i i J THE UNION ft RECORDER. [CHd *' Southern Recorder ” and “ Federal Union ’ consolidated.} FOR SECB.ETAHT or STATE, [Subject to a Democratic nomination,] Jf • €• BARNETT, Former Secretary of State. Wednesday Morning, December 4,1872. Death of Horace Greoley. On last Saturday dispatches from Washington and iN’cw York, brought the sad news of Mr. Greeley’s death. At any time for the last twenty years the death of Mr. Greeley would have produced a pensation throughout the country; but at the present, when Mr. Greeley had become the leader of liberal sentiments in the Republican party, his death is a great national ca lamity. Born and raised among the people, Mr. Greeley has always been the friend of the laboring class; and it can be truly said of him that he has generally plead the cause of the oppressed. At the head of one of the most influential journals in the country he has made hismark in the world, and his name is written upon every page of the his tory of his country for many years. 1'rorn his earliest youth he has been one of the most industrious men oi his age, and he retained his mental vigor until within a few days of his death. His extraordinary career of fame and usefulness will afford an en couraging example for the young men of our country to follow. It seems hard to realize that one who has so lately been the leader of millions of men should now lie silent in the grave But this is the common consummation of all earthly hopes—of all human greatness. has 5c 23ot Deceived—Gen. Grant not changed. Some of our friends have been flat tering themselves that Gen. Grant iu his forth-coming message would re commend a more liberal policy to wards the South. We fear all these fond anticipations will be disappointed. Such a character as his does not change only for the worse. He is iu tensely selfish and exceedingly avari cious and these grow and intensify as years increase. He is too indolent and loves pleasure too well to trouble himself about the prosperity of the South so long as the eastern and west ern and middle States stand by him. But Gen. Grant hates politicians and dispises lawyers. The only Courts for which he has any respect are CourtB Martial, and the policy which he be lieves in is that which the centurion, whose servant was sick, describes in the New Testament: he said to one man go and he went, and to another come and ho came, and to his ser vant do this and he does it. That is precisely Gen. Grant’s policy, and be has no use for politicians and it is very possible that he may quarrel with the politicians and lawyers of the North if they attempt to rule him, and in that case he would probably try to conciliate the South. If the politi cians of the Radical party have not lost all of their independence and man hood they will be sure to quarrel with him, for he snubs them at every turn. But we fear the love of office and of plunder is the ruling passion with Rad ical politicians of these times, and if so Grant can rule them and snub them as much as ho pleases. The Scourge of Fire.—In ancient times when men became very wicked, we read that the whole race, but one family, were swept away, and the earth was cleansed and purified by water. Now it seems as if the fire fiend was let loose, and the earth was about to be scourged by fire. Never before in this country have we heard of so many and such destructive fires aa in the last fifteen months. Many lives have been lost, and hundreds of millions of property swept away in one day. To those who believe in an overruling providence these terrible fires have a fearful meaning. They do not come by chance. Are they not the chastisements of an offended God, and sent as a warning to those who put their whole trust in riches, and lay up all of their treasures on earth, where they are constantly exposed to decay or sudden destruction ? letter from Chattanooga- Chattanooga, Tenn., Nov. 29, 1372. TheiPress Association of Tennessee •is holding its adjourned meeting at the Stanton House in this city. On last evening Tennessee’s most distinguish ed literary daughter, Mrs. L. Virginia French of McMinnville, read before the Association a beautiful and appropri ate poetical Address. I shall send you a copy go soon as ,1 can obtain one. Mrs French is well known to the lit erary world as the author of many of the finest poems of our times, and of that thrilling novel entitled “My Roses” which I have seeu for sale at the store of Hunt, Rankin and Lamar of Milledgeville. Beside Mrs. French, when she was reading her Address stood her brilliant and handsome young sister Mrs. Lide Meriwether of Memphis, Tenn. Mrs. Meriwether bas very recently made herself favorably known to the literary world by her revolutionizing little volume entitled “Soundings,” and by a startling poem lately brought out in pamphlet form under the quaint name of “Souls fob Sale.” Mrs. Meriwether has been ap pointed to deliver a poem, at the next meeting of the Press Association which will take place in May 1S73 at Leba non, Tennessee. The members of the Association, together with a highly intelligent body of citizens and guests, wero also very happily addressed last evening by Messrs. Jones and Bing ham of the Nashville press. Among the audience, we observed Hon. Mr. Crutchfield, Hon. Mr. James, and Hon. Mr. Soyder, all of this city—members elect, the first to Congress, the second to the State Senate, the third to the Lower Branch of the Tennessee Leg islature ; all gentlemen of ability and decided “dash.” Chattanooga is grow ing handsomely, and is destined t,o be a very important city. It is the focus at which five great railways uow meet. The iron manufacture is already a large interest here ; and with coal and iron-ore at hand, this great busi ness is sure to have aa immense ex pansion. From actual trial, we can commend the “Stanton House” as one of the very best hotels to be found in any country : new, elegant in all respects. This is no venal praise ;— for we pay our bills here just as ordi nary and non-corresponding mortals do. The weather is very cold here to day. Ice covers the pools of water everywhere, and the wind howls down over the mountains from the frozenest regions of the North Pole. The ther mometer is sixteen degrees below the freezing point! My ink freezes ! Frigidly yours, W. G. M. For the Union and RtoorJer. Ole Boll’s Concert- Messrs. Editors: In view of the per- Horace Greeley is Dead. New York, November 29.—The Tribune isues the following bulletin: 6pective visit of the “Amphion of the * Mr. Greeley died very quietly without North,” the following brief sketch may not be uninteresting. Ole Bull’s passion for violins, mani fested itself at a very early age. When only five years old, bis uncle (a violin ist) bought him a very small fiddle. To the surprise of the family he imme diately played well upon it, though he had never received any instruction. He played a quartette of Pleyel’s to the assembled club,|and they inquired with astonishment who had taught the child; for they knew not, that God had taught him, by a process as simple as that of the mocking bird. Ole Bull never learned to read music by the usual method. From infancy ho had been accustomed to hear music, and he knew the sound ol each writ ten note, long before he was able to pronounce it by name. At ten years of age a foreign music master urged upon his father the necessity of having pain, at teu minutes before seven this evening. He was censcious and rational. Washington, November 29.— A dispatch just received here anounces the death of Mr. Greeley at 6:50 this evening. He was censcious at the time, and passed peacefully away. BEr. Greeley's l>ast BXoments. New York, November 30.—The accounts published of Mr. Greeley’s last moments represented him to have been conscious during the day. As is usu al in cases of inflammation ofjthe brain, his physical suffering .was extremely Blight but increased, and the morbid action of the mind was evident from exterior manifestations. He was asked, “Do you kuow that you are dying?” Without tremor or emotion he answer ed, “Yes.” Again when asked if he re cognized Mr. Reid, he looked up with him taughtscieutifically. The attempt immediate recognition, and lifting hi, was accordingly made, but nothing .?*'• ■?"£?. *£!*?£ would come to him The Millodg’ovlllo Hotel. We understand the company intend to rebuild the Hotel aa soon as they can make the necessary arrangements. Some of the stockholders live in New York, and some are minors. All of these difficulties we trust will soon be overcome and the work will commence in earnest. It is equally for the in terest of the stock-holders and the public, that the Hotel should be re built, and if any of the stockholders •wish to act the dog in the manger, the stock will be sold, and a new com pany formed, but in either case the ilotel will soon be rebuilt. The soon er the better for the public and for all concerned. We received the President’s Message this morning too late for publication. It will appear in our next issue. Washington, December 2.—Both houses are organized, with Colfax and Blaine in the chairs.

The Female College at Greensboro was burned on Friday morning. A gen eral conflagration was prevented only by great exertions on the part of the citizens. The incendiary is plying his torch in Hancock county with great vigor. Ou the 20th ult. Mr. J. Mullally lost his gin-house and all his cotton; on the 22d, Mr. James Leary lost his gin- fiouse and twenty-five bags of cotton; on the 23d, Mr. Jasper Boyer’s gin- house was burned, together with ali the ccttou he had made this season. The citizens suspect the existence of a plot for the destruction of all the gin-houses in the county, and are or ganizing for the purpose of detecting the incendiaries. One of the jurors in the case of Mil- ton Malone, which was on trial in At lanta, was suddenly taken ill on Thurs day, and died on Friday. The jury was dismissed. —Hawkinsville has a new Bank, with the following officers : Chas. T. Lathrop, John II, Kendricks, J. J. Sparrow, James O. Jelks, Jr., G. La mar, John Henry, and J. D. Stetson.

The chickenzooty need not pro ceed in that direction for game. —Under the advice and leadership of H. Potash, the Radicals of Atlanta have resolved to support his brother, T. Stobo, for mayor of that city. And yet the people and press of Atlanta are always complaining that the peo ple and presses of other places make laces at them, and say naughty thiugs about them.—Sav. Advertiser. The Monro* Advertiser has this to say about the recent fire in thia city: We sincerely regret to chronicle this fire. Only a few years have passed since the firo fiend devas tated this same block. The hotel building was on9 of the best in the State, and the rooms were arranged so as to be convenient for “pairs” or “squads” of Senators, Representatives or friend.. All the Store rooms, and the Hall were finished in modern style. The blow is a severe one. The Milledgevillianshave continued to hope their city might again be recognized as tho Capita! of the State, owing to tho fact that the public property so well arranged for the purposes of the State government; but the loss of their fine hotel, sc ioDgaboast, would seem to crash out this hope.— We hope this disaster will be recovered from promptly. Let th3 people of the State see that there is yet life in the ancient city. There is no telling wbat may happen in the future. Even Swayze has his little enjoyments. We notice that ha has been divorced. The North Georgia Conference numbers five hnndred and eighty-two churches, four hundred and nineteen preachers and forty-five thousand three hnndred and seven members. Triumphant for Twenty Year*.— More than twenty years ago the Mustang Lini ment made its debut in the West. Its cures of the various external diseases of horses aDd cattte, as tonished the planters and farmers of the Missis sippi and Ohio Valleys, and a demand for it sprung np which necessitated its mannfactnre on an extensive scale. Soon the discovery was made that it was a grand specific for rheumatism, gont, neuralgia, earache, toothache, and other external ailments of mankind. Then it was tried as a heal ing, pain killing application, in cases of ontwsrd injury, such as cuts, bruises, burns, spasms, &C-. and was found equally serviceable. The fame of the new remedy for some of the most painful ills that afflict mankind and the lower animals, spread rapidly, and Mustang^Liniment soon took rank in every 8tate and Territory of the Union as a standard cure.} , by mechanical process. His genius positively refused to go into the straight jacket, and when father and teacher coaxed and scolded, the nervous child actually screamed with agony. It is this abhorrence of fetters which now imparts to his genius that freshness and overleaping life which constitutes its greatest charm. Crit ics constantly complain that he pays no attention to the rules, but the pub lic everywhere agree that they don’t care for this, so long as the glow of his music warms and electrifies their souls. Ole Bull plays the four distinct parts on the violin at once. No per son who has not tried it can conceive of the extreme difficulty of playing at once the distinct parts on each of the strings. It requires muscles as strong as iron, and elastic as India rubber Paganini had sufficient elasticity but not enough strength. Ole Bull is the only man in the world that ever did it. When the Parisians first heard him pro duce this wonderful eflect, of Jour vio lins with only one, it 6eemed so in credible that they could not at first be lieve it, but thought that three other musicians were concealed behind the scenes playing the other three parts. The romantic history of his violin is no fiction. This remarkable instru ment is over three hundred years old. It was made by Gasper da Salo in Brescia, one of the oldest violin ma kers on record, and it was considered the best ono ho ever made. Its ori ginal cost was over six thousand dol lars—new no amount of money could buy it. When Iuspruck was taken by Napoleon in 1809, it was carried to Vienna and was sold to Rjheazhek a a wealthy connoisseur of stringed in struments. He was offered immense sums for it by English, Russian and Polish noblemen, but to all such offers he invariably answered by demanding the price of half of Vienna. About, thirty years ago Ole Bull gave fifteen concerts in Vienna—Rjheazhek was enthused by his performance, and Ole Bull, of course, looked with longing eye, on the oldest and best violin in the world. But the musical antiqua rian could not bring himself to sell it, but promised that if ever be did part with it the Minstrel of Norway should have it. He died two years after, and his son sent it to Ole Bull, then at Leipsic. The wood of this violin was so old, and vibrated so thoroughly, that Ole Bull for a long time, was unable to ob tain a sounding post adapted to it. This post is a small piece of wood, not as large as a man’s little finger. When Ole Bull first performed in Philadel phia, bis delicately sensitive ear, at once detected that the double bass viol in the orchestra, was a very old instrument. Some time after, the horse and rider that represented “ Gen. Putnam’s leap down the precipice” plunged into the orchestra, and crush ed the old bass viol to splinters. As soon as Ole Bull heard of the accident he hastened to buy the fragments, with a small piece of which he was enabled to remedy the slight (but to his sensi tive ear, great) defect of his own fa mous instrument. Its upper covering is of an exceedingly rare species of Swiss pine, celebrated in the manufac ture of violins. It grows on the Ital ian side of the Alps, for sunshine and song, seem inseparably connected, and the balmy atmosphere which makes Italy so rich in music, and imparts to her language such liquid melody, seems breathed into her very trees. The diamonds in his bew—forty-five in number—were presented to Ole Bull by the Queen of his own native land. G. said distinctly “yes.” His last words were, “it is done." His face hardly changed, only settling a little into a lock of perfect peace. Great Fire in Ifew York. About 2:30 a. m., a fire broke out in a building in the rear of 716 Broad way and spread rapidly to the adjoin ing buildings in the rear of Nos. 714, 716, 718, 720 and 722. Two of these, known as Lina Edwin’s Theatre, now occupied by KellyLeon’s Minstrels, and the Arion Music Hall, were com pletely destroyed, and the private resi dence of Dr. S. S. Fitch was badly damaged, in the centre of the block, and the rear buildings of a number of houses were burned. Mathew’s auc tion house and G. L. Kelly & Co.’s dealers in wood hangings, were badlv damaged by water. Several per sons Were rescued by the firemen, at great peril. The loss is thought to be about 81,000,000.

The proprietor of this celebrated medicine jottly claims for it a superiority over all remedies ever offer ed to the public for tbe safe, certain, speedy and per manent cure of Ague and Fever, or Chills and Fever, whether of short or long standing. He refers to the entire Western and Southern country to bear him timony to the truth of the assertion, that in oo case whatever will it fail to cure if the directions are strictly followed and carried out. In a ^Teat many easeR a single dose lias been sufficient for a cure, aad whole families have been cured by a single bottle, with a perfect restoration of the general health. It is however, prudent, and in every case more certain to cure, if its use is continued iu smaller doses for a week or two after the disease has been checked, more es pecially in difficult and long-standing cases. Usually this medicine will rot require any aid to keep the bow els in good order. Should the patient, however, re quire a cathartic medicine, after having taken three or tour doses of the tonic, a single dose of BulCs Vent table Family Pill* will be sufficient. BULL’S saasaMsxsia. Read the following extract of a letter from Mr*. Rivers, wit* #f Reverend Dr. Rivers, one of tho most learned, eloquent and popular Ministers of the Method ist Episcopal Church, and wiio is at present stationed at Broadway Church, Louisville, Ky. Louisville, Kr., Oct. 8, 1869. Dr. John Bull—Dear Sir : Many thanks to you for tha medicine you have so kindly given me. 1 have been a great sufferer for years, and had the advice of various physicians. Some pronounced my spin", some :ny lungs, and some my heart to be the seat of ir,y din- ease. I have been burnt, ^Bstered and cupped until I had become disheartened! Several very eminent F hysicians who examined my spine informed me that was threatened with paralysis or appoplexy any day and that nothing but a eeton would relieve me. I had a perfect horror of that, and was hesitating about having one inserted, when you kindly sent me your Sarsaparilla which I immediately begun to take three tunes a day. I had suffered terribly with a most acute pain in the right side of my head, especially when I would read or write for any length Of time, and on rising to my feet I would be pertectly blind tor several minutes, and would have to hold to something to prevent falling. I am most happy to inform you that the pain in my head is entirely relieved ; I suffer bnt seldom with my spine and then not so acutely. My appetite is good; indeed for the first time in my Hie 1 enjoy luy dinner more than any meal daring the day. Yon kindly sent me lour bottles again last night, and I began again this morning, and 1 hope to be en tirely relieved- Please accept my heartfelt thanks and beet wishes.

Another Testimony. Bkntor Barracks, Mo-, ( April 30, 1366. i Dr. John Bull—Dear Sir: Knowing tiie efficacy of yonr Sarsaparilla, and the healing and beneficial qualities it possesses, I send you the following state ment of my case: I was wounded about two years ago. was taken prisoner and confined for sixteen months. Being moved so often, my wounds have not healed yet. I have not set up a moment since I wa- wounded. I am shot through the hips. My general health is im paired, and I need something to assist nature; I uavs more faith in your Sarsaparilla than anything else. I wish that which is genuine. Piease express me half a dozen bottles, and oblige. Capt. C. P. JOHNSON, St. Louis, Mo, P. S.—The following was written April 30th, 1866, by Mrs. Jennie Johnson, mother of Capt. Johnson: Dr John Bull—Dear Sir: My husband, Dr. C. 8- Johnson, was a skillful surgeon and physician in Cen tral New York, where he died, leaving the above C. P. Johnson to my care. At thirteen years of age he had a chronic diarrhea and scrofula, lor which I gave your Sarsaparilla. It cured lam. I have for ten years recommended it to many iu New York. Ohio aud Iowa, for scrofula, fever sores, and general debili ty. Perfect success has attended it. The cures ef fected in some cases of scrofula and fever sores were almost miraculous. I am very anxious for my son to again have recourse to yonr Sarsaparilla. He ia fearful of getting a spnrions article, hence his writing to yon for it. Hia wounds were terrible, but I believe he will recover. Respectfully. JENNIE JOHNSON; BULL’S WORM DESTROYER. EXTRACT FROM A LETTER FROM GEORGIA. Villanow, Walkir Co., Oa., ) Jane 28.
