**n Next Thursday
The Bad which is to come off next Thursday
evening, promises to be a handsome affair. It is
not merely a local matter. A good Fire Company
in this City, will prove of great benefit to the
State. In case of fire in any of the Public build
ings in this city, tens of thousands of dollars
might be saved to the 8tate. if there was a good
lire Company in the place. We hope the Mer
chants and Mechanic's Fire Company will realize
enough money from this Ball, to enable them,
with the aid of private contributions, to purchase
a splendid Engine and all other apparatus con
nected with It.
Again we express the .hope that the Company
may bo benafitted, and.the Ball prove pleasant to
all present. The Ladies will have a fine supper
on hand. The Ball will be at the Milledgeville
Hofei; the supper at Newel’s Hall.
After the Bricks.—We see that a resolution
has been introduced in the Legislature inquiring
into the “ bowabonts and whereabouts” of the

many of our citizens that the bricks were not sold
for the benefit of the State, when all could liav
had an equal chance.

Mr. Ridley, of Troup, introduced a
resolution that no new matter after
the 19th instant be entertained by the
House.
The special order of the day—the
bill from the Finance Committee to
provide by taxes for the support of
the government of the State for the
year 1866—was taken up by sections.
The whole morning was occupied on
the bill without arriviug at a vote.
More of the “Chivalry.”—A very dis
loyal fellow amused himself in the galler-
leries of the Senate chamber the other day,
by throwing pea-nuts at the head of Sena
tor Wil son. The Senator dodged them
several times, and finally the fellow was
arrested, and turned out to be one of Wil
son’s constituents by the name of Roby,
from Cambridge, Mass. It was deemed
worthy of a special dispatch to the Bos-
tou Journal, colored so as to lead people
to suppose it the work of a wicked “reb
el,” a conclusive argument in favor of
keeping the Southern States out of the
Union.
A wicked “copperhead” in the Bangor
Democrat makes it the occasion of putting
Peanut Wilson into rhyme as follows :
As Wilson rose to make a spread,
A harmless peanut struck his head,
But when he crosses Andy's track,
He'll find a harder nut to crack.
A Handsome Letter.—Some parties in
New hern, N. C., having unnecessarily ap
plied for permission from the military au

the following manly and gallant reply :
IId’uhs. District Newberx, * )
Newborn, N. C. Jan. 13, 1866. J
Mr. George Me Knight :
Sir—The Colonel commanding the dis
trict directs me to inform you, in reply to
your communication of this date, respect
ing your proposition for the benefit of the
widow of “Stonewall” Jackson, that the
U. S. military authorities can never object
to a charitable action. All soldiers owe a
tribute to gallantry and honor. It is to
be presumed that every officer of this
command will esteem it a privilege to be
permitted to engage with you in the as
sistance of a lady whose husband was so
respected and so renowned. I have the
honor to be, very respectfully, vonr obe
dient servant, H. R. Ellis,
Acting Assistant Adjutant General.

Ikou art Changed.
Oh,how sadly thou art changed,
Yet I scarcely can believe
That the vows you plighted to me,
Were intended to deceive.
That your heart is false aud fickle,
I will not cannot think,
Sooner would I wish to perish,—
In oblivious darkness sink.
Surely somethingmore than weakness,
On your heart this change has wrought,
For I know your every moment
Is with care, and trouble fraught
Yes I know that every effort,
Which malicious tongues could use,
Have against my hopes been center'd
My name to slander and abuse.
Yes I fondly once did hope
That their malice, and their hate
Would with you have no influence,
And if if has, I know too late. •
Yet I would not now upbraid you
With a false or fickle heart,
For you only do their bidding,
Aud but act another's part.
Yes I know your heart is constant
Prtre and gentle, ever true,
And in sorrow death or gladness,
My soul Pd trust to you. ^ j
Cursed the tongue, and blister’d be it,
That would say you are untrue;
Oh ! I would not e’en believe it
Were it sworn to me by you.

Heartrending Scene* on Board—Over
Two Hundred Live* Lott—Full Par
ticulars.
The London Times of Jan. 18th gives
a detailed account of the foHodering of the
auxiliary screw steamship London, in the
Bay of Biscay, with upwards of two hun
dred souls on board. The vessel cleared
from London for Australia on the 1st of
January and encountered very heavy
weather. She put iota Plymouth and
sailed again on the 5th. The weather
was still very severe.
On the 10th instant Captain Martin put
the ship about for Plymouth. At 10:30
P. M.. on Wednesday, the ship still roll
ing deeply in a heavy cross sea, and the
wind blowing a whole gale from the
Southwest, a mountain of water fell heavi
ly over the waist of the ship, and spent its
destructive force upon the main hatchway,
over the engine room, completely de
molishing the massive structure, measur
ing twelve feet by eight feet, and hood
ing with tons of water this portion of the j
ship. Not more than ten minutes after j
the hatchway had been destroyed, the wa- j
ter had risen above the furnaces and up to
the waists of the engineers and firemen
employed in this part of the ship. The
lower decks were also now Hooded with
the rush of waters the ship was continual
ly taking in. Finding his noble ship at
length little more than a logon the water,
Captain Martin ordered his maintopsail to
be set, in the hope of keeping her before
the wind. This had scarcely been ac
complished when the force of the wind
tore the sail into ribands, with the excep
tion of one corner, under which the ship
lay to throughout the remainder of the
night.
The donkey-engine was supplied with
steam by a boiler upon deck, and all the
deck pumps were kept going throughout
the night, and passengers of all classes,
now aroused to a sense of their imminent
danger, shared with the crew their ardu
ous labors. Notwithstanding every effort
the water still gained upon the pumps,
and the gale continued at its height; cross
seas, with tremendous force, were con
stantly breaking over the vessel. The
motion of the ship became low and heavy,
and she refused to rise to the action of the
waves. At a quarter after four o’clock on
Thursday morning she was struck by a
stern sea, which carried away four of her
stern-ports, and admitted a flood of water
through the breach. From this time all
efforts were fruitless. Gapt, Martin had
the terrible task of making known to the
two hundred passengers that the ship was
sinking and that they must prepare for
the worst. She was then as low in the
water as the main chains. The whole of
the passengers and crew gathered, as with
one consent, in the chief saloon, and hav
ing been calmly told by Capt. Martin
that there was no hope left, a remarkable
and unanimous spirit of resignation came
over them at once. There was no scream
ing or shrieking by the women or men, no
rushing on deck or frantic cries. Ail
calmly resorted to the saloon, where the
Rev. Mr. Draper, one of the passengers,
prayed aloud, and exhorted the unhappy
creatures by whom he was surrounded.—
Dismay was present to every heart, but
disorder to none- Mothers were weeping
sadly over the little ones abont with them
to be engulphed, and the children, igno
rant of their coming death, were pitifully
inquiring the cause of so much woe.
Friends were taking leave of friends, as if
preparing fora long journey; others were
crouched down with Bibles in their hands,
endeavoring to snatch consolation from
passages long known or long neglected,
incredible was the composure which, un
der 6Uch circumstances, reigned arbund.
Captain Martin stationed himself on the.
poop, going occasionally forward or
into the saloon; but to none coubl he offer
a word of comfort but telling them that
their safety was not even probable. Ho join
ed, now aud then, for a few moments, iu
the public devotions, but his place to the
last was on the deck. About 2 o’clock
in the afternoon, the water gained last ou
the ship and no signs of the storm subsi
ding being apparent a small band of men
determined to trust themselves to the mer
cy of the waves in a boat rather than go
down without a struggle. Leaving the
saloon, therefore, they got out and lower-,

OBITUARY.
Dic-d at her residence, (Sycamore Level) in
Baldwiu county, on the Utb of February, 1866,
after a sbort illness, Mrs. Matilda E. Hill, re
lict of David B. Hill, aged 69 years and seven
months.
To those who knew this most estimable lady,
no encominms are necessary. The simple an
nouncement that she is dead, will carry with it
pain and deep regret. The affectionate mother,
the true friend, the kind mistress, the good neigh
bor and noble matron is gone, but the memory of
her good deeds still lives. Thrown upon her own
resources by the death of her husband many years
since; and with a large and dependant family of
young children, she devoted her life to their ser
vice, and with a surpassing energy, guided by a
sound judgment, she not only placed thim iu com
parative affluence, but instilled into them her own
qualities of heart afld mind, so that they could
‘‘rise and call her blessed ”
Just and upright in a.i her transactions—hospi
table: charitable, and considerate of the welfare of
all, it is not strange that she should have lived so
highly esteemed, arid have died so much regret
ted. 8he was not attached to any particnlar de
nomination of Christians. Her religion was of
that practical kind, which, in seeking to please
God, ministers to the destitue, upholds the weak,
consoles the atflieted. and spreads over all the
broad mantle of Christian charity. In view of a
life spout in doing good, she died in the glorious
hope of an eternal reward, and believed, as she
sai l, that "God had forgiven her sins." T.

then pulled away tossing about helpless
ly on the crests of the gigantic waves-
Scarcely had they gone eighty yards, or
been five minutes off the deck, when the
steamer wept down stern foremost with
her crowd of human beings frdrft whom one
confused cry of helpless terror arose, and
all was sileiit forever. After -the port
cutter had got away from the London, and
in the brief interval before the latter foun
dered, a rush wvs^ento he fnade- to the
two remaining hunts, but the efforts to
launch them were ineffectual, and the sud
denness of the foundering at last—the
London beifig an iron ship—pre,vented
what might have beefr'a successful second
attempt to save a few more lives.
Liverpool, Jan. 19.—The steamer Lon
don was valued at 85,000.pounds sterling,
and her cargo was insured for 220,000
pounds sterling. It is confirmed that the
Rev. Dr. Woolley, the new Bishop of Syd

among the passengers.
Ami I do moreover charge and require all offi
cers in this State, civil and military, to be vigilant
in endeavoring to apprehend the said Milton
Poarch, in order that he may be brought to trial
for tlie offence with which he stands charged.
