THE CONSTITUTIONALIST
SATURDAY, June 5, 1875.
GEORGIA GENERAL NEWS.
Alfred Ainy, colored, was executed
at Atlanta yesterday for murder.
Gwinnett Herald: Ku Kluxism has
broken out anew in Chattooga county.
The Columbus Enqirer-Sun has been
purchased by W. L. Salisbury and C. A.
Clink. J
The subscribers to the Atlanta Cotton
r actory “are paying up at the rate of
v'lOO per day.”
The Agricultural Club of Warren
county had a very interesting meeting,
last Tuesday. Crop questions were
harmoniously discussed.
Gainesville Southron: As an evi
dence of the- value of advertising, we
inserted a notice that we wished to
purchase a good milk cow, and our cow
immediately had a calf.
Sanders villa Herald: Wheat cutting
has been for several days the all ab
sorbing question with our farmers who
report a large acreage sown but a
smaller yield per acre than last year.
Warrenton Clipper: There is a tur
key hen near Gunn’s Mill which lays
two eggs every day, when she is in the
notion of “nest hiding,” and there is
also a 14 year old boy who weighs 290
pounds, and don’t hah try. * * *
Brooks County Gem : We under
stand one of our young gents sent
North for a flea powder, enclosing 25
cents to pay for it. He got a box of
same by return mail with the following
directions for use: “Catch the flea,
tickle it in the ribs till it laughs, and
insert the powder while the mouth is
open.” * * Mr. James Lloyd, of Co
lumbus, is dead.
Griffin News : The Atlanta Herald
charges our business manager with
writing our Atlanta letters. We want
to inform that paper that our corres
pondent is the identical man who built
the land on which Atlanta is situated,
and he is well known to Mr. Jonathan
Norcross, and several other aborigines.
But if we do sometimes steal news, we
never steal the photograph of a “nice
little Sabbath School scholar,” and
palm him off on the public as a Carroll
county murderer. The latest news is
that the Herald had its picture cut of a
piece of white pine by one of the loaf
er’s brigade.
Rome Comwercial: We are called
upon to chronicle another unfortunate
difficulty, in which a citizen of this
county was killed. We were unable to
learn any of the circumstances of the
affray, either as to its origin or as to
the causes, whether they were justifia
ble or otherwise, of the killing. We
were simply told that on last Monday
evening a son of Mr. Adam Price and a
young man by the name of Lowery had
a difficulty in which young Price lost
his life—was killed by Lowery. The
scene of the tragedy was Taylor’s Mill,
a locality' about twelve miles east of
Rome, on the other side of the Etowah,
and about four or five miles from Bass’
Ferry.
Savannah News: The announcement
was made yesterday of the death of
Miss Mary Telfair, which occurred at
her residence in this city early in the
morning. Miss Telfair ‘ was the only
surviving child of ex-Gov. Telfair, a
distinguished character in the early
history' of Georgia, having occupied the
Gubernatorial chair in 1786 and 1790.
Mrs. Margaret Telfair Hodgson, sister
of Miss Telfair, died on the Ist of
March, 1874, aged 79 years. The sub
ject of this notice was 86 years of age,
and her father, Gov. Telfair, who died
in Savannah, September 17, 1807, was
73 years of age. The united ages of
the father and two daughters, at the
time of their decease, amounts to 238
years.
Greensboro Herald: During last
week seyeial tires occurred in the
county. The dwelling of Mr. Newton
Reese, a tenant of Mrs. Billingslea, was
Burned, and all of his furniture and
wearing apparel consumed by the de
vouring element. Mr. Reese and family
were at a neighbor’s at the time, and
returned in the afternoon only to real
ize their homeless and destitute con
dition. * * At Penfield, on Saturday
morning early, a house owned by a
colored man uanu and Jessee Caliaway,
was burned to the ground. We have
not been able to ascertain the loss sus
tained. but from what we hear, pre
sume it was inconsiderable. * * On
last Saturday evening, about twilight,
the quiet of our city was disturbed by'
the cry of fire. The alarm was occa
sioned by the bursting of a kerosene
iainp in the kitchen of the parsonage
of the Methodist Church. The flames
were extinguished before any serious
damages could resr.lt.
Savannah News: On Wednesday
evening, as Judge Henry B. Tompkins,
of the Superior Court, in company
with a friend, was returning from a
drive on the Shell road, he met with
quite a paiDful accident. When near
the Catholic Cemetery the horses be
came frightened by a vehicle which
was driven rapidly across the road, and
started to run. Judge Tompkins, who
was driving at the time, aware of the
fact that, one of the horses was rather
vvjld and a vicious kicker, sprang from
the buggy, when he fell violently upon
his right leg, spraining it badly, but
breaking no bones. It was late twi
light, and the gentleman who remained
in the buggy and managed to stop the
horses before they had gone far. was
unaware of the accident to the Judge
until he heard a groan. He found his
friend in pain, and assisting him into
the buggy, drove rapidly to the Judge’s
residence, where a physician was sent
for. The injury is not very serious,
but wifi prevent Judge T. from attend
ing to his usual duties for some time.
The Irwinton Southerner tells a very
curious story about Mr. Green Pittman,
of Wilkinson county. It seems that at
the battle of Hatcher’s Run, in 1864, Mr.
Pittman received a wound iu the face,
the ball entering the upper portion of
tire nose, on the left side. The wound
was probed and dressed by an army
surgeon and finally healed up, and
although the surgeon stated that the
ball was still in the head, Mr. Pitt
man had almost forgotten it, never
having experienced the least pain
or inconvenience lrotn it, In 1869,
one Sunday morning in February, five
years after receiving the wouud, as
Mr. Pittman was making his toilet
to attend church, it fell out into his
mouth. Mr. Pittman was combing his
hair at the time, standing perfectly
erect, and came near swallowing the
ball after it fell into his mouth. Strange
to say no hemorrhage followed its exit,
nor was there any pain felt. The ball
weighed one ouoce and two penny
weights. It is now in possession of
Mr. Pittman, who was a gallant mem
ber of the Third Georgia Bepiment du
ring the late war.
7’ome Commercial: Our readers
doubtless remember that, several weeks
ago, a revenue officer by the name of
Peevy, who w7>s hunting for illicit stills,
was shot by somt? unknown party near
Gadsden. At that tidje Peevy was ac
companied by a man named Leather
wood. Since then Peevy and Leather
wood’s headquarters have been at
Huntsville, Alabama. A short while
ago Leatherwood, accompanied by
other parties, we suppose Federal sol
diers, returned to the same neighbor-
in which Peevy was shot, and on
the same mission, looking after illicit
distilleries. On last Saturday Leather
wood left his party and rode out to
ward Sand Mountain, in which locality
there were reported to be three illicit
stills. Sand Mountain is about twenty
miles from Gadsden. While absent
from his party on this inspecting
tour, Leatherwood took dinner at
the house of the reputed owner of the
stiil, who at the time, however, was
away from home. Saturday passed,
then Saturday night, and Sunday morn
ing came, but Leatherwood did not re
turn. Some uneasiness began to be
felt at his absence. This uneasiness
was intensified and at the same time
suspicions of foul play were awakened,
when on Sunday morning Leather
wood’s horse, saddled and bridled, was
found at a grist mill, near by. Some
one having carried corn to the mill, left
a sack of it in the wagon, and the horse
was here found eating corn. In addition
to the saddle and bridle, there was upon
the horse a pair of saddlebags in which
were some books and clothing belonging
to Leatherwood. Drops of blood were
found upon the saddle and bridle and
the home’s withers were all bloody.
Uneasiness and suspicion now develop
ed lhto serious alarm. It was deter
mined to prosecute the search out to the
base of Sand Mountain, where there
was, or had been, a still. At this place,
in front of the still house, blood was
found about on the ground. The still
and everything belonging to had been
removed the night previous. The still
owner, as well as an assistant whom he
had with him, was questioned and exam
ined. Spots of blood were found upon
their shirts. They attributed this blood
to hurts received by them the night
before, while moving, from a falling
piece of timber. Splotches of blood
were also found inside of the still
house. Both of these parties, the
owner of the still and his assistant,
were arrested.
McDuffie Journal: Thomson at last
has a sensation in a case of genuine
society divorce suit. We regret that
the learned counsel for the prosecution
steadily refuses to give publicity to any
of the facts concerning this case.—
We await further developments. * *
Our little neighbor, Wrightsboro, was
visited on Sunday night last, by one of
the most violent rain and hail storms
that has struck that point since the
war. Hail fell, doing very great damage
to the cotton and materially injuring
the corn and wheat. The low grounds
were swept clear of fencing and every
thing that could be floated, whilst the
waters rose and then receded so rapidly
that quantities of fish were left high
and dry, an easy prey to Hamitic fish
ermen. * * * Business and plea
sure combined called us to Macon
and Southwest Georgia last week.
Macon, like all other Southern
cities, at this season of the year, is
quite dull—a majority of the goods
sold being to farmers on warehouse ac
ceptance. From what a dealer in agri
cultural implements said to us in Ma
con, we are led to believe that the
country will soon be in a* condition not
to want credit. It is an undoubted
truth that the demand for scythes this
year has been so far in excess "of the
stock on on hand (that having been re
gulated by the demaud or former
years), dealers have found it impossi
ble to fill orders, even after using the
telegraphic medium for ordering.—
Crops of all kinds look well, and
south of Macon appear to be about
three weeks in advance of those iu this
section. In the vegetable line we may
mention a profusion of beans, squashes,
etc., while on some tables may be seen
Florida roasting eai’s. * * A fatal
recounter took place in McDuffie county
and about twelve miles distant from
Thomson yesterday. We give the facts
as heard from one of the parties, Mr.
Wm. Paschal. Mr. Paschal had in his
employ, or as a tenant, Mr. Waters,
who, from some cause, became vexed]
with Mr. P. about some of the stock on.
the farm. A quarrel and some threats'
on the part of Waters was the only re
sult, and it was thought that the
trouble was ended, but on yesterday
Waters was seen approaching Pasctial’s
house in a threatening and turbulent
manner. Paschal stepped into another
room and got his gun and warned
Waters not to come iu. He, however,
continued to advance, and, when within
a few feet of the door, was shot dead
by Paschal. There was no witness, and
Mr. P. at once came into Thomson to
surrender himself to Sheriff Langford.
Macon Telegraph: A meeting of
about thirty-five prominent citizens
was held at the City. Hall night before
last to consider the propriety of taking
some action relative to the purchase of
the Macon and Brunswick Railroad.
Judge E. C. Granniss was in the chair,
aud Mr. John P. Fort was Secretary.
• A resolution was adopted to send a
committee to Atlanta to confer with
the Governor relative to the purchase
or lease of the road. The committee
consisted of Mayor Huff, Col. W.'J.
Lawton, Hon. A. O. Bacon, Col. W. A.
Lofton, Messrs. W. R. Rogers and I. C.
Plant. The Governor was telegraphed
yesterday, and replied that ho would
be glad to see the committee to-day.
The committee left last night fully
prepared to make a definite proposition
for tho purchase or lease of the road.

LETTER PROM EDOEPIELD.
[Special Correspondence Constitutionalist.]
Edgefield Cos., S. C., June 2,1875.
I write you a short letter concerning
the crops of a portion of Edgefield
county, and something about the hail
storm which passed below this place on
the evening of the 26th of May. The
weather in this part of country is con
siderably dry, and has been so for some
time. We have not had any rain to do
much since the first of May. The ground
is very hard and dry, so much so that
crops grow very slowly, and are very
small for the time of year, though they
look considerably well according to the
rain they have had. Some farmers are
low spirited, and say we are going to
have a bad crop year, tflit I am not at
all uneasy yet. I prefer dry weather
now than in July. On the evening
of the 26th of May there was a pretty
severe hail storm passed my residence,
which did no little injury to oats and
wheat on a few farms. The hail fell so
thick as to cover the ground and
trailed out double the quantity of oats
as was necessary to have sowed
the laud. Mr. T. 1). Padgett thinks ho
has lost as many oats as two hundred
bushels. Oat crops are generally good
where they were sown forward. Oats
which were sown in September are 78,y
good, and those sown in the Si rii g
took the rust and are not near so g/cod
as those sown in September. The
wheat crops are not so good as I once
thought they would be, all the wheat I
have seen has the blade rust on the
stalk. I think the farmers will make
enough wheat to last them until
another crop is made. Some of our
farmers have to raise a small clover
crop, and I see they have been success
ful. Mr. S. W. Nicholson had the finest
clover patch I ever saw in this county.
He had as many as four or five acres
in clover, and it was very flue; in some
spots it was waist high to a man of or
dinary height. Any man who had never
raised any clover would be surprised
at the quantity of hay one acre of good
land would yield. All the farmers in our
county should have a good clover and
barley patch.
If a man had one acre of good land
sowed in barley and one acre in clover
it would save more com and fodder
than anyone who had not tried it would
imagine, because his barley would do
to feed in the latter part of April and
in a short time his clover would be
ready to feed and he could do with
out much coru from April until
July and then his horses look better
than if fed on corn all the time, and
besides, it is made with less expense.
Ask any man who don’t believe me
to give it a fair trial and he will
say I am correct. I would not have you
think I am opposed to raising corn, for
lam far from it. Times are harder
than I have ever before known—pro
visions scarce and hard to get. Credit
is hard to get, and why is this ? Oh !
it is because he has been concentrating
and fortifying his forces on the lines of
railroads near here, as well as other
sections of country. He has, in many
battles, met with sore defeat and great
disaster. Why was he so defeated ?
Because he failed to raise his supplies
at home. Now credit is almost extinct.
Who are the people looking on to save
the country? Who can be looked on,
and who is able ? No one but Cash !

LETTER FROM BARNWELL.
Allendale Notes—Summer Festivities —
The Port Royal Excursion.
[Special Correspondence Constitutionalist ]
Allendale, S. C., June 2, 1875.
Let a voice from the oaky hills of
old Barnwell reverberate through the
comely columns of “ye Constitution
alist, with amendments .”
Let the pen of au old reader of your
time-honored sheet have a say in be
half of our midst, down here on the
Port Royal, at the new-boru burg of
Allendale.
W T hat must I write about? Now that
the Court House curse has been uttered
and disposed of, too, until the-next
session of the Legislature, what re
mains of interest to a full-blood Barn
wellian, that he may vent somewhat of
that pent-up gas that sometimes occa
sions the catastrophe of a collapse if
not explosion.
Mr. Editor, we are a proud but im
pecunious people. We have nothing
to while away our existence in the in
terim of toil, save au occasional pic-uic
or fish-fry, which be it remembered has
not been legislated on as yet.
I attended certainly one of tho most
sumptuous affairs of the soit last Sa
turday, that it .has ever fallen to my
fortune so to do. It was at Mathew’s
Bluff, on our old Savannah river, which
becomes ours when it reaches this far;
aud let me here say that for plenty,
variety, and elegance* nothing can sur
pass it, in auy place or period. It
was gotten up by the citizens ad
jacent to the bluff, headed by the
Messrs. Gray, Cohen, Kirkland & Cos.,
It was a treat to all. Flirting and danc
ing was the order of the day, and all
was joy and delight, Among the guests
I noticed, as is very usual at these
border picnics, a handsome sprinkling
of fair Georgians, some from the Forest
City and others from the excellent
county of Effingham in your State.
Miss S , Missß and Miss D
will not be forgotten by our bachelor
bosoms in a hurry. But no discrimi
nation, Augusta wins the belt on the
beauty question, and Allendale section
can also show a few pretty faces that
even you Augustans would tip your
chapeaux to, in spite of the many lovely
ones you so truly boast.
When our good people thirst for
something of a more urban cast they
jump on the Port Royal and soon turn
up at the travelers’ home, the ever
faithful Central Hotel, in your pretty
city, and sip the sweets of a city home.
But there is another treat in view of
us—the excursion to Port Royal, on
the Bth inst. Let us all be ready.
Capt. Cuningham will be in command,
and that is sufficient. Let us give
him a liberal support. All who know
him love him, and the name of B. D.
Cuningham is proverbial in this State
for possessing all the qualities that
make a man noble in society.
Yours, most truly, X.
[From the Barnwell Sentinel.]
Death of Dr. S. L. Owens.— We re
gret to learn, as will also the friends
and acquaintances of Dr. Stephen L.
Owens, a former resident of Barnwell
county, that he departed this life at his
home in Bienville Parish, La., on the
11th inst. Dr. Owens left this county
for Louisiana some six or seven years
ago, and was, we believe, at. the time of
his death, engaged in planting and the
practice of his profession, which he
carried on quite successfully. This
death has created a void in his commu
nity which but few could have filled.
Peace to his ashes.
A News and Courier correspondent
from Greenville says : Anew cotton
factory is to be built here at once ;
capital, $250,000 ; Sampson, Hall & Cos.,
of Boston, the principal parties. The
capital will be chiefly from Boston. S.,
H- & Cos. have now a successful cotton
factory at this place, which yields them
large profits. They spin principally
yarn for carpets.
The project of building a Catholic
ctiurch at Greenville meets with great
favor. A number of gentlemen have
subscribed from SSO to S2OO each, and
it is believed tbat there will be no diffi
culty in securing the necessary amount.
