this boy being unable to swim, was drowned in a

Hood and Johnson.
A correspondent writing from the Alleghany
Springs, Vs., says:
“ Jnst now there are not more thau one hun
dred and fifty people here (though nearly all the
best quarters are engaged), and among them 1
find several disiingu.shed families .'rc.-m the South.
General J. B. Hood is here, with his wile and fam
ily, which is a thoroughly representative one.
Mrs. Hood is a tall, elegant and beaut if ul lady
Tue General use& crutches, though a wooden leg
supplies the place of the one he lost at Chicka
manga, and the strength of hi 6 arm is somewhat
impaired by the wound he received at Gettysburg.
Otherwise he is as healthy, handsome and hearty,
as he ever was in bis lile. Though only married
since the war, General Hood has lour of the pret
tiest children I ever laid my eyes on—two of them
twine —and all so near of a size that it is hard to
tell which is the oldest. But what astonished me
most were the nurses—four nurses for four chil
dren ; and they all seemed to be busy—in fact, to
have their hands full. Three ol the nurses are as
jet black as coal, and are young plantation ne
grosses from Louisiana, while the tourth is an old
plantation mammy, evidently a family lelic, who
will die as she has lived among her old people and
her best friends.
“ Many a poor, old Southern negro woman re
grets the day she forsook her old owners, when
emancipation proved rather a curse lor them than
tbe blessing for which it is intended. General
Joseph E. Johnson, now visiting at Abingdon,
has engaged rooms here, aui, with his beautiful
and accomplished lady, will spend the season
here. And this is a coincidence—Hood and John
son hobnobbing it at the same watering place.
Johnson, the most distinguished of all the living
officers of the J!e Confederacy, Hood, the bravest
and most gallant, who, by virtue ot Jeff. Davis,
superceded Johnson in command of the army at
Atlanta and left the way open for Sherman’s
inarch to the sea. Had Johnson been in command
the way would not have been so easy, and the ob
structions might have been serious enough to
thwart the Lieutenant General’s design. But, I
suppose, Hood and Johnson will meet as old
companions in arms; by-gones will be by-gones,
and they will talk over the past as ody two dis
tinguished and great officers who have done their
duty can afford to do.”
A Contbast.— When James Buchanan was
President of the United States he occasionally,but
not very often —for he had old-fashioned ideas of
duties —paid a visit to his modest home at Wheat
land, and who will forget it that has ever enjoyed
its genial hospitality ? It was the abode of intel
ligence, aDd moderation and kindness, not only to
the parlor visitor, bat (what was very impressive)
to the poor turnpike wayfarers, who knew when
their benefactor was at home, and were sure of
his chsrity. No retinue ol lackeys followed him—
do trian of private secretaries, and cooks, aHd en*
gineers and gardeners. Qe paid his Lancaster
market bills out of his own pocket. This was the
case in what our Republican friends are fond of
calling the bad old times of Democracy. What
the condition of things now ia, our readers may
learn from the following extract from the Wash
ington correspondent of a well-formed New York
journal:
“ General O. E. Babcock, Engineer in charge of
the Washington Aqueduct, Commissioner of Pub
lic Buildings and Grounds, Colonel of Engineers
United States Army, and Private Secretary to the
President, started from this city to-day tor Long
Branch, taking with him a number of gardeners,
who are to be used in putting the grounds and the
garden of the President's seaside residence in
order. These men are part of the force employed
here to take care of the public grounds; and while
it may be economical, so far as the President's
pocket is concerned, to take them away Irom
their work here, it is expensive for the Govern
ment Not only will their pay run on as if at
work here, but tbe cost of transporting them to
Long Branch will be charged to the Executive
Contingent Fund.
“ But this Is not the only abuse which the Pres
ident tolerates in this connection. Nearly ail of
the household servants, the cooks, butlers, etc.,
who are paid by the Government for services in
the Executive Mansion, are taken to Long Branch
every season, and in this way the Seaside White
House are run out of the funds provided solely
and only for the Washington White House.
“ These are well known facts here.”
The Modocs’ Retengb.— The treachery of the
Modocs in murdering the Peace Commissioners
brings the history of the former massacre, in
which eighteen Modocs, peace men, were mur
dered in 1852. North California was disturbed by
Indian troubles that year, and a company, under
the command of Captain Benjamin Wright, was
organized and proceeded from Yreka to the In
dian country around Tule lake and the lava beds,
and fought three unsuccessful battles, the forte
being Insufficient for the subjection of the Mo
docs. They returned to Yreka and organized a
large force and then marched again to the Modoc
country. Approaching they fonnd the Modocs’
supply of blankets, ammunition and food entire?
ly exhausted, and consequently the Modocs were
anxious for a cessation of hostilities. Captain
Wright received the Modocs" overtures with great
cordiality, a peace conference was agreed upon
and place appointed in the immediate vicinity of
the massacre of General Canby. At the confer
ence about twenty-five Indians and thirty white
men were assembled; while discussing terms,
Wright gave his men the signal and in a moment
they had killed eighteen Modocs. Seven Modocs
escaped and were pursued. These were the fath
ers of the present Modocs. Capt. Jack was then
but nine years old; John Schonchin nineteen;
Boston Charley and Hooka Jim, two years. It is
probable that revenge grew with age, culminating
in the Canby-Tnomas massacre.
Some years afterward Wright was appointed In
dian Agent at Rouge river, and was apprehensive
of Modoc vengeance. One night an Indian chief,
Enos, murdered and terribly mutilated Wright,
ard was a.terward captured and hanged He died
exulting that he had wreaked vengeance on the
leader of the massacre of his tribe.— Democrat*
Watchman, BelUfonte, Ih.
Ben Butler and the Temperance People.—
Gen. Butler’s nomination for the Governorship of
Massachusetts was beiore the State Temperance
Alliance last Tuesday. The Alliance, however,
couldn’t make its mind whether the General was
to be trusted to enforce tie liqnor law or not, end
took a fortnight to consider the matter. One ar
dent gentleman supported Gen. Butler’s nomina
tion in rather a questionable war, by saying that
he “would rather have a devii in hall aho would
enforce the liquor law, than an angel of light who
would do no more than Gov. W&shbcrne has.”
We would suppose the General would get tired of
being considered no more than a convenient fiend
Incarnate. But somehow this is the reputation he
haa acquired, and to these uses very virtuous folks
seem willing to put him. They forget that the
fiend incarnate may, in the end, prove a very
tronbleaome and unsatisfactory monster. If be
should be elected to enforce the law and then
shouldn’t enforce it, the kettle of fish would be
altogether too pretty for human nature’s daily
ood. Pious folks who use fiends incarnate to fur
ther pious ends, may find that they have engaged
in a somewhat impious business.—AVw Turk Tri
buru, 2SiA.
Th* jury trying the HaUiiay Will case, in Sa
vannah, last week’ failed to agree upon a verd ict
and a mistrial was ordered.
FORSYTH, GEORGIA, TUESDAY' MORNING, JULY 15, 1873.
Locked Out.
’Tis useless to try the door,
O pitifui woman of eiu!
O woman, eo gaunt and so thin,
Use vain entreaties no more.
O woman with lalsely-red cheek,
O woman so wan and *o weak,
’Tis useless to try the door.
Oat in the pitiless cold —
Witb your ragged cloak of deceit,
Out in the curious 6treet,
Bew idered, alar from the fold.
Vaguely wauderiDg up and down,
’Mid jest and laugnter and frown,
Afar from the sale, happy fold!
’Tis useless to try the door,
They hear your (altering rap
In the cLeery parlors, mayuap,
But they’ll open to you no more;
The sound makes sweet faces Irown,
For you they’ll never come down
To open the bolted door.
You’ll wash your garments anew ?
Ah, the stain will never cojpe out;
Eyes will glare with scorn and with doubt,
No matter what you may do;
The voices of young and ot old
Will bid you stay out in the cold,
No matter what you may do.
’Tis useless to try the door,
O repentant woman of sin 1
Ah, yes, it all might have been,
But naught can avail any more.
Straying feet, you canuot go in,
Frantic heart, you are lost for your sin—
They will not open the door.
No matter for your few years,
The hearts of young and ot old
For you are bluer and cold.
No matter bow for your fears.
Only Christ will offer you grace,
And pity your poor hollow face,
When you wash His feet with your tears.
The Walworth Verdict.— Charles O’Conor,
when asked what action counsel would take in the
Walworth case, said >
“ Well, I don’t know; it is difficult to say.”
11 Will not a bill of exceptions be drawn up and
presented to the Court on Saturday next, when
young Walworth appears for sentence ?"
“ Oh, no. It is not certain that a bill of excep
tions will be presented at all. In any case it is
not to be drawn up by that time. Judge Davis
said something about a mouth hence being 6et
down for such a hearing.”
“ Were you satisfied with the verdict If”
“ Not by any means. Why, of course, I ex
pected an acquittal.”
“ What does young Walworth think of the ver
dict ?”
“ Why, poor boy, wbat can he think. It was
like applying a spark to powder, and it would be
just as sensible to send the spark to the Slate
prison for life because the powder exploded. Here,
he had always carried a pistol when meeting bis
father ; and, half asleep at the time, who can be
surprised at what occurred.”
“ And how does the Walworth family feel,sir?”
They’re a wonderful family. I knew nothing
of them until I was called into the case. And Mrs.
Walworth—she’s a wonderful, she’s a splendid
woman. She would stand by if it were necessary
and see her boy banged without shedding a tear;
and yesterday she heard the verdict without
flinching. Such a verdict could have no effect on
a woman like Mrs. Walworth. If the jury had ac
quitted Frank, then 6he would have wept, but not
in any other case.”
“ Well, sir, no action has yet been taken with
reference to a bill of exceptions.”
‘‘No, we've had no time, even if one is pre
sented. Mr. Beach is away in Albany, and be
sides, nothing of the sort will be done on Satur
day.”
“ Will you tell me, sir, why you asked that sen
tence might be deferred until Saturday f”
“ Well, now, if Ism going to be hanged, of
course I want all the time I can get to make my
will and do other matters of tue kind.”
‘‘Bat young Walworth is not to be hanged 1”
“Of course not; but if a man is going to be
imprisoned for life, it is no good to hurry mat
ters. ’’
Genius ir Ruins.—One evening when we were
at an entertainment in Washington, Daniel Web
ster was one of the guests. As he entered the
parlor, before being introduced to any one, he ad
vanced to the table loaded with liquors, and drank
two glasses of wine. He then lifted the third
glass, and, looking eagerly at it, said to the doc
tor near at hand:
“ Doctor, what makes that sparkle so ?”
The doctor undertook to explain, but bis expla
nation was not satisfactory to Webster. His pri
vate secretary then advanced, and in clear, elo
quent terms gave the explanation. I listened with
deep interest to my old school-mate and friend.
My admiration of his brilliant powers was kindled
to a glow of enthusiasm. That young man was
giited beyond most whom I have known. But he
fell before the grand destroyer of gifted minds.
A while after he went to his boarding place at
pight, intoxicated. When the lady knew by his
boisterous conduct that he was drunk, she called
to him from a window to go away. He replied
with insolent language. A man was near by, at a
pomp, for water. He also called to the drunken
man to go away, and esnse his insolence. Upon
this he rushed at the man, seized him bp the
throat, and both fell together in the struggle. The
man, defending himself as best he could, dashed
the glass he held in his hand into the young man’s
face. It broke, and gouged out one of his eyes.
Some three months he lay in a critical condi
tion, bo corrupted was his blood by drink. He
was afterward removed to the home of his hon
ored father. But the lesson wa3 of ne avail. He
drank op, and goon ended his days in delirium
tremens. One of the most gifted of all the sons of
New England, he died as the fool dieth, and Alls
a dishonored grave, a sacrifice to the drinking
usages of public men and fashionable society—
Nat. Temp. Advocate.
A Warning.—A rpan died in Worcester, Mass.,
the other day whose career ought to be for young
men the most effectual of temperance lectures.
Twelve years ago he was a young lawyer in Con
necticut, of uncommon abilities and brilliant prom
ise. ge entered the army and rose to the rank of
colonei, but he became addicted to drink uqd rap?
idly sank to the grade of a drunkard. While intox
icated one night, in a low den in that city, he was
“stanghied” aboard a bark bound for China. The
vessel was wrecked off St. Helena,, and he, with
sgyeral others, was rescued and taken to Cape
Town. Here, while engaged in a debauch, he was
arrested and imprisoned, and afterwards hired to
a Dutch farmer, where he worked with Hottentots.
Escaping, he shipped on a trading vessel through
the straits of Madagascar, where be deserted, and
lived for some time among the natives of the
island. Narrowly escaping murder, ne afterwards
put to sea in an open boat, was picked up and
taken to Cape Town, and then to Singapore. For
several years he wandered about in China and Ja
pan, a poor, drunken vagabond; finally landed in
San Francisco in a state of beggary, and made his
way across the continent. His friends heard of
him as a bar tender in a miserable saloon in Eliza
beth, N. J., sick and broken dowp, and took him
home to die, a worn out debauchee, at the age of
thirty-six.
Stores' new trial—the third—for the murder of
Jim Fisk, Jr., will not take place until next Oc
tober. Meanwhile, he is to remain in his elegant,
well carpeted and furnished cell.
