THE WEEKLY 1 ELEGRAPH AND MESSENGER, FRIDAY, APRIL 18, 1884 P BIBB IN THE WAR. -A'Ofief Record of the Military Companies In the Confederate service From this County. LIBB COUNTY CAVALRY. As early as 1833 a military corps was or ganized in Macon under the name ot Bibb County Cavalry. In 1836 the hostile In dians were committing depredations n Alabama and along the Chattahoochee river, until about the last of April that part of the State was in an alarming con dition, and an open war was made against the whites. Governor Clay, of Alabama, and 8chley, of Georgia, called out the mi litia of their respective States. The Geor gia companies, forty-four in all, number ing 1200 men, quickly rendezvoused at Columbus, including the Bibb County Cav alry, Capt. Eleazar McCall, which left Macon for action on the 27th of May. Governor Schley passed through Macon on the 29th of May, en rout!e to Columbus, accompanied by Generals Winfield Scott and M. S. Jcsup. After disposing of the troops at Columbus, General Jesup select ed the Bibb and Talbot county cavalry as an escort for a reconnoissance of the In dian camps between that place and Tuske. Ala. They passed within three miles of ^t*ah Micco’s camp, which contained 700 Indian warriors, and came upon a large body of them. The two companies were tormed for action, fired and killed a number of the liostiles. After riding six ty miles they reachedTuskegeethat night, and the next day proceeded within twen ty miles of Montgomery, Ala. Upon their return, the following order was issued, which is copied from tne original manu script in the possession of the family of the late Capt. McCall: "HEADQUARTER!* WESTERS DIVISION the Army or tiie South, Tlskkc.ee, June 5th. ! 836.—Order No. 2.—Major- General Jesup returns thanks to Copt. McCall and Cant. Bush, uml the officers and soldiers ot their commands for their good conduct and soldierly deportment on their march from Columbus to this place; and particularly for the promptness with which they formed for action, and the firmness they evinced when the enemy were reported to l>e in their front. The gallant Waring on that occasion is suffi cient evidence of their determination to do their duty; and that should occasion oiler they will do honor to themselves and their country. M. 8. Jesup." The company acted as a guard to the Governor to Fort Mitchell, and joined the expedition to Roanoke and found that place had been reduced to ashes by the Indians. On the 27th of June they reach ed Concord,twenty-five miles from Cuthbert and near the place where thirteen per sons, including women and children, had been massacred and a large number bad ly wounded. On the 29th tlvey reached Cbickasawhatchie swamp, where the In dians were secreted. The cavalry dis mounted, formed into infantry and went into the swamp. The Indians fired upon them, killing one and wounding seven. A charge was made, when the hdians tied leaving everything in their camp upon a hammock except their women and child ren. Fifteen bodies of their dead were left in their flight. On the 12th the hostiles were again found in the swamp and again defeated. The war was soon afterwards by the surrender of the Indian; Alabama. On the breaking out of the late war a Bibb county cavalry corps was organized under Captain Lockett and served six months in the vicinity of Savannah, where it disbanded. On May 2.1862. a new corps, the Bibb County Cavalry, was organized for the war in Confederate service by the election of Samuel S. Dunlap captain with 100 men. rank and file. He hau served six months with the cavalry at Savannah. The new W. A. Walker*, died since the war; J. N. Walker. I). K. Walk er*. died since the war; F. J. Wells, H. L.

Commissioner Bacon, who has just re turned from Atlanta, states that the gen tleman who 1ms been selected by that city to manage the Atlanta exhibit at the New Orleans Exposition Is making arrange, ments to erect a building o be devoted exclusively to the display of articles from Atlanta, and which are to be known &9 the Atlanta exhibit. Under the general plan, the State of Georgia is to nave a large space in the building devot ed to the several States, am! it is under stood that everything from the State is to be placed there so as to show the immense variety of its products. It is to be regretted if this plan and un derstanding nre not to be carried out. If Atlanta concludes to put up a tent and run an independent show, other towns may feel that they are not particularly called on to sustain the honor of the State, and may conclude to let the State look out for itself. The State has honored Atlanta by mak ing her its capital. It lias conferred on her whatever glory and profit it could. If the plan of her commissioner is carried out it will be said that Atlanta, when she could contribute something to the irlory of the State, selfishly refused. Atlanta may take pride in her separate exhibit, but certainly no Georgian outside of that city who feels a priue in bis State —and what Georgian does not ?—will man ifest anv enthusiasm with regard to it. The aim of all the towns and all the coun ties should be to push the State to the front and give it ns prominent a place as possible. What benefits Georgia benefits the towns and people of Georgia. It is some satisfaction to know that the separ ate exhibit scheme does not meet with the approval of a very large j»ortion of the At lanta |*eople. It is rather remarkable that the movement to give Georgia a proud place at the ex|>ositiou should receive the cold shoulder from the State capital. mond.

Atlanta Journal. The decision of Judge Hammond in re ference to what constitutes legal advertise ments is one of great inijK>rtance to our citizens, and should bedistinetly remem bered. Yesterday, in the Mills cose, as in several other case's within a few years past , the court decided that sheriffs and city marshal’s and other olficial advertise ments published in the Sunday issues of the newspapers are not legal, offered as evidence. To make such notices legal they must be published a certain number of times, at certain intervals, >n secular days only. Let our readers remember this important fact in their business and court affairs. > Good Suggestions. Richmond Dispatch. The New York Graphic makes the fol lowing suggestions to tne Democratic Na tional convention: 1. The adoption of a platform before go ing into the nomination of candidates for President and Vice-President. 2. Tiiat there be no changing of votes during a ballot. 3. That at least one night shall intervene between the selection of the first and sec ond candidates on the ticket. These all strike us os good suggestions. The trick of packing the galleries with vis itors who will applaud the delegates that change their votes during the progress of a ballot will thus be forefended. If the last had been a rule of the Cincinnati con vention of 1880, Mr. English would hardly have received the nomination for Vice- President. Price of Cotton. Philadelphia Press. The cotton supply is rapidly reaching a point whero a rapid advance in the raw material appears not improbable, the only obstacle lying in the reduced profit on the manufactured article, which has grentlv diminished, and may continue to diminish the pressure of demand. The supply to April 4 has been 1,003,254 bales (a seventh) less than last year, and the visible supply is .165,399 less than last year; while a month ago, although the total receipts were as small In proportion as now, the visible supply was and for months * had been abont on a level with n year ago. In other words, while a decrease in supply for six months had not changed the current amount of cotton on hand, in the past month this amount has been reduced about a tenth. If this reduction goes on it will very soon reach a point where prices will be sharply affected. The consumption in the United States is less this year almost in propor tion to the falling off of the crop, but ft is not in Great Britain and Euro;*. So far, prices seem to have been been kept down by the rapidity with which a short crop has been marketed; but it seems certain that for the rest of the crop year the sup ply will sharply diminish, and the only uuestion as to price lies In the demand for fhe manufactured article.

General Grant does not appear to be much of a negropbilist. He received, yes terday, a deputation of colored veterans in silence, and shook off the crowd as rap idly as possible. There was a tremendous row raised when he desired to buy a West India island and colonize the blacks there* but it was really an attempt to unload what he foresaw to he a fearful burden for the party and country* to bear. I am sat isfied that a majority of the Republican leaders would willingly get rid of the col ored element if they knew how. Bathed in that wav and |terp!exed politically. North and South, by. an abnormal balance of power, the new device is to help educate the illiterate of all colors and conditions, with a hope that a smattering of erudition may allay an evil imjKja.sible of permanent cure.

CUBA LIBRE. A Cuban Patriot on Ceneral Aguero’a Ex pedition. Times-DemocraL In an interview with a well-known Cuban, but whose name must necessarily be a blank (for reasons too palpable to mention) the following facts were gathered by a Times-Democrat reporter In reference to the condition of affairs respecting the much talked-of filibustering expedition. Said he: Cuba will most assuredly gain its point. No matter what forces may be called upon or placed on the island by the Spanish government, the result will be, in the course of time, liberty to the Cubans. If nothing else were to interpose, the ex hausted condition of the Spanish treasury alone would cause the island to become one of the American republics. The arrival of the Agucro expedition is regarded as one more aid to the others al ready eager for the fray. On Aguero's ar rival, it is claimed that many other leaders will be in readiness to unite w ith him, and who are only waiting for arms and ammu nition to assist him in raising an army. "But how can the Cubans compete against so large a military force as the Spaniards nave on the island,” queried the T.-l). reporter. "It matters not liow small the number may be of Cuban soldiers, whatever fight ing is to be done, we are bound to be vic torious,” replied the putriot; "for,” said he, "the Cubans occupy the winning posi tion. and are acquainted with the hill- and woods which surround the country, and know how to take advantage of their knowledge.” "What have the Cubans done of late?” ’‘Clubs have been reorganized at all the emigration points, such ns New York. Boston, Philadelphia, Vera Cruz. New Or leans, Key West, etc., since Gen. Aguero has visited them, and at the several meet ings called by him funds were raised to aid the cause. Not only this—every Cuban on the island and every Cuban who may have been forced to leave his country knows but one ambition, and that is Viva Cuba, and they will one and all fiock to the live- pointed star when the bugle sound calls to arms. Moreover,” said the Cuban, “one of the principle banks in Havana failed lately on account of Spain refusing or fail ing to recognize their paper. This was followed by the suppression of payments in other banks in Cuba, thus showing the incapacity of the Spanish government financially. Commercial houses have also felt the shock, and are failing rapidly in succession. "The vessel that lately ran the gauntlet and landed some twenty men and consid erable ammunition put in at Hicacos, which is the port for Cardenas, a town of 25.000 inhabitants. ROSWELL P. FLOWER.

Mr. Wm, Henry Woods, of New York, reached the city yesterday to look after the affairs of the Alabama Mineral Land Company, of which he is the president Mr. Woods is an Alabamian, but is now residing in New York and is well informed on political and current events. Knowing he was posted as to the drift of public opinion regarding who would likely be the nominee of the Democratic party, we sought an opportunity to get his views on the subject. Mr. Woods,, in reply to our question touching presidential matters, said: "There is no question about it. If the Democrats expect to win in the coming election they must carry New York, and t« do that they must head the ticket with a New York man.” "Well, who is the man?” "It is a foregone conclusion that the man to nominate, by all odds, is Roswell I*. Flower.” "Wherein is his strength?” we asked. "He is strong with everybody. He is particularly strong before the great mass Governor Smith, of Georgia. His political record is just about as pefezt as it could be made. lie is regarded as one o! the best business men in the country, and is solid with that class of people. But above PLOW ail, he is the only man in New York who can unite the Democratic par ty in that State. You know there are three Democratic factions in New York— the Tammany, the Irving Hall and the County Democracy, aft more hitter toward each other than toward the Republicans. Mr. Flower has never mixed himself with their dissensions, and they would all unite on him and thus he could carry New York by over 100,000 votes. We all know it takes money to carry doubtful States, and in this connection I venture to say if Flower is the nominee a campaign fund will be raised larger than ever raised for anj other candidate at any time; yes, two or three times as much as ever went into a cam paign fund.” "Where will this money come from?” "From his personal ami political friends, and a large amount of it from rich Repub licans who are disgusted with the methods of their narty.

Nevertheless, the belief y in the steadiness of America’s friendship is so strong that there are no fears in official circlet of any move ment on the part of the United States or its diplomats to complicate matters by even suggesting the purchase of Cuba.

Four plantations in Cuba have been destroyed by Aguero. It is fear ed that another filibustering expedition Is now fitting out at Turks Islands for Cuba. These islands are under British dominio i. Hi!ALL CUBA BE OURM? The subject of the annexation of Cuba to the United States was first mooted jiiHt after the French Republic was proclaimed, in 1848. The American government, while willing it should remain a Spanish colony, declared that no other foreign government should ever possess it. In 1825 Spain had proposed to cede Cuba to the United States In consideration of certain commercial concessions, hut this was declined. In 1H4H President Polk offered to buy the island for 81,000,000, but to this Spain would not lisu-n. In 1849 u filibusterini expedition under Ixipcz was prevent) by the United States government. A sec ond expedition got away successfully, but Lopez was defeated, and himself garroted and other leaders publicly shot. Since 1852 the question of the acquisition of Cuba bus entered freely into American politics. In 1851 Buchanan, Mason and Soule. American ministers at London, Paris ami Madrid, drew up the celebrated Ostein manifesto, urging that Cuba, should belong to the United States and that if Spain would not sell it should be taken, under certain contingencies, by force. the price or rERED. In 1858-9 the United States Senate con sidered a proposition to pay $30,000,000 for the inland. This was t|ie plan of Slidell, of Louisiana. It was finally withdrawn. The sum uarueil in the bill, which was re ported favorably bv both the committees of the Senate and Ifoune, was proposed to l>e appropriated for a secret or disguised purjawe, but to enable the President to make a payment to the Spanish govern- ment, on the full ratification of the treaty by Spain, without vaiting for Its ratifica tion by the Senate and the appropriation ot the money by Congress. A minority re- K rt was presented by the House commit- i which opposed the bill on the ground tiiat Cuba would be an unprofitable acquisition, owing to the necessity of pre venting internal disorders which would be sure to arise, and tiiat it would be & dan* gerous precedent to allow the President to have the disposal of $30,000,000 for the set tlement of a treaty before its ratification by the Senate. stance that if Mr. Grunt, Mr. Hayes and Garfield are not elected that the country will be financially ruined. There are few outside of New York who know how this kind of talk has frightened thu moneyed men of both parties, and as a consequence brought out more campaign funds for the Republicans. If Flower heads the ticket this card will be in our hands, for his record in Congress mil as a business man will dissipate any thought that the finan cial condition of the country will suffer under his administration.” "How old is Mr. Flower, and what offices has he held?” "He is about 48 years of age, is married and has a beautiful daughter. He had two children. The other, a boy. died a few years ago. He was elected a tew years ago to the United States Congress, defeat ing Mr. Astor In a district where the Re publicans had a large majority.

He was chair man of the New York Democratic execu tive committee when Tilden was elected, having charge of Tlld*n*5 c«nYa«.” •What dolhe people of New York think of the old ticket?” "They do not think about it at all. To nominate it Is simply out of the question. Tilden is physically unable to make the race, and would not accept the nomination under any circumstances. If he were nominated and were to accept, it would result in a fearful defeat for the Democratic party. His nomination would be consid ered an effort to practically make Hen dricks President/ and on that ground alone we would lose New York. The old ticket boom is being dil igently nursed by a few politicians who under that cover, expect to name the nom inee of the Democratic party. Everybody in New York understands that.” "How does Flewer stand in other States.” Hu stands first-class everywhere, and his great speech in (Congress on the Chi nese question will bring to his support California, Oregon and Colorado.
