TIE ATLANTA DAILY EEEALD.
VOL. II—NO. 4.
ATLANTA, GA.. TUESDAY, AUGUST 20, 1873.
WHOLE NO. 312
The Daily Herald.
Since writing the editorial on the subject
of the cotton crop our representative in Macon
has sent us a report of terrible ravages by the
caterpillars in Southwest Georgia. We are
inclined to believe these reports exaggerated,
but shall to-day obtain the facts by tele
graph and thu Settle the question.
A primtc dispatch frsm the Associated
says that owing to trouble on con-
" nee ting land lines, cable dispatches had not
been received up to ten o’clock last night.
Should they have arrived after that hour,
they will be published in the last edition of
this morning’s Herald.
We understand that the coming municipal
canvass is already engaging the attention of
the politician ? and that some neat wires are
being laid, /or the present we content our
selves with qaietly observing the manoeuvring
of the rival aspirants; but in a few days we
shall give a resume of the situation, includ
ing the hopes, fears and chances of all the
parties concerned.
Oua representative in Macon telegraphs
that it was announced at oar Bureau there on
yesterday the Herald would be sued for libel,
because of the error in telation to Mrs. Pike.
Very well. If there are any lawyers in Ma-
coo idiotic enough to suppose that they can
make a fee out of us by threatening a libel
eoit, let them try their game. Nothing is
easier than for us to prove that the error was
utterly without purpose or malice. We have
already 3aid everything iu reparation that we
propose to say. Now let these legal gentle
men go ahead with their libel soit. All the
money they can get out of us they are very
welcome to. We doubt if either Pease or
Thompson would credit them for a dinner if
ultimate payment depended upon damages
obtained.
BATTLE WITH INDIANS.

THE INDIANS WELL
SUPPLIED WITH
ARMS.
Mum>ix Shell River, August 19,
via Fort Benton, Montana, August 23. 1873.
The abundant preparations which the Yellowstone
Expedition made for the reception of the Indiana have
been fuliy justified. On August the fourth
OEN. CUSTER WITH BLOODY K>IFK
end a squadron of cavalr3 ,had been detailed by General
9tanley to go on several miles in advance of the wag-
ona and look up the road. Having gone about ten
mile« ahead they halted, and picketed their horeos in
the wood* by a river, to wait for the train. Two hours
afterwards six Iudiaus appeared on the plain and made
demonstrations towards the camp. A dismounted
line of skirmishers wi re thrown out and the horses
saddled.
THE INDIANS WKLE EASILY DRIVEN OFF.
L eft proved the decoy of a large party in the neighbor
ing wood waiting la ambush for the cavalry. Find
ing that the ruse failed, the Indiana, to the number of
three hundred, boldly rode out and advanced on the
grove occupied by our cavalry. General Custer had
only one squadron of men under hia command. Cap
tain Moylen and his men again dismounted and formed
a skirmish 1 ne. The soldiers also dismounted and
formed a hoe in a semi-circle around the cavalry, who
bad the river at their backs.
RAPID riRINQ WAS KEPT UP
at a distance of 400 yards. General Custer deferred
charging, hoping the main command wculd soon come
up and assist in capturing the Indians. After a three
bourn’ fight hia ammunition gave out. lie then
charged the Indiana, who, pr. cipitately, fled, dropping
many of their equipments. After retreating several
miles they took to the bad lands. One man slightly
wounded in the arm, and one Horse wounded, formed
the extent of Custer's loss. While the fight was goiDg
on several Indians left the party

from the twin. Coning up with Dr. Houalnger, vst-
crinary surgeon, and Mr. Bollarin, cavalry sutler, who
were loss than a mile from the column, they killed
them and took their clothes and valuables. Private
John Ball, of the cavalry, while out hunting, met a
MSMlar fate. In this fight

take and punish the Indians, Gen. Caster left on the
night of the Stb, and on the morning of the 10th of
August^st daylight,
WAR ATTACKED
Ly about eight hundred Indiana, who came down to
the river and fired on his camps. The firing was re
turned for two or three hoars; both parties using
trees as cover. A party of three hundred Indian;
then crossed the river above aud below tbe camp en-
d» snoring to gain the bluffs on tbe river. The men
dismounted and posted on tbe bluffs received them
bravely. The Indiana beyond tbe ridges kept up a
galling fire until Canter ordered a charge. The men
then mounted and pursued them hotly for eight miles,
lust at this time the train cams up and opened on the
Indians across the river with artillery.
A FEW SHOTS DISPERSED THEM,
■»**< ended the fight. This battle, which took plac^
wtibiff two miles of the Big Horn, was a fierce one*
Gen. Custer and Adjutant Kstcham had their horses
shot from under them. Lieutenant Lradden was
bully shot in the thigh. Private Trettle, Gen. Custer’s
orderly, wss killed and twenty soldiers slightly
wounded. Four horses were killed and three wounded.
The Indian’s loss is estimated by Gen. Caster at forty
killed and wounded.

OBITUARY.
Thomas A. K. Nelson.
A dispatch from Knoxville, Tennessee, reports that
Judge Thomas A. R. Nelson, of thst city, died at his
resident* there on Sunday morning, at six o’clock, of
cholera, after an illness of two day a. Judge
Nelson was for many years one of
the moat prominent and influential men
of East Tennessee, and was known as the “Eagle
Orator." He opposed the war for Southern Independ
ence, but nevertheless sorved iu the Confederate Con
gress. He was. however, always a Union man and
was always looked upou with disfavor in the South.
We believe that he opposed the vindictive policy of
Brownlow and used his influence in favor of the re-
enfranchisement of the whites of Tennessee, and the
restoration of amicable feelings among the people.
He was a man of ability and of high personal char
acter.
Rev- John Todd.
A tele-ram from Pittsfield, Massachusetts, states
thst Kev. John Todd, the pastor of the First Congre -
gational Church, of that city, fell dead on yesterday.
He was well advanced in years, being aged seventy-
three.
Benjamin Young.
Benj. Young, actor, and a web known delineator of
negro characters, particularly in role the of Uncle Tom
died suddenly in Philadelphia yesterday.
Frederick Lord.
A Cincinnati dispatch reports the death of Mr.
Federick Lord, a well known and prominent railroad

Memphis August 24,1»7J.
The steamer Julia arrived here shout eleven o’clock
to-day, bringing most of the survivors of the ill fated
steamer George W'olf. Among thorn was Captaiu Henry
8. Carter, her commander, who was considerably
bruised abont the head, aud had bis left leg a so badly
bruised. Captain Carter states that a short time be
fore
THE EXPLOSION
he had gone to his room to take a uaj, leaving the
mate on watch, and the first he knew of :hc accident
was that he felt himself lifted into the sir with a se
vere shock and fell with the debris on the lower deck.
As soon as he could extricate himself, he &kuced
around and saw that tho forward part of the cabin and
tbe texas
HAD BEEN BLOWN AWAY,
aft to the boilers and that some of the tiuibra had
taken fire, His first thought was to extinguish the
flames, which with the aid of others and a lit&vy rain
which was falling at the time, he soon succeeded in
doing. One of the crew who Lad been slightly injured
seeing that the wreck had drifted near shore, jumped
out with the head line|aud m *de her fast, when it was
found that the boat had been but little injured except
as already stated. As soon as the fire was extinguished
everything possible was done to relieve the suffo ,rs.
The Captain states she had only ten or twelve cabin
passengers, only one of whom was lost—Mr. Nelson,
a piano tuner, from New York, aged about sixty years.
Owing to the condition of Widen, the clerk, who was
- SEVERELY BURNED,
about the chest and throat, it was impossible to
obtain a list of the passengers from him, as the
books were, all lost.
Mrs. Rebec;* Cohen, of Jefferson, Texas, who was
accompanied* by her cousin, W. Solomonsby, of Paris,
Texas, slates that she was on tho forward guard of
the boat, and owing to the severity of the storm which
was raging said, “Let’s go into the cabin,’’ aud .ns as
she rose the explosion occurred.
JHE WAS BLOWN INTO THE RIVER,
where, seeing a man near, sho grasped him by the
neck, and he told her to catch his left arm or she
would drown both, which she did, aud soon after a
spar came floating by, which he seized, aud they
held to it, floating down tho river for a
long disin-.ee, till the barber of I lie boat

wf-re safely landed on the sh >re. Him Cohen wss

SPOKE IN THE HIGHEST TERMS
of the conduct of tho officers, especially of Captain
Carter and tbe Steward. Notwithstanding the former
was severely hurt, he was most active iu the work of
relieving others and extinguishing the fires.

YcSteiday a IIeuald reporter interviewed Col. B. G
Lcckett. at the Brown House, upon the condition snd
prospects of the growing cotton crop of Southwest
G orgia.
said tii-d the fa’s! and destructive caterpillar is
running wild in ail the fit-id* of the cotton belt as
far West as Columbus, and as far North a* Macon
county ; staid vthere the preparations of Wheecnant
and Royal have not been used, and.that whe:ever they
have appeared and been let alone the crop has been cut
off cue-half.
That Lee had used those preparations with per
fect success throughout his plantations, securing Ills
crop in every field. They are instant death to the
worm whenever aud wherever applied to the plant.
If used with judgment, they will not at all injure
the plant; but a great raary men are so skeptical
about new inventions that they refuse to havo any
thing to do with them at first.
Ha had a field attacked on Wednesday. On Friday
morning he could have stood in one place aud gath
ered a handful of caterpillars. The preparations were
applied that day. (5u Saturday not one living ono
could be found in it.
He regarded the catterpiller not unlike the common
house fly—tho cider the world got the more there was
of them. They had p!aycd havoc in Southwest Qcor.
gia every ye3r since the war, but the planters will soon
learn to mutter them.
The essential quality of the poison is Paris green-
pplicd with common wheat flour and sprinkled upou
the plant with a sifter made for that purpose.
A Ktw aim Beautiful Fountui •
ew and more beautiful Fountaiu than auy yet
received has arrived At the Central Park. It represents
a swan supported by a mermaid. It will be placed in
position in the lake this week, snd will greatly add to
the attractions of that already attractive feature.
In company with a well kuown gentleman of Atlanta
e visited the Central Park. He declared it to be the
most grandly beautiful place he ever saw, and that if
his city had it no money could buy it. He was aston
ished to leatn that the grounds weie only laid tff a
little more than two years ago.
The City.
Yest.rday was the hottest day of the year. So g eat
as the hc.t that no visible change in the atmosphere
:curred till after midnight. The x»eople spent the
day in lounging around their rcsi.ieuc«s aud hotels,
hunting cool spots. Except in ica boxes none had ai
yet been reported as being found.
The churches were slimly attended aud the services
without auy spCcialauimation. As a rule our minis
ters favor the id< a of being given furloughs during
this hot and all other hot weather.
It was rumored ou the streets Sunday afternoon tLat
Pike had attempted to take liis own life, but there was
not a word of truth iu it.
The funeral of William Fjfe was largely attended by
his friends Sunday afternoon. For many years he was
a well known Cotton Avenue grocery merchant, but
retired from it some time ago.
Vegetables in our local market are becoming scurce
and higher. We have had plenty of rain to raise a
second crop of everything, but no one lias taken the
forethought to plaut Ihe seed except professional gar- i
deners. The huckster stands are looking empty in
comparison with a few weeks ago.

An Almost Scrlons Accident.
A well-nigh fatal accident occurred this morning
about eight o’clock. As A. Chapman, the well known
Third street carriage dealer, entered his honse, in the
back part of his store, he had a large derringer pistol
in his left pantaloons pocket, the hammer of which
came in contact wtth the seat |it an i exploded. The
pistol ball was as large as his thumb, and grazed his
left side, producing a flesh wound. The pocket
clothes were torn as by a young bomb shell.
Chapman was stunned aud insensible for a moment
thou rallied, and it was supposed be was killed. He
is in bed to-day, but be requests the Herald to an
nounce that be will sell carriages and buggies to.
morrow as usual. He had a pi*tol in his pocket for
the purpose of shooting a dog that tried to bite him
tbe night before and is not in the habit of carrying
concealed werpons.
Somethin}; Preposterous.
It was announced at tho Herald Macon Bureau
to-night that it would be prosecuted fur libel
upon Mrs. L. BPike; that the explanation made iu.
the paper was not sufficient, and that the Herald
would be sued for damagea in a wanton and unjustifia
ble assault upon the character of Mrs. P»ke.
The SmithvJllc Murder.
Whan the train passed Smithville to-day, the real
murder of youug Johnson remained in gloom. A ne
gro, who was a former blacksmith iu the shop of
Johnson’s father, had been arrested Saturday night,
and it was thought tlio others had be n implicated.
a Herald special agent, detailed from the Americus
Bureau, will bo on tbo ground to-morrow and de
tail the whole facts to the latest hour.
Stampede of is Horse.
This afternoon tho horse of Mayor Hull'was stam
peded by Benner’s bear. Tho horse ran away at a
furious rate around Mulberry street, thence to Cotton
Avenue and Dixie works, where he struck a pile of
lumber, receiving serious injuries. The buggy turned
over and the shaits snapped -and was otherwise
wrecked. The bear is still on hand to leach higher
branches of civilization.
Garrett Discharged from Arrest.
This afternoon DeWitt Garrett was brou ght before
Judgo Hall ou a writ of habeas corpus, charged with
being accessory before the fact in tbe case of 8. B.
Pike for the murder of Baer. After the case wss called
the prosecution failed to spposr, when Garrett wss
immediately discharged from arrest, and this after
noon appeared upon the streets.
Wink on the Southwestern Railroad.
When the down freight train reached. Marshalvillc
on the Southwestern Road this morning, there was a
switch displaced or broken. The train, thundering
by, ran off; the engine passed over safely, but six cars
were completely wrecked snd plunged into a ditch.
Nobody hurt. The accldeut delayed the express train
hour, until tho wreck was cleared awsv. The
trains new run regularly.
Local Brevities.
Tho scarlet fever is iu tho family of Col. T. W.
Maugham.
Iu the county court six or seven cases were heard.
Nothing worthy of report.
The Mayor had one case ot a negro whipping hia
