In our last issue we noticed the presence, in our midst of our friend Mr. E. H. Grou by of the Early County News —we maka some extracts from an article which ap= peared in his issue of the 12th in9t. He speaks of Bainbridge and its citizens in the following complimentary style : We had the pleasure of a couple of days stay in the “Oak City” of South Western Georgia last week. Bainbridge, the count* fy site pf Decatur county, situated at the head of low water navigation on the Flint, and the terminus of the Atlantic & Gulf Railroad, is a flourishing young City of some 3,500 inhabitants, 40 or 50 business houses, and dwellings in proportion, arid is still growing very rapidly, and daily’ in creasing its already very large commercial business. Quite a number of roomy and handsome business houses have recently been creeled, and several others are going I op, which will soon be completed. By do* | ing a little repairing to their public build— j tugs, streets, sidewalks, and removing the I rubbish from the public square, all of which I seemed t*> ns to be very much needed, the ] Bninbridgeiles would have every appears mice of a real live, wide-awake, go-ahead City. The rubbish you speak of Bro. Groubv is material which is being used in complex ting the interior of some of the new build* iijgs, and will bo removed as soon as the work is finished. * Its people are energetic, kind, hospitable and generous—the ladies are pretty, re* fined, intelligent and the best lot of “rebels” we ever had the pleasure of meeting up with. Its churches and schools are in a flourishing condition jits cemetery is neat ly kept, and the very beautiful monuments erected, together with the flowers and shrubbery planted over and around the graves of its dwad, shows that their memo ry still lingers with the living. ******* A general go-aheadativeness aud cordis ality seems to possess alike stranger and friend, for in no place have we ever met a more genefrous, courteous and spirited public. With pleasure we shall long re« member our snort two days in Bainbridge. In conclusion, we hope ere long to take our “knitting” and renew our visit for a week—until then, with our good % ill for our presence, friends of Bainbridge, we bid you adieu. We are very glad to know that you formed such a favorable opinion of our lit - city Bro. Grouby, and that you enjoyed yourself “hugely we also thank you for the praise you have Been fit to bestow upon our citizens, and hope you will comply with your promise arid soon pay us another visit, and rest assured you will meet with a hearty welcome. INDUCEMENTS TO SUBSCRI BERS. In order to give subscribers a sufficient amount of reading matter pertaining to Agricultural affairs and the Management of stock, we have made with N. P. Boyer & Cos., publishers of the American Stock Journal, which is one of the best conduct ed journals in the United States, to furnish the Sun and Journal to all new subscribers who pay in advance, at Hhe low price of $2.15 per year. The Journal itself is worth to any farmer twice the amount he pays for both. The Chattahoochee Mirror comes to us this week with anew head and new‘name ; it, is now called The Ft. Gaines Mirror. The Directors of the South Georgia and Florida Railroad, are grumbling because the stockholders dcL’t pgy up. FORNEY ON THE WAY TO MA CON FAIR. The telegrams announce the important intelligence that John. W. Forney of the, “Two papers, both daily,” has been safely landed in Atlanta. With the exception of beast Butler, he is the most notorious scoundrel and slanderer of our people un hung. We hope however that while he is here he will be treated kindly, and cour teously Let us show him, that we have magnanimity enough to treat our avowed enemies with courtesy. The Good Book admonishes us, that the sure way to heap coals ol lire upon an enemies head, is to return “good for evil.” We must confess in his case, it will be pretty much like the dntohman getting to heaven. “A d—nd tight squeze,” to do so. The Jefferson (Texas) PRisoNERR—The Findings and Sentences. —The findings and sentences in the cases of the Jefferson prig* oners have at length been made public, and we are enabled to present the same to our readers in this issue. It will he remcm* bored that twenty-three persons in all— twenty-one citizens and two negroes—were ! tried before the military commission, and in these cases the decisions respectively are as follows : Richard P. Crump, William 11. Maglll, Mark H. Joplin, Silas H. Nance, John C. Murphy, Jr., Ilenry A. Steally, Walter L. Marshall, John M. Vines, Wil liam A. Hightower, David E. Carpenter, Richard Batte, Win. D. Hannegau, Henry M. Woodsmall, Wes. L. Crawford, Horatio N. Geer, citizens, and Nathaniel McCoy, and Richard Davis, negroes, are found “not guilty” on all the charges and specifica tions, and ordered by Gen. Reynolds to be discharged ; though in the cases of Messrs. Crump, Joplin, Hightower and Geer, the commandant says he is “unable to approve of the findings which acquit these persons of all complicity in the offences with which they are charged.” Ludwig P. AI lord, George Gray and Os car Gray, the commission find guilty of murder in the first degree, and sentence the said parties “to be confined for the pe riod of their natural lives, at such place as the proper authorities may direct.” John A. Kiclnrdson. Matthew D. Taylor and Charles A. Pitcher are found “guilty of conspiracy feloniously and of malice afore thought to kill and murder citizens,” and are sentenced “to be confined for the period of four years, at such place as the proper authority may -direct.” All these findings and sentences Gen. Reynolds finds himself quite able to approve, and designates the penitentiary at Huntsville, Texas, as the place of confinement, “to wliich the priso ners will be sent under a suitable guard.” As this order bears date on the 21 of this month, the victims of martial law Pave long ere this been incarcerated within tire walls of the penitentiary. They are in for life, reads the sentence, but unless they are of very weekly constitutions, it is likely that ihey will see, long before their terms of sentence expires, a civil government in Texas and in the country at targe, before which military commissions and their makers aliku will be compelled to pale heir ineffectual fires. — G <i! restart News. Negro Accidentally Shot.— Mr. A. J. Mc- Alister, of Atlauta, was arrested and brought before Justice Schofiel 1 yesterday, on a charge of assault with intent to mur der one Isaac Brown, a colored mam near the Fait Grouuds on Sunday last. He had shot Isaac in the hip, inflicting a sev • but not necessarily fatal wound ;.e waived examination and gave bond forms appearance at the next term of the fcmnei tot Court. Sheriff Martin made the affidavit on which the warrant was issued for Mc- Alister’s arrest, and Judge 0. A. Lochraue was retained as counsel for the deience. We have been informed that the shooting was accident, and tnat no one appears to regret the accident move than Mr. Ale Alls— ter, and he manifests his regret by paying Isaac’s doefor'bills and furnishing money for other attentions which be requires.— Telegraph tj- Messenger. A Summary of Mr. Peabody's Benefac tions. —The following summary of his ben efactions is the best and most eloquent eulogy that we can pronounce upon his life : To the Institute at Baltimore, $1.400, 900 To the Institute at Danvers, 200,000 To the poor of London, 1,750,000 To the Southern Educational Fund, 2,500,000 To Harvard University, 150,000 To Yale College, 150,000 To Washington College, 60,000 To other objects, 386,000 Making a total of $6,596,000 To this amount fehotild be added the princely fortune of $1,400,000, which was distributed among his relatives during his second visit to the United States, making ,a grand total of $7,998,000 distributed by him during his lifetime in amounts of no ticeable size. While so. free and open - handed in his public benefactions, however, in private charities he was for outdone by others. He appeared to regard himself as the trustee of an immense fund for the ben** efit of common humanity, but chose to be* stow his charity in a way that would bring forth great and noticeable results ; and conscious that he did his full duty in this respect, left to others of different tempera ment the alleviation of individual cases of suffering and distress. The Excursion Train For the Fair.— Dispatch from Solon Robinson.—Atlanta, November 15.—An excursion train left here this merning with the Hon. Simon Cameron, the Hon. G. W. Woodward. Gen. Horace Gapron, Colonei J. W. Forney, Hon. Columbus Delono, and daughter and others, for the Fair at Macon. The engine, Governor Bullock, was de corated with stats and stripes, and the en<* gine and coaches were adorned with the ipottoes: “To Georgia’s Harvest Ilome We Come!” “A Common Interest Joins our Hands:” “Glad Plenty Laughs;” “The Valieys Ring;” Reviving Commerce Lilts Her Head;” and “He who is the staunchest at the Plow or Flail will be the knight to slav the Dragon’s Tail.” The guests have been received every where with marked respect, and are treat ed with the utmost cordiality by the Coins mittee from the Georgia Agricultural soci ety, Colonel Hulbert aud Governor Bill* lock. Solon Robinson. -- . ■ Legal Advertising. —Mr. Peyton was per mitted to introduce a bill to protect editors and printers, and to preserve evidence. The bill provides that in all suits in any of the Courts in the course of the administration of insolvent estates, in which it may be necessary to make publication or give no tice by advertisement in newspapers, the printer’s fees shall be paid in adyanee. Passed the first reading and refered to the Judiciary Committee —Nashville Union and American. We hope the next Georgia Legislature will pass a simalar law. _ *- # Terribt.b Outrage. —The persons of two young ladies were terribly outraged on Thursday morning last, about thirteen miles from this city on the Daleville road. One of them is so terribly injured that it is doubtful whether she will recover from her injuries. The negro was .traced to this city, and arrested this morning. Quite a crowd of his colored brethren have gath ered around him, and are apparently sym pathizing with him. He will bejearried be« fore the young ladies, and if he is recog nized, as the scoundrel, he ougHt not to see another sun.— Enfaula News. The failure of the ancient house of A. Bin inger & Cos., importers of wines and liquors. New York is announced. The house was established in 1716, and was the oldest concern of the kind in that city. The Bainbridge Sun is enlarged.

Acting Commissioner Douglass has de.- ided that purchasers of gold dust are not subject to the special tax of bullion broket o Dealers in retorted gold are he.d to be within the meaning of the law, subject to the tax, and to be regarded as brokers buy ing or selling bullion. The question v ' ,IS submitted by the assessors at Santa re, New Mexico. A delegationYof prominent Canadians, favorable to annexation, called at the W bite House yesterday, and had an interview with the President. They represent that a large portion of the people of Canada ate anxious to join their fortunes to those of the United States- Another scheme for continuance of radical power. It makes little difference whether it is Canada or San Domingo, whether the representatives are white or black, whether it is beneficial tb ns as a nation, or what the cost is, it gives to the Radical party more Senators and Congressmen, and that is all that is cared for. This session of Congress will be rife with plans to bolster up by legis lation the fast decaying power of the Rad ical party, and nothing wyi be left undone to so secure the Senate that they will have a majority for years to come. If the elec tions about to take place in iexas can be carried by force or fraud, the State will be divided into two or more States, for the purpose of gaming Radical Senators, dhe same plan will be tried with Georgia. It is stated upon good authority that Attorney General Hoar will be shelved by his acceptance of the vacant seat on .4he bench of the Supreme Court of the United States. A relative of General Grant, Judge McKennon, of Pitsburg, is spoken of as Hoar’s successor. Judge Peireponi, of New-York, is also mentioned. Peirepont is o 'the Sir. Pertinax McSycophaut school of politician, and has ingretialed himself into the good graces of o£ Ulysses by several huge doses of disgusting flattery mingled with the allusions to the second term of the present immaculate incumbent. I think the bend of the back, the supple* ness of the knees, and the soft-soap of the New York McKjcophant will win the place: The capitalists in this city, notwithstand ing the disgraceful tyrany, fraud and cor® ruption practiced by Mayor Bowen and those in power, seem to have faith iu the per manence of the* capital, the best evidence of which is to be found in the substantial and costly private improvements that have been made here during the past eight months, the finest of which is an immence brown-stone hotel erected by YV. W, Cor.* coran, Esq:, on Yermobt Avenue, nearly opposite the Presidential Mansion. Ihe hotel is built on the most approved plan, containing all the modern convenience*, in fact, everything that will conduce to com fort'and luxury. It is called the Arlington House, after the estate owned and occupied by Gen. Robert E. Lee (the great confede rate chieftan) prior to the war, which is situated on the heights overlooking tho city, on the other side of tire Potomac. the Currency Printing Bureau received only a small amount of currency to day from one of the Bank Note Companies in New York, and both of the companies have notified the Department that they will not be able to furnish any tomorrow. So it is the public interests are subservient to the actions of these special pet jobists of Mr. BontweU. Will the great economist and financier tell us what benefits is derived from the printing of notes, bonds and car rency partlv in New York and partly here We have had nothing but trouble and de lay ever since the change has been made, but what cares the Secretary for the an noyancc to the public so long as his Pres idential backers, the bank note companies, are bonefitted? At tho Cabinet meeting today the Secret reterv of War submitted General Ame’s regulations and details of officers for the election in Mississippi, which is approved by the President. Ames and his subordi nates ars a precious set of conniver*, and will do all they can to cheat Judge Dent out of his election, which lie claims he will carry by forty thousand majority, Gen Grant, however, says they shall have a fair election, and that is all is asked to bury Bontwell, Creswell a.id his crew forever from sight in Mississippi. The hotels are filling up. The streets pre*- sents quite an animated appearance. An im mense business will be done this session in job*. “Onr Uncle” will be terribly fleeced, Every imaginable scheme fi>r depleting the Treasuty will be tried. I will keep yon posted as to these jobs and the parties interested from the highest to the lowest. Look out for some rich itemes! * * * — * ... : West Florida Elections- — We gather some particulars from the Marianna Cou rier of the 11th • The election passed off without the slight* est disturbance in any of the counties vo ting.
