WEEKLYBANENR-WATCHMAN TUESD AY AUGUST
A WAR WITH MEXICO.
The Southern auues have every
thing to gain and but little to lose
by a afar with Mexico. While the
North will bear tbe brunt of the
burthen, the {South, being nearer
the aeat of the strife, will reap the
greater part of the spoils. The
benefit that this war will be to our
section will far overba'ance the
cost to us. Mexico not being a
marine power, will be powerless to
b ockadc our ports, and so com
as Oc uninterrupted. The
price of everything, cotton not ex
cepted, will advance, and fresh en
ergy infused into our people. lhis
war will not, either, interfere with
our agricultural or industrial inter
ests, as there are enough idle men
in our countr) to form an army suf
ficient to whip Mexico, without
drawing on our laboring classes.
Bat the happiest results of the war,
not only to the South, but to the
whole country, will be the final set
tlement of sectional strife, and re
store that national pride and kindly
feeling tht existed betweet the
North and South before the late civ
il war. The gallantry of the South
ern soldiers will win the admiration
and love of the Northern peopli
and the bloody chasm be eternally
bridged. And we believe, lurthei
that it will eventually result in pen
sioning the Confederate as well as
the Union soldiers, and place every
section of our common country up
on an equal footing. We are heart
ily in lavor of a war with Mexico
being declared, and don’t care how
soon the proclamation is issued. It
must eventually come, and in our
opinion, now is the accepted time.
The Mexicans are a mongrel, vil
lainous race, and will give us trou
ble until they arc effectually sub
jugated. Uncle Sam can “wipe them
out” with one hand tied behind his
back, and we want to see the old
man stirred up. A war with Mex
ico must be successful, and it will
also strengthen the democratic par
ty an J give it is long lease of power.

The State University, we see by
tbe Athens Banner-Watchman, has
made a most generous offer to the
Technological School, provided it is
located in that city. It proposes to
give it the Rock College, a hand
some building, admirably suited for
the purpose of the institution, and
also sites on the campus, on which
to erect any other structures the
school may need. The University
also, tenders a free use of all the up
plianc'js in the College of Agricul
ture and Mechanic Arts, the lec
ture rooms, library, etc., etc. These
advantages will be worth fully
$400,000 to the School of Technol
ogy, and in the event of its location
elsewhere they would have to be
purchased with the cash.
This is certainly a most liberal of
fer, and ought to spur up the cit i-
zens of Athens to a determination to
vote the $34,000 in bonds necessary
to secure the establishment of tiie
institution there. As we said in a
previous article not long since,
Athens has decided advantage over
every other aspirant for the school,
even if a site for the building had
to be purchased outright, and the
school had to be built up from the
foundation, it should be establ shed
in a city already recognized as the
center of learning in the State. Its
. being tfceie will uot only enable its
teachers and to have ready
access to the apparatus and other
appliances of tbe State University,
necessary for the iratruction ot
> outh in the mechanical arts, but it
Will enable young men to carry on
their academic and technological
education at the same time, and at a
great saving of time and money.
This, of itself, it a tremendous in
ducement for locating the school at
Athens, and when to it it added the
offer held out by the University, as
above stated, it ought to finally set-
tie tbe matter, provided, of course
the people of Athens show their de
sire for the school by voting the
money necessary to secure. This
is a subject in which every citizen
of Georgia has a direct personal in
terest, and all things considered, no
more eligible location for .this insti
tution than Athens could possibly
be found.—Savannah Timet.

A Lawyer's Bemarttable Defense of aTblef
Jnet Af.< r the War.
LouleTllle Times.
A few years after the war Ed
Cullms, a shiltless fellow of Mercer
county, was indicted for stealing
cattle. Tne case came Jtp before
Judge J. C. Wickliffe, now United
States attorney here, then circuit
juoge. The trial was in the court
house at Harrodsburg. PhilThomp-
son, jr., was prosecuting attorney,
and Phil Thompson, sr., and Col
onel Tnomas C. Bell, now assistant
United States attorney here, ap-
peareil for tne defense. Ed Butts
was circuit clerk. Collins had been
a soldier in the federal army, while
every man on the jury, the prose
cuting attorney, circuit clerk and
the judge himseit had (ought for
the conlcderacy.
The witnesses were brought for
ward and a plain case of theft was
made out against Collins. T ne
01.ly dependence of the defense was
ths testimony of Collins’ daughter
Rase, .who was to prove an alibi.
Sue was a beautiful woman, with
well-rounded figure, deep black
eyes, a complexion in which the
hues of health sat beauteously en
throned, and black hair that swept
uiiconfine-I almost to the flior in
long waves. She was made to tell
her-stoiy for all it was worth, and
Colonel Bell made a touching plea,
appealing to the sympathies of the
jury for a beautiful woman in dis
tress, with all the power of lan
guage ue could summon. But the
veteiaas ot Donelson and Shiloh
were unmoved.
Tuen old Phil Thompson laid
himself out to mystify tjiean and
raise a doubt of the prisoner’s guilt,
and he, tqp, finally began to appeal
to tl.eir gallantry. In the midst of
a glowing sc itence, however, he
lound the jury yawning, looking out
of the window and wholly inatten
tive. Breaking off his pathos, the
old lawyer leaned back on a table
a moment, eyed the jury quizzically
with a humorous twink.e in his eye
and said:
"Look here, gentlemen, this steal
ing was done during the war, and
you can’t do anything with a man
foi that. You, Tom Mundy! he
continued, turning and pointing to
the foreman of the jury, a strapping
big Kentuckian; “don’tyou reinem-
oer tnat sheep you stole in Powell s
Valley? You can’t convict Ed.
Collins.” Tbe-e mas a general wa
king up of the jury* a smile
went round. “And you, Ben Bond,
you know that horse you stole front
Lor.l Alexander in the spring of
1862? You can’t send a man to
pri*on for stealing cattle.
Tne smile broke intoan open guf-
law in one or two places, and half
a dozen men on the back seats stood
As the old man took up the jury
one oy one and recalled his short
comings the laughter became gen
eral and continuous. Finally he
said: “And there’s my Phil. Wasn’t
lie one of Morgan’s worst horse
thieves? What can he say against
Ed. Collins? And you, Ed. Butts:
you lemember that raid on that old
Yankee sympatlvzcr in East Ten
nessee? And can you raise your
voice against him? And his honor
on the bench, if the truth were
known ” But the rest of the
sentence was drowned in a shout
of laughter and uproar of applause
that shook the building.
The jury was out ten minutes
and they brought in a verdict tor
acquittal.

Tbe Am rlcan Editor Whose Detention Has
Kalsed Such a Hubbub.
The arrest and detention of Edi
tor Cutting by the Mexican author
ities has attracted the attention of
•he whole continent, and illustrates
the bitter feeling that exists between
neighbor* on the banks of the Rio
Grande. This animosity comes
from the lawless bands on both
sides of the river and
have been praeticed on one another
tor years.
The facts :n the present rupture
are about as follaws: Mr. Cutting,
while an American citizen, lives in
the Mexican town El Paso del
Noite, and edits and publishes a
newspaper called El Ccntinela.
In this journal, which is printed in
he Spanish language, he attacked
rival named Medina, who had is-
ued a prospectus for the publics- -
ion of another newspaper. He
denounced the new enterprise as a
scheme for swindling advertisers.
Medina promptly had recourse to a
Mexican co irt, and lorced his as
sailant to sign a retraction. Mr.
Cutting immediately crossed the
Rio Orande, and published an
American newspaper known as the
El Paso Herald a card reiterating
his as>ertion that Medina was a
swindler. On Mr. Cutting’s return
to Mexican soil he was arrested a
second time on Mexican soil and
kept in jail a month, when he was
ottered by the supreme court of
Chihuahua is freedom upon bail.
This he is reported to have refused,
•in the ground that he had appealed
ti tne United States government
for icdress, which seems to be slow
about coming, and in the meantime
me whole border becomes inflam
ed. It is safe to say that this affair
will be diplomatically healed be
tween the governments, but that the
hostility which' it has engendered
will cool without some blood-spili
ng is not so ceitain.

Two Men Descend into s Well and are Suf
focated.
Baltimore, Aug. 13.—John Car-
well and Henry Martin lost their
■ives on account of a bet of $1
With several other men they had
ueen engaged digging a well in the
yard ol 'he National Consumers
xieat Company, on North Paca
street The well was completed
last Saturday, and- when the men
were about to leave the contractor
told them in case they should return
or their tools on no account were
they to go into the well, as he fear
ed there would be an accumulation
of foul air in the' pit. Carwell and
Martin went lor their tools this
morning but could not get them, as
the contractor had not arrived.
Wht’e waiting for him, a bet of one
loliar was made between Herbert
H>nimond, brother of the manager
>1 the establishment, and Edward
Tennant, that the water in the well
was not twenty feet deep. Car-
Well agreed to godown and find out
by measurement. When about
twenty or thirty feet down, about
half tho depth of the well he cried
out: “Oh, my, this foul airi” but
did not ask to be hoisted up.
A short distance from the water
is a platform on which a pump is to
be placed. On reaching this , plat
form Carwell stopped and placed
the bucket on it. He stood for a
second or two, staggered like a
drunken man, then pitched, head
foremost, into the water. Heniy
Martin, seeing his friend’s danger,
seized the rope and slid down the
well, but he nj sooner touched the
platform than he, too, fell into the
water. Grappling-irons were Dro-
curcd and the bodies brought to the
surlace. An Wamination showed
that death waskaused by suffoca
tion. Both men/.eave destitute fam
ilies.’

was not judicious to do so. The
feeling is too bitter, he said, and
lives of Americans, particularly I
from Texas, are in great jeopardy.
Thq bodies of two Americans had

murdered. The agent said he
would leave the country at once, |
