[From the Hartford Courant.]
The recent letter of Mir. Thur
low Weed upon the influence of
Prince Albert in preventing the
recognition of the Southern Con
fedleracy has induced a gentleman
of this city, whose character to all
who know him is a sufficient guar
anty of his statement, to give to
tho Courant a scrap of secret his*
tory of the war, which shows how
a scheme for securing the recogni
tion of the Confederacy was provi
dentially averted. In tho autumn
of 1861 the gentleman in question
was called to Louisville, Kentucky,
oil business. On his arrival there
lie found the city in a state of fever
ish excitement, the Union and dis
union parties being about equal in
c-trength, and an outbreak at any
moment would not have been sur
prising. He stopped at the Galt
House, and he had just entered his
name on the register, when a dis
tinguished look;ng stranger entered
the room, and was immediately
-mrrounded bv a number of gentle
men of tho seccsli persuasion, with
whom he entered into an excited
conversation, On inquiry tho
stranger was found to be Mr. Wil
liam Mure, of Charleston, South
Carolina, British Consul at that
pert. He was an ardent sympathi
zer with secession, and expected
soon to be appointed British Min
ister to the Confederate Govern
ment. lie was fresh from the rebel
capital with the latest news, which
was eagerly absorbed by the listen
ers.
Later in the evening, as the Hart
ford gentleman was smoking his
cigar in Lis office, Mr. Muro enter
ed the room with a friend, and tak
ing seats near him the two com
menced a conversation in .a low tone,
which, however, in their earnest
ness was soon so audible that the
other occupant of the room eo'’ , ‘L
t.T.i 01 ir. rrom what he heard ho
gathered that Mr. Mure had been
closeted with Jeff. Davis and his
cabinet for seveial days, and as a
result carried about his persons
papers which he believed would in
sure tho recognition ef the Con
federacy by the governments of
Great Britaiu and France, togeth
er with bills of exchange represent
ing a large amount of money for
the purchase of arms and munitions
of war. Mr. Mure further staled
that he should leave Louisville on
the following (Sunday) morning
under an assumed naino for Boston
via New York, and that he would
take the Cunard steamer at Boston
for England on the next Wednes
dav.
*
Our informant immediately de
cided that his business in Louis
ville might wait, and that he would
travel with Mr. Muro as far as
Cincinnati, where ho would tako
the train for Washington and lay
the case before Mr. Seward. On
Sunday morning he arose early,
but found that Mr. Mure had start
ed the night before. He imme
diately took the train, and arrived
ot Cincinnati late at night, only to
und that a bridge on the railroad to
Washington had been carried away,
and travel would bo interrupted for
twenty-four hours. He went at
once to the telegraph office and
found that it was closed, it being
njar mid-might. A policeman,
however, came to his assistance,
and brought the operator from an
apothecary shop near by. Inform
ing the latter that he desired to
send a message to Mr. Seward, the
operator replied that he possessed
the government cipher, whereupon
the following message in substance,
was sent:
“To the Secretury of State, Wash
ington, D. C.:
“Mr. William Muro, British
Consul at Charleston, S. C., left
Louisville last night for Boston, via
New York, bearing about his per
son papers from Jefferson Davis
which ho says will insure the re
cognition of the Southern Confed
eracy by the governments of Eng
land aodjiraccp, together with oth
er valuable documents. He sails
from Boston on Wednesday.
“(Signed) B. T. 11 —.”
The name signed was a fictitious
one used for the occasion for pri
vate reasons, the gentleman recall
ing the fact that certain members
of bis family were on terras of inti
mate friendship with the Mure
family, and not desiring to involve
others than himself in the affair.—
Doubting whether Mr. Seward
would notice the dispatch, the gen
tleman started for Boston, via the
New York Central Road, design
ing to have Mr. Muro arrested as
be went on board the steamer, in
case no previous efforts to detain
him were made. In passing through
Syracuse on Tuesday he bought a
morning paper, and, on glancing
through the telegraphic news, ho
saw a dispatch from New York on
Monday to this effect:
“Mr. Muqo, British Consul at
Charleston, was arrested at the
Brevoort House this evening, and
papers of great value were found
concealed about his person. He
was immediately taken to Fort La
fayette.”
Satisfied at the result, the gen
tleman in question returned to his
home. Some two months after
wards he was in Washington,where
he met Mr. Seward socially, and
while in conversation with him in
quired how Mr. Muro happened to
be arrested. The Secretary at
first seemed surprised at what per
haps appeared to be an impertinent
question, but replied politely that
the arrest was made on receipt of a
telegram from Cincinnati from a
Mr. B. T. 11. , that ho had
since endeavored to ascertain who
Mr. 11. was but without success,
and finally inquired, “Do you
know?” Tho gentleman replied
that he was the individual, and
then explained the circumstances
as above recounted. Mr. Seward
grasped him by tho hand and thank
ed him most heartily. To the
query whether the value of the pa
pers had been exaggerated in the
telegram, the Secretary replied:
“Not in the least sir; not in the
least.”
Mr Mure was kept in conflue
leased at tiie request of the British
Government,

.1 <liosllv Sensation Rvploilcri
All newspaper readers in this State
says the Warrenton Clipper, cannot
fail to remember the startling and unac
couutablc manifestations which occurred
at Surrency, on the Macon and Bruns
wick Rail road, a year or two since, and
which were attributed to the agency of
spirits. The house of Mr. Surrcncv
was turned into a perfect pandemonium
for tho time being. Crockery from un
seen sources would Adi into the middle
of rooms, brick-bats would crash down,
and billets of wood be hurled in at tho
windows, seemingly without any human
agency. The wonderful occurrences,
however, finally stopped, and after a
while lived only in the remembrance of
those who had witnessed and heard of
them.
Some time sinco similar manifesta
tions began in the family of a very es
timable lady, Mrs. Russell Johnson, of
Bartow, on the lino of the Central Rail
road. The crockery, brick-bats, and
other portable and small articles, rained
about the house in tho most astonish
ing luanner, causing no little terror to
the inmates. However, Mr. John A.
McMillan, a son-in-law of Mrs. John
son, not being frightened entirely out
of his wits, noted the similarity of the
manifestations to those at Surrency,
and finally remembered that they had
employed in the family as a servant at
the time, a colored girl who had also
been in the employ of Mr. Surrency at
the time those strange freaks of the un
seen agency took place in his house.
Thinking that the two must certainly
have some connection with each other,
a strict watch was kept upon this girl,
and she was finally detected in the*act
o( taking a brick from a concealed posi
tion about her person and hurling it
into the middle of the room.
Here then was the secret. She was
immediately apprehended, and under
fear of being dealt with by law, confess
ed that she was the author of the mis
chief. She was of course discharged.
What has been her motive in all these
actions is perhaps, locked in an impen
etrable mystery, but it will be a relief
to many to know the truth of these sin
gular things which so puzzled the
brains of the good people of Surrency a
year or two since.

[FOR THU HERALD.)
FROM SOCIAL ( IKCU:.
Social Cibi-le, Aug. 16, 1875.
Dear llebai.ij —Leaving your city
on last Saturday we steamed our way
fur this point. On the line of the rail
road cotton "and corn look well, and.
wc are informed, that crops generally
throughout the country, are splendid,
and give promise of an abundant harv
est. At 2 p. m. we arrived at this
place, and found comfortable quarters
under the hospitable roof of a friend,
where we were refreshed both in body
and spirit.
Social Circle is a thriving town of
1,000 or 1,200 inhabitants. It has
some 12 or 15 stores, good churches, a
first-rate school, and as good society as
any town in Georgia. Tho Devil is al
ways sure to look after his interest in
every community, and so he does here.
Whisky shops and billiard saloons—
traps set by his Satanic Majesty for un
wary souls—arc by no means scarce.
Tho announcement that Profs, (so
called) Ilalwiek and Tuttle would give
a free entertainment in their particular
line—rope walking—brought a large
crowd to witness the performance. The
town was alive with negroes, eager for
the show to begin. After the neces
sary delay attending the arranging of
tho ropes, the show began. Tho nu
merous quaint expressions of the agile
Profs, during their feats drew peals of
“ cornfield smiles ” from the delighted
monkeys. The perfume “ Bouquet d’
Afrique,” distilled by the rays of a
scorching sun, was too much for our
olfactories and wo withdrew to seek a
purer atmosphere. We learned, how
ever, that tho entertainment passed off
without any mishap and much to the
delight of tho sable spectators.
On last Sabbath morning we attend
ed service at a Primitive Baptist church
some four miles from this place. Al
though the weather was portentous a
large crowd was in attendance. The
rite of Baptism by immersion was ad
mitted to four candidates for member
ship in the church. After this solemn
service concluded, we repaired to the
church, where a disconnected discourse
was delivered by Rev. . He
dealt out Gospel truth much after the
manner in which the Quack Doctor
does his physic. He seemed to de
pend on the inspiration of the moment,
and whatever thought was uppermost
in his mind found utterance. We were
deeply impressed and edified as you may
imagine. After the sere on the Lord's
. , i.u Dcmg uver.mc peculiar
rite of the Hardshell church—washing
the Saints feet—was conducted in or
der and with tho greatest solemnity.—
As much as this rite is ridiculed, there
can be no question but that it teaches a
most important lesson— Humility. —
These services being concluded, the
congregation was dismissed aad we re
turned to our homes. We leave this
evening for the country. You shall
hear from us again.

The following clipped from tho Con
stitutionalist may be of interest to our
readers.
Ilisnameis Burns, with a J. M.
and a Captain, although where the lat
ter title comes from it is not recorded.
As we would mince meat a fiy to fully
analyze its various members and parts,
so with Captain Burns. Where this
germ of dissention took root we are not
informed. We first find him owning
O
one half the State of Louisiana, a doc
tor, a lawyer, a farmer, afterwards
chief man on a steam “bar,” then cap
tain of a steamboat on the Mississippi,
where ’tis hinted that tho old poker
players used him pretty rough. Tho
Captain took it into his head one stormy
night, when all on board his boat
thougnt the world was coming to an
end, to add a little to his store of shin
ing dollars, so he could probably be
laid under the waves in a gilded shroud,
and then and there he conceived the
remarkable idea that three “queens”
could beat three “kings.” It didn’t
work, however, with tho old veterans,
and the next we hear of Capt. Burns
he is in Paris, Franco, where he discov
ered that a fortune of 13,000,000 of
francs had been left to the Karr family,
of Madison, Ga., by an old French
nobleman, which he has been vainly
striving to transfer to them ever since,
and for once in his life it is more than
probable that his heart will be made
happy by success attending his frantic
efforts. He has filled, according to his
own story, every path in life, from a
cotton dealer (loading vessels) to a for*
ciga emmisary, and from a predestina
tion d.ctrine advocate, to a member of
a quarterly conference and at last,
agreeable to an infallible adage, he has
been entrapped and most woefully bo
wildl by love. For some time past,
it is 1, he has been attorney, guar
dian something of the kind, for a
ladyio shall be nameless for obvious
rcas|,andthe daughter of this lady
had enamored tho Captain as to
ligh' his brain. His presence and
conf, in connection with his fair
chain-, has for some time past great
ly (leased the good citizens of
Waiboro, in Burke county. The
resuras that on Sunday morning last
the fitain landed in this city in a
mosntiable condition, scarcely recog
nizaj, and looking just as if he had
steji out of a prize ring, having
beelorsted in the combat. His ver
sionff how it all came about are so
vare and different that nona of them
can depended on. The most plausi
ble,wever, is that surmised. It is
proble that a relative of the lady was
inceed at the conduct of the Captain
andl, together with some Irionds,
wenfj the house of the Captain and
proqded to pummel him out of tawn
and ley succeeded. The ladies also
leftjkd all are now anxiously awaiting
info|ation from the scene of disaster,
meaime the Captain is bandaged up,
headieck and ears, meditating on the
uncaainty of human nature. He
saysm negroes Ku-Klux id him, aud
that j shot two of them dead, but this
he hi since retracted and affirms now
tint ach would have been the ease

pribbly hear more of this again soon.
WPGACffiIIKXT TRIAL.
Rrjnkviiiiess in the Senate—
II nv Senator Saulsbury was
inahlcil to Give his Vote.
From the Globe Democrat.
flir. Willard Saulsbury was a
Deipcratic Senator from Delaware,
wit! good intentions, but a very
dectled weakness for toddy. He
woild stay sober for months some
tines, but the mere smell of liquor
wctld start him on a spree that
miiht last for weeks. He had
ben quite steady for a long time,
an! had promised to abstain entire
ly from liquor while the impeach
ment trial lasted.
One evening a young rnan called
at his room and desired an inter
view, which was granted. He rep
resented himself as the agent of a
wine and liquor importing house
in NewJYork. who had come to
amended with respect to these arti
cles, and he would like to interest
tho Senator in his cause. He con
cluded his remarks by saying that
he had brought some samples of
wine and brandy with him, and
asking tho Senator’s permission to
send a few bottles|to his room.
Saulsbury immediately saw in
this proposition a plot to get him
drunk, so that ho might be either
absent from the Senate when the
vote on impeachment was taken, or
that, going to the Senate in a state
of intoxication, he might be expell
ed, as had often been threatened in
bis case. Indeed, a resolution for
bis expulsion had once been offered
and was then on the calendar of the
Senate. It looked then, on a close
calculation, as if one vote subtract
ed from the Democratic side would
secure Johnson’s conviction.
Saulsbury ordered tho bogus wine
merchant out of his room in short
order, and immedhtely acquainted
several of his friends with the de
tails of the plot.
It reached Johnson’s ears very
soon. “They can’t beat me any
other way,” said tho Preside nt,
“and they are trying to get the
jury drunk.” It was immediately
resolved by Johnson’s friends to
keep a close watch on Saulsbury,
and this precaution was soon ren
dered necessary. Saulsbury,
whether as the result of a con
spiracy, or in obedience to his own
sweet will, got furiously drunk on
the day rendered memorable in the
history of tho trial by the anti-im
peachment speeches of Fessenden,
Trumbull, and other Republicans.
It was a secret session of tho Sen
ate, but it soon got noised abroad
that Saulsbury was trying to get
the floor to make a drunken speech.
Half an hour later he was persuad
ed to leave the Senate, and he was
accompanied to his room, where he
was put to Led. The vote was ex
pected the next day, and as it was
important to have Saulsbury pres
ent, a consultation was held as to
the best and quickest means of sob
ering him off.
Somebody suggested a big fright
as a good thing for him under the
circumstances. There was a Bab-
cock fire extinguisher in the hall,
which was immediately transferred
to the bedside of the tipsy Senator.
Saulsbury rose on his haunches to
know what the infernal thing was
for, and the agonizing manner in
which he begged f for mercy when
told that it was a stomach pump,
and that it would be applied to him
if he were not duly sober by five in
the morning, will not soon be for
gotten by the few who witnessed it.
From that day forward until the
vote wa3 taken, Saulsbury was sent
to the Senate every day in a hack,
and his movements were carefully
watched so that he was present to
vote against impeachment when the
final vote was taken.
There was a sequel to this. The
anti-impeachers insisted on the
Mosaic law of retaliation —drunk
for drunk—and there was a bad
case of delirium tremens of the oth
er side of the Senate chamber be
fore long, which can even now be
traced in the official record of the
High Court of Impeachment.
Speaking of Gold miniDg the Dahlo
nega “Signal” says: New operations are
soon to be commenced near Neisler’s
ford, on an entire new scheme, for
working the bed of the river, Fifty
thousand dollars is to be expended in
machinery. ’ The work will commence
at once.
Oglethorpe Echo says from all that
we can learn, our grain prospects are
fully as good, if not better than last
year. A good crop of corn, since the
last season, is now assured. Cotton is
still uncertain. Many farmers assert
that the late drouth has caused them a
loss of half that crop, and some con
tend for even more. That this crop is
unpromising none will deny. But
with a fine grain crop assured, we will
continue to “weather the storm.”
