IIvs Oommiltoe of that Board at their meeting
on tbo 14th nlL, carried ont tbe resolution and
opened the subscription. This notion is the
more important when it la remembered that tbe
experience of the large companies transacting
ths builness of fire insurance in the United
Siaiet ihowa that the proportion of loss by fire
•ttribnted to the above causes la not lesa than
JS par oenL of the whole, or a lost to the oonn-

ComnsTixa upon s letter written by the ex-
Ysdersl Brigadier Stone, wbloh we published
°o Bnnday, to the effect that Colombia was
burned by irresponsible persons, Mr. Isaso
B. Molar, of Louisville, wants Stone to tell him,
Boise.' how it was if this be true that at a signal
of two rockets sent np from the State-house
ground, at the dead hoar of two in tho mom-
leg, the fiendish work osaaed as If by magic,
1 >11 itie devils then in the city returned to
camp? Will he farther tell ui, since he knows
■ ' i l l. h, why II WAS, if those in oouimand were
desirous of preserving order, that, when a gen
eral officer was appealed to to pat a stop to note
of the moat fearful brutality being perpetrated
ter his very eyes, he replied, “I have nothing

In an artiste upon this subject the Nashville
Union gives the following foots and figures:
Tbe writer is old enough to remember when
the.-e was probably not a city in th# Middle
Bute# that bad a municipal, or corporation
debt; now, one oan hardly find a town of ten
thousand inhabitants that baa not tried to get
:..-h t v borrowing money. It is amazing that
A generation so fond of money should not learu
» :'.ie better how to keep it as well as how to
write ft, and ran headlong into debt. Exeln-
« ve of bullion, our importations in fonr yean
bare been aa follows:
1870 $481,182,058
1871 7. 573,111.099
187*.. 655,962,575
1873 (estimated) - 800,000,000

A people who oonld buy so muoh in fonr

easily pay a debt of $2,500,000,000 in eight
years by ths simple practice of docent economy.
A xoniBLx will was that left by the late Dad-
ley P. Uodgara, of Salem, Massachusetts.

the "Salem Fraternity,” tbs Inoome to be used

Tbe traveling correspondent of the Tea
oaam aan Msaenoxa, aa our witty friend
"Progress” lores fo oan him, spent the pant
Sabbath to the town of Foxsyth, the eounty-
aeat of Monroe, one of tbe beet conn tie# in the
Bute. We wonhipped with the little band of
"Predeattoariana,” mi Mr.de Graffenreid styles
tbe Presbyterian p.-.-mjaaion, and enjoyed the
sermon txoeedlngly. The text was drawn from
Hebrews 4th chapter and 9th verse—"Thse
maineth therefore a rest to the people of God.
Thla was a mote comforting theme, and preg
nant with hop* to the Christian in thle i'fe of
turmoil and nnrert, where on* trial only sno-
oeeda another, and even tho fruition of earthly
ambition is bwi dost and ashes on the lips of
tbe successful aspirant.
The sermon elicited many tears from those
who bad tatted of the emptiness of life’s joys,
while 1'; lightened tbe burden of the many pil-
grlms who are struggling on In the straight and
narrow path whloh leads to the gates of the oel-
estial otty. Bat we will not reproduoe It on
this “week day.”
From the elder Mr. Sharp, and his gallant
son, Cyrus, who wears aa empty sleeve, OoL
Pinckard, Dr. Koddy, Mr. Pye, our boat of the
Hotel, end many others of the hoaplteblo end
noble people of Forayth, the writer is under
lasting obligations for genial acts of oonrtesy
and hospitality. Pleasant, too, and not soon to
bo forgotten, was tbe acquaintance formed with
diver* devout and pretty girls, who are "pre
destinated” to make as many fortunate fellows
supremely happy. It was Snndiy, and our
“■Iter ego,” always within bow shot, ren
dered It impossible, if bla “old Adam” bad
prompted, for thla deponent to be particularly
demonstrative to these "lovely creatures." Bat
If It bo time “a thing of beanty is enjoyed for
ever,” then they will ever retain a place In his
remembranoe.
WOSBOB OjU.VTT
was laid off in 1821, during the Presidency of
Mr. Monroe. lu honor to him the best portion
of the reoently acquired territory received his
name. Perhaps no portion of tho South to Its
primeval state waa mare fertile and beautiful.
The soil waa riob, the forest growth luxuriant
and varied, the landscape agreeably diversified
with hill and valley, and plentifully watered
with parting streams and gnahing springs of the
purest water. It is not surprising, therefore,
that population set in like a tidal wave, and
soon thla new Canaan was rescued from the
wilderness and became the abode of wealth, re
finement and intelligence. The area of Monroe
then embraoed several oonn ties and f motions of
oonntiea, whloh have ainoe been sabdividid.
As an instanoe of the esteem in whloh Mon
roe lands were held, after Pike was set off from
It, an old eltizsn informed ns that jost over tbe
line and separated by an invisible boundary
only, the price of lota in the old, exoeeded by
many fold that in the new oounty. So muoh
for fanoy. And despite the abuse of mother
earth under tbe slave regime, the utter negleot
of rotation in crops, the absence of hillaido
ditehlng and judieious cultivation, this magnifi
cent region still retains it* proud prestige as one
of the banner eounties of Georgia.
Under the free use of commercial manures
and the diminished acreage of crops, better
oulture, etc., the ovor taxed soil is now rapidly
recuperating, and bids fair again to resume its
virgin fertility.
Many distinguished men have been reared In
Mon(oa, or selected that favored spot os their
abode. Among the number, Hon. John A.
Outhbert, a member of the United States Sen
ate, and a native of Liberty county, and several
j arista of note. Mr. Trlppe, one of the present
members of tho Supreme Court, wav born and
reared In Monroe.
Foreylh exhibits healthy signs of improve
ment, in the number of anbstantlal buildings in
oonrse of ereotion. That pnblio Spirited citizen
Mr. Pye, nothing daunted by his losses from tho
fiery element, is oonalracllng a commodious
hotel of brlek, which will give quite an impetus
to the growth of the village. Famed for its
salubrity, many invalids en route and returning
from Indian Spring, or visitors from the sea
board, may be inJnoed to tarry a season tbore,
if assured of being made oomfortable. Tbe
Female College under the auspices of Mr. As-
bury, Is also in a moat flourishing condition.
Wo heard the statement made by one who
ought to know, that at a general election some
years since, Monroe cast tho largest white vote
of any oonnty iu ths State. She is still popu
lous and wealthy, and the majority of her peo
ple are good livers, and well to do in the world.
tux oaowixo cnors,
both of oorn and cotton, are luxuriant and prom
ising. Ths formor, it Is said, is the fiaest
known in this region for a long series of years.
The stands of ootton, too, are regular; and the
weed generally “chopped ont," and thrifty.
Guano has dene wanders both for grass and
ootton, thongh wo Btw few fields that were not
comparatively clean and in good order. On
the whole the planters of Monroe hare little to
oomplaln of, and the repeated rains are just
what their thirsty red soil craves. Unless a
sudden drought sets In the yield of cereals will
be nnpreoented. We treat the latter rain will
not be withheld from them.
The Colton caterpillar.
We desire to attreot tbe parlionlar attention
of readers to tho very suggestive article of oar
correspondent B. on the snbjeot of the ootton
caterpillar, and the best mode of counteracting
and preventing its ravages. It is oertainiy not
complimentary to the intelligence or the activity
of tbe Southern mind that wo know so little in
relation to tbo laws governing the generation
and nprodnotion ef these destructive peats;
and the faota and suggestions of our correspon
dent deserve prompt and serious attention.
And wo would say In reference to his remarks
upon tbe wanton destruction of the prloelem
and most beautiful ornament of Southern Bund
Life—the staging birds—Nature's own most
bene Aoent and effectual provision against axoeas
of insect life, let the Planter's Associations
everywhere in Georgia eoms up to the help of
the press on this and kindred subjects, and let
ns see whether it bo not poesible to draw the
attention of the Georgia Legislature to matters
of praatioal importance to the' great material
interests of the State. Whether we oan’t have
laws to protect private land] from tresspass—to
protoot game from destruction in the seasons of
breeding—to protect the singing birds from
massacre—to protect the sheep from worthless
ours, and to protect orops and woodlands from
robbery.

The judgment pronounced by the Supreme
Court of the Federal Government may hive

Cgyihgtox has had a pretty severe attack of

Tux Brusevtick Lukrzb Tradz—Heatt In-
cnxAsx.—Under this head the Appeal aaya:
As an evidenoe of the wonderful Increase of
thla trade in oar oity, we submit the following
comparative statements of tho lumber ship
ments daring the months of March, April and
May of the years 1872 and 1873—the figures
being famished ns by the oiever and accommo
dating Collector of Customs of the Distriot of
Brunswick. Without commenting at length on
this wonderful inoreaae of solid and legitimate
buslncas, wo confidently express the opinion
that another twelve months will show even a
greater inoreaae in this business than was
abowD daring the past three months. Bat to
the facte and figures as they appear: Daring
three month* endtog May 31, 1872, there waa
shipped 1,480.317 feet foreign, 3,110,000 feet
ooastwise, making a total of 4,500,347 feet
Daring the three some months ending May 31,
1873, there was shipped 5,035,454 feet foreign,
and 4,876 000 feet ooastwise, making a total of
9,911,454 feet These figures show an increase
of 5,815,107 feet or over one hundred and fteerv-
ty per cent. All branches of trade In the elty
has experienced the benefit of this magnificent
inerease of solid business, and developed in
equal ratio. We are oonfident that oar port
will Bhip daring the year 1873 from forty to
fifty million feet of manufactured lumber.
Tux Columbus Sun of Satoidiy has th* fol

And the Enqnirer, of Sunday, these:
Bloodt Arraar.—A difflonlty oooorred near
tbe southwestern depot yesterday between a
white yonth name 1 John Doras, and a black boy
called John Royals. In the melee the latter
strack the former with a rook and cut him in
the back with a knife, partially severing one of
his riba. The black boy ires arrested and taken
to the lock np. John Doras (white) is tbe same
youth who came near being killed while aotiDg
fireman in an accident on the Mobile and Girard
Railroad a year or two ago.
Struck bz Liobtsixo—Almost a Disastrous
Coxrx.AiiBATiox—All thx Cowraxils Olt.—
Daring the heavy rain between twelve and one
o’clock, yesterday, the handsome two-story
brick residence of Mr. Joeeph Hanserd, on
Broad street, above the Chattahoochee National
Rink, was struck by lightning and fired upon
the northern section of the roof. The Same*
made considerable progress between the oeiiing
and roof before being discovered. When dis
covered, about one o'clock, the fire alarm waa
sounded, tho department rallied promptly, and
the fire was put ont in a few minute*. The dam
age to the roof and plastering waa oonaiderabla.
Several of tho upper rooms having beenflioded,
of coarse furniture, beding and the handsomely
painted walls, all reoeived no little ^damage.
Total damages all reaob, we suppose,* $2,000.
The building waa insured for $12,500. Thiahand-
residenoe, perhaps the fineet in the city,was
in 1836-35 for Judge Eli S. Shorter, in
whose family its possession remained until some
three or fonr years since, when it waa purchased
from Dr. rrqhart by the preaent oocnpaot, who
has since vastly improved both the residence
and its grounds.

A LXTTXB from Madison to the same paper
dated Jane 13!b, has tbe following:
Last evening, about 5 o’clock, 3} miles from

were struck by lightning. The fiaid passed on
to the former’s left shoulder and so on down the
left aide, burning off a good portion of hie ooet
and pant*. Tbe latter bad one of his ears
badly burned, ard hie shoulder* and back badly
scorched. At the time it occurred they were
■tending under a larga pine tree. Both were
for a time insensible, and then, by crawling
part of the way, snooeeded in reaching their
home, half a mile distant.
Thx Atlanta Herald of Sunday says between
six and seven hundred thou*and dollars worth
of the new eight per cent. Georgia bunds have
been soML It also supposes that the Agricul
tural College fuad, amounting to about $197,-
000, whloh will be paid on th* first of July, will
also be Invested in these bond*.
Tux following resolutions were adopted last

Whereas, the present custom of tbe several

bank on which the cheek or checks may bo
drawn, or tbe endorsement of onatomera de
positing checks drawn on other bexkks may or
has led to loss to tbe tollers or the banka, for

Sunday's dispatches report twenty-one oholera
interments in Memphis on Saturday, and say
the eases are increasing in number but beoom-
lng more manageable. The Memphis Ava-
laohe has nothing to say about the disease in
that oity, bat quotes from the Nashville papers
about oholera in Nashville. The Memphis Ap
peal has tbe following important item, of whieh
no doubt some explanation would have been
given were It not for tbe mistaken polio; of
oonoealment which the Memphis papers have
adapted :
“Many of the dootors are busy with mioro-
acopes examining tbe phyaioal . atraotnre of a
most diminutive insect, barely visible to the
naked eye, which made ita appearanoe every

the little wretches the cause of the retching of

neighbors oomplaln.”
A Nashville physician, writing about the dis
ease to a Louisville dootor, says:
We hare a malignant form of oholera morbus
in oar oity—a species of oholera eq nelly as vio

The disease made ita apperranoe without any
previous warning, in the old looality known as
ths Wilson Spring neighborhood—a hot bed for
all epidemios that reach Nashville. As yet it Is
not epidemlo. Oar oity is in good ooniition

to the southern portion. Violent vomiting is

of the empire in 1860. Universal oonfidenoe I*

against insuzreotion and Communism. Per
sonal government is at sn end. Trade revives
in the promise of speedy deliversnoe from the
stupidities of protection—taxes on raw mate
rials—discriminating duties against foreign bot
toms—and government monopolies. The re
public is in far leas danger than when Thiers
imperilled tt with his ground and lofty tumb
ling. The correspondent says:
Yon cannot imagine how completely all agita
tion, all excitement, has disappeared. The
question of ropnblie or monarohy has been rel

stent, the exriting oanss of tbe same was traoe-
able to a hearty meal of new this year’s vegeta
ble*. In s meeting we compared notes, and
almost every fatal oase was traoed beok to im-
jradenoe in onr new vegetables. Hence I still
lold out that we have a severe malignant lorm
of oholera morbus in our midst. I will here
state that, whan tbe patient la reaohed in time,
tbe disease yields to medical treatment; at least
most of the oases terminate favorably when
taken in time, and the sequel of the present
form of cholera promises quicker reaotion and
fewer relapses. I am oonfident that vegetable
jrovirions this year are tbo cause of tho early
making out of the oholera. I oertainiy looked
for it this year after the dispersion of the
masses from the Vienna Exposition, but we have
a very severe prelude here now. Our oity, to
the day of the onset of this terrible aeonrge,
was extremely healthy, (bnt excessively filthy.)
From late developments we may look for epl-
dtmlo dysentery to follow the track of the pres
ent oholera.
Louisville Is also oompl&lning of the oholera
morbus. The Courier-Journal of the 12thaaya:
There Is considerable cholera morbus in the
elty, resulting in the main from eating immod
erately of traits and vegetables, and from other
incautious habits. Several of these eases have
been reported as oholera,-but a close investiga
tion by leading physicians has failed to oon-
vinoe them of the oorreotnees of the report.
Laat night a negro woman, on Green, above
First street, died with oholera morbus of so se
vere s character that the attending pbyaioian
wa< almost per*aided that the Aaiatio scourge
was among us. Another negro woman, who
lived in tbe tenement house immediately west
of Book'a Hall, died in a similar manner yester
day morning. This laat oase waa not a matter

Two H«n Killed and Three Fatally
Wounded in a Colored Ctanrcb.
From the Louisville Courier-Journal, Jana 10.]
On Sunday afternoon a large crowd of colored
people met at Eldorado Meeting House, in Her-
oer oounty, Ky., about ten miles east of Har-
nXUOt/g, EO o -—!■-* n~ a
Among them was one Addison Mack, who ran
away with a oolored girl named Sarah Nelson,
abont three months ago, and married her. At
the basket meeting the girl’s brothers met Maok,
and one of them, John Nelson, began to abuse
him. Maok pulled out one of hia revolvers and
shot Nelson through the bowels, inflloting a
wound of whieh the man died in a few minutes.
Henry Kirk interfered in behalf of Nelson, and-
reoeived a bullet through the ohest whioh in-
flioted a mortal wound.
John Maok, a brother of tbe murderer, rushed
into the melee to taka his. brother’s part,
and reoeived at his hands a shot through the
head and another through the ohest He died
almost instantly. Maok seemed to have been
too muoh infuriated to know friend from foe,
for tbe next man to reoeive deadly wounds at
his hands was a friend named Milton Oissell,
who was endor voting to aid Mask. Cissell was
■hot through the flashy part of the thigh, the
ballet revering the femoral artery.
John WaUaoe rushed in to aid the Nelsons,
when Maok emptied the remaining loads of his
seoond pistol into tho body of Wallace, again
inflioting fatal wonnds. Haring emptied his
pistols, Maok surrendered, and waa taken to
jail at Harrodabnrg.
Of course the congregation left the churob,
and most of them mounted horses and rode off
as fast as possible. There was some talk of
lynohing both Maok and his wife among the
yonng negroes, but the influence of their riders
was used to dissuade them, and Maok will pro
bably be spared to undergo a legal trial.
TBE WALWORTH TRAGEDY,
Abont tbe Secret Herrins* >*<■ tbe Cause*
vrhlcb Led te tbe Divorce.
Special Dispatch to the Chicago Tribune.]
New Yobk, June 11.—A Saratoga special
res the following aepount of the onuses which
i to the Walworth parricide:
Mansfield Tracy Walworth.' was thrown into
the society of his step-sister*, after his father’s
marriage to the widow of Colonel Harden, and
without the idea occurring to their seniors that
they would ever dream of bein» anything nearer
to one another than brother and sister. Mrs. Wal
worth was a strict Catholic, and the marriage
between the young people would have been ex
tremely distasteful to her, since, in the views
of the churches, this relationship by her new
marriage was such us to forbid the forming of
closer ties; but the young people knew nothing
of these ecclesiastical regulations and cared lit
tle for aught save themselves^ and so grew to
love each other strongly—so deeply, indeed,
that the passion after a while obscured their
reason. Then they secretly pligbted the
troth to each other, and took up the relation of
man and wife. A few brief months of wild
happiness followed. As was inevitable; the se
cret exposed itself when the betrothed wife was
evidently abcut to become a mother. Then a
scene of recrimination followed. The young
couple made the excuse that they had promised
themselves to each other, and recognized one
another by solemn words of agreement between
themselves aa man and wife, and that this
agreement, according to civil law, waa marriage.
There was then but one recourse left, and that
was to make the best of an unhappy passion, and
inite them by formal ceremony of the chnrch.
)o this cheerful ament was given and it was ac
cordingly done. The marriage that had be
come a necessity was formally solemnized, and
three months afterwards -Frank H. Walworth
was born. As might he expected, when the
passion cooled the couple looked upon each other
with changed eyes, and each came to think that
their choice would have been different had they
not been thrown together in a common house
hold. Hence it happened that they qnarreled,
and finally separated. Each wa- jealous of the
other, and each despised the other for youthful
weakness and indiscretion. Letters passed be
tween them, containing recrimination, and some
of their strange missives came into the possess
ion of the young parricide. Taunts upon hi3
mother angered him, and there is reason to be
lieve he totally misunderstood the reflections
made on the subject of his own illegitimacy.
He thought bis lather reflected on bis mother’s
chastity after marriage. Fired with false chiv
alry, he did not stop to question his mother,
and the mother had naturally concealed her
weakness from her son. It waa enough for
him that a slur had been cast upon her name and
his own. He took his fathers life, and there!
by published his mother’s early frailty to the
world. Her best friends lament this more bit
terly than the murder for which her son is
imprisoned.

Attempt te Threw a Train off • Track.
Norwich, Oonn., Juno 16.—Three men were
arrested in Plainfield laat night, and are now in
the oity prison hero, charged with planing ob
structions ou the track of the Norwioh and
Worcester railroad. Oa Sunday morning En
gineer Sidney P. Cooper and George Harvey,
fireman, were severely injured by etoaplng
steam from sn engine. A plank was placed on
tbe track, below the depot, at Daysrilie, but
wsa swept by the oow-catcher about two hundred
test Farther on the engine enoountered s
be in the veay heart of the village, and swept
it some fire hundred feet to a switch, when it
oangbt in a frog and threw the engine
from the track. The whistle blew down brakes,
and every effort waa made to keep the
train on tbe road bed, bnt the speed was so
great that the engine oould not be stopped, and
tt swept the oapstones from the bridge over the
fire mile river, and the looomotlve and three
ear*, ooataining 16 persons, fell into a bog
meadow, some 14 feet below, borying the en
gineer and fireman beneath the rains. After
an honr’s labor they were extracted, badly
braised and a added, but are reported as doing
well today.
At a meeting of oitizsns a reward of $1,000

Further from the Railroad Accident.
To the list of brave men should be added the
names S. P. Cooper and Geo. Harvey, engin
eer and fireman of the Norwioh and Woroester
railroad, who went down with their engine on
Sunday-morning. Banning at the rate it waa,
the engine plowed ita way over ties for nearly
two rods before it reaohed the bridge, and tin
with a mighty bound, it plunged into the t
of the stream below, a distauoe near twenty
feet. Aa it fell it turned completely over, strik
ing tbe gronnd with its wheels uppermost, and
buried itself deep in the earth. The tender
followed with terrific force, and the coupling
breaking by a jerk of the plnnge, it was hnrled
completely over tbe engine and plsoed square
on the end, as if by tbe bands of man.
A great flit oar, with its load of heavy ooal,
was thrown beyond the engine. Tbe terrible
fall of twenty feet, crashing off the strong
bonnd boxes of the Adams Express oar, crowded
with express freight, fell upon the engine, torn-
ing as it fell and lying with one Bide partly

The Mexican Border Tronbles.
Washington, June 1G.—Messrs. Dobb and
Savage, of the commission to inquire into the
outrages on tho Texas border, arrived here this
morning, tho other oommlssioner, Mr. Os
borne, having reachod the oity last night. They
had an interview with Seoreiary FiBh in tho
oonrse of the day. They deny the reported
stories that the Texans make raids into Mexioo,
and say that oven if they had the disposition to
do so, there is nothing to indnoe them to plun
der their poverty strioken neighbors. All our
oitizen9 care for is protection in their person*
and property from incursions of Mtxicans and
Indians.
Affklrs IJpon tbe Border.
After the Commissioners went np the Bio
Grande to take testimony, the Mexioans com
menced raiding on the lower part of that river.
As Boon as they left the Bio Grande, the Kioka-
ooos crossed and began their thieving opera
liras, for whloh they were pursued and chas
tised by OoL McKenzie.
The Texas Legislators instituted an enquiry
into Mexican and Indian wrongs npon citizens
of that State, when some of tbe mpst reapeota-
ble residents of the Nenoes Valley went to
Austin and gave stronger testimony than they
had previously given before tho commissioners.
The commission represent the amount of dam
ages, direot and oonsequental, to those who
have suffered by these raids, at between $50,000
to $60,000.
Five hundred petitions in the way of oom
plaint, with specifications, were presented to
tbe commissioners, and these wore supported
by 1,600 affidavits. Many of tbe petitioners
and affidavits were represented to be of the
moat reepectable chsraoter.
As to the Kiokapoos it is supposed there are
not more than 20 warriors emong them. The
chief said substantially to' a commissioner,
what is the use of onr accepting tbe proposi
tion of theUnited States, to go to a reservation?
We would have but a small patoh of gronnd,
and could not make raids on other reservations.
Hero «ro onnported in part by the Mexican
Government, which not only ompputu un wuu
provisions, bnt gives ns more, and when we
want to go into Texss they not only supply us
with provisions, bnt give us money, and when
we want to go to Texas the merchants and
planters supply us with horaea, guns, and am
munition and provisions, that we may make
onr raids; and we pay them from what we cap
ture. Besides we have a beantifnt oonntry and
fine climate, many privileges and the whole of
the Texas border to raid.
Tbe commissioners think that if the captives
taken by McKenzie Bhonld be restored to the
Kiokapoos, they would be no more inclined to
return to tbe United States than they are now,
and fcenoe they donbt the propriety of comply,
ing with their wishes.
