We reiterate, that as a general rule, a

The Chicago Inter-Ocean says;
"Gen. Sherman is perhaps the one man
in the country permitted to say whatever
he pleases and speak his mind on all occa
sions without let or bindrunce, with public
approval aud amiable indulgence."
Every man in this country is allowed to
speak his mind freely upon all subjects and
on all occasions. Free speech is gun ran
teed by tbe constitution. Sherman is the
only man who, since war, has spent mneh
of his time in telling lies snd publish
ing them. He has been fortunato in
escaping nil punishment except exposure
and denunciation, but it is a slander to say
that tbe decent people of the country
either approve his conduct or lock upon it
with amiable indulgence. The only exenso
put forward for hint is that he was always
partially deranged and is frequently drunk.

Georgia Scenes, from the pin of the
great humorist, Judge Longstrect, contains
chapter devoted to the sayings land do

dubbed himself with the title of ‘The Ynl-
1. r Bin - .mi of Jasper.
Jsaperhas suddenly come into' promi
nence again— not in an humorous way, bet
rather seriously.
Our telegraphie columns contain u> ac
count of the' esse of Sylvester Rams, of
Jasper.
it appears that some months since Syl
vester was bitten by a rattlesnake. He ap
plied the usual remedy, the common bev
erage of the country, whisky, nod was re
lieved of oourae. But lately Sylvester lus
been overtaken with a great trembling, aud
a disposition to make queer sounds. Ue
has also trailed the wife of his bosom, and
committed assault and battery upin sun
dry boon companions. The result bus
been that Sylvester has been consigned by
tho officers of tbe law to the calaboose.
It is a very straight and simple story, bnt
tbe corres|>ondent from Jasper desires to
create tho impression that it is the snake
which has done til this, and that Sylvester
Sums is a cose for scieutifio study and in
vestigation. i
It is hardly probable that the Associated
I'resa has a correspondent af Jasper, and
the suspicion arises at once that the “spe
cial correspondent" who manufactures and
disseminates such remarkable dispatches
from Atlanta may have worked off some of
his stuff on the Associated
This corporation would do well to give
the "special correspondent" n very wide
berth, if it proposes to retain its reputation
for tho ilisseminstion of reliable news.
Sylvester Barn's esse may be reasonably
accounted for without a scientific or medical
discussion. The continued use of the
edy for snake bites will produce jerks and
tremblings, and likewise visions of snakes.
Tbs man so afflicted frequently beats his
wife snd children, ana bae been known to
nit bis intimgts friends. And these
little idiosyncrscies not onfrequently land
him in tha calaboose.
Before entering this case on the .locket
for discussion as to a new form of rallies,
we would prefer to know if this correspon
dent at Jasper is the same one who dis
covered the opinm joint in Atlanta, into
which the throe Chinaman took the good
little boy on the Rahbath.
