Savannah, Aug. 23, 1866.
HEATH OF AN OLD CITIZEN OF LIB
ERTY COUNTY.
Col. William Maxwell, one of the oldest
and most respected citizens of Liberty coun
ty, died at the residence of Abel Winn,
Esq., near Sunbury, on Sunday, the l!Uh
instant, in the eighty-second year of his age.
From the few particulars which have reached
us, we presume he died of old age rather
than disease. <
Colonel Maxwell was horn in Liberty
county, in 1784. In early life he joined the
United States Navy, then in its infancy, and
for some time was in the gunboat service.
Prior to the war of 1812. he resigned from
the navy and became a planter in his native
county. On the retirement of the late Capf.
Jones from the command of the Liberty In
dependent Troop, Col. Maxwell succeeded
him, and for many years was the cherished
and beloved captain of that fine volunteer
corps, On the visit of Lafayette to Savan
nah, in 1825, Capt. Maxwell, as senior offi
cer, commanded the squadron of cavalry
which had come to do honor to the nation s
guest, and was complimented by Governor
Troup for his skillfulness in the services ren
dered on that interesting occasion. Without
solicitation on his part, he was appointed by
President Jackson Marshal of the District of
Georgia, a position from which he soon vol
untarily retired. For many years afterwards
be held the office of Collector for the port of
Sunbury, which he vacated on the breaking
out of the late war.
He was truly one of nature’s noblemen.
Brave, generous, hospitable, genial, he was
everywhere beloved for his manly virtues
and his warm and affectionate friendship.
He descends to the tomb one of the last of
that cherished circle that gave tone and zest
to the polished hospitality of Liberty county.
“ Our fathers—where are they ?”
About a quarter of a century ago Col.
Maxwell connected himself with Midway
Congregational Church, and in that commu
nion he died, as he had lived, a modest but
faithful Christian. His end was peace. To
those who knew him, the tidings of his diatli
will be sad, whilst they will recognize in
this imperfect sketch a truthful exhibition of
one of the best models of the patriot, the
gentleman and the Christian.
Presbyterian Dissenters.—The Conler-
snee of the Presbyterians at St. Louis have
received a letter from prominent Old-school
Presbyterians in various parte ot the country,
sympathizing with their movements. Tiie
Conference has adjourned, after passing reso
lutions that it did not mean to set up a new
church organization, but cannot sit with its
GeueVal Assembly in its present attitude. It
was suggested that a resolution be passed of
confidence in President Johnson; but a re
ply was made that that would be running
into the very measures they denounced the
General Assembly for,performing.
Major Gen. John A. Logan, of Illinois, and
Hajor Gen. Benjamin F. Butler, of Massa
chusetts, enjoy the enviable distinction of
being the only prominent officers of the Fed
eral army who insist that “tbe leaders of the
rebellion” shall be punished with death. A
better state of feeling was to have been ex
pected of Logan, who has the reputation of
having been a good soldier ; but nothing
better could have been expected of Butler,
who has the reputation of having been no
soldier at all.
A Philadelphia dispatch, of tbe 18th, says
Hon. Alex. H. Stephens left for Milledgeville
that morning. It was impossible for him to
remain in the city any longer, owing to im
portant business engagements. His physi
cian has prevented him from addressing the
public, as he intended, but if possible, he
will deliver a sefies of lectures in Northern
cities during the winter.
The Murderer op Mr. Crew.—The At
lanta Intelligencer says: “The miscreant
who murdered last winter our lamented fel
low-citizen, J- R. Crew, has at length been
apprehended, and now remains in custody
at Milledgeville. He turns out nlso to he the
murderer of Mrs. Rollins, oi Wilkinson
eonnty, for which offence he was arrested
and confined in jail at Colnmbns.
Mr. H. Hives Pollard, of the Richmond
Examiner, is again in trouble. He has just
been indicted by the Grand Jury in Richmond
for forcibly entering a house aod there as
saulting and beating a woman, threatening
to shoot her. The Grand Jnry also declared
Pollard’s bail bond of $1,000 in the James
affair forfeited.
A Cincinnati paper, in speaking of the
cholera in that city, says it is a very re
markable coincidence that the caterpillars
which heretofore destroyed the trees and
shrubbery daring the Bummer months have
not made their appearance this year, and the
same phenomenon occurred in 1849, when
the cholera was so fatal.
A Georgia Professorship. —We see it
■tated that Gen. G. W. Custis Lee, son of
Gen. Robert E. Lee, who was the chief of
President Davis’ staff, has been elected the
Professor of Civil Engineering in the Univer
sity of Georgia, in place of Gen. Smith, de-
RATIFICATION MEETINGS IN THE
SOUTH.
We see by the Columbus (Ga.) papers, of
the 23d insL, that n call baa been made for
a public meeting, for the purpose of ratifying
the proceedings of the Philadelphia Conven
tion. The Enquirer urges the people, with
out regard to past differences, to respond by
attending tbe meeting, and giving their voices
to the support of the President and the con
servative men of the country in their strug
gle with Radicalism. It correctly says that
the success of the policy ol the ^President,
which will ensure the complete restoration of
the Southern States to the Union depends
much upon the manner in which the South
ern people, respopd P Con
vention al FWliuHphi«J> IK m-Slearly the
duty of every community in the South to en
dorse in like manner a movement inaugu
rated for their especial benefit. A people
that will make no effort to extricate them
selves from a perifoti* condition when the
hand of friendship is extended to assist them,
are justly regarded by the civilized world as
having been emasculated of their manhood,
and the game repiuychwill rest upon us if,
from auptoenoMcir ptfcer -^ose, we fail
to meet the expectations of our Northern
friends in an honest and zealous effort to
sustain tbe measures of reconstruction in
support of which we have been heretofore
all of one mind.
Concurring as tbe entire people of the
South do in U*e /woctojifjoUects and aims of
the Convention,it Vii fluty we owe to our
selves as well as to our friends to leave no
stone unturned for the achievment of a tri
umph over those, who are seeking to perpetu
ate our rabjflgjttkmj and to- ibis end we
should urge the most prominent oTour South
ern speakers to canvass the Northern Stales
in which the elections are to occur this fall-
If, as suggested by a cotemporary, the men
of the North could meet the men of the South
face to face, and hear them explain their
views, their opinions of tbe stale of public
sentiment in this much slandered section
would be greatly modified, and kindly
feeling and confidence, now so much desired,
would soon he established. There arc a
multitude of splendid orators in the Southern
States who could not render the country bet
ter service than to mount the stump aiid en
lighten tbe Northern people in regard to
Southern sentiment. We could name a dozen
in this State who could strike a telling blow
in the approaching canvass in New York and
Pennsylvania. Now that we have made a
solemn declaration to the North that we de
sire to return to tbe Union, and have been
assured that we will be received with respect
and kindness, it should be the • wish of all
to see tbe same spirit of enlarged patriotism,
of unselfish nationality, of regard for the
rights of the whole people that animated the
people of this country in the days anterior to
the commencement oi sectional strife, and
made their deliberations a unit. To uchieve
this, and revive tbe drooping hopes of our
depressed and almost rained people, will not
men lay aside party prejudice and sectional
feeling, discard those passions engendered in
the past, and act as wise men, looking to the
future of the South and the nation ? What
now is needed is peace. None but madmen
wish the nation to be perpetually disturbed,'
divided and distracted.
THE MERCANTILE INDEX.
In another column we publish the vale
dictory of Capt. Geo. H. Johnstone, editor
and publisher of the Mercantile Index, who
has disposed of the good will of that journal
to the proprietor of this paper. During his
management of that paper, Capt. Johnstone
has won the esteem of all who had not ac
quired it by previous acquaintance, and the
especial regard of the editorial fraternity.
His paper was a lively and spicy little sheet,
aud we regret that other engagements re
quired its publisher to discontinue it.
Rt. Rev. Bishop Veeot.—Rt. Rev. Bishop
Verot left St. Augustine last AVednesday for
Savannah via Tallahassee and Columbus. We
wish him a safe passage And a speedy return
to this field of ais labors. We are much
pleased to see that the Bishop thought of
bringing out to light the inexhaustible min
eral treasures embedded in the bowels of the
earth all over Anastacia Island. The
cochina rock, of which the Catholic Church
of this place and also t|m Did Spanish
Fort which has qgver been token by storm
as yet, are built, are considered by the Bishop
as the best building material in the world.
The rock is a concretion of small shells of
all shapes, forms, and age and stratifications.
It is a standing subject ot Mineralogy, Cou-
chology aud Geology, but as a building stone
it is soft enough to be wrought very easily,
more easily than wood, and It is perfectly
inalterable in the air, not being exposed to
crumble or to decay; the walls of the fort
are as strong now as they were two hundred
years ago. The rock looks at a distance as
beauful as granite. May the hard working
men of our place learn to develope this inex
haustible source of prosperity for the city.
We hear that the Bishop will use no other
material to build the churches destroyed by
the war. Already several squares ot rock
have found their way to Jacksonville, where
a handsome Catholic Church will soon be
erected. Fernandina and other places we
understand will soon share the same advan
tage. We hope the Bishop wfft meet with
full success everywhere.—St. Augustine {!• /a.)
Examiner.
Tl»e Philadelphia Comventlon and Secre
tary Stanton—General Grant and the
Radicals.
Washington, Aug. 19.—It is a notable
fact that the delegations from-nearly all the
States to the Philadelphia Convention, in one
form or another, have used their influence
to effect the removal of Mr. Stanton from the
AVar Department. Some of the delegates
waited upon the President in a body to uige
the matter; others deputed their chairman oi-
committees of three and five to speak for
them. The desire among those supporting
the President seems universal that one more
heartily and unquestionably in sympathy
with the policy of the Administration than is
Mr. Stanton, ahouldbO put at the head of the
War Department. It thns'beeomes notorious
that he does not possess the confidence
of' the administration party. Indeed, it
is openly charged on thp streets and in the
hotels that he is simply a Spy' on the Cabinet
for the Radicals.
Thai the President is disposed to defer to
the general desire of his snpporters for a
change in this department, seepip probable
from the intimation that the misaiyn to Spain
is to be tendeied to him. Mr. Stanton’s po
sition is one that appeals loudly for sympa
thy. In tbe present Mate of feeling in the
country he has reason to fear personal insult,
if not violence, ulmuld he come out from his
official position as plain Edwin M. Stanton.
Moreover, ha would doubtless be at once
involved in an endless labyrinth of litigation
because of his possibly neci
nevertheless harsh and severe
wards individuals in the loyal States during
the war. This consideration has unques.
tionably, been very influential in inducing
the President to retain him in tbe Cabinet until
some official vacancy abroad should occur or
could be made. Probably the first intima
tion the public will receive of any actual
change in this'office will be coupled wfth the
C nncement of Mr. Stanton’s sailing for
pe. The presence of General Grant
and his chief of staff at the intervii
tween the President and the Comm
the Philadelphia Convention, is by no
lost sight of. It has been a prominent topic
of conversation to-day, and is accepted by
all parties as indicative of the distinguished
General’s sympathy with the Philadelphia'
movement. Tb® RmM

The Provision Chops of Georgia.—The
