THE COMMISSIONER'S UINDIC- Tl VEX ESS. Prejuilpes tlie Case. Declared the Pi isoner Should bo Commit ted Before a Witness was Examined. Cat oir the EiMiubutloa by AMarlng ihr UffMuUnt'a- Altuiarjr that up.iu Ihr Testimony of the Prosecutor he Would Commit the Accused. On Friday of last week unite a company of mounted mi ll entered our quiet village, armed with gnus aud pistols, hunting the United States Commissioner’s office to de liver James Guv, against whom Commis sioner Wade, upon the affidavit of one Hardwick, had issued a Warrant for a violation of the ku-klux laws. The Commissioner was very much rejoiced that he had succeeded in capturing the said Gav, exhibiting a spirit- of vindictive ness towards the prisoner, rather than a calm determination to administer the law j impartially, a characteristic that everyone I authorised to hold courts of inquiry i should possess, but which we regret to say since he has been abandoned by all res ' peetable citizens is a stranger to him. The defendant’s attorney asked for time to pro i cure witnesses to invalidate the prosecu tor's testimony, and prove that the de fendant took no part in whipping the mau —which was tlie foundation of the eh rge —but t tint he used every menus in his power to prevent it. The attorney was as sort'd that such evidence would do no good, as he was determined to take Hard* wick’s testimony, and would column he accused, when he well knew that the Cos rt to which he was commuting him for trial lmd not, nor would not take jurisdiction of the case, unless the United States At torney General is ns corrupt as he is, which is by no means impossible. But we think the highest evidence of his viudie j tiveuess was exhibited in the fraud and de cepiton he practiced upon Jim Murphy, who acted as Marshal in arresting Gay. Murphy is an ignorant man, without edu cation, can’t read a word or write his ! name. The Commissioner, so-called, told tlie poor, ignorant fellow that he was obliged to execute the warrant, or he never would have had anything to do with it. 15at clothed, as he thought, with United States authority, he had a perfect right to kill any mail that dare to speak to him. So, upon being asked bv a quiet, citizen if he had any hogs for sale, he immediately attempted to murder him. A warrant was sued out by Mr Demur, tlie tnnU thus wickedly assailed, for an assault with in tent to tnurd r, and he was arrested, and the i vit vigilant ( ommissioner soon issued his warrant against Devane for an attempt to rescue the prisoner from his own (Wade's) I United States Marshal. So, on Monday the said James Morphy and Gal Murphy, who was also c’ urged in the same war rant. warn taken before his Honor, Judge ; E. It Harden, who held the court of in I qitiry, and we learn (for we were not pres ent) that the contest between the contend ing lawyers waxed warmer and warmer un til the close of day —the prosecution be ing represented by Hunter. Turner and Bennett A Kingsberry, and the defend ant by ('apt. J. G. McCall. Wade and Sam Griffin assisting. After a night’s delibera tion uni consultation, the defendant’s counsel became satisfied that his client’s case was worse than lie at first thought it to lie. So on Tuesday morning Capt. Mc- Call, who, we frankly say, always perse veres in the interest of his clients, made propositions for a compromise, the prose cuting attorneys believing that by acced ing to the propositions the boot interests ! of society' would be subserved, and the agreement was made. The prosecutor consenting, the defendants paid the cost and went home with feelings, as we are in formed, not very devoted to the Com- \ wissioner, who had so grossly deceived them. We have as vet been unable to as- ; certain the terms of the compromise, bull have no doubt it was for the best.

Wurdlaw, of Madison, Fla., who is on a visit to his many friends in our town, has favored lis in our sanctum with frequent calls, and we confess that it j is always a pleasure to lay down our pen and look in his genial face and inter change ideas with him. It give us new life and animation, and rest to our wearied ] hand. He goes from berg to the Baptist Association in Lowndes county. He is a devoted member of the Baptist church, but not excessively egotistic or dogmatic in his opinions. He is a companionable fellow, and needs a companion, for it is not good (he thinks) to be alone. We hope some good lady will sympathize with him in his loneliness, and abundantly sup- i ply him with such smiles as will make i him truly happy. We can assure them ! that all their goodness w ill be appreciated and reciprocated by our friend. A beautiful lot of Columbus .leans, also Domes tic l'laiils.

Our only safety de pends upon the exercise of prudence and caution. This roost fatal of all diseases might lx> brought here and spread all over the country in a day. We hope the peo ple will guard against it and warn the col- j ored people nf the danger. Tike Uikulkr tike Truttk like Ciealrr the Cunt. If the advertisements of the Great i Eastrfti bo true it is the greatest curse that could visit our already embarrassed country in a tinaueiul point of view. They would not stop here if they did not expect to make it protitahla. Ilow much will the people have to pay them to make it protit able? They say they have forty cages of animals, some of which cost them $15,- 000. According to their own statement, their outfit cost more than a half million of dollars. Aud, further, their own state ment shows that they have in all a thous and men and women, including actors, ac tresses and laborers, which will cost at least $1,500 per day to lizard them, be sides their wages, which cannot be loss— according to their own statement—than SI,OOO per day. Besides this there is the expense of their hundreds of horses, the daily expense of one or two trains of cars, county and city licenses, making in the aggregate their expenses not less than $1,500 per day. Now, it u! ir ...Ivertise inents be true these expenses cannot be less than the sum above stated; aud f course they expect the people of Brooks county to pay that, and a greater amount, that they may realize a profit—a sum much greater than our entire comity tax, and the people are complaining that they can’t pay that on account of the scarcity of money. Taking these facts and figures, isn't it conclusive evidence that their advertise ments are false; that the big pictures and long-winded advertim incuts are deceptions and frauds to allure and swindle by false pretences, the people out of their money. But w have more conclusive evidence of this gt'i it fraud than any w have referred to. I; will be remembered that less than ; one year ago this same gigantic humbug had their same monster lulls posted tip, and their hand bills scattered all over the country, assuring the people that the I Great Eastern was coming, with its four acres of pavilion, its 40 cages of animals, hundreds of horses, and its thousand men and women, and its steam piano, that | could be heard .>vo miles. Who was it that believed them then that was liot dis appointed and swindled? Who will he- I lieve them now to be disappointed and swindled again? Very few. wc think. We would suggest to those who are fond of such exhibitions to consider their coun try’s interest for this one time and wait until the times are more favorable for such amusement, and when the expenses would not be so seriously felt. There will be other shows here this winter far superior to this, anil you will have other opportu nities, if act unwisely you will. It is your, duty to pay your merchants who have furnished you with supplies, your doctors who have saved your lives, your law yers who have guarded your legal inter ests, your preachers who have been labor ing to save your souls from sin, and above all in importance, pay Thu Indki'E.WEXT that warns you of coming evils, such as the Great Eastern, and the thieving, God forsaken Radical pestilences that infest the ! country, and when you have acted up to this standard of morals the preachers, and The Independent will rejoice at your de livery from sin aud Radicalism. On the day that the show is to bo in Qitttmun go to the Fair at Thomasville, aud you will see a show that will be en couraging and profitable to you, and your money expended w ill not be carried out of the country, but will still remain and cir culate in our midst. —— o— Whoa you want good goods :it low prices call 1 at ’ Kavtux’s New Youk Btoiii:. Evcryihing G.mr Down. Money seems to have gone out of ex istence, and everything gone down; the! prices offered the planter for hi t cotton j are contemptible, compured with the ac tual cost of production; but the blame is not to be attributed to our merchants, the cause is remote. Onr tin re!:. ; ■ ore offer ing liberal prices—far above toe cash prices—for cotton in payment of accounts, i If, in the payment of debts, the planter ' can get a fair price for cotton, lie lifts no right nor cause of complaint; for if fair prices will pay him out of debt and leave him a surplus he can hold the surplus. Notwithstanding all and singular the dis asters that befall the crops, John Tillman is offering to pay fair prices for cotton to all his customers who are indebted to him. And so anxious is he for money, for just a little he will sell the most fabulous quan tity of goods. Reader (don’t mention our j name, keep that a secret), we assure you , if you will slip in on John any time with-! in the next thirty days, and let him know you have money or cotton, you will get tie; best bargains you ever bought in y iuri life.

We enjoyed the pleasure of visiting the j family of Mr. Vt eldon, seme four miles north of Boston, in Thomas county, on Saturday and Sunday last. On Sunday we were provided with a comfortable con vi yn e, and interesting company, to i the Association. The Association was largely attended —quite a number f min isters in attendance. The sermons were j earnest and persuasive; the ministers were much animated and zealous in the good cause. The Primitive Baptists are a peo- j pie in whom, ns Christians, w e have the j highest confidence. We think as a class j they live as near up to the “golden rule”, as it is possible in this life. The citizens ; in the immediate neighborhood had made ! at pie provisions, and came with supplies | sufficient to feed the immense crowd of visitors and strangers. Mr. W’s family carried a large basket, filled with tlie most inviting food, out of which a number of ns feasted, and there was plenty left. W e returned to Mr, W’s after the services, and with that interesting and happy family spent tl>e night. Their kindness will be gratefully remembered by mi I'Uluir GSUery. The picture gallery of Messrs. Kitchell k Etsou is getting to be the place of resort of almost nil the citizens of Quitman. The truth is, such artists have never been here. With the highest skill of the art, all their work is executed. Their pictures are attracting the attention, and exciting the admiration of all who havo refined tates. Now is the time, as their stay will be short. Don’t let the opportunity pass; such artists cannot afford to wait in a little tow n for patronage. There is richer re wards for their merit elsewhere, and they will seek it. It is true you can live with out their work, but certainly it is one of the highest pleasures, when loved ones are gone, to have them ever present with you in miniature. Money thus expended is never regretted. None have seen their work that don’t pronounce it superior to any ever done in this country. We have had quite a number taken, but find our friends (who desire to retain our shadow after the substance is gone) more numerous than the pictures. However, its long as the negatives last, we will en deavor to supply all who are curious to see what sort of an animal the editor of The I niu.i'ENDENT is.
