THE 6KOBGU PKESI.
Thz Elberton hogs made tbit town grin by
the wholesale last Monday- They eeptured a
lot of whieky-eoaked cherries, and their antics
were so very natural that some of the “ boys

pursuant to adjournment in April. The plant

Wz quote these crop Hems from the Albany
News of Friday:
Obops along this railroad between this oity
ThomasviUe are in better oonditiou than they
have been for yeeni, at this season. The oat
crop has yielded abundantly in that section.
Co BN and Cotton—Thz Pxoenors.—The re-
oeot and oontinued heavy rains had quite a
seriona effeot upon the planting interests of this
section, but not so aerioue aa to earns appre
hensions of a orop failure. Grass took advan
tage of the wet spell, and ran far abesd, as it
was impossible to plough exoept on the high
lands, but tha principal sufferer U ootton—that
being young and toedar. Corn is “old in the
eanse,” ani is boomiog ahead magnificently ;
and the probability is that we are to have a
finer oom crop this year rb«» we've had any

A “boy in blue” who attempted to desert from

The Nawnan Herald gets away with a St.

BzntBBtNa to the rumor mentioned In the
Chronicle and Sentinel, that Mr. Wadley would
soon resign, orhsd resigned thefoffioe of Presi
dent of the Central road, the Savannah Adver
tiser and Bepubiiean says:
We have authority for saying that the inmor
alinded to in the above artiole is entirely with
out fonndotion, nor can we learn of any so-
oalled difference of opiclon. Mr. Wadley is in
fall scoord with the board of directors, and the
latter have just cause to plaoe entire oonfideoae

How the system of County Commissioners
has worked in Pike oounty as to money matters
may be learned from the following from the
Griffin News. It says:
Puce County Affaies —In 1870 when oounty
commissioners were appointed for Pike, Judge
Harper, then its effioient Ordinary, turned over
to them $C,55i, and ever since its treasury has
had plenty of money in it. These commission
ers have within the past year paid ont $2,COO
for a poor farm, thereby greatly reduoing the
pauper list in the oounty. They reeently paid
$1,400 for all their small-pox expenses, and
still have a lsrge fund on hand. This is en-
oonraging news, and speaks well for the neces
sity of suoh commissioners in every county.
Ms. Damson Heath, for fifty years a citizen,
of Batts oounty, was found dead in his bed lest
Sunday morning—supposed from apoplexy.
We find the following ia the Savannah Adver

go free. When-I was at liberty I bad plenty of
friends, or supposed them to be friends ; when
I got into trouble they forsook yds. I have no
friends now. God is my only friend now, I
reckon.' I wish to oorreot the statement made
in a oity paper, that when Fry and others es-
oaped from the old jail “I went and stood in
the door, and then vent book.” I did not go
out, though I oould have done so.
At 25 minutes past 2 o’clock, O’Neal sat down
on the benoh. At half put two o’elook, O’Neal
rooe up, and Sheriff Perkerson and Deputy
Sheriff AJreen-proceeded to pinion his hands
behind him. He remarked to them, “ Don’t tie
it too tight.” O'Neal exhibited sot the least
sign.of trepidation or weakness. Not a muscle
moved. The winding sheet wu no it plaoed on
him, and tied, his slippers removed, feet tied,
and he placed underneath the gallows. Here
the fatal knot wu plaoed around his neck. He
betrayed no feu. Iu answer to the question
propounded by Sheriff Perkerson, u to whether
the knot wu uuoomfortable, he. remarked:
“ No; bnt will soon be.” As the knot wu be
ing adjusted, O'Neal had his eyes closed, and
appeared to be in prayer. He oalled upon the
Sheriff to “ wait a minute.” This halt wu
oalled for the purpose of uttering his lut
words. O'Neal sard, with emphasis: “lam
not guilty of the murder of Little. I never in
tended to kill him. If he had let me alone and
never assaulted me, I sever would have killed
him. I am arraigned here tor aoting in self-
defense. Either one of Little and hia friends
wu able to handle me by himself. I wu at
tending to my own business. I believe that
Gad has had mere; ou me. . I believe that God
has forgiven my situ. I hope to meet you all
in Heaven, if it is God’s will.” Ho requested
Sheriff Perkerson to ont the rope® off of his
body after he wu dud, and rend his body to
Conyers for interment. The vhite cap wu
plaoed over O'Neal’s hesd, when he began pray
ing—“Great God, have mercy on me. Merci
ful God, reve my real.” The last words he ot
tered were, “Obi God I” Just then the fatal
trigger wu polled, the platform parted In the
centre, and with a terrible thud the body of
O'Neal fell about six feet, the feet of the pris
oner reaohing within a few inches of the ground.

wu sprung. Scarcely three minutes had etapsod
when his feet and hands moved convulsively
and then relaxed. Drs. John M. Johnson and
J. P. Logan, who were appointed by Judge
Hopkins to determine when death supervened,
examined the body of O'NeaL Eight minutes
after the fall there wu a alight putae, and the
heart wu beating; at ten urinates there wu
no pnlution or motion of the heart, and at
thirteen minntea O’Neal wu prononnoed dead.
The rope was ent and the body taken down and
itaoed on a vide board and prepared for plaolog

and while not oostl; was not a ohesp affair.
There wu a heavy pressure to get in. As high

Stokes* New Trial.
We have nothing to uy, remarks the World,
to the derision of the Court of Appeals in the
ease or Stokes. It is not for taymen to discuss
questions of law with the benoh whioh has pow
er to decide them, and no one but hes confi
dence oomplete in a criticism of an inferior
oonrt, ottered by suoh judges u Church, Gro
ver and Rapello. But we have this to say, as
matter of pnblio policy and of j retire: that
the spectacle of Stokes still retried, In the eyes
of the taw, for an aot committed a year and a
halt ago, is a mockery of justice and a scandal
upon our jorispiadenoe. The faot of the kill
ing of Fisk by Stokes hss a'l along been admit
ted. The question wav only whether that kill
ing was murder. And that qnr ition is u far
off now from a legal settlement u on the day
when Fisk was buried.
It has become the custom to say that punish
ment should be merely exemplary, and not
vindiotive. If that is true, it seems to ui that
the execution of Stokes after wbat hu already
happened in his one wuold be of scarcity any
value to sooiety rt an exrmple. The men who
most need suoh an example are the men upon
whom the example of punishment two years after
the faot would have no deterring effeot. The few
of them who are ca; able of connecting a retri
bution so long delayed with the crimes whioh
brought it on would oheiish hopes that they
would dear all the difficulties in their course to
freedom whioh Btokee so nearly cleared. StokeB
hu had two trials a'ready. The first was vitiated
by a failure to reach the verdiot. The verdiot
in the seoond hu been nul'lfied. And Stokes
stands now where he stood on the day be killed
Fisk—in the position of rn untried culprit. We
say again that there Is a radloal wrong in a sys
tem which taker eighteen months, three juries,
and a dozen oourta to find out whether a man
in killing another has committed murder.
Gambetta—How Ha Looks.
Edmund Yates' lut letter is from Paris.
From it we extract this pen ploture of the
above noted Frenchman:
Who is this fat, gross man of middle height,
with reddish-brown complexion and decidedly
red noae, with a queer louche or oock-eye,
which gives him a ha'f jovlal, half-sinister ex
pression—this man with the early-brimmed,
greree-stained hat, tha tortoise-shell double eye
glass hanging loose round his neok, the shining
coat and the fall trousers, into the pockets ef
whioh bis hands are throat np to the wrists ?
This is Leon Gambetta, the terror of the Bight,
the hope of the Left, the one man who is sup-
pored to be able to establish * real republio,
untainted by Orieanism, Bonapartism or priest
craft in Franoe.
Partisan Iebihoemtt.—What thorough-faced
Badioal partisans are capable of is Illustrated by
the proceedings of the reoent Ohio State Bepnb-
Iiean Convention. That grave body in one of
its resolutions says:
We condemn without reserve the voting for
or reoeiving of increased pay for servioea al
ready rendered, and do mend that the provisions
of the late aot of Congress by whioh the salaries
were inoreased should bo promptly and uncon
ditionally repealed.
And is another resolution It also declares as
follows: •
Seoond—We reaffirm onr confidence in Presi
dent Grant, and in the wisdem, integrity and
snooens of the administration of his high offioe.
Now the approval of President Grant mide
the increased psy bill a taw, and he is rereiving
$25,000 a year in oonaeqaenoe of his assent to
it. Thus we have the Ohio Convention condemn
ing Congress and approving Grant, while both
are guilty of the suae sot.
Chattanooga, we see, is going heavily into *
4th of July jabilm by making it the occasion of
tha Seoond Animal Parade of the Oity Fire De
partment. The programme displayed in two
columns of the Times contemplates a Grand
yareMng Bsviaw of the Ancient and Horrible
Artillerie—a procession—picnic in shady bow
ers, foot raring, walking matoh, sack raring,
jumping, a wheel-harrow rare and small beer
and lemonade. The American Eagle will be
there but not allowed to spread his wings. There
will be no speeches.

General Sherman on tbe Modoc*.
New Yobe, Jane 14—General Sherman bad
a oonvers-ition with s reporter lest evening, and
ta made to say that General Davis, concerning
bis indiotment of Captain Jaak and prepara
tions for hanging him and some of his associ
ates: If tbe statement is oorreot, there is no
doubt that Genera] Davis must have exaeedsd
his daty, and be would have been responsible
tor his sots. He should be gnidrd by military
rules and taw. We all know 'hey are murder,
era. The President himself says they are mur
derers, and bad General Davis shot them while
they were being pnrsned, I do not think he
would have exoeeded his daty. He did not do
this, and oonld not afterwards shoot them in
oold blood.
Gen. Davis’ report to Gen. Sobofleld, Gen.
Sherman said, may d ffer from that pnblisbed
in the papers. Davis is too experienced an ot-
fioer to do anything that wonld bring odium
upon the army or lay bimself open to a military
court-martial, for exoeedtng bis duty Cl an of
ficer. Tbe General thicks there wiU be no
difficulty about disposing of the Modoos under
arreit. Three found guilty of murder will be
hangrd or shot, and if it is proved that there
was an agreement for general uprising among
the tribes, others will reoelve the same punish
ment os a warning to the Indians. He remarked,
however, that it was a pity that the guilty Mo-
does were not shot at first Then sit this com
mission business and expense wonld have been
avoided.
As to the killing already of a few of the pris
oners, Sherman thonght those who committed
the deed are low biaokgnards and murderers,
who have nothing whatever to do with tho army.
