Col. J. J. Howard, of this place,
showed us, a few days since, a hand

which looked good enough to eat.—
He says he will make 700 bushels of
it—no mishap. Wc would be w iliing

The wheat crop in this section is
still promising, and the harvest will
soon be here. We see some fields
which give indications of early matu

Cotton in this vicinity is looking
well, in all the fields we have notic

“chopped out” in the most of cases,
and has nothing to do now but to
spread itself, (torn too is looking
well and farmers have every reason

Already many are luxuriating on po

AMNESTY.
Who Arc Relieve*! and Who Are Not—
Exception. Under the Bill Recently
ra*»e«l by Co.igrca*.
The partial amnesty bill passed by
Congress on Wednesday leaves,
among those who are still under disa
bilities, ex-Henators Clay and Fitz
patrick, of Alabama; Robert VV.
Johnson, of Akansas; Yulce and
Mallory, of Florida; Iverson and
Toombs, of Georgia; Benjamin of
Louisiana, now a citizen of Great
Britain; Jefferson Davis and Albert
G. Brown, of Mississippi; Polk, of
Missouri; Chestnut, of South Caroli
na; Nicholson, of Tennessee; Wig
fail, of Texas; Hunter, of Virginia,
and the following named ex-mem
bers of the House of Representatives:
Pugh and Curry, of Alabama; Hast,
of Arkansas; SJott, of California;
Hawkins, of Florida; M. J. Craw
ford and Jackson, of Georgia; Lamar,
Singleton and Mcßae, of Mississippi;
Smith and Vance, of North Carolina;
Miles, McQueen, Bonham and Boyce,
of South Carolina; Avery and Thom
as, of Tennessee; Reagan, of Texas;
De Jarnette, Pryor, Bocock, Leake,
Smith and Boteler, of Virginia, and
others. The exception of the 37th
Congress was made especially to in
clude General J. C. Breckinridge, of
Kentucky, who left his seat as Sena
tor from Kentucky to aid the Confed
eracy, and served first as General,
and next as Confederate Secretary of
War at Richmond.
The list of judicial officers of the
United States still disqualified com
prises ex-Supreme Court Justice John
A. Campbell, now in large practice at
New Orleans; Judges Halyburton
uiul Brockenbrough, of Virginia, and
others. It is a question whether ex-
United States marshals or district at
torneys are or are not embraced in
this exception, and whether persons
who hmi MOttwuU t/-» li/kirl jiidiciai pOSi
tions when secession commenced,
and subsequently aided it, are or
not relieved by the bill.
There were about two hundred and
fifty officers of the United States ar
my and navy who left their places to
aid the rebellion, and of these proba
bly not one-half are now alive. The
law, however, is ambiguous, and the
exceptions may and probably do in- i
elude all those who had even been j
educated at West Point, or who had I
resigned long anterior to the rebel
lion in which they participated.
Os the number thus under disabili
ties are Gen. Samuel Cooper, Confed
erate Adjutant General at Richmond;
Gens. Joseph Johnston, Beauregard,
Bragg, Samuel Jones, Hardee, Pem-
berton, Gustavus W. Smith, Hood,
Stephen 1). Lee, Lovell, D. H. Hill,
B. S. Ewell, Jubal A. Early, G. W.
Custus Lee, now President of Wash
ington and Lee University, Dabney
11. Maury, Fitzhugh Lee, Cols. It. B.
Lee, Larkin, Smith, L. B. Northrop
(C. S. Commissary General), Myers,
(Quartermaster General), and others.
Capt. Semmes, of Alabama, Prof. M.
F. Maury, formerly chief of the
Washington Observatory, Capt.
Brooke, inventor of the Brooke gun,
and of the system of deep sea sound
ings, are the most noted exceptions
among ex-navy officers.
Jacob Thompson, of Mississippi,
Secretary of the Interior, is the only
cabinet officer of Buchanan now alive
who aided secession. But the excep
tions include also Gov. Wm. A.
Graham, of North Carolina, who was
Secretary of the Navy under Mr.
Filmore; C. M. Conrad, of Louisi
ana, ex-Secretary of War, and possi
bly some others. Henry R. Jackson,
of Georgia, and Gen. Wm. Preston,
of Kentucky, were foreign ministers,
and are therefore embraced in these
exceptions. It is hard to estimate
precisely the number still under dis
abilities, but it would not be wide of
the mark to put the number at from
300 to 500 persons.
The folly of retaining these excep
tions, in addition to the criminal er
ror of an ambiguous statute, upon a
subject where several penalties attach
to an offender, is exhibited by a
glance at the number and character
of persons who are relieved. These
embrace not only the most active ad
vocates of secession, but also some
who, since the war, have been persis
tent “ Bourbons,” and in one or more
WTCAYlani’t.Y;uleey were alive, he
would be relieved by this act. Alex
ander H. Stephens, of Georgia, Vice
President of the Southern Confedera
cy, is relived; also Governor Henry
A. Wise, of Virginia, who boasts
that he never asked for an executive
pardon ; General Forrest, of Tennes
see; Governor Letcher, of Virginia,
who ordered the seizure of Harper’s
Ferry; Gen. Wade Hampton, of
South Carolina; the Hon. Benjamin
Hill, of Georgia ; Herschel V. John
son, who ran on the ticket with Ste
phen A. Douglas in 1860; Robert
Barnwell llhelt, of South Carolina,
the oldest secessionest of the whole
South ; Jas. A. Seddon, of Virginia,
Confederate Secretary of War; L. P.
Walker, of Alabama; Robt. W Barn
well, of South Carolina, Confederate
Senator, and probably the most in
flexible opponent of reconstruction in
the winter of 1864-65; Col. G. A.
Henry, of Tennessee; the Hon. Allan
T. Caperton, of West Virginia, Con
federate Senator; Lyon, Chilton and
Dargan, of Alabama: A. W. Garland,
of Arkansas; A. R. Wright, of Geor
gia; J. W. Moore, of Kentucky;
Duncan F. Kenner and John Per
kins, Jr., of Louisiana; E. Barksdale,
of Mississippi; Bridges, of North
Carolina; Henry S. Foote, M. P.
Gentry, G. W. Jones and J. V.
Wright, of Tennessee; James, Lyons,
'John Goode, Jr., J. P. Holcombe;
John B. Baldwin, Walter R. Staples,
Fayette McMullen, of Virginia—all
the foregoing being mostly members
of the Confederate Congress. Among
the other prominent Confederates re
lieved by the bill are Chas. G. Mem
minger, ex-Secretary of the C. S.
Treasury; G. A. Trenholm, the Hon.
Thos. H. Watts, C. S. Attorney-Gen
eral ; George Davis, of North Caroli
na, do.; ex-Governor P. H. Bell, of
North Carolina; Lewis L. Harvis, of
the Virginia Secession Convention;
Messrs. A. D. Dickinson, Charles
Bruce, W. W. Crump, and other ex
members of the Virginia Legislature.
All the members of the secession
conventions at the South are reliev
ed, save a very few who may be em
braced under other heads; and this
fact, added to the foregoing list of
persons relieved, shows plainly how
invidious is the distinction made by
this law between different classes and
inviduals of the late Confederacy.
When such as Robert Barnwell
Rhett, ex-Governor Wise, and Alex.
H. Stephens are relieved of their dis
abilities, it is hard to see why others
still linger under disqualifications for
even the humblest local office, who
fully accept the results of the war as
set forth in the Cincinnati platform.
The extension of amnesty of one hun
dred and fifty thousand persons is
distinctly claimed in Washington as
a triumph for Greeley, and one of the
good results of the Cincinnati Con
vention.
A telegram from Richmond, Va.,
says that the announcement of the
passage of the partial amnesty bill
was received with great disfavor and
evident disappointment. Asa meas
ure to increase the popularity of the
Administration party in the South it
is a total failure. The great relief
needed by the South in the shape of
amnesty is the abolition of the test
oath 0f*1862, which would allow the
rank and file of the late Confederate
army to hold Federal offices if ap
pointed to any. As the matter
stands, none but the prominent lead
ers of the South are politicnlly re
stored, whiie the great mass are still
barred from holding the most insig
nificant clerkship in the gift of the
Federal Government. Until this
test oath is abolished there is no ac
tual amnesty. —Baltmore Sun.
Hon. John Goode, jr., of Virginia,
the member of the Democratic Na
tional Executive Committee from
that State, publishes a letter in the
Norfolk Journal, in which he says :
“As at present advised, I am pre
pared to support the nominees of the
Liberal Republicans, and in my judg
ment it would be exceedingly unwise
for the Democratic Convention at
Baltimore to make any nomination
at all.
MAJ. THOS. O. BARRON.
We are called upon to record the
death of another old, highly esteem
ed, and prominent citizen of Bartow
county, Miy. Thos. G. Barron, who
died at his residence on the morning
of the 24th inst.
Maj. Barron was bom in Hancock
county, Ga.. the 28th of July,. 1807,
moving with his father’s family to
Jones county in the year 1809, where
he spent his* boyhood and received
the rudiments of an education. He
graduated at the State University,
and after matriculation studied law
and was admitted to the practice at
Clinton, Jones county, Ga. On the
27th of April, 1836, he married Miss
Mary Jones, soon after which happy
event, he came to seek his fortune in
our county, settling in the new but
l thriving town of Cassville, where he
ollowed his profession with success.
From ill health he was forced to give
up the practice of law and retire to
: his farm north of Cassville, upon
which he lived to the time of his
death. His leading traits of charac
ter were boldness, firmness and hon
esty, acl aster of jewels that rarely
adorn the human heart in these lat
ter days of corruption.
There was nothing hidden in his
nature and he was easily understood,
both by friend and foe. He held in
contempt fawning sycophancy, fraud
ulent actions, and principles based
upon corruption, and was ever ready
to denounce them with stio.g lan
guage and with withering sarcasm,
j His was a cultivated mind and a gen
! erous heart from which eminated
| sparkling humor, and generous im
pulses. J n the year 1853, he piofessed
religion and connected himself with
the Baptist Church of which he was
a promineut and energetic member.
The day before his death he talked
freely with his wife of his approach
ing end, expressing himself perfectly
resigned to the will of God. A few
hours before his tongue became par
alyzed, and his eyes were glazed with
death, he called his wife, and affec
tionately and tenderly pressing her to
his bosom, expressed himself happy
in the love of Jesus, and ready for
death’s sickle, which had no terrors
for him. Calmly and serenely he
went to sleep in the arms of his
Maker.
In him Bartow county has lost one
of her best citizens, whose p’ace can
not be easily filled. The conn mnity
in which he lived has lost a good
friend and generous neighbor, and
his wife a kind husband. His chair
at the fireside is vacant, his voice is
no longer heard in the hall, and there
is an void in the heart that time can
never, never fill. May the grace of
God comfort his lonely consort, and
may her future life be marred by no
troubles or trials, and may her barque
be moored at last in the haven of
perpetual rest. C.

TERRIBLE HAILSTORM.
Large Plantations of Cotton and Corn in
Ruins—l’igs, Chickens, and Birds Kill
ed—M ies of Fencing Blown Down.
The Chronicle and Sentinel has the
following:
A letter from a gentleman of
McDuffe to a gentleman in Augusta,
gives an account of a severe hail
storm last week: A hail and rain
storm commenced seven miles west
of my home place last Friday even
ing, and lasted a mile east of me. It
was one mile or more wide, and
swept everything in its track. It
killed all of the cotton on the farms
of Messrs. James and David H. and
Willie Montgomery, and the farms
of Mrs. Polly Wheeler and Mr.
Brooks; beat the corn to pieces, and
the cotton had to be all planted over.
It killed the pigs and chickens, and
a great many birds on the above
named farms, and blew down nearly
all their fencing. It killed two hun
dred and fifty acres of my cotton
which had been chopped out and
plowed twice, all of which I just fin
ished planting over Thursday. It
tore two hundred acres of corn to
pieces, which looks like it will come
out and make something. It blew
down over five miles of my fencing,
and knocked the bark off of trees
over five years old. It beat a fine
milch cow, that I had out in an open
field, where she could get no protec
tion, so that she died. It never left
a head of oats or wheat standing
where it passed over. It only visited
one-half of my home place. It also
injured a portion of Messrs. Usry,
Story, Adkins, and others’ crops, so
they had to plant a part of their
cotton over. We were fortunate in
obtaining seed, but learn there is
over three thousand bushels for sale
in the county. It ruined all the fruit
where it went; that which was not
knocked off is so bruised that it won’t
make anything. It fell about 3
o’clock in the evening, and Saturday
morning it was two feet deep in
places where it drifted. Over four
inches of lain fell at the same time.

WHEAT, CLOVER-OOTHCALOGA VAL
LEY.
Messrs Editors :—Last week,
while visiting friends in the neighbor
hood of Adairsville, I saw some things
which may beofinteresttothosewho
are engaged in agricultural pursuits,
and which, with your permission, 1
shall endeavor to describe. I refer to
the good wheat and the good clover
which beautifies the lovely valley of
the Oothcaloga.
Having accepted an invitation cour
teously extended me by Col. J. W.
Gray, one of our representatives, I
rode out with him to look at his “ fine”
wheat —fine as I once supposed only
in the Col’s, estimation. But when
I had reached the spacious fields, and
saw “ with mine own eyes” the tall,
rank wheat—when I noticed how
thick, uniform, and regular it was, I
felt that that wheat could not be “puff
ed.” It is fine. It is splendid. It is
excellent. And this I say not only
on my own judgment, but on the
judgment of successful farmers.
In passing through this wheat I ob
served a thick undergrowth of clover,
which the Col. informed me would be
ready for the mower in 1873. Last
fall the clover-sod was turned under
and wheat sown upon it. This pro
cess subserved the threefold purpose
of furnishing nourishment to the
present wheat crop; of giving to the
clover-embryo an opportunity to take
deeper root; and of delaying the lat
ter crop until the former can be ma
tured. Thus the soil is continually
enriched, and each successive harvest
is rendered more abundant than that
which preceded it. Thus too, the un
ostentacious, the happy and contented
the ma
terial interests of their section, and
enhancing their own. As an evidence
of this, you have only to visit that
highly favored region, and see the
new residences, new school-houses,
and new barns that are going up year
by year. For time would fail me to
speak of these things together with
the good fences, the good stock, &c.,
that everywhere greet the eye as you
ride through that fertile valley. Bear
with me, however, while I attempt
a description of a barn which has been
recently erected on the place of that
unobtrusive Christian gentleman, Mr.
A. C. Trimble. It is a unique struct
ure, and one which reflects much
credit upon our county, as well as up
on its owner. It is situated upon a
hillock which is gradually sloped in
every direction, and covers an area
84x38 feet. Being two feet above the
ground, the ends are underpinned
with stone and embankments thrown
up, so as to allow wagons to pass
through it. It is designed to have an
elevator and a car, for raising and
moving hay when the wagons can no
longer drive in.
Underneath this spacious barn is an
excavation five feet deep, which, with
the two feet above ground, gives sev
en feet as the hight of the stalls below.
These stalls are regularly laid off on
each side of an eight feet alley extend
ing from end to end, and are so ar
ranged as to be provided with food
from said alley without entering
them. There is an entrance from each
side of the barn by means of an exca
vated alley which extends, with grad
ual declivity, from the floor of the
stalls to the sides of the hill. But
enough. If some of our good farmers
have an idea of building such a barn
I have no doubt that they will be ful
ly repaid by a visit to Oothcaloga.
With thanks, Messrs. Editors, for
the use of your columns, and craving
the pardon of those whose names I
have unsolicited brought before the
public, I am,
Very respectfully,
Hawote.
A MOVE IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION
Gen. Wofford, who at present has
charge of the Alabama and Chatta
nooga Railroad, as receiver on the
part of the State of Georgia, proposes
to inaugurate a most important move
ment, in which Alabama, Georgia
and ail the Southern States have a vi
tal interest. It is no less than to in
vite immigration from the great
Northwest to come and occupy the
thousands of waste places of the South
and make them “ blossom as the
rose.” Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee
and Mississippi present more advan
tages to the emigrant in the North
west than any other sections of the
habitable globe. Here lands are
cheap, the climate healthful, mild and
genial, the soil rich, the natural re
sources inexhaustible, and the geo
graphical location in ail respects de

ments to honest, industrious laborers

who wish to better their condition.
This is a move in the right direction,
and it is in the hands of the right
man. Gen. Wofford is one of the

wish him success in his laudable en

The Herald published a long report
of an interview with Win. H. Sew
ard, which is substantially as follows:
Mr. Seward being lately furnished
with a copy of Voorhees speech de
nouncing the nomination of Greeley,
he remarked: “If the friends of
Greeley are wise, they will endeavor
to get more Democratic members to
join Voorhees in his crusade against
the Cincinnati nomination. Nothing
could be better for Greeley.”
The Rockmart Reporter advertises
“ Extra Early Prolific Cotton seed for
sale at this office.” Rather lale.
THE SITUATIONS SOUTH ( AROLI-
A.
rOMX-DED.
President Gnu, in his late mes
sage to Congresaceounts for this ar
bitrary use of nver, in South Caro
lina, by publislg the report of the
then United Stas Attorney General,
Amos T. Akeifui, whom he sent on
a special find out the con
dition of lawleaess existing in the
State.
Akerman atpted the mission,
and sent in sHport, last October,
that he had/scovered that two
thirds of the of nine
counties were of the K. K.
K., and the othe Aid were in sym
pathy with them and on account of
the systematic f jury practiced* by
all the civil law ©ld not be execut
ed.
History, both rient and modern,
teaches that thejilders of property
and the intellUit citizens of the
country are eoiirvatorsof the peace,
for it is to their Wrest. Whilst law
lessness and wjpee. ate generally
caused by the iibraot, impoverish
ed, dissatisfied *ss, who have noth
ing to loose.
Before the , knowledge being
power, the iutOfirent few governed
and made laws fobe ignorant many,
and good order pvailed.
Since the war ir conquerors, with
a determinatk*| degrade us, have
subverted the gc ral order of things,
and now we and vice
in the chief sea of power, and the
good people oftmr land have to
mourn. In Sou Carolina the Gen
eral Governmea&as put a discount
upon labor, and upon idle
ness, and the ctdumers so far out
number the probers, that it is dan
gerous to own A\thing.
In this state airs the planter is
the greatesVSm.*. The nature of
his business obligekim to live at a
distance from and he is
utterly helpless.
When a nehjvjrhood of farmers
combine for iutual protection, to
keep their faiqjjfl* fr*m being ourag
ed, and their yopcity from being
stolen or destrred, and thereby
thwart these rctaW, bands of negro
thieves, the disa pointed vagabonds
immediately-rais the cry of Ku-
Klux! Ku-Klu.m;' and the wretches
are petted and reArded, and the poor
farmers are arr-tc l, or compelled to
abandon theirj4gj.es.
When I wapp Charleston, a man
high in officeoJdme, for my benefit,
that if a negr4nsultea, knocked me
down and bettooe, lie would proba
bly be arrestefcmd fined from two to
five dollars, Mich, fine would be rais
ed by sympaftzmg spectators, and
the offender ctgratulated and prais
ed. But if I jpuid do the knocking
down, 1 wout be fined from fifty to
a hundred di%rs, and imprisoned for
a month.
Amos T. Airman is no ignorant
carpet-bagger lit is true that he is a
native of Nev. Hampshire, yet for
years he has livl/ln and been nour
ished by the Saffi. He is well ac
quainted wittaog,<>ustoms and peo
ple, and he penned
that cruel nine coun
ties of the State jOouth Carolina, he
lied, and what worse, he knew
he was lying.
Who is this kiiios T. Akerman,
who had power ;c inflict more heart
suffering in a itite than even Gen.
Sherman, whenh* marched through
it, at the heat of a triumphant ar
my? •
Before the wr lie lived, a third
rate lawyer, inSHert. During the
war he commeued to show his latent
hatred for the Sati by getting the
appointment of onanissary in a Con
federate“regimen( The want of food
for our army wasyai greatest enemy,
and he knew that ini small way he
could make that w.nt greater, and
cause one regiment, it least, to suf
fer.
During the corrupts growing out
of the war, his inflted little body
suddenly bounced to he surface, and
we hear of him af figuring exten
sively in the moijrel convention
that met to retrover.Georgia.
We next hear of this ' Foundling
of fortune.” M 1 .^ted,”
net. ‘ • i.'
He well knew he was not clioser
for his talents, his address or person
al appearance, but for his ability to
do Grant’s dirty work. He had now
the power, and he went at it with
avidity. Poor creature! he should
have remembered that tyrants do not
like their tools. When he used his
poison upon poor Carolina, and
brought his murderous work and laid
it at the feet of his master, Grant in
the language of an ancient usurper
told him,
“ They lore not poisoi, who Jo poison need,
Nor do 1 thee; thougl 1 did wish her dead,
1 hate the murderer.
The guilt of eonscieme take thou for thy labor
But neither my good word, nor princely favor!
With Gain go wandr through the shades of
night,
And never show thy ;ead by day or light.”
In plain prose, Grant became dis
gusted with his cieature, aud dismiss
ed him.
Where does Amos T. Akerman
live? When he aceeeded in getting
his hands in the Tnited States Treas
ury, he resolved 6 femove from his
humble home in Rbert. He had the
land before him tahoose from, and
the means to sette any where. Did
he go to a countrywliere radicalism
was in the aseendeey, and where his
neighbors would 1 of the same po
litical faith withiimself? No, he
had more sense. He thought too
much of himself, lis property, and
his family, to trustliem in any such
section.
He wanted a afe, orderly, law
abiding place; an he selected Car
tersvilie, the couir seat of Bartow.
For the sake of ie spoils and the
party he would life to radicalize the
State, but for his on sake, he would
select a democrat neighborhood,
where the law wi enforced with
equal justice, and here every man
could sit under hiswn vine and fig
tree, with none tanolest or make
afraid.
You are safe hei Amos. Act as
meanly as you plea* politically, and
no one will molest ju.
The only thing y< aie reqnired to
defend is your own pnor, and your
office, in that respecis a sinecure.
We have too da-seated hatred
for radicalism, to and you any vio
lence. We have haiuch rotten bait
dangled at us before, Your life is a
clog to your party your violent
death would be
yankeedom.
When we meet ikunk we give
him the go-by. Livfe he is harm
less, dying he is terrfc.
People of Bartow, t us meet to
gether at the Court-iuse on the Ist
Tuesday in June, tflo all we can
to be delivered fromoe tyranny of
the present administjon.
Should Grant be reacted through
the folly or mismartement of the
Democracy, we will he inquisitors
and thuinb-screw tighiers appoint
ed among us, who wimake many
think of their mistakwhilst gazing
pensively through theirs of a jail.
