His salary is $2,000. The Griffin News says a negro boy by the name ot Jesse Eason was drowned up on Flint river, ou Saturday last, uuder the following dreams.ances: A party went out fishing and this boy with others got into a bateau and were going down the river, when from some cause the boat began to sink,and this boy being unable to swim, was drowned in a few seconds. His body was recovered and buried MBosday. 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 Davis, superceded Johnson in command of the army at Atlanta and left the way open for Sherman’s inarch to the sea.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.
