WITH
Letter From Southeast Georgia.
To The Herald d* Georgian:
^inco the storm on the night of
the ‘Jth iust,, wo huvo settled
dry weather and already vegetation
begius to need min. The oorn crop
in this section has been very good
most of it is already housed, aud
hiui there beou double tho aroa
plautod, there would have been
euough to have supplied all tho de
mands of this section. Wo ought to
bo a grateful poople, for thoru is no
part of our eurtM upon which the
gilts of God have beeu so lavishly
showered. But alas, “when Jeshu-
run waxed iut"—aud I fear that as
a nation, our prosperity instead of
humbling us and filling our hearts
with love and gratitude to the Giver
of all good, touds to ongonder pride
aud uubeliuf aud uublushiug irrclig-
iou. I his was true of Israel of old
aud I fear will be our rooord wheu
oui history is written iu the future.
Tho Babylonian, Modo-Persian,
Macedonian and Roman empires,
Nineveh, Troy, Carthage, Palmyra,
Thebus aud Jerusalem, all are bea
cons to wurn us of the rocks ou
which they wore wrecked, or the
whirlpools that ongulfed them, and
teach us that apart from the fa
vor aud protection of tho Almighty,
there is no stability iu the prosper
ity of individuals or nations. But I
have diverged.
The sweet, potato crop hero is
bouutiful aud that is oue article of
produce that this section raises iu
profusion, enough indeed to feed to
their hogs, cows and w rk oxeu. Iu
mi brief eutotuologic description of
this suction I omitted mention ot
an Insect down liero which those
who spoke of it called the “Centi
pede.” I huvo seen the insect sinoc
I wroto to you last, and found it to
be the genuine “scorpion,” not those
red lizards, which live on the trees,
all ovor middle Georgia, and which
are regnrded generally as fatally poi
houous, (but which I believe are per
fectly harmless) but the scorpion
with claws somowhat like those of
a small crawfish, and with slender
tail whioh terminates in a curved
sting, with which it inflicts a really
painful wound, not more dangerous
iiowovor than the sting of a hoe nor
so puinful as that of a yellow jacket,
Theie are few adults raised in this
section that have not had experience
of tho effect of their sting. There
are no centipedes in this region, they
and the tarantula are found in Texas
and Mexico.
An ncourreneo last week at Tra
ders Hill, which I b. liovo to be por-
ioctly authentic, makes something
of a
“SNAKE story.”
A negro man hoard one ol his
hogs squealing and looking out saw
the animal running “his level best”
with a large rattlesuake hung to one
of his ears- The hog tan to the
houso and the owner went out
and killed the snake. The so
lution of this is very simple, without
supposing that the rattlesnakes down
here kill and swallow grown hogs.
It is this, the fangs of the rattle
snake are very much curved, the
point being down. The hog disturb
ed the suake and was struck by
it through the thick cartilage of one
ear. Stang by the bite, the fright
ened animal van to the house so
rapidly that the snake was not able
to withdraw his fangs. I did' not
see the negro, the Itog or the snake,
but have no doubt of the truth of
the story.
I have written all I purposed
wheu I began these sketches. I
have no interest in the country, do
not own a foot of land or other
property, and do not expect to re-
maiu here after December. My ob
ject in writing is, if possible, to at
tract attention to this section. Hun
dreds of thousands of acres of good,
arable laud are lying idle aud can be
bought Very low. The climate is as
mild as that of Florida, the water
better,aud the health of the section as
good as that of middle Georgia, and
not inferior to that of any part of
Florida. What those counties
(Charlton and Camden) need, is cap
ital aud enterprise, with these it
might be made an earthly Eden.—
Since the storm our nights have
been delightfully cool and I hear of
no sickness at all.
I suppose Washington county has
had her share of sickness and 1 sin
cerely hope you aro all improving
in health again. I may write again,
if so, there will be

| Augusta Chronicle.
Wo kuow ho is au incorruptible
and a noble man. Ho commenced
office poor and he is poor to-day.—
We find him now on tho salary of
$5,000 educating fourtocu young
mou. [Applause.] Hero was tho
man who had suffered for tho peo-
plo of Georgia, and wo are culled
upon to desert him now. What a
sight iu Georgia to-day would bo
those 120 men whom he had educa
ted, standing upon the stump cnll-
upon tho people to come up uud
vote for Mr. Stopbous now. iio ap
pealed to good Democrats to sacri
fice all old differences; to sink all
matters of nicroly past party disa
greements aud stand by this grand
old apostlo of liberty. (Groat ap
plause.]
Mr. Tutt appealed to the colored
people. \V hat could they show for
all this Republicanism? W liy was
it that they could not come up and
vote with their white associates?—
All live under tho samo law. All
Republican promises in the past had
proven bitter and ineffectual. Gen.
Gartrell said he was no Republican
—then what claim had he upon
them for his vote? Mr. Tptt allud
ed t<j tho Gideon Colonization
iSchome, in which the trusty slaves
who were to have boon freed by the
will ol Francis Gideon, were put
back into slavery by General Gar
trell. Ho had broken tho Gideon
will and pocketed the legacies left
by their master. Why did ho not
tell you ot this the other night? You
cau find it all iu tho 23d Georgia
Reports.
What has Mr. Htephous done for
colored pertplo? Ho lias bo> u known
to divide his crops and his lauds and
his cattle with them; ho has sot them
up iu life aud now some of them are
better off tbau ho is. Mr. Stephens
hud returned to an old colored wid
ow in Warren a note which her hus
band hud loft because unable to p iy.
Au old gray haired man had risen
up in a meeting in Warrouton the
other day and endorsed this fact.—-
Mr. {Stephens had supported n col
ored man iu Taliaferro county so
that ho could touch a colored school
[ Applause ] Was there not too
much gratitude iu the colored man’s
bosom to go back on such n friend.
Mr. Tutt thon concluded as fol
lows ;
To tiie young Demooraoy of Geor
gia I won d say, I have never kuown
you to falter. Iu tho many conflicts
which wo have waged since the war
and you my fellow-citizens, know
how severe they have been, tho old
flag of democracy has never been
lowered. Often when tho smoke of
reconstruction had settled upon us
anxious eyos and saddened hearts
had gone down iu defeat; but wliou
tho lines hud advanced into the sun
light of victory tlioso eyes beheld
the old flag of Democracy still wav
ing a glorious defiauco. Old men,
wo do not mean to disparage your
efforts. Give us tlm oucouragiug
whoop, and mould bullets for us to
uso in tho tight. Colored men, we
don’t ask you to fight, but supply us
with rations while we fight the bat
tles of Democracy. All hands to
tho machiue. L t the old Roller
Chair be pushod to victory. “Let
her roll, boys, lot her roll.” “Lot
her roll" from the mountains to the
soa-board. “Let her roll" over dis
appointed aspirants. “Let her roll”
ovor disgruutled Independents. “Let
her roll” till tho Old Roller Chuir
shall assume the proportions of Eli
jab’s chariot with its coursers of fire,
so that Virginia, North Carolina,
South Carolina, uud all of our sis
ters now in political tbralldom may
hear tho creaking thereof, and shall
look up. with joy and gladness and
exclaim in a fcrnnsport of rapture
like Joash, the King of Israel, “Oh!
my Father, my Fathor, tho chariot
of Israel aud the horsemen.thereof.”
[Great applause nnd long continued
cheering.J
At the conclusion of Mr Tutt’s le-
marks loud calls were made for Hon.
J. C. C. Black. That gentleman
was besieged ut the rostrum and
made a few ringing remurks. He
stated that at some future time ho
hoped to be ablo to say something
upon these great issues before the
people. He would always be glad
to contribute his aid to the cause of
Democracy, and to advance the ban
ner in Richmond county into com
plete and glorious victory. Ho hop
ed that the Democracy would rally
to their principles and smite their
enemies, lnp uud f hit’ll with irretriev
able defeat.
Major Black’s remarks were deliv

Dear Sir—Having boon apprise I
Richmond (Va.) State.
When tho war broke out Mrs
Lincoln bad two brothers, Dr. Tudd
and Sam Todd, residing iu Now Or
leans and in busmens there. Dr
Todd was early appointed a surgeon
in the (Joufodor tie army, ami, wo
believe, eauio to Virginia. Young
tium Todd was a gay uud happy
through the public press that you ! y*»«th, not over thirty yoais of age,
of good social stiuidiug aud pleasiug
address handsome iu person, very
popular and iu every respect a man
ly f How. He was of course known
as the brother-in-law of liie Presi
dent, or Old \bo as ho was general
ly called; but being un ardent (South
erner that did not affect ids relations
with his friends. In Match, 18(52,
when Beauregard was appointed to
tho West and sent out to stay the
progress of the Federal army under
Grant aud Sherman through Ken
tucky aud Tennessee, ho made a call
upou Louisiana, his nutivo State, to
cuino to his aid. This was prompt
ly rospondod to by several thousand
young men of New Orluuus, of ull
grades of society, who eagerly vol
unteered, uud among the number
was young Sam Todd. He enrolled
in the Crescent Regiment. A mouth
a ter enrolling tho grout battle of
Shiloh was fought. On tho day bo
fore the battle the wriL r uud oth
ers gave a dinner to some half doz
en of their personal friends of the
Crescent Regiment, Washington Ar
tillery, Seventh Texas, etc., and Sam
Todd was ouo of the favorite guests.
Jovial Sam Todd! Who that know
him cau ever forget him? All soul,
all fun, and alt tiro, too! They sop
aruted for tho march, aud the next
day wore all iu the midst of battle
by sum iso. Tho first day wont iner-
i ily enough for our side. It was a
delightful gamo of base ball, and
though the battle wai tierce, despor.
ate and hotly conto ted, when night
eauio wo bud scored a great victory.
That night was a fearful one, and
wo slept on the field iu the most
drenching rain storm that was ovor
experienced, accompanied by some
of tbe very loudoBt thunder, which
could ouly be distinguished from the
our of columbiuds, tired at intervals
on the guuboats, by tho fact that
the first was liu> inlo-s, but the lattei
being loaded their shrieking shell
and rolling hot caused our fellows
often to cliaugo the log selected foi
their pillows.
Betimes on the morning of tho 7tli
we wero nil up aud in Hue, but rest
ed for a while to co >k breakfast be
fore advnnciug. While engaged
ovor u pot of boiliug potatoes, while
somebody else was preparing coffee,
surrounded by many of tho staff and
tho correspondents of Beauregard’s
army proper, the Louisiana nnd
Texas mou, a young fellow in the
uniform of tho Cresoouts unmo u;
and expressed a desire for one of
them murphys when they were done.
Turmug and recognizing our friend
Todd, wo grasped his hand uud cou
gratuiiuod him upou his good for
tune iu the fight, for although the
Crescents wore iu reserve they had
yot participated largely iu tuo bnt-
th, and it was the leading regiment
iuthecipture of Prentiss und his
men, its colonel, Marshal J. Smith,
receiving his sword; but tho next
uiomout a number of round shot
came plunging over the fi Id in
which we were assembled, ono of
which overturned our pot uud the
order was to fall itf at once. It was
the new troops of liuel and Nelson,
and we were at onco hotly engaged.
Sam Todd’s regiment was thrown
promptly to tho front, soon followed
by ours, when almost the first ob
ject that met us as we pussod over
tho field was tho lifeless body of
poor Sam, Mrs'. Lincoln’s brother,
with a bullet hole in his forehead
Driven back, and still back, our dead
were left ou the disastrous field for

Hon. II. D. D. Twiggs,Augusta, Ga.:
Dear S4r—Your letter of Septem
ber ‘2d, informing mo that y» u had
formally announced youruod as an
Independent Democratic candidate
for Congress to represent tho Eighth
Congressional District, was received
during my absence from home on
professional business; iu codho-
quunce of which I have been dcuieo
the opportunity of an earlier reply.
In your lottor yon furnished mo a
list or your appointments, and invit-
od me as the Doniocrutio nominee
f r Congress, to a joint, discussion,
upon the issues involved in tho can
vass. * * * * wo || (l8 such
others as are iuvolvod iu ourrospec
tive candidacies.”
If you arc a Democrat, as you
claim 11 bo in your letter, there can
be no differences between us us to
Democratic principles und no polit-
call “i-sues arc involved in the can
vuss,” and it occurs to me, with all
due respect, as I am the nominee of
a most harmonious Convention of
the Democracy of tho Eighth Con
gressional District, that your truo
position as a Democrat, in this cam
paign, should bo one, not of antago
nism to me as the representative of
that party, nor in coalition with the
enemies of that party, but shoulder
to shouldor with tho othor Demo
crats of the District, especially with
the distinguished gentlemen whose
names were before that Convention
and who are now tho loyal uud pat
riotie supp -rters of its nominee.
While uiy candidacy has boon thus
endorsed by a Convention of the
people, it cunuot be denied that you
are a mere self constituted candi
date; that you represent no party, no
set of principles, und are responsi
bio to nobody for your political con
duct.
This being true your invitation to
a joint discussiou, if uccepted, would
resolve itself into a purely personal
nature. Modesty forbids this on
my part, since I am not euough in
love with myself to discuss my own
merits
Permit me, in conclusion, whilst
declining your invitation, to say thut
as the Democratic nominee, with an
abiding faith in the principles of
that parly, if thero were a reputable
Republican candidate opposing me,
it would not only give me pleasure,
but groat delight to meet him on the
hustings, at such times und pluoes
as might be designated, for the pur
pose of joint debate.
Respectfully,
Seaborn Reese.
