UJjc Constitutionalist AUGUSTA, G-J^.Z Wednesday Morning, Sept. 29, 1875. Richmond, Va., September 23,1875. A litors Dispatch: The article in to-day’s i a under the head of “Andersouville,” -it;a & R. R. S., would have been still stronger it he had not overlooked one im portant fact: that our Government offered to - nd the Federal .prisoners home with out exchange —that is, on parole. I send y. i a few lines, written from a Northern -Mil ipoint, which puts the responsibility where it justly belongs. The lines are old, and l expect you have seen them before. Yours, Old Fxbst Virginia Infantry. The Boys in Blue Who Died in Prison. Full fifteen thousand men, The brave, the good, the true, As captives died in prison-pen— “ They died for me and you!” And shall not ti eth’s indignant tongue Declare who did this grievous wrong ? On many a bloody field They stood ’gainst leaden hail; And though at last constrained to yield, Their spirits did not quail; hey safely passed their battles through, Aud yet “they died for me and you.” lhey pined for homo, sweet home, And for their daily bread; Alas! assistance did not come, And now—they’re with the dead! E’en hardened rebels felt their grief, And yet could furnish no relief! The rebel leaders durst Mot do what toe have done; Though many hearts with anguish burst At tales from “Anderson”: For still they lef our brave men share Their own coarse food and scanty fare. The sad tale must be told : The brave, the true, the good, While we were busy coining gold i hey died for want of food! 'These fifteen thousand boys in blue As victims died—“for me and you.” The rebels in their need. Once, twice, and yet again, Dill all they could to plead For justice to these men: But deaf, alas! the Nation’s ear. The p.-ople’s servants would not hear. Even Davis felt their grief, And sent his message forth, By prompt exchange to grant relief To prisoners South and North. And why, alas! was not this done ? There was no heart at Washington! GEORGIA GENERAL NEWS. Howe’s Circus will be in Atlanta on the 11th and 12th of October. It goes thence up the Air-Line Railroad ’to Charlotte. i'atuin and Fuller, two adjoiniug At lanta merchants, fell out and fought Saturday. Fuller struck Tatum and Tatum shot at Fuller. Fuller’s head anil datum’s show ease were wounded. The Newnan Star states, what we have not heretofore seen in print, that dr. Mark W. Johnson, of Atlanta, has g lie into bankruptcy with heavy lia bilities. He was a large dealer in ag rieultural implements. Atlanta Constitution: Oh Friday night an infamous attempt was made at CLarkston, on the Georgia Railroad, to throw the night passenger train off :he track by placiug broken iron rails in the frogs at both euds of the switch. Fortunately the wheels of the engine forced the rails out and the design of the outlaws was frustrated. The New York Herald, in speaking of the capture of “Ginerai” Joe Mor ris, says : “It is a somewhat remarka ble circumstance that he should have been in communication with the United .States District Attorney for several days prior to his capture, and that a United States judge should have re fused permission to the sheriff to en ter a room in the court house where the criminal lay concealed. Tho almost invariable sympathy manifested for ne gro criminals in the South by Federal officials would not seem to tend greatly toward the promotion of the era of good feeling of which so much has been said of late.” Why, bless you, when a negro commits larceny, arson, robbery or murder, he runs to the nearest Federal official—that is, if he i a knowing negro.— [Savannah News. Somebody at Atlanta recently wrote to Mr. Murat Halstead, of the Cincin nati Commercial, to get his views on the subject of sewers—a question now agi tating the popular mind of the former - ity—and received the following reply: but: Cincinnati Commercial— Editor’s Office, September 13th, 1875. — Gentle- | men : I have not got documents on the subject of sewers. The latest intelli g nee is : 1. They are jobs undertaken to squander the money of the people. 2. No system of sewerage can ever be completed, at least no one ever is; the more you do, the morn imperative the demand for extensions. 3. They pol lute rivers and waste the sewage that ought to be made useful. 4. The job bers run them in front of houses when tho water closets are in the rear, mak ing connection impossible or excessive ly costly, and endless jobbery for j lumbers. 5. They diffuse contygeous diseases, and by the circulation of sew age gas cause malignant fevers. 6. The and l rascals never half build tho sow ms, aud they are nuisances forever. Please post me as to the progress of this discussion in your city. M. Halstead. Alacon Telegraph: The carriage house and stable of Col. H. J. Lamar, at- Yine villo, were destroyed by lire about two o’clock yesterday. It is not known liow the lire originated. Fortunately there was no stock in the stable, and Col. Lamar’s elegant carriage was ab sent. Both the buildings were new and substantial, and the loss is a serious one. * * Mr. Dan Wright, an em ployee of the cotton factory, got his right arm caught in the machinery yes -1“i day, and so fearfully lacerated that it had to be amputated. It was a part of his business to clean the heavy gear ing which moves the machinery of the warding room, every Saturday at noon. A week ago yesterday he was spe cially cautioned not to attempt to touch the gearing until the engine was perfectly still, as it was very dan gerous to do so. Yesterday, however, in' began his work before the machinery had stopped and his arm was caught by the powerful wheel and drawn through. In this position he was fast ened and had to remain until the engine was stopped and the machinery could be reversed by hand. This proba bly consumed leu minutes. We never saw. a limb so frightfully mangled. The ill sk was entirely tom from the bone below the elbow, aud the tendons were torn out. Besides, be received a severe blow upon the head, which fractured his skull, and also knocked out several of his teeth. Sandersville Herald: An article ap peared last week from the Atlanta corres pondent of the Augusta Constitutionalist announcing- with great positiveness that Gov. Johnson’s friends intend to press him f,r the nomination for the gubernatorial chair next year. Gov. Johnson is now hold ing court here, and we have conversed with him on the subject. He says he has “no aspiration for the office; is not advised that his friends intend to press him for the nomination; he has never authorized any one, either directly or indirectly, to do so, ~r to place him in ths attitude of a candi date for the nomination, and that he has cot the least desire for the office.” * * * Rev. Thos. Granberry, of Jefferson county, died on the 11th inst., aged about eighty rears. He had been a member of tho Bap tist Church for about 05 years. * * Our little city is entirely out of debt, has a surplus in the treasury, and the streets and public works are generally in good condit ion. Can any of the older and large ities beat this? Perhaps but few people realize what riches of resignation are within the reach of the man who is overtaken by a wet Sunday at a Missouri inn, and attempts to make a literary banquet on the advertising columns of an Arkan sas newspaper.
