be careful, as a member of a certain socie

in his way. He expressed his willing

If. Chandler, town marshal, summoned

F. Northeraft, whose conduct at the time

by Chandler and the citizens lie resisted
arrest and called ou some roughs to assist
him. A general row ensued—a number
of shots being tired by both parties. Chan-*
dlor, the marshal, killed Northeraft- and
some of Norther.ift’s friends immediately
killed Chandler. General excitement fob'
lowed the killing but no other rows oc
curred. ! J
Counsel: “I mean did you and Mr.
Young discuss the case between him and
Mr. Isaac’s ?”
Witness: “No sah! we nebber cuts one
word about it, no sah ! I’se a member of
dc church. I nebber <:»«*-,and Mr. Young
didn’t cuss about de case neither.”
This answer brought down the house
aud closed any further search alter truth
by defendeuta Counsel.
The only criminal case tried daring my
stay was the case of the State vs lssac
Foster for perjury, resulting in a verdict
of guilty.
With the exception of the city of i
Macon, Tiiouias county has one of 'the
best aud prettiest Court Houses I have t
ever seen in the State. And the most
miserably kept Clerk’s office. It is almost
without furniture, and entirely without
system. Neither present Clerk nor any
of his predecessors have ever indexed
single record of any kind, confusion
reigns supreme in papers of every sort,
yet, the sapeiut (■?) Grand Jurors call the
books of the Clerks office neatly and cor
rectly kept.
I found business here exceedingly dull.
Financial matters taut, aud merchants

cross-examining attorney: “©id you not

Arrival of a Leopard-
A day or t wo ago the Hamburg steamer
Klopstock arrived at New York from
Hamburg, having ou board a large mate
leopard, purchased from the Hamburg
Zoological Society for the Society iu this
city. Tvie animal is valued at about two
thous.-in 1 dollars, and is the .size of a large
bloodhound. The barge Chesapeake ar -
rived at this port yesterday with the ani
mal on. board, aud after being inoore l at
Pier No. 4, near Arch street wharf, a deck
hand had occasion to go into til t hold of
the vessel, when he found, to his aston
ishment, the leopard outside of the cage
in which he hi 1 bee 11 placed. He iinm;-
diately gave the alarm and had the hatch
way secured.
Ou Thursday afternoon the vessel was
towed lo the middle of the channel, an l
an attempt was ;u id e.to secure the aaim il
bat up to last evening this ha 1 Lot been
accomplished. The affair caused consid
erable excitement- along the w harf, but
this, in a great measure, -,ubtided after
the vessel was taken to the middle of the
stream. As there ln;l been no food giv
en it sir.ee Wednesdays, ' it was thought
that by lowering a cage into the hold
with some meat in it lie would be templ
ed to enter it.
Up to a late hoar last night the beast
was still at large in the hold of the barge;
all efforts to secure him in his cage prov
ing fruitless. The barge continues to be
anchored iu the stream, opposite Arch
street, an 1 all day yesterday .she was sur-
rouuded by tug boats, ready to render any
assistar.ee.
A large crowd was gathered on the
Wharf all day yesterdays watching the
barge and awaiting further developments.
A number of plans have been suggested
to get the leopard back safely in his cage,
aud yesterday afternoon an attempt was
made to keep the cage close by r an aper
ture made in the hold, and then smoke
the animal out of the hold into the cage ;
but this and other plaus failed.
Duriug last evening a successful effort
was made to corner tiie animal in the for
ward part of the hold, and he still remains
there, with bat little room-to move about
in. Water, was freely poured into the
hold during the evening, the pump of a
steam tug being used for the purpose, but
the beast was not to be driven in ids cage
by that metins. It was also tried to capt
ure him by means of a lasso, but he evad
ed the noose each time the rope was
thrown at him. The- barge will remain
at anchor in the river until the ieopard is
secured,—Philadelphia Inquirer l'Ofh.
Bishop Haven Only Wants to Pray
for Grant s Re-election
That mouth ing, meddlesome, mendacious
old monomaniac, “Gil Haven,” writes a
long letter to the New York Tribune, in
which he endeavors with characteristic
cunning and duplicity to shirk the respon
sibility of his recent political faux paux in
nominating Grant for a third term. He
denies that he formally nominated Grant
at the Boston meeting,or that he endeaov-
ed to commit the ministers of the Metho
dist church, of which it was composed, to
the support of the thin! term movement.
He did make a little speech, in which he
eulogized “the great soldier who saved
the country',” and he called upon all good
MethixUats to “praythe.-re-election of
President Grant,” to which they respond
ed, “Amen.” He says :
. This is the head and front and Saak and
rear of my offending. Nor ]s this an of
fense. Prayer carried O'lr country into
and through the great struggle a century'
a<ro. Prayer carried us into and through
the great-struggle, a decade ago. Prayer
must carry usThrough the struggles yet
before us Prayer is the Christian’s es
pecial privilege, the minister’s especial
duty. -I have prayed many a time in my
pulpit for previous Presidents, even for
their ejection, and attended prayer meet
ings for that purpose. So have thousan ds
of ministers. If any. body of Christians
Young j chooses to pray for the reitomination and
i rp-elecuon of president. .1 don^ |
are weH informed of what really did take 1
place at the Boston Meeting, and who de
nounce the action of Bishop Haven as an
Impertinent and mischievous intrusion of
politics where such subjects are out of
place. -
If Bishop Haven only wants to pray,
and cannot find sufficient employment in
praying for the pardon of his own sins
and the spiritual welfare of the fiock en
trusted to liis care, why let him pray? We
are taught that only “the prayers of the
righteous availeth much.” Therefore
there is no reason why even those who
oread -ueh a calamity as another term of
Ri ’i .i: "'eiis noi ’“Agst, should pb ; .
jc-ct to Bislt ;> Haven’s employing his
time in praying fur his re-nomiuatiou.
What all good men do object to is his at
tempt to drag politics into the pulpit and
to inaugurate a religious crusade.—Sac.
Eeira.
McDonald s new story i
Checkmating Bishop Haven-
A Washington dispatch states that Mr.
Bpringei, of Illinois, the author of the
anti-third term resolution adopted by the
House on Wednesday, was warmly con
gratulated upon the success of fcis move
ment by liis fellow-members, and asked
how he had come to introduce his resolu
tion, to which he responded : “I am a
Methodist, but I am opposed to a third
term. So when Bishop Haven down
there in Boston the other day put Grant
up for another term, I thought I would
show t he country' that all Methodists were
not for Grant, aud I wanted to see just
how Congress stood on the same ques
tion.”

The celebrated author, in this a hub-able
Essay, clearly demonstrates, from a thirty
years’ successful practice, that the alarming
consequences of eelf-abuse may be radically
cured without the dangerous use of internal
medicine or the application of the knife;

every sufferer, no matter what his condition
may be, may cure himself cheaply; privately,
and radically.
