The bona fide circulation of fbr Dully Herald Is mote tnan doabre that of the Our State Exchanges. Rome hasn't had & death from disease in two weeks. Mr. J. A. Bole, of Rome, is erecting a fac tory for making bone phosphate for fertiliz ing. He pays fifty cents per hnndred pounds for bones. The Snmter Republican publishes this item, which is certainly news to us. There is no cholera in Atlanta, and has never been a symptom of it here: “ A gentleman just from Atlanta reports a number of cases of cholera in that city. He says people are leaving the city to escape its nvages. He left himself on that account. The Atlanta papers make no mention of its appearance in that city.” The Columbus Sun says that during the past thirty days rain has fallen twenty-two times. We »re pi pared to from our book*. verify lb!- Halil THE BAILING OF TIIK MUKDKll Kll OF MR. PHILLIPS AND THE VINDICA TION OF A WOMAN’S CHARAC TER. From the Columbus Enquirer we learn that the Dozierville hub and spoke factory is in full operation, turning out a superior quality |of hubs, spokes and felloes. The works are now owned by Mr. S. D. Lynch. &rnor John son Bar. To the Editors or the Herald: 1 have given serious thought to the conduct of Governor Johnson enthe occasion referred to in the heading of this article, and the more I think of it the graver the subject comes to me, and the more reprehensible that gentle man's conduct appears. Indeed, to bo quite candid, a more unseemly or a gu iwer outrage on social propriety we do not leinember ever to have heard of. Here is the case &s it es- sentially occurs, and presents the points for our animadversion in so small a compass that there need be no confusion in our judgment in the premises. A number of influential gen tlemen of Macon seized with an ardent desire to give vent to an intense admiration of Gov ernor Jobnson, invite him to a public dinner. By way of lending interest, and a greater dig nity to this mark of respect, distinguished individuals are invited from the various walks of life and different sections of the State, and —._ — among these invited guests is the Executive of Dozier and Asa ' the State himself. The central figure is, of I course, Governor Johnson, and a toast given The preliminary examination in the case of Mr. Hooper, charged with the murder of Mr. Phillips, is ended, and, as everybody expect ed, the accused has been admitted to bail. A more singular examination we do not re- remember to have read of. The fact of the homicide was almost entirely ignored by the defense, and an earrest effort made to vindi cate the character of a young lady. If the vindication of a woman’s honor was the object of the examination, it was not with out success. But one witness testified to hearing anything improper between the par ties. This man—Allen by name—swoTe that he overheard Hooper and the young girl en gaged in a very indecent conversation, and that, subsequently, on the night of the elec tion. “while policeing together,” he asked Hooper who the girl was, and^Hcoper replied that it was Miss Barnett, and that he bad had a •* bully time" with her. Another witness swore also that he had heard sayiug some thing abont having “a bnlly time'' with the girl, but he had not attached ary improper meaning to it Mach credence cannot be attached to Allen’s testimony, because it is unsupported by any additional evidence, and in the cross- examination, which was nnusnally severe and protracted, he became flustered and con tradicted himself several times. On the other hand a large number of persons testified to the good character of Miss Barnett, and spoke highly of her as a well-behaved, modest and virtuous girl. Altogether, then, the weight j of evidence is in her favor, and unless the prosecution can produce evidence word relia ble than that of Allen, we do not believe that Miss Barnett's character for chastity will be at all injured by the scandal. Hooper’s remark about having “a bully time” with her can only be regarded as a confession of criminality, when taken in connection with Allen's statement of the conversation he swears that he overheard between them. If that story Is trne. then the remark possesses a fearfully immoral significance. II it is false, then there is nothing improper in the re mark excepting that it is slangy and conse quently vnlgar. For onr part, we do not credit Allen's statement as it now stands; hence we do not believe that auything has been said to prove Miss Barnett oilier than a chaste, virtoons girl. This rnnch is due to the young lady whose reputation has been involved, and whose vindi cation every father and brother in the couutry will rejoice in. When, however, we come to consider the killing of Mr. Phillips, this ex amination wears an altogether different as pect. All the evidence bearing directly upon the homicide was introduced by ihe prose cutors. Those of onr patrons who have read the testimony will remember that the evidence for the prosecution showed that Fhillips had written Hooper a note explicitly declaring that he was not the author of the reports then in circulation. If, as it appears, the defense is to be based upon Phillips having circulated a slander against a young lady, why did they not produce evidence to show that he had done so? They did not bring forward a siugle person to swear that Phillips hAd told him the story of.the alleged criminal conduct. Wit ness after witness was examined, and •« stereo typed set of answers were given, all going to vindicate Miss Barnett’s character, and not to justify the killing. If human testimony is wort h anything at all, then the prosecution made ont a case of murder. And yet, in the face of this fact, we find an Alabama Judge admitting the mur derer to bail. Miss Barnett’s character was not legally before the Court. The question simply was whether Hooper l.ad been justi fiable in killing Mr. Phillips. Had the testi mony shown that Phillips had circulated a slander against Miss Barnett, in spite of the gross and nnroanly abuse to which we have been subjected, we would have justified Hoop er; even as we Lave in this article frankly ex pressed the opinion that there lms not been evidence reliable enough to prove the young girl other than pare and virtuons. Bat in not a single instance has any of the witnesses for the defense associated Mr. Phillips with the scandal, while the letter of the murdered man and his declarations previ ous to his death, are eloquent denials of the charge. Is not, then, the taming loose of Hooper a monstrous prostitution of justice, and literally an encouragement of assassina tion? In the interest of law and of civiliza tion, we enter our protest against the action of this Alabama Judge. Mr. Thomas Phill ips is in his bloody grave. His voice is hushed and he cannot tell his story; but the man who killed him, backed by a venal and corropt judiciary, stalks in freedom throagh the streets of Opelika; his cowardly crime magnified into heroism by interested friends and by a wicked, venal and subsidized press. We have written frankly and honestly in this matter because the interest of Alabama is that of the Herald. It will not do for the apologists of assassination to tell us that we have no right to meddle in Alabama affairs. The Herald has more readers in that State than any Opelika paper eDjoys; hence this is as much an Alabama as it is a Georgia paper. Bat if even this was not a fact, we have au interest in the supremacy of law, and in the progress of civilizstion. We, therefore, do not hesitate to declare our conviction that the evidence taken in {the preliminary examina tion proved, if it proved anything at all, that the killing of Mr. Phillips was a most brutal and unjustifiable murder. And as for the de cision which turned him loose, it is a disgrace to Alabama and an outrage upon a law abiding community. We predict, in advance, that the same ras cally influences which have obtained bail lor Mr. Hooper, will finally acquit him when he is tried. And the only consolation that the widow and children of the m ordered man can have, and the only hope that an indignant his time. There should be equity in all things. The Rome Commercial announces the mar riage of Mr. John Aiken Gammon to Miss Rosalind Burns, all of that city. Mr. Gam mon is one of the best young merchants in Rome, and Miss Barns is a handsome and accomplished lady. Happiness, and a plenty of it, would seem to be their future lot The bloude agriculturists will assemble in convention in Athens m August. The Gainesville Eagle publishes this cheer ful item: The morals of our city are unsurpassed. Not a wayward son of Adam having been led out of temptation by our benevolent Mar shals daring the past week. A negro boy in Samter county, abont seven years of Age, ent the throat of a troublesome infant left in his charge. Stewart county, by prescribing has reduced the number of her paupers to two. Home has organized another huge iron company, and purchased the Ronnd Moun tain property from Colonel J. M. Elliott The captal stock amounts to $100,000. Among the stockholders, we notice Chas. J. Jenkins, J. Sibley, W. T. Roberts, H. H. Hickson, W. E. Jackson, J. W. Davies, Augusta, Dr. J. S. Hamilton, E. A. Williams, Athens, S. A. Bil lups, Madison, Hamilton Yancey, M. Dwinell, J. T. Barns, Rome. The company will begin operations at once. A report came here, says the Columbus Sun, by telegragh, that there was a case of cholera in Eufaula. Information was asked. The answer came, “Twelve died here yes terday.” Of course this set everybody and things topsytorvy. People commenced pack ing trunks, etc., in order to getaway from the infection. Asiatic cholera was coming cer tainly and wo is me! were among the exclama tions. Vegetables had a poor sale. The tie- graph came along with another message: □Twelve didn’t die cf cholera, but twelve were baptised in the church last night.” The telegraph is a joker. None so jolly as he. People came back to vegetables, over the scare. A. J. Boland was reported to be the first victim of cholera, but Boland hadn’t Iheard of it. The Central City says: On Friday night last the lightning display in this city was grand, and the accompanying peals of thunder were sublime and terrible. The electricity of the heavens cut its jagged pathway in every direction, and the rain f onred down in torrents. The lightning struck four houses in the city. The north east corner of Mrs. Billingslea’s residence, in the northeast portion of the city, was cleaved asunder, the report stunning Mrs. Alexander, who was in the room struck by lightning. The kitchen, attached to the dwelling of Colonel L. P. D. Warren, also received a thunderbolt. The law office of Messrs. Hines & Hobbs was next visited, the lightning striking the chimney and passing down into the office, knocking a stove and a large num ber of bricks into the center cf the room. A house in the southern portion of the city, occupied by colored people, was also struck. No serious damage was done by these visita tions of the lightning, and no lives lost. Several trees were struck in the suburbs. The Central City also says: |The plantation of Mr. R. H. Hitt is situa ted about seven miles east of Leesburg, in Lee county. Mr. Hitt has had in his employ this year a negro man, named Bennett Drake, and his wife, very refractory and impudent servants. He also had in bis employ a negro boy, who is the son of a iormer wife of Drake, whom Drake and his wife were accustomed to treat in a barbarous and inhuman manner. On the morning of Monday last, June lGth, 1873, Mr. Hitt went to the bouse of Drake, to remonstrate with them for their cruelty to the boy, and to have it stopped. In the conver sation that ensued about the matter, the negro woman was very insulting in her remarks and impudent to the extreme. Mr. Hitt warned her that if she did not cease her impertinence to him he would slap her jaws. While these words were passing, the negro Drake remained in the cabin. The woman repeated her in sulting language, and Mr. Hitt executed his threat. Drake immediately leaped out from his cabin and grasped him by the throat and at tempted to choke him to death. The negro woman then struck him from behind upon the back of the neck with a hoe, while her husband held him by the throat. In the scuf fle that followed, Mr. Hitt got ont his pistol, which was discharged accidentally, hurting no one. This frightened the negroes for the moment, and they tamed loose their intend ed victim. Recovering his pistol, Mr. Hitt proceeded to his house and was followed by Bennett Drake, w ho had armed himself, and was ut tering threats and endeavoring to attack his employer at a disadvantage. Mr. Hitt told him to go back and let him alone. When he reached his own yard, he informed Drake that if he pursued him into his yard he (Hitt) would kill him. Not heeding the injunction, Drake rushed forward through the gate, when Mr. Hitt shot him throagh the heart, causing instant death. It was about seven o’clock in the morning when this desperate character met the fate that many believe be deserved. The Dahlonega Signal hands us this ATLANTA PAPER MlUS.

A citizen of the colored way of hooking | by the committee brings, by its emphatic things, stabbed a fellow citizen in Baldwin | praises, that distinguished gentleman to bis county for robbing a fish trap when it wasn't j teet. The reported speech of Governor John- —■ ^ . - —" ‘ son is extremely commonplace aDd jejune, and has but one market! point in it, and that a savage fling at Governor Smith. It is not a sneer—not a disparaging com parison with other men his predecessors; but twist and turn it as you may, it is so strong an insinuation of bad faith evinced by the Gov ernor of Georgia in his promises to others as amounts to an insult of the most iutolerable character. The leading newspaper of Macon —the Telegraph and Messenger—reports what little of the speech we are allowed to see, and with the most marked and uncalled-for em phasis, prints Governor Johnson’s assault on Governor Smith in glaring italics. Why all this parade over this outburst of malevolent feeling at a dinner party—in the midst of-festivities so promotive and suggest ive of better things and a nobler spirit? Why, of course it was lor a purpose, and that purpose was the humiliation of the gentle man who occupies the highest seat of honor and authority iu the State and who was the invited guest of these gentlemen who com posed that grim assemblage of convivialists. What a lucky thing it was for our Governor that public business of a most momentous and painful character forbade his appearance at that festive board. And a gentleman too from Atlanta, a name quite new to me it is true, but it gives point to this elaborate and costly insult to say that he is from Atlanta, rises to offer a toast, clinching the first taunt of Governor Johnson. This Mr. Kendrick, from Atlanta, must lay his tribute of admira tion at the leet of the Governor, who “never made promises to break themand again does Governor Johnson rise, and in the same vein as at first we suppose, responds. Really, gentlemen, this is quite enough of such hilarity at a public feast and merry making. We think quite as much as Governor John son’s modesty could father, [and a little too much, when we think of the privileges that Governor Smith was entitled to as the invited guest of the Macon bar. It is true that up this way we are near the grain raising portion of the State, and onr rough, untraveled provincialism does not en title us to be considered as authority on matters of social etiquette. But if we had called around one of our tables a number of friends to be made happy for an hour or so by the best cheer we could offer, aud one of that company had gone out of his way, with out cause, petulantly and savagely to insult a frieud who had beeu called to the feast, by all the gods and goddesses, we would to a man have leaped to our feet to protest against the outrage aud to have resented it. But Macon gives a great dinucr, and there is parade, and stateliness,[and sciupulous ob servance of forms, no man thinking cf such brutal vulgarity as puttiug his knile between his teeth, and so forth, and one guest is al lowed to badger aud insult another in that assemblage without the slightest rebuke. Governor Johnson did bad enough, God knows, in abusing bis cccasion as he did, but language fails us when we think of the straight in which the Committee of Invitation was to night, and, in fact, the whole community of Macon, by this wanton and utterly iudeleusi- ble beliaviouriof Governor Johnson atja dinner table, aud on the occasion of a festive meet ing. got up especially in his honor.

K. 8EAGO, Wholesale LEYDEN, Warehouse and Commission Ml THE TEMPERANCE MEN. A UNITED FRIEND RISES TO EXPLAIN—ONLY A LITTLE CIDER AND NOTHING MORE. Griffin, Ga.. June20, 1873. To the Editors of the Herald: Gentlemen: In your issue of the 19th inst., I find the following: “The chief distinction between the two (temperance) orders, as we understand, con sists in this: That whereas the Good Tem plars require a perpetual pledge, and that to a total abstinence from all alcoholic spirits, the United Friends of Temperance exact only a temporary pledge, and except from its op erations the drinking of wine, cider, find light drinks.” Yon do not understand our position, Messrs. Editors, and I beg leave, as Giand Scribe of the order, to put yon right. We have two degrees; the first is taken for as long as one is a member of the order—this is the main body of the order; tbe second degree is taken for life, perpetual, which is given to all we can get to take a life pledge. So we have what the Good Templars have, and the temporary pledge besides. Again, our pledge does not except wine, cider, and light drinks. If it did, we would be Friends of Intemper ance, instead of Temperance. Our pledge prohibits “all alcoholic liquors”—everything that contains the least trace of the demon whose pestilential breath brings woe in all onr land. We prohibit everything that the Good Templars do except sweet cider. That has no alcohol in it, and we do not prohibit it. 1 respectfully submit, iu conclusion, that the “United Friends of Intemperance” is a non-political, non-sectarian. States rights, white mans’ order, born on Southern soil and composed of your friends and neighbors. Treat us kindly and we will cherish and sus tain your excellent enterprise. Truly yours, W. E. H.

Without let ting any of the Faculty or Trustees, or even their particular friends, know how matters stood between them, and believing that each would be attacked, they armed them selves with repeaters, and before the hour for gathering tbe entire number of students together on Wednesday morning, they met in one of the corridors of the College, when a few harried angry words passed between them, and without further warning each drew forth his pistol nod began firing. Tbe two first shots of Mr. U. were knocked aside, (the pis tol snapping at the first draw.) Mr. B. ’s pis tol, which contained but one charge, was dis charged before raising it. At that moment Mr. B., supposing that he had been hit, ex claimed that he had no other charge in bis pistol, and that he believed himself to be shot, whereupon Mr. U. discharged the third bar rel in the air, not desiring to hit him again. Upon examination it was fortunately found that neither had been harmed, nor had any one elae been tonched, although quite a number of young gentlemen were present The question in the Osgood copyright case vs. Luyster, was whether an author loses all right to his own literary compositions by pub lishing them in a periodical without copyright, so as to preclude him from claiming them in collected form afterward, under the Copyright law.
