THE CONSTITUTIONALIST
SATURDAY, May 15, 1875.
GEORGIA GENERAL NEWS.
Mr. Max CJolien, of Montezuma, is
the only Georgian that is marked as
“saved” on the list of the ill-fated
Schiller’s passengers.
Griffin News: Mr. James Hammond,
on Tuesday evening, had his thigh bro
ken from a kick given him by a horse.
His other leg is partially paralyzed from
a wound received during the war.
Gainesville Eagle: The Sulphur
Springs will be run this Summer by
Mr. J. Y. Johnson, who has had fifteen
years’ experience in hotel business,
and we are satisfied he will render full
satisfaction to all patrons. We are
glad this fine watering place is to be
opened.
A correspondent of the Courier-Jour
nal, writing from Savannah, says that
the city is ancient and seems to have
been turned over to the nineteenth cen
tury for safe keeping. If one wanted
to sleep every day twenty-two hours
out of the twenty-four, this place would
be admirably suited for the purpose;
but in such a case what could one do
with the other two hours?
Columbus Sun: Theatre-goers of
Columbus well know Katie Putnam,
the actress. Her troupe is now at Pat
terson, N. J. On Monday night she in
haled some chloroform from a hand
kerchief to induce sleep. Her heavy
breathing attracted the attention of a
companion, who aroused all the people
iu the hotel where they were stopping,
by announcing that Miss Putnam had
committed suicide. Physicians were
called in, and some exertion was requi
site to restore her to consciousness.
He expressed the opinion that a little
more of the narcotic would have killed
her.
Columbus Sun: Joseph J. Martin, of
Girard, has been sentenced to the Al
bany (New York) penitentiary for one
year for abstracting money from letters
while route agent on the Mobile and
Girard Railroad. He was arraigned be
fore the United States Circuit Court at
Montgomery on Tuesday, plead guilty
and was sentenced by Judge Bruce as
stated. The act was committed last
year. He is a young man, and was for
merly useful in marshaling the Radi
cal clans in Girard. We regret,
however, that anyone should get
into such trouble. * * There are
said to be several hundred thousand
dollars of money lying idle in
the bank vaults. For the good it does
the country it might as well bo in the
Atlantic. Few have. gilt edged paper
to draw it forth, and hence very little
is afloat. Capital has not gotten over
the big scare it received year before
last, and a dollar is watched after more
closely than one’s chances for salva
tion. Confidence may be restored after
awhile. The darkest hour is just be
fore the dawn, but when a fellow is
waiting for the light that dark hour
appears as long as a week of sunshine.
Griffin News: A day or two since a
notice appeared in these columns, stat
ing that a report was iu circulation iu
this city to the effect that a well
known cotton house had failed. We
do not take back that there was such a
report, for it was talked of here iu cot
ton and commercial circles, and as such
we gave it publicity. The Atlanta
lit raid, in an interview with Gen. Aus
tell, reports that gentleman as saying
that what we “had written and pub
lished was through malice,” etc. As
to what Gen. Austell says, we don’t
care a tinker’s copper, but if he really
means to say that in giving the report
publicity, we did it out of malice to
ward the firm, we pronounce his state
ment absolutely and unqualifiedly
without foundation. By yesterday’s
mail we received a letter from a mem
ber of the firm, in which he says “there
is not a shadow of truth in the rumor,”
and as such we cheerfully give the pub
lic the benefit of this statement. We
haye no war to make on the firm and
never have had, but when wo hear ru
mors so publicly talked of we shall
give them publication as matters of
news.
Gwinnett Herald: A negro, named
David Drummonds, who was living on
Df. Mathews’ farm, in Milton county,
attempted to commit rape upon a
young lady in that county, a short
time since. He went to her bed while
she was asleep. She at first thought it
was some of the family in the room,
and as soon as she ascertained who it
was, she gave an alarm and he fled.
He was arrested hist Saturday and
tied, and the guard started with him
to t.hc court ground. On their way
they stopped at Dr. Mathews’ for din
ner, and while the guard were at the
table the prisoner was sitting in the
door.* Seeding a good opportunity, he
suddenly sprang from the door and
made for the woods. He was pursued
at once and shot at six or seven times,
but he distanced his pursuers and
made good his escape. The neigh
borhood was immediately notified
and a large number of men were on
the watch; he, however, managed to
get across the river at Terry’s ferry
just before dark, and has not been
heard of since. Sheriff Patterson was
on the lookout for him in Gwinnett the
next day. He was raised in this couu
ty, and it is presumed* that he went
that night into his old neighborhood.
This class of cases are becoming too
frequent in the county, and some ex
amples will have tojbe made to teach
this class of our population the enor
mity of this crime.
An Indianapolis paper has a com
positor who habitually leaves out the
word “not,” and its myriad readers
can’t always tell which side the editor
is on.

SOUTH CAROLINA DEPARTMENT.
LETTER FROM EDGEFIELD CO.
The Late Cyclone—Repairing Dam
ages—The Condition of the Crops—
“ When Corn Exceeds Cotton There is
Plenty to Eat and Wear.”
(Special Corrospondonee Constitutionalist. 1
Edgefield Cos., S. C., May 13,1875.
On the first of the above date, at 4
o’clock p. m., a violent storm passed
through this section of country. It was
such as I have never before witnessed;
it blew down thousands of valuable
oaks, with an immense number of
pines, and upset houses. Some small
houses were thrown to the ground,
while the tops of others only fell. Some
gin houses were turned over and
crushed to pieces, though no finished
dwellings were injured; fences were
scattered in almost every direction. I
have heard of no one being killed, but
some badly hurt who are improving
very fast. Farmers were delayed sev
eral days making fences and reclearing
their laud. Some are now repairing
houses, while others are still cutting
and burning off trees in their fields. I
walked out one morniug soon after the
storm. Nothing could be heard but re
ports of hammers and axes. Vast
bodies of smoke could be seen in every
direction rising from the earth like a
cloud, as some farmers were not
through planting, and time was not to
be wasted. All were working manfully.
Most of the farmers in our part of the
country are about through planting.
The fruit is most all killed, and the
corn cut off by the frost iu April,
though where it has beeu worked well
it has come out and is looking well.
Corn crops are much larger this year
than cotton, but for some years past it
was all cotton and no corn ; but I see
where the corn crops have always ex
ceeded the cotton crops there has been
plenty to eat and to wear, farmers in
dependent ; and, for example, travel
through the portions of country form
erly called the Dutch Settlement, iu
Edgefield county, and I guarantee you
find it to be true. I know some farmers
not farther than a few miles distant
from my residence wiio have been going
in shoulder deep for cotton, and at the
•nd of ovmet annos it is impossible to
make both ends meet. I have often
heard men express their opinion of the
present condition of the country. They
all say we will never prosper unless we
raise our owu supplies at home ; but
they would still labor hard in the same
way. I must say, I can’t understand
them, for they talk one way and work
another. I must say much for grain,
most of it looking extremely well.
Wheat is heading out; oats are
very fine, and most of them are forward.
There has been more oats sown this
year than our farmers are accustomed
to sow. 1 know a farmer not more
than four miles distant who has sown
seventy acres in oats, and perhaps
most enough in wheat to make <no
hundred acres in small grain. Now
something for cotton and I will close.
Cotton which has been planted fifteen
days ago is now up to a beautiful
stand. We had a nice shower of rain
last Monday about 12 o’clock, which
did much good in favor of cotton, as
well as all other living plants.
Observer.
Sumter Southron: Wo regret to
make the sad announcement, this
week, that our highly respected
l’elioiv citizen, Col. John B. Moore,
expired on last Sunday, the 9th
instant, at his residence, near Cane
Savannah, in this county, after a pro
tracted period of intense suffering,
which he bore with manly fortitude,
patience and resignation. He was in
the very prime of life (only 46 years of
age,) and at the meridian of his useful
ness, when assailed and prostrated by
the terrible malady that has just con
signed him prematurely to tho grave.
Hale and robust in appearance, he
seemed to give promise of many years,
in the service of his family, friends
and but alas, the tokens
of health and strength were false
and delusive, and, while standing, no
doubt, as he had reasons to hope and
believe, in the midst of life, he was
treadiog unconsciously upon the thresh
old of death. He was the worth}'
son of an honored sire, the late vener
able Colonel John D. Moore, who meri
ted and enjoyed the universal respect
and affection of this community. The
son who has just passed away, succeed
ed to the esteem in which his worthy
father was held, cultivated the virtues
and practised the charities which had
characterized and distinguished his pa
rent, ami carved out for himself a
proud, honorable and enviable record,
as a high-toned, liberal-minded, public
spirited and generous-hearted citizen
of Sumter county. Of the deceased,
we can truly say:
“ None knew him but to love him,
None named him hut to praise.”
The death of such an individual as
Col. John B. Moore, is a heavy blow at
any time, to any community, but at the
present juncture of affairs, when cor
ruption is so universal and defiant, and
so many mischievous influences are at
work among us, sapping and uuder
mining the foundation of the political
and social fabric, and threatening to
overwhelm the glorious superstructure,
it becomes a public calamity. We
deeply sympathize with the bereaved
family and friends of the deceased in
their sad and painful affliction.
Charleston News and Courier: Re
publican Governors in the South have
so bad a character that it is difficult
for the public to believe that any one
of the number can be honest, capable
aud fearless in the discharge of his
duty. Especially is this the case iu
South Carolina, where the Governor is
a latter-day citizen, a native of New
England and an ex-officer of the Fed
eral army, and was an office-holder
during the four years when wholesale
stealing by public officers was the rule
and not the exception. Nevertheless,
Gov. Chamberlain has satisfied the
masses of the people in this State that
he is true as steel in the fight against
public dishonesty which he began upon
his installation, and continues to this
very day and hour.
Dr. C. R. Thompson, of Fort Motte,
died on the 30th ultimo, of pneumo
nia.
The Fairfield Fire Company of
Winnsboro’ will go to the Mecklenburg
Centennial.
The number of deaths in Columbia
for the week ending May 8 was as fol
lows : Whites, five; colored, —.
A guano agent in Marion says that
he has sold $30,000 worth of fertilizers
since the 15th of last December.
A Post Office has been established at
New Roads Station, in Colleton county.
Mr. John M. Bryan is Postmaster.
The dogs about Abbeville are half
hunters, half setters. They hunt until
they find a bone and then set down to
gnaw it.
Mr. H. T. Peako, the builder of the
Laurens Railroad, expects to complete
his work before the Ist of September
next.
The crops in the vicinity of Piedmont,
Greenville county, are reported in ex
cellent condition despite the tornado
and the late frosts.
A convention of the citizens of Pick
ens county is called for tho 15th inst.
to consider the question of defending
the validity of the railroad tax.
On Friday morning last, before 7
o’clock, 30 wagons loaded with grain
and cotton were counted on the public
square, at Spartanburg Court House.
Saturday Niglit.
The week is past, the Sabbath dawns come
on;
Best—rest in peace —thy toil is done;
And standing, as thou standest, on the
brink
Of anew scene of being, calmly thiuk
Of what is gone, is now, and soon shall be,
As one that trembles in eternity,
For such as this now closing week is past.
So much advancing tiiue will close my last,
Such as to-morrow shall the awful light
Of the eternal morning hail ray sight.
Spirit of good! on the week’s verge I stand,
Tracing the guiding influence of thy hand;
That hand which led me gently, calmly
still,
Up life’s stormy, tiresome, thorny hill.
Thou, thou, in every storm has sheltered
me
Beneath the wing of thy benignity.
A thousand graves my footsteps circum
vent ;
And I exist, thy mercy’s monument,
A thousand writhe upon the bed of pain,
I live, and pleasure flows through every
vein;
Want, o’er a thousand wretches, waves her
wand,
I, circled by ten thousand mercies, stand.
How I praise Thee, Father? how express
My debt of reverence aud thankfulness?
A debt that no intelligence can count,
While every moment swells the vast
amount.
For a week’s duties thou hast given me
strength,
And brought me to its peaceful close at
length,
Aud here my grateful bosom fain would
raise
A fresh memorial to thy glorious praise.
