ANOTHER KU-KLUX OUTRAGE,
Asew 1 nights ago, in the 17th Dis
trict of this county, a ku-klux out
rage was committed upon one of the
wards of the nation, the particulars
of which are about as follows:
Two white men residing in that
neighborhood, had had adiffieu’ty in
which one of them received a severe
stab from a knife in the hands of the
other one, and the man who did the
stabbing fif’d to the mountains of Hep
sidam to avoid an a r rest by the L. C.
Application was made to Justice
Ix’ake for a warrant which was is
sues 1 by him and placed in the hands
of the L. C. The man who did the
stabbing having fled the country, and
his wife having gone to her father’s,
left the house In which they had lived
without a tenant, application was
made by the man and brother in
question to the owner to rent it which
was granted. He moved into it with
his family, the negro h : mself being a
refugee from justice from Floyd coun
ty. The L. C. learning that some
body was occupying the house and
supposing it was the white man w ho
had returned, summoned his posse
and they went on the night alluded
to to arrest him. The negro knew
nothing about the circumstance of the
stabbing. The arresting parties sur
rounded the house so as to cut off all
chance for escape. The L. C. advan
ced to the door of the cabin and wrap
ped, and just about that instant an
other one wrapped at a back window.
The negro had gone to bed and was
fast asleep. The wrapping and de
mand forenterance awoke him, and
he, supposing that the ku-klux were
after him for committing the crime
for which he had fled from Floyd
co., sprang out of his bed and seized
his gun, affirming at the same time
“dat he would blow de first man’s
head off who dared to poke it in his
door.” This somewhat intimidated
IheL. C. and posse outside. The ne
gro remarked to his wife “dat he was
to he murdered dar dat berry night.”
The officer ordered him to blow up
the fire, that they might see who was
in the house. The negro threw’ a buck-
I I full of water on the smouldering
embers, remarking, as he did so “dat
dem ku-klux jes wanted him to make
a light so dey could see how to shoot
him fro:> de cracks. Again he said
to his wife, his eyes resembling two
pewter plates, “dat he was to be mur
dered dar dat berry night.” He ran
to ills little hack window and cracked
it open just a little and halloed at the
top of his voice “O, Mr. Leake !” and
scarcely before he could get it out he
would jerk the shutter to. This he
repealed several times, and finding
that he had failed to make Mr. Leake
hear him, lie fell down on his knees
and prayed as if he expected every
minute that Gabriel would blow his
trumpet, and was about to give up in
despair, when lie peeped through a
crack and saw Mr. Lowery, the L. C.,
whom he recognized. Hope was re
vived, and lie let them in. As he
opened the door he was particular to
keep behind it. After search was
made for the white man, the officer
and posse left, and again the negro
retired to bed. lie had not, however,
been in bed long before he heard a
considerable fuss up in his loft In
an instant lie lit out of his bed, at the
same time repeated to his wife the ri •
mark “dat he was to be mnidered
dar dat berry night,” when a big Tom
cat came tumbling down out of the
loft, much to the joy of the affrighted
household.
We are requested to announce that
next Friday has been designated and
set apart as a day of Fasting, Humil
iation and Prayer, by the North Ga.
Conference of the Methodist Episco
pal Church South, and that there will
be divine sei vices at the Court-House,
in this p'ace, at the usual morning
hour on that day. The public are in
vited to attend.
We stated in our last paper that
they had a headless rooster in Aibio
ta which crowed, eat and drank.—
We are requested, by one of our fel
low-townsmen, to state that he lias a
headless rooster at his house that does
neither.
Ten Cents Reward is offered for
that garrulous old gossiper known and
distinguished, in every community
throughout this broad land, as “They
Say.” II"s adherents are more nu
merous than ever leaves were in Val
ambrosia, and his rumors fly thicker
and faster than winged ants on an in
dian-summer day. If he is not om
nipresent, lie certainly has the power
of being present in many places at
the same time. If he is not inspired
with the prophetic ken of an Isaiah
or Jeremiah, he certainly foresees
many events which come to pass. If
he is not omniscient he certainly
knows a great deal more than most of
folks. He sees all things that trans
pire, and many which never do. He
presumes to know everybody and to
he acquainted with everybody’s busi
ness. His sayings are repeated at
all piaces of public gatherings, in
confidential interviews, around the
social hearthstone, and in private cir
cles. He is by fiir a more popular
author and oftener quoted than By
ron, Shakspere, or any other writer
whose sayings are recorded in history.
He was never known to be cornered,
but always manages to elude the grasp
of his pursuers. He is evidently a
very extraordinary genius, and we
want to see a character so intimately
known in every community and yet
never seen by mortal eye, and whose
footprints are so often seen, but whose
carcass has never been overtaken.
The most essential drawing lessons
are those taken at the well.
We did not wish to hurt friend
Bard’s feelings when we stated that
his paper, (the Chattanooga ( Tenn.)
Daily Herald ,) was a handsome sheet.
We judge that our statement must
have had some undue influence upon
him, as his paper has not graced oi r
sanctum since it was made.
Compton & Shockley have just re
ceived a fine lot of apples, for sale.

Ont Cherokee County Depart
ment.—We have added a Cherokee
County Department to our paper,
which will beent’rely under the ed
itorial control of our worthy associate,
Rev. P. H. Brewster, who has long
been a citizen of that county, and who
knows nearly everybody, and is also
known by nearly everybody, in that
county, and, although now a citizen
of this place, he is nevertheless ident
ified in interest with, and endeared
to, the citizens and the citizens of the
county to him. He has also engaged
the services of several weekly con
tributors to our paper in that county,
who will keep the county readers
posted as to current matters pertain
ing to the same. He will, in person,
make frequent trips to the county for
the purpose of gathering information.
We invite attention to the Cherokee
county department of our paper.
We learn that a co'-ps of U. S. En
gineers passed down Etowah river,
near this place, on Saturday last, on
the sm vey of the route for the great
Western canal, between the mouth
of Little river and Rome.
It will be seen that the Supreme
Court has sustained the decision of
Bartow Superior Court, in the case of
the State vs. Humphreys, for the mur
der of his child, at Kingston.
We are now having very pleasant
spring weather, although we have
not yet heard the merry warbles of
the blue bird or swallow.
We are g'ad to be informed that
our town council is bent on opening
Church slieet eastward to the Incor
porate line, and have determined to
track the law in so doing, so that
there shall be no after-claps.
Our brass band has been notified to
hold themselves in readiness for Dec
oration day, the 21th inst., at Cass
vilJe. The Memorial Association
will celebrate their anniversary on
that day and scatter flowers on the
graves of the Confederaie sold ters bu
ried at that place.
We saw some of as fine mutton at
Vandivere’s market, on last Tuesday
morning, as we have ever seen any
where. It could not be excelled.
Messrs. Weems A Hughes have o
pened out a stock of Family Groce
ries, in the room adjoining James A.
Gilreath’s FvrniLuie Store, on West
Main Street.
Our fat Iron-work’s boy, George J.
Brlant, has traded off his two Groce
ry Stores for the two-story brick build
ing now occupied by the dry-goods
stock of Messrs. S. A M. Liebman.
Mr. Harrison J. Sligh is now the
owner of both houses and stocks, we
learn.
Anew Boot and Shoe Stock is be
ing opened in the brick store-room on
the corner of Main and Erwin streets,
by 11. C. Hanson.
A stock of dry-goods and groceries
has been opened in the new store
room adjoining Vandivere’s market.
We see from an exchange that our
friend and former townsman, Jas. H.
Curry, now in Texas, has become a
minister in the Baptist Church, and
on the 29th day of February last, in
Gilmer, Texas, led to the altar Miss
Hattie E. Whiting, of that State.
Rev. H. B. Pinder celebrated the
nuptials.
Attention is invited to the flaming
double column advertisement of Wm
Gouldsmith, Cabinet Maker, Furn
iture and Coffin Dealer, to be found
in another column of this paper. The
old gentleman has long been a citizen
of this county, and is acknowledged,
by all who have ever patronized him,
to he a very superior mechanic. His
son, Theodore, is a chip of the old
block in this respect. They do as neat
and substantial work as can he done
in Cherokee Georgia.
Our people should not overlook the
fact, when they visit Atlanta, that
our former townsman and esteemed
friend, J. C. Martin, keeps the old
and popular house known as the
American Hotel of that .city. They
can get as good accommodations at
this house as can be found elsewhere
in Atlanta, and besides they are pat
ronizing home folks, and the nicest
and cleverest tpye at that.
Our friends and enterprising mer
chants, R. W. Satterfield, of the firm
of R. W. Satterfield A Cos., and Simon
Liebman, of the firm of S. A M. Lieb
man, will soon be home from New
York with large stocks of Spring and
Summer Goods, Ac. These gentle
men in connection with two oth
er Dry-Goods houses of Erwin, Stoke
ly A Cos., and N. Gilreath A Son, have
new and beautiful spring and sum
mer goods to sell to their customers,
this season. They are all houses of
the first class.
Our farmers are very busily en
gaged in planting corn, this week.
Peach orchards are in full bloom.
The new Methodist Church is near
ly ready for use.
Fashion Notes.— Holbrook at his
hat emporium, No. 40 Whitehall
street, Atlanta, Ga., has opened a
large and fine stock of hats for gents
and boys wear, and hats and bonnets
for the ladies. If you would have all
the latest novelties and sash ionable
caput-al adornments call at his em
porium.
J. F. Harwell informs his friends
and customers, that he has not for
got how to make wagons, lay plows,
and do any kind of work done in iron,
steel, brass, copper, silver, gold or
wood. He mends sewing machines,
threshers, gins, guns, pistols, and in
fact, if you have got any work to do
that no bodyelse can, take it to him.
1 work cheap, cheap, cheap, and that
is what the people want. I make
better wagons, 1,2, 4, or 6 horse—put
bigger lays on plows—and do any and
everything just as good as the best
can do it.

Cherokee county is greatly in need
of a Court-House, and we think our
representative in Congress should
urge the general government, as a
matter of sheer justice, to appropri
ate money to build one, as the for
mer neat and substantial building
was burned by the federal soldiers,
who did not by that unnecessary act
advance the cause of the Union to
any extent whatever.
There are several prominent can
didates in Cherokee county for the
office of Ordinary, at the next elec
tion, and we suppose somebody will
be beaten, if all the aspirants con
tinue to cherish their aspirations un
til the election is over. It w’ill be an
ordinary race of extraordinary inter
est.
End of Dog Days,—Some person
or persons, villian or villians, thief
or thieves, seem determined to put
to death all the watch dogs in town.
Several more of the canine race were
sent where the“ wood-bine tw’ineth,”
on last Thursday night. Let us keep
our shot-guns loaded, our powder
dry, and bid night prowlers beware.
Triplets.—A respected lady in
Cherokee county gave birth to three
daughters at once, the other day.
She lives near the line of the contem
plated canal, and this unusual occur
rence may be attributed to that fact.
We are also informed that a lady
in Carroll county has three sons three
or four months old, all born at the
same time. Their names are Grant .
Sherman, and Bullock. What a pity
that she did not have another so that
she could have named it Beast But
ler !
Our facetious and eccentric old
friend, Col. H., cf Cherokoe county,
says he is a standing candidate for
representative whenever a vacancy
in that county shall occur. He as
sures us that not a single friend has
urged him to run, hut that he offers
his services voluntarially and fi’om
purely patriotic motives. What a
noble example! No man in the
county stands higher than Col. H.,
and we hope that his shadow may
never grow shorter.
As soon as we are through planting
our garden and “ truck patch” we
wish to commence our Cherokee coun
ty sketches, which we will continue
from time to time, until we shall have
published the principal inccidents
which have come under our knowl
edge in that county, during the last
third of a century.
Canton, Ga.,
March 27th, 1872.
.Messrs. Editors:—Sometimeago
I promised you to write and give you
what information I could in regard to
the general news of our county. Your
paper (one of the best weeklies) meets
with a warm reception in the Banner
county, Cherokee, and its many rea
ders like to see something from home.
Yesterday a man by the name of
Satterfield was found hanging in his
house to the joist, supposed to have
hung himself. Satterfield was keep
ing Mr. Freeman Lay’s mill. The
deceased and his wife had had a fam
ily difficulty a short time ago, and the
wife had left home.
A man living some little distance
from Canton started home from town
quite drunk a few days ago, and lay
down by the road-side to sleep. The
woods were on fire at the time, but
he was too drunk to notice it, and
came very near burning to death—
loosing nearly ail his clothes.
Mr. T. B. Shockley has sold his
property in Canton (or his homestead)
to Dr. J. M. Turk, and will move his
family to Cartersville. We would
recommend him to the good people of
Bartow. Yours respectfully,
May.
Canton, Ga.,
March 29th 1872.
Messrs. Editors :—I wrote you a
few days ago and asked to pass under
the name of Crazy John, but after ma
ture reflection, will ask you to allow
the name of May. The name first as
sumed was given me by my school
mates to distinguish me from a cousin
of mine. I will try to keep you post
ed as to the news in Cherokee, and
shall do all I can for your paper.
After awhile you shall have some
thing from the candidates of this coun
ty for the next election. It is often
said that every dog has his day, and
and it is contended by some that
there are more dogs than days, and
just so with our office seekers—more
candidates than we will want until
the 20th century. The county wants
a court-house-man next time, and
they are going to have one.
Yours respectfully,
_ May.
Accident near Canton.— We
learn that a party from Canton, con
sisting of Capt. W. R. D. Moss and
family, as they were starting to a
wedding last week, met with an
accident, soon after leaving home,
which came very near resulting seri
ously. It seems that the young man
who was driving for Miss Alliene
Moss, in attempting to unloose the
check-rein, so as to allow the horse to
drink, was thrown to the ground,
and the horse becoming freightened
ran away, and as Miss Moss passed
her father, he called to her to jump
out, which she did; and Mrs. M.,
who was riding in the buggy with her
husband, becoming alarmed, also
jumped out. The ladies fortunately
escaped with but slight injuries, and
we congratulate the parties on their
narrow' escape from a more serious
result.
T. B. Shockley, Esq., has recently
removed from Canton to this place,
and we hope that he and his interest
ing family will be w r ell pleased w r ith
their new home. There is no man in
all the country whose honesty is more
uncompromising, or whose integrity
is more strict than friend Shockley’s.
We gladly welcome such men to our
town.
We are glad to learn that an effort
is being made to establish a postal
route from this place eastward via
Canton, Walesca, &c. If ever there
was a necessity for a postal route, this
is certainly the one. The people a
long it are destitute of mail facilities,
and it embraces a consideiable area
of territory. The people in many in
stances have to go ten and twelve
miles to a post office, and yet the
country is thickly settled.
Only sixty-five candidates have
reported at the “ captain’s office,” in
Americus, who are willing to sacri
fice themselves to the onerous burdens
c f the ordinary’s office.
The winter H gone, and the Spriag is at hand,
“A ad the voice of the turtle ttt heanl in our
land ;
Vbe time of the springing of flowers has come,
And the insect tribe fill the air with their hum.
The winter is gone, and again we behold
A smile on the face of the young and the old.
Who rejoice that the winter, iso long and so
drear,
(Jives place to the Spring, the best time of the
year.
The valleys and meadows arc teaming with
herds.
And the forests are Ailed with the music of
birds;
There is joy on the earth, there 's joy in the air,
For the Spring-time has come so bright and so
fair.
There is joy in my heart, joy mingled with
pain.
As I welcome to-day this bright season again ;
I rejoice in the present and mourn for the past.
And hope that the future will tie bright to the
last.
The Spring-time has eoine, and fair scenes of
delight,
Os the long, long ago, come again to my sight;
And I think of the friends I shall see never
more,
Till the winter of life with its cates shall be
o’er.
I think that to me life’s spring -time has fled,
And many fond hopes are now withered and
dead,
Yet there’s joy in the present, and the e's bliss
In the world which is fai'er cud brighter faan
this. B.
Our Corn-troversy.—Our “ nu
merous correspondents” and others,
have crowded us out for the last week
or two, and consequently, we have
some “ unfinished business” to bring
up at this time. We wish now to
say to our correspondent, “Corn,”
that we cheerfully agree to the verdict
which he proposes, and would sug
gest that we hereafter have a better
understanding of each other, before
we enter the “.field of strife.” In
this way much unnecessary thunder
may be saved. We did say in our
first article, “ farmers, don’t be de
ceived by the cry of “ plant more corn,”
but plant some corn, some cotton,” etc.
Now put on your glasses, read again,
and “ shell down the corn” like a
man!
It is related of two gallant knights,
of the olden time, that while they
were in the act of meeting each other
in full armor, on horseback, they be
held a shield suspended between
them. One of them remarked that it
was made of iron, the other declared
that it was not made of iron but of
brass. The dispute waxed warmer
and warmer until they resorted to
blows. They fought as only knights
could fight, until they both fell, bad
ly wounded under the object in dis
pute. They each looked up while in
that prostrate condition, and discov
ered when too late, that they were
both right, for the shield was iron on
one side, and brass on the other! So
it is in the case in question—it is prop
er to plant corn and cotton too. In
our allusion to “ Bunkum,” we meant
that if our remarks did not apply to
the Lands about CassvUle , and did ap
ply to our section, that the farmers in
the one locality might reject, and the
other accept if they wished—that was
all.
Rev. Mr. Sheldon, the “ second
adventist,” or adventurist, who favor
ed us with a series of discourses some
time ago, has returned North, and is
publishing in the “ World’s Crisis,”
a Boston paper, an accouut of his
“ mission” among the benighted in
habitants of the South. In one of
his articles he copies what we said,
soon after he left, about the strange
doctrines which he set forth while
in our midst, and styles us a “ would
be wise, ministerial editor,” We
“would be wise,” but not “above
what is written,” as Mr. Sheldon
seems to be. In the “ World’s Cri
sis,” there is a notice of a tract, en
titled “ The Immortality of the Soul
Refuted ,” by Rev. Mr. Sheldon. The
Cherokee Indians and the heathen
had more sense than to believe “such
a heresy, two thousand years ago !
We don’t wish to hear anything more
from Mr. Sheldon’s sort.
The wheat crop in this section
seems to be promising at the present
time.
The seats in the Court-House,
which are occupied on each Sabbath
by the Methodist congregation, we
are informed are often covered wit h
dust, and are unfit to be used by the
ladies. We suggest that a part of the
incidental fund of the church be ap
propriated to have them brushed
off.
Judge Milner, our much respected
friend and fellow-townsman, was
taken very suddenly ill on last
Wednesday evening, and since that
time has suffered very much. We
sincerely hope that his indisposition
will be of short duration, and that he
will soon be restored to perfect
health.
Col. J. W. Harris, our esteemed
associate, we are pained to annouce,
is suffering very much with rheuma
tism, on account of which he is con
fined to his room. We hope that the
pleasant weather and other means
will soon restore his health, and that
his genial presence will soon cheer
our sanctum again.
“ The Fighting Editor.” —A
note, addressed as above, came to the
Post-office at this place the other day,
but we did not take it out. We were
not the man. We have not reached
our “ fighting weight” since the war.
The right man got it, however, and
read it. There was something said
in it about “coffee and pistols for
two.” The coffee we like, the pistols
we don’t. We fight a little some
times, but like a great many others,
we prefer to use paper cartridges only.
If, however, any one shall at any
time prefer a different way ofsettling
difficulties with this office, and will
enquire of us, we think we can show
him his man. Don’t let there be any
mistake in this matter, gentlemen!
Wanted to Pay Out. —A darkey
charged with a very grave offence
was tried by the court in session here
a few weeks ago, and on being found
guilty, and sent back to jail, said to
the Sheriff as he went along: “ Look
e hea, Mr. Kennedy, what will it
take to git a feller out obdisscrape ?”
“ About twenty years of hard labor
in the penitentiary,” replied the
Sheriff. “ Ugh ! I golly !” exclaimed
cuffy.
Judge Parrott has been suffering
with quite a serious indisposition for
several days past, but we are happy
to state that his health is now im
proving. Judge Milner we are also
gratified to announce, is convalescent.
