EXAGGERATIONS OF THE PRESS*
It sccmejj' to be a great pleasure for some
Journals lb Georgia, both Democrat ic and
Republican, to publish, with considerable
ombellfahmont, every ‘wild cat’ story, that
Iwype— to get Into circulation, whether
BHMmfcotnrcd by designing parties, or
4fa)tlated by • some ignoramus, with'
OOt first ascertaining tho facts in she ease*
If such a course is persisted in, it will ob>
terly ruin tho influence of the press—in
fact, the people have been deceived so of*
tea by false statements, that to«day they
kvs no more confidence in the majority of
oowspaper reports than they did in the
Cdtagerated reports telegraphed all over the
eoantry, both North and South, immediate**
If after a battle, during the late war. For
f—laaCß : If the killing of a human being
tehee place In the State of Georgia, wheth
er ft be justifiable homicide or willful mur
der, It le heralded to the world by tho Re*
publican press, as another Ku klux outrage*
end some Journals actually nso every effort
to induce the authorities at Washington to
beOere til the erroneous statements that
fled their way Into newspapers; and that
the whole State with the exception of a few,
ete a band of assassins—’tis true atrocious
murders have been committed within our
State; but why make the citizens of the
whole State suffer for the acts of a few
lawless and unprincipled men ? Wc admit
that we cannot see the object of the Repub/*
llcan press, In continually alluding to these
outrages, and charging them to the ‘chiv*
airy* of the South, unless it is to keep
open the old sores created by the Mate
unpleasantness,' and perpetuate mil
itary rule;
While the people of the South, true to the
Instincts of nature, after having ouco gone
Into the contest, mourn and deplore their
defeat, they are at the same time willing to
'accept the situation/ and expect to live
henceforth as peaceful and law-abiding
citiecns.
Now let us view tho Democratic side:
We see every day in various Democratic
Journals, charges of corruption, &c., upon
different Republican officials— somo of
which, we have no doubt aro correct, while
othore we know to be utterly groundless.
A few editors in the State, only want
to hoar a rumor that certain individuals
h&vo been embezzling funds, for their ini
aglnary brains to work it into a reality*
and to 60 publish it to their readers, We
cite to this fact, wherein Democratic Jour
nals have erred; among the number of Leg
islators appointed by the Senate and House
of Representatives, to investigate the
charges prefered dy Angler and others,
against Bullock, and to look into the affairs
of the State Road, arc several staunch
Democrats, whoso political records are uns
tarnished, and whom naught was ever said
against until they were unfortunately plaw
aed upon the investigating committee men*
tioned; since then, (and before the invess
tigation has commenced) they have all been
dubbed the 'white washing committer/ and
looasod by certain Democratic Journals, of
'playing into the hands of the radicals/ —
Such accusations are unjust; but at the
some time aro not more so, than the ma*
jority of reports that cmcnato from such
sources.
We do say for the sake of the good law*
•biding people of Georgia to stop these
exaggerated, and false statements. The
Georgia has done mere in a few
fUODtbs In putting oar State in her present
•huation, than Bullock, Blodgett & Go.,
oould have done in five years. If an official
officer is charged with fraud we are strongly
sh favor of having due investigation of his
acts, by the proper parties; bat do not be*
lieve in declaring a man a thief until it has
been proven on him.
It is unquestionably the first doty of a
person who takca the position of an editor
mt teacher of men, to seek to teach the
truth. In private life a party may tell a
malicious lie upon another, but it will prob.
Ably be beard only by a few; in that case
of course he commits an error, but the erp
for is tea-fold worse when it appears in
public print, because his statement is more
extensively diffused—therefore every jourp
nalist should be more guarded in his as
sertions, for his influence for good, depends
upon correct assertions It is necessary
to havo parties in all Governments, to de»
▼olop the troth, by public discussions, and
each party should strive to tell the truth
end never under any circumstances, seek to
hide it ‘When men becomo teachers of
morals, law and government, the welfare
and happiness of the human race are their
clients* and they should disdain to sloop to
the weak subterfuges of misrepresentation,
defamation, abuse and slander, bnt ris c
superior to alt unsubstantial and irration'
a! expedients.’
By high, mauly and open discussion the
faote aro more readily brought to light, and
a better feeling between
Individuals, no raattCT how much they differ
rolitic&Hy. Truth was never known to
urt anybody; therefore we say let all jouiv
gala speak the truth no matter where the
‘shod pinches;’ thereby discharging a duty
they owe to their country, their fellow tnan
auu thvir God,
Communicated.
VISIT OF THE OAK CITY HOOK AND
LADDER CO. TO SAVANNAH.
Edilor Sun:
As I was one of the delegation from the
“Oak City Hook and Ladder Company*’that
attended the Savuunah Fire Depart
Parade, which took place Monday, May 2d }
and thinking that probably an account of
that trip would prove interesting to your
many readers, I send you the following for
publication:
On Saturday night the 30th ult., the
delegation, eleven in number, got aboard
the passenger train at this place and soon
were speeding away at the rate of 30 miles
per hour on our way to the “Forest City”
of the South. We had a jolly crowd along
and our only regret was that some of the
boyß had to be left behind. Under the care
of that clever and polite conductor, Mr. Tom
Lake, (and by the way, we had that polite
“newspaper man," Gentry of the Savannah
News, along) we soon reached Lawton sta
tion, where we quit our end of the road and
took the main line ; when nothing of note
happened until we reached Jessup, where
we met the Oglethorpe Steam Engine Corns
pany of Savannah—they being there to
welcome a company from Atlanta. After
our boys had done ample justice to the in
viting breakfast prepared at the Jessup
House, our company was called on by the
Oglethorpeß for a speech. Captain Belcher
responded in a neat and appropriate ad
dress aud was answered by one of the Sa
vannah boys in an eloquent style.
Arriving at the Depot in Savannah on
Suuday morning, we met a delegation
from the Metropolitan company when, in
an eloquent address, one of their number
bid us a hearty welcome to the festivities
which called forth our visit to that city.
Again Captain Lit’s eloquence was called
into use in introducing the ‘Oak City’ boys
to their hosts the 'Mets.’ We were then
marched to that splendid institution, the
Screven House, our stopping place while
in the city.
The next day, (Monday) took place one
of the greatest and grandest parades known
to the history of Georgia Firemen. At the
hour of 10, the procession was formed and
marched in regular order to Bay street in
front of the Exchange, when the line was
halted for the purpose of inspection by the
Mayor and Aldermen of the city. Then was
made one of the most eloquent and soul*,
stirring addresses to which the writer ever
had the pleasure of listening—the orator
being Col. John Screven,Mayor of the City.
The Col. complimented the appearance of
the Savannah Department, and, in behalf of
the board over which he presides with so
much ability, extended a cordial welcome
to the different visiting companies. At the
conclusion of the Col’s remarks, a loud and
continued shout cf approval was sent up by
the firemen and joined in by the citizens,
which was an indication of the high esteem
in which ho was held by the people who
had made him their chief.
The procession then moved on to the
place appointed for the consummation of
the most important feature of the day, the
place for the greatest friendly contest ever
known in Georgia, to take place. Then
came the time for Savannah. Charleston*
Augusta, Atlanta, Macon, Columbus, and
other cities to exhibit to the world the mas
terial of which they are composed. And
well did the representatives of those cities
sustain that reputation they so nobly gain
ed in tho ditches around Petersburg, At
lanta and other hard-fought battle fields.
I say they sustained their reputation , for
Miey proved on this occasiou as they did by
Allowing Bob Lee and Joe Johnston for
four years, that they love the country that
gave them birth; and, as they once fought
to save it from the advances of the invader
they are equally as eager to save from the
ravages of the fire feind that little all left
its once prosperous people by the misfor*
tunes of a ruinous war. But the ones whom
dame fortune had designated as the happy
victors, were the Washingtons of Savan»
nah, and the JStnas and Mechanics of
Cbarlcstou. Tho time table, however, shows
a record of which the less fortunate com**
panies, notwithstanding the fact that they
were beaten by a few seconds time, might
well feel proud.
At night, the Metropolitans gave a festi
val at which the Bainbridge delegation were
present. After we had freely partaken of
the sumptuous repast—provided by the
‘Mets’for their guests—speeches were made
by Gen. Lovell, Col. Capers, Robert Falli
gant, Esq., and many other prominent gen*,
tlemen. The Oak City delegation being
called on, R. M. Johnson responded in their
behalf. At the conclusion of the festivities
at this place, a large crowd of firemen, ac
companied by a splendid brass band, went
to the Pulaski House for tire purpose of
serenading Gen. John B. Gordon, the “Man
of the 12th of May ” The General made a
short speech in which he gave us the con*
soling assurance that he “had never lost
hope for Georgia.”
The next day the boys were employed
in looking over the city with their new
made friends, the Savannah boys, until
train time, when they were marched to the
Depot in company with some of tho
when the hurried ‘good bye* was said amid
the farewell pressure of hands—tho usual
‘all aboard* announced—the shrill whistle
sounded —and wo were onco again homes
ward bound. Yjs, we were going homc>
and while that word always sounds swee
in the ear of any true-born Southron, sad
indeed was the parting between the broth
er firemen whose hearts were irresistibly
drawn together by the knowledge of the
great and praiseworthy cause in which
they are enlisted, though in different fields.
The Savannah firemenmay rest assured that
the Cambridge boys will ever retain the
fond remembrance of those few but happy
hours spent in the ‘Forest City’.
We arrived safely at home on Wednesday
morning every one of the boys perfectly
delighted with his visit, and eagerly awaits
ing <he time when they can have the Sa
vannah boys np here and retaliate for their
unsparing kindness and hospitality to us
during our pleasant stay in their midst.
Hoping that a vein of affection may be
ingrafted into the hearts of the Bainbridge
and Savannah firemen, and that a bond of
friendly feeling be instituted between them
that may be severed only by eternity 7 itself
I close ray account of the ever to be re
membered trip of tho ‘Oak City’ boys to
Savannah* #- Yours, &c.,

Mr. Patrick Walsh, of Augusta, a rela*
tive ol Pat Walsh of the Chronicle &

of consumption.
The Chronicle and Sentinel gives the fol
lowing account of the arrest of Norris
Terry’s sheriff of Warren county,, and the
cause thereof :
“On Monday night Norris was arrested
by the officer in command of the United
States soldiers stationed at Warrenton, on
a charge of having received bribes from
several citizens of the county. As soou as
he was arrested he was placed in confine
ment, and the case reported to Gen. Terry
at Atlanta.
“It is said that several citizens of the
county had,.in order to avoid arrest on
false grounds by the sheriff, made up a
par & e ar.d given it to Norris, on condition
that he would let the people alone. It is
charged that Norris received the money (
and in consideration thereof proclaimed
peace with the inhabitants. The bribes
which he is charged with having received
were large—amounting altogether to near
ly, if not quite ,$“1000. About $3200 of this
amount was in cash —the rest about $2500
was promissory notes given by citizens of
county.
“The fellow’s lust for money seems to have
been insatiable, and one or two parties
were bled very heavily. It is said that
one planter paid him $1,500 cash, and that
another gave him S?OQ cash. Rumor says
that the Federal soldiers under Norris are
not above suspicion, and that they only
made the arrest because the affair was
leaking out, and they were afraid it would
be heard of at headquarters and an inves
tigation ordered.”
The New Bishop of Savannah.— lgnatius
Per si SCO, just appointed Bishop of Savan
nah, Georgia, by the Apostolic See has had
a romantic history. He was born in Italy,
and was consecrated Bishop of Agra, in
India, about twenty«*six years ago. He
remained in India sixteen years, built a
cathedral, aud established religious houses,
he whole of which were destroyed during
the Sepoy muinty, and he was driven from
hisTliocese. He brought suit against the
East India Company for the damages incur®
red by the destruction of the property of
the Church, and recovered the sum of 90,-
000 pounds sterling. Having been driven
from India, he remained in Naples eigU
years, and came to South Carolina about
two years ago, at the earnest solicitation
of Bishop Lynch of Charleston, during which
time he had charge of Catholic missions in
that State. Bishop Persico succeeds Right
Rev. Dr, Derot, at Savannah, who has been
transferred to the new see of St. Augustine*
Florida. Ex.
The Young Americas, of Macon, at the
Eufaula Anuual Fire Parade, threw 194
feet and 9 inches, and took the prize.
Tna Richmond Disaster. —It has been
ascertained that the number of victims of
the late Richmond disaster is not less than
three hundred and fifty, sixty-five of whom
have died and many seriously injured.
Ex-Gov. Wells has been nominated by
Grant, as Attorney General for Va.
The Cuban Cause. —Gen. Jordan who has
recently arrived in New York from Cuba,
reports the Insurgents in a better condition
now, than at any previous stage of the con*
lest, and that the success of the revolution
