Our readers will remember that live or six
weeks since, a Mr. Price was murdered, in bis
wagon, while camping at night, near the house
of Mr. Moore, in the vicinity ol the Quaker
Springs, about six miles from the city. The
names ot the parties accused have been in the
possession of the Chief of Police for some
time, tint he has been skillfully and quietly
managing the affair with the hope of arresting
all the implicated. Wednesday the Chief wan
flalisited that the of'the gang still at large had
secreted themselves and that there was little
prospect of their speedy apprehension, con
cluded to request a preliminary examination ol
John Driver and Lewis Jones, two of the party
whom he has had in arrc-l several days. Lewis
•Tones is an old jail bird, having In i, his right,
hand from the effects of a gun shot wound re
ceived while at templing' his escape Irom Col.
Thco. Bridges’ secure lodgings on Watkins
street.
The Magistrates ail ting in the ease are: John
Reynolds, Foster Blodgett and Robt. M. Phini
;/,y, Esquires. Judge McLaws aud Joseph
Ganahl, Esq., appeared for the prosecution, and
Judge Hook and Col. John Millcdge for the
defense.
Claiborne Page (colored), i worn- -testified :
When tbii party in (. approached the wagon I
was asleep; one <>l them asked, “ are you a
white mail or a lilnelc man ; are you attending
to your own business;” they then walked
down the road, out of sight, but soon return
ed ; I cannot tell how long; when I awaked I
saw these men standing by the wagon ; one
said to Price, “ wake, upand asked him
where lie was going; he answered, “up the
country a piece ;” he asked Price, “ have you
any liiptor ;” Price said “No;” he then asked,
“ what have you in the demijohn;” Price re
plied “ Molasses." Then Price culled my name
mice; he also nulled Mr. Moore. Tim party
asked him it lie, hid money ; Price did not re
ply ; then asked 51 tie hud any arms ; no reply
was made. At this time a man came walking
down the road; lie. looked like, an old man ;
one of the party said, “halt, and do not come
another step;” !do not know what become ol
this old mail. At (Ilia time Price raised to bis
alllimrs, apparently looking lor arms ; just then
one cap tnlrst'd amt a 'nil tired; then these
men ran to the woods ; in passing hy me one
r>uid, “Jet’s kill him,” and repeated it twice; t
then got tip to wake Mr. Moore; when I re
turned to the wagon Mr. Price’s clothes were
on lire ; alter putting out the lire i sat down by
Mr. Price.
Mr. Moore sent, to the neighbors to get llieir
assistance; 1 remained until daylight with the
body. This occurred about a month ago ; last
mouth ; do not know the day of the month ; it
was on Wednesday night this year ; in Rich
mond county, State of Georgia.
There were seven or eight men together ; did
no, 1 , count them ; the voice of one seems to be
familiar; did not see him in the light; think I
vceogu.ize the voice ot the one who spoke to
mo - the same voice which addressed me on
that occasion resembles the voice of the man
to whom I spoke in jail yesterday evening ; His
the only voice which 1 have heard that resem
bles the one which addressed me that night; it
was a lisping voice ; the prisoner is the mau i
saw and spoke io in jail ; one of the men was
short; l can not say they were all dark; they
appeared dark ; 1 did not know the hour; one
of the party said it was one o’clock when Price
asked the hour; there were two mules ; some
thing was said about the mules; l told the
party not to go near j hem, they would not
allow strangers to come near them ; one was a
bay mule, the other gray; the party ran to the
woods after the gun fired ; one of the mules
lUp Ice loose, the other remained standing ; the
gßr one got loose ; Mr. Price was shot in the
leftside ; the shot killed hint; Ido not know
bow many minutes I remained at the house;
Price did fill before I left for the house; when
I came back he was .down ; the house is about
the same distance as the far window of the
Court House from where 1 am standing; at the
time Price was shot he was on his hands and
knees; a carpet sack was under him ; he ap
peared to he getting arms.
Cross examination I have a tolerable good
memory lor my age ; 1 do not recollect the
day; 1 u'ave given evidence before; at the in
vest,; 1 do not think that 1 testified to the day
of the month at that time ; do not think l was
asked the day ; what 1 have said to-day is what
l saw ; 1 do not know whether I testified to the
slay of the month or not; 1 did testify at the
inquest that Price igot on his alilours ; lam
confident I so stated at the time ; the testimony
was read over publicly, not to me particularly ;
do not recollect that my attention was called
particularly to it; 1 was toM to tell all I knew ;
l swore lo what 1 saw and knew ; I would have
corrected any errors in the evidence it I had
understood it ; I do not think f mentioned
about the old man coming down the road; l
was not asked about, it ; 1 remembered after
war via about the old man ; 1 never saw the
men after they tied to the woods ; 1 heard them
say “ Hot’s kill hint;” they repealed it twice ;
ldo not know who they meant; Iso said at
the inquest ; I am confident I so stated ; some
body said, “ Let’s kill hint ;” cannot say who ;
nui certain one of the voices had a lisping tone ;
U was the voice of the man who spoke to me
and asked, “Iff was white or black 1 did
not keep my eye on him ; there seemed lo be
Bcven or eight, ;• I was much alarmed , l do not
know who shot Price ; 1 will swear the party
had dark faces; 1 said clouds were passing
over ; 1 said I hey appeared black, but they
were white ; they had black faces ; J cannot,
nay the voice 1 heard was the voice ol the man
Who fired ; I have no knowledge of the
identity ot the man, except his voice being
similar to the one heard in jail ; I so staled to
Judee JvfcLaws ; I went to jail yesterday ;
1 thought i would walk there ; 1 went with
Mr. Christian io see a man that f was told by
Mr. Christian that .1 could go and see him ; 1
wanted to see the one who was accused of
killing Price ; 1 wanted to see John Driver ; 1
do lio't know him by feature ; the jailor brought
him out ; could not have found him myself;
JL asked him if he had any relatives in Columbia
county ; he said uo ; lie said he did uot recol
lect bavin"’ over seen me ; he, said if he ever
saw my face before he had no recollection of
it • I do not know any o. r W rel * tionß 5 l askcd
because i had heard so many tales , I
wanted to know if he was from my neighbor
hood and see if I recognized the voice ; Mr.
Christian was present; was close to Driver
part ot the time; 1 asked Driver if he lived or
staid in Columbia county ; he said no ; this is
all the conversation that I had witffhim ; I got
the mule which got loose ; the man who 6hot,
i rice was standing by the side of the wagon ;
one cud of the wagon was up the country, the
other down ; the man stood on the side the sun
rises on ; Price’s head was towards the hind
part of the wagon ; he was lying on his back ;
the gun was tired on ttie right side of the
wagon as yon go up ; I live in Lincoln county,
twenty-five miles from here.
Direct—Mr. Christian also talked to Driver
in the jail; I did not pay particular attention ;
l heard him speak in jail-; I knew he lisped by
hearing him talk.
By the Court—At the time or-the murder 1
was in Mr. Price’s employ ; Pace is the name I
had in Virginia,and have registered that name;
I did pass by the nu;nc of Lockhart at tiio time
of the murder ; was once owned by Lockhart;
I was lying about five feet from the wagon on
the night ol the murder.
Enoch Emanuel (colored), sworn—l left the
city on tiio night of the murder with John
Driver, Aleck Griffin and Nathan Collier; when
we gits to Martin’s Mill we parts there, Nathan
Collier and John Driver went up the canal, me
and Aleck goes down the street aud takes Broad
street, out through Harrisburg; I was a lectio
behind Aleck when lie come near the high
bridge, near the Powder Works; he stopped,
apparently to a little store ; I looked in to see
what he stopped for and who should I see hut
John Driver ; a little after, I went on and Aleck
come; this time I happened to look down side
o’ the canal and there sot Nathan on a rock or
a log; Nathan axed Aleck did he see anything
of John, Alerk said, “ Yes, he was in at Mrs.
Rollins, gittiu some powder and tryin’ to git
some caps;” whilst me and Aleck and Nathan
was there on the bridge, Lewis Jones and John
Williams passed us ; a little after this John
Driver come ; we then all started up the road ;
when we got above Floyd Thomas’ house, about
a hundred yards, we overtook Lewis Jones
and John Williams and passed on by, leaving
them leaning side the fence ; we went on and
crossed Ray’s Creek, and as we got on the hill
we meets a gentleman on a horse, coinin' in
town ; I think lie wa.-; :i one legged man, as lie
had a crutch; he spoke tome: “Boy’s, which
away are yon all Irom I told him we had
been down to the lo.ver pail, of Georgia at
work. Heaved me then which away we was
a goin’. I told him we was goio’ up d oul Co
lumbia Com l House. He says to me: “Who
do you know up that way V” 1 told him i
eoohl’nt recollect the name i wanted to tell
him, and one ol the boys layiu’ on the other
side of the road made answer : “ Lambkin’s.”
He then axed me wliieh one ot the Lambkin
family J knowed. I told him Moses and Chas.
P. He then said : “ 1 would like to hire you ;
lam going round with a wheat thrasher.” 1
told him he could git one or two of ns, and In
told me to -meet him on Friday at M i s. Collins’;
on Friday, I think, i told him 1 would and
we parted, and directly after he starts down Hi
hill he meets Lewis Jones and John Williams ;
John had a gun; Lewis hail none. We pro
needed up ihe road John Driver, Nathan Col
lier, my sell and Aleck Griffin Lewis Jones
and John Williams was hehind. We had not
gone lar before, they—Lewis and John over- ,
took us ; none of us knew’em but John Dri
ver; so tiny I old me. John Driver throwed
his hand on John Wi.Hams’ shoulder and said :
“Oh! you old scoundrel, you ; it tikes one -
scoundrel to find out another in the dark.”
We coiuc near a grove, and there we made a
stop, and a.xed one another tlicit* business;
John Driver and John Williams, Hu y slopped
and talked; Driver tells Williams where lie
was agwine : “ We are agwine up here to Mr.
Moore’s ; lie’s got a store there, and if we eau’t
get'anytiling onlcn his store, we. can gil our
bags lull of chickens.” We go on up the road;
all the band v/as together, talking about what
they would do if Mr. Mome w.i; to eome out
ol the store ; Driver and Al. , l 'k _savs : “.AYlli’s..,
we’ll shoot him.” I said: “You would’ul
shoot with the guns as you got ’em loaded
now, would you V” They said : “If he eome
out, we would shoot right at him, for we
would kill him.” Then me and Lewis Jones
begged ’em not to do any such t hing as that;
if the man was to eome out not to kill him. f
They continued on to say’ they would he cer
tain U> kill him.
Wo sorter lugged back (me and Jones) a lit
tle Wt, not very far behind; Aleck ClriHitt stops
and axed us what was the matter ; 1 tips and
tells him 1 felt very much dissatisfied, and lie
axed “ What for V” I tells lmn the way they
was talking about killing folks ; then he say :
“ Now let me tell you one thing: il you don’t
come along it'll be worse for you • there’s two
in this parly wouhl’nt mind killing you no
more ’n they would killing a rabbit.” I axed
him if be really think they’d kill me if I stop
ped ; says he: “Yes, 1 kuow it.” 1 say:
“ What makes you think they would kill me?”
lie says : “ They would say right off, or think
il, if you stop and don’t go on, if there’s any
tiling of tlmt kind done you’ll tell it.” So 1
goes on with ’em then pretty cheerfully, mak
ing them believe l was in good heart; we goes
on up the road; l don’t knovv’xaetly how fur, and
we all makes a stop ; we lays down side of the
road, and they all consulted about this killing
matter; whilst we was eonsu Ring, me and
Lewis Jones commenced begging ’em again
not to do any such thing ns that. Lewis Grif
fin say : “ There’s no use to say another word ;
if he come out. or show his self, we will cer
tainly’ kill him.” John Driver says: “Yes,
we’ll be bound to kill him if he comes out.”
They consulted a little while longer; then
we went on up the road ; Aleck says “there is
the place where we are going;” we goes on up
to the place and finds out there was a wagon
there camped on the left hand side of the road
going from town ; a house and store was on
the right hand side ; when wc gets up to this
tvagon none of’em said anything; we passed
by, up the road about fifty yards and all stop
ped and laid down and consulted what they
should do about the wagon. John Driver,
Aleck <Ji i llin, Nathan Collins and John Wil
liams, said we’ll go back to the wagon and ax
the man il he is a man that attends to his own
business. Then me and Lewis Jones told them
not to trouble, not to hurt them, if they went
back ; they goes up to the wagon close enough
to see in it; they seen but one man laying
down in the wagon and one laying oil the
ground a little ways from the wagon asleep ;
John Driver and John Williams, and Aleck
Griilin, and Nathan Collier goes up each side
of the man that was laying down on the ground;
(me and Lewis was standing about three steps
from them,) wake up this inau ou the ground,
says tt> him when he gits up—sittiug up—John
Driver, himself, axed him if he “ was a man
that ’tends to his own business V” The man
said :“ he was a man that ’teuded to his own
business, lor it looks like it, you find me laying
down here asleep.” Then they ail left him and
come back towards town —down the road—
about fifty or sixty yards ; five on one side the
road and one on the other ; l was on the oppo
site side from them; 1 wanted to go to the well
and get a drink of water ; after gitling the
water i goes over where they were ; they con
sulted with themselves what they were going to
do. Lewis Jones rays, “Less go hae —that was
to town. John Williams says, "No; lam
going hack to that wagon and see if that man
has got any anus.” They all sot there a min
ute or two, but they all started along to the
wagon, wheu Williams got up to go. Lewis
and myself was a leetle hit behind. Aleck
says : “ 1 believe that 4—ml son of a b —tell
has been to that wagon and woke that man up,”
and says “we will go on up nearer and see if
lie has ; damn him, I’ll shoot him.” Then me
and Lewis says “No ; have no shooting.”
Aleck says : “ I don’t believe be is awake now.”
So all of us went on going up to tbe wagon ;
Aleck goes round next to where the old man
was lying down. Nathan Collier goes right up
behind the wagou. John Driver and Jobu
Williams goes around ou the right hand side
of the wagon. Going to the front of it, they
stands there. Me and Lewis Jones walks up
in about five steps of John Driver and John
Williams on the same side of the wagon.
Driver then taken his guu and tetched the gen
tleman in the wagon and woke him up. He
appeared to be pretty hard to wake. Jest as
he woke up he says : “ Boys, what time ol
night is it V” Nathan Collier says; “It was
about one o’clock.” Nathan axed him did he
have any arms ? He said no. Nathan ax’d
what he had in dat demijohn. He told Nathan
ho had molasses. Nathan told him yon must
have liquor, for I smell it. In this time the
man commenced to get up from where lie was
laying in the wagon. Nathan reached for the
demijohn ; as ho did so Lite man in the wagon
reached also. The man put his lniml ou it and
Nathan didn’t touch it.
The man in the wagon was by this time in
this position. [Here the witness placed him
self on Hits hands and knees. | 1 thought lie
was trying to git his arms, i! lie had any. Dri
ver and John Williams axed Him what he was
trying to get. He said: “Nothing.” In this
time up eome a man, walking from up the
road, who diil’nt belong to either of the par
ties. Aleck Griflin walks up before Him and
halts him. The man that was in the wagon
called for the man that was lying near by ; he
called him Claiborne; Claiborne rizand started
to him and got in two or three steps of ljie
wagon. Driver says to the man in the wagon :
“What’s that you got in your hand?” He
says; “ Nothing.” Driver punched His gun at
the min, who tried to snatch it, and the gun
struck the side of the wagon as Driver jerked
it back. The man says: “ You wouldn’t shoot
any one here, would you ?” and called ft r Mr.
Moore twice. The first call he give, John
Williams snapped his gun at him; the cap
popped aud the gun did’nt go otf. Immediate
ly Driver fired, as the man was calling for Mr.
Moore the second time. They all conic off
down the road, but Williams and Griffin, and
they went through the woods. Myself, Lewis
Jones, John Driver aud Nathan Collier come
the road all the way hack to town.
Answer to question by prosecution—
The muzzle ot Driver’s gun was about a foot
from the man’s body when he fired ; it sot the
man’s clothes on fire; t-lie guu was loaded with
small shot and big shot and wrought nails cut
up; I saw the shot and nails put in the guu ; J
didn’t see the powder put in; when the man
was shot he clamped his hands up to his side
and said “Oh Lord,” and dropped down ou His
alllours again; the shoutin’ frightened Ihe
mules; there was two mules; the white one
run off; we comes as far as Floyd Thomas'
house, leadin’ to Broad sired, and turned
there and went up Ihe road lliut bad to Battle J
Row, and taken the end which comes to town ; j
jest as we gets to Mr. Hick’s house the clock 1
strikes two; we pass Mr. Bird’s house near the 1
road, which leads out through Wood lawn ; |
we all parted here ; 1 saw Driver at his house <
next day ; the gun that Grillin had was a iuiis- '
ket, with part of the breech sawed off; 1 s:nv j
this gun at Missouri Walker’s house the next i
morning on the hill ; me and Lewis Jones and '
Driver and Collier consulted about the mailer; 1
Driver says: “ Poor man, its done and can’t lie ,
hoped, (helped) there’s uo use crying over spilt '
milk ;” Collier say’s “we must not talk about it
to otic another, much less to any one else, oi
it will leak out.” I said, “ sieli as that can’t (
be hidden, it will eome out if it takes ten years
to eome out.” Driver said, “It will never
come out 'lessen you tell it.” We thou sepa
rated ; 1 goes on home, lays down and goes to
sleep ; it was about three o’eloek when 1 laid
down; I gits up about seven, aud goes to Mr.
Sibley's, wlieic Missouri Walker lives, outlie
Band Hills; when I gits there I find Aleck
Griffin asleep; 1 did not say anything, lmt sot
about there till near twelve oYioek ; we hears
some one next to the fence calling; I gils up |
and goes out to see who it was; it. was Collier:
! goes huek and wake Griiiin up; wc steps off
iu the woods a tittle piece ; Collier says, “that .;
man is dead -the man what John shot is dead.”
[Objected to by the defense, ami not insisted ‘
on by the prosecution. | The killin' was im a
Wednesday night.; I don’t remember lliAilay
of the-nrewHi; itov.in fast month. f
Cross examined—My real name is l-pioeh
Emanuel; was horn in Virginia; never had
other name; been here about, six years; was '
sold by the Luring estate and purchased by .
Marshall, of this place; Collier ami Driver said f
it would not do lor all of us to go down the
street with guns; Aleck Griffin I old me that ‘
Nathan Collier, John Driver, himself and my- ]
self were to go up the road ; this conversation
took place at Sibley’s, on the hill ; Missouri J
Walker was prescut; it was the day before the i
night of the killing ; I eome by Collier’s house; i
Collier aud Grillin were there; the object was 1
to get chickens; they were to steal them ; 1 t
agreed to go with them after 1 knew their oh- i
jecl; l was opposed to carrying guns; 1 do
not know when or where they decided to carry
guns ; 1 found it out at Driver’s liou.se when I
asked if they would “ shoot a man with guns
loaded that way 1 had reference to the
charge; thought it would he sure to kill; 1 s
saw Driver discharge Hie gull and reload it; 1
lie put in a few pieces of cut wrought nails-- J
about % inch in teugth—with large and f
small shot, when they asked the man at tlie t
wagon if “he attended to his own business';” 1
That was the lorm o! question agreed on.—
They did not say what they would do in the
event those at the wagon were not colored. 1
exposed the killing of Price tlie next day; 1
told Lucy and Missouri Walker ; I did not tell
it as a secret; 1 told Hobby Fullerton and
asked his advice, two or three weeks ago. I <
could hear of it; I knew it was coming out; I *
told Mr. Christian last Tuesday week; Mr. *
Hicks asked me if I did not know something
about it; I told him l did ; I was troubled. I
did not know how to act without advice. I
have known Driver since April; I have never
been arrested for the offense; t lmd a conversa
tion witii Claiborne Page and old Mr. Price;
told them what I kneiy. I have had no “ iu- :
ducements” held out, to me; I don’t fully un- 1
derstand you; 1 thought ii 1 told all I would ;
be clear; Hobby Fullerton and Missouri Wal
ker gave me that advice ; I had determined to
expose it any how. It was a little after eight
o’clock when we left town.
By the Court—John Driver has a peculiar
voice; have noticed it. before.
Before the introduction of Enoch Emiuiiiel’s
testimony, Judge Hook gave notice that the
defense might move to strike his evidence out,
as being the confession of a co-conspirntor, and
hoped the Court would not object to hearing
I hat point argued, il he delayed it until Ihe
witness had testified. The Court announced it
would not.
1 he Court took a recess till tills morning at
nine o’clock.

Bogus Account op the Execution op
Maximilian.-. The New York Times of Mon*
day says :
A very small lml extremely wicked forgery
lias been perpetrated in Paris by tlie publica
tion in Ttyuro, July S, of a detailed account of
the trial and execution of Maximilian, which
purported to he transmitted from this conn try
hy cable, and copied from the Kspc, <inza, of
Querelaro. All the eireiinistauees of the atl'air
were given all ol them falsely, and yet so
adroitly, and with such knowledge of Mexican
atfairs. as ; > deceive and mislead -especially
under the circumstances of total ignorance
about the event that prevailed iu Paris. Maxi
milian was made to utter the most heroic
exclamations, ami give expression to the most
noble and touehing sentences, ns lie stood iu
the presence of death ; and a heart-rending- let
ter was given which purported to he written to
his wite Cailotta the night, before the execu
tion. TL»JF%Ie. tiling is a gross outrage upon
as upon decency, and should se
cure s'- amt publisher the severest
punif which tin- French law provides lor
joimi. One or more ot our
eymly published this atrocious lor
gery crediting it to flic. Mex lean
paper pulfWicd at. Querelaro, although it came
by mail li'tu Europe, and its false character
was (in thisVouutry) perfectly palpable.
Crop Pblosi’euts. — I The Talhotton Gazette
says: Col. T. R. Lumsden, of Talbot county,
lias just returned from a trip throngh Upson,
Pike, Spalding, Henry, DeKalli, Gwinnett and
White, lie. informs ns that the wheat and oat
crops of those counties were very good, and
tlie corn splendid—in fact, is good as it could
he. Cotton also looked well. Col. L. says
that wheat was selling in Gainesville, Hall
county, at $1 per bushel.
The same paper says Dr. Stiuson, an old and
successful planter oi Meriwether, informs us
that tlie corn and cotton crops of that comity
areas good as they have been iu years. He
thinks there will be three times as much corn
made in the county this year as there was last
year, and there is not near the quantity of land
planted.

Important Speech by the Holy Father.
1 have already mentioned that on Monday
evening the deputation of the Hundred Cities
of Italy presented a magnificent album to the
Pope. On that occasion Count Claudio Bos
cheUi read the address to his Holiness, which
it is not necessary to give, and the Pope replied.
The answer lias not yet been published, hut 1
have managed to procure a copy of it, and send
it entire, as if shows what the animus ot the
Pope is and to a certain extent what will be his
future policy, His Holiness, pointing to the
Castle St. Angelo, said :
“ There upon that pile stands tlie angel who
subdued the demons. He holds a sword re
stored to its scabbard, and, in like manner, I
announce this day the termination of the pesti
lence. (The allusion is to a tradition that on
tlie cessation of the plague, in the time of
Gregory, the Great, tlie angel sheathed his
sword.) Now, again, luethinks I see him re
turn the sword to its scabbard, as if in tlie act
ol obeying the Divine decrees, lor to-day com
mences an era of mercy. At the beginning of
this century, on this very day, one of my pre
decessors was dethroned, and" compelled to fly
into exile, pursued by those same enemies who
now, under the pretence of aggrandizing their
country, would root out of our hearts our holy
faith. On.ibis same day (for it began with their
earliest breath) liberating forces enter this Holy
City to disperse the enemies of God and his
Church, v. to in this city, the centre of the
Catholic Faifh, wished to destroy the kingdom
of Jesus Cliiist. Os ill omen to Rome had this
day been tailed. 1 say that the hour of its
fill lnph
Men have said that I hate Italy. No, Ido
not hate tier. J have loved her always and
have blessed her ; 1 have longed for her pros
perity, ana (Jod knows how I pray for her.
Let us pray for this, 1 must at present call it,
unhappy u Lon. That is not unity which is
founded or* egotism ; that unity is not blessed
which destroys charity and justice, which tram
ples under toot the right of all—of the minis
ters of God md of good Christians. They have
all for their meinics ; all stand in array against
them ; lor Hey have as their enemy God him
self. The lour has dawned, our triumph can
not fail, andlf it be delayed let us suffer in
peace the iiflictions of Divine justice. I am
moved by ttis demonstration of affection—by
the seutimetts which you have expressed to
me in yoor <wu name, and in the names of the
hundred eiliis ol Italy, and I declare to you all
my gratitudx my tendrrdess. I bless those
who have presented me this offering, and their
families. 1 dess you aud your families with a
special lieinliction, aud if any of them has
wandered -i a father, a sou, or a brother, de
ceived by falkeious ideas, has wandered into
tlie patli of error, let this benediction cause
him to retuH to tlie straight path. May this
benediction yoneverywhere; may it
follow you oi your return to your homes; may
itaeeoHipanyyou even to your last day. If, dur
ing your livo you find yourselves abandoned
by all, this boediotion will never forsake you.
I bless this lassie land, fruiflul mother ol so
many saints, which lias given to the church
and to HeavC so many heroes of sanctity and
justice. I puy to God to preserve her in her
ancient laitli, which lonns her greatest glory.
Again I hie* s you and your families, and he
this benediction a pledge to you iu the name of
God, that we may reach that blessed eternity in
which jpreflhaJ praise and thank God. Fare

PATENT UN I VERBAL
00TT0N TIE AND IRON HOOPS.
rp
_l_ HIS TIE, with the HOOP complete, weighs no
more than the usual rope used In haling cotton, and
lcoders an allowance for tare unnecessary. It looses
no slack while putting on, and is so perfect that the
necessity for heavy hoops, to make up lor deficiencies
in the TIE, is entirely obviated.
Can he sold by the pound or ton, as cheaply as the
heavy hoops and less perfect ties. Kucli and every
TIE is warranted perfect.
As an evidence of the estimation in which these
TIES are held, we herewith append the certificate of
the Agent of the Central Cotton Press in this city. If
a competent judge can be found nnywhere as to the
merits of Iron Ties, this gentleman may surely be so
considered, as he presses thousands of bales of Cotton
every year, and Ties of all patents are constantly pass
ing through his hands.
Omen of tub Central Cotton I’kbss, )
Savannah, May 27th, 1867. \
Messrs. K. W. Sims & (Jo.,
Agents for Dillon’s “ Universal Tit*,” Savannah.
Dkar Sirs : 111 my business of compressing Cotton,
I have had occasion to examine closely ail of the vari
ous Ties for iron hands used in lulling Cotton, and
pleasure in testifying to the superiority overall others
..r the <• UNIVERSAL TIE.”* It is as easily ad
justed and is much stronger than any other Tie.
A Tie that is not good at the Press is not good at
the Plantation, us nearly all the Cotton is compressed
at the Ports, and a weak Tie must then he replaced by
a good one at the expense of the planter. I have
never seen one of your TI KB break, though Ifpitehod
a hale of Cotton secured hy them out of a second
Story to llie ground without any break to the. fall.
Under these circumstances 1 unhesitatingly recom
mend the ” UNIVERSAL TIE ” to every Planter, as
combining the greatest simplicity, with unequalled
strength.
