FiyssJ Tho remamdor of'tlie* parly who have been searching for the treasure j supposed to have bleu hid by the Pir •Hto Bell, near Sarasota Bay. passed up ; the J., 1\ kM. Railroad oil Monday 1 night. The party consisted of some twenty men from Washington county, Georgia, and a reporter of the New j \ork lla raid. They were all bound tn sceiTcy and'therefore it was ioipossi ble to elicit any positive information j from them. A Press reporter inter- viewed them and learned the facts np •"n which they based their search- Ac cordin'; to their representation. 1 Jel 1 and his associates captured a Spanish vessel rich in treasure, 'which they hid on an island in Sarasota Bay. There were some twenty pirates interested in tne treasure. Subsequently Bell, un der a proclamutcpu from ,t ( !io Presi dent, carried ’ his . schooner to Wil mington, and went ashore to commu nicate with the gpvermeiit. While he was ashore, the crew rebelled, hoisted anchor and set ssils’for Sarasota Bay, : intending to find and take possession of the treasure. They were wrecked j off the cost of Florida and the whole i crew perished, leaving Bell the only living person who knew the locality of j the treasury. He afterwards made a visit to the island, and carried j 1 hence one box of the plunder. Subse quently he paid a second visit, but find ing lie was watched, and being very ap- ] preheusive of danger, he did not recov er the valuables. In these expeditions | he carried a friend. Bell finally died I rit St. Marks, leaving his friend the | only possessor of the secret. This j man upon his death bed revealed the secret, and turned the maps and notes j locating the spot where the tresnre | was buried, which he lmd received I from Bell, over to a member of this party. This gentleman sold shares in ihe enterprise to others, so, that in this effort tb Tecover the supposed tresnre. there were no less than twen ty engaged. The only itoin wc could obtain respecting the issuo of the ven ture, was the declaration of one of the party that they were not without some success. The reporter of the Herald states that the obligation to secrecy would soon lie removed, when every tniug would be revealed. It is said that 15,000,000 boxes of blacking are annually manufactured ill the United States. Tho Georgia ami Florida Boun dary. r.vii.H onmofid n:oM-Tin: estaCi,ishmi:xt wnn-WUITNEIt I,INK. In the original treaty between ! Spain n 11*1 tho United States, it ’.vas agreed that the lino between tlie prov ince of Florida and tho possessions of ' the United States—or the State of Georgia—should he straight line, run from the ,“birth-place of the St. Ma ry’s river,” or in other words, from its head waters, to the junction of tho Flint and the Chattahoochee rivers. Elliott was sent at the head of a party to establish tho line. He went up the St. Mary’s within a few miles of the Okefeudkee swamp, and as the Indians were hostile at that time, was afraid to go further in search of •the bead of the river,- and concluded that it rose in tiles Okefenokeo, and consequently selected an eligible point near the Swamp, and threw up what is now known ae “Elliott's mound.” i From this point the lino was snbse | quently run by Watson, and is known to-day as tho Watson line. This for a number of years, was recognized as j the line. Another, the McNeil line, j was also afterwards run, and just I south of Valdosta the latter is six j hundred yards north of the Watson line. The Georgia surveyor run off what was originally Irwin county iu | to 41)0 acre lots, and the surveyor ran down to the Florida line. The then territory of Florida was also survey- , '‘ed off into sections or lots, and the Watson line was recognized by them. The original settlers of the countv bought from the State of Georgia i these lands, running to the Watson | line, arid have to-day the State’s: I parchment, or plot and grant, to tho j property. j Subsequently, from some cause;:, I unknown to ns now, a dispute arose • ! between the two States as the proper j line—Georgia claiming Watson, and (Florida the McNeil line. Orr, of Georgia, and Whitner, of Florida, were appointed by the respective! Legislatures of the two States to run a line across, according to the origi nal treaty, Florida Legislature pass ing a resolution to agree to tho line,! provided it did not run below tho Wat-. son line, both States agreeing to se cure the owners of the land along the line in their rights. The line was run, Whitner, we are told by parties along the line, doing the field work, and Orr, ( of Georgia, the hunting for the party. J The-line missed the objective point I something to, or about a half a mile north—throwing a long strip of Geor -1 gia -a part, that Florida did not claim ! —below the Vine. The Georgs Leg isle tn re, thinking it a small matter, i agreed to the line—thus giving away more than was claimed. Subsequent to this, Congress pass ed an act, donating to the struggling ; Georgia ind Pensacola Railroad, ev ery odd lot or section of government land within fifteen miles of the road. ' With this was claimed some of this land above tho Watson lino whic h ! Georgia hud sold to her citizens. The railroad sold thebe lands and now there is a contention as to the owiier ! ship. Wo know of several parties ; who have tho wax and seal of Gcor- , i gia with their claim of deeds, and otli- \ er parties are claiming the identical land with what is known in Florida as a railroad title. i Now what is to he done in the mat | ter ? Is Georgia thus to allow a part j of her territory, and a part of her eii ! izous taken away, and seo them lose their land ? .Settling this boundary question in j ! this manner was a disgraceful surren der of legal rights. If wan done in a j j hurry—was considered a small mat ter, u(.t now her former citizens, ma ' nv of whom were citizens by birth and j by purchase, and choice, have been i cut off, ask, the State of their unwill- j ing adoption is allowing them to suf fer by this railroad donation. ! This question should here-opened | and if possible the proper line estab ! lished. But if nothing more, steps J ought to be taken by :he State to ie i cure those parties in their rightful I possessions. They have a deed from ; Georgia, and Georgia ought to be re j sponsible for the title.—l 'uUloda Tune*. j A Sad and Fatal Mistake, — *A la | mentable catastrophe occurred in Now : Orleans on Wedcusday, resulting in ! the death of two old widow Indies, Mrs. Marie L. Vincent and Mrs. J. B. ; Meyenr. The old ladles lived togeth r ; or, with two adopted boys, and carried jon a laundry as a means of making a livelihood. On Wednesday Mrs Vin cent prepared t lie dinner for the family I one of the dishes being stewed tripe j and potatoes. .Shortly after partaking j of it both the old ladies were seized with severe Vomiting. The little boys returned from school, but were so dis-, tressed at finding their foster-mothers I ill that they neglected their dinner. Medical aid was summoned, but with out avail. Mrs. Vincent expired the same evening, while Mrs. Meyeur lin gered until the next morning, when she also died. The dish of tripe, which had been set away for the chil dren, was given to a cat and dog, both of which were soon unable to move I about. A few days before the ’sad occur ence,one of the old ladies had purclms-. ed a quantity of oxalic acid, which, in ! its crystalized state, closely resembles j ypsoin salts, and Wiight bo mistaken for salt. It is supposed that by mis- ! take this deadly poison was used in [ seasoning the dish of tripe.— Saeaiif] null Xeicts. QUITMAN, GA., THURSDAY, MARCH 2, 1876. PLAYING CARDS FOR A NY IFF. Two Husbands <>r u%o name Woman in the Dispute. A VKBV CLOSE GAME OF KTCHKE FOB THF. won ix iiotu loved —thefaikphize HEIISEI.F LOOKINO OVISII THE CA UD-PLAVEIis' SHOPLDEHB. Louis Lange, an industrious barber, while at a picnic in tho suburbs of Williamsburgh, five years ago, met Miss Annie Hortr.man of Hudson j City, and, after two weeks’ courtship, married her in the fall of 1871. After j tho ceremony they discovered that j they were altogether unsuited to each other, and in a rage ho ouo morning started for Chicago, where he re mained till a few weeks ago. Then he returned hoping to effect a recon ciliation with his wife. Mrs. Lange, however, had, after two years of single life, accepted the ! attentions of Claus Doseher, who at ' her previous marriage acted ns Lange’s groomsman, and in 1874, they were married, she not,then knowing wheth-J er Lange was dead or alive. On Sunday afternoon Lange and a friend went to 154 Johnson Avenue, j aud found Mrs. Lauge-Dosclier. She j cordially invited Mr. Feist (the friend) ! in, and then seeing Mr. Lange, with out a change of countenance extended j her hand and exclaimed, “Why Louis j 1 Lange, walk right in ; you are wcl-' come, and bringing forward a chair I invited him to be seated.” Before he : ! could sit down, however, Henry Hurts-! man, tho woman’s brother, accused Lange of being a scoundrel in return ing to bring misery on a woman lie ! had deserted. lioi tsman npproaelied and flic two clinched. The woman and Feist separated them. It was ' then agreed that Lange and Feist should withdraw for an hour, during which time Ilortsmnn was to find I Doseher, bring him home and the two husbands were to settle the trou ble. In an Lour the congress met. Lange and Doseher after looking at one another for a moment shook hands. ‘ Feist, then, on behalf of Langs, pro posed to open the subject,, but Dos eher objected, and said if Lange would retire with him into an adjoining room, they would talk the matter over. Mrs. Lauge-Dosclier had mean while produced a measure of beer. The conference lasted twenty minutes, high words occurring twice. The men returned smiling, mid Lange said, “Well, the thing is settled. We are going into the saloon and play a game of euchre to see which is to have her.” The woman, though she did not seem to like it, acquiesced, but ac companied Doseher. The players faced each other at the . table. The woman sat at the head, while Feist sat in the rear of Lange, as Hortsman did behind Doseher. With the cards tho Landlord brought, a round of beer, which was drank, ami the men cut for tho deni, Lange winning aud scoring one point. Dos eher then handled the cards, and in play made a march. Lange in his I next deni was uot so successful, being ■ euchred with three good trumps in his hand. Doseher then scored an- j other point, making the game stand live points in his favor to one point for Lange. Doseher Best forfeited liia inning | on account of n- [uni passing , over the curds Lange was enabled t<>■ score one on bis own deal and two on Dosehor’s next deal. By two bucees i sive euchres Doseher then scored four ! points, making nine points of the ten Übuessary to win. Tho woman, worked up to a great state of excitement, 1 moved to the side of Doseher, and resting her arm on his shoulder, watched him anxiously as ho distrib-. "ted thtfcnrds for the iie,\t inning, on I which Lange won one point. On hire own deal, which followed, he made a : march, and one point.in each of the two following deals, so that on the thirteenth deal, one having been for feited, the score stood nine points ■ cash. > .. Doseher was decidedly nervous when he took up the cards, and he called for a schooner of beer, which he drank with feverish haste, and then, after the cards had been cut, dealt them slowly. lie gave Lange the knave (right bower), queen, and nine spot of clubs, and the knave and ten spot of hearts; to himself the nee and king of clubs, the knave of spades (left bower), the king and queen of hearts, turning up as trumps the ten of clubs. Lange ordered him up, and led with the knave of hearts. Dos clier tool; tins with his king, amt threw out his ace of trumps, which which Lange of course covered with his right bower, leading his ten spot, of hearts. Doseher having discarded his queen, took the trick with the ten spot of trumps and led out his king, to which Lange’s nine spot was a speedy captive, and the left bower being then show n Lange leaped from his chair and charged that Doseher had stocked the cards. A quarrel seemed imminent, but the sight of another round of beer induced him to sit down, and while quaffing it he said, “I’ll take that all hack; if she’s worth gambling for she ain’t worth ligb ing for, so Doseher I wish you ■joy of her,” At midnight they separated in the j best of temper toward each other, j Lange swearing that he would not put j a straw in iLmr y>uj. —A’. 1. Sun.' GFO/I(iIA. Oiio of the Best States of the South. HOW IT IIAB BEEN CUIISED WITH REPUBLI CAN MISRULE —ITS LANDS, CLIMATP AND PROSPECT- —THE PEOPLE ALL I'OR PEACE. [ fbrrefipoii.\euco of the Davenport (Iowa) Democrat.] Atlanva, Ga., Jan. 9, 187(1 Georgia though old in years, is when properly considered, almost a new State—in her swaddling clothes compared with will what sho will he in 15 or 20 years, nod with what she would have been had not the w ar dis troyed her established system of la bor. It no doubt greatly chocked her general development for the time be ing, but in time more marked and sat isfactory results all feel are certain to follow, 1 say all, and, that includes the old slave owners. While they thonglit the freeing of their slaves was a terrible calamity, lliey are rc cancHtd to the natural fate of the war aud concede that the future of Geor gia is as bright as tho sun at noon day. It is impossible for you, or for a northern farmer to appreciate, or understand the disorganized condi tion of the labor of the South for years after peace was declared. The former slaves soon passed under the 1 control of bad men. a class, made up of corrupt, broken down, Northern i politicians, tho scum of the South, and uot a smallnpiota of Southerners who ! had not the courage, and manhood to ( assist their people in their struggle | for what the masses 1 rlithfully believ ed was just and righteous. The brave lighting men of the South ignored those who talked, or who would not 'go into the ranks. Asa consequence I ! many of these during the first years ‘ of reconstruction openly gave their ' influence to the administration, not I for good, but because of the picklings in sight. However, I must for fear | <>f giving you a wrong impression add there were some of tin very best men j of the south in Georgia who gave the weight af their influence ill the same ! direction, hoping for liberal magna nimity from those who were the rep ! resentatives of the winning side. With this explanation I say that the administration party of the South was largely composed of the former slaves —newly made citizens, without any knowledge of political economy, and ever ready to believe and do all any government officer or designing white j friend fold them to do. This with -the fact that tho bravo spirits, the master spirits of the southern army, 1 even after repeated assurances that they had given up fighting, and were ready, and would support loyally the’ United States Government, were not only entirely ignored, but looked up on with fear and contempt. I saw it all, ns you know I came south as the war closed. I could riot understand —was not for a long time willing to ! believe, that my Northern army friends were wanting in liberality, iu magnanimity, until oft repeated in sults to this people, made mu feel for them. I could but acknowledge, 1 when piuuod to the wall, that this | and that treatment was not right—i that it was not what they should re- j ceivo. They bore persecution until ; their pride forced them to shun, for a time, intercourse wilh Northern per sons, not because of a natural hatred, 1 but tho fear of having to repel uugen-1 eroils and uncalled for dings. 1 1 thought then, and now think, that, j had the dominant, party made an ef- j fort to bring unto the Government trace**, iu any general way, the con troling men of the Confederate army; I men who fought bravely for conceived i rights, and who were not oulj from j necessity the friends of the Union from the day peace was declared, hut because they could hut believe tho best interests of themselves, their blighted country, and its people would, beyond all question he the better subserved by an earnest, generous support of the old govern ment. As the only real cause of trou ble was forever wiped out, they then had nothing to look forward to lmt the hope of being magnanimously treated. Had such a policy been pur sued Georgia would have been, iu 18(38 or 18(39, in a prosperous condi tionl The fact cannot he ignored taut the best men, the true men, the i honest then, will in time control the actions of every community, and the political machinery of our local, ’State and general government. Such men ! have for some time, and are, now, | managing our local and State govern ment—all wisely and economically. The present Governor of the State is respected and honored, its legislative bodies composed of men of thought, —men impressed with the responsi- J bilit.y of their positions. They make j laws for the good of all—not for a ekiss. The white man as well as the colored man is thought of, and not more the one than the other. The rights of both are fostered and looked after. The State finances are in a ; healthy condition, and due care is ta ken to keep all things well. Tho po litical cry in Georgia is, who is the. best man for Governor, who w ill man-, age more pruddutly the State govern- ; ment, who will command the greatest i confidence at home and abroad? A very general spirit of toleration is preached and practiced. Immigra tion is sought- for, and all newcomers, are iivated cordially—particularly ; Northern parties. Yon may question Imy judgment, but I believe as a peo ple they would resent insults to a j Norther* man with more firmness j j than.<lioy would a general insult to 1 I a neighborhood of their own people, | ! Amply because of the oft ropoati and in- ; f stitutious of a certain itinerant divine : | and other sensational persons that no 1 j Northern person is safe 15 miles from j Atlanta, neither would be, or should | they, if they made it a pleasure to j i pander to, and to excite the suspi | cions and credulity of the colored i people, when it can but cause neigh borhood troubles. I have by several parties been writ- i ten to, to know if there was not fear j of insurrections in Georgia. Not at; all; not nearly ns much so as in the days of slavery. The only semblance to anything of the kind was a fight in Washington county a few’ months since, growing out of a colored mass meeting. Tho leaders were speedily arrested, indicted, and prosecuted be fore Judge Ilorschel V. Johnson, (once a candidate for Vice President) j by the Attorney-General of the State, Governor Smith being present. The jury was composed of white men. 1 They found not guilty. It clearly ap | pearing that the light was with out j the slighest foundation in fact the ! Judge at once dismissed the cases, i For the past three years colored la- 1 bor has been much more reliable. Field hands have gradually learned ( : that it is unwise to be trying to bet- j ter their condition by a change of . place. The result is seen in the in- j creased Confidence of planter and of I the products raised. Though it cannot bo said of Geor gia as of Ohio that she is out of debt and has an enormous school fund, it can bo said that though she has a debt of 88,000,000, that she has assets which if sold would pay off the same and leave her a school fund of s2,- ! j 000,000.
