■-.M»v«e The Daily News and Herald. SAVANNAH, MONDAY, MAY 14. 1866. [Correspondence of the Commercial.] Den Klee before . tbe Reconstruction Committee. " . The Committee on Reconstruction still persists in suppressing the most important testimony elicited | before it. Dan Rice has recently been on a circus tonr through the lately rebellions States, and has had op portunities such as are afforded to few for observing i the condition of the Southern people as to loyalty. His testimony will be found to show the true feeling that exists in the South when the thin crust of pre tended loyalty is melted away and true character is revealed under the exhilarating influence of a mena gerie, when man stands in the presence of the untamed forces of nature, separated therefrom only by-the thin partition of an iron cage. Mr. Rice being duly sworn, testified thus: Q. You have an unruly animal, kuown as a pet mule, with your circus, have you not? A. i have. Q. What are the idiosyncracies of that beast? A. He is much given te kicking. Q. It is almost impossible to ride him, is it not? A. It is. I generally offer $23 to any man who will ride him round the ring. Q. 4 On your late visit to the South, did you receive any offers to ride that mule ? A. I aid. * Q. State what occurred on these occasions ? A. In Richmond, a discharged Confederate soldier attempted to ride him, but was immediately thrown flat on his back. Q. What did the Confederate soldier say to this? A. He said the mule was a d—d Yankee cuss. Q. Did an}* others make the attempt ? A. Another of Lee’s veterans tried to ride him, and succeeded. Q. What did he say ? ^ . A. He said, after he had dismounted, that ir he d had a regiment o' them ’ere cavalry he'd have whip ped Kilpatrick all to smash; and that in the next war against the Yankees li? intended to raise a brigade of ’em. Cross-examined by Mr. Stevens: Q. Is that a.he mule or a she mule ? A. it’s a he mute. q. You have monkeys in your show, have you not ? A. I have. * g. Have you ever heard any disloyal remarks in re lation to those monkeys? A. I can’t say that I have. y. Have you ever heard anything said in their pres ence ? A. A couple of young ladies were one day standing in front of the cage, and I heard one of them say it looked like a Freedman’s Bureau. - « Q. How was this romark received ? A. It created much laughter. Q. Were there any jicrsoual allusions made on that occasion ? A. Some one in the crowd said, pointing to tho ou rang-outang, “That’s Sumner.” Q. Did that please the bystanders ? A. Very much. Q. Did you ever hear any observations about the bears ? A. I heard it said once about a one-eyed bear that he looked like Ben. Butler, and about a grizzly that it ought to be called Ben. Wade. • Q. Were the points of resemblance stated ? A. They were not. The observation was made on Die tout ensemble, with special reference, perhaps, to the occular deformity in the case of the one-eyed ani mal. Q. Have you side shows with your circus ? A. I have. Q. State if you have ever heard disloyal remarks in relation to them ? A. I believe I heard something of the kind once about Daniel in the lion’s den. Q. State what it was. A. A young lady asked me which was Daniel and which was the lion. y. What was your reply V A. I told her it was easy to distinguish Daniel from the lion, as the former wore a swallow-tail, coat, and lmd a cotton umbrella under his arm. Q What did she say V A. Alter looking into the cage she said, very spite fully. that Daniel looked like a mean Yankee, and she wished the lion would chaw him up. STATE ITEMS. The physicians of Macon have passed a series oi resolutions on the death of Dr. White, of Milledge- vilie. They are complimentary to his past life, as a physician, scholar and gentleman. The city physicians of columbus reports that on the 4th of April, there were 57 small pox cases in the hos pital ; roceived service up to May 7th, 31 ; between those dates discharged, 57, and six died ; on hand May 7th, 25—total number of cases, 88. The stockholders of the Montgomery and Eufaula Railroad will assemble in convention on the oth of June, for the purpose ot devising the most speedy means of completing and equipping said road from Montgomery to Union Springs, which, when dooe, will give an additional rail connection between the former city and Columbus. Interesting Tbial at Waynesboro.—A letter to the Augusta Chronicle anil Sentinel says : This community has been very deeply interested in the progress of a trial for the last two days on the criminal side of the Court against one of the leading citizens of the country and a prominent minister of the Gospel, on a charge of felony, involving great moral turpitude, and a verdict of guilty has just been ren dered. The defence was very ably conducted by Hon. J. J. Jones and Col. J. L Singleton. A motion has been made for a new trial, which is to be argued at next Burke Court. The South-west portion of Sumter county that was visited by quite a tornado on Saturday the‘5th mat.* trees by scores being uprooted,and in many instance, fences were blown down. Gen. E. D. Tracy —The funeral of the late Gen. E. D. Tracy, on the 10th, at Macon, was very impos ing. About II o'clock, *he funeral car, (one of the National Expresss Co’s wagons, splendidly decorated), moved off from the depot, with the remains, and were followed by the old members of Macon Volunteers, Macon Fire Department, members of the Bar, and 4 u 1 >ng string of carriages, besides quite a number ou foot. Smuggling Darkies.—W r # understand lhat more than one negro woman has been sent to jail in Colum bus for the crime of smuggling away children of freedinen. Tho object appears to be to carry the little darkies of “workable” ago to the country and dispose of them for a term of years for a considera tion. They pretend to the planter that the children are theirs. One little darkey who was missing at hie home, we are told, was found concealed in the bed of a negro woman. If the Bureau is of any account, ami what we hear is true, the practice can be easily stopped.—Columbus Sun, llth. Tbe Columbus Sun s*ys that the lightning rod on the Episcopal Church m that city was struck by light- mug on Thursday \ast. The flash and report were almost simultaneous. For a few seconds immediately after tbe report the weather vane was seen to rapidly revolve, and then to suddenly stop. No damage done, except tb'j breaking ou Broad*street of a buggy shaft by a fool horse, who was scared by the fuss. A little girl entered a bar-room, and in pitful tom s told the keeper that her mother had sent her to get eight cents. Eight cents?” said the bar-keepsr. “Yes, sir.’’ “What does your mother want with eight cents ? I don’t owe her anything.” “Well,” said the child, “father spends all his money here for ruin, and we have had nothing to eat to-day. Mother wants to buy a loaf of bread.” “Kick her out,” said a loafer to the bar-keeper. “No,” was the reply, “I’ll give her the money, and if her lather comes back I’ll kick him out.” SAWMILL!
