he died and started to Heaven, (where we all, without dis tinction of conduct or religion, expect to go,) he hoped the Heavenly Father would let him go by the way of Huntsville and linger there for a while and recall the glorious memories of our visit. Brunswick. The Brunswick Herald, of the 22d, pub lishes a letter written by C. W. Styles, Esq., of that city, from which we make the following extracts: “ For a city we have hero all that the fancy cun paint or the heart desire, ex cept people, houses and money. * * * The water which is .obtained at a depth of ten feet, is, so fur as I am capable of judging—and I am very capable you know, especially when it is under proper spiritual influence. * * “The population now numbers about twelve hundred, and every day adds to the number. There are several stores here, and all seem to be doing something. We have one hotel, and two good large boarding houses; a bank, an academy well endowned, several bar-rooms, two bil liard tables, a ten pin alley, a court house and jail, and one steam mill. There is no church yet in Brunswick.” The Herald calls this graphic. We agree with the editor, it is graphic, very. Commercial Bank of Brunswick. This new institution has issued its re port of the principal Bank and Agency"at Columbus. The statement is as follows : LIABILITIES.

This exhibit is a good one, showing an amount of specie on hand more than suf ficient to redeem all liabilities out-ide of the capital stock. The amount of depos its is quite largo for anew Bank, and seems to indicate that the citizens of Brunswick have a plenty of spare cash.— Savannah yews. Dred-Scotted. Tho New York Express gives an amus ing account of how tho New York Legis lature is Dread Scotted. The Repub licans of that body resolved upon a foray on New York city. Members from the rural districts hesitated abaut going bead long into a matter which they kuew noth ing nbout, and did not work so kindly in the Republican harness as their leaders desired. “Dred Scott” was then taken up and made the touchstone of political character; every measure which halted in the least, was forced along by the leaders who pricked the sides of tho doubtful ones’ inteut with “Dred Scott.” Those latter were persuaded that a vote with the leaders was one step towards freeing the bug-a-boo “ Dred Scott,” and they gave it without a question. The Express closes its article thus: “ Sambo, South, raises corn, cotton, sugar, rice, tobacco. Sambo, North, is used to raise commissions—com mtsioners, —to give them fat jobs and fat salaries, —to rob cities of their chartered rights, prerogatives, aud privileges.— Dred Scott! Oh, thou omnipotent negro! The Massachusetts Member of Congress wbo is said to to be thy owner, ought to receive at least a million of dollars of thee. Our own city alone is to be taxed to the amount of about $13,000,000 for thee.” Charleston Standard. Tbe Hon. Thomas H. Benton. A correspondent of the Buffalo Repub lic tells a good one about tho talkative old gentleman who “ never lectures lor money.” He was going down the Hudson on a steamer not long since, and when the clerk of the boat asked him for his name, the old man replied, “ Sir, you have heard my name often; it is common, sir, here abouts.” The clerk still looking at him, 1 Mr. B. continued, “ My name is Benton.” j “Thomas 11. Beuton?” “Yes, sir”— ; The clerk bowed politely, passing the money back, and handed Mr. B. a ticket and key to a state room. Mr. B. said, “ This is a civility I had hoped to esoape here.” He concluded, however, that dis cretion was the better part of valor, be taking the money and key and marching off. Our native mnrbles, new and beautiful varieties of which aro every day discov ered, surpass most of those of the old world. The mantels and other fine work of the Capitol extension building at Wash ington are to be made at St. Louis, from marble taken from quarries discovered recently near the famous Iron Mountain. N icarogua. The Mobile Register bus been fur nished by Capt. Barnard A. Reynolds, late in command of the Mobile Rifles in the Nicaraguan army wbo came a passenger on the Tennessee, with a succint account of the late movements of Col. Lockridge’s force on the San Juan river, of which his command formed a part, lie was an eye witness and all he says therefore is un questionably true, for all who know him urc aware of his scrupulous and circum stantial accuracy even in unimportant statements: On the 24th ult., the Ist Butalion left Serapiqui for Castillo under Col. Anderson anu rested that night at San Carlos Island, Fort Slater, advanced on the 28th to the foot of Machuca Rapids, when they were joined on the 26th by 2d Bataiion, (Titus). On tho 28th marched to the head of the rapids and thence on board the steamer Rescue, advanced to within a mile of Cas tillo, and encamped for the night on the right bank of the £an Juau river. On the 29th a scouting party was thrown out, which reported Nelson’s Hill, a short dis tance below Castillo on the river, barrica ded. Ou the 30th the whole effective force, consisting of 300 men, advanced to storm the Ilill, at the foot of which they rested for several hours, when the order was given to counter march and the troops re turned to camp. This movement was tbe result of the decision of a council of War, consiting of Col. Lockridge, Col. Ander son, Gen. Wheat and Major Doubleday. These Officers ou rcconnoitering the ene my’s position, found it strongly barrica ded and planted with cannon, and defend ed by a force of Costa, Iticaus, estimated at not less than 500 men. Tho enemy’s position was therefore deemed impregna ble by the invading force. On the 31st the troops returned to Ma chuca and wero disbanded on the Ist in stant, Colonel Lockrige promising that all the volunteers who desired, should return home by the next steamer —but inquired if any were willing to accompany him and join'Walker, going byway of Aspin wall. About one fourth of the officers and men consented to accompany him— the rest be disarmed. The entire force then embarked on the steamers Rescue and Scott for Puuta Arenas. On the same night they rested at an island just below Sail Carlos. On the morning of the 2d, the steamer Scott being in advance, stop ped at a sand bar for the purpose of send ing a scouting party to ascertain whether or not the fort at the mouth of the Sera piqui had been ro occupied during the ab sence of the troops—as she touched the bar her boiler exploded, killing and wounding about fifty men—officers and privates. The Rescue reached the spot in time to save the wounded and the well, also, the ammunition and provisions—all of which were on board of the Scott.— The sick aud wounded were taken to Se rapiqui, where a partial re-organization of the command was effected. On the sth all left Serapiqui on the steamer Rescue, in bungoes and on rafts, their object being to reach Greytown in time to take the Tennessee for the United States. They found the Tennessee in, from Aspinwall, on their arrival, but as Col. Lockridc him self had not come down, being aground on a launch, up the river, Capt. Patterson, of the Tennessee, refused to allow them a passage—his ship being protected by four or five British gun-boats. In the confu sion our townsman was taken on board. Col. Lockridge was, on tho Gth instant, still in command on the San Juan river, and with the aid of a larger force will probably again attempt to dislodge the enemy and open the communication with Walker, as he has no means of transpor tation to Aspinwall, the only other way of reaching Walker. He was supplied with ample provisions for one month and an abundance of arms and munitions. The Hundred Mile Trot. The Albany Register says that both of the horses which preformed the arduous hundred mile trot, between the capitol aud Whitesboro’, have returned to Albany in excellent condition, and that Mr. Dalton lias offered another match against the Taylor horse for $5,000 a side.- This latter match is propose! for fifty miles, to take place upon a regular trotting track. These terms apparently obviate more than one half of the hardship of the race that has been so much condemned, but still we regard the task allotted as un necessarily severe. From the reduction of the distance, and the superiority of the track which will be selected for this per formance, the pace of the horses ■will un doubtedly be forced, and the likelihood is that they will really suffer more than they did in their previous exploit. Both The Taylor and the Dalton horse have proved themselves of the highest gnme and endu rance, and we should be sorry to sec such noble animals overtasked again. Passmore Williamson vs. Judge Kane. The suit for damages brought against Judge John K. Kane by Passmore Wil liamson for false imprisonment, before the Court of Common Pleas of Delaware coun ty, was some time since argued on de murrer. To the declaration claiming damages Judge Kane put in five special pleas, setting forth his office, the pro ceedings which had occurred, and justify ing his entire conduct. The plaintiff re plied dc injuria to these pleas that the defendant had committed the acts of his own will and without cause. The Judge’s counsel demurred specially to the replica tion on three pleas and joined issue in two of them. The argument on demurrer was held in December. On Saturday last Judge Haines, of Delaware county, gave notice that he decided against Judge Kane; so that the replication stands, aud the case will go to trial on the general is sue, and will be tried some timo during the present month upon its merits.— Augusta Chronicle. The States says that the New York aud New Orleans Telegraph Company will shortly adopt the system of keeping their offices open for the reception and delivery of despatches, night and day. Two setts of operatives are to be employed.
