Ofcft Superior.. Court was in session
last week, and two mdividuils were!
sentenced to the Penitentiary tor fbtir,
years, lor assisting iu breaking open ’
the jail. Tney were Robert Beard,:
(aiias Editor of the Midnight Reporter)
and McDaniel, an Indian. As tne
Reporter, as a matter of course is dis
continued, we presume it is an auspi
cious time for the resuscitation of the
Pioneer.
An unfortunate accident took place
in this town on Monday last. Mr.
James R. Kinney in topping some trees
in his yard, fell out of one a distance of
about 30 feet. He expired in about
3 hours. Mr. Kinney left a family
who was dependent on his industry a
lone for support. This is the second
violent death which has occurred in
(his town within the last 3 weeks. Mr,
Jesse Wisd m was killed against a sign
post, about three weeks since, in run
ning a race through the streets. He
also left a family to feel his loss.
HORRIBLE MURDER.
On Monday last, on Pine Log, in this
County, Mrs Morris was murdered by
an Indian and a negro which belonged
to the family. The Indian has as yet
escaped, but the negro and his wife
were yesterday lodged in jail.
A Noble Act. — We have heard
many pleasing incidents connected
with the late severe disaster which be
fel the Methodist Episcopal Church, in
the destruction of their ‘Book Con
cern,’ by fire, yet we know of no one
which has given more general satisfac
tion, than the act of the American
Bible Society. Knowing that the
Sabbath School under care of the
Methodist Church would be great
sufferers by the destruction of the
scriptures intended for their use,
the Board of Managers of the American
Bible Society, at their regular meet
ing fast evening, unanimously voted a
donation of five thousand Bible, and
ten thousand Testaments, for the use
* of the schools under the care of the
Methodist Episcopal Church.— jV. F.

The Steam Boat Free Trade, on

since died,and killed instantly another.
The mate Engineer, and three colored
men, were also badly scalded,but hopes
are entertained of their recovery.

him) —he said he had a wife and six
children. He had a letter in bis pos

Ninety dollars and eighty seven cent-;

OF THE
REPUBLIC A V &ERALD
i CONVICTION that the means
’k of informal ion are not commensu
rate with the wants and wishes of the
neople, connected with the growing
■<mportance of our town, has o*ignmed
•vith us the idea of establishing in Co
lumbus a pew weekly p ipm-, t-> be en«
itled the R-publican Hera F—to be
levoted to politics and general litera
ure. .a
We will endeavor to make tht Ht
,ild profitable and interestrhg, by k? p
iiig its readers informed of all impor
tant polilicai movements, both foreign
and domestic.
Devoted to the Union of the States,
we shill advocate with becoming zaal
and firmness these great a: j giori.)us
principles by which we believe it is to
be perpetuated. We look upon the
government that was established by
the toil, and sacrifice, and blood,of our
fathers, as upon the mother who gave
us birth—wit.) reverence and lovai It
is a holy tiling; and we willtoveand
support it as long as we continue to
love and respect ourselves.
In yielding our support to the Union
party of Georgia, however, we shall
not, under any circumstances, suffer
ourselves to be swayed by selfish or in
terested motives-—we shall adhere to
and support our principles, even at the
sacrifice of personal friendships and
{predilections.
We shall conscientiously and stren
uously oppose every measure which
we may deem calculated :o subvert the
liberties of the people or destroy the
Union of the States.
That the people are capablemf self
government, has been demonstrated,
and no longer admits of a doubt—that
cabalistic aids are unnecessary, follows
as a corollary. While, therefore, wo
sustain the fundamental principles of
the Union party, we shall feel it our du
ty on all occasions to oppose the dicta
tion of a few to the many.
Our columns shall be open to the free
and temperate discussion of a n e , Jc!l
subjects as are calculated to interest
an intelligent community—whether
the, be of a political, literary, religious
or commercial character. "
_ As caterers for the public taste, we
snail introduce into the columns of the
Herald as great an amount of miscella
neous and .geneial reading as may be
consistent with its political and com
mercialcharacter— not forgetting to in
voke the mufces in support of the’Poets’
Corner.
The Herald will also sustain the
agricultural and commercial interests
oi the country, and will publish a regu
lar and correct price current of all the
leading articles of produce and con
sumption.
Terms—The Herald wrll be
