AN IN WELCOME PASSENGER, THE PEDDLER'S STORY. A cold winter's nigl t s> v. ml yen vs since, found a stage load of passengers gathered together around the warm fire of a tavern bar-room in a New England village. Shortly after wo arrived, a ped dler drove up and ordered that his horse should be stabled for the night. After we had eaten supper we repairt .1 to the bar-room, where the conversation flowed freely. Several anecdotes had been r» - kited, and finally the peddler was called on to give us a story, as men of his pro fession are generally full of adventures and anecdotes. He was a short, thick-set man, some where about forty years of lire, and gave evidence of great physical strength. He gave his name as Lemuel Yiimey, and his home was in Dover, N. If. “Well, gentlemen,” he commenced, knocking the ashes from his pipe and putting it into his pocket, “suppose I tell you about the last, thing of any conse quence that happened to me. You see lam now right from the West, and on my way home for winter quarters. It was the early part of last spring, one pleasant evening, that I pulled up in front of the door of a small village tavern in Hancock county, Indiana. I said it was pleasant—l meant warm. I went in j and called for supper, and had my horse taken care of. After I had eaten I sat. down in the bar-room. It began to rain about eight o’clock, and it was very dark ! out of doors. “Now I wanted to be in Jackson next morning, for I expected a load of goods, there for me, which I int» nded to dispose of on my way home. The /noon would rise about midnight, and I knew that if it did not rain I could get along through the mud after that, Ro I asked the land lord if he would r,. that rny horse was Jfcd about, midnight, as I wished to get SOUK .-til - V 1.l 1 did ll'.' t.

He said that lSAid not know him ; he had come that afternoon, and intended to leave the next j day. The host asked me why I wished : to know, and if I was acquainted with 1 him. “I resolved rot to let the landlord into : the secret, but to hurry cm to Jackson, and give information to the Sheriff, and [ perhap/s he might reach the inn before the ] the villiaiu left, for I had no doubt of his identity. “I had an alarm watch, and having set it to give the alarm at one o’clock, I ] went to sleep. I was aroused at the proper time, and dressed myself. When ' I reached the yard I found the clouds’ ffite (Quitman lauiieij. had passed away, and the moon w as shin ing brightly. The hostler was easily • aroused, and by two o’clock I was on the road. The mud was deep, and my horse could not travel very fast. However, on we went, and in the course of half an hour I was clear from the village. At a short distance ahead lay a large tract ot pine forest. The road lay direct through this wood, and, as near as I can remem ber, the distance was twelve miles. Yet the moon was in the cast, and ns the road ran nearly west, I thought I should have light enough. “I had entered the wood and gone half a mile, when my wagon wheels set tled with a bump and jerk into a deep hole. I uttered an exclamation of aston ishment. But this was not all —I heard another exclamation from some source. What could it mean ? I looked quietly around, but could see nothing; yet I knew i the sound I heard was near me. As the ! hind wheels came up I heard something tumble from one side to the other of my wagon, and I could feel the jar occasion ed by the movement. It was simply a man in my cart ! I knew this on the in stant. Os course 1 felt puzzled. At first I imagined that someone had taken this method to obtain a ride. My next idea j wasthatsomebody got there to sleep; but | this passed away as soon as it came, for no man would have broken into a ea.it for that purpose.- And that thought, gen j tlemen, opened my eyes. Who ever \va§ j there had broken in. Mv next thought was of the suspicious individual I had seen at. the tavern. Ho heard me say that my load was all sold out, and of course he supposed that .1 had some mon ey with me. In ‘his he was right, for I ; had over two thousand dollars. I thought i he meant to leave the cart when he sup- I posed 1 had reached a safe place, and I then creep over and shoot me, or knock Ime down. All this passed through my j mind by the time I had got a rod from the hole. | “In a few moments my resolution was formed. My horse was knee deep in mud, j and Icould slip off without noise. So I | drew my pistol, and having twined the I reins about the whip stock, carefully ! slipped down in the mud, and us the cart ! passed on 1 w nt behind and examined I the hasp. The outer door of the cart | lets down, and is fastened by a hasp i which slips over the staple, and is then ; secured by a padlock. The padlock was gone, and the hasp was secured in its 1 place by a bit of pine, so that a slight 1 force from wifcliiu could break it. My wheel wrench stood in a leather bucket ! on the side of the cart, and I quickly i took it out and slipped it in the staple, I the iron handle just sliding down, j “Now I had him! My cart was al i most new, made of a stout frame of white i oak, and made on purpose for hard usage, j I did not believe any ordinary man could ! get out. I got into my cart as noiseli m l lv as I got off, and then urged my horse | on, still keeping my pistol handy. I knew that a distance of half a mile or further I should come to a hard road, ] and so I allowed my horse to pick his | own way through the mud. | “About ten minutes after this I heard ; a motion in the cart, followed by a grind j ing noise, as though some heavy force ! was being applied to the door. 1 said ; nothing, but the idea struck me that, the ; villain might judge where I sat and shoot up through the top of the cart at me; so 1 sat on the foot-board. ! “Os course I knew my unexpected pas senger was a Wiliam, for he must have been awake ever since I started, and in the world but absolute vil lainy would have caused him to remain quiet so long, and then start up in that particular place. The thumping and pushing grew louder, and pretty soon I. heard a human voice. “Let me out of this !” and he yelled pretty loud. “I lifted my head so as to make him think I was in my usual place, and then asked him what he was doing there. “Let me out and 1 will tell you,” he re plied. “Tell me what you are in there for,” I said. “I got in here to sleepon rags,” he an swered. “How did you get in?” I asked. “Let me out, or I’ll shoot you through the head !” “At that moment my horse's feet struck the hard road, and i knew that the rest of the route to Jackson would be good going; the distance was twelve miles. J slipped back on the foot-board and took the whip. In fifteen minutes we cleared the woods, and went at a keen jump, the chap inside yelling to he let cult. Fi nally he stopped, and in a few minutes came the report of a pistol one two——three four- one, right after the other, and I heard the balls whiz over my head. If I had been on my seat, one of these balls, if not two of them, would have [gone through me. I popped my head up and gave a yell, and then said, Oh ! God save me ! I’m a dead man ! Then I made a shuffling noise as though I was falling eff, and finally settled down on the foot-hoard again. I now urged up the mare by giving her an occasional poke with the whip-stock, and she peeled it faster than ever. “The naan called out to me twice more pretty soon after this, and as lie got no reply, he made some tremendous efforts to break the door open, and as this failed him lie made several attempts at the top. But I had no fears of his doing anything there, for the top of the cart is framed with dovetails, and each sleeper bolted to the posts with iron holts. I had it made so I could carry loads there. By and-hy, after all else had failed, he com menced to holler ‘whoa’ to the horse, and kept it up until lie became hoarse. All HERE SHALL THE PRESS THE PEOPLE’S RIGHTS MAINTAIN, UNAWED BY FEAR AND UNBRIBED BY GAIN. QUITMAN, GA., THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 25, 1873. I this time I kept quiet, holding the reins i firmly and kept poking the mare with | the stock. We were not an hour going that dozen miles T hadn’t much fear: ' perhaps I might tell the truth and say 1 | had none, for I had-a good pistol, and more than that, my passenger was safe ; : yet I was glad when l came to the flour I barrel factory that stands at the edge of Jackson village, and in ton minutes more hauled up in front of the tavern, and found a couple of men in the barn clean ing down some horses. “Well old fellow,” said I, as I got down and went to the back of the wagon, "you have had a good ride, haven't you.” "Who are you?” he cried; and he swore as he asked the question. “I tun the man you tried to shoot,” ! was my reply. “Wheream I? Let me out.” “Look here, we’ve come to a safe stop | ping place, and mind! uiy pistol is ready j for you the moment you show yourself, j Now lay quiet.” j “By this time the hostlers had come to | see what was the matter, and I explained | the ease. After this I got one of them I to run and rout the sheriff, and tell him 1 what I believed I’d got for him. The first streaks of light were just coming, and in an hour it would be broad daylight In less than that time the isheriff came, and two men with him. I told him the whole affair in a few words, and then made for the cart. He told the chan in side who he was and if he made the least resistance he’d be a dead man. .1 then slipped the iron wrench out, and as I let the door down, the fellow made a spring. 1 caughhim by the ankle ami lie came down on his face, and the moment 1 saw the chap I recognized him. He Was marched to the lockup, and 1 told the Sheriff I should remain in town all day. “After break fast he came down to tlie tavern and told me that 1 had caught the very bird, and if I would remain until next, morning I should have the reward of two hundred dollars that had been offer ed. “I found my goods ;;!! safe, paid the express agent, for bringing them from Indianapolis and then went, to slow them awry in iny cart. The bullet holes were found in the top of the vehicle ju it. as J expected. Tin y were in a line about, live inches apart, and had I have been where 1 usually sit., two of them must have hit me in the small of the back, and both charges of powder were heavy ones. “I afterwards found a letter in the Dost Office at, Fort: mouth for me, from | the Sheriff of Hancock county, and he] informed me that the fellow who tried to kill and rob me was in prison for life.” TOO BA i t. On Saturday Mr. Join s gave each of his boys twenty-five cents, to lie expend ed as their inclinations might dictate, l ut, at the same time he intimated that it would be well for them to donate the ; money to the cause of foreign missions I on fjiindiiy. The boys, with a pervemity ; hardly to he credited, when we reflect on j the advantages they enjoyed from the] cradle, went to a disreputable shop and j bought one, five cigar sand the other j twenty-five cents wort h of five crackers. ! Sauntering home, the one smoking and the other toying with the fire crackers in his coat-skirt, pocket, they met their kind father on Chancellor square. The smo ker threw away his cigar, which lit on a bench, and the hoy with the fire crackers feeling sure that his father would see right through liis coat,-skirt., sat. down on the j same bench. The father commenced the! kind and instructive remarks which ho | had hastily prepared when he saw his : boys coming, but had not finished when, j without any warning, his son on the bench suddenly became the centre of a j briliant and rapid series of pyrotechnic explosions. The unhappy youth gave j one yell, which in its vigor far surpassed ! the finest vocal efforsts of Captain Jack, I and immediately left his affectionate pa- I rent, disappeared down Bleacher street with the fireworks in progress, and that ! is all we can learn concerning the disap pearance of the boy Jones. What makes the affliction doubly sad for Mr. Jones, is the fact that the lad went eff before the parent had finished the instinctive obser vations he was delivering when the affair occur', and. One of the saddest cases of early de pravity and wickedness on record is that ; of a Boston fourteen year old, who pre- ; sented his papa at the breakfast table, j one morning last, week, with the following j proof of his genius : “i want to tie a Brahmin. On Beacon Hill to dwell; I want to be Brahmin, And give Ben Butler - He said it was his first attempt. He i has been quarantined in a dark room,and ] fed on bread and water ever since. He thinks it will be his last. The colored Republicans of Ohio are I dissatisfied with their share in the hon- \ ors of the party, and have issued a call for a convention, in which they recite j their grievances. They say that, a suffi ciently comprehensive civil right hill does not exist; that they do not receive,as they ; ought, the same treatment as white men from public institutions and common carriers ; the right of voting ought to carry with it the right of being voted for. These and many other things they in tend to discuss at Chilocothee in Novem -■ ....

The probability is, we think, that Georgia has, since 1869, in creased her cotton manufacture in a greater ratio than any other State. Still, there is great need of large in crease, not only in Georgia, but. through out the South. Os the 740 mills report ed above, only 83 are located in the cot ton-growing States, including Virginia and Tennessee. Os these Georgia has one-fourth of the mills and one-third of the number of spindles. Such a showing for the region raising the cotton a re gion favored with abundant water power, and having a large population that would be glad to get work in cotton factories is strange and lamentable. In the matter of consumption of cot ton, the South makes a littlebettershow, for the number of its mills and spindles. While Massachusetts consumes 58 pounds of cotton to the spindle, and Rhode Is land 48, Georgia consumes 155 pounds to the spindle. (These numbers are not. ex act, but rear enough so to show the rein- ] lions.) No doubt the comparative fine-1 ness of the goods manufactured in lie two States named and in Georgia, respec tively, has something to do with this great disproportion in their consumption of cotton per spindle. In the North much calico and other light goods arc manufactured, while at the South the 'manufacture is of a heavier description. But it is not a probable supposition that this difference in the character of the fa brics accounts fully for t.lio difference in the amount of consumption. Wo think it. is lo a considerable, extent due to the superior adaptability of tlm South--in its climate und steadiness of water power i specially to the niiui.lfaeture of cotton, j and that herein lies another great ad van- i tage of which we are not fully availing ourselves. The above facts and figures, added to the working experience of the l.< st. eon- j ducted mills among us, very strongly in- j dii-ate that, cotton can be manufactured more cheaply in our Southern States, where it is raised, than in any part of the world. It is the great enterprise inviting the capital and industry of our people, and promising them a double return in its own profit and the largely increased profit of the cotton culture. Ait Irish National School. A specimen National School in Ireland is thus described : Built of rough stones to the hight of six feet, and surmounted with ash ep roof of thatch old and brown, and interlaced with ivy and moss—there it stood in it.s full proportions, twenty-eight, feet by tweenty, a sample, as 1 have since found, of the average style of school architect ure in Ireland. Here were thirty-six pu pils learning to read, write and cipher— nothing more. The t,-a.elie”, as in almost, all the the national schools, was a male graduate of a training school for teach- ; ors. His salary, thirty shillings a week, | or about 8400 a year, was thought to he j good pay. 'J'bo daily session extended j from ten o’clock until three, when the] Protestant children were dismissed and ' the Catholics detained for a half hour’s in-! structiori in the catechism and articles of I faith of their church. In schools where j the number of Protestants is in excess of i those of the Roman faith, the former are ! retained for n ligicus instruction, and the latter dismissed. Again, there are many ] schools where the respective members i are about equal, and in these religious ] instiunions in each faith is still given on ] alternate days through the week. If the ] teacher is a Protestant, a Catholic curate j comes to give instructions upon the days ] set apart for the children of his parish,! and iff ce verm. The secular is for the! most part good, although not a single ] university graduate can be found in all' the free schools of Ireland. This is due partly to the excellence of the training] schools and partly to the elementary; character of the instruction to he giv-| en. Two Peoria beys filled the : r fond fa- ] tber’s pipe with gunpowder, and just af-' ter the display of fire-works, the old gen- ’ tlemae called up his class in dancing and kept time with the La’.for strap. .1 Terrible Scene in an Insane Asy lum—Fight Hetween Two Lunatics. Wo are informed that on Wednesday an old la<ly of eighty years, living on B - con street, in this city, visited the Insane Asylum, at Taunton, Mass., with her daughter to see her son, who has for some time been confined there for insan - ty from the effects of a wound received during the war. On arriving there the mother was shown into the reception room, when the attendant went out and locked the door. There happened to be in the room at that time a lady who had gone there expecting to secure the release of her husband, but for some reason he could not be discharged on that, day. This was a great, disappointment, to the | wife, but the effect upon the husband when she told him was terrible. He raged and tore round t he room in a perfect fu ry, smashing up a marble-topped table us if it was paper, and commenced oper ations on the clock. This he had got partially if not quite demolished, when the son of the old lady from the city, who had been quiet up to the time, became excited and attacked the infuriated hus band. A rough and tumble light ensued, which must have been frightful to wit ness, and the feelings of those women, shut up in a room with two infuriated, in sane persons, and unable to escape, can hardly be imagined. After a little fight ing, the husband, with a piece of the fur niture he had been demolishing, or with his finger nails, cut or scratched the fore head of the son, making a frightful gash, from which the hlood flowed copious! v, und then catching him by the throat, he choked him till his face turned purple. Doubtless he would have killed him then and there, but the old lady, seeing her son’s danger, w> nt to the rescue, and af ter a severe struggle succeeded in making the husband let go his hold. Fort unate ly the attendant came in, and a stop was put to the proceedings, though it requir ed five men lo secure the disappointed and infuriated husband and put him be yond the power of doing harm.

The novel experiment, instituted by President Grant, of mixing Churches with State in Indian affair t. anddesig nitiugthrough the Inte rior Department, t he various paths to sal vation which the different tribes must pursue, docs not, in all eases work satis factorily. The Osage Indians, who are Fat holies, have been turned over to the ! supervision of Quaker missionaries, and j they arc very much dissatisfied with the I change. A memorial to the President has been pi epa n and and signed by the principal chiefs, in which they suv that they have frequently petitioned the authorities to return to them their Catholic missiona ries, hut, their wish has not, l;een*grati tied. They say the Catholic priests came to auu ng them in 1844, and have al way i been registered as their fathers ; that they would never have signed the treat y of 1865 if it had not been fully un derstood that their Catholic priests were to remain with them, educate their chil dren, and aid. them with advice. Tiny complain that the experience of the four ! years has proved that the religious teach | ors who have bei n forced upon them c«u --i not. command the respectful obedience of the young men and edihlren and say that | the pn sent, officers and missionaries are suspected of socking self-interest and wast j ing their annuities. The memorial closes i with an appeal to the President to give I them back their Catholic instruct ors, promising if this lie done their children shall he scut to school. They think that they have a right to choose their own re ligion and select, their own teachers, as only'their own money is involved in the expense. The Usages have a large edu cational fund. -N. Y. Sun. Sharp Shots at. the Back I'cty Grab bers. The iSf , Louis Democrat, evidently is not an ardent admirer ot the back pay grab and those high and mighty Con gressmen who took advantage of it. It, has these shots at them, to which we cry encore : B'tophen A. Douglas used to take his 88 a day and lie satisfied; but John A. Logon thinks he is underpaid at 87,500 for six months’ service or about 840 a day. Win. H. Seward never grumbled that he was underpaid when he was receiving ] about 8! ,600 a year as Senator. Conk | ling und Fenton voted themselves five t i 111 '•> ; bat much and they are happy. John C. Calhoun was a fire-eater and ] a sec< s.ionhit and all that but. he was nev er me; n enough to steal 85,000 out of | the Treasury in a single haul, as his suc ] cesgors from the Palmetto State have i done. Henry Clay got 88 a day and never j .struck for higher wages. His unworthy i successor, Mr. .Stevenson, gets 840 a day, und is ;'ii firmly convinced of his ow n su i perior worth that he won’t pay back a . little sum of 85,000 which does not, right i Iv belong to him. Daniel Webster made a tolerabiv good j Senator at the rate of 88 per diem, count ’ ing only the actual days spent in Wash ! ington; but Mr. Carpenter, of Wis., ! thinks lie is five times as valuable to the ; country as the Great Expounder was. It is said that the proprietors cf one i of the principal hotels ut a fashionable j summer resort has already cleared over i 840,000 on this season’s business; and ] the season, as everybody knows, has been an exceptionally pool one. When a : landlord can make a respectable compe -1 teney for life on the Eustaces < f less than ' a quarter of a, year, the public can pretty well understand how unmercifully they ere gcuiped in their hotel bills.
