WEDNESDAY MORNING, JUNE 20, 1806.
Jefferson Davis' Prison Life.
Dr. Craven, at one time Mr. Davis’ physician
at Fortress Monroe, lias written a remarkable
volume of the sayings and doings of his illus
trious charge. The Now York papers Tiave
lengthened reviews of this book, and from them
we select the more interesting paragraphs.:
SEWARD AND STANTON DISGRACE AMERICA—
AN INVALID IN IRONS.
On the morning of the 28d of May, a yet bit
terer trial was in store for the prond spirit—a
trial severer, probably, than has ever in modern
times been inflicted upon any one who had en
joyed such eminence. This morning Jefferson
Davis was shackled.
It was while all the swarming camps of the
armies of the Potomac, the Tennessee and
Georgia—over two hundred thousand bron/.ed
and laureled veterans—were preparing for the
Grand Review of the next morning, in which,
passing in endless succession before the man
sion of the President, the conquering military
power of the nation was to lay down its arms
at the feet of the civil authority, that the follow
ing scene was enacted at Fort Monroe :
Captain Jerome E. Titlow, of the Third Penn
sylvania Artillery, .entered the prisoner’s cell,
followed by the blacksmith of the fort and his
assistant, the latter carrying jn his liauds some
heavy and harshly-rattling shackles. As they
entered, Mr. Davis was teclining on Ids bed,
feverish and weary after a sleepless night, the
food plaeed near to him the preceding day still
lying untouched oil its tin plate near his bed
side.
“Well!” said Mr. Davis, as they entered,
slightly raising his head.
“I have an unpleasant duty to perform, sir,
said Captain Titlow ; and as he spoke the senior
blacksmith took the shackles from his assistant.
Davis leaped instantly from his recumbent
attitude, a Hush passing over bis face for a mo
ment, and then his countenance growing livid
and rigid as death.
He gasped for breath, clutching his throat
■with the thin fingers oi his right hand, and
then recovering himself slowly, while his
wasted figure towered up to its full height
now appearing to swell wit li indignation, and
then to shrink with terror, as lie glanced from
the captain’s face to the shackles—he said
slowly and with a laboring chest:
“My God! You cannot have been sent to
iron me?” r
“Such arc my orders, sir,” replied the othcer,
beckoning the blacksmith to approach, who
klooped forward, unlocking the padlock, and
preparing the fetters to do their office. Theso
letters were of heavy iron, probably live-eighths
of an inch in thickness, and connected together
by a chain of like weight. I believe they are
now in the possession of Major Genera’. Miles,
and will form an interesting relic.
“This is too monstrous,” groaned the pris
oner glaring hurriedly round the room, as if
lor some weapon, or means of seli-dcstruction.
“I demand, Captain, that you let mo see the
commanding officer. Can lie pretend that such
shackles are required to secure the safe custody
of a weak old man, so guarded and in such a
fort as this?”
“It could serve no purpose,” replied Gap
tain Titlow ; “ his orders arc from Washington,
as mt'.ne are from him.”
“Rut he can telegraph,” interposed Mr.
Davis eagerly ; there must he some mistake.
No such outrage as you threaten me with is on
record in the history of nations. Beg Dim to
telegraph, and delay until he answers.”
“ My orders are peremptory,” said the offi
cer “ apd admit of no delay. For your own
sake let me advise you to submit with patience.
As a’ soldier, Mr. Davis, you know I must
execute orders.”
“These are imt orders for a soldier, shouted
the prisoner, losing all control of himself.
“ They are orders for a jailer—for* a hangman,
which no soldier wearing a sword should ac
cept! I tell you the world will ring with this
disgrace. The war is over ; the South is con
quered ; I have no longer any country but
America, and it is for the honor of America, as
lor my own honor and life, that 1 plead against
this degradation. Kill me! kill me! lie
cried, passionately, throwing his arms wide
open and exposing his breast, “ rather than in
flict on me, and on my people through me, this
Snsult worse than death.”
“Do your duty, blacksmith," said the officer,
walking towards the embrasure as if not earing
to witness the performance. “It only gives in
creased pain on all sides to protract this inter
view.”
At these words the blacksmith advanced with
the .shackles, and seeing that the prisoner had
one loot upon the chair near his bedside, his
right hand resting on the back of it, the brawny
mechanic made an attempt to slip one of the
shackles over the ankle so raised; but, as if
with the vehemence and strength which frenzy
can impart, even to the weakest invalid, Mr.
Davis suddenly seized his assailant and hurled
him half way across the room.
On this Captain Titlow turned, and seeing
that Davis bad backed against the wall for fur
ther resistance, began to remonstrate, pointing;
out in brief, clear language, that this course was
madness, and that orders must be enforced at
uuy cost. “ Why compel me,” lie said, “to add
the further indignity of personal violence to the
necessity of your being ironed."
“I aiiia prisoner of war,” fiercely retorted
Davis; “ 1 have been a soldier in the armies of
America, and know how to die. Only kill me,
and my last breath shall be a blessing on your
bead. But while 1 have life and strength to
resist for myself and for my people, this thing
shall not be done.”
Hereupon Captain Titlow called in a ser
geant and tile of soldiers from the next room,
and the sergeant advanced to seize the prison
er. Immediately Mr. Davis flew on him, seiz
ed his musket, and attempted to wrench it from
bis grasp.
Os course such a scene could have but ouc
issue. There was a short, passionate scuffle. —
In a moment Davis was flung upon his bed,
and before his four powerful assailants remov
ed their hands from him, the blacksmith and
his assistant had done their work—one secu
ring the rivet on the right ankle, while the
other turned the key ou the padlock on the
ieft.
After the ironing had been accomplished,
Mr. Davis lay for a moment as if in stupor, then
slowly raising himself and turning round, he
dropped his shackled feet to the floor. The
harsh clank of the striking'chain seems first to
have recalled liim to bis situation, and, drop
ping his face into his hands, lie burst iuto a
passionate flood of sobbing, rocking to and fro,
and mattering at brief intervals “Oh, the shame
the shame!'
It may here be stated, though out of its due
order —that we may get rid in haste ot an un
pleasant subject—that Mr. Davis, some two
months later, when frequent visits had made
liim more free of .converse, gave me a curious
explanation oi the last feature in this incident.
He had been speaking of suicide and de
nouncing it as tlie worst form of cowardice and
folly. “Life is not like a commission, that we
can resign when disgusted with the service.—
Taking it by your own hand is a confession of
judgment to all that your worst enemies can
allege. It has often flashed across me as a
tempting remedy for neuralgic torture, but,
thank God, I never sought my own death but
onee, and then when completely frenzied aud
not master of my actions. When they came to
iron me that day, as a last resource of despera
tion, l seized a soldier’s musket and attempted
to wrench it from his grasp, hoping that, in the
scuffle and surprise some one of his comrades
would shoot or bayonet me.”
THE TORTURE OF TIIE PRISONER.
Happening to notice that his coffee stood
cold and apparently untasted beside his bed in
its tin cup, I remarked that here was a contra
diction of the assertion implied in the old army
question. “ Who ever saw cold coffee in a tin
cup t” referring to the eagerness with which
soldiers of all classes, when campaigning, seek
for and use this beverage.
“ I cannot drink it,” he remarked, “ though
fond of coffee all my life. It is the poorest ar
ticle of the s«rt 1 have ever tasted ; and if your
Government pays for such stuff as coffee, the
purchasing quartermaster must begetting rich.
It surprises me, too, for 1 t hought your soldiers
must have the best—many of my generals com
plaining of the difficulties they encountered in
seeking to prevent our people from making
volunteer truces with your soldiers whenever
the lines ran near each other, for the purpose
of exchanging the tobacco we had in abundance"
against your coffee and sugar.”
Told iiim to spend as little time in bed as he
could ; that exercise was the best medicine for
dyspeptic patients. To this he answered by
uncovering the blankets from his feet and show
ing me his sfiackled ankles.
“It is impossible for me, doctor; I cannot
even stand erect. These, shackles are very
heavy ; I know not, with the chain, how many
pounds. If I try to move they trip me, and
have already abraded broad patches ot skin
from the parts they touch. Can you devise no
means to pad or cushion them, so that when I
try to drag them along they may not chafe me
so intolerably ? My limbs have so little flesh
on them, and that so weak as to be easily lace
rated.”
THE SIMPLE FACTS OF MR. DAVIS’ CAPTURE.
Having joined his family, he-traveled with
them for several days, in consequence of find
ing the region infested with deserters and rob
bers engaged in pluhdering whatever was de
fenceless, his intention being to quit his wife
whenever she had reached a safe portion of the
country, and to bear wes't across the Chattahoo
chee. The very evening before Ins arrest, he
was to have carried out this arragement, be
lieving Mrs. Davis to be now safe, but was pre
vented by a report brought in through one of
his aides, that a pprty of guerrillas, or highway
men, was coming that night to seize the horses
and mules of his wife's train. It was on this
report ho decided to remain another night.
Toward morning he had jnst fallen into the
deep sleep of exhaustioh, when his wife’s faith
lul neoro servant, Robert, came to him au-
Eouncing that there was firing up the road. He
started up, dressed himself and went out. it
Was just at gray dawn, and by the imperfect
light he saw a party approaching the camp.—
They were recognized as Federal cavalry by
the way in which they deployed to surround
the train, and he stepped back into the tent to
warn his wife that the enemy were at hand.
Their tent was prominent, being isolated from
the other tents of the train ; and as he was quit
ting it to find his horse, several of the cavalry
rode up, directing him to halt and surrender.: —
To this he gave a defiant answer. Then one,
whom he supposed to be an officer, asked, had
he any arms, to which Mr. Davis replied: “If I
had, you would not be alive to ask that ques
tion.” His pistols had been left in the holsters,
as it, had been his intention, the evening before,
to start whenever the camp was settled; but
horse, saddle and holsters were now in the eue- j
my’s possession, and he was completely un
armed. _ ,
Colonel Pritchard, commanding the Federal
cavalry, came up soon, to whom Mr. Davis
said: “ I suppose, sir, your orders are accom
plished iu arresting me. You can have no wish
to interfere with women and children, ami I
beg they may be permitted to parsuc their
journey.” The Colonel replied that his orders
were to take every one found in my company
back to Macon, and.be would have to do so,
though grieved to inconvenience the ladios.
Mr. Davis said his wife’s party was composed
of paroled men, who had committed no act of
war since t heir release, and begged they might
be permitted to go tt> their homes ; but the
Colonel under bis orders, did not feel at liberty
to grant this request. They were all taken to
Macon, therefore, reaching it in four days, and
from thence were carried by raft to Augusta—
Mr. Davis thanking Major General J. H. Wil
son for having treated him with all the cour
tesy possible to the situation.

comes Abolitionist ami Renegade.
A correspondent of the World, writing from
Herkimer, New York, the native place of Un
derwood, gives a brief sketch of the past history
of this now notorious persou, from which we
make tlie following extract. The reader will
recollect tins is copied verbatim from a North
ern paper aud is an accurate estimate of Under
wood’s standing where he was born :
Tlie unworthy and disgraceful ciiarge ot
Judge Underwood to the Grand Jury of the
United States District Court at Richmond,
which appears in the New York papers of to
day, induces me to inform you and your readers
who this Underwood is, and wliat his past his
tory lias been. Here, where he is known, it is
not necessary, but the public should have some
information as to what kind of a t man he is,
and in what estimation be was held.
Underwood was born in this county, (Herki
mer count!', New York) and remained a resi
dent here until about the year 1850. After be
ing admitted to tlie bar he opened an office iu
this village. The precise time is not now re
collected, but it must have been about the year
1838. At that time lie was a member of the
Whig party. From his defeat*for office in the
Whig party, lie became a famous Abolitionist,
and down to the time be left the county he w#
jin Abbey Killer Foster Abolitionist. He opened
a law office, but lie never was able as a lawyer
to command tlie respect of bis fellow-citizens.
He was without clients, and mainly because he
was a lazy drone, and because there was a gen
eral feeling in the community that his integrity
could not be relied upon. So low had he sunk
in that respect in the estimation of bis towns
men, that his name was a reproach and his pre
sence was considered no compliment, and his
character was no protection to him from open
insults in the streets. At one time some mis
chievous boys in this village did to him what
they would uaver have thought of doing to any
man of respectable standing in tlie village.—
They drove a donkey intojbls office and left him
there all night.
Failing as a lawyer and having plenty cf
leisure, life made himself conspicuous in the
Abolition movement, and occasionally delivered
Abolition and temperance lectures, until at last,
driven to the necessity Os doing something for
a living, he purchased some standing wood and
commenced getting out wood and ties for the
railroad company.
While in practice here, among other stories
currently told of liim as characteristic of tlie
man, was one to this effect. Au ignorant old
man wanted to buy or complete bis title to a
lot of land in this town, tins fee of which was
owned by an estate, the agent of which resided
in Albany. He gave Underwood (lie money to
take to Albany to make the purchase or get the
deed for him. Underwood came back with the
contract or title in bis own name arid represent
ed to the old man tbqt be could not,on account
of some some difficulty, get tljo land for him ;
but he found that he could purchase it for him
self and did so in bis own name, but be would
sell the land for an advaueed price, which the
old man was compelled to give in order to get
the land,
Filially, starved out, he broke up and went
with his family to Virginia, Fauquier county, I
believe, lo five upon some lands which belong
ed to bis wife, Ho far as lie was personally con
cerned, no one having respect l'or lilmsell, eared
for him or regretted bis leaving. It was consid
ered a happy ridauce, and when lie had gone
there was a general feeling in this county that
it had'got rid of a nuisance. He held the
office of fjri/fitpp of a school district in this vil
lage, and as such was iijtfusted with some of
the funds of the district, and in: applied them
to his own use. Whcnealhal upon by liis suc
cessor in office to account for Hie money, be
could not do it, aud, after repeated demands
upon him lor the menus’ arid failing to gffl it,
' bis successor sued him before a justice and re
covered judgment, which, after considerable
delay, was collected on execution. On another
Occasion be collected money for a client, and,
on being written to by him to know il the col
lection was made, lie replied that the money was
not collected, and his eiicut v ; as led to believe
by Underwood that, lie bad lulled collect the
money; and sometime after lie bad lull (he
county iris client called upon other attorneys to
collect tlie amount, when on investigation it
was found that this worthy, whom the war has
brought to the surface, as a judge, had collected
tfie money several years before and bad gone to
Virginia. {lc, of course, was called upon to
pay over, and lie did an by installments, plead
ing that, lie had forgotten the collection, which
no one knowing him believed for one moment.
I have said be went to Virginia on lands belong
ing to his wife. She is a lady with whom bo,it
is said, became acquainted while teaching school
in Virginia, aud to whom he was married about
1830. She is a Virginian, and is honorably con
nected, being a double cousin ol the late great
Confederate General, Stonewall Jackson. Un
denvopd continued to reside pn ills wife’s
lands until 1806, when he turned up as a dele
gate from Virginia, in the National Republican
Convention, which nominated Fremont for
President. He, of course, bail no constituents.
He was a self-styled ffelegato taking bis scat in
that convention, and very naturally such a
course on his part excited some surprise and
indignation among his Virginia neighbors, who,
on seeing liis name announced as a delegate to
that convention, at some meeting held in bis
neighborhood, passed resolutions indignantly
denying that he was authorised to express or
represent the sentiment of any portion of the
people of Virginia in that convention.
He was at once adopted by the Republican
disorganizes as an instrument to be used by
them, and none more pliant or base could be
found; and the next we hear of him we find
him appointed to some agency in a Virginia
Emigration Society, then founded in New York.
Too lazy to work, lie found liis connection with
this society more suitable to liis taste and dis
position than the drudgery of a farm life in
Virginia. The next heard of him he turned up
at. the Chicago Convention which nominated
Lincoln, and again as a delegate from Virginia,
although he had long ceased to be a resident of
that State. At Chicago it was reported of him
that lie had been engaged, as part of bis busi
ness since lie left Virginia, in peddling the mis
chievous Helper Book, and at that time he had
it on the st reets in Chicago for sale.
After the election of Lincoln, his wife per
sonally interceded with the President in liis be
half appointment, and he was' appointed
to some office in (be Treasurer’s Department.—
This office be held until, unluckily for the honor
of the Bench and the cause of justice, be was
appointed to the high aud important office from
which ho made that disgraceful harangue yes
terday.
Last summer he visited this village, but not
even his high oflice could rescue him from gen
eral contempt. He was welcomed nowhere, re
ceived nowhere. Herkimer.

The Stay Law.
Messrs. Editors: I have had several letters
addressed to me as chairman of the Committee
on the Judiciary of the House of Representa
tives asking my views as to the intention of
the Legislature in passing the proviso to the
I st section of the Stay Law.
My. position as Chairman of Ihc Committee
on the Judiciary does not give to my opinion
.any additional weight, and ns a lawyer I am
sure there are many in Georgia whose legal
judgment is entitled to more consideration,
but as the lawyers seem to differ in their con
struction of the proviso, and several inquiries
of general interest have been put to me, I will,
with your permission, answer them through
the Sun and Times.
Ist. If defendant fails to pay \{ of the execu
tion by Ist of January, 186.7, may plaintiff levy
and sell more property than will be sufficient
to pay X?
My opinion is that plaintiff’ under such cir
cumstances, after Ist January, 1807, will bo
entitled to collect liis whole debt.
2d. Are debtors obliged to pay % (of debts
not in suit,) before the lEt January, 1807, in
order to entitle them to stay executions issued
on judgments obtained after Ist January, 1*?67 ?■
My opinion is that any debt accruing prior to
June, 1865, on which the debtor shall fail to pay
\i by the Ist January, 1807, although not in
judgment or even in suits, is a debt within the
proviso, and that the debtor by failing to pay,
loses all benefit of the stay law.
The object of the Stay Law was to give time
to the honest debtor, anxious, but unable to
pay and to save his property from unnecessary
sacrifice, It was thought that a larger amount
of money would be realized to the aggregate of
creditors out of the total assets of the debtor
class by giving four years credit, than could be
realized by forced payments, hut it was expect
ed that debtors would gp earnestly to toork to
liquidate balances.
If I am.right in my construction of the law,
the debtor, in order tp avail himself of the ben
efit of the act, must be prepared in all cases on
the Ist January, 1867, to show that he lias paid
one-fourth of the debt as- it existed on the Bth
of March, .1866, and every debt, altlfbngh ac
cruing prior to June, 1865, on which payment
shall not be made by the Ist January, 1867, will
be subject to judgment, execution and sale as
though the act of Bth March, 1866, had not been
passed. Respectfully,
R. J. Moses.

• The Stolen Watches.
#\Vhcn Wilson’s cavalry captured Macon they
camped for several days outside of that town.
Complaints innumerable were brought to Gen.
Wilson by the people of the surrounding coun
try of the universal pillage which had marked
his progress. Tlie General caused a general
■searcli througnout the eamp, but none of tlie
plundered valuables could be found. Tbe wllv
General finally hit upon an expedient: At even
ing parade the order was read for tlie men to
be in readiness at daybreak next riiorning to
continue tbe march. Greater part of that night
a general digging up was going on in aud about
the camp ground, and next morning, after ‘a
march of a few miles, a halt was called in the
midst of an extensive old field, and every man
in the. line searched, and enough of gold and
silver watches, chains, rings, chains, bracelets,
[date, precious stones, etc., etc., brought to
light to fill two farm wagons, which the General
caused to be put into safe custody, aud the
artielcs returned to the proper owners when
ever identified.”
Tlie above extract is taken from an article in
a recent of tbe New Orleans Daily Cres
cent, commenting on tbe frauds exhibited by
the returns of the Internal Revenue Commis
sioners at the North. As it is from such scraps
that future historians will compile books, pro
posing to give a true account of tbe incidents
of the late civil war, we wish to add our testi
mony about this particular matter, in order to
“vindicate the truth of.history.” We do not
know if General Wilson did take from bis
raiders “ two wagon loads ” of watches and
valuables, but from tlie numerous and well au
thenticated instances of tbe wholesale plunder
ing upon thoir part, here and elsewhere, we
have no doubt but that even a larger amount
might have been taken from them. We hap
pened to be iu Macop when an order was issued
by Wilson, calling upon people who had been
'robbed to come up, identify and receive their
stolen watches, jewelry, etc. We then saw
many gentlemen residing on the line of bis
march, seeking property of said description,
which had beeu taken from them, and though
we made the most diligent inquiry, we failed to
find a single persqu who had beeu enabled to
recover any portion of his lost possessions.
Some few broken-down mules and sore-back
horses were given to parties making prostosta
•rions of loyalty throughout the war, in return
for valuable animals of which they had been
robbed. Tbe restitution amounted to
“ bnly tills, aud nothing more,’’
One indictment will perhaps serve to show
the desire to remedy these indefensible wrongs
aud will determine how much credit is due to
General Wilson for justice and magnanimity.
A distinguished officer who fell in dofense of
our city was robbed, after death, of a very cost
ly and valuable watch and chain. On the day
of his burial, a Capt. Whiting, of Des Moines,
lowa, attended his funeral, in command of a
guard, wearing that identical watch, ne re
fused to give it up upon demand, aud subse
quently told a lady of our city that the deceased
officer bad preseuted it to him just before bis
death, when it was well known that he did not
survive his wound long enough to utter one
word. Subsequently Gen. Wilson was applied
to and made acquainted with these facts. He
issued an order to sojne of his Subordinates to
get the watch from 4Whiting, and though in
formed of their failure to procure it, he did not
have it returned or take steps to punish an offi
cer of liis command.for robbing the dead.
All through the country fieople were forcibly
robbed of everything valuable wlfloh could
be easily transported. Old meu wore hung up
to make them tell of the hiding places of their
wealth, and women, young and old, were
wantonly abused and insulted. Officers of high
rank did not scruple to take the carriages of
our citizens to haul off their paramours, black
and white, and it restitution or punishment
followed one of these offences, we have not as
yet heard of it.
We have recorded these facts ns a matter of
justice merely, to all concerned. Wp do not
desire to add to them the indignant comment
which they suggest, and if they should recall
lo some of our readers acerbating recollections
of the past, we trust that even they, coupled
with the “heated term,” now upon us, will not
seriously interfere with the duties and devo
tions of tlie dav

A True Estimate.
Does any sane man, any rational politician,
if such a nondescript can be found, suppose
that were the South to accept the terms pro
posed by the Radicals in Congress they would
be willing to see our Representatives hack
there ? That factions majority, at the head of
which Chief Justice Chase now stands, their
President in prospcctu , who fg'e opposing the
wise policy of President Johnson, offer us re
storation to the Union if we will adopt their
doctrine of negro suffrage. This they demand
and insist on, knowing tlie South will not as
sent to such a bargain. It the South were to
accept their terms to-morrow no body would
be more surprised or shocked than these self
same Radicals. We much fear that not even
llie bouquet d' Africana , in allopathic doses,
would restore Messrs. Sumner, Stevens & Co.
from the collapse into which they would in
evitably sink upon tlie announcement that the
South iiad accepted their proposed bargain and
adopted negro suffrage. They offer it' because
they know it will uafbo accepted, and would be
excessively surprised were the South to adopt
ir. aud their plan of perpetuating their power
by tlie exclusion of trie Southern States lie de
feated. Were we inclined to entertain their
proposition we would distrust their sincerity,
\ycll knowing that it is but an excuse for delay,
and tliat were it accepted oilier obstacles would
be thrown in the way of our restoration. Were
the negroes made voters to-morrow,Jthey would
add nothing to the Republican strength. Iu
nine cases opt of ten we believe they would
vote with their former masters and employers,
who are their natural guardians and protectors,
and to whom now, in trouble or distress, they
look for protection and assistance, arid do not
look in vain. To tbe great disgust of the anti
slavery society,, fwc would wager that fiinety
nine in a hundred-vote with their for
mer masters. We understand them, and speak
knowingly ;'have been brought up by and
amongst them, and appreciate their common
sense views qf their own interests. Their white
employers would have twice the influence with
them of those nasal twanged gentlemen of An
dover, those jiious theological fledglings froirq
the Cambridge divinity school, or the radiant
army of lovely “ school-manga” that has inva
ded ns. Good'juicy Virginia bacou, corn bread
hominy, and a tumbler of whiskey would have
ajhundi ed-fo'xl ihe effect that all the codfish
and hard tack the “ Bosting” market could
produce. John Brown’s perturbed spirit could
never contend in this world with Davy Crock
ett's style ot electioneering. And this the
Radicals would learn to their cost, should they
succeed in forcing negro suffrage on the unhap
py South. The Southern planter, like a high
land chieftain at the head of liis clan, would
marshal liis hands at the polls with much more
certainty of control than B:e mili owners of
Lowell or Manchester do thoir operatives.
But the South will never consent to the de
grading bargain and sale proposed, which pal
pably violate the letter and spirit of the Con
stitution, under which it is now supposed to
be. It would rather await patiently the hour
when the conservative sentiment of the North
shall rescue it without sale from the political
degradation In which it now is. IVe would
uot accept restoration on such terms, if every
bale of cotton, every article of plate, furniture
or clothing, that has been taken from us, should
be restored to its lawful owner.

“ I have not been very popular with my peo

that it should be done in the spirit of love, not
of hatred. I consider the doctrines brought
forward in the House of Representatives by Mr.
Stevens, though followed in their entirety,
thank God! by very few, 1 think them to be the
doctrines of Belial, leading them to destruction,
flic North had a chance to show grace, and
love, and magnanimity. How 1 longed to see
it! Both Congress and the President should
haye been pressed to Union. I had hoped to
see .the North showing her superiority in
Christian nobleness and generous forgiveness.
But I have been disappointed. It has not been
done. You can no more change rebels to loyal
men by casting them out and turning them
away, than you can convert the wioked liy
building up a.wall of separation between them
and the good—shutting them out from the vcyy
influences that should be brought to bear upou
them. “If thine enemy hunger, feed him ; if
he thirst, give him drink ; for in so doing thou
shalt heap coals of Are upon his head. Be not
overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.”
There, go ; vote that. Yon have been talking it
long enough ;do it. You have been praying it
long enough ; try it.”
The Rail Mall Gazette has the following in
regard to the erection of a statue to Mr. Pea
body
If the city wishesiffo know how it etta best
show its gratitude to Mr. Peabody, wc should
advise it to follow Mr. Peabody’s example.—
That will be far better and far more' gratifying
to Mr. Peabody himself than to put up a ntatue
lighted up with a perpetual smile under a coat
ing of dirt, or shivering without a liat iu the
open street from which he has rescued the poor
ol London. It will he no compliment to Mr.
Peabody, when he returns, as everpbody hopes
he may return, from America, to And that he
lias added one more monstrosity to those already
existing, if his example hears fruit, and all
who have made money in London wiil devote a
portion to advancing the welfare of its poor,
the English will have erected the noblest mon
ument to their American benefactor; and, to
adopt Pitt’S words, Mr. Peabody will have .saved
the poor by his energy and the rich by his
example.

MARF.ied, I i
On the evening of the l'dth inst., at Js residence of
the bride’s mother, by the Rev. Mr. Brunson, Mr.
John Arc bib, of An/ ; U sta, Ga., and Mice Gl»*vx
Tubmo-nd, of Edgefield District, South Carolina.
OBITUARY.
Died, o n the Bth ir tat., in Lexington, Ga., Thomas A.
Mpss, » r >»» of Mr. aud Mrs. Thomas B. Moss, in ihe
14th year of his agf;.
The dear little br iy, who has thus early in life laid
him d.own to the sweet rest of the grave, possessed
many traits of c) laracter, many pleasant qiAlities
whieJi endeared him peculiarly to his fond jarents,
his beloved relatives, and, indeed, to alt wto knew
and could appreciate his gentle spirit. /
(A child of extraordinary intellectual proviso in his
earliest years, h e bade fair to be an ornsniont to so
ciety and the pr :de and joy of his family. But alas! it
was not so to bo, for a terrible physical malady seized
upon his infaD t form, and despite the bt*t Sforts of
the physicians, regardless of the constant and cease
less attentions of a devoted mother, the unwearying
care of a fond father, the fell destroyer marched on
with steady and remorseless tramp, until the powers
of life, exhausted by tho straggle, yield'd th« contest,
and the vexed frame found rest, sweet rtetl in tho
tomb.) »•
Quiet, refined, and gentle in iiis tastes and habits,
unselfish, and thoughtful Jor tbo comfort of others,
grateful fur tbo smallest kindness, his life, though
brief, has been useful and instructive. I
Let his stricken paronts and friends find coitfort in
the well-founded hope that tho same moicifjl BelnJ
who laid’ tho rod of physical aulitning on “ Littl >
Tommv,” purified his immortal spirit in His own way,
fitting him tor the blessed change which krougbt-wolt
come rest to his body and Heaven’s own light to hi i
emancipated soul. * A Frihsu

ble. Those making proposals will present samples of
their Limbs to Dr*. L. A. Dugas, 11. 11. Steiner and Lewis
D. Ford, of Augusta, Ga., being the committee of scientific
surgeons appointed to examine and report upon different

act entitled “ an Act for the relief of maimed indigent
soldiers and officers, citizens of this State, who belonged
to the military organfeations of this State, in the State
