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 TECHNOLOGICAL THE CLL’VERU’S CASE. thousand one hundred anJ sixty dollars’ worth of property for taxa tion, and 1877, the year the act was 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.

No lives lost 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.
