The Pension Kill
For a number of years an effort
lias been made to secure the pas
sage of u law by Congress, giving
pensions to ihe Mexican soldiers,
those who served sixty days in
any of the Indian wars. Such a
bill passed the House two or three
years ago, but was defeated in the
Senate upon the silly excuse dia'
Jeff Davis would thereby become
a pensonier of the ff oven men t.
A similar bill was introduced at
this session and has been vigorous
ly fought by many Republican
members, who assert that the lar
ger portion of the fund will bodis
tributed in the South. A resolu
tion was offered last Wediusdny,
making this bill the special on er
for Thursday. The Republicans

a quorum.
At eight o’clock next n oming
tlie resolution was adepted and
the members dispersed to get a

A TERRIFIC CYCLONE SWEEPS'I HROUl.it
ALABAMA, GEORGIA AM) SOI TH CAI
OLIVA. —IMMENSE LOSS OF 1 IKE.
One of the most dts rue iv*<
8! ortas tbut has ever visited tjm
Southern States swept through t
abama, Georgia and South Caro
lina last Tuesday. It is estimu
ed that at least $2,000,000 worth
of property was destr*yed, and
that SOO lives were lost, divided
as follows, Alabama 40, Georgi»
pnusu.acU, SVt iKrvr Wt,. lv »_
that Brown’s Iron Bitters brought
them up and gave them n< w lit,
hot bed of storms, the guT, and
swept Northward to the vicinity of
ColumLns Ga, where it divided,
one prong passing close to Mont
gomery Ala., passed on up to
Birmingham; another prong came
up the river and struck Rome,
Cave Springs, Bartow, Cherokee
and Pickens, and anotuer prong
swept across from Columbus, tbro’
the middle of the State and pass
ing out into South Caiolina, it
swept through that State with
fearful velocity. The track of the
cyclone in some places is reported
to have been only a few hundred
yards, while in others it swept,
the earth carrying everything be
fore it for a mile.
These stem to have been the
main currents, and it was in these
that the greatest destruction wav
found. But from ibe main cur
reu s, other cyclones of smaller
force blanched i 11. striking differ
ei.t sectn ns of the country, blow
ing down houses, leveling forests
and destroying life and property.
The elements seem to have been
organized for destruction by wind
in the South as wire the waters in
the RTst two weeks ago.
One of ihcse branches that riew
iJI from the main cm rents struck
the town of Doravilie, biew down
homes and \imbar and then bound
ed to the right of Norcross, s'rik
ing the ground again at Mr. Wil
liam's, then r.sing and again atrik
itig at Mrs. Heads, three miles
below Lawrencevill, again at Mr.
Buchanan's, and leaping seveial
miles it swept the ground a l . V\ il
iiain Tanner’s, and passed on to
apple valley in JackseD, and was
heard of again in Oconee.
It, will be impossible for us in
our limited space to give anything
like a full report of the distruc
tion of this terrible cyclone. The
details would till two papers the
size of the Herald.
The Constitution, with its won
derful facility for gathering l ews,
published dispatches from every
point touched by telegraph, and
the details are heart-rending.—
Min. women and children killed
and horribly mangled, houses
blown entirely away, the very
ground m which they stood vwept
clean, great forests leveled to the
ground, horses, cows, fences, and
furniture crushing through th e
air, while the great fuunel shaped
cloud, black as midnight, charged
with rain, bai. and electricity,
ho unde 1 like a ball over hills and
valleys carrying death and destruc
tion spoil l s wings.
At Leeds, near Birmingham,
Ala., the town was entirely blown
away. Eleven persons were kili
ed and u large number wounded
Among those killed were Mr. John
Pool, who >s a son in law of Mr
Isaac 8 riokland of this county,
bis wife, sen James and daughter
Alice, and a negro named Davis
Cloud win was raised at Buford,
Twenty seven dwelling houses
were utterly demolished at tins
place and twenty live persons bad
ly wounded besides those killed.
