When I visited the : place about two years ago, it was some what notorious for the whiskitorial pro olivities of its inhabitants, and Barley corn was a decided favorite. Now there 1 is not a grocery in the town, and a drtm- , ken man is rarely seen. So much for suppressing the traffic. The town appears to he gradually re j covering from the ravages of the fire j last year, and a number of brick • stores are completed. ... The storm last week was very dnas-1 trous to the timber in the counties' above; the sleet having broken down ] many trees, and entirely stripped others j of their branches. So severe was it, j that the roads in Jackson, Gwinnet, i Habersham,and throughout thatsection,! were rendered impassable. As the sleet i melted, the streams became much swol- i len, washing plantations, and destroy-1 ing fences in all the low lands. lam under many obligations to Mr. j Leroy Patiij.o, the gentlemanly post- j master, and to Mr. Arnold, the hotel j keeper, for their courteous interest in! the Ditfxttch, as a result of which I scud; you a long list of subscribers. There is not much new business ini eourt here, and the docket exhibits most) gratifying evidence of improvement in; the public morals. The case of Thomas I O’Kelly, indicted for the murder of his, wife, was called to-day. This is one of! tlie most revolting eases of protracted i and diabolical cruelty on record. It ap i pears that his wife has been insane for many years, and for ten or twelve years' -—after he moved to this county—he ‘ kept her confined in an out house near; his horse lot. He hauled her from Ogle thorpe county in 1846, in a box or cage, i too small to stand up or lie down In, ( and kept her in it until he could get a-! pen built. It appears that she was ra-; tional and quiet much of the time, hut was frequently noisy, frantic, and an noying. 'l’lie neighbors say that he has ■assigned as a reason for fastening her up, that she mixed up and wasted food in the kitchen, and that she would, ■when crazy, tear hor clothes, and make distuibanco. He her once or twice pc titioned to the legislature to take her off his hands, and put her iu the asy lum, and to the appeals of his neigh bors to place her there at his own ex pense, ho would answer, that it -would cost him money, and that he had better keep it for the children! Witnesses tes tify that she was fed through a little hole four by-eight inches insi ;c, and and that her fcod and excrement were passed in and out in the same vessel; that she was always nearly naked ; that the stench of the pen was horrible;' that green flics swarmed about it, and that other women filled her place in the the domestiocirele. She continued in tliis dreadful place, until the v,inter of 18GC, when, during some of the cold snowy weather of that year, n e froze to death. A gentleman told me that some days after her death, and after the pen had been thoroughly aired and secured, In put his head in at the door and could not breathe,for the smell -was so dis gusting. O’Kelly is a man of property, and received several negroes by hie wife.— The details of his conduct, as brought out bv the witnesses, is of the most re ' volting character. Xdo not think any-! thing like it has occurred in th • histo ry of the criminal calendar of Georgia ; and it is very strange that such a fiend j ’ was allowed to remain in the cominuni-! i tv. 1 learn, however, that he has bccih 1 a kind neighbor, and this, with tin* i j power ins means gave him, have pro- i r tected him from the indignation of an ■ j outraged society. Ke is a stout, rough., looking man, with dark cold eyes, a re- 1 , •coding foiiehead, on which the hair I ( ! grows almost to his eyebrows; and is one who would be singled out of a , crowd for an inimman, selfish nndgre ’ veiling character. There are twenty-j' four witnesses for the State and more-j than that for the defendant. The At torneys are N. G. Foster, h. XV. ’J’. ; Easley and 8. P. Thurmond for tlxo | * State; Judge Floyd, W. W. Clark and i Lamar, for the prisoner. There is'' grgat interest manifested in the case, ‘ t and it is expected that Foster will make one o' his great speeches. I may al lude to this trial again.

An American Horse Tamer, On Saturday Mr. Rarey, an American now on a visit to this country whose skill in taming the horse and complete ly subjecting him, however wild, vic ious, or intractable,to his will and mas tery is beginning to attract public at 'ention, was afforded an opportunity of . exhibiting bis peculiar powers in this capacity before the Queen, the Prince Consort, the Princess Royal, the Prince ’ of Wales, •Prince Alfred and other mem - bers of the Royal family, with the la-j dies of the Court and moat of the for- ] i eign Princes and distinguished visitors! : j now in London, including Prince Frede-; J rick William of Prussia, the Prince of j Prussia, and a large and distinguished: j company. ■j To show that Mr. Rarey’s power is! J not a thing personal to himself, he has! J since his exhibition of it at Windsor i 1 communicated the secret of it to Major j 5 ! General Sir Richard Airy, Lord Alfred Paget, and Colonel Hood, under thei most stringent obligations, of course, j ’ that they will not disclose it to others; i 1 and Lord Alfred Paget, who is now as 11 much a as Mr. Rarey, on Saturday gave a successful exetnplifica- tion of his skill before Her Majesty, the I Prince Consort, and their august visitors taking for his subject a beautiful dap-! pie gray pony belonging to the Prince ! of Wales. Lord Alfred was left alone with the pony for a few minutes in the* riding-school, and on the admission ofj the Royal party it was prostrate on the, ground with his lordship sitting, caress j ing it. handling its feet and legs, rest-! ing on its haunches, and in ail re spects treating it in a manner proving its complete subjection to him. Mr. Rarey then appeared with a black horse from Anderson’s in Piccadilly,his mastery over which he showed in a va riety of ways. Placing himself at one end of the riding i cliool he called to the animal, which he had left at the other., and it immediately cantered to wards him in a playful manner. It lay down at his biddhig or followed him like r. dog round the building. When down, a plank was laid upon its should er, ?rp which Lord Paget ran a wheel barrow. Finally when the horse had! regained his legs, he wits mounted by Mr. Rarey, who sat upon the animal’s crupper with his back to the head, beat-] 'ing a drum and cracking a whip over) him, this treatment resulting in neither, motion nor fear on the part of tbei horse. One of the line stud of cream! colored horses belonging to Her Majes ty was next subjected to the manipula tion of Mr. Rarey, with an equally sue-] cessful and surprising result, so far as; laying the animal, which is an entire horse, down was concerned, and hand ling him all over with the most perfect j freedom, the horse tamer not deeming it desirable, on so short an acquaintance! to carry the familiarity t<> the extent of onenin_r an umbrella in his face, or; opening an umbrella in ms ,ace, or cracking a whip or beating a drum over him. Besides the frequent display of some vicious propensities, this particu lar animal of late has never per mi ted any one to ride him f but be allowed Mr. Rarey to mount him without offering the least resistance. With this tlie exhibition terminated, and the Queen and her illustrious visitors, by whom it was witnessed with the most evident tokens of interest and wonder, took their departure. It ought to he stated that Sir. Rich ard Airey, Lord Alfred Paget, and Col. Hood, to each of whom Mr. Rarey has communicated his secret, are under i stood to declare that, there is nothing in the treatment in the smallest degree painful or improper towards tlie horse subjected to it. or which would offend the* susceptibilities of a bystander sensi tively alive to anything partaking in the least of cruelty to a dumb animal They also assert that it consists of no trickery of any description, nor of the use of any drug, or mesmeric or other similar influence whatever. Mr Rarey T theory is that hitherto all our treat ment of this noble animal—at least, in the preliminary stages of breaking, and so forth -has proceeded on ideas of his nature altogether erroneous and cruel, and been invariably characterized by unneeoessary violence, which has pro-! coked the display of resistance and oth-; er kindred qualities on his part, and so the evil has been perpetuated. The princepleon which Mr. Rarey goes, on) I the other hand, is one of extreme kind • ness and tenderness towards the animal, ! the object being to convince him that! i man is his natural master and friend, land to elicit bis confidence and kindh regard. Mr. Rarey appeals to wliafc lie; calls “the intellect and affections ofj the horse,” and states that this is the secret of all his success. He is a slight ly made man about 30 years of age, the j son of a stock farmer and breeder of, horses, who lived in Franklin county, in the state of Ohio, and is himself en-j gaged in a similar ocupation at a place calledGroviport, about 10 miles from] Columbus, tlie capital of that state.—j We believe that Sir Richard Airey and Led Alfred Paget* have been requested ] to inquire into and report upon the sys-l teni of treatment adopted by Mr. Rarey in the interest of the government. •■*•**- Snldilo In Prison.

FIRST SESSION. Washington, Feb. 17, 1858. SENATE. The following resolution, submitted yesterday by Mr. Houston, was taken up for consideration : Whereas, the events connected with the numerous efforts of the people of Mexico and the Central America of this Continent to establish and maintain or der and good government, since their i separation from the mother country, have so far resulted in failure and con sequent anarchy, and demonstrated to the world the inability of said people to effect an object alike so desirable and so indispensable to their welfare and pros perity ; therefore. Resolved, That the Committee on Foreign Relations be instructed to in quire into and report upon the expedi ency of the Government of the United States, declaring and maintaining an efficient protectorate over the States of Mexico, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Guate mala, Honduras, and San Salvador, in such form and to such extent as shall be necessary to secure to the people of said States the blessings of a good and stable republican government, Mr. Wilson, of Mass., attacked the ; resolution as one calculated to disgrace ■ us in the eyes of the world. Mr. Houston controverted Mr. Wilson’s i statements. Tie was opposed to filli j busterism, but thought the subject I worthy of consideration, inasmuch as ! other powers had designs on the same | country. Mr. Mason objected to referring the 'I resolution to the coihmittees ; on the! i ground that the Central American States! , would regard such an interference as an ■ 2 j indignity. He also doubted the policy 2 ; extending protectorates anywhere. f Mr. Hale moved an amendment, as I e i follows : ; I Whereas a state of colonial independ- j Jenceisnot calculated to illustrate in ; .J theory or practice a popular sovereignty I rr! and perfect freedom, therefore. n ! Resolved* That the committee on j u Foreign Relations be instructed to in- : s i quire with regard to extending a pro-| t | tectoratc over Canada and other British e possessions on the American continent. I o Mr. Tombs advocated the resolution.! e He said the time for action was not far j distant, and it was detter that the ques-j v ; tior. should he considered now. jj! On motion of Mr. Mison, the resolu n tk»n was laid on the table. [J The Army bill was debated, but no |. j action taken. { \ HOUSE. y | The House refused to grant the pray-; s er of Mr. Brooks, contestant for the seatj : of Mr. H. Winter Davis, from the Fourth: r j Congressional district of Maryland, ask-i r ;ingfor a special commission to take I . testimony. J The House resolved itself into com-; . mittee of the whole, and resumed the; . consideration of the Indian appropria-j j tion bill. u! Kansas affairs were discussed, but no I action was taken. -I ; ( Washington, Feb 17. r The special House committee on Kan-' 3 sas affairs held a meeting to-night. A ! f i proposition to summon Walker, Stan-; r ton,Calhounand Ilendevson, as witnesses r was voted down, on the ground that j f the proboble receipt of information • . from the Executive might supersede; 1 the necessity of taking oral testimony. \ A resolution passed, calling on the; r f tate department for the registry and ' census of Kansas, taken in pursuance of i law. [ Several propositions looking to a full [ investigation, as indicated in the reso lution of the House, were voted down 1 by a strict and uniform party vote of 8 |to 7. 'Hie committee adjourned to; i meet again next Wednesday. .j A majority of the Senate committee; . i on Territories have prepared a bill simp-, , j Iy for the admission of Kansas under ■ j the Lecompton Constitution, similar to .

PMaarcuts JOYFUL NEWS TO Rheumatic Sufferers. Oh, the amount of sufTering that fyas been endur ed, and the thousands of deaths that have occurred for the want of a proper and timely remedy for this dreadful dis ease which is invariably found in LYNCH’S ANTI-RHEUMATIC POWDERS. r | HIE only sure and radical cure yet , JL discovered. See circular and the following CKKTIKICATKS 7 I do hereby certify that, after suffering for ihirly-three ytars with the most excruciating pain from Chronic Rheumatism, and finding no permanent relief from any of the man}' prescrip tions gi, nme by ditf.-rent physicians, I am now entirely well, not only of Rheumatism it self, but likewise of its effects. This cure was effected by a preparation styled Lynch’s Anti- Rheumatic Powders Os these powders I took two dozen, and hav not had any symptoms of my old pains for thr ' * years. The effect upon me was like magic Within three days after j had taken the first powder, my pains disappear ed, and I have been entirely clear of them up to the present time. To all suffering from Rheumatism I do hearti ly recommend these powders, confidently be lieving that you have only to give them a trial to secure a lasting cure. Most respeettully, John Llvch. Eaton ton, April 22, 1865. 1 have no hesitation in saying, that after hav ing sufiered for upwards of thirty years with Rheumatism in the most dreadtul forir—first in my toes, then my thumbs, wrists and knees, and lastly, most excruciatingly in my neck, I took two or three dozen o! Lynch’s Anti Rheumatic Powde rs, and notwithstanding I am old and my constitution much shattered, 1 have received the greatest benefit imaginable: my relief from suffering and pain, I cannot attribute toanytbiug but the powders, tor I have tried ever} thing in vain, that frie u’s >uld suggest or physicians prescribe. I wear.., therefore, earnestly re i them t» every sufferer of this dread ful disease, let him be old or young. , _ Ruh’t Mykick. Entonlon, April 2, 1855. I am happy to state, for the benefit of those , "’ho are afflicted with Rheumatism, that a per led cure has been affected in the person of a ue ' gro man of mine by Lynch's Anti-Rheumatic Powders, the said boy having suffered with it Incessantly for twenty years, lost at least one i third ofhis time until he took the above pow i ders. which time, now nearly two year* i he has been a valuable and constant field hand i never having suffered with Rheumatism since i to the best of my knowledge, and I take pleas i ire in recommending them to those thus afflict i d.
