Orders were given j to drop our boats and board her, but at the i * same moment her yawl dropped into the i No Excuse for the Bloody Deed Only ne A Big THE ARAB SLAVERS. To this day there is an occasional cargo of "blacks quietly picked up on the African coast and run up the Red sea, while it is no secret that hundreds of slaves are marched across the Soudan country and openly sold on the north coast. When every other nationality had been forced to quit the nefarious traffic in human flesh, the Arabs took hold and for ten years they defied the power of the alli ance. "When I was first sent ou£ to the east coast as a midshipman on H. M. S. Rover, every Christian nation was assisting to pre vent the traffic, but it goes without dispute that England was the only nation enter ing heartily into the work. She has done more on sea and land to break up ownership in human flesh than all the rest of the world combined. In only one or two instances on our station did the Rover receive anything like hearty support from the vessels of other cations, and in half a score of cases the crews of merchant vessels gavo us information cal culated to assist our enemies. The Arab craft were not always com manded by Arabs. Renegade Americans, Frenchmen, Spaniards, and men of other na tionalities were interested, and it was these men who gave us the most trouble. They were old hands in the business, up to the tricks and dodges, and they gave us many a useless chose and played us many a sharp game. The favorite slave craft was the * dhow, of light draught, great spread of can vas, easily managed, and a fast sailer in any sort of a breeze, but various syndicates had purchased brigs, schooners and small ships, and they were flying all sorts of colors and professing all sorts of occupations. They came down the east coast from Juba to So- fala, a distance of a thousand miles, measured by the trend of the coast. For two years England had only two slave catchers on this long line, and it did not require much sharp ness to get out a contraband cargo. . The mouth of every river on that 9past has from two to five outlets, and many of them spray out into long inlets and false channels, traversing miles of swamp or low land, and twenty cruisers could not have kept the coast tinder strict guard. The Rover was a fast sailing brig, but she should have been a steamer to carry out the programme laid downforher. One day just as we were ready to sail from Masimba, after making some needed repairs, on American merchantman came in with three blacks aboard. They had beed picked up off a raft at sea a hundred miles down the coast. The Yankee captain brought them aboard and turned them over with the obser vation: “ SP “I’m a-standing neutral on this blackbird question, captain. It seems wrong to drag these niggers off and make slaves of ’em, but onr constitution permits slavery. I never owned one and never shall, but we’ve got to have slaves or we can’t have cotton and sugar. These poor devils have no doubt got a story to telL Maybe it will furnish a pointer for you and maybe it won’t. I’m a-standing neutral, os I said before. If you can get anything out of them go ahead.” We had two or three interpreters aboard, and it wasn’t long before we learned that a brig called the Lion had put in at the mouth cf the Ziuga, seventy miles down the coast, and was loading a cargo. The three men had escaped from a barracoon three miles from the coast, reached the water and built a raft, and, although realizing that there •was not one chance in a hundred for'their lives if they drifted out to sea, they took it, and bad been afloat two days and two nights when piclfed up. The brig had not begun load cargo when they escaped. Indeed, tbs barracoon held only about eighty captives, •while she wanted two hundred or over, and it would be four or five days before her com plement was ready.. The brig referred to professed to be a mer chantman. We had overhauled and boarded her twice without finding anything suspi cious, but yet we had been told several times that she was one of the luckiest crafts in the slave trade. Here was a golden opportunity, and the story of the blacks was hardly coin- \ pleted before the Rover had made sail. We \were in luck in carrying a fine breeze with us for fifty miles dowu the coast, then we got oat’s paws and calms, a squall or two, and it was evening of the second day before we roomded the point and looked into the bight, at tme west 6ide of which was the mouth of the &iga. This bight was .seven or eight • fnilessng by a varying width, being shaped likea^pr, with the large end toward the sea. hi jitill had a light breeze to work un- der, and^b 0 ^ was sent ahead to take sound ings, and^fcmoved up the bight about two miles. ThuBpo anchored to wait for another day. About 11 <Mock at night the tide began'to run out, and it came a laqd breeze, but the latter blewltoelf out in half an hour, and just as two boa»mM been ordered down to take their statioimfvhere they could intercept and board the sla^r if she should come out. She might have ^jnpleted her cargo and might not, but having run in under our very nose, as it were, henjerew would be anxious to get the blacks aboard and bo off at the . earliest moment. As tA wind died away the boats were recalled, and\alf an hour later a light fog settled down on the water and cir cumscribed our vision to a'distance of fifty feet. Order's were given iW strict silence aboard, aud during the rest of the night a D small boat might have pulled all around us and beard nothing to indicate our presence. When morning came the men were turned up and with the least possible noise, and we wait ed for the sun to disperse the fog before pip ing to breakfast. In that fog wa were a ghostly ship and a ghostly crew, but after half an hour s wait ing the fog began to bleak up into queer shaped tougues aud rifts and drift ,away, and all of a sudden it vanished and left us a clear vision. A wild yell broke from every en listed man aboard, for there, hardly musket shot away, almost stationary on the dead tide, was the Lion, the brig we were in search of. She had left her moorings with the wind and tide, but the former had failed her, and the fog coming on had obliged her to anchor for the night. She had been with in a mile and a half of us all night, aud had lifiTxl her anchor in the early morning to drift down with the last of the tide and be ready to make her offing with the first of the land breeze. The yell of surprise and satisfaction from our decks was echoed by one of astonishment i j Liek Struck. The two negroes, Will Jackson anil Evans Sanders have acknowledged at tempting to kill John Jones on Thurs day night,” said Sheriff Weir to a Ban ner man yesterday. “Can you give me an interview with the would-be murderers?” “Certainly said” the Sheriff, soon we off n fte e gm«n? U 'i ' vvere aboarfl the streetcar,accompanied ihes m ner decks, j by Justice Evans, who went up to see if they wanted waive a preleminary ex amination and fix the bond. Sheriff Wier has Will Jackson con fined in one of the upper cells while Evans Sanders is looking through the hajs below. Will Stephens alias IV ill Jackson, was brought down and the reporter intended them together. VI am the one that struck John Jones,” said Evans Sanders, “and I will tell it to you just as it happened. I did not see him at the Fair Grounds, nor did I know that he had any money. Jim Lee brought John Jones to my house, and when I returned home I found him sitting at the corner of my house. I said to my wife: •Hello, who is that stranger? She said she did not know, and said that if my little hoy had not been at home she would have left. She said that he bad done nothing hut that she was scared. John Jones left thehouse, and me and Will Stephens, alias Will Jackson followed him. Can’t dared go aloft, but they let fall or hoisted state persistently what time it was when ? 1 fl- rt l.Kn/vrr, niiw^lincA /in th/I * * water, and captain (>/id crew tumbled into it to escape us. There vas a little delay in get ting away, one of Inn- men stopping behind for a moment, but when the yawl headed up the bight, it was at such a pace as to dis courage us. We had two boats down, but it was the other one which pursued the yawl, ■while I was ordered to board the slaver and take possession. We pulled straght for her, ■but before we got alongside pandemonium broke loose. The fellow who lingered behind ■had knocked.the fastenings^ off which covered’the tito"hatches and the blacks swarmed up and over the brig like so many hornets. Those dusky fellows were submissive enough when overawed, but as they came on deck tc find themselves in possession they got rid oj their light chains, and menaced us from every foot of the rail. They could not under stand what had occurred, aud. all ships and all crews were alike to them. They seized whatever weapons they could get hold of, put themselves under a couple of leaders wh< had probably been chiefs, and dared us tc board I pulled back to our craft for instruo tions, and was ordered to take ono of the in terpreters back with me and let him explain the situatioit It was impossible for him tc do so owing to the yells and shouts which greeted iis. They could see him, and see that he was not one of us, but when he stood up and made signs the confusion was increased. The other boat now returned from her vain chase, but we had os yet formed no plan when the land breeze sprang up and the blacks be gan to make sail on the brig. There must have been two or three among them who had been aboard of a sailing craft, or they were sharp enough to study out the rig and dis cover which ropes to haul on.

Gunbj Jordon, president of the Third Nation al bank and of the Georgia Midland Construction companys returned from a visit to New York a few days agb he learned that B. T. Hatelier, formerly of Columbus, but now of Macon, had been here during bis absence and stated that Jordan had robbed hint in a business transaction in connection with the con struction company. Jordan, accompanied by J. W. Mur- phv, went to Macon Tuesday, and Jor dan addressed Hatcher a communica tion asking whether he was the author af the language attributed. Hatcher replied, saying that he had no near personal friend in Macon that he could trust with the matter,he would come to Columbus on Friday, which he did, and the correspondence then pro ceed. In one of Hatcher’s notes he said: “I did say, in speaking of the man- Sheriffs To Meet. Special to tlie Banner.

After the opening, Governor Gordon ill deliver an address to the sheriffs of the State, which alone insures a large attendance.

John but there were enough left on guard to j said I am going over to town to catch thwart our efforts. If we could have used oup pistols and cutlasses we could have been on her decks in two minutes, but our orders were not to injure a man of them, our cap tain hoping that offer their first spurt, was over the interpreters might find opportunity to explain. What followed the coming of the breeze has never been detailed except in official re ports. The wind came up strong and gusty, showing an atmospheric disturbance inland, and the management of a vessel was some thing that no one aboard understood. She had got her nose pointed up the bight by the time the breeze took her, and away 6he moved as fast as we could pull our boat behind her, yawing to starboard or port in such a way that ter wake was like a rail fence. The blacks evidently wantjed to return to land, and as she moved that way their yelling was tremendous. After a little practice at the whbel the helmsman kept a better course, but the breeze gusted up strong every few min utes, and during these gusts he lost his nerve and everything was in confusion. However, the brig kept advancing up the bight all the time, and our two boats followed behind. She was holding tolerably fair for the mouth of the river, and we had made up our minds that she would certainly be beached when she suddenly fell off, wabbled about, came up into the wind again, and, after hanging for a moment, paid off and turned almost on her heel and headed for the ocean. Things must have been at sixes and sevens aboard, for tho whole crowd yelled in terror. We did not know until later on what had caused this erratic movement. The crew oi the slaver, after pursuit had been given over, rested on their pars to see the affair out. When the brig headed up the bight they cut across her bows to recapture her, not seeing us in her wake. They probably attempted to hook on to her fore chains, but in any event they got in her course and were run down and sent to the bottom as surely as ii the blacks had planned it. Not a man es caped. When the brig headed for the sea th« breeze helped her along faster, and the helms man got back his nerve and managed to hold her pretty even. Our own craft slipped hei anchor and made sail as a matter of precau tion, but the Lion passed her by a quarter oi a mile aud held straight out. We had now to pursue the foolish crowd, tfhich we did of soon as our boats could be recalled. W« hoped that the seas now getting up would dis able the blacks, but few, if any, of their seemed to mind it. We could sail five feel to her one, and we ran as close as was pru dent and made every effort to get them tc understand that we were friends. They an swered us with threat and menace. "Whet we fired a gun, hoping to frighten them into submission, it seemed to have ju£t the oppo site effect. She was held straight out to sea, and we followed, feeling that disaster must soon happen. She was a good ten miles out when we got the word to reef and dew for an approaching squall, and we were hardly ready for it when it came booming down aud shut out sight of everything for ten minutes. When it had passed the brig was bottom op the train. Me and Will were walking side by side and John had his hand against his side and again remarked: ‘No by God I am not going hack,’ “I then struck him on the head with a rock and he fell. After I knocked him down me and Will ran oil'and went home. After staying at home we went back to see what had -become of him, and when we reached the place we could not find him.” “Why did you go back to see him?” asked the reporter. “Will wanted to go back, as he had never seen any one hit before, and wanted to see if the blow was fatal. I did not hit him but one lick; and did not attemDt to drag hint off in the woods; neither did we rob him. Evans says that Will did not attempt to hit the negro. Both of the criminals are as hard look ing as negroes can be. Evans Sanders is smooth-faced*and N as black.as a stack of black cats. Will Stephens alias Will Jackson, has also a hard countenance, and has lately been paid out of the chain-gang for riot. He was raised in this city, while Evans Sanders hails from Montieello, but has lived in Ath ens for the past five years. “One breaks the glass and cuts his fingers; But they ivho Truth and Wisdom lead, Can gather honey from a weed.” Those who are wise, and who love the truth, will believe What we say when we tell them that Dr. Price’s Favorite Prescription has done more to relieve the sufferings of women, than all other medicines now known to science.

The.election of Dr. G. A.

He shortly there-after entered the ministry, and has filled sev eral important charges with marked ability and great favor. As a friend remarked yesterday! “Dr. Nunnally has done a great deal and always does well; he is every inch a man and his election as president of Mercer was most fortunate.” At the time of his election Dr. Nun nally was stationed at Anniston, Ala. where his congregation had just finished a $50,000 church for him. He gave up a fine salary, and the pleasantest asso ciations to jreturn to his native state, and assists in the work of the education 6f her sons.

Fremdenblatt tells of a machinist in Lu- beck who got an iron splinter in his eye, which could not be discovered by any of the local eye doctors. He was informed that he would have to prepare .to lose the injured organ. The man went to Dr.. Binder and told him his trouble. “Ah, then,” said the popular doctor, “we may try first some other remedy. Have you a good sized handkerchief on you!” “Yes, but it’s a colored one.” “Oh, tho color makes no difference. Give it here, my lad.” Dr. Binder twisted the handkerchief into a rope, which he coiled round bis patient’s neck, tying it tightly till the man thought he would suffocate, and his eyes started from their sockets. Dr. Binder now examined the sore eye, and detected the splinter in a por tion of the ball which had hitherto i-emained invisible. He proceeded to remove It and the eye was saved. “My conscience, I thought you’d have choked me straight off 1” said the patient, as soon as he bud recovered his breath. “Pooh!” answered Binder; “don’t make a fuss about such trifles.” „ struction Company, that I would rather you had stopped me and robbed me on the street than had you manage the stock and company’s business as you have, as then I could have defended my purse; when, as it was, after falsely obtaining my signature, £ could do nothing. Now my opinion is un changed, and I reiterate what I before said, that you took advantage of the confidence of your friends, and under guise of commercial usage, robbed them by manipulation of the stock, and de pressing the .same by deferring the set tlement of the construction company to such time as best subserved your inter est, and in a large measure freezing out tlie first promoters and friends of the railroad. But I am a fair man, and would not knowingly wrong you. If you can convince me after a full examination of your hooks and papers relating to all the transac tions of the Georgia Midland Construc tion company that I have wronged you I will cheerfully make such amends as may meet the case. But until that is done, I will most emphatically believe in my statement, that under the guise of commercial usage, the shareholders of Columbus, or a large part of them, have'been robbed, and I among them. Jordan then sent the usual request for a retraction, which was refused. Jordan requested Hatcher to name the time and place out side of the State for continuing correspondence. Hatcher replied: “If you mean" a challenge,say so. I am prepared to name time, place and weap ons. I shall pay no attention to the rules of the code, or go outside of the State to continue this correspondence.’ Jorden’s reply reminded Hatcher that it was a felony to send a challenge in this state, and stated that Murphy was authorized to act for him and would talk freely of the details. In the conver sation between Murphy and Hatcher’s friend, Rollin Jefferson, Jefterson would agree to use nothing but bowie knives with ten-inch blades, to be used in ten foot ring, saying Hatcher was deaf and could not hear commands. Murphy refused to allow Jordon to fight in that manner, but would accept any firearms named—shotguns.rifles or pistols. This ended the negotiations, and Jorden published a card in this moiling -En quirer denouncingIIatcher’s statement as a base lie. Further trouble is hourly expected. .
