SUNDAY MORNING, JULY 16, 1871.
LIBERTY COUNTY, OR RT. JOHN'S PAR
ISH.
Its Pnsf History nml PrMMit Condition.
This ancient portion of tbe aea coast of Geor
gia was settled by a colony of English who
moved in mass, first from Dorchester, England,
to Dorchoster, Massachusetts, thenco to Dor
chester, South Carolina, and finally, in 17.V),
to Midway, Georgia, then known as St. John’s
Parish.
lteligions prosecution drove this devoted
people from the land of their fathers, and, like
the children of Israel, they gathered together
their snbstance and wives and little ones, and,
led by their beloved pastor, sought a refuge
in the wilds of America. No band of emi
grants over excelled them in piety, intelligence
nnd public spirit. Of this colony it may truly
be said, also, that they preserved and retained
their distinct institutions, habits and individu
ality of character to a most remarkable extent.
Occupying almost the whole of wbat is now
known as the 15th district of Liberty county,
and worshipping together every Sabbath in sun
shine or storm, at old Midway, in the faith of
their ancestors, seldom did one of Ibeir num
ber stray from the fold to seek his fortunes in
the outer world. Indeed, even to this day it is
provorbial that almost every family is related
by blood or marriage.
ltico and com wero the staple products of the
colony nntil tho introduction of sea island cot
ton, which bocamo a great sonree of revenue.
When the tronbles with tho mother country
aroso, these hardy sons of freedom who had
braved the tomahawk and wilderness in quest of
religious liberty, without waiting for co-opora-
tion in Georgia, boldly joined the rebellion and
sent one of their number, Lyman Ilall, to the
Continental Congress. Mr. Hall’s name appears
among tho signers of the declaration of inde
pendence. During that patriotic struggle, her
sons gave freoly of their blood and treasure to
the sacred cause, and bore thomselvca heroic
ally in the contest. Tmo to their pions antece
dents, they still freqnentod tho sanctuary,
armed and roady for the deadly conflict. Tra
dition states that even their pastor, Rev. Moses
Allen, carried his musket with him into tho
pnloit. This gallant servant of God also gave
his life for his country, being drowned in
Charleston harbor, while a prisoner and attempt
ing to escape from a prison hnlk by swimming
to tho shoro.
Gen. James Screven, after whom Screven
county is named, also a partisan officer from
this community, was ambuscaded and fired npon
within three miles of the old Church, receiving
eleven balls in his body. Ho lived a whole
week afterwards.
Daring tho Revolution this first house of wor
ship was burnt by the British, the melted glass
and charred cinders attesting the fact even at
the present time. The edifice now standing,
which was bnilt about 00 years since, is still
one of the most commodious and handsome
country churches in the State. Congregational
in government, it yot retains its ancient organ
ization, but is the mother of three Presbyterian
churches, and has sent forth from her bosom
more than fifty ministers of the gospel, many
of them not unknown to fame.
For seventy years previous to the late war,
St John’s Parish, which had received tho name
of Liberty county from her noble stand in the
war of the revolution, enjoyed a degreo of pros
perity vonohsafed to but few localities. With
no overgrown fortunes, thero was yet a more
general diffusion of wealth than in any com
munity wo have ever known. With bnt rare
exceptions all enjoyed tho blessings of a com
petency, and the education of tho young was
most carefully regarded. As an evidonce of
this, at ono pt^od during tho writer's connec
tion with tho University of Goorgia, mu-fifth
of tho undergraduates woro from Liberty
connty.
She has also famished five professors to that
Boat of loarning, two of whom, including tho
Vioe Chancellor, belong now to tho faculty of
the University. Other literary, and several
medical colleges likewise, are preaidod over in
part by her sons, and a multitude of teachers
illustrate their old homo in the various schools
of the State.
For more than twenty years not a licensed
liqnor shop could be found within her limits.
It was while thns basking in the sunshine of
prosperity, and regarded everywhere as the
genial abode of intelligence, refinement, and
hospitality, that tho thunder clond of the re
bellion bars t npon this peaceful community.
Trne to his instincts and traditions, a host of
armed warriors rnshod to tho field, and watered
the soil of the Confederacy with their precious
blood.
An incident which occurred in 1862 will serve
to show the temper of her people : A Yankee
gunboat entered the month of New Port River
and steamed np into the heart of the country,
shelling every building and plantation within
reach of its gnns. Soon the alarm was sounded
nnd old men and boys, onco more attended by
Rev. D.L. Buttolph, their faithfnl pastor, flocked
to the river banks armed with rifles and shot
gnns, and poured a galling fire npon the decks
of this invader. Several were seen to fall, and
tho enemy, startled by this warm reception, put
about and made good his retreat with all possi
ble speed.
Years elapsed, and the dread finale of our
nnhappy but gallant struggle drew near. Eighty
thousand infnriated soldiers transformed into
demons by famine and the dangers of a pro
tracted march, led by the remorseless house
burner—Sherman, rushed like an avalanche o’er
the fertile plains of this devoted people, and no
cyclone or tornado ever brought greater havoc
and desolation.
Drank with snoocss and excitement at meet
ing their comrades of the navy, after the fall of
Fort McAllister, all discipline was suspended,
and the foe spread over the country like the
hordes of Attila, plundering, ravaging and de
stroying at will. Midway, that venerable tab
ernacle of the Lord, was made the headquarters
of Killpatrick's devils, and its sacred aisles pol
luted with the vandal tread and horrid oaths of
an insensate soldiery. The corner-stone of the
monument, which was laid on the centennial
celebration of the settlement of the country, to
the original fonnders of the colony, was nproot-
ed. Hecatombs of cattle were slaughtered at
the very doors of the sanctuary, and their bones
still bleach where they fell. The sacred repos
itory of the dead was oonverted into a mam
moth stable, and the graves of the departed de
filed. But not with content with this, the dwel
lings of unoffending women and aged citizens
were forcibly entered, their inmates robbed and
brutally treated, and in some instances left to
starve.
Cattle, sheep, horses, hogs and poultry were
shot and loft in their blood; fences were burned,
bridges destroyed, female helplessness insulted,
and a smiling territory converted into a howling
waste. From that day to this, the sceptre has
departed from this gallant people, and they
xtrnggle in vain for the bare necessaries of life.
Almost the entire negro population accompa
nied Sherman’s army as camp followers to Sa
vannah, whence, after becoming hopelessly de
moralized, they returned, to lord it over their
former owners.
This is now the condition of Liberty county.
The negroes, for the most part, occupy and cnl
tivate the farms of the land holders, and allow
their ol«l masters one third of wbat they pro-
duoe ; or they work tieo days for tho land hold
ers, and four days for themselves, and in the
end steal the major part of what falls to the
share of the farmer.
The old family seats are deserted, and rapidly
falling into the hands of Dutch oystermen and
adventurers, who plunder the negroes in turn,
and get rich on their ill-gotten gains. Icbabod
i written upon everything.
Amid this Cimmerian gloom, it affords ns
pleasure to chronicle that, throngh a letter re*
contly received from an old friend and comrade
in arms, dated WalthonrviUo, a struggling ray
of light illumines the dark prospect we have
painted. At this village, repeopled by the re
turn of its scattered inhabitants, a promising
school is in operation, taught by Mr. Monroe
Mclver, a gifted native of the old country. Let
us hail this circumstance as an omen for good,
and devoutly hope and pray that this noble old
home of an Elliott, a Cnthbert, a Law and a
Screven, and a host of other worthies, who
shono and flourished in better days, may yet
emerge from its dreary eclipse, and reflect its
former glories in all their splendor.

TVTEVER nauseate a weak stomach—
In The condition of a weak stomach was never
yet improved by cathartic drugs. They merely in
crease the irritation, which it is all- important to
allay. There is no preparation in existence which
so quickly and certainly relievos nausea as
Tarrant’s Seltzer Aperient,
Its immediate cffoct is to soothe and refrosli the
uneasy organ. It arrests vomiting or tlio disposi
tion to vomit, at once, and carries off without pain,
through the iutestinos, the morbid emotic matter
which is tho provocativo of nausea. A dose of tho
Aporientwill always effectually “ settle the stom
ach" after a night’s dissipation.

SUPPER AT MAGNOLIA,
fT^HE undersigned, having resumed the manufacture of tho above Gin, propose to make it what ittr.
. L before the war—The favorite of the South. Our work stands upon its merits, and we think thi
sufficient guarantee. We have secured the services of some of the best mechanical talent in the tw
ern shops, iu addition tosomeofthe best workmen from the shopof the late Samuel Griswold. Mr ChT'
Gardner, who eerved eightyears’ apprenticeship under E. Carver & Co., at East Bridgewater jt„
and who was employed as Superintendent of the Double Wells Shop, from the commencement of tf ’
manufacture of tho Moore Cotton Gin, until its suspension, is again at his post, and will give each Ci
his personal inspection before it leaves the shop.
In calling the attention of planters to our Cotton Gins, wo desire that they eliou'd notice the
menta that we offer, which are substantially as follows: * uve "
A PORTABLE ROLL BOX,
For obtaining any inclination of the Gin Rib or Grato, is nsod; tho object of which is to improve in tfa»
quantity ginned, oriesson the quantity and improvo the quality of lint. Also, to gin damp or wet eotto'
to alter the picking or separating tho lint from the seed—either to take more lint off, or less lint fnm
the seed, as circumstances require. Wo use both tho common Roll Box and a Swinging Front. Tks
latter is arranged to let out all tho seeds and hulls in a moment, and is very easily managed. °
THE GIN BRUSH
Wo make, cannot be excelled by any hair brush UBed. The bristles aro all drawn in by a cord, anti th»
timbor is all selected from tho best lumber, weU seasoned; and every Brush is made perfectly fire
rat proof.
CYLINDER AND BRUSH BOXES
Can furnish either, as may bo ordered. We lin6 thorn with the best
GIN SAWS.
We make all the Saws that we use from tho best English Cast Steel, and of any size that may be *.
sired. We employ, to superintend and manufacture our SawB, ono of tho best saw-makers in the Sona,-
and our machinery for the manufacture of Gin Saws cannot be excelled.
COTTON SEED CRUSHING 3IILL.
We aro the only succesrful manufacturers of this important and usoful invention—the Cotton Gin
with the Cotton Seed Crushing Mill attached. It will hardly be necossary here to allude to the immeii, t
saving and economical use of crushed cotton seed, as a mannre. We received a gold medal as a premj.
um, from the Fair of tho Cotton Planters’ Convention, held in Macon, Ga., I860, for tho best Com,a
Seed Crushers attached to the Gin Stand, to crush the seed as fast as it escapes from tho Roll. \fc re
fer to some of the many certificates that we have on the subject.
TRIAL OE THE GINS.
We keep constantly on hand seed cotton, and every Gin is tried before it leaves the shop—oM or now
ones.
REPAIRING OE OLD GINS.
We have a complete assortment of the very beat Cotton Gin Machinery in the country, and make re
pairing of old Gins a specialty. Planters will do well to send in their old Gins, and have them made a-
good as new, at a much less cost than a new Gin can be bought for. Seed on your orders and old Gic.
