Just after we went to presa last week,
news reached this office of the perpe
tration of tho most stuperiduoiia crime
against property, that has ever occurred
r ' in the annals of Georgia’s criminal rec
i ord, perpetrnted within our own borders.
1 About 9 o’clock on Tuesday night,
July 27th, five masked men drove up to
1 the residence of Handy Wilkes, about 1C
miles north-eaat of this place, with a
mule and wagon. Forcing everyone on
tho premises, except old Handy Wilkes,
. into the house, after searching it, for
arms, as was supposed, they locked
them in. Theu one of the party took
uuclti Handy in tow, and marched him to
, the rear of the house,and made him stand
| with his hack to the honso, guarding
him with cocked gun.
In tho front yard stood a small house
used hy Handy Wilkes as a doctor shop,
i In that shop 6tood a money safe belong
ing to ('. A. Mosely, one of Montgom
ery county’s heaviest tax payers. In that
safe, securely locked, calmly reposed the
| hard earningsof a longlifo—six or seven
thousand dollars in money, besides tho
; title papers to all his lands, and a large
amettutof notos, accounts and other val
uables. Report sttys that Handy Wilkes
hud nbont tho same amount of money in
the safe, and that his sou had several
r thousand dollars in it—making fifteen
. or eighteen thousand dollars in cash that
tho sufe contained, if reports be trne.
The snfo whs quickly, though not hur
riedly, but upon the coutrary very de
liberately, lifted, by the four burglars,
into tho wagon. Then Handy Wilkes
was forced into the house, tho door re
loekod, tho inmates of the house warned
not to come out ’till next morning, and
the pnrtv drovo away with their rich
prize.
Next morning a party of the neigh
bors started in pursuit. The wagon wax
easily tracked, as it bad rained that
night and the gronud was soft. They
followed it without difficulty, as it kept
tho road, going in the direction of Long
Fond, which is seven tniiea south of Alt.
Vernon. At I,ong F oud it hit the
main road and took a settlement road,
for a half mile or so, theu wound its siutt
ons way through the woods hack to the
public road, ntid down that to the rest- !
donee of Tob Mozo, beyond which it
could not bo traced.
In Mozo’s lot was found a one-horse
wagon, hut uo trace of tho safe. Mozo
was arrested, hut feigned drunkenness,
throwing the officer oft’ his guard, and
made good his <<sonpo Thursday night.
A mule was found that was supposed to
be the one that pulled tho wagon. It
was iu the possession of N. Is. Gibbs.
Ho was nrrestod, and promptly gave
bond for his appearance ut the com
mitting trial,which was set for Mouday
Aug. 2nd.
Mr. Mosely has offered a reward of
a thousand dollars for the recovery of tho
safe and its contents, aud five hundred
for the arrest of Mozo and his delivery i
to the sheriff of Montgomery county. |
Theso facts added fuel to the excitement 1
which wuh already at fever heat, and j
little else has been spoken of by our ex
cited populace for now over a week.
Mr. Mosely, though a man of wealth,
is left iu a sorry plight, three dollars and
ninety cents being all the ready cash tho
burglars left him. His credit, however, |
is good, and he enn raise as much money
as ho wants, and tho reward of £SOO will
be paid promptly, upon Mozo’s arrest.
On Monday, when the ease vs Gibbs
came up for trial at Long Pond, defend
ant asked lor a coutiuuuuoe to a future
day, for luck of his counsel Col. B. B.
Cheney, who failed to put in an appear
ance. Tho state was represented by j
Carswell .v Sutton, and as soiuo of tire
witnesses for tho prosecution were gone 1
to Savauuah, and would not be back tin- j,
dor a week, the case was continued tiu- j.
til next Wednesday, the defendant being i
under good bond iu the meantime, i.

Mcßride,
In my rejoinder to W. H, Mcßride.
JI must say that I am surprised at my
friend Bonnie, both in the tenor and
composition of his piece. I am ptr
buuded to believe tliat had he not taken
the advice of Worldly Wiseman, aud on
the summit of an impulse at that, he
never would have consented to publish
such a piece over his signature. It
seems to me that no one bnt an adept in
! error would have pushed the pen, to ex
press such language against the cause of
the higher life which was purchased by
the blood of the Redeemer. One so
young as he, seemingly so gentle, so no
ble, so respectful, could never, in my
judgment, have transcended equal to one
“dyed in iniquity.” lam not alone in
this tydief, for not a few of his Christian
friends, both rnnle and female, ex
ptessed the same. Our hearts are sad
, dened, our souks made sick, for fear[t£iat,
. after all we may be mistaken in his
, possessing the God-given graces that we
| thought wo observed iu him. But since
. there is a ray of hope, I shall treat the
subject both from a human and Divine
standpoint. I did not kuow that he
i claimed to be a weak saint, orj[a strong
I one either, for I have no knowledge that
i he ever made a public profession of the
i same, therefore if he had read the Scrip
, lure carefully as he says ho did, he surely
• would have seen the lesson I desired
[ to inculcate was upon the strong iu faith
; to bear with ns, the weak, because we
i conscienciously looked upon it as a sin.
I But since he intimated that ho desired
to be cited to some scriptures, I will
do so, and think they will bo conclusive
1 to any seeker after truth. We find this
recorded in Gal. v. chapter, bogiuing
with the 19th verse: “Now the works
of the flesh arc manifest, which are. these:
ndultry, fornication, unclennness, las
civiousness, idolotry, witch-craft, hatred,
vurience, emulation, wrath, strife, sedi
tion, heresies, envyiugs, murders, drunk
enness, ravelling* and such like.” The
curnal, the human, cau’t see how these
things w ill keep any ono from seeing the
kingdom of God. Bet us look at the
word revelling. What does it mean?
Webster, iu his unabridged, defines it
as “feasting with noisy merriment.”
Now, will feasting (eating) with noisy
merriment, he more damning than uoi6y
merriment with music, which lead to
lasciviousness aud debauching? The 2nd
verso of the sumo chapter says: “But tire
fruit of the .Spirit is love, joy, peace, long
suffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,
meekness, tempertince;agninstßDch there
is no law.” Now if there-is no harm ’iu
dancing, is there any good in it? Is it
ouo of tbc fmitn of lilt* *
Again: I. Fetor, iv:3—6. “For the
time past of our life may suffice us to
have wrong in tho will of the gentiles,
when we walked in lasciviousness, lusts,
excess of wine, revellings, bauquetings
aud abominable idolatries; wherein they
think it strange that yo ruu not with
them to the same excess of riot, speak
ing evil of you; who shall give account
: to Him that is ready to judge the quick
and the dead. For this cause was the
gospel preached also to them that are
dead, that they might bo judged accord- i
ing to men in the flesh, but live accord
ing to God in the Spirit.” Again, 11, j
Cor. vi:l7. “Wherefore, come out from I
among them, and be ye separate, saith j
tho Lord, and touch uot the unclean :
thing; and I will receive you.”
Grand success! Perhaps so. Doubt- ]
loss Beltcshuzzur thought his feast was n
success, until the handwriting appeared
upon the wall. “Mene, inene, tekel uphar
* in;" the interpretation of which will be
fotiud iu Dan. v. “Aud uo ono seemed i
to bo surprised.” I kuow to the con-;
trary, for several have expressed them- j
selves to the contrary to me. I think'
: tliero must be a reform in regard to frolic-1
ing iu this place, for there has not been
any here in several mouths at auy oue’s I
house, and I have hoard several express '
themselves on this wise, and this is why ;
I wrote as I did. Yes, my dear friend,
kiud Providence has always, and is still,
: allowing me a “livelihood” but as to my ,
, early tracks ou the sand of time, I have ;
| many regrets aud much remorse; for no ,
j longer ago than on the *2Btu nit, ovor at j
j Bhiloh, I uiot two ladies who associated |
j their first recollection of me at a dancing I
party, aud I felt so ashamed that I beg- !
j ged them to try and remember me only ;
in connection with the S. S. Association, j
or my humbler life. Yes, I did roam i
from our Father’s house, whero there
was plenty and to spare, to teed upon
the husks which were ouly intended for j
the swiue. But all the gaity aud mirth -
of a froliciug life did uot, aDd could uot, !
fill the aching void for happiness. Bnt;
ou the contrary, each time I indulged led ;
me further aud further from God. which
only can satisfy tho soul. If I had con
tinued to follow this course, it might, :
ero now, have been said, “Ephraim is j
joined to his idols; let him alone.”
HoseaU iv:l7, “For there is a place, j
we know not where, for there is a time, |
we kuow uot when, that a man’s destiny
is scaled for one of the wide extremes, i -
Heaven cr hell.” Many indulge, few re-' i
turn and then lament their past life. 't
This is why I have warned you to “avoid I
the very appearance of evil.” so that t
yon. if permitted to live to repent ia as- <
ter life, can’t say it was “through igno- ! 1
r.it .c that v »•? ns'lc i .-.a the 1 nr-iw; 1 •
i coals of bell,” nor that your blood will
be required at my bauds. Ezekiel
xxxiii:B. Thee

“0 prodigal, don't rtay awayl
The Father is waiting to-day;
‘ j There is room and to spare,
i There is raiment to wear.
, O prodigal, don’t stay away!”
» In all caudor, my friend, we don’t see,
i (and this includes more than the writer)
t that your feelings are as refined, for
i Christians and religions exercises, as yon
. would have us believe, or you weuld Dot
f invite them to attend a dancing frolic in
7 the name of a picnic, you konwiDg their
> 1 feelings upon it, much less suffering
- work done on yonr platform just in
7 front of the church, while a man of God
> was in the sacred desk. As to remain
i ing neutral, I think we “ought to obey
i God, rather than men.” Acts v;29.
In conclusion I address the members
- ! of Christ’s church, of every name, of our
, common father of a common family, to
h consider yonr solomn oaths before God
) and many witnesses, that you would keep
» the rales of the church that you have
; identified yourselves with; and none that
3 I know of, but forbid dancing. 'Where,
> j then, do you stand when you break these
; obligations? Why the world has less
t j confidence in you than in itself. My
. brother, my sister, how do you know that
. I it will not soon be, or perhaps has boon
already, said, “Cut it down, why cum-
I bareth it the ground.” Luke vii:7.
, “For if the salt have lost its savor, where
. withal Shall it be salted: it is henceforth
| good for nothing but to be cast out and
I trodden under foot of men.” Matt, v:
1 13. May the good Lord add his bless
, ing? to all whom this letter may concern,
I j for Christ’s sake.

Hack Branch.
Ed. Monitor; —Having seen but little
from this place in your paper, I lmvetle
. I cided to give you a few dots, if you will
. allow mo space in yonr columns.
The weather is exceedingly warm at
this time, and somewhat dry, to what it
has been. Crops are considerably dam*
' aged by winds and rains, but I think
there will be morecorunnd cotttonmade
than the farmers at one time thought.
Hack Branch neighborhood seems to
be on a boom. We have two brick man
ufacturing companies about ready to be
gin to make brick.
We have a good Sabbath Scbool at
Hack Branch.
Prof. Fleming commenced a writing
, school nt the school house this morning.
Tho boys about Hack Branch speak of
hnving a picnic or a fish-fry at McAr
thnr’s Bluff, as soon as the river gets
low enough. Go ahead, boys; we like
to eat fish, and see the young people en
joy themselves.
I would like to hear from A. 0., from
Hack Branch and from across the creek
again. Pompy.
Masonry.
Ed. Monitor:—l closed my last with
the professor, nndfor the sake of variety
I propose to review a little.
• R)bt. Burns, says,
i "Straight from his homo,
You candidate comes,
Prepared all for the occasion.
Os all that can harm,
| Wo will him disarm,
That he may nowise harm,
A froo Mason,”
Such are facts, and to know, is practical
truth. As masonry is as old as man,
and originated in the mind of Adam,
descended pure through the nntedcln
viau ages, was afterwards taught by
. Ham, Enoch, Jonathan, David, Solomon.
! Zerubabel, and others, flowed down
through pollutions, bigotry, nnd euper
| stition, to our day.
The old book says the wise hearted,
were employed in tho construction of the
Tabernacle of Moses. A representation
of every well governed and truly organ
ised Lodge, tbe Temple at Jerusalem,
was perhaps the best model. At this
gate the apprentice knocks. Old history
, gives us many points, it says the festival
|by tho Greeks, nt PlaUea iu honor of
Jupiter Elenthei'ius; the assembly was
| ormed of delegates. This, I believe,
was tbe first assembly of delegates, they
were chosen, from tho wise hearted, j
T’lio old record, (iu my possession) says
masons “know tbe way of gaining an un
derstanding of Abrac .” The true mean
ing of this word I am at a loss to know;
j perhaps it may moan Abriurir, a name |
j given by tbe religions sect of Basilides, |
;to God. This sect flourished in the time
of Adrian, and Abrnc may mean Ahra-
Sim, or Abrgxas the s/ipren,f God. Tbe
value, or numerical distinction., of the
word Abraxas makes the number 365, as
all good Greek scholars know. The
word was engraven on precious stones
aud worn by tho Balsidea as a gem, the
virtues of which were considered a pro
tection of tho Deity.
There is a drawing in tbe British
musenm, of a gem deposited there; tbe
engraving is on a beryl stone, of the form
of an egg. The bead is in eoDes, the I
reverse in taglio. This is said to repre- >
sent the Creator, under the denomina
tion of Jupiter Ammon. And we have
the Osiris and Isis of the Egyptians, un
der tbe same figure; and these represent j •
hieroclyphicaliy, ommi-ot'-’- ,
in that drawing, seems to be U6ed only
as a point; yet it is an emblem of Pru
dence, and was represented as the third
emanation of the Basdidian divine per
son; the scorpion, malice and wicked
subtility; the serpent a heretic. Tbe
moral seems to be that heresy, the voice
of infidelity, and tbe devotees of satan,
were subdued by a knowledge of tbe true
God.
There may be some doubts as to the
true meaning of some of the above repre
sentations, as authors differ as to them.
Yet I hold these to be the most reason
able.
It is well known that ancient divines
compared the moon to the Christian
cburch. They compared JcsusChrist to
the sun, and the church to the moon as
receiving all its beauty and splender from
him.
The Basilidians, and the Grostic Hier
archy, suppose a multitude of Thacons
(deities.) Begining with Abrncas, they
proceeded to their Primogeneal mind,
thence to Logus, thence to Phronasis,
thence to Sophia and Dynamis. From
these last, meaning wisdom and strength,
proceeded Principalities, Powers and
ADgels, and from these other Angels,
amounting to 365, these were supposed
to govei nus m any celested orbs. (About
I the Primogenial mind and tbe Logus, I
may hereafter say a few words).
The Gnostics, were a sect of Chris
tians, possessing a very peculiar tenet of
faith, nnd the name was understood to
mean, new knowledge and extraordinary
light. This induces me to believe that
the Hierarchy of the primitive Christian
church, consisted of several orders of
men, Rulers, Believers aud Catechumens,
or apprentices. These were veiled be
fore they were admitted. After admis
sion it was customary to touch their ears,
saying, “be opened.”
I will, for the present, pass over the
antiquities of the Druids of Gaul, and
other soeietios of similar merit, having
said enough, I think, to convince the
most skeptical. Kind reader, you may
think the most of this is a degression
from my starting point, bnt not so.
Every emblematic principle (though
veiled in allegory,) is illustrated at the
initiation of each candidate.
It is a strange fact, that many persons
are entered, passed aud raised, in our
order, and live consistent so-called mem
bers, that never lenrnod the masonic se
cretofthe first degree in masonry. They
go swelling about among men, saying
“I am a mason,” while in truth they do
not know our secret, and nothing but
the apostacy of the age would tolerate
such. In this age, when every thing
serious is received with laughter, every
thing truly religious, istreuted with con
tempt, and pure morality spurned from
the doors of the polite, and where Truth,
Honor, and Integrity, are at a discount,
is it any wonder that we have such mn
e.ous? Echo fuils to answer.
Respectfully,
Resendie.
