The Thomasville Enterprise announces
the death of Judge Benning B. Moore, of
Thomas county, which occurred on Mon
day. His health had been declining for
several years, but recuperated a year or
two ago, and he received the appoint
ment of County Judge, which office he
filled with great ability and to the entire
satisfaction of bis fellow-citizens up to
the time of his death. Judge Moore was
a native of Georgia, for many years a
member of the Legislature from one of
the central counties, and also represented
Thomas county in that body as Senator,
prior to the war. He was a good lawyer,
an exemplary citizen and valuable neigh
bor. His personal popularity enabled
him to obtain any favor sought at the
hands of his fellow-citizens, and his ap
pointment by the Governor to the County
Judgeship, during the present year, was
made in obedience to their wishes ex
pressed by a numerously signed petition.

An Indiana Fiend. — Terre Haute,
Ind., Hov. 30.—At Clarendale, in Put

Thomas Martin became offended at some
thing said by his wife, and gave her three
minutes to retract. At the end of that
time he stood in the door of the house
and shot her with a pistol, the ball taking
effect in her head, killing her instantly.
A man named Stanton was in the house
and interfered to save the woman, when
Martin shot him, the ball taking effect in
the shoulder. He is expected to die.
The wife of Martin had her babe when
she was. shot, and fell back dead, clasping
it in her arms.
It is not believed that Martin made any
charge of infidelity against his wile. He
had been trying to get rid of her, and had
offered her $500 if she would consent to
be divorced from him, as he wanted to
marry another woman.
After the shooting, Martin pretended
to be crazy, and wenf around telling that
he had killed a man named Harris, whom
he had not touched at all. There is great
excitement in Cloverdale, and a strong
probability that Martin will be lynched
to-night.
A Frenchman Murders His Wife and

Caillot was charged with the murder of
his wife and his sister-in-law. ^ He had
lately obtained a recommendation to the
Bishop of Moulins for admission to the
Last Supper, where twelve indigent per
sons represented the twelve apostles.
Caillot represented Judas Iscariot, and
for enacting the part of that apostle re
ceived 10 francs; with this money he
bought a goose, and after regaling him
self on the bird he returned home and
committed the double prime for which he
has now been sentenced to de$th. The
defense he set up was that he suspected
his wife and sister-in-law wished to

THE CLINCH COUNTY MURDER.
Rufllanlsn
nd Robbery on the Georgia
Border.
[Special Correspondence of the Morning Hews.]
Hoiteettlle, Clinch Co., Ga.,}
December 3, 1874. j
As certain incorrect statements have
been published concerning the shooting
of the Brady’s in this connty, I write for
the purpose of making the necessary cor
rection.
T. Padgett, Representative elect from
Echols connty, was not with the party at
the time the shooting was done; He had
been with them, however, just before,
and they all came from his place direct to
the Brady’s, using two of bin horses and
a baggy in making the trip, and the two
Padgetts and Lee, who were in the party,
were his sons.
James T. Padgett,'William Lee, George
Hunter and Wesley Hunter, of Echols
county, Ga., and Wm. Blount and Allen
Padgett, from Florida, composed the
party who made the attack upon the
Bradys. Jackson Brady was killed, and
the Sheriff, Bobert N. Brady, was shot
and fearfully beaten, supposed to have
been done with their guns. TTin throat
was not cut, as first reported, but a pistol
ball which struck his breast just below
the neck went ont through the side of the
neck, making an ugly wound, which led
to the first report being made. At last ac
counts Mr. Brady was alive and improv
ing; and it is now thought that he will
entirely recover.' It bas been feared that
the party would return and kill him, and
in consequence a strong guard is kept at
his house all the time. The above parties
are part of a lawless bond who infest the
borders of Georgia and Florida, and as they
are still at large, with accessions to their
numbers, much excitement is reported to
exist along the line by citizens who are
in fear of being robbed or murdered by
them. When last heard from there was
nine in the party, and they had been to
two or three places in Florida demanding
money or blood from parties who they
claimed owed them. It is over thirty
miles from here to where the Brady’s
lived, and some forty or fifty miles to
where these outlaws are reported to be.
The authorities of this State and Florida
should be vigilant and use every means
in their power, and that speedily, to ar-
rest and bring to punishment all who are
in any way connected with them. There
is no excuse, or the least palliating cir
cumstance that can in troth or justice be
offered for the attack made upon the
Bradys, but it was a reckless and unlaw
ful attempt to get possession of the
properly of Carraway, which Sheriff
Brady felt legally bound to hold, and a
determination to murder both him and
his brother. They succeeded in getting
the property and in brutally murdering
one of the Bradys, and fearfully wound
ing the other, bnt as already stated, he is
slightly recovering, and it is hoped will
yet be restored folly to his family and to
the county, as a good citizen and efficient
officer. Clinch.
Alabama Negroes — Their Supersti
tions.
[Alabama Cor. of the New York Times.]
Nearly all their actions are controlled
and influenced by some strange and su
pernatural belief. If a hog is killed on
the wane of the moon they believe the
flesh will dry up and the fat melt away.
Soap must always be made when the
moon is increasing, or it will not wash
clothes welL If a rabbit runs across the
path of a negro at dusk he immediately
makes a cross in the ground with a stick
and spits in the centre of it. They will
not tell why they do this, simply saying:
“The cross removes the rabbit spell. ~
Another peculiar belief is that if a duck
dies in a woman’s hands some sickness
will surely overtake her before the next
new moon. Their belief in ther officacy
of charms is very strong. The other day
while walking in the woods near Mont
gomery. I met a young negro who had a
red bead and a large piece- of lead fast
ened to a strong cord and tied around hiB
neck. He told me that he was troubled
by frequent and long-continued bleeding
from the nose, and that the red bead—
“blood-bead” he called it—and lead had
been given him by an old woman doctor.
She had assured him that as long as he
wore the charm his nose would never
bleed again, and, said he, “Sure ’nongh,
I hasn’t had no trouble never since.”
Last week, in a Police Justice’s Court in
Montgomery, a good-looking young nfigro
girl appeared and wanted a warrant made
ont for the arrest of an old black woman
namedSue Williams. “What has Sue done
to you?” asked the Justice; whereupon,
after a good deal of stammering, the
girl told her story, as follows: She was
in love with a young colored man who
did not return her passion, and, hearing
that old Sue could prepare a powder which
never failed to make a man love the
woman who administered it to him, she
went to the old woman and told her
trouble. She told her that she could
prepare a powder at once, and that it
coilld not fail to have the desired effect.
She then went into an inner room, and
soon returned with a paper containing
what appeared to be a few grains of
white sugar. For this she charged the
girl $1. Subsequently the powder was
administered to the young man in a glass
of beer, bat as he had failed to show any
symptoms of love for the girl, she wanted
old Sue arrested as a cheat. The Jus
tice told her that he conld not have
Sue arrested, but that he would make
her refund the $1, and prevent her from
selling any more love charms. Yester-
’ —- a'-- —“— with a
he as-
_ be
lievers in what they called love charms,
and that it \ra§ a common occurrence to
administer a powder to a woman to pre
vent her from being loved by any man
but her husband. Many of the poor
creatures, when sick, entertain the'belief
that they have been tricked, as they call
it, and others are sore that their illness is
caused by some reptile having crawled
into their body. There is one old negro
on a plantation near Honnt Meigs who
stated positively that a eon jure doctor
has made a water snake enter his leg.
Washington Manhood.—The editor of
the Washington Sunday Herald writes
learnedly and pathetically of the “Decay 7
of American Manhood.” Our confrere's
ideas are doubtless based on observations
of the narrow chests, pipe-stem shanks,
shriveled calves, hatchet faces and pulpy
heads of the “manhood” that ebbs and
flows between the Department buildings
and cheap boarding-honses at Washing
ton in daytime, and at night loafs around
the hotels, looking wise and talking gov
ernment. These manhoods are, we have
no doubt, sogjgwhat decayed, but if our
friend will coine to Indiana we will show
him sundry specimeins that show no signs
of being honey -combed in the head or

The Great Controversy.
The recent prediction of the Pope,
that we were bn the eve of one of the
most tremendous religious struggles of
history, is in course of literal verification.
Protestant and Catholic, the clergy and
laity, the noble and commoner, every
periodical—from the stately quarterly re
view to the smallest village weekly—are
aflame with the exeitement which has
been produced by the Vatican decrees,
and the alarm of Protestants and the op
position of Catholics that have grown
thereont. Earl Bussell sounded the first
alarm, in s. speech delivered some months
ago, and by writings thereafter; and since
then the contending parties have been
collecting their ammunition, the grand
explosion of which was signalled by Mr.
Gladstone’s elaborate bnt not very orig
inal argument Archbishbops, bishops,
temporal lords and statesmen have en
tered the lists, the controversal cauldron
is boiling over, and the prophecy of His
Holiness is fulfilled.
The whole dispute hinges upon the
infallibility of the chief Bishop of the
Bom an Catholic Church, and the aver
ments and counter-averments in which
the controversy is embodied furnish a
curious illustration of how variously the
simplest dogmatic proposition may be
viewed. The assertion of infallibility is
confessed by the Catholic authorities to
cover everything within the sphere of
faith and morals, while the Protestants
ftlflim that, even under that definition,
the dogma strikes directly at the root of
civil allegiance—argning that, as every act
of our lives was intended by the Deity to
affect onr eternal destiny, every act has a
moral and religions significance, and falls
within the sphere of dnty and morals,
and, as snch, may be bidden or forbid
den by the depository of infallibility.
This view is concurred in by several
eminent Catholics who have already
spoken. Lord Acton has gone so far
as to assert that the present Pope
holds all the prerogatives of his pre
decessors, who dethroned kings and
exoqmmunicated nations, and has met
witli the fate of every meddling marplot
—the Catholic press and clergy denounc
ing him without stint. Lord Camoys,
another Catholic nobleman, endorses Mr.
Gladstone’s interpretation, concluding his
letter in the London Times with this un
mistakable language: “For myself, I will
say that history, common sense and my
early instruction forbid me to accept the
astounding and novel doctrine of the per
sonal infallibility of the Pope.”
Then we have Lord Hemes, who de
nounces the utterances of the two former
peers, and asserts that the “Almighty
founded the Catholic Chnrch, that the
Pope is His Vicar on earth, and, as such,
necessarily infallible.” He regards Mr.
Gladstone’s pamphlet as a firebrand.
Monsignor Capel charges his fellow-
Catholic, Lord Acton, with advancing
atrocious imputations against the Holy
See, and challenges him td the proof.
The Monsignor closes by. defining the true
Catholic position as follows: “AU power,
ciril or ecclesiastical, emanates from God.
That both, therefore, are to be honored
and obeyed. That the ecclesiastical
poweris superior to the civil, and defines
the limit of one and the other. That
when the civil power passes its province,
then the Church has a right to raise her
voice and condemn it.” It is hard to dis
tinguish between these definitions and
the charges made by Mr. Gladstone.
The Catholic clergy,- however, are unani
mous in protesting that their reUgion in
no way interferes with the duties of tem
poral and civil allegiance.
The circle of debate widens doily, new
accessions of the shrewdest inteUects of
Europe~eonstantly occurring, and the
energy and bitterness of the controversy
growingin proportion.—Brooklyn Argue.

The Rate of Interest.
The nsual rate of interest in the 'West
is 10 per cent, and it is generally be
lieved that this is the correct measure of
the value of money. If the measure of
the value of a commodify is what it will
bring,'(his is true'; but if the true meas
ure of value is what the article can be
made to yield," it is not true. Experi
enced capitalists and business men give it
ns tbeir mature opinion that there is no
kind of property as profitable as money
loaned at 10 per cent.—which is tanta
mount to saying that the average yield
of industries, enterprises and speculations
is leas than 10 per cent, on the amount
invested, or, in other words, that money
is not really worth 10 per cent There are
several considerations that strengthen this
conclusion. Money loaned at 10 per cent,
will double itself in seven and a half years;
ten thousand dollars will grow into twen
ty thousand in that time, and twenty
thousand will grow into forty thousand.
That the average investments in busi
ness ventures and industries will not do
this is too well known to need a demon
stration. While a hundred men who loan
money at 10 per cent, compounded, will,
with prudent management, doable their
fortunes in seven and a half years, one
hundred men who borrow money at that
rate wiU fail, in spite of all the prudence
and foresight they may exercise, to
doable theirs. So far from it, fifty of
them, if not more, will break. There is
nothing more clearly established by the
experience of business than the foot that
a man who conducts his enterprises on
borrowed capital—whose only resources,
or chief resources are the products of
bills drawn on bis shipments, will, in
four cases out of fire, coma to bankrupt
cy; and a farmer who mortgages his farm
for half its value to secure money
at 10 per cent.-, in hope that its net
yield will pay the interest and the prin
cipal, will, in four cases out of five, be
sold out. These plain and well-known
facts appear to prove that the annual
average product of money invested in
commerce, speculation, industry and
agriculture is not 10 per cent., and that,
while it may bring that price, it is really
not worth it. If all classes of borrowers
in the West conld be brought to appre
ciate this very important fact, it would „ - _ .. .
be worth millions to this region. There' r orcigll flllfi 1/0IT1CStic xmitSj

is a world of financial philosophy in it.
Nothing is more absurd, and, in the long
run, more disastrous than the delusion
that a man can get rich by borrowing
money to speculate on; it is the secret of
four-fifths of the oases of bankruptcy that
occur in bnsiness and of the sheriff’s rales
that take place in the country.—St. Louie

The Public Lands.
By the report of the Secretary of the
Interior it appears that over nine and a
half millions of acres of the public lands
were disposed of during the year ending
June 30, 1874, and that the government
received for this vast amount of territory,
less than two and a half millions of dol
lars. There are now about six hundred
and fifty million acres surveyed, and one
billion one hundred and fifty-five milliona
of acres not yet surveyed. It appears
that the government has public lands re
maining, surveyed . and unsurveyed,
amounting to eighteen hundred and
thirty-six millions of acres. A consider
able percentage of this, probably one-
half of it, must be mountainous, swamp,
and other unproductive land. Assuming
that every productive acre of it is disposed
of at the rate we are now squandering the
public lands, ten millions of acres yearly,
ail of it will be gone within a century. And
the government will gain no benefit, for
the cost of surveying and selling is more
than the cash receipts from the lands.
This is a question of grave importance
for the consideration of Congress. It is
not so mnch a question as to the number
of dollars the government can possibly
get from the public lands as it is the
manner in which the government dis
poses of them. These lands will be of
incalculable benefit to the actual settlers
in the coming generations, if the lands
can be preserved front the grasp of the
corrupt men and spegnlators who are fast
getting control .of them. They wiU make
the nation great and rich and powerful,
if the government can hold them at low
prices for those who come after us, and
those who come here from the old
and worn countries to seek a better
and more peaceful home. But if they
are placed in the hands of Credit Mobil-
ier speculators and combinations, the
poor families who need land to cul
tivate, and whose industry would also
rapidly develop the resources and nches
of the country, would be made to pay
smartly for every acre sold to them. This
would set back the tide of immigration,
retain the development of resources
within these lands, and greatly hinder
the prosperity of the country: It would
keep thousands of families poor and de
pendent, who would, under a better poli
cy, become well off in the possession of
property, adding in the aggregate, vast
wealth to the nation. Already the specu
lators iave got:many millions of these
ss. They are combining to get more
than should be given to them; and
schemes are planned to get possession of
the timber lands, to use Indians for
taking np sections under the homestead
act, and to perfect other plans of fraud
by which the public lands may be trans
ferred from government control to the
possession of corrupt and nnscrnpnlons
men and combinations of men.
[Hartford Times.
General Boynton, the Washington cor
respondent of the Cincinnati Gazette,
(Republican,) in speakiug of the late
trial of Harrington and the other “safe
burglars" in that city belonging to the
District of Columbia Grant Bing, rayB
of the surroundings of the Court:
“But to the unprivileged spectator of
the processes of justice in the Courts of
the District of Columbia, if he happens
to be of European ancestry, the cir
cumstances are not agreeable. The assi
duity with which the colored population
of the District pursue education and
knowledge in* the lobbies of the
Courts of criminal jurisprudence and in
the galleries of Congress is more propi
tious to their intellectual expansion and'
moral preparation for the duties of Amer
ican citizenship, thin to the agreeable
ness of the atmosphere of those locali
ties. An old Cincinnati friend of mine,
now immolating himself upon the altar
of the Bepublic, under the Hon. B. H.
Bristow, who went down to the City
Hall for the purpose of listening to Mr.
Harrington’s vindication—and he is a
person trnly loyal in eveiy respect, in
favor of emancipation, enfranchisement,
mixed- schools and civil rights—was so
overcome by the qambination of odors
and eloquence with which the sanotoary
of juatioe pervaded, that he was com
pelled to retire Jin haste from the promis
and required two doctors and twenty-
four hours for the recovery of his mental
and physioal equilibrium.”

A Scheme or Plcndeb.—New
November 29. — The Sunday
says application will be made to Congress
this session to incorporate the United
States Land and Emigration Company,
with a nominal capital of $10,000,000.
The object of the Company is defined to
be to facilitate the settlement of the
inblic lands and of all other unoccupied
ands that have been or may be hereafter
granted by Congress to aid in the con
struction of railroads, canals, or other
works of public improvement or educa
tional institutions; to establish colonies,
and to make regulations for their govern
ment under the supervision of an agent.
The Company may also enter into any
contract with land-grant railroads for the
settlement of their lands on such terms
as they may agree upon, and have power
to sne its debtors in all courts, bnt itself
is to be sued by its own creditors in the
United States Courts only, while its pro-
[ty ancf franchises are to be exempt
im all'taxation, National, State, and
local, and, in lieu of taxes, it is to pay
annually one per cent, of its net income
into the Treasury of the United States.

Bloody Wobk in Tennessee.—A man
by the name of Davis was killed by John
W. Cloud, near Franklin, Tenn esse, on
Friday last. Daring a quarrel between
them, says a dispatch to the Courier-
Journal, Cloud started with a cocked
pistol into Davis’ house, when Davis,
taking down a shot-gun, poured half a
handful! of buckshot into his heart, kill,
ing bin instantly. Two years ago doud
called Dr. Wyatt out of a patient’s house
and shot him dead with a double-barrel
gun, in like manner as he was himself
killed. Wyatt had threatened his life
while Cloud was at the cemetery burying
his dead child. Deputy Sheriff Barker,
who was accompanied to Davis’ house by
Cloud, went with Hurdley to Hurdley’s
house Saturday night. Hnrdley, under
the influence of liquor, got into a quar
rel with the nurse. Barker remonstrated.
Hnrdley said, “Fll settle this thing with
yon,” and fired, the ball entering Barker’s
head near the ear, passing through his
skull, producing a mortal wound. The
two bloody tragedies have raised mnch
excitement among the people of William
son.
The Bogus Bonds.—Some time ago, as
we learn from an exchange, some parties
representing foreign holders of fraudu
lent bonds addressed Governor Smith a
letter suggesting to him some sort of
plan of compromise. The Governor,
says the same authority, declined to take
cognizance of the plan given. Of course
this was precisely whitt everybody ex
pected Governor Smith to do, his record
on the subject of the fraudulent bonds
being too clear to be misunderstood. It
seems, however, that these gentry have
not abandoned all hope of effecting some
sort of compromise. We understand
that the committee will probably visit
Georgia daring the session of the Legis
lature, and endeavor to convince the
members that the fraudulent bonds ought
to be paid. It is said that they will not
only offer “liberal” terms, bnt that they
will also propose to 6U gar-coat the tax
pill by agreeing to do something or other
for Georgia—invest in railroads or some
thing of the kind—if the tax-payers will
agree to pay them several millions of dol
lars that the State does not owe.—Atlanta
News.
Last yeay the dullness of business did
not affect the different churches of the
land as much as might have been expect
ed. The expenditures for missionary
purposes were abont the same as in pre
vious years. It would be a source of
gratification to believe that whatever
might be the incidental losses of trade and
commerce, the gifts to God and to the
cause of religious advancement would be
the last to be curtailed. Bnt this season
not shown the standard of the years
ted. The Methodist Board of Mis
sions has found it necessary to appro
priate less money than usual. So, we
see, have the Presbyterians. Within the
last six months, in fact, the missionary
receipts of the last named church have
fallen off nearly forty thousand dollars,
and instead of the ordinary collection of
ninety thousand dollars, the income has
been but about one-half. The Episcopal
Church has gone into debt by not lessen
ing its appropriations some twenty thou
sand dollars, and we presume other
churches have also suffered.—Baltimore

Specimens of paper and pasteboard ob
tained from the products of the peat
beds about Konigsberg were recently
shown at Berlin. The pasteboard was
sufficiently hard and solid to admit of
planing and polishing. The paper made
from peat aloije wrs brittle, btjt the ad-
dition of 15 per cent of rags produced
the requisite toughness.
