WEDNESDAY, MAY 20. 1866.
Our thanks are due to Messrs, Be
vill & ‘Yragg, for daily copies of the New
York World and Horrid. Our readers will

newspapers and magazines of all kinds,
regularly furnished hy every mail, to sup
ply the demand of our reading public.
|gs-Mr. C. M. Ladd, the Traveling
Agent for the Georgia State Directory, has
been in our city for several days past. YVe
have met this gentleman several times, and
we are glad to learn that he has been lib
erally encouraged by th - * merchants and
other business men of Thomasville.
The work lie represents is tiuly one of
ere-it utility to all. and we hope he will
meet with as liberal patronage elsewhere
a he has here.
AYe call the attend nos our readers to
the advertisement in auother column.
Editor or TtiF. Qt itman Baxnfr.—By
his card, we find that Col. C. AY'. Styles, of
the Quitman Banner, accorded to us the
honor of a visit to our sanctum on Tuesday,
b t unhappily we were engaged at the
Court House and did not meet him. As
the Colonel is a lawyer as well ns editor,
and our Court will continue for about two
weeks, we hope he will find if interesting
to remain among us for several days, and
thus afford us another opportunity of mak
ing his acquaintance.
AYe will take this occasion to say, that
the Banner is a well conducted paper, neatly
gotten up and full of spirit ; and shouldany
of our readers feel disposed to extend their
patronage in the direction of Quitman, we
recommend it cheerfully to their considora
tien.

AYp are glad to see that cur clever old
friend and fellow citizen. Physician and
Druggist, P. S. Bower, lias returned from

and spirit. During his absence he laid in
a fresh supply of drugs, and his shelve®
and drawers have all been filled tip with

* now, therefore, prepared to meet every

The June Term of this Court commenced
if* session her on Monday last, lion. A.
II Hansel! presiding. As the dockets have
long been encumbered with old cases. Judge
Hanaell has determined to dispose of them,
if possible, nnd the session will accordingly,
v? understand, be pr tracted through next
week. There are very few non-resident
Lawyers in attendance; but we n ticedthe
presence yesterday of fV. B. Bennett. C.
AY. Styles and J G McCall, from Quitman,
an ! Hoa. E. T. Vann, from Madison, Fla.
Up to the present time bu-iness has pro
gressed verj well, and we notice that th”
able Grand Jury was after evil doers in
good earnest. AYe hope they will be able
by their promptness an! vigor, to make
crime less frequent than it has been of late
in this section.
AYOTHER REXCONTRK
A difficulty occurred in Thomasville, on
Thursday last, between Jas Russell, Agent
of the Express, and AYiilie Davies, a youth
of seventeen, in which Russell was sho’
three times with a pistol and dangerously
■wounded. His physicians reported him in
a critical condition late yesterday evening,
two balls having entered itis back, which
baffled nil he skill of the physicians to re
move. He has been under arrest, though
confined to his own house by the severity
of his wounds, ever since the difficulty oc
curred. under the charge of an assault, with
intent to commit murder upon the person
of young Davies, w o bravely and success
fully defended his life. It is believed that
Russell will die from the effect of his
wounds; but should Ise survive, his trial
will speedily come off in the Superior Court,
now in se®sion. nnd through motives of pru
dence and delicacy we forbear, for the pre
sent, giving any details on the subject. It
may not be improper to remark, however,
that public sentiment entirely acquits
young Davies and justifies his conduct on
the occasion.
The Tallahassee Floridian should
take the trouble to ascertain the facts, be
fore it proceeds, to pronounce judgment
upon the people of Thomasville. and not
promulgate a tissue of extravagant reports
in advance of examination. The editors
of the Floridian should have learned from
txperience , by this time, that “common re
port ”is not to be believed. Had we pub
lished report, wc should have stated that
Lightfoot shot Richardson through the
breast, and that Richardson cut Lightfoot’s
throat. Neither of these reports were true,
and when the Floridian investigates the
matter, it may have different impressions
of mind.
As to the “ leaven of Unionism ” which
the Floridian says “showed itself in Thom
asville during the existence of the Confed
eracy.” we are not responsible, as we were
absent in the army ; but that ought to be
an extenuating circumstance in the judg
ment of the Floridian , when we consider
■which side that piper takes in the •■ Thom
asv.lle Outrage.” Col. Seward, Judge
Love and others, may. perhaps be able
to explain for the Fioruhan l the origin and
extent of the “leaven of Unionism,” and
als enlighten that journal as to whether
it was a “ Union element” which attempt
ed to slay Richardson. Had Lightfoot
been a Union man. Richardson would never
have fined and imprisoned him, and con
sequently he nould never have been under
the necessity of seeking satisfaction. \Ye
are no apologist for either party, nor shall
■we take upon us the defence or reproba
tion of either, but leave it for an impartial
Court when all the facts shall have been
elicited'.
AYe do defend, however, the community
at lat ge from the imputations of the Fiori
dun, and object to having our people an
nounced as having participated en masse
in a private street brawl.
Elsewhere in our columns to-dav the
Floridian may find fresh matter for its di
gestion. with this difference, however, that
neither of the belligerents were “Federal
officers, soldiers, or colored ” men.

RAILROA TANARUS EXTEXIDJf
Tiie President of the Atlantic & Gulf-
Road is out in a lengthy address to the
citiiens of Savannah, in behalf ot the con
nexion between the Atlantic & Gulf and
the Florida Rail Road, from Lawton, No.
12, on the former, to Lire Oak Sta'ion, on
the latter, a distance of forty-seven and a
half miles. It is well known that this con
nection was made during the war as a mi i
j tarv necessity, but as a part of the iron
i used was furnished by the Florida Road, it
, has since been taken up by the Company,
and the connection thus discontinued. The
i object of Mr. Screven now, is to re-lay the
I track and put the road in operation. He
tells the ci'ixens of Savannah, that if they
will subscribe $75,000, this connection will
’ be put in operation in three months from
j the Ist of July next.
j On this subject we remark, that before
| the war the citizens of Florida opposed
1 any connection with the Atlantic ic Gulf
Road in that direction, on the ground that
such a connection would render the whole
of Middle Florida tributary to Savannah,
1 and tints strike a death blow to the hopes
! of Fernandina as a commercial port. Have
j they changed their sentiments 7
IMIffIAA TllUni'R.
On Saturday evening last, the 16th inst.,
I occurred, sixteen mile? from Thbtnasville,
bn the road leading to Troupville, Loundes
j County, Georgia, one of the most inhuman
butcheries it has ever been our lot to re
cord. The facts, as near as-we been
. able to learn them, aTe as follows;
Joseph Miller, a citizen of Thomas Coun
ty. was quietly sitting in the piazza of his.
house, when several parties, white men,
■ came.upon his premises armed with guns
and other weapons. Hearings noise,.as i.l
persons walking around his house, Mr,
Miller asked in a loud voice who was there
He was answered by the discharge of a
gun, the contents of which lodged in tlie
wall just above his head. The report of
three guns was heard during the contest,
one of which, it is supposed, was fired by
• Mr. Miller at his assailants. The freed
, men on Mr. Miller’s place rushed toward
the scene of conflict, but were threatened
[and driven back by the murderers until
j their bloody work was completed. After
they retired Mr. Miller was found dead,
cut to pieces with a knife. This intorma
! tion was qnic ly brought to town by the
freedmen, and several gentlemen, includ
ing the County Solicitor, Coroner, &c.,
hastened to Mr. Miller's residence, and
confirmed by their observation the report
of the freedmen-. The murderers had made
; good th ir escape during this interval, and
up to this time none of them have been ar
rested. The freedmen who were threat
ened and driven away by the assassins,
j report that they recognized among them,
Azariah Stallings and Thomas Thompson,
neighbors of the deceased, but tliai there
i were many others. This is one of the
bloodiest and most inhuman outrages ever
! perpeti nted in this section, and calls for
the most prompt and determined acfiou on
I |he part of the authorities.

Why Spain Makes War on Chili,
The quarrel between Spain and
Chilt is explained by the New York
j Commercial Advertiser as follows :
A brief glance at the rise and pro
gress of this struggle will enable us
to more clearly comprehend the pres
ent situation. In the month of March,
lbG4 the Peruv an Government b -
came involved with Spain in regard
to certain questions arising out of
cl ims of Spanish residents against
15 ru. A local dispute had arisen at
1 ulanrbo between some Peruvian land
owners and Spanish colonists, in
j which two perst ns were killed and
wounded. ’J he Peruvian courts at
’ once proceeded to investigate the mat
ter, but the Spanish Government, evi
dently in search of a pretext, interfer
ed in the case wh le the investigation
was going on, and ultimately seized
’ the Chincha Island. Insolent demands
followed. These demands were ac
ceeded to by the Government, but the
I indignant people overthrew the gov*
emment. and when the new Pre a idcnt
did not act with sufficient celerity in
wiping out the disgrace, they over
threw him too, and elected to power
the present incumbent, who signalized
his adveut by declaring war forthwith
against the invader and joining in an
aihance with Chili. The latter had
early in the controversy shown stiong
sympathy for Peru, allowing, among
other acts, the Peruvian war ships to
receive coal and enlist men in Val
paraiso, while coal was refused to
the Spanish vessel®, because it had
bi en declared c< ntraband” of war-
The Spaniards were, therefore, indig
nant at the Chilians, and as soon as
the Peruvians had acquieseed in their
urgent demands, they turned their at
tention to the former, exp* cting that
they would ‘‘knuckle undei” without
ceremony. On the 17th of September,
I*os, Admiral Pareji dispatched a
long communication from on board his
flagship to the Chilian Minister, in
which he complain; and of the partialitv
in the matter of supplying coals to the
Peruvians, and further, that insulting
cries and threats against Spain were
permitted with impunity in front of
the residence in Valparaiso of the
Spanish Legation. Admiral Pa'reja
then proceeded to say that unless the
Chilians pclogized for these acts, .and
“one of the forts of the republic salut
ed the Span sh ensign with a salvo of
twenty-one guns” war would at once
be declared. The high-spirited Chili
ans at once spurned these insolent de
mands and forthwith proceeded with
great enthusiasm to prepare for a strug
gle with Spam. Though a b ockade
was immediately established, Admiral
Pareja was utterly unable-’to make it
effective; and finally, when a squad
of daring Chilian sailors captured the
Covadomra, he was so mortified and
chagrined that he ended his life with a
Derringer.
True—lt is not work that kills
men ;it is worry. Work is healthy.
You can put more on a man
than he. can bear. Worry is rust up
on the blade. It is hot revolution that
destroys the machinery, but the fric
tion. Fear secretes acid, but love and
trust are sweet things,
