The Election—Carroll County.
The election in Carroll eonnty, so
far as we have heard, passed off quiet
ly and peacablv. At this place, very
little enthusiasm was manifested, bv
either party, there being 'but little
electioneerijig, or political discussion.
As will be seen by the returns which we
publish below in full, but a little more
than a two thirds vote was cast in
this county. r l he result, is perfectly
satisfactory to the Democrats, and
shows that-old Carroll’’ is still true to
her ancient faith, and is in favor of a
white ipflu’s government, upon a con
stitutional basis :
Bethune,
Harris,
O’Copnqr,
Grant,

From Vaiious Points.
From the Atlanta Herald of the 6th
the only one of our Atlanta exchanges
t hat we received of that date wo glean
the following from various points.
While the figures are by no means
considered reliable, they at least show
the drift ot the vote, and enough to
approximate the result.
Georgia —This State it is conced
ed has gone for Greeley,and elected
eight out of nine Congressmen.
New York—. This State, it is thou
ght,has gone for Grant by 2.5,000
majority,
Pennsylvania.—Grant’s majority es
timated at 90 to 100.000.
Ohio.—Grant’s majority supposed
to be btween 40 and 50,000.
Massachusettes.—Of course goes
tor Grant by a large majority, put
down at 65,000.
Alabama. —Probably gone for Gree
ley.
Louisiana.—Gone for -Greeley by
15,000 majority.
South Carolina.—Any .majority you
please for Grant
Florida. --.Probably gone tor Gree
ley.
New Jersey.—Gone for Grant by
about 5000.
the New York World’s estimate is,
that all the Northern States, with
Soidh Carolina .and Mississippi, in all
253 electoral votes, have been declar
ed lor Grant, leaving 113 electoral
votes, all from the Southern States,
for Greeley.
It thus seems.-from the above re
turns, which are more or less specula
tive, but sufficiently accurate to show
the way the thing is going, that the
North is not yet prepared to shake
hands across the “bloody chasm." In
a spirit of compromise, the South met
them on more than half way ground,
and casting aside the prejudices of a
life time, by supporting Horace Gree
ley, invoked peace and reconciliation
between the sections. It appears that
they are not yet ready to trust us,
and hereafter we must not expect,
magnanimity from that quarter.
The re election ot General Grant
means, it we understand it, that the
people of the North want a strong
government, a centralized despotism,
one which cau at pleasure suspend
that great right of the citizen, habeas
corpus, and declare whenever it
chooses, martial law over the land.
1 hey want this kind of a government, *
we conceive, in order to keep down
and crash out the spirit of the South
ern people, whom they profess to be*,
lieve still rebellious., and we, do not
look for areaolioK of sentiment among
them, in favor of a constitutional gov
ernment with limited powers, until
the iron baud ot the despotic govern
meirt which they now endorse* is laid
upon them. This, and this alone,
can make them sensible of the moti
►etev, they have been cherishing for
out < opt*- sion. which sweeps away at
a single stroke our federal system, lo j
cal self government, and the right of
habeas corpus, wrenched from tyrants
after centuries of warfare. How long,
if ever, before this reaction will come,
we do not profess to know, but if not
■soon, it is our candid opinion, that we j
may bid farewell to republican iustitu- j
tit ns upon this continent.

Oi\Saturday afternoon, it will be :
remembered, we published a brief
J i
paragraph stating that strange and
supernatural manifestations had taken ;
place at a house at No. 6, Macon and I
Brunswick Railroad.
Passengers coming up on the train
were greatly about it, atid lep
resented that great excitement pres
vailed in that immediate neighbor
hood, as, indeeds as fdr distant as the
reports had reached. Determined to
find out the exact facts in regard to
the matter, we detailed a special re
porter to go to the seenejof operations,
and will now give our readers the
FULL PARTICULARS
as detailed to us by him.
Taking the Brunswick train Satur
day night, in company with Mr. Ma
son and Mr. Campbell ; of Macon,
who were also going down for the
same purpose, our reporter, Mr. Peter
Lindenstruth, arrived at the point of
destination a little after 4 o’clock,
Sunday morning.
NO. 6, OR SURREXCY.
Getting off the train, they found
uo one in the little place as yet up,
but going to the house of Mr. A. P.
| Surreney, they were admitted to a va
cant room, the fire in which had near,
ly died out.
Wc may as well remark here that
the town or depot of Surency consist,
only of a station house, one or two
places of business and the residence of
the gentleman from which it takes its
name. It is situated in Appling coun
ty, one hundred Smci twenty six miles
from Macon, and about sixty from
Bunswiok. Mr. Suneiuy is a gen
tleman well-to do in this woikl and is
universally regarded as one of the
most honorable citizens of the county,
and it would seem that his house
would bo the last one ghosts would
select in which to play mischief.
THE FIRST BR’CK.
Mr. Lindenstruth finding the fire
nearly out, went to the wood pile to
get something to make it up. When
returning he heard a heavy thud upon
the floor of another room, as if some
thing heavy had fallen. Thinking
some member of the family had aris
en, he paid no more attention to it.—
Blit subsequent events convinced him
that, that was the first brick thrown
by the ghosts or whatever agency is
at work on the premises, as no mem
ber of the family had as yet got up.
Soon after daylight Mr. Surreney
came into the room, and after giving
his guest a hearty welcome, proceed
ed to fell from the beginning what
had takeii place up to that time.
On Friday evening a short while
before dark, the family were greatly
alarmed by sticks of wood flying into
the house aod falling about the floor
from directions they could tell noth
ing about, and without any human
agency they could see or find out.—
The wood would fall before being
seen, and what made the mystery still
more mysterious, the room into which
the wood was falling had all its doors
and windows closed. This was in the
front room.
Soon after dark they stopped falling
and was succeeded by brickbats,
which fell at short intervals Ihrongh
jut the night in every room in the
house. Mr. Surreney, his wife, two
grown daughters, Mr. Roberts, a clerk
and a Baptist minister by the name
of Bliteh were present, and with the
exception of the minister, who got up
on his horse and left, they all remains
ed awake the whole night. Notwith
standing the windows and doors were
tightly closed and no opening left in
any portion of the house, and these
brickbats continued to fall, but al
though sometimes just missing,, not
one struck any person.
botit.es and glass take a hand.
Soon after the bricks commenced
falling bGttles, vases and glass ware
generally, commenced jumping from
their usual places, falling au<i break
ing. Mr. Surreney seeing the de
struction going on, directed a negro
man to take four bottles containing
kerosene oil out of the house and
place them in the yard. No sooner
had he set them down when one flew
back, fell in the middle of the room,
scattering the oil in every direction
The whole family jaw this. It seem
ed to come down from the ceiling
overhead, and indeed every thing that
fell did so perpendicularly—that is to
say came straight down from above.
These strange antics continued ivith
scarcely one minutes’ interruption un
til daylight Saturday morning, when
they ceased, leaving the house nearly
bankrupt in.crockery and glass ware,
t and a large quantity of brickbats and
billets of wood around the floor.
That afternoon or on Saturday, 19,
they commenced again pretty much
in the same manner and doing about
what had taken place the ißorning an< *
nigtyt previously. The family which
had now been joined by many neigh
bors, watched every nook and corner
of the house, to detect, and if possible
to unraVel the mystery. But so quick
ly would pitchers, tumblers, books
and other articles jump from tiieii po
sitions and dash to the floor the e\e
could not follow, and broken fiag
J. W. Roberts and Daniel Cal ler
and Linderstruth and Mason, were
standing in the front room, a chamber
glass w.as smashed into fifty pieces in
the centre of the room. They were
at the time intently watching every
thing visible in the room, but none saw
this until alter the vessel was broken.
THE EXCITEMENT EXTRA TRAIN.
So rapidly had the news spread,
and so great was the excitement, the
Macon and Brunswick Itailroad diss
patched an extra train on Sunday. It
arrived at Surrency about three o’clock
in the afternoon with seventy live peo
ple on board.
Bnt the ghosts, or whatever else
they may be called, did not choose to
give them any manifestations, ami the
train left in about an hour, taking
most of them back. A few remained,
however, determined to see into the
matter. There were at least three
hundred or four hundred persons pres
ent on the ground during Sunday,
and up to the time our reporter left
fully live hundred had visited the
place.
OTHER SIGNS AND WONDERS.
While all these things were going
on in the house, the kitchen depart
ment was by no means idle. Butch
er knives, pots, skillets and crockery -
ware were falling around loose to the
terror of the cook.
Another mysterious thing occurred
on the first or second day. Little
piles of sugar totally unlike anything
of the kind then used by the family
were found upon the floors of the res
idence In one of these a fe\y pins and
a Bteel pen were found. y™
various other incidents of this tota .
| incomprehensible mystery related to
and seen by our reportei, but enough j
have already been given.
* WHAT IS IT ? #
No one who has ns yet vis.te.l the
ulace can give any rational theory
as to theaffenny which produces these |
strange sights. Mr. Suiie»icv iS a
plainfold fashioned Geogia gentleman
and is greatly annoyed and disgusted j
■Kith the whole proceedings. He per
■emptorily refused any compensation j
■'em any one of the two or three hun- j
Bred persons who have eaten at his
Bible. If they are produced by mag' ,
Biets, they l'rtust be of a different kind
Brom any ever known.
B We must leave the question to
Borne one elsa for solution.
B At the time our Macon party left j
Beople were coming in from all di j
Bections, and we presume the excite
Inent continued to-day unbated.

I Y, e copy above an account of myste
-I'ions manifestations at No. 6station, on
|he Macon & Brunswick Railroad, in
|\ppling county, from the Macon En
lerprise, for the amusement of our
leaders. Whether it is a hoax or not
■ve do not pretend to know. We c!io
It further account of the sensation
■from the Enterprise, of Monday last
If or what it is wort It.
Bear in mind that the report had
Ireen credited that these troubles arose
Ironi the fact of Miss Surrencv be
lug a “medium,” and had‘been
pent away, audit was our purpose to
Interview her and ascertain what she
lu.ew about throwing brickbats. We
■were well received by Mr. Patterson,
Iwho furnished us with sugar cane and
la recital of all the strange occurrences,
lie was an intelligent and truthful
■gentlemen and we believe his report,
lie stated that the first occnrrance
happened at Mr. Surrency s house in
Ibis manner r Mr. S. had ‘ gone down
lon a visit on Thursday, 10th inst., to
[No. 7, and was to return that evening.
[When the train was about due, (it
was then about dark) Miss Clemen-
Ithine Surrency went to the railroad,
IwhUsh runs nearly by the gate of the
house, to meet the train. While
Booking in the direction of the train,
[towards Macon, she saw something
Bn the shape of a man, dressed in
white, coining towards her. Being
Brightened she ran so the house, but
laid not reach it before a light wood
|knot fell within a few feet o? her.
This was followed by a shower of
them and a few brickbats.
Previous to this, the family had
often teased her for being “scary,'”
and she did not make much mention
of it before her mother. A negro
plowman was then sent out, but he,
too, ran back, for fear of being struck
by tiie falling bits of wood. Mrs.
Currency, thinking someone was
throwing at the house, went out and
she too saw the wood falling in every
direction.. It then ceased outside and
began to show “itself” in tho house.
Crockery, etc., began to fall and break
and everything was consternation.—
Mr. llamp Surrency, brother of A. P,
was sent after and saw the strange do
ings. There was no sleep in the
house that night. What happened
after that has been reported correctly
in a former number of this paper.
Thinking that his daughter might
be the cause of the trouble, he sent
her with her mother to Mr Patter
son’s when ttie strange things began
to occur there. A washspau was on
the water shelf nearly full of \vatel\
and while Mr. P. was about five steps
from it, fell at his feet spilling the
water. Chairs would tip over, shoes
would fall about, etc. Mrs. Surrency
went home leaving her daughter at
Mr. Patterson’s, and the trouble com
menced at home on her return. W(
saw Miss Surrency and found her to
be a beautiful and modest young lady.
Having to go to church we failed to
be introduced to her.
On our way back to the Station we
turned the matter over in our minds
as to the cause. It could not be Miss
Surrency for she was absent part of the
time the things were occurring ; it
could not be the little negro girl for
she was sent and Known to be away
part of tbe time ; it is impossible that
Miy human being could have done
things that did happen (or the best
men of the country lie,) and there
fore, the only cense ,we could as
sijrn was that spiritualism was the
agency, and that Mrs. Surrency is the
medium. This conclusion may be
hasty and ill-founded, buthaving plied
questions and travelled over the entire
place, and collected all the facts poa
sible, this is our solution.
Mrs Surrency is the only person
who lias been present at any occur;
renee, and her statement can be relied
on as she bears an irreproachable
character and has no desire for notori
ety.
The occurrences ceased Friday
night last,.and we hope will never oc
cur again.
