THE GEORGIA FBESS.
A Badly Catd Word.
^tfltbetrne that usage flies the force and
jLiaUon of words, there is one word in the
.ease's Eflfttsb which ought to bring anil
sgtiorf Mi® Ktdioal party, and recover exem
phry and rindiotive damtges. We refer to the
nrd "I^yaity," end cite the diapetohea to-dey
la .rldenoe of the praotioai dishonor whicli has
1 pat on a good, old-fsshioned word, of
1 proper nse under dynastic governments,
sad intended to signify an honorable and nn-
avtrring fidelity to the person and anthority
of the tovsreign.
General Jefferson O. Davis illustrates to wbat
an iitsat the Northern brethren have tarred
and feathered that word when he telegraphs to
Washington that he is satisfied of the “loyalty”
of Bogus Charley. Shacknaety Jim, Hooker Jim
aal Steamboat Frank, who, having saved their
pmeioc, Ajrcaases by surrender, now propose
■probably for e gallon of whisky) to start after
Captain leak, their chief, and others of their
I44 eoofederates, and bring their heads into
tfc. Coited States camp. General Davis says he
Is so well satisfied of their "loyalty'' that he has
g >an them hones, guns and provisions for the
work He verily believes that they are sneb
remora* ieee traitors and scoundrels—such Jndss
i*cariuta to their own kith, kin and nation, that
they will capture and murder them, as they
promise to do.
And in this new interpretation of “Loyalty"
Gen. LG via follows the oonrt and the fashion
eiUbll.hed by about twelve yeard* usage. The
Bogus Caarliea and Sbacknssty Jims are not
eoofload to tbs Modocs, but were not very
•earre in the Southern States during the “late
rebellion,” and have sustained, with remarks,
ble uniformity, this modern conception of
•‘Loyalty”—that Is to say, a sodden vsnality—a
bratal aelflibnesa and canning treachery, as op.
posed to that unswerving and transparent trnth,
honor and fidelity which nsed to be nnderstood
by the term “loyalty." Tried by the new sig
nification of the term, Jndas Iscariot was the
most loyal of all the apostles, for he went over
to tbs support of tho government just as Bogus
CbsiUs and Sbackuasty Jim are doing, and in
mash the same wsy.
And experience is leaching the Northern
people that this “loyalty ” whioh has its os-
senes in tresohery to the obligations of cit-
iuntbip—tbs tlss of nsinre— the brotherhood
of rsee—the affection] due to natal soil and
to one’s own neighbors and kindred, is the
s'l snffloient qualification for every kind of
roguery known among men ! When a man is
loyal after this sort he is a fall graduate in
human depravity generally. Hence the South
ern “ loyalists,” ao called, have booome at
last very wearisome to the Northern brethren
•— reason of their rascalities ; becanse these
FJYE'en committed the folly of attempting a
ent engagement with the “loyalists,” in-
' layiug them aside at onoo after their
Yidoriot** Mone. This was uswise—it was,
0 pnt too lino n point on it,” decidedly
j^vtu. Thoae loyal men shonld all have been
'aid asray where they oonld not play false sny
mote, and the next thing in band shonld have
been to restore the word to an honest signlfl-
cation.
A Mltle Ahcml of Potash 4k Co.
A cb.pnamed IV L. Martinet, who mado tho
affidavit on wbloh Gen. Do Blano and nine oth
er gentlemen were recently arrested in Louisi
ana, for violating the infamous enforcement
set, wu forced to ncknowledgo on the trial of
these gentlemen before the Federal commis
sioner at New Orleans, the other day, that he
nude such affidavit on general principles which
led Mm to fear the negroes might meet tho
Orsnt r.rish fete, unless preventive measures
were nsed. His Information was in the form of
s letter, signed by five persons, who, when
eslltd upon, stated that they knew nothing
agiinst the prisoner, and the men mentioned in
the affidavit as having been intimidated, and
whose names, it is nnderstood, were filled in
after the afjldotit toot signed, were equally ig
norant of sny wrong on the part of Da Blanc
and his men. Martinet admitted that he had
eonsalted with Kellogg, and that Kellogg ad
vised him to make the affidavit.' This beats
Potash and his orowd; but thoy are vary apt
scholars, and if Martinet don't look sharp, ho
will loss his laurels, yet.
Signing Petitions, Etc.
Good-natured people always stand ready, on
the moment, to sign petitions withont reading
more than the first line and to write letters of
recommendation, endorsement or introdnetion
for people they know to bo at least questiona
ble, and in short to givo tho benefit of their
names and inflnenoo to everybody or anything,
unless a conclusive and overwhelming reason
why they should not do so stares them in the
face. Tbs other day, on n bet in Detroit, one
of tbeea good-natured men of high social stand
ing aigned a petition to tho Governor, praying
that he (the signer) might be hung. It is true
that the first few lines of the petition wore
about something else, but then he shonld have
read the whole document through before sign
ing it. It is always well to be a little caroful
shout signing pspsrs of any sort. A man who
underwrites a notoriously bad character may
have occasion to be ashamed of it
The Aloany Central City states that Colonel
Styles, of the Vows,, moved Its expnlsion from
the Press Association at Americas. YYe are re
quested by Colainei 8. ha say that he made no
sueh motion, and our recollection entirely agrees
with his denial. One of the editors cf thi.
paper was at Americas, and heard nothing of
the kind. Col. Styles mentioned the Central City,
among other papers, as having violated the rules
of the Association, but made no motion for its
expulsion.

The Columbus Enquirer, of Wednesday after
noon, says:
Injunction Case—On Monday Major It J
Moses filed in the Superior Court four bills of
injunction, the first being to r.strain the as
signees. Messrs. Peabody and Salisbury, from
selling King’s steam cotton mills nnder fifteen
days; and the three latter, to prevent said as
signees from nsing for common purposes cer
tain deposits claimed na trust funds, made in
King’s hank by EL Knrniker, D. L. Boberts
and J. £>. L Murphy. These cases came before
Judge Johnson during the session of the Su
perior Conrt yesterday morning, when injunc
tion was granted in the first (steam mill case)
for tb rty days, and refused in the other three.
The reason for asking an injunction preventing
the sale of the steam cotton mills, is that appli
cation may be made to the United Slates Oonrt
to seaside tho sale under whioh Mr. King holds
the title, and have the same resold for tho ben
efit of the Steam Mill Company, to whom said
property belongs, and in which company Major
Mosea was a stockholder. Also, a petition was
filed by Charles H. Williams, E q.. in behalf of
the claimants of the money realiz id from the
naio .of the oil mills, Raking that the sum of
$.1,125 38, which Mr. King had as an officer of
oonft, and subject to the order of the conrt, be
paid to’ ihe County Beoeiver. The petitioner
claims that the said sum should not have been
pntMn.the assignment made by Mr. King, bnt
was trnat property of the oonrt, and shonld have
been paid into the oonrt. Jndge Johnson an-
nonnoed that this was a case involving close
legal .points, and be would postpone the hear
ing nntil next week, to give all time to prepare.
The Son says Major Moses avows hiB deter
mination to force the estate into bankruptcy.

Wheat.—The prospect of a good wheat orop
In this State Is exceedingly gloomy, so far as we
have seen or heard. Our own personal obser
vation extends to most of tho counties in North
east‘Georgia and those along the line of the
Georgia railroad, from this eity to Atlanta. In
the first place there is less crowing thsn usual,
and secondly, most of it looks decidedly un
promising. So far as the wheat-growing region
of Georgia is oonoerned, we are folly persuaded
that ootton has been permitted to encroach too
mnch upon tho domains of this important cereal.

daybreak the mother of the child was awakened
by tho screams of her child, and discovered a

On Toosday afternoon a young man named
William Bead, employed in the dree store of
Dr. William M. Walsh, corner of Broughton
and Barnard streets, met with a very serious
accident, the result of a thoughtless and fool
ish frenk. The young man owned a pistol which
had been loaded for some time, and being una
ble to draw the load, he went into the rear of
tho store about the hour named, for the pur
pose of discharging it Possessed by some freak
or fancy, he placed the muzzle at the bnng hole
of an empty kerosene barrel and fired. The
barrel being air tight burst and flew to pieces,
one of tho staves striking yonng Bead over the
left eye, inflicting a terrible gash, and another
breaking his nose and rendering him insensible.
His wounds were dressed by Dr. Walsh, who
procured a carriage and had him conveyed to
pis home ; bnt up to the time he left the store
ho was perfectly unconscious, and is now Can-
Biderod in a precarious condition.
The same paper prints these base slanders:
The sidewalk that leads from the city to the

petrified barlow knife, a rusty corkscrew and a
beaver hat have been discovered—all evidently
relics of the pliocene period.

A Batannah correspondent of the New York

of news we have beard for a long time. If he
oonld -onlv be made fully aware of the estima

hold him, the depression of to-day wonld be

that would seize him then.

The Meriwether Chalybeate Springs are to be
put through tbs Judicial Mill, as we learn
from the following from the Griffin News:
It will be remembered that some months
sines Mr. Isaac Cbeney, of Talbot county, died
after returning from a pleasure trip to Florida,
and that he left a very large amount of property,
including the oelebrated Chalybeate Springs,
situated in Meriwether oonnty, in_ this State.
His death was unexpected, and being a stout,
hale and hearty man, he died intestate, that is,
leaving no will. A heavy suit is now pending,
the foots being about ae follows, onr informant
learning them from a prominent lawyer of
Middle Georgia. Daring his life-time, Jadge
Cheney had, by a verbal promise, given these
springs , to a Mrs. Porter, a niece of his wife,
(by whom he came in possession of the bnlk of
the estate, end his wife also being dead,) end
had repeatedly declared that he had given this
property to Mrs. F. After his death, his brother
administered on the estate, and took charge of
the assets, except the Springs, whioh were in
poaiessioB of this good lady, and which she re-
fOMd to give up, Maiming title as above stated.
A abort time since the administrator filed a bill
against Mrs. Porter, praying for the appoint
ment of a reoeiver to take charge of the estate,
end to restrain her from the nse of the proper
ly* which was presented to Jndge Buchanan,
end from the statement made to us, we presume
he granted a permanent injunction, having in
advertently, ao far as we can gather, overlooked
ereoent statute granting temporary injunctions,
and then giving the defendant notioe, end re
quiring him to show cause at a specified time
why the process should not be made permanent.
Armed with this order of the oonrt, the receiver
proceeded to the Springs and asked this lady to
acknowledge service on the bill, as it wonld save
costs, bnt she very properly declined to do so
withont consulting her attorney, Hon. George
L. Peavy, of Greensville. Judging from the
condition of affairs, if she bad complied with
this request the sheriff would have turned her
ont and pnt the receiver in possession of the
property, and she wonld have been forced
to a long and costly law suit to regain the
property, and taken the uncertain chances of
litigation for snooe6a. She at once informed
her attorney of the situation, who oalled on
Jndge Buchanan, and requested a few days time
In which to prepare and present the side of the
case represented by him, whioh waa granted,
the injunction modified temporarily, and a day
set for the hearing. After argument was had,
the Judge dissolved the injunction already
granted, and Mrs. Porter remains in possession
of the property. The administrator then com
menced suit in some other shape to get hold of
this property, by writ of ejectment perhaps,
which has been made returnable to the Supe
rior Court of Meriwether county. The court
house in Greenville has long been noted for the
fleroe legal battles decided there, bnt none have
been fought which created more interest than
this one will, as there is a vast amount of prop
erty involved, and the legatees of Judge Cheney
and those of hia deceased wife are the litigants.
That low* Tornado.
The acooun's of that great tornado In Iowa
grow In wondrousness. A correspondent of the
World says the storm started near Lancaster
and demolished that town and then advanced
northeasterly, passing to the north of Tallyrand
through the German settlement of Bader. It
approached the line of Washington county,
where it jumped a distance of about eight miles.
It swept along the ground for six or eight miles
and then disappeared in the middle of the town
ship bb suddenly as it had appeared. The fright
of the people renders them ncable to give a sat
isfactory account of the tornado. Thoae who
witnessed it saw timber, cattle, sheep, mud and
trees whirled into the air with terriflo force,
Many saved their lives by going into oellars.
Some who considered themselves safe in their
dwellings found themselves sprawliDg'on the
ground in an instant, the bouses being thrown
over by the tarnsdo. Boards and heavy timbers
were driven into the ground so firmly a9 to be
immovable. Dead horses, cattle and hogs are
visible on all sides, and chickens were fonnd
withont feathers. On the farm of John Cunning
ham S00 head of stock were killed ontright
His family went into the cellar at the approach
of the storm,bnt were lifted ont and wore thrown
on the gronnd by the wind. Mr. Davids, of the
next farm east of Cunningham’s, was killed.
Mr. Hansel), who was with him at the time, re
ceived injuries from which he died Friday. All
the clothing was torn from his person. The
stamps of trees over which the cyolone passed
have the appearance of being cawed off clean
and smoothly. A echool house, containing the
teacher and twenty pupils, was torn to pieces.
The daughter of Henry Brthnall was carried a
quarter of a mile, where her mangled body was
found almost nude. Miss Smith and six schol
ars were badly injured. Mad was blown with
snob foroe in their faces as to leave the appear
ance of tattooing with India ink, and it can
not be washed ont. Mrs. Walters was instant-
killed near the school-house. Sbo had
twin babies in her arms when found, one of
which died from injnries received on Thurday,
while tho other escaped unhurt. Two others
of Mrs. Walter’s children, who were in the
school-house at the time, were fatally injured.
Orchards were completely destroyed. A man
named Baker, who was drivings team of mules,
saw the storm approaching and took refage
nnder a hedge, from whence, man, wogon, and
team were taken np and oarried a quarter of a
mile into the fields. Baker escaped uninjured.
Pieces of hail found weighed seven ounceB, and
were nine inches in circumference, and some
still larger are reported having been found. A
fleck cf 1.1 ) »heep hnd.iied together were taken
np by the Rtorm, carried half a mile, and when
they strnck the earth all bnt forty were actually
torn to fragments and scattered along the ronte
of the cyolone. Very little definite informa
tion has been received from Keokuk county, bnt
it is known that Mrs. Campbell, Mrs. Endle-
berger, and three children were killed. The
leas of property is estimated at $100,000.

General Phil Coolt at Xew Orleans.
General Phil Cook, Congressmen elect from
the 3d district cf this State, went on the late
Congressional excursion from Si. Louis to Texas-
On the excursion down the river at New Or
leans, which had for Us object the advancement
of the Fort St. Phillip canal, to give an outlet
to the commerce of New Orleans, General Cook
is reported by the Pioaynue as Epeskingas fol
lows:
The interests of New Orleacs put forward and
advocated by her representatives in St. Louis,
had made a deep impression on his mind. He
had listened to them with great interest, bnt
conld form no adequate idea of the embarrass
ments which New Orleans suffered from having
the months of tho Mississippi blockaded by
mnd lumps.
Ho wS3 glsd that he had seen these for him
self. and could, therefore, defend this scheme
from his own personal knowledge of the con
templated enterprise. He was informed by
several persons that the remains of thirty ves
sels wrecked at the month of the Mississippi
could be seen near the bar. That the national
government would look upon this enterprise
with favor he had not the slightest doubt. The
arts of war had been laid aside, and the arts of
peace and commercial prosperity were now oc
cupying the attention of the nation, as they
netted together different portions of the Union
disintegrated by the late civil war. It was time
the hostility engendered in the hearts of men
by the late civil contest should be wiped ont by
a unanimity of interest for the commercial in
terest of this great nation. The speaker then
recounted one little incident which occurred in
one of the small towns in Texas, lying on tharail-
road running from St. Louis to the above Stats.
Stopping at this place for a few moments, he in
quired at the station from a crowd standing there
if there were any Georgians in the town? A
stalwart fellow stepped forth and answered that
Georgia was his native State. He pointed to
two neat little cottages, at no great distance
from the depot, remarking that one was his and
the other belonged to a native of Illinois, who
had been in the Union army and fonght against
him at the battle of Shiloh; “but we era the
best of friends, and only look back to the scenes
of the war as disagreeable incidents of the
past.” In s word, gentlemen, these two men
had shaken hands across the bloody chasm and
forgotten the cast, as every one of ns, represen
tatives of different sections, shonld do. The
speaker closed his remarks by calling the atten-
tention of the Congressmen present to a canal
in his Stato which he wanted pat through.

on the trail of Captain Jack. The proposition
made by them is to kill him or capture him with
the reat of his band. Gen. Davis is satisfied of
their loyalty. [And indeed they furnish the best
evidence of the kind of loyalty in fashion, for
they have saved their hides by selling out their

The Feeling in Paris.
A Paris correspondent cf the New York
World, telegraphing that paper on the 25th Bays:
“There is now prevalent a feeling of intense
though not ho;f_v exsirement throughout this
oity, because of the election of Marshal Mao-
Mahon to the Pre-idoncy of the republic of
Franca in place of President Thiers. With the
Monarchists there is a deep yet undemonstra
tive joy, for they view the election of Marshal
MacMihon and his acoeptanoe of the position
as fixing the preliminary conditions in an all-
important movement towards the early accom
plishment of their moot earnest desire. With
the Bepublicsns the feeling is of bitterness and
and scarcely concealed exss(fcration, for in the
election of MacHahon they foresee a military
detpotism, MacYIahon holding entire control of
the army, and, they feel assured, not at all
warmly isolined to nse it for the maintenance
of the republic. The Bepnblioan leaders, how
ever, strongly disoounteDanoe any resistance at
present to the present dominant oondition. Bely
npon it Paris has never before been so intense
ly excited atd remained on its surface so appa
rently calm.
Selling a Widow, and what came of it.
A novel spectacle was recently witnessed in
Detroit, Michigan. Abont a fortnight sinoe a
widow named Gathner met an acquaintance
on the street and said that she was in a des
titute condition and Isd no means of keeping
starvation and death from her door. The
gentleman then addressed looked at the wo
man a moment end replied that she was
yonng and good looking enough to marry
again. To this Mrs. Gathner answered that
she had no objection to each an arrangement,
but she had thus far been nnable to find a
husband. “I’ll sell yon at auction,” replied
the gentleman, “and the only proviso shall
be that tho highest bidder shall court you for
a week in order that you may know him.”
The woman consented, and the sale was an
nounced. The auctioneer stated to the orowd
which assembled that he had known tho
woman for years, and that he knew her to be
industrious and of good character, and then he
opened the sale. Bidding was lively, and every,
body in a great humor. In the crowd was an
old batchelor named Joslyn, and he was tho only
one who took the joke as a real fast. He jumped
the bidding from forty-three cents to five dol
lars, and then raised it to eight dollars. The
auctioneer celled on that figure, and the widow
was knocked down. Joslyn handed her the
money, agreed to the proviso, and left the
crowd, none of wbcm had a thought that a mar
riage wonld take place. One did take plnoe,
however, after the terms of tho proviso had been
faithfully carried ont. Abd while it is quite
certain that Joslyn has found a good helpmeet,
the bridegroom’e friends eay that he is sober,
steady, good-tempered and well off.
