Editor* Telegraph ; Allow mo a Rmnll ploco
in your paper to mnko n few remarks upon
afTaira in this connty. Wo liavo suffered
soverely from drought. Com and cotton aro
ladly damagod. Hast has made its appearance
and somo largo cotton iiclds aro almost n failoro.
Tho crops have been well cultivated. Tho
FreodmClJjh aro worked and behaved well, and
w« are getting along well with them. As few
depredations aro committed by them as when
they wore slaves. Wherever I go I seo that
they aro fixing up about their lionsos, and seem
to understand that thoy liavo got to maintain a
good character to got favors from whito people.
The Frecdmen gavo n barbocno at Hog Crawl
Creek, \nth the assistanco of tho whites on tho
! ■! of July last, nud invited tho farmors around to
JF, .-.rtako with them. Sovornl families were pres-
fnt and they had a fino dinner. I made a speoch
on tho occasion and complimented them for their
faithfulness this yenr, and industry and good be-
havior. I advised them to put down loafers and
i*iu rs. and then there would bo no stealing as
everybody would hnvo plenty. That by eleva
ting their own character, they would get credit
and assistanco from tho white people, and they
would over find tho Southern whites their best
and most nscfol friends. That if thoy would
lend their aHsistaneo to keep bad men out of
office and pnt good men in, wo would havo good
laws, and a prosperous country.
Tho fanners represented at tho dinner, wero
James Barklay, WiUiam Chapman, John and
Bryant Thomas, James Lcstor, Dr. Dykes, N.
A. Homady. Sovornl freodmen mado speeches
after dinner, upon social and religions topics.
Ho the day passed plonsantly off. N. A. II.

Bloody Work In Camden.
Camden Countt, Ga., July 31, 18C9.
EtiUor Sarannah Republican :
Hu: I write to givo you tho particulars of n
very nnfortnnate tragedy which occurred in this
county, on Wednesday last, July 28tli. Two
frecdmen, Julius Jacobs and Edward Tison,'in
tho employ of the"Norwich Lumber Company,
went to tho log landing of Bnrwell A. Brown, a
white man, on Whito Oak ltivor, in this connty,
for tho purpose of rafting somo mill logs which
the Raid Brown had cut. While engaged in
getting tho logs ready, Bnrwell A. Brown nnd
his two sons, Simon nnd Bnrwell, appeared nt
tho landing, Simon nrmod with a double-barrel
ed gun. An altorcntion at onco took placo bo-
tween Jacobs nnd Bnrwell A. Brown m regard
to a previous difficulty in which young Bnrwell
Brown and Jacobs had bean concorncd. It is
Haig that n slrngglo took placo between
JacoImi nnd Simon Brown, which resulted
in Jacobs getting n knifo nnd tho gun
from Simon, and that ho threw away tho
knife nnd hnndcd tho gun to Edward Tison,
who was standing or sitting near, and who, np
to that timo, hen token no part whatovor in tho
affair, tolling Tison to keep tho gun nt nil haz
ards, as if ho gnvo it np to Brown ho would bo
shot. Unfortunately Tison gavo up tho gun to
Simon Brown, upon n promise tlint bo would
not shoot. As soon as tho gun wns given up,
Jnooba ran off, getting behind n building which
stood nenr at lmnd. Bnrwell A. Brown caught
tho gun from his son Simon's hands and tried to
A shoot Jaoolts os ho ran, but failing to do so,
r turned tho gun upon Tison, who had nppro-
lionded no danger to himself and immodintoly
Rliot him dead on tho spot, tho charge entering
his loft side below tho heart and passing entire
ly through tho body. Meantime Jacobs hnd got
somo distance away, lint not so far lmt that
Brown succeeded in getting n shot at him, hit
ting him with ono buckshot on his right shoul
der blndo, inflicting n slight wound. Circum
stances may transpire which will pnt a different
aspect upon tbo case, but so far it looks liko a
case of willful murder. A warrant for tho arrest
of Brown has boon tnken out. It is said that
all tho parties wero perfectly sober but that
Jnoolm was Romcwhat insulting in bis langnngo
to Brown.
Tho day after tho shooting, tho affair was re
ported nt Sat ilia Mills by Jacobs, when somo
fifteen or twenty negroes, employed at tho Mills,
armed themselves nnd prococdod np tho river
to Vordon plantation, where Tison’s family be
longed, intending to moet others there nnd toko
summary vongonneo on Brown and bis family.
Tison's family nnd two whito men from Satilln
Mills succeeded in dissnnding them from this
design, howovor, and they turned back after
reaching Vernon. As tho foremost boat ap
proached tho dock nt Satilln Mills, ono of tho
nogroes, named John Nelson, put out his hnnd
to shove her off from somo logs which sho was
running against, nnd by somo means discharged
his own gun, which wns pointed towards him,
stud killed himself instantly, nt tho samo timo
shooting 'William Thomas throngh his left arm,
just above the elbow. An inquest was held on
tho hotly of Nelson, at which tho above facts
transpired. A good donl of excitement exists
among tho negroes in regard to this sad occur
rence, but it is hoped that no ovil consequences
will result to tho community. Should anything
occur I will koep you infonnod.
Very respectfully yours,
Camden Countt.

She arose indignantly and replied, “with the
I woman of course, sir.”
“So would I,” earnestly replied Mr. Bacon.

A Sioniijoiot'a Qckst ron Cottos.—Tho Re
corder of Tuesday says:
A negro, Soaliorn Hammond by name, last
week broko into tho Episcopal Chnreh, in this
city, nnd stolo all tho cushions from the scats
that had cotton in them. In trying to sell tho
cotton ho was found ont, nnd if jnstico is dono
him, ho stands n very good chance of serving
the State, under Grant, Alexander A Co.
YVk havo had fine seasons in and around our
city. From wlint wo hear, there is no groat
cause of complaint among onr planting friends ;
though in somo portions of tho county not as
much rain has fallen ns in others. We put our
county down for a fair crop of corn and cotton.
Tho Federal Union of Tuesday, announces
that with that number it enters into tho fortieth
year of its oxistoncc. Still young—Mr. Union,
and vigorous. Tho editor is writing letters from
Long Branch, where, though not so young as his
papor, ho is tripping tho “light fantastic” with
tho “New York Gals," and is so stunned by
their charms that ho says of tho ball room “aw
ful beauty had arrayed herself in all her terrors.’’
Wo aro sorry for Mr. Bonghton. Let him come
homo. An editor in that fix is no fit represen
tative of a craft which is never scared or repelled
byl>oauty. However, nextday, when ho donned
his rod bathing suit, set ofl' by yellow mountings,
and crowned the whole with a broad-brimmed,
high-peaked green hat, and “went in” with the
bathers, he evidently felt better. Tho Union,
- speaking of crops in Baldwin, says :

should n woman learn to read ? Mil at wonld

must be in a close palanqnin, their faces veiled.
They know nothing except family gossip.
They cannot do the plainest sowing. The little
tow-head on the lowest bench of an infant
school in America, making patch-work, can nso
tho noedlo more deftly than most of the million
aire Baboos. Think of your little rosy-cheeked
darling, who climbs upon your knees for hor
good-night kiss, being affianced in marriage at
the age of fivo, and at twelvo being a bride—
shut np for tho rest of her days, with nothing
to do; no knitting work; no bed quilts to
make; no knowledge of needle work; surround
ed with books, yet not knowing a letter ; her
room a blank’wall; her daily duties for the re- | GREAT RHEUMATIC REMEDY ! !
mainder of her lifo being tho perfonnanee of
her daily paogsa—a worship of a little brass
or stone image, in the form of a mon
key, or a figure with six arms and four faces
—hanging flowers around its neck, sprink
ling it with wntor, bowing before it, walking
around it, talking to it ac little girls do their
dolls; lighting little wax tapers; nothing but
this, except to dwadlo hor children, bring food
to her husband and cat her own, and rearrange
the folds of cloth which answer for a garment;
doing this, and sleeping tho rest of her time
from morning until night, from night until morn
ing, throngh the twenty-four hours, the weeks,
the months, the years from childhood to old age!
Such is the doily, unvarying life of the Hindoo
women of the upper classes. The baboos, who
know what is going on in America, even to rap-
pings of the spirits, who will discuss the isms
of Theodore Parker with you, are beginning to
feel that there is an awkward gap in their sys
tem of life. The Hindoo upper classes, who
are too intellectual to be grossly sensual Baboos,
repudiate Brigham Young.
They are not polygamists ; they are fond of
their wives and treat them with respect, and
love their children, especially if they are sons.
But there is no Eve in their paradise. They
como home from their counting room when the
day’s work is done, read a play from bhak-
speare, or an article from Blackwood, or Long
fellow’s last poem, and then comes the reflec
tion that his wifo, so far as this is concerned is
an idiot. Many of tlio Baboos are now anxious
to havo their wives educated, but the women,
knowing nothing of the sweets of knowledge,
manifest but little desire to obtain an educa-
soznething towards raising the women of this
land from their degradation have seized upon
this, and are using it to great advantage.
An American ^nxENAnoNAn Exposition.—
The project for aiMtemational exposition to be
held in Washington city meets with great favor
among large manufacturers and heavy capitalists
the country over. The Express says the idea
reached a state of advancement sufficiently fa

week, to take preliminary steps.
