CJr Jiirhrn jSrotml VOL. l.} THE CHICAGO F1 LIE Some of its Bizarre Incidents— The Episode of Cuclatl Wo men in the Flames—Terrible Times. A corrcspondevt of the New York World gives the following; The women and children on the south side generally had time to dress i before eseuping, but on the north side the fire ran such a race of death that thousands leaped from the doors ami I windows with nothing on but the situ : pleat night apparel. It was not an uncommon thing to see a woman in : her night dress rushing to the fire and i joining in the futile efforts at resist ance. At the burning of the Catholic Orphan Asylum ou Huron street a brave woman sptang upon the roof in > nothing but u night-gown, and poured water upon the file as nteu brought it 1 from the cistern. THE MORTAL PANG. The most horrible of all the horrible things I have heard of is the driving from their beds of several women en cienfe and their confinement in the streets. A woman in this condition was dragged from a burning bed on : Ohio street, north side, her arms, face | and breast covered with blisters. She was wrapped in a carpet and borne to the north branch on the banks of which she was delivered of stout male 1 child. As the wails of the child rose lon the familiar air the wails of the mother subsided to sighs and the sighs | ceased. As the poor woman attained an earthly successor in this material world she vanished to the laud of souls. This is by no means an isolated case, i A woman was taken from a shanty on VVater street and was delivered in a wagon, but both mother and child liv ed, and both escaped the lire. There were also thrre cases of premature births in the park. “HUNGER AND NAKEDNESS.” In several instances women rushed from burning buildings enveloped in an aureole of llame—their clothing on fire from neck to ankle. In some ca? 80s these were rolled on the ground and the fire smothered; they were wrapped iu blankets when blankets were accessible; but three or four more that I have heard of were saved only by being deprived of every vistigue ol their clothing by strong hands. Ol course some of them declared that they had rather die than to be exposed in the streets; but “life is more than raiment”—so the men thought. A GOOD BATCH. In Ontario street, near Clark, where the fire suddenly leaped across west ward through north division, a baby ten months old was thrown from a fourth story window* and caught in a blanket by men congregated below.— it started head downwards, like Sam Patch in his last leap, but gradually regaiued the perpendicular, and alight ed on its feet like an athlete. The in fant was somewhat worried for breath at first, and couldn’t scream worth a cent iu its new woolen cradle, but it gradually recovered equilibrium, and j in five minutes was serenely sucking ! its thumb. The fattier climbed down j by the tin water-pipe at the corner of j the building. FUGITIVES AT BAY. A hundred thousand people have no 1 houses, and the gatheiings of these in the North and South Division during i the progress of the fire and immediate- i ly subsequent, formed some of the ; moat grotesque pictures that the ho- j man imagination can conceive. THE BATTLE OF THE SANDS. The scene of the crouching hosts : along the sands, on the lake shore, be tween the water-works and the mouth 1 of the liver, was a sight never to be forgotten. Ten thousand men, women, aad children rushed from their homes to the shore with whatever snatch aud have, and here they hover- j ed when the Harries drew near, and j here they fought the fierce foe for thoir ' lives- it was as truly a battle as was j ever fonght ou any tented field. The women and children were left on the beach, while the men advanced j beyond the contiguous in a solid phal- i anx and did battle with the raging fire. j T»e contest was unequal, for the pres- i tigue and momentum of victory were j with the enemy, aud on that wild beast j came, with crimson jaws, crushing j block after block, and howling with | insatiate rage. At last the row of j buildings not five rods from the lake’s I edge was on fire, and the platoons of 1 volunteer firemen retreated through j FAIRBURN, GEORGIA, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 1871. them again, filling their pails, basins, hats, and even blankets with water, and again desperately advancing.— Women and children brought water in everything they could obtain. In vain! The buildings are wrapped in flames for half a mile close along the beach, and the ten thousand driven here for refuge have walked into the cold lake to save themselves. On every yard of the beach and wa ter fell flaming faggots in a deadly shower. In all diiections haTr was singed and the upper clothing set on fire. The fugitives backed into the water aud faced the fire at bay, and stood so near together that they could extinguish each other. “Put me out!” "Put me out!” was heard on all sides, and women who were unusually ex posed, or whose garments were excep tionally inflammable, were repeatedly dipped in the water by their neighbors. Boys and girls burrowed in the sand up to their necks, close to the water, anil laved their heads and faces con stautly. Babies were frequently dip ped, to their litter wonder and annoy ance. A few hundred of these prison ers improvised a raft and paddled ofl into the lake, where they were subse quently picked up by a vigilant tug. The rest were finally released. After the buildings had become a heap of ruins, aud after standing four boors in the water, they found anew refuge to the northward towards Lincoln Park; a gypsy-looking army, with their cloth ing well ventilated and charred, and faces blistered, and carrying with them the little nothings they hud saved. WAGON ON FIRE. A curious sight was the burning of wagon-loads of goods on the streets aftet they had been snatched from burning buildings. There was fire overhead everywhere; not only on flit: red low clouds that acnddejJ across ih liot roofs, but in the million faggots that fell everywhere, carrying a blaze every instant to some new quarter.— Many wagon-loads were kindled in this way behind astonished drivers, j compelling instant action, aud some | times quick desertion. One case of that sort was especially dramatic and ! startling. A woman who had to be deprived of her clothes to save her life was given refuge in a wagon-load of furniture that was moving out of Ivin izie street, she crouching snugly be tween two beds. They hud gone three blocks, fighting the turolitca as they fell, when, horrors! A feather bed caught fire from one of the insidious embers, and the wagon was in flumes. They were now, however, beyond the edge of advancing fire, and thu morti fied and heart-broken passenger was hurried into a house where she shared the hospitality of her sex. WHAT CIDER DID. One more building that remains, an oasis in a bleak and black Sahara, is a i small, white, wooden cottage ou Lin coln place. A policeman named Bel linger lived here. lie hauled up the sidewalks, raked up the leaves and burned them, hewed down the fence and carried it into the house, in pieces, and notified his neighbors that, live or j die, tie would stick to that house.— j The fire advanced and gave battle. It I flung torches into his porch, it hutted them through the windows, it began j and kept up a hot bombardment of flaming shot upon the roof. He met it at every point; with hands and boots, with water and blankets, and finally j as the last wave of fire enveloped the i building in a sirocco and whirled i through the crackling tree tops and | gyrated madly over the adjacent walls j and waved and whirled over the amok i ing roof, Bellinger cast a pail into his | cistern aud it was dry. The blankets were on tile. Then the Bellinger ge nius rose triumphant. He assaulted his cider batreis, and little by little, emptied their contents on the roof. It was the coup de guerre. It gave him victory, it is blankets were scorched, Ins hands blistered, his boots distorter ed, and his cider spilled, but his house was saved. And Bellinger Las gone to taking boarders. It is reported that Horace Greeley | has got into a muss witli a Texas editor. I It appears that iu an agriculture essay ! on tobacco, Mr. Greeley asserts that j fine cut will not ripen well unless the tin foil is stripped from the growing buds early in the spring, and that plug tobacco ought to be kuocked off the trees witli clubs instead of being pick ed by hand. This, the Texas editor said, was nonsense, and Greeley chal lenged him. Gov. Uullook's reasons for re signing. Executive Dep’t State of Georgia, ) Atlanta, October 23, 187 1. \ To my Political Friend* and the People of Georgia : 1 have this day received information, the truth of which I canuot doubt, that the political conspirators who seek the overthrow,not only of the reconstructed Government ‘of Georgia, but of the Uuited States, have secured the pledges of a sufficient number of the incoming members of tho lower JHouse of the General Assembly to vote, without previous investigation, for articles of impeachment against me, immediately after they have assembled auu organ iz'd, on Wednesday the lir-l day c November next; uud, that having adopted such articles in the House, a s u flit, ie lithium bo r of Republican Sena tors will bi> unseated to insure convic tion upon the articles presented. I also learn that tho Judge of the Supreme Court, who is personally and politically bitterly hostile to me, has informed his friends that this pro gramme has been perfected anil that he has been selected to preside over ti e Senate timing the trial, and that the Senator representing General Toombs’ District is to be elected President ol the Senate aud immediately announce himself as aud claim to be, Governor during the ponding impeachment, and thereat ter lor the balance of my unex pired term. Upon this state of facts 1 have decided to resign the office of Governor, to take effect before the meeting and quallification of the new members of tho new body, and thereby defeat this tie fat ions tcbeine of tbeae desperate political conspirators. By this course I shall protect my political friends in the Senate, from the expulsion that has been foreordained in order to secure my impeachment,and at the same time Buve the State from the disasters that would be sure to follow in the wake of success on the part of the unpardoned ami unrepent tant rebel leaders, who, though com paratively few in number, move the masses by the irresistible pressure ol sectional hate and social proscription. I have maintained my official position against the assaults of these people upou tlie cause of Equal Bights aud Republican Government, just as loifg as it is possible for me to be of service, a :d now, fur the purpose ot again de feating this latest onslaught of these destroyers I liavo resigned this office m the hands of that noble and unsweiv ing friend v >! Bight anil Justice, the lion Benjamin Conley, who, under the Constitution, by reason of being sow tl.o President ol the Senate, becomes Governor during the unexpired part of my term, or until a successor is ap pointed by the people. No charge has as yet been brought against him, be cause he has not heretofore been sup posed to be an obstacle iu the way ot the conspirators’ success. It assaults are now made upon him, the country will understand the purpose for which they are made. As for myself, being divested of official position, the charges of every character which these people are sure to make and proclaim against me can he brought before the Court, and i shall netei hlii ink from any judicial enquiry that is divested of political bias and prejudice. May 1 be pardoned for a word ot warning to the men why fought for the Union 1 Six months ago, in in Georgia, the mass of the people were acquiescent in the results of the war and were willing to accept those re sults of the war and weie willing to accept those results as being finalities. But under the latter public teaching ol certain old leaders, who need not be i named,the whole situation lias changed, and leading gentlemen, even in Hie j Democratic par y, wliodaied to speak in favor of acquiescence and peace, have been assailed and denounced,and the people so intimidated that they dare not h How the,advice. These -ouMpiralors fear übbve all else the re-election of General Grant. The insidious efforts to mislead him as to the true situation iu the .South hav ing utterly failed, they uow fear that same persistent and irresistible main tainance of light under the aduiiiris tiation which so brilliantly marked General Grant’s military advances in the overthrow ot the rebellion. 1 am uow fully persuaded and satis fied that these merr purpose to control the government and reverse the politi cal results of the past two years, by peaceful means it they can, or by foul means if they dare. Failing in this another attempt at reparation will be made. If evidence of this were wanting, we need but point to the public and private utterance of those who were tore most in secession and rebellion and denounce and ignore the fundamental law—the Constitution of the United States. Will the country heed and take care before it is too late to pre vent another war witli its frightful consequences ? If my action in this emergency lias been postponed until after the meeting ol the incoming body of legislators, the Executive branch of onr State government would have been absorbed by the conspirators in the Legislative branch, and there would have been no check upon the wholesale repeal and distinction of all the great measures of reform and prog {NO. 29. rcss that we have labored so bard to establish. I'he free School system would Lie abolished, the colored citizen denied fvei.y right guaranteed to hint, and the whole wink el Internal Improvement carried on by Northern capital would be swept away. The growing spirit nl lawlessness and proscription for opinions sake is daily rendering the property and lives of Union men and Republicans, more and more unsafe, and I fear tbe worst consequences if die Executive office should be filled by one not only iu symp .thy with those who urge on and inflame this feeling, hut who is moved and actuated by •hem. With no one in the Executive office to call upon the general Govern' meat for protection, its friends and supporters would be banded over, without mercy, to the assaults of their enemies. For these reasons I have determined on tin's step believing that much that has already been accomplished can be preserved through the wise und firm check upon revolutionary measu res that will bo given by Governor Conley in control of the Executive branch of the Government, and that thereby the good of the whole pe pie of Georgia will be promoted, and I shall cheerfully give to Gov. Conley all the information and assistance within my power that lie tnay desire. Rufus B. Bullock Tlie Result of the Election iu Pennsylvania. We give below an extract from an editorial of the Jeffersonian, of the 14tli instant, published in Westchester, Pennsylvania, from which onr readers will see the views entertained of the late election there, by this able paper, and the chief cause of the result, as sot forth in it—some wise counsel, also, as to the future, will be found in the extract, which is as follows: The result of last Tuesday’s elec tion cannot be considered a Democrat ic defeat. The Republicans, to be sure, carried the State, but not against the Democrats. The Resolution of the Hamburg Convention, which a lew corrupt Democratic politicians, at the instance of Republicans, succeeded in having passnd by the votes of Seventy six men, sealed the fute of McCandless and Cooper, and left to the true and honest Democrats of the State a choice only between two evils. The defeat of the State ticket cannot and will not be considered a cause for regret by a single Demcrat in the State. The loss upon the county ticket, by which die Radicals obtain control of the Senate, and increase trieir majority in the House, is the only tiling that will cause grief. This, to le cure, was to he exspected,because the party was so thoroughly disgusted and dishear' toned that it was impossible to bring them out to the polls, notwithstanding they knew that the next Legislature would apportion the State into Con gressional Districts for the next ten years, 'flic result, Instead of being discouraging, is decidedly ei.csuiag ing, for it demonstrates clearly and plainly that the good old Democratic party is as firmly as ever attached to die teachings of Thomas Jefferson and our Democratic institutions. It shows that the Democracy of l’eiui. cannot he sold out by a few dishonest and truckling politicians to the ene- mies of free government, and that hereafter as heretofore they will fight upon principle, or not at all. Away with expediency and its advocaes.— Another good result, which must neces sarily flow from the defeat of the New Departurists in this Slate and Ohio, will he the unanimity of sentiment in the next general convention. No such odious and anti Democratic doctrines as tliis negro departure movement will ever hereafter be heard of. Another benefit to be derived will be the retirement of our political leaders who brought this disgrace and seem ing defeat upon the party. For some time past our leaders have been an in cubus upon tbe party; they could not command the confidence of Democrats nor the respect of Republicans; they staked their all upon this New depart ure.niuvernentß; have ignominicusly and tngloriuusly failed, and must now retire to the rear ranks and let more honest and more honorable and compe tent leaders take tiieir places. Unless this is done; unless we have new leaders belore the next campaign; Grant will be the next President. We must have a thorough and com plete reorganization of the Democratic party of Ibis State if wo wislt success. For years past the party has been led by fourth rate politicians,and it is now time for our best men to come forward aud direct our movements. Upon Dem c atic principles, led by true and honest Democratic leaders, we can carry this State by at least 80,000 majority. We could havedotte it this year bad we have had a Democrat ic platform to stand and wotk upon. R ITES OF .» DVERTISIY « .
