Hood, yesterday, Foster Blodgett turn ed Frank Bland (for whom he was security on a bond to the Superior Court of this county)over to the county authorities. It will be remembered that we adverted to this bond as forfeited, a day or two ago, when speaking of Bland in connection with the express robbery. Tills will, in all probability, necessitate the Express Com pany to sue out a writ of habeas corpus, be fore the prisoner can be removed to Effing ham county, to answer the charges against him in connection with the late robbery, for which he lias been, arrested. Pardoned.— Starling Ferguson, (col.) who plead guilty, at the last session of the Superior Court of this county, to a charge of- larceny, brought by the Dorn Mining Company against him as a common carrier on the Savannah river, has had his tine and the costs in the case, amounting to about $2lB, remitted by Executive clemency.— His term of imprisonment, thirty days, having expired, and his Hue being remit ed, he was discharged from jail yesterday. Sunday Sciiooi. Teachers’ Associa tion. —The Sunday School Teachers’ Asso ciation meets this (Friday) evening, at 8 o’clock, in the Presbyterian Lecture Room, and, as the services for the occasion will be of a very interesting nature, it is to be hoped Sunday School teachers, and all in terested in the good cause, will take notice and cheer the Association by their presence. Lively and Busy Times in Macon. — The Telegraph says it has been a long while since so much work was being done in Ma con as now. Every builder is busy; car penters are hard to get; brick can uot be made fast enough to supply the demaud ; and between building new and renovating old houses, it seems as if the streets of Macon were turned topsy-turvy. Piles of brick, mortar and lumber are to lie seen cn nearly all of our principal thoroughfares, and the ring of the trowel and rasp of the saw are heard on all sides. John Ciiinaman as a Cook.—tA San Francisco letter in the St. LoHis Democrat says that John Chinaman is disposed, as a cook, to be economical —a virtue, he adds, which is rather apt to disappoint when it takes the form of frying cutlets and steaks In water in place of butter or fat. A Novel Pi. an to Kill tite Cotton Caterpillar. —A correspondent of the Sa vannah Republican , writing from Madison, Fla., has the following concerning a newly discovered plan to destroy the caterpillar oj) the cotton plant: “A photographist, by name H. B. McCal lum, 1 believe from Tennessee, experiment ed while here upon his theory of killing caterpillars. He, together with a few citi zens, visited the fields of S. M. McCoy, and Inglis and Thomas, used his vapor with so much success that he intends patenting his invention. “ A strong solution of chemicals are thrown upon the plant, killing the caterpil lar immediately, with no injurious effects to the plant nor to the laborers in the field. He is willing, he says, to inhale the vapor himself for an hour. “ The plants that he operated upon are not dead, but on the contrary are free from caterpillar. He has been studying his plan for three years, and has jnst had an oppor tanity of testing its feasibility. He intends visitiug Washington, and Hearn he offered a half interest for S3OO, but did not get a bidder. He left us last week. Citizens who witnessed his operation pronounce it a success. It is to be hoped that he will have machines, small though they may be, made immediately, as lie estimates that one hand can • destroy the caterpillar on ten acres of ground daily.” PHYSICIANS USE THEM IN THEIR PRACTICE. It is almost universally the'caste that Physicians condemn what are generally’ known as “ Patent Medicines.” Although DR. TUTT’S LIVER PILL IS NOT A PATENT MEDICINE, yet its composition (the result of years of study) is known only to himself, and so palpable are their valuable curative properties, that very many of the first Physicians in the South and West have adopted them in their practice, and recommend them to their patients. aulO-d&cl w It. is saiil that Calisaya Bark has a pecu liar efl'ect upon the liver, and guards the system against diseases by exposure and irregular diet. It is conceded that the great success of the wonderful Planta tion Bitters, which, previous to our late unhappy difficulties, was found in most Southern homes, was owing to the extract of Calisaya Bark which it contained as one of the principal ingredients. In confirma tion of this, we have heard one of our dis tinguished physicians remark that when ever he felt unwell from ordinary dietetic or atmospheric causes, lie invariably reliev ed himself by Plantation Bitters. We speak advisedly when we say we know it to be the best and most popular medicine in the world. M agnolia W ater. —Superior to the best imported German Cologne, and sqlfi at halt' the price. aulO d&clw The Lexington Homicide.—We take the following account of the trial of Dr. F. S. Lewie, at Lexington, 8. C., for the killing o. Elliott Drafts, in May last, from the correspondence *of iun Columbia I‘kasnix: “ Yesterday having been assigned for the trial of Dr. F. 8. Lewie (our representative in the State Legislature,) for the homicide of J. Elliott Drafts, in May last, (for the* seduction of Jjjs wife) and it being a very exciting trial, canspcj everybody to turn out. At an early hour tip! Coiff) House was crowded almost to suffocation.’ The jury was composed of eleven whites and oue colored. 'Die case was opened by Solicitor Talley. After the examination of the witnesses Oil the part of the State, the prisoner offering no evidence, Col. Simeon Fair opened the argument for the defense. He contended that (lie testimony, about which there was no dispute, nij being on the side of the prosecution, made q, vqsv of excuseable homicide. The prisoner yyas rightfully where he was to satisfy him self of the deceased’s intention of crimi nal intercourse with his (prisoner’s) wileT and although the provocation was great, yet the danger was so urgent that thg killing should be ascribed to the necessity, and pot the provocation, when made a case of self-defeßse. The prisoner had been warned of dcceijised’s threats against his life if he interfered with his (deceased’s) intercourse with prisoner’s wife. The prisoner had every reason to j apprehend from the manner of his approach, 1 as well as from threats, that deceased de signed to take prisoner’s life if he could. The prisoner held, when the deceased fired, that no alternative w r as left but to protect his own life by taking that of his adversa ry. The effort on the pa/ sos the prosecu tion to excuse the conduct of the decoded, by showing that the prisoner had a difficul ty with his wife some months ago, is add ing insult to injury. The man who could coolly calculate on the chance of seduction, where the wife was under the displeasure of her husband, was a cold-hearted mur derer—more than the beast of prey, who only devoured the body <>f }iis victim; whereas, the seducer makes life more dread ful than death itself, and should be shot down as a wild beast of prey. The ques tion, whether it was excusable homicide, in self-defense, was a question of fact for the jury; and the prisoner had no fears of the result. “ lie was followed by Mr. Talley, on the part of the State, wlio’ declared that the ground taken by the prosecution was that under-the law any provocation, however enormous, could only reduce an admitted killing to manslaughter; and that if the evidence proved that there was time be tween the provocation and killing for ‘ cooling,’ or if there was satisfactory proof of previous arrangement and prepa ration for the killing, it was murder. "Mr. Talley was replied to by Colonel Henry A. Meetze, in a brief'but sbt£ gygu meut. “ After a charge from fois Honor Judge Boozer, the jury retired, and after absence of fifteen minutes, returned q yerdict of ‘not. guilty'.’ “Thus has ended one of the most exciting trials that has ever taken place in our coun ty. 'Die popularity of the prisoner, as well as the deceased, and the circumstances which led to the homicide, rendered it so.. After the trial, Dr. L received the con gratulations of his friends.” Almost a Duel. —The curds which have recently appeared in the Mail, from several members of the medical faculty of this city, indicated a personal difficulty as the result of the language employed. It will be re membered that Dr. T. B. Ligou denounced Dr. R. F. Michel and supported his denun ciation in part by the testimony of Dr. J. F. Joltuston. In return, Dr. Michel paid no attention to Dr. Ligon, but denied the statements of Dr. Johnston. In response, Dr. Johnston refused to consider Dr. Michel’s denunciation until Dr. M. should purge himself of the charges made against him by Dr. Ligon. At this point the news paper discussion very properly stopped.— Dr. Michel, through Ids Mend, Dr. Bruns, of New Orleans, (who, in connection with Paul 11. Ilayne, of Augusta, Ga., were act ing as friends of Dr. M.,) on Monday chal lenged Dr. Johnston. We learn from street rumor that Dr. Johnston declined a chal lenge from Dr. Michel on the same ground upon which he had refused to notice M.’s card, namely, because lie considered that I)r. M. had uot purged himself of the charges made iu Dr. Ligon’e card. Upon this declension, it became the duty of Dr. Bruns, the friend of Dr. Michel, to take the place of his principal. Dr. Johnston ac cepted the challenge of Dr. Bruns. J)r. Bruus and his friends left Montgom ery for West Point on the Monday evening accommodation train. Dr. Johnston and his friends took carriages early yesterday morning for the purpose of getting on the West Point train at a distance from the city, in order to escape observation as much as possible. Fortunately (we say fotunately, because no cause of quarrel ex isted between Drs. Johnston and Bruns), the officers of the law got wind of the an ticipated duel.. Deputy Sheriff T. J. Scott aud his assistants left Montgomery on the yesterday morning’s train, and arrested the party of Dr. Joliuston as they got on the cars. The arrested party were bound over iu heavy bonds to keep the peace. Thus ends an unfortunate difficulty between citi zens of high character. [Montgomery [Ala.) Matt* Atlanta Correspondence. Atlanta, August 11,1869. Editors Constitutionalist: This is the day appointed for the regular meeting of the Georgia Teachers’ Associa tion. Several members responded to the call —not enough, however, to constitute a quorum. This difficulty was remedied by adopting a motion made by Mr. Mallon, of Savannah, to transform the assembly into a Teachers’ Convention. The old constitution was revised by a committee, consisting of Dr. Bonnell, D. W. Lewis, and Mr. Mallon—the latter as chairman. The temporary chairman of the conven tion, Dr. Tucker, of Penfleld, was elected President of the Association. Thus reor ganized, Dr. Bonnell and Means, Profs. Orr and Brown, were chosen Vice-Presi dents, Mr. Mallon, of Savannah, Secre tary, and Mr. Williams, of Macon, Treas urer. While the Committee on Amending the Constitution was absent from the hall, Dr. Means addressed the convention. His speecli was eloquent and instructive, as is always the case. lie appealed to the teach ers liefore him to stand fast, Avork faithful ly and hope on. “Failures are not de feats.” Intelligence and virtue Avill tri umph, no matter what the-odds. The Doctor has been teaching fifty years, having entered the field when in his 18th year. He has taught, during his lifetime, 8,000 boys and girls—or young men and avo vnen, as you please. When the election for officers was over, Prof. Orr, President of Southern M. F. Col lege, moved to hear a report on “ Public Education in Georgia," by Martin V. Cal vin, Principal of Houghton Institute, in your city. The report Avas, on motion of Dr. Bon nell, made the special order for considera tion to-morrow morning at 10 o’clock. Adjourned till 3 o’clock, p. in. The Association is Avell attended, and embraces many of the first teachers in the State. More anon. Mignonne. Banditti in the Cumberland Moun tains—A Ma& Kidnapped—s2,ooo Ran som Demanded. —We received yesterday the particulars of an affair of the most as tounding character, which, dkl not our in formation come from reliable sources, avc should certainly discredit. Our readers are doubtless aware of the exploits of the notorious desperado named Budd Carter, whom we have had occasion to mention a number of times during the last feAV weeks. Budd, it will be remem bered, was captured and confined in jail in Northern Alabama on the charge of horse stealing, having fled from Tennessee on ac count of his many outrages against law and order. It seems that he Avas last en gaged in an illicit distillery scheme in Cum berland county, whence he Avas run out by the officers of the Revenue Department, aud then, after plundering about in his tra\ r els South, finally brought up in North ern Alabama, where he stole a horse, was followed and captured. As soon as the United States authorities of Cumberland county liecame aware of the fact that Car tep was in durance they procured a requisi tion from Governor Senter, took Budd from jail, and brought him to Nashville for trial before the Federal Court. / Budd was cajled up before Judge Trigg, and the trial on the charge of illicit dis tilling commenced. As soon, however, as the civil authorities of Cumberland county heard that Carter was in the hands of the United. States officers, they sent down aud had him tefcen op, tin old indictment for murder there, lie was accord,ugly parried to Crossville and lodged in jail for a future hearing. This Avas about a month ago, and Budd has lain iu durance ever since, till last Tuesday night, when he broke jail and escaped. Immediately collecting a gang qf jjis friends, the desperado went oyef iifeo iyiiffp pqnqfy, find on Wednes day flip yijjamg rqdefip tj) the Jjousp of Mr. WWifloi Hill, a prominent pftizeij; who once arrested Carter, and, making him a prisoner, hurried away toward the moun tains.

Hill linijlfilf Jfeht Kiqrd to have his friends accede to tl)e demand, y.g }ie feared fqr his jlfe, and thought’ that if the ransom’money were paid, ndght he foul ly dealt with. Our readers can readily understand the consternation which this affair produced.
