AUGUBTA, GA.
WEDNESDAY MORNING, MAY 18, 1870
PROFOUND QUIET.
Radical journals of the better class
are impressed with the fact that just so
soon as Forney had been paid an exorbi
tant sum of blood money, and just so soon
as Bullock and his gang had been re
manded to something like quiet, “ outrages
“ of all kinds suddenly ceased in the Stale of
“ Georgia." Honest men in Congress and
just men all over the land can not fail
to understand henceforth that the great
arch-rioters and Ku Klux, so far as this
Commonwealth is concerned, are Rufus
B. Bullock and John W. Forney. If
President Grant and his party are really
desirous of peace, let them hand Bullock
over to Gen. Terry to be dealt with, ala
Chap Norris, as a disturber of the public
tranquillity. Let them send Forney to
Delaware, there to be soundly whipped at
the pillory for striving to destroy the hap
piness, and perhaps the lives, of innocent
communities, for the miserable sum of SI,BOO.
Remove these and similar obstructions;
strike terror to the souls of the true cul
prits, and no more hideous yells will startle
the ears of truly loyal people with re
ports of “ Ku Klux outrages in Georgia.”
It is said that Lord Clive was indig
nant when the English Parliament brought
him to account for riches accumulated in
Hindostan. He retorted that millions had
been within his grasp, but he appro
priated just enough to astound the world
with his moderation. Gov. Scott, it is
said, wrathfully denies the imputation that
he has disreptuably made a million of
money in South Carolina, when the plun
dered sum really does not exceed $130,000.
John W- Forney caps the climax. He
might easily have milked Bullock of
$10,000; but he has so many political as
sassinations and fabrications oo hand that
he can afford to be as cheap as he is nasty.
So the sum of SI,BOO for stabbing the repu
tation of Georgia and slandering her people
was something more or less than “ moder
ation” —it was sublimely contemptible.
Hard. —The Chronicle and Sentinel, edi
torially treating of immigration to Sonth
Carolina, says:
“ Clearly, our Carolina friends must first
establish a sound and honest government,
and make stable their own population be
fore they can invite, successfully, immi
gration. Let them clear away Radical
misrule.”
Now, this is a bitter taunt, considering
that “ our Carolina friends ” have engaged
a Ca/rpenter to make anew Cabinet, and so
let the State go scot free of Radicalism.
As to stable government, that’s a horse of
another color.
An Odious Comparison.—ls France is
allowed to vote without restraint or com
pulsion it is nobody’s businest whether
France votes for the empire, or for a repub
lic pr for the Bourbons. That which con
cerns us as a free people is not for whom
France has voted, but whether France ac
tually enjoys the priceless boon of freedom
of election. Witli the facts now before us
we have no good reason to say she has not.
On the contrary, we have every reason to
say she has.— New York Herald.
Well a little touch of the “ priceless boon
of freedom of election” over here would
be nobody’s business in France. But they
manage these things better in Frauce.
Flanked —ls Sumner forces white peo
ple to be buried with black folks, a re
turn to the ancient system of body-burning
may be in order. But Sumner, ir. such a
miau uCOdiutK urJitfisa a uc»utcu' (fai A y >A;
incinerated at the same time. The fellow
who has just opened “Spring styles of
coffins” had better send a dead head sample,
without springs, to the Senatorial eunuch,
who, having no children himself, wants to
disgrace everybody eise’s children.
New England.—New England rules the
United States and Boston rules New Eng
land. He eis Wendell Phillips’ descrip
tion of Boston:
“ Boston is a city in which every tenth
person is a criminal and every seventh a
pauper. Three-quarters of our farms are
mortgaged for drink, two-thirds of the
pulpits are filled with drunkards, and the
bench of justice is nearly vacant because
one-half of the judges have died druuk
ards.”
Now, let somebody reform Boston. That
is our only hope.
A Conundrum.—The Journal of Com
merce doubts whether, if President Grant
should go before the people, this Spring,
with a plebiscite, asking for the approval of
all his past course and a vote of confidence
in his future administration, he would re
ceive a ratifying vote of five to one.
Oh yes. He could get ten to one if Hul
bert had the management of it. But the
“ priceless boon of free election ” would
send him to the gutter.
The Last Fashion.—Northern under
takers announce “ an opening in Spring
styles of coffins.” The grave-digger still
sticks to his old-fashioned openings. He
thinks this masquerade and foppery of
funeral display will soon run the thing into
the ground.
A Dream Come True.—Mr. Louis Mul
ler, who won the kingship at the Hchutzeu
fest, stated that two weeks ago he dreamed
that he would secure this honor.
[ Charleston News.
As every contesting Teuton had the very
same dreatn, somebody had to be a verit
able visi jnary.
Bryant.—Capt. J. E. Bryant denies
that there is anything like a political or
business partnership between him and
Pkinck The Washington correspondent
of the Baltimore Ornette made the charge.
We refer the matter to the correspondent
. aforesaid.
Sustained.—Mr. Forney says “Gov.”
Burdock has been “ sustained with extra
ordinary unity by the Republicans of the
General Assembly of Georgia.”
Yes, pretty much as Forney sustained
him—at so much a job.
How True —Donn Piatt writes to the
Cincinnati Commercial:
“ The wonderful energy exhibited by the
Bouthern people in struggling up <Vom the
utter ruin that followed the late civil war
Is one of the marvels of the day. While
contending against the blundering, unjust
acts of reconstruction, originating in hate
andcontinned through greed, that deprived
them of a voice and vote in laws now in
volving the business interests of the entire
country, the people have struggled manfully
and with success to a certain extent to
restore the national prosperity of their re
gion. In this no aid whatever has been
given by the General Government. On the
contrary, its acts have been aggressive to
the last extent, and it is no exaggeration to
say that the Government at Washington
has wrought more Injury to the South since
the war than it was able to effect daring
the conflict of arms.
“ It is the strangest folly that ever affect
ed a blind people.
' "—• "-The Paraguayan War; -
THE closing scenes—official reports
•FROM THE BRAZILIAN COMMANDER —THE
SURPRISE AND SLAUGHTER ON THE
AQULOABAN— LOPEZ’S FAMILY PRISONERS.
I uorre-pcmd» nee of the New York Hergkl.
Rjo Janeiro, Ajpril-7,
<?OMhe 31st oLMarefh in tty. cgfrespftud
ence forwarded'by the Patagonia, l fur
nished a translation of the only official
dispatches received up to that time relative
U) the closing scenes of the .Faraguayan
war. To-day, however, I am enabled to
send the official report of the brigadier
general who executed the operations which
resulted in the surprise and death of Lopez,
and with his report the Paraguayan war
passes from the province of your corre
spondent to the domain of the historian.
When Lopez left, hii camp, near Pana
dero, apparently forced thence by the ex
haustion of the wild oranges and palm
trees upon which his followers mainly sub
sisted, he abandoned all his sick and the
majority of the women, and hid away the
heavy cannon he had a k a river ford a few
miles off. And, in regard to hidden can
non, some twenty or thirty are believed to
have been buried at Ascurra, and many
others at various places, but the allies have
never been able to discover any of them, so
well the secret has been kept.
On leaving Panudero Lopez continued
his march northward along the east side of
the Mountains of Maracaju, as the Brazil
ians call them, or Amambahy, as the# are
known to the Paraguayans. He appears to
have had about 1,500 persons with him,
twenty small cannon and twenty or thirty
carts, conveying money, some food for
Lopez and his train, some arms and a little
ammunition. His draught oxen were few
and they were obliged to be sent backward
and forward to bring up the carts and
cannon. Lopez and his immediate suite
had their store of luxuries, but lived chief
ly on the milk of some sixteen cows belong-!
ing to Mrs. Lynch, and the remainder of
his followers had to find their food in the
woods, supplemented by a little beef when
ever a steer l>roko down and could not
work. All who could not keep up were
left to their doom of starvation to death,
and toward the last alt who could not
travel and hunt for food in the woods were
put to death, without exception.
Soon after Lopez started from Panadero
to march northward the news reached Gen.
Camara, theu at the Paraguay, at Concep
cion, remounting his cavalry and refitting.
This General at unge conceived the idea
that Lopez’s aim was to reach the aban
doned Brazilian village aud fort of Doura
dos, in Matto Grosso, where some cattle
could be got. Dourados lay about 150
miles to the north of Panadero and about
260 from Concepcion. Gen. Camara, with
some 1,500 cavalry, infantry and artillery,
determined to set out with forced marches
along the diagonal to Dourados, while a
similar force, to set out later, was to strike
the bush road, which Lopez was moving
along, and to keep close behind him, harass
ing his rear, but avoiding an engagement,
so that when Lopez would reach Dourados
both the Brazilian corps would be close to
him and could strike a decisive blow with
superior numbers.
Accordingly General Camara marched
northward towards the Paraguayan fort of
Bella Vista, on the frontier, occupied by a
Brazilian brigade, placed thereto guard the
Apa country, which he purposed to unite
with his, and take on to Dourados. How
ever, when not far from Bella Vista he got
word from the commander there that Lo
pez had not continued on the road to Dou
rados, but had left it aud turned to the
west to occupy an excellent camping
ground in the middle of the mountains, on
the south side of the Aquidaoan, just with
in Paraguayan territory. Only two roads
from it existed, one running west and
north to Dourados, which for a long dis
tance was cut through the bush, impene
trable, like all South American bush. Af
ter fifty or sixty miles the bush road d!vid-*
ed, one fork going to Dourados and the
other to Panadero. The other outlet led
in the opposite direction. Camara then
changed his plans; he ordered the brigade
at Bella Vista to inarch with all speed to
Dourados, get iuto the track there and
hurry down to occupy the fork of the road
and shut the outlet at that side, while he
himself marched with forced marches to
shut up the outlet at the other hide, to the
northwest of the Aquidaban, north of
which river Camara then was. On this
march Camara learned from a deserter that
hist march from rYmnenoinvi tiro a—
sett tree from attack lor some time. Cama
ra then determined to push on with a small
body, in the hope of surprising Lopez be-;
fore he anticipated any danger. Three
days inarch brought him to the mouth of
the outlet, and Lopez was shut up at that
side. Iu front of Lopez was the Aquida
hau and about three miles before it was the
Taquara. At the first river four cannon
wore planted to defend the crossing at the
ford leading to the camp; at the Taquara
ford were two cannon and about twelve
men as an outpost Some Brazilian caval
ry succeeded in crossing the Taquara dur
ing the night and at daybreak charged on
the outpost, securing the cannon belore
they could be fired.
An ambush placed in the bush road be
tween Lopez’s camp and the captured out
post secured an officer who gave valuable
information. One or two men of a party
escaped the ambush and hurried back to
Lopez ; Camara hastened to attack ; his in
fantry deployed upon the bank of the
Aquidaban and opened on the artillery on
the other side ; the cavalry and infantry
charged across the river, captured the can
non, routed a force arriving too late to re
inforce the defense, and, with the lancers
in front, debouched upon the open ground
where Lopez’s tents were pitched, and a
force of about four huudred meu drawn up
in column, himself at the head. According
to instructions the lancers divided and
swept round past the column to occupy
the mouth of the bush road and close the
trap, and while the Brazilian carbineers
(Spencer carbines) formed as they emerged
from the road from the ford to the camp,
the commander of the attacking troops,
with his staff and a few cavalry, charged
to engage the column and prevent Lopez
escaping. It watt a bold and a dangerous
act; but the carbineers came on in line,
enveloped the column, pouring their terrible
Are into it, and especially on the part where
. Lopez was. The starved and poorly armed
Paraguayans could do nothing against
such a fire. The slaughter was frightful,
and in a few minutes it was a sauve qui
pent. Lopez, with his staff and a few of his
body guard, made for the bush, followed
by the party of Brazilian officers and cav
alry who had devoted themselves to his
pursuit. In his flight he was wounded by
a corporal of cavalry, and his protectors
were cut down almost to a man. WheD he
reached the stream beyond which was the
thicket he threw himself from his horse,
waded it, bat was so exhausted that he fell
half fainting on the opposite bank. There
the Brazilian General summoned him to
surrender, and, on his striking with his
sword, ordered him to be disarmed, which
was scarcely done when Lopez died. Near
by a shallow grave was dug tor him, but
on Mrs. Lynch being brought back with
the body of their son, Colonel Francisco
Lopez, who was slain while commanding
an escort protecting Mrs. Lynch's flight,
and whom she and hes daughters and son
had taken up and washed, they dug a deep
grave, with the aid of the lids of cigar
boxes and deposited Lopez’s body at the
bottom, and above him that of the son
Thus, at least, the obsequies ol the father
and son were done by loving hands.
The fight, if light it could be called
where the victors’ loss was only seven
wounded men from the first to the last of
the conflicts of the day, was completely
decisive, as, besides a large number killed,
240 prisoners and 16 cannon were taken.
Very few of the force of Lopez coqld have
escaped, for the matted bnsh in one direc
tion and the precipitous hills in the other
which bounded the plain almost fenced it,
and the lance did the work of destruction
well. Escape by the rear bush road w&s
impossible, for the force sent round from
Bella Vista by way of Dourados to occupy
its end had by extraordinary marches en
tered it the same day and an outpost with
two cannon was routed ami the cannon
taken.
If the engagement with the starved and
miserably arpied force of Lopez wag not of
a nature to confer much honor on the well
fed and splendidly armed Brazilian troops
opposed to it, it must be admitted that the
latter troops displayed great energy, endur
ance and intrepidity in their marches and
attacks, and that General Camara has well
earned a high reputation by the ability of
his plans and the splendid manner in which
he carried them into effect so as to have
scarcely a loophole for the possibility of
failure.
Mrs. Lynch and her children, together
With the mother and sisters of Lopez,' are
looked for in Rio this month —at least
.-the last news from Ascunciou says such
Avas their destination. It |is said, how
ever, that their residence here i will be
.temporary, until the new Paraguayan Gov
ernment; will decide , fipon the policy of
permitting or forbidding their return. It
is likely, however, that Mrs. Lynch will go
to Europe to reside, aud it is believed no
obstacle will be put in her way.

THE RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE LIVER.
The liver has a very important part to perform in
the animal economy. Its function is twofold. The
fluid which it secretes tempers the blood and regu
lates the bowels, and upon the quantity and quality
of the secretion depends, in a great degree, the. adant
ation of the blood to the requirements of the system
and the duo removal of the refuse matter which re
maiqp in the intestines after the work of digostion
ha- been accomplished.
One of the principal uses of Hostettcr’s btomacb
Bitters Is to tone and control this somewhat unruly
organ. The anti-bilious properties of the preparation
are scarcely secondary to ils virtues as a stomachic.
Its operation upon the liver is not violent like that of
merenry, but gradual and gentle. Instead of creating
a sudden tumult in that sensitive gland, it regulates
its action by degrees. Hence, it is a taft remedy for
bilious disorders, while mercury, being a tremendous
excitant, is not. The more naturally and quietly a
diseased organ can be restored to its normal condition
the better, and it is the peculiar property of this
harmless vegetable alterative to reinforce aod regu
late without exciting or convu'sing.
The success which has attended it* use as a remedy
for affections of the liver is proverbial. Persons of a
bilious habit who take it habitually as a protection
against the attacks to which they are constitutionally
liable, pronounce it the best liver tonic is existence.
The symptoms of an approaching lit of biliousness
can hardly be mistaken. A pain in the right side or
under the shoulder blades, a saff.on tinge in the
whites of the eyss, sick headache, a feeling of drowsi
uecs, low spirits, loss of appetite, constipation and
general debility are among the usual indications of a
rnoihid condition of the liver, and as soon as they ap
pear the Bitters should be resorted to in order to
ward off more seribus consequences. m} 15-d*ctl

« LET US HAVE PEACE.”— THIS HAS
now become a world-wide aphorism, from Ma'ne to
Florida and from Texas to Astoria; the whole coun
try is familiar with the expression. Though a politi
cal phrase, ft is peculiarly applicable to the condition
of the body, when in a diseased stute.
There can be no peace if one organ of the animal
economy is deranged or out ol order; if the livrr is
involved, we have biliousness, sallowDess, u yellow
ish hue of the skin, swimming of the head, or vertigo
and jaundice; if the stomach is affected, It is shown
by languor, debility, imper. ect digestion, disgust for
food, acid iructations, etc , etc.
Ii cither of the above condition of things exists
there can be no peace until they are b-ought bank to
their normal condition of health; there is no remedy
in the whole Materia Medica more certain to effect
this desirable resul t than Solomons Bitters.

H.w to Eztorni.ate It!
H*v NG discovered a plan by which
the farmer and gardener can conquer and ex
terminate this great pest by agricultural pro
cess, with but little more than the ordinary
labor of cultivating land, I offer to any one
desiring the information, and who will pledge
themselves not to divulge the secret for any
consideration to another, to give them the plan
on receipt of FIVE DOLLARS —obligating
myself in every case to return the money, with
interest, if a failure.
This plan I discovered by actual operation,
and have found it to be successful, and needs
only to be presented to the intelligent mind to
obtain favor and adoption. 1 do not hesitate
to say that a hand by my process can tend at
least half the usual quantity of land of very bad
nut grass the first, and all that a hand can do
anywhere the next year.
What I call nut grass is a small black coooa
looking nut with numerous fibrous roots and
having « main one shooting out, farming an
other nut and blade of grass. These roots and
.the bottom of tfce blade resemble the young
cane root. >

None but No. 1 First Class Risks are accepted.
Terms strictly cash, with low rates and entire freedom from all complications u I
notes, interest, dividends and loans.
Contracts clear and definite. No possible chance for misrepresentation by I
or misunderstanding by policy holders.
The National has paid up cash capital of one million dollars, secured by depo* '.
iu the United States Treasury, beiug the largest paid up capital of any Life InsnrMt!
Company on the Continent. Not assets, like most Mutual Companies, with liaWlitia
piled along side of it, but its capital is something over and above, independent y
the reserve fund. Now, if the proper reserve from Premiums Paid has been midth
any Company, its policy holders will l>e secure, otherwise not. Capital secures mg.
agement, hence the larger the Capital pnt up on the contract, the greater the necessity
to manage it.
A purely Mutual Compauy has no capita*, and its surplus or excess of premia
charged in the first instance, after a year or two is returned (without interest) totiie
policy holders, and called dividends.
This so-called dividend, the National gives iu advance by not charging it ia the
first instance. By the Mutual Plan the policy holders insures the Company; by Uk
Stock Plan the Company Insures the policy Holder.
