SENATOR BA VAR I).
Political Views After a Viil So il li.
Oiscontcnt Subsiding with the Increasing
General Prosperity.
(Correspondence of the N. Y. Tribune.)
AVilmington, Del., Nov. 10.—Sena
tor Thomas F. Bayard lias a beauti
ful country seat a few miles from this
place, overlooking the Deleware river.
I visited him there to-day, and had a j
long talk with him. Mr. Bayard is j
tall, lithe and active, having brawn ;
as well as brain. In conversation he j
is sprightly, passing rapidly from one
subject to another and using terse [
expressions. In manner he is nf>t so j
reserved as are most of our public ]
men, and he soon puts his visturs at!
ease. He has recently returned from
the south where he met and conversed
with many prominent men, and the
political interests and the industries
of that section were naturally upper
most in his mind wheti our conversa
tion began.
He had been received everywhere,
be said, with extreme kindness. He
had made speeches at Richmond.
Raleigh and Macon. There was
much less sectional jealousy than there
had been. Southerners' wore glad to
welcome northern men among them,
and to let them know that the south
had been misrepresented by those of
the carpet-bag stripe for political pur
poses. As an evidence of this, Mr.
Bayard sillil thtt': Judge Kelley, of
Pennsylvania, had been treated with
marked respect. This shows the ab
surdity of the bloody shirt stories
which were constantly flaunted be
fore the country by the administra
tion people as evidence of the south’s
disloyalty and the people’s unlitness
to govern themselves. At Macon,
Georgia, there were upon the plat
form, besides himself and other speak
ers, Gen. Hawley, of Connecticut,
who represented the centennial expo
sition’s interests, and Gent" Colquitt,
of Georgia. In the course of his re
marks Gen. Hawley said that he had
met Gen. Colquitt on southern soil
before, but it was under different cir
cumstances from those which now
surrounded them, and from that
meeting he had the best cause to rec
ollect Gen. Colquitt. It was at an
engagement at Oulustee, Florida,
where he left 1,800 of his men, be
sides leaving rather precipitately
himself. That night a meeting of ex-
Confederate officers was held, to which
Hawley was invited. After the
object of the meeting (to build a home
for Confederate orphans i had been
stated, there were loud calls for Gen.
Hurley all over the house, but un
fortunately lie had gone to Atlanta.
THE COLORED PEOPLE S CONDITION.
Iu speaking of the colored people
of the south, Senator Bayard said lie
believed that the democratic party
could and did not rely upon any por
tion of tlieir vote. They were too sol
idly bound together by the secrets and
oaths of their societies to vote any
ticket hut that which these societies
put into their hands. Thei. fore the
safety of the South depended entirely
upon the white people’s maintaining
their political organization, undis
turbed by factious or merely personal
ambitions. He would advise them to
relax no effort to maintain their or
ganization until their equality iu the
Union under the constitution Lad
been thoroughly secured. Every
where and from all classes he heard
expressions of satisfaction that the in
stitution of slavery was at an end.
The superior economy of free labor
was admitted on all sides, and while
the interference of the carpet baggers
and adventurers still, in some degree,
prevented the kindly adjustment of
the new relations between the races,
yet mutual good feeling was rapidly
and surely asserting itself, and pro
ducing its natural results of peace,
good-order and security. If left to
themselves and undisturbed by the
suggestions of republican politicians
and the officious interference of the
government, the antagonisms of the
race would almost entirely disappear.
The colored people finding their
rights of property and political privi
leges uninterfered with, and, indeed,
protected bv the local government, no
longer would assert them violently
and with threats of appealing to Fed
eral power. The civil rights hill had
proved to ho a dead letter in the
south, and no 0110 seemed conscious
of its existence. The colored people
everywhere in the south recognized
their social inferiority to the whites,
and seldom endeavored to avail them
selves of the opportunities offered by
the various clauses of this bill for
claiming higher social privileges. He
had been told by a steamboat captain
on the Savannah river that once or
twice colored people had endeavored
to get passage with the whites, and he
obeyed the law in each instance, but
it was proved in every one of these
instances that the colored man had
been made the catspaw of some car
pet-bag politician, or of some busi
ness rival.
In regard to the course of Attorney-
General Pierrepont after the Mississ
ippi riots, Air. Bayard said: “Un
doubtedly Attorney-General Pierve
pont is an enormous improvement
over his predecessor, Mr. Williams,
and has so far abstained from a repeti
tion of the outrages upon the people
of the south with which Air. |
Williams disgraced his office |
AH. Picrrepont’s refusal to com- j
ply with the barefaced and revoln- i
tionary demands of Gov. Ames for j
troops materially assisted the poor
people of Mississippi in throwing off
their yoke of oppression in their late
State election, although no State gov
ernment can be considered secure and
independent so long as the Attornev-
Geuernl at Washington can assume
control over the police powers csscii
tial to State existence. The people of
the South are making rapid progress
iu recuperating their shattered indus
tries.
INDISTBIAL MIOSPERITY,
“Everywhere in Virginia, North
Carolina, and Georgia, and where the 1
people of the South have been suffer- i
ed to regain control of their locyl .af
fairs, the greatest improvement in the
appearance of the country and indus
trial progress is manifest. All the
way from Washington to Richmond
the restorat on of the face of the coun
try by good tillage, fencing, and im
proved farm buildings, is delightful
ly apparent. In Georgia the advance j
in prosperity is remarkable, and with
such advancement the people fuel
proportionate encouragement to per- ;
form ail the duties of good citizen- ;
ship. Such facts should speak elo- i
qnently ami forcibly against the poli- [
cv of force and proscription recom-!
mended by President Grant and the !
republican party, and which came so \
near being adopted by the last con-1
gress. In agriculture the people of j
the south, arc doing well. They tire I
rapidly appreciating the value and
necessity of diversified industries, and
of varying their crops so that the
acreage of cotton will be curtailed in 1
favor of the various grains, and cat-1
tie grazing receive its duo proportion j
of attention.
“While iu conve nation with a per- •
mntlent planter of Georgia, and in
specting the process of work by a cot
ton gin, the planter took up a hand- j
fill of cotton and said: ‘This is real
ly a curse to the South.’ This was in
reference to its alleged over-produc
tion, and the disregard it had induc
ed of the culture of equally or more
important staples for their home con
sumption, and the lack of profit to
the planter in the growth of cotton at
its present prices. These people rely i
upon it too much because it is easily i
cultivated, and until tliev introduce
diversified crops into their agricult
ure they will continue to be at a dis
advantage.

The Wonderful Snakes of Ken
tucky.—While out huntii gon last
Tuesday Air. Richard Ives discovered
a large cave in the side of a hill un
der a rock, and while opposite heard
the squealing of pigs inside. He step
ped close to the month of the cave to j
investigate the matter, and to his
horror saw protruding the head of an
immense rattlesnake, with a pig in
its mouth. The pig was about four
months old, and weighed about sev
enty-live pounds. He summoned a
number of his neighbors, with guns
and pitchforks, who built a large fire
in the month of the cave, in order to
drive the snakes out. In about an
hour they commenced po .ring out
over the burning coals. As they ap
proached in sight the parties fired
upon them from the top of the cliff.
They continued to pour out until the ;
surrounding woods tor twenty yards
square was litterally covered with
dead and live snakes. They killed ,
310, but many made their escape, j
The largest one killed—-a male—was
ten feet long, and measured around
the body one and a half feet. The
next largest, a female, was seven feet
long and measured one foot around
the body. The largest snakes have
been preserved in alcohol, and will.be j
on exhibition at our fair, free of
charge. The Snake referred *o had
110 rattles. The cave was literally
filled with heads of sheep, pigs, etc.,
which had been captured from sur
rounding country.— Ford's Southern

“How much for that broad-faced

Irishman of a farmer, on Staten Is

QUITMAN, GA, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 25, 1875.
Moody ami Sankey.
j THE SORT OF MEN THEY AUK, AND THE
SECRET OF THEIR POWER.
[New York Correspondence of the Boston
Journal. ]
Air. Moody is not a stranger to
Brooklyn. He is an undersized,
stocky man. He makes no preten
sions to eloquence, but relies on a
certain energetic and forcible way of
saying things that emnrnauds atten
tion. He has a nasal twang, and is
abrupt and homely in his expressions.
He reads the Bible carelessly, nml in
the rapidity of his utterance blunders
and boggles and corrects himself from
time to time. He seldom speaks* over
twenty minutes at one time, and wheh
there is the slightest mi easiness he
pauses and calls upon Air. Sankey to
sing. He has no suavity in his meth
ods of address. He rises nervously
with a jerk ami says: “1 Want you to
keep still while tho solo is sung. You
cannot hear Air. Sankey unless you
are quiet. AVhen the chorus is suns
you can move about if you want to.”
Take away the surroundings, tho ex
citement, the sympathy of the church
es and tho crowd, and Air. Moody’s
address would make a very fair pray
er meeting exhortation. It is easy to
see that the magnetic power, of the
meeting is in the hands of Mr.
Sankey People cannot hear Air.
Aloody at the further end of the rink.
And people will not keep still when
they cannot hear. So people jostle
and move, rise, sit, go out and conic
in. But the moment it is announced
that Mr. H.uiln'v is to sing evervtliiia
IS hushed. !'j ■is vrrv me-i- j. a.- 1 !
vi iv - vmpath .i • V. ‘ he is ;; i -f a
auii in- plans w in id. He ton, ,
es tbe instrument -i and -pans, s. in .
everybody may !. ,\io qn, t. Hi
often prefaces hi s ,ngs with a few
pleasant words. He often offers a
short prayer for a blessing on the;
song to be sung. W hen all are hush
ed he commences. He is an eloen
tionisf. of Song. He sings high, he ;
sings low, he sings rapid, he sings
soft, and effectively, uses the rhetor-!
ical pause. All these follow each oth- :
or with great rapidity, and are all
highly effective. He cuts his words
short, with an evident intention. The j
lino "Jesus of Nazareth passeth by,”
is sung as “Jose of Nazer pass’thu
by.” Nobody but.Sankey could sing!
that by mil to the music. The closing
lines are snug: “Too 1-a-t-e, too
1-a-t-e,” with a long drawn emphasis j
on the last late. His voice is full and j
strong, and his enunciation is exceed- j
i ugly clear and distinct. His voice
has in it an element better described
by the word Alethodistic than by any |
other. Air. Sankey is a largesized, |
finely developed mail, with sandy
hair and whiskers, plessant face and
pleasant address, with a winning way
that finds a welcome at once to every j
heart. The singing with a full churns j
is very effective. But there is noth
ing iu it that is new or in any way i
unlike the better form of our Sunday-!
school singing. There is not a school
in Brooklyn that could not go up on
to the platform and make a good
chorus choir.
The Sack Tree.
A notable tree is tho sack tree, of
Western India, the inner bark of
which form very good material for
sacking, and also for cordage. It of
ten attains a height of 100 feet, with a
diameter of six. The native method
of making sacks of this material is
very simple. Usually about one foot
iu diameter is chosen, and from this
a section of the length desired for the
sack is cui. This log is steed for
some time in water, in order to
soften the bark, and is then beaten
with clubs. In this way the outer
bark is removed, and the inner de
tatohed amt rendered soft and pliable.
Next, it is folded over Oil itself at end,
like skinning a squirrel, and turned
inside out. All that is required to
complete the sack is, that one of the
ends bo sewed up, which is readily
done. But a sack may be made with
out stitch or seam. This is done by
arresting the process of skinning some
two or three inches above the further
end of the log, and thou sawing off
the latter at that point. The sacks
are extensively used in Western In
dia, Ceylon, and servo their purpose
well. The same material is some
times employed in the manufacture
of clothing and for paper-making.
To prepare it for the former purpose,
the baric s stripped off in pieces,
which arc than thrtroughly soaked j
and beaten out till the topi:are be-j
conn cite and rough like. fur. ! t
then cut according .. to the required
shapes, and stitched together.
An old farmer, living in the State
of Vermont, was iu the habit of loan
ing money at usurious rate. He was,
moreover, a strict church member.
One day a neighbor called on him for
the purpose of negotiating a loan.
The old farmer informed iiiui that he
could have the money at tha rate of
nine per cent. “Nine per cent!” ex
claimed the astonished neighbor;
“why that can’t agree with your prin
ciple of Christianity. What will the
Lord say when he looks down from
above and sees you charge nine per
cent, when the legal rate is only six?”
“All! but,” exclaimed the farmer,
“when the Looks down from above,
tho figures will be reversed, and the
nine will look just like a six.”
The Bridal Tour.
rtOTV PETER WHITE MADE THE AOOI'AIXr-
AN'CE OF HIS MOTHER-IN-LAW.
(From tlio Detroit Free Press.)
There were three of them. One
was a brido, the other a groom with
red ears and maiden whiskers, and
the third was the bride’s mother.
1 They were at the Grand Trunk De
pot yesterday morning to take the
j train West. The young man clasped
I his young wife’s fat hand, rolled up
( his eyes, and they seemed happy,
while the mother-in-law paraded up
and down tho sitting-room with lord
ly ah' and seemed well satisfied.
Pretty soon the groom went out, and
when he returned he threw five pop
corn balls and a big bar of peanut
candy into the bride’s lap and hand
ed the old lady another. She turned
up her nose, raised her spectacles,
and thus addressed tho young man
with red ears:
“See here, Peter AVhite, you are
married to Sabintha, ain’t ye ?”
“Why, of course.”
“And I have a right to an interest
in yon?”
“Of course.”
“And we are now on your bridal
tower, ain’t we ?”
“Yes.”
“Well, now, you’ve been squander
ing money all along, Peter. You took
a hack, you bought oysters, you
bought a jack-knife, and you’ve just
thrown money away. I feel that it
is my duty to tell you to bold up be
fore you make a fool of yourself!”
“Whose money is this?” he asked,
growing v, ry red in the face.
“h -'. 'ours, and what is yc. lira is
. i it is my duty as her
.1, out when I sec yon
a- o money away.’’
! jrmss 1 can take care of my
,! 1 .:, y!” he retorted.
“Perhaps you can Peter AVhite,
but there arc those* in your family
who can't.”
He struggle 1 with his feelings as
the bride shook her lfead at him, and
then aijked:
“Did I marry you?”
“No, sir, you didn’t, you little bow
legged apology for a man, but I have
a right to speak for my daughter.”
“You can speak all you want to,
but I want you to understand that 1
can manage my own affairs, and that
I don’t care for vour advice.”
“Peter White,” she slowly respond
ed, waving the peanut candy close to
his nose, “I see we’ve got to have a
fuss, and we might as well have it
now.”
“Ala I rat!” whispered the bride,
pulling at the old lady's shawl.
“You needn’t inn me, Sabintha!
This Peter White has deceived us both
about his temper, and I’m going to
tell him just whit I think of him!
He commenced this fuss, and well
see who’ll end it!”
“You mind your business and I’ll
attend to mine !” growled Peter.
“Oil! you humped backed hypo
crite!” she hissed, jobbing at his eye .
with the peanut-bar. “Only a month
ago you called me “Mother Hull, and
was going to give me the best room |
in the new house !”
“You’ll never have a room in a
house of mine !” he exclaimed.
“And I don’t want one, you red
eared hypocrite!”
“Don’t, Peter —don’t ma !” sobbed
the bride.
“It’s my duty, Sabintha; it’s your
mother’s !”
“Don’t cry, Sabby,” ho interrupt
ed; “don’t mine! wlmt she says.”
“Try to set my daughter up agiu
me, will you ?” hissed the old lady as
she brought the peanut-bar down on
his nose.
“Oh, ma !” yelled the bride.
“You old wretch 1” hissed Peter, as
he clawed at her.
“None of the AYliites will ever run
over me !” exclaimed the mother-in
law, as she got hold of his shirt-col
lar and,hauled him around.
“I’ll knock your old !”
“You can’t knock nothing!” she
interrupted, backing him against the
table.
“Ma! Oh-h-h ! ma !” howled Sabiu
tha.
The dozen other passengers in the
room, who had been interested ana
amused listeners, bereinterunted, and
Peter was released from the old lady’s
grasp, his collar having been torn off
and his cheek scratched.
“I expected this and prepared for
it!” panted the mother-in-law as she
leaned against the wall. “This
doesn’t end it by any means ! This
bridal tower will come to a stop to
morniiv. mid (lieu we’ll see whether
I’v. .c a ,:i ay 1 . ness to speak lip for
Sabintha or not!”
As the : rain moved away the old
lailv wore a grim smile, Sabintha was
weeping, and Peter was struggling
with another paper collar.
An old lady residing in Ohio lost
the companion with whom she had
jogged for many years. She neglect
ed to mark tho spot of his burial by
even a stone. Not long after, coming
into possession of a small legacy, a
sister of the deceased said to her, “1
suppose you will Tpnt up a stone for
Daniel?” Her answer was a settler;
“If the Lord wants anything of Dan
iel at the resnrection, I guess he
can find him without a guide
board.”
We don’t know that it was the epi
zootic that afflicted him; but he said
with some violence, “If that nose
were running for office, it would he
elected by a handsome majority.
A Texas Tragedy.
a oiiu.’k fickleness and a lover’s dks-
I’Ellli'noN TWO BLOODY DEATHS,
AND AI.L FOR I.OVE.
(From the Atlanta Constitution.)
Dr. Spalding, of Kimball, Texas,
writing to liis brother, Rev. Dr.
Spalding, of this city, says:
I wish to write you this morning a
truthful account of a tragedy which
! transpired here a few days ago.
There is a wealthy farmer living
| three miles below Kimball, on the
west side of tho Brazos river, near
Powell Dale church. His name is
G. D. Greer. Ho lias several hrolh
! ers living here—wealthy, influential,
good citizens. They came originally
1 from Georgia. He had two daugh
ters just grown— Miss. AVillio, oigld
j een years old, and Aliss Nannie, six
j teen—both handsome, intelligent,
amiable, and beloved by all who
j knew them. The oldest was an un
| usually sweet girl. She always re
minded me of Aliss Julia B. daughter
[of Judge J. J. 8., of Aladison, Ga.
[ She joined tho Baptist church last
j summer. She was, in fact, every
f thing, that any man could wish in*a
daughter.
j About 12 months ago a distant rel
ative of Capt. Greer’s first wife (the
j gills were children of a second mar
riage,) Robert Simms, a young man,
a stock raiser, passed through hereon
his way to Colorado, to which place j
|he was driving his herds. Stopping '
j among his relatives lie became
ENAMORED WITH MISS GREER.
Whether they were engaged or not
|is not certainly known. She proba-:
j bly*lovod him, as perhaps anv sweet
girl eighteen years of age. would love !
a handsome, fearless, rich young man
who li ight court her love. And yet
she feared him, for he had killed a j
man in a difficulty, so it. is said, in the ;
southwest portion of the State. He
went away, however, wearing her
ring and she wearing his. lie kept j
up a correspondence with one of his !
uncles, to whom he seemed to be;
very much attached.
Eight months ago, a young, good
| looking, tall, egotisic, self-reliant, :
! Baltimore chap, secured board at Es- j
| quire Lane’s (seven miles below the
! home of Captain Greer- -the father of
Aliss Greer), and commenced the
: practice of physic. He met Aliss!
i Greer, courted her iu that (to the la
; dies) irresistible manner for w hich he !
: was just fitted.
THEY BECAME ENGAGED,
and were to be married on the lltliofi
November, 1.875. Saturday morning, j
October 23, Aliss Greer came to town
to make some minor purchases for!
the occasion. Her father had gone j
with his cotton crop to Dallas, and
was to return that evening. He was
bringing her bridal outfit. On the j
Thursday before, Bob Simms return
ed, having received a letter from his |
uncle stating that Aliss Greer was!
soon to be married. He called on
Miss Greer, found out the state of her
feelings, chided her, told her they!
were made for each other, and that!
no other man should ever claim her j
as wife.
Saturday morning he gave a friend,,
with Avhom he was staying, a letter j
from his sister saying, “Answer this '
letter to-morrow if I do not return.
I am going up to Capt. Greer’s, and
if I never return wind up my busi- j
ness.”
HE WENT OVER,
called for Aliss Willie, who was with
her mother and Dr. Frazer, her be
trothed, in the sitting room. When
asked for Aliss "Willie said: “Doctor, j
have you your pistol, lam afraid of I
Bob; ho said he would kill mo; shall I
go in ?” The doctor said, “I am not i
armed, go in if you like.” All three '
then went in.
Simms asked Aliss AVillio to walk j
out on the back porch, as he wished
to have a good-bye chat with her.
j She went out on tho back gallery; lie I
followed, pulling the door too after ;
him. The mother heard them con
versing and heard him say: “And you j
! are the cause of it;” heard her sob;
heard her say, “O, don’t do that,
Bob.” Then
BANO 1 BANG ! BANG 1
went his six shooter; then a pause,
then bang again. The mother threw
open the door. There lay her beau- J
tifill (laughter dead on the gallery.
One shot entered near the heart, (the !
first I think) one entered the. left eve
and came out at the back of her head,
the other entered the centre of the j
forehead and came out also at the
hack of the head. He must have!
supported her wit h his left hand while
shooting her.
Near her lav Robert Simms. The
fourth shot he had fired through his
own head, from back to front. The
doctor run out, turned the murderer’s
horse loose and ran to the next house’
to get a gun. A runner was sent to
meet her father who was a few miles
off on the Dallas road, coming home.!
His agony, l hope, neither you nor 1
may ever have.
Next, day, Sunday, they brought!
her body here to Kimball and bulled :
it. Hin body they carried to a grave- j
yard near Rowell’s Dale, where it was [
buried. AVe are all sad, for we all 1
knew her.
Dr. Russel, the Glasglow Medical
Officer of Health, reports that in sev- j
en recent outbreaks of typhoid fever j
in that city milk was found to bo tin
active agent in carrying the contn-;
gion.
