We have received a charming letter from a coterie of tea-drinkers in Covington, touching upon the case of Mus Eberhart, which we present below. Scarcely ever, vre guess, was a more diplo matic epistle written; scarcely ever was golden pen dipped by more strategic hands into vialed ink; certainly, never was the subtle aroma of flattery distilled in and tfaronghont a more effective attack upon an nnfortanate Governor: Covinotok, Ga., May 18, 1873. To the Editors or the Herald: Dear 8nt—The execution of Miss Eber hart forms the sole topic of conversation among all classes. The men are gen erally disposed to denounce Gov. Smith as a * * demagogue'' who has made a mistake in playing “a card;'' some say be is a tyrant, who is made such by the force of circum stances. The ladies of this section must have something to say, for when yon editors make such a to-do over a matter of this kind, in which onr sex is concerned, we are ob liged to have onr feelings excited if ws raid the papers which onr husbands bring home. Well, lost night several lady friends were discussing Miss l'.herhart's execution, and out of the five piesent only one was on the Governor’s side. We had the Herald before us, bat after all we were not satisfied. So that we have con cluded to ask yon the following questions, to answer for ns in the next Sunday Herald: 1. Did, or did not, the jury who found Miss Eberhart gnilty petition the Governor for her reprieve ? and did they, or did they not, say in that petition that they had reason to be lieve she was found guilty by a swim state ment made to them, which they afterward be lieved was untrue ? 2. Did not the whole community—min isters, lawyers, doctors, farmers, mer chants and all—implore the Governor to reprieve the poor creature, on the ground that if gnilty she was only an unicilling accom T 3d. Is it a fact that nnless the girl was con victed of her charged crime, the men who arrested her could not get the award offered for her, and was there an award offered sepe- rate from Spann ? If yon will answer these questions, you will oblige five ladies of Covington who as yet have formed No Opinion. “There were five of ns and only one of us took sides with the Governor." What a ter rible extremity for the Governor. Four femi nine tongues, rattling with feminine fierce ness, and all devoted to freighting the air with romances against this much-to-be pitied man, who let “one of onr sex" hang ! Four rosy months all pouting in anger, four pairs of eyes flashing indignation, four pairs of ears drinking in the dainty diatribes, eight pink little fists brandished madly in the air, and eight nervons fingers sighing for a waltz t hroogli the Governor's hair. While we pity the unfortunate “one of ns” who “took aides with the Governor," and weep at her agony in being forced to ait in unaccustomed silence, and only get in one word edgeways in each half hour, and in being smothered, as it were, under four duplicates of herself, we must decline risking anything in her behalf. We are not yet ready to die. We have'nt made our will. We are not strong, anyhow. We won’t answer these questions. There isn't enough money in Georgia to entice ns into this row. We wouldn’t mind taking the place of the man in the circus who pats his head in the lion’s month, and lets the elephant promenade over his body ; bnt as to expressing an opinion on this subject, we must decline. History won’t permit us to answer the questions as our fair correspond ents evidently wish us to answer; and out love of peace won’t permit ns to answer them the other way. Apply to some more har dened sinner than we are, ladies, or same incantions young writer, and you may get the information you desire. We really don’t re member anything about it. Burr and Hadame Jumel. AARON burr's STYLE OF LOVE-MAKING AND OF MAERTING OFF-HAND—AN OBEDIENT WIFE. A New York letter says: Most of yonr readers have noticed the “Madame Jumel case,” which has been in litigation so long in the United States Courts. Bat many of them may not be aware that this Madame Jnmel was at one time the wife of Aaron Burr. She liecame his wife in a very extraordinary way. After his return from Europe in his old age, a disgraced and dreaded man, Madame Jnmel, then perhaps fifty years of age, called at tho oftice on Nassan street, in great style tor those days, with her car riage and liveried servants, to consult him, as the best authority in New York, con cerning her real estate, which was very ex tensive. Burr treated her with courtesy, of which he was a perfect master, and plied to his utmost his arts of compliment and flattery, through which he had snared so many vic tims. Madame Jnmel, according to the cus toms of the times, had been very superficially educated, and was the more easily doped by such a roan as Burr. She was accompanied bv her nephew, in whose interest Barr at once manifested the most lively concern. Tho two were flattered and fascinated. After a few weeks Burr, tbongh then nearly or quite eighty years of age, made a proposal of mar riage to the wealthy widow. He was relnsed. He manifested none of the mortifications of a jilted swain, bnt went on with bis suit as if nothing had happened. Madame Jumel was astonished and bowildrr- ed at such love making. At last ha drove np to her door one fine morning, bringing a cler gyman with him aDd declared that he had efitne to be married. Madame waa directed to prepare herself without any unnecessary delay at the toilet, aad, fairly overborne by mingled courtesies and commands, she at last stood np by the aile of her ancient bean and spoke the lata! words, while every door and window was crowded with the laces of the wondering household servants. Barr tbas became master of an immense amount of property, with a lady thrown in. They started at once on a wedding trip to Hartford, Connecticut Madame was the owner of several shares in a bridge, which wa* then regarded a wonderful investment. The stock wa* in great demand. Barr persuaded her to sell it, and when the proceeds were brought to her she said, with true wifely submission: “Give it to my husband !” The tradition is that Burr staffed the bulky package of bills into his pocket and sewed them in, or got hie wife to. On his return to New York he coolly de posited the money to his own account in the I tank, and soon after invested it in the loooli- ty of his early dreams of treason and conquest, the southwest Of conree the money He disposed of ^WASHINGTON. Washington. Uij 2i, 1873. IL Yermilga, of Mew York city. J. K. Moorehead, of Pittsburg, and Dr. Nicolla, are reported on overtures from tbe different Presbyteries on various subjects, among which was an overture from tbe Prebbytery of Baltimore, requesting the Assembly to affirm the doc trine of the church as to civil magistrates, and the re lation of church and state, and an overture from the Praebytsry of Austin. Tezae, suggesting some action designed to conciliate the Southern church and if pos sible prepare the way to remove at an early day theee two overtures, are considered together, and the com mlttee recommended the adoption of the solemn dec laration in substance as follows: First—The view of this reunion of the two branches of Presbyterian churches in the North, neither of which was responsible for the conduct of the other, end all action before the reunion, touching the South ern Assembly or the Old School Synod of Missouri, is now noil snd void. Second—The Assembly expresses confidence in the soundness of the doctrines and Christian character of these bretht ren, and hopes a more intimate communi cation will tend to remove barriers that time has es tablished between us and them. Third—With regard to civil magistrates snd the re lations of Church and State—the set forth declara tions contained in the Confession of Fsith snd tbe form of government of the Church. Foerth—Recommend the appointment of two com mittees to confer with similar committees from'the General Assembly of the Cnnrch, South, and the Old School Synod of Missouri. The report and recommendations were unanimously adopted. The President appointed the following collectors of customs to-day: Warren Bush at St. Marks, and John Scott at St. Johns, Florida. President Grant has directed that all the Depart ments be dosed on the 30th, when the graves of the soldiers will be decorated. Tbe following dispatch, dated 8an Francisco, May 2oth, and signed by Gen. Schofield, was received by Gen. Sherman to-day: “Davis reports s fight with the Indians on the 10th inst, in which the Indians were whipped snd ran awsy. The mounted troops who started in pursuit have not been heard from since the 14th Inst." The Board of Missions report receipts s trifle un der expenditures, which were ovsr half s million, leav ing the board in debt thirty thousand dollars.

Niw Yokk, May 21.1873. To-morruw the Treasury will sell $1,300,000 in gold, and notice has been given that one-half the amount must be paid for in legal notes. This novel require ment on the part of tbe Treasury has caused a good deal of comment, sad the right of the Secretary to make the demand is not conceded by all. Albany, May 31, 1873. The Baptist anniversary meeting has continued its session to-day at the Missionary Union. A resolution was adopted to increase tbe force to India by sending out ten new missionaries. Collections are to be taken np from all chnrvliea to meet the expenses of that purpose, also for paying the present deficiency of forty-two thousand dollars. A proposition to modify the Constitution of tbe missionary union as to the term of membership was reported against and the report agreed to. The report of the borne mission was read, giving much satisfaction. The receipts in 18C3 for missionary work amounted to thirty thousand dol lars, and for 1873 to one hundred and four thousand six hundred and twelve. The Women’s Baptist Missionary Society met with closed doors, not even their husbands being admitted. It is learned, however, that their receipts for the year are $20,156. The special object of this society is the Christian elevation of women in foreign lands. The 8elma banking honse of T. K. Ferguson A Co. suspended to-day. Liabilities and assets unknown.

Important Law Suit.—Litigation of great importance to persons holding bonds issued by towns and counties in behalf of railroad enterprises is now going forward in tho United States Court for the Western District of Missouri. ■Forty-five different suits have been brought against towns and connties of that State for interest on bonds issued in aid of railroads, which the authorities of these towns and oounties seek to repudiate; and there is but one suit against Johnson county, arising from an issue of $100,000 nor mal school bonds, the legality of which is contested. Thr county of Henry is sned for $204,000 in two suits by A. H. Nicola;, President of the Board of Brokers in this city, and the whole amount involved in the pending litigation will reach nearly two millions of dollars. There are now two suits against Cass county for $355,000, of which $55,000 is a portion of what is known as the bloody bonds, being of the same issue as those which led to the tragedy at Gunn City, where two or three persons were killed by sn armed mob. An interesting qaegtioa to bo determined is whether an innocent holder of bonds is en titled to recover when the circumstances of their issue are such that they would be in valid in the hinds of the original holders. Nearly all the plaintiffs in these cases are per sons living in other State-,, who would couie under the classification of innocent holders, as they bought the bonds in good faith, know- ng nothing af any fraud in their issue, even if such fraud existed.—-V.

JAMES C. AVARY.—" Dr. Avary is very rick,” fell like * death knel! upon every family iu DeKalb county within the range of his practice; for we all knew how severely he had been laboring for weeks be fore, and had for some time been apprehensive of the effect of such incessant work upon his not very strong health. Each day the news of his condition was anx- ionsiy sought after. “How is Dr. Avary?” was re peated on the cars and in the streets, and each day the news grew worse, until the sad Intelligence waa made kuown that our dear friend was dead. We then began to feel how great was onr loss, and every family of the neighborhood mourned as for one of their own nutn* her. Dr. Avary was near to all of us—even our little ones called him “ my doctor,” and when he entered the house, they would climb Into Lis lap and fondle him with tender affection. The earnestness with which ho was requested to prolong his professional visits actually embarrassed him In his practice; for our families were never more pleased thau when they could prevail on him to remain. Is it any wonder, then, that the borrow is so great and universal, as when we realize that we shall no more ace his kind face and receive his attentive ministrations when sick ness afflicts us V We can truly affirm that we have never known a good man called away whose death elicited such sincere and tender regret among all classes, from childhood to age. Dr. Avary was born in Columbia county, the 14th flay of October, 1818, and was consequently fifty-four years, months and days old when he died. He studied medicine iu his native county with Dr. Harrison, and, in the spring of 1841, he commenced a course of lectures at the Augusta Medical College, and graduated in the spring of 1843. Soon after his ma triculation he located at Wrightsboro, where he con tinued the practice of his profession until 1851, except for the short period that he was in the Legislature, during the Mssion of 1849. He was not a politician in any sense of the word, but was nominate! and elected by the unanimous desire and request of his constitu ents, without opponent. His course in the Legisla ture was suck as to stilt further Increase their confi dence, and he was again solicited to become a candi date. but declined, owing to a determination he had formed to remove to Tennessee. He soon afterwards carried out this purpose by removing to Chattanooga, where he remained for two years as a merchant. In 1853 lie moved back to Georgia and settled in DeKalb county, and commenced farming In connection with his practice. He was quite successful, and very soon obtained a very extensive practice. When Mr. Lin coln was elected, and South Carolina had seceded, and the excitement reached Georgia, very soon parties were formed, and the greatest bitterness between Se cessionists and Union men prevailed. Dr. Avary. who was always earnest and decided in his convictions, was fully persuaded that it would be very unwise for Georgia to go out of the Union, and did all in his power to prevent what he regarded as a public calam ity. His counsels, however, did not prevail, and he saw his native State arrayed with South Carolina in a determination to resist the Government with armB. Like a true patriot, he did not hesitate as to his duty, and from the day that this resolve of Georgia was formed until the close of the bitter struggle, there were none more true than he. He was not one to reproach his fellow-citizens for differing with him in opinion, but choerfully gave all ho had to the common cause. When tho war ended, like thousands of others, he found himself with a largo family and nothing but his land. He therefore found it necessary to return to his profession with renewed effort, and removed to Decatur, where he continued to reside until his death. Dr. Avary came of a noble family. His father, Archer Avary, was a native of Virginia, and removed to Georgia when the Doctor was a child, and settled in Columbia county, twoaty miles above Augusta, on the Savannah river. Here he rapidly acquired the confi dence of the people, and represented his District in the Senate for a number of years, and when he died, was still a member of the Senate, having bat a short time before been elected. Archer Avary was a good man, and left to his son the inheritance of a good name, which those who knew Dr. Avary can truly say he never stained; for, in all tbe relations of life, he lived and died without reproach. Asa citizen, he was patriotic and public-spirited, with an integrity of character which he guarded as a pearl above riches or distinction. As a Christian, his long membership of the Methodist Church boars only the memory of love and forbearance. As a Mason, he strived to do good, and governed his conduct by that rule which endeav ors to do to others as we would have them do to us. It is, however, in his private relations as husband and father that his character was so beautiful and gentle. Loving and true as a husband—firm, yet amiable and indulgent as a parent—his loss can only be appreciated by those to whom he sustained those tender relations. If he was so dear to us who only knew him as friend, how much more so to those of his own household. There is a crown for those who die in harness, and surety our friend has gone to receive it—for, to the last moment that he was able to walk, he was at the post of labor and of duty. He is gone; but we trust that the lesson which such a life teaches will not go unheeded, bnt be deeply on* graven on onr hearts, and sanctify our souls to strive that our lives may be like his, and at death that we may leave with characters both honored and regretted.
