The Atlanta Han of Scnday baa tbe following
correction of a statement recently made
We fell into an error yesterday In onr brief
rcluwnoe to the quota of arms now dne the
H'Ste of Georgia, woich we hasten to oorreoh
An sot passed by Congrees in March tart does
provide for the distribution of arms to anoh
hlate« a. did not, from the year 1802 to tbe
year 1869, receive the same—"provided, that in
the organization and equipment of military
ooiuparue. and organizations with aaid arm., no
discrimination ahaii ba made between said oom-
panies and organizationa on eoooant of race,
color, or former eonditlon of servitude." Gopiee
of the act of Congrees have been sent to Gov
ernors of the Htatee referred to above, and they
bavo also been notified by the United Slates
n. tf „f Or,lnsr.ee that all “ requisitions most
be accompanied by a statement, showing the
character of tbe military organizations to be
supplied, U.at iho War Ix-parlment may be ad
visod as to the fnlfillment of tbe oondition pro
vided in the act.” Tho Federal Government
baa the right, of conrae, to prescribe tbe terms
npon which arms and aocontrementa famished
by itself ih .11 be disiribated; jtul as the sever
al Htatee have the rlghttodeoide, each foriteelf,
whether ttn-ywlll apply ror the arms, acoordlng
as those terms may or may not be satisfactory.
Ii r< mains to be seen wheiher the (I ivernors of
the Htales entitled to the arms will make appU
cation for them at all. Oor own Btate Legii*
lalnre, for examplo, has prtacrlbed one rate of
distribution, while the act of Congress lays
down another and a different rnle. We were
wrong, therefore. In saying that “ upon notifl
cation from military companies organising aa
to what kind of arms are doalred, tbe Governor
will make rrqnleition therefor after the first
day of July." Hhonld Governor Smith decide
to make application for the arms, and ahonld
the War I) -par in ,nt honor his riqoisition, dne
notice of the fact will be given to all interested.

Tils Thoma9ton Ilerald has the following
under iho fnnny heading of “Longevity of Life
in Central Georgia
Wr. venture tbe assertion, that in no part of
the l imed Slates can be Lined as many old
persons as in Central and Northern Georgia.
In this iavne of the Herald will be. found the
names of several very old persona,' who have
recently died. Ono near NewnRn was lit
years old, noo on Iho farm of A. H. Stephens
85 years of age.- A few weeks ago we published
the death of an old man, who resided not far
from Thomaston, 91 yoars of ago. In the year
1870, an old conplo died in this connty; the
man, wo understand, waa 103 snd his wifo 100
years old. We noticed on our streets a few
days ninoo, Mr. Henry Dntts, who is 93 years of
age. A few miles above this town lives Mr.
Thomas Greene, aged 83 or 84. This gentle
man often gets to Thomaston before onr mer
chants get from (heir breakfanl. Nothing is
more common than to meet active men from
75 to 80 years of ego In this psrt of the State.
A rin* at Atlanta on Saturday afternoon
destroyed a dwelling bonso on Pryor street,
owned by Mrs. H. M. Boltotford, and oconpied
by City Engineer, Diek Bass. The latter aaved
his fnrnitnre, and thore was $1,200 insnrance
on Iho house, which was valuod nt $1,G00.
Wa find the following highly seasoned morsol
of local news in tho Savannah Advertiser, of
Saturday:
Hrvtai.itt—A Fznren has Hu Son, a Bor or
Tet Yeans, Chained ron Tnnoc Months.—It
rarely hzppons in a community Ilko ours that
we have to rooord each brutal and InhumaD
treatment of a sod, a boy of only ten yenrs of
age, by hie father, as that which came io notice
yoaurday. The foots as we gleaned them from
perfectly reliable sonroes are as follows: Infor
mation was conveyed to his honor Mayor Acder.
son throngh oflicialHoroesthat Mr. W. G. York,
who keeps tho “Oonrt-hoase BAloon,” ooruer of
Ball street and Broughton street lane, had his
little son chained in a room of his dwelling over
the bar room, and that he bod been kept tn this
state of confinement for three months past.
Mayor Anderson sent a detective to the place to
asoertatn the troth of tho statement, who, npon
hie r<-tara confirmed the report. Mr. York then
oalled npon tho Mayor, and made his own state
ment, whioh was to tho effeot that tbe boy had
gtven him a great deal of trouble; that ever
since he was four years old bo had been ad-
dloted to stealing, and, from lime to time, htd
robbed him of a considerable amount of money
and other things of value; that he had repost-
cdly punished him, sometimes quite severely,
but without effeot. Mr. York acknowledged
that he had, as a last resort, put a chain npon
the boy'a foot, fastening the other end in
auoh a manner as to keep him oloeely
confined. He requested Mayor Anderson, if
possible, to aeenre a position on some revenuo
ontter where he might put tbe boy, In the hope
of keeping him from his vloions and immoral
practices, get him away from all association
with other boys, and, perhaps, reclaim him.
Yesterday the Mayor determined to visit the
plaoewharo the boy was said to be confined,
and examine for himself tbe exact condition of
affatia. Upon enteiing the room a siokening
and disgusting sight, even worse than hsd been
represented, met bis astonished gaze. There, in
a room ten by twelve feet in size, stood theyonlh-
fat vlotim of a father’s rage. Tbe boy, aa we
have said, a mere child of ten years, bearing
footsteps attempted to oonceal himself behind
the door, bnt the ohain, only three or four feet
lu length, prevented his getting Tory far from
tha spot. He was perfectly node, with the ex-
oeptlon of an old filthy jacket whloh was thrown
aronod his shoulders. His person was in s
filthy oondition, and the poor boy looked the
very imige of a condemned criminal. His right
fo.it. around which the otiaiu had been locked
for three long mouths, bore the maiks of the
iron whloh had worn into the akin. The
boy waa ohaiued to the iron leg of a aewing
machine, which was screwed into tbe floor.
The sight was truly revolting to a humane man,
and aotnally horrifying to a father. Major An-
demon left the plaee in disgust, aud immediate
ly dispatched a special policeman to bring the
boy away. Upon the arrival of tho officer Mr.
York was not tn, and after waiting a short time
he unfastened tbe ohain, and helping the boy
put on his clothes, led him ont of his prison.
He look him to (ho police barracks where, Ister
in the dsy, s representative of this piper called
to see him, and, if possible, bare some conver
sation with him. Throngh the kindness of the
Mayor and Chief of Police, we were enabled to
accomplish onr purpose. The little boy was
brought into the room snd a few questions pro
pounded to him. He did uot seem disposed to
tie communicative, and appeared embarrassed
by the circumstances. However, he stated that
he had been chained by hia father in the con
dition above stated aluoe about two weeks before
8h Patrick's day, which would be about the 3d
of March; that hia father ohaiued him became
he atole, which he did not protend to deny; that
he bad boon in tba habit of stealing since he
.wab very small. He also stated that he waa
born in Oonnectioat. and that hia mother
died when be waa ‘Tittle.” Upon being in
terrogated as to -the largest amount of money
he ever sto'e at one time, he replied, with
out hesitation, “Seven dollars," which ho
spent for candy, dividing it with bis playmates
Be aaid, also, that he had enough to eat and
water to drink daring hia imprisonment, exoept
at one time, when the girl emp.oyed in the he use
failed to attend properly to his wants. By
some means this foci waa known to some of bis
playmates, and lhay olimbed np to tha window
and supplied him with bread aud cheese. In
appoaranoe, the boy, wboae name ia William, is
rather unprepossessing and wicked looking. He
ia tolerably well grown for hie age; has dark
hair and eyes, which are never fixed for any
time on aa objeo*. Hia forehead ia quite low
and stamped with a sinister frown. His an
• wen to questions were low sad apparently
unwillingly wrung from him. Evidently he is
a boy of aril inclinations, which, if not curbed
In time, will lead to direful results. Even in
his tender age he appears to be hardened in
vice, which, however, may be the result of an
innate resentment to the cruel treatment which
be has received.
The same paper of Sunday takes some of the
'‘horror” out of the above reoited facts by pub
lishing affidavits from parties who know tha faota
to the effect that the boy is a most unmitigated
yoang villain, and that his father oould manage
him in no other way. They also eertify that
the resson he wss naked when found waa that
he waa about to be bathed.

Tbe Chronlole and Sentinel, of Sunday, says
Tna Gzomoia "P. 0. A.”—A meeting of “the
Oeorgfa Sooiety for the Prevention of Crnelty
to Animals” waa bald yesterday, at the rooms of
tbe Sooiety, corner of Broad and Campbell
streets. Among other hnainees a resolution of
thanks to Mr. Bergb, the great humanitarian
for a seal presented by him to the Society, was
adopted, on motioD of Mr. Dalch.r; sad a
committee was appointed, on motion of Mr.
Lyons, to arrange for a public meeting in this
oily, at which the Sooiety would, by addresses,
reports, and so on, make known to our citizens
generally the objects, hopes, soope and pnrpo-
eea of tbe association. On motion of Iter. Dr.
Irvine, the livery stable keepers of Angnsta
were invited to beoome members of the So
ciety ; and, on motion of Mr. K ng, the
Society established a roll of merit for aneb
persons as reoelva the thanks of tbe Asso
ciation. Messrs. A. L. Dortic and G. S.
nookay. Dr. Wm. E. Deariog and Miaa Willie
Daniel were elated members, and the Society
determined to bold regular meetings on the first
and third Monday of each month hereafter,
beginning with Monday next. A Urge amonnt
of other boaineaa waa transacted, and from tbe
vigor of its operations, the Society bids fair to
beoome a power. Ons item in the proceedings
which we mnst not omit was the presentation
of a silver medal to Mr. MIohael Morris, of
Richmond Fsotory, for an aot of humane daring
in behalf of a poor, suffering little animal,
whloh would have perished miserably bnt for
his resolution and kindness.
