Atlanta Herald: The very small distance
from the sublime (?) to the ridiculous so

received a practical illustration in this

M. D., on the occasion of the two visits
w hich he, in company with certain other
gentlemen, made to Florida, levied on for

hpr claimed the pistols, and this claim is
n °w pending for trial before Justice W.
P Hammond, and will be determined to
day. These facts were related by one of the
attorneys in the case to a knot of lawyers
x n the Solicitor General’s office yesterday,
when a very distinguished lawyer remark
ed that he thought in t&is case duelling
pistols out to be exempt from levy and
jale, they being the “implements of Col.
A*ay s trade.”
^b. T. C. Warthen. of Washington
county, who raised five bales of cotton on

he last Sandersville Herald. This is how
ne does it: According to promise, and
or the benefit of the farming public, I
erewitli append a brief and correct ac-
count of the preparing, manuring and
Ration 0 f m y acre of cotton, grown
nns season. The soil is sandy, with clay
aub-8oil ; has been in cultivation for sixty
°f e ^ ty jy ears > 1 suppose. About half
tll e acre was an old dung-dill, the other
half very poor before manuring. The
guano used was Kettle well’s A. A., or
Phosphate-Pernvian, 1,400 pounds; raw
pme straw from the woods, 60 ox cart
green cotton seed, 60 bushels;
The pine straw, cotton seed, and stable
manure I hauled out in January, and
strewed broadcast over the land, then
turned under with a two horse plow,
breaking eight inches deep. Then with a
sixteen inch scooter run in the two horse
furrow, breaking from five to seven
inches: in the whole thirteen to fifteen
inches deep. I then followed in the scoo
ter furrow with the guano, or subsoil fur
row, so on, till completed. In February,
I repeated the breaking in same
manner, leaving off manuring. In
March the same again, breaking each time
cross-wise, or in opposite direction. In
April, I harrowed the land twice, to level
the soil and destroy the young vegetation.
Then I checked off my rows three feet
each way, with a small bull-tongue plow,
and on the 13th day of May I planted my
cotton seed in the hill, six or eight seed,
dropped by hand and covered with the
foot, the seed when covered being on a
level. The seed were the “Cluster Cotton”
variety. I purchased them from David
Dickson, Esq., Oxford, Ga., to whom I
must confess I am indebted for
my success, to a certain extent. The
seed, I am confident, were half
the battle. The cotton was thinned
to one stalk to the hill in June, with ex
ception of the outside rows, in which I
left two stalks. Then I plowed with
twenty-four inch sweep—“Dickson’s”—
very shallow, one furrow to the row, and
about eight days afterward I repeated the
same, running one furrow to the row, just
scraping the earth enough to destroy the
young weeds and grass. Did not use a
hoe in it, in order to avoid skinning the
cotton; in fact, had no use for any, as the
cotton grew so fast, the shade thereof
prevented all vegetation from growing
underneath.

Louisville, November 15. — Bishop
Cummins, of Kentucky, in his letter to
Bishop Smith, withdrawing from the
Protestant Episcopal Church, gives as his
reasons that he has to exercise his office
in churches where the services are sub
versive of the truth as it is in Jesus, and
as it was maintained and defended by the
Reformers of the 16th century. Hopeless
that error prevailing so extensively in the
English and American Episcopal Church
can or will be eradicated by the authorities
of the church, either legislative or execu
tive. he proposes to return to the prayer-
book sanctioned by Wm. White. He
cannot hold his present position after
having participated at the communion
table with certain delegates to the Evan
gelical Alliance, without sadly disturbing
the peace and harmony of this church,
and without impairing his influence for
good over a large portion of the same. He
cannot surrender his right to meet his
fellow Christians around the table of the
Lord. He must take hia place where he
can do so.

George’s Station, Colleton County,
S. C., November 7.—Hard it is, even for
the most vivid imagination, to compre
hend the most deplorable abyss into which
this State has been hurled—a State whose
soil, besides producing cotton, corn, peas,
rye, oats, barley, tobacco, hay, grasses,
and the various delicious fruits of the
tropical climate, is stored with gold, mar
ble, sienite, granite, gneiss, ochres, both
red and yellow, porcelain clay, limestone,
talco, and various other minerals. Cor
ruption and bribery have thrown off their
sable garments and “run riot” through
her borders. Hundreds of acres, which
were once white with cotton, now lie a
barren waste. Laborers are plentiful, but
they prefer idleness to work; and the poor
planter, who endeavors to retrieve his
losses, is only sunk deeper into the mire.
From a careful estimate I find that over
ninety-one per cent, of those who have
engaged in cultivation since the war have
lost money, and over seventy per cent, of
the arable lands of the lower portion of
this State have chang<5ddiAWhV
As each “pay day for taxes” rolls around
truly melancholy is the visage of the real
estate owners.
Recently I was at a sheriff’s sale. The
aforesaid official was a tall, thin, gauky
foreigner. Thousands of acres of cotton,
rice and phosphate lands were sold at
mere nominal prices. Seeing near me
a man with brilliant eyes, but in very
shabby clothes, I said that it was dis
tressing to see the old land-marks torn
away. “Oh,” replied he, “I was once the
owner of that three thousand acre tract
which has just been sold, but the taxes
were so enormous that I could not pay
them. The same tract has been sold four
times beneath the sheriff’s hammer since
’6.1. My forefathers received it from the
English Crown, but it will not be sold
again. ” Why, ” asked I, ‘ ‘is the purchaser
w ealthy ?” With a look of contempt he
said, “Do you see that squint-eyed, red-
bearded chap, over whose countenance a
just God has cast a radiance which once
ornamented the walls of Sing-Sing ? He
came here after the w r ar with barely rags
on his back, but he called himself a Re
Dublican, and is now worth his thousands.
Furthermore, since he is a Radical, he
can return the land at one-sixth its value,
and nothing will be done to him, while
when I returned it at its true valuation it
was doubled. This completely swamped
me. Did you see what Congressman
Rainey, our negro representative, said in
Connecticut about so arranging the taxes
as to give the lands to the negroes ? The
whole plot has been well laid, and our
Congressman knew what he was speaking
about. ”
The average decrease of the value of
property throughout the South is five
mndred per cent, since 1860. Before the
war the taxable property of South Caroli
na was valued at about $488,000,000, and
1870 it had fallen to $184,000,000, and
the decrease has been steadily progressing
up to the present time; but, mirabile
dictu, the taxation before the war was
only a little over $400,000 annually, but
the annual taxation in 1870 was about
$2,100,000, yet the State debt has in
creased from $6,000,000 to something be
tween $16,000,000 and $20,000,000.
Suicide and Life Insurance.
Life insurance policies usually contain
a clause providing that if the insured shall
die by his own hand, the policy shall be
come void. An important case upon this
subject has just been concluded in the
United States Circuit Court of Iowa.
Charles L. Hogan, whose life was insured
in the Mutual Life Insurance Company of
New York, killed himself in 1871. and the
company declined to pay, on the ground
that Hogan had died by his ow n hand,
within the meaning of the exception
stated in the policy. Hogan’s adminis
trator consequently brought suit, admit
ting the suicide, but declaring that the
act had been committed while Hogan was
“temporarily insane.” Upon the insanity
issue the trial took place before a jury,
there being first excluded from the
y box, however, all jurors who
had “the preconceived opinion that
the man was conclusively insane
merely because he committed suicide.
Upon the side of the administrator evi
dence was produced to show that Hogan
had, in the latter part of his life,, changed
from an affectionate husband and father
to one who was irritable and morose; that
he complained of pains in the head; treat
ed his wife and children harshly, but after
wards denied all remembrance of such con
duct; and that, in the opinion of several
physicians, who testified as experts, he
was really insane. Upon the side of the
insurance company this change in his con
duct was admitted, but tl*6y declared
it w r as produced by a different cause than
insanity. They showed that his family
relations were unpleasant: that he got
into severe pecuniary embarrassment;
was a defaulter to the express com
pany by which he was employed,
and had embezzled a $500 money pack
age, which the company was engaged
just before his death in tracing out. Ex
posure being imminent, he ineffectually
tried to borrow the money necessary to
make good his deficit, and finally the su
perintendent of the express company un
expectedly appeared in Hogan’s office to
investigate his accounts, and on the same
day Hogan shot himself. The jury, after
an hour’s deliberation, gave a verdict for
the insurance company, and declared in a
special finding that Hogan voluntarily
took his own life. Amotion subsequently
made for a new trial was overruled. This
case has an important bearing upon life
insurance in connection with suicide.
Further Particulars.
The New York World gives the follow
ing account of the boiler explosion in
that city, which was published in the Sun
of yesterday:
Four laborers, a charming girl just bud
ding into womanhood, a ten-year old
school boy, and an unknown Italian harp
girl, were hurried into eternity at One
Hundred and Twenty-eighth street and
Fourth avenue, about a quarter past four
o’clock p. m. yesterday, amid the groans
and shrieks of a dozen persons maimed,
wounded and scalded, by the explosion of
an ill-tended boiler attached to a derrick
used in sinking the tracks of the various
lines of railroad that use Fourth avenue.
The engineeering operations at this
point are very extensive, and in sinking
the track many derricks are used to hoist
the earth and debris out of the cutting
and to lower stone and other building
materials used in building the tunnel.
Yesterday afternoon full steam was up
and it was found necessary to move it and
the machinery from a little above the
corner of One Hundred and Twenty-
eighth street and Fourth avenue towards
One Hundred and Twenty-ninth street.
For this purpose several laborers, pro
vided with crowbars, were engaged in
building a plank platform and in pushing
the fatal machine along it. John Baraum,
who was employed as engineer to the
boiler that exploded, supervised the opera
tion of moving it and the machinery, but
it is supposed that at the time of the ac
cident he was not closely attending to his
duties, as he escaped uninjured.
The boiler had been moved opposite J.
Ormston’s lager been saloon, No. 2370
Fourth Avenue. West of the boiler and
the excavation a number of laborers were
engaged in laying gas pipes for the Har
lem Gas Company. The sidewalks were
crowded with pedestrians and persons
looking at the operation of moving the
boiler. At One Hundred and Twenty-
eighth street and Fourth avenue was a
temporary bridge over the railroad cut
ting, across which people were constantly
passing. An awful report, screams of
horror and pain, an ominous cloud of dust,
steam, and smoke, and a rush of excited
laborers and spectators followed in quick
succession; and amid a scene of the wild
est confusion the police and ambulances
were summoned, and seven corpses, so
horribly disfigured that they were care
fully screened from the gaze of the public,
were dragged from the debris, while a
number of volunteers conducted the
wounded to the station house. Every
house in the neighborhood had windows,
doors, and roof wrecked; trees and fences
were torn to pieces, and a number of
stores had goods badly damaged.
The Times says:
“The scene in the station house on the
reception of the killed and wounded was
of a very affecting and exciting character.
As each body was brought in persons in
the immense crowd, which fairly blocked
up the streets, would fancy that they
recognized some dear friend or relative,
and an indescribable expression of grief
and pain, general among all, would follow.
The bodies were taken back to the prison,
in the rear of the station house, and
placed on the flagged floor of the corridor.
Each one had the head battered almost
beyond recognition, and in many cases
half the skull carried away. Their limbs
and bodies too were mangled and cut to
pieces.”
The young lady killed was identified as
Miss Barsford, the daughter of a cigar
manufacturer, and the body of the school
boy Britt was taken home to his parents.
The harp girl’s name was Irene Bellfre.
The aff/iir is being investigated, and adl
the new York papers unite in expressing
the belief that there was criminal careless
ness on the part of some one connected
with the railroad improvement work.
Sandy Hook Boiler Tests.—The
boiler experiments at Sandy Hoot,
New Jersey, have been commenced by
the Congressional Commission, consisting
of General D. D. Smith, of Washington,
President; Charles W. Copeland, Netv
York ; J. R. Robinson, Boston; Benjamin
Crawford, Pittsburg; R. V. Holmes,
Ohio ; John Mechaw, Baltimore ; Captain
John S. DeViney, Pittsburg, and Inspec
tor Addison Low. A high-pressure tubu
lar boiler, having been subjected to a
hydrostatic pressure of one hundred and
eight3 r -two pounds per square inch, was
tested to prove the effects of over heating.
The steam was heated to seven hundred
and fifty degrees, and a rupture took
place in the boiler, but although the su
perheating was continued the rupture did
not extend any further. A low-pressure
boiler, six years old, was then subjected
to a gradually increasing pressure until
seventy pounds was reached, when a rup
ture occurred, eighteen inches in length,
but was not extended by a further increase
in the pressure. The last named rupture
took place in a soft patch.
Short Cuts.
The New York correspondent of the
Minneapolis Tribune aays that the Lo-

of the proprietors acknowledged to the
correspondent that the same amount ex
pended in legitimate newspaper advertis
ing would have paid far better.

The Home of Mrs. Lee—The Alexandria
(Va.) Ornette, alluding to the recent
death of Mrs. General Lee, thus touching
ly refers to the cruel injustice of which
we regret to say our government has been
guilty of practicing towards the venerable
woman who has now passed away :
*‘For several years she had fondly
cherished the hope of ending her days at
Arlington, the parental mansion—her own
home and the home of her children.
There she was born, there she had been
married, and there her children were
born. Naturally all her affections clus
tered around this, to her, hallowed spot,
and as years rolled on, she became more
and more anxious to return to the old
homestead, where lie buried the remains
of a devoted father and mother, and
where she had hoped to have peacefully
surrendered her spirit to the God who
gave it, surrounded by all the recollec
tions of happier days. But in this she was
doomed to disappointment, a disappoint
ment that, added to her recent heavy
bereavements, finally broke down a scat
tered constitution and death ensued. She
felt keenly the wrong imposed upon her
by the government, that without the
shadow of right or justice, but merely by
the strong arm of power, withheld from
her, her own and her childrens, in viola
tion of the very laws under which the
property was at first seized; and few there
are in the land, we should think, who will
not regret that this injustice was perpe
trated. and who will not now be willing
that restitution shall be made to the des
cendants of her whose soul has passed to
a happier home.”
A Scorpion in a Lady’s Hair. The Ne
vada Transcript says: A lady in this city,
a few evenings since, was startled in a
most shocking manner on discovering a
scorpion on her headdress It appears
that during the afternoon she had been
out to the graveyard, where the bug prob
ably cot on her dress, thence to her head
dress. During the evening, while she was
arranging her hair, she felt something
singular about it and commenced to as
certain the cause, and no sooner had she
placed her hand on the bug, when she re
ceived a severe and painful stmg on one
of her fingers. Her husband, who hap
pened to be near by, rushed to her, and
seeing the situation, folded a towel to
gether and took the bug fromher hair
Ld while doing so received a sting
through the thickness of cloth to his hand.
Great Sales of Dry Goods in NeW
York.—The special sale of six million
dollars’ worth of dry goods by H. B Claf-
lin & Co., of New York, opened Tuesday,
and it is estimated that it was attended
by ten thousand people. The average
reduction of prices was twenty per cent.,
and much eagerness was manifested to
make purchases. The salesmen were so
busily occupied that many customers were
disappointed. Thej sale, it is said, was
the largest of the kind that was ever
made in one day in this country, and cre
ated intense interest in business circles.
The value of the goods as sold, it was es
timated late in the afternoon, w’ould fully
reach the sum of five hundred thousand
doUars.
Messrs. Peake, Opdyke & Co. also con
ducted a very extensive special sale 4t
their establishment at greatly reducei
rates, and another house opened, it i
said, five hundred cases of goods to ble
sold at very low prices, having notified its
customers on Monday that it would do so.
The Scalped Woman.—The New Haven
Journal reports that Ann Farley, the un
fortunate young woman who was scalped
b3 r machinery in the shirt factory in that
city, is at the hospital, whither she was
removed a number of days since, and is
under the care of the attendant physician
of the institution. The wound is still
serious and aggravating, but the condi
tion of the patient is favorable to her
ultimate recovery, and with a new head
of hair. More cuticle is needed from time
to time as the progress of the healing in
vites such attention.

The Attempted Murder at
New Jersey.
Isaac Emmons, living near Mendham,
New Jersey, a small farmer, had in his
employ a half wit ted laborer, named
Louis Riker. The latter was a notori
ously bad character, who lived by pillag
ing from the farmers, and slept in barns
and old buildings. He never wore any
thing on his head or feet, even in the
coldest weather, and his clothes were
stolen from scarecrows or made out of old
rags. Emmons had given Riker employ
ment for a few days, and, wishing to
keep him, refused to pay him his wages
until certain work in the com fields was
done.
On Sunday morning Riker picked a
quarrel with his employer and suddenly
made a furious attack upon him with the
blade of a scythe. stabbing him first in
the left breast. The point of the scythe
being dull it did not inflict a serious
wound, and before he could strike him
again Emmons had seized the sharp blade
with his hands and a terrible struggle en
sued for the possession of the weapon.
Emmons’ hands were cut to the bone in
several places and he became weak from
loss of blood, but was afraid to let go lest
he should be killed. After the fight had
lasted some twenty minutes, Emmons’
wife came to his assistance, and, seizing
Riker by his hair, attempted to make him
let go the weapon. She did not succeed,
and it was only on the arrival of two
neighbors, who heard the cry of murder
and who promptly knocked the would-be
murderer down, that Riker was secured.
He was lodged in Morristown jail, and
seems only to regret that he was not able
to kill both Emmons and his wife, which,
he says, he intended to have done. Em
mons’ wounds are considered very dan
gerous, the palms of his hands and inside
of his lingers being literally scraped clean
to the bone of all the flesh and cords. It
is feared that lockjaw will set in. Em
mons is sixty years old and Riker but
twenty-three.—N. T. Post.

W E offer for sale* $10,000 Macon and Bruns
wick It. R. Bonds, November Coupon;
$10,000 Macon and Brunswick R. R. Bonds,
January Coupon.
These Bonds are secured by endorsement of
the State of Georgia, and we will sell them at the
low price of SEVENTY CENTS on the dollar.
They offer a rare chance to capitalists, who can
now have an opportunity of purchasing a secu
rity as good, in our opinion, as a State Bond, and
at thirty per cent. less.
The faith and credit of the State of Georgia
have been pledged for the payment of the prin
cipal and interest of these Bonds, and that fact
should be sufficient to recommend them, in addi
tion to their low price, to those seeking safe in
vestments at a good interest.
The Legislature, last year, in order to give a
reassurance to the holders of these Bonds of the
determination of the State to keep good her name
as endorser, passed unanimously the following
resolution, which was approved by His Excel
lency Governor James M. Smith:
“A Resolution in reference to the State’s Guar
anty on the Bonds of the Macon and Brunswick
Railroad Company.
“Resolved by the Senate and House of Repre
sentatives iD General Assembly met, and it is
hereby resolved by the authority of the same.
That the State’s guaranty placed on the Bonds of
the Macon and Brunswick Railroad Company is
binding on the State.

Gold Fields Discovered.—San Fran
cisco, Nor. 12.—Dispatches from Victo
ria say the steamer California arrived to
night from Sitka, and confirms the news
of the recent discovery of rich gold fields
in Cassian county. She brought down
twelve miners and $15,000 in dust. The
excitement is intense. One party took
out $197 in eight hours’ rocking. The
parties who came down on the California
intend returning early in the spring. The
miners wintering on Sticken have bought
up all the provisions, so that a large sup
ply will be required in the spring.
The India Cotton Crop.—According
to the Bombay Gazette, of October 6th,
the Assistant Cotton Commissioner’s re
port from Berar, for the previous week,
speaks very favorably for the prospects
of the cotton crop. The weather had
been exactly what could have been wished,
and if it does not rain when the cotton
is being picked there will be every reason
for congratulation. The total rainfall for
the season in the different districts of the
Berars has ranged from seventeen to thir
ty-three inches.
Chinese Justice.—The thirty or forty
Chinamen who work on Mr. Cragin’s plan
tation, in Terrebonne parish, Louisiana, a
short time since tried one of their num
ber, who had stolen several hundred dol
lars from another of the colony. They
found him guilty, suspended him by the
hands to the joists of the house, and whip
ped him, after which they cut off both his
hands and feet and buried him alive. The
colored people on the place were afraid to
interfere. The parish authorities have
the matter in hand.
Arlington.—Among the many brutali
ties of language attributed to the late
Secretary Stanton, and made matters of
praise among his admirers, none ever
seemed to us more offensive than his
boast that he had buried the Federal dead
at Arlington, in order that its owner—a
woman, too—should never be able to
claim her own. He utilized, as the phrase
is, the sentiment of reverence for the
resting-place of the dead by making it
the means of cheating the living. Mr.
Stanton was a lawyer, and had the credit
of being a good one. He knew what the
Constitution provided. He had sworn to
obey it often enough. He knew—no one
better—that there was no such thing as
“corruption of blood,” and that no for
feiture, except during life, and that the
life of the person attainted, had any effect.
He knew, and those (the number is rap
idly diminishing) who admire him, know
now, that the title of the United States to
the Arlington estate is utterly worthless.
The property never was Gen. Lee’s. If
there was an old-fashioned common-law
interest in it, it was divested by his death.
His wife was never “attainted.” The
thorough sympathy she no doubt had with
her heroic husband may be a great crime
in “loyal” estimation; but it was never
legally ascertained. Now she is dead, too
—and her husband long since, and Stan
ton, too, and the lawn of Arlington is
studded with graves—and to which burial
place of the three is the sentiment of the
American people, North and South, now
attracted? To one who knows, or cares,
where Stanton is buried, there are thou
ganria who would gladly go and shed a
tear on the secluded tomb where Robert
E. Lee sleeps, and where Mary Custis Lee.

children—has just been laid, tenderly and
