Our “Pond Fork corespondent** sends

Every bo ly seems to be pleased with the
election, so iar as heard from. The farmers
ot this section are about done gathering their
crops, with the exception of a little cotton,
and are in full blast sowing wheat. The past
week lias been a magnificent one. We have

To be Resurrected.
For reasons unknown to the writer hereof,
we understand the remains of Col. T. T. Do
rough—who, it will lie remeinbere 1, was kill
ed, or supposed to have been killed, on the
N. E. railroad, some five weeks ago —were to
be “resurrected” Friday, the 1 Uli. at 11, a.
m.. under the direction id’Coroner Yearwood,
who had summoned a Jury of Inquest, to ex
amine more minutely into the cause of the
sudden death of the unfortunate man. Some
suspicion of foul pi iv. may 1 >e t he cause of this
action in the premises. In our next, we
hope to have more definite information on ihe
subject. Col. Dorougb’s remains were buried
near Esquire John Pru itt’s, in Banks<!o.
Knights of Honor.
We notice that this organization ins taken
a high position in many parts of Hie country, 1
among those who advocate secret societies
as auxiliaries to the spread of principles of,
charity and benevolence. While in Athens,
the other dav. a highly esteemed gentleman
and friend, handed the writer a "Constitution
and General Laws governing the Supreme;
and Subordinate Lodges of the Order/’- from
which the following extract, ns showing the j
“objects of the corporation,” is taken:
1. To unite fraternally all acceptable white
men of every profession, business and occu
pation.
2. To give all possible moral and lhatcrial
aid in its power to its members, and those j
depending on its members, by holding moral, i
instructive and scientificin lectures, by en- !
coil raging each other in business, and by as- j
sisting each other to obtain employment,.
3. To promote benevolence and charity by |
establishing a Widow's and Orphans’ Benefit
Fund, from which, on the satisfactory evi- 1
donee of the death of a member of this Cor
poration who has complied with all its lawful
requirements, a sum not, exceeding TWO
THOUSAND DOLLARS ($2,000) shall be
paid to his family, or as he may direct.
4. To provide for creating a fund for the
relief of sick and distressed members.
5. To ameliorate the condition of humani
ty in every possible manner.
We shall be pleased to show this publica
tion to any one desiring to look at it. At
the same time, it must be conceded that the
*2.000 “feature,” is a matler well worthy of
consideration by those who desire to leave
something behind for the bereaved wife and
little ones.
A “ New Departure.”
The Elherton Gazette, one of our best filled
and handsomely “made up” country ex
changes, in adopting the “Cash System,”
gives the following good reasons for the
“new departure” :
Always in* Advance. —As previously
announced, we to-day commence the work of
striking from our subscription book all who
have not paid for their paper in advance, and
hereafter the rule will be inviolably observed
that subscriptions must be paid before the
name is entered on our books. If our friends
knew the difficulties we had labored under in
the past, they could readily appreciate the
stop we have resolved upon. It is not a
question of willingness to pav on the part of
the subscriber, but it is one of ability on the
part of the publisher to bear the burden which
an indiscriminate credit system imposes.—
\Ye have now due us several thousand dollars
for subscriptions alone, and, with our limited
capital, we are unable longer to carry this
heavy load. That is all.

PsPln a conversation with one of the best
informed citizens of Athens, on Monday
morning, he gave it as his opinion, that the
receipt of Cotton at that point would be, i er

000 would be saved to the farmers of the sur
rounding country, by the N. K. railroad, in the
convenience and reduction of freights by the
building of that road. He also remarked, at
the same time, that the business of the road
had far exceeded the expectation of its
friends.

CdF’TlieNashville Christian Advocate says :
We deeply regret that Nashville, last week,
was made the scene of pigeon-shooting, with
the usual betting and dissipation. Really,
we seem to be going back to the age of bar
barism. What can be done to stop this re
trograde movement?
Whereupon, the Zealous Christian, of Gum
ming, Forsyth co., Ga., rises up and says :
“Is that all ? Well, we have a little cif v—
“ Is it not a little, one? that can beat pigeon
shooting so badly ! We boast that there is
not a single liquor-house in our town, and
yet, we have, perhaps, more drunkenness ex
hibited on our streets t han almost any town
where there are liquor-houses. And then our
•‘City Fathers" make no effort to abate pul •
lie disorder. We think, from what we have
seen and hear 1, that the boys of the place,
and the worse ones who visit us. sometimes,
might just pile brush around the court-house
and burn it down without danger of molesta
tion by the authorities.”
Now, Bro. Laine. in all the kindness of
heart of which the writer is possessed, he sub
mits—lie “suggests”—that if the estimate
von here give of the people of your own part
of the “moral vineyard," especially those
‘City Fathers,” is at all correct, you are rob
bing your Master, you are doing injustice to
tiiose people whom you are sent “to seek and
t.o save,” if possible—from the error of their
ways—in quitting your own field and travel
ing (in imagination) away down to Jefferson,
•o see wliat, the eld< rs and de tco.is of an op/ o
site “household of faith” are doing. We do
not pretend to say any of our folks, including
tho *e deacons and eld rs or even the City Fa
thers, ore “perfection personified;" still, we
hardly think any of them—even the “vilest
sinner"—would stand by and see our old
rickety Court-house burned down, and not
offer to molest those who commit ted the crime !
No. brother your row is too wide, and there
V
are too many thorns and thistles to hoe out, to
admit of spare time on your part. Lo >k well
after tiiose Court-house burners !
As to the “vulgarisms” of which you com
plained so bitterly, we have but little to say.
Freely it is admitted, that other and more
dignified expressions could have been employ
ed, and. perhaps, would have been more suit
cd to the taste of very ref tied readers ; but
those phrases are just about what is heard—
comparatively speaking—in the levity and
facetionsness of everv-day conversation.—
They were not “used in connection with the
church.” They applied simply as they were
expressed ; and the writer thinks it no dis
paragement to any one concerned, to repeat,
that according to his idea, were in keeping
with a majority of the large number of tempe
rance addresses listened to within a period
of near forty-five years. And, just by way
of parenthesis, it is remarked, the language
referred to, was in keeping—if not far in ad*
vance—of a great deal that has been learned
during the same length of time, from some
(said to be) most excellent Methodist preach
ers.
As to using church edifices for secular pur
poses, we agree with Bro. Laine, in his main
points. But circumstances alter cases, and in
absence of more suitable places for temperance
or kindred meetings—then, we think, the
“ end justifies the means.” If we arc to be
very nice on this point, it appears to the mind
of the writer, that it is just as improper to
hold a “Lord's meeting” in a building that
has not been “dedicated” to His service, as
to hold a secular or non-religious meeting in
the house that had been set apart for that pur
pose, And, finally, good brother, in our ad
vocacy of good and denunciation of evil let us
all be careful, lest we be as “blind guides,
which strain at a gnat and swallow a e.a
mel.”
Just Penalty of the Law.
In the County Court yosterday was tried a
somewhat novel case for court dockets, but
one which might be much more common if
such culprits could be discovered and appre
hended. The facts were that a vonng negro
girl, just grown, with that disregard of the
rights of the “poor white trash,” which was
common immediately after the war and which
we vainlj* hoped had long since disappeared,
walked deliberately against two small white
children on the sidewalk, and then because
they did not get out of her way. assaulted
them violently. The case was brought before
Judge Halt, of the County Court, by affida
vit of the father of the abused chiMren, and
upon conviction, the offending party was
sentenced to a tine of thirty dollars and costs
of court, or in default, six months- in county
