Newspaper Page TextTHE APPEAL. J. P. SAWTELL, ELAM CHRISTIAN, BPITOHS AND PROPRIETORS. CUTHBERT: FRIDAY, October 27,1871. Columbus is panting for a Rail road to Opilika. A Detroit dispatch of the 24th, saj% the high winds have rekindled the fire on the Military reservation. Rich gold mines have been dis covered in Winnepeg county, Min nesota. The editor of the SandersviUe Georgian is happy. He has receiv ed a potato weighing six pounds. We do not believe the report that the sanctum of the Savannah News requires no gas light the darkest nights, while red-head Harris is in Atlanta has no difficulty finding patriots who are willing to serve in the capacity of Mayor and Aider men. Hon. B. H. Hill is having a “ round ” with the editor of the Sa vannah News. It’s pretty “ tight papers.” Since all the Court records were destroyed in Chicago—and there were scores of divorce suits pend ing—wc wonder if a part of the re construction of the city will be a remarrying all ’round. The Atlanta Fair is pronounced by her papers a success. It is sla ted that fifteen or twenty thousand people visited the grounds on Wednesday. Brigham Young’s difficulties are increasing. On Tuesday Mrs. Cook sued him for money collected upon her husband’s death. Mrs. Cook was formerly a mormon, but is now an apostato. Casseyville, near Salt Lake, con tains seventy-three buck Mormons, who have, in the aggregate, three hundred and forty-seven wives and five bundled and twenty-two chil dren. They have a post master over at Lumpkin who fixes up his own pos tal laws ; and charges postage on newspapers printed in the country. Report the skin flint to headquar ters. The ladies of the First Methodist Church in Atlanta held a fair dur. ing last week, for the purpose of raising money for increasing their building fund. We are glad they wero successful in raising a goodly sum. The Millcdgcville Union has opened the Opeia House discussion again, and charges the city of At lanta with a failure to comply with her contract made with the State Convention before the removol of the Capitol. An address has been issued by representative workingmen of Lon don, demanding separation of Church and State in Lngland. llie address announces that meetings of work ingmen will be held throughout the country in support of this move ment. The Savannah Advertiser’s Wash ington special of Saturday says that the President makes no secret of his intention to enforce the Ku-Klux law, as in North and South Caroli na, all over the South ; also, that a delegation of carpet-baggers from Georgia are in Washington, telling tcrriblo stories of Ku-Klnx out rages, and urging Federal interven tion. The Cincinnati Enquirer says : There is no longer a doubt but that tho great fires of Chicago were lighted by incendiaries. It was a preconcerted plan upon the part of thieves, many of whom had enjoy ed experience south of the Ohio river, to plunder the town. The edw and kerosene story is not gen crally credited. Hundreds of in stances arc coming to light, show ing how men were caught in differ ent parts of the city igniting com bustibles and assisting in the work of destruction, eveu before it be came apparent that the fire was one of great magnitude. Possom-i cal.— The editor ot a little paper, published on the outskirts of one of the numerous frog pouds, some twenty miles above this city, on the Southwestern ItuiN Hoad, partaking of the spirit of the biggest frog in the pond, imagines himself a whale, and his camping ground equal to New York, insin uates that our city will soon be a good place to hunt coons and o’pos sums. We don’t know why it is necessary for that editor to begin to look away from home for his sup ply of ’possums, unless these ani mals are so constantly shaking up there, that they can’t swing to a limb long enough to get a good bate of persimmons, and consequently keep too poor to grease the pot. And if we have been able to see right of late, some of the people of that burg, are even thinking of go ing away from home after’Simmons. Eleven white girls married color- J cd men in Boston last year.— Ex. Poor negroes, we pity them. Tlic Great State Fair. We spent Wednesday last at Central City Park, one of the most beautified places in the United States. It was the third day of the Georgia State Fair. There was a large number present, and every body expressed the same opinion— that the thing was a triumphant suc cess. The moving masses of people, the 1 c lutiful, showy buildings, with their throngs of beautiful women, the flutter of scores of flags, the beautiful fountains, ever throwing up their sparkling streams, the pleasure boats on the river—all pre sented a scene calculated to win the admiration of every beholder. Huff’s name—the model Mayor, Huff—was in everybody’s mouth ; and upon the discovery of every new arrangement for luxury or nov elty, encomiums were heaped upo n Huff. The Executive Committee are proving themselves the very men for the place, and are giving satis faction to everybody' in their vari ous stations. The number of entries is larger than for any fair heretofore held in the State. It is well worth the trouble and expense of a visit to Ma con to spend a few hours strolling through the spacious, well-filled Premium and Floral Halls. Espe cially were we delighted with the picture gallery, and the splendid display of our Georgia ladies’ hand iwork—several specimens of both being explained so agreeably by their authors. (And here we would remark that tlie display of lovely women was equal to any we oversaw —as complete as possible without the presence of the female branch of this editorial corps.) The outside show is also exceed ingly interesting—although the dis play of stock, except horses, is not so extensive as it might be. Os couse all the side shows are in full blast, and a fellow can spend as much money as lie wishes to — provided he lias it. At five o’clock, we saw Weston, the world-renowned walkist, per form the remarkable feat of walking five miles in one hour —a half mile of the distance being walked back ward. At the close of trie day a female balloonist risked her life a few hun dred feet in the air. The balloon came down in the park enclosure, and lodged in a very tall tree, leav ing the adventuress swinging high and dry amongst the branches.— Strange to say, she readied terra firma intact. Thieves and pick-pockets are very plentiful i:i the city, and in fest the railroad depot, upon the at rival and departure of all trains. Two men had their pockets picked on the train upon which we em barked, as it was leaving the car shed. Their plan was to act as railroad officials, order people from one coach to another, block up tlie door ways, and then accomplish their work. We had on a Press badge, by which the thieves knew us to belong to the editorial fraternity, which rendered us perfectly secure against all danger from this quarter. The press, wo.found largely rep resented from nearly all parts of the State, and most of those wc saw were constantly in good spirits Toward night, we saw a bright light moving about the grounds, and thinking it was another one of Huff’s curiosities, we followed it ’round until we came upon red bead Harris, of the Savannah News. For fear lie should learn of onr mistake and burn with indignation, we overcame our desire to form his acquaintance, for the present. Next week we hope to give the award qf premiums, and such oth er information as we think of inter est to our readers. 25. A A. Railroad. Gov. Bullock, in a proclamation, publishes the fact that he has taken possession of the “ Brunswick & Al bany Railroad, with all of its prop erty, assets, franchises, and leases,” and placed the same iu charge of Col. John Screven, President of the Atlantic & Gulf Railroad Company- Ilis reason for this action, as he states them, may be found in his proclamation published in another column. Any attempt on our part, to di vine the result of this interruption, as regards the immediate future of the road, would be sheer specula tion ; yet, from somo reports we have heard, which seem to be toL crably well authenticated, we are led to hope, that the matter will soon be adjusted, and the remainder of the work pushed to completion. Commenting upon Bullock’s proc lamation, the Atlanta Era says : We learn that his Excellency, Gov. Bullock, accompanied by one of lqs Secretaries, and by Judge Brown, left the city last night for New York. The object of the Governor’s vis it is to make a rigid examination of the condition of the Brunswick and Albany Railroad Company’s finan cial affairs in New York, and we un derstand that ho expects to reach New York on Thursday morning— and will return on Saturday night from New York, reaching here on Thursday morning—the day before the meeting of the Legislature— prepared to lay all the facts before that body. The rumors that have been flying abroad, as to the attachments and levies made on the Brunswick and Albany Road seem to have confir mation in the action of the Gover nor in taking possession of the property for the protection of the State and the Road’s creditors, as set fort;, in the proclamation that we elsewhere publish this morning. Judge Clark for lulled Slates Senator. Editors Telegraph <£• Messenger: In common with many citizens of the State, I think it is time that Southwestern Georgia should be allowed to share in the honors dis tributed by the Legislature. We ought to have the ne’xt United States Senator. We can present a man every way qualified, and who is known as em inently trustworthy and deserving. I allude to the Hon. John T. Clarke, of Cuthbert, Ga., who filled the Judgeship of the Pataula Circuit with marked ability and integrity for five or six years, and was finally removed from office by special or der of Gen. Meade, because his man ly’ and upright nature refused to use the functions of an office con ferred by the people for tho en forcement of oppressive and uncon stitutional military orders. Judge Clarke has, since the war, taken a leading part in .advancing the Democratic cause, especially in Southwestern Georgia, and the De mocracy of the State recognized his ability and service by r placing his name, with that of Gcu. Gordon, on the electoral ticket for the State at large in 18G8, and by giving him the position which he now fills as a member of the Executive Com mittee of the party. Judge Clarko is comparatively a young man, but is old enough to be in the full exercise of all his gifts, and to have displayed on many oc casions that political knowledge and those po ft'ers of eloquence, which entitle him to rank among tho fust men of the State. We claim that he has few, if any, superiors, even among those whom age and oppor tunity have made more celebrated. The material from which the Sena tor must be chosen is limited, for I take it for granted that the Leg islature will not commit the folly of electing an ineligible man. We all regret the necessity of losing for a time the services of many of our statesmen of tried character and commanding reputation, but while wc will never cease to honor them for what they have done, we will be obliged in the future to look more for actual service to iho rising young men with whom the State is blessed. Give them positions where their light can shine, and ere long all will acknowledge their fitness to do those labors and bear those bur dens of public life from which un just legislation has disabled so many of tho older men. Judge Clarke is free from all legal disabil ity. Having never held office be fore the war, his name stands hap pily disconnected from those vio lent ante-war political issues which led to sectional strife and animosity, and he might obtain a more favora ble hearing for this State in the Senate on that account. Were ho in the United States Senate neither hope nor fear would drive him from the post and path of duty. He would prove a discreet andpjrudent counsellor , yet an able and gallant defender of truth and right, and all his public conduct would be regulated by exalted sen timents of personal honor and dis interested patriotism. We know that our suggestion is warmly ap proved by many, both in and out of the Legislature, in various parts of the State, as we would not write this until we had written to and consulted with several members of the Legislature in different parts of the State. Whether Judge Clarke would be disposed to turn aside from his professional career to enter upon such an office we arc not authorized to say. But Georgia and Georgia Democrats can do no better than to elect him. And we may say unhesitatingly, were Judge Clarke in the United States Senate four years, that both parties would acknowledge his mark ed ability as a statesman, and the Democratic party be proud of their Senator. Democrat. South west Ga., Oct. 17, 1871. Gone to the Better Land.— Francis S. Campbell, wife of Rev. Jesse 11. Campbell, one of the old est ministers of the Baptist Church in Georgia, and mother of Rev. A. B. Campbell, the beloved pastor of the Baptist Church in this city, died at Thomasville, Ga., on Monday 16th inst. Mrs. Campbell was about H t 0 years of age. For more than two years prior to her death, she had suffered most intensely from disease, but her suffering was borne with the utmost patience and sub mission. Nearly a year ago she was almost wholly paralized, and afterwards sank, gradually to her grave. Asa friend, wife, mother and Christian, she was as nearly fault less as human nature becomes. She had been a conscientious and con sisteut member of the Baptist Church for more than forty years. A Valuable Work.— We are indebted to Dr. M. F. Stephenson, the author, for a book of two hun dred and forty-five pages, entitled “Geology and Mmerology of Geor gia, with a particular description of her Rich Diamond District, Etc.” It gives the process of washing for diamonds, their price and mode of cutting and setting. It is a valua ble work, and we predict for it an extensive sale. Reported Failure of Mr. Kimball. Under this head the Atlanta Sun, of Monday, has the following: r lhe city is rife with rumors which have prevailed ever since Saturday, that H. I. Kimball has failed, it is said that his liabilities are about a million of dollars; that several days ago lie made an assign ment of the Brunswick and Albany Railroad, to the Georgia Contract ing Company,” or to Lyon & Mc- Lendon, contractors transfering t.ic whole road and equipments to secure what he was owing them ; that this assignment is made with an understanding that he be allowed to pay up and take back the road in thirty days; that the Chicago hie is the immediate cause of this failure—he having made arrange ments in Europe to have §75,000 per uiunjh placed to his credit in New York, for the sale in London °f bonds he owns, but the burn ing of that city' produced a panic in the money market, and a failure to comply with the contract; that his paper has gone to protest several times of late—having failed to meet accepted drafts ; that he is now’ iu New York for the purpose ot mak ing a final effort to sell the State and city bonds which he holds or controls, in order to realize and meet impressing demands—failing in which lie will make an assign ment of ali his effects ; that the KirnbaU House has long since pass ed out of his hands, etc., etc. We know not what foundat : on there is for the truth of these re ports, but they are in everbody’s mouth in the city, and a general cre dence given to the fact that Mr. K. has failed. llon. L. N. Teammkll.— One of the most prominent men now spo ken of as President of the Senate, is lion. L. N. Trammell, the bold and fearless champion of the peo ple’s rights. Col. Trammell is one of the live men of the State. He will carry North Georgia by storm and his great popularity in other sections of the State, give him a flattering chance for the position. The times demand the services of working men—men of nerve and men of brains—and the Georgia Senate will need for its next Presi dent just snch a man as Hon. L. N. Trammell. Died.
