The Journal. J. D. HOYL, Editor. DAW SON, GEORGIA, Thursday Morning-, .July IS, ’7S. OUR VACATION. A Trip Tlirough Ihr Country— A Brilliant Wedding, etc., etc. Cabined, cribbed and e tiliued in our hot and dii gy sanctum all sum mer, ve were glad when the time for our 4t!i o( July vacation came.— From the fanners, wo had heard glowiDg accounts of the crops throughout, the country, and were anxious to go otlt nod see thorn for ourself Above all, we had been ad vised that an obi friend and former partner nnd chum was about to lead to the Ilymenial altar one of the fairest of all the bright and star-eyed daughters of the Sunny South. We bad loeu bidden to the marriage feast. On the mount g of Sa'urday, the 6th instant, we shook the dust of Dawson from our feet; at noon we diced with friend Boyd at Leary, an ! at sun-down stabled onr panting steed at the home of D.\ 11. S Jones in Laker county. tut ctiors. Our trip extended, trorn first to las', to within a few tni'es of the F.oiida line, tlitougli the counties of Calhoun, Baker and Decatur. We cun not -ay that the crops, in eve:y instance, emne up to our high-wranght expectations, though the U'-iversal testimony cf the farmers was to the e ffect thut tlicy ire as g'od as ever known. In every instance where the soil is of any account and the eult : - •va'i n has been good tno mops are luxuriant, but we saw some fields, •■.specially >.n the southern portion of out journey, that looked very oiscour g ig. cotton not moro tiian from hui to six inches high. This was tint case, however, only in a few in stances and arose I'ioin the ex'retre poverty of the soil and dtfieiont culti vatit n, or, perhaps it was fioni the kind of seed planted, as we heard tome id our companions on the way t ill it “Bumblebee cotton,” whatev er that may Lo. The best section of eountiy through which wo passed was on "ho Itcha wynutclir.wny ere k from Milford down to Couch’s mil 1 . Thoro are tf ousauJs of acres of uncleared pins lends iu that section, that would un der ordinarily f.vorahle circumstances produce a half hale of co ton to the aero, aud liev. Mr. Gurry a large planter with whom we spent a night, told us they could be bought for a dol lar an acre, on u credit] if desired,— The pseseut mops on those lands are iho best we have ever seen anywhoro. Dr. Jones expects to gather a hale ot cotton per aero on a fie’d of It* acres, Mr. Bodilord expects 75 halos from 160 actcs, and 2000 bushels of corn from 125 acres. Mr. Lark has 1000 acres iu cotton but we did not learn his expected yield. Thx country is perfectly healthy, and we know of no place cfluring gteator inducements for farmers, or those wising lo invest in lands. Wo give these item?, supposing they will l)o of interest to our ngri cuHurnl reader?. Wo spent tlueodays with Dr Jones. He was busily engaged preparing for the reception of his bride, and we whiled away a portion of tho time angling in tho creek near by. Though not f.u export fisherman we succe> ti ed in lar.dii g sevoial fino trout on the surrey hanks of the No'ohawey. 7HK wBODING. Ou Wednesday morning, in company with tho Dr. and a few other friend?, we left for the residence of Mrs. San born, ferty miles bsyond. We diced at the Sharon ITouse, in Bainbridge, and, our crowd having been consider ably augmented, at 5 o'clock r. 51 wo resumed our. journey. Arriving at our destination soon after dark, wo found the magnifficor.t- residence of M r s Stnhorn illuminated for tho oc casion. Without,on porches and pi* szziit a thousand bos plauts and fl)iv frr glittered in tho biihian'. lamp light, and around and over co'urnn*, balusters and walls, vinos and overgreens had been trained by lair ind tasteful hands to forms of beauty. Within, in the rpaciour. halls and drawing room-* was a display of floral decora tion and ornamentation that wehavo never a?en ?urpassed. Haro and beautiful box-plants and flowers were tastefully arrang' and in great pro fusion Ihro’igh the bulis and piriur*, a tuaJ'ioigo bell hung from tho cerl ing,—evergreens, fern?, vines and leaves were arranged over the wills •n designs rivaling the skill and sur passing the beauty of the painter. Th whole made op h fairy scene of beat:'}’ aud one! nntment that our pencil is unable to describe so ns to convey <in ad< qu.ate conception of it, At about 10 i.’e’ock, standing be neath a canopy of flowers arranged for the purpose, the Rev. J. M. | Marshall, in u vrry solemn nnd irn | pressivo manner, united Dr. Fltl'on Seieven Jones ami Miss Sadie S San born in Mi” holy bonds of w edlock.— At 12 o’clock supper was partak.n of by the assembled guests, and all, soon af'er, depaited for their respective homes. We called on the Doc'or and his In nutiful bride a their home, in Ba ker county, on our return, and hope they may continue trirough life ps happy as they seemed to be when we parted with them. Fr< m present indications there is no doubrthat Iho Hon. A. 11.

Jefferson Davis. Mobile, July 11— Jefferson Davis yes’eiday made an address at Missis sippi City, on the occasion of the pre sentation to him of ti golden badge and certificate of membership of the Assoc.ation of the Army of Tennes see. He paid the question of tho Staffs right of secession in 1861 was at least debatable, but the course pursued by the Federal Government after the war hud ceased vindicated the judge ment of those who held separation to be necessary for the safety and heirdom of the Southern States, ad iho unsuccessful attempt to separate left tli-.ge in power free to wo>k their will as it had been nr inifes'ed when they first obtained control'of the gov ernment. Events are too recent to require recapitulation, and the ruin they have developed inquires 110 oth er memorial than the material nnd moral wreck which the country pre sents. He reasserted his unshaken belief in tho light of secession, and the du ty of citizens to ba'tle in the cause of their states after secession. lie siid Albert Sidney Johnston was trie greatest soldier and ablest man, civil or military Confederate or Foiie ul, the war produced, and re viewing the operations about Vick hurg and Port Hudson he spoke in glowing tettrß of thur defenders, adding ; ‘ Dot no one suppose tint in thu9 vindicating our e>use and in paying duo tribute to our gallant dearl I arn seeking to disturb such peace as w'e have, or to avoid the log ic of events. You havo dono your duty in the past, and I would ask no n.oro than that you should fulfi 1 equally as well tho duties of :he p os ent and the future. The bravest are, as a rule, the gentles*, and they ar also tho truost to every obligation as sumed. You struck tor independance aud were unsuccessful. Yoi agtoed to return to the Unicu and abide by tho Constitution and laws made in conformity with it. Thus far and no father do I understand your p.ovincb to extend.” Duiing his remarks he spoke of the messity of wise laws and an honest administration of government an' concluded by saying: ‘Truth and justice and honor tiresided at the birth of oar Federal Union, and its mission can only be performed by their cocstaut attendance upon it.— For this there is not neoded a condi tion of human perfectibility, but only so much virtue as will control vice and teach the tneicenary and self seeking that power and distinction and honor will be awarded to patri otism , capacity and integiity. To you, self-sari ifioing, self-denying de fenders of imperishable tiuth and in alienable rights, I look for the per formance of whatever man can do for the welfare and happiness of his coun try.” Death feoji an Insect’s Sting The Wilmington (Del.) lie, uhlieai of Monday says: “Ou Fiiday, June 28, while Miss Eleanor E Wood, daugh ter of John and Rachel Wood, of No. 512 Orange street, was out in the yard for a fow momeuts, an insect of some kind lit on one of tier teuip'es and stung t.or. She hastily brushed the insect from her temple without ascertaining what it was, and return ing into tho house she thought noth ing more of it until some time after ward she felt a violent itching pain in the region of the wound, which was followed by ft swelling in the face. All remedies known w°re applied but fai’ed to give any relief, a physician was called in, and afterwards two oth er physicians wote called. All tho known remedies were applied, but without avail, and on F-iday after noon, between three and four o’clock, Mi-s Wood died, iho physicians are entiru'y at * h-ss to know what kiud of an insfet stung the lady. ’ A son of Senator Gordon is run uiug a ehc/p rancuc in W*. rth countj Hanging of Shaw the Wife Murderer. i Special Telegram to t lie lAiromg News, Milekpoev u.e, July 12—Shaw ar rived here yesterday and was ironed to the fi or of his cell last night and a strong guard placed over him and around the hoilding. His faithful spiritual advisers visited him after dark and prayed with him, lie slept hut little— ten minutes in al towards morning when a tolling hell started him from his slumbers.

At 12 o’clock m. hit ir ns were knocked off and he was led forth, placed in a carriage surrounded by a strong iti> rrd of foot ard mounted men. Three Catholic clergymen at tended him. Fa'hers Quinlan, Bazme nnd O'h tra He made a short speech from the carriage on his arrival at the gal'owj, which had te en erected mar tho rivr hank, a half mile from the citv. lie m-cerided the fatal tree calmly, and smiled pleasantly at a frieri i standing near. The religious services occupied twenty minutes, and then the black cap was drawn and he leaned against the gallows and pray ed aloud for many minutes. At 1;10 p. m. be bade the Sheriff good-bye, the word was given and Shaw shot rapidly through the trap. The body writhed feaifu'ly for six minutes and then all struggle ceased, and he was pronounced dead after thirty-seven r*irrites. His neck was not broken. Five thousand persons assembled, although the execution was conduct oil privately. Sys the E a!y County News: “On Sunday night last a young man nam ed Amos Holmes, who lor ■me time had been in the employment of Mr. L. A. Free, in the Sixth, took ahvn tnge of the absence of his employer anif family hv braking into the fami ly room and robbing it of thirty or forty dollars’ worth of Mr. F.’s cloth ing. Fortunately 'he theft was dis covered about daykght Monday morn ing. and patties soon started in differ ent directions in puisuit of the thief, who was thought to be Holmes, on ac count of his absence- Mr. John Free, the father (! f Mr. L A. Free, came to B! kelv, and vjiy soon got track of the thief, who was heading for How ard’s landinwith a.view to getting into Alabama. M'. Free followed on. reaching the river a few minutes too ia e to overhaul him on tlii* side, out a' fortunate enough to come up wi h him about three miles on tho Ala bama side of tho tiver. He at first broke for the woods hut the whistle of a bullet and an intimation from the pursuer that he had hotter, stop, t rought him to a halt. His first re quest of Mr Fee was to shoot him down, Rayi g h didn’t want to live any longer. Mr. F. was not in ho rr.oi to comply with his rrquest, and at once made hi.n hunt up the bundle of clothing, which ho had cast aside in 'he race, and started with him to the r ver Wnon the/ reached the river he renewed his pe'ition to Mr. Free to either shoot him or dtown Kim, but for God’s sake not to carry him hack in Georgia Influenced by the poor fel'ow’s appeals, and being uncertain as to his legal right to bring him hark into Georgia, Mr. F’roe cave him one of the hats he had stol en and hade him ‘go nnd-in no more,’ which tie premised faithfully to do, and Mr. F<ee is of the opiniou that he will keep that promise.” The Americus Repub 'lean recites a horrible and blood curdling outrage lately perpetrated in Lea county, as follows: “On Monday morning, the Bth inst„, Miss Ball Bryant, anoiplian girl about thirteen years old, living with Dr. W. R. Buker, in Loo coun ty was outraged and murdered by some fiend while that gentleman was on a visit to the city We learn that M rs. Btrkor was sick in bed and Ihe girl went to the spring bet ween eight and nine o’clock which was about half a mile distant from the house, for a bucket of wa'er. When in the act of stooping over the spring she was assailed by tho inhuman scoun drel who had been lurking behind a tree near by awaiting his vic’itn, sei zed f y the throat, and (it is supposed by Dr. Barker, who examined the child,) was brutally outraged and cho ked to deii'fi, then tlinist head down ward into the spring. After await ing the return of tho girl tor several hours, Mrs. Barker, suspected some thing wrong, got up and went to her father's Mr Fetor Lars more, a half mi e distant, uid gave the alarm. — lu.inediate’y search wa? made, and tho chi ! d was found head downward in the spring, which is very narrow an 1 .hreo or four feet deep. From the tracks in the sand it is certain that this piece of diabolism was com mitted by a negro; and we hoar that blood bounds have been put on his trail for the purpose ol bringing him to justice.” Thomasvilb Times: “It i* thesame old stmy—kerosene. On Thursday Phoebe Guyton, a worthy, reliable and industrious color' and woman, was em ployed in ironing at tho residenco of Prof. O D. Scott. Wishing to in crease the heat in the stove she pour ed some kerosene on the lowly burn ing fire. The flame ran upthe stream ing oil and exploded the can which was in her hand. She was immedi ately enveloped in flamos. Her screams attracted the attention of the neighbors who ran to her assistance. Her clothing was almost entirely con sumed. burning the body badly all over.
