HAVANA,
To American eyes and ears just now, is a queer
place. It was queer enough in olden days to
find oneself fresh from Republican simplicity
ami Democratic plainness, suddenly shot into a
great overgrown tangled maze of a city, whose
every featnre was the antipode of what one was
accustomed to; where peoplo neither eat, slept,
rode, walked, smoked, talked, fifing, listened,
danced or died as sober Americans were in the
habit of doing. From the cradle to the grave
all differed, not slightly but broadly—differed in
W >. But now the difference as of old exists
with the fitiper-added strangeness of military
pomp, without warlike enthusiasm, military rule
without martial exactness and discipline ; a sort
of semi-barbarous fierceness and bravado being
supposed to represent tho warrior, while vindic
tive blood-thirstiness and cruelty stand for valor
and patriotism.
Fora cold-blooded coward commend mo to
that class of Spaniards now fighting tho battles
of Spain in Cuba. In all of my experience dur
ing onr own late war—when, God knows, scenes
of cruelty and horror were by no means rare—I
can find no parallel in tho worst of our’g to tho
mildest types of their’s. Tho atrocities exceed
bolief. Tho distant reader, unfamiliar with
such scones, prono to believe that only in tho
imagination of fiends such barbarities exist,
finds it impossible to givo fall credenco to talcs
of horror which givo only in pale, bald out-lincs
an idea of tho actnal facts. The imbraited Co
manche nover graduated in a Spanish school for
tho practico of cruelty, or ho could soon get his
tribe wiped from the face of the earth. If, in
ancient times, the terrors of the Inquisition
woro more to be dreaded than tho severest tor-
i lares which a fanatic's mind could conjnro upas
belonging to IIcll, tho modem Spaniard has
not lost the application of the old, while invent
ing and improving npon it, carrying cruelty to a
pitch nover attained by the fiercest zealot in tho
good old days when tho chief end and aim of
man was to torture his brother man. If history
over gives up to tho world tho deeds done in the
Isle do Cuba during this struggle, history will
have pages blacker than those whereon are writ
ten tho horrors of tho Inquisition or tho mas-
sacro of St. Bartholomew.
ANTI-AMERICAN
Feeling grows stronger day by day. It needs
not that tho press of tho United States sym
pathize with tho Cubans—that docs not causo so
much of it; few there know aught of these ut
terances of good will and hopo. Tho Amorican
element which has thrown itself into this strug
gle ; thcro is tho rub. This is something which
they can feel—tho fact strikes them daily and
hourly; goes home to all of them; it is practical,
earnest, real. It shows just how mnch sym
pathy is felt for tho Cuban cause—each man in
his own proper person and at his own peril pnts
upon record his feelings. 'When, last January,
Hamilton put a little yacht load of men upon
the rocky beach, at Port Graranjo, few could
have imagined tho number who woro to come
after them. They wore but sixty-fivo men—
that first yacht load which left tho Florida coast
not very far from where I now write ; but they
were speedily followed by larger bands of eager
determined men—men who had stood the brunt
of a score of battles—men whom no amount t)f
danger conld turn back or cause to falter; and
it is this which brings on tho American os ho
crosses a street in IlavAuo, or enters a Cafe, or
strolls in the Plaza; tho black, ireful looks and
tho muttered curse—not over low or light—of
tho Spaniard, be ho citizen or soldier. Yon aro
made to feel it in every way possible, in all
places and at all times.
AN EPISODE OF THE WAX,
Doubtless partially familiar to many of your
readers who have seen extracts from tho For
de Cuba Prensa and other papers relative to
Hamilton, mentioned in tho last paragraph. I
say partially familiar, for the Cuban papers
knew only a portion of tho story. I shall at
tempt to givo in detail tho history of tho gallant
Major’s early struggles in behalf of Cuban in
dependence. It is enough to say that ho was
over in the van—that quietly and without pa-
A rade, scarcely known to be in tho fight, ho was
tho soul of tho revolt in more than one district.
His men would follow him wherever he would
load them, and ho would load them wherever
danger was to be met and tho enemy found.
Well, he lead them onco too often—tho old story
—rashness it is set down by those who knew
of it only as a military movement. How little
does the world know of the secret springs which
move men! How few know what carried that
dashing soldier too far at the attack of June
16th. A few in his own command knew it was
a desire to die which made him, after winning
the position, throw himself almos f literally
alone amongst a thousand of the enemy—an
enemy beaten back but still strong in prestige,
in numbers and in position.
It was the old, old story. Some pair of eyes,
blue, black or brown had looked unkindly npon
him—some voice beloved had grown cold or still:
and so when he landed in Fobruarv with his hist
reinforcement he bounded to tho saddle for
earnest work. And he had it. Deeds which
paled all of his exploits in our war—rash, wild,
desperate deeds all went safely, risk what he
plcftsed, till that fatal night. There, after a
victory—pressing a strong sullen foe, he rushed
into the very jaws of death and in the midst of
a thousand men, still fought on, on toward the
Spanish colors. He gained them but at the
moment when his men were rushing up to
support him they saw him beat down as it were
by a mob. And when they reached him, for
with a veil of vengeance they went at the foe
and rented them—he lay mangled and bleeding,
little left of tho dashing soldier who had rode
as though proof against death and harm. But
he was not dead. They bore him to his camp
and for some ten days he lived on in a semi-un
conscious state. Ono evening an attack was
made upon his camp—his men being unprepared
were driven back. When, in an hour or two,
the camp was retaken, Hamilton's body was not
to be found. Notes passed between the officers
and Christian burial was asked for the body,
etc., and promises made that it should be given.
A week later it was said Hamilton was not dead;
that he was alive and improving, and would live.
A month passed ; no further news of him, until
recently it is discovered, on tho best authority,
that he is alive, though a close prisoner. And
here the romance comes in like a novel. A
beautiful girl, a relative of some official, who
had heard much of his exploits, upon finding
bun a prisoner, made such successful interven
tion for him that, instead of being executed
privately, .or publicly, he was cared for, and
brought into a fair way of recovery. And here,
the story, bo like the novels, ought to stop.
But truth must be told, and, though it is a blight
upon the Major’s reputation for gratitude, etc.,
he persists in not falling in love with his lovely
benefactor—the blue, brown or black eyes,
aforesaid, still enthralling him—for he believes
in them. Time may give him back to his na
tive land, but time cannot wipe out the wounds
and imprisonment. From men of his command
I learned that when the news of his capture
reached this country, every officer and man of
his command who was here on sick or other
leave, went into council, and left in a body for
Cnba, resolved to get him back at all and every
hazard. All who knew Hamilton will say God
speed their efforts.
the ISKLOO
In Havana, of those who know best tho resour
ces of the Cabans, is that tho final struggle is
not far off. The Spanish leaders and troops aro
not in concert—there is no sense of trust in the
one or respect in tho other ; and but a little
time is needed to bring about a general disrup
tion of tho Spanish forces and a complete break
down of Spanish power in tho Island. Tho
sooner the better, wo piously ejaculate. Alta.

DEATH OF AN OLD CITIZEN—SEASONS AND CROPS—
LAMENTABLE AFFRAY.
Near Quitman, Brooks County, >
August 8, 1809./
Editors Telegraph ; On tho IGlh of last
month, (July.) tho oldest citizen of this county,
Mr. Elijah Beasley, died nt his son’s residence
after an illess of three weeks, at. the age of 94.
His mind was unimpaired and his memory good
for his age. I saw and conversed with him a
few months ago, and ho conld then walk two or
three miles very well. He was born in Onslow
county, North Carolina, if I mistake not, in
1775, and be was 14 years of age when Wash
ington was first inaugurated. Ho was a good
citizen, nlways temporate, and ho lived by bis
labor. His only son, now 64 years of age, is also
a good citizen.
Mr. Beesley removed to Burke county, Ga.,
when young, wlicro he married, and afterwards
lived in Bullock, Irwin and Lowndes connties,
Georgia. Wbilo in Irwin county ho held the
office of Jndge of tho Inferior Court some forty
years ago.
Tho seasons have been tmo here for some
time past, and crops of all kinds aro quite prom
ising. The people seem well satisfied with the
crop prospects at present, and they aro hoping
that if the caterpillars should come here, that
crops will not bo badly damaged, as it is now lato
in the season. A largo planter told me a day or
two ago that he thought there was no proof of
tho worms being here yet.
On Monday last, at a shop in this vicinity, a
fight unfortunately took place between two
brothers-in-law, Mr. Wiley Falterson, and Mr.
P. S. McRae, both I believe, respectable young
men. Tho Utter used his knife and cut Mr. P.
terribly in threo or four places, which come
very near causing his death, but Dr. Hitch was
soon called, and it is now believed that tho in
jured man will recover. McRao married Pat
terson's sister, and domestic difficulties, I learn,
brought about tho quarrel and fight.

1C tun"* Doing—A SI range Tale.
Forsyth, July 80, 1869.
I am eighty-four years of age, and never to my
knowledge, havo I used a pint of ardent spir
its throughout my long lifo ; and yet, no man,
lias ever drained a deeper or more bitter cup,
becanso of tho rum traffic than I havo done.
I havo been tho father of nino children, seven
sons and two daughters. One poor sickly girl
is all that remains to mo now. I was onco tho
owner of two hundred acres of land; owed no
man anything, but love and good works—now a
little cottage with a small garden and cow pas
ture is all my earthly wealth.
My oldest son became a merchant; drink was
fashionable at tho time ; ho became intemper
ate, failed in business, and at the ago of twenty-
seven died of delirium tremons.
My second son established a distillery, and at
tho ago of thirty-two, died a chained mainac,
tho inmato of a mad house—the causo intemper
ance.
My third son under the influence of Jiqnor,
quarreled with his friend—sought revenge, shed
blood and died on the gallows.
My fourth son, after years of reforming and
falling, finally perished in a snow storm. He
was found a week after, with a half-emptied
rum jug by his side.
My fifth son—he was greatly beloved—a
preacher of tho Gospel, but rum dragged him
from God's altar, and laid him in the grave of a
suicide*
• My sixth son was for threo years a clerk in the
city of New York, came home a wreck and in
four woeks died of pulmonary consumption, in
duced by intemperate habits.
My sevonth and last son, while intoxicated,
fell from his horse and had his brains dashed
Out. Ho died on tho spot.
My oldest daughter married a man who be
came a sot. She struggled long with poverty
and abuse; but finally gave way and died of a
broken heart.
My youngest and only remaining child is the
sickly girl I mentioned, tho very last fragment
of my onco promising family.
My poor wife bore long, with Christian forti
tude, the weight of her crushing woes; but na
ture gave way at last, and I rejoiced, for her
sake, when she fell asleep ill death.
I have nothing personally to fear from the
rum traffic, but four of my sons having left
families, I fear for them.
I am told to love my country. If my country
had loved mo I might have been the father of
nine living sons and daughters. Does my coun
try know that she is giving legal life and being
to a system more ruthless—a murderer more
deadly than the bloodiest sword of a foreign foe ?
or the most oppressive laws of a foreign power ?
She is cherishing a fiend that is gloating upon
the best blood of her children and sending them
to the judgment seat bereft of reason and devoid
of hope.
I am told to love my neighbor as myself.
Father of Mercies! how can I love him, who,
for money, will rob father and mother of all that
their hearts hold dear.
I will love my country when she guards my
interest and my life.
I will love my neighbor when he proves hu
man. Till then, I have no love, because no
hope.
But pardon me; pardon an old man if he
speaks warmly: let my fearful sufferings plead
mv excuse, and the magnitude of the evil it
would overthrow.—Extract from Unde Sam's
Farm Fence.
Editors Telegraph ; Hoping and believing
that the above will be of benefit to many of
your numerous readers, I take pleasure in copy
ing and sending it to you, with some experi
ence of the writer.
I am from a highly respectable and wealthy
family; was raised a pious, temperate boy, un
til I thought myself too large to be controlled
by a guardian. I became intemperate for a
short while. I saw where I was drifting to,
and resolved to live a better boy. I prayed day
and night that Almighty God might and would
give me strength to resist the temptation. It
was granted, and I joined the Methodist Church
—was a member for several years ; but, having
become negligent in my duties, the devil soon
discovered, and took advantage of me, by per
suading me to take my letter from the Church,
which I did.
A short time afterwards, having had my pock
ets filled, from the sale of a large cotton crop, I
again commenced drinking, which I have not
quit until this day.
^ When the war closed, it left me a handsome
fortune: seeing that it was wasting very rapidly,
I resolved to marry, thinking that the influence
of a wife, might reclaim me, and keep me from
utter ruin and disgrace. My marriage did not
check me in the least. About eighteen months
thereafter, I seduced the best friend I had on
earth, causing her utter ruin, all of which was
done, under the inflaenoo of whisky, and the
DeviL
Do you think there is any Heaven, for so vile
a man ? I have spent all my property, except a
small tract of land and a few stock, all of which
are very poor, and to-day, I ana out of corn,
bacon, Ac., and have no money nor credit any
where. Reader, bear in mind, this has been
accomplished only though, or by whisky, as an
instrument in the hands of the DeviL
Thousands of fathers and «nothers are this
day rejoicing over their bright, manly boys and
beautiful little daughters; but. ah, like me they
may suffer—like me go down in sorrow to the
graves if the monster destroyer continues to be
fostered by the laws of our conntry. I am to-day
an example for others to be warned by; there
fore, take ye heed, that you don’t, like me, fall
a prey to the greatest enemy to mankind. I
stand to-day, a ruined, reckless, hopeless man.

SCHOFIELD’S PATENT COTTON PRESS.
fPHIS PRESS mu t commend Itself to the cotton planters of the Southern Stales for its durability, sim-
I_ plicity of construction, and ease with which itcau be iperaied by either hand, horse, water or steam power,
tho change from one to the other being effected in a few minutes. A great advantage this Pres9 possesses, is
that it occupies for hand power only a space of fourteen feet souare, and may be placed and operated m the
Gin House, thus avoiding the necessity of taking cotton out of no house to be packed. It can be used in any
kind of weather; the Press being in the house, rainy days a-eno obstacle to packing, as i* the case with
wooden screws. Another advantage is. when you get Schofield’s Press, you have a Press for all time, and one
not liable to decay or breakage, as is the ca e with the old wooden screws, and most other iron screws and
presses This is evident from the fact that the screw is iron, either wrought or cast, and the frames are of
wrought iron, and no part of the Press liable to decay touches the ground. The frames may be made of
wood, at tho opt on of the planter. Planters may purchase either tho screw and nut alone, and put the frame
and box of wood to it themselves, or may purchase the screw, nut and iron frames, and put the wooden box
to it. or thev may purchase the Pressi complete, with screw, nut. iron frames and box, making the most com
plete Press in use. Presses complete, as last named, are in more general u?e, and give great satisfaction to
all parties using them, a« will be seen from letters in my possossian. Parties in need of Cotton Presses would
do well to call, if possible, and examine mine; or if they should favor me with their order, they may rely
upon vetting a Press th.it is ad 1 c :iim for it.

By R. B. Bullock, Governor of said State,
W berk as. It has for many days past b«en currently
reported that one or more citizens of the county of
Columbia bad been taken from the iail of said county
by members of an insurrectionary organisation, and
by them shot dead ; and
Whereas, The civil authorities of said county, being
overawed by, or in sympathy with, such insurrection
ary organization, have failed, either through fear or
through willful neglect, to report the facts to this De
partment; and
Whereas, Upon application to tho Major General
Commanding the Department of the South, I am fur
nished with the following extract from the report of
the officer in command of the troops recently ordered
to that county, to wit:
“ • * * that between the hours of 12
"and 1 o’clock, a. u., %Tuly 23th, a party of armed men,
"some 15 or 20 in number, rode into the village of Ap*-
"pling and demanded tho keys of the jail from the
"jailer, who, (he says) refused to giro them up until
"pistols were cocked and threats made, when ho deliv-
