Terrible Freshet. —On Sunday
night and Monday last the people of
this section witnessed the heaviest
rain that has fallen in this locality
for years. The clouds thickened up
on Sunday evening, and in the night,
about twelve o’clock, the rain com
menced and continued to pour iu tor
rents until about three o’clock Mon
day evening. Nearly all the bridges
in the county are completely washed
away, while those that have stood
the storm have been seriously dam
aged. It is thought that it will cost
the county several thousand dollars
to replace and repair bridges. The
waters of Rocky Comfort Creek rose
at a rapid rate, within about six inches
of the high water mark of’6B, and
on Tuesday night about fifty or six
ty feet from each end of the bridge
near town was washed up and car
ried a short distance, lodging against
some trees. The Ogeeohe river was
higher than it has been for several
years. The causeway and bridges
crossing it, on the road from this
place to No. 11, have been somewhat
damaged, though to what extent we
have not yet been able to ascertain.
We believe the rain was pretty gen
eral as there were no up nor down
trains passing No. 11 on Tuesday.
Our farmers are somewhat perplexed
over the prospective damages to their
corn in the ground, and it is feared
that some crops will have to be en
tirely replanted. We are informed
that Mr. M. D. Cason’s mill about
-e’ght miles above Louisvil’e, on Rocky
Comfort, was upset on Monday
night, and it is highly probable that
other mills in the county have met
the same fate. The damages done
by the rain, in this county—yet un
■esti mated—are enormous.

In this issue will be found an arti
cle explaining some facts and. cor
re t ; g some false ttenen'a that
have oeen made through some of the
leading newspapers of the country,
regarding Worcester’s Dictionary.
This Dictionary is being adopted by
many of the leading Colleges and
high schools of the country, and is
fast taking the place of Webster
asthe standard Vocabulary of English
words. In the revised edition of
Webster, which was published in
1867, it has .been so defiled and cor
rupted by Radical revisers, in the
defining of “State,” “Congress,”
“Constitution” and other words, that
many have entirely abandoned the
use of it.
The name of Dr. Noah Webster
is known and honored, not only in
America, but wherever the English !
language is spoken, and it is an out-I
rage to have his works so vitiated as i
that he himself would blush with I
shame, and scorn with indignation
to own them, were he alive.
The certificates before us are proof
conclusive that Worcester’s is the
best pronouncing Dictionary now in
use, being recommended as such by
many of the most eminent Divines
and Professors of the country. See
advertisement of Mess. Brewer &
Tileston in another column.
Girls, Don’t Talk Slang. —Girls,
don’t talk slang! If it is necessary
that any one in the family should do
that, let it be your big brother, though
I would advise him not to adopt
“pigeon English” when there is an
elegant systematized language that
he can just as well use. But don’t
you do it. You can have no idea
how it sounds to ears unused or
averse to it, to hear a young lady,
when she is asked if she will go with
you to some place, answer, “Not
much!” or, if requested to do some
thing which she does not wish, “Cant
see it.”
Not long ago I heard a young miss,
who is educated and accomplished,
in speaking of a man, that she inten
ded to “go for him,” and when her
sister proffered her assistance at some
work, she answered, “Not for Joe!”
Now, young ladies ol unexception
able character and really good edu
cation fall into this habit, thinking
it shows smartness to answer back
in slang phrases; and they soon slip
flippantly from their tongues with a
saucy pertness that is neither lady-like
nor becoming. “I bet” or “you bet”
is well enough among those who are
trading horses or land; but the con
trast is startling and positively shock
ing to hear those words issue from
the lips of a young lady. They seem
at once to surround her with the
rougher associates of men’s daily life,
and bring her down from the pedestal
of purity, whereon she is placed, to
their own coarse level.

DEATH OF CO LOS EL CHARLES FOR
STTH.
At five minutes past nine o’clock
Wednesday night, Colonel Charles
Forsyth, Commercial Editor of this
paper, and son of its Editor-in-cheif,
breathed his last and will no more
forever be seen in his busy work
among us.
This crushing blow to his family
and friends, all the more difficult to
hear with resignation from the sud
denness with which it fell, leaves his
fellow-workers on this paper in no
condition to express their sorrow in
many sentences. To the business,
the social aud the newspaper world
of this section; to his soldiers of the
old Third Alabama, wheresoever they
may be scattered, Col. Chas. Forsyth
was too well known for us to speak
one word of the place he filled and
of the void he has left.
Shocked by the awful suddenness
of the blow that has fallen; sympa
thizing so deeply with the stricken
ones it has left around that death-bed,
we could write no words that would
not seem hollow and empty of any
deeper meaning than the sad and
simple three —He is dead.
Twenty Years Ago. —A gentle
man who went to Calafornia from
Davies county, Missouri, twenty years
ogo, returned recently to visit a mar
ried daughter. He went to her res
idence, and giving a;fictitious name
he began asking his daughter ques
tions about her parents, and as to the
probability of her knowing her father
after so long an absence. “Know
him I” she replied, “why I’d know
him as far off as I could see him.”
She then proceeded to describe him
as he appeared twenty years before,
and grew eloquent in her praises of
the beauty of his jet black hair, state
ly walk, and “his voice,” she added,
“I’ll never forget that; I’ll know
that voice when I hear it in Heaven!”
The gentleman was so overcome with
his emotions that he could sham no
longer, but clasping his daughter in
his arms he proceeded to administer
a shower of kisses, much to the
bewilderment of her husband, who
happened to step into the room just
at that moment. He soon compre
hended the situation, however, as
did also several grandchildren of the
returned Californian, and soon there
was a joyous tune in that household.
The Rev. Mr. Ainslee is the own
er of Tom Paine’s skull. If Gabriel’s
trump were suddenly to sound just
now, and the ghost of Thomas were
to return to readjust itself to his
body, wouldn’t Rev. Mr. Ainslee find
that skull a rather awkard piece of
property to have about the house ?
WORCESTER’S DICTIONARIES
NOT PARTISAN.
Statements have been made in the
“Cincinnati Enquirer” and since cop
ied into other journals and widely cir
culated, of a nature, if allowed to go
uncontradicted, to affect injuriously
the reputation of Worcester’s Diction
aries, published by our house, and
calculated, if believed to be true, to
injure our standing as honorable
publishers. We deem it due, both
to the reputation of the honored dead
and to the interests of his family, not
less than to our own vindication, to
state that these accusations are with
out even the smallest foundation in
truth.
These charges, so far as they have
been brought to our attention, arc
that certain of Worcester’s Dictiona
ries contain definitions of an offen
sively partisan character, and that
the publishers of these Dictionaries
issue different editons with opposite
partisan characteristics, varying in
their definitions, with the design of
catering to political prejudices, North
! or South.
It has been charged that in Wor
cester’s Dictionary “Loco-Foco” is
defined as “distinguishing a member
of the Democratic partythat “Cop
perhead” is defined as “a Northern
sympathizer with the Southern re
bellion;” and that the definition of
Congress has been altered by substi
tuting the word “Nation” for “Re
public,” &o. It has also been charg
ed that “the publishers of Worces
ter’s Dictionaries have special edi
tions for almost all the Southern
States,” anti tiiat the edition adopted
by the school-board of Atlanta, Georg
ia, contain the above and other polit
ical definitions equally objectionable.
It is also charged that the school
board of Atlanta is “a Board of Ed
ucation in the interest of New En
gland carpet-baggers,” &e., &c.
The plain truth is simply this: the
word Copperhead does not occur and
never has existed in any of Worces
ter’s Dictionaries. The word Loco-
Foco cannot be found in any of Wor
cester’s school dictionaries. The
Quarto Dictionary, published in 18-
59, the only one in which it has ev
er existed, dfines it thus: 1. “A lu
cifer match, Brande; 2. A cant
term applied to a member of trie
democratic party in the U. S. It
originated from an incident which
took place in Tammany Hall, in the
city of New York, in 1835. Ham
mond.”
The statement that Worcester’s
Dictionary defines Congress as “The
assembly of Senators and Represen
tatives of the people of a nation, es
pecially of a republic, for the purpose
of enacting laws and considering
matters of national interest, and con
stituting the chieflegislative body of
the nation,” is wholy incorrect.
Such a definition may be found in
Webster’s Quarto Dictionary, isued
in 1864, but has never had an exist
ence in any of Dr. Worcester’s.
The averment that the school-board
of Atlanta is made up of New Eng
land carpet baggers, aud that it adopt
ed Worcester’s Dictionaries on ac
count of these imaginary political
definitions, is quite a mistake. That
Board is composed of Southeni gen
tlemen, all but one of whom are
democrats in politics. Worcester’s
Dictionaries were adopted by a unan
imous vote, and on the recommenda
tion of Mr. Mallon, the accomplished
and scholarly Superintendent of the
public schools of that city, on the
ground of their literary excellence
only.
“We publish but one edition of
any of our school books.” Worces
ter’s Dictionaries, issued by our house
are exactly the same, whether used
iu Savannah, in Atlanta, in Virginia
or in Boston. Whatever other pub
lishers may have done, we have nev
er modified any definitions iu any
dictionary to adapt them to partisan
prejudices, and we challenge any one
to point to a definition m any of
Worcester’s Dictionaries that is just
ly amenable to this charge.
BREWER & TILESTON.
A Detroit man, who had contribu
ted a bundle of his cast-off clothing
for the relief of the victims of the
Minnesota fire, received from one of
the sufferers the follwing note:
“The committy man giv me amungst
other tilings wat he called a
pare ov pants, and ’twould make me
pant sum to ware em. I found
your name and where you live on
one of the pokits, and my wife luffed
so when I shode em to her that I
thot she wood have a conipshun fit.
She wants to no if there lives and
brethes a man who has legs no big
ger than that. She sed if there was
he orte to be taken up for vagrinsy
for having no visible means of sup
port. I oouldent get em on my old

If you hav another pare to spare my
wife would like to get em to hang up

AFTRR THE FUNERAL.
Never any Bore,
Till my broken dream of life
ta (wallowed op in death.
Hball 1 look upon my wife.
I prayed that the might lie.,
But iny prayers euld not save:
For here I am, alone,
And ahe is in th' gravel
It aaema an age to me
Since I saw the coffin there;
The lid wae iff, and 10,
The faca within the equate,—
A pale, bat happy face.—
Sweet lips without breMb s
How beautiful if -leep.
How terrible if Death!
I lifted up the child.
In her little mourning gowu.
But ahe turned away her eye*
Until I put her down.
Tncy took the coffin out
In the blinding light of day;
The black hear*** moved on.
And the coaches orept away f
We stood around the grave
While the hollow prayers were laid
And lha heavy, wet earth
Was shoveled on the dead;
As it s’ruck the coffin-lid
With a dull and dread lu' sound.
It seemed t# strike iny heart,—
Th. y .ed me from the gr mud.
But all is over now.
And it almost soothes my pain
To think, wha'cver comes,
She cannot die again !
The blow has fallen, —I know
The worst that death can give |
The worst of life's to come,
For I must learn to live!
What must I do to live I
I will play my part.—
Ply my auhtle brain.
Forget my stricken heart!
Go again on 'Change,
Buy, and sell, and scheme 1
Fit my ahipa for sea—
Anything but dream!
I know the day will pass,
In the stir and light;
But how can I endure
The coming home at night;!
No watching at the pane.
No meeting at the deor.
No loving wifely kiss—
No Alice any more!
The Cuthbert Appeal has a very
sensible article on State sectionalism,
winding up thus:
“We trust, for the sake of common
justice, there will be an end to objec
tions against appointments, otherwise
proper, upon the ground that the ap
plicant lives in this part of the State;
and that our patriotic and fair-minded
Executive may hereafter, without
complaints, be permitted to select
such rneu for high official stations as,
in his judgement will best promote
the public service; and that the press
and people of all sections will sustain
him in the honest purpose to serve
them.”
