toe Base Ball ground of the Dixie Club, to
witness a ma tch game between that Club and
the Gate Cityr, (1st Nine,) of Atlanta, who had
ntver been Beaten, and who claim the cham
pionship of lie South. Nearly two thousand
people were present, and the fancy uniforms of
the p'ayers presented a highly picturesque ap
pearance. The game began, the Dixies in the
field and tlie'Gate City at the bat. Without
entering in to details, suffice it to say, that the
studen's warn the victory, the score standing
Dixie fifty- one to the Gate City thirteen. As,
however, the Dixie’s were beaten in Atlanta
list winter, the championship is not yet decided.
The third game will be played some time in the
coming autumn.
in the evening the usual Commencement
Ball took piece at the hotel, and thus concluded
the Commencement at the University of Geor
gia- Wilt.

While Httle-miijded, cowardly-hearted
Radicals are inventing hi
charges against imaginary Ka-KJux to in-
dace the Legislature to call out the militia
and inaugurate a war on all industrious
people who have well filled some hotues and
corn cribs, the balance of the party are tr
ibe their bands at- the Kn-KInx business, tl
difference between the two orders being that
the origiaal Ku-Klnx are a terror to the
guilty and punish fipwbipt criminals, while
the new order tortures and frightens only the
industrious and innocent. We haVe already
mentioned the fact that Barbour Lewis, the
blackest hearted white man in West Tenoes-
bad organized a Knklux club to soare
weak-kneed Republican negroes and keep
them in the Loyal Leagues. This report has
received additional confirmation, and it ap
pears that Radical Knklnx extend operations
far into the country, where negroea are more
disposed to be Democratic.

named William Johnson, a blacksmith by
trade, who never took muob interest in poli

county. He hired himself out to a man
named George'Williams, who lives fifteen
miles above Brownsville, and seven miles
from the railroad. Johnson was frequently
approached by white Radicals in the neigh
borhood, who made themselves busy to find
out hii politics. He kept his own oonnsels

he knew more about it. They at once de
nounced him as a secssh and a rebel sympa
thizer.
Last Saturday night Johnson was called
out of his cubin, where he was making a
basket, by three men with black faces. One
nf them, at least, had the voice of a negro.
He asked what they wanted; they said they
were friends and wanted to talk. He went
oat and took a seat on the fence. Several
others came np, some mounted and some on
foot, until fifteen were assembled. They
then asked him if he intended to Vote for
Grant and Colifax, and he told them he
would not unless he knew more in their fa
vor. Wherenpon a rope was produced and
pnt around Johnson’s neck, and the other
end thrown over-a-limb'near by/ They then
pulled Johnson up abont two feet from the
ground, tied the rope to a sappling, and left
him swinging in the air and started off with
a yell. Tne victim had; tbe use of Lis bands,
and happening to have a knife in his pocket,
succeeded in catling himself down. The
Loyal Leaguerd returned and chased him
some distance into the woods, firing their
pistols and yelling bravely. Johnson made
good lime nutil he fell across a large log and
startled a family of hogs lrom their retting
place. The Lsagners chased the hogs some
distance, thinking they were after Johnson,
while he recovered from the Btnnning fall
and slipped off in the opposite direction.
He walked to tbe railroad that night, und
reached here the following day. He testified
to these facts yesterday, and also saw on the
streets one of his known persecutors.
'l'bat Jllitoarl Kn It lux story..
St. Lodis, August 8.—A letter from War
ren, Benton county, gives an account of the
affair reported Ibis morning. It ssems that
warrants were pnt in the hands of Sheriff
Mitchell for the arrest of the twomon named
Dickinson and Harris, the former indicted
for murder. Dickinson was arrested without
difficulty, bat when tbe Sheriff 'a party ap
proached Ihe bouse m which Htrris, who is
a morose desperado, had taken relnge, ihe
demand for surrender was answered by a
volley from the windows, resulting in the
death of the Sheriff, Jasper Mitcbell, a man
named Horace K. Pctts, and mortally
wonuding W. W. Smith. Tbe Sheriff’s
party then letired. Some hours alterward
the mail coach was robbed by Harris’ gang,
and the passengers plundered of several hun
dred dollars. The letter does not mention
Ku Klux, nor does it say tbat politics in any
way was involved in the affair.
A Suspicion.—When Aaron Burr plotted
treason, he went to the then lar West to
concoct his schemes. Of late, the Radical
leaders have a habit of going close to the
Rocky Mountains every summer, there to
batch venom, and to .return laden with new
plans of oppression - and-tyranny. Wade,
Cjllax and party were out West last snm-
iner. Wade is there again this summer.
General Sherman was on the side of Johnson'
and the South until he met his tirother, tbe
Senator, on-a Western tour. 'Hia brother
promised him Grant’s p'acs as General-in-
Chief, and since then he has been lost to us.
Remembering these facts, a suspicious per
son might infer that the meeting of Grant,
Sherman and Sheridan on the borders of
Kansas was Dot accidental. We cannot help
thinking tbat tbe object of that meeting was
not to concert measures to put down the In
dians, nor to restore General Grant’s health.
We suspect something.—Native Virginian.
A Lively Town.—On the 27th nit Peoria,
Illinois, was a lively plaoe. A fight, in which
the Irish, the Germans, and the police en
gaged, raged for two hoars in the afternoon.
Daring the fracas a boy of nine yeais was
carried to the calaboose in a beastly state of
intoxication; a store on Main street was en
tered-and robbed; two girls ran away from
home and became ‘‘celebrated equestriennes”
with Lake's Circus; 'and a number of street
fights took place iu the evening. On the
oiglit before a coal miner got out of bed,
dressed himself in his wife’s clothes, went to
a ihed and hanged himself. “Besides these,”
says a Peoria correspondent, “there were 'a
few funerals.”
Venomous.—Woolwich,' England, is at
the present time suffering from a visitation,
viz: the appearance of Uiousands of muiqui-
toes, wbich have been imported on the rig
ging of ammunition vessels from Bermuda
and other military stations where the mna-
qnilo abounds. There is scarcely a man,
woman or child, out of eight thousand in
habitants in that locality,' who has not been
bitten and disfigured. Their stings pierce
through ladies' dresses, stockings and other
portions of wearing apparel, the swelling
and irritation lasting four or five days. In
some instances tbe utiDgs have been so nu
merous, in the case of children, as to endan
ger lile. ' f • ‘ 1 '
Horrible Crime.—A colored man, a na
tive of Virginia, was brought last evening to
Hudson City and lodged in jail for having *'
violated the person of a child only eleven
years of age. She is the dapgb'ler of a re
spectable farmer named John Kftkpatrick,
and was on an eryandrto a.neighbor's when
she was met abont-8 p. jn:, - at Seacancus, w
lonely place, by the negro, who took her in
amnhr eaten edtt^tifke^her life if she made
onv noise. He’thete violated her persoirahtf 1

If yon are suffering or have suffered from
involuntary discharges,^what effect does it
produce upon your’general health ? Do yo*»
feel weak, debilitated, easily tired ? Does a
little extra exertion produce palpitation of
the heart? Does your liver, or urinary or
gans, or your kidneys, treqaently get out of
order? Is your unne sometimes thick,
milky, or flocky, or is it ropy oa settling?
Or does a thick scum rise to tbe top ? Or is
a sediment at the bottom alter it nas stood
awhile ? Do you have spells of short breath
ing or dyspepsia ? Are your bowels consti
pated? Do you have spells of fainting or
rushes of blood to the head? Is your mem
ory impaired? Is your mind constantly
dwelling upon this snbject? Do yon fee 5
doll, listless, moping, tired of company, ot
life? Do youwish to be left alone, to get
away from everybody? Does any iittle
thing make yon start or jump? Is your
sleep broken or restless! is the lustre oi
yoiir eye as brilliant? The bloom on your
cheek as bright ? Do you enjoy yourself in
society as well? Do yon pursue yonr busi
ness with the same energy? Do yon feel as
much confidence iu'yourself? Are your
spirits, dull and flagging, given to fits ol
melancholy? If so, do not lay it to yonr
liver or dyspepsia. Have you restless nights?
Your back weak, your knees weak, and have
but little appetite, and you attribute this to
dyspepsia or liver-complaint ?
Now, reader, self-abnuu. venereal diseases
badly cored, and sexual excesses, are all ca
pable of producing a weakness ot 'the gen
erative organs. The organs of generation,
when in perfect health, maxe the man. Did
you ever think that those bold, denaut, en
ergetic, persevering, successful business men
afe always those whose generative organs
are in perfect health ? You never near anch
men complain of being' melancholy, of ner
vousness, of palpitation of the heart. They
are never afraid they canno. succeed in busi
ness; they don’t become sad and discour
aged; they are always polite and pleasant in
the company of ladies, and look you and
them right in the face—none of yonr down
cast looks or any other meaaness about
them. I do not mean those who keep the
organs inflamed by running to excess. Tnese
will not only ruin their Constitutions, but
also those they do business ,witn or tor.
How many men from badly-cured diseases,
from the effects of self-ab&M and excesses,
have brought about that rtate of weakness
in those organa that has reduced the general
system so muoh as to induce almost every
other disease—idiocy, lunacy, paralysis,
spinal affectiods, suicid \ and almost every
other’form 6i disease licit Humanity is
heir to, and tbe - real ? vv e of the trouble
scarcely ever suspecto (. end nave aoctored
for all but the rigiu one.
Diseases of these organs require the use
of a diuretio.
