READ WHAT THE PRESS SAYS. Among the vast improvements of the present times the change in remedies is not the least rare portrait. Formerly ridiculous and often injurious mixtures were administered upon the recommen dation of one person to another, or from ou- family to another, as being “good” for such and such a complaint, while they were, in fact, use less or worse. Now, Prof, Kayton supplies the talked about the time that A. was killed j most effectual femedies that ed- 111 the shop there. There was a general ; uca ted skill can devise or art can produce, with talk about his. arrest. There was a gen- | explicit directions for their use in each and every .. r i- i .i Ti . ! case.

Answer. Not exactly, sir. Question. Did Whitley ever name any per son to you, and tell you that you should make an accusation against them in regard to the murder of Ashburu? Answer. I don’t think ho did. Question. Didn’t you make the statement to him voluntarily implicating the parties in regard to whom you have testified here ? Answer. I did, sir. He never held out any inducements to me. He talked to me only as a friend. Question. Did he ever advise you, or sug gest to you, to bring an accusation against any particular person ? Answer. No. sir. Question. What did you say when Whitley told you that you had sworn that the Marx s were at the killing ? Answer. I said I could not. identify them, or 1 would not; 'I don’t know which. Questiou. Did you say anything about liis dictating or giving the names, or words to that effect ? Answer. I don’t recollect, sir. A. G. Bennett testified he was in the house with Ashburu the night he was killed, and They were mentioned, but I lect who mentioned them. There were several talking. I suppose these several persons were talking about these dates. (Witness here named the parties) The conversation took place outside on the piazza of this building. I don’t re collect anything being said about any thing else. 1 believe I would have re collected the date even if it had not been so stated. I would recollect it from priv ate business with a gentleman in Colum bus. I am not positive as to which of the two days; I think it was either on Thurs day or Friday. I don’t think the words “Thursday or Friday” were mentioned in the conversation this morning. I have been acquainted with Duke three years. I bad no conversation with him farther than to ask him where he was going. I first remembered that, after the death of Ashburu, when I heard of Duke’s arrest. My attention was not called to the fact named the prisoners as the parties, assisted by by any person. I remembered it myself.* (fon’t recollect that we spoke this morn- 1 1 was coining here until they sent for me. ing about the 26th or 27«h of March, or j 1 have had no conversation with any per- tliat it was mentioned by either of ns.— >on rince my arrival here as to the date ~ don’t recol- ■ A.’s murder.

The prosecution then introduced Amanda Pat terson, the prostitute, a ho was in the house with Ashburu when he was killed. She says she saw Chipley, Kirkscey, Hudson, Barber, Betz and Dukes, hut admits that she was sworn at the Coroner’s inquest, and had testified that she did not know any of them. One or two whites aud a few negroes were sworn. Nothing additional proven. The Court, in deference to the 4th of July, adjourned till Monday. indefatigaldy presided over the late Club oD>the third day of my confinement. Bets was that name in this county, be made permanent President thereof. 2d. We recommend that the other officers of said Club consist of one Vice President from each Militia District of Coweta Counti, a Sec retary and Treasurer, and that the following gentlemen be appointed to fill such offices: VICE PlUJSfDENTS. Gen T A Grace, Town District, Col J E Stillings, 1st “ Col W B Pinson, 2d “ Maj J J McClendon. 3d “ Dr J W Pierce, 4tii Dr C D Smith, 5th “ Col Glen 0 Wynn, “ Col Alford Crawford, 7th “ Capt W U Anderson. ITnrrieane District, Judge Benj Leigh, Panther Creek “ Judge J F Cook, Cedar Creek “ Maj R 0 Moreland, Grantville “ A D Freeman, Treasurer. W A Turner. Secretary. 3d. We further recommend that each Vice President form similar organizations in their respective District, to act with and be consid ered members of the Club; and considering the great importance of the approaching cam paign for the Presidency, the necessity of unity and untiring activity, that all lovers of true liberty be invited to co-operate with this Chib in endeavoring to drive the originators and tools of despotism from authority, and re-establish and preserve inviolate the rights of the States and the Constitution of the Union. After the reading and adoption of this report Col Wright, who was present.,arose and accept ed the position, although he had wished some one else had been selected for the place. He also urged the members to activity and asked their hearty co-operation. It was also Resolved. That every man in the comity who opposed Radicalism was consider ed a member without formal enrollment. The Newnan Herald was requested to pub lish the proceedings of the meeting, and the.

At the same time a lady, pulliug a child in a baby carriage, was passing the Baptist church.

He confesses Lo efforts to betray bia party, aad to tell to outsiders the secrets of the Loyal League, and to other rascality on bis part. The Constitution’s report of what Bennett said in reference to Whitley’s threats, and to Bets being sent to his room, is as follows: “Whit ley said I should stay there till I rotted, unless I made some disclosures This was Said on SIXTH DAY. The Commission met pursuant to ad journment and testimony of previous day was read to the witnesses. I think it was about 6 or 7 o’clock in the morning when I met him. To Mr. Stephens—The Ilarristown road leads to Meriwether bounty There is no other road leading to tl- r t county from that place that I know of. TESTIMONY OF MRS. EMILY DUKE. I have resided in Meriwether county since about last Christmas a year ago. I lived before that in Gerard. That is in Alabama, across the river from Columbus Wm. Duke, the prisoner, is my son. He resided where I live now. He went with me to Columbus for a couple of weeks- but he came back with me when I return ed. He came Lome about the 26th of March last. Mr. Abner came with him. They traveled by buggy. I think it was Thursday, but I would not be positive— it was Thursday or Friday. He only staid all night with us. He went to his brother’s next day. I think be returned home on Sunday. William left home about the last day of April, and got to Columbus the 1st of May. When he was at home he slept in the room 1 did. lie was there Monday and Monday night. It was on the 1st day of May that he went with me to Columbus, We live forty miles from Columbus.

It was close to borhood of the murder by persons who said it was committed on the 30th ol March. I think it was last Thurs day a week ago that Duke was arrested. I don’t remember the day my neighbor was arrested—I did not charge my memo ry with the date of A’s murder. I was in the habit of going frequently to the shop in which he worked. He was at home in the first of March. I don’t know when he left home to go to Colum bus. They pass back and forward fre quently—the family does. I do not know how long he was absent at any one time. I frequently had work done at the shop. He was at home iu February but not in the first of March. 1 don’t recollect how long he was absent at any one time. I don’t recollect whether he was at home all of February or not. When he came home before Ashburn’s murder, he was brought home by Abner. To Mr. Stephens—I was notsubpoenaed; I have not had one yet. I got notice of it from a gentleman who came from here We have talked about the arrest—the neighbors talked about it. I have been in LaGrange last week. I was asked by two gentlemen there about it. TESTIMONY OF J. T. WOODWARD. I am a farmer. I live in Meriwether county. I know William Duke (identifi ed prisoner). I live in Meriwether coun ty. I live about a mile anil half from his father’s house. I saw him on the 27th, 28th, 30th and 31st of March and 1st of April. He was in his father’s house on 27th. It was soon in the even ing. He was at the shop on the 28th.— These were Friday and Saturday. I saw him on Monday, 30th, at his father’s, late in the evening. I saw him at his father’s early on the morning of the 31st March. The house where I saw him is 40 miles from Columbus. I first heard of the murder the 2d day of April, at the 'shop. There was an old gentleman then up there from two or three miles below, who told me about it. I also heard it from a young gentleman who had come from LaGrange. Cross-Examined—I heard first that he was connected with the murder of A. when he was arrested I cannot recollect the day he was arrested, because I was not at home. I think he was arrested on Thursday or Friday ; I won’t be certain ; Thursday I think. I cannot tel! what day of the month that was.
