M Cotton.—Our great staple is steadily advancing, and was quoted in New York on Friday last at 20£. In Augusta 19J. Terrible Storm. A furious gale, accompanied by an uu usual fall of rain, prevailed in this sec tion last Wednesday. Serious injury Las been inflicted upon the Central, and Macon & Augusta liailroads, between this place and Macon. The loss sus tained by the latter is estimated at $30,- 000, and several days will yet elapse ere trains can run in safety. It is hoped that travel will be resumed over the Central by Tuesday. We have been deprived of our Southern mails for the period of five days. Large portions of the track of both roads, with several bridges, trestles and culverts have been washed away. Every effort is being made to repair damages. The Oconee river rose with startling rapidity, and the bridge below the city was impassable for twenty four hours. We are a little puzzled to know which of the gales we have had during the past month, is to be considered the Equinoctial. A large number of oar citi2en§ assent bled at the Good Templars hall on Fri day evening to enjoy the lecture by Col. Grieve. It was logical) eloquent, and to the point, and the orator was very just ly heartily applauded. Quite a handsome some was realized for the purchase of the organ, by the ladies who sold ice cream, coffie, &c.— That ice cream though seasoned was de licious. Homicide.—A difficulty occurred on Saturday last in Washington county, in the course of which Mr. Seaton D. Grant- land received a gun-shot wound at the hands of Dr. Carr, resulting in his al most immediate death. We learn that a Jury of Inquest returned a verdict of Justifiable Homicide. The remains of the deceased were removed to this city, and were interred in the Cemetery on the Monday following, Sad Accident.—Phil Lamar, a well known freedman, was drowned in Fish ing creek on Suuday morning. The de ceased had ventured into a deep hole for the purpose of capturing a sturgeon, and it is supposed was attacked by cramp, as he was an expert swimmer. Phil bore a good reputation, and was highly esteemed for bis many good qual ities. It is with feelings of deep regret that we announce the death Mr. Oscar Y. Brown, a highly esteemed citizen of this county, wLich occurred on Friday last. His remains were interred in the family burial ground at Fortville with Masonic honors. Tiie Mails.—Those who have the contract for bringing the mails to Mil ledgeville, should make some provision to meet emergencies. For the past few days we have been maiiless from the Central, and the Macon end of the M. & A. R. R. We think the Railroad Companies should provide some meaqi for conveying the mails when mishaps occur on the road so as to prevent its regular passage. Emigration.—Notices, addressed to the freedmen, to attend a meeting upon the subject of emigration to Liberia, are posted about tho city. There are sever al, who, if patriotically inclined, “might leave their country for their country’s good.” Apology.—We are compelled to ask the indulgence of our readers this week, in consequence of the irregularity of our mails resulting from the injuries done the various routes by the recent great storm and freshet. Stabbing Affair.—Two freedenen of this county had a little altercation last week, respecting the division of their crop. lathe progress th< reof, one re sorted to the argument of the knife, and inflicted two severe wounds upon his op ponent. leaving him in a very precarious condition. The offender has left for parts unknown. Circus.—The Empire Circus will ap pear in this place on the 21st of this month. Onr exchanges speak in flatter- > n g terms of the character of their per formances. A grand Balloon Ascension will be made during the day without charge. Jerome Tuttle, one of the most expert Acrobats, is a native of Milledge- v ille. The large scaffeld erected in front of the Milledgeville Hotel, and profusely illustrated with paint-colored cuts, attracts crowds of gazers. We presume, that as usual, the entertainment will meet with liberal patronage. Over 100,000 of the Collins Steel Plows are in us®, and every one who tries them says : “Hereafter I shall always use the ‘Collins Plows, in preference to all others.” Southern Cultivator.—Let all our farming friends arrange to subscribe for the above this winter, if they have not already done so. It is the representa tive agricultural journal of the South, published now for thirty years, aud wax ing stronger every year. The subscrip tion ($2 a year) is a mere song, and we warrant it will keep you wide awake to every valuable improvement in farming operations. Specimen copy sent free, on application to Wm. & W. L. Jones, Athens, Ga. [Communicated.] The following, endorsed by some of our leading citizens, will he read with interest by many of our patrous. The Dooly County Tragedy Mr. Editor -There have been va rious accounts of the killing of Joiner by young Devereux, published in the dif ferent newspapers, none of which are correct; and most of them have had a tendency to unduly prejudice the pub lic against Mrs. Joiner it is, therefore, due her that a true statement of the oc currence as the facts appeared in evi dence before the Coroner’s Jury, should be given the public. This I propose to do, in as brief a manner as possible. It appears that Mr. and Mrs. Joiner had not for some time, been living very pleasantly together, and that tho princi pal cause of this state of affairs, was the management of a little girl, a daughter of Joiner by a former wife, and which he had concluded to carry to live with some of his relations at a distance. On the morning the killing took place, soon after day,and before either had risen from bed, Mrs. Joiner complained to her hus band of having passed a very restless night, she being sick. He told her that while she had been rolling and tossing all night with sickness, that he had been equally restless from mental anxiety on account of having to separate lrorn his child. She told him that it was unne cessary for him to do so, but that if he would get one of his grown daughters to come there aud keep house for him, that she would go and live on her daugh ter’s plantation. At this he became very highly incensed, got out of the bed in a great rage, and told her that her son was trying to effect a separation be tween them, and that he intended to have revenge. He then went to his trank and got his pistol and told her, “we are going to have blood and thun der here directly.” While this was transpiring, Devereux was in an adjoining room, with the door between the two rooms open, so that he heard the whole of the above conversa tion. He having no arms, and hearing Joiner’s threat of “blood and thunder,” passed oat at another door and went to a store some miles off, and procured a pistol. When he returned, Joiner had gone off to work the public road, and did not get home until dinner. In the mean time, Mrs, Joiner had gotten her son to promise that he would have no difficulty with Joiner if he could avoid it, yet he still insisted that he would have an ex planation of Joiner’s threats. After Joiner had eaten dinner be went out to the door and took a seat near where Dev ereux was sitting, who told him that he wished to have a conversation with him. Joiner replied, “and I want to have a talk with you too, sir.” But very few words had been spoken, when Mrs. Join er, who was sick in bed, finding that a difficulty was about to ensue, arose and went out to them. She found Joiner with a chair raised, and her son with a drawn pistol. She immediately rushed in between them and begged them to desist. They both ordered her several times to get out of the way, which, fearj ing some injury to herself, she finally did. As soon as the way was cleare' , Joiner struck, and at the same time Devereux fired, the ball entering Join er’s bowels. The blow with the chair knocked Devereux out in the yard, and the pistol out of his hand. Joiner then ran into a room where he bad hung his coat when he came in from work, and took his pibtolfrom the pocket, >n i went to the door with it iu his hand cocked ; and looking around on all sides asked, “Where is he ! Where is he ! Dev ereux, who was standing around the corner of the house, when he heard this inquiry, stepped out where he could nee Joiner, and fired the fatal shot. The deceased lived bnt a few minutes. As soon as Devereux found that the shot had proved fatal, he appealed to his mother for money to enable him to leave the country. She gave him five dollars, which was all the money she had, and be immediately left. Parties who came in soon after, found Joiner just as he bad fallen, with the cocked pistol by his Bide, Mrs. Joiner was arrested, charged with being an accessory to the killing, and being quite unwell, she waived a pre liminary trial, aud tendered bail ia the sum of S2500. This is substantially the testimony given, at the inquest, by Mrs. Joiner, herself, and corroborated by two or three negroes, who were the only witnesses of the unfortunate affair. The many erroneous accounts which have been given of this homicide, some of which were intended, no doubt, to prejudice public opinion against Mrs. Joiner, has induced the writer to give the above correct statement of the facts in the case, hoping that those newspa pers that have given publicity to reports calculated to implicate her as an acces sory to the killing, will do her the jus tice, and her friends the favor to pub lish this also. And of the public, her friends would respectfully ask, that it should suspend its opinion and not to prejudice a case which is soon to under go judicial investigation, but be as char itable as the law is, which presumes ev ery one innocent until the contrary is made to appear.
