Brother Phillips is an ingenious as well as a
wrathful man, but Senator Morton has headed
him. Brother Phillips is for putting the fif
teenth amendment of the constitution through
with the edge of the Bword. He calls upon
Congress to rebnke the “insolent vaporings of
Georgia,” and to “fcarve out of Hebei territory,
like Texas and Georgia, enough States to ratify
the amendment" Those are brother Phillips’
own words of peace and love; and we submit he

Now we can conceive bnt one possibly shorter

that is for Congress to adopt the amendment out

about the assent of the States. “What a man
does by his agent, he does by himself,” is a
maxim as old as common law; and here Congress
has actually employed certain States, under
promise of reward and fear of fatal punishment,
to amend the Constitution, in order to impose

Hon. J. M. Sr.ns: You aro aware our large
and spacious church was burned down in this
place same five weeks ago-—on the' 19th of
February. Since then our people have gone to

morning of Wednesday, the merenry indicated
thirty-eight, and probably fell somewhat lower
before sunrise. But the wind was fresh and the
air exceedingly dry, and we see no indications
that even tender garden vegetables were nipped.
We hear, however, that there was plenty of
ice in Atlanta and, in fact, as low down as
Bamesville, and frnits and vegetables were de
stroyed.
It is reported from some sections of Florida
and Southwestern Georgia that the long contin-
anco of cool weather has sickened and in some
instances killed the young cotton.

Spangler says that from tho tortureB he endured
he was mostly unconscious of tho proceedings
in tho case, and often knew nothing of what
was going on around him. When tho padded
hood was placed npon his head in prison, cover
ing over his eyes and tightened about his neck
and chest, with manacles already on both hands
and feet, ho was told it was by order of Secre
tary Stanton, tho subordinate thus excusing
himself for his action. After arriving at the

is their mode of demonstrating their tran,

they burn down their churches; then give noth

you read this letter before any audience you may
address,if not inconvenient,or if it does not con

find a generous-hearted friend who might be
pleased to help a poor struggling people, yon
will do ns a great favor to receive it for us; and
at the same time assure them our thanks, and
our prayers in their behalf. Wo are proud to
hear of your great success at the North, in the
cause of equal rights. Your friends here are
praying for you, and hops God may crown your
labors with abundant blessings. I have just
been down in Southwest Georgia to get one of
onr colored legislators out of jail. He has been
in prison sixty-four days, because he would not

Hon. F. n. Fyall. He told them he wonld re
main in jail till he rotted before he would for

full of colored men, for all kinds of falsely
charged offences. If Congress does not relieve
us before long, we wiU be compelled to relieve our
selves.
Should any kind-hoarted souls give you any
thing to help us with our church, please get
their names, so we can remember them for all
future time. Your co-laborer,

‘National
Negro Murdered in Houston Connty.
Henderson, Houston Co., April 12,18GD.
Editors Telegraph: A most shocking murder
was committed on Friday last, npon tho Thomp
son plantation, two miles west of this place, by
one Rufus Shannon, freedman. The murdered
man was Bill Thompson, brother-in-law to tho
murderer. The facts as related to mo are briefly
these:
Rufus, who possesses a turbulent and unhappy
spirit, was cruelly beating his own wife, tho sis
ter of Bill. Bill remonstrated with him" and re
marked, in as mild a manner as could have been
expected under tho circumstances, “If you in
tend to whip her get a switch, but don’t beat
her as you are doing.” Rufus cursed Bill, and
added, “I’ll beat you," and seizing what was
supposed to bo apiece of irrm, struck him upon
the side of the head, inflicting a wound of which
he died in less than 24 hours. Tho murderer,
conscious that ho had inflicted a wound upon
his victim which must prove fatal, fled, and np
to this writing is still at large.
It is to bo hoped for humanity's sake that
every man, white and black, who roads this no
tice, will endeavor to effect tho capture of this
murderer.
Rufus Shannon is a robust, stout man—about
35 years of age, 5 feet 8 or 0 inches high, very
black, wears a beard which is very thin and has
a very effeminate voice for a stout man.
It is supposed by parties hero that ho will
make his way to Calhoun county, whore most of
the former slaves of Shannon now resido. F.
The foregoing is clipped from the
Anti-Slavery Standard," of tho 10th inst., and
we copy it merely to show the character and an
imus of Turner. Wc are sorry to be forced to
believe him a mendacious and mischievous man.
For cxamplo : he charges the whites with burn
ing tho colored Methodist Church in this city,
when few doubt that the act of incendiarism
was perpetrated by some of the congregation
with whom Turner identifies himself. All that
is known is that they had long held possession
of a church, the title to which vested in certain
.trustees holding connection with the M. E.
Church South; that a mandamus from court
ordered them to deliver the church over to its
owners; that threats were current that tho de
livery should never take place, and that tho
church was fired at midnight and burned.
Again, of Fyall, who is in jail, if imprisoned
at all, is it for perjury ; and lastly, of Turners
threats to relievo himself, if Congress does not
interfere. Congress has not interfered, and
Turner has given us notice in advanco that ho
contemplates some violence. That he is medi
tating tho application of some remedies for
his imaginary wrongs not sanctioned by Con
gress or tho law. What they aro, wo aro not
informed; bnt wo see from the fate of tho
African Church that such threats are sometimes
executed. Ho voluntarily putsliimself in a hos
tile and incendiary attitude to tho community.
All this makes Tamer a very lit subject for spe
cial surveillance by the police and tho people.
If disorders occur we are forewarned whore to
look for the promoter. Wo advise Turner to bo
quiet and behave himself.

The river bluff at ibis place is estimated to
be 176 feet above the surface of the water. This
is a prominent object of attraction, and a favor
ite resort, especially daring the passage of
steamboats. Visitors are sure to be invited to
a promenade along this lofty precipice.
The ecclesiastical meeting which called us to
this place was finely represented by the clergy
and there was in attendance a number of prom
inent and influential laymen. Among these
maybe mentioned the Hon. J. J. Gresham, of
Macon; Col. Patterson, of Americas; CoL Jones,
of Cathbort; Col. Evans, of the Albany News;
Dr. Bryan, of Talbotton, and Judge Johnston,
of Columbus. The business of the body was
transacted in the most harmonious manner, and
when the hour of adjournment came all felt sad
to separate after a season of so much social and
religious enjoyment.
Cuthbert claims to have a population of 3500
—it numbers fifteen or twenty stores, and is the
seat of some attractive and costly residences,
among which are those of Mrs. Taylor, Mrs.
Thornton, Mrs. Gunn, Mrs. Douglas, Dr. Pow
ell, etc.
Considerable enthusiasm has been awakened
here by the projected scheme of a Railroad
from Columbus, via this point to Bainbridge.
The Legislature has, we believe, pledged two
millions for this enterprise, and if it redeems
all tho pledges it has made for public improve
ments, we apprehend the resources of the State
will be utterly exhausted.
Col. H. H. Jones is still conducting the
Cuthbert Appeal with his usual vigor and skill,
and is much cheered by the brightening pros
pects of his paper. Ho regards his advertising
department as equal in lucrativeness to any of
our jonmnls. We, with other friends, were in
vited on Monday to dine with the Colonel, where
we shared a rich repast, and where we partook
of our first plate of strawberries this season.
Wo spent tho night at the “People’s College,’
alias tho Andrew Female Collogo, which is under
the regime of that laborious, learned, and popu
lar President, the Rev. Dr. Hamilton. This in
stitution now numbers 150 pupils and bas at
tached to it a choice corps of teachers, one of
whom is a lady of elegant accomplishments from
Switzerland who teaches tho modem languages,
painting, drawing and needle-work. Tho college
edifice has a front of 300 feet in length, adorned
by ten tall Anted columns, and in connection
with it thero is a capacious chapel whore all the
public exorcises aro held. The grounds beforo
tho building are arranged with classic taste and
beauty. All the ordinary branches of a liberal
education are thoroughly taught here, and, in
addition, Ling’s celebrated system of physical
training has been introduced, with the mo3t ben
eficial results. A number of tho leading physi
cians of tho place have testified in a public card
that these daily exercises of tho limbs and mus
cles have proven effective cures for curvature of
tho spine, crooked backs, square shoulders,
pigeon-toes, incipient consumption, and count
less nervous disorders.

New countries have wants and habits peculiar
to themselves. In our widely extended and
sparsely settled territory, medicines ready pre
pared are more employed, and are, in fact, a
greater necessity than in the old countries. Dr.
Ayer’s preparations have given the public great
er confidence in this class of remedies than had
over been felt .before. Physicians, instead pf
discarding them, really favor the use of such
ready at hand antidotes for diseaso, when they
can be depended on. And we wish onr readers
to know that in publishing J. C. Ayer k Oofn-
advertisement, or any others of like ratiabi
character, we think we are furnishing them as
useful information as any with which we can
