Union.
Congress
■m&s?«KS=jrs i^KSKffissastoits
for reasons which it would be irritating now to I an
portion of toe Southern people fought for some-
thing far moro precious than toe legal privilege
of being the masters of slaves.
They fought for the more glorious privilege of
self-government. They were willing to eman
cipate slaves in their own time and own way
but were not willing to allow Congress to regu
late their domestic government and concerns for
them either os to slavery or anything else. Thus
there were donble restraints against emancipa
tion which could not be removed in time to pre
vent either dissolution of the Union or civil war.
The war was a national necessity, permitted by
Divine Providence to prevent (in the end, I
hope,) greater evils than the war itself.
And I mark this view of the case as essential
statute; and the law does not anywhere provide
for its displacement in favor of toe creator of
the hen, for the purpose of providing him with
a homestead. .
It is true that, on the delivery to him of the
deed, the title to the land is in the purchaser
and that “a mortgage in this State is only a sj-
curity for a debt and passes no title.” (Irwin’s
Code,- §1944.) Yet toe Supreme Court of this
State, m Scott Carhart & Co. vs. Warren &
Spicer, 21 Geo. Bep. 408, decided that a judg
ment of older date than a mortgage could not
first be satisfied out of land where the mortgage
was taken as security for the purchase money at
the time of its sale. The conveyance and

mat there was no other way to bring it about, —f —f ’
and, at the samo time, ssu'e all that is precious,
I have not the least doubt. And I feel that he
who resists or in any unreasonable way ob
structs too legitimate consequences of this
‘special providence, “kicks against the pricks.”
This brings up the question:
What should be regarded os the legitimate
consequences 1 My answer is peace. The old
strifes must cease and be hushed, and their
wounds healed. Next, charity, toleration, broth
erly and patriotic kindness. It is not for me to
upbraid yon or you me for the offences and in
juries of this war. Slavery was its cause, was
our weakness if not wickedness, and God has
purged out its sin and satanio influence by fire
and blood. His fire and blood, for toe war was
His if the sin was mine. Bat woe unto those,
on either side, who shall cause toe fires to burn
and toe blood to heat after too sin and causes of
woe have been burnt to ashes. We must not
keep toe fire ignited—toe ashes must be allowed
to cool, and then, as from battle-fields, the green
herbage may be mode to grow more luxuriant
than ever; so good fruit may be made to spring
even from the cinders and ashes of this horrid
war.
No man, or set of men, must dare to take any
bolts of rertjfeance in their hands. God often
used the heathen to punish his own chosen peo-
■ pie; but if they dared to do even his will in a
heathenish and unchristian "way, Jehovah never
failed to make them, too, feel his wrath. Let
toe North remember that, and that if toe war
was Providential, then we are all but mere in
struments of toe Divine Government, and should
not attempt to play potty providences in toe
place of God. If wo do we will curse ourselves
and our country—we will become petty tyrants.
Guided by a catholic spirit like this, and looking
to God all too time, in every act and plan, we
will prevent toe white man from being enslaved
by the causes which.made the black man free;
we will prevent too continuance of toe causes
which separated the Methodist Church as the
cursors of too attempted separation of the
whole country; and we will causo toe whole
country to be stronger, and safer, and freer than,
it ever was or could be before.
I have written enough, and you are welcome
to weave these views into those of my first letter
and print them together.
I have examined your pamphlets, and thank
J9U for them.

Prisoners In the Jail Attempt to Es
cape—-Serious Result.
.On Monday morning last, as Mr. Smart, toe
jailor, opened the door of the cell, containing
Robb Wilbur and Terrell Barfield, he was caught
by Wilbur and jerked into the cell. The jerk
was of sufficient force to throw Smart on toe
good and complete when the terms and con
ditions of toe sale shall be complied with by toe
payment of toe purchase money. The code un
der the section on “Property Exempt from
Sale,” paragraph2013, says: ‘The following
property of every debtor who is tho head of a
family shall be exempt from levy and sale;
* * • nor shall any valid lien bo created
thereon, etc.”
From this, and from what is contained in all
this section touching exemption, I determine
that toe debtor who seeks to have a homestead
set apart for himself and family, must first have
a full and complete ownership and title to toe
property; it must be entirely his property, un
saddled with any encumbrance, lien or condi
tion affecting his title thereto. To use the
phrase I have given above to express such titles
as toe bankrupt’s, it must not be a conditional
title.
And further, that after bo has Had set off to
him a homestead out of his property, ho cannot
of himself create any valid lien thereon. The
Code does not deny toe head of a family tho
right to create a lien on property not exempted
in accordance with toe provisions of toe home
stead act.. Ho is free to do what he will with
his own, convey or mortgage it; and I hold that
if he mortgages back land to secure the pay
ment of too purchase money, it is a good and
valid lien, such as tho law will uphold and pro
tect for toe vendor against too mortgagor or any
other person.
By toe new Constitution of tho State of Geor
gia it is specially provided that toe homestead
shall not be exempt from levy or execution for
toe purchase money of too same.
As to toe second question: Aro top costs of
toe proceedings in bankruptcy to be paid out of
.too proceeds derived from too solo of this es
tate?
The costs of the Court in the proceedings un
der which toe estate of toe bankrupt has been
administered upon and toe expenses attendant
upon that administration have priority or pre
ference in the order for a dividend under sec
tion 28 of toe bankrupt act. .
The costs still remaining unpaid in the suit
under which this property has been sold and
the proceeds aTO to be distributed should be
paid out of toe fund in Court.
Eespectrully submitted to your Honor for
your decision thereon.

and ordered toe prisoners (who had just got to
the top of tho Stans) to halt. Wilbur and Bar-
field seeing too situation jumped from toe plat
form to the ground, whereupon they were fired
upon by Kerr, who missed. Smart, running up
about toat time, seized the pistol from Kerr and

minutes after he was shot. A post mortem ex

so intense that blood from toe horses’ noses
freezes as it falls. The experience of a party of
travelers on this road a few days ago is thrilling.
They went back often more than forward; went
through snow drifts from six feet to ten feet
high: got out of water; banged up one locomo
tive: stopped once in every mile at least, ana
had no fire and no food through a long ride of
nearly fourteen hours. Within twenty miles of
Susa the train came to a final standstill. That
distance had to be traveled in sledges. Such
sledges and drivers as civilized man ever fore
saw. Besides the prospect -of being toppled
over a peak of the Alps, down some hundred
of feet into the ravine below, they often stuck
fast in the drifts. The howling winds fiercely
blew the snow against their sledges, and more
than once they had the prospect of passing the
night under the shadow of an avalanche. Ihere
don't seem to be any method of overcoming the
snow. Every other difficulty can be obviated
but the snow. _

into Emanuel county. Notwithstanding his

by General Shermans army on their march
through this State. On the occupation of
Clt Jv. by Federal army, he came
here, and by charitable appeals and representa
tions, he was sent to Fort Pulaski as surgeon of
that post. After remaining-there a short time
he concluded there was a better opening for
himself in another direction; and finally, by the
oft-repeated tale of loyalty, suffering, etc. he
was commissioned by the Bureau to teach’ the
young colored idea how to shoot. Having made
all necessary arrangements, he again located at
■Louisville, where he opened a negro school,
which was continued until toeBureau was ‘ ‘bust-
™*. •- Be then started a negro pay school,
which did not take so well with his pupils, and
he fell through. As a reward for his labors,
the election coming on, he was announced by
his negro brethren, in connection with a negro,
for the Legislature, to which position he was
elected, and was a member to the time of his
death on Thursday night last. During his career
as a school teacher, he was treated with kindness
and respect by toe citizens of Louisville. His
subsequent conduct, though, is highly to bo con
demned, being the chief and prime mover in
everything that tended to inflame the minds of
tho negroes with hatred against the whites. It
was at his instigation, by lying representations,
that several young men residing in Jefferson
county, who had been charged with burning a
negro for toe brutal outrage of a young lady of
that place, were handcuffed, carried to Atlanta
and imprisoned. Dr. Ayer was a member of
Bollock s staff, and accompanied him on hia ve-
cent trip to Washington, to endeavor to have'
the State again reduced to military rule. He
had just returned from his tour, and arrived at
Bartow on Wednesday night, in company with
his colored daughter, a child by a former slave
of his, who had been residing in Pennsylvania.
Being unable to obtain accommodations for her
at toe houso of any white person, she was quar
tered at a colored person’s house, and Dr.
Ayer, who had been drinking freely, quar
tered himself in some portion of the town un
known to us. Thursday morning he left Bartow
and wont to Louisville, twelve miles distant, and
the last seen of him he was at the house of a
colored Methodist preacher, named Sherman,
who resided on toe edge of toe town. Some
time after dark he bade the folks at Sherman’s
house good night and started for his boarding
house, which was also situated an the outskirts
I of toe town, some distance from Sherman’s, and
was kept by George Holt, a colored blacksmith.
On Friday morning he was found lying d£ad
near toe side of toe road, midway between Sher
man's and Holt’s, with a bullet hole between his
eyes. When our informant passed by in his
buggy, on his way to take the train, a jury had
been empanelled and an investigation of toe
affair was being mado. While Ayer was at Bar
tow, he remarked toat in the future be would
belong to no political party, os his daughter had
never been so nadly treated as she was in
Pennsylvania, where he had sent her to school.
Whether he had committed suicide or fell by
toe hand of an assassin is yet unknown.
Tbo Dream.
A Christian lady dreamed that, falling asleep
on earth, she awoke in heaven. Her first thought
was one of inexpressible joy that she was safo
in heaven—no longer harassed by fears of losing
it—not a doubt remaining of lier interest in the
hcaventiy inheritance. As she was exulting in
this great joy, Jesus himself approached her,
holding in Ids hands a crown of ^oiy. As bis
laced too diadem on her brow, she looked won-
leringly into his face, and beheld, mingled with
unutterable lore, that beamed on his counte
nance, a look of sadness she could not compre
hend. Can sorrow then enter heaven? and can
it reach even the loving heart of the Redeemer
himself? were toe queries that framed them
selves in her mind; bat ere she had time to shape
them into words, Jesus, comprehending her
thoughts, pointed, without speaking, to “an in
numerable company” who wore crowns like toe
one just placed on her head, except that they
were all adorned with stars—some with only one
or two, some with many, hat hers had none.
Looking np to the Savior, she would have asked
the reason of this disparity; but again He an
swered ere she had time to utter the question.
“Yon,” said toe blessed Jesus, “have believed
on me; therefore you are sure of heaven, for
none who believe on me can ever perish. But
you never won a soul to me—not one, though
J rour instrumentality has a share in this heaven-
y glory; and therefore yon have no star in your
crown to lay at my feet, in token of your grati
tude for my everlasting love. Can’you wonder
that I grieve for your loss—a loss that now can
never be repaired ?”
The intense emotion produced by these words
awoke her; and she adds, “ My first waking
thought was, to fall on my knees and thank Goa
that I was on earth and not in heaTen—that
time was yet allotted me to win souls to Christ,
toat I might yet be saved toe unutterable shame
and grief of laying a starless crown at toe feet
of the Lord who bought me.”
What a solemn lesson to every lover of Jesus,
to labor while life shall last, to bring others to
the dear loving Redeemer, who, if sorrow could
cn>«r toe heavenly glory, might well be sup-
josed to weep at the loss His dear children thus
inflict on themselves in their unfaithfulness to
toe trust he has committed to their charge.
Foolhardy Exploit.—A special dispatch
from Augusta, Me., to toe Herald; describes a
very foolish action of a young man, on toe suc
cess of which he won the paltry sum of $25,
and gained nothing else, for bravery could have
nothing to do with such a suicidal attempt:
“A young mnn by the name of Charles Maxs-
ton advertised that he would sail over the Au
gusta <3<iTn (thirty feet) between the hours of
two and three o’clock Saturday afternoon. As
the river, owing to toe recent rains and thaw,
has of late been vety high, toe proposed feat
created quite an excitement. At the appointed
time a large concourse of people had assembled
on both sides of the river to witness the daring ex
ploit, and Marston soon after started from the
Tnoir. body of ice, about twenty rods from the
a.m, in a small wherry, steering with a common
paddle. The current soon took toe boat, and
he was propelled through tho water with con
siderable speed until he arrived at toe edge of
the dam, when he shot over with fearful velocity.
As toe boat went over, Marston flung himself
nearly on his face, clinging to the sides, and m
that position both man and boat disappeared in
tho boiling surge below, but almost instantane
ously re-appeared, and rode safely out m toe
stream amid the cheers of toe crowd.
