FRIDAY, July 14, 1871.
11. I Kimisai.i,. —A reliable gen
tleman anil contractor from Enfau
la, now present in our city, prepar
ing to bid on the work of the North
and South RjVftri, reports that 11. I.
Kimball has sold out the Brunswick
and Albany Bailmad, of which he
•was elected President of a short
time back, with such sounding tram
ftets. The simple Rnilrond interest
was the purchaser. Comment -is
unnecessary.— Columbus Enqui
rer.
The Enquirer certainly didn’t “en
qroirc ” much before making this
statement; or else it has enquired
sufficiently to get ahead of the man
agers of the enterprise in the knowl
edge of the company’s proceedings,
With the lights before us, we know
of no move less likely to he made
on the great .Railroad checker-board.
Its face bears fraud upon it. The
reliable gentleman and contractor
has no means of obtaining such in
formation ; and certainly could hot
have procured it before it was known
at Atlanta, and at this place—at
which points there is not the slight
est suspicion of such a thing. He
might have an axe to grind in giv
ing circulation to such a report—if
we mistake not, the creation of Ins
own imagination, emitted by the
impulse of voluble gas-power. The
rum«r is absurd.
Immigkation. —We call attention
to Judge DuPont’s letter on ibis
subject, to be found in another col
umn. The writer is a gentleman of
the highest character, and was for a
long time chief Justice of the
Supreme Court of Florida, previous
to the. present government. lie
speaks whereof he knows.
Ku-Kluk.—A Washington dis
patch on the 6th states that the Ad
ministration is about to enter upon
a more vigorous enforcement of the
Kn-Klux law, not through the em
ployment of the military, but by
the appointment of special assistant
District Attorneys, charged with
the prompt prosecution of alleged
offenders in the United States courts.
It is not pretended that there have
been any new developments regard-'
ing the condition of allairs in the
South that necessitates this sudden
decision of the Department of Jus
tice. On the contrary, the evidence
before the Ku Ivlux Committee
shows that the affairs are now* so
peaceable in the South that all of
tlio evidence taken relates mostly to
disturbances before the present year.
lii response to inquires on the
subject of the liabilities of apothe
ca?ies who sell wines aud liquors as
medicines, Commissioner of Inter
nal Revenue reasserts the former
decision of the bureau, declaring
apothecaries liable who sell liquors
except when they are composed with
other medicines and thereby lose
their identity as wines or spirituous
liquors.
The Atlanta Constitution sajs
that Foster Blogctt, last week,
gave bond in the sum of $>5,000 to
answer the charge of larceny after
trust. A. L. Harris was his bonds
man. The papers were not given
to the sheriff until last Saturday
night, so he informs us. V. A. Gas
kill is absent from the city, but be
fore he left, eudeavorod to get the
matter fixed up, but the Sheriff did
not have the papers at the time.
—Canada is again afflicted with
drouth. On the 3d inst. great fires
were reported to be raging in the
woods around Port Elgin and Otta
wa. The flames had been sweeping
an area of thirty miles around Port
Elgin for four days. A great many
houses and a large amount of crops
had been destroyed.
Advocates of a liberal educa
tion for women will be glad to learn
that a young lady student in the State
University of Missouri has gained
the first prize for Greek scholarship.
Miss J. F. Ripley has the honor of
being the first woman who has over
surpassed the young men iu such a
contest.
The assignment of cadets of
the class which graduated in June
was made on the 6th. The cadet
who graduated at the head of his
class was assigned to the 4th caval

numbered thirty-seven in the class.
Other cadets who did not graduate
so far down the line did not fare
quite so well. Two of the class
were assigned to the two colored
regiments, where all white officers

graduate and are assigned as officers
to regiments of their own color.

.1 adge I». B. Carpenter,of Charles
ton, was' five hours before the Ku-
Klux Committee on Saturday Tie
said therediad hceuKu-Klax outra
nges in Various parts of his Strfte,
not, however, originating from hos
tility to the Federal Government,
but trie natural outbreak of men
who had no redress through the
forms and administration of law.
The government of the State was
defective in capacity in all its de
pa rtmeftts, and venal. It had in
creased the debt to eleven millions
without constructing a mile of rail
road, a foot of canal, or a school
house. When a candidate for Gov
ernor, last year, lie visited every
county in the State but one, and nev*
er heard a man utter a word against
the Federal Government. The op
position was to the corruptand mal
administration of the State govern
ment. The members of the Loyal
League committed outrages, such as
murders, burning gin bouses, before
there were Ku-Klux organizations.
The people submitted quietly for
two years, until they found they
had no redress through elections or
forms of law. The Ivu Ivin x were
composed of men of high respecta
bility, and were organized for re
dress and protection. Judge Car
penter, however, did not endorse
the organization. He testified that
a collection of four millions was lev
ied this year, which will bankrupt
op(vthird of the State. The gene
ral condition of affairs in the State
was bad.
THE SWEDR
Letter From Judge DuPont of Flor
ida.
We find the following interesting
letter in the Thomasvilla Enterprise
from Judge DuPont, of Quiney,
Florida addressed to Mr. D. S. Bran
don, of Thomas County:
Quincy, Fla., June 23, 1871.
Deer Sir; —Yours under date of
the 20th inst. is just at hand, and
it always affords me much pleasure
to be able tq communicate any in
formation connected with the sub
ject of foreign immigration.
Under the auspices of our Coun
ty Association, there, have been
brought into this county two install
ments of Swedish immigrants, com
posed of mechanics, farm-laborers,
domestic servants. The firstarrived
last October and the last about a
month or six weeks, since- All of
these have readily found employ
ment, and have (with one exception)
given universal satisfaction. They
are moral and industrious in their
habits and of tlie strictest integrity.
They are intelligent- apt iu acquir
ing k knowledge of our mode of
culture, and upon the whole, the
best laborers and servants that I
have ever been acquainted with.
We find no difficulty in communi
cating with them from their first
arrival, by signs and otherwise, and
in the space of a few weeks they ac
quire a sufficient knowledge of the
language to begin 1o frame senten
ces. Many of them have made ex
traordinary- progress in mastering
our language.
I have had one with me since last
October. From the first day he
jiickxl as much cotton as ai,y hand
in tlie field—made the best lireiuau
that 1 ever had around it sugar fur
nace—boat all the hands at splitting
rails, and is. as good a ploughman as
there is on the farm. The best of
all is, he never drinks, lies nor steals,
and 1.0 is but a type of the balance
of them
It costs about seventy five dollars
to get them here, but this will de
pend somewhat upon the compensa
tion allowed to your emigration
agents. For the. consideration of
having their transportation and ex
penses paid, thoy agree to serve in
the capacity that they may be em
ployed, for the period of one year
from the date of their deliv
ery to you. Where they pay the
expenses of their passage we allow
them as wages $l2O per annum for
men, and SOO per annum to be ein
ployed as cooks, washers, ironers
and house servants, and they are
found to give entire sstisfaction in
all these several avocations.
Our county is now in co-operation
witli the counties of Leon and Jef
ferson. and wo have organized a
District Association, which embra
ces the entire district of Middle
Florida. I am President of both
the County and District Association,
and have been recently apjiointed
by tlie latter “ General Superin
tendent ” aud charged with con
ducting tlie financial and trrnspor
tation arrangements of tho same.
Ws have two agents in our employ
ment, one foreign and the other do
mestic, and I am just now arranging
to dispatch our foreign agent on
another trip to Sweden to execute
the orders that have been handed
in. He is expected to take his de
parture immediately after the first
of July. My heart is in this work,
believing, as I do, that it gives the
only promise of a speedy emancipa
tion from our present inliictions ;
and I hope to be able soon to devise
a plan which will give enlarged pro
portions to the grand enterprise, so
that my field of operations may ig
nore even State lines, and be lim
ited only by the demand for labor
ers and domestic servants, and the
supply to be furnished by immigra
tion. All my accounts from the
several nationalities of Europe are
favorable tc the consummation of
this enterprise, aiicl it only rcinams
for us to determine whether we
will consent to invest our means in
the procuiing of reliable and„ effi
cient labor. * * * *
I am very respectfully yours etc.,
C. 11. DuPont.
P. S—My Swede has never yet
complained of the heat, though he is
my principal ploughman, and I have
never iavored him in the slightest
degree. Indeed he tol l one of my
sons, who was engaged in ploughing
with him a few days ago, that the
sun was no hotter in Florida than
it,vi;as in Sweden. I have always
insisted that the apprehension about
the effect of a change of climate
was only a medical humbug. I
have found no difficulty about his
diet —he feasts on hominy, corn
bread arid butter-milk—eats* very
little fruit and no vegetables.
The Tennessee Railroad Disaster.
Painful Particulars.
Nashville, July 4.—The people
of this city wtire horrified this
morning by being awakened at an
early hour by the cry of newsboys
—“fifteeu killed, twenty wounded !
terrible railroad smash up on 'North
western Railroad 1”
The bodies of the killed have
just arrived. The mere . announce
ment in the papers caused our peo
ple to hurry to an undertaker’s es
tablishment, where the bodies of
the killed had been taken and laid
out. Here in a room fronting on
the street we could see through the
glass door the bloody, mangeld and
broken bodies as they lay in their
coffins..
The train which met with this
horrible accident left here at half
past eight o’clock last evening on
the Northwestern Railroad. It was
composed of engine, baggage car,
two passenger ears and one sleep
ing coach. There were fourteen
passengers in tire front passenger
car and about thirty in the ladies’
car and three in the sleeping car.—
Most of those in-the ladies’ car were
on their way to Kingston Springs
to enjoy the fourth of July. The
train as usual reduced its speed on
approaching the bridge over the
Harpeth River, sixteen miles from
this city. The engine aud baggage
car passed over the pier in the mid
dle of the river in perfect safety.
The front passenger car had reach
ed the pier when the bridge gave
way under it, was precipitated
twenty feet into the river, falling
on its side into eight feet of water.
The ladies’ear fell end up on to this,
all the passengers falling to the
front, and the seats breaking from
their fastenings falling on the pas
sengers, one corner of this car be
ing under the water.
In the front car was Mr. John
Campbell, of Nashville, whose leg
and head were hurt, but who, with
another gentleman, were the only
persons that w’ereleft free to move.
They swam through t-he car and
extricated eight or ten others and
brought them out, with but slight
bruises. The others under the
seats W’ere either killed or drowned,
and their bodies w r ere not found at
daylight.
In the ladies car thirteen * out of
the thirty were killed instantly, and
their dead bodies with the broken
seats were piled up with and on the
other passengers. It this condition
they were left, wounded and dying
in the darkness of the night.
The sleeping car run lialf way
over the break and lodged against
the upper end of the ladles car.—
The three persons in it were bruis
ed but soon extricated themselves
and climbed dow:n and commenced
taking down the broken seats piled
up on the dead and dying, and after
about an hour sucoeded in relieving
many. m
The engine and baggage car hur
ried on to king&tou Springs Station,
where they* awoke the-operator and
telegraphed to Col. Thomas, Super
intendent of the Road. The news
reached Col. Thomas, at half past,
twelve, lie at once started with
the wrecking train and a number
of distinguished physicians to tlie
scene of death,\ariving at near two
o’clock. They went to removing
dead and dying. All this time the
wounded wore fastened under the
dead bodies and debris, unable to
move hand or foot. Some praying
for mercy, others bemoaning loss
of dear ones, and others rejoicing
that it was no worse with them
than it was.
It was extremely difficult for the
parties to reach the wounded with
out standing on or holding them
selves up by some of the wounded
or dead. One of the wounded—
Mr. Williams, a stout man, of Nash
ville, proved himself a hero, by
telling one of the Doctors to stand
on his hip, the leg of which was
mangled and crushed, telling him
never to mind him, but to relieve
the others who were in a worse
condition than himself !
J. M. Thompson, of Amherst
Court House, Virginia, was cut
about bead and hip, aod having his
bowels mashed, (since dead) was
under the impression that he had
been iu a great battle and a cannon
ball had struck him below the knee.
YY hen they brought a stretcher to
take him out, he said, “Oh, I know
what this is; I have been wounded
in battle before, and taken off the
field on a strecher ” He was very
cheerful, but died soon after reach
ing this city.
Mr. YVright, of White Bluff, was
taken out alive, and Said, after be
ing laid on the bank of the river,
that he felt as well as could be ex
pected, and only wanted a drink of
water, which, immediately after tak
ing, was thrown up from his stom
ach, together' with large quantities
of blood, and in a few minutes af
terwards lie was dead.
It is leared that others in the for
ward car were drowned or killed.
Tho scene at the depot on tlie ar
rival of train with the dead and
wounded was heart-rending in the
extreme. Mothers, fathers, broth
ers, sisters, and friends of the vic
tims were there to learn she fate of
some dear one, and many were hor
rified to see, without being fore
warned, the mangled dead body of
that dear one.
The undertaker, Groones, was at
the depot with a wagon load of cos
fins, in which the bodies were placed
and taken to his establishment, to
be dressed, which has -just now,
eleven o’clock, been completed. *
The wounded were tenderly con
veyed to and cared for at their
homes and the hotels.
The Northwestern Railroad has,
It is well know n, for years, been
unsafu4or travel ; but since its lease
by tire Nashville and Chattanooga
Railroad Company, it has been un
dergoing repairs, and has been, for
some time, considered as safe as
any road in the’country.
The train, when it met with the
accident, was stopped to put off
Mrs. Burns and child at the other
end of the bridge. The brakeman
was applying breaks aud was
thrown into the river. A newsbov
standing on.the platform, was also
thrown.into the river. His body
has not ret been found.'
Murder and Lynch Law.
Chicago has recently been the
scene of one of the most cruel mur
ders committed lately. A man
named Mera beat his own child to
death while the mother was in bed
sick. lie was taken from the jail
and hung by a mob ; and the follow
ing is the evidence of the mother
and wife at tlie coroner’s inquest:
My husbond, Martin Mera, whip
pedmy son, Martin, aged ten years,
two weeks ago last Tuesday night.
My babe was born that day, and I
did not see the whipping; it was
done in another room: I heard the
blows and heard the child beg for
mercy; the child went to bed about
ten o’clock; the next morning the
child came to my bed-room, follow
ed by his father, who w r as whip
ping him very hard with a black
snake horsewhip. The child dodged
around the room to avoid the blows,
and begged for mercy; the child
■Was completely naked, his father
having compelled him to strip him
self. Ilis face was swollen from
the whipping he had received the
niglVt before. His father whipped
him very hard for ten or fifteen
minutes; at last lie stopped and
told the child to put on his shirt;
lie made an effort to do so and fail
ed ; his father repeated the order,
when the boy said, “I can’t sec—l
can’t see.” “You can’t see it ?” re
sponded his father. “No, father,
I can’t see you—l can’t see you. I
feel dying.” The father then rub
bed the boy with spirits, and forced
some down his throat. The child
raised his bauds, moved his lips and
expired. Mera then took the body
and put it under the bed where the
sick mother was lying, and it re
mained there until evening, when
he buried it.
The testimony of the boy’s sis
ter'is still more horrible.
Bowen’s Pardon.
Here is Grant’s proclamation par
doning the loyal bigamist, carpet
bag Congressman, C. C. Bowen
Ulysses S. Grant, President of
the United States—To all whom it

A Narrow Escape —On last
Saturday afternoon, at about 4
o’clock, a sudden, unexpected clap
of thunder, and, not four ticks of a
watch thereafter, a sharp, terrible
fiery streak of lightning startled the
family of Rev. Mr. Davis of this
city. The lightning struck a pecan
tree standing about twenty feet from
the side 6f the house, and right op
posite a window where Mrs. Davis
was sitting sewing, at which the old
est child was standing. A young
dog was chained near the tree. He
was thrown from Ms feet by the
shock, and he rolled over and over
in strange disorder. The younger
child was under the house getting
the dog house to put the dog in.—
He was shocked speechless, for a
minute or two, and when he recov
ered, he said, “something struck
me, and burnt my foot.” Red
streaks, as if done by fire, were seen
on the inner side of his right foot,
just under the ankle joint. The
older child at the window was so
shocked that he could not move. —
Mrs. Davis says she saw the sparks
of fire on the needle in her hand,
and felt an immense pressure upon
the brain. At the time of the
stroke, there was sunshine all around
the house—a cloud seeming to rest
sullenly some distance to the South
east.—Eufaula JYews.
—At a late meeting several
friends of Gen. Hancock agreed to
contribute one thousand dollars
each, in case of his nomination, and
