THE CROPS,
u, this immediate neighborhood the coni crops
are very sopromising, not having had a rain in se
ven weeks to ue of any benefit whatever, conse
quently there will not be more than halt a wop
made, if that much. But while we have suffered
we are happy to learn that our neighbors, above
and below us, have had fine seasons, and in some
places the earth was so completely saturated the
fanners were compelled to stop their ploughs. —
We are informed the crops generally are very
promisin'.', so if we make but little corn in this im
mediate section we have cause to be thankful that
the calamity is not general.
Gov. Ritner of Pennsylvania, has issued a Proc
lamation requiring the banks to resume specie
payments on the 13tli August.
ANOTHER SNAKE STORY.
As strike stories are quite fashionable now a
j.ivs, we rive the following as we heard it and are
malm 1 to think it will be very apt to snake the
taker. We h > vcver shall not vou -h for the truth
of the circu it itauee although it is told for the
faat.
Wo are ere libly imforme 1 that while a gent’e
mui 'n M.uion county with one of liis neighbors
was in the woods one day oil a hunting excursion,
they saw something at a day root some distance
from them, rearing and pitching about at a great
late when they concluded they would go and see
what it was and what was .the matter, and to their
great astonishment, when they arrived at the place
they p revive 1 a large Rattle Snake had nearly
o ced a yearling alive, leaving but a lit
tle portion of it * hedd out. In endeavoring to
extricate itself, thu animal would rear up and
attempt to jump from the voracious jaws of its
dev,nvor but would be again gulped back by the
destroyer. It is stated that the snake would have,
swallowed the whole of the animal had it not been
fur its horns!! ! !
“UNITED WE STAND, DIVIDED WE
FALL.”
We a" i:n appeal to our State Rights friends
who appear to ho so sensitive on the subject of
the Sub Treasury, and ask if they will sacrifice
the party because some of their brethren differ with
them on that matter] And what benefit or advan
tage will it be to ns if, by the course some speak
of pursuing, they swell the votes of the Union
party and (as on ■ of the Van Buren candidates for
Cos tigress boastingly renarke 1 in his letter of ac
ceptance) “carry the 'friends of the Administra
tion triumphantly through af the next State and
Congressional elections?” Do the friends of
State Rights reflect upon this matter seriously,
and give the subject that consideration its impor
tance demands ? Do they take into consideration
that every man of the State Rights ticket they re
fuse to support they thereby weaken that Ticket,
and in proportion strengthen that of our oppo
nents ? Do they, we ask, view matters in this
light, and still pursue a course which will hurl the
party into the vortex of destruction, and raise up
on its downfall their opponents victoriously and
triumphantly. We hope not —we trust they will
reflect more seriously upon this matter, ictrace
their erring steps and call bgc(v their rash declara
tions.
By opposition to any portion cf the 'Picket, as
we said before, we weaken that Ticket and
strengthen the opposition; and is there are a man
So blind to reason as not to perceive that such
a CllUrse will prove dangorous and the policy bad ?
Bet us see how matters stand : The State Rights
Party has nominated nine candidates for Congress,
°icof which is a Sub-Treasury man; —the Van
Buren party has nominated the same number, all
.es which are warm advocates of the bill. What
dien, will be the result provided we make this a
trit question? Just this—we lose nine State
Biirhts men in Congress, who would always battle
for the rights of tho States and the liberties of
*he South —who would resist manfully all the ag
firessions of the General Government; would
‘'Andboldly out in open definance of the Aboli
bonists and vote for kicking their abominable pe
titions out of Congress—and lose, with all,
influence of eight Anti-Sub Treasury men.—
on the other hand we ’."mild be mainly in
nta| j n bringing upon our own heads our
1 bitter opponents, who nevor have, nor never
will act with us Upon the main principles for
which we contend—who will support all the as
sumptions of the Prince of Kinderhook and his
co-workers—-who will countenance and vote for
the reception of Abolition petitions—-and who
are, besides all this, heart and hand in favor of the
Sub-Treasury. Thus virtually cuttiug our own
throats—acting instrumentally in the downfall of
of eight Anti-Sub Treasury, and elevating nine
Sub Treasury men, merely because we will not
support one of our own Ticket, who conscieu
ciously differs upon this point from most of his
friends, but who, notwithstanding will always be
found with us upon the main points for which we
battle, and decidedly and openly opposed to Van
Bnrenand his understrappers.
AVe beg of State Rights men to ponder seri
ously over this matter, and reflect upon the con
sequences an opposition to any portion of their
ticket will produce, and we do hope, after mature
reflection they will come to the support of the
whole ticket with zeal and energy—bearing in mind
that never failing truth house divided against
itself cannot stand."

To Phe Tdilors of the Georgia Papers:
Gentlemen :—I inclose you, for publication,
the rules in relation ta claims provided for by
an act of Congress, passed 13th January, 1837, to
provide for the payment of Horses, and other
property lost or destroyed in the military service 1
of the United States; also, the proper forms, by
w hich, affidavits must be drawn. The testimony
should be all duly authenticated, and the signa
tures of the Magistrates before whom the same
may be sworn to, should be certified to be gen
uine.
1 have received the evidence of claims in behalf
of Mr. Reuben Fossett, Mr. David G. Cobb, and
Mr. Terell Ilcnson, Volunteers in Capt. Chas
tains Company, which have been laid before the
proper officer, and a decision on each obtained—
but from want of form, not finally settled. Not
knowing where to athlress these Volunteers, I have
transmitted the papers to Gen. Nelson, Gainesville,
Ca., who will, I have no doubt, afl'ord immediate
information to those interested. I have adopted
this course as the best calculated to give
infonnatioa and instruction to the unfor
tunate Volunteers who have sustained aDy loss. ■
This is my apology for addressing-you-, gentlemen,
and asking the publication. Messrs. C.rieve
Ortne, to whom I shall .direct this letter, will
please give information to the Editors in Mil
ledgeville, of this request.
I am, gentlemen,
Verv respectfully,

“An act to provide for the payment of horses and
other propel ty tost or destroyed in the military ser
vice of the United States," prescribed, in pursu
ance of the 4th section of the said act.
All claims under the provisions .of this act must
be presented at the office of the Third Auditor of
the Treasury Department before the end of the
next session of Congress, and each must be sub
stantiated by such evidence as is hereinafter des
ignated, with respect to eases of the class under
which it falls.
FIRST CLASS OF CASES.
Bv the first section of the law it enacts :
•‘That anv field, or staff, or other officer, moun
ted militiaman, volunteer, ranger, or cavalry,
engaged n the military service of the United States,
since the 18th of June, 1812. or who shall hereaf
ter be in said service, and has sustained or shall
sustain damage, w ithout any fault or negligence on
his part while in saidservice, by the loss of a horse
in battle, or by the loss of a horse w ounded in bat
tle, and which has died, or shall die, of said wound,
or being so wounded, shall be abandoned by order
of his officer, and lost, or shall sustain damage
by the loss of any horse by death, or abandonment,
iii consequence of the United States failing to sup
ply sufficient forage, or beoiu ‘ the rider was dis
mounted and separated from his horse, and order
ed to do duty on loot at a station detatched from
liis horse, or when flic officer in the immediate
command ordered, or shall order, the horse turned
out to graze in the woods, prairies, or commons,
because the United States failed, or shall fail, to
supply sufficient forage, and the loss* was or shall
be consequent thereof, or for the loss of necessary
equipage in consequence of'he loss ot his horse,
as aforesaid, shall be allowed and paid the value
thereof: Provided, That if any payment has been
or shall be made to any one aforesaid, for the use
ami risk, or fiw forage -.li ter the death, or abandon
ment of his horse, said payment shgll be deducted
from the value thereof, unless he satisfy the pay
master, at the time he made or shall make the pay
ment, or thereafter show by proof, that he was
remounted, in which case the deduction shall only
extend to the time he was on foot: And provided,
also if any payment shall have been, orshall here
after be made by any person above mentioned, ou
account of clothing, to which he was not entitled
by law, such payment shall be deducted from the
value of his horse or accoutrements.”
To establish a claim under this provision, the
claimant must adduce the evidence of the officer
under whose command he served when the loss
occurred, if alive; or, if dead, then of the uext sur
viving officer describing the property, the value
thereof the time and manner in which the loss
happened, and whether or not it was sustained
without any fault or negligence on the claimant’s
part. The evidence should also, in case the clai
mant was remounted after the loss, state when he
was remounted, how long he continued so and ex
plain whether the horse whereon he was remoun
ted, had not been furnished by the United States,
or been owned by another mounted militiaman
or volunteer, to whom payment for the use and
risk thereof, or for its forage, whilst in the pos
session of the claimant, may have been made: and
if it had beep thus owned, should name the per
gop, and the command to which lie belonged
And in every instance in which the claim may ex
tend to equipage, thesevera! articles of which the
same consisted, and the separate value ol each,
should be spec fled.
SklirtND CLASS Os CASES
The secorM section of the Jaw eflaefs:
I bat any person Who, in the sairt military
semc’o, as a volunteer or draughted-militiaman,
furnished orshall furnish himself with arms and
military accoutrements, and sustained or shall
sustain damage by the capture or destruction of
the same, without any fault or negligence on his
THE GEORGIA MIRROR
part, or who lost or shall lose the same by reason
of his being wounded in the service, shall be al
lowed and paid the value thereof.*’
Each claim under lilts provision must be es
tablished by the evidence of the officer who com
manded the claimant when the loss happened, if
alive; or if dead, then of the next surviving officer:
describing the several articles lost, the value of
each, whether or not the same were furnished by
the claimant, in what way, and when the loss
occurred, and whether or not it was sustained
without any fault or negligence on his part.
THIRD CLASS OF CASF.S
The third section of the law enacts:
“That any person who sustained orshall sustain
damage by the loss, capture, or destruction, by an
enemy, of any horse, inule, or wagon, cart, boat,
sleigh, or harness, while such property was in
the military service of the United States, either
by impressment or contract, except in cases where
the risk to which the property would be exposed
was agreed to be incurred by the owner, if it shall
appear that such loss, capture, or destruction, was
without any fault or negligence on the part of the
owner ; and any person, who, without any such
fault or negligence, sustained or shall sustain
demage by the death or abandonment and loss of
any such horse, mule, or ox, w hile in the service
aforsaid, in consequence of the failure, on the
part of the United States, to furnish the same
with sufficient forage, shall be allowed and paid
the value thereof.”
To establish a claim under this provision, it will
be necessary to produce the testimony of the offi
cer or agent of the United States who impressed
or contracted for the service of the property men
tioned in such claim, and also of the officer under
whose immediate command the same was employ
ed at the time of capture, destruction, loss, or
abandonment; declaring in what way the proper
ty was taken into the service of the United States,
the value thereof, whether or not the risk to which
it would be exposed was agreed to be incurred by
the owner, whether or not, as regarded horses,
mules, or oxen, he engaged to supply the same
with sufficient forage, in what nannerthe loss hap
pened, and whether or not it w_s sustained with
out any fault or negligence on his part.
The sixth section ofi the law enacts :
“That in all instances where any minor has been,
or shall be engaged in the military service of the
United States, and was, orshall be provided with
a horse »>r equipments, or with military accoutre
ments, by his parent or guardian, and has died or
shall die, without paying for said property, and the
same lias been, orshall be lost, captured, destroy
ed, or abandoned, in the manner before mentioned,
said parent or guardian, shall be allowed pay there
for, on making satisfactory proof as in other cases,
and the further proof that he is entitled thereto, by
having furnished the same.”
A parent or guardian of a deceased minor, will,
therefore, in addition to such testimony applicable
to his claim as is previously described, have to
furnish proof that lie provided the minor with the
property therein mentioned ; that the -moor died
without paying for such property ; and that he,
the parent or guardian is entitled to payment for
it, by liis having furnished the a me.
The seventh section of the law enacts :
•‘That i:i all instances where any person, other
than a minor, has been or shall be engaged in mil
itary service a for c said, and has been or shall be
provided with a horse or equipments, or military
accoutrements, by any person, the owner thereof,
who Ins risked, or shall take the risk of such
horse, equipments, or military accoutrements on
himself, and the same has been, or shall bp, lost
captured, or destroyed, or abandoned, in the
manner befpre mentioned, ‘ such owner shall be
allowed pay therefor on making satisfactory
proof, that he is entitled thereto, by having fur
nished the same, and having taken the risk 011
himself.”
Besides the testimony in support of his claim
hereinbefore required, every such owner, there
fore, will have to prove that he did provide the horse,
equipments • military accoutrement* there.n men
tioned, and took the risk thereof, on himself: and
that he is entitled to pay therefor, by having fur
nished the same. and taken the risk thereof, on
himself; and this proofshould be contained in de
position of the person who had been so provided
by him with such horse, equipments, or military
accoutrements.
In no case can tho production of tho evidence,
previously described, be despensed with, unless
the impracticability of producing it be clearly
proved, and then the nearest and best other evi
dence, of which the case maybe susceptible, must
be furnished in lieu thereof.
Every claim must be accompanied by a deposi
tion of the claimant, declaring that he has not re
ceived from any officer or agent of the United
States, any horse or horses, equipage, arms, ac
coutrements, mu'e, wargon, cart, boat slegli, or
harness, [as the rasa maybe,] in lieu of property
he lost nor any compensation forthe same, and be
supported, if practicable, by the original valuation
list, made by the appraisers of the property, a. the
time the same was taken into the United States
service.
All evidence, other than the certificates of offi
cers who at the time of giving them were in the
military service of the United States, must be
sworn to before some justice of the peace, or
otlier person duly authorized to administer oaths,
and of which authority, proof should accompany
tlie evidence.

the place of his residence ; but ll the money is to

To the editors of the Southern Recorder :
Gentlemen —A neighbor of mine has a mare
which has folded three colts at one time. One of
them is a fine looking colt, and promises to do
well. The other two were foakled dead, and very
much deformed. They grew together from the
mouth to their shoulders, and were all of a clay
bank color, like their sire, which is nothing more
•han a common woods colt'. This is undoubtedly
the most astonishing circumstance that has ever
come to my knowledge, and 1 conceive worthy of
public notice.

ANOTHER SNAKE STORY.
There has been for years, observed in the
neighborhood of Sandersville, the trail of a snake,
between 10 and 12 inches in breadth- Two or
three individuals have seen him at different times,
but they have always been too much frightened to
take any minute observation of him. He is said to
be a Rattle Snake, —mostofins body being cover
ed with moss, he must be in his appearance truly
teirific. lie was seen come five or six.years ago,
by a negro man belonging we believe to Mr. Good
rum Davis near this place, at his spring. The
boy, struck him. with a fence-rail, which his ma
jestv did not deign to notice, continuing his jour
ney a? quietly as though nothing had happened.
Poor Hannibal, to use his own expression, ’was no
longer for daf place.’ Nor could lie muster cour
age enough to relate what he had seen until the
ensuing day.— Southern Advocate.

DIED.
At the residence of Dr Joseph Reese; near tliis
place, the Rev. GEORGE A. CHAPPELL
Minister of the Methodist E. Church, in the 33d
year of his age.
Brother Chappell had been appointed by the
Conference to labor on this circuit. He had, for
several years, been in very bad health, and conse
quently came to his appointment with an eniacin
ted frame and broken constitution. A Minister of
less piety and zeal would have found a sufficient
apology in his decayed health, to have sought in
retirement that rest which nature so much requir
ed ; but his whole soul was in the work—the situ
ation o bis fellow man was paramount to every
other consideiation —to every other interest.—
Having been placed by the Great Head of the
Church, as a Watchman on the walls of Zion, and
being feelingly alive to the high and holy respon
sibility of lus station, he had a strong and ardent
desire, if it were the will of God, to die in the
field of labor, with the trumpet to liis mouth, and
the desire was granted him.
lie preached liis last sermon at this place on
Sabbath, the Bth hut. with his usual earnestness,
but stated to the congregation that he felt worse
than usual, and if he should not attend his next
appointment they might know he was confined to
his bed. On Monday he attended an appointment
but was unable to preach, lravyig had a violent at
tack ofdiarrli a. He reached Dr. Reese at night,
much weakened, and laid himself down upon bis
'"''dical aid was afforded, but
1
last Dea. A lie uc-ot ......
his constitution was too far spent to recover, auu
on Monday night last, 23d inst. he slept iu Jesus.
Qur loss is his infinite gain ; Death had lost its
sting, the grave its terrors, and. with a hope, full
of immortality, he antic’ , reward.
Ou the night p.-ccdfnjTius death, he culled his
wife to liis bedside, and while she knelt beside him
he took an affectionate farewell of her, and with a
perfect seif command, gave the necessary direc
tions for the bringing up of his httle son in the
» urture and admonition of the Lord. He called
for liis child and took it on his brea and with
his shriveled hand on its head, he put up such a
petition as none but a dying father could pray.—
“Let me die tlie death of the righteousi and let
my inst end be like his.” G.
