THE EASTMAN TIMES.

WEDNESDAY AUGUST 27, 1873.
TRIP TO MONTGOMERY
On last Thursday wo donned a clean
paper collar, brushed our hat, turned it
slightly on one side to make it look
different from our every day costume,
and in company with Hon. John A.
McMillan, Ordinary of Montgomery,
left the sanctum of ‘the people’s paper,’
and boarding the down train we whirl
ed away from Eastman en route for
Mount Vernon, this town so famous in
history as the birth-place, the home
and the tomb of the immortal W ash
ington. We incline, however, to the
opinion that there is more than one
Mount Vernon, for somehow Die muddy
Oconee won’t tally with the descrip
tions which we have had outlie placid
Potomac, that majestically sweeps by
the home of the Father of his Country,
nor can we find any XT the evidences
*
of its former and so we are
constrained to j J©nclude that it is a
fraud so far as Washington is con
cerned. Nevertheless, it is quite a
town what there is of it, but sadly
needs building, up. Leaving the M.
& B. train at McVillo, we took passage
on a four mule locomotive, this being
the best conveyance at hand, and
launched out. Inasmuch as thunder
in the distance warned us of bad
weather, we borrowed an umbrella
and sallied forth at a break neck pace
of two miles and a half an hour, with
a quixotic ‘‘nigger” as conductor, who
rejoiced in the unpretending cognomen
of “Billy Button.,’ Toward nightfall
the rain set in and we hoisted that
umbrella, fondly thinking we were
protected from the weather, but an,
how uncertain is human hopes. It
only served to break up the drops and
distribute them evenly over our per
sons. The Judge is naturally a quiet
man, and wo were somewhat aston
ished at the amount of rhetoric which
he used upon the umbrella makers. —
His elocution was copious and varied,
andlyet it rained. Nine o’clock found
us at Sheriff Couey’s, where we
stopped for the night and partook of
his hospitality.
FRIDAY MORNING
the sun rose bright, sweet and smiling
as the rosy flush which tints the cheek
of maiden modesty, and partaking of
a hasty breakfast, we were soon on
the road. Ten o’clock we drew rei
in Mount Vernon. Here we found
stores shut up, business suspended
and everything quiet as the morn when
aurora plumes her first blush to herald
approaching day. We cast about us
to learn the reason, and soon found
that
PROFESSOR GROOMS
had a singing school in full blast.—
Never having visited an entertainment
of the kind, and there being nothing to
pay (else we would have been unable
to attend, time being precious, &c.,)
we went in. \\ o thought it then, and
are still firm in the conviction that is
a good tiling—to get boys and girls
together and open up avenues for good
old-fashioned courting The Professor,
however, was earnest in his endeavors
to teach them tne science of music,
and unquestionably knows all about
his business. Our opinion is
we whisper softly in the ear of our
readers and they, we hope, won't tell
him) that he finds time during recess
to make music of another kind to one
fair—but what are we doing ? We
came very near saying something we
had no business.
SATURDAY EVENING
we went out in the country to visit an
01. l and valued friend, the widowed
daughter of the late lamented Hon.
W;Usy Adams. Here we spent a most
delightful night with tin's truly charm
ing family, and on Sunday morning,
being provided, through her kindness,
with an ani-mule and bugory
in company with her fair daughter, we
had the pleasure of attending* preach
ing at
BETHEL CHURCH.
The Rev. Mr. Connelly, of the M. E.
Church South, preached one of those
good old-fashioned, heart-stirring, in
formal sermons, that went straight to
the hearts of his heavers, and mode
more than one strong man weep as a
little child.—True, it was a simple log*
church; no resounding ceiling gave
back the echo of his impassioned voidb;
no cushioned pews nursed the lassi
tude of his congregation, but the spir
it was there, and when he came down
ou the Uoor and asked all those in the
Church and out of it, who had resolved
to seek anew-the Kingdom of Heaven
and to dedicate themselves more effect
ually to the service of Gad to come, up
and give him their hands, there
one after another nearly th' whole
congregation, and with lr !l ' s stream
ing from his eyes, he talk‘d to them of
God and Heaven, and aborted them
to press forward lin'd strong men
wept and shook with he intensity of
their emotions like leaves blown by
an angy wind. Truly, it is many a
day since we have seen such a season,
and when we left we felt that it was
good for us to have been there. For
the good old minister will our pray#rs
ever ascend that his zeav may never
grow less in the cause of Christy may
his work never fail of its reward, may
he souls for his hire and with
those he has helped to redeem; may
he sing anew song around the throne
of God in Heaven.
Returning from Church, and bidding
a reluctant adieu to our kind friends,
we spent the night in Mount Vernoy,
with our friend, the Judge, and early
on Monday morning, through the kind
ness of our clever friend, J. E. Hicks,
Esq., we left for home, and thanks to
the fleet foot of “MoJlle Brown” were
at McVille in ample time to take the
up train. We brought back with us
many happy remembrances of the
pleasant trip, and much regret that
we haven’t time and space to speak of
the fine crops and many other items of
interest which we picked up on this
most pleasant little tour.
A Lady in the Case.
An old story, but a sweet and
touching one, is that of woman’s de
votion and self-forgetfulness in sea
sons of sorest sorrow. The double
railway disaster of first a frightful
collision and then an explosion of
lqpomotives which occured at midnight
on the Chcago and Alton road, was
enough ro paralyze the strongest
nerves, but the awful crash, which
sent some from the sleep of life to
that of death, was to many of the wo
men, so rudely aroused from re
pose, an opportunity for a work of
humanity. The conductor of the
sleeping coach tells a straightforward
story, which needs no embellishment
of polished phrases to adorn the an
gelic work of these volunteer sisters
of charity: “First thing I knew the
ladies, God bless them! were tearing
up their underclothing to bind up the
sufferers. Why, sir, in half a minute
they had scarcely anything left on
them. There was around one man’s
hand a lace handkerchief that must
*<■ J*
have cost a small fortune. One lady
into my hand tip
around a man’s arm, which looked
like—well, under clothing. I could
not stand that any longer. I did not
care what the company said, so 1
just gave orders to open the lockers
and tear up anything that came
handy. And they did. There were
two or three ladies tearing sheets into
longths to bind up wounds, while a
half ad >zen others were binding them
around the bloody arms and bodies of
the wounded men. There was one
little lady who was an angel; she
worked —how she worked!
her card. God bless her, and he
handed the reporter a card marked
“Mrs. Robert McCart, No. 212 South
Center street, Bloomington. * “1
said I would get her name into the
papers, and she begged me not to.
But there it is.” A glorious girl, Miss
Tracy, the daughter of the ed.tor of a
paper in Houston, Texas, distinguish
ed herself for her devotion and careful
attention to the sufferers, who were
racked with every torture. Earth
has no medal nor tribute of honor that
can heighten the beauty of this loving
kindness, which sparkles up in the
fell tide of womanly devotion and
sympathy in the arid waste of human
selfishness like a fountain in a burn
ing desert.— Courier-Journal.

Ail Amorous Carpet-Bagger,
THE BIGGEST PROPOSAL OF MARRIAGE ON
RECORD.

The following letter was received
at the Treasury Department yesterday:
Jackson, Madison County, Tennes
see, August 7, 1873. —Ladies of the
Tr usury Department of U. S., Wash
ington, D 0.: De t *r Ladies—The writer
was in Wasnington on M mdoy last,
and among the many scent's which
fell within his view, of curiosity, art
and beauty, the finest of them all was
the general appearai.ee of those fair
ones who dwell within the walls of the
great cash-h mse of the broad nation.
And as was the Persian Shah charm
ed with the art and splendor of Eng
lish institutions, so was the aforesaid
writer allured with the beauty of those
fair ones.
I, perhaps, would rather have known
some of you separate, but how to form
the acquaintance of any of yon, as
Hamlet says, that was the question
then; but fortune favors the brave and
never abandons the just, and in that
hour she stood by me and kin lly whis
pered write to all, and so 1 did it.
And in this letter I would make
manifest the feelings of iny heart if
language was ade pt ite to thus ex
press these sorrows. I want those
who want to be married ladies to write
to me at once and let know th -ir
terms.
You may think that character has
compelled me tp wander
to tin 1 affection* but the facts in Male
Pase are that I am a carpet-bagger,
and have a pretty fair struggle !•> live
among these heathens, with much less
to make any pretensions toward their
daughters. So those who help the
sad soul of suffering humanity in tlm
dreary hours of impending danger will
write me a letter and bid me live in
hope. My age is 22, and 6 feet tall,
and fair to look upon; my name for
this time I withhold, and those writ
ing will for the time address “(J. A. L.”

“ are not obliged to tell how the
following funny letter fell into our
hands—all* the reader has to do is to
load it and laugh at it. We congrat
ulate the new made pa-ri-ent and hope
ho will get over his confusion of ideas
shortly, so as to be able to tell his ba

Dear Sister .Emma: I now take my
seat and sit down to take this oppor

as ever made up faces. We hope
these few lines may find you enjoying
the same great blessing. Now this is
to be a strictly business letter. First
ly, as I said before, Addie has got a
nice baby. Nextlv, I have swapped
away Old John and think i have a

weighs nine pounds—l mean the baby
—it is just as fat as butter, and has a
good strong pair of lungs. She is red
and a bobtail—the horse I mean and
a white stripe in her face, and is a
good drive; she has got blue eyes and
a dimple in her chin—l mean the ba
by—and just the prettiest mouth that
ever opened to receive pap; judging
from her teeth I should think
six years old—l mean the horse now
—she is sound, smooth and kind I
mean the horse or baby either, now—
the doctor says she is the fairest Ik*
ever saw, without any excepti< ms—he
meant the baby—] g ()t twenty-five
dollars to boot, not on the baby though
for in its case the boot is on die other
foot, and two or three sizes larger as
near as I can find out. lam going to
harness the horse now, and go after
mother; she was born last night at
twenty minutes past nine—l hope - ()u
don’t think I mean mother or the
I mean the baby. She is hearty as a
pig: eat an egg, a biscuit, drink three
cups of tea—l mean Addie-she is
i
getting 1 along nicely and if hlic don’t
have any bad luck she will get along
first-rate. She is subject to disorders
of the stomach; and they say it is a
sign of colic—l mean the baby—l hope
it is, for the nurse says colicy babies
never die bhe talks about her nose
as she takes snuff—l mean the nurse.
lam going to name it Idierna —I mean
the baby. Then', I’ve been reading
this over and 1 see plainly that it aint
fit to write. The amount of it is, lam
frustrated; I am a happy daddy, and
that accounts for it, so you must ex
cuse me this time.
The Florida Cotton Crop. —The
Floridian of the 19th say.-:
The caterpillar, we believe, remains
about in statu quo. Several planters
have been eaten entirely out, and
many others are apt to be. The crop,
it is thought, will turn out much bet
ter than last year, but not like it prom
ised a short time since. Three or four
weeks ago, the prospect of a large crop
was perhaps finer than any year since
the surrender. Avery large quantity
of improved seed was planted, and
the crop had been well cultivated and
was fruiting; but alas for human cal
culations—man proposed, but the
caterpillar has disposed almost as
fully as usual.
There seems to be no doubt that the
“poison business’' will pay, and next
year the planters will take time by
the forelock and get the start of tli 1
worm. But query—how many of us
will go under between now and then?

| sad and fatal affV v at Swainsboro,
; Emanuel county, vvc copy from the
I Savaumih News of the 20th instant
The parties were both intimate friends
of ours, and it is with unfeigned sad
ness that we chronicle this most un
happy event.
A correspondant at Bartow sends
us the following particulars of a
bloody affair that occurcd in Swains
boro, Emanuel county, on Friday last
file affray, sad and fatal in its conse
quences, was between Mr. J. C' King,
of tin’ law-firm of Ward & King, and
Mr. Bruce McLeod. The parties en
gaged in an altercation about some
family matters in the office of Messrs.
Ward & King. McLeod called King
a damned liar, when King struck
McLeod with his fist. The latter then
drew his pistol and made an attempt
to tire, but it would not go off, until
McLeod had tired four times. Ilis
last shot penetrated the breast of
King. The pistol of King then went
off, the ball striking McLeod in the
bowels. Mr. King died in five min
utes and Mr. McLeod died on Satur
day evening. Mr. King was a high
toned Christian gentleman and leaves
a wife, two small children and a large
circle of relatives to mourn his loss.
McLeod was a single man.
The Columbus nigger is a genius of
expedients. One of them wished to
stop some cars on a down grade the
other day, so he placed <iu© 4*u<l
short pole on the track in front of them
and stood on the other end. When
the wheel struck it he “went up,*’ and
describing a few beautiful paribolic
curves in the air, lie lighted astride .of
a hen-coop in a neighboring yard.—
Here he suddenly formed the acquaint
ance of a ferocious bull dog, who in
sisted vigorously upon sampling the
elasticity of the colored cuticle that
'invested his internal improvements.—
Not caring to continue the debate he
concluded to go up in a mulberry tree
to get a good breeze, and readied the
top in time to see the cars run off the
track at the lower end of the switch,
which happened to be open. The
damages were S3OO, and he belongs
to the company for the next twelve
months.

In a pretty piece of road they eon -

horses. At the top of their speed.
Buntiii‘s horse flew the track, and
throwing the ruler high up ah wi

instantly.
The deceased is said to have been
a pious, quiet young man, and great

The Savannah Daily Nornino News is ac
knowledged by the press and people to be the

ol New Orleans. Carrying with it the prestige
and reliability of age, and it has all the vigor
and vitality of youth, and its enterprise as a

astonshed its cotemporaies and met the appro

During the year 1573 no expense of time,
labor, and money will be spared to keep the
Morning News ahead of all its competitors in
Georgia journalism, and to deserve the flatter

the consequence, is that the reader in search

and better digest than other papar in matter

It is perhaps needless to speak of tho poli
tics of the Morning News. For yours and
years indeed, since its estalishment, —it has
been a representative Southern paper, and
Irom that time to the present, in all conjunct

labored, with an ardor and devotion that know
no abatement, to promote and preserve the in
terests and honor of the South.
ihe special features of the Morning News
will be retained and improved upon during the
ensuing year and several new attractions will
be added.
The Georgia News items, with their quaint
and pleasant humor, and the epitome of Florida
affairs, will be continued during the year.
