Death of Rev. Robert C. Smith.
Another good man and faithful servant of the
Living God has gone to his rest, and now re
poses in the boeom of his Father God.
Tbs subject of this notice died at his resi
dence in Vine villa yesterday, after an illness of
three weeks, aged sixty.three years.
Long and earnestly has he labored In the
Haater’a vineyard, and at the time of his deoesse
I actively engaged in the ministry, supplying

twenty years before the war he was identified

school, wh’ch preceded the formal open-

When Oglethorpe was removed to Atlanta he
retired from all connection with it, and has
been engaged exclusively in preaching
gospel.

In the pleasant little notice male of a visit lo
the sanctum of the TxLzoiupa and Mxsezxoza
the 17ih instant, of a bevy of (d tors retarD-
iog homo from Americas, sliding to the pre
sentation of a handsome cake by an old friend,
Mr. Baker, which had been given to the Press
Association, and then in tnrn donated by them
the yonng ladies of Farlow Female College,
the following playfnl allusion was made to batch-
elor Baker's address:
“The Honris and the angels, and the lilies
the valley, and tho rose of SharoD, were no
inhere compared to theso Americas gals.”
Commenting upon this ploasant badinage,
which was not intended in any sense to be de
rogatory to tho ladies, the Snmler Bepnblican,
after ascribing the article to Mr. Reese, who
represented this paper at the Press Convention,
hsa thla to say:
“Coming from one who was so well enter
tained by onr citizens daring his visit to our
oity. we think the language is anything bat com
plimentary to the ladies of Americas. It is
neither chaste nor refined. It is a vulgar way
of exproaalog one’s gratification, to say tho
least of it.”
In jastioe to onr associate, the “other junior"
would remark that he neithor wrote the artiole
In question, nor was be present at the banqcet
presentation of the aforesaid cake. The
writer simply intended to make a point against
his batchelor friend, and learns for the first
time that to oall the fair Honris, or liken them
the lilies of the valley and the rose of Sha
ron, was considered coarse or disrespeotfal.
Certainly onr brotbren of the press in their
mention of the piece en ronle for Atlanta, did
not so consider it, and we venture the opinion,
too, that the gentlo ladies of Americas who dis
tinguished themselves In their delicate courte
sies and attentions to the members of the Press
AssooIstloD, will cot oondemn an act of mere
gallantry ao transparent and harmless. In sober
earnest, we feel aggrieved at the misoonstruetfon
whieh has been placed upon the affair, and beg
leave to assure the ladies and citizens of Ameri-
ons that nothing was further from our Intention
than lo give offense.
Does Hanging Prevent Harder ?
The Hew York Gan prints a long oatalogne of
recent murders oommitted in despite of what it
considers the recent stringent administration of
oapital punishment, and argues that the gallows
has no salutary effeot in preventing murder.
Perhaps so! Vie are not a very firm and well
grounded advooate of capital punishment. But
let us consider on tbo other hand, that a reck
less indifference to human life has beoome a
chronic disease all over the oonnlry, and we
oannot reasonably expeot a cure by a little spas-
modlo treatment. The pnblio demoralization
mast be oounterooted by a long, steady, uni
form conrsa of legal administration in which
every donbt shall be dispelled finally that the
legal penalty of murder will follow its commis
sion with almost mathematical certainty. Ia
tbo existing state of facts, we suppose not one
in flvo to ten casas of clear mnrder is punished
by tbo halter any where in the oountry, and
how then osn It be said that hanging is no
remedy ? Wait till it is fairly and folly tried
and fails.
Pen Picture ot a Specimen Indian
Claim Agent.
Congressman Shuaks, of Indiana, in his re
port on Indian frauds to bo presented to Con
gress at its next session, draws the following
graphio picture of a class that have thriven
wonderfully sinoe the trooly loyl came into
power. Shanks’ description, however, will suit
great many Radical officials:
An Indian claim agent is nniike most other
peoplo. Ho is generally bankrupt in morals,
religion and politics; he will make unconscion
able demands for the most imaginary servioes;
will make any kind of representation to the In
dians against tho character of biB own people
and government that, in his judgment, will
overreach his clients; will magnify Ms own im
portance and traduce others; will impudently
claim an exclusive knowledge of publio records
that are really known to every one; will threat
en others in order to carry his point; will ac-
accept pay on both sides of bis ease, and the
Lst and best pay is the bost served. He will
bny or sell, corrupt or be corrupted, which
ever promises the moat money to him. Ho will
attaok any other of the same class of operatives
if not permitted lo share in the spoils. He will
marry a eqnaw, and beoome an Indian to se
cure an inllaenoe among them,and will abandon
his victim and children if necessary for gain.
He will abandon American citizenship for that
of a band of Indiana, solely to divide their
property with them; and that being done will
abandon them. In short, if there is anything
that an Indian ageat will not do it is that he
will not treat his clients, the Indians, honestly.

Sonthern Halls.
A Washington special In the New York Tri
bune of Tuesday says:
The Postmaster General said to-day that he
intends at once to begin improvements looking
to the famishing of the peoplo of the South
with better mail facilities than ever before.
To this end he will endeavor to make the pos
tal-ear service first-class, and to inoroase, and
in some cases to doable, the service in the
Sonthern States.
There is great room for improvement in the
Southern mail service—for it is far inferior to
what it was twenty years ago, and has even
been retrenched within a year under plea that
the Department could not afford it. We shall
be glad to see an amendment.
Accident at Sing Sing Penitentiary.
Oa Sunday morning (says the World) at ten

then without a word of command from tho keep

leries to render assistanoe to the wounded com

number gathered together, and after a sufficient
portion had been detailed to remove the suffer

at the command of their particular keepers.
The soeno a moment after the aeoident was a
terrible one to witness, the pavement being
filled for a spao* of ten feet with suffering ha

The Govebnob's Convention.—Tho Griffin
has this say of the above convention:
The main debate of the whole affair waa npon
effort of the Chattanooga delegation to have
i proposed canal started at Chattanooga. In
advocacy of this scheme ex-SIayor and Senator
James, and Mr. Snyder occupied moat of the
s of the convention, and snoceded in carry-
_ their own votes in favor of Chattanooga, the
balance of the convention voting en masse for
the route and plan suggested by Gen. Weems,
McBride and their associates. We have seldom
seen m more complete specimen of vanity and
oomplacency than Mr. James presents. He ap
pears to bear the world npon hia shoulders with
out an effort and Chattanooga ia the pivot npon
which it rest*. Mr. Snyder iB entitled to the
first premium in the matter of cheek. He can
stand np and address a crowd a half day that is
determined not to hear him. He was oheered
down and hooted down a hundred times, but
stood his ground without the quiver of a muscle
the faintest semblance of a blnsh. He made
speech as be intended to when he left home,
I he did so in defiance of the crowd. There
mnch stolid indifference about him as we have
rer seen exhibited by any heg driver that ever
introduced pork into Georgia. Thia yonng man
is bound to make his mark. Hs has advertised
himself thoroughly, and well we wonld add,

know he will take care of himself.

Gallantly Rescued—At the Presbyterian
pionie, given at Montgomery yesterday, a little
boy named Kempton, eleven years old, fell
overboard off a yaobt and snnk beneath the
water. Mr. Habersham King boldly plnnged in
and after diving and making considerable
searoh under the surface, succeeded in finding
the little fellow, who was almost given np as
lost in the strong undercurrent, and gallantly
swam ashore with him. When terra firma was
reached the rescued and his brave ro-cucr wero
nearly exhausted. On regaining his breath,
little Kempton's first words were: “Thank
God—where's my hat?”
Two Nzqboes Dbowned.—Two negroes, Ben
jamin Campbell and Jack Cook, who were em
ployed by Captain H. J. Dickerson, were nocl-
dent&lly drowned at the wharf of the Black
Star Line, yesterday morning. It appears that
Campbell and Cook were engaged in discharg
ing cargo from the port batch of the stoamship
Montgomery, and while engaged in bringing a
case of goedi from the port to tho wharf, the
lashing of the stage gave way, precipitatingthcm
and the case into the river. One of the men oonld
swim, and wonld nndonbtedly have been saved
had not tho fatos willed it otherwise, for the one
who was nnable to swim, seized with a death
grasp bis comrade, and thus they straggled to
gether for a few minntos in the water, when
they sank before assistance could be rendered
them. Soiroh was mado for the bodies, but up
last evening they bad not been recovered.

The Gbops.—Tho stand of ootton in this sco-
tion is excellent. The late gentle rains have
caused this result, and the young plants look
vigorous and healthy. Corn is also doing well,
and has recently taken a start to grow. The
wheat is heading ont, and what little there is
seems to bo doing very well. Owing to the
heavy rains and hard freezes during the winter,
the stand, in many inatanoes, ia very imperfect,
and we cannot possibly count much on the
wheat crop this year. Notwithstanding the late
damaging frost, there seems to be, in many
p'.aoes. a very good supply of peaohes, apples
and other fruit, and at thia time it bids fair to

F. McOolInm early on Friday morning of last

McCollum, being entirely unprepared to defend
himself at the time, yielded to the demand, and
sent for Col. James K. Brown and others, who
examined the authority of the party for making
the arrest, and fonnd that it came from tho Sn-
jerior Court of Pickens county, based upon an

MoColInm on sny oondition whatever, and de
clared their intention of taking him to Pickens,
dead or alive. They accordingly procured I
rope, intending to tie the prisoner after leaving
town. He was marched before them for a short
distance, when he suddenly made a thrust at
Wsrren with his knife, making a considerable
wound on his neck, but failing to sever the
jugular vein, which was his intention to do. He
then broke ranks, and a volley was fired at him,
but be sucoeeded in making his escape unhurt.

The building sustained no damage. The chief
miller, Mr. A. J. Koon, and s number of assist
ants, were temporarily 6tnnned by the elec
tricity of the stroke, and a enstomer, sitting in
his wagon some distanoe from the mill, was
gently lifted into the dirt. We are gratified to
record no farther damage of person or property,
as the stroke is reported to have been particu

HIDMUHT DISPATCHES.
Still Later from the Modoc Snrrender.
San Feancisco, May 23.—The Bulletin pub
lishes a graphio account of the surrender of a
part of the Modoc tribe. The war is considered
over. Gen. Davis’ staff have separated—some
are at Treks, en route for New Orleans. The
few horses ridden by the Modocs, were gannt
and weak, and scarcely able to bear the women
and children.
As they rode into camp all the braTes wore
portions of the federal uniform. All entered
into oamp is funeral procession. There was
no noise among the soldiers. The Modoos said
nothing.
Davis advanced and was formally introduced.
Boston Charley is twenty years old and speaks
English well. He smiled meekly and shook
Davis’ hand. Daria demanded their pistols and
other arms.
Davis then assigned them a camp, telling
them they would be shot if they attempted to
escape. There were half naked children and
squaws who could hardly hobble.
Faichild says there are twenty back still in
the cottonwood. The dissatisfaction ia confirm
ed by the captain of a band who said he parted
with Captain Jack eight days ago.
The at my has divided into squads to pursue
Captain Jack and his party.
Hooker Jim, the Lost River murderer, has
just surrendered.
The Bodoc Snrrender.
Washington, May 22.—Official dispatches re

Gen. Davis reports that about half the Modoos,

he will push the pursuit of Jack and his party,
and hopes to end the war soon.
French Politics.
Paeis, Msy 23.—The debate on the interpo
lation was introduced by the Conservatives, af
ter which there was great confusion. The
chamber voted, and by a large majority refused
to hear Thiers. A Bpecial meeting of Depu
ties is called for 9 to-morrow.
President Thiers then mounted the tribune to
speak. Instantly a storm of objections and
protestations came from the Right and Right
Centre, which waa met with contrary cries from
the other sides. A scene of excitement and
confusion followed whioh baffles description.
The President, in vain, endeavored to make
himself heard. His voice was drowned in the
uproar.
Finding the hou°e wonld not hear him M.
Thiers descended from the tribnne and con
sulted with the Minister of Justice.
Dnfavro took his place in the tribnne, and
seeming silr • ec, said that he had been in
structed to f.-Tmally notify the Assembly In ac
cordance with a law adopted last session, that
the President decided to address the house in
person, and requested adjournment until to
morrow morning, when he wonld proceed to de
liver his speech.
The Chamber accordingly adjourned. A spe
cial meeting of deputies of the Left has been
oaiJed at 9 to-morrow evening.
The Left were pleased with Dufavro's speech
and conduct.
No derisive action was taken to-day, and the
supporters of ths movement are hopefnl of se
eming a majority of twenty against the interpo
lation.

The Baltimore Tunnel Finished.
The last brick of the aroh of the tunnel of the
Baltimore sndFotomao Railroad under Balti
more was laid on Friday laat, and the keystone
the arch was fitted to ita plaoe. This tannel
7,480 feet long, and 15,000,000 of bricks have
been used in its oonstraotlon, besides immense
quantities of.stone for tho foundation and back
ing np tbe walls. “Che arch at Fulton street,”
says the Gazette, “was completed within two
minutes of the time when the keystone was
placed in the arch at Pennsylvania avenne.
This tnnnel is the longest in the Union exoept
the incomplete Hoosao tunnel. The oontxaot to
build it was made on the 27th of August, 1871,
and th» work was oompleted an the 17th of
May, 1873 —one year and a little less than eight
months. It was sat dowa as the most rapidly,
oompleted work of ita magnitude ever under
taken in the Union.
When the tnnnel of the same road under
Washington is completed, and in direct connec
tion with the rail from Washington via Alexan
dria to Ocooqnan, a considerable faoiiity will be
added to the means of travel between the South
and North very much to the advantage of the
pnblio, especially in winter, when the ice layB
ita embargo npon the river transportation. The
rails will be laid in.the Baltimore tunnel and
tbe trains be tanning through ia a very few
days. When the like facility shall bo afforded
Washington, and the delay of about an hour
which has occurred in travel there is ended by
straight shoot through that oity it will be a
great blessing to passengers. We wish the same
faoiiity afforded to parsons going through Wash
ington that we gtvo them In going through
Richmond.
DEVASTATION BT CATERPILLARS.
Annoy Id C Trains, Destroy Inc Timber, nod
Tubing Possession of the Conntry,
A correspondent, writing from Sardis, Miss.,
to the Memphis Appeal nnder date of May 9th,
says :
Perhaps not the least of all the canees of
unpleasant apprehension and nervon3nes3 in
this region is the presence and tbo astonish-
ing ravages of those fnrry little 4 cusses ’ the
caterpillars. They are here and there and
everywhere, out of doors, on tho houses, all
over the houses, ou one's clothes, in one's
clothes, nnder one’s clothes, and all over one.
They have not only taken possession of
houEet, trees, gates, and fences, bnt they have
actually marched in full force acd taken fall
possession of the railroads, acd so firmly have
they established themselves npon it that a writ
of ejectment wonld have no more effect toward
removing them than the sigh of a mosquito.
They etop the oars every day more than once,
and tbongh the iron-horse slaughters them by
millions upon millions, yet they fall back in
good order (the survivors do), and before the
next train appears are sufficiently reinforced to
present a formidable front and offer a deter
mined resistance.
“They are, take them all in all, the most an.
noying little devils that ever got on earth, ex-
cept, perhaps, those seven that are partionlarly
mentioned in Scriptnre. Naturally, and here
tofore, at this season, no conntry oonld present
more beantifnl and cheering prospect than
onr forests dad in their habiliments of ver-
dure. Now, bowover, they are dreary and bleak.
Tbo noble oaks, which have always in April acd
May afforded shade and shelter and conceal
ment, at least for squirrels, are as bare now as
bean boles, and tho biggest one. if every leaf
were a cabbage, coaid not afford subBtance
enough to set a bachelor’s pot a-boilieg. That
is not all. They are surely destroying all the
timber. This is an alarming fact, bat a fact
nevertheless, and unless by the Importation of
English sparrows or come other means (and
none other has yet been fonnd to answer the
purpose) their progress can be stopped, they
will continue their depredations and destructive
attacks on ths forests until they desolate the
whole country.
