Oct ok Dkbt. —lion. J. John Beck,
Ordinary, informs us that Calhoun co.
is out debt.
As we go to press, says the Cutk
bert Appeal of Friday, we learn that
Solicitor General Parker, of the Pa
tau la Circuit, was piesentod by the
Grand J ury of C lay county, on Thurs
day, for mal-practieo in office, duly
prosecutod and suspended until after
tho adjournment of tho next legisla
ture.
B, & A. R. R.—Mr. James A.
Barns has been appointed Buporin
tondont, with headquarters at Bruns
wick. Col. Hulbert is still General
Superintendent of tho road, but will
devote much of his time to the organ
ization of tho Albany & Columbus and
Columbus & Romo Railroads, of both
of which ho is President.
Calhonii Count f.
We were pleased to learn from
some of tho prominent citizens of Cal
houn county, while on a visit to Mor
gon, that the stands of corn wore good,
and that more had boon planted than
usual, and that there -was a determi
nation on the part of the planters tc
have their smokehouses a little ncaror
home. This is a step in tho right di
fret tion, and if our loaders of Calhoun
and every other county want evidence
to convince them of the truth of this
assertion, let them come to Dawson,
and see men who have boon farmers
all their lives begging tho merchants
to sell them, at any price , bacon and
corn on time. Wo are glad to know
that Calhoun is taking the lead in this
particular, and our prediction is that
she will be the most prosperous coun
ty in South-West Georgia, if she gets
her consent to go one step farther, and
that is to wear out all their old clothes,
unless they have the money to pay
for now ones; ». keep out of debt.
Any Price.
As the soason for planting corn will
soon be over, and fearing that our far
mors will reason like some farmers of
other sections, for the benefit of that
class of our reader", we publish a sen
sible article over tho signature of “any
price,” and request that every farmer
w r ho6o smoke houses and corn cribs
have hertefore been in Tennesseo and
Kentucky read it.
The total exports for the expired por
tion of the cotton year aro 2,287,686
against 1,541,409 for the eamo last
year. The stocks at all the ports is
579,732, against 432,296, for the
same time last year. Tho stock in
Liverpool is 750,000, against 452,000
last year. Tho amonunt of American
cotton afloat for Great Britain is 365,-
000 against 227,000 last year. The
amount of Indian cotton afloat for Eu
rope is 1G9,000 against 101,340 last
year.
Large crops have also been made in
China, Egypt and Brazil, and that the
eupplyexceods the demand is evidenced
by the fact that the figures for this sta
ple con*inue to rule lower. The re
ports from the Western grain crops are
not at all favorable, and the probabil
ity is that while cotton continues to de
cline, there is no possible hope for a
marked decline in the provision mar
ket. Docs not distress and utter bank
ruptcy stare us in the face, if the pro
gramme is not changed. We think
we can produce facts to bear us out
in the assertion. Then, let the news
echo and re-echo that hog and homi
ny is tho motto of the farmers in
tSouth-wost Ga.
Catalrt vor Carolina. —From tho
number of Federal soldiers who have
recently been ordered into South Car
olina, one world imagine that tho peo
ple of that State had again hoisted the
palmetto flag and determined to give
Uncle Sam’s government another bout.
Ever since the people of York and
Chester began to protect themselves
and administered salutary punishment
to a fotr miscreants whom the law
would not punish, the movement of
troops into the State has been almost
incessant. Infantry having been pro
nounced unavailable in campaigns a
gainst the so-called Ku-Klux, all tho
cavalry at the disposal of the govern
ment has been sent across the Savan
nah. On last Sunday morning an ex
tra train on the Georgia railroad
brought down from Atlanta two hun
dred and fifty cavalry men and eigh
teen car loads of horses. They left the
same day for Columbia, which is the
point of distribution. On yesterday af
ternoon another special train left At
lanta, bringing an additional force of
one hundred cavalry soldiers and eight
tars loaded with horses. Tho train
will reaeh here at five o’clock this
morning, and the forces will leave as
Boon as possible for South Carolina.—

Learning that Attorney General
Farrow had returned to tho city from
Oglcthoqie, Macon county, where ho
bus been spending some time recently,
conducting the investigation as to the
assasination of Hon. George W. Fish,
Judge of the Thirteenth Senatorial
District Court, we took upon ourselves
yesterday, the trouble to a*ceitiin di
rectly from him such facts as the pub
lic are permitted to know.
A fbw days after tho assasination,
the Governor sent the Attorney-Gen
eral to Oglethorpe, with instructions
to use every possiblo exertion, and in
cur all necos6ary exiiensos to detect
and punish the assassins. Tho Attor
ney-General carriod with him two do
tectives, Mr. Ed. Murphy and Capt.
Rarbury. Upon arriving there, he
fouud several prisoners in jail, and
turned thorn all at liberty except ouo
—a negro. Ho remained several days,
and returned home, leaving the detec
tives thore with full knowlodgo of his
theory of the case.
About ten days afterwards, John R.
Holsenback, a Radical bailiff of that
Militia District, was arrested and a day
fixed for a court of inquiry. Tho At
torney-General, in tho meanwhile, re
turns to Oglethorpe and appoars at the
Court of inquiry, determined to arrest
old man Lloyd, the father of Thomas
1\ Lloyd, Solicitor-General of that Ju
dicial circuit, but didn’t wish to arrest
him until night During the day the
jail was cleaned out and placed in a
more decent and comfortable condition
Among other things which wore done
for the comfort and cleanliness of the
prisoners, a dry goods box was placod'
in tho room as a dressing table, and a
glass, comb, etc , provided and placed
on it. Also, another box of like kind,
upon which was placod tho wator buck
et and wash pan.
About two o’clock that night, old
man Lloyd, who was the npplicant for
the Judgeship, to which Fish had re
cently boon appointed, was arrebted
and brought to tho Court-house, and
(lie prisoner, Holsenback, was brought
from jail to tho Court-homo. While
Holsenback was at the Court-house,
tho dotectives wero secreted in the two
boxes in tho prison. After some dis
cussion (1) it was concluded not to en
ter into the investigation until morn
in<r, and Holsenback was returned to
his bod in jail, and Mr. Lloyd with
him. They suspected that detectives
were about the jail, but had no suspi
cion they were in the room with thorn.
They talked in a low tone, 60 that they
could not have been heard by any
one, even at the innner door. But
one of tho detectives were within four
feet of them, and the other within ten
feet of them, and both the detectives
heard all that was said between them.
Tha conversation continued for three
hears, and tho detectives, after hearing
all that was said, disclosed their pres
ence—boing unable to continue long
er in their cramped condition in the
boxes. Tho conversation overheard
by the detectives, discloses every ma
terial fact connected with tho assassi
nation.
Holsenback and Lloyd are equally
guilty, and under the direct evidence
thus obtained, and other evidences in
possession of the Attorney-General,
cannot escape conviction. The Attor
ney-General assuros us he will bo able
tojconvict both of them. Holsenback
waived further investigation before the
court of inquiry, nnd went to jail to
await his trial in May. Lloyd had no
counsel, aa he had just been arrested,
and the court adjourned to Tuosday
next, when he w ill have a hearing be
fore a court of inquiry.— Atlanta Con

Origin of Hie Ku-Klux.
The Courier-Journal affirms that
the Ku-Klux Klan, as it was original
ly constituted, has beon disolvod and
is no longer in existence. What now
goes under the name is simply gangs
of thieves and marauders, without or
ganization, without any relation bo
tween tho dilforent bands, and with
out any other purpose than plunder.
Tho Courier-Jorunal gives the fol’wing
account of original Ku-Klux:
“Tho Ku-Klux Klan was peculiarl
of Southern origin, and was intended
to counteract the ‘Grand army of the
Republic’ and tho ,Loyal League,’ and
for the hotter protection of the fami
lies of Southern men from the depre
dations of robbers turned loose on so
ciety after the war. Their object was
to protect, notjto depredate; to built up,
not to destroy. As evidence of their
motives —peace and good order—the
oath which each member took upon
himself was a pledge to ‘support the
Constitution as given us by our fore
fathers, and to protect tho woak a-
gainst the strong.’
“This shows that it was only the
disturbers of thepublic peace, the land
pirates who follow closo upon the heels
of such disorganization of society as
ensues alter long war, who had any
cause to fear the terrible bugboar of
Ku-Kluxisui.
“Its name was suggested by the
noise which tho old army muskets
make when springing the lock and
discharging the peice. Ku-Klux-
Klang —the first two syllables made by
the lock, the last was the hang or
clang, of the discharge, the final ‘g’
being afterwards dropped for the sake
of euphony.
“Their signs aad grips were few
and simple. A member was recog
nized by returning twice a gentle pres
sure of tho hand, or when hand-shak
ing was not practicable, passing the
fingers of right hand gsntly through
the hair, in response to a like motion
from the inquirer.
“The Klan was organized as before
stated, in a sentiment of peace and
good will to all, and malice toward
none. It was established by the very
best men in the country, tho leaders
of the Confederate armies, and extend
ed from tire Potomac to the Rio Gran
de It was composed of men who
loved poace for its own sake ;it was
a perfect knight errantry of the South
ern States ; as harmless and intended
to be far more useful and subservient
of good morals than tho Loyal League
and the Graud Army.

Editor Eufaula News:
I have just received the New A,irk
Cotton Circular, of date tho 17th in
stant, and find the following facts sta
ted thorein. The total receipts at all
the ports since Ist September last to
this date, amounted to 3,153,517 bales,
showing an increase of 859,644 bales
over last yoar—and considerable more
than the total receipts at ,all tho ports
for the year 1869-70 (from Boptombor,
1869, to September, 1870.) It also
states that large crops havo been made
in India, China, Egypt, and Brazil, and
the result will be that the supply for
tho next twelve months will largely ex
ceed the demand, and “with another
planting like tho last, wo must bo wil
ling to accept lower prices.” This cir
cular is not published iu tho interest
of speculators or any class of busiuoss
mou, but is published by tho “ Com
mercial and Financial Chronicle ” which is
highly esteemed by all business men
in tliis country and Europe, and no
one doubts the correctness el its inten
tions and statements It is believed by
many cotton iu»n, and porsons of large
experience, that tho present low prices
(which are said to bo ruinous) will not
deter the planters from plowing in all
the cotton they can. and that a large
orop w'ill be made this year, and those
opinions have influenced tho specula
tors to sell cotracts for the delivery of
low middling cotton in Now York in
August and September next at 13J to
14 cents per pound, and December and
Jan’ry contracts at probably lowor fig
ures—winch is equal to about 14 cents
per pound for low middling on the plan
tation lam informed! that a large
majority of planters, ovorwhere, think
that prosont prices will influence small
planting of cotton and large planting
corn, and, acting on this idea, they will
materially increase the area of cotton
planting this yoar over last year —will
saise a largo crop, and get high prices.
I have received a letter from an old
friend residing in Mississippi in which
he states that he and his special friends
intend to “steal a march’ on the plan
ters this year by planting about twice
as much as last year, and expects to
make a small fortune by his operation.
I noed not state that he is influenced to
this course by opinions that there will
be a small crop planted, and that prices
must rule higher next winter.
A prominent and well informed citi
izeu of Georgia stated to mo to-day
that planters in his section would plant
more than last yoar, and that they
have bought largely of fertilizers.
Now, should a majority of planters
plant more than last yoar upon the
idoa that their neighbors will plant
le3s, tho result will be a crop exceed
ing four million bales, and round crops
of cotton may soli in Eufaula at five to
six per pound. Should this even hap
hon, what willl be the consequences ?
Tho very thought makos me shudder,
and I will close this communication.

A Doatoil Editor Proclaims til®
Truth.
The Boston Courier, which noithor
in war nor peace has bowed the knee
to the oppressor, thus speaks of the
South :
“ Recount ruction of tho South. —The
late Governor Andrew said, iu effect,
that any reorganization of the South
which was not brought about by the
co-operation of tho men of ability, and
the natural leaders of Southern opin
ion, would prove a delusion. Recon
struction has beon couducfod upon the
ideas of the most malignant enemies
of the South in Congress. Southern
people of intelligence and character
have been entirely ignored, and the
Southern States have been put into
the hands of white adventurers from
the North, called carpet-baggers and
scalawags. The result is that the
South has become a running sore, a
social gangrene, and the genuine
Southern poople have been hopelessly
alienated from tho Federal govern
ment. Tins government has neither
tho power nor tho right to rule millions
of men permanently by the applica
tion of force. It is not a government
of authority, but of consent. The
forefathers of the wliito men of the
South, who have been handed over by
a usurping Congress to tho rule of Af
rican barbarians and white vagabonds,
helped form the Federal government,
some of them taking a leading part in
its establishment The presence in
Congress of a lot of ill-balanced sec
tionalism and apostles of hatred, like
the late Thad. Stevens and others still
prominent in Loth branches of that
body, has finally resulted in transform
ing a part of this country into an Ire
land or Poland. What business have
men like Ben Butlor and others of like
antecedents, whose very names instant
ly excite bad blood, to be taking a
leading part in the attempt to heal the
wounds of civil war ? Congress should
long ago have boon purged of all men
whoso names had been too prominent
ly associated with the original cause
of difference between the North and
the South. Tho Southern disunionists
and fire-eaters were di*poaod of by the
war. Our Northern sectionalists and
disunionists should have bad decency
enough to have taken themselves out
of the way, if evon ill-advised constit
uencies wore willing to keep them in
Congress. Tho men who helped to
bring on the war are, of course, the
worst possible agents of reconstruc
tion, and the restoration of harmony
and fraternal feeling. The white peo
ple of the South ‘still live,’ and may I
be counted by millions. They cannot
qe permanently harmonized and paci
fied by carpet-baggers or Federal bay
onets.”

tional convention of Radical party will
