We thought the horses’ ailments Fell uot to human lots; The Church if not exempt it seems— A Bishop’s got thg Botts. On the Ist instant, the Rev. Thom as D. Bell to Miss Harriett Bare. He once was deemed a bold man that In Scotland dared to “bell the eat,” But uow-u-davs e’u churchmen dare Far greater feats, and Bell the Bare ! i Which merits most renown ? pray tell; Me bells the bear—she bears the bell, i On Wednesday, Mr. William Neil to Miss Jane Tier. A sad event we rather fear, She turned to kneel, and dropped a tear. On Man day, by the Rev. Seals, Hen ry W. Wright to Miss Orilu Buck.

Tue New York World has a letter from Augusta, which, while piquant onough hi its style, gives rather a cheer ing account of the position and pros pects, politically and industrially, of the conquered, but not humiliated or subdued freemen of the South. We anuex a few paragraphs that will be found readable: “the old COSTED.” And now for the Southern white, what of him ? There is but one way to put it, and that is, that “the old Coufed,” as he 1 >ves to style himself, doesn’t care a d—n. lie is growing rich, this victim is. Despite every ill of these eight years past, this wonder ful, this most amazing country is bear ing him up as a strong swimmer would bear a little lost child to the sh re.— He has gold fit home, and as like as uot a little something put away over there beyond the water, in British trust. Os course you will not see or kuow this if a casual observer; neither is it to be gathered from the columns of the Southern press. Macaulay talks somewhere of that singular style of architecture which prevails in des potic countries, whereby houses look mean and gloomy without, but are till ed with Persian rugs aud golden Ara besque within. So there is hereabouts a moral architecture which tells by a plain exterior nothing of the refurnish ing and resiting of fortunes within.— It may be a revenue man with anew despotism or one of those lice of des potism, a detective, that is peering about and asking questions, and small satisfaction will either of those birds get. It hikes a long and wide look, but the money’s there. As for what the papers say, it is a trick of the trade to talk of the extreme poverty of the South, ft r the gentlemen of the press, be it known, are sometimes apt to hang on to a good grievance for the sake of the fine periods it enables them to turn. The South is not a paradise, but it exhibits a highly remarkable state of prosperity under the circumstances, and verities in every part of it that I have seen the frequent observation, “We are coming up, sir.” In that part of South Carolina where not one man sion house in the army track was left standing, I was told but three days 6»nce that the cotton was “perfectly magnificent.” On the upper lino of Sherman’s march to the sea, one of the very best wheat crops is reported that ever grew in the State of Georgia. From Shreveport, Louisiana. I met an old gentleman who said his folks were much pestered with sundry chasings and fightings between a party of United States troopers and gome loose fish from the borders, but that the “crap was ‘fustrate ’ and “we wus a going ahead” In Alabama I asked one, who would be its Governor to morrow if the people could have then wav about it, and well does the gallant gentleman merit it, how the State was getting alej g I looked for a long re cital of unmniib “red woes, but the an swer was, “Fine; those fellows (i e the taunts) rob ns with taxes, but our peo-! pic are making money. It’ll be all right.” And th is goes tbe tone of in formation. Wherefore, as stated, the late ‘ i ebeiliouis only to be properly besc.ri! ed as n>t caring a continental 'That ‘ it’il be all right!” is the form in wk: Jii tins vis neittnee finds expression, and what that means in that liiiSgov- i t erument must have an end, and that ■ i to have plenty of money is the way to 1 1 put it down. With this it is in order j 1 to ask j * HOW ABOCT THE RECONSTRUCTED STATE j * GoVEKNMINTS? The mountain has dwindled to a ' mole hill. The great evil inflicted by • ! the negroized State governments is I . theft, They steal like cats. Perhaps : tfcey would rob if they dared, though \ I doubt whether such pitiful wretches J ' have either the pluck or the brains for j ' a big haul, but as it is they pilfer and j steal. Offences of violence arc not; i frequent. There has grown up a sort of supervisory judicature which snp : piements the reconstructed courts very well. Ais a loil man, say; he kills B, who is not a loil map, and in fact, even | one of the wicked. Now, if therecon ; structed court tries A and finds him guilty, and sentences him to be hung, i and the bogus Governor does not in terfere, and lie is hanged; then first j 1 principles lie dormant and secondary j • principles prevail. But if, out of pure J i love and affection to A, the court will not try the said A, or if, being tried j and found guilty and sentenced to be hanged, his bogus Excellency, the re- | | constructed Governor of any Southern j ! State pardon the same, then and in 1 i any such case the supervisory judica- | tuve is heard from. First principles j (see Laws of Nature, title “Self Pres-1 ervation,”) awake, and A is found i j hanged like a dog ou the limb of a tree. • ! Or, if not hanged, he leaves for parts j I unknown, and so in either case the j ; community is well rid of him and lie ; murders no more. And so, mutatis j mutandis with offences of lesser grade, j Whereby, as stated, offences of violence | are not frequent, and a reasonable state ! of peace prevails. The moral influence ofj the citizens of the South has gutted the recon structed State governments. They stand as mere hulls, and by the natural ! law of growth will soon be thrown off ns inofficious vesicles are expelled the j human frame. In such case their fi ( nancial obligations will receive a strict attention. Where the stealage is but | a small per cent., and the substance of 1 : the bonds issued has gone to public purposes, there will not be much qnes ' | tion as to their recognition; if other wise, overboard they go, S. D. [From tlie Southern Watchman* Tallulah Falls and Kacoochce Valley. Every lover of the beautiful, the ro mantic and the sublime, should visit these favored spots, where nature in rich profusion is surrounded by all that is grand, magnificent and lovely. Leaving my resting place in the deep forests above the falls, my sure-footed mule carried me down the banks of the rushing stream for many miles, when we came upon the great falls j suddenly, aud looked long and wou deringly at the terrific scene—the mad -1 ly rushing waters, whirling and leap ing from rock to precipice, fall, stun ning the senses by their deafening : roar. High up for 1500 feet, rises | cliff of rocks clothed with trees on its crest, and standing sentry to watch the ceaseless carnival. The mind is ! oppressed with the sublimity and grandeur of the scene, which was heightened by the sad associations of ! other days. We assisted in recovering I the corpse of the lamented Hawthorne I —the pious minister, the polished ! scholar and the accomplished jentle man— who visited this place in compa ny with the family Judge Clayton, and ventured too far, in his greed for sci entific lore and the enjoyment of the i beauties of nature, was swept over the : falls into the abyss below, and slept the sleep of death. By using long ropes, wo succeeded in lowering men down the deep chasm, and, tying cords and canvass around the body of the unfortunate poet, we raised the corpse to the mountain top and bore it to its last resting-place. In White’s Statis tics he is represented to have been lost forever. This is not so; he was inter red with all the honors of Christian bu x*ial. Poor fellow, he little dreamed, j an hour before, that he would be call ed to witness the awful and sublime i realities of eternity in so short a time! The ways of God are past finding out; and he was ushered into the presence of his Creator, to receive the reward of his labors and enter upon a glorious I and eternal immortality. Let us all ! be prepared at a moment’s warning, to meet our fate. Years before this sad event, C. Hanks, of Clarkesville, and Lewis Le- I vy (now of Augusta,) were enjoying the sublime pleasures of this cataract, when Hanks lost his hold of the rock and slid over the precipice 100 feet, feet foremost, like Sam Patch, and i plunged into the terrific abyss of surg ing waters below—going down, down for twenty fathoms. The boiling surf hurled him upward and threw him in to a fissure of the cliff, where, by a miracle, he was wedged in and remain ed over water. His friends had rais ed the alarm and procured bedcords from tho adjoining farmers, and let down help, who, by tying rocks to the ropes, threw them to him, and thus he drew the larger ropes and bound them round his body, and they drew him i ashore and lifted him to- tbe summit of : the cliff and thence home, where he j lived many years, a better man. 1* rom this hallowed spot we travel led to the romantic and lovely vale of Nucooehee, which lies sleeping embo- i somed in mountains, whose lofty sum mits are crested with clouds and cast! their shades into distant provinces.— 1 Old Yonah stands in isolated majesty, four thousand feet above the tide of j i the ocean; and the Tray, one thous and feet higher, whose peaks bask in ; eternal sunshine. The charming snot! is inhabited by a dozen families, who. i ai i r °“ aru l Lower Georgia, i N. Carotin*, Massachusetts and ludi- - ana. They are industrious, persever-! mg, ambitions, and, above all, pious i The well-attended Sabbath school 1 proves this beyond caviL Then- church- , es and private residences are in good m good taste, and their splendid Firms I indicate a high appreciation of science. It is h lovely valley where one mav en-! joy all the exquisite pleasures of mcm oiy —where the holy emanations of the soul commune with the angels and 1 God where all the early associations of chiiuiiuod are revived, and we once more hear the sweet lullaby of our j mothers. Its name, in the Cherokee language, means “Evening Star,” from a beautiful Indian princess who ruled the nation The Spanish chevalier ■ Dc Soto mached his army from St Au gustine, in Florida, to this place, ii search of gold. A bloody battle was fought, the Cheerokees conquered and Naeoochee was made prisoner. The fort of De Soto still remains, and also the relics of a former people, of whom the Cheerokec-s knew nothing, called the “Mound Builders,” whose ; stupendous and magnificent works of j art are scattered over Georgia and the ; great West as far as Mexico, and prove j them have been under powerful and ; despotic government, and to have been an agricultural people. They were inferior to the Mongol, but supe rior to tho Indian, Esquimaux, Malay, I or Negro. They everywhere worship ped idols—the Indians never worship ped them—and from the remotest an i tiquity has occupied the state of the | hunter. Jordine, a Catholic mission ary, converted the beautiful Nacooch i ee to Christianity, and was so greatly influenced by her that he could hard ly bo persuaded to leave, with DeSoto, ! for an unknown home. The mines i here were not rich enough to satisfy i the cupidity of the Spaniards, and ! they fought their way to the Mississip i pi, where DeSo*o died, and was by re quest buried in the turbid waters of that mighty stream. j Centuries have passed, and the An glo-Saxon, has torn up these tributary streams aud hills, and brought mill ions of gold to the eager gaze of man. Even now huge nuggets are being { found; and soon the vein or source of j all this wealth will be opened, and I craze the heads of the eager seekers and run the world wild with excite ; ment. When your humble servant i left that valley, with all its beauties I and historic associations, he bequeuth j ed to its goddess the following me* j mento: 1 Vale of Nacoocheo, adieu to your oharms, A long farewell to all I hold dear; Yet, fond recollection still my heart warms, f And gives to the past a sorrowful tear. Encircled with a halo of fanciful dreams, Oft have I wandered, in silence of night. Along the green hanks of thy murmuring streams, And giyen ray soul to joyous delight. I've clambered thy mountains, crested with clouds; Viewed the widedistanco of air, earth and skies ; Stood on the dixxy brink the abyss en shrouds, And trembled with terror, with fear and surprise. These pleasures arc gone—l taste them no more— By fate I’m drivem to a far distant land ; Yet I bond to the will of tbe God I adore, Aud cheerfully yield to Ilis chastening hand. M. S. .

B . YOUNG* OF BAKTUW. You Are Right.— The citizens of the quiet little village of Cavtersville, re fuse to allow the Van Wert Road to come into their town. The main reason we understand is, that the noise and confusion that would grow out of the arrival and departure of the large number of trains that it would require to do the work, would greatly disturb the sleeping villagers, and that tho head" lights to the en gines, would cause the chickens to crow for day, they mistaking them*for the morning sun. Smith, cant’t you remove the objection? It is a great pity to see the town, that Atlanta and Rome are to be the suburbs of, cut off in its growth by a few sleepv-heads.— Rome Com. Hark! we hear a voice from the seven-hilled “c-i-l-y" saying unto us of the little Cherokee Georgia m-e-t-r-o-p-o --j l-i-s, “build not that Cartcrsville & Van ; Wert Railroad or we ll engine you /” Do i theyself no harm, Bro.

Cam p Merilngs! Scarcely one who reads this article on camp meetings, who has advanced to mature a<_ ), but can look back, witli emotions of pleasure, to the time when they attended old fashioned Methodist Camp Meetings. It calls up afresh in their rrinds the fondest remihisences of their past lives. Many fdmiliar fa ces present themselves to one’s imag ination, whose voices have long since been hushed in the stilness of the grave, or who now roam in distant lands. — Ah! how memory loves to linger about the place, where we spent our happiest moments with the associates of our earlier days. The fond anticipations of our youthful hearts, at the approach ing season when we should pitch our tents, for a few days, upon the old camp ground, within whose borders now sleep the dust of our fathers and mothers, often awaken memory’s fond est dreams, and arouso new desires in our saddened hearts to witness and realize again the scenes that then greet ed our eyes and thrilled our souls with so much innocent delight. The old shingle roof arbour, the gushing spring, and the rude tents of rough-edge and puncheon plank are linked together in our minds with the memory of the loved tenants of the latter, beneath whose humble roof and around whose rude alters we have so often assembled and spent so many moments of sweet communion. But tho sublimest and most enrapturing thought connected with the old camp ground is “ It teas our birth, place." Ah! well do wo re member the day and the hour, while like the lame man at the pool, we lay at the altar, of prayer, waiting, in dread suspense, the time of our deliverance from the body of death—sin—when light broke in upon our benighted souls, and we felt and realized that we were “born of God.” “What peaceful hours I then enjoyed, How sweet their memory still.” The moving appeals from the man of God who stood in the sacred desk, the prayers and groans of heavy bur dened souls, the soul-thrilling and heaven inspiring songs of happy ones who stood around, and the shouts of triumph as they escaped the lips of those who had just been set free from the bondage of sin and captivity of satan, still find a vibrating chord in our memory, whenever, or wherever we think of the old camp ground of our father’s and mothers. Alas, the late destructive war well i nigh wiped out the last vestige of these hallowed places. Scarcely a camp ground is left in all the land, from the mountains to the seaboard. Will they : never be rebuilt ? We hope and trust they may, and at Pine Log, Felton’s ! Springs, and Bethlehem, in Bartow county, we hope, with orn brethren and friends, again to commingle, be- j neath the arbour, around the altar of prayer, and in the tent, as in days of yore. So mote it be. J@bW. W. Clayton, formerly of this ! county, but more recently of Atlanta,' and Treasurer of the Western & Atlan j tic Railroad, has been removed by Gov. Bullock, and Foster Blodgett, of Augusta, appoink'd to that position in his stead; Mr. Editor: I bare heard the question of building a SehoolHouse, by our Town Council discussed by several of our prominent citizens, and I must say that the ques tion presents itself to my mind rather fuvorubly, than otherwise. The only point wiie re in I w mid differ with them is in tho mutter of mixed Schools. J think that for a town, which bids as ; fair as ours, is certainly worthy of two .schools of high order. Ido not mean Colleges, but High Schools. Not that | I am opposed to Colleges, but that we j are not able to endow them. Then let us go to work and build up two ; schools, one for males and one for fe j males, and buy the necessary aparatus, and you, Mr. Editor, will sec that our j population will fust increase, by par- j ties moving in to educate their chil-; dren, and anew era will dawn on our * village, by increase of trade, eleva-! tion of morals, the cultivation of the I arts and sciences, as well as a more j extended religions atmosphere. I uu- j derstand there are several gentlemen in our midst, alive to the interest o:' education and are willing to give large amounts as individuals for these pur poses, but we do not have enough of ' these public spirits amongst us to put 'up suitable buildings, and I am one - who l does not believe it desirable, even jif wo had, for the reason that few be sides those contributing will feel di ! rectly interested in it, but when they are put up by the town, all, both rich ! and poor, will feel direct interest in their welfare, because we will all feel they arc our schools, and all will vie with each other in building up and j maintaining theso schools, instead of j keeping up six or eight schools such as ! we now have.
