THURSDAY, MAY 29, 1873. Thk weather for some time past Ims bordered somewhat on the <: torrid qual ity.” If it. don’t “let up” soou, we shall have to call on “Thatcher.” Thk Grand Jury brought a True Dill of “involuntary manslaughter in the commission of an unlawful act,” against Alfred Rkadpy. The Special Jury gave a verdict of not guilty, f • Uisnop Pierce, of the M. K Church South, preached in this place on Mon dny and Tuesday nights last, to large audiences. The venerable Dr. Pierce, father of the Bishop, will preach here Sunday morning uext, at 11 o’clock. Thkre was a remiting officer in town List week to get volunteers for the Moiloc wir. N>ne bit men with bilil heads wanted. Mr. Greenwood, Dr. Whitehead and Mr. Murpuev were enlisted,and were to have started for the JnvaTiads on Saturday last—but, alas, fir their dreams of military glory—the M nine war ended on I'hursday last, and they were notified that there ser vices were not needed. The following gratifying piece of intel ligence we clip from the Savannah jYe/fJ of Tuesday: It is stated that the Augusta Constitu tionalist is to be revived with Salem Dutcher, E-rj . as editor and proprietor. Mr. Dutcher was quite recently connect- i ed witli the editorial staff of the New j York ICorld , and contributed not a lit tie to the editorial brilliancy for which that journal is fain ms. He w.a also editor of the Constitutionalist during the war. Mr. Dutcher is a skillful editor and a vigorous and versatile writer, and will infuse anew life into the Comtitu tionalid. “LADIES MEMORIAL ASSO CIATION."

[From the llawkinsville Dispatch.] Extraordinary Hailstorm in Hawkins . ville. t U heu some of our reed era living at a distance from llawkinsville shall have read our report of the hailstorm that visited this vicinity Thursday last they will draw a long breath and invol ute arily exclaim, “What a story !” Perhaps they will compare it to the story originated by the Dispatch about two' years ago, and discussed by the papers of the State until we are disgust ed whenever the subject is mentioned and which we have resolved never again to allude to for less than twenty-five cents a line. But to the hailstorm. The clouds passed over llawkinsville about Iwo o’clock in tho afternoon of Thursday. When the stones first be gan falling they were of the size of hen eggs, then goose eggs, until they were fully as large as a man’s fist. They cut through the tin roofs in many places on the brick buildings of J, 11. Fate and J. 0. Jelks& Bro. Shingle roofs were battered and tjid shingles split and broken in every part ‘of town. In hundreds of dwellings and business houses the window glasses were com pletely destroyed. We hear it stated that Willcox, Miller & Co’s shops suf fered to the amount of one hundred and seventy-five panes. In some parts of town the window sash were detnolislied. Our sanctum floor was covered with glass after the storm had ceased. The supply of glass in town was exhausted, and new supplies ordered. Twigs aud large branches of trees were beaten off, and the ground strewn with leaves. Horses that were tied snapped their bridles and ran away, so heavily were they pelted, and stock of all kinds suffered. The noise upon the house tops was like the rattle of musketry, ami but few were daring enough to venture from under shelter to gather the large stones. The hail fell continuosly for more than fifteen minutes. After ithad ceased,stone’ measuring from three to five inches in diameter, ami from ten to fifteen inches round from point to point, were thick upon the streets. They were jagged and curiously shopped—resembling every variety of., ruckery and small wheels. From a quarter to three-quar ters of a pound was the usual weight of the largest pieces. One stone weighed fifteen ounces, and wo arc informed one of our citizens gathered twelve that weighed six pounds. No great damage was done to crops, but gardens suffered somewhat. * There is no doubt about many of our citizens becoming badly frightened at the awful scene. Women and children cried and prayed, and men gazed with amazement and apparent consternation. The spectacle was sublime, and those witnessing it could not fail to be im pressed with its awful grandeur. No thing equal to it has ever been known in this part of Georgia. Col. J. Iscariot, and Where He Made His Mistake. —ln appropriating $5,000 to themselves from the treasury our Congressmen did not enlarge the prerogatives of the people’s representa tives. They might have taken more than tbey did. They might have taken Washington’s old breeches from the Patent Office. They might have taken the Washington Monument—but they didn’t. Some people will continue to complain of them, but we are mute from this monent. We apologize, to the whole human race, for everything. As a rash and blinded Sunday school schol ar, we may have spoken disrespectfully of J. Iscariot. The experience of the lust six months sliow3 that Mr. Iscariot may have been a gentleman who was much misunderstood by the people of the period. Some Scribe probably placed the thirty pieces of silver where he thought they would do the most good, and when poor Judas found that he had bought into a lawsuit (Hon. P. Pilate, Chief Justice), ho want and hung him self. That was where he made a mis take. He ought to have sent the money down to the Capernacuna Female Semi nary, and then appealed to the generous confidence of a constituency with whose feelings and interests every throb of his heart beat in unison. The editor of the Galileean 1 elegram would have made a very nice thing of that and the Hon. J. Iscariot would have been ouc of the most prominent candidates at the next clection . —Columbus Journal. May a turkey be said to be a ghost wbcu it’s a gobliu ? An Cavalry Offioer Proposes to End the Modoc War— Was this Fitzl Ugh Lee? One of the happiest incidents con nected with the visit of the Board of Regents of Mount Vernon to that plaoe, lon Wednesday last, was the interview between a young and gallant cx-Con federate cavalry officer, who had won i his first distinction as an Tndinn fighter, j and Miss Nellie Grant. The ex-Don federate, having accidentally met an old friond among the lady visitors, was introduced by her to her daughter, and also, and to his great surprise when he heard her name, to her daughter’s friend, the daughter of the President; | but, being as courteous as ho is bravo, he strove to rcHdcr himself agreeable to his distinguished acquaintance, and by his affability and genial Southern man ners was so successful that in a short time the reserve of new acquaintance ship was worn off, and they were talk ing together as familiarly as if they had known each other for years. On their return lie was particularly attentive, poiuting out to her from the deck of the steamer the several objects of in terest along the banks of the Potomac and narrating the legends attached to them; and as the boat neared this city he expressed his regret at not being able to escort her to her home; saying he would certainly beg that honor were it no that he must meet a near and dear relative, an invalid lady, who was expected to arrive here that evening. Then taking the hand she proffered him as he arose to leave her he said with a smile, “Please bear my regards to the President, and be kind enough to tell him that if lie’ll ouly furnish tho ne cessary rations aud transportation I’ll take a squadron of the Black Horse Cavalry and promise to end the Modoc war and make him a present of Captain Jack, dressed in Gen. Canby’s uni form, within thirty days,’’ and, lifting his hat, bowed himself towards the companion way, down which he disap peared, she having laughingly remark ed as he bade her adieu, “Well, sir, I must say vou are the most impudent mau I ever met.”— Alexandria ( fa.) Gazette. - • - Bradfikld’s Fkmalb Regulator. —We have often read in the newspapers of the grand success of medical compounds put up at the North and elsewhere. Many of those modicines have had their day, and wo hear up more of them. Their proprietors have made fortunes, not so much from tho curative powers and virtuesof their mixtures, as from the notoriety given thorn by advertising, by which people were made to believe all the good that was said of them. A preparation is now beforo the public, which is becoming very popular, and is known as Bralfield’s Female Regulator, put up by L. 11. Bradfield, of Atlanta, (la., at $1.50 nor bottle. Such, is its curative virtues that it has gained wide-spread populari ty ail over the country where it has been made known, and it is being introduced everywhere. We are informed that immense quantities of this medicine are being sold in all sections f the South and Southwest, especially in the city of Now Orleans and in Texas. This much we say in justiee to its proprietor, who is a gentleman of integrity, and who would not engage in the manufacture and sale of a humbug. —La Grange Reporter. B. F.

The crop will prob ably boa very heavy one. The plants are remarkably thrifty, and the princi pal danger seems to be riiat they will grow too rank, so that much will ‘‘lodge” and be injured or destroyed by wet weather about harvest time. It is al together certain now that the export demand for American wheat will be very heavy during the coining year. Far mers. therefore, need entertain no ap prehension of a dull market. Their wheat will bo all wanted at good prices.

THE ATLANTIC AND GULF RAIL ROAD EXTENSION' The Survey of the Proposed Line Near ly Completed. The Thomasville Enterprise, of the 20th, says: “We had the pleasure of meeting yesterday Hon. John Scre ven, President, and Col. 11. 8. Haines, Superintendent of the Atlantio and Gulf Railroad, who visited Thomasville on business connected with their road. A pleasant chat with them informed us that the new survey for the extension of the Atlantic & Gulf Road from Bainbridgo to Pollard is about half completed, and the route found to ho most favorable yet surveyed; making a difference of from twenty to thirty feet average grading per mile less than the former lines. Two remarkable tan gents of about twenty-five miles each also appear on the new rofite, one of them commencing at Rainbridgc and the other at the crossing of the Chatta hoochee, thus giving fifty miles of air line road in the fir'fc fifty-two or fifty three miles surveyed. President Scre ven is all energy and activity in setting on foot this much needed extension, and we hope to seo the whole country sup port him in the great undertaking. It is no small matter to extend a railroad one hundred and seventy miles is this section of the country, and under the present stringency of the money 'mar ket, but if any man in Georgia can do i:, wc believe President Screven can. The people along the liuc, however, should not sij. down, fold their hands and wait for him to open up their lo calities to the world, and make their fbrtunes for them. They should rise up, like a strong man, and put their shoulders to the wheel also.
