Mobmon “ Higheb Law.”—Elder Cannon, cf
the Mormon Chnrch at Salt Lake, was lately
put on tho witness stand, when the following
testimony was elicited:
Q. Are yon a member of tho Chnrch of Jesus
Christ of Latter-day Saints ? A. I am.
Q. Is not polygamy one of the fundamental
doctrines of that chnrch ? A. It is.
Q. Do you believe that Polygamy is a revela
tion from God to that Church ? A. I do.
Q. Which do you consider paramount, tho
revelation, or the law of 18G2, passed by
Congress? A. The revelation.
Q. Would you consider a man living in poly
gamy guilty of adultery under the statutes of

Q. Wonld yon obey or be governend by the
revelation or tho law ? A. I do not think that
question pertinent; Ih© question has never
been presented; I do not know which I would
obey; my sentiments are known to the
public.
Personal.—We find 4be fallowing in tho
New Orleans Picayune, of Wednesday:
The officere and members of “ Hood’s Texas
Brigade” will be gratified to learn that there
has been an addition to the personal staff of;
the distinguished General commanding. He
joined, not the cavalry, but the infantry, a few
days since, 'at the Neff House, at Willow
Springs, Ohio; and some idea maybe had of
his previous talent for war when we state that
he already completely controls the commissary
department, and commands his General in
every respect.
The descent into the hitherto unexplored pit
in the Mammoth Cave, in Kentucky, was made
on Friday, 28th nit., by A. D. Babbitt, a tele-
graph operator from Michigan. He fonnd bot
tom at a distance of 198 feet from the main
aTenue. The descent was witnessed by 200
gnests of the hotel, who welcomed the daring
yonng adventurer back with hearty cheers and
congratulations. The rope with which he was
lowered into the pit was dangerously cut in
several places by the rooks which it had passed.
THE GEORGIA PRESS.
The Dawson Jonrnal says cotton buyers are

Rev. J. H. Colley, has accepted a call to. the
Baptist Church of Dawson.
Possum hunting and camp meetings are the

Dawson.
The house and kitchen of B. H. Hood, of
Dawson, were burned last Saturday night week.
Loss about $8,000.
The “new hotel” fever at Dawson has been
succeeded by a first-class chill, so visitors to that

The Journal says the meeting to raise funds for
the pnrpose was a complete failure.
Two of tho largest men in Terrell county—
Messrs. W. 'Woodbright and W. B. Gibson—
have recently had arms broken by being thrown

which do certainly explain it on philosophical
principles.
Alf Donaldson, who killed Mr. Burrell Bailey,
in Decatur county, last November, and for

The popular chorus at Gainesville just now,
is: “Give ns brick”—not in the hats of the
singers, though, we hope. If so, we hope the
G. T.’s will please make a note of it.
The Gainesville Eagle says the schools of that
county under State control, which set out with
snch vigor, have nearly all collapsed. We have
not heard, however, that Lewis’ salary has
collapsed.
A squad of Federal cavalry arrived in Gaines
ville last Tuesday, having charge a number of
citizens of Hall county, who had been arrested
on various charges. And the Gainesville Eagle
says drunkenness on the streets and no arrests,
is the order of the day. Civilization is spread
ing np that way.
Gainesville was to vote, yesterday, on a prop
osition to subscribe fonr hundred shares in the

The Columbus Sud, of Friday, says:
Tee Other Side.—Members of Council who
voted against the appropriation of $200,000 to
the Bainbridge, Cuthbert and Columbus Rail
road, cr several of them, have expressed them
selves as not opposed to a road to Stowart, but
against giving money, no matter how guarded
the restriction, to a corporation in which Kim
balls have a controlling interest, and Columbus
can only have one Director; and where the
officers of the road do not know how much stock
has been taken. They have no confidence in
the men at the head of the enterprise.
We clip the following from the Savannah
News, of Friday:
Bonded and Released.—Elias Nesmith and
Charles Fowler, who were arrested some time
ago by tho United States authorities, on the
charge of passing counterfeit money, and who
have, since their arrest, been incarcerated in
tho jail, in this city, gave bonds of $2,500 each,
on Wednesday last, and were released from cus
tody.
The New Telegraph Company.—The South

wires daring the afternoon.
Laeoe Shipments.—The steamship Herman
Livingston, which left this port last night for
New York, carried 1,802 bales of cotton, the
largest cargo of cotton shipped this season, and
the largest the vessel ever carried before.
The case of the State vs. N. P. Hotchkiss, late
Auditor of the State Road, charged with cheat
ing and swindling, has been postponed until
further notice, and probably indefinitely.
We dip the following from the Atlanta Era,
of yesterday:
tTatiti to Beat.—The editor of the Rural
Southerner of this city was recently visited by
Mr. Robert Daniel, of Cobb connty, who, in the
conrse of conversation, remarked that he almost
felt a delicacy in relating the facts concerning
his family. His father was married twice, and
by one wife was the father of twelve, and by
tho other fourteen—in all, twenty-six children.
He was born in 1743, and died 1840. He lived
to seo 300 descendants' from him. A grand
daughter of hiB brought her grand-children one
hundred miles to see him, and the wife of tho
venerable old gentleman drank water from a
enp handed him by a grand daughter of her
grand daughter.
The Rev. J. Dousing, of Florence, Missonri,
ho3 been called to the charge of the German
Lutheran Chnrch of Atlanta.
Charlie Birdsong, aged six years, fell from a
tree near Antioch, Troup connty, and was so
seriously injured that he lived only a few hours.
We regret to read the following in the Atlanta
Era, of yesterday:
Knoxville, Tenn., October 4, 1871.—Our
people are again quieted down after the excite
ment naturally consequent upon tho murder of
General Clanton under so extraordinary circum
stances. His mnrderer, Colonel D. M. Nelson,
has returned and given bail in a bond of $25,-
000 signed by some of onr most prominent citi
zens, among whom are William G. Brownlow
and Captain Jaques, Vice President of the East
Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia Railroad. The
general opinion is that Nelson will never suffer
the penalty of his crimo—at least not in this
mode of existence. Money and position will
baffle the thing in the courts till finally, by
some hook or crook, he will be released.
The salary of the Mayor of Atlanta, for the
year 1872, has been fixed at $2,000. A move
was made in the conncil to fix it at $1,000, so
as to diminish the nnmber of candidates, but as
most of the Aldermen didn’t know what might
happen, the proposition was speedily knocked
in the head.
Enoch Dixon, for whose capture there was a
reward of $1,000 offered by Bollock, was ar
rested near Grantville, Thursday. Dixon hails
from Habersham connty.
The Atlanta Snn reports the speedy cure, in
two cases, of the bite of the highland-moceasin
by unlimit ed benzine, on the plantation of
Wm. Gunn, in Taliaferro connty. In one case
the victim wasa horse, and in the other a negro.
The remedy proved effectual in a few hours.
The Cotton Question.—This is perhaps the
most important question of the day. In fact,
it is the question. How to raise it so as to
leave a profit in the hands of the planter after
his crop has been disposed of. Generally, the
meat and bread bills, together with other plan
tation supplies eat it all np before it is made.
It is with an eye to a remedy for this very evil
that Burdick Brothers propose to famish bacon,
com, and all other supplies at remarkably low
figures. They keep a first class house and are
anxious that the farmers should have a fair
showing next year, which they intend shall be
had if famishing them with the needed supplies
at low rates will accomplish the object.
Oub wide-awake neighbors, Hunt, Rankin &
Lamar, are still pushing ahead with vigor. Their
drag establishment can truly be called a live
concern. Any one visiting their store will be
oonvinoed that they mean business—much busi
ness. And they succeed. Why? Simply be
cause they keep a full and complete stock and
sell goods at reasonable prices. They invite
inspection, and we underwrite satisfaction.
Editorial Correspondence—No. 5.
Augusta, Ootober 6,1871.
The xoyageur either for pleasure or business
to the North wonld do well to select the Great
Atlantic Seaboard route, via Weldon, and Bay
Lint, throngh Portsmouth, Va., to Baltimore,
Tho connections are close, eating houses unsur
passed, and the time about the same as by any
other mode of transit. The traveler has an op
portunity, also, of visiting Fortress Monroe,
that impregnable military barrier between the
North and South, now world-renowned as the
prison of President Davis. Here, too, pass in
review many of the historic scenes of the late
straggle for freedom. Old Federal Hill, Fort
McHenry, Fort Carrol (still unfinished), Sewell’
Point, Newport News, and the celebrated bat
tle ground of Admiral Buchanan, are pointed
out in turn.
It was our good fortune to form the acquain
tance on the boat, after leaving Baltimore,
of Captain John W. Beaton, an eye witness of
this the greatest naval conflict of the war, and a
gallant Confederate soldier. A more faithful or
enthusiastic Cicerone could not have been fonnd.
The narrator states that thousands of excited
spectators on shore beheld the battle, and in
less than thirty minutes, under the irresistible
strokes and deadly fire of the Merrimao, two
mighty steam frigates, the Congress and Cum
berland, went down with a multitude of souls
on board. So great was the panic at Fortress
Monroe that its evacnation was openly mooted.
Had not the Merrimao grounded in mid career
it is almost impossible to estimate the damage
she wonld have inflicted upon the enemy’s fleet.
The writer has never been able to comprehend
the wisdom of that policy which ordered the
destruction of this, the most formidable of Con-
federate vessels.
The evening was calm and pleasant, a light
breeze rippling the bright bosom of the waters,
and the excursion through the entire length of
the noble Chesapeake was one scene of delight.
Hundreds of white sails dotted the surface of the
deep, some of the more distant illustrating the
“dip of the horizon,” and the circular form of
the earth by displaying their canvass only, while
the immense hulls were hidden from observa
tion.
The next morning, about 8 o’clock, we rounded
into Portsmouth harbor, and made fast t<? tho
pier, in full view of tho navy yard and a mag
nificent line-of-battle-ship, floating the broad
pennant of the commodore of the squad
ron. On one side of the Elizabeth river lay the
ancient city of Norfolk, with its spires and
weather stained buildings, and on the other tho
equally venerable town of Portsmouth.
Save St. Augustine, those cities aro more
antique and foreign in appearance than any in
the Union. Many of the honses are covered,
both walls and roof, with shingles, almost wholly
hidden by the vegetable moss which time has
accumulated npon them.
With its unrivalled harbor, Norfolk should be
the great entrepot of Southern commerce. Bat
the oft told story, lack of enterprise, as one of
her own citizens remarked, will account for its
tardy progress.
From Portsmouth to Wilmington, North
Carolina, there is little to interest the traveler
After crossing the famous great Dismal Swamp,
with little variation, the country is a dead fiat,
too poor almost to subsist any of the animal
creation. Thousands of acres are nearly de
nuded of trees and grass, and for most part the
pines aro dwarfed in growth, and the soil sterile
and unproductive.
But for the manufacture of naval stores, the
country, at least on the line of railroad, wonia
be uninhabitable. In all these dreary wastes
we saw neither squirrel, gopher or salamander.
As yon approach Wilmington a more God-for
saken region cannot be described. Even the
sqnalidhnts of the negroes are trenched around
to keep the water ont, and the peeled, white
tranks of the pines give a ghost-like aspect to
tho country.
WILMINGTON TO AUGUSTA.
This portion of the two Carolinas is also far
from interesting- tboofiL c*mo nootfona nr* tol
erably fertile, and the people are more healthy
and thrifty in appearance. Sumter is a flour
ishing village, as level as a billiard table, and
planted with long avenues of beautiful shade
trees. -Much of this region is intersected with
swamps, and was the favorite theatre of the ex
ploits of General Marion, tho swamp fox of tho

both of com and cotton, are below an average,
and the latter, especially, is meager in size, and
seems to have fallen a prey to blight and rast.
The yield will be lamentably short.
POLITICAL FEELING.
In North Carolina the people aro dejected at
the result of the late election to form a new
constitution, and deeply regret the movement
at the juncture. They say it will require en
hanced effort and onergy to save the State from
the Radicals at tho next general election, and
Tamer and other leaders are blamed without
stint for their agency in the matter. The late
Kn-klnx convictions, it is also asserted, were
brought abont by packed jnrieB.
The condition is rather more hopefnl than
hitherto in South Carolina, bnt the labor of the
country i3 so greatly demoralized, the crops so
scant and taxes so onerous, that it is hard to im
agine a worse state of affairs.
On the whole, after careful observation, we
are disposed to believe that Georgia is far bet
ter off in resources, political freedom and gen
eral prosperity than any of her Southern sis
ters.
Let the next General Assembly do its duty
in the wholesome work of reform, and the pun
ishment alike of Radicals and recusant Demo
crats who have plundered the treasury, and
nearly made shipwreck of onr credit, and a
bright fntnre awaits us. H. H. J,
An Unprotected System.—Do not fancy be
cause yon feel strong that yon aro impregnable to
sickness. Whole neighborhoods ore frequently
prostrated at this season by malarious fevers. Vig
orous muscles and strong einew3, broad shoulders
and sound lungs, are no defence against the me
phitic vapors of autumn: Frames which have with
stood the summer heat may sneenmb now. Many
an athletic man, whose family depends for its sup
port on hie industry, now lies prostrate, weak and
helpless as a babo, under the periodical assaults of
chills and fever, or bilious remittent fever. This
could not be If all were wise enough to provide
against snch a contingency, by toniog and fortify
ing the system with Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters.
This approved vegetable tonic is absolutely harm
less, so that it is sheer folly not to take it as a safe
guard at a season when diso&Bes of the liver, the
stomach, the bowels, and indeed all the visceral
organs are generally prevalent. To keep the sys
tem in order and insure health, or to put it in or
der when this precaution has been neglected, is the
duty of overy human being who values life. For
both these purposes Hostetter’s Bitters is design
ed, and it answers both. Potty local dealers are
endeavoring, in many parts of the country, to sub
stitute preparations made of impure and dangerous
materials in itB stead. Give them a wide berth.
They are prepared by unskillful experimon tore, who
want to turn a penny at the expense of the pnblio
health. octS-sodAwlw.
