TIE ATLANTA DAILY HEIALD. VOL. 1. ATLANTA, GA., THURSDAY, MAY 8, 1873. NO. 110 The Daily Herald THURSDAY. MAY X1873. The Atlanta Dally and Weekly Herald (oateie more Reading Matter than any acker Paper In Georgia. The Circulation of tke Dally Herald 1* aovr Unsurpassed by that o/any paper in this Section of the State. Twenty-three thousand and one hundred Americans are booked for the Vienna Exposi tion. It will cost them about $1,000 apiece. This will amount to over twenty millions of dollars. Hanged if this Exposition business don’t pay. In the language ot Shakspcare, it is “ an ingot breeding beast.” Mark Twain has written a new book called * ‘ The Gilded Age. ” It will be out in a few days. Ho is assisted in the preparation of the book by Mr. Charles Dudley Warner, who wrote “ Mr Summer in a Garden,” and is at present writing up the “Back-log Studies” in Scribner’s Monthly. He is a writer of rare and delicate humor, and the book promises to be a delightsome volume. “The little paper with & high tone” is still parading its morality—in spots. As long as bright Bill Moore devotes a half column of his very finest language to the description of a nymph du paw, one must believe that it's piety is pumpkin piety. It has just about as much idea for real, hearty morality as Captain Jack has of the Sixth Commandment The truth is the Hxuuld is about the only paper iti Atlanta that is strictly moral. Even the usually proper Sfceotrt is about to imbrne his bauds in a b-e-luddy tale of “te-r-rue love and ven n-juns.” We weep to think of it. It was & melancholy coincidence that Mr. Brooks, of the New York Express, rihonld have died just' as his associates were mov ing into the new establishment which had been fitted up with so much care, and to whose completion he had looked with so much interest and pleasure. The Express alludes feelingly to this in its announcement of his death, saying: The most painful duty of our lives rest upon ns to-day. Just as we are entering our new office, fitted up with every comfort and convenience, the frnits in port of the life-long labors of our deceased partner— in part, also, of Lis own taste, design and study, with a room set apart for him besides our own—full of expectation and hope, intelligence reaches us by telegraph that James Brooks, the senior editor and partner of the Express, member of Congress from the Sixth district, is dead. The event was not unexpected, but the shock is hardly less great than if more sudden, and news to us is most sad and depressing. COLUMBUS. FORTUNE AND MISFORTUNE! BROKER FAILS AND A BAILIFF CROWS RICH! [special to the herald.] Columbus, Ga., May 7, 1873. John King, a prominent banker of this city, made an assignment in this morning's Sun, and suspends business. lie surrenders all assets, real and personal. Charles Ferguson, a constable here, is de clared heir to one-fifth of an Irish estate, sninmingnp about eight millions of dollars. An Augusta man has offered him one hnn- dred and twenty-fire thousand dollars cash for bis claim. Jellaby. A REMOTE FROM BR0W51.0W. As a part of of the history of this degenerate day, we copy a “card” from Parson Brown- low, the infamous old paralysis-fighter of Ten nessee. A more brazen piece of effrontery, a more hardened defense of villainy, was never put in print. We commend it to the atten tion of all who have noticed the several pleas set np by the several “patriotic gents” who went for the back-pay plunder. Knoxville, April 28, 1873. To G.t Editors of the Cincinnati Commercial: The Nashville Banner gives the Cincinnati Commercial as authority for the statement that I “hesitated for some weeks, but finally took the 'back-pay' money, at the same time cursing the poverty, protracted ill ness and big doctor’s bills that forced me to do it.” As I voted every time the question came np in lavor of the much denounced increase of salary, I am surprised to see the statement copied above. I took the increased compen sation cheerfully and without hesitation, not because of poverty, (though I am not rich), but because the increase provided for is just and right in itself. I could hare dodged the vete, as members of both houses of Congress did, and more easily than others, for it was late at night when it was taken, and in the condition of my health I was not ex pected to be in my sent, bnt I preferred be ing on record in favor of it, though I knew there were enough to pass the bill without my vote. I bad two reasons for voting for this bill: First—All my life I have been an advocate of large salaries for public officers, and of competent, honest and orthodox men to fill them. I believe it economy in the State to have such men in office, and to pay them liberal compensation. While I was Governor of this State the Legislature, on my le- commendation, increased the salaries of nearly every important office in She State. At the time the Democracy who were the “ outa ” greatly abased me for it, bnt they have had control of the State Govern ment in all its branches for four years, and in no single instance have they reduced the salary of any officer. X have no doubt that nine-tenths of those who have denounced what they term the “salary steal” would have voted for the increased compensation had they been members of Congress. The denun ciation of it is almost exclusively a species of demagogueism and an attempt to hood-wink the "dear people” for which I have a supreme contempt. The reason for supportin'? the bill was that I considered my services to Tennessee and the country worth ten thousand dollars per annnm. As editor and proprietor of the Knoxville Whig, I had long been accustomed to an income of ten thonsand dollars a year. I felt while an editor that I earned my wages, and think that my labor is worth as mnch as Senator as it was an editor. And now I think that I am doiDg a liberal part by the country in consenting to serve it at the salary of seven thousand five hundred dollars. Very respectfully, W. G. Bbowxlow. Gold in Northern Texas. Montague Correspondence of the Dallas Herald. >?e are having a moat unusual excitement here at present. An old gentleman by the name ot Gilbert, who is well and favorably known on this frontier by moat of the old residents, has been absent for some time past, bat recently made his appearance with fabu lous tales of gold discoveries on the head waters of the Brazos, which he substantiates by showing some very fine specimens and rich quartz roek. The natural consequence is, our citizens have been thrown into a wild state of excitement, and a strong company has just been organized under the captaincy of Colonel W. T. Waybourn (onr popular sheriff), composed of the best material—old miners and frontiersmen—well armed and equipped,, and supplied with all the neces fairy mining tools, etc., and provisions for thirty days. The old man Gilbert will accompany the party as guide, although eighty-five years old, and worn from fatigue and exposure, is busily engaged with his preparations, and is san- v girine that now, in his declining days, he bos tieen successful in realizing that which years of tot! and wandering through the wilds of California and Nevada daring his long stay there failed to secure him—gold! gold ! ItoBBias in Virginia.-—Pertona having possession of public funds seem to be the favorite victims of robbers in Virginia. Recently the treasurer of Page county was relieved of $8,000 in some mysterious way at Culpepper; a United States revenue collector in Stafford was mat by the highwaymen on the road, and required to surrender $1,000; a township collector in Prince George was shot at while riding on the highway, seized and robbed of $1,800, and a collector of land taxes *n Princess Anne was surprised while driving through a lonely road and robbed of $3,700. NEW YOKE. Before the Senate—The Carlists—Stokes to be Hanged—Dead—Oak Ames. New Yobk, May 7,1873. The committee on the transportation route to tne seaboard is before the United States Senate. Fowler k Holcomb, dry-goods dealors, bsvc failed. Liabilities $500,000. Junes E. Hayes, the lessee of the Olympic Theatre, is dying. A letter from Spain says the Carlist army in Na varre numbers 3,500 men, 1,000 being unarmed or armed with picks only. The remainder are armed with superior rifles. Besides these, and in co-opera- tion with them, are twenty-two bands numbering 3,352 men. Orders have been issued by Don Carlos to shoot the Cure of Santa Cruz, owing to his ex cesses and cruelties, but as he confines his operations to the mountains it is not thought likely that either the Carlists or Republicans will cap tare the brigand. The Supreme Court denies a new trial to Stokes. The widow of the iate Major General Wool is dead. Aged 88. Ames is gradually sinking. Only three ot the crew ot the ship Tennyson, which as wrecked on the 23d of February, were saved. They floated eight days on a fragment of the w;eck. New York, May 7,18?J. All the gambling houses within the fifteenth police precinct were closed by the police this evening. The horse shoers of the Second and Fourth avenue roads have joined the strike inaugurated by those of the Sixth and Eighth avenue roads. The Fanners’ Cheap Transportation Convention was organized under the title of the National American Cheap Transportation Association. The conalitution provides for State organizations. Josiab Quincy, of Boston, was elected President. Among the Vice Pres idents are Gov. Smith, of Georgia; Adclbcrt Ames, of Misaisalppi; H. Q. Hall, of Korth Carolina; Colonel Palmer, of South Carolina: Daniel Pratt, of Alabama. The Government bought only half a million of bonds to-day. Chief Juatice Chase left Washington last week for New York and Boston. He expected to remain iu the latter city for four or five weeks, and then return to Washington, and, after a short stay there, go to Colo rado, where he proposed to locate for the summer, with a view to the restoration of his health by the pure and bracing air of that mountainous region. The Chief Justice was in unusual good health and spirits, and continued so during Sunday and Monday. On Tussday morning, before rising, he was stricken with paralysis, and remained unconscious until this mom iog at eleven o’clock, when he peacefully died, sur rounded by his sorrowing relations. Stokes received the news of the decision of tho Su preme Court with indifference, saying to his father, who was present, " My case will now go to the Court ot Appeals.” Justice Strong, of the Supreme Court, has been elected President, and Bishop Johns, ot Virginia, Vice President, of the American Tract Society. WASHINGTON. Washington, May 7, 1873. The Indian Purchasing Commissioners, before ad. journing, ad opted resolutions fully indorsing Grant’s peace policy. The State Department has advices that Minister Orr’s body will be sent home. The Departments will be closed on the day of Chase's funeral. LOUISIANA. Arrival of Metropolitans—Gun Stores Bobbed. New Obleans, May 7,1S73. Forty metropolitans have arrived. Bbasueab Citt, May 7, 1873. No negroes are on the streets. Advices from Martinsville arc threatcuitfg. Several gun stores have been robbed in this city. It is stated that Emery has consented to send a company to protect the metropolitans at St. Martins ville. THE LATEST. Firing was beard this morning. A courier from tho citizens’ camp reports three.metropolitans killed and four wounded in a skirmish. The citizens’ pickets have advanced to within a square of the court house, where Colonol Badger has concentrated his forces. The citizens are collecting from every portion of Atlakapas. Most of the recruits are of the better class, well mounted and generally armed with breech- loading ahot gun*. So far the young men have prin cipally gone to fthe field. The married men in the towns are watching tho negro organizations, and are preparing to frustrate them. The captains of steamboats here have been warned not to transport the Metropolitans, and In consequence did not bring those at the bay, knowing their boats would be blown up. The entire Bayou tech e is under surveillance by well organized bodies of citizens. Keliogg troops can only reach St. Martinsville by fighting their way np the Bay on. It is generally supposed that an engagement took place last night, bnt no report bas been received up to the present hour. Eight Metropolitans arrived this morning, making forty-five whites altogether. Tho citizens refused them all shelter, and they are stopping in a small ne gro cabin filled with negroes. They have orders to go to St. Martinsville, but can get no transportation, as the ferry flat here has been removed to the Tecbe boats near Franklin, and is guarded by citizens. 2TTbe citizens hero are still determined. All quiet* One of the Metropolitans has arrived here from St. Martinsville, who came through the swamp. Ho has verbal dispatches for New Orleans, and says that Badger la hemmed in. He also says that he heard heavy cannonading last night at 3 a.m. A grand turn out will tako place, of the Masons firemen, and religions societies, for the purpose of lay ing the corner stone of the new court house in this place to day. The crowd will be lsrge. The Grand Jury passed a resolution to have Kellogg, and bis officers appear before them on tbo c barge of usurping the Government of Louisiana. Judge Abell ordered the report filed, sud tubpeenoa to bo issued for the parties to appear before the Grand Jury. The Grand Jury also report against the Metropolitan police. 8. P. CHASE.

Hoyt, Fonr West 33d Street His death was caused by a stroke of paralysis, which attacked him at eight o'clock yesterday morning. He was totally uncon scious from the moment of the fatal attack until the hour of his death, and he failed to recognise any of his relatives and friends who were assembled around bis bed side. The Chief Justice arrived here from Washington on Saturday evening and proceeded to the house of Mrs. Hoyt Ho was in good health and spirits and intended visiting Boston after a few weeks residence iu this city and subsequently pro ceed to Colorado, where he would romain during the summer for the benefit of bis health. He was per fectly well until Sunday evening, when he complained slightly, and went to bed early. Ho slept soundly throughout the night and just as he awoke, eight o’clock this morning, was prostrated by a paralytic stroke. Senator Sprague and wife, and Mr. and Mrs. Hoyt were soon at bis bedside. Drs. Perry, Metcalf and Clark were called in, and did all that human science could do to relieve the sufferer, but without svail. Con sciousness never returned. Arrangements for the funeral have not yet been completed. It has keen decided, however, that Dr. Hall will preach the funeral sermon, and Dr. Tyng will officiate. The body lies in the front room, on the second floor, and has not been disturbed since death. There has been many callers, but only a few of the most inti mate friends have been admitted to the apartment where the body lies. All the evening papers oontain obituaries etilcg s’.ic cf the integrity, ability and spotless character of the Chief Justice. It was expected that the United States Court would adjourn to-day in respect to the memory of Chief Justice Chase, bnt as no official notification of his demise had been received, action was deferred. It is rumored around the United States Court build ings that the name of the ex-Jndge and ex-Unlted States District Attorney Edward Pierpont as the probable nomineo of President Grant to fill the vacan cy occasioned by the death of Chief Juatice Chase The flags on the city hall were displayed tc-day at half mast In respect to the memory of the Chief Justice.

When on hi3 deathbed his reason partly re turned, and, discovering his block some dis tance from his couch, he asked that it might be rolled to his bedside, and with his own hand placed the chain once more around his ankle. * Caleb Cushing’s Book.—Mr. Caleb Cush ing’s book on the Treaty of Washington is very sharply criticized in Eogland. The London Morning Post regards the publication as a conclusive proof that Sir Alexander Cockburn “has exposed for the edification of posterity the groundlessness of tho claims of which Mr. Caleb Cushing was the exponent, and that the latter gentleman, as was not un natural, has bitterly resented the Chief Justice’s conduct.” The London Echo, un der the head of “A Yankee Fizzle,” says: “We may compare the 280 pages to the heated language of an excited after-dinner orator. It is a lampoon. But it is a lampoon of the Counsel of the American Government, and there is no knowing that it is not published with the approbation of even greater authori ties than Mr. Caleb Cushing. Sir Alexander Cockburn may, perhaps, feel bound to reply to the charges thrown out at random. A war of recriminations may ensue, and we do not look forward to the struggle with satisf&o tion.” Lisbon, May 7, 1878. Seuora Figucrita and Sardal, together with many Radi cal Conservatives and Monarchical Spanish poli ticians, have arrived in this city from Spain. ENGLAND. London May 7, 1873.

Laburnum was second and Invercsk third. Betting before the start was sixteen to one against the Field Marshal, seven to two against Laburnum and seven to two a gains* Inveresk. A Vienna correspondent of the Daily News, in a let ter to that journal, ridicules the American department of the exhibition, and gives the following as a correct list of articles to be seen in the section assigned to the United States: Two cases Colts’ firearms, three binnacles, one stuffed eagle, two salt cellars,a dentist’s chair, and six bottles of water taken from the Missis sippi river. The explanation of this meagre display is found in the former mismanagement of the American section, and It is confidently hoped now that the new commis sioners and exhibitors have gone actively to work to ropair tho evil effects. That the goods from America will be speedily unpacked and the exhibitions from that country will come up to tbo standard expected. ARKANSAS. Suspended. Little Rock, May 7,1873.

The Court of Pardons, after a long consideration, refuse to commote the sentence of Lueiguanl, Daring a recent cruise of the United States war ship Omaha an instance of true heroism occurred. When on the way to Valparaiso, the ship was startled by tho cry of “man overboard,” and in an instant every sailor was at his post. Those on the poop saw a man boating astern, and tried hard to ent the buoys away. They were fouled from the effect of constant storms. Meanwhile some one jumped overboard and caught the man, and they went aft together. The deck officer immediately hove to, no easy feat in the heavy sea then running, and as soon as pos- ble boats were sent out. The man whd jumped overboard to the rescue was Lieuten ant Seth Ackley, who had caught the man and placed him upon one of the buoys, swim ming himself to another. When the boat arrived, Lieutenant Ackley refused to get on board before the man had been found, but he informed them that he was doubtless fatally injured by his fall. A MEDICINE WHICH PROMOTES THE ACTION the Kidneys and Liver, promotes the digestion, and secures regularity of the Bowels, must secure health and prolong life.

T IIS PLOUGH has had a fair trial In this section, and has proven that it is just tho labor-saving machine that our people want. It has the endorsement of the best planters who have seen it, and tbe LOW PRICE places it in the reach of everybody. Bead the following certificates from planters at home and at a distance : Spalding County, Ga., April 15, 187.1. The undersigned have seen the “Brinley Shaft Plow ” at work for two days, bedding for cotton, working iu corn and cotton, and have worked it ourselves, and we express our entire satisfaction with it iu every way. It makes an elegant bed at every trip, and thoroughly pulverizes the laud at tho same time. After bed ding, we plowed down tho bed on the water furrow—the place for gnano, reversing the bed and covering the goaao at the aame time. In corn planted in six feet rows, ono round cleared the row, and left the land iu splen did order, which would have required five furrows with a single plow, thus saving over one-half the labor, and doing the work equally as well, if not better. Cotton rows from three io three and a half feet, were cleared at ono furrow, which would have required two furrows with any other plow. As a cultivator it surpasses any thing wo ever saw, and for bedding lands after being broken, it cannot bo surpassed, as it does the work of three men and males. We cheerfully give it our fullest endorsement and recommendation, as the greatest la bor-saving agricultural Implement that has ever been on our farms, or in this country. The draft of the plough is as light as a Dixon Sweep on a single stock—a medium mule carrying it with ease. JI. M. GRAY, 8. F. GRAY. U. A. BROOKS, J. T. GRAY. J. M. BROWN, The " Brinley Plough” is adapted splendidly for bedding cotton or corn land, and for the cultivation of field crops. I have made many ploughs, and understand what ploughs tdiou'd do, and unhesitatingly say that the ” Shaft Plow ” will do all that is claimed for it as a cultivator, saving the labor of two men and mcles. JAS. M. BARFIELD. Griffin, Ga., April 8,1873. Mb. A. M. Speights—Dear Sir: We witnessed the working of your “ BRINLEY S SHAFT PLOW,” on the land of 8. B. Burr, this day, and do not hesitate to say that it is good for all claimed for it. It broke and bed ded cotton land aa well. If not better, than one horse and band conld do, making a complete bed at one haul. It is equal to three hands and three mules, and is easily worked by one mule or ono horse. We consider it a great labor-saver, and unhesitatingly recommend it, and will me it oumlvcs as soon as they can be proc ired. S. II. BURR, RI F. JOHNSON. DU. J. H. CONS ALLY. W. F. Roberts, of Grahamville, 8. C., says: “ No other Tnill or Shaft Plough is anj where by the side of Brinley’s. My Foreman has tried It, and says that Brinley's Is worth a doz. u of any other. The negroes are delighted with it.” W. G. Gibbs, Columbia, 8. C., says: “The Shaft Plough has been worked with perfect success and satisfac tion. I am delighted with it.” W. A. Walters, Simpsonville, Ky., says: •• Works admirably—cleans out a row cf corn at one. sweep—easily managed—runs ss steadily as & breaking plough—will do twice the work of a double shovel and do it better.” A. O. Jackson, Greensboro, Ga., says: “ I find yonr Shaft Plow the perfection of coverers for corn and cot ton.” J. H. Nichols, Nacooche, Ga., says: “The Brinley Shaft Plow, for the purpose for which it is designed, ex cels anything I have seen used.” One of his bands says; “I would aa soon plough with this plough as to play.” R. H. George, Simpsonville Ky., says: “ Excels anything I have ever seen—puts the 'round in fine condi tion—can be used from the time the corn is up until it is full grown—more o- : milled than ary other plow.” State, County and Farm Rights for sale by , A.
