THE APPEAL. J. P. SAWTELL, ELAM CHRISTIAN, EDITORS AND PROPRIETORS. CUTHBERT: FRIDAY, April 28, 1871. Col. Samuel Barnett. The visit of this gentleman, to address our people, by appoittment of the State Agricultural Society, has already been announced. We are authorized to state that tire day ‘has been changed from Thursday the 4th, to Tuesday the 2d day of May. The attention of our agricultural friends is especially invited, and a large attendance solicited. Gen. Wm. M. Browne is also ex pected to address the people. These two distinguished Georgians, whom our people have not been accustom, ed to hear, will make the occasion interesting and we trust profitable. Could not arrangements be made to induce the ladies to attend ? What say our lair friends to an im promptu fair of vegetables, fruits, flowers, etc.? BaINBKIDGE, CtHfHBEKT AND Cos lumbus Railroad.— lt is refresh ing to note the deep interest now being manifested upon the subject of this road. At a meeting of the Board of Directors, held in Bain bridge on Tuesday, the 18th, the following resolution was adopted: 'Whereas , The Board of Direc tors, have before them for conside ration several propositions relative to contracts and means for further progress and speedy completion of the Company’s line of road at an early day, which are of such nature as requires time to .perfect, and place properly before the Stockhold ers in general meeting. Therefore, be it j ßesolved, By the Board of Di rectors, that the next meeting of Stockholders be held in Cuthbert, on Monday, the 22d day of May next, in lieu of the 19th of April, as heretofore designated by the Secretary. Tn« Army.— A Washington let ter says, application has been made to army headquarters for addition al troops in Arizona, but Gen. Sher man replies that the reduction of the army by Congress has been so fully carried out that, added to the constant demands for troops in the Southern States, he is not only una ble to furnish more troops for the frontier, but is compelled to take troops from that section to send South. Some English capitalists announced their intention to em bark in mining enterprises in Ari zona, provided the Government would insure protection to life and property there. Nakkow-Guage Railroads.— Col. E. Hulbert, delivered a lecture at Columbus, on the night of the 18th, on the subject of narrow-guage railroads. The Columbus papers pronounce it a most interesting and instructive lecture upon railroads, their necessity, and showed clearly and forcibly the advantages of the three feet guage over any other.— Ho said one could, be built from Columbus to Chattanooga and from Columbus to Albany from SB,OOO to SIO,OOO per mile; then with a third rail on the Albany and Bruns wick road Columbus would have an unbroken narrow guage connection to Savannah and Brunswick and thus be the cheapest inland and manufacturing place iu the South. He believed the narrow guage would yet become the main line. — He was listened to with the most marked attention. Latest fbo?i Paris. —All station masters are notified that the block ade of Paris commences immediate ly. Provisions destined to Paris must be returned to shippers. The Minister, of Justice- of the Italian Government has announced the ear ly introduction of a bill separating church and State. fl©* The New York Sun, Radical, suggests that if Charles Sumner is nominated for President in 1872 by the Democratic party, on the plat form of equal rights, general am nesty, universal obedience to the Constitution and laws, low taxation and honest finances, he will be sup ported by half the old Republican party, and will be triumphantly elected against all opposition ; and the consolidated, liberalized, and democratized Democracy may hold the National Government for many long years yet to come. The Brunswick Appeal says that a number of Methodist divines, • together with some friends, proceed ed on Wednesday last to St. Simons Island? to visit and have photograph ed the venerable Live Oak, under the umbrageous branches of which John Wesley, tlie founder of Meth odism, preached his first sermon in America. It is probable that the picture will be engraved on steel, and offered for sale. Madison Bell, Comptroller General of Georgia, says the taxa ble property of our State to-day, is twenty million dollars more than in 1869. The Defeat of Amnesty. That Conservative Republican journal, the New York Commercial Advertiser, says of the shelved am nesty bill, that though it was only a compromise at the best, it would have been better than nothing, in asmuch as it would have convinced the people of the South that the sentiment of justice was not wholly dead, and that in time the entire burden under which they bend might have been removed. The Commer cial says the constituents of those members who contributed to the de feat of this measure will be likely to ask some such sharp questions as these: ‘•Why did you block the wheels of industry and stop the course of trade ? Why did you prevent the introduction of capital into the South? Why did you reject the offers of men who professed to be ready and willing to enforce and obey the laws ?' Why did you not give an opportunity to test the sin cerity of these men ? Why did you pass force bills and establish rule by the bayonet in time of peace ? Why was it necessary to subvert the republican form of government ? What is to be gained by the adop tion of measures alike oppressive and unconstitutional? And why should the President be invested with arbitrary powers ? Forty Sen ators should be asked these ques tions—and what answer can they give ? ” The Philadelphia Inquirer, at this day another of the more liberal class of Republican journals, says : “ Amnesty must come some time, and it will bo better now than next year or the year after. If we are to >yait until every Southernor is transformed into a quiet, law-abid ing citizen, we willhave-to wait for ever ; and it is a serious question whether the outrages which are re ported as occurring in some of the States will not sooner cease if they are left to the care of States them selves than if the General Govern ment attempts to take them in hand.” It would have been better for the prosperity and real unity of the country if such counsels had been heeded at Washington. It Failed. —The other night a serenade to Senator Morton, of In diana, was gotten up at Washington City, to give him an opportunity to bring General Grant out for renom ination. The affair came off at the National Hotel, from the steps of which Morton made a speech in re sponse to the serenade. Gen. Grant was present, and so was Forney, besides other wet and dry nurses of the Radical part}-. The renomi nation business was touched upon, but it did not take. • When Morton smeared Grant with his praise, not even a negro cheered for “ our dis tinguished Chief Magistrate.” For ney saw the thing would not do, and had the good sense not to al lude to it. The author of the San Domingo job, and the reviver of the income tax is not likely to have a very strong party in favor of bis renomination. Columbus and her Railroads. —The Albany News, in speaking of the action of Columbus in voting $200,000 to the North and South Road, and $64,000 to the Savannah and Memphis road, says : “ These enterprises are of vast moment to Columbus, and her citi zens are wise in expending liberally of their energy and resources iu their construction. They are none the less important to Albany and the system of roads that cluster around her. With both of these completed, the necessity for the link between this city and Columbus will at once be so apparent and pressing that it cannot be dispensed with.” The News thinks these roads, as well as the Montgomery and Eufau la, and the Brunswick and Vicks burg roads, will be feeders to the Brunswick and Albany railroad now progressing so rapidly to comple •tion. • In five years, that paper thinks the latter road will yield larger receipts from freights than anyroad of its length in the United States. The Washington Election.— The Washington Patriot shows that the Radical success in the re cent election there for a Congress ional delegate was marked by the most glaring Radical frauds. Every government clerk was formally or dered to register and vote, and many of them had voted in their own States. The estimate is that there were 2,000 of these voters. The importation of negro voters was largely, done. The official cen sus-shows 10,149 male negroes of age. The number registered was 10,774, or 625 more than live in the District. The Patriot estimates the t there were -2,378 illegal negro votes. Don’t Presume Upon Their In tellligence.—The Cincinnati En quirer, in advising against bogus ku-klux reports set on foot, as a matter of fun, by our newspapers, says i Southern editors must know that nothing is too.preposterous in that line that will not readily be believed by the Republicans North. If it should be seriously published that ku-klux had outraged and then swal lowed the moon, Republicans would wait with impatience for night to see if the moon had not actually disappeared. Their credulity is won derful. Editorial Brevities. —A Louisville dispatch reports a heavy frost on the night of the 24th. Eight hundred men are work ing on the Brunswick and Albany Railroad, east cf Flint river. The Legislative Council of the Territory of the District of Colum bia, is called by Governor Cook on May loth. The Georgia Medical Associa tion adopted a resolution at its late meeting to establish an for inebriates. The ladies of Columbus are arranging to erect a monument to the Confederate dead on Broad street in that city. The Selma and Meridian rail road was sold on last Tuesday, in Selma at public outcry, in accord ance with a decree of the United States District Court. Rev. W. H. Potter, of Augus ta, will deliver the next commence ment sermon of Le Vert College at Talbotton, Capt. W. A. Little, of Talbotton, the literary address. Two negroes, efrarged with de stroying a part and stealing a pai : t of the papers in the sheriff’s office at Dresden, Mississippi, were hung by masked men last Tuesday. The Rome Commercial says the whole of the stock’ of the Rome Street Railroad, save * thousand dollars, was taken in three hours. Things will be pushed right off. The United States Circuit Court, sitting at Baltimore has de cided that the United States cannot levy an Internal Revenue tax on the interest arising on railroad bonds. Coffee county has a curiosity known as the “Confederate Baby.” He was born in 1861, and weighs two hundred and ten pounds. She claims the championship on this pro duction. Scorching winds are again dam aging crops in Central California. Large bands of horses are being sold at thirteen dollars per head in Los Angelos county California, and driv en to Salt Lake City and Montana. A wonderful discovery has bean made of coal mines and oil weils thirty miles from Aspin.wall. They are reported to be inexhausti ble, arid the coal of a superior qual ity—equal even to the best import ed. The Government has given to the discoverer an immense tract of land. The Great Crevasse. The following dispatch has been received by the President of the Western Union Telegraph Compa ny : Louisville, April 24.—Hon. Wm. Orton, President: The crevasse which occurred in the levee of the Mississippi river at Bonne Carre Point, above New Orleans, some .days ago, has gradually increased in extent until it is now entirely be yond control. It was last evening 650 feet wide and 18 feet deep.— The danger of the New Orleans and Jackson Railroad and of our lives is very serious. [Signed] John Van Horn,. Gen. Sup. JVew Orleans, April 24.—As sistant State Engineer Hatch, wri ting yesterday from the Boone Carre crevasse, says it is now 600 to 650 Let wide, and a vast volume of wa ter rushes through with a roar like thunder, piling itself up in the mid dle iu the form of an arch, of which the centre is five or six feet higher than the sides. The torrent has cut its chanuel through the front Bal ture and far out into the fields to the depth of probably forty feet, while steadily, foot by foot, the great levee crumbles into its boiling waters. The closing of this crev asse is beyond the range of possi bilities—so the next best thing is to prevent, if possible, the widening of the breach. A continuous sea of water extends to Lake Ponchar train and for many miles above and below. The disaster is great and deplorable but is beyond reach of remedy, as every one who has seen it admits. New Orleans, April 25.—The agents of one of the Southern rail way lines have received a private dispatch from New Orleans an nouncing that communication with the North by rail has been severed temporarily by the Bonne Carre crevasse. The embankment of the Jackson road, for fourteen miles, together with the telegraph lines along the track, was totally swept away by the flood. The entif e country, as far as Lake Ponchartrain was sub merged at ll o’clock last night by a crevasse about 1000 feet wide.— About 5000 men, including the railroad laborers, are at work upon the embankments, and hopes are entertained that further injury from the breach might be prevented. The latest advices from Bonne Carre, crevasse report that a break of 700 feet had been made. Noth ing official has been received from that point this morning. The wa ter this morning was over the track of the Jackson road between the thirteen and fourte'en mile posts. — At Ivennars volunteers have turned out to assist in throwing up works to stop the watfer coming from the rear. Chief Engineer. Thompson has just received official information that the Wallace crevasse, St. James, has been effectually stopped. The Menoir and Yellere crevasses have both been closed, and men and materials have gone to McDon ough Crevasse, which is expected to be closed by night. General Thompson asserts there is no dan ger of the city being overflowed. The Ku-Klux Bill. The following is the Ku-Klux bill, as fiually agreed upon by both Houses of Congress, and passed on the 20th: AN ACT To enforce the provisions of the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States, and for other purposes. Section 1. Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representa tives of the United States of Amer ica, in Congress assembled.
