PERRY, GA., APRIL 20, 1871,
Editorial.—We wrote a perfect
“smasher” in tlie way of an editorial
this week on the Ku-Klux Bill, sup
posing it had passed both houses of
Congress. But the Senate having
made some amendments to the bill c n restored to citizenship, and leave but
The Amnesty Bill.
The House on the 10th., instant,
passed the bill of general amnesty to
•all in the South who have been disfran
chised.
There is a very good prospect soon
that the Senate will pass the bill; if so
it is estimated that from 150,000 to
175,000 persons in the Sou
its passage, it had to return to the
House, and it is now before a confer
ence committee. We might have First, members of the
written another leader, but we haven’t
recovered yet-from the “pi” of last
week.

We cannot see wherein it has been so
modified as to make it less obnoxious
to the constitution, less odious to
freemen everywhere, or less destruct
ive of the rights of the States and lib
ertiea of the people. It takes away all
power from the Governors to judge of
the necesity of calling Federal aid to
suppress disturbance in the States,
and makes the President sole arbiter
in the matter, He can.send the army
into any State he pleases, and bits on

which the. State authorities fail to per

supreme over the liberties ox. the citi
zens for that space of time. Indeed
the bill clothes the President with des-
Fanctes or a St Any;::;; jMA;r.—A Mr.*
Everts, who got lest, amid the moun
tains of California, wandereditbout for
many days; and ,w»sifimdiy.. discovered
when nearly perishing from want of
food, had strange fancies come' over
him towards the last of his wander
ings; which arc thus .described ; He
does not-admit of ilia idea that he was
deprived of liis sound, mind;, but
at the same time fancied that he had
plenty-of company; thought his right
leg was one man, Ins ist'another, his.

blow to the free institutions' under
which we have heretofore lived. The
men who voted down Butler’s bill and
then voted fofthis, have'proved them
selves both knaves and traitors.—
What they indignantly refused to do
at the bidding of Butler, they have
cravenly done under orders from the
Presidential master.
And now we wish to make a predic
tion, Thisliill will pass the .Senate
and receive the approval of the Presi-
' dent. It was designed against the
South,'but will be law for the States.
Its first palpable-violation.—iLuot ac
tual resistance to it, will take place in
a Northern State,, and the South- will

in that consummation, or a civil war.

Oun Repbeseotative in CongeSs,
Mr. Bigby.—Some fijhe . ago we ex
pressed the belief that .Mr. Bigby
would not go with the Radical Repub
licans, but that he would be conserva
tive in his course. We counted the
chicken before it was hatched; , and
John Summerfield. Bigby, a .native
Georgian, lias turned his face upon Ids
people and joined the enemies of.his
State in his . vote upon the Ku-Klux,
bill “ The official vote shows'that, , on
the motion to strike oiit.of the bill the
power to suspend the writ of habeas
corpus at will, JOHN S. BIGBY and
Whiteley woted against striking out
the obnoxious feature. On its pas
sage, the said same BIGBY and lYhile-
ley.yoted in favor of it. . ... ; . .
Now let the people of Georgia, es
pecially of this Congressional District,
remember this vote of Bigby’s to' fas-
temupon his own people an infamous
power in the hands of the President to
deprive the people of .their liberties
whenever he may choose to do so;—

.and lace'frames are good in their.pla-

Hon. Garrett Davis, of- Kentucky,
gives, the following account of the af
fair in the Senate.between himself and

X was making some remarks on the
resolution in relation to. alleged disor-
dei s in the:Southern States, and was
.about to bring them to a close, when!
had made a desperate' fight for her
life. On the hearth, her head among
the ashes,-lay a fair^hairad girL-the
ddestof .jhe.fiock—ahd^on the pallet,,
—where they evidently slept, were
two iitlo boys—one five the other sev
en yems of age. Under the bed of the
.motherj a. fourth child,, of ’ not more
than three, was found. All the chil
dren were cold.and stiff,—and all had
their throats cut from ear to ear, - The
floor, walls, and fnrnitnre were stained
with blood; and. there were indications’
of along struggle before the dismal
Work of the assassin ■ was. consumma
ted. '■ It was finished at last,“the wo
man thrown on her bed- and her chil
dren- disposed of as we have described..
The-murderer it seems did not hinp
self choose to die there. He took the
youngest' born—an infant hardly
year old, and fled away into the dark-
mess. There was blood on the door-
sill—and in tmth every where else with
in,—b'ut a sanguinary train led toward
the northeast. ’ . This, of course; indi
cated the lme ; of Dakin’s flight, and
the pursuers did not go far ere they
found him. He was stone dead,
Hke the rest, and; with the same ghas
tly wound—the razor that had inflict
ed it still, clutched in his right hand.—
Across liis left' arm' lay the little bib J
—-its. throat cut, too—but nestling
close to-its murderer’s-side, as if all un-
.cohsciqus that he who should have
cherished had destroyed it.
, The.New York. Times, Xrhmi which
paper we condense the foregoing facts,
say3 nothing is known positively
the motive impelling to this awful
deed, but. that Dakin was in the habit
of getting drank,'and that he and.and
his wife did not re t on weU togefher.-
